These four strange-looking people alone were not in Gu Cheng's eyes, but the forces they belonged to should not be underestimated.
In the ancient books of the Pre-Qin Dynasty, the indigenous peoples in the southern coastal areas are collectively called Baiyue, which is not an easy opponent to fight against.
The next twenty years will be the stage of unification of the world, and the true demise of Baiyue will occur at the end of these twenty years, when the Qin Dynasty destroys the six kingdoms, gathers the power of the seven kingdoms, and sends 500,000 troops, a total of three conquests, and consumes
It took nine years and more than 300,000 casualties before complete victory was achieved.
Later generations attributed part of the reason for the demise of Qin II to the fact that during the three Baiyue Wars, the people complained and uprisings occurred frequently in various places. It is indeed undeniable that it is somewhat similar to Yang Guang's Three Conquests of Goryeo.
Of course, the four people in front of me cannot represent Baiyue. They come from Wuyue.
Wuyue is a branch of Baiyue. During the Spring and Autumn Period, there were two countries: Wu and Yue. They were later destroyed by Chu. They developed again in the Warring States Period, and then were destroyed miserably.
There is nothing you can do about it. It is a crime to hold a treasure. Don't think that the indigenous country is very poor. On the contrary, it contains rich mineral deposits and a large number of gemstones that are sought after by the nobles.
In recent years, the Qin Dynasty has repeatedly sent troops to attack the three Jin Dynasties. Han, Wei, and Zhao have suffered terribly, especially South Korea, which has a small land area and has to cede land and pay compensation, which makes it even more unsustainable.
At a time when the Chu State was coveting the rare treasures of the Baiyue Land and wanted to send troops, South Korea took the initiative and provided strong bows and crossbows. The two parties hit it off and sent troops to destroy Wu Yue and plunder a large amount of wealth.
The king of Wuyue was a mediocre man, but the prince was a wise man. He liked to recruit strange people from all walks of life before he came to the throne. He was also called the Red Eyebrow Lord because he was born with a different appearance.
It is a pity that under the overwhelming trend, Wu Yue should be destroyed or destroyed. This red-browed king also disappeared, and his life and death are unknown.
Now this group of strangers are here just for the missing prince.
"How are you preparing?"
The old man who raised the snakes was called the King of Hundred Poisons. He was good at using poison to drive away beasts. His own strength was mediocre, but the disaster of the wild python would make even the most powerful person feel numb when encountering it.
"Three months of hard work is not in vain!"
The man in a cloak standing on the altar of bones is an exorcist. As the leader of Wu Yue's hidden witches, the art of exorcism he mastered has caused considerable damage to the elite cavalry of the Xiang clan in Chu State. It is Wu Yue who
A killer weapon in the Gu art that can be used to fight against the army.
At this time, the bone altar was indeed not built overnight. There were talismans and prohibitions all over it. Gu insects were crawling around, pulling and redirecting the energy of the earth veins and gathering Baiyin.
Feeling the endless flow of Yin Qi pouring into the Gu worms, the exorcist demon's eyes showed a look of fanaticism, and he chanted in a chanting tone: "In the land of Changping, there are millions of soldier souls. When I am here, I am invincible!"
"Very good! We must get the whereabouts of His Royal Highness from the Xiongnu Touman Chanyu. Compared with Li Mu's head, it is easier for the Qin master to obtain it. We must not miss this opportunity!"
This is a supreme treasure land for exterminating corpses, and the Inferi can also become the best carriers of venomous snakes, forming a perfect coordination. King Baidu firmly believes that his own arrangement can defeat tens of thousands of Qin troops, and the mere group of envoys outside
It's so effortless.
In view of this, he looked at the giant: "Wushuang Ghost, you don't want to participate in this battle!"
"Ugh! Ouch!"
Hearing this, Wushuang Ghost bared his teeth and shouted angrily, but he couldn't utter a single complete word.
"Ha! Don't be dissatisfied. The giant spirit Gu King in your body has not yet merged with your body, which is why you are so short. When you are twice as tall, you will have copper ribs and iron bones, invulnerable to weapons and bullets. When you charge into battle, you will be invincible!"
The Wushuang Ghost is already majestic in body, difficult to compare with ordinary people, but in the eyes of the King of Hundred Poisons, it seems that it is far from enough. He has to grow to be several feet tall to be considered qualified.
"What about me?"
The girl on Wushuanggui's shoulder held her chin with her hand and asked lazily. Her eyes were as charming as the spring light in March. Even the exorcist, who had long been heartless and unfeeling, couldn't help but look sideways.
"Touman Chanyu has a son. I believe he will like a stunning little beauty like you very much!"
Jie Jie, the King of Hundred Poisons, laughed strangely: "Jie Yanling, instead of playing with fire, why not learn more about how to seduce the king. When you grow up and turn all living beings upside down, everything will be at your fingertips!"
Yan Lingji blinked her eyes and said with a smile: "If one day comes, the first thing I ask the king to do is to arrest you, torture you every day and night, and not let you die. That would be interesting.
!”
This was said with a sweet smile and a complete joke, but the King of Hundred Poisons felt a chill in his heart and closed his mouth.
"Recharge your batteries and fight tonight!"
The exorcist was too lazy to listen to the bickering. With a wave of his hand, the four of them fell silent again, but no one could notice. Under the valley of injustice, the energy of the earth quickly receded.
…
…
"Young master, I want to invite you. What's the important matter?"
On the other side, Gan Luo came behind Gu Cheng, raised his hands and asked.
His attitude seemed to be respectful, but his eyes actually contained contempt.
In Gan Luo's eyes, King Qin Yingzheng was a puppet in the hands of his teacher Lu Buwei, and he even talked nonsense about a son of King Qin.
This mission to the State of Zhao was regarded as a stage for him to show off his skills. This so-called envoy was just a display of high status.
"There are some Baiyue people in front who want to ambush us with the technique of driving away corpses!"
Gu Cheng pointed to the Valley of Injustice and said calmly.
"The remnants of Baiyue? Young Master is joking!"
Gan Luo shook his head.
Baiyue is in the south and Zhao is in the north. Even if there is a foreign enemy attacking, it should be the Huns.
"I also feel uneasy in my heart."
However, at this time, Gai Nie came over and asked, "How do you know where the ambush is, Master?"
Gu Cheng smiled and said, "I learned some tricks to protect myself."
Gai Nie didn't ask for details and said directly: "Please give me the order, Master!"
"Our Great Qin Kingdom is so majestic and powerful, how can we allow the young people to retreat?"
Gu Cheng said resolutely: "Get ready to fight!"
"yes!"
After Gai Nie accepted the order, he heard Gu Cheng say again: "Hundred ghosts walk at night, and groups of corpses pass by. Only when the Yin Qi is strong can the strongest power be exerted. Remember, this battle needs to be fought quickly!"
"Don't bother me, sir!"
Gan Luoxin must have been accompanied by an elder from the Yin Yang family to protect him. After scouting the route in advance, he warned him. You really pretended to be a mere Baiyue man. Couldn't he and Gai Nie join forces to settle things?
However, Gai Nie sensed something was wrong: "Know yourself and your enemy, and you will never be defeated in a hundred battles. I hope you will teach me!"
"These Baiyue strangers have been prepared for a long time. If they underestimate the enemy, it may be difficult to save these thousands of Qin's elite cavalry."
Gu Cheng raised his head and looked directly at the setting sun: "Now there is still half an hour before the sun sets. During this time, I can kill the enemy's leader. I can still give some help. After I fall asleep, there is nothing I can do..."
