Chapter 191
Can Lao is a veteran who has retired from the battlefield and is unable to fight again.
The women and children are the remnants of the former city residents.
There are no young and strong men, because almost all the young and strong men in the city have been drafted into the army. Either their temples are white with frost, or they have died in the battle and stayed in the forest of steles under the isolated city.
Forty years of blood and tears can only be told and listened to in the desert.
Now that we have finally left the desert, the old soldiers naturally have many things to talk about with the women and children in the city.
But besides recounting the past events of Gucheng, they also had a strange thought lingering in their minds.
Why were the defenders at Anxi Pass so surprised?
Didn't Qiao Shuangsen, the commander of the Immortal Fighting Army in the past, say that Dayan had never forgotten this isolated city and even specially formed an Immortal Fighting Army?
Now that they have come out alive, why are the defenders so surprised, as if they have never heard of this remnant army in an isolated city?
And where is the so-called immortal-killing army that the Qiao family calls?
"Master Bai, Master Bai..." a non-commissioned officer reminded the stunned guard Mrs. Bai:
"My condolences, Master Bai, but today's matter is of great importance and must be reported immediately!"
At first, the sergeant didn't believe that a lone army could stand alone in the desert for forty years, but when he saw the faces of the soldiers clearly and saw the disabled old women and children walking out of the stone city, he had no choice but to believe it.
"Yes, it's time to report it to the court...I'll revise a letter right away." Mrs. Bai came back to her senses and nodded solemnly.
"No, Master Bai...it's not reported to the court." the sergeant reminded:
"Have you forgotten?"
"Our Anxi Pass area has been designated by the imperial court as the territory of King Qin. King Qin just came to take over it recently. So it is King Qin who we should report to."
"Prince Qin? That's right." Madam Bai nodded.
And at this time.
Captain Hai had already walked to Madam Bai's side and couldn't wait to say:
"grown ups."
"May I ask what the situation is like in Kyushu now? Have you ever heard of...the Immortal Defeating Army?"
"The Immortal-Destroying Army? What is the Immortal-Destroying Army?" Madam Bai asked subconsciously.
She was in a daze and asked the question directly.
Captain Hai stiffened, and the expression on his face gradually turned bitter.
He should have known...
It's not just Mrs. Bai who is lucky, there's also him.
The questions and answers of these two people also fell into the ears of many soldiers and people behind them, making them all stunned.
The generations of Qiao family members who entered the isolated city brought them hope.
So even though the Qiao family members have died in the battle, these Qiao family members are still deeply impressed in their hearts.
At this time, an old man silently walked out of the crowd.
Qiao Mu had been watching silently and did not make a sound. He seemed very quiet.
But now he had to stand up and speak out.
"Thank you for your hard work, everyone." He said in a deep voice:
"I am Qiao Shui. Qiao Shuangsen, Qiao Jisen, Qiao Jisen and others are all juniors in my clan, and I am here for them."
"The younger generations of my family are like fire, impulsive and impatient, so I lied to you."
Qiao Mu said in a deep voice:
"I'm sorry, everyone. In fact, the story of defeating the Immortal Army has always been false and never existed."
Fake...fake?
Captain Hai and other veterans were shocked.
At the beginning, Defeating the Immortal Army was just a lie jointly spun by Captain Hai and Qiao Shuangsen.
The soldiers and people of Gucheng had reached the end of their rope at that time. Even if the Qiao family acted a little fake, some people would believe it.
Just like the illusion the little match girl saw when she lit the match before she froze to death, no matter how illusory it is, they are willing to believe it.
But the Qiao family acted too realistically.
There is also the "Xumi Mountain King Sutra" written by Lao Dang Yizhuang, and the Qiao family has repeatedly broken through the Immortal Gate Formation in the name of defeating the Immortal Army. These are all deeds that have truly surpassed the imagination of Captain Hai and others.
So they really believed it.
Several generations of the Qiao family had sacrificed themselves on the battlefield to protect them and get out of the desert. Now this Qiao Shui in front of them told them that the Immortal Defeating Army was fake?

"..."
It's quite a coincidence.
Chapter 219 The truth is the sharpest knife (6k
There has never been any immortal-killing army in this world.
This is the truth.
Rather, this is what should be done.
To go against the trend is to go against the general trend, and those who dare to act like a chariot are naturally a minority among the minority.
Such as the sword banishing immortals.
As the most powerful person in martial arts forty years ago, his aptitudes were astonishing, and he even practiced immortality. However, in his later years, his energy and blood also declined. He needed Qiao Mu's nearly a thousand years of skills to complement him in order to transform into a sword and immortal. The sect elder Qingzhuo Taoist resisted.
Now that the residents of Gucheng have left the desert, the lies that Qiao Mu told in cooperation with Captain Hai will naturally become unsustainable.
It's just that although these generations of Qiao's family are lying, everyone can understand his good intentions after thinking about it for a moment.
Not to mention, they have sacrificed their lives for this lie one after another, and their blood was sprinkled on the yellow sand and turned into a handful of loess.
At this time, the old man who called himself Qiao Shui reunited with Qiao Xiaoming, who was holding the body of the unknown old man from the Qiao family. The two looked at each other in silence.
The storyteller's clairvoyance also sighed slightly.
"There really is no immortal army in this world, only the Qiao family who die calmly."
The clairvoyant was born in Tingchao Tower. Even he had never heard of the existence of the Immortal Defeating Army, so he had always had doubts. Now the suspicion in his heart has been confirmed.
"Destroying the Immortal Army is a lie. This matter is actually a trivial matter compared to the current situation in Kyushu." Clairvoyant sighed slightly.
What is more tragic than "We are about to fight to the death, why did Your Majesty surrender first?" is that the remnants of the isolated army have held on for forty years, while the Great Yan court behind them has knelt for forty years!
The soldiers and people of Gucheng came out of the desert. Although they narrowly escaped death, it was up to Jian Banxian and the Qiao family to work together to find a way out.
But what greeted them was not the hope brought by the Defeating Immortal Army, nor the magnificent blueprint that Qiao Shuangsen had drawn for them in the past, but the bloody truth.
Dayan is already rotten.
The one hundred thousand soldiers of forty years ago were already the last will of resistance of the Great Yan court.
That's why the defenders at Anxi Pass were so surprised and couldn't believe the deeds of the old soldiers in front of them.
...
Over the Anxi Pass, above the clouds.
The pale-faced Qingzhuo Taoist looked down at the Anxi Pass below, and the various behaviors of the residents and soldiers were reflected in his consciousness.
Although he was scared away by the Qiao family.
But as an elder of the Immortal Sect, he would not be afraid of a mere warrior and run away.
He was not escaping, he just achieved his goal of banishing the immortal by taking away the sword, and because his Taoist foundation was damaged, he retreated temporarily.
The Baili Desert is the so-called secret realm of the sect created by the Immortal Sect. Naturally, such things cannot be made public, otherwise it may have an adverse impact on the incense of the believers.
It is naturally inappropriate to let the soldiers and civilians of the isolated city leave like this.
So here he is again.
Although he was injured and his condition was no longer at its peak, it was easy to kill all the remaining soldiers and bury them together with the resting gate.
Just as he was about to take action, his eyes were fixed on the face of the old man from the Qiao family who called himself Qiao Shui.
"Were there really other members of the Qiao family who came to help? Or I was cautious and did not take action immediately." Taoist Qingzhuo frowned and stopped holding the magic formula in his hand.
At first, he didn't care about the Qiao family. When Daozhen mentioned the Qiao family to him, he laughed at him because Daozhen had little knowledge and took a common martial arts family so seriously.
Then he, an elder of the Immortal Sect, almost fell into the hands of the Qiao family.
Although his body was not dead and his Tao disappeared, he was injured as a result. His Tao foundation was damaged and he was no longer at his peak. He paid the price for his contempt.
"This matter can be one and the same..." As soon as Taoist Qingzhuo said this, he remembered the second old man from the Qiao family who used the "Sword Cutting Technique" to let him temporarily avoid the edge, so he changed his words:
"No, it's just three things."
The first member of the Qiao family was Qiao Kesen, who worked together with Jian Banxian to slash out a sword, burning himself and piercing the sky. While breaking through the Immortal Sect's formation, it also damaged Elder Qingzhuo's foundation.
At that time, Taoist Qingzhuo thought that such a thing would never happen again.
After all, it is difficult for a fool to sacrifice himself for others to appear again.
Then the second Qiao family came immediately.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly and escaped in time.
Now that a third member of the Qiao family has appeared, how could he stand up so easily?
After practicing the immortal way for more than a thousand years, why should he fight against this ordinary warrior who is less than a fraction of his age?
Today's Qingzhuo Taoist has lost his foundation. Even if Qiao Shui only has a 10% chance of threatening him, he is not willing to take the risk.
"Don't be in a hurry. Mortals have a short lifespan, just like a mayfly that lives and dies. By the time I come back from a retreat to recover from my injuries, maybe the Qiao family will have died of old age, and I can survive him to death."
Taoist Qingzhuo finally made his choice. He held the stone sword in his hand and turned it into a rainbow of light, flying from the sky above Ansi Pass to the Dao Dao Sect.
Although Taoist Qingzhuo was afraid of Qiao Shui and was unwilling to fight with his wounded body, the sect's secret realm of "Baili Desert" had been forcibly destroyed, which was not a small matter.
I guess there will be people coming from the Dao Dao Sect soon.
As the elder of the Immortal Sect who single-handedly caused the current situation, Taoist Qingzhuo naturally had to deal with the end of the matter.
..
The Great Dao Sect.
Daozhen landed in front of a large hall. A water mirror in front of the hall shimmered, and in the mirror was a vast desert and a half-collapsed empty city.
In addition to him, there were also several sect deacons. They frowned and stared at the scene in the water mirror, chatting and talking.
When Elder Qingzhuo dismissed the sect's deacons and decided to take action on his own, Daozhen and others naturally thought that the matter was settled and could be resolved safely.
