The Queen of Huangquan, who was standing at the mouth of the valley, stood in the shadow under the canopy, facing the swirling wind, slowly opened her eyes silently, and looked ahead.

After a while, she saw Xiao Shizhu riding a majestic Dangkang and walking forward slowly from behind the heat wave, and a touch of yin owl flashed in her eyes. But after a flash, her eyes returned to calm.

With that, excitement. It was exactly the same excitement that flashed in the eyes of the anticipating ghost people around them.

It's just that there is no worship of the ghosts that come with excitement.

Xiao Shizhu's action of directly smashing the Nine Springs Valley made the ghosts of Huangquan no longer worship the queen. Within a few days of the news spreading throughout Huangquan, the status of the Queen of Huangquan in the hearts of the ghost people plummeted.

Even the sergeant's loyalty wavered.

However, most of the sergeants were still respectful to Queen Huangquan on the surface, but in private and after dinner, the three sentences were inseparable from the praise and worship of Xiao Shizhu. This made Queen Huangquan very unhappy, and when the displeasure in her heart accumulated day by day, she also determined that she must not be destroyed for herself.

Since Xiao Shizhu's ghost life can change Huangquan, then the Queen of Huangquan must use these ghost lives for her own use. Even if Xiao Shizhu will die out for this, she will not hesitate to do it.

I heard that the old gods have long since died, so there is nothing to fear about the sons of the gods. What's more, in Huangquan, there is no backer and ally of Xiao Shizhu.

Queen Huangquan is even more unscrupulous.

But at this time, she couldn't make a difficulty, after all, there were a lot of ghost people around, and with the army of Xiao Shizhu's expedition also following her, Queen Huangquan didn't want these Xiao Shizhu's admirers to do bad things, so she also smiled and looked forward to it, pretending to be warmly welcomed.

It didn't take long for Xiao Shizhu to lead the army to the front of the valley. Taniguchi, which was already full of ghosts, suddenly became even more lively.

Shi Cianming, who had already arrived here, took a step forward to greet him, took Xiao Shizhu to sit down on the reins of Dangkang, and stroked the thick mane on Dangkang's neck with one hand, so that Dangkang stood quietly in place.

Xiao Shizhu turned over and jumped off Dangkang's back, and the smiling Queen of Huangquan had also greeted him: "The son of God is mighty, all the way through the level, killing the ghost soldiers who have been rampant in my Huangquan for thousands of years to lose their armor, and also stop the scourge of swords and soldiers for my Huangquan ghosts, I really don't know how to thank you?"

Just as Queen Huangquan spoke, the surrounding ghost people also praised Xiao Shizhu loudly in order to come up, and offered the wine and food in their hands to reward Xiao Shizhu and the ghost soldiers he brought back.

For a while, there was a lot of noise and chaos all around, and there was chaos everywhere. followed Xiao Shizhu's national teacher Yingying and the black monkey, as well as Xunxiang, and immediately became vigilant.

And under the hospitality, Xiao Shizhu didn't know for a while whose wine to take, not whose food, and after a while, his arms were full of all kinds of food. But this feeling of being chased and blocked by enthusiasm filled him with a sense of superiority and pride.

Queen Huangquan hurriedly called the commander of the guards and asked him to lead the troops to control the enthusiastic ghost people first.

But even so, the guards struggled and it took a long time for the enthusiastic ghosts to temporarily control their emotions and retreat aside.

Xiao Shizhu distributed the food in his arms to the ghost soldiers around him, and only then did he have a chance to say modestly to the Queen of Huangquan, who was close at hand, opposite: "The queen is polite, this is not my work alone, it is all up to Ke Yun and the soldiers to fight the enemy bravely, so that they can be like a bamboo all the way." ”。

"The Son of God is humble. The smile on the face of the Queen of Huangquan did not decrease, and she hurriedly said: "This journey is really hard, it is better to enter the holy land to rest and rest first." I have ordered the food and drinks to be prepared, the best palace to be cleaned, and the hot water for bathing ready. Let the Son of God go with me into the valley, and go first to the weariness and the dust of the journey, and then go to eat. ”。

As she spoke, Queen Huangquan turned sideways, revealing the path leading to the valley behind her.

The guard of honor in armor with scarves on their heads also split into two, standing opposite sides of the road into the valley, stretching from the intersection to the end of the street. The band composed of drums, cymbals, knots, snare drums, feather drums, flutes, flutes, flutes, flutes, long and middle sounds, and large horizontal blows, began to blow and beat and play cheerful and festive music. In the cheerful music, the peacock fan, small group fan, square fan, yellow lu, jianglu, xuanwu and so on in the hands of the honor guard stood up.

Xiao Shizhu slowly walked into the valley with his support in front and back, but most of the soldiers were left outside the valley and camped on the spot at the request of Queen Huangquan......

Outside the city of Weishan, the tide of the Qinglong Sea swelled and brought up the waves to crash on the shore continuously, the rumbling sound did not stop, and the surging waves smashed on the reef on the shore, and then slowly receded and came again.

The port outside the city has been rebuilt, and the post-war ruins of the city are gone. In a short period of time, the ghost people and ghost soldiers of the Nine Shadows Kingdom made this ghost city that was almost beaten to powder by the Northern Yin Dynasty look new.

Only the scorch marks left by the Ghost Fire Pill are still deeply imprinted in the streets and alleys of the city, lingering. It reminds the ghost people of this place and the Nine Shadows Country all the time, the tragic battles that took place here, and the atrocities and cruelty of the Northern Yin Dynasty.

Zuo Fan, who carried a small flag air cavalry, rode his dragon to circle and patrol in the sky of Weishan City, and the beast fell from the clouds in the wind, and landed steadily in the brightly lit harbor outside the city.

Standing on the beach at night, listening to the sound of the tides, Zuo Fan looked up at the moonless but starry night sky overhead.

After winter, every star in the underworld turns blue, but it is the same as the stars in the world. It's just that it won't be long before winter turns to spring, and when they turn green again, like fireflies.

After Zuo Fan looked at the stars above his head for a long time without saying a word, he slowly retracted his gaze, looked around left and right, and said to his subordinates: "It's late at night, let's go and rest." ”。

After the air cavalry around him saluted in unison, the beast turned around and headed for the barracks in the corner of the harbor. But Zuo Fan didn't leave for a long time, but turned over and got off the dragon, gently stroked the neck of the dragon who bowed his head obediently, faced the direction of Shuoyue Island, flashed a trace of worry through the large and small ships moored in the harbor, and tried to burst into the distance in the dark, while saying to himself: "I don't know what happened to Shuoyue Island now?"

His dragon seemed to understand his worries, and when he blinked his eyes slightly, after the blue-black four-zhang dragon body slowly coiled up, he snorted lightly in his nose, and at the same time spit out a breath of heat, he shrank the dragon's head, and then passed through Zuo Fan's armpit, and then gently put the dragon's head on his chest and rubbed it, signaling Zuo Fan not to worry too much.

Zuo Fan suddenly felt a lot more relieved, raised the corners of his mouth with a smile, and then raised his hand and gently stroked the dragon's head a few times. The broad palm rubbed between a pair of dragon horns.

The dragon closed its eyes, its face was full of enjoyment, its nostrils grew and it snorted, and it spat out two hot breaths.

As the heat dissipated with the sea breeze, there was a rustling sound behind the cooker that was getting closer and closer. A herald rushed towards him.

"General Zuo, General Yurong is invited. The herald came to Zuo Fan's side in a blink of an eye, clasped his fists and saluted without blushing and panting, and said, "Please enter the city quickly, General Yurong is waiting in the yamen of the military palace." ”。

Seeing what he said in a hurry, Zuo Fan secretly thought about whether something was wrong and didn't ask much, just said, "Got it." He turned over and rode on the dragon, and the beast soared into the air.

The dragon flicked its tail, setting off a strong gust of wind, blowing dust on the ground all around, and the herald almost stumbled and failed to stand firmly, and then fell to the ground.

By the time the herald stood firm, Zuo Fan had already left and disappeared from the herald's sight.

Zuo Fan, who drove the beast into the city, found the location of the yamen of the military government in the city in the night sky, and fell down with a familiar car, and landed in the courtyard in front of the main hall.

The yin wind was blowing dust, and Zuo Fan, who turned over and got off the dragon, did not stop, strode forward, and walked towards the main hall where the ghost fire was lit and the lamps were flying.

In the middle of the night, Yu Rong was the only one standing alone in the depths of the hall, holding a silk book behind his back with his hands behind his back, looking at the map hanging on the opposite wall, stunned.

It wasn't until Zuo Fan's sonorous footsteps came from far and near that Yu Rong slowly looked away from the map, and when he turned his head, he saw Zuo Fan standing beside him.

"General Yu. Zuo Fan clenched his fists and called.

"Here, hand over your troop transfer and command flag. Yu Rong stretched out his hand and reached in front of Zuo Fan beside him.

Zuo Fan was stunned by this sudden and inexplicable word, and after being stunned in place for a moment, a word popped out of his mouth: "Ah?".

Don't look at him personally patrolling, but the current Zuo Fan is the general of the Nine Shadow Army's Flying Forces in Dongyi Continent, and the Nine Shadow Country's Flying Forces in the entire Dongyi Continent are all under his dispatch and deployment management, and he can be regarded as a high-ranking and powerful ghost in the Nine Shadows Country.

Suddenly, he asked him to hand over the order flag for commanding and transferring troops, as if he was going to be removed from his post or to bring him to justice, which caught Zuo Fan off guard for a while.

Zuo Fan quickly introspected himself, and found that he was not only conscientious, but also did not do anything in violation of rules and disciplines, and even did his best in the deployment and deployment of troops. Even if you don't reward you, there is absolutely no possibility of being dealt with and dismissed.

In the hall where it was clear when he looked around, except for him, only Yu Rong was left, and it didn't look like he was going to be arrested. Zuo Fan was a little relieved.

"Don't be so worried. Seeing that his astonishment was still hanging on his face, and his brows were slightly furrowed, Yu Rong, who was originally calm, finally smiled: "Congratulations to General Zuo for his promotion, the ** edict has arrived, and a general of the Xuanyan Continent North Air Ghost Soldiers will be set up in the country, specifically to mobilize and manage the Flying Army and Air Cavalry in the area north of Xuanyan Continent, as well as the Flying Thunder Car and Xiancha, etc." You and my old boss, General Yingzhao, nominated you and asked you to rush back to take up your post immediately. The place of appointment is on the island of Shuoyue. ”。

After saying this, Yu Rong handed over the silk book that had been hidden behind him.

"This flying force will be in charge and commanded by me from now on. Yu Rong paused and said.

Zuo Fan, who hesitated for a while, finally took the silk book, took a deep breath and slowly unfolded it, and looked at it carefully.

At first glance, I am happy. Then looking back, Zuo Fan's smile froze, and the brows that he had stretched out furrowed again wrinkled again, and a worried look flashed in his eyes.

The content of the silk book is roughly the same as what Yu Rong informed, but there is a paragraph of advice at the end, and it is to ask Yu Rong to take on the important task of rebuilding the flying force of the garrison on Shuoyue Island, which specifically mentions that the air cavalry must be rebuilt so that it is comparable to the combat effectiveness of the air cavalry on Shuoyue Island in the past.

It was precisely when he saw this that Zuo Fan suddenly felt uneasy.

"Is the war on Shuoyue Island fought fiercely?" After a moment, Zuo Fan looked directly at Yu Rong and said the question in his heart.
