Chapter 287 Xuanwu rejects the corpse (Happy May Day)
In the big tent, an undercurrent began to surge.
Demon King Kuihu's eyes began to become sharp, the demonic aura around him gradually solidified, and a huge aura began to gather.
Everyone and the demons felt short of breath, the aura of heaven and earth in the air seemed to have lost its vitality, a heavy burden was placed on their shoulders, their heartbeats accelerated, their nerves were tense, and they felt like they were going to die suddenly in the next moment.
The old servant disguised as the Snake Demon King was standing behind the three of them. At this time, he couldn't help but his body started to tremble, and he was panicking.
"This Monster King Kuihu is stronger than it was two hundred years ago! At the time of the demon gathering, it was only in the middle stage of Nascent Soul. Now, except for the tiger head, tiger claws, and tiger tail that have not transformed, the rest are basically in human form. It’s the same, it shouldn’t be the case.”
"No wonder, no wonder Yuanlu Demon King's talents are still suppressed and beaten by him to this day."
"Young man Zhong has hit a brick wall now, but don't be too clever to be fooled by your cleverness. It's best to take back your arrogance in time."
"If you want to die, don't drag me with you. I still have a lot of things to do. It would be too frustrating to be accidentally injured just after taking over the body!"
……
The Snake Demon King was extremely anxious, but he did not dare to send a message to Zhong Shenxiu for fear of being discovered by the Kuihu Demon King, who would then even sit down and click it.
I can only pray silently in my heart.
The other twelve Golden Core-stage demon generals stopped their movements one by one and looked at Demon King Kuihu. They waited for the boss's order to tear these junior human beings into pieces.
Lin Shan silently clenched the Wind Escape Talisman on his sleeves, his back wet with cold sweat.
The stars on Young Master Jiuyou's fingertips flickered faintly, and his body was slightly arched like an unsheathed sword.
At this time, Zhong Shenxiu did not restrain himself, but took advantage of the situation and stood up.
"That's right! The king seems to be at the top of his game, but in fact his life energy is out of tune, his fortune is out of whack, and he is in danger of falling!"
Demon King Kuihu sneered: "Oh? It's interesting. This is the first time I see someone dare to talk to me like this!"
Zhong Shenxiu walked to the middle, waved his sleeves and gestured calmly to the demon generals to calm down, and those who didn't know thought this was his home.
"That's because loyal advice is harsh to the ears, and good medicine is bitter to the mouth. The king is the overlord of this place. Normally, no monster dares to disobey. The majesty is getting stronger and stronger day by day. Therefore, there are only flatterers below, but no ministers who dare to speak out and remonstrate!"
"!!!"
As soon as these words came out, Mr. Yan felt offended and frowned slightly.
The demon generals below were not clear-headed and could not quite understand. They just looked at Demon King Kuihu stupidly.
Demon King Kuihu did not comment. He took a swig from the wine jar and placed it heavily on the table with a cold look in his eyes.
"Junior human being, tell me what you have to say quickly. If you can convince me that you are ugly and ugly, then I will forgive you for your rude behavior just now! If you can't tell me, then don't blame me for not giving Bai Lu The academy has gained face.”
In the eyes of Demon King Kuihu, White Deer Academy is certainly a powerful force among the Lu people, but it is not afraid of anyone in the forbidden land of the cliff, so it naturally has no worries.
Zhong Shenxiu bowed and started his performance.
Lin Shan, Young Master Jiuyou, and the Snake Demon King below were all sweating for him.
"Your Majesty, please listen to me slowly
Once upon a time, a great war broke out in the mortal realm of mankind. The two warring parties were the State of Wei and the State of Qi.
The two countries were evenly matched, and they had been fighting for several years without a clear winner. However, since the Ming Dynasty succeeded to the throne, Wei State had reformed and worked hard to govern. As a result, its national power became stronger and stronger, and it gradually began to gain the upper hand.
The commander-in-chief of Wei State personally led his elite troops to engage in a decisive battle with the Qi army, intending to determine the outcome and determine the overlordship in one battle.
The commander-in-chief of Qi State knew that he was outmatched, so he listened to the advice of his military advisers. In view of Wei State's menacing approach and contempt for the enemy, he carefully studied the battlefield terrain and made a plan to reduce the number of enemies to lure the enemy and set up ambushes to annihilate them.
The commander-in-chief of the State of Wei fought successively with victorious battles and pursued the victory all the way. He saw the Qi army retreating and fleeing in all directions. After each defeat, he became less active every day and arbitrarily believed that the Qi army suffered heavy losses and more than half of its soldiers were killed or injured.
So he was careless and led the Wei army to follow him all the way, chasing him to death, intending to annihilate this effective force, swallow up the enemy's elite troops, and even attack Huanglong.
Finally, after going deep into the hinterland of Qi State, due to the hardship along the way, being isolated and helpless, and being too complacent, the Qi army, which was guarded here to wait for work, took advantage of the terrain, fired thousands of crossbows, ambushed troops on all sides, and then the entire army was annihilated!
Since then, Qi has made a desperate comeback, shattering Wei's ambition to dominate in one fell swoop.
The commander-in-chief of the Wei State, because he underestimated the enemy and advanced rashly, was caught in a full ambush and died on the spot. The imperial hegemony was all in vain."
……
At this point, Zhong Shenxiu looked directly at Demon King Kuihu and smiled without saying a word.
The demon generals in the tent were confused and confused as to what this human being was talking about.
However, Lin Shan, Young Master Jiuyou, and the Ming Snake Demon King could hear it, and each of them was thoughtful, secretly looking forward to the reaction of the Demon King Kuihu.
Although Demon King Kuihu is upright, he is not stupid. At this time, he also heard the implication of Zhong Shenxiu's words.
"What do you mean, sometimes the victory can't be just for a moment, but should be taken into consideration for the whole life, and look at the overall situation, show what you can't do when you can, show when you don't use it, and fake defeat in the front line to lure the enemy?"
"That's right! Your Majesty is wise!"
"So at this moment.?"
"Just like that time!"
Zhong Shenxiu was in high spirits and looked into the eyes of Demon King Kuihu, doing his part!
Time fell silent for a moment.
“So brave!”
Demon King Kuihu stood up and shouted loudly!
He whirred for no reason, and everyone in the tent was suddenly startled!
Lin Shan was no exception. His heartstrings were always tense, and he almost used the Wind Escape Talisman to escape. He cursed in his heart, why does the Kuihu Demon King like to make noises? Could it be that there are also members of the Nightingale Organization in the demon clan? ?
Zhong Shenxiu was not moved at all. His mental strength was so strong that even others could not help but secretly praise him.
Demon King Kuihu stood up, and the flames of the brazier around him swayed instantly.
"Boy Zhong, do you mean that I am the commander-in-chief of the Wei State who fell into a trap and died, and Demon King Yuanlu is the leader of the Qi army who set up an ambush to annihilate him?"
"Your Majesty is wise!"
Zhong Shenxiu cupped his fists and answered simply and neatly.
"How to see it?"
Unexpectedly, Demon King Kuihu was very generous and not only did not get angry, he actually asked questions on the spot.
Zhong Shenxiu seemed to have guessed the character of Demon King Kuihu a long time ago, and explained it calmly at this time.
"The king and the Yuanlu Demon King are both famous leaders of one party. Because of the differences in the camps, they gradually evolved into a fight to the death.
The King has always been the overlord of the southern part of the Cliff Forbidden Land. He is undoubtedly the strongest in terms of strength and influence.
Although Demon King Yuanlu has been able to fight against the great king for two hundred years, his knowledge is still shallow and his firepower is insufficient, so he loses more than he wins and is often at a disadvantage.
Therefore, if it wants to defeat or even replace the king, it will never succeed in a head-on confrontation unless it uses clever tricks. This is a gap in hard power that cannot be changed overnight. ”
Demon King Kuihu nodded. These are all truths, and they are also situations that any demon with a clear eye can see.
However, although it has always had the upper hand, the Yuanlu Demon King has a huge population of herbivorous monsters, so there is no way to destroy it. It has only been held in two for hundreds of years.
Zhong Shenxiu returns to the previous topic:
"In the past month, since the beginning of the war, the king has won consecutive battles and is invincible. He has beheaded and killed more than ten thousand enemies. He defeated the Yuanlu Demon King and retreated in panic."
"As a barrier to his base camp, Hongya Cave, the Hongya Ye Plain was also dug through by the king, thousands of miles deep, and was only a few inches away from being directly attacked by Huanglong. Once it was destroyed, he was exiled to the end of the world."
< br>
"This life-and-death moment is also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If you can use this to set up an ambush on all sides, leave a pocket formation, and wait for the king to underestimate the enemy and plunge in."
"At that time, the enemy was hidden and we were clear, waiting for work at leisure, and then taking advantage of the unexpected terrain to attack my tired army head-on. It might be possible to recreate the scene of the battle between Qi and Wei in the past!" "What do you think, Your Majesty?"
< br>
……
Demon King Kuihu lowered his eyes and began to think deeply.
Mr. Yan next to him was not so easy to fool. He felt that although Zhong Shenxiu was very courageous, he was a bit talkative.
"Although what Zhong Xiaoyou said is not unreasonable, it only applies to wars between mortal kingdoms. The war between my king and the Yuanlu Demon King is a war between demon clans. In many cases, the battle is actually about the hardness of both sides. Strength, most of the so-called strategies are just machinations, and conspiracies are vulnerable to absolute strength.”
Zhong Shenxiu shook his head, stretched out two fingers and shook them.
"Mr. Yan, what you said is wrong. As you said, most things based on absolute strength are conspiracy. But between the king and Yuanlu Demon King, even if they have a slight advantage in strength, they are not absolutely crushing. The degree has been in a state of barely equilibrium for two hundred years.”
"When the two parties are in a stalemate, strategies can sometimes play a key role. They can even influence the balance of a battle and become the weight of a turning point. How can we not guard against it!"
"As the saying goes, soldiers are important matters of the country, the place of life and death, and the path to survival. We must not ignore it."
……
Mr. Yao thinks that he has read a lot of books and has been a military advisor to the demon clan for so many years. He should know more than Zhong Shenxiu, a young boy from the academy, and he doesn't take his seriousness seriously.
At the same time, he was also dissatisfied with what Zhong Shenxiu said just now, "There are only flatterers left, but no ministers who dare to speak out and remonstrate." Because the goodwill of White Deer Academy was gone, he took the opportunity to attack.
"Okay! Since you said that Yuanlu Demon King will use tricks on the king, where does the basis come from? Is it just because the king has won consecutive battles? If he has to look forward and backward every time he wins a battle, wouldn't it mean that he has lost a battle? Are you at ease?”
Zhong Shenxiu walked slowly and steplessly in the open space in the center of the tent, making circles with his hands behind his back.
"The method of using troops depends on the favorable weather, time and place. Don't face the high hills, don't turn against the hills on your back, don't pretend to follow from the north, don't attack the sharp soldiers, don't feed the bait soldiers, don't contain the troops when they return, besieged the troops and don't pursue them."
"These are the eight iron rules of victory in the military competition for geographical advantages."
"Monster King Yuanlu pretended to retreat to the north, spreading bait to lure the enemy. Our troops were suppressed and returned to the main force. They pursued and attacked fiercely. They accounted for half of the eight troops. How dare Mr. Yan call it without deceit?"
……
"This"
Mr. Yan stood there dumbfounded for a moment. It had also memorized the book of war. It seemed that it had heard this sentence before. It was said by the great military strategist, so naturally it could not be refuted.
Demon King Kuihu didn't care about this, but asked directly: "So, according to what little friend Zhong sees, how can Demon King Yuanlu ambush me?"
Zhong Shenxiu did not shirk, but directly clasped his fists: "Your Majesty, please lend me the map of Hongyaye!"
Demon King Kuihu turned his head and signaled. Mr. Yao quickly found a scroll from the pile of bamboo slips beside the desk, shook it out and hung it on the curtain of the big tent.
"Wow~"
On the mountains, rivers and plains above, various terrains are roughly marked, and some special places are marked with symbols. It is obvious that Mr. Nong, a military strategist, has done a good job in conducting reconnaissance and mapping of the opponent's territory.
Lin Shan, Young Master Jiuyou, and the Snake Demon King hurriedly watched below, trying their best to imprint the nearby terrain into their minds so that they could have a clear idea of what to do in the future.
Zhong Shenxiu didn't care so much. He stood in front of the map and scanned it several times, touched his chin and began to think.
In less than half a quarter of an hour, he was stroking his hands and laughing.
"Hahahahaha, I already know Yuanlu Demon King's plan!"
The eyes of all the monsters on the field were wide open, and they were not aware of it. Mr. Yao next to him was also searching suspiciously, but also found nothing.
Demon King Kuihu looked friendly at this time. He noticed Zhong Shenxiu's confidence and his tone became friendly.
"Little friend, don't be so pretentious, please help me clear up my doubts."
"Your Majesty, please look!"
Zhong Shenxiu pointed his finger at a certain point on the map. There were four low hills on the plain here. At first glance, they looked unremarkable. A green belt of pearls snaked past, disappeared along the acupuncture points, and poured into the underground river.
"This is the place where Xuanwu refuses corpses, and it is also the place where no one is buried after death!"
Everyone was shocked and quickly raised their eyes to focus on this place.
Zhong Shenxiu is well-read and well-informed. Despite his young age, he can serve as the supervisor of White Deer Academy. He is a person who can teach in class!
"The earth has four potentials, and Qi comes from all directions. Therefore, in the burial, there is a green dragon on the left, a white tiger on the right, a red bird in the front, and a Xuanwu in the back. The Xuanwu bows his head, the red bird dances, the green dragon meanders, and the white tiger tamely bows. The situation is reversed, and the method When broken to death ”
"The Qi travels in the earth. Its movement depends on the force of the earth. Its accumulation depends on the force of the force."
Everyone and the demon in the big tent were confused and couldn't understand what he was talking about.
Zhong Shenxiu had no choice but to try her best to explain:
"The momentum is so high that it does not stop. Even if the pulse has been exhausted, it is high and there is no supporting attitude, and it is rejected without wanting to accept it, it is also a serious disaster.
Also, when the Xuanwu Mountain comes, if it is not bent down, but abrupt and broken, and the head of the Xuanwu Mountain is not visible, it is called the Xuanwu Zangtou, which is also unlucky. ”
Demon King Kuihu and the demon generals are still in the dark, but they can roughly understand that this place is very unlucky.
Although Mr. Yan has also read books, how can he compare with someone like Zhong Shenxiu who was born in a major? At this time, I had no choice but to be cowardly and silent, listening to him shaking his head and talking.
"The place where Xuanwu refuses corpses is a good place for a natural ambush! If Demon King Yuanlu sets up an ambush here, lays down a large number of restrictions, and inspires the evil spirits of the four elephants and gathers the power of all the monsters, he can use the layout to create a killer Big formation!”
"The sky droops, the stars repeat, the Milky Way rolls back, and the mountains and rivers collapse."
"At that time, if you are unprepared, even if a top expert rushes in along the route of chasing the enemy without knowing it, you may die or die!"
……
"Hiss~"
Several people on the field took a breath of cold air, as if they didn't expect that there were only four inconspicuous low hills on the map, but there was such a danger hidden there? !
Mr. Yan's face is pale, it really can't be seen!
Lin Shan, Young Master Jiuyou, Ming Snake Demon King and others opened their mouths, not sure whether they should believe it or not. After all, they were just four short hills. Is it really that mysterious?
Demon King Kuihu was also stunned for a moment. What Zhong Shenxiu said seemed to make sense?
Zhong Shenxiu was secretly proud. With his knowledge and knowledge, was it not easy to deceive these uneducated bumpkins? Even those who have read the book may not be able to withstand his deception!
As for Xuanwu rejecting corpse
There is indeed such a place in this world, and it is indeed a dangerous place.
But he, Zhong Shenxiu, had never seen it with his own eyes, so how could he guess it just by looking at the map? It was just to gain the trust of Demon King Kuihu and carry out the next purpose he wanted to achieve.
……
However.
What they don't know is.
Thousands of miles away from here, there is a land surrounded by four hills and low mountains.
The Yuanlu Demon King is wearing a white coat, with twelve branches of antlers on his head. He looks around with his sword, climbing high and looking into the distance. From time to time, he glances at the valley basin, looking at the tens of thousands of busy little demons under him, with a strong look of hope in his eyes. , murmuring inaudibly.
"The place where Xuanwu refuses corpses is where the old guy Kui Hu buries his bones. I have been waiting for this day for a long time."
