The light of the cloudy sun shone through the faint white clouds floating on the blue dome of Middle-earth, shining on the earth. The formation was neat, and the mighty Huangquan ghost soldiers were striding south in the cloudy light.

In winter, the cloudy light of Huangquan is also rich in yin, not very hot, but a little chill in the cloudy light, and the cold slowly overflows, making the ghosts refreshed for a while.

It's just that the spears in their hands are already shining in the light of the cloudy sun, which is very dazzling.

Xiao Shizhu, who was riding on Dangkang's back, clamped his legs and clutched the reins with his hands, panting roughly.

The sudden and inexplicable anxiety in his heart made him nervous, and the feeling of tightness in his chest and the discomfort of suffocation followed, making him restless.

"Lord, what's wrong with you?" Yingying, the inseparable national teacher by her side, immediately sensed the change in Xiao Shizhu's mood, frowned at the moment, and hurriedly asked in a whisper.

Under the cloudy day, the breeze suddenly rose and headed towards Xiao Shizhu. After blowing him all over, he was a little refreshed. The inexplicable chest tightness and uneasiness, as well as the tension brought by the whole body, suddenly disappeared a little.

Xiao Shizhu was about to tell the national teacher Yingying what was wrong with him, when suddenly his eyes went dark, and then he instinctively closed his eyes, and a terrifying picture appeared in his mind.

He saw hundreds of supernatural ghosts, and the ghost qi with faint mystical power in his body was continuously injected into the thick blood mist surrounding them. A red blood mist was filled with pungent blood, and Xiao Shizhu saw a strange-looking beast soul lying in the depths of the red mang.

It was a deformed beast soul he had never seen before, with five thick, long, hook-like claws on each of its limbs, shaped like a hook made of steel, and glowing with cold glow in the blood. The beast was like a tiger, but it did not grow hair, but was covered with hard scale armor, and it did not have a tiger head, but a cat head the size of a pumpkin. On its back, two pairs of wings composed of black membranes sprouted, which were now slightly extended. The tail behind it was not a colorful tiger tail, but a snake tail covered with cyan scales, hanging down on the ground behind it. And under its abdomen and on the skin of its ribs, there is a head full of human souls. Up and down the body, there is also a strong ghost aura after marriage, forming a dark spirit barrier that gathers but does not disperse, and is close to the body.

Prior to this, whether it was from living creatures or ancient books, whether it was in the human world or the underworld, or in the Yellow Spring where he was now, Xiao Shizhu had never seen this strange deformed beast soul.

After a closer look, Xiao Shizhu felt that it was not a beast soul, but he couldn't tell what it was?

Just when he wanted to take a closer look, this thing turned his head, and a pair of green and cold eyes stared directly at Xiao Shizhu, looking down at each other, and the fierce light in his eyes appeared.

was just caught off guard by the monster, Xiao Shizhu's heart suddenly froze, and he hurriedly opened his eyes, but saw the warm cloudy light, and the sandstorm in the distance that crossed the southern heaven and earth, covering the sky and the sun, and not crossing the border.

And just for a moment, Xiao Shizhu's back spine was already cold, his palms were full of cold sweat, and even the knuckles were sticky.

As for the strange and strange monster that appeared in his mind, he could no longer see it. Xiao Shizhu, who was puzzled, closed his eyes a few more times, but he could only see darkness when he closed his eyes, and he couldn't see anything else.

And the tightness and restlessness in the chest, as well as the feeling of nervousness, also disappeared without a trace.

"Lord, lord. Ying Ying, the national teacher beside him, called out in a hurry, pulling Xiao Shizhu back from his stunned state.

"What?" Xiao Shizhu turned his head to look at the national teacher Yingying, saw the worry and nervousness on her face, and asked casually, "Do you perceive any danger?"

"It's not that you perceive any danger, it's that what's wrong with you just now?" After looking around, the national teacher Yingying turned her head back to face Xiao Shizhu's side, and then whispered in a low voice: "Why did you suddenly become anxious?"

When Xiao Shizhu heard this, he was about to tell Ying Ying about the inexplicable illusion that appeared in his mind, but when the words came to his lips, he looked at the Huangquan ghost soldiers around him, and after he wanted to speak and stopped, he said slowly: "I'll tell you when we get to the border and set up camp." ”。

What lingers in my mind is the memories of the illusion that the other party has seen.

"Good. National teacher Yingying felt it a little again, and found that Xiao Shizhu was in good health, his mood was calm, and even after his emotions stabilized, he didn't urge Xiao Shizhu, and nodded without hesitation and stopped talking.

"We'll go back in a month, right?" Suddenly, Xiao Shizhu, who had been thinking silently for a long time and didn't know what the illusion was portenting, simply didn't think about those things. So he was bored again, and said to the national teacher Yingying without words: "It should be more than 20 days." ”。

It's also a matter of finding some time for yourself.

"It's only twenty-seven days, but even if the army rests on the border for a few days, it's still too late. We have time to go to the Holy Land first and then rush back to the entrance, and we won't miss the time when the passage will open again. After pinching her fingers, the national teacher Ying Ying replied: "The lord can be relieved, our time is still rich." ”。

"Hmm. Xiao Shizhu bowed his head slightly, and stopped talking. One by one, he rubbed his palms against the front of the robe on his body, and wiped the sweat from his palms on his body.

Seeing Xun Xiang who was closely behind him, he couldn't help frowning slightly, and a trace of imperceptible disgust appeared on his face. And the eyes that were staring at Xiao Shizhu's every move also flashed with suspicion.

Xiao Shizhu's every move just now was like an ignorant child, neither a little polite nor a little sloppy, where did he seem to be a descendant of a noble ancient god who formulated the rules of etiquette? Only the Xuan Li in Xiao Shizhu's body could determine that he was the son of God. It's just that in the past, Xiao Shizhu's inadvertent every move really had nothing to do with nobility, and when he saw that Xiangxiang Fox was suspicious, he was also puzzled, and he couldn't understand: "Why did we lose to such a ghost?"

And Xiao Shizhu naturally didn't know, Xun Xiang behind him looked at him and thought something, and after wiping off the beads of sweat in the palms of his hands, he said leisurely: "I don't know what the situation is on Shuoyue Island now?"

"Don't worry. Ying Ying pursed her lips and smiled, relieved Xiao Shizhu and said: "There is a British general on the island, and there is a ** in the capital, so don't want to commit murder on the island." ”......

On Shuoyue Island, where the sky is full of wind and snow, the chill is blowing with the wind.

Lu Teng, who was surrounded in the snow, looked around at his comrades-in-arms who used to fight side by side, and the ghost soldiers who were now fierce to him slowly calmed down.

For a while, he felt sad for these comrades-in-arms.

After thinking about it carefully, he knew that Gong Mingyi's so-called game was just a lie about temporary danger. In fact, if it is really a layout to catch the ghost, why do it for a long time after he leaves?

And his comrades-in-arms sadly believed this lie.

The cold wind was still howling, sweeping through the sky with flying black snow. The corners of his mouth were raised slightly, and Lu Teng, who smiled lightly, was cold in his heart. It was as if it was frozen in an instant by the wind and snow flying between heaven and earth.

Those comrades-in-arms who he braved the danger and the cold wind to try to save him, instead used guns and sharp knives to point at every vital point on his body, and at any time with the anger caused by ignorance, he was torn apart by a mess of weapons.

Gong Mingyi is precisely because of his comrades-in-arms, most of whom are stupid and can easily deceive them. can sell them all, and then let these idiots count the money for Gong Mingyi.

In the flash of light, Lu Teng seemed to have seen Gong Mingyi after returning to the dynasty, and how he shirked the responsibility of the Emperor Xudu to the fact that there were too many traitors in the Xudu army.

He smiled lightly, and there was a bit of disdain and contempt in his smile.

This smile made Gong Mingyi look at it and evoke the most uncomfortable and painful memories in the depths of his heart.

More than ten years ago, a male ghost with bright eyes like stars, after winning a large amount of dark silver from Gong Mingyi, also showed this kind of smile full of contempt, contempt, and indescribable like Lu Teng now.

The appearance and name of that human soul made Gong Mingyi unforgettable. He is - Xiao Shizhu!

Gong Mingyi, under the wind and snow, clenched his fists, stared at Lu Teng's bloodshot eyes, and burst out of anger when he bulged out of his sockets. The murderous aura suddenly rose, and Gong Mingyi, who was slowly rising, then gritted his teeth and ordered: "Lu Teng, there is no forgiveness for treason, and he will be killed on the spot, leaving no corpse." Immediately report his treasonous behavior to the capital and detain the Lu Teng Nine Clans!".

The ghost soldiers around him didn't say anything when they heard this, but raised the sharp blade in their hands high, aiming at Lu Teng, who was disheartened and slowly closed his eyes, but the smile on his face still did not decrease but increased.

Even Lao Lu, who used to be very good at taking care of and caring for his comrades-in-arms, is the same.

They have been completely blinded by Gong Mingyi, and they don't even have basic judgments. At this moment, Lu Teng is an unforgivable and shameful traitor in their eyes.

They must be hacked to death with knives, and no corpses will be left behind.

Just as these ghost soldiers were about to make a move, fires flashed in the wind and snow around them, flickering again and again. One by one, the crimson guns roared through the wind and snow, and shot towards those drunken ghost soldiers.

In an instant, before the swords and spears of the ghost soldiers of Xudu landed on the body of Lu Teng, who was waiting for death with his eyes closed, dozens of guns shot out of the gun, respectively, hit the vital points in the physique of the ghost soldiers who were about to be executed around him.

The mounts under the seat of the cavalry of Xudu panicked and stomped non-stop, roaring in the wind and snow. No matter how the rider appeases and tightens the reins, it can't be quiet for a while.

Under the splash of blood mist, the executing ghost soldier fell to the bottom screaming, lying in the ice and snow with his five fingers slowly loosened, and let go of the blade in his hand.

None of the weapons fell on Lu Teng, who was ready to scatter.

Lu Teng, who escaped death, naturally didn't know that he had escaped death, only to hear a loud bang, and a scream followed. And there was not the slightest pain in his body.

Curious, he slowly opened his eyes and looked around. But I saw a corpse lying on the ground next to me, and the blood was stained with snow and bloody. The other ghost soldiers and Gong Mingyi who were still alive around him were already out of order, looking around at the wind and snow, looking for the ghost who shot him.

You don't have to look closely to know that this is ruthless and accurate, and the wounds that remain on the body after the injury, and the flesh and blood blurred wounds can show a trumpet-shaped cavity, all of which come from the fire guns of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. The kind of firebolt that can shoot out the guns, not the iron sand steel balls.

"In the execution of the big night, you drunken dogs really behaved in a unique way. Just when the panicked ghost soldiers forgot to continue the execution, and looked around looking for the shadow of the enemy, a sonorous and powerful loud voice sounded under the wind and snow in the darkness in the north: "Why don't you leave the ghost under the knife, let me also see what kind of unique ghost it is, to work all the drunken dogs, and to be executed if you don't sleep at night?"

The loud sound shook the snowflakes in the wind.
