However, he was blocked by He Hui, and the Hou of Hefei had already run far, and he said to He Qi who was following him with tears: "Your father and son are loyal, and this Hou will not lose in the future." ”

He Qi saw his father's tragic death with his own eyes, and his heart was really like a knife, but his leg had already broken, and he read his father's instructions before leaving, and only beat the horse like a fly silently with tears, without even raising his head. Ling Cao, who was on the other side, said: "What Hou Ye said is very true, victory and defeat are a common thing in soldiers, as long as we can return to Jiangdong, with Hou Ye's virtuous name and benevolence, we will definitely be able to recruit heroes from all over the world to vote, why not worry about not making a comeback and avenging this arrow?" ”

Ling Cao was injured by Zhao Yun the night before and was unable to use weapons, so he was also arranged to retreat with the Marquis of Hefei in the first batch. He looked back, and the pursuers behind him were already far away, and there were many chaotic soldiers in the middle, so it was estimated that there was no threat.

The water flowed slowly, occasionally with a few small ripples, and the sound of the water made the night seem more quiet. Hefei Hou quietly followed behind Ling Caoma, and suddenly sighed: "I have been familiar with military books since I was a child, and I have been lying on my salary for so many years, I thought that I could dominate the world, but I don't want to suffer such a big defeat today, is it really not my destiny?" ”

Ling Cao said: "Master Hou doesn't have to worry too much, we also have 350,000 horses stationed in Ruzhou, as long as we can reach Ruzhou smoothly, we can attack and retreat and defend." If the Son of Heaven does not pursue this matter, it is very good, if it is investigated, the Hou Ye can rely on the city to protect himself, and at the same time issue a military order, ordering Qingxu Yan and Yang to raise the five states at the same time, then the Central Plains will inevitably be in chaos, and we will plan from it, maybe we can find a situation of dividing the river and ruling the country. ”

Hefei Hou laughed miserably: "I know you said this just to comfort me, but ......", before he finished his words, He Qi suddenly shouted: "No, there is something in the water." ”

The guards who followed the Hou of Hefei were all carefully selected, not only strong in martial arts but also clever and clever, as soon as they heard He Qi's words, they immediately scattered around to search and guard, just like they trained on weekdays.

But there was no need to search any more, and not far in front of them, a huge whirlpool was rapidly generating, and judging by the splash, it seemed that something strange was swimming rapidly beneath the surface. The whirlpool is getting bigger and bigger, the water is getting faster and faster, and the monsters under the water are becoming more and more active, and before Ling Cao can send people forward, he only heard a loud noise, and a huge head poked out of the broken water, and two giant lantern-like eyes stared at Hefei Hou fixedly.

Ling Cao was startled, and regardless of the wound on his arm, he forcibly raised his weapon to meet the enemy, but the Hou of Hefei sighed and said, "This, isn't it the Luoshu Divine Turtle?" ”

Ling Cao looked at it intently, this head looked like a turtle but not a turtle, like a turtle but not a turtle, indescribably ugly and hideous, how could it be a little like a turtle? However, this thing seems to be huge, and it seems to be quite supernatural, and from the darkness, white lines faintly appear on the turtle shell, which is somewhat similar to the legendary Luo Shu, which makes it a little difficult for him to judge.

Ling Cao is still uncertain, but Hefei Hou is ecstatic in his heart, the turtle dedicated Luo Shu to Dayu, Dayu to set the world to divide Kyushu, this is a rare auspicious. Now that this auspicious rui appears in front of his eyes, does it mean that he is a saint born in heaven? Thinking of this, Hefei Hou was so excited that every wrinkle on his forehead bloomed like a flower, and he didn't care about the defeat at all, just waiting for the turtle in front of him to offer some treasure.

This turtle is extremely ugly, and Zhou Tai himself knows it, but in just a few days of preparation, it is already rare for those craftsmen to make such a thing, and Zhou Tai can only secretly rejoice that this thing looks like there are more elephant turtles than elephant kings after all. Even so, he was reluctant to put on this turtle shell casually, and it was better if everyone forgot about it and didn't mention it again.

However, when Luoshui was lost, Zhou Tai was criticized by Cheng Yu, if the turtle he pretended to be able to show his face in the water, the people and horses of Hefei Hou would never dare to cross the river so boldly, and Zhang He and they would not have retreated so embarrassed. Although Zhou Tai didn't make a sound at that time, he held back the evil fire in his belly, he did not retreat into the city with Qiu Ming, but found this turtle shell from a secret place, and prepared to pretend to be a ghost in Luoshui and do something big.

But Zhou Tai obviously thought things too simply, such a big turtle shell, it was really difficult to start without help. It took him a long time to assemble all the parts until the moon hung high in the sky, and then carried it to the bank of Luoshui, and the enemy army had already rushed to the city and began to prepare to attack the city.

Zhou Tai looked at Luoyang City a few miles away, where the lights were bright and people were shouting horses and neighing, and it was very lively, but he finally put on this turtle shell, and he really didn't want to take it off again. So he simply went into the water with his body, and lurked in the river to see if there was anything cheap to take advantage of, who knew that he really waited for the Hou of Hefei to come over.

Although I haven't seen it with my own eyes, I think most of the people who can be called Hou Ye are Hefei Hou. Zhou Tai's heart was overjoyed, his heart immediately became hot, and his body, which had just been frozen by the river, suddenly regained his vitality, he carefully identified the direction, and rushed towards Hefei Hou with a turtle shell.

Ling Cao He Qi was like a great enemy, but the Marquis of Hefei showed a happy look and shouted: "This is the divine beast Xianrui, don't frighten it." ”

Mythical beasts? Zhou Tai scolded in his heart, you are a divine beast, your whole family is a divine beast, ah, he is the younger brother of the Son of Heaven, isn't it a bully to say this? While thinking wildly, he accelerated forward, setting off waves and rolling waves, swaying Ling Cao and the others from side to side.

Ling Cao was very good at water, and he quickly settled down, but the Hou of Hefei, who was blocked behind him, was nowhere to be seen. Ling Cao was in a hurry, and with a wave of his knife, he slashed at the giant turtle in front of him, and shouted: "Monster, let go of my lord." He Qi and the other guards also understood at this time, and raised their swords and guns at the giant turtle to slash and kill, shouting and cursing in their mouths.

But no matter how they slashed and killed, the giant tortoise half-floating on the surface of the water did not move at all, and it seemed that they did not feel the damage they brought at all. He Qi was furious, and used all his strength to shoot it away, poking a big hole in the turtle shell, revealing the cotton wool and wood inside, Ling Cao was surprised: "We were fooled." ”

While they were busy knocking and beating the turtle shell, Zhou Tai had already taken off the shell of the golden turtle, grabbed Hou Shui of Hefei and fled. Hefei Hou took two sips of water, gradually understood what was going on, and was about to shout for help, but was slapped in the back of the head by Zhou Tai, and suddenly fainted.
