The wick of the oil lamp crackled. A few sparks burst out from it and jumped out.
The wind and sand outside the house are still so strong. The howling sound is like the roar of a tiger in the forest, and the sharp roar is filled with a fearful sound.
After Ke Yun said those words, other ghosts also thought of this.
Xiao Shizhu can use the Dingfeng Bead to kill the ghosts, and the pursuers of the Queen of Yellow Springs can also follow suit. In this way, they can attack Hei Lei Mountain in this not-so-hard storm. Before launching another attack
Ambushes were set up in the strange stone valley behind Heilei Mountain.
Just wait for the war to begin, just force Xiao Shizhu and the others into the valley, and Xiao Shizhu and the others will inevitably be ambushed.
But on the contrary, if Xiao Shizhu and his team were moving fast enough, they could set up an ambush in the valley in advance and instead led the pursuers to join the army.
"When will the wind and sand stop?" Thinking of this, Xiao Shizhu asked this while looking at Ke Yun with admiration.
Ke Yun has not been in vain in recent battles. During the war, this female ghost general has accumulated a lot of combat experience and has also learned to think from the perspective of others to formulate the most effective strategy.
Xiao Shizhu was a little lucky. She was not blinded by Yuzhong and stood on the side of the Queen of Huangquan. Otherwise, Xiao Shizhu would inevitably be in trouble for this retreat.
"It probably stops at night. It's just a small wind and sand, often not more than twelve hours." Ke Yun relied on her familiar experience with the local climate, recalling the weather outside the house and the intensity of the storm,
After silently calculating the time and seasons in my mind, I slowly said: "But it may also be possible to push it out a few hours in advance or delay it."
Xiao Shizhu stopped thinking about it. He had already thought of a way, waved to the ghosts, signaled them to lean over and approach, and whispered to them quietly, then straightened up and said, "We're doing this,
Then escape at night.”
After thinking about it, the ghosts felt that the plan he muttered was very credible, so they nodded one after another and agreed.
"Then let's go and prepare well. Ke Yun stayed, I have something to tell you." Xiao Shizhu said, handing the rolled-up map to the national teacher Yingying, and solemnly reminding the ghosts.
: "Remember don't make any mistakes, otherwise we will all die."
"No." After the ghosts who had already stood up saluted him, the national teacher Yingying took out a medicine bottle from his sleeve and handed it to Xiao Shizhu: "I remember you have to take three pills in half an hour.
It can help you recover some strength and clear the meridians."
"Is it bitter?" Xiao Shizhu, who took the medicine bottle, frowned. Obviously, the concern that suddenly appeared in his eyes was nothing more than fear of the smell of the pills in the bottle.
"Sweet and cool." After the national teacher Yingying said, he walked out of the house with other ghosts.
After they all went out and closed the thick stone door, Xiao Shizhu took the small medicine bottle that he had looked left and right several times back into his arms.
"Ke Yun, are you sure you want to follow us?" Xiao Shizhu looked up again and looked at Ke Yun with the faint fire in the house: "Actually you can stay; you can say that I was holding you hostage and you wanted you to adjust.
Soldiers, who escorted me out of the valley, can also be used as a reason to exempt me from guilt."
Xiao Shizhu really thinks about her; after all, if you want to choose a ghost that is not favored in the underworld, Xiao Shizhu will definitely be shortlisted in the top three. Following Xiao Shizhu is tantamount to destroying his future.
But after hearing this, Ke Yun didn't think much about it, but instead laughed.
The smile was so bright, as romantic as blooming mountain flowers.
"I can't go back. If you let me go, I will die. The Queen of Huangquan can kill you, her benefactor, let alone us ministers?" Ke Yun's smile did not diminish, and her eyes were firm: "I want to
Let me go with you to see the underworld, the place where our ancestors were born, and then look at your Nine Nether Kingdom."
Having said that, Ke Yun suddenly had a little more anticipation in her eyes.
"What about your family?" Xiao Shizhu couldn't laugh, but instead asked with a little concern.
"My family has already died in battle. I am the last ghost of the Ke family." Ke Yun's eyes suddenly dimmed a lot, and she lowered her head slightly to avoid Xiao Shizhu's sadness that quickly emerged in her eyes: "The long-term war has caused
We were covered in bruises and wounds, my father, brother, brother, sister-in-law, my little nephew, nieces, and nephews, all died one after another in the war. They either died at the hands of the enemy or in the disease caused by the war."
.
"Sorry, I, I don't know, I didn't mean to mention your sad things." Xiao Shizhu quickly apologized; although he and Ke Yun have been together day and night in the past few months, they have never asked each other about their private affairs. Ke Yun's
A calm tone of his miserable behavior made him stunned.
"It's okay, it's all over." Ke Yun seemed to be indifferent, waved her hand and said, "You are here, your performance of ending the war has given me hope. I think from now on, I will be like me in the underworld from now on
Children with a tragic past will become more and more. But unexpectedly, our great queen has done such a destruction of peace!”.
After speaking, Ke Yun's eyes were full of contempt, and at last he couldn't help but snorted coldly. The humming was full of contempt for the Queen of the Yellow Spring.
"So I want to go and see what the ghost country you created is like?" After a pause, Ke Yun put away his contemptuous gaze and said with a smile.
"What about your soldiers? What about their families?" Xiao Shizhu asked again with a slight head.
"Do you know why my army is nicknamed the Widows Army by my compatriots?" Ke Yun asked back, and after a trace of suspicion flashed across Xiao Shizhu's face, his smile increased instead: "In my army, all the soldiers
Both men and women are orphans on the battlefield. The Queen of Huangquan felt that they would be angry because of this, and transferred them to my subordinates and guarded the border with me. And in order to maintain our anger towards the enemy, we are not allowed to fall in love, get married and have children, so we call it
Widow Army.”
It is difficult for Xiao Shizhu to be shocked. Now that he heard these inside stories, he was so shocked that he opened his lips slightly and could not speak for a long time.
This approach can indeed keep the soldiers focused, but I don’t know how long it can last.
"You'd better go and ask. If you don't want to leave, you can follow us if you're willing." After a while, Xiao Shizhu insisted: "I won't force anyone."
"Yes." Ke Yun thought for a while, responded, stood up, bowed to Xiao Shizhu, and turned around and left the stone chamber.
After she left, Xiao Shizhu pulled out the soul of Ruyu from the painting from her sleeve. After unfolding it in front of her, she asked Ruyu in the painting: "You have heard of the way to find fragrance, right? You are knowledgeable and well-educated.
, Help me determine if it is reliable to enter the blood pool?"...
In the evening, the wind and sand in the southern part of the Yellow Springs became much smaller. The dust that rolled up could only cover the gradually sinking sunset and the sunset in the sky with a faint haze.
Xiaoyue, wearing the Dingfeng Bead, commanded the cavalry under his command to wear the Dingfeng Bead, roar out of the valley and rushed into the dim wind and sand.
Among this mighty pursuer, in addition to most beast souls that look the same as Xiaoyue, there are many cavalry that need to rely on mounts to keep up with Xiaoyue and the others, and come from the defenders in the Huangquan Holy Land.
These mighty ghost soldiers followed Xiaoyue all the way north, and then ran out of ten miles before splitting into two. Some of them continued to gallop north with Xiaoyue and rushed straight to Heilai Mountain. The rest were to go to Heilai Mountain.
Going eastward, it soon disappeared into the wind and sand at dusk.
Even the long footprints left behind were gradually buried under the wind and sand.
The dusk soon disappeared without a trace in front of the ghosts' eyes, and the darkness had already enveloped the earth. Although the overwhelming wind and sand had become much smaller, it had not completely subsided. The world was still gray and yellow.
Xiaoyue, who was leading the way, looked into the distance, and saw the outline of the Black Thunder Mountain not far away, which was faintly visible behind the wind and sand in the dark.
After a flash of excitement in Xiaoyue's eyes, bloodthirsty desire appeared. The four claws on the ground accelerated and rushed towards the Feith God.
Dust is flying, wind and sand are howling.
He led the army to rush to the bottom of Heilai Mountain for half a cup of tea. The walls and stone chambers on the mountain were even more clear.
Xiaoyue's men did not need his orders to go up the mountain after he killed one after another. These beast souls with two wolf heads continued to use their four claws, jumped and ran among the rocks on the hillside. Or fought with manpower
After climbing up and climbing over the wall between the rocks in the mountains, slowly pulling out the sword on the back of the waist, or taking off the crossbow and lifting it in your hand, carefully and orderly approaching each room in the mountains
Stone house and stone chamber.
Soon, the entire Hei Lei Mountain was full of ghost soldiers. They grinned their teeth. They held the weapons in their hands, staring at each stone room and stone house with vigilant eyes, but they were restless inside.
Be eager to try.
But they could only restrain themselves. Before receiving the signal from the roaring moon, all ghost soldiers must hold their breath and not act rashly.
After a while, these ghost soldiers waited for the signal. It was the sharp wolf roaring sound when they jumped to the top of the mountain.
Amid the signal, the Huangquan ghost soldiers who had already divided the work and cooperated. Some ghost soldiers were responsible for breaking the door and opening the window. Some ghost soldiers were responsible for entering the house one after the doors and windows were opened, and they would kill them when they saw ghosts.
The rest is responsible for keeping the surroundings and avoiding ambush.
In the wind and sand, the sharp roar of the roaring moon was still echoing on the top of the mountain, and all the ghost soldiers in the mountain had already started to act. The stone chambers and stone houses were opened one after another. The ghost soldiers in the yellow spring rushed into the house one after another; they were moving quickly,
It's like a gust of wind.
After a while, the sound of swords colliding did not sound as expected, and the sound of feather arrows fired did not come. There was no scream or fighting in every room.
The wind and sand were still roaring, and the ghost soldiers of the Yellow Spring who were rushing into the room looked at each other, at a loss.
What they faced was just empty houses. Although the traces of Xiao Shizhu and his friends stayed in the house were still left in the house, no ghost soldier was left here.
After a long time, the confused ghost soldiers walked out of the house one after another, and all the weapons they were holding high were hanging down with their lowered arms.
After they left the house, they all spread their hands and shook their heads to show that they had a waste of time and lost their results.
Soon, a messenger rushed to the top of the mountain and came to Xiaoyue who was looking around. He knelt down and replied: "General, Xiao Shizhu and the others ran away. There are traces of their stay in every stone chamber in the mountain.
It smells, but no ghost soldier stays here."
Xiaoyue, who withdrew her gaze, muttered: "Have you run away?"
Then he moved his nose and sniffed the wind and sand that was whistling by his side, and said, "What son of God is just a coward with oil on his feet."
As soon as he finished speaking, he turned to the north and looked down at the strange rocks and valleys at the foot of the mountain in the wind and sand.
