When it was just getting dark, on the official road ten miles north of Baodu Pass, four demon spirits were galloping towards Baodu Pass. The leader of the demon spirits was wearing a bamboo hat and had the body of a horse but a human face.
The monster with tiger stripes on its body and bird wings on its back has two axes hanging on its waist, which is a heroic move.
Thirty days ago, Xiao Shizhu had just walked less than half an hour when Black and White Wuchang found him and asked him if he was the servant who killed King Chu Jiang a few days ago.
At that time, Yingzhao thought that Xiao Xie and Xiao Fan were coming to accuse him, and he suddenly felt that these two juniors were disrespectful and disrespectful, so he felt angry and evil in his heart, and then he had murderous thoughts in his heart.
Unexpectedly, before he could take action, Bai Wuchang had already taken out a Yin Shuai gold medal and stuffed it into his hand, while Hei Wuchang whispered to him: "You are so fat and dare to kill King Chu Jiang's servant, do you dare to do it again?"
Kill two ghosts?".
This nonsensical question not only confused Yingzhao, but also Lu Wutulu and Qinyuan, who had already drawn up their stance and were preparing to fight with Black and White Wuchang together with Yingzhao, were also stunned and didn't know.
What kind of medicine are these black and white brothers selling in their gourd?
Then, after Bai Wuchang briefly explained that King Qin Guang wanted to kill Xiao Shizhu Tucai, he said meaningfully to Yingzhao: "It's still too late to chase your eldest brother now; but if you want to compete with us brothers
We don't mind a spar. But Xiao Shizhu, I'm afraid his life is in danger!" After saying that, he pretended that nothing happened, and he and Hei Wuchang bypassed the four demon spirits and went to the ghost market.
go
"Second brother." Lu Wu, who was following Yingzhao, caught up from behind and walked side by side with Yingzhao. After frowning, a trace of worry flashed in his eyes, and then he said to Yingzhao: "We don't need to stay in Wangchuan."
For the Yinsi ferry on the river, you have to go downstream to cross the bridge and cross the river, so half a day was wasted here. And now I have been chasing him for thirty days and I still haven’t seen the big brother, so I’m just afraid of the big brother.”
"Shut up, Lu Wu!" Yingzhao scolded, interrupting Lu Wu's words, and at the same time quickened his pace and galloped away to the south. Lu Wu sighed, also quickened his pace, and chased after him.
Yingzhao never believed that Xiao Shizhu was blessed with good fortune, but the scene when he first met Xiao Shizhu and his cleverness would always come to his mind, giving him the confidence to continue pursuing him.
"No matter which way eldest brother takes, you must pass Baodu Pass to go to the Ghost Mother Country; and as long as eldest brother has not left the boundary of Liutian Continent, King Qin Guang will not dare to do anything to eldest brother. We can just go to the pass and wait." Yingzhao.
He turned to look at Lu Wu and said in a positive tone: "Brother Jiren has his own destiny, and everything will be fine." After saying that, the corners of his mouth turned up slightly.
After a while, the four demon spirits rushed to Baodu Pass, and they all stopped at the moat in front of the pass. At the same time, a dozen Yin soldiers guarding the pass immediately became vigilant when they saw them rushing over. Three Five
Groups of Yin soldiers, holding spears and swords, rushed out from under the city gate and surrounded them, asking loudly: "Who is coming?". There was a look of caution on their faces.
Yingzhao stepped forward non-stop. He held the gold medal given by Bai Wuchang in his right hand and raised it high. He looked around at the gleaming weapons around him and said loudly: "The special envoy of Bai Wuchang, the top ten shady commanders in Fengdu, has been ordered to go out."
Let the Ghost Mother Country inquire about the tribute."
As soon as Yingzhao finished speaking, a group of Yin soldiers came out and stood in front of him, holding a torch.
The hundred households looked carefully at the gold medal in Yingzhao's hand for a long time by the firelight. After confirming that it was genuine, they put away the vigilant look on their faces and coughed, and said to Yingzhao with a smile: "It turns out that he is the special envoy of Lord Black and White Wuchang."
Then he waved his hand to signal his men to disperse and let Ying Ying recruit them into the border.
After receiving the order, those Yin soldiers stepped aside one after another to make way for the four demon souls. Upon seeing this, Yingzhao put away his token, handed over his hand to the hundreds of households, and headed towards the pass with his head held high.
Lu Wu, who was following closely behind, suddenly stopped when he passed by Bai Hu, smiled at the Bai household, raised his hands and asked: "Excuse me, sir, were there two ghost guards earlier today?
A fair, thin and tall kid entered this pass and headed south." After saying that, he took out a few pieces of silver and quietly stuffed it into the hands of the hundreds of households.
"It seems there is." Baihu looked at the silver in his hand, thought for a moment, and said thoughtfully: "But they didn't go south."
"Where are you going?" Yingzhao, who had already taken four or five steps, suddenly felt happy when he heard this, and turned around and asked the hundred households in a hurry.
The hundred households suddenly showed a faint look of embarrassment, and kept silent while gently weighing the one tael of silver with their hands. When Lu Wu saw this, he knew that this was a man who was blind to money, so he took out another two taels of silver.
Stuffed it to him.
"Went to the city post station and stopped there." The hundred households didn't even raise their eyes. After saying this, they put the silver in their hands into their mouths and bit it.
"Thank you, Master." Lu Wu saluted him again, and then headed towards Guancheng with Yingzhao.
In the inn.
After ten seconds passed, Xiao Shizhu and Fat Gui Cha were facing each other, while the other Gui Cha was fast asleep.
The firearm in Xiao Shizhu's hand is called the Lianzhu gun. It is a firearm similar to a modern flintlock gun. It has a bullet concept that integrates magazine and warhead gunpowder. It can be fired continuously, and has "three points and one line", which is accurate.
It has the advantages of high speed, long range, and can shoot through the enemy's heavy armor from 250 meters away. The most powerful thing is that this kind of firearm can store 28 rounds of projectiles.
Twenty-eight bullets are enough to kill this ghost twenty-eight times.
Although the guns in the underworld cannot hurt the soul, the gun in Xiao Shizhu's hands at this moment is made by the orthodox underworld. From the barrel to the gun body and the bullets inside, they are all made from the underworld, so it can kill people.
Damn it.
Speaking of this firearm, he bought it from a smuggler in a quiet corner of the Fengdu black market a few days ago. It cost him a full fifty taels of silver and made him, a wealthy man, feel distressed for several days.
At the beginning of the period, his purpose of buying a gun was simply to prevent the Mohists from coming to trouble him, and to get it for self-defense. Unexpectedly, it has become his life-saving straw now.
"Da, Da Ming, Da Ming law stipulates." The fat man Guicha, who looked frightened and was getting heavier and heavier, looked at the gun in his hand, trembled slightly, and said tremblingly:
"In the underworld, ordinary people in the underworld are not allowed to hold guns privately."
"Oh? Really?" Xiao Shizhu admired the cold sweat on his forehead, snorted softly, and asked: "Then the quasi-officer committed suicide privately?" At this time, Xiao Shizhu was no longer a newcomer to the underworld.
Ghost, he still knows a little bit about the so-called "Great Underworld Law" set by Emperor Fengdu. It is true that people are not allowed to hold guns privately, but officials are not allowed to kill ghosts without authorization, even if the ghost is the lowest human soul.
Not allowed either.
When he asked him this question, the ghost immediately ran out of words. He was at a loss for words and didn't know what to say.
After a moment of ideological struggle, he swallowed, gritted his teeth and stamped his feet, and said slowly to Xiao Shizhu: "Brother, I, I didn't mean to, I want you to die, I, I, I
There's nothing you can do about it; please spare me." As he spoke, his legs shook even more. Then, the fingers of his right hand loosened, and the dagger fell from his hand and fell on the bed. Then he raised his hands high in surrender.
shape.
"I, I, I spared you, who, who, who spared me?" Xiao Shizhu imitated him and stammered after saying this, then continued to admire his scared look, and rolled his eyes.
, began to make nonsense: "King Qin Guang asked me to take your life. His old man said that you have betrayed him many times. Do you think I will kill you or not?" He dared to make such nonsense.
, because he saw that this guy dared to betray his master in order to survive. He was not a tough guy but also a villain with no loyalty at all. So he started to prescribe the right medicine and talk nonsense, trying to scare this guy first.
After all, he was not in the wilderness at this time, but in a heavily guarded military fortress, surrounded by strong Yin soldiers. As long as the gunshots were fired, he would definitely not be able to escape, and the charge of assassinating Onizashi would be confirmed.
.
By then, let alone reincarnation, he might be hacked to death by the well-trained Yin soldiers in this pass on the spot, so he didn’t dare to shoot rashly. And why did the other party use a knife to assassinate him, and why did he have to kill him with a knife?
When sleeping, it is just for the sake of silence.
The ghost was stunned when he heard the words, and looked at Xiao Shizhu who was smiling but not smiling in disbelief. Then he bent his knees and slowly knelt on the ground, with tears and snot flowing out from his eyes and nose at the same time. His whole body was trembling, and he was not at ease.
Dare to breathe.
Seeing how cowardly he was, Xiao Shizhu knew that he had successfully frightened the opponent, so he hurriedly struck while the iron was hot, and whispered to the ghost: "With my relationship with Lao Qin, do you really think he will kill me? Let you kill me.
It's a false order, just to stabilize you and make you think that he still trusts you."
Despair and fear followed Xiao Shizhu's words, slowly crawling out of Guizha's eyes, intertwined between his brows. Xiao Shizhu knew at a glance that his wit had saved his life again, and at the same time he relaxed a little.
alert.
He smiled and stretched out his left hand, glanced at the ghost with a joking look, and then pinched the other person's chubby face and said: "The food of the underworld government is good, this one is not good."
How can a brat eat so much and get so fat?".
As soon as he started speaking, a hint of murderous intent flashed in the ghost's eyes. When he finished speaking, the ghost had already lowered his right hand with lightning speed, quickly grasped the dagger that had fallen on the bed, and then moved his hand back.
With a retraction, the tip of the knife pointed at Xiao Shizhu's heart again.
This ghost suddenly became bolder because Xiao Shizhu put pressure on him and forced him to a dead end.
Fat Guichai believed Xiao Shizhu's words from the bottom of his heart. While he was scared, he felt that killing the other person would mean death, and not killing him would mean death. It would be better to kill the boy and keep his money as his own, and never return to Fengdu to see King Qin Guang.
, just find a place to live in seclusion.
Anyway, the underworld is very big. There are tens of thousands of evil spirits escaping from hell every year, and King Qin Guang may not be able to find him. So he became worried and suddenly attacked.
Just when the dagger in his hand was once again within an inch or two of Xiao Shizhu's heart, the door to the room was suddenly kicked open. Then Xiao Shizhu felt a whirlwind coming towards him from the door, causing a series of whooshing sounds.
It passed under his right arm.
Then Xiao Shizhu, who had not yet recovered, saw the ghost's right arm holding the dagger separated from the front half and the back half, shot up, spun a few times in the air, and landed on the ground.
Seeing the ghost holding his broken arm and lying on the ground, grinning and rolling around, Xiao Shizhu was also shocked. At the same time, he was thankful that the ghost's hand was broken when the dagger was only an inch away from his heart.
He glanced at the ground beside the bed and breathed a long sigh of relief when he saw an ax stuck on the ground at Guizhao's feet. Then he raised his head and turned to look towards the door. He saw Yingzhao standing there.
At the door, followed by Lu Wutulu and other demon spirits, he smiled lightly and said: "What a critical moment."
