Chapter 860

What should come will always come. Fear is of no use.

From the first day they entered ghost mountain, they knew that the war outside would spread here one day.

They are not afraid of fighting. They would rather die than become ruminant dogs of Jin!

Shangguanqing and Tang Yueshan returned to the village first.

Gu Jiao continues to guard Xuanyuan Qi at the entrance of the cave.

He guarded others for most of his life. This is probably the first time that someone guarded him in obscurity.

Gu Jiao sat cross legged on his side, gave him a deep look and said softly, "you must remember quickly, xuanyuanqi."

……

Tang Yueshan didn't sleep again after he went back. He stood at the entrance of the village with a big bow on his back and stared at the direction of the forest.

When it was cloudy, a ghost soldier quickly came from the forest and found Shangguan Qing to report: "the people of Jin have sent troops! Coming in the direction of ghost mountain! "

Shangguan Qing asked, "how many troops have they come?"

The ghost soldier opened his mouth and said, "twenty thousand."

Shangguanqing put his hands behind him and frowned.

Obviously, the figure exceeded his expectations.

Gongsun Yu even sent 20000 regular troops to deal with only 300 bandits in ghost mountain. He really looks down on ghost mountain.

"Tell me not to make a fire in the morning and do everything as planned." Shangguanqing ordered.

"Yes!" After receiving the order, the ghost soldier quickly returned to the forest.

Tang Yueshan entered his house and asked, "is the Jin army coming to kill?"

Shangguan Qing said, looking not as light as last night.

"20000 troops." He said.

Tang Yueshan's eyes trembled: "what? Twenty, twenty thousand? Is Gongsun Yu crazy! Against a ghost mountain, 20000! "

Shangguan Qing said, "Gongsun Yu's grandfather once buried the ghost mountain. Maybe he was unusually angry at the ghost mountain... But you're right. He's really crazy."

Tang Yueshan asked, "is there a retreat route? What's behind the back mountain? "

Shangguan Qing said, "it's a lake, an endless lake."

There's no way to return.

Tang Yueshan said again, "what about the East and west sides?"

Shangguanqing said, "it's also a lake to cross the mountain. There are not enough boats in the village. "

Tang Yueshan felt that the situation was not good: "that..."

Shangguan Qing suddenly looked relaxed: "don't worry too much. Ghost mountain is not as vulnerable as you think. Although 20000 Jin troops are very difficult, they can't fight and hide. Can't they still hide? Hide in the imperial court's troops to recapture Pucheng, and we will be safe. "

Tang Yueshan looked at him strangely. Half a quarter of an hour later, Tang Yueshan understood that he was serious.

He banged the stone clock at the entrance of the village for three times.

In a moment, the villagers came out of the house one after another, all ready to go.

Tang Yueshan was stunned: "isn't it? So soon? "

Shangguanqing enjoyed the expression bag contributed by Tang Yueshan on the spot. He picked his eyebrow and said, "it was packed up last night."

Or are the villagers doing farm work when they don't sleep so late?

From the moment the Jin army entered the mountain, he immediately started the emergency plan. Although it was a few days earlier than expected, it was harmless.

Tang Yueshan: "I'll go ahead."

Shangguan Qing said, "no, you are responsible for protecting the villagers. The ghost soldiers in front will withdraw soon."

The day is not the home of ghost mountain. If you can't win, shangguanqing won't make fearless sacrifice.

Tang Yueshan looked up at Guan Qing unexpectedly. The child had a convincing courage. He was still so young, but he was calm, brave and resourceful, but not radical.

Is it an illusion?

Why do I suddenly think of Lao Xiao?

There is a mechanism in the ancient well in the village. When it is opened, a hole will appear on the well wall.

Shangguanqing arranged two ghost soldiers who were familiar with the secret road to take the lead, and then evacuated the villagers one by one into the channel.

What shocked Tang Yueshan was that no one was frightened and cried from the old Kui Kui to the three-year-old children, and there was no panic of scrambling.

Everyone obeyed the arrangement of shangguanqing.

This is an unreserved trust.

He thought of Xuanping Hou again.

The man of Marquis Xuanping looked unseemly, but everywhere he went, the people were excited about it.

Once upon a time, he blamed the face of Xuanping Hou, but the boy didn't show his face at all——

Shangguan Qing looked back and interrupted his thoughts: "it's you, marshal Tang."

The tiger body of Tang Yueshan was shocked.

wait! I didn't seem to say I was the Grand Marshal! I only said my last name is Tang!

... did the girl say that?

Well, it must be.

The boy won't know him!

Tang Yueshan and shangguanqing also entered the channel in the ancient well. The entrance looked small, but it was not narrow after entering. Tang Yueshan's fat middle-aged body didn't seem crowded when crawling inside.

And after climbing ten feet, the passage becomes higher and wider, and you can walk with your body bent.

"Are the ghost soldiers still behind?" Asked Tang Yueshan.

Shangguanqing stooped and walked in front of him: "well, they'll come later."

Tang Yueshan: "then?"

Shangguanqing: "then this passage will be sealed."

In fact, this means that they have given up the village, but if they keep the green mountains, they don't worry about firewood. If people live, they have the hope of rebuilding their homes.

I don't know how long I've been walking underground. The more I walk, the wider the passage becomes. When I get to the back, I can even walk upright.

The candlestick on the wall of the passage has been lit, and the fire is reflected on everyone's face.

Tang Yueshan followed slowly at the end. He thought of something. He asked, "by the way, there are channels in the woods where the war was fought yesterday? What if the Jin army found out? "

Shangguan Qing paused and sighed, "that would be miserable."

……

Xie Xingzhou led 20000 troops into ghost mountain. With him were elder Lu of Jianlu and two disciples with excellent martial arts.

Xie Xingzhou and his party rode horses while the others walked.

It's not that they are reluctant to cavalry, but the terrain of ghost mountain is not suitable for cavalry combat.

"Didn't you find anything after searching for a long time?" Xie Xingzhou asked, "elder Lu, are you sure you fought in this forest last night?"

"I'm sure, and there must be mechanisms and arrays in the forest," said old Lu

Xie Xingzhou said, "but we have searched for an hour and found nothing."

"General!"

A soldier lying on the ground suddenly shouted, "here's a passage!"

Xie Xingzhou hurriedly rode over. When he came to the entrance, the soldier had gone down.

Not long after, the soldiers came up with a disheartened face, picked up a skeleton claw and said, "there are all channels below, leading to different places. They should be playing tricks under here!"

Xie Xingzhou told the two deputy generals, "take people down to search."

"Yes!"

Considering that the ghost soldiers fought insidiously and could destroy min Hongyi's 500 Jin army with 300 troops, they brought a lot of people down.

They made a major discovery in the passage. The skeletons that broke through the ground, the bleeding trees and the bodies of birds were all organs inside!

A bunch of ghosts!

Xie Xingzhou said faintly, "it seems that it will be over soon."

As soon as he had finished, a terrible explosion suddenly sounded under the ground, the ground shook, and then a series of screams came from the channel!

Xie Xingzhou's face changed: "what's the matter! Answer me! "

The only thing that answered him was scream.

"So it's terrible." Shangguanqing said, "once the self destruction mechanism is started, it is impossible to leave any alive. Moreover, it will cut off the access to the village forever. "

"Wow." Tang Yueshan was secretly amazed.

What did you say?

It's better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books. This trip to the state of Yan is a good student and gives him insight.

It turns out that war can still be fought like this.

Tang Yueshan said with sincere admiration, "how did you think of digging so many tunnels? And set up such a clever mechanism? "

Shangguan Qing said, "it's not me. When I came to ghost mountain, there were various underground channels. I just explored how to use those mechanisms."

Follow the pamphlet from the old ghost king!

This can't be said, otherwise how to pretend to force?

The last ghost soldier also entered the channel, and the entrance to the wellhead was completely blocked by mechanism boulders.

They walked a little further and came to a natural underground cave.

The cave is big and long, with streams flowing by.

The villagers and the ghost soldiers sat on the ground together.

There is an inexhaustible source of water here, and we have prepared enough dry food. Even if we hide it for a month, it is not a problem.

If it hadn't been for what he saw with his own eyes, Tang Yueshan couldn't believe that such a miraculous project existed in the world.

What God and man dug this?

Why dig?

Tang Yueshan asked, "will the Jin army dig three feet?"

"No." Shangguanqing said, "I put a boat on the lake in Dongshan and made some signs of escape on the shore. They should think we left by boat overnight."

"No wonder you told everyone not to make a fire in the morning." If there was a fire in the morning, the Jin army would know that they were still there last night, so the boat on the lake must not go far.

But if you escape overnight, it's not surprising that you can't see the boat on the lake.

The kid King's plan is really flawless. Lao Xiao, I found a cunning guy like you!

When I turn him back and recognize him as a dry son, you'll still be in front of me in the future!

Tang Yueshan said again, "the back of the mountain..."

Shangguan Qing said, "you've been to the back mountain yourself. The ghost King's nest is very hidden. The Jin army can't find it."

That's true.

Then the next step is to wait in the cave.

When the Jin army left voluntarily, or the imperial court attacked and forced them to leave.

The latter is more likely.

Lao Xiao, Lao Xiao, we are trapped in ghost mountain. You must call early.
