Chapter 1905 Hulukou
Guo Si fell, his soul and true spirit were scattered, leaving only a lifeless body lying on the ground.
The Xuanming Pagoda was full of generals from the Bamboo Army. Although many people mocked Guo Si just now, there were also some who narrowed their eyes slightly and secretly felt vigilance in their hearts.
The magical power of the Fantasy Clan cannot be underestimated!
Mo only had the ability to overcome difficulties, and relying on "Jialanxiang" actually made Guo Si, who had already overcome two disasters and seven disasters, fall deeply into the illusion, willingly opened the formation mechanism, and finally ended up with the city destroyed and people killed. .
Have to be vigilant!
Although Mo is on their side now, the position of the Huan clan is still undecided. It is hard to say whether they will be friends or enemies in the future. You must be careful to avoid falling into other people's ways!
This is what most people have in mind.
Liang Yan's face was calm, his hands were clasped behind his back, and he looked calm.
After a while, a "thump thump thump" sound came from the stairs of Xuan Ming Tower. In just a moment, a young general climbed to the top floor of Xuan Ming Tower.
It was none other than the Flying Dragon God General Zhao Yi.
He bowed to Liang Yan and then reported: "Commander Qi, all the defenders in Yunya City were killed. As for the poisonous cave where the poisonous man was made, I and Venerable Fuhu destroyed it. "
"Very good." Liang Yan nodded and said, "Only the two of you have been to the poison cave. I hope you can keep it secret. This method of making poisonous people will never be spread."
"Don't worry, Commander, the scene in the poisonous cave will only make Venerable Fuhu and me rot in our stomachs." Zhao Yi said in a deep voice.
"good."
Liang Yan waved his sleeves and said calmly: "Yunya City has been breached. Send an order to let our army rest for half a day and set off before dawn!"
"I obey the commander's orders!" All the soldiers responded with their hands raised.
In the Black Mountain Territory, countless mountains are rolling up and down, and miasma, poisonous clouds and ferocious beasts are hidden in them. Even the spiritual consciousness cannot spread too far. It can be said that it is surrounded by dangers.
Under the leadership of Dan Yangsheng, Beiming monks conquered many dangerous passes. One of them was surrounded by a dangerous black forest, with only an open space in the middle. If you look at it from above, it looks like a huge gourd mouth. , hence the name Huluguan.
There is a city where Huluguan must pass, and the guard general in the city is named "Zhou Tong".
This person has the cultivation ability to overcome three difficulties. He was originally a casual cultivator in Xiling Mountain. He got the Tao by chance and was trapped in a secret realm for more than 800 years before he was able to escape. As soon as he came out, he had the cultivation ability to resolve the calamity realm. It made many people sit up and take notice.
Maybe he stayed in the secret realm for too long, as if he had found a natural shelter. As a result, his character was not as tough as other casual cultivators. He liked to have fun, and there was always singing and dancing in the city.
On this day, Zhou Tong held another banquet in the cave, allowing more than a hundred beautiful female cultivators to dance in the courtyard, looking very intoxicated.
After drinking for three rounds, everyone was reciting poems and discussing Taoism, and they were in high spirits. Suddenly they heard someone coming to report from outside.
"To inform the city lord, an old man came from outside the city and said he wanted to see you."
"Old man? What old man? See you, see you!"
Zhou Tong had three beautiful female cultivators by his side. They drank with him and made fun of him. They didn't have time to worry about anything else.
The person who reported the message hesitated for a moment, but did not give up, but continued: "City Lord, this person seems to be a bit special, his aura is unfathomable, why don't you go and see him, in case he is the messenger from other cities, It’s better for us to lose our etiquette.”
After hearing this, Zhou Tong sobered up a little, pushed away the beautiful girls around him, and sat up straight.
"Could it be that the mayors from other cities are looking for bad luck on me? Then we can't meet each other anymore. If you go outside the city, tell him that Zhou is in seclusion, and no one will be seen!"
"This" the person who reported the message hesitated for a moment, and seemed to want to persuade.
But Zhou Tong glared and shouted: "You are a small general, but you still take care of me? Our Huluguan is sandwiched between two major cities. Which foreign race dares to attack? Okay, I won’t argue with you, just go and send the visitor away quickly, and don’t disturb the city lord’s enjoyment.”
"well."
The man sighed, knowing that any further words would be useless, so he could only accept the order and leave.
But just as he turned around, he heard an old man's laughter coming from outside the city. The sound passed through the many restrictions at the top of the city and clearly reached everyone's ears.
Zhou Tong couldn't help but change his face when he heard this laughter, and said in surprise: "There are only a few people with this skill in the entire Black Mountain Region! Who is here?"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard the old man's voice laughing: "Zhou Tong, you don't know that you are facing a big disaster, but you are still singing and dancing in peace, and your death is not far away!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the city lord's mansion put down their wine glasses, stopped singing, and stopped dancing.
Everyone looked at me and I looked at you, all with expressions of surprise and uncertainty.
What was shocking was the level of cultivation of the man outside the city. It was truly terrifying! What is puzzling is what he just said. Huluguan is firmly located between the two major cities, backed by natural dangers, easy to defend and difficult to attack. How could it be in danger?
Zhou Tong sobered up a lot, pondered for a moment, then flashed out of the city lord's mansion and galloped towards the city gate.
After a while, Zhou Tong landed at the top of the city.
I saw a patch of yellow sand outside Huluguan. Looking around, the wind was howling, and the sand and rocks were flying!
In the distance, an old man came slowly.
This man was short in stature, no more than three feet long. He was holding a cane and had a beard hanging down to the ground. He looked very strange.
The most ridiculous thing is that he is riding a pig demon with tusks turned out and golden hair all over his body. He is walking very hard in the strong wind.
"Hmph! Hmph!"
The pig demon shook a few times and seemed to be in agony. His steps became slower and slower, and finally stopped about thirty miles away from the city gate.
"Who are you?" Zhou Tong asked loudly at the city gate.
"The person who came to save your life." The old man said with a smile.
"nonsense!"
A trace of anger flashed in Zhou Tong's eyes, and he shouted: "I am Zhou Tong, the guard general of Hulu Pass, with a hundred thousand elite soldiers. Who dares to bring bad luck to me?"
The old man laughed loudly: "You don't know that a catastrophe is coming, but you already have a way to die! It's better to let me collect your soul than to be killed by others. At least you can make the best use of it and don't waste it. ."
Zhou Tong was furious: "Where did this group of people come from? How dare they speak such arrogant words! Send my order to the general to open the city wall and release the 'Five Elements Divine Light' to kill this person!"
"yes!"
After hearing this, the monks guarding the city immediately passed on the order.
Above the city wall, more than 3,000 monks in charge of the formation have been waiting for orders. After hearing the order, they simultaneously run the magic formula and inject spiritual power into the restriction of the city wall.
brush!
Five colors of golden, green, blue, red and yellow rays of light burst out, converging into the "Five Elements of Divine Light" in mid-air, and hooded the old man.
"Little pig, little pig, it seems they want you to die."
The pig demon suddenly heard the sigh of the old man on his back, and couldn't help but be shocked.
It shook its head desperately and made a "hum hum hum" sound, its little eyes full of fear.
However, the old man ignored it and slapped his hand on the pig demon's back. The fat pig's body quickly swelled up, like a huge bubble, flying upwards.
boom!
Amidst the loud noise, the five elements of divine light fell, hitting the head of the swollen pig demon.
I saw the pig demon exploded and turned into billowing yellow dust, swallowing up all the five elements of divine light. Then it rolled a few more times, and then there was no more movement.
"How can it be!"
Above the city gate, Zhou Tong saw this scene from a distance and couldn't help but change his expression.
This "Five Elements Divine Light" is the most powerful restriction in Huluguan. It can stop thousands of troops, but it cannot stop such an old man!
"who are you?"
Zhou Tong shouted sharply and looked around, but was surprised to find that there was no sign of the old man under the city wall!
The person who was laughing and scolding him just now disappeared under his nose in the blink of an eye. It was extremely weird!
Zhou Tong's eyelids jumped, and he hurriedly released his consciousness and carefully searched every corner outside the city, trying to find the old man's hiding place.
But just as he was trying his best to find this person, a lazy voice came from behind him: "General Zhou, are you looking for me?"
Zhou Tong was shocked. He turned around quickly and found that the old man was standing behind him, and the distance was no more than three feet away. He didn't feel anything just now!
What's even more shocking is that this person actually ignored the city wall restrictions and went directly from outside the city to the city head.
Although Huluguan is not an important city and the city protection restrictions are not very powerful, it is not something that an outsider can come in just by asking.
"Who are you?" Zhou Tong felt that he was a little incoherent and even stammered when he spoke.
"hehe."
The old man grabbed his collar and sneered: "Zhou Tong, do you know your guilt?"
"Know the guilt, know the guilt!"
Zhou Tong only felt that he was being imprisoned with great magic power. How could he dare to disobey? He nodded hastily and confessed!
But after a moment, he came to his senses and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I wonder what crime Zhou committed? Please clarify, fellow Taoist."
"Hmph! You are the guard of Huluguan, but you are greedy for pleasure and neglect your duties. Until now, you still don't know that a Nanxuan army came from the north of Heishan Territory. In just half a month, you defeated Tayun, The three passes of Ling Snake and Yunya are now very powerful, and they are coming to your Hulu Pass!"
"There is such a thing!"
Zhou Tong was shocked, his knees softened, and he almost fell to the ground.
It was no wonder that he was so cowardly. It was just because the old man's cultivation level was too high and he was so menacing that he subconsciously thought that the old man was a supervisor sent by Danyang Sheng. He was frightened in his heart, so he lost his grace.
However, after all, Zhou Tong was also a great monk in the Tribulation Realm. He had experienced the baptism of natural and man-made disasters, and his temperament was extraordinary. He quickly calmed down and asked tentatively: "Fellow Taoist, although you are here under orders, you are not here." You have to show your token before you can enter the city. It seems...seems to be against the rules to break in like this."
"Token?"
The old man laughed and said with a smile: "I have lost that kind of thing on the road a long time ago."
"What? You lost the token!" Zhou Tong's face changed slightly, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.
Danyang Sheng was extremely strict in running the army, and if he made any mistakes while working under him, he would be severely punished. Losing the identity token was a serious crime, and no one dared to be careless. However, the old man in front of him had an indifferent expression, which had to make Zhou Tong doubt his true identity.
"That's a long way to go, it's just a small token. If you lose it, it's lost. The worst I can do is compensate you." The old man said with a smile.
"pay?"
Zhou Tong thought he heard wrongly, and was about to ask him how to compensate him, but he saw the old man smilingly stretched out his right hand, dug into his ear, and unexpectedly dug out a black pill.
"Here, I'll compensate you for this. You're in luck!"
After saying that, he handed the black meatball to Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong looked horrified and shook his head desperately, but the other party blocked his magic power. He grabbed his chin with his hand, forced it open, and stuffed the black pill into his mouth.
Gulu!
Zhou Tong couldn't help but swallowed the black pill into his belly. He felt the power of the medicine dissipate, and the disgusting smell rushed straight to his forehead, making him want to gag.
"Well, what did you give me to eat?"
"This is my panacea! Don't you feel that your energy and blood are full and your skills are greatly improved?"
"Huh?"
Zhou Tong felt it carefully. Although he felt nauseated at first, the medicinal power soon spread into his limbs and bones, making his energy and blood stronger and his magic power purer.
This time, Zhou Tong was even more confused.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"What are you doing? Of course I'm here to help you defend the city! Without me, your Huluguan Pass will be like a chicken or a dog. It will be broken by Nan Xuan in one blow. By then, all of you will be turned into ashes!"
"You and I are not relatives, why should you help me? Also, who are you?"
"You asked too many questions!" The old man suddenly stopped smiling, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes, "Do what you should do, sometimes it's not good to know too much."
After Zhou Tong heard this, a chill suddenly arose in his heart.
The strength of the man in front of him was unfathomable, but his smiling appearance gave him the illusion that he would not kill anyone.
But just now, the murderous intention displayed by this person was terrifying!
"Okay, okay" Zhou Tong nodded obediently.
He didn't want to die in the line of duty. The dispute between the North and the South had nothing to do with him.
The reason why he joined Beiming was because he could plunder the resources of other sects and cities. Moreover, Beiming had great power before, and there were many people like Zhou Tong who wanted to fish in troubled waters.
Seeing Zhou Tong nodding hurriedly without any intention of resisting, the old man also laughed.
"Very good, you are a talented person. My surname is Hu. From now on, you can call me Mr. Hu."
"Understood!" Zhou Tong looked respectful, thought for a while and then said: "Nanxuan's army is attacking, I wonder what Hu Gong has to do?"
"No need to panic."
Hu Gong knocked the crutch in his hand on the city wall and said with a smile: "Although there are many masters in Nanxuan, in my opinion, they are just local chickens and tile dogs. I will just stand at the mouth of your gourd for a while, and let him have thousands of troops." No matter how many thousand horses there are, I can’t even hope to get through!”
Zhou Tong said happily: "Hu Gong has great magical powers. With you in charge of Huluguan, Nanxuan's army will never come back!"
"No!"
Hu Gong patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I can't do it myself. I can only teach you the formations and weapons. The important task of defending the city must be done by General Zhou himself."
