The cloudy moon rose, and the cold and indifferent moonlight spread between the heavens and the earth. The light of the blue moon flowed along the oval sinkhole above the Yuque Palace, and the recessed sinkhole between several mountain peaks poured like a waterfall.

The yin qi rises in the Yuque Palace, and the clouds and fog surround the halls and pavilions, and the fog is misty. The originally clear and clear moonlight became hazy after shining into the palace, a little less gloomy, and more poetic.

In the main building of Juexiang Garden, Xiao Fuling patiently listened to the ghost mother and told the reason: "And Lu Wu is also a little excessive, relying on your father's trust, he stretched out his hand to the school palace. The ghosts in this morning's list were all secretly selected by him. In the future, he will definitely be loyal to him, and he will look forward to it. Although Lu Wu did this, it was not an anti-evil move, but it was also a selfish move. Once they agree, then the power of the old ministers' faction will be even greater, and once they want to rebel, your father and I will be caught off guard. ”。

Hearing this, Xiao Fuling suddenly widened her big watery eyes, revealing a look of astonishment. After she was stunned for a moment, she suppressed the astonishment in her heart, and asked in a low voice: "No, is it? Uncle Lu Wu is the opposite sex brother of my father?

It's just that the voice is getting smaller and smaller, and it seems that even Xiao Fuling feels that she is defending Lu Wu, and she is a little pale.

After being ordered by her mother, Xiao Fuling also thought of Lu Wu's habit of placing cronies in various departments of the country over the years. So that if there is anything going on in the country, Lu Wu will know in less than a quarter of an hour. And Lu Wu's house is full of friends, with thousands of customers.

Not to mention that the power is getting bigger and bigger, and there are many ghost ministers and ghost generals in the court. Lu Wu's current power in the Nine Shadows Kingdom is second only to Xiao Shizhu and the Ghost Mother.

Such a big power made Lu Wu a little fluttering. Just thinking about it, Xiao Fuling didn't want to believe that Lu Wu would have selfish intentions. After thinking about it, I still feel that my mother's precautions are somewhat redundant. Or is it a little too nervous?

"Alas, you're still young after all, and it's normal not to know how powerful it is. The ghost mother saw that her daughter also had an innocent side, so she sighed lightly, then stroked the soft black hair on her little head and thought to herself, and said in a low voice: "You just need to remember one thing, if he is to rule the country by you in the future, balancing the forces of all parties is an indispensable means of governing the country." Otherwise, they will not be able to check and balance each other, let alone cooperate with each other. The strong side will always have a sense of superiority invisibly, so it will disdain to cooperate with the weak side, then it will be difficult to work together. The affairs of the country cannot be pursued even though they are thousands of miles away. If administrative effectiveness is not improved, national strength will be weakened. ”。

Lying under the recital, Dahua stood up, opened his mouth wide, stuck out his tongue and yawned, and then stretched his waist and walked to Xiao Fuling's side and sat down, looked up at Xiao Fuling for a while, and then put his huge dog head on the back of Xiao Fuling's hand and arm, rubbed it back and forth, and wagged his fluffy tail.

And Xiao Lingling nodded as if she didn't understand and pondered.

The ghost mother is no longer in the majority, and she picked up a notebook from the desk and flipped through it: "Take the big flowers to play, just go to bed on time for a while, and don't leave the palace." ”。

"Well, then I'm going to play. Xiao Fuling put away her thoughts, nodded, and beckoned to Dahua: "Come, Dahua, follow me." ”。

As he spoke, he turned around and left, but every word his mother said was taken to heart.

That day, the dog Dahua looked up at the ghost mother, but did not move. Until the ghost mother said to it again: "Go, watch your little master." After that, Da Hua wagged his tail, walked forward, and chased Xiao Ling, who had already walked out of the main building.

The night breeze was slow, and the ghost fog brought by the yin qi outside the main building was varied in the wind, rolling up a few whirlpools, and then slowly dissipating.

After the ghost mother in the building has reviewed the rest of the notebook, it is almost the end of the day. She put down the pen and got up, summoned Qinglan and Chen Ruo, and asked them to take the approved notebook to the Courier Division and send it out quickly.

Tatsuruo and they answered, and left with the notebook in their arms. After stretching her waist, the ghost mother turned around the case, walked to a nearby flower stand, picked up the flower scissors, put them on the flower stand, and carefully pruned the long ribbon green leaves, so that the leaves no longer grew crazy and messy.

This plant was planted by Xiao Caryophyllus.

Looking at the weeds, moss and the verdant and verdant water-absorbing stones planted on it, the ghost mother saw things and thought of people, and thought of Xiao Shizhu.

Her husband Xiao Shizhu has been away for more than ten days, except for knowing that he has arrived on Shuoyue Island, the ghost mother has not heard any news from Xiao Shizhu. Then the ghost mother remembered that Xiao Shizhu was about to go to the barren Yellow Spring, and she couldn't help but be worried.

None of the ghosts in the underworld have ever been to the place known as the forgotten land of the ancient gods. Not to mention the good and bad luck, it is still very desolate.

As soon as she calmed down, she began to think wildly, constantly worrying about whether Xiao Shizhu would be able to eat enough in the yellow spring, and whether it would be cold? Thinking about it, she couldn't help but sigh.

"Mother of the country, the ministers and gods have important things to report. When the ghost mother's sigh landed, the voice of the giant god sounded on the side of the gate.

The ghost mother calmed down, put away her worries, calmed her face, and said, "Come in." After that, he slowly walked to the back of the recital and sat down.

"The Grade A secret report sent by Shuoyue Island didn't dare to stay overnight, so the minister had to risk his life to enter the inner court to deliver the letter. The fungus god who rushed into the table jumped on tiptoe when he came to the recital, and while leaping up to the recital, he offered the wax pill he was holding in his hand with both hands.

On the white wax pill the size of a fingernail, the word 'A' was written in red, in the middle of the white wax. Under the red and white, the red letters are unusually conspicuous.

This indicates that the secret letter of the highest level of the Nine Shadows Kingdom hidden in the wax pill is hidden.

The ghost mother took it in the palm of her hand and looked at it for a while, and then let Shen Ji retreat.

After Shen Ji left, the ghost mother's index finger and thumb worked hard together, crushing the wax pill in her hand. Ash splashed, and a rolled-up note ejected from the shattered wax shell.

The note was quickly flipped three or five times in mid-air, and it was clamped by the ghost mother with her index finger and middle finger.

The ghost mother slowly lowered her hand, slowly unfolded the paper scroll she was holding, and looked at the white and black words on the paper by the light of the light......

In Dongyingzhou, on the border south of the Qingqiu Fox Country, there is a 300-mile quicksand river that rises from the ground on the edge of the border.

This mountain sleeps across the river, the stone wall is saggy, there are many branches that do not grow in the mountain, and the three mulberry trees with only a hundred high trunks are all over the mountains. Because there are many mulberry trees in the mountain, this mountain is called Sanmulberry Mountain.

The muddy quicksand river at the bottom of the mountain flows endlessly, and the river that sweeps the river sand crosses the mountain. And beyond the wide river, it is the northland border of the Yasujin Kingdom.

And on Sansang Mountain, a pass has already been built. In such a dangerous place, as early as when it was still under the rule of the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom, a pass had been built, and a military town had been built under the mountain. It makes the border impregnable, easy to defend and difficult to attack.

After the Qingqiu Fox Kingdom handed over this place to the Nine Shadows Kingdom, the main force of the army commanded by the King of Yama drove into this pass. All the various artillery pieces of the Nine Shadows Kingdom were set up on the mountain, and they were aimed at the Xudu army on the south bank of the quicksand river at the bottom of the mountain, and they were already lined up on the riverbank.

The Jiuyou Army and the Xudu Army arrived at the north and south banks of the Liusha River for almost the same time. But both sides confronted each other across the river and did not open fire.

The Xudu army was a little frightened by the pitch-black muzzle of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, and it was the summer rainy season, and the river was so swollen that it was impossible to wade across the river. In addition, the Liusha River is turbulent, and the Xudu Army who came from afar is not familiar with the hydrology of this river, so they dare not cross it rashly.

And the Nine Shadows Army had other intentions, and it was not in a hurry to attack.

So the two sides confronted each other like this, and there was no movement for several days, but they each strengthened the pass, and at most they scolded each other a few words, but no one took the lead in attacking.

Although this kind of peace and quiet is good, the chariots and horses on both sides are waiting on the river bank, and both sides of the quicksand river are filled with a dense * smell. At any point, the two sides will suddenly attack.

So much so that on these two river banks, there is a tense and oppressive atmosphere everywhere. The ghost soldiers on both sides are all tense every nerve in their bodies anytime and anywhere. So much so that even if you go to the toilet or take a shower, you have to carry a weapon.

And on the top of the main peak of Sansang Mountain, between several tall Sansang trees and strange stones that are one zhang high, there is a high wall on the steep cliff of the sky, and the watchtowers and watchtowers stand on the top of the four directions, and the form is like the military yamen of the dock fort, standing on the top of the mountain.

After nightfall, the lights were extinguished on the surrounding stone watchtowers, and demon spirits with night eyes were sent to stay on duty, so as not to become the main target of the enemy's night attack.

In the main hall of the courtyard, King Yama, with his hands behind him, paced back and forth in the hall where only a lone lamp was lit. His brows had been slightly furrowed, and he stopped pacing from time to time, staring at the dark night outside the house in anticipation, as if he was waiting for something.

There was a faint look of anxiety on his fierce-looking face, which was not common. is also anxious, and there is also the tree swallow accompanying the lobby. It's just that Shuyan didn't pace from time to time, but kept holding the hilt of the long sword at her waist and standing by the door facing the door.

Outside, the night breeze gradually became strong and favorable, and the sky was covered with dark clouds. Rumbling thunder, thunder and lightning flashing behind the dark clouds resounded in the sky, and a heavy rain was coming.

Sure enough, after a while, there was a bright and dazzling electric light in the sky, falling from the sky. In an instant, in the dimness of the places on both sides of the quicksand river, they were illuminated by this electric light.

The rocks of the mountains, the rolling river, and the grass and trees swaying in the wind are all clearly visible from the darkness.

In the howling wind, dense raindrops the size of beans suddenly fell from the sky in a flash of lightning. The denser and denser raindrops flew in the wind, hitting the rocks, the trees, the passes and the river, making the continuous crackling sound resounding on both sides of the quicksand river.

The noisy sound of wind and rain made the waiting Yama King and Shuyan feel more anxious than less.

A moment later, another bolt of lightning fell from the sky, instantly illuminating the darkness outside the house. King Yama and Shuyan also saw the spring cold rushing in the rain by the light of lightning, and they were walking briskly towards the lobby.

On the shoulders of Chunhan, who hurriedly entered, there was still a fungus man sitting.

As soon as he entered the house, Chun Han rushed to King Yama's side with a few arrows, and said urgently: "Dashuai, you can start shelling." ”。

As soon as she finished speaking, the fungus man who accompanied her on her shoulder took over the conversation, and also said urgently: "Just as General Shuyan planned, Zhu Maichen personally led a large army into the Lingshi Forest to check the looted grain and grass materials, and he has fallen into the trap laid by the Xuanjiao in the woods. The lock army suffered heavy casualties, and the guide was killed on the spot. ”。
