The sky darkened quietly unconsciously, and Gong Mingyi's big tent was overflowing with the last sunset afterglow, sprinkled with dark red.

Kui Wood Wolf turned his head and saw that the Ghost Golden Sheep's body had stopped trembling. And the other party's face with sheep's horns and a long beard is full of ruthlessness and ferocity in indifference.

The scarred eyes of the Kui Timber Wolf twitched violently.

It was the first time he had seen this colleague of his for so many years, showing such a ferocious and hideous look. Soon, Kui Mu Wolf's eyes showed an incredible look, and he asked the ghost golden sheep: "You want to abandon our wounded soldiers?"

The ghost golden sheep did not rush back, but silently nodded his head, and the hideousness and indifference on his face remained unabated.

Under the dark red afterglow, a resolute look slowly appeared on the face of the ghost golden sheep. The eyes of the Kui Mu wolf, who twitched out of the corners of his eyes, showed unbearability.

A puzzled look also appeared between his eyebrows.

Kui Mu Wolf couldn't understand that this ghost golden sheep was also a ghost who loved soldiers like children in the past, why did he want to abandon the lives of soldiers in exchange for his own lives at this critical moment?

The more Kui Mu Wolf thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, and when he couldn't figure it out, the anger in his chest grew, his clawed fists clenched angrily, his fingertips were deep in the flesh of his palm, and he couldn't wait to step forward and punch the ghost golden sheep's mouth and nose a few times.

"If you break it, you will die. At this moment, the ghost golden sheep finally spoke: "The last general is willing to stay and live and die with the soldiers of the broken army." It will definitely be able to ensure that the marshal will take the main force of our army and smoothly withdraw to Liutianzhou. ”。

When the ghost golden sheep said this, he smiled faintly when he was stunned, his face was already full of relief, and then he took out a crystal clear jade pendant from his arms, handed it to the wolf claws of the Kui Wood Wolf, and solemnly entrusted: "My trip to this expedition is known to be the end of certain death, and it is inevitable that the soul will be scattered." I'm tired of my brother, give this jade pendant to my children in the Northland, so that the children can have a thought. At the same time, I told them that I was not afraid of death. ”。

"Please give the order. Kui Wood Wolf was startled, and when he was stunned, the ghost golden sheep turned around again, bowed to Gong Mingyi, who was distressed, and said categorically: "The last general is willing to shed blood for the Beiyin Dynasty, and cut off the rear for your main army, so that our dynasty can keep the green mountains without worrying about no firewood, and there is still hope of killing back and stepping on Shuoyue Island and the Nine Hidden Kingdoms." ”。

The Ghost Golden Sheep knew that the attack would definitely die, although this could kill some of the ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom and weaken the military strength of the Nine Shadows Kingdom a little. However, if one thousand enemies are killed and eight hundred are lost, the Xudu army will also be killed or injured by hundreds of thousands of troops, and the military strength of the Northern Yin Dynasty will inevitably collapse in the short term.

What's more, Gong Mingyi can really fight and is a fierce general. The defeat was nothing more than Feitian's betrayal being caught off guard, and the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom was too well armed. And thousands of troops are easy to get, and it is difficult to find a general, and it is also the same reason that the ghost golden sheep wants Gong Mingyi to leave.

Gong Mingyi's one-armed fingertips suddenly shook, in the past, he would always feel that it was natural to sacrifice his ghost to achieve any of his goals, but in the matter of dealing with Xiao Shizhu, the ghost golden sheep took the initiative to ask for help, and voluntarily stayed behind in exchange for the vitality of a few of their ghost soldiers and ghost generals, but Gong Mingyi suddenly had mixed feelings in his heart.

Any ghost in this big tent knows that the ghost soldiers and ghost generals who stay behind will definitely die. They slaughtered so many ghost soldiers in the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and turned all the lands on Shuoyue Island, except for Xiaoyu Mountain City and Yuren Village, into scorched earth where no one survived, and the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom would never let them go.

But after proposing to cover the retreat of the main force, with the courage to stay and sacrifice, there is only a ghost.

After meeting Xiao Shizhu and breaking his arm, Gong Mingyi, who didn't believe in benevolence and morality, suddenly believed in morality again in his heart at the moment when the ghost golden sheep took the initiative to ask for help.

It's just that this thought just passed in a flash, and soon, Gong Mingyi was not distressed and helpless, and when his frowning brows were stretched, a cold glow covered his facial features.

The look in his eyes had calmed down, and he didn't think much about it and said to the ghost golden sheep: "Okay, this is what will be done for you." The main army prepared to retreat secretly, and the ghost golden sheep led the remaining troops to resist stubbornly. ”。

When Gong Mingyi said this, he also secretly told himself: I must live and use all means to survive in order to have the opportunity to fight Xiao Shizhu again.

Since the ghost golden sheep took the initiative to ask Ying to sacrifice himself in exchange for their lives, Gong Mingyi would naturally fulfill him without hesitation.

As soon as these words came out, Kui Timber Wolf was so shocked that he clutched the jade pendant carved with two vivid images and cute children and mothers shuttling through the grass, and suddenly stepped forward and retorted: "Dashuai, if you want to stay, you will stay, you are an example for us and the ghost soldiers." Or I, a ghost who has not yet married, has no children and no daughters. Didn't you let the ghost golden sheep, a ghost with a family, leave behind, and tear his home apart alive?"

"What's more, it hasn't reached the point of exhaustion yet, and you abandon your comrades so unthinkingly, won't your heart hurt?"

As soon as these words came out, the other ghosts were shocked, and the ghost golden sheep hurriedly went to grab the Kui Wood Wolf and asked him to stop cursing.

They all knew that Gong Mingyi was moody and ruthless, for fear that this Kui Timber wolf would anger the other party and die. When everyone was about to intercede for Kui Mu Wolf, Gong Mingyi asked unhurriedly: "Do you think Ben Shuai doesn't want to stay? Do you think Ben Shuai is unkind and unjust?"

"Isn't your heart flesh and blood, isn't it handsome? Won't you feel sorry for those sergeants who are about to die?" Gong Mingyi, who finished asking this, stood up, trembled with excitement, and then said: "How can this general not know that staying is death? But if I die, if you die, who should Your Majesty send as a general in the future, and then come to quell the rebellion of the Nine Shadows Kingdom and kill all these rebels? We are ghost soldiers and ghost generals with combat experience between the imperial court and the army of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Do you expect us to die, and then we can't bring back any combat experience back to the imperial court, so that the ghost soldiers of the Six Heavens Continent behind us will be defeated like we did this time?"

Gong Mingyi's eyes were staring directly, and there was a continuous questioning of the Kui Wood Wolf, who was originally angry, was suddenly stunned, and he stayed where he was, speechless.

The one who had been prepared to continue questioning and cursing also swallowed back when he reached his mouth.

He suddenly saw the tears flashing in the corners of Gong Mingyi's eyes, as well as the unwillingness and heartache hidden in the tears.

"Ben Shuai's lifelong ambition is to watch Xiao Shizhu, a traitor, fall to the ground. Gong Mingyi, who was secretly speaking, closed his eyes and squeezed tears, sighed for a long time, and then said slowly in a weak voice: "If Xiao Shizhu is dead, Ben Shuai doesn't need to be reminded by your Kui Wood Wolf, and he will take the initiative to stay and change your life......

The cloudy morning light illuminates the entire land of Huangquan.

The morning breeze was refreshing, leaving a slight coolness after passing through the Nine Springs Valley, dispelling the drowsiness on the faces of the Huangquan ghost soldiers who were ready to go.

The prisoners of war have been released, and seven of the eight kings of Huangquan have been ambushed, and the news that only one king Xunxiang has been put into Xiao Shizhu's command has spread throughout Huangquan Middle Earth in just a few days.

At the same time, it was spread everywhere, and Xiao Shizhu agreed to the policy of seeking incense and surrendering guns and not killing.

Most of the ghost soldiers in various places laid down their weapons and surrendered to the army sent by the Queen of Huangquan, and also handed over the city and pass to be received by the Huangquan ghosts.

The overall situation has been decided, and Xiao Shizhu is getting closer and closer to returning to the Netherworld. Unable to stay in the Nine Springs Valley all the time, he decided to lead his troops and set off and rush back to the Yellow Springs Holy Land to bid farewell to the Queen of Yellow Springs. If you can, by the way, borrow reinforcements for the purpose of his trip.

Xiao Shizhu, who was dressed lazily, walked out of the door and stood in the shadows outside the main hall, bathed in the rich yin qi of the early morning, and suddenly felt refreshed.

"Father-in-law, the vanguard army is ready. Shi Cianming took the girl's little hand, walked to Xiao Shizhu, and replied, "We can pull it out in a while." ”。

Xiao Shizhu nodded and looked downward, saw the small hands of the two ghosts holding together, and deliberately joked: "Shi Cianming, you are becoming more and more disagreeable. Why? Bullied me for not bringing my wife, and deliberately showed affection in front of me, right?".

As he spoke, he immediately put on an angry look. His troubled appearance really looks like his life stone cassia at first glance.

But the female lu was so red that he said it, and when she was so shy that she buried her head and hung her head, she broke free from Shi Cianming's hand.

"Take it up, tease you. Xiao Shizhu immediately said with a smile.

"My lord, the flagpole is ready. At the same time, the national teacher Yingying also held the spirit snake staff and walked slowly in front of Xiao Shizhu with Xunxiang: "In addition to the ghost heads of the six ghost kings, Xunxiang's letter of surrender and persuasion written on the long step are also hung on these six-pole banners. ”。

"Leave it to Shi Cassia and Nu Lu, and their vanguard will carry these six banners to open the way for our return journey. Xiao Shizhu didn't think much about it, so he said to the national teacher Yingying: "There must be a stubborn ghost soldier in this Yellow Spring. If they want to ambush us, they will have some scruples when they see these big flags, and they will retreat, so that our return journey will be much smoother. ”。

Immediately after that, he turned his head to Shi Cassia and told Shi Cassia and Nu Lu, who were going to be the vanguard commanders, "But you still have to be cautious, there is no shortage of outlaws in any world. When you encounter such a ghost soldier, you don't have to be soft, give me a hard beating. ”。

"Yes. After putting away his smirk and cheering up his spirits, Shi Cassia replied sonorously, and returned the same way with the female reel, and went to make the final preparations for the return trip.

Xiao Shizhu leaned on the golden pillar in front of the hall, clasped his hands in front of his chest, and quietly waited for the return trip.

"My lord, I don't think I can be so hasty when I look for incense. After watching the Nulu and Shi Cassia Ming drift away, Xun Xiang, who had not spoken, finally opened his lips slightly, frowned and said to Xiao Shizhu: "If the plan brought by the ghost envoy has not been successfully implemented, then the implementation of this plan will definitely be implemented when you return." ”。

The morning breeze is blowing, and the ears and temples are light, bringing a faint fragrance.

Xiao Shizhu hummed disapprenorantly, closed his eyes slightly, and recuperated, planning to take advantage of this to have a standing retreat.

In the past few days, he has also thought about it, if Emperor Xudu has any action, but he has not seen any danger to his life so far, it can only be that Emperor Xudu's plan has either not been implemented, or has been implemented, but he has survived the difficulties safely.

What he cared about the most, and what he could think of Emperor Xudu's plan, was nothing more than the iron pestle and blood talisman that the Heavenly King used to deal with him. But the iron pestle has been destroyed by the national teacher Yingying and his troops, the blood talisman has also been wiped, and the Heavenly King is dead, I am afraid that there are no ghosts in this yellow spring at all, and he can no longer implement the kind of magic and ghost magic that absorbs his mysterious power.

Xiao Shizhu didn't believe that he would be in any danger on the way back.
