Dragon Pattern Roll Set

Zhan Zhao and others followed the sand ghost into the dense forest.

The woods in this area are smaller than the woods where the wolves gather, and there are dead bushes inside, and there is a decaying smell when you walk in.

However, the trees here are sparse and there is no sunshine all year round.

Everyone followed into the forest and began to wonder—this forest is so abandoned that even wolves can't even look down on it. The messenger of the sand ghost is also something shameful, right?

Just when he was wondering, he saw the sand ghost stopped, and everyone hurriedly looked for tree trunks to hide.

It was noon at this time, and it should be the time when the sun was most abundant. The temperature difference between day and night in the desert was large, and it was often dry and hot at this time of day, but it was cold and humid here.

After the sand ghost stopped, he stood on the spot, kicked away a few sections of rotten wood, and pulled away some soil, finally, he opened an iron plate under the soil.

Everyone raised their eyebrows—oh? !It turned out to be authentic!

Sand ghost got into the tunnel.

Everyone came out from behind the bushes and looked at the entrance of the tunnel.

They looked at each other, what does that mean - can't go down?

Bai Yutang was still going to jump off first, when Zhan Zhao whispered in his ear, "Maybe there are bugs."

Bai Yutang froze, looking at Zhan Zhao.

Yin Hou sighed helplessly, his grandson was also free, and bothered Bai Yutang when he had nothing to do.The same goes for Bai Yutang, who can do anything to anyone but Zhan Zhao.

"Go down first for the teacher!" Tianzun wanted to jump down, but Bai Yutang grabbed him.

"I'll go down first!" Zhao Pu wanted to jump down, but Ouyang and Zou Liang grabbed him.

Lin Yehuo couldn't stand it anymore, and said helplessly, "If you continue to make trouble with that sand ghost, you will run away!"

Everyone looked at him together.

Zou Liang shook his head, jumped down the tunnel first, Lin Yehuo followed, and finally everyone jumped down too.

After entering the tunnel, I found that it was just a very ordinary passage, and there was light in front, which seemed to have an exit.

Everyone looked at each other.

Zhao Pu thought for a while, "The terrain around here is quite complicated, is it hidden in some ravine?"

So everyone ran over quickly, and sure enough, after turning the corner, they saw an exit.

Through the exit, I saw a steep hillside outside. The sand ghost had already exited the tunnel and was walking halfway up the opposite hillside. There was a cave on the hillside.

The sand ghost crawled to the entrance of the cave and went in.

When everyone came out of the cave, they found that they were in a mountain depression.It's just that there are no shrubs near the col, only dry and cracked ocher rocks.

Ouyang thought for a while, "It should be in the ravine area. There are many hollowed-out stone-like barren hills around here, which are rarely visited by people."

When everyone arrived at the hillside, they found traces of artificially excavated steps, but the workmanship was very rough, and it seemed that the age seemed to be very old.

After going up the mountain easily and turning into the cave, I found that the inside is very wide, with a large steep slope leading to the bottom.

Zou Liang still took the lead, because Zhan Zhao threatened Bai Yutang that there might be a big spider. Bai Yutang had the urge to shut Zhan Zhao's mouth, but he still couldn't bear the thought of spiders, and Fifth Master would rather walk behind.

After descending the steep slope, the environment became more humid. A simple wooden bridge was built over a ditch. When everyone passed the bridge, they heard a sound.

When I listened to it, it seemed to be a voice, but I couldn't hear it clearly, it felt like a ghost crying.

Zou Liang looked at Lin Yehuo, and Lin Yehuo pouted, which meant - you first!

Zou Liang looked at the sky, but he followed the sound and walked over first.

When I walked to the end of the corridor, I found some stalagmites. There seemed to be some space behind the stalagmites. A faint light came out through the cracks in the wall... According to the shaking of the lights, it should be candlelight.

Everyone raised their eyebrows—why is someone lighting candles here?

"Are you the only one left?"

When he was wondering, a hoarse and old voice came out.

Just listening to the voice without seeing someone makes people think that this person probably won't live long, or has his throat been burned?The sound is too scary.

"Go to the nearby village to find some people, and then catch some cats and feed them to me..."

When these words were uttered in that man's hoarse and weird voice, everyone felt the chills stand on end—how many cats to eat?

Bai Yutang felt someone put his shoulders on his shoulders, and when he turned around, he saw Zhan Zhao hiding behind his shoulders, squinting his eyes and looking disgusted.

At this moment, the sand ghost turned out from behind the stone pillar, and was taken aback when he saw everyone.

But before he could react, Tianzun raised his hand and patted his head lightly... Look again, the sand ghost was frozen into an icicle, Tianzun imitated Wusha, said "Amitabha", and then flicked his sleeves... …

The sand ghost shattered to the ground.

Tianzun smiled and turned back to look at Bai Yutang, which meant to ask - did you do well as a teacher?

Zhan Zhao gave Tianzun a thumbs up from behind Bai Yutang, and the others nodded their heads in admiration, when Bai Yutang suddenly said, "Remember to wash your hands when you go back."

Everyone looked at the sky, Tianzun rushed over and wanted to rub Bai Yutang's face with his hands.

Yin Hou sighed——Tianzun is an old man who doesn't respect him. After bullying his apprentice for decades, he still bullies him!

Yin Hou stretched out his hand to help Bai Yutang pull Tianzun away, walked out of the stone pillar, and when he reached the place with lights, he saw a secret room.

Others also followed in, and the scene in front of them made everyone a little dumbfounded.

The secret room ahead was empty, with simple and tattered furniture, and an old man who was as old as a mummified corpse. To be exact...not one, but half!

The old man's legs were all broken, leaving only the upper body, sitting in a special wheelchair, his skin was gray and dry, his hair was disheveled and dirty, and he looked like a ghost or a ghost.

Everyone was dumbfounded. Could it be that this is the real mastermind behind the Sand Ghost?

The old man looked terrified at this moment, looked at the crowd, "Come here! Come here!"

Everyone thought that he might be calling those sand ghosts, right?It's a pity... the sand ghosts are all dead, even those two-headed snakes are dead.

Zou Yue, who came in after the crowd, suddenly took a few steps up and stared at the old man.

The eyes of both sides met, and the man turned away quickly.

Zou Yue was stunned for a while, then said, "It's you?"

Everyone looked at Zou Yue in surprise.

Zou Liang asked, "Father, do you know him?"

As soon as Zou Liang finished speaking, the old man suddenly turned his head, looked at Zou Liang, then at Zou Yue, and then showed a ferocious face, "You actually have a son? Your wife and children should be dead!"

Zou Liang's eyes turned cold, and Zou Yue lightly pressed his shoulder, signaling him to be calm.

Zhao Pu felt that the environment here was too bad, so he asked the shadow guards to take the old man back to the camp for interrogation.

After the shadow guards took the old man away, everyone went out too, but Zhan Zhao stood where he was, as if he was looking for something in the secret room.

Bai Yutang asked, "What are you looking for?"

"Spider." Zhan Zhao replied.

Bai Yutang reached out and grabbed Zhan Zhao's neck, and looked around by the way—there should be no spiders.

Zhan Zhao continued to look around.

Seeing that the two did not leave, Yin Hou grabbed Tianzun who was about to run out, and asked Zhan Zhao, "What are you looking for?"

Zhan Zhao rummaged through the box and said, "When I was having breakfast this morning, the fourth son said that I have good fortune today."

"Fortune?" Bai Yutang was puzzled.

At this time, Zhan Zhao knocked on the wall when he was removing a box, and the sound was muffled.

Everyone glanced at the wall subconsciously—is there something inside?

Zhan Zhao pulled out the giant que, slammed it against the wall, swept his sword obliquely, and then yanked the wall...

With a "boom", the wall collapsed, and the wall skin and broken bricks were scattered all over the floor, but when they looked at the things behind the wall, everyone was dumbfounded...

I saw golden bricks all over the wall.

Zhan Zhao knocked down the wall, and finally... the golden brick wall appeared in front of everyone.

Bai Yutang glanced at it and reported, "10 taels of gold."

Everyone was stunned.

Zhao Pu picked out his ears, "How much?"

Bai Yutang replied, "10 taels."

Tianzun touched his chin, "Whoever finds it belongs to whom?"

Yin Hou dragged Tianzun out by the collar of his clothes without saying a word, so as not to make trouble for him.

Zou Yue froze in place, staring at the golden brick wall for a long time, and finally sighed, "So it's for these."

No one else understood.

Lin Yehuo, no matter how big or small, put his arm on Zou Yue's shoulder, "My sister is godfather, do you know where these things come from?"

Zou Yue nodded, walked over, stretched out his hand and pulled out a gold brick from the wall, and showed it to everyone. On the top of the gold brick, there was a "Zhao" character, and he was turning it over. On the bottom of the gold brick, there was a seal mark Seal, in a circle, a word "Pay".

Everyone was stunned.

Zhao Pu was surprised, "This is military pay!"

Zou Yue sighed, "Back then we all thought that we would fight the Liao Kingdom, so the imperial court allocated a ratio of military pay. Because of the huge number, my soldiers and horses were transferred to Xilu, the purpose is to protect this batch of military pay."

"That batch of military pay is here, does that mean it was robbed that year?" Zhao Pu asked.

Zou Yue nodded, "It should be... For so many years, I have been unable to figure out why I saw the ghost town so coincidentally, not to mention the ruins of my family, and the death of nearly a hundred thousand brothers. Now that I think about it... it turned out that it was just for money!"

Everyone looked at each other, seeing Zou Yue feeling a little sad, Zhao Pu winked at Zou Liang, and Zou Liang and Lin Yehuo went out first with Zou Yue.

Zhan Zhao looked at the gold on the wall, "I've never heard of losing so much military pay."

Zhao Pu said, "It should be kept secret. If the news gets out, it will shake the morale of the army and may cause unnecessary trouble. Anyway, my Song Dynasty doesn't have many other things, it's just a lot of money... for a few gold pieces, I made this Heaps of shit, so many people died, and Zou Yue lived in the sea of ​​ghosts for 20 years to find out the truth, it's really not worth it..."

Zhao Pu arranged for the shadow guards to bring people to dig for gold, while the others returned to the barracks.

Zou Yue's mood had calmed down at this time, and he told everyone that the old man was a low-level general who was originally stationed at Xilu.At that time, he and several other teams were responsible for guarding the gold, waiting for his army to arrive and take over.

After hearing this, everyone understood—it turned out to be a prisoner stealing himself.

Zou Yue told everyone that this man was called Shi Fang, and he joined the army almost at the same time.He became a general all the way, but in the end he was just a low-level general who was paid by the army.There was some hatred between the two when they were young.Shi Fang's hands and feet are very dirty, he is a little clever, but he has no sense of responsibility.When he first entered the barracks, both he and Zou Yue were appreciated, and soon became commanders.Once they were in charge of guarding a city, Shi Fang went to gamble and let the soldiers guard it, thinking that nothing would happen anyway.

But suddenly there was an enemy sneak attack that day, and Zou Yue led his men to fight hard, defeating more with less, and saved the city.

By such a coincidence, the general of the Song Army was also in the city that day, and Zou Yue made great contributions and was rewarded heavily.However, Shi Fang left his post without authorization and was severely punished. In addition to being demoted, he was also fined twenty military sticks.

The person who executed Shi Fang was a soldier under Zou Yue.

The soldier's brother was originally in Shi Fang's army, and the two joined the army together. He followed Zou Yue and was safe and sound, but something happened to the brother who followed Shi Fang.Because Shi Fang left his post without permission, several soldiers died under his command, including the soldier's younger brother.The soldier harbored hatred, and during the execution, Shi Fang's leg was broken, which was the root cause of his illness.

Since then, Shi Fang's official career has not been smooth, he has been unable to get promoted, and his health is getting worse and worse, his legs and feet are getting worse day by day.

However, Zou Yue was promoted all the way to the rank of general, commanding a hundred thousand soldiers and horses, and was supported by everyone.

Shi Fang has always been worried about this, and the soldiers who executed him were under Zou Yue, so he always believed that Zou Yue instructed him.

Zou Yue knew that he hated himself, but he himself didn't appreciate Shi Fang's behavior.Zou Yue is upright and feels that people like Shi Fang are not qualified to be soldiers at all.As a commander, leaving his post without authorization is tantamount to putting his brother to death. This is a crime that violates military orders and should be executed.

Zou Yue didn't know what happened after that.

And Zhao Pu asked the shadow guards to interrogate Shi Fang and learned the second half of the story.

Shi Fang looked for folk remedies everywhere to treat his foot disease, but there was no good medicine, and his health was getting worse day by day.He heard that snake wine in the wild can heal foot injuries, so he went to the hinterland of the desert to look for snakes.Before he knew it, he walked into the sea of ​​ghosts.

Although Shi Fang may not be very authentic, he has a good brain, and he is proficient in many crooked things.In the sea of ​​ghosts, he discovered the secret of the wind and sand wall, and by mistake, he walked into the stone formation.

There, he found a two-headed snake.

Shi Fang knew some secrets about the two-headed snake, so he killed the big snake and left the eggs. When the little snake hatched, he became the owner of the snake.He got some soldiers from the barracks to try it out, and sure enough, the soldiers who turned into sand ghosts obeyed him.

Shi Fang ordered those sand ghosts to stay in the desert and help him find out the secrets in the desert.

Gradually, he discovered that there are red sand monsters in the sea of ​​ghosts.Sand ghosts have always existed, and the two sides fought fiercely.I don't know who the earlier sand ghosts obeyed, but they were quickly wiped out by the sand monsters.

Shi Fang originally cultivated his own sand ghost clan, just for the convenience of life and for future use.Until one day, a large amount of military pay arrived.

Shi Fang had no intention of joining the army back then, so he came up with the idea of ​​10 taels of gold for the military salary.

Such a coincidence, the day Zou Yue led the troops to transfer was a calm day. Shi Fang knew that the Lost City should appear at night, so he thought it was God's will, so he let the sand ghosts lie in ambush inside and attack the people Zou Yue brought...

Everything went smoothly, Shi Fang still felt that he killed Zou Yue and his wife and children, and took revenge.

But in the end, when he successfully stole the military salary and escaped, his legs got sick. In order to save his life, the doctor saw off his two legs.

Although Shi Fang got countless gold and silver, he lost his legs, and the military pay was marked, if he took it out and used it, he might be investigated and dealt with and lost his life at that time.He also heard from Sand Ghost that Zou Yue is not dead.

The hatred in Shi Fang's heart was hard to subdue, and he wanted Zou Yue's life, so...he found a hidden valley to stay temporarily, and wanted to kill Zou Yue first, and then go out with Jin Zi after the limelight passed.

But who knows that God's will will trick people, Shi Fang guarded 10 taels of gold and lived a life of neither human nor ghost in the deep mountains, and sent a large number of sand ghosts to kill Zou Yue.Unexpectedly, Zou Yue teamed up with the Sand Demon Clan and couldn't kill him no matter what, and even killed almost all the Sand Demons under him.

Shi Fang was also on the edge of his horn, and insisted on Zou Yue's death, so... it took more than 20 years.Shi Fang has limited mobility and needs sand ghosts to take care of him for eating and drinking. He is living the worst life.

For more than 20 years, the outside world has changed dynasties. Shi Fang, who wanted to wait for the limelight to pass, ushered in the Zhao Pu era in Black Wind City.Zhao Jiajun is stronger than the Song Army back then. It’s not 01:30. If you go out with the military salary at this time, you will still be arrested.

Originally, he was counting the days, and there will be no wind again recently, and his sand ghosts are about to die, so he plans to repeat the old trick, the best way is to introduce more people from Guihai to become sand ghosts, so that he can make a comeback , That's why this series of incidents happened, and he sent people to release those news.

Before the sand ghost planned to bury Zhan Zhao and the others alive, it was Shi Fang's ghost idea.Shi Fang has already figured out the ghost sea. Of course, he didn't touch it himself, but the sand ghost told him after he understood the terrain.

After Zou Liang and Lin Yehuo learned the whole truth, they were going to skin the old man alive, but Zhao Pu didn't let them do it.At that time, the Song army suffered heavy losses, and Zhao Pu wanted to deal with Shi Fang by military law, so as to comfort the spirits of the soldiers in heaven.

With the rectification of Shifang, this ghost sea lost city lost that layer of mystery.

Lin Yehuo took everyone from the Sand Demon Clan to Devil City, and Zhao Pu brought all the remaining Song troops back to Heifeng City.

Ouyang Shaozheng and Long Qiaoguang led the people and blew up the Lost City.

When the Lost City was blown up, it was really earth-shattering. The power of tens of thousands of thunderbolts exploding at the same time shook the entire Sha Mou.

Many people from Liao and Xixia said that Zhao Pu was crazy after watching, but with the collapse of the Lost City, the Sea of ​​Ghosts is no longer a dangerous place.

Zhao Pu recruited craftsmen, and with the help of the Sand Monster Clan, he marked the location of the quicksand pit and built the official road on a safe road... This greatly shortened the road for merchants to travel, and saved the trouble of bypassing the ghost sea.

After this turmoil, everyone has gained something.Zou Liang recovered his father, Lin Yehuo recovered his sister and a large group of relatives, and Song Jun recovered 10 taels of gold.But the most bizarre thing is Bai Yutang, Wu Ye went around to the west and got a dragon back.
