Chapter 290: Old Friends (4400 Words)

Bang, bang, bang.

The heavy shackles of the limbs hit each other, and the sound was crisp and pleasant.

Zheng Xiu's mouth was tightly sealed with stitches.

When he opened his mouth, a sharp pain came from his mouth.

But this kind of heart-piercing pain, not only did not make Zheng Xiu feel half of the pain, but a strange sense of stimulation arose.

"Paste......

A muffled roar came out of Zheng Xiu's mouth.

His vision turned blood-red.

"Phase walking."

In the blood-red vision, the "figures" lurking in the mountain wall were motionless.

Zheng Xiu took a step, his vision distorted, and in an instant, he entered the canyon as if he were teleporting.

……

Between the canyon walls.

Dozens of good hands of the mountain clan, the lower half of their bodies are embedded in the rocks, and they are integrated with the mountains.

They were quietly waiting for the arrival of the Great Cadre Army.

Twenty years ago, the damned General Zheng blocked the canyon of ten times the barbarian heroes with a mere few hundred troops.

The thought that today, more than 20 years later, their mountain clan can bury the corpses of 200 cadres and the descendants of General Zheng here, everyone can't help but be excited.

The ice and snow could not extinguish their enthusiasm, but made them murderous and clenched their knives.

"Why haven't you come yet? Surely they noticed? ”

A young barbarian warrior muttered under his breath.

"Impossible." Another elder barbarian warrior sneered: "We are the 'children of the mountain', we are protected by the 'mountain', and in the mountains, no one can find us, and no one will be our opponent. ”

The confident laughter of the older warriors spread along the mountain walls, like the pulsation of a mountain, which only they could understand and hear.

Everyone is relieved.

A pair of simple and clean eyes, blinking on both sides of the canyon, staring at the military camps stationed on the snowfields outside the canyon, revealing the purest desire.

Tick.

Tick.

Tick.

A drop of hot, viscous liquid dripped on the face of a young warrior.

He reached out and touched it, it was hot and sticky, and when he looked at it in front of him, he was so frightened that he almost cried out: it was a drop of black and smoking liquid, like magma, like asphalt, and when he reached out and touched it, he actually peeled off a piece of his face.

The young warrior's frozen face, unable to distinguish between numbness and pain, stared blankly at the strange liquid in his hand and looked up blankly.

Above the canyon wall, a dark and ominous figure quietly "entrenched" on the mountain.

The reason why "entrenched" is used is because the posture of this figure is very strange. The body is long, but the back is bent, half standing and half squatting, and the horizontal pestle is on the mountain wall in an unscientific posture.

Looks like a ...... Person.

The black mist on "it" flowed like a ragged gauze.

Its two hands are long with strange weapons, narrow and long like knives, with round ends, and the "blade" is full of dense serrations, and the body of the knife has scarlet veins and veins, which are pulsating.

The young warrior's mouth opened wide, unaware that the asphalt-like slime had corroded a small hole in his hand.

Its head was sealed in a rusty lump of iron, leaving only a scarred mouth exposed.

Scold.

"It" opened its eyes.

That's the color of blood.

"Slimy ......"

"It" made a peculiar sound, like laughing, and like crying.

The cracked mouth was pulled by pinky finger-thick threads, and more and more mucus dripped as it was pulled.

At this time, all the barbarian warriors lurking in the canyon heard the strange sound and followed the sound.

They all saw the figure, with the same expressions as the young warriors.

No one has ever seen anything like this.

After a few breaths, I don't know who was trembling, and shouted tremblingly: "Ghost, ghost? ”

Zizi Zi Zi ~~~

The strange weapon in the hand of "it" turned suddenly, and the high-speed rotating sawtooth formed an afterimage like lightning, and a terrifying blood light appeared in the veins of the veins.

"It" grinned, the corners of its mouth cracked to the base of its ears.

Laughs like a child.

This is

Killing time.

……

In the military tent, Shen Shizong and Huo Yu quarreled so much that their faces were red.

Huo Yu's rank is higher than that of Shen Shizong.

But at the critical moment, no one can care so much, after all, they all have to consider the safety of the two hundred brothers.

Outside the tent, soldiers set up pots and cook stews.

The aroma of meat wafts out.

Some people warm up with wine to dispel the cold.

"There's going on the other side of the canyon."

At this time, a soldier with five senses and intelligent pricked up his ears suddenly, and a spirit, hot meat rolled in his mouth, and before he had time to swallow or spit it out, he grabbed the knife beside him with his backhand and stood up, and while slipping the meat in his mouth was vigilant, making a snorting sound.

The soldiers brought by Huo Miao's trip are all elites who have been trained for a long time, and they are all strange people with quick reactions. For a moment, everyone lifted their spirits, and for a moment they were quiet, staring at the direction of the canyon.

"Ah......h

"Help!"

"Ah......h

"Ahh

Only then did they gradually hear that what came from the canyon was a muffled scream.

The screams came and went, like a song.

No one knew what was going on in the canyon, but the echoing screams told them that there was something terrible in the canyon. The screams were wave after wave, listening to the screaming songs, the soldiers seemed to be immersed in the scene, and they couldn't help but feel creepy and chilly.

Feng Bei's ears moved slightly, she opened the tent and walked out with a worried face, she looked at the direction of the canyon, her fists were clenched, under her clothes, the thorn-like lines spread silently, and the word "Ding Wei" in her right eye slowly turned.

Without warning, the screaming stopped.

The snow also stopped.

A clean figure tore through the hazy snow mist and gradually approached.

"Yes...... Red King! ”

Some soldiers saw it clearly and shouted.

Shen Shizong and Huo Yu, who were arguing in the military tent, as well as Qing Shisan and others, walked out one after another.

Feng Bei's figure flashed, and a residual light swept out on the snow, and he came to Zheng Xiu's side in the blink of an eye, stretching out his hand to support.

Zheng Xiu's body shook slightly, and he winked at Fengbei: "Don't worry." ”

Fengbei was silent.

Zheng Xiu smiled again: "This time it's finally comfortable." ”

He had a very cheerful expression.

Fengbei lost his usual calmness and calmness for a while, and groped around Zheng Xiu in a little panic.

When he didn't find the wound hidden under his clothes, Feng Bei breathed a sigh of relief.

"How did you wake up?"

After Fengbei repeatedly confirmed that Zheng Xiu was not injured, he walked back with Zheng Xiu in his arms and asked in a low voice.

She had seen Zheng Xiu's crazy posture with her own eyes, and the saw almost cut her neck before she woke up.

Fengbei later also hit a real fire, and the two razed a mountain, and finally extinguished Zheng Xiu's evil fire.

Zheng Xiu's face was slightly pale, his steps were vain, he leaned on Mrs. Zhen's soft arms with peace of mind and confidence, and said with a smile: "I have found a trick, just like a 'switch', you can turn it off when you say it." ”

"Huh? What's the trick? ”

"I'm reminded of the last time I almost hurt you. When I use 'Abysswalker', I will fall into a state of indiscriminate killing, but as soon as I think of you and know that you are nearby, I will cancel this gesture. ”

Feng Bei pondered for a moment and was shocked: "You think I am ...... 'restriction'?" ”

Zheng Xiule: "Hey, don't say it, it's true, you have become my 'limit'." When the words fell, Zheng Xiu winked at Fengbei jokingly: "So don't stay too far away from me, if you are not there, I can kill the whole world when I am crazy." ”

Raising his eyes to look at Fengbei's complicated expression, Zheng Xiu quietly touched it, and said with a sigh: "I take you as a constraint." ”

"What's going on!"

Huo Yu carried a knife, and Shen Shizong carried a spear, and rushed forward anxiously.

"There are assassins in the canyon."

Zheng Xiu patted the back of Fengbei's hand, signaled not to help, and straightened his back.

The two generals, Huo Yu and Shen Shizong, looked shocked when they heard this.

"Explore!"

With a wave of his hand, Huo Yu led dozens of people to form a military formation, with momentum like a rainbow, and slaughtered into the canyon.

Soon the soldiers returned.

Many young soldiers turned pale, supported each other, and vomited out all the wine they had just drunk and the meat they had just eaten.

The scene inside the canyon was shocking, with corpses cut into pieces and rivers of blood flowing everywhere.

Although the Red King didn't say anything, the soldiers looked at the Red King later, and they all had a little more fear that could not be concealed.

Pei Gaoya, Qing Thirteen, the monk, the Red King, and the ...... who has long been known for murder Fengbei.

The soldiers didn't take it seriously before, but now they have walked all the way with the Red King, and they suddenly realize that the Red King's family are all crazy.

The Assassins in the canyon were slaughtered by "well-meaning passers-by" and were completely safe. The two generals, Shen Shizong and Huo Yu, also stopped the quarrel and chose to cross the canyon and go deep into the wasteland.

The wind in the canyon was loud, and even after more than an hour, the strong smell of blood in it had not dissipated, and it was still blowing on everyone's faces along the cold wind.

The soldiers had to clench their mouths and noses to advance.

After an hour passed, there was another light snowfall, and the fragments of the corpses in the canyon were partially buried by the snow, which looked quite pleasing to the eye. The blood dried up and solidified on the rock forever.

Yue Linglong was still sitting on horseback, silent all the way.

"It's the clan of the mountains."

Yue Linglong's expression was complicated, and she bit her lower lip lightly, even if the corpses were mutilated, she still easily recognized them.

As soon as he got out of the canyon, the aged Samba knelt down in front of the Red King.

The old man trembled, and two waves of assassin attacks in succession made the old man keenly aware of the strange atmosphere.

The Daqian soldiers looked at the thirteen barbarian soldiers left in the ranks, and the hatred and contempt in their eyes could not be hidden. All I had to do was use the knife.

The old man knelt down in front of Zheng Xiu, but Zheng Xiu was unmoved: "If it's begging for mercy, then forget it, this king can't control them." ”

"Please, Lord...... For the princess's sake...... Save the Clan of the Moon ......"

Samba was in tears and kept kowtowing.

"Grandpa Samba." Yue Linglong shook her head vigorously and shouted, but she couldn't say the words anymore, she could only watch Samba slam heavily on the hard frozen ground, her forehead burst, and the blood flowed, making her wrinkled face a little more hideous and miserable.

Not only Zheng Xiu, everyone was indifferent to the old man's kowtow.

Huo Yu stepped forward with a mixture of joy and sorrow, and said in a low voice: "In this way, there has been a great change in the Northern Barbarians, I think we should immediately report back to the Holy Lord, maybe this is ...... A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! ”

Zheng Xiu's face was expressionless, and he asked rhetorically: "Just with our two hundred troops?" ”

He knew what the "opportunity" was to be called.

Huo Yu's eyes lit up: "So our top priority at the moment is to reach their territory as soon as possible and find Bai Qiuyue." ”

Zheng Xiu did not answer.

Huo Xuan's heart was confused, and when he learned that Zheng Xiu was still hesitating, he whispered in his ear: "Don't you want to avenge General Zheng?" ”

Zheng Xiu's eyes closed for a moment, and when he opened them, he was like an ancient well without waves, without emotion, he smiled at Samba, who was still kowtowing, and said, "Get up." ”

Samba's face was shocked, and the Red King's sudden gentleness made Samba overwhelmed for a while.

Yue Linglong also looked at Zheng Xiu in surprise, thoughtful.

Samba didn't bother to wipe the blood on his forehead and told the cause and effect of the marriage.

As Yue Linglong said before, although the Beiban is called a "country" in a broad sense, it is actually a group living structure with clans as a unit. The ten major clans take turns to elect the "Wolf King" to lead the Northern Barbarians.

Since the battle twenty years ago, this generation of wolf kings has become weaker and weaker, and has fallen into injuries. The other nine clans were already ready to move, and the fertile soil where the Moon Clan clan was located made many clans greedy.

Due to the clan rules and the rules of survival in the wasteland, although the other nine clans have long had different intentions, the Northern Barbarians have been able to maintain superficial stability over the years.

But not long ago, the wolf king gave an order, which directly made the whole clan blow up.

He wants to marry his beloved pearl in the palm of her hand, Princess Yue Linglong, who is known as the "first beauty of the Northern Barbarians", to Daqian and his relatives.

Long before that, among the younger generation of the ten major clans who were qualified to compete for the position of the next generation of wolf kings, there was a saying: whoever can marry the daughter of the wolf king is qualified to be the new wolf king.

They don't all covet the beauty of the princess, but they mainly fight for a breath.

Therefore, the wolf king's "harmony" move directly caused the hidden dangers of the Northern Barbarians for twenty years to completely explode, and countless young warriors who regarded Yue Linglong as their future wives were furious, crossing the wasteland from all directions, and went to the Moon Clan to ask for an explanation.

Many people think that the wolf king is old and confused, so he did such a stupid thing.

The Northern Barbarians have been fighting with the Great Cadres for hundreds of years, and the grudges are deep-rooted, how can they be easily said to be eliminated?

Even Princess Yue Linglong, who was in the center of the whirlpool, and the "Moon Witch Samba", who was in charge of the negotiations, thought so. But as soon as the wolf king made this decision, when the clan was angry, Yue Linglong and Samba were already on their way to Daqian, and he didn't wait for the rest of the nine clans to express their opinions, and the princess had already set off.

"Lord Wang! The wolf king actually ordered the old man early on that the princess's future husband can only be the descendants of the Zheng family! ”

"What!" Hearing this, everyone was shocked, no wonder the three princes fought for nearly two months, and they failed to get the favor of the princess of the Northern Barbarians, it turned out that this horse master had already been determined to be Zheng Xiu.

After pondering, a few people remembered the complicated identity and feud between Zheng Xiu and Yue Linglong, and for a while, all eyes focused on Zheng Xiu.

Zheng Xiu had long known that this matter had been directed at him from the beginning, and he was not surprised by Samba's words, and he asked calmly, "Why?" ”

Samba covered his forehead, looked at the princess with cloudy eyes, his expression was entangled, and he wanted to speak.

Zheng Xiu's eyes were cold, and he just raised his hand.

Not far away, Pei Gaoya reacted quickly, just pulled up his trouser legs, and was ready to kick out.

"Don't!" Yue Linglong was already scared of being killed, and Zheng Xiu died as soon as he raised his hand, and another person died with one look. A pleading look appeared on Yue Linglong's indifferent face, she grabbed Zheng Xiu's sleeve tightly, her eyes reddened: "My father...... He told me that more than twenty years ago, he said yes. ”

"When I am born, if I am a son, I will be a brother to you, and if I am a woman, I will be with you...... Get married! ”

"My dad said, it's a promise! One with ...... The promise of an old friend! ”

Rub!

In an instant, Huo Yu, Shen Shizong and the others felt a chill down their backs, and almost subconsciously retreated a few steps and left Zheng Xiu far away. They looked behind Zheng Xiu in horror, the space distorted, as if something had opened up there, and the terrifying aura pressed against their chests, making it difficult for them to breathe.

In the next second, Zheng Xiu grabbed Yue Linglong's neck and lifted the thin girl up.

"You say,"

The Red King's voice was cold, colder than ice and snow, deeper than night.

"Your dad and my dad,"

"An old friend?"
