Legend of the Demon Emperor of Kyushu

Chapter 97 Lian Hongye (1)

Really violent waves can only be discovered when they rush to the front, but when they are discovered, it is already too late.

Ye Ziqi looked at the Jiuwanmu River in the distance, and remembered the saying that was spread by the seaside that he had read in the book.

The sky is a gray color that is about to fall with snow, gradually arching towards the rising sun.Ye Ziqi was ordered to lead a dozen or so newly recruited soldiers to the cave outside the mountain to change shifts with the night watchmen.

The cold air was blowing in the snow ridge, and my ears turned red all of a sudden.Fortunately, since he chatted with Xue Yishen that night, he has practiced the dragon-shaped needle spinning skill and demon skill every day, and his body is more resistant to freezing.

Looking down, the whole forest swayed slightly, and occasionally a few birdsong echoed in the wind.Recently, the offensive activities of the barbarians have become less, and the whole mountain looks fresh and quiet, which makes people think that there may be cold plums blooming at the foot of the mountain.

Spring has arrived, and the only thing left in the whole country of Ju is this place that still retains the feeling of winter, as if this is the place where winter is buried deepest, the midnight of winter.This thought made Ye Ziqi feel a little uneasy.

"It's so long, it's so long, there are deer seeds!" Brother Liu, a hunter-born subordinate, has sharp eyes and pointed out a brown shadow in the bushes.

"Good guy, come with me. I have some meat to eat today." Ye Ziqi took out his big crossbow, and specially told him: "Let me shoot first, if I can't shoot correctly, you shoot again, I want to practice archery. The rest The people continue to guard here."

The two of them groped over quietly, not sure if they hid well, or the deer was not afraid of people, and ran straight towards them. Ye Ziqi was overjoyed, and he buckled the bowstring. Three arrows were fired at once, and the crossbow arrows pierced the wind. You have to say a good word.

With another strike of the Hundred Hitting Curse, the one hit by the arrow nailed the deer alive to a big tree!

"What a good arrow!" Brother Liu praised.

Ye Ziqi rushed up, stepped on the tree, and pulled out the three crossbow bolts with all his strength.

"There are so many beasts coming here recently." Brother Liu said, "This is the God of the Mountain blessing us and giving us a blessing."

"Oh, then you make a clay statue for the mountain god at noon, and pay it as a tribute when you eat."

As soon as Ye Ziqi finished speaking, a warning sign suddenly appeared in his heart: "The enemy is coming, hide!"

Reminder from the old demon head.

Ye Ziqi didn't say a word, grabbed Brother Liu and hid behind two pine trees, staring at the mountain road, after a while, four barbarians really came up, with strong muscles and sharp sabers, looking like they followed the footprints of deer.

"Barbarians..."

Brother Liu was surprised to find that Ye Ziqi suddenly seemed to be a different person, his eyeballs were bloodshot, his chest heaved and fell sharply, and he shouted two words softly, his tone was chilling to the bone.Then, he rushed out.

Just as the four barbarians surrounded the deer's body to speak, two of them were pierced by crossbow arrows at the same time, and the eyes of the other two barbarians were splashed red with blood.

Ye Ziqi violently raised his sword, cut off another person, bounced with a lunge, and then raised his sword to pounce on the last one, but the barbarian reacted in time, raised his hand and forcibly strangled Ye Ziqi's forearm and wrist, Ye Ziqi and him froze for a while , a little lack of strength, the barbarian grinned grinningly, and just regained his posture, an arrow pierced his waist in the side, it turned out that brother Liu succeeded in the attack.

Ye Ziqi threw the barbarian away and recovered the feather arrow.

"These horse thieves may also come to hunt. I'll go ahead to see if there are any leftovers. No matter how many are left, I'll chop them up and you will cover from behind." Ye Ziqi said with a flush on his face, obviously killed Sex is up.

Brother Liu said: "Okay!" He was also a little excited by the infection, and secretly rejoiced that the old Shichang Lin Fang had chosen a good successor. With such a capable Shichang, there is no need to worry about lack of military achievements.

Ye Ziqi didn't say any more, and walked down with blood boiling.

Then he walked up with a pale face.

"run!"

Ye Ziqi let out a low cry, and led his men to run towards the entrance of the cave, not even letting the deer be picked up.

Brother Liu had no choice but to follow in a daze, and when he ran to a place with a wide view, he finally couldn't help looking back, and then he let out a startled cry, breaking the silence of the snow forest, it sounded creepy!
Under those hundred-year-old trees, countless hundreds of barbarian warriors were wearing brown-yellow battle suits, advancing steadily on the snowy road, and surrounded their cave entrance in a big fan shape, like ghosts, and like that There are hordes of monsters.

"Don't panic!" Ye Ziqi yelled at Brother Liu, at the same time turned away his face that was pale with cold, and cast his cold eyes on the hillside, "Lead them into the cave, use the traps inside, and kill them all!"

Brother Liu was overwhelmed by Ye Ziqi's murderous aura, and finally calmed down.

Ye Ziqi led all his men into the cave and assigned them to the various traps, waiting for the horse thief to come in.

A black figure appeared at the entrance of the cave, and everyone held their breath, holding their swords tightly——

The barbarians stopped moving forward, but lit a fire at the entrance of the cave!

Thick smoke from the tongue of fire poured into the tunnel, Ye Ziqi wanted to find a chance to shoot a few to death, but as soon as the smoke arrived, he couldn't help coughing and his eyes watered.

A voice also came from the inner sea at this time: "A wind shaman is controlling the direction of the wind, and even poisoned the smoke!"

"Hold your breath, retreat inside!" Ye Ziqi shouted immediately, while directing people to quickly withdraw into the cave, while cursing secretly: "These bastards!"

"It's so long, don't worry." Brother Liu comforted, "Our second guard can hide for so long because the caves in this mountain are intricate and connected with each other, like a maze. out of the hole."

Brother Liu was talking confidently. At the fork in front of him, a puff of smoke came in first, blocking the way and covering the light of the torches on the road, making the tunnel even more eerie and eerie.

"His grandma's!" Brother Liu was stunned: "What's going on?"

Without saying a word, Ye Ziqi summoned two big leaves, first blocked the tunnel and fork in the road behind him, and then ordered everyone to speed up and run down.

The subordinates praised one after another, there are so many ways!

However, just after a group of people ran down a few steps, another puff of smoke came out from nowhere, which made people dizzy. In the hollow.

The group was finally able to take a good breath, and felt very comfortable immediately, but when they looked up, they were all stunned. There were more than 20 openings connected to this big cave, all of which were emitting thick smoke into the cave!

"How is it possible..." Ye Ziqi raised his throat suddenly, is he going to be suffocated to death in the mountain?
At this moment, the centurion Chen Wufu strode over: "Little Yezi, take people to line up over there!"

Hearing the officer's calm voice, Ye Ziqi finally regained his composure, and answered: "Yes!" Then he looked in the direction indicated by Chen Wufu——

At some point, there was a new opening in the north of the cave, and there was no smoke coming in from there. Thousands of people from Erwei were lining up and leaving the opening in an orderly manner.

Ye Ziqi ran over immediately, found Gu Feng who was also leading a team of people in the queue, and asked, "What's the matter with this hole? When was it opened? Where does it go?"

Gu Feng replied: "Have you been staying in the cave these two days? This road was dug out by General Xue and a group of earth warlocks in the past few days. The purpose is to deal with this kind of situation."

"Amazing." Ye Ziqi couldn't help admiring Xue Yi's foresight, and then shouted at his subordinates: "Brothers, come here, the way to survive is here!"

So Ye Ziqi's first team and other teams returning from guarding outside all lined up at the back of the queue.Looking back, there were only a few wind warlocks left in the cave, standing at the entrances of various caves, directing all the incoming smoke to the sky above the cave, so as to avoid causing confusion to the army.

There are also pots, kettles and stoves all over the floor, and a large number of large-scale blasting stone mines piled up together. These logistics cannot be taken away.

But there is another strange scene: beside the explosive quarry, there are several officers standing, all of whom are well-known in the second guard. They are not in a hurry to retreat, but they seem to be checking the quarries that cannot be taken away. , looking unhurried.

Ye Ziqi didn't have the energy to think about it, so he followed the team into the mountain road.Turning a corner, I saw Lieutenant General Xue Yi standing at the intersection to count the personnel.

He simply saluted and greeted him, but Xue Yi reached out and stopped him.

Ye Ziqi raised his head in astonishment, and saw Xue Yi looking upright, staring into his eyes and said: "This hole was able to be dug out because the information you and Gu Feng brought made General Lian aware of the existence of the beast spirit.

In order to prevent the barbarians from finding out the terrain information of our hiding place from the wild beasts in the snow mountain, the general ordered to dig a new road that the wild beasts in the mountain did not know.

You guys saved Erwei. "

Ye Ziqi suddenly trembled in his heart, lowered his head, and bit his lips lightly.

"Really, then, that's good." He said softly, like a little bird fluttering lightly in his heart.

"Well, general." As if to change the subject, Ye Ziqi turned his head and glanced behind him: "I think there are still some officers who haven't come up. When I left, I saw them all surrounded by the pile of explosive stones. what are you doing?"

"They..." Xue Yi's expression turned serious: "They are all experts in the army who have practiced fire kung fu. The barbarians released poisonous smoke to attack this time, but they didn't see our people running out. They will definitely come in to check the situation later.

Moreover, the chivalrous Elder Le Zhong helped General Lian suppress the Thousand Miles Seeking Curse for the time being, so they would think that the general was still in this mountain.These people voluntarily stayed, and only waited for the barbarians to come in, and they would use their skills to detonate the explosive stones. At that time, the entire cave, including the tunnels in the mountain, would collapse, and these horse thieves who came in would be buried in one fell swoop! "

Ye Ziqi was shocked when he heard this: "Then they..."

"En." Xue Yi nodded and remained silent.

Ye Ziqi continued to walk away, the light in the tunnel was already dim, he felt a little dizzy before his eyes, his footsteps seemed to be filled with lead, after walking for an unknown amount of time, he finally saw the light from the exit.

This exit leads to the foot of the mountain in the north of the snow ridge, Ye Ziqi walked out, and saw the water of the Jiuwanmu River rushing in the distance.He didn't know where the team was going, but just followed the army towards the direction of the river.Suddenly, his footsteps were unsteady, he felt the ground tremble, and he almost fell into the grass.

He turned his head and saw countless snow on the mountain suddenly falling down. He didn't know if he was hallucinating, and felt that the whole snow mountain was shaking, but after a short time, everything returned to calm, as if nothing happened Pass.

"Qingshan is honored to bury his loyal bones." Ye Ziqi remembered this sentence he had read in books since he was a child, and understood its meaning for the first time.
