While the rest of the cave owners had not yet come out of seclusion, Li Xiang had just stepped into the Twelve Cave Ridge, which was regarded as a sacred place by the people in the mountains of Raojiang. He could not even appreciate the excellent surrounding scenery carefully, so he left in a hurry.
Twelve Cave Ridge is located in the hinterland of the Shiwan Mountains in Raojiang. It is far away from the secular world. The mountains are secluded and the water is calm. There is no clutter of silk and bamboo, and no labor of eucalyptus and tablets. It is like a hermit lying in the mountains, watching the birds and listening quietly. Wind song.
Li Xiang just took a quick glance and knew that living here must be very comfortable and comfortable. But that's not the place he yearns for. The knife will rust if left in the sheath for a long time. If a person lives too comfortably, the flesh of the shoulder will regenerate.
Li Xiang is high-spirited and high-spirited, but he is out of tune with the Feng Shui here. Uncle Yang looked at Li Xiang's back and didn't turn around for a long time. He seemed to be looking at him, but also seemed to be missing others through this similar figure.
When there were only similar clouds and fog intertwined in front of him, Uncle Yang lowered his head and sighed weakly: "Xingyun, you must be more careful." As a token, Li Xiang entered the Ten Thousand Poison Cave directly and waited patiently for the summons from the Witch King Chi Li.
With the insect technique in hand, the initiative is now in his hands, and Li Xiang can wait slowly for Chi Li's reaction.
Chi Li was very excited when he heard the message from his subordinates. Since Li Xiang dared to come back to him, there was a high probability that he had successfully obtained the insect technique of Twelve Cave.
He immediately ordered his men to prepare a grand banquet to receive the wind and wash away the dust for Li Xiang, and then ordered the beautiful maid to bathe and change Li Xiang's clothes.
The altar of soldiers, gods and monsters has almost become Chi Li's inner demon. Deep in his heart, he actually wants to rush to Li Xiang immediately, then tear up the bet and use witchcraft to torture the ancient magic insect technique.
But Li Xiang is not the Gu King Chi Li, but there is a bad handsome man standing behind him. The fear of the bad handsome man has brought back Chi Li's reason. He does not dare to use the same method to deal with his own brother to deal with the bad handsome man.
An hour later, the Witch King was in silence.
"Witch King, the young priest is back."
"Let You Chuan come in." The servant led You Chuan to see the Witch King. Young Priest Officer You Chuan has gentle eyebrows, handsome appearance, and tall figure. He wears a variety of Xinjiang-style silver ornaments, and he has the temperament of an exotic nobleman.
"Father, the banquet has been prepared, and the distinguished guests have finished bathing and changing clothes." As soon as You Chuan came in, he lowered his head and called the Witch King's foster father. He was not only the young priest of Ten Thousand Poison Cave, but also the Witch King's adopted son.
The Witch King has no children, so You Chuan is the heir of the Ten Thousand Poison Cave, just like Chi Meng, the daughter of the Gu King.
The Young Priest Officer and the Holy Lady are both titles, not official positions. They merely symbolize the status of You Chuan and Chi Meng in Ten Thousand Poison Cave.
Chi Li stood up: "Okay." You Chuan came to Chi Li's side to support him and whispered: "The maids have looked at it. There is no scroll in Li Xiang's underwear." It was a pity that Chi Li failed to pick it up, but he also felt that Of course, he sighed: "He is a handsome man after all."... At the banquet, Chi Li took the main seat, Li Xiang and You Chuan sat across from each other. After three rounds of wine, Chi Li dismissed the surrounding waiters Servant, even You Chuan was called away by him.
After Youchuan closed the door, he stood at the door with his arms crossed. Chi Li then put down the wine cup in his hand and said seriously: "Since Your Highness has retrieved the insect technique from Twelve Dongs, I will abide by the agreement. Raojiang will send troops to help Your Highness regain what belongs to you."
"There is no urgency to attack the Central Plains." Li Xiang did not agree happily as Chi Li wished, but instead said unhurriedly,
"It won't be too late to create a fully-organized army of the God of War." Chi Li hesitated: "If we don't build an army, how can we have enough raw materials to make the God of War and the Monster Altar." Making the God of War requires living people, and the higher the skill, the better. Okay, but after becoming a god of war, you will lose your thinking and consciousness and become a puppet.
Therefore, he was very happy to use a small number of criminals and political opponents who resisted Chi Li to create the altar of warrior gods and monsters, but he was still unwilling to use his own Zhongcheng men to create warrior gods to help Li Xiang restore his country.
If it weren't for the last moment, Chi Li wouldn't want to turn his loyal men into soldiers. These people are his tentacles. With their help, the Witch King can control the Ten Thousand Poison Cave.
Li Xiang sneered and said: "I just said I won't attack the Central Plains for the time being, but I didn't say I won't raise troops or capture slaves." Chi Li became interested: "Oh, where is Your Highness going to attack?"
"Tuyuhun." Li Xiang said coldly,
"In the ninth year of Zhenguan, Tuyuhun once launched a large-scale attack on Raojiang, killing the people of Raojiang and burning Miao villages. After that, Tuyuhun also invaded Raojiang many times and plundered property."
"That is because in the second year of Dashun of Emperor Zhaozong, the Tuyuhun territory was invaded and occupied by the Tibetans, and the people were displaced. Now they even need to rely on the Shatuo tribe and Jin Wang Li Keyong. The Tuyuhun gradually stopped because they no longer had the strength to invade."
"However, Raojiang still hates him deeply. Many relatives and elders of the village masters under the command of Wandu Cave died at the hands of Tuyuhun. If they attack Tuyuhun, they can form an army in the name of revenge and defeat the stragglers in each village. Into one stock.”
"Furthermore, attacking Tuyuhun has some advantages. The soldiers are unaware and are not affected by the terrain. They will not suffer from dizziness, headache, panic and fatigue like the Tang soldiers under General Xue Rengui did in the past, and will not damage their combat effectiveness." Chi. Li was very excited. If he could really form such an army, as long as he thought of a way to keep 50% of it afterwards, his power would greatly increase.
Chi Li became excited: "Your Highness deserves to be the Dragonborn of the Tang Dynasty. With a few simple words, I suddenly understood that since His Highness has a plan, what about the insect arts of Twelve Cave." Li Xiang pointed to his head: "All the insect arts are here, The Witch King will not think that I will leave everything to you for such an important matter."
"Although I don't know how to bewitch, I am proficient in medical skills. I want to participate in the creation of the altar of soldiers, gods and monsters." Chi Li said, "Of course."...
"...At this point, Li Xiangxian and the Witch King successfully created an altar of military gods and monsters, and formed an army of five hundred soldiers. With them as the vanguard, in the name of revenge, they attacked the snowy plains, defeated Tuyuhun, defeated the Tubo pursuers, and gained a large number of soldiers. captive."
"Li Xiang made all of them into the God of War and Monster Altar, successfully formed the God of War Army, occupied the Southern Han Dynasty, and established himself as King Qiong." Duan Chengtian's mouth was dry when he told such a magnificent story, and he was still next to him. Miaocheng Tian had a good eye and served him drinks.
Pulling away from this shocking feeling, Li Xingyun shook his head, and then sarcastically said: "The bad guys are really powerful. Even Li Xiang knew the conversation between Li Xiang and my master at Twelve Cave." Duan Chengtian said normally: "Of course, after all, King Qiong personally told the commander-in-chief."
"..." Li Xingyun shook his head: "Li Xiang has already occupied the Southern Han Kingdom and is attacking the Chu Kingdom. The situation is great and the country is expected to be restored. Why does the commander have to ask Uncle Duan to come to me again. Duan Chengtian imitated the commander's tone and said: "It is because Li Xiang is so powerful and has great righteousness that it arouses the fear of the kings. Someone will come to find your highness in the near future and elect him as the leader of the alliance to fight against Li Xiang." "
"The Marshal knew that His Highness would definitely agree in the end, so he asked me to give His Highness something."
"What?"
"Involving the Longquan treasure box that contains the secret of Longquan."
