The wind was blowing, and there was a cold in the shadows that scattered with the wind.

Xiao Shizhu was stunned in place, and the army behind him was the same, they all slowly raised their heads, and their eyes moved up little by little to the one in front of him, so tall that they had to raise their heads hard to see the sand mountain on the top of the mountain.

Xiao Shizhu took a look at it and sensed that it contained a familiar ghostly aura.

This is this rich familiar ghostly aura, condensing the sand and stones, so that they do not scatter and gather into a mountain of sand.

And in this vast Yellow Spring, the only one who can do this, and is willing to save Xiao Shizhu, is the Yellow Spring that he has seen and told him about the secret passage before.

The sand mountain in front of him is still being built, and the sand and gravel around him are rolling over rapidly, and after merging into the sand mountain, the sand mountain is getting higher and higher.

On the other side of the mountain, those Huangquan ghost soldiers who stopped couldn't cross the mountain for a while, so they could only pace back and forth under the sand mountain, racking their brains and couldn't come up with a countermeasure in an instant.

At this moment, the two sides of the sand mountain continued to stretch, surrounding the east and west sides of the passage.

In the blink of an eye, the sand mountains that were originally lined up formed a crescent shape, and all the other places around the passage except for the north have been protected.

The ghost soldiers of Huangquan on the other side of the mountain were even more difficult to surround and continue to attack.

At this moment, a voice echoed in Xiao Shizhu's ears that only he could hear: "Son of God, go quickly, I'll stop those ghost soldiers for you." Remember the promise you made to me. ”。

This voice, Xiao Shizhu felt familiar when he heard it. After a little recollection, I recognized that it was Huang Quan's voice. Talking to Huang Quan in his heart, he said, "Well, I will keep my promise." ”。

"Let's go, the nobles help each other, the enemy can't catch up for the time being, and we just take advantage of this to leave. Xiao Shizhu immediately turned around and said aloud to the ghost soldiers behind him: "I'll take you out of here, and we'll go home together." ”。

Ke Yun and Wutou, who hadn't had time to leave, nodded heavily without thinking, and beckoned the army to enter the passage one after another.

Xun Xiang stood beside Xiao Shizhu and asked in a low voice, "Son of God, what happened to the bottom?"

"If you want to hear the story, when you go back, prepare the dragon liver melon for me, and I'll tell you slowly." Xiao Shizhu, who didn't say anything in detail, watched the ghost soldiers enter the passage one by one, and didn't say anything more.

The ghost soldiers of Huangquan outside the sand mountain thought of a way to bypass the sand mountain after a while.

Their cavalry split in two and outflanked the east and west.

But before they could take a few steps, the ground under the hooves immediately collapsed. The cavalry mounts, the hooves of the beasts sank under the ground one after another, and immediately there was fine sand left, burying the hooves firmly in the ground, and no matter how the mounts moved, they could not pull the hooves out of the ground.

In the eyes of these Huangquan ghost soldiers, it is really strange that there are many things every year, especially this year.

First of all, Xiao Shizhu was able to mobilize an army of 100,000 and flee with him, and then Xiao Shizhu broke the curse of the Baili Swamp for thousands of years.

Not only did they pass through it unscathed, but they could suddenly appear near the passage. Which one of these things, it is not the Huangquan ghost soldiers who watched it were stunned and puzzled.

Now he can hack Xiao Shizhu to death with a random weapon, and suddenly pull up a tall sand mountain from the ground, blocking the way of the ghost soldiers of Huangquan, not to mention, and letting the cavalry's mounts, all of which are beast hooves sink into the ground and cannot move.

Strange things happened one after another, which caught the Huangquan ghost soldiers off guard.

After a long time, they controlled the beast and did not move, and then they thought of turning over and getting off the back of the beast's soul, and along with the infantry, they held their swords high and walked along the foot of the mountain, looking for a gap.

But now it seems that God wants to be against them. The ground, which had been solid, suddenly became soft as a desert.

It was already difficult to walk on this deep and shallow foot, but after a few steps, the boots were filled with sand, which made their feet hurt, and they had to take a few steps to stand on the spot, take off their boots, and pour out all the sand filled inside, and shake them off.

By the time they had made a detour to the north of the passage, which was not surrounded by sand mountains, it was already an hour later. Surrounded on three sides by the sand mountain passage, it is restored to normal, but it is just an ordinary archway, standing proudly above the wilderness.

Between the stone pillars of the archway, there is no longer muddy water that gathers but does not disperse.

As for Xiao Shizhu and his ghost soldiers who had gathered around here before, they were also gone. The Buddha has never appeared, nor has he ever been to the Yellow Spring.

The wind blows, and the whining sound around the torii continues to echo.

The endless tall sand mountain began to slowly collapse, and it became shorter and shorter little by little. Eventually, they scattered into waves of sand that spread out on the ground around the passage.

When the sand mountain completely collapsed, the desperate ghost soldiers around them were already buried in the sand. A quarter of the torii-shaped passage was buried in the sand forever.

And the ghost soldiers of Huangquan were all distressed and frowned. Xiao Shizhu ran away, and their ghost head was no longer his own......

Yuque City, in the ghost square of Suzaku City in the south city, there is a ghost house surrounded by high walls and deep courtyards.

The courtyard is divided into five parts: front, middle and back, and left and right, which are connected with brick-built arched corridors, which are very similar to the underground palaces of some ancient tombs in the world. The door frame of the gate of the courtyard is square, and there are two layers of lines on it and on both sides. The stone door of the double fold is carved on the head, making a gluttonous ring pattern. A white paper lantern hangs high on the door.

This level of ghost mansion compound, like those courtyards in the city, is generally inhabited by people who are either rich or noble in the Nine Secluded Country.

And this ghost house is inhabited by Hu Lan, the younger brother of the Qingqiu Fox King.

Since the alliance between the two countries and the retreat together, he served as the liaison officer of the Qingqiu Fox Country, and took the whole family to live in the Nine Shadows Country according to Xiao Shizhu's request.

However, whether it was Jiuyouguo or Xiao Shizhu, they didn't take him as a hostage, didn't torture him or restrict his freedom, and gave him a life of fine clothes and food.

In addition to not breaking the law and not being involved in the internal affairs of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, this Hu Lan family does not have too many restrictions here, and lives freely and freely like other ghost people.

After nightfall that day, Hu Lan sat in the brightly lit main house in the middle courtyard, sipping the fragrant tea of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and her face was comfortable.

Looking around, and then looking at the good tea in his hand, Hu Lan, thinking back to his days in Qingqiu Fox Country, was a little happy.

At the beginning, he was going to break his heart for his brother and ghost people who sat on the throne in the Qingqiu Fox Country. Now, he's here at a leisurely pace.

Except for joint operations, he has something to do when it is necessary to discuss. And the food, drink, and housing are much better than when they were in the Qingqiu Fox Country.

Thinking of this, Hu Lan narrowed her eyes slightly, and in her long and pointed fox mouth, she couldn't help humming a little song. The two long legs covered with thick fox fur also lifted Erlang's legs, and they shook and trembled.

This kind of leisurely and comfortable time did not let Hu Lan enjoy it for too long.

After a while, a fox ghost covered in fiery red rushed in from outside the door, shouting, "Father, it's not good." Oh no, something happened. ”。

This shout not only ruined Hu Lan's Yaxing, but also frightened him suddenly, and the teacup in his hand was almost thrown out.

It is a shape like a blooming lotus flower, the mouth edge is made of a five-petal flower mouth arc, and the outer wall is pressed out of the concave five ridges, forming a five-petal boundary effect, and the tea cup is plain inside and outside the tea cup without lines. The whole body is verdant and moist like jade, and the green glaze is bright and even, like ice and jade. It was the refined utensils of the official kiln of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and Xiao Shizhu rewarded him; when he was in the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, Hu Lan had never used such good utensils, and he had always loved it.

This almost thrown out scared him into a cold sweat.

At this time, the fox ghost, who was red and had only a long tail behind his thighs, was already standing in front of him.

"Fox Qingyun, Fox Qingyun, when will you stop being so reckless?" After Hu Lan scolded, she carefully put the tea cup on the table at hand.

Then he calmed down and asked unhurriedly, "What happened? Did the sky fall or did the earth fall?"

His son took a breath, looked around to the left and right, and when he saw that there were still a few servants standing around, he hurriedly pulled them back.

After the users went down, this fox Qingyun whispered in the ear of his Lao Tzu Hu Lan: "There was an accident in the palace, Tu Yaoqing fell and killed the three lords of the Nine Shadows King." ”。

Hu Lan was stunned when she heard this, her heart sank, and her expression of surprise instantly spread all over her face. At the same time, his son told Hu Lan about the whole thing.

After listening to everything, Hu Lan was still dumbfounded, and sat on the chair, unable to recover for a long time, with a look of surprise in her eyes.

Hu Qingyun raised his hand and shook it in front of his eyes, and Hu Lan slowly came to his senses, but immediately opened his mouth and shouted bitterly: "Confused, confused." Why is Tu Yaoqing so confused. ”。

Hu Qingyun on the side took a step back and slowly lowered his head, not daring to look directly at his father's complicated expression of hatred and regret.

But soon, Hu Lan also noticed her son's actions, turned her head at the moment, glared at her son and snorted angrily, and asked in a deep voice: "Hu Qingyun, the idea that a mother is precious to her son and can do whatever she wants, did you instill it in Tu Yaoqing?"

He knew that his son was anti-guest-oriented, and secretly stretched out his hand a little longer. It's just that after all, they are flesh and blood, as long as Hu Qingyun is not too excessive, Hu Lan also turns a blind eye

Hu Lan didn't dare to raise her head, and her heartbeat was stared at violently by her father. At the same time, he waved his hand again and again, and denied it repeatedly: "There is no such thing, absolutely nothing." ”。

"I hope not. Hu Lan said this in a deep voice, stood up, paced back and forth in the spacious and brightly lit main room, and at the same time frowned and thought, and said, "The time is not yet yet, you hot-blooded little devils must not do anything impulsive and out of line." ”。

"Of course. Hu Qingyun replied urgently, and finally looked up.

"What about the little boy?" stopped pacing, stood in front of Hu Qingyun, and asked worriedly, "Didn't you get sitting?"

Hu Qingyun laughed, the one who laughed proudly.

"Of course not. Immediately afterwards, Hu Qingyun lowered his voice and said to Hu Lan: "Father, not to mention that this Nine Shadows Kingdom has already abolished the method of joint sitting, and there is no way to sit together. Let's just talk about this matter, dealing with the ** of this ghost country - the ghost mother. This ghost has an advantage and a disadvantage, that is, he never kills innocents indiscriminately. The little boy is fine now, and she also ordered that the little boy must be protected. ”。

As soon as these words came out, Hu Lan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The time has not come, the little boy must be saved." Now that it's been saved, there's hope. ”。

Hu Lan, who had just finished speaking, immediately looked up at her son who nodded a few times, and asked rhetorically: "Is it really not the fallacy that you went to instill in Tu Yaoqing that the mother and son are expensive, and they must be able to do nonsense?"
