Chapter 652: The war started and the border was lost
A few months later, Mo Juren returned to Fengyuanjing base again, while Han Li and Nangong Wan left first on the way and flew to Tiantian City.
The situation at the base remained the same as before, without much change. However, one thing surprised him. Chu Yeyun was actually injured.
This matter is obviously no longer a secret. There are many discussions among the monks who come and go. As for the specific reason, it is not clear, but it is a fact that the other party has been in seclusion for several months and has not come out.
When he returned to his residence, he happened to see Qing and the Dongfang family sisters. They seemed to be explaining something. The two women listened carefully and cautiously.
The appearance of Mo Juren naturally attracted the attention of the three girls. A trace of joy flashed in his eyes, and he immediately said to the two sisters:
"You guys go down first, and remember to notify me in time if anything happens."
"Disciple, I obey." The two sisters bowed with unusual respect, and at the same time bowed to Mo Juren who was approaching, and then hurried out of the hospital impatiently.
If I wanted to perform my best during the days I was stationed because of Dongmen Tu's instructions, I might be able to win someone's favor.
But now it was completely the opposite. After knowing the relationship between Qing and Elder Mo, the two women felt extremely uneasy and did not dare to stay for a moment longer, for fear that if they stayed too long, Senior Qing would misunderstand.
"Is someone injured?" Mo Juren had just heard something about the situation. It seemed that something happened to a disciple of the Yuling Sect.
"A group of Mulan monks rushed into a temporary station at the border. The opponent was very strong. After a hard battle, although they repelled the attack, they still paid a heavy price.
This disciple happened to be stationed there, so he was inevitably affected by the disaster. Fortunately, with the help of the magic talisman you gave him, he saved his life. It was just that he was seriously injured and could not recover in a short time..." Li Qing introduced the situation in detail, and listened.
After finishing, Mo Juren couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
It has only been a few months since the invasion of the Mulan people. Is this the beginning of the war?
"How many disciples are currently on mission outside?"
"Thirteen people." She didn't hesitate at all and gave a definite answer directly. It can be seen that she has already grasped all the situations of these disciples in her heart.
"Thirteen people?" Mo Juren thought for a moment and said immediately,
"It's time to find a way to temporarily bring them back."
"You mean, the invasion of the Mulan people is about to begin?" Liao Qing was moved in her heart and asked quickly. The other party had specifically revealed the secret of the invasion to her before. Although she was shocked, she did not doubt whether it was true or not.
But this war is definitely no small matter.
"It won't take more than half a year." Mo Juren nodded and continued,
"We must move them away from the front line as much as possible. Otherwise, once the war officially begins, you and I will not be able to take care of it."
"I will find a way." Liao Qing's eyes flashed slightly and she said again,
"Now that Chu Yeyun is injured and Master Shuyu doesn't like to deal with trivial matters, my right to speak has improved a lot. It is not difficult to complete this matter."
"How did Chu Yeyun get injured?" Mo Juren was a little curious.
"I don't know the specific reason, and he didn't disclose it. I only know that the other party went out a few months ago and suffered serious injuries after returning." Liao Qing shook his head slightly and explained.
"To be able to injure a Nascent Soul monk, the things he encounters must not be simple." Mo Juren's eyes flashed slightly, but he didn't pay much attention to it. He put away his thoughts and immediately told the other party about his experience of going out.
Hearing that he was causing trouble in Linglong Mountain and forcibly saving people from Wei Kunyang's hands, the Biyue Sect had to bow its head and pay a large amount of compensation, etc.
Such an ups and downs experience shocked Lingqing's heart, and she looked at the other person with brilliant eyes.
"So, Wan'er is fine?"
"Follow Han Li to Tiantian City. It shouldn't take long for you to meet."
"This damn girl didn't even tell me when she came out. She's really heartless." Liao Qing snorted, but she couldn't hide the joy in her eyes.
…
Although Mo Juren came back, he did not interfere in trivial matters, but still let Qing be responsible for handling it.
The opponent now has a huge say in the base, so in the next few months, all the disciples of the Yuling Sect were gradually transferred away from the front line and turned to complete other tasks.
All this was done very secretly and did not attract anyone's attention, especially since Chu Yeyun could not go out in seclusion and Master Shuyu had no interest in trivial matters.
In the past few months, the big trade fair in Tiantian City was held as scheduled. Han Li sent back information that he and Nangong Wan had collected a lot of materials separately, but they did not meet expectations.
These were nothing, and Mo Juren didn't care. He would just look for them later. However, it was another thing mentioned by the other party that aroused his interest.
Marquis Nanlong, the person who invited Han Li to explore the 'Cangkun Ruins' in the original work, actually met him again in this life, and also extended an invitation.
Naturally, Mo Juren had already considered the ruins here.
There were indeed some pretty good things in there, but they were far from precious to him.
Because of this, he never thought about getting involved from the beginning.
As for Han Li, the other party was obviously very interested in this and wanted to accept the invitation, but he just asked for his opinion out of caution.
Mo Juren did not stop him. The treasure was just one of them. This was also a rare experience for the other party, so why not do it. Besides, with the other party's strength, there would be no danger.
He just reminded the other party that the matter is not that simple and requires constant vigilance.
He didn't need to say much about this, as Han Li would have noticed it himself. After that, he left Nangong Wan behind to continue collecting materials, while he met Nanlong Hou and his party and sneaked towards the Mulan Grassland.
"Master Cangkun!" In the yard, Mo Juren murmured in a low voice. According to Han Li, the members of this treasure hunting team have not changed much. If everything goes well, the soul of an ancient demon will also be separated.
It will be brought out just like in the original work.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! He must kill this demon, whether it is a split soul or a main soul, otherwise it will affect some of his plans in the future. But I am not in a hurry right now, let's
Wouldn't it be wonderful if he continued to deceive the Ghost Spirit Sect into building a teleportation array into the Valley of Fallen Demons?
Thinking of the ancient demon's main soul, he suddenly thought, and a small, dark and lustrous ring appeared in the palm of his hand. This was one of the two rings in the original work, and it was also the one in the hand of Senior Sister Nangong Wan.
He had exchanged it together when he was in the Moon-Sealing Sect. This thing had no other use, it was just used to avoid and control the Northern Yuan Light.
If you want to reach the soul of the Ancient Demon Lord, the two ritual rings are indispensable. The yang ring in your hand is secondary, and the yin ring in the Cangkun ruins is the most important.
This is also his only worry. Without Silver Moon's help, Han Li's harvest this time will definitely not be as good as the original. As a result, it is not certain whether he can still get the Yin Ring.
Of course, I was just worried and didn't pay too much attention to it. No matter whose hands the Yin Ring ends up in, Falling Demon Valley will still be opened, and Nanlong Marquis will not give up exploring it.
In this way, you have many ways to solve it.
While he was thinking about it, suddenly, a rapid chiming of bells suddenly rang, and it spread throughout the entire base in an instant.
Mo Juren frowned slightly. If he remembered correctly, this should be the alarm bell of the base. Once it rings, it means something big is going to happen. And at this time, it is obvious what will happen.
Sure enough, as the courtyard door opened, the two sisters from the east gate hurried in.
"Mo...Uncle Mo, the Mulan people have invaded." Dongmen Yun stopped and said urgently.
"Don't worry, the sky won't fall yet." Mo Juren looked calm, not worried at all. At the same time, when he heard the bell, he also walked out of the room.
"Tell me about the specific situation?"
"News came back from the front line that the Mulan people dispatched several elite forces to launch a surprise attack. The temporary garrison at the border could not withstand it at all, and was quickly defeated.
At this time, these elite forces are gathering towards the base with all their strength. With the opponent's speed, it is estimated that they will arrive in less than an hour at such a short distance..."
"It's fast enough, and it's secretive enough. The Nine-Nation Alliance doesn't have any spies in the Mulan Grassland, but they don't know about it at all. It shows that the Mulan people are well prepared this time." Mo Juren thought in his heart, and at the same time turned eastward.
Sister Men ordered,
"You two immediately send a message to the disciples of our sect and ask them to meet at the Akagatake Summit in the north of the Akadema Mountains as quickly as possible. Remember not to return to the base."
"Disciple, I obey." The Dongmen sisters did not dare to hesitate at all, and immediately took the order and left. After the two people disappeared, Mo Juren said to Qing Qing,
"You can personally escort them away later. Don't go to Tiantian City, go directly to Beiliang Kingdom."
"I'm leaving, you..." This was a plan that had been planned a long time ago. There is no station duty after the situation, so naturally you can leave at any time, but it is inevitable that you will feel worried.
"Don't worry, I know it well." As one of the three Nascent Soul Stage experts stationed there, Mo Juren couldn't leave his base and run away, otherwise his reputation would be really bad.
As for those disciples, except for the Dongmen sisters around him, he had already placed the rest elsewhere one after another, and they could leave quietly.
Of course, he himself will not really stick to it. If he persists for a little bit, it will not be too late to leave when the time is right.
As for the danger, unless the three great masters of the Mulan people come in person, it may be a bit tricky, otherwise it would be a dream to keep him.
The other party had already made up his mind, and it was hard to persuade him to fall in love. He took a few steps forward and gently threw himself into the other party's broad arms. He hugged her tightly with both hands and murmured softly:
"Nothing is absolute, you must be careful."
"It's okay." Mo Juren could feel the strong affection of the other party, and he was naturally moved in his heart. He gently stroked the other party's smooth jade back and comforted him.
Soon after, Ling Qing left the base with the Dongmen sisters. Mo Juren walked towards the meeting hall. As soon as he entered, he immediately saw the figures of Master Shuyu and Master Baichuan Chu Yeyun.
"Master Lingqing is extremely powerful. If he can stay and help defend against the enemy at this critical moment, the combined efforts of the four of us will definitely be able to give the Mulan people a head-on blow." But at this moment, Chu Yeyun suddenly said with a half-smile.
.
"He has already left. Why, Fellow Daoist Chu, do you have any objections?" Mo Juren smiled coldly and asked directly.
"Well... that's not true, I just feel a little pity. After all, the Mulan people are our common enemies, and they should contribute. Of course, Fellow Daoist Mo feels sorry for his confidante, so there is no harm in letting him leave first..." Chu
Ye Yun looked very understanding, but the sarcasm in his words should not be too obvious.
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Chu, please stop saying a few words. We are facing a powerful enemy, so you and I should discuss the next strategy to defend against the enemy." Although Master Shuyu has a cold personality, he is not stupid. There is no trace of Chu.
Ye Yun had something in his words and scolded him directly.
"What Fellow Daoist He said is absolutely true, but it was Chu Menglang who made a mistake. I hope Fellow Daoist Mo will not take it to heart." Chu Yeyun apologized with a 'sincere' expression. In response, Mo Juren's eyes flashed with strange color.
Then he suddenly smiled slightly and said,
"Fellow Daoist Chu is considering the overall situation, so it's okay."
Turning to look at Master Shuyu, he continued,
"As the person in charge of the base, Fellow Daoist He, just give me your instructions if you have any arrangements. Mo has no objections."
"Chu has no objection either." Chu Yeyun also expressed his position.
"Since the two fellow Taoists have said so, He will no longer hold back." Master Shuyu nodded and continued,
"You two must also know that the Fengyuanjing base is just a nameless base and not very strong. It is almost impossible to stop the invasion of the Mulan people.
Therefore, we do not need to defend here, we only need to try our best to hold back the Mulan people and delay as much time as possible for the layout and dispatch of the rear."
"This is a trivial matter, but there are only three of us in the base, and Chu is still injured, so it is impossible to resist for too long. Once he finds out that he is defeated, Chu may retreat immediately. I hope the two fellow Taoists can understand
." Chu Yeyun immediately made his attitude clear and would not give up his life for this.
"Of course, not only Fellow Daoist Chu, but also Fellow Daoist Mo and I?" Master Shuyu was not angry because of the other party's words. Instead, she agreed very much,
"It is not easy for us to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, so naturally we cannot take risks easily. The strength of the Mulan people's vanguard this time is not low, and the leaders are all at the Nascent Soul stage. Once problems are discovered, they can leave at any time.
"
"Thank you Daoist fellow He for your understanding. In that case, Chu has no objection." Chu Yeyun nodded with satisfaction and then stopped talking.
Naturally, Mo Juren had no objection and nodded in agreement.
From beginning to end, none of the three mentioned the safety of other disciples in the base, including those who escaped from the border station.
The incident happened so suddenly that the strength of the three of them alone was obviously not enough to take care of it. Even the disciples in the base, in order to buy time for the rear, would only be treated as cannon fodder.
This is the cruelty of war. The other two tacitly did not mention this, and Mo Juren would not take the initiative to remind it.
In the following time, the three began to discuss specific plans, personnel allocation, and the defense of the three positions of the base's outer protective formation, etc.
During the battle, the three men each led a team to take charge of a position. As long as the formation was unbreakable, the base would be impregnable. However, the enemy's vanguard force had limited strength after all, and it was impossible to break through it easily.
Master Shuyu and Chu Yeyun are both confident, but Mo Juren doesn't think so. Since the Mulan people came prepared, will they not know the situation of the base here?
I'm afraid something unexpected might happen by then.
After waiting for more than half an hour in the discussion, finally, powerful auras suddenly appeared in Mo Juren's consciousness.
He did not give a reminder, but continued to wait quietly until after a while, those auras appeared a hundred miles away, and the other two people also sensed them.
"It came so fast!" Master Shuyu stood up immediately and snorted coldly,
"Two fellow Taoists, please follow me outside to have a look, and also welcome the 'guests' who have come from afar!"
