Chapter 408: Grassland Battle
In the early morning of the next day, Xia Sheng took Ziyu and Eleven, and the three little girls to set off together, saying that they were going to collect medicine on the high grassland.
Before the war, the duty of the military doctor was to pick herbs and use them to increase the stockpile.
Today is not more than usual, the autumn breeze is getting cooler, and the grass also has traces of yellowing, Xia Sheng said, autumn is the forming season of many rare medicinal materials, the medicinal products on the grassland are extremely rich, the medical science of the barbarians is still shallow, and they only know how to hunt in the vast prairie, but they don't know that a precious "blood cordyceps" can be sold for hundreds of taels of silver in Zhenwu.
"No wonder some people were run out of this basket early in the morning, they are all military doctors like us, right?" Wen Ziyu asked Eleven Dao not far away while searching for traces of medicinal herbs on the grass.
Eleven sat on the hillside, with a piece of grass in his mouth, holding his cheek with one hand, a few lovesickness in his heart, sighing and sighing.
Seeing her like this, Wen Ziyu picked up a small stone, threw it at her, and shouted: "Hey, you have been resting for half an hour, don't work soon, Xia Sheng said, everyone must fill the basket before evening, otherwise there will be no food tonight." ”
Eleven couldn't even wake up with a stone, and looked at the military camp in the distance stupidly, his lover was inside, but it was so difficult to see him.
"Eleven?"
Wen Ziyu put down the basket and shook it in front of Eleven's eyes with her hand.
Eleven's eyes were confused, and he was afraid that he had already flown back into the military tent.
"Eleven!"
Wen Ziyu shouted at the top of her voice!
"Huh?"
Eleven suddenly returned to his soul, staring at Wen Ziyu in front of him in a panic, and wondered, "What's wrong?
Wen Ziyu sighed and said: "You still ask me what's wrong? You have been absent-minded since morning, I have already picked up most of the basket, look at you, the basket is still empty, aren't you afraid that Xia Sheng will scold you?"
Eleven shook his head and spat lightly: "Don't be afraid." He continued to hold his cheeks and looked at the barracks stupidly.
"Aren't you thinking about your brother?" Ziyu asked, sitting down next to Eleven.
A little bit old, she used to miss the merchant prisoner all the time, but now she is a little more worried, for fear that her man will be robbed by the barbarian princess.
"Alas......"
"Let's go, let's hurry up and collect medicine, Xia Sheng said, as long as the whole basket is full, you can carry it back by yourself, no need to tell her, let's work hard in the first half of the day, and we will be free in the second half of the day, and I will take you to find your lover brother again." Wen Ziyu pulled up Eleven and encouraged.
Eleven dozen can't raise their hearts to come, now, even if they find the merchant prisoner, they don't dare to recognize each other, before the war starts, if the merchant prisoner finds out that he is coming, he will inevitably send himself back, send someone to guard him strictly, and may even lock him in the Muwang Mansion. She grabbed Ziyu, sighed, and said truthfully:
"Ziyu, there is something I have to tell you that I sneaked out to find him, he doesn't know. If he knew, he would not only be angry, but he would also send me back, and then I would have to wait for him for hundreds of years, even ...... It is even possible that he will not be able to wait for him!"
The more Eleven spoke, the more depressed she became, and she felt that she was difficult, not good!
"Huh?"
Wen Ziyu didn't realize it, but smiled lightly: "How big of a deal should I be, it turns out that I am afraid of seeing people?"
Eleven cried and asked, "Ziyu, do you have a good way?"
Wen Ziyu crossed her waist, puffed up her chest, was a little proud, and said: "I'm a spiritual cultivator, I change my appearance and become invisible, and I fly through the walls, that's all good tricks! I'll help you change your hairstyle and make up your makeup, and he can't see a flaw even if he has fiery eyes!"
"Ziyu, you're the best!"
Eleven was overjoyed and cried, embracing each other in the purple rain, tears like rain.
"Okay, let's hurry up and pick herbs, hurry up and finish the work. Wen Ziyu smiled bitterly and pulled Eleven out of her arms.
Eleven said: "Ziyu, if you are a man, I will definitely marry you!"
Wen Ziyu raised her eyebrows: "It seems that every woman wants to do this, so what about your love brother?"
Eleven Xianmei: "I marry him, and I don't hinder serving you, who is called 'the garden can't be closed in spring, so the red apricots come out of the wall'?"
"You, you, pick medicine. ”
Wen Ziyu smiled and lightly touched between Eleven's eyebrows, turned around and was about to carry the back basket downhill, but Eleven pulled her and stopped: "Forget it, let's not take medicine, go back directly to change your appearance, right?"
Wen Ziyu frowned, shook her head resolutely, and said, "Then how can we do it?" Miss Xia Sheng is so good to us, we can't play tricks." ”
Eleven didn't speak, only to see her take out a small medicine bottle from her arms, scrape two tears in the corners of her eyes, and then seal the cork, and then show off in front of Wen Ziyu: "Let's take this back and pay for it, we can hand over the herbs in ten baskets!"
......
......
"I can't see it, little wave, your tears are so valuable? Wen Ziyu praised as she walked.
Eleven said proudly: "That's not, I'm full of treasures, especially ...... Especially one thing in the body, taking it out can scare you to death. ”
The "that thing" in the eleventh mouth is naturally a yin spirit, looking at the entire Six Realms, except for the Hades Emperor who has a pure yin spirit, it belongs to her, so isn't it powerful.
"Eleven, after you say this, I really doubt your identity, tell me honestly, what is your background?"
Pulling Eleven, I want to ask the ins and outs.
"Me?" Eleven shook her head, thinking back on her life, she grew up in Liangcheng since she knew the world, and was sold to Feixue Building at the age of eight to learn art, so the sisters in Feixue Lou are not evildoers, she also spent a pretty good childhood, but as she grew older, her figure and appearance became more and more symbolic, at that time, Miss Yu had not moved to Feixue Inn, and the sisters had a miserable life, especially the bully Shizi of Liangcheng Muwangfu, who got into endless trouble...... The later events were much more miserable than childhood, maybe God couldn't bear to play tricks on her anymore, so he sent a majestic general to rescue her, so far, for the rest of her life, no longer wandering.
"I, like you, am also a sparrow, but I was lucky enough to be held in the palm of my hand. Her words were warm and full of happiness.
Wen Ziyu said: "Envy!" and then guessed: "Eleven's love brother must be a great figure in the army, right? At least an officer." ”
Eleven rolled his eyes and said truthfully: "Yes, he is an officer, but I can't tell you the name, for fear of scaring you." ”
Ziyu said disdainfully: "Cut, I'm not rare." ”
The two walked on the prairie, and unconsciously came to the gate of the camp, but saw that not far from the door, a large number of people had gathered at two or three roads, and the number of soldiers who dared to go was still increasing, and they looked like they were in a hurry.
"Big brother, what's going on over there?" Wen Ziyu asked, grabbing a soldier.
The soldier was arrested, his expression was unhappy, but when he saw Wen Ziyu and the military doctor token on the waist of Eleven, his attitude immediately calmed down, and he said: "Two military doctors, don't you know about the 'Prairie Battle'? ”
Eleven and Ziyu glanced at each other, and they were so busy that they forgot about such an interesting thing.
"Go and see the excitement, cheer for our real warriors, I heard that Princess Nayega is going to play in person, it must be very exciting!" After speaking, the soldier hurriedly ran to the ring.
It must be exciting!
"Let's go and see it too, shall we?" Eleven heard that Princess Yejia was also going to play, and instantly ignited the passion in his heart.
"It's not easy for you to find your mistress, and you may not be able to be idle tomorrow. Wen Ziyu said with a smile.
Eleven pulled Ziyu and hurriedly ran with the soldiers, saying, "Don't be afraid, I just want to see what that fox spirit looks like!"
......
The ring was built in a good way, the red drums reflected each other, the golden gongs were dazzling, and the contestants on both sides were also in high spirits.
The Yejia people were ashamed of the snow, and they sent out all the big-shaped men who were nine feet tall, their upper bodies were bare, their strong and dark muscles were really like stones, and they added a few more totemic camouflage to their faces, showing arrogant expressions, with the determination to win!
The real martial arts side did not show weakness, the soldiers took off their thick armor, because it is a state of etiquette, clothes have to be worn, but the vigorous muscles can also support the clothes enough, it can be described as "wearing thin and undressing with meat".
Liu Xiang appeared in the ring in a chic manner, wearing a plain robe and civilian clothes, his expression was full and decent, he held a safflower hammer in his left hand, and held a gong in his right hand, "Dangdang Dang!" He slammed the gong to stop the soldiers watching the excitement, and then cleared his throat and shouted:
"Everyone, be quiet!"
Everyone fell silent instantly.
Liu Xiang said with a smile: "Taking advantage of the idle days, and in order to celebrate the alliance with the Yejia clan of the grassland, I discussed with the general and paid out of my own pocket to find some fun for everyone to hold a friendly match between Yejia and Zhenwu!"
"Good!"
"Bang Bang!"
"Knock knock!"
The applause was thunderous, the gongs and drums were noisy, and the opening atmosphere was not bad!
Liu Xiang made a stop gesture, the gongs and drums and cheers stopped instantly, and he said: "The important thing to mention is that friendship comes first, competition is second, today is the main battlefield of our real martial arts, everyone can raise their voices and bless the atmosphere, but you must not sigh and ridicule Ye Jia's friends...... Our real warriors are all qualified......"
"the and these stinky brutes......"
"It's just that, be polite to them, veterans who have been on the battlefield know that these barbarians are inhumane. ”
"If Lao Tzu hadn't been selected, I would have to let these barbarians see what a true martial arts soul is!"
The soldiers didn't dare to speak loudly, but it was okay to complain in a low voice, the grievances between the barbarians and the real martial arts could not be resolved in a competition, even if they were unanimous to the outside world.
"Okay, okay, everyone, be quiet, let's announce the rules of the game!"
After Liu Xiang stopped everyone, he read it out loud: "Again, the first ...... of the competition The rules of the game are very simple, take the four sides of the ring as the boundary, if you go out, you win, and if you fall to the ground, you will lose,"
He raised his hand again, pointed to several officers in silver armor on the right and said: "You can see that on my right hand is today's referee, if the two sides are unable to hold each other, or one side kills the killer, the referee has the right to stop it and directly disqualify the violator!"
"Also, I want to change the specifications of the turn-based game on the spot, the previous arrangement was that Ye Jia and the thirty warriors of each faction of Zhenwu fought in pairs, but now it is changed to a free fight, that is to say, whichever side can stand in the ring last will win!"
"Bang bang!"
Liu Xiang struck a few more gongs and drums, and smiled at everyone: "Of course, there is also the winner's reward that everyone cares about the most, after my discussion with the merchant general, considering that the war preparation is already in short supply, and we have no spare money in hand, the winner will be rewarded by one person," he paused deliberately and bought a pass
, gestured out a "one" word with his hand, and said: "One hundred taels of silver!"
If such a game is held in a folk downtown and such a shabby reward is given, the people watching the show in the audience will definitely sigh, but in the Zhenwu military camp, everyone doesn't seem to care about the so-called money, and the barbarians have never shown a trace of disappointment, perhaps in their eyes, the honor of winning the game is far greater than this one hundred taels.
"The crow's face is really picky. Wen Ziyu pursed her lips and complained.
"Ziyu, do you know General Shang, how do you know that his previous nickname was ...... Raven face. Eleven was surprised.
Wen Ziyu nodded: "Yes, it's an old friend, I met hundreds of years ago, and at that time he was still a pair of dead fish eyes and a crow face, which was not pleasant." ”
"This world is so small......," Eleven muttered.
"What?" Wen Ziyu was puzzled, and asked again, "What? Eleven, do you also know General Shang?"
"Uh, this ......" Eleven was a little panicked, and turned her head to prevent Wen Ziyu from seeing her abnormality, she laughed dryly and said: "I am from Liangcheng, so I naturally know the prestige of General Shang, he used to be the son of Muwangfu." ”
"It seems like that's the reason, but"
"Oh, don't be, look, the game has started, it's Lin Zifang, the first to bear the brunt, this rich boy, he can even play with a spear. ”
Eleven pulled Ziyu, fingered in the ring, and said excitedly.
After all, she came from the same sect, Wen Ziyu couldn't help but feel a trace of relief and pride in her heart when she saw Lin Zifang so brave, she praised and said: "Well, don't you see that this rich boy brother usually has a poisonous mouth, and his martial arts cultivation has not fallen at all, so he is looking forward to the performance." ”
Lin Zifang still maintained his arrogant posture like a rooster, dressed in a silk shirt with the autumn wind, with a dragon spear in his hand, stomping on the spear immediately, majestic! He yelled at the Yejia clan opposite:
"I'm going to hit ten!"
This roar, not to mention earth-shattering, but it vividly reflects the morale of the Zhenwu army!
"The kid is crazy, I'll let you make ten moves today, because I'm afraid that others will say that I am bullying the small!"
A burly middle-aged man, his voice moved in all directions, jumped into the ring with one sentence, and when he landed, the whole ring also trembled!
The man is not fluent in Sinicization, and he is born exactly like the rumored barbarian image of Zhenwu, tall, dark, rough, and savage...... It can be seen that Zhenwu's books do not completely blacken the barbarians, and there is also a historical basis.
The man's shoulders are broad, his arms are strong and long, and he can touch his knees when he hangs down naturally, so contrary to the human growth of the body, I am afraid that it can only be seen among the barbarians.
Live like a powerful gorilla!
The man pointed at Lin Zifang and said, "I'm from the Yejia clan, Yanzhen, the little man might as well hold a name before he starts?"
Lin Zifang kicked the gun, heroic and compelling, and said: "You remember, the little master is the second richest man in Zhenwu, Lin Zifang!"
The man smiled contemptuously and unnaturally, and only asked, "Oh, who is the first rich man?"
Lin Zifang opened his mouth and scolded: "You are so fucking stupid, the first rich man is of course my son, stupid!"
The man couldn't bear to scold angrily, his temper was instantly hot, he had no weapons, or his fists as big as casseroles were weapons!
"Look at the punch!"
He strode like thunder, and the speed was so fast that it aroused an exclamation from the audience.
Lin Zifang never imagined that the gorilla who had said "let you make ten moves" actually took the initiative to attack, and the speed was so fast, he didn't have time to make any dodges, so he could only shoot horizontally in front of him and resist this blow!
"No, if Zi Fang resists the fist of this strange man, he will definitely be beaten out of the ring!"
Wen Ziyu couldn't help but pinch a cold sweat before Lin Zifang.
"Smack!"
The heavy fist smashed on Lin Zifang's spear, and as Wen Ziyu expected, Lin Zifang's whole person was smashed out by the power of this punch, but just when everyone thought that Lin Zifang was about to fly out of the ring, they saw that the spear in his hand suddenly stretched out ten times, and the head of the spear was just upside down on the yellow line at the border of the ring!
Lin Zifang used the bending tenacity of the spear to treat himself as an arrow that came out of the string, and with one blow, he flew into the air and nailed it to the black man in the center of the ring!
"Good!"
The ingenuity of the body, the application of weapons, and the random response make the soldiers applaud!
"Of course, just Zifang's golden gun, no million silver taels can take it?" Huo Da stood on the side of the contestants, and without exaggeration, he praised his good brother.
Bai Xiu'an, Han Renjun and other Yangmen disciples were also standing under the ring to cheer for Lin Zifang.
Lin Zifang kicked the black man's head, the black man couldn't stand the impact of this force, snorted, staggered back a few steps, stumbled on his heels, and shook his butt in the ring!
No matter how dark the black man was, there was an extra footprint on his face, and the lion's nose couldn't help but shed two blood stains, and he was injured, no matter how light or serious the injuries were, they were quite embarrassed.
"Barbarian, you can't win the wisdom of our true martial artists with strength alone, do you admit defeat?" Lin Zifang pointed his gun at the black man's neck and said sharply.
"Boy, don't be too complacent, I'm going to be serious!"
The black man was furious, he didn't turn over, he didn't dodge, he stood up straight against Lin Zifang's steel gun, he shouted angrily, howled wildly, like an invulnerable rhinoceros, the golden gun was bent, and Lin Zifang retreated again and again!
