Section 9 Riverside "Yaodu"
This heavy rain came quickly, and it went quickly. Under the huge pine trees, there are many traces of man-made remains. Suddenly, three black shadows jumped in front of the ashes of the fire like a ghost, and one of the tall ones, with a touch of his tentacles, lingered in the afterglow, and said, "The ashes still have temperature, they should not have gone far." ”
A man in black sneered: "This person has been poisoned by the red mosquito Gu and can't escape from the palm of our hands, chase after it!"
Dusk is approaching, the remnant sun is like blood, the mountains that stretch are plated with a layer of brilliant gold at this moment, the summer evening wind blows, and the lush forest "swayes". Shake the small droplets of water hanging from the branches.
After the rain, the air is fresh and fragrant, and the birds are chirping. Yao Ji flew leisurely in the forest with Bai Aya, Xiao Yi sat on the white silk that seemed to be soft but not soft, and seemed to be virtual and real, humming a little song softly, until Xiaobai closed his eyes tightly and prostrated on Bai Aya, very afraid of heights.
Xiao Yi took out the Flying Dragon booklet from his arms, looked at it for a long time, and couldn't find a crack to crack the doorway, and complained: "This edict of the Son of Heaven really has some doorways, it's really not a person like me who can see the face of the sky." ”
Yaoji stood in front of Bai Aya, leaning on the wind and standing on her own, her clothes fluttering, and at this moment, she listened to Xiao Yi's complaints behind her, and couldn't help but say: "Xiao Yi, borrow me to take a look." Xiao Yi has long been accustomed to Sister Yaoji's contemplation, and at this moment, she heard that Sister Yaoji was also interested in this bookset, so she hurriedly served the bookstack and said happily: "Sister Yaoji must have a way to open it, yes and no." “
Yao Ji raised the bookstack and exhaled a blue breath, and the vigorous flying dragon on the bookstack buzzed to itself, but after a while, the bookstack remained the same as before, not moving at all. Yao Ji smiled slightly: "There is an Arctic Blue Worm seal in this book, if it weren't for the edict himself, the Blue Worm in it would have destroyed this book by itself." “
When Xiao Yi heard that there were such strange things, he scolded with a smile: "This Zhou Tianzi is really a wonderful plan, but he doesn't know that books are dead and people are alive. ”
After speaking, Xiao Yi took out the jade bi from his personal arms, carefully held it in his palm, and said: "If it weren't for that, I wouldn't be able to get this jade, if one day, I can really make a marquis and worship the general, I will definitely build a golden house, so that Sister Yaoji and Xiaobai can live in it." ”
Yao Ji only said that he was a child, but he didn't comment, and the white silk flew away
Night falls, and the sound of the cicadas ends. Yao Ji and his party landed in a small town on the edge of the big river, originally according to the speed of Yao Ji to resist the wind, it would only be possible to reach the territory of Lu in the second half of the night, but first, Xiaoyi Xiaobai shouted hunger, and secondly, Yao Ji faintly felt that someone behind him seemed to be following him. It's a matter of stopping first and then making plans.
The town originally belonged to the country of Xu, named "Yaodu Town", according to legend, Emperor Yao had crossed from here, so it was named "Yaodu". The people of the town have relied on fishing for generations, and later in the battle of Chu and Xu Yushan, the Xu State was defeated. The Chu people advanced by waterway, swept the hinterland of the Xu country of 36 tribes, so far only the "East China Sea City" is still struggling to support, "Yaodu" and other towns to avoid military disasters, the strong people either join the army or go north to take refuge, the remaining some old people still stick to themselves, so it is said to be a small town, in fact, there are only seven or eight households, the lights are as few as the morning star, and it is quiet.
When the two of them and the beast entered the town, they saw a two-story boat moored at the pier, with the word "post station" written on it. There are also dozens of small sampans parked by the dock, and the sound of laughter and boldness comes from time to time in the building.
As soon as I got on the boat, I entered the hatch. The eyes of dozens of big men in the cabin looked over together, only to see a beautiful man in white and a black and white bear beast walking in.
Xiao Yi saw that everyone was stunned and looked at the two of them and one beast, and his hand was still stretched out to the bottom of the table as if holding a weapon, and immediately coughed again and again, and said in the Xudu Pengcheng dialect: "Little Erzai, quickly serve the master delicious and delicious thia, by the way, I will give you ten pots of good bamboo shoots for the cat master!"
Everyone saw that the little ghost head was using the Pengcheng dialect, and their hearts were a little relaxed, it turned out to be Xu Guoren's clan, and everyone immediately returned to their original state, talking and laughing, and staggering. From time to time, there were one or two big men who secretly aimed at Yao Ji, but they were all frightened by Yao Ji's cold eyes and didn't dare to look at them again.
Xiao Yi has fallen into the empty valley, although he often eats the elixir and jade liquid made by Sister Yaoji, but after all, the empty valley is narrow, the ingredients are limited, and Sister Yaoji is very light and vegetarian, and it has rarely seen meat and fishy for a year. Only Yaoji frowned and listened carefully.
After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, all the big men in the cabin seemed to be quite up, and one of them said loudly: "Today I caught a few more tongues with Brother Gao to inquire about the whereabouts of Lord Peng Zu, these thieves are so hard that I cut them all down." ”
Another yellow-clothed man said: "Lord Peng Zu has no news, and the king has asked the Chu people to surrender again, and Donghai City heard that it is besieged by 150,000 Chu thieves and is in danger. We were ordered to attack in the big river, but in order to escape, it is better to kill Donghai City, killing him a Chu thief is enough, killing a pair, then it will be earned. ”
Xiao Yi listened to their words, at the moment his heart was mixed, although he had been mentally prepared, but when he really heard that Xu Guo was destroyed, his heart was inexplicably sad, when he heard them say that Peng Zu, the hero of Xu Guo, there seemed to be a glimmer of hope in his chest, and he was strong to cheer up his spirit, and pricked up his ears to listen.
When you say a word, I will say a word, and when the Governor of Pengzu performed a shocking magic spell and trapped the 200,000 army of Chu thieves, everyone applauded, and when the life and death of the Governor of Pengzu were unknown, and there were only 20,000 remnants left in the 50,000 Dongyi army, everyone bowed their heads and sighed, and then said that when Xu Hou tied his hands and accepted the table, everyone was angry and disdainful, and when he talked about the lonely city of the East China Sea, when it was in danger, everyone beat their chests and feet, and they were anxious to go to the East China Sea City to fight to the death with the Chu thieves.
Xiao Yi listened for a while, and he already knew the situation in his heart: the fall of the Xu State was imminent, and the big Han in the field were all Dongyi soldiers who escaped from Yushan, but Xu Hou surrendered early, and the two waterways of Donghai City were blocked by the elite of Chu thieves, and there was no country to return to, so they fell on the river and started to trade guerrilla Chu people. Then I thought of the edict of the Son of Heaven in my arms, is it the key to controlling the overall situation?
After all, Xiao Yi is young and wooden, Sister Yao Ji is not familiar with the world, and such a major event as the edict of the Son of Heaven cannot be consulted in detail in person, so he can only be anxious to turn around, just hoping to rush to Lu as soon as possible to solve the puzzle.
At that time, the Chu-Xu War shocked Kyushu, and Zhou Tianzi, as the sect of the world, was even more difficult to sleep, but since the defeat of King Zhou Zhao against Chu, the Zhou family could no longer withstand a big battle that could not be won. It is to set the national policy of Chu and Xu fighting each other and restraining each other. Seeing that the Chu thieves were getting bigger and bigger in the south, they couldn't stop it. It was because he issued an edict from the Son of Heaven to force the Chu thieves to withdraw their troops, and he was afraid that the Chu thieves would not accept it, so he had to transfer troops from Lu to the south. Because of this, the Chu thieves besieged the edict of Zong Zhou Si that day, and the matter of seizing the edict was accidentally bumped into by Xiao Yi.
The night wind was cold, the clouds were thick, and the boats were pushed from side to side by the strong wind, squeaking and squeaking. The candlelight in the cabin flickered, flickering and dimming, and a drunk man said angrily: "Why is the weather so evil today, it is really a dark moon and a terrible night." ”
