403 cleans the battlefield
"Light work." Mo Zhi smiled, and then saw that there was not much joy of victory on the faces of these guards, too, in the battle just now, there should have been more than a dozen guards who died. So his mood couldn't help but become a little heavy, this is the battlefield that Yunmen has faced in the past two hundred years, and it is also the battlefield that she has held for the past two hundred years.
He watched the guards wash away the monsters' black blood and saliva with special potions, and then said to Cheng Qixue: "The combat power of these monsters is even more powerful than I imagined, their combat thinking is not only not weaker than ours, but their learning ability is also very strong, which is really tricky." ”
"yes, I said, these guys are always improving." Cheng Qixue sighed, then turned her head to look at the signal tower next to her, and said, "Fortunately, that girl has already predicted their situation, and the latest defensive array is being arranged with these signal towers as a hub, and it will be over in a few days." Even if these guys learn to fly, they won't be able to crash into it again. ”
Mo Zhiyu knew who Cheng Qixue was talking about, so he smiled with some relief: "Yes, she always has to be one step ahead of others, and it is also very hard." ”
Cheng Qixue glanced at Mo Zhiyu, "cut" and said: "Slapping sycophants in front of others, saying it behind your back will not increase your favor at all." ”
Mo Zhi looked at Cheng Qixue with a smile and said, "Yes, my senior brother has done a very bad job in this regard, and he always cares about people secretly. ”
Cheng Qixue pointed at Mo Zhiyu, and as soon as she mentioned "no face", she couldn't say any more, turned around angrily, and said, "Let's go, take you to clean up the battlefield." ”
"Cleaning the battlefield?" Mo Zhiyu was puzzled, isn't this a battlefield?
Indeed, compared to the tragic situation at the foot of the city wall, the top of the city wall is really not a battlefield. Cheng Qixue took Mo Zhiyu to the seaside shoal outside the Great Wall.
The guards of the Cloud Gate descended from the outer layer of the city wall on a special platform to the shallows, where the corpses were piled up like a mountain, and the smell of blood almost made people faint. So the guards who came here were all dressed in special clothes, and they were heavily armed from foot to head.
Cheng Qixue also came outside with Mo Zhiyu to change into such clothes. As soon as he jumped off the platform, he sank into the pile of corpses, which were sticky and disgusting.
Mo Zhiyu saw that the guards had picked up some severed limbs and legs from these corpses, and said, "I'm afraid the corpses of the soldiers are not easy to find." ”
"That's true, but we can't let these martyrs just throw their bodies into the wilderness, how many can be picked up, and burned into ashes together when the time comes, so that they can make a grave together, so that their families can have a memory." Cheng Qixue said calmly, it seemed that she had experienced many such incidents, and then she pointed to the guards in another place and said, "The real purpose is that, we need the armor of these monsters." ”
"Armor?" Mo Zhiyu looked at the large armor pieces dug up from the corpse pile and said, "The scale armor of these monsters is indeed very hard, but it is too hard, and it is not very suitable for making battle armor, right?" ”
"It was very unsuitable before, but isn't there a Xuanwu Pavilion?" Cheng Qixue said, "Your scribbled handwriting is really effective, and it is easy for Xuanwu Pavilion to do a big business with us." With the Xuanwu Pavilion's sword-forging technique, these scale armors are the best smelting materials.
It won't be long before the latest batch of armor arrives, and although it's not as good as the one on you, it should still be somewhat useful to deal with these guys' claws. ”
"My handbook?" Mo Zhiyu thought about it carefully, Yun Shi had mentioned the matter of Xuanwu Pavilion to him, but he didn't talk about it at all, where was there any handwriting?
Then, he heard Cheng Qixue continue: "But why don't you like to sign and press your handprints?" ”
"Mudras?" As soon as Mo Zhiyu heard these three words, he suddenly remembered that day, on the eve of Qixi Festival, he was tracked by Wuyan and hid in the Lonely Xiu Pavilion, and then just when he almost succeeded, he seemed to touch the inkstone on Yun Shi's low table with his hand, could it be the handprint at that time.
Mo Zhiyu couldn't help but cover his forehead, feeling a pity in his heart, no wonder Yun Shi didn't continue to talk, the original goal had been achieved. And what's going on with those two breezes and bright moons? Is it a pig? I was fooled by a handprint.
The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and if he didn't pay attention, the pile of corpses under his feet collapsed, but fortunately he reacted quickly, otherwise he would have fallen into the sea.
Immediately, a guard next to him said timidly, "Elder! I'm so sorry, but the potion has spread! ”
"It's okay, you go on, we'll go back." Cheng Qixue pulled Mo Zhiyu, then turned around and walked back to the hanging platform.
Mo Zhiyu saw that the guards were pouring potion on the piles of corpses in addition to picking up corpses, and the smell of the potion was the same as that used by the guards to clean the blood on the top of the city wall, so he asked, "What is this?" ”
"Special washing water, we have given this water a very loud name, called 'Pure Water'!" Cheng Qixue said proudly, "However, although this pure water has a good cleaning and corrosive effect on the blood and corpses of these monsters, and it is also useful to splash on the monsters, the lethality is too small to be used as a weapon, and can only be used to clean up the battlefield." ”
Mo Zhiyu looked back at the shallow beach full of corpses, and then asked, "Will something happen here?" You have to clean it all. ”
"That's right, although these guys are dead, the toxicity on their bodies has not decreased at all, but will continue to ferment here, corroding our wall foundation, and we almost suffered a loss before." Cheng Qixue jumped onto the hanging platform, "Moreover, those guys have to come to such a scene almost every day, if they don't clean up in time, it won't be long before these corpses will become their best ladders, so of course they have to clean it up." ”
Mo Zhiyu nodded, indicating that he understood, and finally glanced at the black ocean, in a trance, he actually felt that something was attracting him, but when he looked closely, it was still just a black ocean.
After that, he returned to the Great Wall with Cheng Qixue, and this trip to the Great Wall was over, Cheng Qixue left the Great Wall with the original road of Mo Zhiyu, still riding a horse, and went back to Cloud City.
Mo Zhiyu thought about everything he had just experienced, and asked Cheng Qixue: "You let me see this, it will be helpful for things in the future." ”
"Of course." Cheng Qixue said, "If you want to open a road from here to the end of the world, isn't it just to dig a road in the pile of corpses?" ”
