【822】Stone Valley
"Those of you who are carrying the Wind-fixing Pearls should scatter behind the walls in the mountains. Three ghosts form a group. Don't be too spread out. They can use each other's horns to protect each other."
Ke Yun covered her mouth and nose with a piece of cloth to avoid being exposed to the wind and sand, and gathered a group of powerful ghost soldiers who were good at fighting. She told them to bring the wind-fixing beads and immediately went to sheltered places and important places to stand guard in the wind and sand.
After following Xiao Shizhu in the war for a long time, she also learned to think a few more steps. Thinking of Queen of the Underworld's various actions today, which were all determined to kill Xiao Shizhu in every possible way, Ke Yun felt that the Queen of the Underworld would also take risks and send troops to chase her into the wind and sand.
Kill them.
It would be better to send out more sentries.
"Lieutenant general, mobilize a few groups of ghost soldiers who are good at close combat to defend behind the wall at the foot of the mountain." Immediately afterwards, Ke Yun ordered the deputy general beside him: "Let the five heads rest first and recuperate.
As soon as the wind and sand calm down, we will leave here immediately. Then the five of them will have to worry a lot."
The lieutenant general nodded in agreement, turned around and left.
And Ke Yun stood in the wind and sand, looking down the mountain in the direction of the road. From the time she believed in Xiao Shizhu, there was no turning back; now, she and her soldiers could only follow Xiao Shizhu and the others.
After a long time, Ke Yun, who had no regrets, withdrew her gaze, turned to look at the stone room where Xiao Shizhu and the others were, and worriedly said to herself: "I wonder how the Son of God is doing now?".
In the stone room, Imperial Master Yingying stopped her tears and gave Xiao Shizhu another wet towel. Coupled with the effect of the Bone Moisturizing Pill, Xiao Shizhu's fever subsided a lot, and his cheeks were far less hot than before. Even his lips were
The purpleness has also improved, and some blood color has returned to the face. However, he is still drowsy and frowning, with a look of discomfort and pain on his face, which is worrying and heart-wrenching.
Imperial Master Yingying patiently used a small wooden spoon to put the water in little by little from Xiao Shizhu's slightly opened lips, so that Xiao Shizhu could also moisturize his throat.
Qinyuan and the other ghosts all stared at Xunxiang and asked in unison: "What do you mean?".
They were like people who fell into the water and saw a life-saving straw. Their eyes looking at Xunxiang were full of expectation and nervousness.
"If the master's ghost life is sucked away, there is really nothing that can be done. But now, although his ghost life is not much left, it is not nothing. There is still a way." Although there was a touch of worry in Xunxiang's eyes,
But he said calmly: "There will be a way to restore his lost ghost life when he returns to the underworld."
She was worried not only about Xiao Shizhu, but also about whether they could escape from the underworld.
The Queen of Huangquan has the final say in most places in Huangquan today. They are surrounded by the ghost soldiers of Huangquan, and they are in danger.
"There is a blood pool in the underworld. Under the pungent blood and deep red blood, there is a powerful life force and endless primitive energy. It is said that the ancient gods were born from it, and the ancient gods first formed
Everything in the underworld depends on
The power of the blood pool will do the trick." After a pause, Xunxiang continued to speak to the others: "Furthermore, deep in the Six Heavens Palace of Gods and Ghosts, there is also a stone tablet carved by the ancient gods himself. It contains the records of the blood pool. I
What I just said is also what is seen on that stone tablet.”
"It's just..." At this point, Xunxiang suddenly stopped and then stopped talking.
His eyes widened, he stared at her, and asked urgently: "Just what?".
"It's just that at the end of the stone tablet, there is a warning from the ancient god, saying that although the blood pool contains a lot of power, ghosts in future generations must be careful and consider it carefully if they want to enter it and absorb the power." Seeing that they were all eager.
Wanting to know, Xunxiang no longer hesitated to speak, but still said with some hesitation: "Because the power of the blood pool is too strong, once it enters
The risk of absorbing power is also proportional to the power. If you are not careful, you will be torn to pieces by the powerful force and will never be reincarnated. At that time, Emperor Fengdu wanted to absorb power from it, but he did not dare to do it because he was worried about the danger recorded on the stone tablet.
Enter the blood pool to absorb strength. But only the power of the blood pool can not only cure the lord, but also make him reborn and gain a new life."
"Isn't it very risky? This can be considered a way?" After Shi Jueming was stunned for a long time, he was the first to jump up from the ground and said loudly: "Even the Emperor Fengdu dare not touch things easily, how can my adoptive father
Can we take risks because of this?".
Xunxiang remained silent and lowered his head slightly: "It is indeed risky, but this is the only way I can think of."
"I think you just want to kill my foster father, you Fengdu dog, you have bad intentions." Xiao Shizhu's unconsciousness and the sneak attack by Queen Huangquan made Shi Jueming lack of reason, and now his anger completely exploded.
With one quick step, he rushed to Xunxiang, leaned down and grabbed her collar and lifted her up from the ground.
The eyes of Shi Jueming and Xunxiang facing each other almost wanted to spit out fire. They gritted their teeth and said: "After all, it's all you Fengdu who made this happen. Your adoptive father has already had three good things and two bad things, and you have to do it too.
This is responsible."
After all, Shi Jueming's last bit of sanity had been completely swallowed up by anger.
He grabbed Xunxiang's collar with one hand, reached his right hand to his waist and grasped the handle of the short knife across his waist, and pulled it suddenly, and a cold light flashed behind him.
"Stop, Shi Jueming." Just when the sharp tip of the short knife in Shi Jueming's hand was pointing at Xunxiang's chest, Xiao Shizhu who was on the ground suddenly said: "Xunxiang did something damnable, you want to
Use a knife on her?".
Shi Jueming was suddenly startled, and slowly turned his head to look at Xiao Shizhu, and saw Xiao Shizhu who had half-opened his eyes. Shi Jueming loosened his hand, put down Xunxiang, raised his hand and wiped the corners of his eyes: "Yi
Father, please wake up."
Tears of joy soon soaked his sleeves.
"I woke up when Xunxiang said about the blood pool; the disaster I suffered today was not due to Xunxiang, and she had reminded me to pay attention to the Queen of the Underworld. It was my own carelessness and credulous belief in the Queen of the Underworld that caused today's situation.
, Shi Jueming, why do you need to find trouble with her just to vent your anger?" In front of the national teacher Yingying
With the support, Xiao Shizhu slowly sat up and said feebly: "Now we are surrounded by dangers. It is the critical moment when we must gather the strength of everyone to break out of the siege and return to the underworld. You must still recognize me as your foster father.
, just don’t do anything that is not conducive to unity.”
The ghosts secretly breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that he really woke up after taking a rest.
"Yes." Shi Jueming, with red eyes, lowered his head, choked and returned.
"Sorry, the child is too excited, please forgive me." Then Xiao Shizhu turned to look at Xunxiang, sincerely and slowly bowed his head and bent down, accompanying Shi Jueming.
Xunxiang smiled and said, "I don't care."
There was little joy in that smile, but you could still see the worry in her eyes.
"Who can help me get a map, a map to the south of Huangquan?" After a moment, Xiao Shizhu, who straightened up and raised his head, looked around the crowd and said, "Let's figure out how to escape."...
In the Holy Land of Huangquan, a large number of ghost soldiers are already gathering, and the noise in the valley continues to be lively. There is a ghostly aura rising everywhere.
The sky above the valley changed drastically, becoming dark and gloomy.
Xiao Shizhu fought his way out from here, dashing into the sand and disappearing without a trace. Although the local defenders were surprised for a long time, they were soon replaced by anger.
As Xiao Shizhu fought his way out, he was forced to kill thousands of ghost soldiers and excited ghost people in the valley, and several ghost generals also lost their lives.
Coupled with the Queen of Huangquan and her loyal followers, she immediately fanned the flames and described Xiao Shizhu as a lunatic who would turn against him if he could not borrow troops. This angered all the ghost soldiers and ghosts in the valley.
The ghost people and soldiers who were still grateful to Xiao Shizhu at the beginning are now eager to find Xiao Shizhu and carry out a hearty and bloody revenge.
Queen Huang Quan, who had recovered well, became even more anxious when she saw that the ghost life of Xiao Shizhu absorbed in the iron pestle was still ineffective. She returned to her small building and kept running back and forth in circles.
After a moment, Queen Huang Quan was sweating profusely.
"Queen." Just when her inner anxiety was about to reach its limit, a burly beast soul walked in from the door and stood in the middle of the small building. It was a white-haired wolf standing upright, with what was looking over its shoulder.
They were two huge wolf heads, with bared teeth and slightly fishy saliva flowing out of their mouths.
Like other ghost generals, he was covered in fit-fitting shining armor, and carried two iron-black long knives on his back, which were quietly stored in scabbards made of elephant skin.
"Xiaoyue, immediately mobilize your ghost soldiers and prepare to pursue the son of God and the traitor Ke Yun, Wutou." Queen Huangquan stopped running quickly, facing the two-headed wolf soul that could speak human words, she laid out the plan she had already thought of.
, said it without hesitation: "The Desert Wolf Cavalry under your command is our fastest cavalry in Huangquan. It is perfect to chase and encircle Xiao Shizhu."
Queen Huang Quan can't look back now; she can't just let it go and tell the people that she attacked first and then framed Xiao Shizhu, so that the people can forgive her, right?
Only when Xiao Shizhu dies can everything be settled. Queen Huangquan cannot let Xiao Shizhu go no matter what.
Moreover, she recognized the sword on Xiao Shizhu's waist as the artifact Mie Yue. By killing Xiao Shizhu and taking the Sword of Mie Yue, she could gradually block the passage from Huangquan to the underworld and eliminate all future worries.
"Yes." The two-wolf-headed Xiaoyue responded without thinking. It wasn't until the words fell that she added: "I don't know where they are now. When the wind and sand stop, their breath will be blown away, and their footprints will also be blown away."
It’s gone, how can I find it?”
As a loyal follower of Queen Huang Quan, Xiao Yue will not think about problems like Ke Yun. In his opinion, the mess inside and outside the small building and the tired look on Queen Huang Quan's face are the best reasons for Xiao Shizhu to fight and turn against each other.
Evidence, solid facts.
He is already eager to try. As long as he can find Xiao Shizhu, he will be fearless and pounce on Xiao Shizhu immediately.
"I have already sent scouts to follow. They are currently taking shelter in Black Thunder Mountain. If the wind and sand are a little weaker, you can lead your army straight to this place." Queen Huangquan took out a rolled-up leather map from her sleeve and walked to Xiaoyue.
Spread out in front of him: "Xiao Shizhu wants to escape back to the underworld, so he must go through the strange stone valley in the north of this place to reach the passage."
"All the cavalry in the valley are at your disposal. Bring the Wind-fixing Pearls and fight out to catch up with Xiao Shizhu." After Queen Huangquan said this, her eyes were filled with cold murderous intent. She drew a few outlines on it with a red pen.
A map with dotted circles was handed to Xiao Yue, and he said: "We must wipe them all out and leave no one alive.".
"Yes, I promise not to leave anyone alive." An even more excited Xiaoyue rolled up the map, quickly put it into her arms, and couldn't wait to reach out and take the troop deployment token handed over by Queen Huangquan. (To be completed.
