Days and nights of the Raiders of Peerless Beauty

When Qi Jiu entered the desert border for the first time, he was filled with boredom and unreasonable fear in his heart.

But here, now, here.

The most beautiful person in the world accompanied him to have a panoramic view of thousands of miles of wind and clouds, and the clouds dyed the Changmo.

Any desolation can also ignite the spring colors of March in the south of the Yangtze River.

Qi Jiu laughed along with him, the wind is good, the clouds are good, the scorching wind of the desert merges into the scent of wood resin and leaves, everything is good.

Shangguan Yichuan suddenly said, "Go on!" A white light flashed between his two fingers, and Qi Jiu clapped his hands together, firmly connecting.

It is still a jade bone, and the hole has been drilled long ago.

Qi Jiu put it on carefully as usual, and the three teeth were gathered in the socket of his collarbone. Shangguan Yibu said, "You save hard, don't ask why, one day, I will slowly tell you the story of these teeth listen."

There was a moment of silence, and the expressions of the two of them coincidentally returned to silence. They stopped talking and quietly left Mingzhou Prison on horseback. When they returned to the city, it was just the beginning of the lights. The heights of the towers are wrong, and they don't have a rough style outside the Great Wall.

The night market comes out at the same time as the bright moon, and all kinds of northern delicacies and exotic delicacies pour into the streets and alleys of the market. At a certain corner, an iron stove is braised, and large pieces of mutton are skewered on red willow sticks. The charcoal fire is glowing, and the oil is fragrant.

Qi Jiu's eyes immediately shone like a hungry dog.

Shangguan Yibuki reached out and took out a silver ingot, intending to try something new.

Qi Jiu held out ten fingers, "Boss, thirty skewers."

Shangguan Yibui laughed casually, went to the wine shop to drink a jar of the best Luo Fuchun, and when he came back, Qi Jiu squatted next to the iron plate of the kebab, unable to move anymore.

The owner of the kebab was quite proud, "I'm afraid this little brother is a nobleman from Yemoluo?"

Qi Jiu shook her head, "I'm just here, born and bred."

The boss folded his hands, and the unique greasy fragrance of meat skewers gradually became stronger, "I traveled to Yemoluo a few years ago, and the nobles there were almost all like you, but they were dressed extravagantly."

"Besides, the Yemoluo people like to eat charcoal-grilled lamb legs the most. Lamb is the staple food in their life. I thought that people in the Northern Zhou Dynasty can't smell the smell of lamb, so why don't you try cutting it into skewers."

"To be honest, you are my first customer today. Seeing how you devoured your food, I guess my meat skewer business is not bad."

Qi Jiu continued, "Anyway, it's the most delicious one I've ever eaten. The boss must be making a lot of money."

The owner of the kebab is simply delighted.

Qi Jiu took the opportunity to say, "Boss, don't you give me a few more skewers... Oops!"

He was suddenly carried away by the collar, and looked up at Shangguan Yifeng, who was half hugging the wine jar, half teasing, "Why, are you going to rely on your mouth to eat in the future?"

Qi Jiu licked his face and smiled, before he could figure out how to answer the next sentence, he only heard the ground tremble.

The sound came from the bottom surface, and when Shangguan Yichuan reacted, the flat road on which the soles of his feet were stepping on began to break down one after another, and small lines climbed up in all directions, finally protruding a towering mound not far from the two of them.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Shangguan Yichuan immediately pulled Qi Jiu's collar, kicked up along the high wall and railing tiles, and flew to the top of the roof very quickly.

If you look closely, the mound continues to rise. When it reaches the height of the eaves of the building, a fat and round long worm emerges from the mound. The shape is like the tooth-eating sand worm described in ancient books. The sharp-edged Senbai bite teeth constantly chew on stones and grind them into fine powder.

The strong and strange fragrance was accompanied by the appearance of tooth-eating sandworms, blowing towards the face.

Witnessing the giant worm bursting out of the ground, people in the surrounding night markets fled. Seeing its sharp white teeth, Qi Jiuguang couldn't help but hide the meat skewers behind his back.

"Don't worry about hiding the food, can't you see that this is a phantom beast?!" Shangguan Yichuan threw away the wine jar, quickly pulled out the scimitar around the moon, and pointed it at the tooth-eating sandworm's huge mouth in two batches , the air of the knife was broadcast into the character Yi, and it was chopped heavily between the sharp teeth of the forest.

Qi Jiu followed him, and sure enough, between the skin and bones of a giant beast like a mound, he saw red-yellow illusory threads, continuously weaving the body of the phantom beast.

Shangguan Yichui cut with two knives one after the other, and hit the giant beast's mouth. The exposed teeth were chopped off at the root. The tooth-eating sandworm spewed out powder from the mouth in severe pain. Scum, the violent waves hit the heads of the two of them.

"Let's go!" Shangguan Yichuan continued to pull Qi Jiu, running like lightning piercing the clouds, Lie Liefengsand followed closely behind his heels, if he took a slow step, he would be beaten into bloody chaff.

The two fled and escaped several attacks one after another. It was all by luck. Qi Jiu watched the tall buildings passing by collapse, and shouted with all his strength, "Aren't the scimitar and flute of the lord the magic weapon?!"

Against the wind came Shangguan Yichuan's reply, "No way, Kemojiu is not around to weave phantom walls. Wherever this phantom beast goes, it will destroy houses and kill innocent people. We'd better lure it out of the city, no matter how good it is." tidy."

Qi Jiu thought for a while, and said, "It's wonderful, after all, it can cure the surface but not the root." As if he had absorbed more courage from Shangguan Yibuki, he untied the tie of his green shirt to recruit the golden cicada to escape its shell.

Shangguan Yichuan secretly felt that his hands were light, and there was only a thin summer shirt left in his hand. Looking at Qi Jiu's sticky meat skewers, he jumped away from the giant sandstorm of tooth-eating sandworms like a rabbit, and shouted from a distance, "My lord lures the phantom beast out of the city, I Go find where the phantom thread came from!"

What nonsense!But the only way that works.

Shangguan Yifeng frowned unknowingly, and led the phantom beast to crawl towards the gate of the city step by step, then raised his hand and slashed the phantom beast's saber fiercely. On the thick body of insect oil.

The beast and worm were cut in two immediately, and the blood spurted out to greet the moon, and some other things flowed out.

Qi Jiu heard the phantom beast screaming from a distance, and ran faster with his feet. His eyes kept chasing the source of the phantom thread, and he climbed over more than [-] walls, and finally came to a corner.

It was pitch black and silent, and the sound of entangled water could be faintly heard. There was a person lying beside the water, covering his head and roaring non-stop, while another person desperately pressed his rolling body, shouting hoarsely, "Abao, Abao , hold on, we just need to send that worm out of the city, and we can live comfortably from now on!"

The face of the man named A Bao was distorted, and he yelled sadly while pulling his hair, "No! No! Brother Dajun, the bug was chopped off, ahhh! I was the one who was chopped off! It hurts so much! Hurry up and put the thing on my back. Rip it off! I'm going to die!"

Dajun seemed to have lost his mind, he crushed Ah Bao's chest to death, turned him over, hissed hard with his hands, and hissed the clothes behind him, revealing his bony back with a halo of silver embedded in his back .

"A Bao, hold on, I'll help you..." Da Jun was already crying, and took out a shining dagger from his trouser leg, and pried it on the thing on A Bao's back.

For a moment, the phantom thread overflowing from the silver block seemed to be alerted, and the strange fragrance burst out, and the thousands of strands condensed into a thick rope, which was about to be wrapped around the neck of the army.

"Stop it!" Qi Jiu ate the meat skewers, and flew out of the red willow stick in his palm with one hand, and when he shot down the short dagger in the army's hand, the army rolled away in horror.

The dagger fell to the ground, and he just walked between the two of them. The water light reflected the moonlight and made it whiter. Qi Jiu could clearly feel that the phantom thread behind A Bao became stronger and more defensive.

It's just that it no longer wraps itself around the army, but circles around its own head like a python, and the coil becomes thicker and thicker, gradually forming another ferocious tooth-eating sandworm.

Could it be that Ah Bao had secretly developed a sense of self-defense, which caused the phantom thread to change suddenly?

Qi Jiusui said to the suffering humans on the ground, "Don't be afraid, I didn't come to hurt you, you have to relax..."

Regardless of his good words, the newly woven behemoth is ready in an instant.

Shangguan Yibui's words came to Ling Weidu, "Hit his head Baihui!"

Too cruel!The army rushes forward to protect Po.

Qi Jiu quickly threw all the meat skewers in his hand to the army, nailed the man's clothes to the ground firmly, and made a half-air fist with his hand, and slammed Abao's Baihui acupoint.

Abao suddenly fell into a deep coma, because of the excessive pain and tension, subconsciously, he was still extremely defensive, but the woven phantom temporarily disappeared from the outline and no longer swelled.

A gust of wind came from far away, Qi Jiu had many clothes on his shoulders, and the hairpin knife in his hair was taken away by the wind, and his curly hair wrapped around his waist like a waterfall.

Looking intently, Shangguan Yichuan quickly spread out the sphenoid wing knife, aiming at Abao's back and peeling off the skin.

The whole piece of silver was stained with blood and flesh, and was cut off.

Ah Bao let out a groan in a coma, and the tooth-eating sandworms that gradually formed around his head flew away like thin snow, and even the strong fragrance disappeared instantly.

Shangguan Yibui sealed several acupoints on Abao's back with his fingers, took out a white enamel bottle from his arms, and sprinkled the medicine powder on it vigorously, until the rolling drops of blood gradually stopped.

Qi Jiu tore the shirt on his shoulders into strips, and cooperated with the other party to bandage A Bao's wound tightly.

After everything was successfully completed, the moon counterattacked above the dark clouds, and the earth received light again, Qi Jiu was surprised to find that the person who could not see clearly was actually a young man of seventeen or eighteen.

"I'm sorry, don't kill our brothers... I beg you." Da Jun was nailed to the ground crying hard, his whole face was a bit more miserable than the moonlight.

Qi Jiu hurriedly touched the back of A Bao's head and the front of his nose, he was beaten so hard just now, don't miss it and kill him.

Shangguan Yifeng was neither surprised nor merciful, holding the silver fragments in his hand, looking directly at the trembling army, he asked, "Where did you get this kind of thing, and why do you want to steal food?"

When the phantom beast was blasted just now, the phantom beast's stomach was full of food.

The army was also horrified to death, without any strength to struggle, lying on the ground begging for mercy, "We didn't steal that thing, it was Ah Bao who followed his father to the holy city of Xian'an, he didn't know what happened, so he posted it on back."

Yes, Shangguan Yichuan and Qi Jiu became interested and instructed him to continue talking.

Da Jun choked a few times, and said intermittently: "After my father and A-Niang reconciled, Dad wanted A-Bao, so he drove me and A-Niang out of the house, regardless of our life or death. A-Niang heard that Mingzhou City needs people all the year round. If you plant green forests, you can get monthly money, so come and try your luck."

"As a result, my mother died of illness not long after she came here, and I wanted to beg for food, but I was often bullied by refugees very badly."

"Yesterday, I planned to mix with the sand pickers and wait for a stutter, but a huge strange insect appeared on the sand ridge, which scared the sand pickers away, and I thought I was going to die."

"Who knew that the figure riding on Chongzi's head turned out to be Ah Bao. Because he couldn't stand his father's beating, he asked many times, and escaped to seek refuge with me and Auntie."

"As soon as our brother met, I wondered how he could control such a horrible insect. He said he didn't know why, but he went to play in Zhaohe on the Ghost Festival, and happened to encounter something that exploded, and there was a hard The object hit his back, and after the burning pain, he didn't feel any more."

"As a result, when Daddy got drunk and beat him at night, he went to sleep in the stable, and a blood-sucking bug bit his foot. It was a strange bug he had never seen before, so he trampled the bug to death and fell asleep."

"A Bao said that his nightmares at night were all about the disgusting appearance of that bug, but when he woke up, the bug really floated on his head, and even the stables collapsed."

"He was afraid that his father would beat him to death, so he rode on the strange bug and came to me."

Hearing his explanation, Qi Jiu couldn't help but said, "Oh, it's all my fault," and said, "This phantom beast is so beautifully woven, I think it's only been a few days since the Ghost Festival, and this phantom beast can actually make it After traveling four thousand miles, they rushed to Mingzhou City."

Shangguan Yichuan ignored him, and said to Dajun, "Your brother has been looking for you for thousands of miles, and the journey has been bumpy. Why do you think of being a thief and stealing food? As a brother, how can you be worthy of his love?"

The army was blamed, and he burst into tears and said, "Aniang is gone, and I am suffering from hunger and cold. Seeing that Abao is coming, and bringing strange insects, so I have evil thoughts."

Struggling to get rid of the obstacles on his body, Da Jun knelt down and begged for mercy, "My lords, arrest me and see the officials, but please don't embarrass my younger brother. He was forced by me. He is definitely not a bad boy who steals. I beg you two!" My lord, be merciful!" Knocking his head several times in succession, the skin on his forehead was pierced and bleeding came out.

Just when Ah Bao woke up, he called softly, "Brother Dajun...I don't want to be separated from you..."

Shangguan Yifeng pondered for a while, and he turned his head to look at Qi Jiu, Qi Jiu seemed to be immersed in the inseparable brotherhood, looking at him with watery eyes.

Sui said, "Although I am not among the officials appointed by the imperial court, I am also ordered by the empress. The law does not tolerate mercy. I cannot let you two brothers go."

"Just now the phantom beasts came and went. Although there were no casualties, the buildings were all destroyed and the losses were heavy."

Dajun knew his mistake, and hugged the injured Abao, and the two shrank into a ball.

Shangguan Yibuki said again, "But you are young and ignorant after all, and you are forced by life, and the law of humanity is tolerant."

"The whole incident was caused by illusions, so your two brothers will not be handed over to the yamen for investigation, but will be directly accepted by the branch of Lijinmen. You two brothers should reflect on good and evil, and go to Wumusu Desert to plant flowers and plants every day. , when you can support yourself in three years, I will give you freedom, okay?"

Holding A Bao in his arms, Da Jun repeatedly kowtowed to the official Yi Chui to thank him.

Not long after, the disciples of Lijinmen received Lingshou's order and took the two brothers away with all their heart.

Qi Jiushi breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing the way his heart was unloaded, Shangguan Yifeng touched Qi Jiusong's messy long hair unconsciously, and his words softened three points, "You can be said to be the first success today. You are the first to find the source of the disaster before causing any damage. How can I thank you"

Qi Jiuxiang was reminded, turned around and said with a mournful face, "Meat skewers, my meat skewers are gone, my lord..."
