[227] Exile

"Gambling?" King Kong and Yu Rong looked at Xiao Shizhu with their eyes wide open like copper bells; this is a national policy, or a national policy related to the life and death of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, how can it be decided by gambling?

For a moment, the two ghosts with incredible expressions on their faces were a little chilled, and they couldn't help but reflect in their hearts, how could they have such a lord? But then they hurriedly settled down, and after eliminating the distracting thoughts in their minds, they shouted in unison: "The lord thinks twice, don't play with children!" In the passage, there were bursts of echoes.

"Shhhhhh

"I said it's a bet, but it's not without a detailed plan. Aren't we short of troops? Then leave them behind to expand the source of troops. Xiao Shizhu glared at Yu Rong and King Kong, who had shut up, and said: "And Changqin will help us fight a local defensive war, but we will prevaricate Changqin under the pretext of domestic preliminary decision and long-term consideration, and we will not take the initiative to provoke Wu Hui for the time being." Therefore, we just took Changqin in and then refused to return to Wu outside the border, so as to at least ensure the stability and stability of the hinterland of the country. ”。

"And then?" Yu Rong and King Kong also felt that it was feasible when they heard this, but they still thought about it for a while and then asked in a daze.

Xiao Shizhu's method can only solve the problem for a while; in the future, Wu Hui will send troops to the Jiuyou Kingdom on the charge of interfering in other countries' affairs, if it develops into a long-term friction with Zhu Rongguo, it will be the same as the opposite.

And although Xiao Shizhu saw the hesitation and worry in their eyes, he still had confidence in his face, and smiled indifferently disappreciatively; the reason why he chose to let the ghost mother give birth at the border close to Wu Hui was to detain the "basin" of the Son of God and Xuanli to Wu Hui's head.

In this way, let the Emperor Xudu restrain Wu Hui!

In order to prevent the Emperor of Xudu from suspecting the Nine Hidden Kingdoms near Zhurong Kingdom, he also posted a notice in Xiaoyu Mountain City on the second day after the night wandering god, indicating that the people had a future for themselves; in order to make this lie realistic, he also celebrated the whole country for three days and granted amnesty to more than 100 prisoners.

In order to make it seem to outsiders that his main wife, the ghost mother, has given birth. It is also to confuse the spies of the Emperor Xudu, and at the same time, let them secretly report the news to the ears of the Emperor Xudu.

It is precisely because of this that now he dares to be 100% sure that the Emperor Xudu, who is far away on Luo Yu Mountain, will inevitably take the lead in doubting Zhu Rongguo after feeling the Xuan Li, and then he will naturally take some necessary actions against Zhu Rongguo. At that time, Wu Hui's wishful thinking of driving the hot potato of Changqin to the Nine Shadows Kingdom will inevitably collapse.

And Changqin, an exiled prince, must rely on Xiao Shizhu's Jiuyou Army and Xiao Jiajun if he wants to take revenge; at that time, even if Xiao Shizhu does not take the initiative to ask for military expenses, Changqin will take the initiative to give up the land of Zhurong Kingdom.

At least one or two counties have to be given.

If he doesn't give it, Xiao Shizhu will not send troops to attack Wu Hui for a long time, and when the time comes, Changqin, who is eager for revenge, will definitely be released.

But these plans, he can't explain these plans to Yu Rong and King Kong in detail, it's not that he doesn't believe in these two ghosts, but the fewer ghosts he knows, the less likely it is to leak secrets.

So Xiao Shizhu smiled indifferently, his eyes flashed, and he said meaningfully: "Please believe me, my free plan is definitely a clever plan for the Nine Shadows Kingdom to take advantage." ”。

Yu Rong and King Kong were slightly stunned when they heard this, and then they thought about it and found that Xiao Shizhu had never disappointed them, so they put away the sadness and anxiety on their faces, nodded hurriedly, and bowed in unison: "I am equal to the Nine Shadows King, so I naturally believe that the lord's strategy is absolutely feasible." ”。

Before they finished speaking, the colors of respect and trust returned to their faces again.

After finishing speaking, when Xiao Shizhu waved his hand, they resolutely turned around and left with the fungus man.

"Wu Hui, this is what you asked for. After a long time, in the silent passage of the cabin, Xiao Shizhu whispered to himself......

The dark clouds grew thicker and thicker, swirling with the wind in the air, forming a huge whirlpool in the gloomy sky above the southwestern border of the Divine Realm, and thunder and lightning surged in the clouds, illuminating the vast sky and earth in a flickering light.

The cold rain, with the flickering wind, swayed left and right on the firmament, and finally sprinkled under the dark clouds, and the ancient road that did not lead to the village or the back of the store, came along the reckless middle and far away, meandered between the mountains, and extended into the distance, making it muddy.

Between the mountains and forests, in addition to the sound of wind and rain, only the branches and leaves of the trees on the mountains were whipped by the wind and rain, and the rustling sound was made.

Near the border of the Escape God Kingdom, there was a little light, revealing a little lonely light in the darkness.

This light came from the side of the deserted ancient road, in an old and simple house. At the door of the house, the pretense embroidered with the word "tea" hunted in the wind.

The owner of the house is a middle-aged soul surnamed Zhang, no ghost knows where he came from, only knows that this house and the small courtyard behind the house are all built by the shopkeeper who has no relatives and no reason, and then the shopkeeper started to do business here, providing a place for merchants from the south to the north to rest, selling some tea and snacks, and making a little money to live a dull life.

And the ancient road outside the house is the only way to connect the border city of Wuzhou to the border of the Black Tooth Country in the south of the Escape God Kingdom, and it has been the way of business between the two countries since ancient times, so there are often travelers and caravans passing by, and the daily business of the shopkeeper Zhang is quite okay.

But since the war between the Kingdom of the Gods and the Emperor Xudu, and the Black Tooth Kingdom attacked the country of corpses in the west according to the order of the Emperor Xudu, the trade between the two countries was naturally cut off, and the business of the shopkeeper Zhang was not as good as day by day.

Fortunately, he has also saved a lot of savings over the years, and there are also a lot of melons and fruits planted in the backyard, and the shopkeeper can starve to death.

But today, the small shop, which has not been open for many days, has ushered in business again. In the evening, five men with hats and robes came from the north in the rain and hurried into the store to rest.

Later, an old man led a little female ghost who looked like five or six years old, came from the south and went into the house to escape the bitter wind and rain.

It has not been opened for three months, and suddenly a visitor can give the shopkeeper a flower, but what the shopkeeper did not expect is that the two groups of ghosts are coming, but they are all ordered for a pot of tea leaves for more than a dozen yuan, and they are not even willing to ask for a small snack.

This made the shopkeeper Zhang feel a little disappointed, but after thinking about it, it was better to have business than nothing, and the shopkeeper Zhang was relieved.

He sat behind the counter, looking at the two groups of guests, sitting in the corner of the room, drinking in silence, somewhat bored, simply turned his head to look out of the door, and listened intently to the terrible sound of wind and rain, the rolling thunder that came from time to time, and looked at the lightning that flashed from time to time.

Before you know it, the wind and rain are much greater. The doors and windows of the small shop kept making a "creaking" sound, but they were soon muffled by the sound of wind and rain.

I don't know how long it took, in the oil lamp in Zhang's shopkeeper's hand, the firelight swayed suddenly, and there was a slight "crackling" sound on the lamp.

He looked out again, and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky, illuminating the heavens and the earth as if it were day. With a flash of lightning, Shopkeeper Zhang saw a demon spirit standing at the door that was no more than five feet tall.

As the lightning faded, the ghost became one with the night again. Shopkeeper Zhang thought that he was dazzled, so he hurriedly blinked, and after rubbing it again, he saw that the ghost figure outside the door just now had already returned to the door.

The demon spirit with the body of a bird and the face of a human being, but with long hands under the shoulders, the appearance is very similar to that of the feathers, but the wings are covered with azure feathers, smooth and shiny, but extremely hard, and the feathers are as sharp as a knife. He was wet, and the clothes on his body and the hat on his head were dripping constantly.

Shopkeeper Zhang was startled by the way he appeared, and then after the light saw the other party's appearance clearly, he took a long breath and hurriedly walked around the counter and stepped forward, asking the ghost: "Guest officer, what do you want to eat?"

The ghost raised his hat, looked the shopkeeper up and down with a sharp gaze, took out a few coins of broken silver from his arms, and said in a deep voice: "Bring me a pot of spirits to warm up, and then a chicken." ”。

As he spoke, he looked around the store, and then swept his eyes over the two guests in the corner before taking them back.

"The chicken is going to be boiled or roasted. The shopkeeper looked at the silver in his hand and asked with a smile.

"Raw. The ghost replied lightly, bypassed the shopkeeper, walked straight to the corner, and sat down behind the table between the two groups of guests who had come before.

The five men next to the window on the right immediately glanced at the demon spirit. The big man who was led by him snorted lightly and asked, "Where did this birdman come from?"

"From where you came from. "The demon soul is also a leisurely answer.

Yu Bi took the flask and wine glass brought by the shopkeeper, waved his hand to signal the shopkeeper to step back, and poured himself a drink.

"Where are you going?" asked the older man at the table to his left, where he sat next to the wall.

"Go where you came. After the demon soul finished speaking, he raised his head and drank the glass of wine in his hand.

"You're a birdman. The man who spoke before smiled coldly: "The Xuan Emperor Army and the Xudu Army are chasing the Escape God Clan everywhere in the Northland, and you can still break out of the encirclement, it's really a good skill." ”。 As he spoke, the atmosphere in the store was instantly solemn.

"I'm not from the Escape God Clan, what's not to rush out?" the demon soul snorted coldly, raised the wine glass and came back to the sky.

"What's the matter? Is the Escape God King already defeated?" At this time, the shopkeeper just washed and peeled the chicken and brought it up. Hearing this, he immediately looked at the man with wide eyes and asked in amazement.

"yes. I heard about it when my brothers came from the north. The man nodded his head and said, "I heard that they are still hunting down the exiled god general Jumang." ”。
