The strong wind roared, rolling up more sand and flew into the house to gather and disperse with the wind.
Xunxiang's fear on her face became even heavier; obviously, it was all thanks to Xiao Shizhu's affirmative answer. The Baili swamp behind this pass brought a lot of psychological shadow to them, the ghosts of the underworld.
Xiao Shizhu didn't care and said slowly: "The world created by these ancient gods is so wonderful, just as an old saying in the world says - wherever poisonous snakes appear, there must be an antidote within seven steps. In fact, all things in the world
They are all mutually generated and restrained, and the same is true for the geographical environment."
"How do you say this?" Xunxiang's worry turned into curiosity. She, who had never been to the world, also stared at Xiao Shizhu and asked urgently.
"That is to say, you only see the danger of the swamp showing in front of you, and you will naturally feel scared and afraid." Xiao Shizhu smiled, sat on the ground and signaled to the national teacher Yingying, and first closed the door, and said, "But it is dangerous.
In the middle, there must be vitality to conform to the yin and yang path between heaven and earth, and to form mutual generation and mutual restraint. Just like in the south of Huangquan, looking around, most places cannot distinguish between the vast deserts of east, south, west and north, and wind and sand often rise everywhere.
As soon as the wind and sand come, it is full of sand and stones like rain, and clouds and mist. But there are also many places where wind and sand cannot invade. It has been on this deserted wilderness with no people for thousands of years. These places have remained unchanged for thousands of years.
, it has become the best shelter, hasn't it?"
He said it lightly, and outlined all the terrain in the southern part of Huangquan in an understatement.
The national teacher Yingying also closed the door, and the sound of wind and sand became much lower.
"Huh?" Xunxiang nodded thoughtfully, but a puzzled look quickly appeared on her face.
Xiao Shizhu smiled and hung on her face, and then said, "I believe there is vitality in the swamp. And I already know how to get out. When I was in the strange stone valley, I heard Ke Yun say the dead wood in the swamp.
When they are all petrified and as hard as iron, I know how to leave."
But he said half of it and left half of it. Xunxiang was a little confused. He didn't know what Xiao Shizhu said about the strange dead trees in these swamps.
Naturally, my face was confused.
Xiao Shizhu seemed unwilling to point it out completely, and then stopped talking, just laughed but didn't say anything. He let Xunxiang think about it himself, but after a while he picked up the kettle around his waist, leisurely.
I drank the cool water in the pot.
"Xunxiang, you will know soon how we will get through the swamp." The national teacher Yingying, who closed the door, came over, comforted Xunxiang, who was thinking hard and unable to ask for the door, and then faced Xiao Shizhu and asked: "Lord, Lord,"
, the pursuers followed closely. Should we set up traps before entering the swamp? It can also delay their marching speed."
Although the wind and sand will take away their smell, footprints, and other traces, the pursuers behind them are not far away from here, and even if there are no traces, they know their destination and will definitely chase them here.
National Master Yingying still thinks that leaving some clever traps can hinder the enemy.
"I've thought of it for a long time." Xiao Shizhu, who slowly covered the lid of the pot, smiled faintly, and cunning appeared from the corner of his raised mouth: "I have privately told Wutou, Nuba, and Shi Juanming, they will
After the defenses here have been solved, the enemy will inevitably suffer damage as long as they dare to chase them."
Since this is the case, the national teacher Yingying just nodded silently and stopped talking.
"Let me rest for a while and wake me up before leaving." Xiao Shizhu said as he stood up, and walked slowly to the corner of the wall with his bloody powder all over the ground calmly, leaning against the wall and slowly closing his eyes.
After a while, there was a snoring sound in the watchtower, one after another...
In the wilderness more than fifty miles south of the pass conquered by Xiao Shizhu, wind and sand were raging, and the sky and the earth were dark under the flying sand and rocks.
More than a dozen Huangquan cavalry gathered together to form a long dragon-like team, winding for several miles, advancing against the wind in the strong wind.
These more than ten armies were some of the pursuers sent by Queen Huangquan. They followed Xiao Shizhu all the way and chased him. First they gathered near the Qishi Valley and found the bodies of the army under Xiaoyue's command and the powder they turned into.
, and also found footprints and traces of Xiao Shizhu's departure from it, and followed them all the way.
On the road, these more than ten cavalry often encountered the deadly trap set by Xiao Shizhu's orders, which had slowed down their movement speed. Gradually, they also distanced themselves from Xiao Shizhu. Now,
When wind and sand are blowing, the army is struggling in the wilderness.
They were obviously all cavalrymen, but in the strong and powerful wind and sand, their marching speed was as good as that of infantry.
After a long time of difficulty in the deserted wilderness, the army suddenly detoured westward, looking for the scattered dead trees swaying in the strong wind, walked out a few miles and then arrived in front of a barren mountain in the wilderness.
On this barren mountain that stands in the wind and sand, there are vaguely visible city walls made of soil and houses made of stones, standing proudly among the mountains.
A large-scale and majestic city has been formed.
The strong wind blew across the mountain city, making a sad and sad sound; it was like a sharp sound or a strange scream, making people feel creepy.
When the army arrived at the foot of the mountain, they immediately followed the open city gates and rushed into the mountain city. After they rushed into the unguarded houses, watchtowers and stone tunnels in the mountains.
The wind and sand are getting stronger and stronger. Even if most soldiers in the army carry the wind bead, they can only carry one soldier, which cannot play a big role. They have to find a shelter nearby and move in to it.
Wait for the wind and sand to stop and continue chasing.
The leaders of more than ten cavalry generals gathered in the largest stone chamber in the city, gnawing on the lit bonfire and drinking the clear well water from the well water in the stone chamber in the city.
All the ghosts in this room are strange and none of them look normal. But they are all powerful players under the Queen of Yellow Springs.
Originally, they all shouldered the heavy responsibility of guarding the frontier and fortresses, but now the threat of the ghost soldiers of Fengdu no longer exists. The Queen of Huangquan transferred them without hesitation, just to ask Xiao Shizhu to die in Huangquan.
"This wind and sand are really not the time." One of the black-headed dog demons wearing nine feet long and black-clothed black crown and golden armor turned red with red eyes. They chewed hard for a few times and swallowed the dried meat in their mouths, and cursed indignantly: "
Otherwise, we would have caught up with Xiao Shizhu now."
"The weather in the south has been abnormal these days." As the bonfire swayed, several shadows shaking on the face of the human soul, wearing a red robe, black veil hat and long beard, shaking a few times, and the eyebrows were filled with eyebrows.
A look of worry appeared.
"After the wind and sand in the past, there were at least three or five days of space and a clear good weather, but these days there were continuous wind and sand. It was only a few hours or a day apart." The soul said thoughtfully and suddenly felt that
The bonfire in front of him made him feel hot all over, so he couldn't help but unbutton his belt and took off his red robe, revealing his hollow, transparent, crystal-like chest and abdomen.
This ghost put down the red robe like a flame, and then said worriedly: "It is said that Xiao Shizhu is the real son of God. This weather is not God's help to escape. It's so abnormal, right? If so, we'll be
I broke my legs, but I couldn't catch up with him."
As soon as he said that, as the words fell, the black-headed dog demon started yelling again: "Don't be nonsense; just say something that will strengthen others' ambitions and destroy your own might. If he were the son of God, could he escape so embarrassed?"
.
His selective blindness, ignoring the contemptuous words of Queen Huangquan, was immediately recognized by most of the ghosts in the house, and they nodded and echoed them all.
"When the wind and sand stop, I will chase after you and behead all the ghosts who created the traps." The black-headed dog demon became more and more proud as he said, as if he was sure to win. He didn't take Xiao Shizhu in his eyes and said with a smile on his face.
: "Then I tied up Xiao Shizhu and bleed, and finally threw the body into a wilderness and let him dry it into a mummy. I think he still dares to call himself the son of God with shameless words?"
As soon as this statement was spoken, it was naturally recognized by most of the ghosts in the room. They were all excited and threatened to tear Xiao Shizhu apart.
When dealing with the Eight Kings of Huangquan and the Ghost Soldiers of Fengdu, they had never seen them so confident and courageous. Only a few ghosts, including the male ghost who took off their red robe, remained silent and had a lot of worries.
Although they also hated Xiao Shizhu after listening to the orders of Queen Huangquan, they were calm and kept them rational. They knew that if Xiao Shizhu was really so easy to deal with, Xiaoyue and his army would not be wiped out.
They cannot be as arrogant as other ghost generals, and they are deeply trapped in their own fantasy of defeating Xiao Shizhu, and they cannot extricate themselves. They are still enjoying it.
There was no excitement on his face, only worry as if it was not present, and it appeared inadvertently.
"As soon as the wind and sand stop, we will divide our troops into two groups and follow the edges of the west side of the Baili Swamp and chase them all the way until we find Xiao Shizhu's whereabouts." After a long time, the black-headed dog demon took out the animal skin in his arms.
The map was expanded and scanned the lines and landscapes on the map, and then shouted excitedly: "Once we catch up, we will kill him and turn him over."
As the bonfire swayed, most of the ghosts responded, and their expressions of excitement increased instead of reducing.
The male ghost in red robe still frowned. After these ghosts were excited for a while and calmed down, they slowly spoke and said thoughtfully: "It is said that Xiao Shizhu, the son of God, has a strange mind and can always think about it.
It is really hard to see the ordinary people's thinking in him. Therefore, I guess that Xiao Shizhu must have to sneak into the Baili swamp when he escapes from this road, and will never follow the east and west sides.
The edge detours northward. We might as well go straight to the north of the swamp and set up an ambush to wait for the rabbit, but we could catch him off guard."
This was the result of his careful consideration. As for Xiao Shizhu, who knew about Xiao Shizhu, this ghost who could defeat Fengdu ghost soldiers and the Eight Kings of Huangquan in half a year often did not take the ordinary path. Perhaps the Baili swamp was fundamentally in Xiao Shizhu's eyes.
There is nothing to be afraid of.
The ghosts were stunned and the stone chamber fell into a dead silence.
I don't know how long it took until the firewood licked by flames in the bonfire broke a hole in the red, and at the same time it burst out with a crackling sound, breaking the tranquility, the ghost generals who had underestimated Xiao Shizhu laughed in unison
Get up.
The black-headed dog demon laughed the loudest, and after laughing happily, he looked at the male ghost who turned a blind eye to the ridicule and was silently putting on the red robe: "Brother, how could you guess that Xiao Shizhu would
What about passing through that death zone? Unless he has no brains, he will enter that dangerous place." (To be continued)
