[366] The Tragedy of Foolishness
The night breeze will replace the large felt cloth on the roof of the car, blowing with the sound of hunting and hunting.
Xiao Shizhu was listening with great interest, but was interrupted by Shen Ji's sudden shouting.
"If there is a secret report, you just say it, what are you shouting in shock?" Xiao Shizhu, who was gloomy, although his tone was a little displeased, he still couldn't help frowning when he finished speaking. Shen Ji woke up suddenly and was still so flustered, there must be some important military situation, but he couldn't be lazy.
In the midst of the electric light, Xiao Shizhu's first thought was whether the Emperor Xudu was doing something again?
"But......" The stumbling god looked around at the black and white impermanence, and his face was a little embarrassed.
When Xiao Shizhu saw it, he knew that he was suspicious and didn't trust the two brothers who had surrendered, so he said disapprerovingly: "Let's say, if they have two hearts for me, then I will die when I am five years old." ”。
"No!" Shen Ji responded with a clenched fist, and said slowly: "Our spy in the Six Heavens Continent has reported that an elite naval cavalry in the Northern Underworld Naval Division has recently been heading south along the eastern coastline of the Six Heavens Continent. In addition, an air cavalry and a small number of warships were again assembled near the calf pass. ”。
The words were straightforward, but Shen Ji was still suspicious of the impermanence of black and white, so he didn't name the secret agent in Xudu at all, named Lao Li.
"Sea cavalry?" After muttering softly, the fox suspicion flashed in the eyes of Xiao Shizhu, who was groaning.
It's not that he hasn't heard of this sea cavalry, it's just that what he knows is that this water division is the trump card of Emperor Xudu, and it has always been stationed in the Northern Stygian Sea between the Six Heavens Continent and Xuanming Prefecture, and it is never used lightly.
Now Emperor Xudu suddenly sent this sea cavalry composed of water reckless ghosts to the south, and eighty percent of them came to his Nine Shadows Country. After thinking about it for a while, Xiao Shizhu guessed that Emperor Xudu wanted to use this strange army to attack and disturb the Nine Shadows Kingdom when the war between the Nine Hidden Kingdom and the Southern Barbarian Kingdom was still going on, and the national strength was not small and the military resources were in short supply.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shizhu hurriedly asked Black and White Impermanence: "If this naval cavalry is coming for our country, who do you think the Emperor Xudu will send as a general?"
After pondering for a moment in black and white impermanence, they all felt that the Commander of the Water Master would definitely choose a ghost who was good at water warfare as his general. So Hei Wuchang raised his eyes to look at Xiao Shizhu, and took the lead in speaking: "The generals of the Northern Yin Dynasty who are good at naval warfare are nothing more than three ghosts, one of which is the demon soul Yu Yi with a human head and a bird body. This demon spirit is extremely good at water warfare, and in terms of the ability to arrange troops at sea and recognize the hyacinth, he is better than Lu Wu, and he is inseparable from the co-workers. But he was busy helping the old ghost of Xudu to attack Si Youguo, and it should be impossible to send him back to dominate this water division. ”。
"The second is Meng Po, don't look at her as just a yin envoy, but she is familiar with water warfare skills. But she wants to guard the Nai He Bridge, which is the most important thing in the entire underworld, and it is certainly impossible to choose her as a general. As soon as Hei Wuchang finished speaking, Bai Wuchang Xie Bi'an took over and said slowly thoughtfully: "The third is the god of Ma Nujin, it is very likely that she was sent." ”。
"Is it the legend of the world, the woman of the Duan clan who is extremely jealous?" Xiao Shizhu thought about it slightly, then opened his mouth and asked, "She is an ancient god?"
"Yes, the Duan clan in the legend is her, but she is just a personal soul, and this so-called god title is sealed by the Emperor Xudu, not a true god. After black and white impermanence nodded in unison, Bai Wuchang grinned, with a hint of coldness in his laughter, and then explained the ins and outs of the goddess to Xiao Shizhu.
The sky outside the car was half light and half dark, and a few remnant stars hung in the sky. By the time Bai Wuchang finished telling the story of the goddess, the dawn was rising over the western horizon, piercing the blue veil of night and spitting out a bright red dazzling morning light.
"I really don't agree with the aesthetics of this Emperor Xudu. After Xiao Shizhu listened to him with relish, he shook his head and smacked his lips and said, "He also went down to his mouth for such an ugly female ghost?"
"It is said that when the old ghost was still a little god, he also had a time with a female ghost*!" Bai Wuchang squeezed his eyebrows and smiled, showing an ambiguous smile.
Oni are demon spirits that have been eaten by tigers, and they look almost similar to tigers, but they can also change into ordinary people. The only difference is that they can walk upright, and the male ghost does not have a little finger on his left hand, while the female ghost does not have a little finger on his right hand, and his eyes can emit a torch-like green light in the middle of the night.
In the early years, the ghosts often helped the tigers and lured passers-by in the mountains to the tiger's den, which became food for the tigers. Therefore, there is also an idiom in the world, which is called to act for the tiger, and it is said that it is a bad ghost who is not wanted.
And there are more than 100 ghosts living in Yuque City, and now they don't seduce human souls to feed beast souls and tigers, but mostly rely on their dexterity to make a living by performing in juggling teams or restaurants. When Xiao Shizhu took Xiao Fuling out of the palace to play on the street, he saw the performances of the ghosts, and to be honest, their juggling was really wonderful, but the ugliness of these ghosts made Xiao Shizhu refresh his mind, and he still remembers it vividly.
Such a ghost is under the hands of the emperor, it can be seen that the aesthetics of this old ghost are really incomprehensible to normal ghosts.
"If it's a woman, you have to be more careful, after all, she is the concubine of the Emperor Xudu, and she has the true inheritance of the old ghost in cunning. Black Impermanence Fan Wuxian, who hadn't spoken for a long time, suddenly reminded with a solemn expression: "Especially her mount, the ghost-faced red pig, is a beast who can make waves. ”。
"There is also the salvern, this sea beast soul carapace is too hard. Nodding in agreement, Bai Wuchang added, "Ordinary swords are useless against it. ”。
"Well, then use the dragon and the fire. Xiao Shizhu also showed a bit of seriousness, nodded emphatically, and squinted slightly: "If it is the god of Ma Nujin as the general, then I will capture her alive; ”......
The mist rising in the morning light shrouded the battlefield in front of Muli Pass, and the fishy wind carried thick smoke billowing back and forth, shuttling back and forth amid the shouts of killing.
The ground was a mess, and everywhere you could see the bright red powder that the human souls had turned into after they died, as well as the corpses of demon souls and beast souls lying on the ground, and the tattered blade armor.
Taking advantage of the Zhurong clan's flames and infinite strength, the stone ghosts with hard bodies, as well as the superior equipment and the number of sergeants, the Nine Shadows Army finally turned the tide of battle again at dawn.
Not only did they slaughter hundreds of mountain spiders one by one, but they also blew up the secret passage leading from the foot of the mountain to the pass. He surrounded the enemy who dared to kill the people who came down the mountain, and used artillery to blast all the buildings north of the pass on the mountain into powder.
The Southern Barbarians stationed in the dock forts and forts on both sides of the pass suffered heavy casualties, and those who survived all knelt down and surrendered after discovering that they would not be killed if they raised their hands to surrender, not wanting to fight again.
In this way, even if the Southern Barbarian Army, which was still stubbornly resisting, broke through the encirclement and withdrew to the pass, there would be no danger to defend.
But in the face of all kinds of disadvantages, the brave defenders under his command led by Yu Hu became more and more courageous, and their morale was always high; not only did they not rout and panic, but they became more and more energetic under many disadvantages.
The Nine Shadows Army, which had been killed in a hundred battles, was killed and wounded by tens of thousands of soldiers when it was dawn.
Fortunately, the Nine Shadows Army, which was lined up in a mandarin duck formation, was not idle, and the spears swept directly against the wolf, and the guns were loud, and the Southern Barbarian Army was also killed like a bamboo. Gradually defeated, he was forced to retreat to the foot of the mountain.
In the melee, Xuanshui, who was covered in injuries and the triangular beast under his crotch was also scarred, glanced at the long knife in his hand, and saw that the long knife was still full of cold light, but there were several jagged gaps on the blade.
He didn't care, but then raised his eyes to look at the lake that was half a zhang away, still holding a knife in his left hand and a flagpole in his right hand.
The wings on his back had long been broken, and he had several arrows in his body, and there were many bloody wounds on his body, which were all over his skin.
Xiao Hu turned a blind eye to these, just silently struggled to break the shaft of the arrow, raised his head again, his eyes burst with admiration, looked at Xiao Hu, who was panting like a cow like him, and smiled lightly: "For hundreds of years, you are the first ghost to force me into such a desperate situation." ”。
"Look around, do you still have a chance of winning?" Xuan Shui stared at the blood stains on Xiao Hu's face, and said with a slightly bitter mouth: "Surrender, lest you end up dead without a corpse." ”。
A gust of wind blew, and his eyes moved left and right a few times, glancing around. But it was only a short time, and his sergeants suffered numerous casualties.
The encirclement of the Nine Shadows Army is rapidly closing inward. The Southern Barbarian warriors were either shot by the firearms, their bodies convulsed and fell to the ground with a bang, or they were slashed by the long knives of the Nine Shadows Army, and they ended up with their heads flying and their heads in different places.
What's even worse is that he was smashed into his body by the incendiary canister, and he was instantly bathed in flames, so he had to twist his rapidly scorched body and die in pain amid the screams. Or be trampled into meat by the stone ghosts, or be grabbed by the stone ghosts with both hands and torn in two.
Xiao Hu couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart when he saw it, and immediately felt a little faint and couldn't bear to slowly rise from the bottom of his heart, and the ten fingers that held the blade and flagpole were also slightly loosened.
But just when he was about to give up, tens of thousands of Southern Barbarian troops suddenly knelt down one after another under the angry gaze of the Jiuyou Army, held the blades in their hands above their heads, and shouted: "We are waiting to surrender, we are waiting to surrender." ”。
This was followed by the sound of more Southern barbarians discarding their weapons and kneeling. The remaining sergeants were still resisting, but they were no longer able to do so.
This scene made the unbearable in Xiao Hu's heart immediately turn into murderous energy. With a cold look in his eyes, he suddenly clenched the flagpole and waist knife, and without saying a word, he spread his four hooves and rushed towards Xuanshui!
"Fight for Your Majesty, for the Nanban!" "When Xiaohu deceived himself, he held his waist knife in his backhand, and at the same time stabbed the tattered flag back, and the tip of the flagpole was aimed at the Xuanshui Adam's apple, carrying a howling wind, and it was swept away like lightning.
"Something without bones. With a flash of cold light, Xuanshui hurriedly leaned over, dodged the blow, and then roared angrily: "Are you fighting for a ghost who brings you a collar that only animals bring all day long?"
The flagpole swept against his back, whistling the rider of the wolf cavalry who had followed him down with one shot.
The roar shook the heavens and the earth, and suddenly made Ben be driven by the lake again, and the soldiers who hesitated to turn against the water were stunned after hearing the words, and after thinking for a while, they decided to surrender without hesitation.
Xuan Shui, who straightened up, saw that Xiao Hu, who had already arrived at his side, swung his waist knife at his chest.
Xuan Shui asked angrily, "You actually want to fight for a ghost who treats you all as beast souls!", while raising his knife vigorously, accurately blocking the knife that Yu Hu slashed at his chest.
The two blades collided with each other, and sparks erupted. While the two ghosts and tigers were numb, a slight cracking sound came from their respective swords.
In the sound of questioning, Xiao Hu was suddenly stunned in place, but after a breath, the foolish loyalty in his heart made him refuse to give up, so he had to say softly with a little helplessness in his eyes: "After all, he is my ......."
Before the word "down" could be spoken, Xuan Shui suddenly exerted force on his hand, and the two knives with different shapes were immediately squeezed and broken. The Xuanshui Beast with the broken knife in his hand rushed forward, and the horizontal knife slashed at the neck of Yuhu.
