Crowned with Pearls

   Chapter 1149 One hundred and forty-eight Saintess

  Su Rong led him to see those fire guns.

Song Xiangyu used to go to Shenji Camp often in the capital, and he naturally knew how to use fire guns. As soon as he got started, he couldn't help but praised him and laughed: "Okay, it really belongs to you, what's the matter? When it's in your hands, it can turn into a good thing in the end! With this thing, we'll be sure of it this time."

Su Rong couldn't help but ask: "I've come this way, and I see that my morale seems to be a little low. What's going on? Logically speaking, we have already won several major states in succession, and other places are not difficult. Why are you stuck in this town road appeasing division and Yang Tang appeasing division?"

Speaking of this, Song Xiangyu's face became a little ugly: "Don't mention it, the local people are all Miao people, and all of them are seedlings, who live in the mountains and refuse to go down the mountain, they are the same as the native people we met before. The difference is that these people are all from one stockade and one stockade. There are still great witches in the stockade. There are many great witches in their stockades, and they didn't deal with each other at first, but after the people from the court came, they worked together. In fact, , it's not difficult to deal with them alone, after all, how many storms and waves we have come to now, but you don't know."

   Song Xiangyu said, suddenly there was a huge scream from outside, as if his arm was cut off, his expression changed suddenly.

  Su Rong also found it strange: "What's going on?"

  Song Xiangyu didn't bother to answer him, he hurriedly opened the tent and went out, Su Rong followed without hesitation, and saw that Song Xiangyu stopped after running for a while, and was standing still not knowing what he was looking at.

He also hurriedly accelerated his pace, and when he ran to the front, he made a strange snort, and then took a step back subconsciously--he saw someone carrying a wounded soldier, originally thought it was an ordinary wounded soldier on the battlefield, this situation He was used to it, and he had seen even the most tragic scenes, but he had never seen such a tragic scene---the wounded soldier's trousers were densely covered with black bugs of different sizes. I don't know what kind of bug it is, but it looks like my scalp is tingling.

   Seeing that Song Xiangyu was just silent for a moment and then ordered the wounded soldiers to be taken away, he couldn't help asking: "What's going on?"

  Thinking of what Song Xiangyu said before, he thought, as if he knew why.

Song Xiangyu sighed, let out a sigh of relief, and slammed on the ground again: "Don't mention it, it's because of this! Those Miao people, they are different from the Miao people we met before, these are seedlings. , They are very loyal to their stockade, never leave their stockade easily, and rarely intermarry with people outside the stockade, but this place, if we don't fight it down, it will be extremely troublesome at that time. !"

  Su Rong immediately understood what Song Xiangyu meant. This place is a strategic place. If you go further south, it will be Annan. How can you be assured that this place is not standing by yourself?

   Just those Miao people

   Next, many wounded soldiers were sent back. Without exception, these people were either covered with insects or bitten by poisonous snakes, and the situation was very bad.

  Su Rong didn't have much reaction at first. The more he read it, the more his back felt numb. After a while, he remembered, "Where's Your Highness?"

   Song Xiangyu beckoned him back to the tent, pouring tea for him and explaining, "His Royal Highness visited a nearby Miao village today."

   "What?" Su Rong was instantly horrified: "Those Miao people are so ruthless, how can they let His Highness take such a risk?"

  If those people also used this method to deal with Xiao Heng, what would Xiao Heng do?

Song Xiangyu was actually not at ease, but seeing Su Rong's reaction was so intense, he still had to explain and appease him, and said, "This village is called Heihua Village, it is one of the dozens of nearby Miao villages, with good intentions and less extreme methods. There is one. His Highness means that we can't really let the imperial troops and horses be damaged in such a large number, and besides, do we really want to exterminate these Miao people? These seedlings are different from mature seedlings, they do not have contact with Han people, He is also very hostile to the Han people, and he must find a breakthrough, otherwise, other methods will only cure the symptoms and not the root cause.”

  Su Rong understood, but he was still very worried: "That's it, there's no need for His Highness to take the risk in person? After all, the son of a thousand gold can't sit down in the hall!"

"This." Song Xiangyu coughed and looked at Su Rong with some embarrassment. After a while, he said softly: "You don't know, the great witch of Heihuazhai is a woman, and the seat of their great witch is held by women. , when the imperial troops arrived, these villages united to resist the imperial court. For some unknown reason, there was an infighting between them. A village called Lijiang Village clashed with Heihua Village. Lijiang Village was domineering, and they The sorcerer of Heihuazhai is also more powerful than the one in Heihuazhai, and almost killed the saintess of Heihuazhai on the spot. It was His Highness who came to help.”

  Su Rong raised his eyebrows.

   Immediately realized why Xiao Heng went to Heihua Village.

   It turns out that there is still this layer of origin.

   He asked meaningfully: "Wouldn't this be. After the hero saves the beauty, he has to promise himself?"

   If that's the case, then Su Rong would never agree to let Su invite and Xiao Heng get too close.

  I haven’t gotten married yet. If you want to marry for this reason, will you still have it in the future?

   On the other hand, Song Xiangyu didn't refute immediately upon hearing this.

  Su Rong really sensed something was wrong this time, he couldn't help raising his voice: "It can't be true, right? Is this what His Highness meant?!"

Song Xiangyu hurriedly shook his head: "Where do you want to go? Don't you know His Highness's temperament? How could he be such a person? I mean, His Highness doesn't mean that, but I see Heihuazhai. That's what I mean, otherwise, I wouldn't invite His Highness to go up the mountain. Let me tell you, shortly after Mr. Cui came, he was hit with the barrier poison they arranged. This barrier poison is really powerful. Fortunately, Heihuazhai brought people up to the mountain, saying that it can help Mr. Cui detoxify, and His Royal Highness is going up the mountain, so there is this reason."

  Su Rong nodded, he finally understood why the progress was so slow this time.

  These seedlings do not have contact with outsiders, but because they have lived here for generations, they have a good understanding of the local terrain and creatures, and even these snakes, insects, mice and ants can be controlled by them.

   These people are really a headache.

  Song Xiangyu looked at him angrily: "Do you understand?"
