The battle at the "Bixue Pass" in Devil's Cry Ridge severely damaged the vitality of the Sui Empire and destroyed most of its elite troops, thus laying the foundation for the Chu Empire to conquer the Sui Kingdom.
After the 3 million army led by the Eighth Prince broke through the "Blue Blood Pass", they were invincible. The Chu Empire's conquest army was also divided into three armies at the same time, and they rushed towards the capital of the Sui Empire - Sui Jingcheng from three directions.
.
Lu Zhan, General Huang and General Wu were assigned together as part of the imperial left army, marching boldly towards the Sui capital.
The left army was temporarily without the help of the "Floating Fairy Island", and Lu Zhan became the most majestic general on the battlefield. He held a silver spear and stepped on a white horse. No one dared to challenge him wherever he passed.
In just a few months, the name "White Horse and Silver Spear" had become famous throughout the Sui Dynasty. Whenever the Sui generals saw the young man with white horse and silver spear appearing from a distance, they would all feel a chill in their guts and collapse at the sight of the wind.
.
During his years on the battlefield in the Sui Empire, Lu Zhan encountered countless life-and-death duels, including dozens of decisive battles with powerful men in the Huajing Realm.
That is to say, relying on this continuous accumulation and understanding in the battle of life and death, coupled with the help of the third-level elixir "Zhen Yuan Dan" rewarded by the Da Chu royal family, when he ended the decisive battle at the Bixue Pass, he entered the Da Chu Palace.
In the eighth month of the Sui Empire, his martial arts attainments had reached the late stage of Huajin Realm, and he became the second person in the Chu Empire besides the Imperial Master of Tianjiyuan in the late Huajin Realm who could suppress the destiny of the empire.
While the beacon fires were burning across the Sui Empire in the north, the city of Chujing, tens of thousands of miles away in the south, was still a scene of feasting, luxury and prosperity.
The Hanging Moon Bridge in the west of the city is the favorite place for people in Chujing City to gather and relax. Here, three religions and nine streams gather, and all kinds of people can find their own stage here, including juggling, theater troupes, ancient color tricks, fortune-telling, and martial arts competitions.
Wait, the shops and stalls all over the street make this place very lively.
Located at the southern end of the "Hanging Moon Bridge", in a venue densely surrounded by brocade curtains, there is a circus that performs animal training and magical skills.
This circus is quite large, with more than 80 people in total. The people in this group participating in public performances are not only the ordinary ligers, tigers, dogs and monkeys that you can usually see, but also some black panthers, white apes, golden pythons and the like.
There are many rare birds and animals, and the members of the circus are from foreign lands and frontiers, and there are many strange-looking beings. So as soon as they settled down in Guanyueqiao territory, they attracted great popularity around them, and Zhenri
The audience was packed and there were countless fans.
The circus set up a large red tent in the center of the empty field as a performance stage.
Behind the red tent, there are many small khaki tents standing in a semicircular shape, surrounded by a blue octagonal tent in the middle.
These small tents are where circus members and their tamed animals temporarily live.
On this day, one of the most popular programs was performed in the big red tent as a performance stage.
On the performance stage, I saw a huge savage tusked elephant circling the entire venue. On the elephant's back, stood upside down a petite woman with a compact body and extremely beautiful appearance. The woman was only
More than three feet tall, with dark skin and slim figure. From a distance, he looks weak and boneless, with a charming appearance.
I saw her twisting her delicate body into a ball for a while, bringing her head and buttocks together; for a while, she lifted her graceful thighs above her head and hooked her neck.
This wonderfully beautiful miniature woman seemed to be born without bones. She was so weak and agile that she seemed to be like nothing. The audience around her was dumbfounded and curious.
When the petite and boneless woman was halfway through her performance, a cheerful and exotic music rhythm suddenly sounded from the backstage. A snow-white ape suddenly flew down from the height of the performance stage and landed lightly.
On the back of an elephant.
This white ape is half a head taller than the miniature woman, and its whole body is covered with long down as white as snow.
The ape's arms were longer than his knees, and he bared his bright white teeth and made faces at the audience, making the audience burst into laughter.
Then the hozen danced gracefully with the miniature woman on the back of the elephant. The monkey and the monkey swung their bodies and hips flexibly and playfully, and also played ambiguous actions such as stacking arhats. It was very funny and attracted many spectators to cheer.
The miniature woman standing proudly on the elephant's back looked at the audience while performing, but she saw three weirdos wearing pitch black cloaks and their heads tightly wrapped in hoods mixed in the crowd below.
These three cloaked figures stood motionless in the corner of the tent, stern and unsmiling, their bodies trapped in the shadows that could not be illuminated by light, looking a bit strange.
There was a sneer on the corner of the pocket woman's mouth, and she reached out and patted the elephant's back. As if the elephant understood what she meant, it rolled up its long trunk, rolled up her body, and placed her on the ground from its back.
The miniature woman turned somersaults several times on the stage, then suddenly floated into the crowd, her petite figure flashed, and she disappeared in an instant.
The audience in the audience turned their heads and looked around, looking for the figure of the mysterious woman, but they couldn't find it. At this time, the white ape and the elephant on the stage were cooperating with each other to perform performances of throwing torches and breathing flames.
, immediately drew the attention of the general audience back to the performance stage.
The three mysterious cloaked men standing in the corner always stood in the shadow where the light could not reach them. All three of them were wearing thick black cloaks, and their hoods were so tightly wrapped that their faces could not be seen clearly.
The person standing in the middle is as thin as a bamboo pole, and the two next to him are of medium build, just like ordinary people.
The cloaked man standing on the left suddenly felt something touching his waist. He reacted extremely quickly. With a flick of his wrist, one right hand touched his waist as fast as lightning, and then he grabbed the other tightly.
Soft little hands.
The owner of the little hand let out a soft "ouch", and it was clearly a woman's voice: "Why are you holding on so tightly? It hurts so much. Do you, a stinky man like you, understand how to show mercy?"
The three of them all focused their attention on the woman who appeared from the depths of darkness, only to see that the woman was only over three feet tall. She was clearly the miniature woman who was performing on the stage just now.
At this time, the woman was holding a small pale golden sign in her hand. There was a strange and crooked symbol engraved on the small sign. Seeing this, the mysterious cloaked man on the left quickly took the golden sign from his pocket.
The woman snatched it from her hand and put it into her arms.
The pocket-sized woman did not compete with him for the gold medal. She just looked at him calmly and said: "It must be His Royal Highness the Crown Prince of Dachu. The Dauchi Purple Banner in the palace. It's best not to bring low-class untouchables like us to gather.
Please come to a different place to avoid being overcrowded and causing unnecessary trouble."
As she spoke, she turned her gaze to the other mysterious guest on her right. Then she said with a faint smile: "Don't cover it up with your hood. This young master, your appearance is somewhat similar to that of your elder brother. I just don't know if his personality is the same."
It’s almost the same. Your Excellency should be His Royal Highness Prince Rui, the Fourth Prince of Chu, right?”
The identity of the person on her right was revealed at once. She asked uncontrollably: "Who are you?"
The miniature woman smiled brightly, turned to the tall and thin mysterious guest standing in the middle and said, "Please call me Rouge. You are here to see the saint, right? Please come with me, little woman."
After saying that, she turned around and walked out of the tent. The three cloaked men looked at each other, moved at the same time, and followed Rou Ji outside.
Rouji twisted her small waist, led the three mysterious guests out of the big red tent, walked around to the back of the tent, and walked towards the small khaki tents.
The three cloaked men followed closely behind her, when they suddenly realized that they had approached a strange tree that appeared out of thin air.
The fourth prince walking on the left suddenly felt a few branches of the sudden strange tree shaking slightly. He looked up in surprise and saw two colorful venomous snakes opening their big snake kisses, exposing several pointed fangs facing each other.
Himself. He let out a low cry in shock, and quickly dodged to the side, causing his brother, the Crown Prince, to stumble beside him. He was almost knocked down by him.
The prince and the fourth prince nervously looked at the strange tree, only to see a poisonous snake with bright red patterns on its body wrapped around the strange tree. This snake actually had two heads and only one slender body.
It’s a legendary two-headed snake!
The two-headed snake's four gloomy little eyes looked at them coldly, and its dark forked letters kept spitting and shrinking in the snake's kiss. It kept making a threatening sound of "hiss",
The shape is very scary.
Rouji, who was walking in front, looked back at the strange tree and said, "Attu, they are guests of the saint, let them come over."
The two princes only thought that Rouji was talking to the two-headed snake, but they didn't expect that the strange tree suddenly spoke: "No, you have to let me see their faces clearly, find relevant information in my memory, and confirm
They will not pose any danger to the Saint, so we can let them pass."
The two princes of Da Chu felt that their scalps were about to explode. How could a tree talk? At this time, another tall and thin mysterious guest next to them snorted and sneered softly: "You two
Your Highness, there is no need to be alarmed, this is nothing more than the mystical magic of the barbarian shaman and thaumaturge."
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw the strange tree suddenly swaying, and then the head of a young man appeared on the trunk. The two branches extending outward became two arms, and the twisted trunk became an ordinary person.
body and legs.
It turns out that this strange tree was transformed into a young man from the barbarian tribe.
This man was wearing brown bark-like clothes, with green-red tattoos embroidered on his brown-black skin, and the two-headed venomous snake just now was wrapped around his neck.
The young man named Atu looked up and down at the three cloaked visitors with a pair of green eyes, and said to them coldly: "Please pull down the hood."
The prince and the fourth prince pondered for a moment, then pulled down the hoods on their heads one after another. Only the mysterious guest standing in the middle remained motionless.
Artu first stared at the faces of the crown prince and the fourth prince, and then turned to the tall and thin Mysterio in the middle. He didn't say much, just stared at the bottom of Mysterio's hood with a pair of green eyes.
In the shadow, the two-headed snake wrapped around his neck also held up its two snake heads and kept making "hissing" sounds from its mouth.
Rouge walked up to the tall and thin cloaked man, raised her head and smiled gently at the mysterious guest and explained: "Artu is the admirer of our saint, you'd better let him see your appearance clearly, otherwise it will appear that you are dissatisfied with us.
This cooperation is so insincere, then Atu will always come to bother you." (To be continued...)
