Chapter 3 The Golden Jade Head

"Head?"

Guo Zida was stunned, he stretched out his right hand, merged his two fingers into a sword, stuck it on his neck, and made a cutting motion:

"You don't want my head on the neck, do you?"

"Haha, of course not."

Xia Zhician shook his head, he chuckled a few times, took out the crimson wine bottle from the white wide-sleeved robe in his right hand, and gently picked it with his fingers.

The house was full of wine.

"Suck - it's so fragrant, where is this good wine, it really attracts people to run out."

After all, Guo Zida was born in a family and has a strong family style, so he can drink alcohol since he was a child, and he loves fine wine. When he was still in the capital, he often went in and out of various wine shops, of course, he was the kind of serious and only drunk.

"Hahaha, Brother Guo......" Xia Zhician turned his hand and held the teacup in front of Guo Zida in the palm of his left hand, and there was no half drop of tea in it. He lightly turned the bottle and poured out a small half glass of translucent viscous liquor:

"Can you have a drink?"

"Just a cup? Even ten cups and a hundred cups can be drunk, come on, come on. ”

Guo Zida was not polite, he picked up half a cup of wine, sniffed it first, and with a happy smile on his face, he raised it and drank it all.

Tut-tut, such a good wine must be tasted.

"Huh? How is this wine tasteless......"

Fine wines have their own mellow aromas, and depending on the product, each has a variety of complex or simple aromas. Of course, there is also one type of liquor, and that is spirits. The aroma is thin, the color is cloudy, but it has a strong feeling. The fierceness that gallops between the heavens and the earth and ignores everything in the world is the goshawk that flies the highest in the sky, the wild horse that runs fastest on the grassland, and the kun that sways freely in the sea.

Jianghu people are the most favorite, and Guo Zida is naturally too.

Strangely, this glass of wine has neither aroma nor potency. It's like a spring from a mountain stream, or a rootless water from a dark cloud and rainy day.

"This wine ......"

But before the next sentence was spoken, Guo Zida fell drunk on the table and chair. The whole body is crooked, and the corners of the mouth are flowing out.

On the other side, Xia Zhician just smiled, and he raised his wine bottle and took a sip of wine.

……

The wind and the wind are like wolves howling through the forest and sweeping the plains.

The cold light condensed on the wilderness, and Bai Sensen was cold and painful.

Pitch-black armor, bright silver guns.

The black-armored general, whose face could not be seen clearly, sat on top of the war horse, and behind him were a full 100,000 warriors. Each of them was lying in the barren grass and sand dunes, and there was only the cold and merciless white moonlight in their dark eyes.

The moonlight is ruthless and can contain all things, but the eyes are ruthless, but there is only murderous lurking.

The lonely city in the distance was like the last leaf of the last branch of a dry old tree. Although it has not yet fallen, everyone knows that it will eventually fall, and it will fall.

Tonight coincides with a vision, and at midnight there will be a tengu swallowing the moon. At that time, there would be a black moon hanging in the sky of the original full moon, and even the slightest ray of moonlight could not be tilted.

Darkness is capable of swallowing everything.

There is only one big flag left on the lonely city, and there is only a broken word "Guan" written on it.

The city is lonely, and so are the people in it.

There were no reinforcements, no rations, not even arrows, and the soldiers didn't even have cotton clothes for the winter. It was such a lonely city, which was blocked for a year under the attack of the Great Qi Dynasty.

But the general trend of the world is like a river rushing down, and it cannot be turned back or turned back.

Stand above the city, and look down with your eyes raised. The moonlight flowed down like water, covering the whole wilderness. The corpses of the soldiers who had fallen on the wilderness were also swallowed up by the moonlight, and they could no longer be seen clearly.

"General Guan, the 'mutton' in the city has also been eaten, we ......"

The tall body like a black tower did not move, and he raised his head and kept looking sideways at the full moon in the sky, his messy beard fluttering in the wind.

Mutton.

The city was without food for a long time, and the people and soldiers ate all the snakes, insects, rats, ants, and straw stalks in the earthen walls. Later, I don't know when it started, the city began to eat "mutton", this "mutton" was given to everyone by the soldiers, although it was very small and difficult to eat, but it was finally food, which could make people live.

Man, also known as the two-legged sheep.

The history books contain: In the year of famine, the people were all eaten by changing their children, and the corpses were cooked.

It's just a few words, but I don't know how many people's souls are wronged, and how many hungry bones are buried underneath!

"Order: Go down ......"

The general surnamed Guan finally lowered his head that had been held high all his life, he closed his Danfeng eyes slightly, and put his right hand on the dragon swallowing big knife that had stood on the side for a long time.

Airplanes. The wide blade is covered with the old marks of the sandy grounds. But the moment General Guan's right hand touched it, there was a low chirp. The sword is a spirit that will naturally respond to its master.

The dragon's eye, which had been completely dimmed, slowly oozed red blood.

It's time to do it!

"Kill!"

With a shout, 100,000 soldiers poured into the lonely city like a tide, like an eager autumn wind blowing the last dead leaf on the branches.

Along with the shouting and cheering, there was also the punctual tengu swallowing the moon.

The full moon is swallowed up little by little.

The pure black moon is like the heavens have opened one eye.

There was no compassion in that gaze, nor was there the wrath that punished heaven and earth. It just stared at the people below who were as small as ants, whether it was the soldiers who attacked the lonely city or the generals who defended the lonely city, they were all the same.

It's like the end of everything.

"Kill!"

The black-armored general rode up, raised the bright silver spear in his hand, and shouted loudly.

On moonless nights, people can only hear the chaotic footsteps and roars, but they can't see the human figures. In addition, there is a shortage of food and grass in the isolated city, and there are many casualties. This is the perfect time to break through this lonely city.

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

"Fire!"

Three loud shouts, the gate of the city, which was said to have been doused with molten iron to become the gate of death, actually opened in the middle. No, that's not being opened.

Rather, it was split.

Bang!

The heavy city gate fell to the side, and the bluestone city wall was smashed into pieces.

Fire!

Not torches, not bonfires, not lights, not fireworks.

It's a skyrocketing fire! The fire of the whole city seemed to be the sun setting on the ground, and the wasteland, which had been obscured by the darkness of the black moon, was once again illuminated by a blazing light, as bright as day.

General Guan picked up the dragon swallowing big knife in his hand and walked out slowly. The whole city behind him was burning, beating the drum of victory and playing a triumphal song for him.

Look, the souls of the deceased are dancing the flags. The living, on the other hand, are in flames, armed with broken spears and short swords, and fight like demons crawling out of the depths of hell.

There are only thousands, but these thousands are not people. It's an evil ghost, it's a demon who asks for his life, it's a yaksha ghost who runs out of hell.

Bang!

Under the firelight, the dragon-swallowing broadsword collided with the bright silver spear.

……

"Yawn ......"

Guo Zida stretched his waist and yawned heavily, he got up from the seat, and didn't care at all about Sven wiping the saliva from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve:

"What a strange dream. I dreamed that I became a general who defended a lonely city, but unfortunately I ended up with a broken city......"

"That person's name is Guan Dingshan, and the person who fought against him and killed him in the end is called Pei Yan."

Xia Zhicicada didn't fall asleep, and there seemed to be countless elixirs and jade liquid in his small wine bottle. He drank the wine one after another, quietly waiting for time to fly by, the sun had set, and the crescent moon had quietly risen.

"The former dynasty was the general of the 10,000-strong enemy in the Great Weekend Year, Guan Dingshan. Didn't he die tragically more than 300 years ago, are you looking for his head? ”

Guo Zida shook his still dizzy head, the thoughts in his mind gradually became clear, and some descriptions in history books and some wild history rumors appeared in his mind:

"I remember the history books. Guan Dingshan died of exhaustion, and then was beheaded by the general Pei Yan to circulate the three armies. Pei Yan also personally rode a horse and trampled Guan Dingshan's head into mud......"

Xia Zhician put down the wine bottle in his hand, and he continued to say what Guo Zida did not finish:

But that Pei Yan later launched a madness in the court and killed himself by hitting a pillar. For a while, everyone in the world said that it was General Guan's ghost who was doing mischief, and even Gao Zu was convinced of it. ”

"In order to appease the souls of the dead, His Majesty Gaozu sent someone to carve Jin Yu as the head and bury it with General Guan's body. It was still buried with the courtesy of the princes. When you say human head, do you mean the golden and jade human head? ”

Guo Zida saw that Xia Zhicicada had led him to the legends of the history of the rivers and lakes, so he naturally thought of the legendary golden jade head.

"A hundred years ago, this object was stolen from the tomb of General Guan. But this thing has been going on for a long time, and it has become a special evil thing because it is attached to the soul of General Guan. Many demons are attracted to ......"

Xia Zhician shook his hand, and a bulging thing rolled out of the black sleeve robe on the left. It was the black cat demon who had turned into a kitten with baby teeth that had not been removed, and she was like a small pet kept at home by ordinary people.

"This cat demon is also ......"

"Exactly."

With a weak woman alone, even if she was angry during her lifetime, it was impossible for her to cultivate into such a powerful cat demon in just fifty years. Therefore, there must be strange and evil things to help, coupled with the cooperation of heaven and place, there is a 1 in 10,000 possibility.

But the fate between heaven and earth is difficult to say, it is almost foolproof that it will fail, and those who have died in their lives have sought a glimmer of life.

"I want Brother Guo to help me bring the people in the county to the East Valley to avoid trouble, there will be a big event on the western slope tonight, I don't want the people to suffer from the pond fish."

"This ...... Driving away the people for no reason will cause panic. Besides, this is only three hours, and although Qingtian County is small, there are also 100 families, including women, children and the elderly, so it is impossible for them all to ...... before the end of the night."

Guo Zida's brows tightened, he couldn't think of a solution to this matter. Even if he overstepped his authority and relied on his family connections to be seconded to the army, he would not be able to complete this task for a while.

"That's easy, you just have to arrange for the officials to lead the way. I'll do the rest. ”

Xia Zhician picked up the wine bottle with both hands, although he saw his lips lightly opened, he couldn't hear any sound. In Guo Zida's surprised eyes, Xia Zhicicada blew lightly at the end.

The red wine gourd disappeared in his hand in the blink of an eye.

"Alright, let's hurry up the arrangements."

Although Guo Zida was surprised, he still arranged everything according to Xia Zhiciao's instructions. After all, the other party is a five-colored spirit official who can subdue demons and subdue demons, which is not something that ordinary mortals can imagine.

A fragrance wafted out from the top of the county seat, and the people who smelled it stopped and looked stunned, and then they walked towards the east valley in a daze.

If there are elderly people in the family, they all pick up the old people and leave. There are children who are holding or leading, and they are also hurried to the East Valley.

At the front of the road, there were two black-clothed officials holding gongs to open the way. They shouted loudly to draw the crowd as they banged gongs to open the way.

Walking at the back of the crowd was the young county magistrate Guo Zida, who walked on the dirt road in the mountains, looking back in the direction of the county seat from time to time.

At the top of the county seat, there was the red wine gourd.

From a distance, it looks like the last fiery red maple leaf falling in autumn.

……

Dark night, sub-hour, mass grave on the western slope.

Meow~~~

With a childish meow, a blue-eyed cat with a shiny black coat walked lightly, and a red silk thread was wrapped around her neck, which stretched out of sight in the distance.

Under the reflection of a waning moon, a bewitching red halo was emitted. The red color was like a bright lipstick on the lips of a beauty, exuding some kind of inexplicable fatal attraction.

And at this moment, countless mounds and dirt bags burst open. White hand bones emerged from beneath the ground.

"You...... Come...... ......"
