Chapter 265: Divine Soldier

Shangguan Hong confessed all the secrets, and was imprisoned for several days before he was released and fled in a hurry, and since then his fear of Huan Nu has been deeply rooted.

Gu Shenwei left with the secret of the windfall, and he hadn't figured out how to use it for the time being, and the most important and urgent thing now was to take more than a thousand swordsmen away from the Great Snow Mountain as soon as possible.

The news of the peace between Daxueshan and Shule has not yet reached the front line, but the Shule army has received an order to temporarily hold its troops, and the side of Daxueshan also strictly implements the orders left by the Dragon King before leaving, and the two sides are nervously maintaining a state of peace.

When Gu Shenwei bypassed the blockade and returned from the trail to the snowy mountain pass, the situation was like this, the external troubles were temporarily lifted, and the problems all came from the inside.

There are many things waiting for the Dragon King to deal with, and a few of them are quite tricky.

First of all, a few small groups of bandits in the vicinity came to join the gang, they had no clear purpose, some people had an enmity with Jinpeng Fort or Shule Kingdom, some people wanted to take advantage of the fire to rob with their backs to the big trees, and some people just wanted to find a temporary hiding place, which made the rustic Daxue Mountain swordsmen very unaccustomed to it, and many advocated expelling them.

The second is that there is a serious split within the Great Snow Mountain, and this split has nothing to do with the original hatred between the five peaks, and all the swordsmen are arguing about one issue: whether to leave the Great Snow Mountain or not.

The old patriarch of Luoshen Peak, Long Capture Eagle, is one of the loyal supporters of the Dragon King, but it is he who doesn't want to leave alive or dead, "I'm old." He felt deeply sorry for the dragon king who came back from the starry night, "I can still hold a sword in my hand, but I can't walk on my leg anymore, Daxue Mountain is my home, and I must die here." ”

There are many people who have the same idea as Long Zhuying, most of them are old swordsmen, the five peaks of the Great Snow Mountain have only gathered more than 1,200 people in total, this kind of people account for one-third, and most of the remaining young swordsmen have never left their hometowns, and under the influence of their parents, they are also panicked, "This time, I'm afraid I will never come back." "This is the truest mindset of many people.

At the most critical moment, homesickness actually defeated the desire for revenge, which Gu Shenwei could never have imagined, he lived for hatred, and he would die for hatred in the future, and he couldn't understand the thoughts of this group of swordsmen at all.

Gu Shenwei didn't say anything on the first day, he summoned the patriarchs of the other four peaks, everyone had already discussed, if they wanted to attack Jinpeng Castle, there must be no less than a thousand people, and some people even proposed to simply forcibly kidnap the patriarch of Luoshen Peak.

Finally, there is one more thing, which is not big or small, but the influence among the mountain people is more extensive.

Gu Shenwei snatched a blacksmith named Dajia from the Shule ** camp a few months ago, the purpose was to build a few weapons to take advantage of, Dajia asked for a hundred catties of Wushan fine iron, and Xu Xiaoyi sent a thousand catties.

Dajia was originally a well-known blacksmith in Shule City, but he was sent to the frontier because he accidentally killed someone, and he still ran his old business in the military camp, and his skills were refined, and his fame became even greater.

Daga is obsessed with iron and fire, no less than Chu Nanping's pursuit of swordsmanship, he doesn't care who makes weapons for, as long as there are furnaces, anvils and all kinds of raw materials around him, he will work non-stop.

In addition to 1,000 catties of Wushan refined iron, Daga also made a long list of things he needed, specifying in detail what he needed: charcoal produced in a certain place in a certain month, clear water in a certain section of a certain river, ore dug out of a certain cave in a certain mountain, only the fat of the quenching machine, and he chose a bison native to the Daxue Mountain, which must be male.

Xu Xiaoyi was dumbfounded when he saw the list, but he proved his ability with practical actions, and it took more than a month to collect all the unheard materials one after another, and transported them into the Daxue Mountain little by little from the path.

The blacksmith Daga was satisfied, these were the things he dreamed of, and they were placed in front of him without a lack of them, he was like a nerd, chanting every day "There is Yan Ruyu in the book", and suddenly one day a beautiful woman appeared in front of him, and the joy in his heart was indescribable.

He built a house in a hidden valley, led two apprentices and a few helpers, and worked day and night to build weapons, and soon the apprentices and helpers were endured by this endless hard work, and had to take turns to help.

Daga never sleeps, eager to see the best work of his life.

The first sword was scrap, and even chopped wood that was constantly burning on fire.

Daga silently threw it into the furnace and immediately set out on a larger project: forging nine swords at once.

"Nine. He kept muttering about the number, "My favorite number, the mysterious number, is him, you'll see." ”

No one knows who he's talking to.

The two apprentices gradually became afraid, and the mountain people who had been assigned to help whispered eagerly, and their attitudes changed from incomprehension to panic, and then to awe.

"The blacksmith is hooked. This sentence soon spread throughout the Great Snow Mountain, faster than the finest galloping horse.

Because of a trivial matter, even the two apprentices believed that the master seemed to be breaking away from the boundaries of mortals.

Daga is an orderly blacksmith, the placement of tools is very strict, hammers, pliers and other things must be reached out, one day, the apprentice was negligent, put the hammer in the wrong position, Daga did not touch it, turned around, groped around, and it took a long time to find it.

So the two apprentices knew that the master's eyes were already blind.

This happened during Gu Shenwei's trip to Shule Kingdom, he had only heard that the blacksmith was becoming more and more weird, and as soon as he returned to the Great Snow Mountain, someone told him about even stranger things later.

One night, the valley where Daga was working suddenly burst into a red light, like a giant tongue stretching out from the ground to the sky, and the next day, many people claimed to have seen all kinds of visions, different contents, plants, trees, birds, beasts, gods, ghosts, fairies and demons.

For the first time in months, Daga stepped out of the house and announced that the swords were ready, "The first person who sees them can only be the dragon king." From then on, he sat in front of the door, did not eat, occasionally drank some water, and a mysterious smile appeared on his face.

More and more mountain people were moved by the vision and joined the ranks of guarding the gate, because it was rumored that someone was going to steal these nine divine weapons, and these swords had become a part of the Great Snow Mountain, a sacred part.

This happened three days ago, Gu Shenwei had a lot of things to deal with, but this one had to be in the first place, there were already thousands of men, women, and children guarding the valley, waiting for the dragon king to test the sword.

This is a ritual, hasty, the five patriarchs have invited three warlocks from the deepest part of the snow-capped mountain, they sacrificed to the god of the sky after the dragon king returned, nine horses, nine cows, nine sheep, part of the blood sprinkled on the snow that has not melted for many years, part of it was smeared on the body of the dragon king**, the flesh and bones were burned, and the internal organs were buried deep in the ground after careful observation.

The warlock announced that at sunrise the next day, they would collectively utter a prophecy that was vital to the Great Snow Mountain, after which the dragon king would receive the nine swords given by the gods.

Gu Shenwei couldn't eat all day, couldn't wash the blood on his body, couldn't even sleep at night, sat in his tent, waited for the sunrise, and didn't have any iron tools around him, while the mountain people were outside around the campfire and drinking and carnivaling.

Gu Shenwei didn't let himself think about whether this matter was credible or not, he was able to become the Dragon King of the Great Snow Mountain, largely relying on the fear and faith brought by the red-topped Dapeng, and he had to follow the local customs.

Jinpeng Fort had no faith, so they were probably gathering troops at this time to prepare for a decisive battle with the Great Snow Mountain, and at this point, Gu Shenwei no longer thought about it.

In the middle of the night, five Assassins entered the tent in an attempt to assassinate the unarmed Dragon King, but were ambushed, killing four and capturing one alive.

Gu Shenwei's suspicion was still useful, the twelve swordsmen hid in the tent, they could not hold iron weapons either, and they held either wooden sticks or cow bones in their hands, and the assassins tried to flee as soon as they found an ambush, but they died faster.

The five assassins came from the bandit gang that had taken refuge, and the swordsmen who learned the news were furious, and before Gu Shenwei gave the order, they killed nearly half of the more than 300 foreign bandits, and the living people were all tied up and waited for the dragon king to fall.

Then, the five patriarchs took turns to meet the dragon king and explain to him the process of the ceremony and the precautions.

In the early hours of the morning, tens of thousands of people had gathered inside and outside the Blacksmith Valley, and there were still distant mountain people arriving one after another, and everyone felt that this would be the most important day in the Great Snow Mountain for many years.

The heavy blood of horses, cattle and sheep clumped on the skin, and it looked like scorched earth, and Gu Shenwei was very uncomfortable, but he still had to hold his head high, walk out of the tent with solemn steps, and go naked to a mountain peak near the Blacksmith Valley, followed by thousands of mountain people.

The peak is still covered in a thick layer of snow, and the three warlocks have been staying here since last night.

The first rays of sunlight reached the peak, and the warlock said in unison the prophecy, "The god-given sword cuts off the sword of mortals, and the people of the Great Snow Mountain can leave their homeland, and the sky is above, this statement cannot be violated." ”

Each of the five peaks tribe selected a virgin and wiped the blood stains on the dragon king's body with snow, and then the five patriarchs put a black robe on the dragon king's body together.

Then, led by the blind blacksmith Daga and his apprentices, eight sturdy swordsmen carried a large bucket through the layers of crowds and up the mountain, containing the fat and urine of the bison, and nine quenched swords buried in it.

Gu Shenwei put his hand into the barrel, took out the first sword from it, and said loudly: "The Falling God Sword, thick and heavy. ”

The Patriarch of Luoshen Peak held his sword in both hands and held it horizontally at his side.

Gu Shenwei slashed hard, the sword in the patriarch's hand broke in response, and the crowd looking up on the hillside cheered in unison.

"There are many swords, big and strong. ”

"The Great Snow Sword, wide and wide. ”

"Little Snow Sword, refined and refined. ”

"The canopy sword, sharp and sharp. ”

Every time Gu Shenwei cut off the sword in the hand of a patriarch, there was a burst of cheers on the hillside, which became louder and louder, and even the elderly, women and children felt the call of the gods, and were ambitious, and decided to follow the dragon king to attack Jinpeng Castle.

"Wufeng Knife. Gu Shenwei raised the sixth weapon, the style was exactly the same as the Jinpeng Fort narrow knife, "Drink the blood of the enemy." ”

The swordsmen escorted the only assassin caught in the crowd and pushed him in front of the dragon king.

Confused by the frenzied crowd, the Assassin knelt down obediently, stabbing his heart with a narrow knife that he didn't even feel the slightest pain.

The narrow knife pierced deep until it had no handle, and the entire blade was soaked in blood.

Gu Shenwei pulled out the Wufeng knife, stuck it in the snow, reached into the barrel with both hands at the same time, and took out two identical knives, "The left and right Dharma Protector Knives will be left by the virtuous." ”

The last one was a sword, no more than three feet long and no more than three inches wide, Gu Shenwei held it high, his heart had always been closed, but at this moment, he was suddenly infected by the crowd, as if some kind of power was transmitted from the tip of the sword into his body, making his voice amplified ten times for no reason.

"Dragon King Sword, slay the Supreme. "Cutting a wound on his forearm, the Dragon King Sword first tasted the blood of his master.

The five patriarchs took the lead, and more than 10,000 mountain people of the Great Snow Mountain knelt down in rows, which was their ritual to the gods.

Gu Shenwei breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, he didn't waste too much time.
