Yingying and their group of ghosts, followed Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother, and came to the Juexiang Garden.

The inner wall is covered with snow orchids, and a feast has been set up in the Fengyi Pavilion, where many orchids hang down on the top.

After the ghosts took their seats in order, Lin Cong looked around the pavilion curiously for a while, and saw that there were no other ghosts around, so he first reported the process and results of this operation to Xiao Shizhu, and then asked quietly: "Du Ziren is also an ink master, and he doesn't know that Mo Zhai is dead, or I will imitate Mo Zhai's tone and handwriting, and give him a letter to ask him to stop fighting." ”。

"No need. Xiao Shizhu waved his hand casually, and said disapprehantly: "I don't know much about the heroic tactics of the war in the south, so you don't know yet, this thing has been declared emperor and has broken away from the Mo family." ”。

"Huh?" Lin Cong was slightly stunned, stunned.

It stands to reason that a Mo Zhai person like Du Ziren, who regards Mo Zhai as a god and is loyal and extremely fanatical about Mo Zhai, is impossible to break away from the Mo family? But Xiao Shizhu's tone was affirmative, and it didn't seem like he was lying, which made Lin Cong stunned in his heart, and he couldn't calm down for a long time.

"But Lin Cong's words reminded me. The ghost mother holding Poria cocos, after a little thought, her heart moved, and the thunder and lightning that pierced the sky like a faint inspiration flashed in her mind, and then she said thoughtfully: "Maybe according to Mo Zhai's tone, I can tell the Mo people that Du Ziren has reversed the Mo family, and let the Mo family secretly fight against Du Ziren." ”。

"That's right. Xiao Shizhu's eyes lit up suddenly, and he turned his head to look at the ghost mother, and after showing an approving look in his eyes, he turned his head to look at Lin Cong, squeezed his eyebrows and smiled at the thief: "You can pass on this information to every ink person, and let them set Du Ziren as the primary target." ”。

Lin Cong's eyes showed admiration, and after sweeping away the faces of Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother, he clapped his hands violently and said, "Yes, in this way, Du Ziren will have to face internal and external troubles and be caught off guard." ”。

"Mmmm!" Xiao Shizhu was in a better mood, nodded heavily with satisfaction, raised his chopsticks and pointed to the delicious food on the table in front of him, and said, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about state affairs at the reception banquet, come to eat." ”......

Thousands of miles away, a hundred miles south of Chongshan Pass, in the southern wilderness, there is a colorful jade tree within a radius of ten miles. The roots of the jade tree are colorful from the trunk to the branches and leaves.

The roots of each jade tree are also surrounded by emerald green nether mushrooms, which glow faintly at night.

The whole forest is colorful and gorgeous, forming a beautiful scenery in the Nanban, which is full of barren grass and dead trees or no grass.

The woods are lined with earthen walls and houses, which are connected together to form a small village, which is named Wucai Village because of the colorful jade tree forest.

Just a few days ago, a group of routs came from the north in a panic, and the kind villagers of Wucai Village, seeing that they were tired, tired and hungry, took them in.

After the routs settled here, they had no desire to go any further. Little did the villagers know that their nightmare would begin.

This group of only 30,000 defeated soldiers is the Southern Barbarian Army that suffered defeat at Chongshan Pass not long ago.

After they hugged their heads and ran away, they originally retreated to a mountain stronghold south of Chongshan Pass, which was the starting point before they attacked Chongshan Pass.

But what I didn't expect was that two hours later, when the sky was slightly bright, the Nine Shadows Army quietly killed it with the help of the night that had not completely faded.

When the exhausted Southern Barbarian Army discovered the Nine Shadow Army, the Nine Shadow Army, which was less than a mile away from them, did not want to shout and curse them, and set up and calibrated the artillery, and the muzzle of the gun was pointed directly at the stronghold.

*, solid bullets and heavenly thunder cannons, as well as fire dragons out of the water and a hundred tigers rushed together did not make the southern barbarian army wait too long, and then rushed to fall from the sky. Even though the stronghold of the Southern Barbarian Army had a hard stone wall, it was impossible to resist the repeated bombardment of the direct and curved guns in the hands of the Xiao family's army.

In less than half an hour, the walls of the small stronghold had been shattered, and the Southern Barbarian army had suffered numerous casualties.

The surviving Southern Barbarian Army was frightened, and they did not dare to turn back and continued to flee south. After filming for a day, it wasn't until they rushed in front of this small village that they realized that the Nine Shadows Army had not chased after them, and they were relieved.

But when they fled, they were full of panic along the way, and not only did they lose a lot of their weapons, but they also lost all the rations they had brought with them.

Fortunately, the villagers were kind enough to eat and drink food after calming down, and they were able to feed themselves.

The defeated soldiers, who were still tired, hungry and thirsty, suddenly remembered that according to Du Ziren's military regulations, unless the soldiers who lost the battle had been killed, even if they escaped alive, they would be reduced to ghost slaves as punishment.

With no way out, the defeated soldiers simply turned their hearts on the side and used the few weapons left in their hands to rob this small village. I plan to occupy this place in the future and be a mountain king, and I don't want to go back to be a ghost slave.

For a while, food and clothing were their targets, even female ghosts from thousands of years old to seven or eight years old, as well as their own companions, snake bone women. If the villagers and snake women did not give or resist, they would be beaten or killed, and the originally peaceful and peaceful mountain village was full of sadness and wailing.

In less than a day, every corner of the village was filled with the smell of death. All the female ghosts, including those snake bone women, chose to commit suicide after being humiliated.

There were only a few old, weak, sick and disabled villagers and the defeated soldiers left in the village.

But the routs did not stop, they found that the houses in the village were not enough to live in, so in order for them to have a place to shelter from the wind and rain, they also drove the survivors of Wucai Village out of their homes and drove them out of the village.

Since then, this colorful village has become the temporary station of the Southern Barbarian Army.

Dark clouds rolled in, converging from all directions with the momentum of devouring heaven and earth, overwhelming the sky above the village and absorbing the light between heaven and earth.

In the dim world, the sultry air was filled, making the ghosts sweat hotly, and they couldn't help but take off their heavy armor one after another.

"The stock of food is almost finished. In the ancestral hall of Wucai Village, in the middle of the tablet placed in front of the already messy offering table, the one sitting on the ground, with three earthworm-like scars on his face, took off the dirty armor on his body, wiped the beads of sweat on his forehead with the back of his hand, lifted the corners of his clothes and kept shaking up and down, fanning his general's belly; ”。

The other two ghosts were silent and did not speak.

Wucai Village is a relatively wealthy village in the southern wilderness, there are thousands of hectares of fertile land outside the village, and there are streams around it, and the annual harvest is also good, so there is a lot of grain in the village.

But the stored grain is dead, it will not fall from the sky and will not grow out of the soil automatically, and the number of defeated soldiers is large, and the stored grain of pigs, cattle, sheep and chickens, and rice and corn in the village is getting smaller and smaller in a few days. The fertile fields outside the village are still uncultivated, and they are barren. Seeing that they were eating less and less, the routs began to panic.

Therefore, their leader, the human soul sitting in the middle of the ancestral hall at this time, summoned the most astute human soul of his subordinates to discuss countermeasures.

A bolt of lightning swept through the earth, illuminating the earth in an instant, and the muffled thunder followed, shaking the heavens and the earth, startling the crows that inhabited the jade forest, spread their wings and fly high.

"We can't go back. After losing the battle, he will go back and live forever in a slave collar. One of them, who was very young but had a big beard, was silent for a long time, and then there was a terror in his eyes, and he snorted lightly, and said slowly in a reasonable tone: "Since we can't go back, and there is no food, then let's continue to rob it; Anyway, there is no shortage of bandits in this land, there are not many of us, and there are many of us. ”。

It seems that he is determined to develop the profession of the king of the mountain into a lifelong career.

This person's soul name is Ma San, and he has always been the dog-headed military advisor of the big leader of this group of deserters. Don't look at him tall and thin, although he has a big beard, he looks very weak, but the bad water in his stomach and the bad ideas in his heart are as many as the stars in the Milky Way.

The idea of ordering the male ghost soldiers to rape the snake bone woman's companion in order to rape him to death in order to achieve the bad idea of saving rations came from this goods.

At that moment, his proposal was approved by the leader and the burly soul, and after thinking for a moment, the two ghosts nodded in unison.

Outside the house, a strong wind suddenly rose, sweeping away the blood rain that only falls in the Nanban area, falling from the air one after another, hitting the earth and bringing patches of red.

Cooler a little, the leader stopped fanning his clothes.

The next thing to discuss is where to grab first.

Now he still has 20,000 soldiers and horses in his hands, and it is impossible to fight a big city, but it is easy to rob a small village and town.

At that moment, the leader thought for a moment and said slowly: "I remember that there is a small town more than ten miles away in the southwest, called Jinshui Town, and there is a small gold mine nearby, there are troops stationed but troops, you can go and grab some weapons." ”。

As soon as his voice fell, the other two people had just turned their heads when they heard a few "sigh" sounds in the wind and rain in the outhouse, but because the wind and rain were too strong, the sound was not very clear.

Secondly, in the blood rain that should have been tasteless, there is still a faint taste.

The leader was slightly startled and stood up.

At the same time, violent explosions and earth-shaking roars resounded through the sky and earth with the sudden light of fire in the wind and rain. The small ancestral hall also swayed slightly from side to side.

The dust on the beams of the house shook off one after another.

The hearts of the three ghosts in the ancestral hall were shocked, and there was consternation in their eyes, and they looked at the darkness outside the house, and the fire light rose with thick smoke.

"Oh no, no. A panicked guard rushed into the ancestral hall one after another, crouched at the leader's feet and exclaimed, "The Nine Shadows Army is coming to raid!"
