Just when Maisui's hand was about to touch a corpse, someone suddenly tapped him on his shoulder.
This moment, it felt very familiar, and it suddenly brought Maisui back from the state of being almost completely possessed.
Looking back, the person in front of her was someone she was very familiar with.
"Daddy~~~"
At that moment, the little girl couldn't bear it any longer, threw herself into her father's arms, and cried loudly, her heart breaking, and her tears streaming down like rain.
Ye Ming didn't say much, just held the little girl gently.
She has not enjoyed many happy times, and misfortune has always been with her. Even if she uses magic power to refine part of the misfortune, she still cannot get rid of the entanglement of misfortune. People around her will always encounter various disasters... .
However, Ye Ming doesn't care about this. He is a demon, and demons don't need to care about things like bad luck.
In his eyes, Little Wheat Spike is just his obedient, taciturn daughter...
Ye Ming found the village woman's soul, put it away, and personally found the Linxian City God, asking them to make arrangements for the village woman's underworld.
I went to see the village woman's husband again and had nothing to say. I lost more than 30,000 yuan in compensation from Li Rang.
After doing all this, Maisui, who had recovered somewhat, only said, "I hate these people."
Ye Ming only replied "I know".
The father and daughter left the mountain village together and went to look for the team to cross the river...
...
After Li Rang ordered the emperor's troops to throw away useless things, the nobles chose to throw away a large amount of food, leaving only enough for themselves.
As for gold and silver treasures, even a piece of silver would not be willing to be thrown away.
Including Li Rang himself. Since all the treasures were taken away by Ye Ming, he had long taken advantage of the opportunity on the road to embezzle a large amount of money from the palace maids and eunuchs, making countless people dissatisfied.
But he didn't care. As long as the emperor could still use him, he didn't have to worry about anything.
As for the lack of food on the road, what other people eat is completely out of their consideration. As long as they have food to eat and their treasures are there and not lost, that's fine.
If the palace maids, eunuchs, subordinates, etc. die, we can just recruit a group of people. It's no big deal.
In this regard, those who are doing things are naturally quite dissatisfied, and some of them are passive and sabotage.
Li Rang simply chose to abandon some of his people and prepare to sail.
Just when they were having a lot of internal conflicts, someone came to help them resolve them!
"Ancestor, what's wrong, there's an army coming from the west!"
"Is it that noble family's private army?"
"No, it's not a private army, it's a rebel army!"
"What!?"
Li Rang was shocked when he heard that they were rebels.
This is impossible. According to the itinerary, the rebels will not be able to catch up here until two days at the earliest. Why do they appear now?
But he knew that they did not go to the capital from the beginning, but went straight here, saving a lot of distance in the middle.
At this time, Li Rang could not allow him to think too much and directly ordered to board the ship.
Now that his life was at stake, he could no longer care about the gold and silver treasures that had not yet been loaded onto the ship.
Just as the large troops were about to board the ship, they saw the rebel cavalry from afar arriving first.
The other party seemed to know the location of their temporary command center and came straight to the emperor's headquarters.
At this time, the emperor, Li Rang, the uncle of the state, Concubine Su, and other nobles were all here. They were shocked when they saw the rebels coming to kill them.
The emperor, who only cares about beauty, finally panicked after seeing the rebels coming with his own eyes, and finally realized how terrifying the rebels who had only appeared in everyone's mouth and never seen them were.
Li Rang immediately arranged for the imperial army to fight, and at the same time only led a small team to board the ship, leaving the large army behind.
Yes, for this plan, the only way they can hope to escape is by throwing away the large army and escaping by speedboat.
Just as he was about to get on the boat, he suddenly saw a black shadow appear under the water. The black shadow knocked a boat out of the water, causing water to enter the hull and sinking quickly.
The black shadow under the water kept crashing and sinking ships, and its mysterious and terrifying image immediately frightened a group of people on the shore.
"Monsters, there are monsters in the water!"
Everyone never expected that at this time, monsters would appear from the bottom of the water.
It was true that the house was leaking, but it rained all night, and the broken boat was hit by a strong wind.
"Go north, quickly, go north!"
Knowing that there were monsters in the water, at this time, even if they had more courage, they would not dare to escape by boat.
Under the cover of the Forbidden Army, a group of people headed north along the coast.
The combat effectiveness of the Forbidden Army was extraordinary after all. Even when facing rebels whose numbers were far greater than their own, they could still stop them and continued their march north.
As the shouts of killing from both sides became farther and farther away, it became quiet here.
At this time, this area was extremely quiet, with no one around.
The next moment, the lake water was seen churning, and a huge loach the size of a boat jumped out of the water and fell to the ground.
The loach's body was covered in ulcers, bleeding, and screaming in pain.
After landing, it quickly shrunk and finally turned into a man in black.
At this time, the man's whole body was full of ulcers, his bones and tendons were broken, and there was a sign that his whole body would turn into mud.
This person is none other than Lord Heihe Shui.
"Save me, save me quickly!"
Lord Heihe screamed miserably for help.
The water surface became turbulent again, and Ye Ming and his daughter emerged from it.
Ye Ming didn't say anything, and Maisui took the initiative to step forward and put his hand on Heihe Suijun's forehead. Powerful doomsday waves began to activate, offsetting the force that caused Heihe Suijun's body to collapse.
The force that caused Heihe Shuijun's body to decay was none other than the current national destiny of Xu State.
As for why Heihe Shuijun suffered a backlash from the fate of the country, it was naturally because of his actions of destroying ships.
Just kidding, he destroyed the ship, but it cut off the future of the current emperor and all the nobles. If he is not counterattacked by the fate of the country, who will be counterattacked?
Not being turned into mud by the power of national destiny for a moment is already a result of extremely good luck.
Firstly, it is because now that Xu’s national power is weak and its national destiny is stronger than when it was strong, it only has one-tenth of its strength;
Secondly, the rebels’ chaotic destiny is impacting the shaky national destiny, sharing most of the destiny pressure;
Thirdly, after all, Heihe Suijun attacked the ship, not the emperor or the nobles themselves, so the target he received was only indirect;
Fourthly, Heihe Shuijun is a local water lord. He belongs to a righteous god. He is protected by a divine position and incense, which can alleviate some of the backlash of national destiny.
Under such multiple factors, Heihe Shuijun could barely save his life.
Even so, if there was no Maisui to help him resolve the backlash of the national destiny, he would still turn into mud within a moment or three.
Seeing the miserable situation of Heihe Shuijun, Ye Ming was very glad that he allowed him to make the first decision.
If it weren't for him, I'm afraid he would be the one who suffered the big loss.
It took half an hour to resolve it, and Maisui was so tired that he was sweating, and finally the force that had eroded the national destiny of Heihe Suijun was offset.
Feeling that his body was no longer deteriorating, Kurokawa Suijun lay down on the ground, looked up at the sky, and let out a long breath:
"It scares me to death, the backlash of this national destiny is too scary~~
I knew that the thing I promised to help you with would never be easy. "
Ye Ming looked at the embarrassed Heihe Shuijun, threw a booklet, hit him in the face, turned around and pulled Maisui away, and said casually:
"This is for you."
After being slapped in the face like this, Heihe Shuijun was still a little angry, but after seeing the contents of this booklet, his anger immediately turned into joy.
What Ye Ming gave him was none other than the fragment of "The Art of Dragon Ascension" that was used for gambling at the Northern Aquatic Tribe Conference.
Although it is only a fragment of the scroll, it is undoubtedly a priceless treasure for Heihe Shuijun.
Obtaining such a treasure made him feel that his hard work was not in vain.
Moreover, when I think about it, what I did today can be said to have changed history.
In the future history books, today's events will inevitably be recorded. To some extent, I have achieved "leaving a name in history."
Thinking of this, Lord Heihe couldn't help but feel a little pleased.
Once his name is left in history and known to many human races, he will surely enjoy more sacrifices.
Need I say more about the benefits?
...
The imperial army and the rebels retreated while fighting, until they retreated to a large mountain in the north.
This mountain is called Yuejun Mountain, and it is a notoriously dangerous place in Puzhou, a representative place of barren mountains and harsh waters.
The reason why it is called Yunjun Mountain is because in the past, a king was exiled by his son who usurped the throne and starved to death in the mountain.
After a lapse of thousands of years, another human emperor was forced to enter the Meteor Lord Mountain.
This time, it is not the deposed king who has left the throne, but the reigning emperor of a country.
The emperor never expected that the rebels, whom he had never cared about, would push him to such a point. In order to escape into the mountains smoothly, he even lost his emperor's chariot.
He was carried up the mountain on a stretcher by two eunuchs who were highly skilled in martial arts.
Along the way, countless useless eunuchs, maids, attendants, etc. were left behind, and the rest were those who had some ability to save their lives.
The emperor watched many concubines being abandoned, some were killed on the spot by the rebels, and some were captured, which made him extremely heartbroken.
The only good thing is that Concubine Su is still here and she is fine!
Concubine Su was a dancer by trade and had good physical fitness. She actually followed the retreating team.
At this time, everyone was trapped on an unknown hill by the rebels.
The mountain is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and there is only one way up the mountain. It is firmly guarded by the imperial guards and the rebels cannot get up.
But this is not a good thing, because the mountains are bare, there are no trees, and there is no water source, let alone food.
Along the way, all food and treasures were lost.
Now a group of people's stomachs are growling and they don't have anything to eat.
Our delicate Emperor and all the nobles have never gone hungry. They can bear this and are clamoring for food.
Seeing this, Li Rang knew that he had to stabilize the emperor at this time in order to stabilize the morale of the army.
He immediately ordered two eunuchs to take an injured palace maid down.
Soon, the emperor and a group of nobles had a meal of meat...
There is a mountain opposite this mountain, and Ye Ming is observing the opposite side.
"Hey, what happened on the other side? Why did the emperor and the nobles' luck suddenly become so weak?"
Facing this sudden situation, Ye Ming felt very strange.
"Is there civil unrest? It doesn't look like it~~"
Soon, Ye Ming discovered that the overall luck of the Forbidden Army was also declining.
At the same time, a ferocious aura emerged.
Such a change in luck made Ye Ming unable to figure out what was going on.
But he knew that these people must have done something very harmful to the fate of the country, otherwise it would not be like this.
He was quite happy about it. The more the other party made trouble, the better it would be for him. Now he could just continue to watch.
At the foot of the mountain, the rebels who surrounded the mountain but refused to attack did not bring much food.
But they had the food left behind by the other party, and they could go to surrounding prefectures and counties to grab food, so they didn't need to eat any "special" military rations.
The rebels obviously didn't intend to drag it out for long. After all, they were rebels and a small force.
Once the surrounding prefectures and counties knew that the emperor was trapped, they would definitely come to help in large numbers, and the situation would be unfavorable to them.
Therefore, after burying pots to make rice and resting for a night, the rebels who had recovered their strength launched an attack.
It's just that this mountain is difficult to defend and difficult to attack. It's best to encircle it rather than attack it. A strong attack is really difficult to achieve.
Just when the defenders on the mountain thought they could wait for reinforcements from surrounding counties, they saw one of the rebels walking out.
I only saw this person:
Wearing a strange silver iron crown on his head and a chaotic cloak on his shoulders,
He wears chainmail on his chest and leather boots on his feet.
His body is majestic and tall, and his natural power is boundless.
The face has its own evil spirit, and the gods and ghosts are in trouble, soaring to the sky.
It is none other than the number one general in the world today, Lu Qingxu!
