But no matter how unreasonable, no one in this family dares to question the authority of Young Master Liu, even His Royal Highness King Xiao, who is above ten thousand people, is not very good at it.Liu Xian'an took another look into the barracks and saw that many generals were still sitting in the room, so he asked: "Your Highness hasn't finished handling military affairs yet?"

"A dozen or so mouths, each sticking to their own words, chattering endlessly." Liang Shu said, "Bai Fujiao has released a lot of news about Ten Faces Valley recently."

So much so that almost all the eyeliners and non-eyeliners have received information, and people go to the garrison camp to report the news every day, and once the news is widely spread, it will immediately become "worthless" like the ancient characters carved on the cliff stand up.Bai Fujiao was only short of engraving the words "Ghosts in the Valley of Ten Faces" on his forehead. At such a time, how the Southwest Garrison would respond would be particularly eye-catching.

The generals have their own opinions, some think it was a feint, some think it is provocative, and some think there are ghosts in the forest, but no matter what their opinions are, there is one thing that is surprisingly unified, that is Everyone disapproved of Liang Shu's approaching the dense forest.

Liu Xian'an said: "I don't agree either."

It's such a big piece of deep mountains and old forests, ghosts know what's hidden in it.Even the most powerful general cannot attack blindly without a target, and it is even more impossible to encircle and search the mountains inch by inch. It is estimated that another 5 people will be transferred from outside.

Liang Shu nodded: "Okay, if you don't agree, then I won't fight."

Liu Xian'an saw through it at a glance: "What do you mean I won't fight if I disapprove, and the prince didn't want to fight at first."

Taking advantage of the fact that no one in the barracks was looking this way, Liang Shu kissed his hand: "Who says I don't want to fight, I want to fight, but I'm afraid that if I don't listen to my wife, I will suffer in front of my eyes."

The voice was a bit loud, and it was drifting around with the wind, so that a group of generals next door all looked solemn, watching their noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, noses, and hearts, silently saying "do not look at evil", just pretending that they did not hear about the prince's fear of guilt.When Liang Shu led Liu Xian'an into the barracks, everyone had basically adjusted their attitudes and expressions, and greeted Second Young Master Liu enthusiastically.

The wall was covered with maps, Liu Xian'an scanned around and asked, "Are these the outer areas of the Valley of Ten Faces?"

"Yes." An adjutant replied, "Going deeper, the miasma is too heavy, and there are all kinds of poisonous snakes and insects. The white mist is steaming hot from the sun. Going in in summer is like walking into a huge steamer. There is no need to waste manpower."

Then the problem came, the southwestern garrison couldn't get in, and it didn't make sense for people from the Baifu religion to get in. This is why everyone suspected that the cult was cheating.Another asked: "But what is their purpose for doing this?"

The release of the news stirred up turmoil in the area around the Valley of Ten Faces, causing the garrison to raise their alert... The adjutant gave a "tsk" and said, "I still think they are targeting the prince."

"I don't think so. Although our lord has been in the Southwest during this time, there are so many military affairs in the Southwest. Whether rumors will attract the Ten Faces Valley, the cult will not guess in advance. What if the lord doesn't come? They Wouldn't it be a waste of work."

The scene fell into silence again, Liu Xian'an agreed with the latter statement, he also felt that the news from Bai Fujiao this time was not necessarily aimed at Liang Shu, or to be more accurate, at least not only aimed at Liang Shu.

Compared with the high vigilance and covetousness of the garrison against the dense forest, the people of Ten Faces Valley are much more relaxed, especially the arrival of Liang Shu, which also makes everyone feel more secure.Not to mention anything else, the number of aunts who wandered around the gate of Daying with vegetable baskets in the past two days was several times more than before.

In the end, no one could see His Royal Highness King Xiao, but he saw twice the legendary Second Young Master Liu, wrapped in a big black cloak that could cover his face from the wind, and once walking from south to north with a medicine basket in his hand. One time, I was carrying a food box and traveling from north to south. Regardless of other things, doesn't this seem very diligent?

But in fact, he was forced by Mr. Liu. He had to arrange a bunch of them every day to survive, but he made the lazy man miserable. His creed in life still hasn't changed. It doesn't have to be done by me, so I have to Don't do it... But no matter how firm your beliefs are, you can't stand the ruler in your heart. Everything is a ruler. In the end, you have to yawn and compromise. You go in and out all day long, like a diligent person, busy from morning to night.

After work, I didn't even want to eat dinner anymore, lying on the bed and refusing to move.

"You really don't plan to eat anymore?" Liang Shu picked him up, "Specially ordered the kitchen to cook matsutake chicken soup for you."

Liu Xian'an put his arms softly on each other's shoulders, eating, but didn't want to move.

Ah Ning stood beside him, wanting to sigh again, alas, the prince is so used to him that he doesn't even want to move his chopsticks when eating.

Liang Shu hugged him tightly with a smile, and before he had time to step over the threshold, three sharp whistles suddenly sounded gradually above the camp, like sharp arrows piercing through the golden and red sunset glow in the sky. "Boom boom" rings!

The whistles used in the barracks to convey police information are divided into five grades. The higher you go, the more dangerous the situation is. The Valley of Ten Faces has always been calm. The last time there were three whistles, it was decades ago when there were nearly a hundred lost wild elephants. Stormed into the village in the middle of the night.

Liu Xian'an was sleepy, and when he heard the whistle, he didn't react immediately, so he was put back on the bed by Liang Shu in a daze, and the soldiers outside quickly surrounded him, protecting the small courtyard tightly and airtight.

"My lord!" Cheng Suyue also rushed to report, "There is something strange in the village below the mountain, like... a monkey?"

She was not sure about what she said. At this time, the sun had already disappeared into the mountain, and the sunset glow had also faded. The dizzy light covered the entire Ten Faces Valley. Even with a telescope, you could only see clearly the shadows jumping up and down in the village below the mountain. .Liang Shu took the saber, got on his horse and just left the camp when Gao Lin galloped towards him, carrying a black ball of unknown object in his hand.

Cheng Suyue was still discerning carefully with her eyes wide open, but after distinguishing clearly, the food she just ate in her stomach surged up, without him, it was too disgusting.It was a... person who was almost in the shape of a five-year-old child. His skin was gray all over, his face had decayed lines, his eyes were gray, his pupils were red, his palms were dry, his nails were curved and sharp, and his gray hair was like weeds. Lifting it, the whole facial features were raised up strangely, and a smiling face appeared.

A smiling face that is enough to make everyone who has seen "him" have nightmares for ten days.

Not to mention there is a bloody black hole at the mouth of the throat.

"What the hell is this?" Gao Lin himself was also very surprised. "As soon as he entered the village, he went on a rampage. He ran faster than a cheetah, overturned walls and demolished tiles, knocked down tables, chairs and benches of more than a dozen families, and dozens of men I didn’t even catch up with it, and in the end, because I ran too fast, I straightened my neck and bumped into my sword.”

Liang Shu asked, "Is this the only one?"

Gao Lin was taken aback: "Huh? When I was here, there was only—"

Before he finished speaking, whistles rang through the sky one after another, this time there were as many as four whistles!The garrison had already packed up and rushed down the mountain, Liang Shu whipped his whip and said, "Let's go!"

Gao Lin agreed, and threw the thing in his hand forward, Cheng Suyue was forced to catch it, had a close contact with this thing, and almost spat it out again.

"Take it to Young Master Liu to see!"

"..."

Cheng Suyue hesitated, can I really take it? If the Second Young Master Liu is frightened, will the prince deduct money from us afterwards.

But on second thought, that's someone from Baihe Villa who has been scalped since he was a child.

So in the end, he dragged the "trophy" back to the camp.Liu Xianche was also staying in his younger brother's room at this time, when he heard the guards outside retching suddenly, he was puzzled, the two brothers both walked out the door: "What's wrong... what the hell is this?"

"My brother caught it in the village at the foot of the mountain." Cheng Suyue said, "It should be more than this one, the prince has already rushed over."

Liu Xian'an ordered people to light up all the lanterns in the courtyard, rolled up his sleeves and put on gloves, stepped forward to check carefully, and said, "Looks like a ghost boy."

Liu Xianche had also heard the legend that the wizard would use herbs and lime to dehydrate the girl's body, put it in colorful clothes, nail it to a wooden stake, and walk through the streets with him in his hand.He said: "Although the ghost boy sounds weird and terrifying, in essence, he is just a mummy doll. How can he run and jump?"

"I'm just saying that this method of concocting is similar to concocting a ghost boy." Liu Xian'an said, "But it didn't kill the boy completely. It should be that some kind of poisonous Gu was used to control the brain and meridians, making it infinitely powerful and changing. into a queer beast."

"Find an empty house." Liu Xianche said, "Take a look at it."

Liu Xian'an nodded: "Okay."

His face remained unchanged, calm and calm.

What is professionalism.

Baihe Villa is amazing.

And His Royal Highness Xiao Wang at the foot of the mountain is also very powerful, holding a longbow and piercing through Yang with a hundred steps, and the arrow is full of fire. Call!

There were estimated to be seven or eight ghost boys in the village. The garrison outflanked five of them, and the other one was bigger and looked like a leader. With a sudden "bang", Shengsheng knocked a big hole out of the wall with his head.

"Ah!" The peasant woman in the house screamed in horror!

Gao Lin at the entrance of the village cut a ghost boy to death with a backhanded sword. Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a black shadow swished across his eyes, accompanied by the weak cry of the baby, and the shouts of the officers and soldiers behind him: "Lieutenant Gao, stop it! Stop it! Stop it! It snatched a child away!"

Why stop, stop yelling, didn't you see that thing has run away without even a shadow left?Gao Lin cursed secretly, got on his horse again and wanted to chase, but Liang Shu had already galloped past him, the wind was rustling, and his long sword was stained with blood.

"You guys, follow the prince!" Gao Lin turned his horse's head, "The rest follow me into the village!"

"Yes!"

Holding the baby's swaddling clothes in one hand, relying only on his legs and the other hand, Gui Tongzi shuttled back and forth between the trees and vines with his hunched figure, without any loss of speed!The cry of the baby was so weak that it could hardly be heard. Seeing that the front was approaching the edge of the miasma and white mist, Liang Shu drew his longbow, and through the shadows of trees, shot an arrow in the air!

With a "thud", Guitongzi's neck was shot through with precision, he staggered twice, and his pace slowed down.Several soldiers took the opportunity to rush forward, trying to snatch the baby back, but the other party seemed to be completely enraged, and threw the swaddle in his hand to the other side!

It was a cliff that was not too high or too short. An adult might be able to survive if he fell off it, but a baby of a few months might be in danger.She slipped out of the quilt crying, and the little fragile life just fell straight down!At this critical moment when his life was hanging by a thread, a person suddenly jumped from a high place, held the baby firmly in his arms, drew his sword out of its sheath with his right hand, and then used all the strength in his body to nail the blade into the cliff!

The metal drew a string of sparks, and finally the blade smoothly stuck into a crack, allowing him to hang on the stone wall.

The baby was still crying "Wow".

"Chang Shao Escort!" The soldiers gathered at the cliff and shouted, "If you hold on for a while, we'll let the rope down!"

"Okay!" Chang Xiaoqiu held the baby in one hand and the hilt of the sword in the other, her face was flushed red!The night wind in the mountains was cold, he lowered his head, and put his face against the child's head, trying to pass some warmth to it, but sometimes the wind got stronger, and it swayed his whole body.The hand holding the sword has been completely frozen, and the blood flowing in the blood vessel is not like blood, but like a needle just taken out of the snow.He raised his head with difficulty, just in time to see Liang Shu also standing on a high place, his robe was blown up by the wind, his face was backlit, like a god.

There seems to be nothing wrong with this wind.

Chang Xiaoqiu thought hard.

In order to leave a good impression in the prince's heart, he even forcibly concocted a calm smile, trying his best to keep his face from collapsing.

Seeing the soldiers who were knotting ropes on the top of the mountain, they were very anxious, worried that the boy was frozen stupid, had hallucinations, and why he was still giggling, so he speeded up, and his fingers were flying.

Finally, just before the smiling Chang Shao was in a trance and was about to be unable to hold on any longer, a soldier slipped down the rope, first tied his waist firmly, and then carried the baby into his arms , the person who rushed to the head made a gesture.

The rope was pulled up quickly, but only one was pulled up. As for the other... The person who pulled the rope asked wondering if Chang Shao's escort head was caught by some branch. Why is it so heavy? Can't move.

"When I just went down, I didn't see any trees anywhere."

A group of people were lying on the edge of the cliff looking down, and someone yelled: "Hey! Xiao Chang! Try to move yourself!"

From the moment Chang Xiaoqiu was tied with a rope around her waist, she completely let go of her strength, almost paralyzed in mid-air, paralyzed with her brain and body, just waiting for her head to start pulling.Now that I heard everyone shouting, I regained my frozen soul and thought, why don't you drag me, but climb up by yourself.

Climb and climb!He gritted his teeth, stretched out his hand to hold the hilt of the sword again, and wanted to climb up, but he couldn't move an inch.

An ominous premonition surged in Chang Xiaoqiu's heart, and he slowly lowered his head to look down, and saw a skinny black claw with sharp nails "growing" abruptly in the stone wall, holding his clothes tightly.

He took a deep breath.

"Xiao Chang! Xiao Chang! Say something! Are you okay!" The person above shouted a few more times. Seeing that he hadn't moved, he wanted to go down the rope to rescue him, but Chang Xiaoqiu raised his head and yelled: " Don't move yet!"

He collected himself, held the rope tightly, and slid down a section slowly.As the altitude descended, a cave hidden under the stone wall was gradually revealed, and in the cave, a gray-red spot of light was flickering on and off.

Dozens, hundreds, or even hundreds of ghost boys were squatting there neatly, looking at him silently and uniformly.

After seeing the scene in front of her clearly, Chang Xiaoqiu's pupils constricted, and she almost screamed out of fear from this terrifying scene!He desperately pulled the rope and wanted to climb up, but the ghost boy in the cave screamed and jumped out, hanging on his leg one after another, like a huge beehive!

The rope slid down a lot!

Chang Xiaoqiu watched helplessly as he got farther and farther away from the sword stuck in the stone wall, so he could only rely on his fists and close his eyes to smash down, trying to break free from the burden!But there are too many ghost boys, even if one or two are lucky enough to hit one or two, a new batch will rush up soon, and at the same time as the rope around his waist is about to be torn off, an awe-inspiring sword aura suddenly swept across !

The ghost boy was caught off guard, and fell a batch down the cliff with a "bang bang".Holding the rope in one hand, Liang Shu flew in the air to catch Chang Xiaoqiu, kicked those ghost boys who were still hanging on his legs to break their skulls, then flew back to the top of the cliff, and threw Chang Xiaoqiu back to his subordinates.

"My lord!" A man threw his saber over.

Liang Shu held the hilt of the sword, and the cold light condensed in his hand. Almost in an instant, he turned over and fell into the cliff again, went to the cave again, and swung through it!

Amidst the screams of "Chi Chi Wa Wa", more than half of the ghost boys were killed or injured, and those who survived by chance, like a swarm of poisonous bees that have been bombed, buzzed and climbed rapidly. Dispersed, black figures bouncing up and down in the forest, like giant fleas.

After the group of "fleas" disappeared, Siye regained its silence.

All the soldiers were terrified. They looked at each other, and for a long time, they choked out a sentence: "Damn it, why are there so many?"

"There may be more in the future." Liang Shu picked up Chang Xiaoqiu with a stern face, "Someone carry him on his back and go back to the camp first."
