In a deserted inn, the sound of snoring is thunderous. Ten people slept together, and their feet stinked to the sky.
"Squeak..."
The door of Datongpu was slowly opened a narrow crack, and with the cold wind rushing into the room, five skinny figures squeezed in.
The one at the head has a face as white as frost and lips as red as blood. Among the facial features, there is only one eye, which is the strangest among the facial features. It grows right between the eyebrows, and there seems to be light between the opening and closing.
The four at the back didn't even have an eye, so they could only put their hands on the shoulders of the one in front and move forward in a string.
In short, these five ghost things share one eye, which looks weird and somewhat funny.
After the last one entered the room, the four without eyes became impatient. They sniffed with their noses and groped with their hands. They all came to the edge of the Datong bunk and surrounded the unlucky one sleeping next to the door. Egg.
They put their noses close to the person, trying to inhale.
"Wait! Let me see first!"
The leading one-eyed ghost shouted lowly, squeezed into the circle of four eyeless ghosts and looked down.
I saw that the unlucky guy sleeping next to the door was a boy of sixteen or seventeen years old. His facial features were straight and his complexion was slightly dark. When the cold moon outside the door shined, it revealed a warm and moist luster like topaz.
Even though this young man was sleeping, there was still a hint of solemnity lingering in his eyebrows. At first glance, he was a man of upright temperament and extremely well-behaved.
The one-eyed ghost looked at it for a few moments and then shook his head: "This is a kind man, you can't eat it!"
The four eyeless ghosts were a little disappointed when they heard this. Fortunately, there were a lot of people in the room. They didn't say anything at the moment and just gathered around the person next to the young man.
This man is a man with a sinewy face. Even if he is covered with a quilt, you can see that he has a majestic body and taut muscles. This man snores the loudest on the entire Datong bunk.
Surrounded by four eyeless ghosts, the man seemed to feel short of breath. He stretched out a big hand from the quilt and waved it a few times as if to shoo away flies.
Snapped! Bang bang! Bang bang bang!
These eyeless ghosts got really close, and three of the four got slapped in the face.
Faced with this sudden change, the five ghosts were shocked and angry, and they all tried to pounce, but they saw the man muttering something unknown, scratching the flesh on his face, turning over and snoring loudly again. , it was actually a bit louder than before.
The four eyeless ghosts couldn't help but feel angry. They were about to explode, but the one-eyed ghost stopped them with their arms.
"This is a big evil, you can't eat it!"
The four eyeless ghosts seemed to be convinced by the one-eyed ghost's judgment, so they had no choice but to surround the third one.
This person's sleeping posture is somewhat unique, he actually sleeps on his stomach.
The left side of his face was lying on the pillow, and there was a striking scar on the right side of his face, which almost cut through his right eye. He looked even more sinister than the evil man next to him.
This time the one-eyed ghost pondered for a longer time. After a moment, he slowly shook his head and said, "This is a very lucky person, and he can't eat it!"
The four eyeless ghosts finally became restless, patting their withered bellies and complaining: "The good people can't eat it, the evil people can't eat it, and the lucky ones can't eat it! If this and that taboo are always taboo, let's take a look at it. The five brothers are going to starve to death!"
"Why are you so anxious! You won't die if you starve for two meals. It's the big karma that really kills you!"
The one-eyed ghost looked angry, scolded a few words in a low voice, and then pointed to the side: "And aren't there seven more!"
As it spoke, it turned to look at the fourth person, and saw another young man. He was tall and had long legs, and his appearance could be called heroic.
The one-eyed ghost looked at it with the one eye between his eyebrows for a long time, and finally nodded slightly hesitantly: "This one doesn't seem to be good or evil, and it doesn't look like he has any great fortune, so he should be able to eat it! Just...how does it smell? Does it smell like rotten wood?"
Hearing this, the four eyeless ghosts were overjoyed: "As long as we can eat it! We are already so hungry that our chests are touching our backs. How can we care about whether it smells good or not?"
While he was talking, they had gathered around him and put their noses close to the young man's cheek and inhaled hard.
But the one-eyed ghost was obviously unwilling to be hungry, so he immediately stepped aside and looked at the fifth person.
"Huh?"
It doesn't matter if you don't look at it, but you will be shocked when you look at it. The appearance of this fifth person is actually very different from the fourth one!
The one-eyed ghost glanced subconsciously, and his breathing suddenly stopped. From the fourth person to the tenth person, they all seemed to be carved from the same mold.
"Is it possible that, similar to our 'Five Brothers with One Eye', they are actually septuplets?"
The one-eyed ghost just had this idea in his mind. The boy who was being sucked by the four eyeless ghosts suddenly became furious. He actually pulled out a big golden-hooked stick from nowhere, rounded it up and smashed it hard.
His face was sweaty and shiny, covered with the saliva of the four eyeless ghosts. His expression was extremely ugly, so he was extremely ruthless when he struck, targeting the foul mouths of the eyeless ghosts and greeting them vigorously.
The other nine people on the Datong bunk followed closely behind, lifting their quilts and standing up.
The three people at the front were not in a hurry to take action, but the six at the back had the same hatred and hatred. Each of them held a golden cudgel and a big stick, surrounded the five brothers and beat them up: "Who are you calling rotten wood? "
"Oh, my captain thought he was some kind of extravagant demon. I didn't expect him to be so incompetent. I just know a little bit about fortune telling by looking at people's physiognomy."
The good boy lost interest in taking action personally and turned to look at the evil man on the side with a very playful expression: "What do you think of the evil man Li?"
The man's face trembled, and he smiled a little awkwardly: "My lord, you must be aware that these ghost talks cannot be taken seriously, but don't let them deceive you!"
"oh?"
The corners of the young man's mouth turned upward: "So, Li Yingwei thinks that Qi is actually not a kind person?"
"This...it's whatever the captain says! I, Li Shenxian, just obey orders!"
The Bazhou tiger laughed loudly, shut his mouth tightly and did not speak again.
Over the past few days, he has gotten to know a lot about this captain. His heart is really upright, his mouth is really poisonous, and his hands are really dark!
In particular, Li Shenxian, who has been exposed to the Bazhou military style since he was a child, has always been very strict with his subordinates, even treating them as private soldiers and not allowing others to get involved. This will undoubtedly arouse the disgust and even hostility of his superiors.
It just so happened that the captain was very generous. As long as the Shengsheng Battalion became more rigorous and capable day by day under his command, Li Shenxian, and could always abide by their duties, abide by military disciplines, and complete military orders without compromise, he would not care about other matters.
Well, the most important thing is not to violate military discipline or disobey military orders, otherwise the seven big sticks of the Jiahub team will not recognize anyone.
At first, Li Shenxian was secretly happy because of the surprise, and even felt a little embarrassed to express his gratitude.
But gradually, he couldn't be happy anymore.
Just because the captain suddenly developed a bad habit, he always likes to tease him in public no matter what happens, as if there is a deep friendship between the two.
Especially every time after doing this, the captain would issue several military orders directly to the hundred cavalry commanders and captains of the Shesheng Battalion, intentionally or unintentionally. They were usually innocuous and difficult to refuse. Little things.
This made Li Shenxian secretly wary, but he was helpless.
But let’s not talk about it. After many such things happened, the military morale of the Shesheng Battalion, especially the one hundred Bazhou crossbowmen, has stabilized a lot, and they are no longer worried all day long, fearing that they will be attacked by the captain at any time. Clean.
Seeing that Li Shenxian once again gave in as a habit, with no sign of injustice on his face, Qi Jingzhi just gave up.
In fact, he does not lack the force to subdue this person, nor does he lack the interest to buy this person, but whether people's hearts will be loyal or not depends entirely on these two things, at least for people like Li Shenxian.
The reason why the young man uses this seemingly boring and weak trick is actually to confirm the insights gained from "Hidden Edge Technique".
This Gongjue is only a thin piece of paper, but it has successively achieved Qi Huchan and Geshu Dashi. It can be said to be a small statement with great meaning, often read and often updated, just like the "name and name" in it.
Many times, things like status are invisible and intangible, but the constraints on people's hearts are real.
There have been several times recently that after teasing Li Shenxian in public, he turned around and passed this person and directly issued some carefully designed military orders to the Shesheng Battalion.
As a result, including the Bazhou crossbowmen, these big bosses took Li Shenxian's silence as acquiescence after just a slight hesitation, and then one followed the other. Eventually, everyone became accustomed to it and subconsciously obeyed the captain. Most of the military orders were issued, instead of first looking at Li Yingwei's face before deciding whether to respond.
Of course, to do this, you don't just need to be able to joke. First of all, you must have a great meaning, and secondly, your words must be sharp and can choke Li Shenxian to the point where he can't speak.
The result is that now when all the soldiers of the Habayashi Guards see the captain, they will inevitably tremble in their hearts. They are afraid that they will miss the point when they answer, or if they are caught with a sore leg, they will definitely get a slap in the face. Well-founded scolded him, and then obediently received the military stick.
After going through all the changes in Yu Linwei in his mind, Qi Jingzhi looked past Li Shenxian and looked at the blessed man.
Tong Jiaohai trembled, stretched out his hand to pat the soft crimson cloth bag around his waist, and said sternly: "Since I joined the school captain, I first got a pair of Qingsi armor that can be passed down to the family, and also I had the honor to pay homage to Duke Lu, and after I went north, I even got this wonderful treasure, which I cultivated with all my strength. If you want to say you are blessed, it is the Colonel who is blessed!"
"You leaked a little bit of it through the cracks of your fingers. If you catch it by luck, you will naturally become a blessed person!"
Look, this is the disadvantage of "defining one's status". All kinds of flattering words come rolling in, and they are all very nice to hear. They can really coax people to feel as high as the sky.
So, the young man glared and snorted, then turned to look at the seven-on-five fighting group under the kang, and ignored this flatterer.
Seeing this, Li Shenxian and Tong Jiaohai quietly exchanged a helpless look, and for a moment they felt like they were in the same boat: "This young man is really difficult to take care of!"
Of course, although the captain is difficult to serve, he is also very generous. He is generous with rare items and techniques, and he can always deliver them to your heart. The two of them have no choice but to continue to endure the humiliation...
The three of them only said a few words and exchanged a few glances, but the four eyeless ghosts were already beaten by the teenagers with broken bones and tendons, and they were lying on the ground dying.
The one-eyed ghost is obviously much more powerful than the four brothers. Although it has a bruised face and tattered clothes, it uses one hand to protect its most precious one eye and cooperates with the other hand when faced with the beatings from seven golden cudgels. Supporting the left and right, it is still standing.
"I didn't expect that I was wrong this time! I didn't realize that the seven of you are not human beings!"
The one-eyed ghost received a few more severe blows, and couldn't help but scream: "We are all born and raised spiritual beings. It's fine if we don't help each other. Why do you want to plot against us, one-eyed and five brothers?"
"Bah! Are you guys worthy of being called spiritual beings? Are you worthy of being compared with your grandfathers?"
Fu Da had long wiped the smelly saliva from his face, and while directing several brothers to attack together, he said disdainfully: "Grandpas are the main soldiers of the country who have officially entered the army of Gouchen, and have long since faded away from the spirit and wildness Damn, why did you ever smell like rotten wood?"
"Besides, the future of our grandpas has long been tied to the captain. You can tell good and evil fortune just by looking at me! Why don't I come and give you a look, um... Grandpa Look, you just need to be dealt with!"
Although these few sentences are reprimanding the one-eyed ghost, they also contain some little thoughts that everyone knows.
Qi Jingzhi laughed dumbly and gave Fu Da an appreciative look.
As we all know, the captain of the Habayashi Guards doesn't like to hear flattery, and his eyes will even burn after hearing too much.
Accordingly, this young man likes to hear the truth.
What Huanda said is the truth.
For such an honest and good boy, it is natural to give great encouragement and serve as an example to some stubborn people.
Looking at the one-eyed ghost again, it was unable to support itself after all. Especially after hearing the word "Gou Chen", it became more and more frightened, so that its left and right arms were cramped and the space was in disarray. A young man with a spoke saw the flaw and stabbed his one eye with a stick. They became the "Five Eyeless Brothers".
"Ah! Kill me!"
The blind one-eyed ghost screamed, covering his forehead with his hands and staggering: "Do you really think that our brothers are easy to bully? If my master is alerted, you will all die!"
"Oh? I wonder who your master is?" Qi Jingzhi was a little surprised when he heard this.
"I'll scare you to death if I tell you. My master is..."
Before the one-eyed ghost finished speaking, he had already turned into a shrill, high-pitched howl, which sounded ten or a hundred times more painful than the previous pain of losing his eyes. It frightened several young people with car spokes for a while.
Under the gaze of everyone, the one-eyed ghost's already torn clothes and nearly exposed back suddenly opened a big golden eye, and shot out a stream of sharp golden light, hitting the golden cudgel of the car-spoke youths. There are shocking small pits left on Qing Si's armor.
The young man with the car's spokes blocking the direction of the window was facing the one-eyed ghost's back, and his body was immediately covered with color. A cut was made on his forehead, and his eyes were immediately blinded by the blood flowing down.
The one-eyed ghost saw an opportunity, broke through the encirclement in one fell swoop, and stumbled away towards the window.
During this period, the big golden eyes on its back were still emitting golden light unbridled, blocking the pursuit of the spoke boys.
At the same time, the one-eyed ghost's body, which was not strong to begin with, became thinner and shrunk visibly to the naked eye.
Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi immediately thought of the two maids of the White Immortal Sect who had been suppressed by the ban. However, the ban imposed by the White Fairy Empress was also for the purpose of silencing her own people, and this big golden eye that opened its eyes to kill people clearly intended to kill both herself and her opponents.
At this moment, the room suddenly became bright and a full moon soared into the sky.
The Mysterious Mirror of Heaven and Earth floated above the young man's head, and his aura fluctuated with unprecedented intensity. Immediately, for the first time, he uttered words in public: "Golden Eyes! Hundred Eyes! Ghost!"
