Pucheng, silent in the middle of the night.
Xie Xingzhou and the swordsman returned to the City Lord's Mansion with Min Hongyi's body.
Gu Jiao's silver spear pierced Min Hongyi's heart directly, and Min Hongyi was killed on the spot.
The swordsman pulled out the silver spear on him, and only brought out his body.
His body was covered with a white cloth and carried into the flower hall of the City Lord's Mansion.
A man dressed in silver brocade stepped inside. He was about thirty years old. He had a stern face, thick eyebrows and high peaks. When he was not angry, he also gave people an unapproachable sternness.
His appearance is rather handsome, which occasionally weakens that fierceness.
But if you underestimate him because of this, it will be his own death soon.
This is the most warlike man in Jin.
Min Hong was nothing compared to him.
It's just that ordinary masters can't get into his eyes, and tough generals like Xuanyuan Li and Xuanyuan Sheng are the ones he wants to challenge in the end.
"Lord!"
When Xie Xingzhou saw the person coming, he hurriedly turned around and bowed respectfully.
Gongsun Yu brought his own aura, strode to the corpse covered by the white cloth, and raised his hand to signal.
Xie Xingzhou knelt down on one knee and lifted the white cloth over the corpse's head, revealing Min Hongyi's blood-stained face.
Gongsun Yu's expression did not change at all.
Xie Xingzhou pulled the white cloth down to his ankle, and Min Hongyi's injuries were all exposed.
"The fatal wound was the shot in the chest. In addition, he had a poisonous hidden weapon in his abdomen, and his thigh was stabbed by the head of the gun and twisted..."
Those who are just broken skins and small wounds and boats are not counted one by one, but these are shocking enough.
Min Hongyi was a master of the Jin state and the number one swordsman under Gongsun Yu. He was so powerful that even Xie Xingzhou could not guarantee that he would be able to hurt him like this.
"Well." Gongsun Yu raised his finger.
Two guards stepped forward, covered the white cloth again, and walked out with the body and the stretcher.
Gongsun Yu came to the main seat, lifted his cloak and sat down, and asked with cold eyes, "What the hell is going on?"
Only Gongsun Yu, Xie Xingzhou and the surviving swordsman were left in the flower hall.
The swordsman was the first witness, so he should be the one to reply, but Xie Xingzhou was negligent on this trip, so he stepped forward and confessed: "Qi lord, it is the subordinate's unfavorable work! The subordinate should not stay in the ghost mountain. The outside and Min Hong should cooperate with each other, if the subordinates lead the troops to march with him, maybe such a tragedy will not happen."
Gongsun Yu is not a person who cares about passing, he cares more about results.
The result was that once Min Hong died, no matter how much he tried to find out about Xingzhou's negligence, he would not be able to recover the loss.
Xie Xingzhou is also useful.
Then he wouldn't dismiss the boat.
"How many are you back?" he asked coldly.
Xie Xingzhou bit the bullet and said, "One."
Min Hongyi.
And there was only one icy corpse.
His five hundred men were wiped out in the woods, not even a hair was brought out.
"Ghost Mountain..." Gongsun Yu clenched his fists and closed his eyes, "My old general of the Jin Dynasty died in Ghost Mountain!"
The old god of Da Jin was Gongsun Yu's grandfather. He was brave and good at fighting for most of his life, but died in Guishan in a battle more than 30 years ago.
- Not even the body was recovered!
The person who killed his grandfather was the Shadow Lord of Yan Kingdom!
—The one who founded the National Master Hall and Xuanyuan Army!
It took more than ten years for the Dajin royal family and the Gongsun family to finally kill the henchmen of the Lord of Shadows one by one!
As for the forces created by the Lord of Shadows, the Xuanyuan Army has been destroyed, and now only the National Master Hall remains.
When he leads the army to invade Shengdu, he will personally... set the National Teacher Hall on fire!
Gongsun Yu looked at the swordsman in front of him indifferently: "Elder Lu, this general asked you to save people, but you only brought back a corpse. Did you lose your loyalty to the imperial court, or did you lose your former strength? "
The swordsman who was called Elder Lu said neither humble nor arrogant: "Although I don't want to admit the two points that the general said, but the general insists on thinking so, I have nothing to say. This time to attack the country of Yan, our sword cottage. It also suffered heavy losses. Elder He and two inner disciples died in Quyang, and Elder Fang died in Guishan trying to save Min Hongyi. I couldn’t even bring back Elder Fang’s body.”
Gongsun Yu said unceremoniously: "It seems that the sword cottage without Heaven Slaughter and Dark Soul is really going from bad to worse."
Elder Lu smiled lightly, and said sarcastically: "Everything is going to get worse. It is the country of Yan who has produced a few very powerful masters. We underestimated the strength of the other party and did not send more powerful swordsmen. Speaking of this, I would like to ask General Gongsun, why is the enemy's intelligence unclear? If I had said that they had such a master, I would have made another arrangement!"
Gongsun Yu clenched his fists: "Masters? Humph, they're just a bunch of pirates!"
He didn't like Elder Lu's yin and yang weirdness, but the status of Jianlu in Jin State was very unusual - the little sister of the master of Jianlu was the imperial concubine of Da Jin.
Besides, he also has a place to use Elder Lu.
Gongsun Yu looked at Xie Xingzhou: "How many remnants are there in the forest?"
Xie Xingzhou thought, what are you looking at me for? I didn't go into the woods again.
He smoothly cast a look of help at Elder Lu.
Elder Lu said indifferently: "No more than five hundred, this is the maximum estimate, it should be only more than three hundred troops."
Gongsun Yu slapped the armrest with a slap: "More than 300 troops dare to pretend to be ghosts in Ghost Mountain!"
It's a shame!
Shame on the entire Jin army!
The dignified Jin general led 500 elite soldiers, but he was actually defeated by 300 stragglers who fell into trouble!
"Xingzhou!" Gongsun Yu clenched the handrail with cold eyes.
"My subordinates are here!" Xie Xingzhou clasped his fists.
Gongsun Yu said: "Tomorrow morning, you will bring me 20,000 troops and step on the ghost mountain!"
Xie Xingzhou was stunned.
Dispatching 20,000 people... against 300 people, this is a bull's knife to kill a chicken.
But on second thought, he can understand the decision of the general.
The old god will die in the ghost mountain, which greatly damaged the vitality of the Jin army, and dared not go to war with the state of Yan for more than ten years.
Ghost Mountain is a place full of hatred for the general, and he can't wait to raze Ghost Mountain to the ground.
He is venting his anger!
Use the grass and trees of the ghost mountain, the creatures of the ghost mountain, the troops of the ghost mountain... to pay homage to the dead soul of the old general!
Gongsun Yu's tone was calm, but what he said made people shudder: "Kill this general a little, and don't leave a rabbit behind."
Xie Xingzhou knelt down on one knee and put a fist on the ground: "This subordinate leads the order!"
…
Quyang.
Shangguan Yan waited all day in the barracks and did not see Gu Jiao coming back. She paced back and forth in Gu Jiao's tent.
Huan'er sat aside, propped her head with one hand, and a chicken pecking at the rice knocked it onto the table.
She hurriedly stood up: "Slave, slave maid is wrong..."
"Go to the door and take a look." Shangguan Yan said.
"Yes!" Huan'er lifted the curtain and went to the gate of the barracks, and looked carefully on the official road for a long time, but there was no figure in sight.
She returned to the camp to return to her life: "Master Xiao did not come back."
"Have you not returned? It's been a day and a night." Shangguan Yan covered her heart, "I don't know what's going on, I'm always a little uneasy here."
Huan'er said with relief: "Master Xiao is so clever, he will be fine!"
"Master Xiao!"
Suddenly, Master Hu's greeting came from outside the tent.
Jiaojiao is back!
Without waiting for Huan'er to play the curtain, Shangguan Yan walked over and opened the curtain, only to see Xuanping Marquis with a twitchy face.
Xuanping Hou is passing by.
Everyone in the camp knew that he was Commander Xiao's biological father, so they respectfully addressed him as Lord Xiao.
Shangguan Yan's face darkened: "Why is it you again?"
Marquis Xuanping: "I'm passing by, so can I blame me?"
Shangguan Yan ignored him.
She is not a rambunctious person, nor will she be mean to a man.
Marquis Xuanping said with a half-smile, "What? Do you miss Ben's son?"
Is Jiaojiao your son
Shangguan Yan glared at him, turned around and entered Gu Jiao's tent.
The Marquis of Xuan Ping reluctantly touched the bridge of his nose.
Women are so hard to understand.
He shook his head and returned to his tent.
As he walked, he muttered, "Where did the surnamed Tang abduct Ben Hou's son? Why hasn't he come back?"
There was no fun in the barracks, and he was going to attack the Liang army tomorrow morning. To recharge his batteries, the Marquis of Xuanping stopped early.
When he slept until midnight, he had a dazed dream.
He dreamed of a thin young man with a face that was remarkably similar to A-Heng, but it was not A-Heng's face.
He suddenly appeared in front of him and stretched out his hand towards him.
Somehow, he recognized that it was his and Qin Fengwan's son.
He was overjoyed and walked towards the other party quickly: "Son!"
But just as he was about to reach out and touch the opponent, a long sword suddenly sprang out from the darkness, piercing his son's chest with a sword from behind.
rumbling—
The sky exploded with thunder!
Xuanping Hou's body was shaken, and he woke up from a nightmare.
His clothes were sticky, and he was obviously shocked by a cold sweat.
How did he have this dream
Before I saw my son, my son was given to—
piss off!
His son is fine.
After he finished the battle, he took Xiao Qing back to see his mother.
He has never seen Qin Fengwan look so surprised and gaffe in his life, and I believe he will see it soon.
This son must be very good.
…
Ghost Mountain.
It was late at night, and all the villagers and ghost soldiers who had been busy all day returned to their houses, and the lively small village fell into silence.
The city of Quyang was struck by thunder and rain, but Pucheng had a good night.
Gu Jiao lay in the small thatched hut arranged for her by Shangguan Qing, looking up at the starry sky from the window: "Tomorrow will be another day with high autumn air."
Tang Yueshan was lying in another room of the small thatched hut, snoring like thunder.
The King of the Black Wind did not lie down to rest, and he led another black wind rider to quietly guard outside the small thatched hut, closing his eyes for a nap.
Gu Jiao listened to the wind blowing from the mountains, admired the boundless moonlight, and felt peace in her heart.
"Boss, we'll go back tomorrow." She said to the Batu King outside the window.
The Black Wind King responded to her with a whimper.
Then it whirled again, signaling that Gu Jiao should go to bed.
Seeing that Gu Jiao was still opening a pair of big eyes, she simply stuck her head into the window, blocking the moonlight and night.
Gu Jiao: "..."
Okay.
I just sleep.
Gu Jiao turned over, and under the protection of the Black Wind King, she closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"grown ups… "
"grown ups… "
"grown ups… "
Gu Jiao heard a voice that seemed to be absent in her dream.
Who is calling her
Gu Jiao slept unsteadily, turned over, fell off the bed, and hit the floor with a thud!
"Who is who!"
Tang Yueshan next door was so startled that he sat up and didn't feel the danger, and fell asleep with his big bow in his arms.
Gu Jiao fell hard this time.
She had another dream just now, and someone was calling her in the dream, and there were more than one.
Some call her lord, some call her...
She couldn't hear the other call, and she fell awake.
The Black Wind King stuck his head in.
"I'm fine." Gu Jiao stood up with the big bag on her head.
With such a fall, her drowsiness was completely dropped.
In the first half of the night, the moon was bright and the stars were bright, and in the second half of the night, it was shrouded in dark clouds.
"It looks like it's going to rain."
The room was very stuffy, Gu Jiao came out to get some air.
She stood beside the Black Wind King, standing side by side with him, admiring the mountains stained with ink by the night.
Suddenly, her little head unconsciously looked to the east.
The Lord of the Black Wind happened to be standing on the east side, and it pushed her head against it with its own.
Do not hope.
Gu Jiao looked again.
The Black Wind King approached again.
Gu Jiao jumped up and lay on its horse's back, staring at it.
She blinked: "Boss, let's go to the back mountain to turn around?"
The Black Wind King, who couldn't watch his bear child, snorted helplessly.
Heifeng Wang carried Gu Jiao towards the back mountain.
A formation was set up in the forest, and the ghost soldiers were on duty there, and there were no ghost soldiers patrolling in the village.
The King of the Black Wind walked very lightly and did not wake up any of the villagers.
In order to prevent the villagers from entering the back mountain by mistake, Shangguan Qing ordered people to build a row of fences as high as one person.
The Black Wind King jumped over easily.
Gu Jiao patted its mane and said with a high air, "Boss, you are awesome."
Batu King: Don't be flattering.
Heifeng Wang and Gu Jiao came to the foot of the mountain, Gu Jiao dismounted, looked at the dark mountain, and muttered, "The back mountain is so big, where is that ghost king? Forget it, go first."
One by one, they climbed the hillside and walked into a dense forest.
Few people set foot on this forest, which is much more lush than the vegetation in the front mountain.
A poisonous snake snaked down from the branch and spit out a dangerous snake letter at Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao raised her hand and grabbed it.
Viper: "...!!"
Gu Jiao was not interested in this little poisonous snake and threw it away.
One by one, they walked forward for a while.
Gu Jiao thought it would not be so easy, but as soon as she came out of the woods, she saw a cemetery.
And at the top of the cemetery, there was a general holding a long sword, wearing armor, motionless... as if it had been petrified in place.
The three-foot green peak in his hand shone with cold light, and it seemed to weigh thousands of pounds.
At this moment, Gu Jiao finally understood what Shangguan Qing meant.
Shangguan Qing did not describe it wrong.
This man is really... "dead".
There was no trace of a living person on him, and he believed from the bottom of his heart that he was dead.
He only had a broken body left in the world, like a walking corpse without a soul.
The moon pierced through the thick dark clouds and climbed up into the night sky, casting a cool light on the grave and on him.
click!
His neck suddenly turned, and he looked in Gu Jiao's direction slowly and sluggishly.
Rub your hands, little cuties, do you still have a monthly pass
