"And then?" Mu Xiuning squinted his ears and opened his eyes, and asked a new question, "Are you really planning to pick one out of the remaining sixteen princes of the Western Shang Dynasty, and create another obedient one?" Is he a sensible King of Western Merchants?"

"King of the Western Merchants?" Mu Da Guoshi turned around in response, glanced at his elder brother with trembling brows, with a chilly smile on his face, "Why did I bother to make that kind of thing?"

"People who claim to be kings may still be willing to submit because of their own lack of ability in the early days, but when they have tasted the taste of 'power' and their wings have grown, they will definitely turn to hate the one who helped him reach the top." Crutches', loathing the imprisonment that prevented him from climbing further."

"Once the so-called 'New King of Western Merchants' decides to turn against him, a new fire will be ignited on the northwest border. In addition, he is very likely to be familiar with our army's habits and combat methods, and the situation will obviously become even more out of control..."

"So second brother, why should I spend all that energy and money to raise a white-eyed wolf that is destined to be unfamiliar?" At this point, the little girl's tone paused slightly, and she turned her head to look at the boundless vastness.

"What's more, choosing one of them means making enemies with the remaining ten or so parties, and the pressure they will face can be imagined——"

"That's right, if I want to help, then I'll just help him with ten or eight people, and let them go into chaos, causing the kings to seize the heir and divide the desert—"

"Anyway, as long as the Western Merchants are in chaos, it won't threaten me to flatten the northwest. When Fuli returns and Dad and the others recover from their fatigue, we can defeat these eight princes one by one-by then, the Western Merchants in the desert will be defeated." land, it still has to be included in my plan.”

"It's just that although this method is stable, it consumes too much money... Otherwise, do you think Hauljiang will have a way out today?" Master Mu raised his chin slightly with his eyelashes half down, and then he let out a soft sneer.

Hearing the words, Little Gongye Mu was almost frightened into a cold sweat by her words—although he knew that his little girl had a good brain and was somewhat cunning, but he really never thought that this little girl could It's so black! !
This is almost as dark as the fine piece of pine smoke emblem ink that is treasured in His Highness's study, no, she might be even darker than that!
——How did the generals of their family raise a young girl who is naturally suitable for the imperial court?
Outrageous, and he has a little bit of fear.

The young man twitched the corners of his lips, and then took two small steps in the direction away from Mu Xici indiscriminately. After a while, he found an excuse at random and ran away.

The little girl had seen the fright on her elder brother's face early in the morning, but she smiled and kept silent - her second brother had to go through such a scare sooner or later, and it made no difference whether she was scared sooner or later.

Master Mu was thinking in this way, while swaying to remove the several Mu family army flags that she ordered people to plant outside the Quicksand as the eyes of the formation.

With his tens of thousands of war | prisoners of war in Xishang and the Xishang Capital Guard | Guard | Army | Soldier Talisman in hand, she was not worried that Hauljiang would have the courage to change his mind on the spot.

*
Because of the Gyeonggi Guardian | Guard | Army | Soldier Talisman, Hauljiang's actions this time were surprisingly neat.

He was escorted back to Moon City at noon, and before evening, he had already returned the bones of thousands of soldiers from Qianping's past dynasties, and sent a small group of envoys who could represent him to negotiate peace.

Mu Xici almost burst into tears looking at the various ornaments made of human bones, and Mu Xiuning's eyes turned red as he lowered his head and touched the remains.

The younger soldiers in the army sobbed and loaded the corpses of their predecessors onto the cart, while the older ones silently covered the sleeping people with the military flag of Qianping.

The envoys of the Western Merchants huddled at the edge, not daring to make any noise, and everyone subconsciously forgot them in that corner for the time being.

When the moon rose, the soldiers finally settled all the corpses. When the bonfire was lit for cooking by the master of the Huotou Army, Mu Xici, who had confirmed with the veterans that no bones had been lost, let out a long sigh of relief.

Next, there is only one side of the scroll that can accommodate thousands of souls.

The little girl raised her hand and pressed the center of her eyebrows, then beckoned to her elder brother to fetch a new military flag for her.

She wanted to draw two talismans with blood on the military flag, but Mu Xiuning, after seeing the small bronze knife she took out, pursed his lips and carried the military flag behind his back.

"...Little sister, isn't your cinnabar used for drawing talismans? Why are you picking up a dagger." The young man frowned and stared at the weapon in her hand.

He had heard before that people from the Taoist sect had such a method of painting talismans with blood, but he never thought that his little sister would have to suffer such a thing in front of his eyes today.

——Didn't it mean that using blood as a talisman would consume a lot of energy?How could his little sister's small body withstand it!
Mu Xiuning pursed his lips and complained silently. Seeing this, Mu Xici couldn't help but rubbed his fingers and smiled contemptuously: "Damn, it's because he's away on an expedition, and he doesn't have enough materials to make spirit-calling flags."

"In addition, it is thousands of miles away to go to Ganjing in the west of Kalmala, and the ordinary talisman array cannot preserve the souls of so many seniors, so I... hehe."

"Second brother, you don't want to see the seniors lose their souls in the middle of the journey, do you?" The little girl bared her white teeth and followed her persuasively. After hearing this, the young man pouted his chin and fell into deep thought: "Of course I don't want to."

"But the girl's family is prone to deficiency of energy and blood, so you must not be able to hurt yourself in such a hurry." Mu Xiuning rubbed his fingers and thought about it for a moment, then stroked his palm suddenly, "Otherwise... How about using my blood?"

"You?" Mu Xici was taken aback when he heard the sound, and then he looked up and down carefully at his elder brother, and burst out laughing, "Farewell, farewell, second brother."

"The blood energy in your Chunyang boy's body is the most powerful against evil spirits and ghosts. If I really used your blood, I'm afraid what I made would not be a soul-calling banner, but a soul-suppressing banner."

"? Stinky girl, why are you talking about everything!!" The young man was stunned when he heard this, and then hurriedly stepped forward to make a gesture with his teeth and claws.

Master Mu was so amused by his appearance that his stomach ached, and the veterans who had been standing on the edge of the quicksand land looked at the girl in black worriedly, and hesitated to speak for several times.

"Otherwise..." They will not return to Qianping, and go directly to the underworld to reincarnate here.

The leading veteran hesitated and opened his mouth softly, Mu Xici followed the sound and turned his head to interrupt what he hadn't blurted out: "Senior, junior knows what you want to say."

"But it doesn't matter, the junior said he would take you home together, and he will definitely do it."

"Second brother, you don't have to worry about me, I have a sense of proportion." The little girl said and rolled her eyes, "Qianping|country|luck|prosperous, the military spirit is also extremely strong, and my morality is not too shallow. As a member of the army, it is not difficult for me to draw this soul-calling banner for the temporary residence of the seniors."

"The way of heaven will count my merits, and the army soul will also recite the karma for me—"

"It's just a little blood, really, it's nothing." Mu Xici closed her eyes and said lightly. Seeing this, Mu Xiuning knew that she had nothing to say to dissuade her, so she left with a sigh.

When the night soul banner was painted, there were countless breezes in the sand sea.

At the end of the moon, above the vast expanse, the young man finally lifted up the blood-made soul banner that was filled with the heroic souls of the predecessors.

"Senior, let's go home—"
