[563] Awakening

The hot wind blows the sea, blowing the waves and crashing against the reefs and stone pillars around Shuoyue Island, shattering into countless splashes.

The warm cloudy light shone on the ancient wooden courtyard of General Yingzhao's mansion, spread out on the simple and elegant eaves. A little sunlight shines through the delicate auspicious cloud fairy grass pattern carving on the pane, sprinkled into the main hall, and shines on the back of Ying Lingxing to form a silhouette, which is very comfortable.

Ying Lingxing had already put away the reluctance in his eyes, and the smile on his face was bright.

Ying Zhao smiled, the look of satisfaction on his face was heavier, and at the same time, the pride in his eyes did not decrease but increased. And the shadow with tears in her eyes is also full of pride for her son.

The couple of centaurs, who looked like demon spirits, were not worried that their son would die on the battlefield, or that their son would be injured on the battlefield. They are only proud of their son being hand-picked to the front, and their hearts are surging, and they can't calm down for a long time.

In the Nine Shadows Kingdom, ninety-nine percent of the ghost people are loyal fans of Xiao Shizhu and the Ghost Mother, and they are extremely fanatical.

It is only because Xiao Shizhu canceled the slavery system, and the ghost mother completely fought for the equality of men and women for the female ghosts (in the Nine Shadows Kingdom, those who abuse and mutilate female ghosts, and maliciously commit violence against them will be 100% confiscated to the army to do coolies, and serious ones will be sent to the guillotine; this Nine Shadows Law is the ghost mother's decree. Then, after unremitting efforts, the two ghosts made every ghost in the country realize a good life of food and meat to eat on the dinner table of every ghost family in the country. In addition, it has strengthened law and order in the country, reduced crime, and increased the personal safety of ghost people. The large-scale construction of various convenient infrastructure facilities in the country, such as the spiritual canals throughout the country, and the official roads that extend in all directions in the country, such as the underworld tunnels that are large enough for sixteen large horses to travel side by side, have also reduced the unemployment rate in the country. Emphasizing agriculture and commerce as well as industrial development, and reducing various taxes, the two ghosts also have a lot of fans in the country and other parts of the underworld, and the people's base is too good to be better.

Almost all the ghosts of the Nine Shadows Kingdom, the ghosts who are parents will take the initiative to send their children to study in private schools and schools in various places, in order to be admitted to the school palace in the capital to study, and after graduation, they are not prepared for the loyalty of the court of the Nine Shadows Kingdom. or desperately want to send women to join the army and fight for Xiao Shizhu and the ghost mother.

They agreed that it was a sense of honor above all else. And once their children join the army, it is glorious if they survive the war. If they die in battle and weep with grief, they will feel proud.

Ying Zhao and his wife were no exception, the ghost mother ordered Ying Zhao to hand over the 50,000 air cavalry recruits who had completed training on Shuoyue Island to Ying Lingxing to lead, and when the Yi Zhi to help Dongyi Zhou arrived, they were so excited that they couldn't calm down the excitement in their hearts like a flood that burst the embankment for several days. Now that their son is about to go to the battlefield, their hearts are even more excited, and they can't calm down for a long time.

"I'm leaving, take care of me, daddy. Ying Lingxing bent down, and after saluting Ying Zhao and Ying'er, she turned around under the gaze of her parents and embarked on the journey in the bright cloudy light......

Dongyizhou, in the city of Manjiang.

Overlapping dark clouds spread out in the air, and the curtain of rain in the sky was like silk across the sky and the sky, hazy, knocking on the vast earth, and also blurring the streets of the city. The dense and slanting raindrops fell to the ground, spreading as softly as thin sand, and the cool rain air swept around the white walls and green tiles.

Under the breeze and drizzle, the city of Manjiang returned to the tranquility and comfort of the day before the war.

Because Xiao Shizhu used Xuan Li to protect the city wall, the siege strategy of the army of skeleton beasts hitting the city wall headfirst collapsed. Led by the surrendered Xudu Army, Youji Yan and Gu Shooting Goddess, they killed from both the east and west sides outside the city.

The army was like a hurricane rolling up on the flat ground, and in the blink of an eye, it was killed under the city. Not only did he form a three-sided attack on the corpse soul army together with the defenders in the city, but he also saw the dazzling blue light flickering in the night, the impermeable Xuanli barrier in front of the city wall, and finally convinced that Xiao Shizhu was really the legendary son of God.

As a result, these Xudu troops, who had already decided to break away from the Northern Yin Dynasty, were more sincere in their loyalty to the Nine Shadows Kingdom. Their murderous faces were enough to make the Corpse Soul Army's face change drastically, and a chill couldn't help but pass through their backs.

That night, the outside of Manjiang City was filled with the terrible and terrifying screams of the Corpse Soul Army, and the heart-rending lungs were filled with a strong breath of death.

Under the hard work of the Xudu army and the defenders, in just one hour, the corpse soul army, which was still menacing, died outside the city nine times out of ten. The army of skeletons also suffered heavy casualties, with only more than 10,000 surviving by the end of the war, of 100,000 horsemen.

The defeated corpse soul army was defeated, and the few survivors who were left had no choice but to flee in the wilderness. But the Jiuyou National Army was red-eyed because of Xiao Shizhu's fainting, and chased it violently, and after killing more than ten miles, it was only after killing more than ten miles that Ming Jin was indignant and withdrew his troops.

And Xiao Shizhu, who was carried back to the palace of Xiazhou by the military doctors that night, fainted and has not woken up because of the excessive consumption of Xuan power. Although the vital signs are still there, they remain asleep. If you count it carefully, it has been ten days now.

After discussing with Datou, as well as Yuhua and Gu Shooting Priestess, Ji Yan Zhuhai decided to block Xiao Shizhu's unconscious, which would be unfavorable to the Nine Shadows Kingdom. In order to prevent it from spreading, it will attract people with ulterior motives with conspiracies. Even for the defenders in the city, it was only claimed that Xiao Shizhu had woken up, but he was still a little weak and needed to cultivate quietly, so it was inconvenient to go out of the palace to meet the soldiers and ghost people who were defending the city.

At the same time, all military doctors must be kept strictly confidential, and come up with a cure as soon as possible.

But the mysterious and unpredictable power of Xuanli, even the ancient gods are only in the tube, and they only know a little about it after studying it for tens of thousands of years, how can a few ghost doctors in the army prescribe the right medicine?

For a while, those military doctors were even more at a loss. can only feed him some ginseng soup and water every day to maintain his ghost life.

In the drizzle, a refreshing cool breeze blew into the temple. After turning the curtains up and down, Xiao Shizhu went against the normal state of ADHD in the past and lay quietly on the couch.

With a calm face and closed eyes, he had a square pillow made of white water under his head, and a brocade quilt on his body.

The wind and rain outside the hall are denser and more concentrated, the water flow in front of the jade steps is not stopped, and the water column under the eaves is continuous. A gust of wind blew towards the main hall, and a window pane that had not yet been closed opened and closed with the wind, making a crackling sound.

Xiao Shizhu's fingers moved suddenly, then his brows trembled, and his closed eyes slowly opened. A dazzling light flashed in his eyes, illuminating the hall as bright as day in an instant. Then the blue light dissipated, and the hall was darkened again.

Xiao Shizhu, who was still a little stunned, tried to grow his lips, and suddenly spit out all the turbidity that had accumulated in his chest for ten days, and his open eyes widened.

Xiao Shizhu, who had been unconscious for ten days, finally woke up on this stormy afternoon.

After waking up for a long time, Xiao Shizhu came back to his senses from his stunned state, and suddenly felt hungry and dry. And the limbs are still stiff, and they can't even turn over.

He stuck out his tongue and licked his chapped lips, and shouted weakly, "Hell, I want to drink water, I want to eat." You have to eat the purple ghost rice, which is a specialty of Dongyizhou, as well as chicken, duck and fish. ”。

After he repeated these words a few times, the guards standing outside the gate heard his shout from the wind and rain, and hurried into the temple to check.

The sergeant stood in front of the jade couch and saw that Xiao Shizhu had woken up, and after being stunned for a moment, he immediately shouted: "The lord is awake, the lord is awake." One turned around and burst out of the hall in tears.

left the tears up and down the corners of his eyes when he turned around, and Xiao Shizhu who was lying helplessly on the bed. After watching him drift away and disappear from sight in a blink of an eye, Xiao Shizhu shouted again: "Hey, you should give me a drink of saliva first." ”。

After a long time, the news had spread throughout the palace.

Ji Yan and Gu Shooting Priestess were the first to rush over, and when they saw Xiao Shizhu wake up, they were suddenly stunned in front of the jade couch, and gradually their eyes widened with joy like a gushing spring.

"I want to drink water!" Xiao Shizhu shouted weakly again, and the goddess who was stunned in place hurriedly took off her water bag, sat on the edge of the bed, carefully helped Xiao Shizhu up, handed the water bag to Xiao Shizhu's mouth, and fed him some water.

The cool spring water entered the throat, and Xiao Shizhu's face suddenly became comfortable.

After taking a few sips, Xiao Shizhu shouted with a slight cry: "I'm hungry." ”。 Poor Baba's gaze also flashed from under his eyes.

At this moment, the goddess suddenly felt that the murderous human soul in front of her was still a little cute. His cheeks were flushed, and his heart was not calm for a long time.

Ji Yan also came back to his senses from his stunned thoughts, and hurriedly said, "I'm going to pass the meal!", then turned around and rushed out of the main hall.

After a while, a sumptuous meal of big fish and meat was sent into the main hall one after another, and was placed on the jade couch, which had been set up on the table.

Datou and Zhu Hai, as well as Yuhua and other ghost ministers and ghost generals in Manjiang City, also rushed over.

Xiao Shizhu, whose limbs were no longer too stiff, didn't even look at them, his eyes were just fixed on the food in front of him. I don't even need chopsticks, I just grab it, open the bow left and right with both hands, and gobble it up.

When the goddess saw this, she couldn't help it, covered her lips with her hands, and let out a pop in her mouth, laughing dumbly.

"What are you laughing at?" Xiao Shizhu, who had eaten a lot of food in a blink of an eye, was still as hungry as a wolf, and finally squinted at the Gu Shooting Goddess who was smiling and bent down slightly, and continued to grasp the pieces of meat in his hands, and devoured the whale.

"I laugh at the lord who has no Hades demeanor, and lives like a starving ghost. The goddess who tried to hold back her laughter laughed.

Xiao Shizhu didn't care, chewing the food in his mouth, and replied vaguely: "I'm hungry, I'm hungry, my chest is close to my back." ”。

After a pause, he swallowed the food in his mouth by the way, Xiao Shizhu clenched his fist with his right hand, beat his chest a few times, lifted the water cup, and drank all the water in the cup. After putting down the cup, he took a long breath and asked the ghosts present, "How long have I been asleep?

"Ten days. As soon as the big head answered, Zhu Hai saw Xiao Shizhu coming and going towards him, so he nodded and gave Xiao Shizhu a detailed description of the battle process.

Half an hour later, when Zhu Hai finished talking about the battle, Xiao Shizhu had already eaten and drunk. After raising his hand to wipe the grease stains on his mouth, he nodded his head with satisfaction: "This is the best news I have heard since I woke up." ”。

Xiao Shizhu stretched his feet off the jade couch, stood up on the solid ground, stretched his waist with a long yawn, looked around at the ghosts and said: "Such good news has the effect of invigorating blood and removing blood stasis; ”。

"Yes, the harvest was sent to our country yesterday, and it has been arranged in a house in the middle of the city, guarded by heavy soldiers. The big head hurriedly said to him: "There is also the Qingqiu ghost envoy who asked to marry the king, and he has also arrived in the city. ”。
