stand back, let me come

Chapter 1233: This is too abnormal (Part 1233) [Seeking monthly votes]

bad news……

The Wuzu who brought the news hesitated and looked embarrassed.

Cui Zhi, who looked tired and weak, took a deep breath and secretly suppressed the discomfort caused by the backlash of his spiritual energy - the circle of high circular wall that isolated the fire was formed by him. Gong Xichou probably saw something and took the opportunity to destroy it while counterattacking Zhongli Fu.

Cui Zhi blocked the backlash with his own strength, and did not let other scholars suffer. In order not to show weakness in front of the King of Qi, he pretended to be fine, but in fact, his blood was surging inside, and his literary energy was reversed. The injury was not serious, but it was not light, and he needed to rest for a few days. He said sternly: "Just say what you want to say. The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly. Are you trying to delay the military situation by hiding it?"

Wu Zu could only close his eyes and tell the bad news cruelly.

The bad news is...

The original terrain of the granary has been destroyed and has now become a swamp.

The flawless expression of the Queen of Qi finally showed a crack, and she asked in disbelief: "Ju Ze?"

The allied forces had long been prepared for Kangguo's sneak attack on the granary, and divided the grain and grass into several parts and placed them in different areas. No matter which place it was, it could not be a swamp. The so-called swamp is a place where water and grass gather, and another more popular name is a swamp. In order to ensure that the grain does not deteriorate, the granary must be moisture-proof and leak-proof, and built in a dry and ventilated place.

  Set up the granary in Juze?

In just a few days, the food and supplies will become moldy and infested with insects.

Wu Zu could only simply explain the cause and effect.

While the Kangguo troops were acting mysteriously in the Allied camp to attract attention, another mysterious army came to attack the granary.

Cui Zhi asked: "Even Luo Hou sitting in charge didn't stop it?"

  The granary also has a 19th-rank Guannei Hou with a strength similar to Gongyang Yongye, and the other party only arrived in the past two days. No matter how powerful the intelligence on the Kangguo side is, it is impossible for them to know the existence of this person. Pick a sneak attack when the other party is there?

If Kangguo dares to send people here, the King of Hell will dare to take them in!

Wu Zu's strength was mediocre and he was not qualified to intervene in a battle of that level, so he only knew the result of that battle, but not the specific process. According to the intelligence he knew, the granary became a swamp, and the nineteenth-rank Guannei Hou was also responsible for a lot.

The corner of Qi State's mouth twitched fiercely.

Hearing this, she could only suppress her anger for accountability.

"Where is Luo Hou?"

Cui Zhi understood her temperament and knew that she was very angry, so he took the initiative to get up and take on the hard work. He went to contact Luo Hou in person to find out the specific cause and effect, and dispatched people to deal with the grain and grass to see if he could save some of it.

Timely rescue and treatment can recover most of the losses.

At dawn, the sky was pale, and the chaos in the camp finally subsided. Cui Zhi rushed to the granary. The closer he got to the granary, the wetter and softer the soil became. Not to mention the baggage cart, even people standing on it would sink into the mud without noticing, up to their ankles.

Allied soldiers laid the road while pushing out the baggage carts.

Cui Zhi got off the carriage and raised his hand to refuse help.

The scholar also had many words to help him move more easily, ensuring that he could move normally in this swamp and would not get stuck in the mud. After a long while, he finally saw the target of this trip.

"Luo Hou."

The man called "Luo Hou" was a middle-aged man in plain clothes, with standard sword-like eyebrows and square face, and he looked very righteous. But when he opened his eyes to look at people, his pupils were slightly above the white part, which gave people a sense of indifference and world-weariness, and a sense of keeping strangers away.

Cui Zhi called him, but he just moved his eyes slightly.

When Cui Zhi approached, the middle-aged man in plain clothes looked at the other's hem. The robes of scholars were different from those of warriors. The latter preferred narrow sleeves and tight clothes, while scholars were as elegant as they could be. Long robes with wide sleeves were standard, and the hem often covered the instep, or even exceeded the instep, until it dragged on the ground. Cui Zhi's outfit was no exception, and he could only hold up the hem of his clothes awkwardly when walking.

However, his upbringing and habits made him uncomfortable with exposing his feet directly, so he could only lift his clothes up to a limited extent, so the hem of his clothes was still stained with mud and water, until it left a dark mark. Cui Zhichong performed the junior salute to the middle-aged man in plain clothes, who nodded slightly.

Then?

Then I ignored him.

Cui Zhi looked at the chaotic scene around him and asked: "Which powerful enemy came yesterday and could cause such great damage in your hands?"

When the opponent was mentioned, the middle-aged man in commoner clothes responded.

"A living skeleton, a monkey with a broken mouth."

The indifferent expression of the commoner middle-aged man finally showed some ripples, and his tightly furrowed brows were filled with uncontrollable disgust. It was obvious that what happened last night was not very pleasant. He had been living in seclusion for so many years, and as soon as he came out of the mountains, he was taught a lesson by two young men. Naturally, he felt uncomfortable. The commoner middle-aged man could only say the ugly words in advance.

"I'm afraid this opponent will be difficult to resist."

Cui Zhi was shocked: "Why do you say that?"

The middle-aged man in plain clothes said, "Because of that living skeleton, the old leader of the Eternal Life Cult had this form before, and the auras of the two are somewhat similar. The one last night might have some connection with him."

Cui Zhi: "..."

The middle-aged man in common clothes said reluctantly: "I was defeated by that man back then and was forced to agree to his unreasonable demands. If the living skeleton yesterday was his man, it would be difficult for me to do this."

His seclusion back then was not entirely voluntary.

Gongyang Yongye was disheartened and retired to seclusion, but he had hit a wall in Weicheng. He was seriously injured but survived, but was still being held tightly by his enemies, so he dared not show up easily. He agreed to Cui Zhi's help this time, partly because of the relationship between the two ancestors - this relationship was enough for him to take action, but not enough for him to fight desperately - and partly because he was a high-ranking member of the Eternal Life Cult...

If Wei Cheng was on the opposite side, he would have no choice but to stop.

It’s not because the other party is the leader, but because he values ​​his life.

Since the disappearance of Wei Cheng's uncle and nephew, the already chaotic Eternal Life Sect has become even more chaotic, with complicated high-level forces. The commoner middle-aged man is one of the elders of the Eternal Life Sect, a thug that Wei Cheng personally subdued. He doesn't obey Wei Cheng and even wants Wei Cheng to die, but he can't beat him... This is very infuriating.

Cui Zhi sighed and said, "This is something that I know."

The middle-aged man in plain clothes took out a somewhat old scroll from his bosom, but the ink on it was new. The content was all the intelligence collected from the fight with the enemy yesterday. The enemy's appearance, strength, realm, strengths and weaknesses were all written on it. Cui Zhi could discuss with the allies to formulate a targeted layout, which was somewhat useful.

From this information, Cui Zhi also knew why Ju Ze came.

"If the Allies want to win, that scribe must be killed."

The middle-aged man in plain clothes thought of his experience last night, and his face turned even uglier. It was obviously a very unpleasant experience...

"Scribe?"

"Ah."

This story begins a few hours ago.

Since receiving the message from Cui, he rushed all the way to the granary. The commoner was low-key in his middle age, hated to communicate with others, and spent most of his time in meditation in his exclusive tent. Late last night, he keenly noticed the unusual movement of the allied camp.

The scouts sent back news that proved his perception was correct.

All the troops stationed in the granary were mobilized and put on alert.

  However, another Allied general thought that this move was a bit of an overreaction. Not to mention that the granary was divided into several locations, each location was a secret among secrets. Even if the enemy knew, how could they have the spare energy to attack the granary when they attacked the main camp?

Night raids often reduce the number of troops. However, the Allied generals did not dare to challenge him.

For a 19th-rank Guannei Hou, killing him was as easy as slaughtering cattle or sheep.

As time passed, many fires broke out in the direction of the camp, and scouts sent back worse news. The allied generals could no longer sit still and wanted to ask for orders to lead troops to support the camp, but they were suppressed by the middle-aged commoner, who also mocked them with contempt.

[You are like a clay Buddha crossing a river, you can't even protect yourself, and you still want to lead troops to help other places? Save your own lives first. ]

Granary safety is more important.

  How could the Allied generals not know this?

But he was more worried about something else.

The allied forces' food and grass were all centrally managed, but the troops were dispatched by each party. He knew exactly what Qi had done before the alliance was formed. You had never offended Qi before it was destroyed by Qi. Qi's ambitions were obvious to all. What he didn't understand was that there were powerful soldiers in the camp, and the enemy number was only a few thousand. How could they easily cause such a big commotion?

Unless someone deliberately lets down their guard and invites a wolf into the house, using Kangguo to deplete the military strength of future enemies and current allies.

Considered from this perspective, everything seems to make sense.

  Do you believe that Kangguo's thousands of ambushed troops can put the allied forces under pressure from all sides? Haha, he might as well believe that there is a ghost inside!

Once doubt arises, it is difficult to dispel it.

The commoner, middle-aged man, tried to obstruct him in every way, which only aggravated his dissatisfaction.

  This batch of food and grass was said to be the food and grass of the allied forces, but in fact it was still the food and grass of Qi State. Whether it was lost or not would not affect his country, but his country sent elite troops to the alliance this time. This batch of elite camps happened to be at the outermost periphery, the enemy's sneak attack area!

With this feeling in mind, the generals patrolled the camp reluctantly.

As a result, this general won the jackpot.

The wind was blowing coldly and the war horses were neighing in fear.

As soon as they saw this formation, they knew something was wrong. The allied generals clamped their legs around their horses' bellies, tightened the reins, and shouted in a low voice, exuding authority, forcibly suppressing the commotion around them: [Be alert! ]

As soon as he finished speaking, a black light struck down from above his head.

No matter how quickly the general reacted, he was still a step too slow and was hit head-on by the sudden blast of air. Both he and his horse flew backwards several feet. The horse's hooves left four long marks on the ground. With the help of the general's horse-riding skills, he managed to stabilize his body.

The other soldiers were not so lucky.

Those who were close to the center of the black light were hard to find, those who were a little further away had their internal organs shattered by the wind wave, those who were even further away had time to use their martial arts to defend themselves and saved their lives, and those who were the farthest away were just blown to the ground. When the dust faded, they quickly gathered.

"There is an enemy attack——"

Wu Zu passed the information on as soon as possible.

  The moment the fireworks bloomed in the sky, the first ones to react were not the soldiers stationed in the granary, but the enemy soldiers dressed in black!

At this time, the general also saw who had attacked him.

As I saw it clearly, the hairs on my back stood up.

That's not a living person!

  Under the helmet was a crystal clear pink skull, with two flames jumping in the eye sockets, and the rest of the body was covered by dark and mighty armor. He rode a bone horse and held a sword that was more than one meter tall in his hand, with a circle of golden copper rings on the back of the sword. When he raised his hand, the copper rings on the back of the sword collided with each other, making a crisp and creepy sound that even made his soul uncomfortable!

This enemy——

Could it be that he came out from the Hall of Hell?

These thoughts flashed through his mind in a flash.

The fear of the unknown was eventually suppressed by the will to fight, and he drew out his sword: [No matter if you are a human or a ghost, I will chop you up and cook you into soup! ]

The skeleton general laughed strangely.

[Cooking soup? Oh, you are such a big shot, you are such a frog in a well! ]

With a sharp explosion, the general gathered all his strength and attacked head-on, colliding with the skeleton general. The skeleton general did not dodge or evade, but raised his hand to take the attack head-on. This seemingly light action not only tore the general's attack apart, but also had enough strength to counterattack, shaking the general's chest and abdomen, causing the blood to churn and a sweet and fishy feeling to surge up.

There was only horror and fear in my heart.

  He couldn't see through the enemy's strength. He knew there was a gap between the two sides, but he didn't expect the gap to be so big! His intuition told him that he had to run after the next attack, otherwise his life would be in danger! However, his instinct for survival did not overcome his heart, and he chose to attack a second time!

The war horses galloped wildly, rushing towards the enemies coming in the same direction like meteors!

  There is no retreat, there is death but no life!

He roared, completely letting go of the restraints, urging his martial energy to pour out crazily, and instantly exceeded his physical limit. He concentrated all his strength and struck out at the moment of the collision! At the moment of the fight, he realized that he was shaking the mountains!

The skeleton general's horse did not stop for a moment, but he and his horse flew backwards in the opposite direction like a kite with a broken string!

Both the man and the horse were smashed into a deep pit on the ground and dragged out a ditch.

The skeleton general is ready to harvest heads in his next attack.

The knife never fell.

The knife was forced to stop in mid-air.

The middle-aged man in plain clothes picked up the skeleton warrior and took two steps forward. The energy of heaven and earth gathered towards him frantically, and instantly transformed into an inconspicuous armor: [Killing someone in front of me? Who do you think you are? ]

The skeleton general's mouth opened and closed.

He asked tentatively: [Nineteenth-rank Guannei Hou? ]

The middle-aged man in common clothes said: [That's right, don't show off your strength and embarrass yourself, okay? Get out of here, and I'll spare your life! ]

The Skeleton General sneered: [Do you have a name? ]

As he spoke, he raised the big knife in his hand.

As his aura poured into the blade, a bunch of phantom skeleton ghosts crouched on the back of the blade, showing a provocative and ferocious smile to the middle-aged man in plain clothes. Apart from other things, this scene was quite scary. He said: [I am Gong Shubanbu, and I will not kill nameless ghosts with my sword! ]

Middle-aged commoner: [……]

Not only do young people lack ability, they are also quite arrogant.

But he still gave a simple reply: [Luo Yuan. ]

The skeleton general seemed surprised by his identity.

[Luo Yuan? Are you Robben's father? ]

The skeleton general shouted out his identity, and Luo Yuan became even more alert.

When he became famous, he did not use the name Luo Yuan. As time passed, no one should recognize him. Those who could recognize him were either his enemies or had some relationship with the former leader Wei Cheng. No matter which one it was, it gave Luo Yuan a headache...

  This child must not be kept!

If you can kill them, try to eradicate them completely!

Luo Yuan had the intention to kill, and the skeleton generals also noticed it.
