As soon as these words came out, the ghost hearts of the two fox ghosts immediately fell to the ground, and they took a long breath in unison.

"Hey, hey. Xiao Shizhu saw that they were relieved, and he had to inch in, and after smiling evilly, he squeezed his eyebrows at them for a while, and asked shyly: "When I didn't explain what I said before, were you so nervous that you didn't want to?"

The faces of the two ghost envoys were red and white, and the embarrassment was all written on their faces.

"Just kidding the two of you, I hope there is no image of the feelings and friendship between us. Xiao Shizhu saw that they were still a little embarrassed, and hurriedly explained: "I'm a ghost, I like to joke with ghosts who can talk, don't mind." ”。

After saying that, the two fox ghosts laughed, and the embarrassment on their faces faded, and their expressions became much more natural.

At this moment, the smoke of gunpowder outside the city had filled the city, and the sound of killing began to fade away. On the contrary, in the shouting of killing, the terrible screams and * voices became heavier and heavier. The Chenghuang Yamen in this city, separated by many houses and streets, can also be heard clearly.

The two fox ghosts became nervous again, and immediately erected a pair of fox ears, and after listening carefully, they confirmed that the heart-rending scream was always outside the city, and they knew that although the battle outside the city was fierce, the enemy had not yet entered the city, so they were even more relieved.

Xiao Shizhu, who was calm and relaxed, didn't care or be nervous, he was very confident, and he was very sure that most of those screams came from the Corpse Soul Army.

"I also looked at the portrait of Tu Yaoqing you brought, this female ghost is still quite delicate. And according to what the two noble envoys said, this ghost is also virtuous and virtuous, and it doesn't seem to be very troublesome to get along with, so this family affair is so decided, and the two of you have no opinion, right?" Xiao Shizhu asked after drinking the last sip of tea, looking at the two fox ghosts.

"Of course there is no problem, not only is there no problem with family affairs, but there is also no problem with the conditions for the alliance of the Nine Shadow Kings. The two fox ghosts didn't think much about it, and one of them blurted out: "We can call the shots on this matter, so it's decided." ”。

They didn't care whether Tu Yaoqing was a wife or a concubine for Xiao Shizhu, and they didn't care if Tu Yaoqing would be neglected and abused after marrying Xiao Shizhu;

The power of the guns and cannons of the Nine Shadows Kingdom is famous in the underworld, and with the firearms of the Nine Shadows Kingdom to equip their Qingqiu Fox Ghost Army, then the Qingqiu Kingdom will be invincible in the East Ying Continent.

Being able to dominate one of the ten continents has always been the dream of the two of them and the Qingqiu Fox King who is far away in the Qingqiu Kingdom, the fox ghost with nine long tails.

As everyone knows, Xiao Shizhu at this time has no feelings for Tu Yaoqing. He weighed and repeatedly agreed to this family business, nothing more than that Qingqiu Country could become the foundation and springboard for the Nine Shadows Kingdom to attack Dongying Continent, as well as the income brought by trade every year and the minerals and grains exchanged for firecrackers.

"Then I'll let the ghost official draft the covenant according to this condition. Then we sign and draw the pledge. Xiao Shizhu handed the teacup to the big head beside Hou, motioned for him to hurry up and draft the covenant, and said slowly to the two fox ghosts: "After everything is ready, I will ask the sergeant to escort you to board the ship from the south of Dongyizhou and return to China." You will send Tu Yaoqing to Yuque City together with grain, grass, and minerals on a certain day, and my wife will hand over the three-eyed gun promised to you to your marriage ambassador. ”。

"Deal. The fox ghosts replied in unison, and their voices were full of excitement and joy.

After going abroad for more than half a year, this task was finally completed, and when they finished speaking, a look of relief appeared on their faces.

"It's all up to the arrangement of the Nine Shadows King. The two fox ghosts hurriedly got up, and after they all dressed in their robes, they saluted Xiao Shizhu with respectful faces.

Xiao Shizhu raised the corners of his mouth and smiled, and was about to signal them to be exempt from courtesy, when he heard that the cannon outside the city had been extinguished, and the shouts of killing and screams had also disappeared without a trace.

After he motioned for the two envoys to sit down, and his subordinates exchanged the envoys and Xiao Shizhu with freshly brewed hot tea, they saw an officer covered in dust and dirt, but with little blood, riding a fire unicorn and falling from the air outside the main hall.

As soon as the unicorn servant landed, he immediately stepped on the spot, snorting hot air from his nose, and suddenly there was a raging heat wave and gusting wind, and a brain poured into the hall, and there was immediately heat between the beams and pillars.

The officer rolled over and jumped off the unicorn's back, and before his feet hit the ground, he rushed towards the main hall. When he stood opposite Xiao Shizhu in the main hall, after a hasty salute, he took a step forward and leaned forward, and said to Xiao Shizhu in a low voice: "My lord, the corpse soul army has been defeated outside the city, and they have fled in the desert with heavy casualties. ”。

"Be louder. Xiao Shizhu lifted the teacup, leisurely scraping the tea powder, while blowing the hot air rising from the cup, pride and pride flashed in his eyes.

"Huh?" The officer was stunned for a moment, then turned his head slightly, and glanced at the two fox ghosts sitting not far away with a vigilant gaze, and when he turned his head to look at Xiao Shizhu, his furrowed eyebrows were full of suspicion.

"Be louder, and happy events need to be shared, so that you can be twice as happy. Xiao Shizhu, who took a sip of tea, said to the officer tirelessly. The truth he said was natural, but in fact, he just wanted to show off how powerful his military strength was to those two fox ghosts.

It is also good to let Qingqiu Kingdom know that although they have formed an alliance with the Nine Shadow Country, it does not mean that they can be higher than the Nine Shadow Country, or swagger on the head of the Nine Shadow Country.

When the officer heard this, he blurted out again: "Huh?", and after thinking for a while, he understood what Xiao Shizhu meant that he didn't intend to hide from the fox ghosts, so he stood upright, held his head high, and said loudly: "My lord, those corpse soul troops of the dog day were defeated by our army outside the city, and after leaving behind hundreds of thousands of corpse corpses and countless torn armor, they fled in embarrassment towards the way they came. The casualties of our army were only nearly 10,000, and most of the soldiers were minor injuries such as abrasions, and the sergeants killed in the battle were only a few hundred ghosts. ”。

"Well, it's a good fight, and a simple celebration feast will be held in the evening, and when the sergeants are rewarded, the soldiers who have died will be honored. Xiao Shizhu finished saying this with a slight bow, tilted his head to look at the two fox ghosts, and invited them with a smile: "The two of you can come together, let's have a good meal of eating and drinking." ”......

At the end of the battle in the Big and Small Lonely Cities, the battle on the side of Fengming Valley was also over.

At the mouth of the valley, the bloody tattered armor and weapons and banners of the Xudu soldiers can be seen all over the mountains, lying horizontally and vertically among the grass, trees, soil and stones.

In the glow of the crimson sun, the tattered armor, the crooked weapons and the devastated ground, as well as the scorched craters that dotted the hillsides and valleys with green smoke, all spoke of the horrors of the previous battle.

However, in this battle, the Xudu army was embarrassed, and the Jiuyou army failed to take too much advantage. Under the bombardment of the Nether Ghost Cannon, thousands of Dryad's Dryads were reimbursed on the spot, and nearly 50,000 Deer Fairy Cavalry bloodstained the valley.

The goddess stood halfway up the hill, looking down at the devastation in the valley below, and frowned. Unexpectedly, she was well prepared and still won a miserable victory. The combat effectiveness of the Xudu Army, as well as the lethality of the ghost cannon in their hands, is really not blown.

The only thing to be thankful for is that the Nine Ghost Army fought desperately and finally killed the enemy's main general, Tubo.

The goddess stood on the hillside, stunned as the sergeants cleaned up the battlefield for a moment, and then went down the mountain path to the camp at the bottom of the hillside.

Just after passing the gate, I heard the sound of a hurried beast's hooves running behind him. When he turned his head to look, he saw that the dust was flying not far from the gate, and a group of cavalry from the Nine Shadows Kingdom was galloping towards the camp.

The chief flag officer headed by him was a young general riding a purple-haired and black-scaled thunder unicorn, he was born in his twenties, with a sharp mouth and shrunken cheeks, and his face was like a sick ghost; a pair of tiger eyes were born under a pair of thick eyebrows, and his skinny body was covered with gold armor, and his head was wearing purple and gold light, and a pair of tungsten steel doubles hung from his waist.

That is Xiao Shizhu's Yizi Shi Cassia Ming.

Among the cavalry led by Shi Cassia Ming, there was also an iron car with only an iron gate and an iron window. In the Nine Shadows Kingdom, this kind of ironclad and tightly knit car is generally used to transport important prisoners.

When she saw the iron chariot, she knew what this cavalry was here for.

After a while, Shi Cianming had already raised the antler wrench in his hand, drove the beast through the gate, rushed to the front of the goddess of Gu Shooting, and after tightening the soul of the beast, he immediately turned over and jumped off the sturdy back of the unicorn, stepped forward, and saluted the goddess respectfully: "General Gu Shooting." ”。

The cavalrymen who followed him, stopped behind him and formed a neat phalanx.

"The lord has an order, he said that marching along the valley is easy to be ambushed by the enemy, and he wants you to stop the attack from now on, build a city on the spot, build a pass, and hold the valley pass. Shi Cianming, who then straightened up, handed over the wrench in his hand, which was Xiao Shizhu's token.

The goddess took the wrench, and after taking a closer look to confirm that she didn't know the forgery, she nodded and said, "Yes, I will immediately gather craftsmen and build the city with local materials." ”。

"There is another matter, that is, I am going to secretly transfer a captive to the lord and send it to the great lonely city. Shi Cianming pointed to the wrench in the hand of the goddess, and asked in a low voice, "You should have received the secret order, right?"

"Roger. Gu Shooting Priestess, who nodded again, handed the wrench back to Shi Cianming, glanced at the iron car again, and said, "Bring the iron car with me." ”。

Shi Cassia answered, beckoned behind him, and asked his subordinates to follow him in an iron car.

The goddess led them through the tents for a long time, and came to the depths of the camp, in front of a large tent surrounded by a dozen regiments of guards.

The iron car stopped at the door, and Shi Cianming followed the goddess towards the big tent.

As soon as you enter the big tent, there is a light sandalwood fragrance rushing to your face.

Looking around the tent, I saw that there was no simple prison for the prisoners, but a brand-new table, chair, bed, and couch, exquisite incense burners and tea sets, and even the bedding on the bed was brand new.

Green smoke rose from the incense burner, and through the thin white smoke, you could see not only the freshly brewed tea, but also fresh melons and fruits on the bookcase in front of the bed.

It was a big surprise that the captives could be treated so well.

Sitting behind the bookcase and reading the book King Yama, he felt a yin wind blowing in his face, his eyes moved away from the book he put down, and he raised his eyes to look forward, and saw that the goddess Gu and Shi Cianming had already stood in front of him.

"King Yama, I have been ordered to ask you to move, please come with me. After Shi Cianming stood still, he bowed to King Yama.

"Where are you going?" asked the Yama King casually and stood up.

"You'll know when you get there. Shi Cianming didn't explain much, turned sideways after speaking, and made a gesture of inviting outward.
