Chapter 184: Torture Horse
I saw that the body of this white horse was extremely tall and majestic, clean and smooth as ice and snow, without a trace of miscellaneous hair, and the whole body was oily and slippery, exuding a satin-like light.
The height of the back of the horses in the East is about 1.3 meters, but this horse is more than 1.5 meters, and the height is more than 2.2 meters if the head is raised.
Looking at it as a whole, I saw that this white horse had a wide chest, strong legs and a strong waist, a neat and smooth mane, and a tail like an iron whip, like a divine horse. There is a strong spiritual power in the body, if you run at full speed, it will definitely not be more than a thousand miles a day.
It was also aware of its impending fate, and its eyes glistened with tears, but it did not struggle, but only looked at everyone with resentful eyes.
"This is a very rare and good horse. The leader of the Hao clan said: "It's a pity to kill like this, so it's better to forget it." ”
"Yes, this horse is quite pitiful, and there is a lack of spirit horses in the state, and it is not easy for Commander Xie to get one. "It's humane again.
"It's not that we don't want to form an alliance with Commander Xie and be friendly to each other. It's just that forming an alliance is a good thing, and it is ominous to kill such a good horse......"
Obviously, although these wealthy clan leaders took the benefits of Wu Feng, they were not very willing to torture horses to make an alliance, once they killed good horses and drank horse blood, this oath was under the supervision of heaven, earth, ghosts and gods.
Only those who are powerful enough have the courage to completely ignore the power of ghosts and gods and dare to betray the solemn covenant casually. These are even far inferior to the powerful clans of Iwakuraden, and their leaders certainly believe in the restraining power of the Torture Horse's Oath.
However, most of the leaders of the wealthy clan were unwilling to accept the inheritance of the Forgotten Valley easily by the white-clothed battalion, and planned that if the white-clothed battalion encountered any crisis one day, they would still fall into the ground, so they were naturally unwilling to take the oath by the horses.
Middle-earth lacked vast grasslands, so the number of cattle and horses was limited, and for the common people, the slaughter of ploughing cattle at will was a felony of death. And a spirit horse that can be used as a war horse, even if it is a high-status person, must have a proper reason to slaughter.
Wu Feng smiled slightly and pointed to the bottom of the horse's neck: "Everyone, look!"
A group of wealthy clan leaders found out. A faint blue wire peeked out from the white horse's shoulders, and the hair at the wound was stained with blood.
The white horse was pierced with a pipa bone, so it couldn't even neigh.
And that wire. It is made by using a demon-suppressing iron that has the effect of suppressing demons and destroying evil spirits.
"This horse was originally a horse demon in the form of a human being, wandering all over the world, not only robbing money, raping and killing women from good families, but also eating human flesh raw. Sucking human blood alive, really doing a lot of evil, and now being captured by me, slaughtering horses and swearing, it also shows the meaning of working with you to eliminate bandits and maintain peace in the Great Zhou!
The leader of the Zhuhao clan was stunned for a while, it turned out that this young leader had already calculated that they were not happy. However, since this horse is a vicious horse demon and harms the local bandits, it is only natural that he should swear to kill it.
All wealthy families have the obligation to eliminate bandits. Since Wu Feng caught a horse demon who killed people for theft, he came over. If they still push, it will seem that they have no intention of exterminating the bandits and are loyal to the Great Zhou Dynasty.
Seeing this situation, Liu Junfeng, the county guard of Hedong County, couldn't help but persuade him: "Ladies and gentlemen, everyone is a loyal and good minister of the Great Zhou, so naturally they should work together. ”
They had to nod their heads one after another, and their eyes signaled, expressing their willingness to swear an oath with Wu Feng.
Wu Feng pulled the red sword Huo Ran out of his waist. The sword light flashed like a rainbow light, only to hear the white horse's neighing, the huge head had already fallen to the ground, and blood spurted out like a flowing spring.
The whole body is really angry. Wu Feng didn't move at all, but the surging horse blood was forced away, and it didn't stain his robe at all, and his whole body was still dry and clean.
The sea bowl in his left hand swept through the air, and it was already filled with bright red horse blood, and a faint aura appeared in it.
The horse's blood in the sea bowl is just on the edge of the bowl. There is not a single trace, not a little, and the reverse side of the bowl is also like Wu Feng's clothes, clean and clean, without the slightest trace of blood.
Wu Feng watched as the horse corpse collapsed with a bang, smashing up a cloud of smoke and dust on the ground. Then he turned around, put the sea bowl on the table, took a glass from a wine glass, and pointed a little with the index finger of his left hand, and scratched it on his cheek, staining a long strip of bright red blood.
Then he picked up his glass and drank it all in one gulp.
Horse blood is poisonous, and if it is injected into the human body, or if it comes into contact with a wound, it will cause some poison to the human body. But if you just drink it, it doesn't hurt except for the bitter taste.
Wu Feng drank the blood of the demon horse, and felt the bitterness attack his heart, but after the bitterness passed, a spiritual flavor quickly spread.
The blood of the spirit horse that has cultivated into demonic power in this way is indeed a good tonic, and killing and drinking it now can maintain the aura in it.
A group of chieftains also came up, took a cup of each, and drank it all after the blood. Most of them were afraid of bitterness, and they frowned one by one when they drank blood.
In the end, Liu Junfeng, the county guard, as an official of the imperial court, also came up to have a drink, expressing the intention of mediating this alliance. Although his real power is extremely limited, he basically has nothing to do except collect taxes, even if someone commits a crime, the wealthy families in various places have their own lynching, and they rarely deal with him.
The meeting ended successfully with the generous and heroic long song of the military band, and the five-colored fireworks were set off in the night sky, which was dazzling.
After the alliance was completed, Wu Feng took the soldiers of the white-clothed battalion and hurried to the foot of Luliang Mountain.
The mountainous area of Luliang is extremely wide, composed of many mountain lines, and almost covers the entire western part of Bingzhou.
Wu Feng chose the place where the two mountains converged and set up a camp.
Here, on the flat Hedong Plain, two stony mountains rise abruptly in two directions, the mountains are smooth, there is no grass and trees on them, it looks like the roots of a giant tree showing the ground, but I don't know how many times larger than the roots.
The two mountain ranges converge vertically, converging at a height of more than 30 meters, forming a natural wall on both sides. The open space between the two mountains is a slowly rising north high and south low situation, which is easy to defend, but flat enough to build houses.
Not far away, there were many streams flowing down from the mountain, Wu Feng learned a certain amount of geographical knowledge in the drawing pavilion, judged that there should be groundwater here, ordered the soldiers to dig wells on the spot, and sure enough, he saw clear water bubbling out.
With the well, even if the camp is besieged by the enemy, there is no need to worry about the water being cut off.
After building the camp, Wu Feng invested in recruiting stonemasons, buying high-quality stones, and building a small castle here.
The castle was planned to accommodate more than 200 people, taking into account both the expansion of the number of white-clothed battalions and the families of the soldiers. If you want to solve the marriage problem for the soldiers, you must not let the husband and wife live separately for a long time, otherwise it will cause complaints.
Due to the easy quarrying in the mountainous area and the small scale of the castle, the craftsmen recruited by Wu Feng with high salaries rushed to work day and night, but in just over a month, this dock fort was initially built, and the soldiers of the white-clothed battalion demolished the simple wooden camp and lived in it.
While the soldiers were training during the day, the craftsmen continued to expand the castle. In the evening, work is no longer opened, so that the soldiers can get a good rest. (To be continued.) )
