[514] Negotiations

The mountain wind blowing outside the cave whistled in the cave. At the same time, in the braziers on both sides below the high platform, the faint green ghost fire swayed, illuminating the surroundings of the stone platform flickering and brightening, and there was a kind of indescribable weirdness.

After a glance, although the goddess was calm on the surface, there was already a trace of curiosity in her heart.

Mi Hai, the eating ghost in front of him, smiled, and there was no other expression on his face except for the kindness and calmness revealed in his smile, and he couldn't even see the slightest fear.

The Lu Xian'er guards guarding the surroundings under the platform invariably widened their eyes and looked at the outspoken Mi Hai with a look of surprise and a little admiration.

"General Mi, is this seeing death as home?" After a moment of silence, the goddess smiled indifferently, and asked rhetorically: "Aren't you afraid that I will immediately arrest you and send you to the king of Xiazhou for disposal?"

"Don't be afraid, aren't you disappointed in him too?" Mi Hai was still not afraid, and after slowly answering, he put away the smile on his face, originally squinting, but at this time, his eyes were a little more cold, and after a pause, he said in a deep voice: "Many of the sergeants under my command have families, and when our lord abandoned their families and took away their family's food reserves, it was Xiao Shizhu who gave their family fish and meat, so that these ghost people survived. From this point of view, if it is to be in the Northern Yin Dynasty, now I don't care if my subordinate family is alive or dead, I would rather be loyal to the Nine Shadows Kingdom. ”。

Although his voice was not loud, the Lu Xian'er guards who were standing quietly under the platform were even more surprised when the echo dispersed, and they were all dumbfounded.

This is the territory of Xiazhou Kingdom, and the other party dares to tell the truth in front of them, without thinking, and says that the king of Xiazhou is a beast, then the courage of this ghost is enough to make these ghosts admire.

"But isn't all this caused by the Nine Shadows King?" Gu Shooting Goddess, who was already tempted, still did not change her face, and asked Mi Hai Youyou: "Without his invasion and his blockade of the coast, the lord would not have fled north to avoid the military disaster." ”。

Although she also felt extremely disgusted with the king of Xiazhou, and had already secretly resented it, she couldn't rush to show her approval. After all, she didn't know if this sudden Mi Hai really wanted to turn against the king of Xiazhou, or did she come to test her to trick her?

"That is also the lord listened to the slander, and first sent troops to fight the Longju Mountain Pass of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Without thinking or hesitating, Mi Hai blurted out without hesitation when the culture of Gu Shooting Goddess landed.

"If the goddess does not agree with Mi's point of view, then it is fine; Seeing that she had said a lot, but the ancient snake goddess was still indifferent, just with a smile instead of a smile, looking at herself with interest, after a moment of silence, Mi Hai sighed helplessly, shook her head and said: "From now on, you will be your loyal minister, I will be my thief, and we will say goodbye." ”。

Unexpectedly, good words and persuasion would not work, and it was useless to provoke the generals, Mi Hai didn't want to continue talking, so he simply turned around and left.

"I'll be when you haven't been. And the goddess who was sitting on the high platform did not stay, but said in a calm tone, "Send off guests." After that, she continued to play with the jade flute in her hand.

Soon after Mi Hai was sent out of the cave, the commander of the guards standing under the stone platform turned around and bowed to the goddess Gu on the stone platform, his face was a little confused and anxious, and he whispered in a low voice: "General, why don't you agree to General Mi? We have long been dissatisfied with the king of Xiazhou, and we only ...... because of your face."

"Shut up!" Gu Shot Priestess stopped spinning and playing with the jade flute in her hand, her face suddenly turned solemn, and before the commander could finish speaking, she was interrupted by a scolding, and then asked sharply: "Are you pigs?

"I didn't even say a greeting when I came up, so I bluntly said that I wanted to rebel, obviously it was the old thing sent by the king of Xiazhou to test me. The goddess who snorted angrily suddenly slapped the armrest of the stone chair, her face turned into a faint anger, and she stared at the direction of the cave entrance and scolded: "And is it necessary to make a rebellion such a thing as pinning your head to your belt?

After finishing speaking, she glared at the commander fiercely, and the other party was suddenly shocked, and then raised his head and slowly lowered it, and after a little thought, he was like an enlightened person, and after laughing, he hurriedly said: "Yes, what the general taught is that his subordinates are stupid." ”。

"Stand down, General Ben is going to rest. Gradually, she put away her anger, slowly leaned her back on the back of the chair, and closed her eyes to recuperate.

With Mi Hai's sudden visit today, she was sure that many of the Xiazhou troops in the city had complained to the king of Xiazhou because the king of Xiazhou had abandoned their families, and then their families were saved by the king of Jiuyou. Therefore, the king of Xiazhou was afraid, so he sent a general to come and shoot the words of the goddess.

As long as the goddess and the 50,000 deer fairy ghost soldiers under her command do not rebel, then the king of Xiazhou will not be afraid of the ghost soldiers in the city who are full of complaints.

And she was also extremely disgusted with the king of Xiazhou, but she didn't want to do it immediately. Today, she remained silent and rejected Mi Hai's proposal, but she also gave King Xiazhou a peace of mind pill. Even if she wants to rebel, the goddess will not do it when the king of Xiazhou is on guard.

She asked the other party to let down their vigilance and make a surprise attack when they were at ease, so that the other party would not need to be taken by surprise, after all, although there were ghost soldiers who complained, there were not many. Around the king of Xiazhou, there are mostly ghost soldiers and civil and military ministers who have been influenced by the education of foolishness and loyalty, and even if they have resentment, they are still loyal to the king of Xiazhou.

The goddess of Gu shot to ensure that her uprising was like a sharp steel knife, stabbing her opponent in the heart in one fell swoop, leaving the opponent with no chance to fight back and turn over.

After a long time, immersed in the silence of the cave, the goddess raised her head slightly, and looked at the roof of the cave, where the firelight could not shine, and there was a large shadow there, which could not be seen through as clearly as her future.

"Xiao Shizhu, the king of the Nine Shadows, I really want to see if you are as rumored to be, you are cunning and unscrupulous, but you are also very good at being a person. When the goddess said this silently in her heart, the expectant gaze in her eyes flashed......

In the city of Manjiang, the palace of the king of Xiazhou, which is less than one-tenth the size of the Yuque Palace, is located in the middle of the city. The river outside the city was introduced into the city along the waterway under the water gate, forming a circular moat around the palace wall. The layout of the palace inside the wall is the same as that of other ghost countries, all of them sit in the north and face south and sleep in front and back, and there is nothing special about the red bricks and blue tiles.

The only distinctive place is that there are no stone statues such as stone lions and stone unicorns at the entrance of each palace, but a stone statue of a deer with a forehead like a finch, horns and a snake tail; it seems that the king of Xiazhou has an obsession with this kind of beast soul and forgets to sleep and eat, not only the stone beast used in front of the palace gate and the palace is a Feilian beast, but even the palace has raised a lot of this kind of beast soul.

And those flying beasts that were raised in the palace by the king of Xiazhou did not have time to take them away when the king of Xiazhou fled.

When Xiao Shizhu entered the palace, these herbivorous beast souls were all fed by no ghosts, and they devoured the plants and trees in the palace, but they were still dying of hunger, and they were all thin and out of shape. Xiao Shizhu took a lot of effort to get these flying beasts out of starvation in just over ten days.

And now, he wants to use these beast souls that can fly with the wind and breathe strong wind, and use the ghosts of Xiazhou who have surrendered to form a cavalry.

Xiao Shizhu, who had nothing to do, stood in front of the main hall in the middle of the palace after wandering around, looking at the square not far away, Zuo Fan and the air cavalry who had been trained.

This time he personally went east, and the Nine Shadows Country brought by Xiao Shizhu will only have Zuo Fan as a ghost. This ghost has the true inheritance of Yingzhao, and is good at riding and air combat, in a place like Dongyizhou, where there are many plains and rivers, Zuo Fan and his air cavalry can be one as ten.

Zuo Fan did not disappoint Xiao Shizhu, just in the battle of Junzi Port, he and his air cavalry killed tens of thousands of enemies. Now Zuo Fan has started a new mission to train a new air cavalry for Xiao Shizhu.

There are not many garrisons in Dongyi Continent of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, but there are many places to be guarded. And there are enemies on all sides, from the Xudu Army and the Corpse Soul Army, to the army of Xiazhou Kingdom that has not yet surrendered, and other small countries of Dongyi that are eyeing them, all surrounded by the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Without the addition of new troops, this war really cannot be fought.

"My lord. Shen Ji, who was sitting on the jade fence in front of Xiao Shizhu, looked as far as Xiao Shizhu's eyes could see, and said slowly: "The farmers and merchants near Manjiang City have replied; according to your orders, first supply the soldiers and civilians in the city with fishery, and then the surrounding barren fields have been planted with grain at this time." Some vegetables can be eaten in a few dozen days, but ghost food will have to wait several months for them to ripen. ”。

"Well, all localities continue to solve the problem of eating and drinking in this way. Xiao Shizhu looked in front of him without squinting, and the air cavalry in the square were already beginning to practice their combat formations, and said casually: "As the saying goes, relying on the mountains to eat the mountains depends on the water to draft the water. We guard so many rivers that it would be a great shame to starve to death. ”。

"You always have a way, and this is what the minister admires the most. Shen Ji turned his head, looked at Xiao Shizhu, and said with respect.

"The method is the same as that of the female ghost, and there will be a *squeeze. Xiao Shizhu looked down at Shen Ji, raised his hand and lightly tapped his temple with his index finger, revealing a light smile: "If you think about it, there will always be a way." ”。

After finishing speaking, Xiao Shizhu suddenly put away his smile, smacked his lips and scolded: "But speaking of female ghosts, this king of Xiazhou is so picky; ”。

"This King of Xiazhou is not too good a woman. Shen Ji pursed his lips and said, "I heard that the only hobby of the king of Xiazhou is to pile up the gold, silver and jewels together, and then circle around them to watch, but he is not very willing to spend flowers. ”。

"This hobby is not afraid of dazzling?" Xiao Shizhu smiled indifferently and said nothing more.

The matter of the female dependents is just a joke between him and Shenji, and he is really bored with the ridicule of his opponent, and he is really in the mood to find him.

It's not that he's not good, it's just that after living with the ghost mother for a long time, the relationship has become more and more stable, and the rest of his thoughts are left to Lai Yueqi. And he is still a father, and those little hobbies in the past have to be restrained a little.

Even if it is pretended, Xiao Shizhu has to create the image of a great father for Xiao Fuling, although this is indeed a bit tiring.

At this moment, the two Nine Shadow National Army with Shui Dadu came from a distance and hurried towards this side. When Xiao Shizhu saw it, he slowly turned around and faced Shui Dadu.

After the water eater stood still in front of him, he first clasped his fists and saluted before saying, "Lord Qiqi, the corpse of Haobi led a pair of guards to the city, saying that he wanted to see you and negotiate with our country. ”。

"This old thing is here in person?" The suspicious Xiao Shizhu frowned and muttered, "What kind of judgment are you talking about?"
