When it doesn't snow in the north in winter...or rather it snows for a while, then after the snow stops, on a bright moon night, the entire wilderness will be white, like a huge mirror.
Snow-white mirror.
Such a scene requires three conditions: the snow is big enough, the ground is big enough, and the moon's light is bright enough.
The only ones that can meet these three conditions at the same time are the Northern Territory and the Demonic Territory further north.
In this snow-white scenery, the red-sleeved demon king walked out of the tent. The commander of the demon clan now looked sickly pale.
There was a deep sense of fatigue deep in his eyes.
Xilu was originally standing not far away, but now he has walked over. Looking at the red dress of the red-sleeved demon king, she can feel her sadness and fatigue, but she doesn't know what to say to comfort her.
she.
"I acquiesced in Jing Zhu's death. I wanted to sacrifice Jing Zhu's life in exchange for him taking action and for us to capture Gufengkou. I knew that he didn't want Jing Zhu to live for a long time, but I didn't expect that he would
Everyone is counted among themselves.”
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord suddenly turned around and looked at Xilu, very frustrated.
This emotion is easy to understand at this moment. For the victory of the demon clan, the red-sleeved demon king not only gave up his life long ago, but even his favorite high priest was abandoned by her, but in the end, in exchange for
The result made her feel very chilled.
It's not that the demon clan has suffered heavy losses at this moment, but that their most powerful ruler has never cared about the lives of the demon clan's people.
How could such a demon emperor not disappoint people?
Xilu asked: "Where did he go after leaving Gufengkou?"
"What happened to the human race? Why did those Fuyun demons agree to him and come out?"
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord looked at Xilu and asked this question, which actually meant he got the answer.
Xilu suddenly thought of that sacred mountain and the magical medicine in that sacred mountain. I was afraid that nothing else in the world could have such an attraction to the Demon Emperor.
"He made such a plot and included us all, just so that he could finally go to the sacred mountain and find the magic medicine. For this reason, no matter how many people died or the situation of the battle, he didn't care."
A trace of confusion flashed deep in Xi Lu's eyes. As for her father, as she spent more and more time with him over the years, she naturally got to know him better and better, but no matter how well she understood him, Xi Lu actually couldn't believe it.
, his father, as the master of the entire demon realm, would actually act like this.
In his heart, does he really think that there are no people from the demon clan at all?
"Xilu, go back to the royal city, you know what you should do."
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord looked at Xilu and didn't say anything more. He just made a decision.
Xilu glanced at her and was silent for a long time, but did not speak.
After a while, she turned around and walked towards the north.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord suddenly shouted, "Xi Lu, I'll rely on you from now on."
Xi Lu didn't turn around, but nodded.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord smiled and watched his descendant leave.
In the past few years, she often read some books from the human race. At first, she read very miscellaneous books, because it was not easy to get books from the human race, so those books never had so-called categories, they were all about what they saw.
What to read? Among those books, the most common ones are romance novels.
Scholars who have not passed the exam and have read books for so long are naturally useful. Some people will become letter writers, some will return to their hometowns and become teachers in private schools in the village, and some will become teachers in private schools in the village.
I would write some sour stories to make a living.
There are too many novels about talented people and beauties, and the common people don’t like them that much, at least not every one of them. But the Red Sleeve Demon Lord has never been exposed to those things, so when he first read them, it seemed like he had opened a wonderful door.
For a period of time, she couldn't help herself. Every day she thought about leaving the demon clan with the high priest and finding a place to live in the human clan. They didn't know anyone, so they could live quietly for the rest of their lives, have some children, and watch.
As they grow up, it is very interesting to think about such a day.
But after several years of watching, she realized that there was no way to do these things. Even if she could abandon the demon clan and ignore those things, it was impossible for the high priest.
In fact, this is very simple, that is, just change someone else. Why does it have to be a high priest?
There are many things in this world that can replace many things, but there are also many things that cannot be replaced.
The high priest is that kind of person.
After thinking about this, the Red Sleeve Demon Lord was no longer interested in those romantic novels, and instead read some historical books and the history of the human race, as if he could understand the past and present life of this race. That is, starting from that time,
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord began to look at the human race seriously. She discovered a very interesting but also terrifying thing from the history books, that is, although the human race has always been weak, they have actually experienced the edge of extinction many times in the past thousand years.
, but on that cliff, they never fell off, but survived tenaciously.
During those times, a few particularly powerful people would always appear and pull their race back from the brink of extinction.
This answer made her a little wary.
Then she started to collect current affairs articles from the human race, and when she read the so-called complaints, she saw something even more terrifying.
In the past few hundred years, those scholars have been complaining that the world is very bad, the monarch is inactive, the people are oppressed, and the sky seems to be covered with dark clouds. But in the past few decades, the scholars are still complaining, but no one complains anymore
The monarch has done nothing and the world is in a bad state. Instead, he is complaining that the monarch is a bit tough and not so good-natured.
Those articles gradually began to praise the world and those in power. What does this mean? Of course the Red Sleeve Demon Lord knows, it means that the demon clan is facing an unprecedented human race, and is facing an unprecedented human race.
The leader, that dynasty called Daliang Dynasty, seems to have a special charm that makes everything change for the better.
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord couldn't help but think of the Demon Realm. Is there any difference among the Demon Clan over the years?
It seems that they have never been like this. They have been like this for thousands of years. They have never produced outstanding leaders, they have never had other ideas as a whole, and they don't even recognize the word unity.
As for the Demon Emperor, he is indeed very strong, but he is just a powerful demon clan, not an outstanding leader.
In essence, he is no different from those demon emperors in the past. They are both leaders who enslave their own race.
This kind of thing has been like this for thousands of years in the past, and it has never changed. The demon clan has not had any problems, but has it always been like this?
Is it always good like this?
The Red Sleeve Demon Lord originally just thought that the race could not be allowed to continue to grow stronger and that this race should be destroyed before they threatened the demon race. She had not actually thought about other things.
But now she feels that after wiping out the human race, the demon clan will still be led by the demon emperor, which may not be a good thing for those demon clans.
She raised her eyes and glanced at the bright moon in the sky.
My life is destined to be lost in search of the high priest, but before that, can't I do something else?
In the end, the high priest only thought about destroying the human race and what would happen if he died.
The Red Sleeve Demon King felt it was not enough.
"Jing Zhu, if something goes wrong, don't blame me... at least don't avoid me."
The Red-sleeved Demon Lord laughed and then waved.
Somewhere in the distance, the sound of a vast horn resounded throughout the earth.
No matter what happens, the war cannot stop and the human race will be destroyed.
Especially now that Gufengkou is in her hands and the human race is at its weakest.
…
…
The Demon Clan's army had only been repaired for a short time, and its fatigue had not completely dissipated. After hearing the sound of the horn, the Demon Clan soldiers walked out of their respective tents sleepily, with anger and irritability naturally in their eyes.
There should be a certain time for the war to start. It cannot start suddenly. What's more, it is still night at the moment. It should at least wait until daytime and wait for them to sleep well.
So the anger at this moment comes from the depths of the soul and is not false at all.
They didn't learn much these days, but they still understood the meaning of military orders. They knew that if they didn't go to the top of the city when they heard the trumpet, they would die.
So all the monster soldiers began to join the queue, and under the command of various generals, they started to attack the city again.
Although they were angry this time, they were still a little excited. They heard that a certain pass of the human race had been captured. In other words, they were very close to taking down the Great Wall of the North in front of them.
Just a matter of time.
If you work harder, you may be able to say goodbye to war!
No one likes war, not even monsters.
…
…
The large number of frontier soldiers on the city were very silent. In terms of fatigue, they were twice as many as the monsters or more, but they were the ones who could not be discouraged.
Gufengkou has been lost, and the General's Mansion cannot be lost.
If this place is lost, then the Northern Great Wall of the Liang Dynasty will really be broken. After this Great Wall is broken, they will cross here and go further south. When the time comes... their relatives will be in fear and
Die in pain.
Thinking of this, the soldiers' eyes became more determined, and their hands holding the swords became tighter.
…
…
The atmosphere in the meeting hall was also very solemn.
"Both the General's Mansion and Gufengkou need people."
"I am a general. I was supposed to be in charge of the general's mansion, but General Xie is definitely more suitable than me, so I want to go there."
Ning Ping calmly stated his decision. This time, no one refuted anything.
"I will guard the border over there and prevent the monster clan from penetrating through the General's Mansion from Gufeng Pass, don't worry."
As he spoke, Ning Ping stood up and was about to leave the General's Mansion, but after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped again and said, "I am not dead. When I was not in the General's Mansion, I ordered Xie Nandu to leave.
If I die, according to convention, she will be the new general."
Ning Ping pulled the corners of his lips and smiled: "Everyone, don't be discouraged. The worst outcome is that we all die together in the north."
Everyone laughed bitterly.
If it is just oneself that dies, then there is nothing to be sad about, but is it just oneself that dies?
People looked at Ning Ping's back, but no one said anything.
After he left, a general said: "The general has taken away part of the troops, why don't we activate the general's camp?"
A few days ago, the border army mobilized a group of capable veterans to form a new army called Xiaojiangying. These days, when the war happened, they never showed up.
The generals didn't understand why.
Xie Nandu just looked at the map and said calmly: "I keep them for other purposes."
"But the situation is so bad now, I'm afraid I won't be able to wait until that time."
Some generals frowned, isn't the current situation bad enough?
Xie Nandu looked at him and didn't speak for a long time, which made the general become a little nervous. He didn't know what the female general opposite was thinking, but he knew very well that she had always been a little unreasonable. Maybe he would do it later.
It would be a scolding.
But in the end Xie Nandu didn't speak.
She was also thinking, would it really be useful to keep them all this time?
