Everyone here, including Xiao Shizhu, did not expect that in the near future, this exquisite city would become a weapons development and research center to promote the Ghost Mother Army. Countless skilled craftsmen were recruited by Xiao Shizhu.
Among them were many Mohists who surrendered; together with Lai Yueqi, they worked conscientiously on that desolate plain to create countless powerful war machines for Xiao Shizhu and his Xiao family army.
When Xiao Shizhu brought these war machines and swept across the underworld to conquer the north and south, the era of Emperor Fengdu came to an end.
"Yes, Yueqi will prepare tomorrow." Lai Yueqi stood up and came, then paused and asked: "Can I take away two prisoners from the dungeon?".
"Who is it?" Xiao Shizhu, who was picking his teeth, was stunned for a moment, then smiled with interest. Lai Yueqi rarely made requests, but why did she ask for the two prisoners? This made him curious.
"One is named Long Guyun and the other is named Mu Xian'er. These two souls are both Mohists. The result of Lord Chunyun's interrogation is that they are both machine craftsmen in the Mohists." Lai Yueqi lowered her head slightly,
He suggested softly: "And their hands have slender fingers, and there are calluses on the knuckles in the palms. They are indeed craftsmen. If they can be used for us, there will be no harm." He glanced at it.
Taking a look at his own hands, there are calluses on the knuckles in the palms.
When he was in the human world, Xiao Shizhu had heard that the Mo family had many superb mechanism techniques, such as the mechanism kite that could fly for three days without setting, the large crossbow that could fire sixty arrows at the same time, the small crossbow with countless arrows, and the continuous crossbow cart.
The exterior is covered with iron, part of it is buried underground, and it is an ancient tank that can project charcoal fire, etc.
Although many people think that these things of the Mohist family are nothing more than their own imagination, Xiao Shizhu always believes that this is not a fiction.
If these two souls are really machine craftsmen, then instead of locking them in a dungeon to collect soap and wait to die, it is better to release them and make some contributions to the motherland of ghosts.
Thinking of this, Xiao Shizhu had made up his mind and hurriedly said to Hu Hui: "You and Lai Yueqi go to instigate them to rebel. After ensuring that they will not rebel, let Lai Yueqi take them to Linglong City."
"Yes." Hu Hui responded quickly.
"The third plan I want to talk about is also related to the Mohists; we have been secretly arresting the dormant Mohists, but there are so many of them, we can't kill them all." Xiao Shizhu looked attentive.
He nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "As long as they are willing to abandon the darkness and turn to the light, we should give them a chance to change their ways. The Mohists are not all trash, and they are all human souls at the bottom of the underworld; they join the Mohists because they are
They have the ambition to change the world. The original intention was good, but it was a pity that they were led bad by Mo Zhai. If they can correct their evil ways, they will be a powerful force. So we have to find a way to integrate them."
.
"General, do you have any good suggestions?" When Hu Hui spoke to him, he had a confident look in his eyes from beginning to end, and it was expected that he must have already thought of a solution.
"I want to play tricks on Mo Zhai, combine these reformed Mohists, and give them a name called Xuanjiao disciples. Xuan Naihei, in addition to reminding them that they are reformed Mohists, also means that they are
In the secret, assist a group of human souls from the Ghost Mother Country. Of course, the biggest fun of this game is that I will use them to deal with Mo Zhai." Xiao Shizhu showed a sly smile, stared at Hu Hui, and said: "
Hierarch, of course you are the one to do it."
"Xuanjiao, Xuan also means vast supernatural powers, and it has a good meaning." Hu Hui nodded frequently after hearing this, and then waved his hands: "But the position of leader is up to you, general; I don't have as much prestige as you.
I will help you instigate rebellion against the Mohists, and I will assist you as a Dharma protector or something, what do you think?"
"Haha, just do what you said." The shameless Xiao Shizhu was not polite to him and agreed immediately; after all, he wanted Hu Hui to be the leader of the cult, he just wanted him to instigate rebellion against the Mohists.
.Since the other party offered to help him instigate rebellion against those Mohists and did not want to be the leader, he naturally accepted the position of leader.
"This matter has been decided happily. Now let's talk about another thing." Xiao Shizhu's eyes moved from Hu Hui's face to King Kong's face, and said slowly: "King Kong performed well pretending to be a special envoy this time, so
I hope that you will take 300 imperial troops and go to the Xiutou Kingdom again the day after tomorrow. If they are still under siege, help them clean up the Communist Army, but you cannot face the enemy directly and avoid mainly harassing them. If the siege has been lifted,
, just like Danzhu asking for 'wage'. I heard that this old boy often goes against his promise, but he sent me 30,000 Hutou people. You go and remind him that it is natural to pay back debts; tell him not to follow
I'm being a rogue."
"Yes." King Kong did not refute, but quickly stood up and responded with his hands raised.
"The last thing is about Ying'er. In the past few days, your sister-in-law should have gathered all the Xiao family's family members and arranged for them to live under Xiaoyushan City." Xiao Shizhu turned around and saw the ghost mother nodding in response.
Finally, he looked at Ying'er who was a little confused and said with a smile: "These families will be under your control from now on. We will have more and more places where we need money in the future. Fortunately, we have already done business with Zhu Rongguo, and that place is very dry."
Very well, the cream will definitely sell well, and so will the beer. You can take these family members to cook a lot of cream and brew beer. Your sister-in-law has also allocated a hundred women's forbidden troops from the inner court for you to dispatch. I have only one request, everyone.
The craftsmanship is carried out separately, so be sure not to reveal the secret recipe; does shopkeeper Ying'er agree?"
"Me?" Ying'er's eyes widened and she looked at him with an incredulous look. She raised her finger and pointed at her chest and asked in surprise: "Can I do it?".
"Okay, this way you can still have some time to take care of the children." Xiao Shizhu shook his head and said in a positive tone: "You are the best candidate; as for the wages of the family members, they will be paid at twice the market price.
”.
"Do as big brother says and do it well." Yingzhao's words instantly dispelled Ying'er's doubts and lack of confidence. Then Ying'er nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, I will do it well."
"Okay, the tasks have been assigned. Everyone should perform their duties and do their best." Xiao Shizhu clapped his hands, looked around the ghosts, and said in a sonorous and powerful tone: "As long as we work together, the ghost motherland can only
It will get better and better.”.
"General, can I say a few words?" The ghosts nodded frequently. After thinking for a moment, Hu Hui slowly asked: "You ask Danzhu if he wants to protect the people, but to strengthen the Yuren Air Force?".
"Haha." Xiao Shizhu pointed back with his hand, winked and said with a smile: "Your eyes are very poisonous, have you noticed this?" He said it bluntly and had no intention of hiding it.
"Then we should be able to start forming the empty cavalry." Hu Hui thought seriously.
"Hongqi?" Xiao Shizhu was stunned and asked, "What is that?".
"To put it simply, they are cavalry that can fly in the air." Hu Hui coughed, cleared his throat, and continued: "Countries in Dongyi Continent have such cavalry. They ride cavalry that can fly or
The beast soul of Teng Yun used bows and crossbows in the air to attack the enemy troops on the ground. Even the Fengdu Army of Emperor Fengdu also had an air cavalry; it was just that they were not equipped with firearms. But the beasts riding in the air were not as good as those on the ground.
It is so easy to control, so it is very difficult and time-consuming to train an aerial rider. Moreover, good aerial riders are hard to find."
"I once suggested that Guilu build an army of air cavalry, but he didn't listen." Hu Hui added while scratching his head with his hand and laughing in embarrassment, "Otherwise during the Battle of Black Dragon Island, the Ghost King would
When the army faces the general's air force, it will not suffer frequent losses."
"Honey, this is a good idea!" Xiao Shizhu turned to look at the ghost mother and thought thoughtfully. But when he saw the ghost mother smiled sweetly and nodded to him, she turned back and looked at Hu Hui and asked.
To: "Where can I find the Kongqi rider and Teng Yun's beast soul?".
"I don't know about the rider, but it's too easy to find Teng Yun's beast soul." Hu Hui smiled softly and said: "Isn't there a beast soul market at Songtao Port to the east of Shuoyue Island? I think it's there.
It shouldn’t be difficult to find a Teng Yun beast soul inside.”
"I can help you train the rider." Then Yingzhao took the words, proudly puffed up his chest, and shouted excitedly: "I once commanded the air cavalry guards of the ancient gods."
"Yes, how could I forget this?" The ghost mother also slapped herself on the forehead and said: "Yingzhao used to be an air cavalry captain."
"That's good, Yingzhao, you have a mission." Xiao Shizhu's eyes lit up, watching Yingzhao speak word by word: "During this period, you can select and train you from the four city guards and the Forbidden Army.
A soldier who thinks he can become an air rider."
"Hu Hui, Guilu." After Yingzhao responded, Xiao Shizhu immediately said with great interest: "Tomorrow the three of us will go to the Beast Soul Market."
The morning light shone on Xiao Shizhu's face with his eyes closed, causing him to groan and subconsciously turn over to avoid the sun. Then, the ghost mother's mellow and sweet voice sounded in his ears: "Wake up, big brother
Sloth."
"Yeah." Xiao Shizhu responded impatiently, pulled the quilt, and snored again.
The ghost mother knew that Xiao Shizhu was very angry when he got up, so she continued to coax him: "If you don't get up, I'm going to eat all the skewers." As soon as he heard the word skewers, Xiao Shizhu suddenly opened his eyes.
He looked around and kept asking: "Where? Where?".
"Hehe, here." The ghost mother looked at him with charming eyes, reached out to tuck a piece of hair behind her ears, lowered her head and kissed him; she was very charming.
After a while, the ghost mother raised her head again, smiled at him, got up and got out of bed.
She clapped her hands, and Gui Qian'er and Chen Ruo walked in carrying a copper basin filled with warm water, towels, toothbrushes and other toiletries, and stood in front of the bed.
The ghost mother took the towel, soaked it in a basin with warm water, rubbed it a few times, took it out, twisted it dry, folded it up again, then turned around and sat on the edge of the bed, holding Xiao Shizhu's back with her hands.
After he helped him up, he gently wiped his face with a towel.
Then he handed the towel to Chen Ruo, took the toothbrush stained with tooth powder, and handed it to Xiao Shizhu.
"Can I change it to another one?" Xiao Shizhu, who was still a little sleepy, took the toothbrush and looked at the ponytail hair on it and said, "Isn't there a plastic toothbrush?".
"It will happen in the future, don't be picky now." In the voice of the ghost mother, she reluctantly put the toothbrush into her mouth.
Half an hour later, after having breakfast, he yawned and put on a coarse trousers, said goodbye to his ghost mother, and left the palace.
When he arrived at the palace gate, Gui Lu and Hu Hui were waiting there with his Yueying and two horses.
"Have you eaten?" Xiao Shizhu asked cheerfully after taking over the reins, turning over and climbing up to Yaizhu.
"Eat." After Hu Hui and Gui Lu replied in unison, they got on their horses and followed Xiao Shizhu to the foot of Xiaoyu Mountain City.
The three of them rode their mounts and galloped eastward on the road. Three hours later, they arrived outside Songtao Port, but it was already past noon.
The hungry Xiao Shizhu invited Hu Hui and Gui Lu to eat and drink at a roadside stall before letting Hu Hui lead the way towards the beast soul market surrounded by pine trees by the port.
Slowly entering the market, I saw many simple sheds erected on both sides of the narrow streets, with various cages inside. Many animal souls were locked in the cages. In addition to the various kinds of animals that can be seen in the human world,
In addition to kittens, puppies of different breeds, and a variety of birds, there is also a goat-like creature with a red hyena, a wild duck-like creature with a mouse tail, and a wolf-like creature.
, the red-headed rat-eyed beast that can only be seen in myths, such as the sniper with its teeth and claws.
Xiao Shizhu looked at it as he walked, and he was dazzled by what he saw. This place was simply a zoo of ten thousand beasts. Compared with this small animal soul market, the human zoo was simply weak!
