[357] Sea cavalry
At the suggestion of the ghost mother, Xiao Shizhu still hesitated for a moment, and finally chose to stand up, and said urgently to Ying Ying, who was giving the ghost mother bazaar, "I'm sorry for you." After that, he turned and walked away quickly.
Handing over the ghost mother to Yingying, who is good at medical skills, Xiao Shizhu can also feel at ease for the time being. After calming down as he walked, he turned his head and looked back, glanced at the secret prison that was gradually moving away, and subconsciously quickened his pace.
After getting out of the secret prison of the Punishment Division and standing outside the waterfall, Xiao Shizhu took a deep breath and looked up at the mouth of the pit above his head, only to see countless birds and birds flying up in shock, flying aimlessly in a panic in the gray sky, and his heart suddenly tightened.
He clenched his fists and unleashed his Xuan power, and used his wind control technique to soar into the sky like an arrow from a string, and flew towards the mouth of the pit with a sharp whistle that pierced the air.
After a breath, Xiao Shizhu was already standing in the air above Yuque City, and only then did he look around the four directions under him, and an irrepressible anger in his chest churned again.
The earthquake had just stopped, and there were still dusty cities, and military facilities such as yamen, city walls, granaries, armories, and barracks were not affected by the earthquake because they were all protected by protective charms, but most of the houses collapsed in an instant, and many of the roads and stone steps were cracked.
Everywhere you can see the collapsed mansions and attics, the messy rubble and broken pillars, the frightened, disgraced, scarred hordes of ghosts, and the incessant wails and miserable cries that resounded through the heavens and the earth.
If Emperor Xudu was in front of him at this time, even if he was defeated by Xiao Shizhu, he would definitely fight hard. Until they are covered in bruises and covered in blood, they will kill each other.
Thankfully, the mountain did not cause landslides due to ground movement because of the palace protection charm and enchantment. The fertile fields outside the city, which had just undergone spring sowing, were also blocked by the surrounding city wall blessed by the protective charm because of the earthquake wave, and were not affected.
And the rescue has begun in an orderly manner, officials at all levels with troops and officials, as well as ghost doctors running around the city, with their hands stained with blood and dust, struggling to dig through the ruins.
Even all the students of the Four University Palaces, regardless of male ghosts and female ghosts, human souls and demon spirits also woke up one after another when they heard the sound of the horn blowing on the palace wall, carrying shovels and shovels, and quietly devoting themselves to the rescue work.
Such a united scene fell in his eyes, which somewhat made Xiao Shizhu's hanging heart a little more stable. He fixed his eyes on the rubble not far below, and after a childish face was submerged in it, he leaned forward without saying a word, and swooped down as far as he could see.
A soldier looked up to wipe his sweat, just in time to see Xiao Shizhu, who was covered in golden light and was particularly conspicuous, rushing down from the sky, as fast as a meteor falling to the ground; the soldier stood stunned for a moment, and then shouted happily: "It's the lord, it's our king!"
His loud shout immediately alarmed the surrounding people who were busy rescuing the ghosts. They all stopped and looked up, and saw that Xiao Shizhu had fallen into the ruins not far away in a moment, leaned over and quickly picked up the rubble, and lifted the broken wood that was pressed on the waist of the little ghost;
The cheers gradually echoed in the mournful cries and cries for help. Soon, the news of Xiao Shizhu's visit to the scene of the rescue spread in Yuque City, bringing hope in the darkness to this ghost town full of sad ruins.
"It's okay. Xiao Shizhu softly comforted this little ghost who was mottled with dust on his face and eyes after being carefully picked up by him, and after looking at him, he turned into a little ghost full of gratitude, and hurriedly looked around and shouted: "Ghost doctor, there is a little ghost here who needs treatment." ”
When the words landed, a ghost doctor had rushed over from a distance, and after Xiao Shizhu handed over the little ghost to him, he walked quickly towards the surrounding ruins......
Thousands of miles away, on the top of the Xudu Luoyu Mountain, the Emperor of Xudu was sitting quietly on the empty Heavenly Hall in the Northern Yin, exuding a black ghost aura full of anger from all over his body.
After a long time, those ghosts gradually faded. After taking a long breath, Emperor Xudu suddenly opened his eyes, and his eyes, which were still white on the outside and black on the inside, flashed with green light, like the fierce light in the eyes of bloodthirsty beasts.
Coldly and eerily.
After another moment, the green light disappeared, and Emperor Xudu's eyes returned to their former appearance, but there was a trace of fatigue on his face.
He controlled the souls of the two dead people in succession, and used his ghost to use the earth movement technique, which made every inch of muscle in his body full of exhaustion and faint soreness.
Emperor Xudu tilted his head to the left and right, and after moving his muscles and bones, he raised his eyes to look at the blue sky in the distance outside the door, and was stunned.
Through the green pothos eyes, seeing Xiao Shizhu's anxious appearance, although his face was a little dull, a trace of long-lasting pleasure rose in his heart.
After a long time, the faint stunned in the eyes of Emperor Xudu slowly turned into the cold glow of the past, he settled down, and shouted loudly outside the palace gate: "Xuan Gong Mingyi." ”。
Outside the main hall, the castrated palace slaves immediately sounded, shouting one after another screaming and whispering, with the cool and refreshing mountain breeze gradually moving away.
After a long time, a human soul with an empty right arm came from a distance, rushed to the entrance of the hall and stood still, and quickly put it on his body with his only remaining left hand.
This ordinary-looking human soul, after standing still in the middle of the main hall, bent his knees at the shadows that could not be illuminated by the light of the dark sun in the depths, and bowed respectfully after kneeling: "Slave Gong Mingyi has seen Your Majesty. ”。 Echoes echoed over the silent halls around them, especially loud.
"Get up and speak. Emperor Xudu, who hid his whole body in the shadows in the depths of the hall, and couldn't even see his face very clearly, said softly.
Gong Mingyi then sighed softly and slowly got up.
"The Southern Expeditionary Army was defeated on Shuoyue Island, and the Night Wandering God was killed in battle, presumably your Tianlu Pavilion has already received it. Emperor Xudu paused, and continued to ask in the cold and calm tone of the past: "Have you seen the recital?"
Gong Mingyi was stunned, although since the last summons, Emperor Xudu had allowed him to go to Tianlu Pavilion to copy and write, and there were more opportunities to get close to the other party, but he still couldn't figure out the temper of Emperor Xudu.
Today, he was suddenly summoned again, and asked what the meaning of this matter was, Gong Mingyi still couldn't guess the other party, so he only dared to tremble slightly and the corners of his mouth were silent for a moment, and then cautiously returned: "The slave has seen this watch when it was recorded, but he has not seen the contents. ”。
"The commander was killed, and the millions of troops only came back alive and more than 300,000. Emperor Xudu, who raised his eyebrows, suddenly snorted angrily, and a dark wind suddenly swept around him, whining and screaming. The entire hall became cold after a few short breaths, and Gong Mingyi was also frightened and silent.
"You say, is this a shame for me?" and then Emperor Xudu asked in a deep voice. There was also a fierce murderous aura on his body, which made Gong Mingyi, who was standing not far away, a little out of breath.
"No, it's not. Gong Mingyi, who was full of excitement, every inch of muscle in his body stiffened, and he quickly thought and replied in a trembling voice: "If it is really the defeat of the commander's fallen army, it will only be a shame for the court and His Majesty, but the enemy is too cunning, and Lord Night Wandering God is too light on the enemy." ”。
I kept my head down when I spoke, like a child who had done something wrong, and didn't dare to raise my head.
"Fart!" Emperor Xudu flicked his sleeves, and after collecting the cold wind and murderous aura that was blowing indiscriminately in the hall, he said coldly: "I sent you here to ask you to give advice, not to listen to you compliment me here!"
"Yes. The murderous aura suddenly subsided, and Gong Mingyi secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but he still didn't dare to raise his head. But after a little thought, he was not stupid, and he vaguely understood that Emperor Xudu wanted a way to take revenge on Xiao Shizhu.
Once Xiao Shizhu is mentioned, in the soul of this person who used to be only smart, there are even more cleverness. After thinking for a while, he slowly spoke under the waiting of Emperor Xudu: "If Your Majesty wants to sanction Xiao Shizhu, why don't you attack Shuoyue Island again?"
As soon as these words came out, Emperor Xudu, who was still full of anger, was suddenly stunned, and a trace of uncertainty flashed in his eyes; it was Gong Mingyi who reminded him that Xiao Shizhu would not care about the meaning of Shuoyue Island to him, so why did he want him to repeat the mistake of the past and attack Shuoyue Island again today?
The suspicious Emperor Xudu pondered for a moment before holding back his suspicions and asked curiously, "Why is this?"
"First, even though Xiao Shizhu is treacherous, the garrison sergeants on Shuoyue Island must be proud to win. After all, they had defeated the invincible army that had swept through the underworld for thousands of years, and this pride would naturally be there. In this way, the defense will inevitably be invisibly lax. Gong Mingyi, who lowered his head and continued to maintain a deferential appearance, tried his best to suppress the excitement surging in his chest, and after his eyes flashed inadvertently, he mustered up his courage and smiled lightly: "Second, after the protracted war that lasted for a month, the defenders of Shuoyue Island and the reserves and materials are declining rapidly, and there must be a void in defense. And as far as the minions know, the Nine Shadows Kingdom and the Southern Barbarian Du Ziren are still in a fierce war, and the reserves in the country must be extremely depleted. ”。
After finishing speaking, Emperor Xudu was still silent, Gong Mingyi stood silently, and the two ghosts did not squeak, and the hall fell into silence.
Gong Mingyi was right, the Nine Shadows Kingdom was bound to be empty at this time, and it was difficult to insist on fighting on two fronts. Moreover, Emperor Xudu himself knew that he had just used the green bead physique to perform the earth movement technique on Yuque City, and at this moment, Xiao Shizhu must be busy with the earthquake or saving the ghost mother.
The Northern Yin Dynasty was strong, even if it was secretly destroyed by Xiao Shizhu, it was not able to damage the foundation, and there was still military rations to adjust, and it was not difficult to launch a rapid invasion.
"The analysis is very thorough, although you kid is not a ghost male, but he is also a ghost talent. Emperor Xudu pondered for a moment, and a trace of appreciation suddenly appeared in his eyes, and then he slowly got up, and with an interested gaze, he looked Gong Mingyi in front of him up and down for a while, paced around behind the other party, stood with his back to his hands, and looked at the sky in the distance At the same time, he opened his mouth and asked slowly: "Then do you think I should get rid of that sailor and army to attack?"
A few ghost cars flew down from the roof, stood in front of the temple gate, poked their nine heads curiously, looked into the hall, and paced away after a few screams.
The empty hall fell into silence again.
"Considering that the terrain of Shuoyue Island is relatively special, and large warships cannot directly attack the edge of the island due to the many rock pillars on the sea, Your Majesty should use the most elite naval cavalry in the Northern Naval Division to fight this battle. Gong Mingyi hesitated for a moment and said unhurriedly.
