Volume 1: The Seven Stars of the Twilight of the World Chapter 32 Tangshan Zhu Xian
Zhao Meier's body had been trembling slightly, thinking that she was enduring great pain. This wedding dress has been hidden by her at the bottom of the box, and no one knows that such a woman who has walked through the dust can hide such a secret in her closet.
"This is the wedding dress I asked to sew with the best female red in Sheng'an City. I don't think anyone will marry me in this life, so this dress is a shroud reserved for myself. Zhao Meier stroked the gorgeous lines on her sleeves, and her eyes flashed with a girlish clear gaze.
Lieutenant Tangshan's rough hands also began to tremble, in the fight with the sandworm just now, his palms were stained with blood and dust, he went to clean his hands with the water in the house, rubbed and rubbed on his clothes, and then picked up the blood-red wedding dress again.
"Mei'er, I marry you in Tangshan, I have always wanted to marry you!"
Zhao Meier's eyes gently lifted upward, sweeping back and forth on Tangshan's thin old face, "Phew, it's just you?"
"Mei'er, I know, you don't like me as a rough person, but I really like you. I don't dare to say that I want to marry you, I just know that you don't like me......" Tang Shan's voice began to cry, the whole Shule, in the past thirty years, no one has seen the tears of this rough man, Tang San also wanted to hold back today, but the tears finally fell out.
"You idiot. I don't like you, but how can I be worthy of you. You are the captain of the Shule Town Mansion of the Great Xia Hall, and I am just an official concubine who has escaped......"
Zhao Mei'er wanted to continue, but suddenly, she began to cough, her abdominal organs had been shattered by the rough tentacles of the sandworm, and she just coughed a few times and spurted out a mouthful of blood.
Tang Shan hugged Zhao Meier's increasingly soft body, and used his palm to catch the blood spraying out of her mouth.
Zhao Meier's eyes became more and more distracted, she was silent for a while, and muttered softly, "Put it on for me." ”
"Good, good. ”
Tang Shan hurriedly went to put on the wedding dress for Zhao Meier, and Su Su, who was already in tears on the side, couldn't stand it, and reached out to grab the corner of the wedding dress, "Captain Tang, let me help my sister." ”
Su Su's hands were much more dexterous than Tang Shan's, helping Zhao Mei'er to remove her blood-stained coat, and dressed her neatly in the wedding dress, at this time Zhao Mei'er's body could no longer sit still, leaning on Tang Shan's thin chest, her head was half on Tang Shan's shoulder,
"And the hood. ”
Tang San was holding the body that was gradually getting cold in his arms, his brain began to become blank, and he couldn't even hear Zhao Meier's last request, just stunned there.
Su Su, who was still on the side, covered Zhao Mei'er with a red hood.
"That's fine," Zhao Mei'er was angry, "Don't open it again, I don't want you to see me ugly." "I think Zhao Mei'er saw the terrifying appearance of the night watchman's seven orifices bleeding dirty blood, and she was afraid that she would become like that.
The last sentence of Zhao Meier's explanation was left for Su Su, "Good girl, a lifetime is fast, don't miss ......"
Finally, there was no sound in the red hood, and drops of inky black blood dripped from Zhao Meier's sharp chin to her chest, and soon dyed the blood-red wedding dress with an even more weird showiness.
The room was quiet, and Tang San held Zhao Mei'er motionless, like a sculpture without breath and heartbeat.
Finally, Su Su couldn't hold it back and began to cry, causing several of Tangshan's subordinates to start sobbing. Xiang Bei on the side was at a loss, leaning on Su Su's side but didn't know how to comfort him, finally, he mustered up the courage and wanted to use his hand to support Su Su's violently undulating shoulders, but Su Su struggled to shake it, and the eyes of the pear blossom with rain glared at Xiang Bei fiercely,
"Phew!" Susu turned and walked away.
Finally, the sculpture holding Zhao Meier's body moved, although the Tangshan lieutenant was thin and withered, but the slightly plump body of Zhao Meier looked light, perhaps because the sandworm had sucked Zhao Meier's flesh and blood dry.
Xiang Bei looked at the direction of Tangshan's departure and knew that he was going to carry Zhao Mei'er to the place where the previous captains who had guarded Shule were buried. There, there is a coffin left by Tangshan.
The empty coffin, which had been empty for many years, finally slept with a bride covered with a hood.
When Tang San appeared in front of everyone again, he had already wiped away the tears on his face. Coldness and calmness appeared on his face again.
"Geng Zhong, you go and bury our brothers who have been together for so many years, and then go out of the east gate, find a way to return to Great Xia, and report the situation of Shule to the imperial court. ”
"No, my lord, I will stay with you to avenge my brothers. "Years of birth and death have allowed these men to give their lives to each other, and of course they know each other's thoughts.
"This is my order!"
"No, Lord Tangshan, I swear to follow Lord Tangshan to the death. ”
Tang San grabbed Geng Zhong's collar and slapped him twice, "You dare not listen to my orders!" Seeing Geng Zhong's cheeks, ready to continue to meet his own slap, Tang San put his mouth to Geng Zhong's ear, "That monster will come back at any time, we have the best chance here to be able to cross the Hundred Miles of Wild Sea, and you are the only one who returns to Great Xia." You have to tell your family what's going on here. Otherwise, we will all die in vain!"
Geng Zhong saw the unprecedented calm and calmness in Tang Shan's eyes, it was impossible to let him leave Zhao Meier and Shule, and it was impossible to get him to agree to be buried with him.
Moreover, what Tang San said was right, Shule encountered such a change, and it was obviously more valuable to pass the news to the rear than to fight to the death.
Geng Zhong broke free from Tangshan, dusted off his body, took two steps back, and knelt on one knee, "Geng Zhong, the protector of the Great Xia Shule, obey the military order." ”
The soldiers defending the city opened the city gate for Geng Zhong, this time, unlike the time when he asked him to explore Xiang Bei's carriage, only a small crack was opened, this time, Geng Zhong asked his brothers to open the city gate completely,
"Brothers, the gates are of no use to our enemies, so we simply open them, and when we have no choice but to do so, we have a way out. ”
"Master Geng, you can leave with confidence. ”
In the face of the battle, the former brothers have already settled down to their duties, and the soldiers and generals have their own duties, and as soon as Geng Zhong's fast horse leaves the city, it will raise a burst of yellow dust and go straight to the hundred miles of sand dunes south of Shule.
Passing through the hundred-mile sand dunes and crossing the Great Qinling Mountains, it is the vast and fertile land of Great Xia. The people of Daxia who sang and danced there and made the sun rise and the sun set did not know that the north gate built by the ancestors of the horse leather shroud with their lives was about to be pierced by unimaginable existence......
Tang Shan then beckoned his men to bring the leader of the camel team, Jebecuo, over.
Jebecuo was obviously flustered, thinking that it should be safe to hide in Shure, but he never expected to encounter such an evil beast.
Thinking that giant beasts can not only absorb flesh and blood from human bodies, steal their minds, but even walk in the world in disguise as them, this is the most terrifying.
Tang Shan's face was gloomy and he asked, "Jebecuo, what did your caravan transport?"
"I, we're all bringing some salt and iron for our guests. Ah!" Before the words fell, Jebecuo screamed, the crossbow arrow in Tang Shan's hand had already pierced his thigh, the crossbow arrow could be wound automatically, and another arrow flashing blue light had pointed at Jebecuo's other thigh.
"Nearly ten people have died in Shule City, what did your camel team carry?" Tang Shan's tone was still calm, calmly letting a cool breeze blow from Jebelcuo's back.
"Tang, Lord Tangshan," poor Jebecuo grabbed his thigh fiercely, pitiful that the knife wound on his shoulder was not healed yet, "I just bring goods for the guests, they are not allowed to ......" Seeing that Tangshan's index finger began to pull the trigger again, Jebecuo hurriedly changed his words, "Of course, if you want to know what we brought, I can also go and check with the adults." ”
"I'm asking about the one that can attract this kind of monster. ”
"Oh, if it can be so useful, I guess, I guess it's the Dragon Descending Ding. ”
"Descending the Dragon?"
"Yes, yes, it's a merchant in Sheng'an City, who said that he asked me to bring us the king of the Southern Courtyard, and then the king of the Southern Courtyard will naturally be rewarded. ”
Tang Shan had already received a secret order from the imperial court in advance, telling him to intercept Jebecuo's caravan, and they were smuggling an artifact related to the luck of Great Xia.
But what exactly this artifact is, even the messenger who conveyed the secret order does not know.
At first, Tangshan wanted to use the bandit Sha Li Fei to get it out to avoid bringing trouble to Shule City, but people are not as good as heaven, Su Su unexpectedly made a move and repelled Sha Lifei, but led monsters like sand worms back to Shule.
Zhao Meier's sister and brother and those brothers who lived and died in front of Tangshan continued to die tragically, which had made him lose his patience, and he ignored the fact that Zhebei was still holding a crossbow arrow on his leg, and said indifferently, "Bring that thing to me." ”
Jebecuo was dissatisfied, but he didn't dare to anger the man in front of him, who seemed to be calm but had actually gone berserk, and he limped out a square object wrapped in layers of red cloth from the cargo box.
The red cloth was opened, and it turned out to be a square ding with rough lines, the size of Fang Ding's palm, heavy, Tang Shan weighed it in his hand, and asked the blind man Tianmo, "Old man, don't you know the origin of that monster?
The Dragon Descending Ding originally existed for the outlier in the world. An existence like a sandworm, in the last battle of divine punishment, was sealed with divine power, hiberned under the sand dunes, and was lucky to escape. But now that it has appeared in the world as a half-immortal, if it were not for an artifact like the Dragon Descending Ding, it would definitely become uncontrollable.
And the artifact that calms the strange beast often has a mysterious induction power with the strange beast, presumably the sandworm is attracted by the divine power of the dragon tripod, and the artifact is determined to get it.
While listening to Tianmo's explanation, Tang Shan turned the Dragon Descending Ding in his hand over and checked it carefully, but found that this small tripod had nothing special except for some rune-like patterns on it.
"How can this Dragon Descending Ding ambush that monster?"
"Uh, this. Unexpectedly, Tianmo, who seemed to know everything, began to stutter.
"Well, artifacts were originally just legends. How to use, I haven't heard of it. ”
Tianmo's answer crushed the little hope that everyone had just risen. However, this dragon tripod does not seem to be very attractive to Tangshan.
He instructed his subordinates to move all the ordnance of the firearms battalion to the inn, and soon, Zhao Mei'er's room was filled with thunder stones and fire thunderbolts, except for a bed of yellow sand on the bed.
Thunderstone is a weapon made of stone, filled with gunpowder in a hollow stone, as long as the gunpowder is ignited, the stone explodes, can blow the opponent to pieces.
The fire thunderbolt is similar to a relatively short spear, which is pre-packed into several thin bamboo tubes, and the joints between the bamboo tubes are opened, and only when the gunpowder at the root is ignited, it can shoot out a spear shower, which is equivalent to throwing javelins over a long distance, which is more lethal than throwing by manpower.
Since the sandworm has set his sights on the Dragon Descending Ding, Tang San thought to himself, then exchange your life for it, or, take it with my life.
Evil beast sandworm, come on, I want to try it, flesh and blood, can I gnaw off a half-immortal body like you.
