"Young Master..." After returning to the camp, Zhang Hu, Zhou Zhong and others came to Song Xin with hesitation and confusion on their faces.
"Are you asking why I dare to boast that I can capture Jiagu at noon tomorrow?"
Zhang Hu nodded, "Although we have men and horses, most of them are reduced soldiers and cannot be used at all. If they defect before the formation, it will be troublesome." After finishing speaking, Zhang Hu looked at Song with questioning eyes. Xin.
Song Xin nodded, "It's not that I haven't thought about what you said. I dare to boast that I will capture Jiagu before noon tomorrow, because I simply don't need that many people."
Zhou Zhong and Zhang Hu looked at each other in confusion, "You don't need so many people?"
"Well, only a hundred people are enough."
"A hundred men?" Zhou Zhong and Zhang Hu were immediately shocked. Zhang He and the others had attacked a place where they had lost many troops and generals, but Song Xin actually said that a hundred men could capture it.
"Yes, you go down and get ready. Bring more bows, crossbows, arrows and fire starters. Here is the plan for tonight. You and Zhou Zhong each lead fifty people and act according to the plan."
After Song Xin finished speaking, he handed over a piece of silk. They took it apart and saw that it was exactly what they planned for tonight.
Late that night, Song Xin and Luo Yao set off from the camp, and Zhang Hu and others then led the team to set off. Because there were few people, they did not disturb many people.
Song Xin and Luo Yao walked all the way through the Jia Valley and surveyed the highlands on both sides of the valley. They found that Manxiang had already arranged many overt and covert sentries to guard against enemy sneak attacks. But for Song Xin and Luo Yao, these were just in name only.
After writing down the positions of these overt and secret sentinels one by one, Luo Yao turned back and contacted Zhang Hu and the others. The soldiers under these two men have all eaten the meat of monster beasts, tempered their bodies, and can climb mountains and walk through forests as easily as they can walk on the ground. They started from the highlands on both sides and swept away the sentinels arranged by Manxiang.
Song Xin, on the other hand, came to the Manxiang Camp alone and saw that the gate of the camp was closed and there were patrol posts everywhere. The soldiers' faces looked anxious and anxious.
"It seems that what Luo Yao said is right. I'm afraid the wild elephant won't be able to survive tonight." Song Xin thought of the strange insect he caught. "The Record of Ten Thousand Lives" records that this kind of insect is called the black blood dung beetle. It has fangs and five spikes on the back of its tail, three long and two short.
It is a hybrid of multiple voodoo insects. Once it enters the human body, it will form a white spot between the eyebrows. As long as the person who cast the voodoo gives an order, the person who has been poisoned will go crazy and have infinite power. At the same time, the blood all over his body will be infected by toxins and turn into black poisonous blood. If an ordinary person touches it, he will be poisoned. If he does not use the antidote within twelve hours, he will definitely die. Moreover, the most terrifying thing is that he will transform into a corpse after death.
"The Man Elephant has been poisoned for six or seven hours now." Song Xin thought to himself, and with his Earth Escape, he burrowed into the ground and quickly arrived outside the camp where the Man Elephant lived.
I saw a few soldiers hurried in and out of the camp, carrying copper basins in their hands. They were full of smelly and black things, which were difficult to identify for a while. At this time, a painful sound of vomiting was heard from inside the camp, and then the sound of a copper basin falling to the ground was heard.
"Quickly, clean up quickly." Someone shouted anxiously from inside the tent.
Song Xin quietly sneaked to a foot away from the surface and let go of his consciousness to check. He saw Manxiang lying on the bed, holding a copper basin in his hand and vomiting. Every mouthful was full of smelly black water.
"Master Lu is here..." Manxiang spat out, turned his head and weakly asked the pawn serving him next to him.
"Come on, come on, I'm already waiting in the big tent..."
"Hel me up, I want to see him."
"General, your body..."
"Hurry up and help me over, otherwise if you delay General Chen Lan's affairs, you and I will both lose our heads." Manxiang struggled to hold himself up, but found that he could no longer use his arms.
"No need." The curtain was opened and several people walked in. Manxiang took a look and saw that it was Mr. Lu they just mentioned. But behind Mr. Lu, there was a pale young man, but he had never seen it. There are also three followers who look like puppets, all of them expressionless.
This young man has a slender figure, and his face is covered with a thick layer of powder like the aristocratic youths of this period. It's just that under his pale skin, instead of the ruddy color that his skin should have, there is a blue-gray color.
Song Xin's consciousness swept over the two people and finally stopped on the young man.
"Huh?" The young man frowned instantly and his eyes narrowed slightly. Song Xin didn't expect that he could detect spiritual consciousness, and was slightly surprised. He quickly withdrew his consciousness. The young man's brows relaxed.
"Is this General Xiang Hong?" The young man asked before Mr. Lu beside him could speak. His eyes were just looking around, as if he was still looking for the source of his spiritual consciousness just now.
Manxiang looked pale and nodded, "I wonder who this is...?"
But the young man did not answer him. Mr. Lu beside him spoke first, "Xiang Hong, Mr. Boyan asked me to pass on the order. You have to stay here for half a month. When General Sun's army crosses the river, he will help you." .”
Xiang Hong smiled, with a bit of helplessness, "Look at my body, can I still hold on for half a month?" After saying that, he spit out another mouthful.
The two soldiers beside him saw this man being so rude and shouted loudly: "Who are you? How dare you be rude to the general?"
The two of them stood up and stared at the young man.
At this time, the young man nodded slightly, and a person behind him sneered. Like a ghost, he suddenly rushed in front of the two soldiers, raised his hand and slapped them both. The two people's heads were buzzing after being beaten, but neither of them saw clearly how the other party got in front of them.
Song Xin also frowned on the ground. This quick personal technique was definitely not something that ordinary dead warriors could achieve. However, there was no trace of practitioners on their bodies. Song Xin was very confident in his detection skills. Even if the other party used something to cover up their cultivation, they would still find out something.
The young man stepped forward and reached out to pat the subordinate's back.
"Lu Jia, don't be rude to the general."
"No." The man named Lu Jia took a respectful step back and stood next to Mr. Lu again.
"General Xiang, I hope you won't be offended by your lack of etiquette." The young man smiled and walked up to the elephant. The two soldiers were like frogs seeing a snake, too scared to move.
The young man leaned over and patted Manxiang on the back. With this pat, Manxiang suddenly felt the tightness in his chest go away a bit. He looked up at the young man with a strange face and said, "Thank you for your step."
"Eat this and you will recover within three days." When the young man spoke, his expression did not change at all, as if his face was covered with a mask of character. His chicken-bone-like hands stretched out from his sleeves and grabbed a small square box. Inside was a pill that was the size of a pigeon egg, black, and had a slight odor.
Mr. Lu finally spoke at this time, "Xiang Hong, we have to cross the river to reply to Mr. Boyan. You should take medicine early and have a good rest. You must resist the enemy for another half month. When General Sun's troops arrive, you It’s a great achievement.”
Even though Manxiang was a fierce general who had experienced hundreds of battles, after seeing this young man, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear in his heart, as if he had encountered a corpse in a tomb and suddenly spoke to him.
Manxiang stood up, and after seeing the two of them off, he returned to the table and looked at the pills with a hint of hesitation. The soldier beside him asked: "General, this medicine smells bad. It can really heal wounds." ?"
"Now I can only treat a dead horse as a live doctor." After saying that, he picked up the pill and put it to his mouth, but still hesitated.
"If you eat it, I'm afraid you won't survive."
An unexpected sound made the Manxiang tremble all over. He saw a person slowly floating on the ground. The pawn next to him was shocked and quickly pulled out his ring-headed knife to protect the Manxiang.
"It's you!?"
Manxiang was also surprised. The person in front of him was actually the person who killed Chen Kang in front of the battle today.
Song Xin didn't care about Manxiang's guard, but took a step forward, reached out and took away the pills in front of Manxiang, put it under his nose and smelled, "It is indeed him!"
Song Xin was very familiar with the taste of this pill. He pinched it with two fingers and crushed the pill, and a small black centipede fell out.
"As expected, it's you, Wei Qi!"
"What is this!?" Manxiang was also stunned by the scene in front of him. Too many things happened today that were difficult for him to understand.
since last time
After the lizard beast's grandmother was killed, Wei Qi disappeared without a trace. Song Xin and others searched nearby for a long time but could not find any trace of him, but they did not expect him to show up here again. Moreover, he seemed to have changed into a mask made of human skin and used magic to cover his corpse aura. Song Xin didn't recognize it for a while.
However, this pill still revealed Wei Qi's identity, because only Wei Qi had such a black-armored Tianlong Gu insect.
"Manxiang, eat this and wait until I come back!"
After Song Xin left a message, he threw a few green grapes and rushed out of the camp.
