Chapter 152: Nine Phoenixes, Do It Yourself
Blood, meandering blood flowed from beneath the stacked corpses, outlining eerie strokes. Eventually, the lowest part of the courtyard converged into a shallow pool.
For every corpse with its blood flowing cleanly, a bird spirit grabbed the severed corpse that had been cut up, held it in its arms, and sucked the last vestiges of flesh clean. Then he casually threw the white wreckage far away.
Before the corpse could hit the ground, most of the bones had lost their aura, and they turned into a puff of ashes in mid-air, floating in the clouds and mist.
This is Shouchun, once one of the most prosperous cities in the Great Chu Kingdom. Now it's so gray.
The air in the city was filled with the strange smell of soot and ashes, fires everywhere, and broken houses everywhere. The barrier in the sky, which was originally used to defend against foreign enemies, has now become a ravine for the people to flee, and the foot of the city wall is covered with blood and corpses.
From time to time, a bird spirit would break through the roof, grab one or two crying figures from the house, cut their throats with their claws, and throw them into the small courtyard where the fat gentry was.
Finally, the first of the soldiers defending the city appeared to disobey the order, and he cried and shot an arrow into the head of a bird spirit, and the disembowelment of the disembowelment of the baby clutched in the bird spirit's claws fell to the ground along with the bird spirit. When he picked up the dead baby's corpse, he only knew how to hug the small body tightly.
Then came the second person, the third person. The overseers who slashed the disobedient soldiers with their swords were pushed to the ground by the angry soldiers, and in a short time they were chopped into pulp.
The people in the city were divided into two teams, one team went to rescue the people in the city, and the other team went to try to destroy the formation core in the center of the city.
"What are you doing?!, are you trying to disobey the king's orders?" the angry city guard led a large number of officials to stop the advancing procession. Squeaky and screaming bird spirits hover overhead.
"Lord Sun, is the king's order to let these monsters torture and kill the people of my city at will? Is it the king's order to let these monsters rush into other people's homes and slaughter the old and weak women and children at will?"
"You!" The words of the young general just now were heart-wrenching, if this was the king's order, wouldn't the king be a faint king who was unkind and unjust and let the monsters kill his own people. If you say that this is not the king's order, then you are guilty of it. Sun Chengshou was speechless for a while.
The silver-armored young general was unforgiving: "Don't you dare to admit it?!You actually dare to do such a thing in the name of the king! All the soldiers obey the order! Follow me to kill this fang!"
Sun Chengshou was suddenly frightened, and hurriedly turned around and ran, and before he could escape a few steps, he was stabbed by the steel gun in the hand of the silver-armored young general who was catching up with the horse behind him. A group of officials hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged for mercy, putting all the blame on Sun Chengshou, who had just died. bluntly said that he was just deceived by Sun Chengshou, and he didn't know that those monsters had committed such a big crime.
The silver-armored young general sneered in his heart, these monsters have been wreaking havoc inside and outside the city for half a year, are you all blind.
The bird spirits hovering in the air pointed at Sun Chengshou, who had just died, and there were a few bold ones, tearing each other and rushing towards the still warm corpse, wanting to take him for themselves.
The silver-armored young man connected the tip of the spear, and several bird spirits burst out with blood in their throats.
There was an uproar in the air, and the largest bird spirit led by him landed to a height slightly higher than the silver armor junior with a gloomy face, and looked down at the resolute face of the silver armor junior general: "Do you want to violate the agreement between the King of Chu and us?"
The silver-armored young man stabbed out a shot, straight through the throat of the bird spirit, and the bird spirit held the body of the spear, and he couldn't believe that anyone dared to kill him. Isn't this person afraid of being killed by the King of Chu of the Nine Clans?!
Drops of blood dripped down the barrel of the spear and fell to the ground, and the silver-armored young man looked down and let the blood gradually wet his horse's hooves.
It wasn't until the maroon horses were restlessly moving their steps, splashing blood-stained sludge, that the bird spirits in the air came back to their senses.
I saw that the black and suppressed bird spirit Ula scattered all at once, some flew into the distance, and some were angry and waved their claws to fight this group of people.
Before the silver armor general ordered, the soldiers behind him spontaneously raised their bows and arrows and shot those bird spirits who dared to attack one by one.
"Don't waste arrows, it's important to save people. The silver-armored young man took the lead, and when the foot soldiers behind him passed by the bird spirit, the big knife in his hand fell mercilessly, almost completely cutting off the bird spirit's neck. The bird spirits who still wanted to pretend to be dead and escape the catastrophe struggled to fly, but they all died under the big knife of the Chu army.
Inside the house, Jiuhuang watched the old man's palm get closer and closer to the baby, but he couldn't do anything.
Just as the old man was about to touch the child, he was knocked to the ground by a stool, and all his attention was focused on Jiuhuang's body, not thinking that the weak ghost would dare to resist his will. If you are careless, you will completely lose the opportunity to catch that child.
When he wiped the blood from his cheeks and stood up, he knew that Jiuhuang, who was not as fast as him, had already wrapped the child in his feather coat.
"Jiuhuang, this little bastard, is it your son?" the old man teased: "I can't imagine that Jiuhuang, who is the ancestor of the bird spirit, would actually give birth to such a mongrel with the food of the bird spirit, if your juniors know, I don't know how disappointed they will be." Guess what those who have been coveting your throne for a long time will take the opportunity to oust you from power?"
"You are a big man, what kind of ability is it to threaten a woman with a child, you have the ability to threaten the fat man, see if the fat man will beat you with peach blossoms all over your face!" The fat man holding the leg of the broken stool stopped in front of Jiuhuang and the child, trying to protect them.
Anyway, I'm already a dead man, fat man, so it's a big deal to die again.
"Oh, is this human ghost the father of this child?" the old man slightly straightened the hair that covered his forehead, found a stool, and sat down slowly.
"Fart! You're the fat man, my son! I'm sorry! Grandson!" The fat man has seen the strength of the old man, and he can dodge the secret weapon so fast, if he shoots with all his strength, whether he can hold up a move is a sure problem. I only hope that the nine-headed bird called Jiuhuang behind him is not a weak stubble, otherwise the three of them will have to explain here.
Jiuhuang, who was behind the fat husband, hugged the child tightly, but never denied it.
The old man stood up, patted the floating dust that did not exist behind him, Shi Shiran pushed open the door of the house, and the bloody breath in the small courtyard suddenly rushed to his face: "Jiuhuang, do it yourself." ”
After the old man left, the fat man's feet were weak, and he fell to the ground almost at the same time as Jiuhuang.
