Chapter 288: Cold sword produces flowers
Xiahou Ninghan suppressed his anger and took advantage of the dim sky and his vision was difficult to see. He followed the Turks not far behind and came to Beizhao Temple.
Although there are many sentries and are very cautious, it is only for ordinary people, masters of level rank like Xiahou Ninghan will certainly not take them seriously. With her quick and ghostly body technique, she sneaked into the town through the cover of the big tree house with just a few light lifting techniques.
Beizhao Temple now has no other Turkic troops except Geshuxuan's troops, so the most core position in the town was naturally occupied by him. Xiahou Ninghan hid on the roof and roughly identified the direction, so he could easily touch the township office of Beizhao Temple.
As she expected, Ge Shuxuan was now treating the township office as his stronghold, and his office and rest were here.
After listening to his subordinates' report, Ge Shuxuan was very satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the poisonous soldiers. He turned to his assistant Shu Keman and smiled: "Look, I just said that it is very feasible for poisonous soldiers to be used in wars. Although there are still some minor problems in command and coordination, his combat effectiveness is definitely far higher than that of ordinary combat troops."
"The most wonderful thing is that it doesn't cost us Turkic people's lives." Shukman also laughed: "Young master, the method of tempering soul-catching sand is now mature. We have also reached a variety of conclusions about the mastery of dose and the corresponding different effects. In my opinion, it's time to form a large-scale poison army."
Ge Shuxuan nodded: "Soul-catching sand has always been an ancient legend recorded in the secret book of the Ghost Fighting Clan. Unexpectedly, it became a reality in my hands. This is the blessing of the Ghost Fighting Clan, and it is also the blessing of the Turkic Empire! From now on, the poisonous army that is not afraid of death swept the world, and whether it is the Western Continent or the Eastern Continent, it will eventually become our fertile land."
Shu Keman bowed with conscience: "Young Master is wise! Now our Ghost Fight Tribe is really going to be proud. What is the Golden Clan, the Ye Lun Clan, and even the strongest warrior, he will be trampled by poisonous soldiers!"
Brother Shuxuan was looking forward to the future of glory, and a soft light appeared on his cold face. He nodded slightly and asked: "Shukman, how many poisonous soldiers have passed the test? How many reserves of soul-catching sand are left?"
"Report to the young master," Shukman introduced as if he had known it: "As of yesterday, a total of 723 poisonous soldiers have withstood the violent toxicity of the soul-catching sand. Their physical functions are well preserved and they can fight at any time. As for the amount of sand, it is still enough to temper thousands of people for use..."
Ge Shuxuan frowned slightly: "So little? Which part of the raw materials are insufficient?"
Shukman replied: "Those ordinary poisons are easy to deal with. Whether it is the Ghost Fight Tribe or the Holy Tang, they can be collected anytime and anywhere. It's just lead... This thing is too rare and difficult to deal with."
"Tuan lead, tuan lead..." Ge Shu Xuan muttered twice, and suddenly said: "I remember Prince Gu Nie once said that there seems to be a lead mine in the Ghost Desert in the West, right?"
Shukman nodded: "I have also heard of this. At that time, the Khan wanted records of Western Xinjiang. There was news of the lead mine in the report compiled by Prince Gune's subordinates."
"Remember which country it was in?"
"Oh, I deserve to die, my impression is a little blurred." Shukman blamed himself: "I had specially reminded myself to remember to implement the lead ore, but later I was busy refining poison soldiers and ignored this matter. Please forgive me."
Ge Shuxuan waved his hand: "It's okay, anyway, that mine will not grow its feet and run away. Just turn around and ask Prince Guni. Then, I will find a way to ask Dahan to give a order to bring the lead ore from Gema and hand it over to us."
Shukman looked puzzled and hesitated: "Young Master, have you not heard of it? Something seems to be happening in Xijiang."
Brother Shuxuan couldn't help but be slightly stunned: "What happened? What happened?"
"I don't know the specific situation. The top leaders of the Golden Clan are so secretive about this and keep the news very tight." Shukman said: "However, the Eleventh Legion and the Blood Guard Iron Cavalry Legion have already set off one after another, and they all go west."
Then he added: "And... he left in a hurry."
Ge Shu Xuan was puzzled: "What? Even Tanley and Yun Qianxue were dispatched? This is really strange. Since the Golden Wolf Army left the customs, it has been hiding from the battlefield. If you can do it, you will definitely not fight. This time it is time to go to the battlefield. But what about my senior brother? He shoulders the responsibility of defending the Khan. He will not be his turn to fight unless he has to. Could it be..."
Shukman nodded slightly: "Well, it's probably because of Gema."
"Rebellion?" Ge Shuxuan's eyes lit up: "Did the Ye Lun Clan rebellion?"
Shukman sucked his teeth and said, "Tsk tsk, there is a possibility. The two princes of the Golden Clan fought for the throne. Gema was trying to support Chili, and Yun Qianxue was Tanli's best friend. At present, the Khan sent Tanli and Yun Qianxue to lead more than 100,000 troops to kill to the western border in a fierce manner, which was clearly the Yelun tribe."
Ge Shuxuan frowned: "But it doesn't make sense. This Eastern Expedition, Chili fought bravely and made many military achievements. It was when the Khan was favored, and Gema was appointed as the governor of Western Xinjiang, which was equivalent to having a huge fat out of thin air. The two of them were so smooth, and there was no reason to be killed by themselves."
"Who knows?" Shukman thought, "If it weren't for Gema's rebellion, would it be that something huge change had happened in the Western Xinjiang or the Western Continent?"
Ge Shuxuan shook his head: "If there is a problem in the Western Continent, my father will definitely send someone to notify me as soon as possible, so it shouldn't be. As for the ghost descent in the Western Xinjiang, I really don't understand what else can there be. Even the Yakut Legion can't suppress it, so I have to alarm my senior brother."
He paused a little, staring at Shukman and said in a deep voice: "I think we should not guess here either. Whether it is the rebellion of the Yelun tribe or the chaos in the Western Xinjiang, it has nothing to do with me. If they are willing to fight, then just fight. It doesn't matter if the human head hits the dog's head! I only care about the poison army, just lead mine!"
"I understand, young master!" Shukman replied: "I will go to the imperial capital tomorrow. I will first find Prince Guni and verify the lead mine."
Ge Shuxuan knew that this assistant had always been at ease, so he nodded with confidence and told him to leave and rest first, and put on his cloak, intending to go to the drug refining room behind to take a look.
The poisonous soldiers have now successfully passed the trial stage and gradually entered mass production. The more they are at this time, the more they need to concentrate on their studies and constantly explore and master the effectiveness of Soul-Seeing Sand.
Ge Shuxuan did not bring the guards, and walked to the poison room alone and pushed the door open. Because there were a large number of precious poisons and many out-of-print toxicology books, Ge Shuxuan marked it as a forbidden area. The soldiers only set up posts on the periphery, and no one was allowed to come in in the courtyard in front of the room.
He lit a few lamps in the house, sat at the table with his robe, and then looked through several volumes of poison tempering records that have been in recent days, and suddenly realized that something was different.
"Who? Come out!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiahou Ninghan, dressed in a night-dressing dress, appeared at the door in a blink of an eye.
Ge Shuxuan looked up and was shocked by the other party's beautiful face. Even though he was covered in black, he could not hide the fairy-like temperament of Xiahou Ninghan.
"Who are you?" Ge Shu Xuan asked in the Holy Tang language: "Why are you here?"
Xiahou Ning looked at the young Turkic man coldly and asked without answering, "Are you Ge Shuxuan?"
Brother Shu Xuan smiled loudly: "It's just that, I wonder what the girl is called?"
Xiahou Ninghan still did not answer his question and continued: "You made the Blood Demon and the Soul-Devouring?"
Upon hearing this, Ge Shuxuan reacted and stood up and said, "Have you seen them?"
"Not only have I seen it," Xiahou Ninghan replied proudly: "I also ended their pain with my own hands."
Ge Shuxuan's eyes were faintly chilling: "So, are you Li Bing's person?"
Seeing that the other party mentioned the prince, Xiahou Ninghan became more convinced that it was indeed the Turks who were trying to murder Li Bing. Although they were not clear why they did this and what benefits would be if they did it, the other party was obviously very clear about the assassination of the poisonous soldiers.
Xiahou Ninghan sneered: "Brother Shuxuan, you are dehumanized and have lost all your conscience! Tell me, should you stop yourself? Or should I let me do it?"
Ge Shuxuan was not afraid at all, but couldn't help but smile and said, "You are so strange. You don't even report to your house. You said wildly as soon as you come up. OK, I want to see, why do you take my life? Do you rely on beauty?"
"You are looking for death!" Xiahou Ninghan hated him to the core, but he didn't expect that this guy would be so frivolous. He immediately had evil eyes and trembled his hands and stabbed him with a sword, and took Ge Shu Xuan straight.
Since his martial arts were perfect, Xiahou Ninghan rarely used weapons when fighting with others. Today, he was obviously really angry and had no scruples to make moves.
The two were originally two or three meters apart, but unexpectedly, Xiahou Ninghan's body movement was extremely fast. In the blink of an eye, the sword edge stabbed in front of Ge Shuxuan. At the same time, a powerful internal force completely enveloped him, making it impossible for him to dodge easily.
Ge Shu Xuan was immediately shocked and secretly scolded himself for being too arrogant and thought that the other party was easy to deal with when he was beautiful, but he did not expect that this beauty was so terrifying.
At the critical moment, Brother Shuxuan knew that he could not block the opponent's fierce attack, so he had to use his internal strength and suddenly broke free from Xiahou Ninghan's aura, flew through the wooden window, and escaped outside the house.
Xiahou Ninghan had expected that he would use this move, so he chased after him without hesitation, and also broke through the window and came outside. As soon as he landed, the sword immediately shook out countless sword flowers and continued to cover Ge Shu Xuan.
The cold sword blooms, and the snow falls.
