Speaking of which, Mulu's time to deal with Liu Dan was much shorter than that of Meng Shu. The reason why Mulu behaved so deferentially to Liu Dan was actually to show Meng Dan, and he didn't look down on Liu Dan in his heart.

Liu Dan has also been in the officialdom of Chang'an for a few years, and Mulu's little trick naturally can't hide it from him. Still, he was satisfied.

In the past few days when they came to Nanzhong, Yonghong and their relationship with Liu Yan was hindered, and they still had some respect for him on the surface, but those barbarian patriarchs had always spoken with strength, and their attitude towards him was a bit like that. If it weren't for Liu Dan's empty check to allow them to establish themselves as barbarian kings, I'm afraid he would be even more unbearable in the eyes of these patriarchs.

Now, Mulu is not only polite to him, but also asks him for instructions in everything, what else can Liu Dan be dissatisfied with? In fact, it's like when you treat a person, you keep a straight face on him all day long, and suddenly one day you greet him with a smile, and he will naturally be flattered. Liu Dan had already secretly made up his mind that when he defeated Liu Xin, he would definitely try to support Mulu to sit on the throne of the barbarian king.

However, Liu Dan didn't think about it carefully, with their current strength, is it really possible to defeat Liu Xin? He was completely carried away by hatred. Taking a step back, even if they were able to defeat Liu Xin, when the barbarians established themselves as barbarian kings, where would there be room for him to intervene?

Meng Shu is also a scheming person, watching the two of them acting there, secretly sneering, he also made up his mind, when Liu Xin is solved, the first thing to clean up is this wooden deer.

Although several of them have their own ghosts, in the face of Liu Xin, a strong enemy, they can only temporarily put aside the contradictions and move forward with their own troops. Mulu took the lead this time, personally commanding those barbarians to carry hundreds of sacks to the front of the battle.

I saw that the spear in Mulu's hand was raised, and those brute soldiers stopped advancing, and one by one they clung to the thin rope tied to the mouth of the bag, looking nervous, as if they were facing a great enemy. Mu Lu suddenly took out a bamboo flute from his arms and blew it melodiously in front of the two armies, leaving everyone stunned, not knowing what he wanted to do.

Liu Xin kept watching the movement on the opposite side, and when he saw them carrying out many sacks, he turned around and asked, "Hou Qinu, do you know what they are going to do?" ”

Hou Qinu was also watching his clansmen busy with a blank face. Although he has a lot of strength, but because he was raised by an ape, his status in the clan is very low, and Mulu has never regarded him as a human being, but just uses his ability to domesticate beasts, so when he heard Liu Xin's question, he had to shake his head helplessly, and said: "Please forgive the master, the abandoned slaves don't know what they are doing." ”

Liu Xin smiled at him and said, "Hou Qinu, don't be too restrained. It's normal not to know something, what's the sin? The soldiers are coming, the water is coming to cover the earth, I want to see how many of their little loaches can set off a big Lang? ”

Hou Qinu nodded as if he didn't understand, and looked at the other side with a nervous expression, because as the wooden deer blew the bamboo flute, the sacks also began to squirm violently.

Suddenly, the sound of the wooden deer's flute became urgent, and the barbarians also opened the mouth of the bag at the same time, and countless colorful poisonous snakes burst out of the sack. Those poisonous snakes with triangular heads held high, spitting fiery red letters, stuck to the ground and quickly swam towards the Han army. One snake, two snakes or nothing, but there are thousands of poisonous snakes, entwined and wriggling with each other, and it is terrifying to watch. Even Zhu Rong, who grew up in the mountains and forests, couldn't help but exclaim when he saw so many snakes, stretched out his slender hand, and grabbed Liu Xin's arm.

Liu Xin smiled, lightly stretched his ape arms, hugged Zhu Rong over the horse, and let her sit behind her, Zhu Rong wrapped her arms around Liu Xin's waist, leaned on his back shoulders, and made a little girl. In the face of danger, the two of them still made this intimate move, which fell in the eyes of Meng Shu opposite, and he was so angry that he gritted his teeth.

Zhao Yun frowned and said, "Lord, these snakes look very poisonous, let's let the three armies retreat and dodge first." ”

"Zilong, if you look closely, these snakes move quickly, much faster than the two legs of the soldiers, and they can't dodge." Liu Xin said unhurriedly, "Don't worry, I've been prepared, let's try it now, whether that thing is as effective as the legend." Come on, light the fire! ”

With Liu Xin's order, the soldiers immediately lit nearly a thousand torches and stretched out to the front of the formation, and soon, a strange aroma wafted out from the front of the Han army.

It turned out that Liu Xin had long heard that snakes and insects were infested and miasma was rampant in the Nanzhong area, so this time he went to Nanzhong, and he specially transferred a whole box of flying incense. Before he came, he had also conducted a special experiment in Qike, and poisonous snakes, centipedes, and the like would flee when they did smell the smell of flying incense. In order to make it easier to use, Liu Xin grinds these flying incense into powder, sprinkles it on the torch, and after igniting it, the aroma is even stronger.

It was also heaven that helped Liu Xin, at this time the Han army was in the upwind direction, and the breeze was light, and the fragrance slowly drifted to the opposite side. The venomous snakes swam halfway through, and suddenly stopped, raising their heads and spitting out letters.

Mulu really saw it from behind, and didn't understand why these snakes stopped. These snakes were not improvised from the wild, but were specially cultivated by him with great painstaking efforts. After special training, these snakes are not afraid of fire, and at the urging of their own flutes, they will pass through even if there is a blazing bonfire in front of them, not to mention that the other party has only lit a few torches.

Seeing that some poisonous snakes had turned around and swam back, the sound of Mulu's flute couldn't help but raise another scale. Mulu understood, there was obviously something in the Han army that made these snakes very afraid, but Mulu had no other way to think than to make the flute sound more and more urgent. These snakes are extremely venomous, and a bite can kill you with a cup of tea. Although there is an antidote, the injured still have to endure great pain.

With the blocking of flying incense on one side and the rapid sound of flutes on the other, those poisonous snakes seemed to have a hard time making a choice, and became agitated, twisting their bodies frantically in front of the two armies, entangled together.

Mulu was out of breath, but the snake formation still didn't take a step forward, and finally, the sound of the flute stopped. When the manpower is exhausted, after blowing for so long, Mulu also has to take a breath. As soon as he gasped, those poisonous snakes were like being pardoned, and they instantly turned around and rushed towards the side of the South Central Alliance. The brute soldiers who followed closely behind the snake formation were caught off guard, and in the blink of an eye, they fell into a group of snakes, and the screams came and went.

There are also fierce brute soldiers with steel knives and sharp axes, slashing at these poisonous snakes, but these poisonous snakes are vicious, many snakes' heads have been cut off, and their bodies are still desperately wrapped around the calves of the bruteers, if anyone accidentally passes by the snake's head, those snake heads without body will often suddenly rise up, bite the brute's body in one bite, and never let go of seeing such a scene, Meng Shu laughed loudly, as if the depression in his heart was swept away, and he shouted proudly: "Mulu, which side are you on, Could you be a spy sent by Liu Xin? ”

Mu Lu was also stunned by this sudden change, and he couldn't even take a breath, where did he have time to fight a lawsuit with Meng Huo, and hurriedly raised the bamboo flute to control the snake formation. Unexpectedly, when the barbarians in front saw the poisonous snake coming, they pulled their legs and ran back, and they rushed the guards around Mulu to pieces. Mulu was just about to drink, but he was hit by the brute soldiers, and the bamboo flute in his hand couldn't hold it, and it fell to the ground with a "snap". Dozens of brute soldiers ran past, and dozens of pairs of big feet stepped on the small bamboo flute one after another, and the bamboo flute had already been trampled to sparse pieces, and it was obvious that it could no longer be used.

Liu Dan saw that the situation was not right, and hurriedly said: "Quick, quick, Mingjin withdraws his troops!" Mingjin retreats! ”

Without the bamboo flute, Mulu could no longer control these poisonous snakes, he knew that the situation was irreparable, and stamped his feet hatefully, turned his head and ran back in the group. Before he could run a few steps, Mulu felt a numbness in his ankle, and when he looked down, a spotted snake "sizzled" past him.

Mulu knows the poison of snakes very well, and knows that after being bitten by snakes, he can't continue to run, otherwise the blood will flow faster and the poison will attack faster, so he has to sit on the ground with his butt and squeeze the black blood from the wound with all his might. Fortunately, his guards had snake medicine, and they carried him up, helping him apply medicine while escaping, and finally hid in the camp of the South Central Alliance, and Mulu was already unconscious.

Dian Wei waved the big iron halberd and said excitedly: "Big brother, look, that one is Meng Shu, let's rush over and kill him alive!" ”

Liu Xin looked at the front of the two armies, the corpses of barbarians, beasts, and poisonous snakes were everywhere, and the tragic scene was really unbearable. Moreover, there may be many poisonous snakes in it that have not died, if the soldiers are accidentally bitten, it will be even more than worth the loss, so he waved his hand and said: "In today's battle, Liu Dan and Meng Shu suffered a big loss, and this mess is enough for them to clean up for a while." Let's take our troops back to the camp. ”

Zhu Rong has been lying behind him, and what he is most worried about is that Liu Xin's brain is hot, and she will cover up the killing, so these people of hers don't know how many deaths and injuries they will have. Hearing Liu Xin's order to withdraw the troops, he couldn't help but give a light peck on Liu Xin's cheek, regardless of how many people were watching.

Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and the others all hurriedly turned around, some raised their heads to look at the sky, some lowered their bodies and stroked their war horses, and some of the more daring soldiers secretly stared at this fragrant scene with the corner of their eyes. For Zhu Rong's actions that did not hide his emotions, Liu Xin laughed, pulled the reins lightly, clamped his legs hard, and drove Zhu Rong back to the camp.

Meng Shu was staring at Liu Xin on the other side, and the scene of the two of them flirting in public naturally couldn't hide from his eyes. Meng Shu was so angry that he whipped his horsewhip, slapped the brute soldiers around him fiercely, and said angrily: "Go back to the camp, go back to the camp, a group of rice buckets!" ”

His angry scolding was obviously a suspicion of scolding Huai, and the faces of the busy tooth chief, Dong Dana and others were a little unbearable, or Ah Xuan was worried that his family would be in chaos first, and said in a loud voice: "Yes, yes, Patriarch Meng is also reasonable, Patriarch Mulu is seriously injured, it is important to go back to the camp first." ”
