Entering the Ghost Mother Palace, looking at those buildings made of pure copper, I was dazzled by the long qin. Although the Guangming Palace of Zhurongguo is also very majestic, it is all built of stone, and it is very simple, but there is no ghost mother palace so splendid and gorgeous.

In addition, the layout in the inner courtyard is all based on nature, which is higher than nature. There are stones in the wood, waterfalls on the stones, waterfalls under the waterfalls, flowers bloom in the water, quite elegant cultural conception, so that this prince, who has never been out of the country, is dazzled to see.

Changqin slowed down, looked left and right, and kept chattering. Ghost Qian'er didn't urge him, but followed closely and patiently accompanied him.

After admiring it for a long time, he was attracted to the Vientiane Palace.

On the main hall, Changqin's surprised expression was the same as when Xiao Shizhu first arrived in Vientiane Palace; almost all the ghosts in the underworld thought that the ghost mother country was small and poor, but they didn't know that stainless steel weapons were a huge profit in the underworld, which was turbulent from time to time. And this technology is not even available to the Emperor Xudu except for the ghost mother. That's why the ghost mother country is rich, and the palace can be built so magnificently.

"I have seen the ghost mother king, and I wish the lord of the country a long life. After seeing enough, Changqin hurriedly stepped forward, stood under the high platform in the depths of the main hall, bowed to the ghost mother, and said: "I am ordered by my father to bring some small gifts to the lord of the country and General Xiao, please smile." ”。 After finishing speaking, he took out a list booklet from his arms and handed it to Ghost Qian'er.

"The prince is polite, and I convey my sincere thanks to the Fire King Zhurong on behalf of this king. I wish him a long and healthy life and a long life. Ghost Qian'er presented the list to the ghost mother, and after the ghost mother unfolded it for a first glance, she closed the booklet and glanced at the long qin, and said with a pleasant face: "Sit down and watch the tea." ”。

Changqin generously sat on the chair prepared for him by the maids, and after receiving the hot tea offered by Ghost Qian'er, he opened the quilt lid and sniffed the light tea fragrance rising with the heat in the cup, and his face was intoxicated;

"The prince has good eyesight. The ghost mother smiled slightly and said, "It's the feather man cloud." Prince, you taste it, if you think it tastes delicious, when you go back, the king will prepare a cart for you to take back. ”。

Her generosity touched Changqin greatly, and she said, "Then thank you to the lord." ”。 As he spoke, he scraped the tea powder with the cover and tasted it carefully.

"Entrance shengjin, good tea!" After a few sips, the satisfied Changqin smashed his mouth, reminiscing about the sweetness in his mouth for a long time, and looked around curiously, but after seeing that there was only him in the hall except for the maid and the ghost mother, he slowly asked: "Lord of the country, is General Xiao here?"

He said that it was boring to stay on Shuoyue Island these days, and he went out for a walk. The ghost mother smiled indifferently, and after talking nonsense with a flat face, she asked, "What, the prince has something to do with him?"

"Yes. Changqin drank the teacup that was almost bottomed out, handed it to Ghost Qian'er, and after bowing his head slightly to Ghost Qian'er, he turned his head to look at the ghost mother, and said straight to the point: "Don't hide it from the lord of the country, I came this time, in addition to visiting you and General Xiao, I also want to talk about cooperation with your country." ”。

"What kind of cooperation?" Although the ghost mother's expression was still flat, she secretly had an extra heart and a little vigilance; Xiao Shizhu had already explained to her that there were no eternal enemies and no permanent allies, and during the period when he was no longer in the country, he wanted the ghost mother to have more eyes in everything, don't be trapped.

And the ghost mother has been the lord of the country for so many years, and she also knows this reason, so as soon as Changqin spoke, she was a little more vigilant in her heart.

"It's military cooperation. Changqin replied casually, and he was not shocked on the surface, but he was actually anxious. His old father, Wang Zhurong, is old, and he learned from the mouth of the imperial doctor that Zhu Rong has been coughing up blood at night recently, and his health is not as good as before day by day. As a son, he knows that Zhu Rong's only wish now is two: one is to watch him get married and have children, and the other is to defeat Gonggong again.

This is one of them easy to do, as the prince of the princely states, he is also a veritable second generation of officials in the underworld, and he is not ugly, he is handsome and rich, it is not difficult to find a female ghost to marry and have children, but it is difficult to do this second.

After thousands of years of operation in the underworld, the Gonggong country has become a powerful country with abundant granaries and strong soldiers, and it is not that Zhurong can destroy the country with the strength of one country. And if it can't be destroyed, for Zhu Rong, it will not be regarded as a real defeat of the Communist Party.

Now there is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in front of Changqin, the Allied Ghost Mother Country has taken the Toutou State in the northeast of the Communist Workers' Country, and Zhurong Kingdom is in the west of the Communist Country, and the two countries can join forces to flank the Communists, so that they can't take care of the left and right.

Although the ghost mother country is not large, and the population is only one-third of the communist country, but the ghost mother country has a well-known tiger and wolf division in Xuanyan Continent, and it is said that this army is well-equipped and well-trained, and can defeat three enemies with one, that is Xiao Shizhu's Xiao family army. Therefore, Changqin believes that the ghost mother country has the strength to fight the Gonggong country with the Zhurong country and divide its territory equally.

This time, Changqin came all the way to Shuoyue Island, and he was given full authority to discuss this matter with Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother. But Changqin was a little worried, the ghostly Xiao Shizhu, after hearing this, would he agree? After all, Xiao Shizhu's original alliance with them was a trade rather than a military operation.

"I see. Hearing this, the ghost mother showed a faint look of embarrassment, and said slowly with a sneer: "But Prince Changqin, this matter is very important, I am afraid that I will have to wait for this king to discuss with the ministers, as well as my husband Xiao Shizhu, before I can reply to you." ”。

"Understood. Although the ghost mother did not agree, she said that it could be discussed, so that he could see a glimmer of light, so he smiled and said: "I would like to stay in your country for a few days, take a walk to see the beautiful scenery of Shuoyue Island, and wait for good news." ”。

"Okay. The ghost mother nodded her head, got up and said, "The prince has worked hard all the way, please go down and rest for a while, Qian'er, send the prince to live in Honglu Temple (an institution that received foreign guests in ancient times), and let them entertain the prince well." After finishing the matter, I went to inform the Shang Shan Supervisor and asked them to prepare a state banquet and the outer court to entertain the prince Changqin tonight. ”。

"No. Ghost Qian'er replied and said to Changqin: "Prince, please come with me." ”。

After Changqin got up and said goodbye, the ghost mother sat on the throne again, and after thinking for a while, she made up her mind and said: "Promise, quickly send Yu people to send an eight-hundred-mile expedited to Black Dragon Island, and ask General Xiao to return quickly." ”。 She didn't want to sweep away Xiao Shizhu's prosperity, but now she has to do it......

Xiao Shizhu on Black Dragon Island is already a little happy.

He originally planned to stay in Linglong City for three days, but he never thought that he would be easily seduced by Lai Yueqi if he couldn't control it and did it deliberately.

He had a good time, and he had no intention of leaving until the fourth day.

Early this morning, he asked Xia Xing for fishing rods, bait, and other things, and took Lai Yueqi King Kong and a team of soldiers out of the city, saying that he was going to go fishing in the mountains near the pass, which was very leisurely and elegant.

They found a creek near Longpan Pass and started fishing.

The breeze was slow, and the crystal silver of the stream was as clear as silver and shook and rolled in front of him. When the jade beads splashed, the stream slapped against the bluestone on the bank of the stream, making a natural sound like plucking the strings. There are beautiful people by his side, which makes Xiao Shizhu very comfortable.

After dropping the fish for a long time, seeing that the fish basket had been filled, and seeing that it was not early, Xiao Shizhu got up and left with them.

"Moon girl, are you having fun today" Xiao Shizhu picked an unknown bright little wildflower from the side of the road, and asked as she walked after helping Lai Yueqi pin her hair.

"Happy. Lai Yueqi generously wrapped her arms around him, smiling like a flower, her face was overflowing with satisfied pleasure, and after biting her lip gently, she said, "As long as I can follow Engong, I will be happy." ”。

"But I can't bring you back to Shuoyue Island yet, it's not that I'm afraid of my wife, and of course she won't object. Xiao Shizhu sighed lightly and said slightly apologetically: "But the reconstruction of Linglong City and the newly built ordnance prison are inseparable from you." I've wronged you!".

"It's okay, not to mention that even if I go back to Shuoyue Island, I may not be able to see you every day. Lai Yueqi smiled and said very sensibly: "Besides, the big husband is ambitious in all directions, and I don't like Engong to nest in a woman's bed every day, so small!"

"Hahaha. Xiao Shizhu smiled heartily when he heard this, and suddenly remembered that the ghost mother had also told him about it in private, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I have done a lot of evil in the world, but I have not been retributed in the underworld, and there are blessings." I watched two girls in a row, both of them are atmospheric and sensible, and it's worth it. ”。

As they spoke, the group of ghosts had already reached the edge of the Fire Lake Wasteland. The Linglong City, which is close at hand, is illuminated by the sunset and the dark red fire rising in the lake of fire, showing a faint orange-red, and the smoke that can be seen everywhere in the city surrounds the sky above the city, and the smoke and clouds are quite poetic.

They hadn't taken a few steps forward, and suddenly three or five black-clothed people rushed out from behind them, each with a ruthless face, without saying a word, stepped forward with a single knife in hand, and killed him after dancing a few knife flowers.

This happened suddenly, and when he was caught off guard, a soldier was instantly stabbed to death by these black-clothed men.

Thankfully, the other sergeants also reacted immediately to the screams of the soldier who died before he died.

Under King Kong's shout: "Escort!", the guards immediately calmed down, and after pulling out the swords at their waists, they split into two. One team protected Xiao Shizhu and Lai Yueqi, and the other team rushed forward and mingled with the people in black.
