In the boundless blue sky, the white clouds were red by the twilight.

The sergeants of the vanguard of the Xudu Army, who were wearing heavy armor, raised their blades high and kept rushing towards the Falling Star City, leaving behind them billowing dust and smoke.

Bathed in the twilight, they roared fiercely, like a stormy wave, constantly impacting the Hanging Star City, which was like a flat boat under the storm.

At the head of the city, the retreating gods army fought twelve points of spirit. Since the first few times they suffered poor losses, they have also learned to be obedient, and if they can not leave the city, they will not leave the city, but set up a bow and crossbow and a transfer machine that Mo Zhai privately mass-produced for them, and shoot at the enemy troops under the city without stopping.

The rain of arrows was as dense as locusts, falling from the city, enough to put the Xudu army under the city in a shadow, and every time they looked up, it was difficult to see the twilight in the sky overhead.

In addition, there were many trebuchets on the hills north and south of the city, and the military of Xudu had just approached the Hanging Star City, and the trebuchets on the hills fired at them in unison.

After the boulder roared through a long arc in the air, it smashed heavily outside the west of the Hanging Star City, and every time it landed, it was a sonic shock, and everything it hit collapsed, and at the same time, it also left countless potholes of different sizes on the plain in front of the city.

Under the attack of arrows and stones, the first batch of vanguard troops of the Xudu Army were completely wiped out in less than half a cup of tea. What remained outside the Falling Star City was only the blood-red dust that their souls had turned into after they were scattered.

Seeing that their comrades-in-arms fell under the city wall in large numbers, the Xudu army also quickly set up artillery outside the range of the arrow stone attack and began to bombard the Hanging Star City.

The roar of cannon was soon heard, shaking the heavens and the earth.

"Of course. Amid the roar of artillery, Gong Mingyi, who was standing on the distant command platform with King Qin Guang, replied without thinking: "In the eyes of Emperor Xudu, these people of the Escape God Kingdom are also unforgivable thieves. If you don't slaughter them, where will you get the reward? ”。

Such crazy, cold-blooded and ruthless words, but he was said in an understated tone without changing his heart and without a beat, which shows that the degree of insidious and ferocious soul of this person is comparable to that of Xiao Shizhu and even Emperor Xudu.

"That makes sense. King Qin Guang didn't think much about it when he heard this, so he nodded his head slightly, and then glanced at the wall of the Hanging Star City in front of him, but when he saw that the head of the city was under the artillery bombardment of the Xudu Army, the dust was rising in the firelight, and the rubble was flying, he said lightly: "Then slaughter, it's not that it hasn't been slaughtered anyway." ”。

Regardless of his expression or tone, there is no reluctance or guilt.

has been with Gong Mingyi for a long time, and the last bit of his humanity has also disappeared before the temptation of interests. Originally, he didn't want to slaughter the city at first, but after hearing Gong Mingyi say that he could get a reward in this way, madness also grew in his heart.

Coupled with the slaughter of the city a few days ago, King Qin Guang got infinite pleasure from it, as if he had truly mastered the pleasure of life and death of the ghosts in the underworld, and this madness became more and more inflated.

The army in the distance gradually gained the upper hand. Under the cover of artillery fire, the ladder and the chariot drove to the foot of the city with the Xudu army holding a big shield.

Many of the infantry of the Xudu Army, under the protection of the chariots, also arrived at the base of the city wall.

"Xiao Gong. After seeing that there was no suspense in this battle, King Qin Guang suddenly turned his head to look at Gong Mingyi's unfazed face, and quickly moved his playful gaze down a few points, glanced at the other party's empty and fluttering right sleeve, revealing a smiling expression, and said coldly: "Your right hand is given by Xiao Shizhu, right?"

When Gong Mingyi heard this, his face, which was as calm as water, suddenly disappeared with shock, and this was the first time since Xiao Shizhu won money from him.

And he has been following King Qin Guang for some time, and the two ghosts take what they need, and they have tacitly never mentioned the matter of his right arm.

I never thought that today's matter was first mentioned by King Qin Guang, and the other party's words broke the sky, which made Gong Mingyi somewhat stunned, especially when he heard Xiao Shizhu's three words, and a sense of humiliation then rose from his heart.

"This king has sent his subordinates to check on you, and I heard that you were cut off by the casino owner after a young soul won a thousand taels by a young man. Combined with the description of the young man's soul by the ghost in charge of the casino, and the time when your arm was broken, this king immediately thought that it was Xiao Shizhu. King Qin Guang, who seemed to be smiling but not smiling, said in a rather bitter tone without waiting for him to speak: "This king advises you not to provoke this little ghost; I can't even afford to provoke him, so you can't do it." ”。

Speaking of which, I couldn't help but have a little more sarcasm in my words, as if I was laughing at the other party's inadequacy.

"You, have you dealt with him?" It's just that Gong Mingyi didn't say that King Qin Guang guessed correctly, nor did he show the slightest disgust, but still asked very calmly: "Do you have a grudge against him?"

"I can't talk about it, I just wanted to use him as a stepping stone to get back my errand, but I didn't think about it, and in the end I got nothing. King Qin Guang didn't shy away from anything, just turned his head, looked at the battlefield in the distance, and the rising gunpowder and dust on the battlefield, sighed lightly, and continued: "And I heard that he has been named the King of the Nine Shadows by His Majesty. The fief was the former ghost mother country, and it also allowed him the right to take the initiative to send troops to the princes outside the court. ”。

Suddenly said these things to Gong Mingyi, it was indeed not that he Qin Guangwang intended to ridicule the other party, but he felt that he was now reused by Emperor Xudu, and he also had Gong Mingyi's credit.

Out of the only bit of morality, he was aware of the other party's ultimate goal of becoming an official, and wanted to remind the other party kindly.

"Do you know what this cheap power means?" King Qin Guang smiled softly and said, "It means that as long as he does not rebel, he can live in the underworld for a long time without being reincarnated, and his status is only below the Emperor Xudu, a ghost, above all ghosts." ”。

The evening breeze blew through King Qin Guang's robe, making him hunt and make the sound of hunting, and the events of the past resurfaced in King Qin Guang's heart.

As early as the first time he saw Xiao Shizhu's little ghost, he knew that the other party was not simple. He has been in charge of the Underworld Ghost Judgment Hall for a thousand years, and he has seen a lot of ghosts of all shapes, and he will definitely not look away.

In terms of wisdom and cunning, Gong Mingyi may not be on par with him. And although Xiao Shizhu is also arrogant, there are times when he is arrogant, but not all the time, he will be very steady in important things, and he will also be very good at responding to all changes, more like a cat that will shrink his paws;

What's more, Xiao Shizhu once acquiesced to his soldiers beating the guards of the Night Wandering God, and the Emperor Xudu has not pursued it so far, no matter what the reason, in short, judging from the fact that Xiao Shizhu has never been punished as he deserves, it can only show that this little ghost is not simple.

"It's just a broken arm, and you haven't died, so don't be angry, after quelling the rebellion in the Kingdom of the Gods, I will find you a stable official position, and you can be your official with peace of mind. Forget Xiao Shizhu, forget your hatred. After King Qin Guang once again broke through Gong Mingyi's thoughts, he said indifferently: "You can't fight him." ”

It's just that Gong Mingyi didn't hear a word of his heartfelt words, but he gritted his teeth secretly, and said coldly in his heart: "That's because he hasn't realized my true horror." ”......

Gonggong country, the north shore of Qianxing Lake.

After a while, King Kong escorted Julong, who was tied up by five flowers, into the big tent of the Chinese army.

Xiao Shizhu had put away his sadness, and his mood was much calmer than before, but his eyes, which were still a little red, couldn't hide the fact that he had cried. And Ju Long, who was standing in front of him, only had anger in his heart, and he didn't notice these details at all.

"Executioner!" When he saw Xiao Shizhu, he not only trembled, but glared at the other party angrily, and took the lead in scolding: "You have slaughtered many of my soldiers again, don't you feel a little guilty?"

When Xiao Shizhu heard this, he suddenly felt that this prince was very stupid and naïve, so he smiled and sneered: "Julong, Julong, is there anyone who doesn't die in war?" As he spoke, he got up and slowly moved in front of Julong, and raised his hand again to pat the other party's cheek.

"I have been very kind to the people of your country. At least I didn't kill innocents indiscriminately. Xiao Shizhu sneered and said unashamedly: "Besides, when you inexplicably hit the edge of Shuoyue Island a year ago, did I roar like this? ”。

"This ....." Ju Long, who was still angry, was again speechless when asked by him; Xiao Shizhu was right, it was indeed the Communist Workers who started the war first. A year ago, it was the mighty Communist Labor Army that took the lead and suddenly hit the edge of Shuoyue Island.

If you want to talk about the right and wrong theory of Julong, it is their communist country that is right first. And Xiao Shizhu also happened to understand his right and wrong theory, so he refuted him like this.

The anger in Julong's eyes gradually dissipated, and was replaced by a wave of confusion.

"The underworld will eventually be unified, and I am willing to be this ghost who completes it. One day, there will be no wars or divisions on the ten continents. The races of the underworld will unite like never before. Xiao Shizhu waved his hand, signaled King Kong and left and right to step back, and paced around Julong: "You and I don't want to let our hands be stained with blood anymore, so we must let the first ten continents be unified." Even if the unification can be killed, it will not hesitate. I'm thick-skinned anyway, and I don't care how future historians abuse me with a pen, even if you describe me as an executioner, I'm willing to complete this unification. ”。

"But I can't do it on my own. Xiao Shizhu stood in front of him again and looked at his confused face: "And I lack ghost talents around me now, you are not very good at fighting, but you are good at water conservancy and agriculture, I can not kill you, and you have to help me develop agriculture and water conservancy." ”。
