Five hundred and five chapters exquisite courage
Hearing the words of the Black King, the Great Witch became nervous: "How could this happen?"
Black King: "The mountain horse said that on the mountain outside the valley, the mountains and fields are full of the roots of mountain monsters. But a few days ago, Ada told me that the roots of mountain monsters were only spread over the abdomen of mountain monsters. At that time, Ada wanted to burn the mountain monster with a fire, but I did not adopt his suggestion. Unexpectedly, the mountain monster had occupied the entire mountain in a few days."
The great witch pondered for a moment and asked the Black King: "Is the king who asked Ada and A San to go to the mountain to monitor the mountain monster?"
The Black King sighed and nodded again: "I originally only let Ada go, but I didn't expect him to take A San with me."
"Oh, poor uncle, all the children are dead. I hope the mountain horse can survive," the great witch sighed: "In the eyes of the king, when will the mountain demon's roots spread to the village?"
The Black King shook his head: "I can't calculate it, but I think it won't take too long."
While he said, he handed over the rolled animal skin to the Great Witch, and said, "The Great Witch will leave tomorrow morning. During the day, the power of the mountain demon will be weaker. At that time, you rely on your own witchcraft and may be able to walk out of the mountain pass. I will send the best warrior to escort you."
"I don't need escorts," the great witch took the animal skin scroll and said to the Black King: "Those young people will die when they go. As long as it is during the day, I will definitely walk out of the mountain pass."
The Black King hesitated for a moment and finally nodded.
The great witch left, and the Black King fell into silence for a long time. He lay on the ground covered with thick animal skins, looking at the roof, not knowing what he was thinking.
After a while, he got up from the ground again and paced anxiously in the room.
I had a premonition that it seemed that the Black King would make a decision soon, but it would be very difficult for him to make this decision.
After about half an hour, the Black King quickly let out a breath and walked to the corner of the house. He moved the whole bundle of the bundles away. I saw a small metal box under the skin, with seals stuck on it.
The Black King tore off the seal and opened the box. He saw a stacked animal skin in the box, and a very delicate small leather bag. The Black King unfolded the animal skin and stared at the words written on it and became stunned.
Liang Houzai stood behind him and stared at the contents on the animal skin. I saw Liang Houzai's brows gradually becoming tight, and I couldn't help but ask him in a low voice: "What's wrong?"
Liang Houzai also approached me and said to me in a low voice: "The Black King had known that this would happen one day. A prophecy was written on the animal skin, which might have been written by King Yelang. It said that the holy tree would gradually wither at the beginning of the war and completely withered on the eve of the end of the war. The reason why the Black King became a civilian who guarded the Dazhai was because he was the only one who could use a magical tool to prosper the life of the Holy Tree. The above also said that if the holy tree withered, the people in the Dazhai would not survive, and the Black King had to choose between the holy tree and the village people."
Liang Houzai was talking here, and the Black King opened the leather bag and took out a pair of things similar to Yin and Yang fish. They were two orbs with a black and white appearance, one with a hazy halo, and one with a black one was coiled over it with a faint black air.
I think this is probably the "magic weapon" that Liang Houzai mentioned.
Liang Houzai also became very surprised when he saw that thing. He said to me: "This is a magical weapon that has been lost to Yelang Kingdom for many years. It is also an evil weapon called Linglong gall. It has two parts: one positive and one negative. In the words of later generations, it is one yin and one yang. The book my master gave me said that as long as the Linglong gall is used properly, it can be used to change life in another world."
Change your destiny another day? I don’t know what these four words in Liang Houzai’s mouth mean, but I think it’s not reliable to change your destiny by relying on magic and magic tools.
The Black King picked up the black "water drop" and placed it in front of his nose and sniffed it. I felt like he was going to eat this thing, but he couldn't make up his mind for a while.
The Black King stood up with a piece of exquisite gut in one hand, and wandered around the room.
He walked around the room twice, and suddenly a "very rumble" sound came from outside the window. The Black King turned around and looked at the window. We also looked over with him, but there was nothing outside the window. The rumble stopped abruptly when he turned his head.
The Black King hesitated for a moment, and finally walked to the window and stretched out the upper body to look out of the window.
He probably didn't notice any problem, and then retracted his body into the room, turned around and walked towards the box where the erotic courage was placed.
But just as he turned his back to the window, a figure suddenly rushed to the window.
It was the old man who was picked up by a mountain horse and he had already changed into local costumes. His movements were very light and quickly, and the Black King did not notice them at all.
After he entered the house, he quickly approached the Black King. The Black King probably felt the wind behind him. Just as he was about to turn his head, the old man suddenly took action and grabbed the Black King's neck.
This caught the Black King off guard, and the old man was incredible, so he pressed the Black King tightly to the ground on the spot.
The Black King wanted to struggle, but he was no match for the old man at all. He tried to twist his body and kept attacking the old man's face with his fists. But the old man was as flexible as a snake. The Black King punched him several times in a row without hitting him.
Gradually, the Black King became weak due to lack of oxygen. He used his last strength to try to open the palm that was buckled against his neck, but he failed and became increasingly weak, but his body was still struggling randomly under the instinctive drive.
When I thought the Black King was about to die, the old man picked up the black exquisite gallbladder, aimed the sharp part similar to the tail of the water droplet at the Black King's chest, and pushed hard.
The delicate gall pierced directly into the Black King's chest. The Black King's expression at that moment was extremely painful. He couldn't scream, and only an inaudible "hiss" sound came from his stuck throat.
A moment later, a faint black appeared on the Black King's forehead. The old man then let go of his neck. He picked up the white exquisite gut and quickly escaped from the window.
The Black King was already in a semi-coma state. He lay on the ground like a dead person, but his eyes widened. Not long after, accompanied by a violent cough, the Black King sat up with his hands on the ground.
At this time, I felt that some changes seemed to have occurred in him. His eyes were no longer gentle and hesitant, but instead became very firm and very radical.
The Black King stood up with the wall and gasped heavily. His eyes fell on the metal box that was full of exquisite courage, and then he frowned tightly.
He seemed to have forgotten what had just happened, and his eyes were full of doubts. After a moment, he rubbed his neck while squatting down and picked up the animal skin with the prophecy. When he saw the words on the animal skin, the Black King seemed very surprised, as if it was the first time he saw this prophecy.
I really can't understand why he became like this. He was almost killed just now, but after walking through the edge of life and death, he seemed to have become a different person.
At this time, the Black King put the animal skin back into the box. He raised his head, looked out the window and pondered something, and placed his hand on his chest that was tied with Lingqingqi.
I thought he remembered what had just happened, but what I didn't expect was that he suddenly exerted force, causing Linglongdan to sink into his chest. What's even more strange is that during the process of Linglongdan pushing the wound on his chest bigger and bigger, and finally sank into his chest, the Black King did not shed a drop of blood.
He put the metal box back into the corner, covered it with a large bundle of animal skin, and then hurriedly left the stone house.
We went out with him, followed him through the village and came to the wall.
It was already afternoon, and the sun was setting in the west, but the sun was still hot. The Black King's eyes were very afraid of light. He walked forward while covering his eyes with his right hand.
Several soldiers wearing rattan armor walked past him and greeted him respectfully, but he ignored him and continued to walk quickly.
On both sides of the village gate, there are two small pavilions built of wood and covered with hay. I guess their purpose should be similar to that of the Arrow Tower in later generations.
The Black King quickly walked into one of the pavilions, which also had a soldier who was not wearing vine armor. As soon as he saw the Black King, he quickly came up to meet him.
The Black King glanced around the pavilion and asked the man who was not wearing vine armor: "Where is Zuo Gui?"
The man immediately responded: "He has gone outside the village."
Black King: "Come him back, hurry!"
Although these soldiers seemed very free and casual in front of the Black King, they took action very quickly after the Black King's orders. Several people left the pavilion together, slid down the village wall along the thick hemp ropes tied to the pavilion pillars, and ran straight towards the village far away from the Dazhai.
When we came yesterday, we didn’t see the village, but at this moment, a huge village appeared in the sun. It was located on the mountainside on the west side of Dazhai. When I stood on the wall of the village, I could vaguely see the villagers walking on the village road.
The Black King left the pavilion and quickly came to a wooden house on the east side of the village. This was an ordinary house, no different from other houses in the village. But after the Black King came to the door, he called out: "Great Witch."
The great witch quickly opened the curtain and stretched out her head: "Why is the king here?"
The Black King pointed to the door: "Can you go in now?"
The great witch nodded: "Yes."
I remember when the Great Witch entered the stone house of the Black King, there was neither a notice nor a request. He just went in directly, but the Black King wanted to enter the Great Witch's house, but he needed to ask in advance.
I was suddenly confused, wondering which of the princes or priests who were in the big village had a higher status?
As the Black King entered the residence of the Great Witch, the room was full of things used when performing witchcraft. Liang Houzai was immediately fascinated when he walked in and watched while walking in the room. Occasionally, he would stop and wait and see for a long time when he saw something that was very attractive to him.
Du Kang reminded him not to touch those things, as it may easily reveal his whereabouts.
The Black King glanced around the house for a week, pointed to a coarse bag on the ground and asked the witch: "Are you leaving the village?"
Hearing the Black King's tone, he seemed to have forgotten the fact that he asked the Great Witch to deliver the letter.
The great witch obviously didn't hear the Black King's meaning and responded: "I'll leave tomorrow, and there are still some things to prepare. When all of them are done, I'm afraid it will be dark."
The Black King was silent for a moment before saying to the Great Witch: "Great Witch, please pray for my army."
The great witch stared at the Black King with wide eyes: "You want to mobilize the army?"
Black King: "I want to attack the mountain monster."
Great Witch: "But even if you find the mountain demon, how can you deal with it?"
The Black King smiled: "I have found a way to eradicate it. Great Witch, please pray for my army."
