"Dagan! It's getting late today. It's not too late to dress up tomorrow. For such a big thing, we have to find an auspicious day, right?" Qi Xianghu wiped the cold sweat from his head and came out to smooth things over.
The atmosphere in the village was extremely cold. Zhang Chao protected Cao Sanniang behind him, his face unwavering. Zhong Weng and Yin Yaozi were also close to Zhang Chao, with their hands already on their waists. On Ge Dudagan's side, A group of Uighurs who came in also looked at Zhang Chao and others with contempt.
At this time, the sand dog who retreated quietly came to Ge Du Dagan's ear and whispered softly. Zhang Chao didn't need to listen carefully to know that the sand dog must be telling Ge Du Dagan that Zhang Chao was in the cave. It only took a stick of incense to kill three people, including Zhai Tongjin.
Sure enough, after Shagou'er finished speaking, Zhang Chao clearly felt that Ge Dudagan's momentum had dropped a bit, and his pair of venomous snake-like triangular eyes glanced back and forth at Zhang Chao several times, obviously hesitant.
In addition to being a little wary of Zhang Chao's force, after all, although they looked down on these people in front of them, they still wanted to use the Zhang family to enter the sandbank.
"Dagan! Qi has prepared some food and wine for you all, and asks Dagan to give you a favor!" Qi Xiaohu walked between Zhang Chao and Gedu Dagan this time, and once again crossed his arms to smooth things over.
Zhang's master and servants can ignore it, because there are not many of them at all, but Qi Xianghu still has dozens of men, so he still needs to be given some face. Seeing this situation, Ge Du slowly walked up to Zhang Chao.
"Tomorrow is tomorrow. Since we are united, we have plenty of time, but I want to tell Erlangjun that without the support of the Kucha people like me, it is absolutely impossible for Erlangjun to restore the Zhang family.
Although I, Ge Duo, only have a few hundred men and horses today, there are more than tens of thousands of warriors on the Qilian Mountains. If you lose strong support for a side issue, then the gain outweighs the loss! "
While talking, the bald Uighur did not forget to stare hard at the beautiful face of Lady Cao behind Zhang Chao.
"Let's go! Let the boys camp in the stronghold, eat meat and drink wine!"
After saying the meaningful words, Ge Du let out a strange cry and walked out with a group of Uighurs who had a strong smell of sheep. There were dense footsteps outside, and it was obvious that he had brought many people with him.
"How dare Gou Hu'er look down on me, Zhang!" Zhang Chao didn't say anything. He kept telling himself to be calm, because several of the dozen or so people behind Ge Du were wearing armor, so they were obviously prepared.
Anyone who plays full-armor fighting knows that fighting with armor or without armor is completely crushing. Just like in the game, if someone hits you with a knife and hits you critically, but you hit them and block again and again, it's still a slap in the face! But the old loyal man obviously couldn't bear it anymore. He kept cursing with a red face.
Zhang Chao looked around and saw that Lady Cao's master and servants were in despair with tears on their faces. The others lowered their heads and peeked at Zhang Chao, including Qi Blind Hu, who also looked dejected.
The Uighurs are powerful. It seems that if Zhang Chao offers Lady Cao his hands, they will never object. On the contrary, if Zhang Chao refuses, it is hard to say how they will react.
"Brother Qi! I'm exhausted, please find a quiet place to let a few of you rest for a night!" Zhang Chao said softly, looking at the embarrassed Qi Blind Hu.
Since the Uighurs are not aggressive, he still has some time to think of a solution. Others cannot count on it, but he will never surrender Cao Sanniang's hands, let alone help the Uighurs destroy the Guiyi army. This is the only Han government in the northwest! Never will!
"Yes! Yes! Please come with me, Erlangjun! There is a temple on the top of the mountain. It was originally the place to worship Langjun's great-grandfather Taibao Gong. It has been cleaned by someone. Langjun lives on the mountain and Ge Duo camped in the valley. It is absolutely pure."
. . . . . . . . . . .
"Please! Save them! Please! Save them!"
Zhang Chao heard the shouts coming from the distance. The sound was like a cuckoo dripping blood, and it was extremely sad. He comforted Madam Cao Sanni and just fell asleep, when he felt that he had come to a dark and strange place.
Just when Zhang Chao was confused, a little light came from the distance. The light was still shaking, and there was a humanoid object walking around him. This sad cry was coming from 'him'.
Zhang Chao walked over quickly. It turned out that the light was an antique lantern, which was quite unique. There seemed to be an oil lamp inside, which was emitting a faint light.
The lantern was held in the hands of a man in black with his back turned to him. Zhang Chao compared it and found that this man was similar in stature to him, both tall and strong.
The clothes worn by the man in black seemed to be the same dark-colored lining that he found when he traveled through time, except that he had an extra turban on his head.
"Sir... uh... brother... uh, young master, do you have any help? Where is this place? Why is it so dark?"
After being silent for a long time, Zhang Chao even stamped his feet behind the hidden man, but the other person seemed not to hear and just kept crying.
Finally, Zhang Chao couldn't bear it anymore and shouted softly. Unexpectedly, after he spoke, there was still no response from the other party.
this. . . . ! Even though he was surprisingly brave, Zhang Chao still felt a numb and cold feeling running from his tailbone to the top of his head, and countless scenes from horror movies flashed through his mind.
Isn't it the same routine when encountering a ghost in a movie? With a shrill cry and your back turned to the person, if you can't help but walk over, he will suddenly turn around and scare you half to death!
Regardless, let’s ask where this is?
Zhang Chao, who was brave enough, stretched out his hand and patted the man in the clothes on the shoulder. The clothes of the man in the clothes were cold to the touch and slightly damp. The clothes felt particularly hard under the clothes, not even soft at all, which perfectly matched the various ghosts and monsters in Zhang Chao's imagination. expectations.
He was already prepared for the other party to suddenly turn around and scream, or reveal an unrecognizable face with eyes falling down.
"Are you here? Are you finally here? Great, I've finally waited for you."
Contrary to Zhang Chao's expectation, there was no sudden howl, and no unrecognizable face. The man in concealed clothes holding the lantern slowly turned around, grabbed Zhang Chao's arm with his left hand, and still held the hand in his right hand. The lantern was still emitting light, and his tone was filled with irrepressible surprise.
"This...! Damn it! What the hell is this?" Zhang Chao couldn't help shouting. If you suddenly see someone who looks exactly like you appearing in front of you, you will shout like Zhang Chao.
The man in hidden clothes in front of him actually looked exactly like Zhang Chao, even the mole at the corner of his eye and the thin scar on his forehead were the same.
The only difference is that this man in armor has no ears. It's not that his ears have fallen off, but that he has no ears at all. His sides are smooth, as if he has never had ears. There are no whites or eyeballs in his eyes. They are all It was pitch black.
"He's saved! Everyone's saved!" The man in armor kept saying things that made Zhang Chao confused, and stuffed the lantern into Zhang Chao's hand.
By the light of the lantern, Zhang Chao saw a mighty statue standing in front of him and the man in armor. Why did this suit of armor look so familiar? It seems to be the Mingguang armor that I wore to take selfies?
"Thank you!" At this moment, the man in clothes said softly, and then gave Zhang Chao a shove.
Zhang Chao, who seemed to be standing firmly on the ground, suddenly seemed to fall from the clouds. In the boundless darkness, only the lantern was still shining, as if it was guiding him.
