The refreshing morning breeze and fresh air dispelled the smiles and boredom of Xiao Shizhu. The mountains on the north and south sides of the valley roared on the peaks, and the grass swayed under the trees and trees, which was quite like "the cicadas are louder and the forest is quieter, and the birds are singing on the mountain.
More secluded" artistic conception.
Next to the car, the Queen of Huangquan had sent maids in bright and dazzling colors and complex and rich patterns to welcome Xiao Shizhu and the others.
It was rare for them to see that they were not wearing animal skins and leather skirts, but Xiao Shizhu and the others were much more pleasing to them. On the other hand, the female ghost cavalry such as Ke Yun looked very much like barbarians.
Just as he saw Xiao Shizhu and the others walking out of the car door one after another, walked slowly down the small ladder he had set up, and stood on the ground. The maids saluted each other and said softly to the head female ghost: "Welcome to distinguished guests."
Following these beautiful and beautiful maids were ghost soldiers wearing various totem masks. What was rare was not leather armor made of animal skins, but animal-faced breastplate made of bronze.
But the weapons in their hands are still so weird.
In front of the car, on the clear lakeside pier, a slender hull without a slurry was waiting on the shore.
Although it is a pulp boat made of wooden boards, the hull is carved with exquisite patterns such as tigers, turtles, peacocks, flower pedestals, etc. The pulp boat is therefore simple, but not simple.
"Did you take us to see your queen?" Xiao Shizhu did not rush to step, but stood by the side of the car and looked around. Even the maid had a short knife hanging around her waist, which showed that there were many martial arts here.
The maid in the lead kept lowering her head and replied softly: "Yes."
After a pause, he said, "The Queen is in the Holy Palace on the island in the lake, and I wish you all."
At the same time, Ke Yun, who escorted them all the way here, turned over and jumped off her Dangkang mount, walked forward two or three steps, and came to Xiao Shizhu.
The tall Ke Yun apologized to Xiao Shizhu, bowed slowly, and said, "Son of God, I can only escort you here. Ke Yun is still in charge of military affairs, so Ke Yun can't go into the palace to see the queen.
.”.
"Well, I've worked hard all the way." Xiao Shizhu also returned the greeting, took his followers and turned around, followed the maids toward the port.
For some reason, in front of the calm lake water, Xiao Shizhu was more vigilant. Perhaps in addition to getting closer and closer to the strange Queen of the Yellow Springs, there was also the sense of oppression brought by the continuous mountains on both sides of the valley.
After boarding the slurry boat, the boat paddled with a paddle, broke through the calm water surface and raised waves. The slurry boat slowly moved forward, like an arrow passing by the water surface, leaving a break on the lake surface.
After the waves of water, it rushed into the clouds floating on the lake.
In a blink of an eye, the slurry boat was covered with mist and disappeared in front of the ghosts on the shore such as Ke Yun.
In the mist, the national teacher Yingying saw the cold breeze rolling up on the lake, and the clear water and snow waves surging, took out the silver threaded cloak and put it on Xiao Shizhu. Xiao Shizhu did not dodge, and did not move, and stood straight.
On the boat, staring around at the mist floating around.
The lake surface was extremely quiet, and only the sound of long slurry shattering the lake surface, echoing slowly in the mist. After rushing into the mist, Xiao Shizhu's eyes were blurred by the mist; except for the lake water beside the boat
, Nothing can be seen very clearly.
After the national teacher Yingying put on him a cloak, he also concentrated his mind and sensational everything around him.
Soon, she sensed through the vast mist that there was a lot of ghost energy on the shore far ahead. However, there was no murderous aura or danger in the ghost energy, so she felt a little relieved.
The pulp boat continued to move forward in the fog.
This lake in the valley is not small, but the island in the lake is not too far from the shore. In less than a cup of tea, the pulp boat rushed out of the mist and came to the shore in the lake.
There are nearly a hundred acres of islands in the lake, which are oval-shaped inlaid on the clear and clear lake water. There are many caves on the island and lush mountains with lush grass and trees. The unfathomable lake water reveals itself, forming an island barrier.
Before getting off the boat, Xiao Shizhu was curious why Queen Huangquan built her residence here. Once she was besieged, it would be a disaster. When she arrived on the island, he immediately realized that the area was steep, with cliffs on the east, south and north sides.
The stone walls are as easy to defend but difficult to attack. Only on the west side where the ship is docked, the terrain is still quite smooth.
The most important thing is that this place is different from other places in the valley. The earth veins are full of yin energy, which makes the ghosts feel refreshed just after they hit the island.
For the ghost tribe, the more abundant the place with yin energy, the more conducive it is to survive. The ghosts living here can keep them full of energy and energetic at any time.
It seems that this Queen of the Yellow Spring is also a ghost who can choose a place to live.
The breeze is coming, and the water waves are rippling.
When they landed, they saw the guard of honor waiting on the shore. The neat guard of honor was standing side by side on both sides of the road. When they saw Xiao Shizhu stepping off the boat and walking onto the gravel beach, the guard of honor immediately knelt down.
Welcome to Xiao Shizhu's arrival.
This series of welcomes made Xiao Shizhu's vigilance even more.
It is illogical that we have never met, just receiving Xiao Shizhu and the others with such enthusiasm. It is escorted by personal soldiers and the guard of honor to take over the horse.
Maybe he was too careful, maybe this Queen of the Yellow Springs was really good at calculating and had no malice, so she treated her with courtesy.
However, after thinking about it, Xiao Shizhu still stood on the shore and did not move for a long time. He just turned his head slightly and looked at Qin Yuan. Qin Yuan on his shoulder was silently understanding, quietly spreading his wings and flying high, while the ghosts were not paying attention.
It sank into the fog above and disappeared.
It is necessary to guard against others. This place is not the Nine Nether Kingdom of the underworld, so Xiao Shizhu has to first villain and then gentleman.
Qin Yuancai quietly disappeared into the fog while the person was unprepared. There was a female ghost in front of Xiao Shizhu. The lotus steps moved out of the mist and came towards Xiao Shizhu.
The female ghost walked slowly to Xiao Shizhu and stood still. After making a fortune, she asked softly: "Is this the Son of God?"
"Yes." Xiao Shizhu nodded and answered, looked at the female ghost and asked, "Are you the Queen of the Yellow Spring?"
I saw that this female ghost looked only seventeen or eighteen years old. Her snow-white dress made her look clear and empty, but she lacked some majesty and decisiveness in her softness. She was definitely not someone who could bear the great responsibility, let alone
Like a character.
After asking this, Xiao Shizhu predicted that this female ghost was just a servant of the Queen of Huangquan. Judging from her elegant but excellent dresses and luxurious accessories, the status of this servant is not low.
"The Son of God misunderstood. I am just a maid next to the Queen of Huangquan." The female ghost was in the lake wind again, and she made a little happy, put her hair behind her ears, and said, "The Queen should have been."
He came to greet him in person, but was afraid that the Son of God would be suspicious and wanted to act as a diligent act without any trouble, so he asked his servants to come and lead the way and invite the Son of God to meet in the palace."
"Then I'll have a hard time." Xiao Shizhu said calmly without changing his expression. However, he was curious again, but he was eager to see the Queen of the Yellow Springs.
"Please." The female ghost nodded and turned sideways, leading Xiao Shizhu and the others toward the island...
The underworld of Dongyingzhou.
The light of the Yin Moon is that the Lingshi Forest in the northwest of Jingren Kingdom is covered with a layer of blue light like thin frost, like deep sea water, making each Lingshi tree delicate and smooth under the moonlight.
The noise caused by the big explosion in the forest a few days ago disappeared for a long time, and the tranquility returned to the forest.
At midnight, the forest was even quieter. Although the mountain wind was howling, the hard branches and leaves of the tombstone trees remained motionless. There was a lot less noise.
The moonlight was faint, and Zhu Maichen sat in the forest with hundreds of ghost soldiers. In addition to the moonlight sprinkled between the branches, his face was full of fatigue.
After coming in for a few days, he took thousands of ghost soldiers who were not killed in the explosion and were wandering around the complex terrain and bright green forest.
Finally found an exit and came to the southeast edge of the forest. However, I never thought that I had encountered the Jiuyou Kingdom Army as soon as I walked out of the forest.
The tired and hungry Fengdu Army had not yet reacted, and the Jiuyou National Army aimed at the guns and cannons in their hands and fired them in a row.
In the blink of an eye, thousands of Fengdu troops died tragically by the woods.
The panicked Fengdu Army and Zhu Maichen did not expect that the Jiuyou Army, the army of Jiuyou, had reached this place in a few days, and fled in panic, without any power to fight back.
However, the guns and cannons of the Jiuyou Kingdom Army were too fierce and dense. In three or five efforts, more than half of Zhu Maichen's army had to retreat to the forest, hoping to escape with the complex terrain in the forest.
But the Jiuyou National Army did not seem to have the intention to rush in. After entering them and retreating to the forest, they stopped firing. Then the cavalry went out to chase those who had escaped from the forest, thinking about other places outside the forest, and fled in panic.
The Fengdu Army has gone.
After a few days of testing, the Fengdu army could not kill the Lingshi Forest, so they had to follow Zhu Maichen to return to the woods and hide in Tibet.
Fortunately, the Jiuyou Army did not break into the forest for some reason. However, the forest lacked food and water sources, and there was little medicine and no doctor. After a few days, most of the wounded soldiers around Zhu Maichen died in the forest.
Tonight, only hundreds of personal soldiers were left.
Zhu Maichen, who was leaning against a thick stone tree, looked up through the branches and looked at the moon in the sky, with a little sadness on his face.
Thinking about how powerful he was when he was ordered to go to this place from Fengdu, the local princes and kings also bowed to him and bowed down.
Now, he was defeated, and he could only live a life of escaping in this forest with his defeated generals. Think about it, it was thirty years since Hedong and thirty years after Hexi.
"Taiwei, I can't figure it out." Just as Zhu Maichen thought about it, he felt more and more aggrieved. He couldn't help but sigh in the moonlight. His current deputy general came over and sat next to him: "Jiuyou
The Kuomintang army wandered outside the forest, which means that the Jingren Kingdom had fallen. Since that is the case, why didn’t they come into the forest? Instead, they just surrounded us outside the forest?"
As he spoke, the face of the dirt-faced deputy general was full of doubts. His blood-stained eyebrows also frowned slightly.
He has been unable to understand this problem recently. He took advantage of the fact that there was nothing to do today and was really curious, so he dared to ask Zhu Maichen.
"In order to let us die in this forest, we are not as tired as other forests, and lack food and water, we are trapped to death. It is easier than to encircle and suppress it in this complex forest. We can wait for our work and let me do it.
Loss of contact with the army outside." Zhu Maichen put away his grief, and after patiently explaining to the general, he sighed softly, and sincerely sighed: "The commanders of the Jiuyou Kingdom Army here are all amazing ghosts.
.There are so many geniuses in Jiuyou Kingdom, and our Beiyin Dynasty has come to an end."
Under the moonlight, Zhu Maichen's face was sad again after saying this, but it increased instead of reducing but instead of before.
