Near the oasis where the Zhenbei Hou Mansion is located, there are barbarian tribes living there, but they are no longer pure barbarian tribes, just like wolves on the grassland, tamed into domestic dogs.

At the beginning of the first generation of Zhenbei Hou Zhen guarding Northern Xinjiang, he accepted the patriarchs of four barbarian tribes as his righteous sons, gave the surname "Li", and was the "righteous son" of the Hou Mansion for generations.

Therefore, in history, there have also been cases in history where the Marquis of Zhenbei, who had just inherited his early twenties, sat on the first seat, bowed to the four white-haired patriarchs, and called him "Righteous Father".

When there is a conquest, the four Guiyi tribes will be recruited to form barbarian cavalry to assist the Zhenbei army in the battle, and from the position of the barbarians, they are barbarians.

But one of the most ruthless things about the first Zhenbei Hou is that he likes to set rules, not only for his own descendants, but also for outsiders.

For example, in order to prevent the four major Guiyi tribes from growing and raising tigers due to the protection of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, he stipulated that every three years, the population of the Guiyi tribes should be verified, and the number of their populations should be ruled on according to the different needs of each period.

Therefore, every time the approved year comes, many newborns of the four Guiyi tribes in that year will be drowned by their parents, which is called ...... Reduction policy.

This policy is indeed cruel, but it is very effective, for a hundred years, the four Guiyi tribes have been bound to the chariot of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and they dare not exceed the slightest rule.

It's just that tonight, in the area under the jurisdiction of the four major Guiyi tribes, there is a tent that is particularly lively.

Ten priests, dressed in black robes and necklaces of human skulls, formed in a circle and began to chant and dance, obscure incantations coming out of their mouths;

This is the oldest song in this desert land.

Once, countless years ago, the ancestors of the desert barbarians would sing this funeral song when they bid farewell to their deceased relatives and friends.

An ancient jade-colored scepter stood in the center, shining brightly to the chanting of the ten sacrifices.

Outside the tent, a white-haired old man in a red robe was looking up at the starry sky;

Beside the old man, there was a sturdy middle-aged man, it was already night, but the man was still shirtless, and there were black lines on his body slowly circulating under the starlight.

"Then Dogayang, your father's side, is it covered?" The old priest asked.

"Back to the Great Sacrifice, tonight I let the woman whom my father recently favored be drugged in my father's drink, and my father will sleep until noon tomorrow.

The warriors guarding this neighborhood are also my confidants, and there is absolutely no problem. ”

"It's rare, it's rare, it's rare that there are loyal warriors like you in those many departments."

"The barbarian god is above, Naduogayang has never forgotten that he is the descendant of the barbarian god for a day, and every day he is looking forward to the return of the royal court and lead us to expel the Yan people!"

"Well, it's a pity that your father is stubborn, and the other three tribes have also forgotten their identities."

"My father, he is old, he is afraid of death, he has destroyed his faith, he has disgraced the barbarian gods!

The Yanren are brutal, and every three years I have to witness the newborns of the tribe drowned to the cries of their parents, and the Yanren treat us like dogs under our feet! ”

"However, many people want to be dogs!"

Speaking of this, the old priest's voice carried a clear anger.

Because it is not that the royal court has not attacked the four major Guiyi tribes, but so far, it has only absorbed the eldest son of the many tribes, Naduo Jiayang.

This is also a very normal thing, who said that in the past hundred years, the Zhenbei Hou Mansion has been in a strong position.

If there is something, fight the barbarians;

It's okay, it's more important to fight the barbarians;

The previous generation of Zhenbei Hou was too much,

He celebrates his birthday and fights the barbarians;

His mother's birthday was celebrated;

Emperor Yan's birthday, but also to fight the barbarian to celebrate;

The weather is good today, let's fight the barbarians!

This generation of Zhenbei Hou is not as war-torn as the previous generation.

But the old priest knew that this was not because this generation of Zhenbei Marquis was "suddenly kind-hearted", but purely because when his father was in power, the commander of the Zhenbei army beat the barbarians too hard, and if he continued to fight, the royal court would collapse.

Perhaps, in the eyes of this generation of Zhenbei Hou, only this kind of barbarian who seems to be organized but cannot be organized at all is the most peaceful barbarian, because they themselves will keep going to internal friction.

Before the Zhenbei Hou Mansion showed its decline, how could these four Guiyi tribes take the initiative to "abandon the dark and turn to the light"?

"Even that King of Zuogu is also a bastard!"

The old priest scolded Shatuoque Stone again.

It was a genius barbarian boy he personally unearthed from the Shatuo Tribe, although he did not follow the path of a barbarian master in the end, but he was amazingly talented in martial arts.

Sanpin martial arts, on the battlefield, one person can block a thousand horses!

In the words of later generations, it is equivalent to a country's strategic nuclear weapons.

As a result, after learning that the Shatuo tribe had been destroyed, Sha Tuo Que Shi first knelt under the barbarian king's tent for three days and three nights, begging the barbarian king to give him 3,000 barbarian cavalry, and he was going to take revenge on the Yan people!

The barbarian king did not dare to see him.

The meaning is very clear, the Shatuo Department is destroyed, and it will be destroyed, once the royal court reacts excessively and completely angers the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, once the 300,000 iron cavalry of the Zhenbei Army are all opened, the royal court may not be able to keep it!

I have persuaded him, and the kings of the left and right have also persuaded him.

But after kneeling for three days and three nights, he actually handed over his seal letter and the golden sword that symbolized the supreme glory of King Zuoguli, saying that he was now a white body and had nothing to do with the royal court.

Since Wang Ting was not going to speak, he would go and ask for an explanation himself.

This bastard!

He really ran to the gate of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei to die alone!

In order to cultivate him, how much effort the royal court put in, and what glory the barbarian king gave him, he actually went to die so casually!

In the past two days, every time I thought of this, the old priest's heart was extremely painful.

When Sha Tuo Que Shi "resigned" and left, King Zuo Xian brought two Dadu guards to stop him, but he was beaten out by him.

Since then, the royal court has begun to arrange this matter by him.

Sha Tuo Que Shi, since his death is irretrievable, then his physical body is the interest recovered by the royal court.

The body of a three-rank martial artist, before he died, was slaughtered a lot, and was filled with evil aura, if he could take it back and refine it, it could be made into a puppet that was infinitely close to the three-rank martial artist.

And in terms of refining corpse puppets, the sacrifices of the royal court have absolute experience.

The old priest had heard that the Yue tribe in the depths of Daze in the Chu State also seemed to have the custom of refining corpse puppets, but the old priest did not think that the corpse refining techniques of the Yue people in that area could be compared with his own.

At this moment, the tent was lifted from the inside, and one of the priests bowed down and said:

"The Great Priest has been summoned."

"Okay."

The high priest glanced at Na Duo Jia Yang who was standing beside him again, and Na Duo Jia Yang immediately puffed up his chest and said in a deep voice:

"Please rest assured, I will ensure the safety of this place, and no one will come to disturb me!"

"Kayang, when the matter here is over, you can find an excuse to say that you are sick and bedridden and can't see anyone, and then come to the royal court, and I will let you go to the sacrificial place to practice."

Kayang immediately knelt down,

Honest Voice:

"Thank you for the Great Sacrifice Cultivation!"

"Hmm."

The high priest reached out and patted Kayang's shoulder,

Road:

"You have to believe that the days to come are still very long, and as the descendants of the barbarian gods, we will eventually dominate this world again!"

After that,

Leaving the fever-boiled Kanar there, the high priest walked into the tent.

"Let's get started, recall our warriors! Let him return to the barbarian god as a warrior! ”

"The barbarian god is above!"

"The barbarian god is above!"

Ten priests knelt down collectively,

Each had a dagger in their hands, slicing open their palms, allowing the blood to begin to flow down the ground beneath their feet, eventually converging into the ancient jade-colored scepter.

The High Priest opens his arms,

Chanted:

"Return............ Come............ Bar............ Return............ Come............ Yo ............"

…………

In the room of the Hou Mansion, Zheng Fan was lying on the bed, holding the stone where the magic pill seal was located in his hand, and it was upside down.

He regurgitated what the Sixth Prince said on the night, the Sixth Prince was a smart man, Zheng Fan had no doubt about this.

His words at night had already hinted at too much information, and with his identity, he must have seen through some cats that even the ministers of the imperial court could not understand.

North, something big is coming.

In fact, according to the blind man's original plan, Hutou City is only suitable for being the first stronghold, and after it develops to a certain extent, it will have to change its nest.

That Zhenbei Hou Mansion, like a behemoth, stands in the Northern Plains, which is too restrictive to development.

So, are you really going to the south to open up?

"Knock knock!"

There was a knock at the door,

Then came the voice of the Six Princes:

"Captain Zheng, get up and watch the play!"

…………

"Ahh

"Ahh

"Ahh

The sixth prince sneezed three times in a row, and his body was obviously a little unable to stand the cold wind, especially when he was still riding on a horse, not in his warm carriage.

"Captain Zheng, aren't you cold?" The sixth prince asked curiously to Zheng Fan, who was also riding on a horse beside him.

"Two more sets of clothes under the lowly armor."

"Didn't you remind Lone earlier?"

"Your Highness didn't ask me again."

"Come, come, see those three barbarians?" The sixth prince pointed to the front and whispered to Zheng Fan.

"See."

"That's the patriarch of the four Guiyi tribes under the jurisdiction of the Hou Mansion, and three of them came."

"And another?"

"Well, look around."

Zheng Fan looked around and quickly understood.

At the entrance of the school field, at this time, there were already dense war horses and soldiers, in this cold wind, they were still neatly arrayed, and the aura of slaughter was almost suffocating.

"Look, the old lady is out."

Zheng Fan looked forward and found a chariot slowly driving out of the military formation.

The combat tool of the chariot has long been eliminated in this era, and now it is more often used by the commander-in-chief of the army or used as a prop for sacrificial activities.

And this chariot was galloped by eighteen war horses, and at the front of the chariot, two generals stood.

One with a longbow and one with an iron sword;

Behind these two generals stood a woman in gold armor.

The woman is old, but the years seem to be especially kind to her.

Zheng Fan knew that the reason why he came to the Hou Mansion this time was because of the old lady's fiftieth birthday, but the woman in gold armor in front of him, it was difficult for you to associate her with a fifty-year-old woman.

Next to the old lady, stood a young general in red armor, this Zheng Fan knew, he was the county lord.

"The seven general soldiers of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei, the one with the bow is called Li Chenghui, when he fought with the barbarians in the early years, he once went deep into the desert alone, and when he came back, he carried the thumbs of dozens of barbarian eagle archers.

The sword holder is called Li Liangshen, the swordsmanship has already reached its peak, the sword saint of the Jin Kingdom has come to the Hou Mansion to find him, after leaving, he has said to people, try to learn, Li Liangshen is not his opponent, but if it is a war fight, he will be beheaded by Li Liangshen.

It is said that they are all in the realm of three-rank martial artists, the same as the Shatuoque Stone who came to knock on the door the day before yesterday. ”

Hearing this, Zheng Fan nodded.

It's all big guys, and this pomp is really big.

That is, thanks to the light of the six princes, he was able to stand so close to witness this scene.

Oh, by the way, what did the overlord of Western Chu say when he saw the first emperor's luan?

The chariot stopped,

All the soldiers of Zhenbei standing in the surrounding column raised their soldiers together,

"Tiger!"

"Tiger!"

"Tiger!"

The three barbarian chiefs walked forward tremblingly, and when they were still some distance away from the chariot, the three of them knelt down together and came over on their knees.

Of the three patriarchs, except for one who was middle-aged, the other two were gray-haired old men, who were definitely much older than the old lady in age.

But at this time,

But the three patriarchs kowtowed together in fear:

"The child sees his mother, and his mother lives forever!"

"The patriarch of the Guiyi tribe and the previous generations of Zhenbei Marquis are all righteous sons, no matter the age, only in terms of generation, even if the contemporary Hou Ye is a little child, they have to respectfully call their father."

The sixth prince explained to Zheng Fan in a whisper.

"Old body, you can't afford this big gift."

"The child is guilty!"

"The child is guilty!"

The three patriarchs grabbed the ground with their heads.

"Let me ask, in this world, are there children who have turned away from their parents?" The old lady asked.

Zheng Fan immediately looked at the six princes.

The sixth prince was stared at a little unnaturally, and said angrily: "There are many people fighting for property, fathers and sons turn against each other and even kill each other, don't just stare at my royal family." ”

"That's a lot, I changed my mind. Hou Ye is not at home, do you look down on the orphans and widows of the Li family? ”

The old lady said slowly.

"The child is willing to mention the warriors in the ministry and wash the blood of his mother!"

"Those many anti-festivals, in vain to take care of the kindness of the Hou Mansion, should be punished!"

The three patriarchs immediately swore an oath to the heavens.

The old lady lowered her eyes,

Opening:

"Before dawn, I want many, and I will never hear a sheep cry again.

If you can't do it, disobedient children, and children who have no ability, old bodies, are not uncommon. ”

"Tiger!"

"Tiger!"

"Tiger!"

"The child obeys!"

"The child obeys!"

"The child obeys!"

The three chiefs immediately got up and returned to their tribes to gather the warriors.

The soldiers in the school field also began to line up neatly and drove out of the school field, and when the three departments attacked the many departments, the Zhenbei Army would be outside the formation!

The old lady stood on the chariot, moving slowly with the Chinese army, and she really had the demeanor of the Yang family's general, Li She, the old lady.

It's just that the story of the Yang family is mostly fictional, but the authority of this old lady is real.

Compared with the old lady's powerful and terrifying aura, the county lord standing beside her was as cute and small as a quail.

"An Nei must go out first."

Zheng Fan said with emotion.

The sixth prince looked at Zheng Fan with some confusion and asked:

"I'm curious, where did you get so many golden sentences?"

Zheng Fan sighed, and replied with an attitude that I am just perfunctory to you and too lazy to pretend that I am not perfunctory to you:

"Read more."

"Death Phase."

"Aren't we going to see it along?"

"What are you doing, those barbarians are the same as those who lack heart, once they know that they can't survive and have no hope, they are not allowed to fish for enough money like that Zuogu Liwang first.

Lone, the Great Yan Prince, is their favorite target, Lone has already been assassinated once, and he still goes with a shy face?

Captain Zheng, can you still help Gu block another knife? ”

"I didn't know that His Highness was an idle prince before I was humble."

"You're too real!"

The school field was already empty, and just as Zheng Fan was about to ride back to the house with the six princes, he saw a shirtless man holding a double hammer slowly walking under the archway.

"Li Yuanhu, one of the seven general soldiers of the Hou Mansion in Zhenbei." The Sixth Prince spoke.

This general with a double hammer is the one who came forward to fight with Sha Tuo Que Shi when he knocked on the door that day.

However, the general now has iron thorns on his back, and there are clear blood stains remaining, and the whole body looks like a sinful body.

"Bang!"

The double hammer was smashed to the ground by Li Yuanhu, and two pits immediately appeared on the ground;

He himself sat down cross-legged,

Rise

Staring at the corpse hanging above, which belonged to the Sha Tuo Que Stone.

"Wait for you, this time, you won't retreat."

In the cold wind,

The remains of Shatuo Que Stone were still swaying gently there.

On the periphery, there was another group of strong Zhenbei soldiers holding battle axes and thick shields.

"Captain Zheng, why do you think that looking at this posture and this corpse, what kind of chaos will happen?"

The sixth prince was smart, and although he was not allowed to practice martial arts, he quickly saw something unusual.

Zheng Fan nodded very seriously,

Road:

"So it's better to implement the cremation of corpses as soon as possible."

………

desert

Dune;

The wolf cub, who had almost fallen asleep, suddenly opened his eyes and lay on the ground with his dagger in his hand, listening intently to the tremor from the ground.

Siniang stood on the top of the sand dunes, looking at the black torrent rolling forward under the moonlight in the distance,

Opening:

"Liang Cheng, things seem to have changed a little."

The original drama of the gentleman on the beam seemed to be about to become the host's invitation to the urn.

Liang Cheng opened his eyes slightly and looked at Siniang,

Road:

"They are calling for the corpse that is about to die, and after its corpse is transformed, it will go straight back to the royal court."

Siniang looked at Liang Cheng with some doubts,

Asked:

"And then?"

"And then, because both of them are on the same channel, I seem to be able to summon that corpse as well."

"Then try it and change its coordinates from the royal court to Hutou City...... Oh no, Meijiawu. ”

Liang Cheng frowned slightly,

Seeing this, Siniang

Asked:

"What's wrong?"

"That corpse, which does not know me, will not respond to my call. In general, corpses react to things that they are more familiar with during their lifetime. ”

Siniang hesitated for a moment,

Road:

"Then you ask him, do you remember Chongqing hot pot, Shaanxi Zhenzi noodles, and Northeast messy stew!"
