Chapter 240 Six: You Must Marry King Leoric

"Oh, then it's all right..." Zhuogcamu looked out of the window with lingering fear, and murmured: "Sure enough, this window should be nailed to death... Yes, why not? The Crow King is dead , I can refit this big cage, but... where do I go to hire people to work? What if those people are spies? What if, what if, what if the servants are prejudiced against me because of this, and then treat me What about poisoning?"

"You're so sensitive, Mom," Kiki said.

"sensitive?"

Drogue Camus pondered for a while with his arms folded, and said, "Ah, yes, boy, you are right, I am like a lunatic all day long, and I would scream in fright at the slightest sign of trouble..." Speaking of Drog Camus sighed, "But do you know how difficult it is for me to survive these years? My child, as far as I can remember, I almost died ten times. The most serious time was when someone poisoned my tea, and I I was in severe pain all over the body, vomited blood all night, and then fell into a coma for three days and three nights..."

"I was in a coma for four days." Kiki said in a low voice.

"Yes, fortunately, Heavenly Father took care of our mother and daughter, and we all survived in the end, but what about the next time? What about the next time? When the Crow King is around, we are useful to him, and at least he will protect us—although this There is not much difference between protection and imprisonment, but at least it is safe. But now the Crow King is dead! He has left a lot of inheritance, and these inheritances are mine in name. Do you know how many people are coveting these things? Oh, those Jackals, tigers and leopards, I know them, I know them! Especially the nephew of the Crow King, his name is Kuman, do you know?"

"Kumanhat, I know." Kiki said.

"Yes, Kuman! Kuman hated him! It would be fine if he kept me imprisoned, but he hated me from a long time ago! He thought I was a disaster, and once wanted to burn me to death! If he came to power We are doomed. Fortunately, he is still fighting for the Dragon King Breen in the north, but he will be back in a few months! What shall we do then?"

Drogcamu became more and more agitated as she spoke, living in danger for many years, and the long-term torture almost destroyed her spirit.She is morbidly afraid and anxious, and when this emotion reaches a climax, she will...

"Woo!" Drog Camus bent down and retched against the terracotta jar by the wall.Since she had been anorexic since last night, she just vomited some acid water.He vomited until his face turned blue, and then gasped in pain.

The doctor said that my mother's illness is called "panic disorder", which is caused by excessive fear and tension. There is no good prescription, and I can only take some calming medicine to slowly recuperate.However, in such a place where people may fall to the ground at any time, is it possible not to be nervous?Qiqi's two fathers died one after another, and it is said that there were five more before that.And when everyone died, someone said that their mother and daughter would be buried with them. If it weren't for the protection of the heavenly father, their mother and daughter would have turned into handfuls of loess.The mother is the patriarch in name, but actually has nothing.

Qiqi heard that her mother used to be an ingenious woman. She could embroider, carve, slaughter sheep, skin skin, sew armor, cook, understand four tribal languages, speak plateau dialect, maintain weapons, and sew boots. , know etiquette, know how to draw talismans, and even simple psychics... If it weren't for the blood of the goddess and the status of the patriarch, she could have lived an ordinary and happy life.However, since she inherited the patriarchate at the age of ten, her fate has been fragmented.The mother knows everything except politics. She is kind but also cowardly, kind but indecisive. Until the third time she was almost killed by someone, she still treated everyone around her sincerely... In the end, as expected, she She lost everything and became a political puppet of the grassland nobles. If it was just like this, it might be okay, at least she can be an ordinary lady, and as long as she goes with the flow, she can live a peaceful life.However, she happened to be of the blood of the Heavenly Father, Lady, and Goddess. This power made her kill the men around her one after another. More people died... Eventually Drog Camus became taboo.People desire to have her, but hate her and fear her. The final result is to lock her in the palace and alienate her infinitely.

Under such a fate, Drogcamus was considered strong if his spirit did not collapse.

The same is true for Qiqi. Her mother said that her "goddess luck" is stronger than her mother's, so that not only her husband will die, but even the people around her will die.Kiki didn't believe it at first, until she adopted a kitten to death for the third time-God!The kitten is an extremely healthy wild cat. It has been looking for food in the castle garden for a year. It has a fierce personality and high martial arts skills. It is not afraid of even a big shepherd dog.And Qiqi just hugged it, and it died at the door the next morning without any trauma.

Since then, Kiki has developed a great fear of all living things.She was afraid that she would change the fate of others and kill them.

The mother vomited painfully because of the "phobia". Qiqi felt sorry for her mother. However, this kind of heartache has been tortured for a long time, and the heartache has become a common feeling. In this way, from the surface, she seems to be numbness.She greeted the servants skillfully, asked them to bring towels, water and herbal pills, and then watched her silently through the curtain.After a long time, Drogkamyu gradually recovered her emotions. She sobbed and said, "My child, sometimes I really want to die, but it's better than being so frightened."

Qiqi didn't know what to answer—she also thought about dying, but she was too young, and she had been confined in the castle for 15 years. She had never seen the prosperity of the world. If she died like this, she would be really unwilling.

"But I'm a cowardly woman." Mother sighed, "If I had the courage to die, I'm afraid I wouldn't have fallen to this point."

"So I still want to live and bring you with me." Speaking of this, the mother looked at the letter on the table, saw the letter from Leoric, her frowning brows relaxed, and said: " I think about it, and only this move can help us get out of the sea of ​​suffering. Leoric's ability to defeat the Crow King with less than 3 people and 10 people is enough to show that his strength is superior to the four barbarian kings. From the side , he is more regal than the Crow King, maybe he can suppress your luck. If Leoric can really suppress your luck, our hard days will come to an end! By then your goddess blood It won't kill him, but it will make him very lucky, and he will be a real emperor from now on! And we will escape this pathetic fate. Then we can live! I don't have to worry about others at night Assassination, you don’t have to worry about the sudden sudden death of the man in the family, you can live like a normal person. Child, you will be 16 years old tomorrow, but you haven’t left this castle yet!”

"Of course I want to live like a normal person, but..." Qiqi said very frustrated, "Can Leoric really suppress my goddess luck? If not..."

"Then you have to marry him too." Mother's expression became serious.

"mom?"

"Even if you can kill him, you still have to marry. Because if you don't marry him, we will surely die!" Drogcamus said with a painful expression on his face, "Now the news that we are going to marry King Leoric has been announced. Open, when the little crow king Kuman comes back from the north, he will definitely settle accounts with us! You must marry Leoric before then, and then we, mother and daughter, will move to Wild Wolf City to avoid Kuman’s attack. liquidation."

"Then what if King Leoric dies because of me?"

"It can only be said that he...is destined to die like this." The mother smiled wryly.

Hearing this, Qiqi immediately shouted excitedly: "I don't want it! I don't want to kill others!" She stood up from behind the curtain, "Mom, I have imprisoned myself in this seal for five years. Hurt others? This time you want me to kill people! And kill a king. The death of the patriarch will cause a bloody storm. If Leoric, the king of the plateau, dies, how many People are implicated? This is more than a life debt, how can we pay it back?"

Drog Camus sighed—Kiki is a very kind girl, just like Drog Camus when she was young.

"Son, of course I understand these principles! But what if Leoric can suppress your luck?"

Qiqi argued: "Mom! You just said that if he can't hold it back, you will force me to marry him."

Mother said, "Well, let's go see him first. I'll look at the face, and if Leoric has the looks of a king, you marry him; if he doesn't, we come back."

"How is that possible? Mom, please think twice!" Qiqi has lived in intrigue since she was a child, but she is more sophisticated than her mother. "If we get to Wild Wolf City, we should decide on marriage and so on." ?King Leoric will definitely marry me for the political legacy of the Crow King, what should I do then? Tell him the truth and say:'I am so sorry, Your Majesty! I am actually a cursed woman. Will die...' Then what will King Leoric say and do? If he believes it, he will repent of the marriage on the spot and kill us; if he doesn't believe it...then I will still kill him."

Zhuoge Camou was very surprised to hear her daughter's words. Obviously, Qiqi analyzed the matter more thoroughly than her, and she saw it more clearly than her.Kiki was smarter than she was, and Drogkamyu was both relieved and saddened to think that the kid was only sixteen.Thinking of this, she strengthened her determination—our mother and daughter must live on!Even if only Kiki is allowed to live.

At this moment, Drogkamyu's maternal love overcame fear, reason, and justice and kindness. She said in unquestionable words: "Son, it's too late to say anything now! We only have one way to go, and that's the only way we can go." Just make peace and marry Leoric! You must marry him! There is no other way."

"Maybe...we can escape halfway." Qiqi murmured.

"Run?" Drogcamus laughed dumbfoundedly.

"Yes, we can escape on the way to Wild Wolf City! I heard that the road is winding, with woods, valleys and sand dunes. The knights' horses cannot walk in these places, and we may be able to escape."

Mother asked her: "Where did you escape to?"

"Anywhere, any village, town or whatever, and we then make our own living, earn money to eat, and be free ordinary people."

Mother shook her head and said, "That's impossible, we can't live without the castle."

Qiqi asked her: "Mom, don't you want to let go of your glory and wealth? You can't let go of your clothes, stretch your hands to eat, and open your mouth?"

Faced with her rude questioning, the mother was not angry, but said: "My child, I have been imprisoned here for most of my life, and you have been imprisoned here for the rest of my life. Do you think it will be so easy to survive outside?"

"Mother, aren't you very handy? You can do manual work to survive; I have also learned a lot of skills, I can be a tailor, I can write letters for you, I can go to jewelry stores, woodworking shops, taverns, potion workshops... You can work in all kinds of places! Why can't you survive?"

"The things you said are only found in big cities—no, the point is not this, but..." Drogcamus sighed, "because our mother and daughter are so beautiful, beautiful enough to trample on morality and law. Many In order to get our mother and daughter, people will do whatever it takes."

"Is there? Aren't we just ordinary women?" Qiqi seldom contacts outsiders, hears no compliments, and has no comparison.So beautiful without knowing it.

"Your mother is so beautiful that she killed seven patriarchs. When they married me, didn't you know that I have the blood of a goddess? But they still want to take a gamble, because they are so obsessed with me that they lose their minds... Children, actually It's okay to be locked up, you don't know how terrible those people are who are crazy for us."

"Is that an exaggeration?" Qiqi was dubious.

"When you meet King Leoric and see how much he loves you, you will understand." Zhuog Camus laughed, "Okay, let's not talk about this, we will set off to go to the wild wolf tomorrow." city."

"mom!"

"Go to sleep, child, and take care of yourself, the journey will be very hard..."

The daughter was silent, and the mother sighed.

At this time, the cat outside was meowing again. Hearing the meowing of the cat outside, Drogkamyu suddenly looked soft and said, "This is a pregnant female cat who is about to give birth, or you can bring her in." Raise it? It will be winter soon."

Qiqi said: "I dare not take her in and raise her, for fear of passing bad luck to it."

"Oh...then ask someone to give it more food." Drogkamyu nodded, and then murmured with dull eyes: "Poor! Poor!" The mother cat is still lamenting her fate.

Chapter 240 Seven: Strong Army Theory

A few days later, Drog Camus and her daughter set off for Wolf City.Accompanying them were envoys from seven tribes.Zhuoge Kamiao first loaded her "forbidden daughter" into the sedan chair alone, and then let the warrior with captives on her body carry her into the car. The car was airtight, and the inside was covered with talismans. Her bad luck leaked out to harm others.

Naturally, everyone kept their distance from the mother and daughter. The envoys of the seven tribes sat in the convoy behind them, keeping a distance of [-] meters from her.

There were about [-] people in the convoy, carrying many gifts, which would be considered luxurious in the eyes of ordinary people, but compared to the battles of the Crow King in the past, it was already very shabby.

Following Drog Camus' order, the team leader slapped his whip, and the convoy officially set off.The mother and daughter sat in the car with uneasy feelings, the daughter sat inside the seal, and Drogcamus sat outside the seal.After walking for a while, Tanachig in the car asked curiously: "Mom, how many people are there? It sounds like a lot."

"More than 200 people."

"So many?" Qiqi said in surprise, "Isn't it just me who wants to marry? Why are they following?"

"It's said to be an envoy who presented a gift to King Leoric..." Zhuog Camus sneered at this point, "Actually, he went to step on the spot."

"Step on?"

"These guys obviously have objections to the 'Heavenly Khan' I identified, and they have to see for themselves. These guys will definitely take the opportunity to go to Wild Wolf City to inquire about information and find out about Leoric's reality. ..."

Qiqi in the sealed carriage showed a puzzled expression, and said, "Didn't the Crow King be killed by Leoric? There is such a good precedent, why do these guys still doubt Leoric's power?" ? Are they courting death?"

Zhuoge Camus laughed and said, "Well, barbarians, reasoning doesn't work, unless you beat him up, you won't be convinced."

"Then will Leoric beat them?" Qiqi's tone emphasized that "it's not a big deal to watch the excitement".

"Who knows?" Drogcamus said with a shrug, "as long as these guys aren't too stupid."

……

It was dawn, and the sound of practice had already been heard outside the wolf city.

In the past few days, Leoric has been stepping up his training of soldiers in order to deal with the war that may occur next.

So far, Leoric has bought a lot of goods from the library of truth, and these "truths" are a kind of knowledge that can be disseminated.He recently tried to extract the essence of various truths and wrote a book "On a Strong Army".

"On a Strong Army" contains many contents, such as the way of cavalry drill extracted from "The Way of Chivalry"; Various shooting techniques and shooting training methods in "Shooters".In addition, there are some simple animal languages ​​that allow knights to communicate directly with war horses.

At the same time, Leoric gave full play to his expertise as a time traveler, writing part of modern military understanding into the textbook.Although he was only a fancier-level military fan in his previous life, some modern and mature military theories - such as information warfare, mobile warfare, guerrilla warfare... as long as these viewpoints are written, they can give great inspiration to the regiment leaders. Next, the specific practice part , they will naturally perfect it in actual combat.

In addition, Leoric also consulted the opinions of experts around him.For example, those two heroic spirits——when the King of Northern Xinjiang was alive, he was a ruthless man who kicked barbarians and tore the devil with his hands. He is no problem with the small army; the other is the Crow King. Although the Crow King lost to Leoric, he has far more experience in leading troops to fight than Leoric, mainly because he lost a hand of holy relics.Moreover, the crow king's logistics and supplies are exceptionally good, so there must be something extraordinary about it.Leoric asked these two famous generals to write out their abilities, and also compiled them into "On a Strong Army".

The king of the northern border had this intention, and when he heard that Leoric was like him to learn from him, he immediately agreed; the crow king was afraid of being struck by lightning, so he couldn't agree.The two wrote down their years of experience in marching and fighting, and then Leoric summarized and compiled these materials and entered them into "On a Strong Army".

In the end, Lao Li thought of General Akkad again, this veteran is also very capable.Akkad has rich combat experience and high military accomplishments, but because the plateau people are too poor, Akkad is not as successful as those two.Leoric used the flower fairy to contact General Akkad, and sent him the draft of the theory of strengthening the army, asking him to express his opinions and make comments.Combining the characteristics of the contemporary plateau army, the old man made another improvement to the content of the military book, and finally sent it to Leoric for the final draft.

I have to say that Leoric's "On a Strong Army" is really effective.As soon as it was published, the heads of the major groups read the book all night long. Whether it was the violent Growin, the steady veteran Bloser, or the quick-witted Philip, everyone read it carefully.Leoric's "On a Strong Army" combines the truth of the times, the experience of famous generals, the summary of actual combat and other essences, which can be called broad and profound. There are a thousand Hamlets in the eyes of a thousand people, and there are a thousand different truths in this masterpiece among a thousand leaders.

Regardless of whether they like to read or not, the heads of the group all patiently read this time. They just forgot to sleep and eat for a week, and basically finished reading the whole book.Afterwards, this group of big bosses actually held a reading club for the first time, summing up their experience and expressing their opinions.In the second week, everyone began to put the theory into practice, and began to train troops according to the content of "On a Strong Army".

After just a short month of training like this, the military appearance of the Northern Expeditionary Army has been refreshed, and it has a little bit of the meaning of a regular army in Leoric's mind.In this situation, to put it bluntly, the Northern Expeditionary Army has a lot of room for improvement; to put it bluntly, it is the former Taiji Bacai!Most of the previous victories were due to the superman Leoric. Ordinary soldiers were inferior to barbarians in terms of martial arts, tactics, and discipline.Now after some formal training, it finally makes sense.

In order to increase the collective sense of honor and motivate the soldiers to train, Leoric set up a monthly "legion contest".Make a ranking, mount the honor on the wall, and give out gold rewards, so that everyone will be more motivated and can select outstanding talents.In the first month's "Legion Tournament", there were a dozen very good fighters.Among them are those with high martial arts skills, those with excellent riding skills, and those with all-round development. Leoric put these "journey champions" into the roster, and then compiled them into the "Royal Knights" under his personal management. "—that is, the former Leoric Guards.

Leoric intends to build an elite army of less than a thousand people, not seeking quantity, but quality, these people will follow him through life and death, and carry out the most dangerous and important missions.

Leoric walked out of the room at this time and came to the platform on the third floor, where he could overlook the back square of the castellan's mansion.Leoric's soldiers are practicing swordsmanship in the back square. For these elites, Leoric's requirements will be higher. He requires these people not only to master simple and practical "battlefield swordsmanship", but also to learn more Exquisite "assassination swordsmanship".Assassination swordsmanship is an advanced version, with a more accent and skill, less open and close moves, more skills and tricks, but it is also more deadly.Assassination swordsmanship is suitable for one-on-one combat and belongs to the tactics of special forces.

Leoric scanned the audience with the eyesight blessed by the Crow's Eye, checking the training of the soldiers.

At this moment, he narrowed his eyes and shouted loudly: "Birger! The footwork is messed up! How did I teach you? Butterfly! The steps are leaping like butterflies!"

"Yes, Marshal!"

Birger, it was a young knight with a black cropped cut. He was agile and energetic.Although this man is young, he has actually fought with Leoric for a long time.When the Crow King's camp was attacked at night, his name was among the eight hundred cavalrymen.Later, he guarded Wolf City, and he went into battle with injuries, and rushed to kill on the city wall with Leoric, and later followed Leoric to the south to suppress the rebellion, beheading 36 heads in both the Battle of Wangcheng and the Battle of Haiyan City, He also killed a centurion, which is considered an outstanding military exploit as an ordinary soldier.

Leoric admired the young man, he was hardworking, obeyed orders, and he was quite smart.Take sword learning as an example, he was one of the first among this group of soldiers to master the assassination swordsmanship. Although his current swordsmanship is not as good as that of Shia and Leoric, it is no less than those Head.

It's a pity that the injury caused him to fall to the root of the disease, and he is still a little limping now.This makes his footwork always worse than others when he is training.

At this time, the soldiers below the square were fighting fiercely.Leoric came to inspect the training situation, and everyone was very excited, hoping to perform well in front of King Leoric.However, if you want to show martial arts, does the opponent want to be a stake?impossible.Therefore, the fighting became more and more intense. Although the wooden sword was fighting, the fighting was full of murderous aura.

Leoric was interested, and said with a smile, "What did you hit! Let me demonstrate to you." Then, he turned over and jumped off the balcony on the third floor.Seeing Leoric soaring into the sky, everyone below exclaimed. Every floor of the city lord's mansion is very tall, not to mention the third floor, even if he jumped from the first floor, he might sprain his feet.Moreover, there is a hard green brick floor under the balcony, even if a cat falls on it, it will hurt for a long time.

However, Leoric did a backflip, and his feet landed firmly on the ground.He didn't even roll over to unload the force when he landed, and abruptly used his feet to shake the blue brick into a crack.If it was an ordinary person, jumping from the third floor, not to mention falling to death, would probably break his leg, but Leoric was unscathed after falling, and his body was still as straight as a pine tree.So the soldiers of the pro-guard applauded one after another.

Leoric nodded with a smile, and walked towards the crowd——this beep was made him pretend.In the past, if Leoric jumped from this height, he would have broken his leg.Even with double buffs, it won't work. After all, the power of blood and the stimulation of potential can only increase attack acceleration, but they can't make his body stronger.

However, after Pecking fully awakened, this situation changed.

The effect of "Eyepecker III: Scavenging Crow" allows Leoric to absorb the power of the corpse after killing a powerful enemy, and comprehensively strengthen himself. As soon as he got this power, Leoric slaughtered a copycat Cthulhu, the attributes are full.Now his skin is as strong as wearing leather armor, and the density and strength of his bones have also increased significantly. He can jump casually from heights as high as the third floor, but only on the fifth floor will he hurt his feet.Of course, that kind of minor injury healed in a few minutes.

Leoric stepped into the crowd and said, "Give me a wooden sword."

Immediately, a person next to him offered it with both hands, "Marshal, wooden sword!"

Leoric took the sword, played with it, and said: "I looked at it, and none of you out of hundreds of people can understand the footwork well! I just called Birger and said he If the footwork is not good, it is because he still needs to give advice, and the rest of you are in a mess at all, I want to give advice to all of you who don't know how to do it!"

Leoric deliberately humiliated them and stimulated their competitive spirit. Sure enough, everyone felt ashamed, and many of them blushed visible to the naked eye.Leoric continued: "Don't blame me for being strict, soldiers! If you don't sweat a lot in training, you will bleed on the battlefield! If you don't practice your footwork well, your head will be chopped off on the battlefield! Come on, you guys, Come and besiege me, and I will demonstrate it for you.”

Leoric has heard a saying in his previous life, "Teaching fists not steps, teach steps to beat the master", which means that the footwork of the feet is more important than the kung fu of the hands, and the same principle can be applied to swordsmanship.In the swordsmanship encyclopedia that Leoric comprehended, a large part of the chapters taught footwork.Footwork is first and foremost for life-saving,

You can find the enemy's flaws while avoiding the attack. As long as the footwork is in place, sometimes you don't need any particularly delicate sword moves, just poke according to the flaws, and the enemy will be killed on the spot.

It's just that this thing is easy to say, but it's very difficult to learn. Only a genius swordsman like Shia can learn the essence. As for other people, it's already great if they can learn two or three points.

At this time Leoric asked four people to besiege him, simulating the situation of being surrounded by people on the battlefield.Many soldiers spread out in the square, leaving an open space for them so that the marshal could demonstrate moves for them.The four lucky ones named by Leoric stood around him with wooden swords, each putting on airs, ready to fight.

One of them asked: "Marshal, don't you wear protective gear?"

Leoric smiled and said, "Oh? It seems that you are very concerned about my health! Do you think you can hurt me?"

Chapter 240 Eight: One Fights Four Anti-kills Four

The man didn't know how to answer, so after thinking about it, he said tactfully, "A sword has no eyes, Your Majesty!"

Although it was a trial with a wooden sword, but if the wooden sword was poked on the chest, it could break the ribs if it was pressed hard.Therefore, the soldiers wore double-layer protective equipment of cotton armor and leather armor on their torsos.Leoric was only wearing a single shirt and was about to fight. Everyone believed in his skills, but they were also afraid that if they stabbed the king and marshal with a sword, would they have to eat as much as they could?

Hearing this, Leoric smiled and said, "If you can really hurt me, I won't blame you, and I will immediately make you the head of the "Swordsman Group"! Don't worry, just start fighting!"

The head of the Northern Expedition had a very high status, almost the ceiling of honor that soldiers dreamed of.Upon hearing this, the four swordsmen stopped worrying, and one of them shouted: "Here we come!" He said and killed him.

Although eager to win, these four people still talked about martial arts, and they didn't attack together. First, the two of them pinched Leoric one after the other.One stabs with a sword, the other slashes with it.Leoric saw with his eyes in front and listened with his ears in the back. He immediately dodged two moves, and at the same time slapped the weapon of the man in front with his wooden sword, "Bang!" A huge force knocked the man holding the sword arms on the ground.
