The wind howled, rolling up more sand, and flew into the house to gather and disperse with the wind.

The horror on Xun Xiang's face was a little heavier, obviously, thanks to Xiao Shizhu's affirmative answer. The hundred-mile swamp behind this pass has brought them these ghosts of Huangquan, and the psychological shadow is really not small.

Xiao Shizhu didn't care, and said slowly: "The world created by these ancient gods is so wonderful, just as an old saying in the world says - where poisonous snakes are infested, there must be an antidote within seven steps. In fact, all things in heaven and earth are mutually reinforcing, and so is the geographical environment. ”。

"What do you mean by that?" Xun Xiang's worry turned into curiosity, and she, who had never been to the world, also looked at Xiao Shizhu tightly and asked urgently.

That is to say, you have only seen the danger of the swamp before your eyes, and you will naturally feel frightened and fearful about it. Xiao Shizhu smiled, sat on the ground and then signaled to the national teacher Yingying, went to close the door first, and said: "But in the danger, there must be vitality, in order to conform to the way of yin and yang between heaven and earth, in order to form mutual restraint." Just like the south of this Yellow Spring, looking around, most places are indistinguishable from the vast desert of the southeast and northwest, and there are often winds and sands in all directions, and the wind and sand are all over the sky like rain, and the clouds and mist are obscure. But there are also many places where wind and sand cannot be intruded, and which have existed for thousands of years on this barren wilderness that has been cut off from people, and which have remained unchanged for thousands of years, and have become the best shelter from the wind, haven't they?"

He said it lightly, and completely understated the terrain of the southern part of Huangquan.

The national teacher Yingying also closed the door, and the sound of wind and sand was much quieter.

"Huh?" Xun Xiang nodded thoughtfully, but a puzzled look quickly appeared on her face.

Xiao Shizhu still had a smile on his face, and then said: "I believe that in that swamp, there is also life. And I already knew how to get out, when I was in the Strange Stone Valley, I knew how to go when I heard Ke Yun say that the dead wood in this swamp had been petrified and was as hard as iron. ”。

But he said half of it and left half of it. But it made Xun Xiang a little confused, I don't know what Xiao Shizhu said about these strange dead trees in the swamp?

Naturally, his face was also at a loss.

Xiao Shizhu didn't seem to want to completely break it at all, and then he didn't say much, just laughed and didn't say anything. Let the fragrance be pondered by himself, but he just picked up the kettle on his waist after a while, and drank the cool water in the kettle leisurely.

"Seek incense, and soon you'll know how we're going to get through the swamp. Ying Ying, the national teacher who closed the door, walked over, and after comforting Xun Xiang, who was thinking hard and meditating, she faced Xiao Shizhu and asked, "Lord, the chasing soldiers are close behind." Do you set a trap before entering the swamp? ”。

Although the wind and sand will take away their smell and footprints, as well as other traces. But the pursuers behind them were not far away, and even though there was no trace of them, they knew their destination, and they would definitely chase them here.

The national teacher Yingying still felt that leaving some kitkat traps could hinder the enemy's goodness.

"I've thought of it for a long time. Xiao Shizhu, who slowly closed the lid of the pot, smiled faintly, and a cunning appeared from the corner of his raised mouth: "I have privately explained to the five heads and the female fish, as well as Shi Cianming, they will lead the army to lay a trap here after solving the defenders here, as long as the enemy dares to chase after them, they will inevitably be damaged." ”。

In this case, the national teacher Yingying just nodded silently and said no more.

"Let me rest for a while and wake me up before I go. Xiao Shizhu said and stood up, still calmly stepping on the blood-colored powder all over the ground, slowly walked to the corner of the wall and sat down, leaning against the wall and slowly closing his eyes.

After a while, there was a snoring sound in the watchtower, one after another......

On the wilderness more than 50 miles south of the pass conquered by Xiao Shizhu, the wind and sand are also raging, and the flying sand is dark under the rocks.

More than a dozen Huangquan cavalry gathered together, forming a long dragon-like procession, winding for several miles, advancing against the wind in the strong wind.

These more than ten armies were some of the pursuers sent by Queen Huangquan. They searched for Xiao Shizhu's traces all the way and chased them closely. First, they gathered near the Strange Stone Valley, and after discovering the corpses and bodies of the army under Xiaoyue's command, they also found the footprints and traces of Xiao Shizhu's departure, and traced them all the way.

On the way, these more than a dozen cavalry often encountered the deadly traps set by Xiao Shizhu's people, which had slowed down their movements a lot. Gradually, it also opened a lot of distance from Xiao Shizhu. Now that the wind and sand are blowing, the army is even more difficult in the wilderness.

They were all cavalry, and in the powerful wind and sand, their marching speed was on par with that of the infantry.

After a long march on the deserted wilderness, the army suddenly made a detour to the west, looking for scattered dead trees swaying in the strong wind, and after walking for miles, they came to a barren mountain in the wilderness.

On this barren hill that stands tall in the wind and sand, you can faintly see the walls made of mud and the houses made of stone, standing proudly in the mountains.

It has formed a large-scale and majestic city.

A strong wind swept through the mountain city, making a mournful and mournful sound of the wind, like a scream, like a strange scream, which made people listen to it creepy.

When the army came to the bottom of the mountain, they immediately followed the unguarded and wide open city gate, and poured into the mountain city, and then stationed in the unguarded houses and stone tunnels in the mountains.

The wind and sand are getting bigger and bigger, and most of the soldiers in the army, even if they have Dingfeng beads on their bodies, they can only carry one with each soldier, which does not play a big role. I had to find a shelter nearby and stationed in it, waiting for the wind and sand to stop before continuing the pursuit.

The leaders and generals of the more than a dozen cavalry teams gathered in the largest stone chamber in the city, munching on dried meat around the lit bonfire and drinking the clear well water from the well in the stone chamber in the city.

All the ghosts in this room are strange-looking, and none of them look normal. But they are all the more capable generals under Queen Huangquan.

Originally, they were all tasked with guarding the frontier and fortresses, but now that the threat of the ghost soldiers in Xudu no longer existed, Queen Huangquan did not hesitate to transfer them, that is, Xiao Shizhu must die in Huangquan.

"It's not a good time. One of them, wearing a nine-foot-long black-headed dog demon with a black crown and golden armor, had red eyes, chewed a few times and swallowed the dried meat in his mouth, and scolded angrily: "Otherwise, we will definitely have caught up with Xiao Shizhu now." ”。

"The weather in the south has been really abnormal these days. Under the flickering of the bonfire, several shadows shook a few times on the face of the square-faced man with a long beard in a red robe and a black gauze hat across from him, and a worried look appeared between his eyebrows.

"In the past, after the wind and sand, there was at least a gap of three or five days and clear good weather, but these days are a series of wind and sand. It's only a few hours or a day. The man said thoughtfully, and suddenly felt that the bonfire in front of him was scorching his whole body, so he involuntarily unbuckled his belt and took off his red robe, revealing his hollow and transparent, crystal-like chest and abdomen.

The ghost put down the red robe like a flame, and then said worriedly: "It is said that Xiao Shizhu is the real son of God, this weather will not be God to help him escape, deliberately so abnormal, right? ”。

As soon as the words came out, when the words landed, the black-headed dog demon shouted again: "Don't talk nonsense, say something that will make others want to destroy your own prestige." If he were the son of God, how could he escape so badly?".

His selective blindness, ignoring Queen Huangquan's despicable methods, and his contemptuous words, were immediately recognized by most of the ghosts in the room, and they all nodded their heads in agreement.

"As soon as the wind and sand stop, I'll chase after it, and behead all the ghosts who made traps. The more the black-headed dog demon spoke, the more proud he became, as if he had already won the battle, and he didn't put Xiao Shizhu in his eyes, his eyebrows flew and danced: "Then tie up Xiao Shizhu and bleed, and finally throw the corpse into the wilderness, and let him dry into a mummy, do I think he still dares to call himself the son of God without shame?"

As soon as this remark came out, it naturally won the approval of most of the ghosts in the house, and they were all excited, and they threatened to break Xiao Shizhu's body into ten thousand pieces.

When dealing with the Eight Kings of Huangquan and the ghost soldiers of Xudu, I had never seen them so confident and courageous. Only a few ghosts, including the male ghost who took off his red robe, remained silent and preoccupied.

Although they listened to Queen Huangquan's orders and hated Xiao Shizhu, they remained calm and kept them sane. Knowing that if Xiao Shizhu was really so easy to deal with, Xiaoyue and the army under his command would not be wiped out.

They can't be as arrogant as other ghost generals, and they can't extricate themselves from the fantasy that they can defeat Xiao Shizhu with all ease, and they still enjoy it.

There was no excitement on his face, only a vague worry that appeared inadvertently.

"As soon as this wind and sand stops, we will divide our troops into two roads and pursue them all the way along the western edges of this hundred mile swamp. Until the whereabouts of Xiao Shizhu are found. After a long time, the black-headed dog demon took out the animal skin map in his arms, unfolded it and hastily glanced at the lines and landscapes on the map, and then shouted excitedly: "Once we catch up, we will kill him and turn over on his back." ”。

Under the shaking of the bonfire, most of the ghosts responded in unison, and the excitement on their faces did not decrease but increased.

The red-robed male ghost was still frowning. After these ghosts were excited for a long time and calmed down a little, they slowly spoke, and said thoughtfully: "It is rumored that Xiao Shizhu, the son of God, has strange thinking and can always come up with unexpected countermeasures. Therefore, I suspect that Xiao Shizhu's escape from this road must have risked into the Baili swamp, and he will never take a detour north along the edges of the east and west sides. We might as well go straight north of the swamp and set up an ambush to wait for the rabbit, but we can catch him off guard. ”。

This is the result of his careful consideration, as far as Xiao Shizhu is concerned, this ghost who can defeat the ghost soldiers of Xudu and the Eight Kings of Huangquan in half a year is often unusual. Maybe the Baili Swamp is in Xiao Shizhu's eyes, and there is nothing to be afraid of at all.

The demons were stunned, and there was a dead silence in the stone room.

I don't know how long it took, until the firewood licked by the flames in the bonfire cracked in the red, and at the same time burst out with a crackling sound, breaking the silence, the ghost generals who had underestimated Xiao Shizhu before laughed in unison.

The black-headed dog demon laughed the loudest, and after laughing, he looked at the male ghost who was ignoring the ridicule and was silently putting on a red robe: "Brother, how could you guess that Xiao Shizhu would pass through that death zone? ”。
