Guo Si fell, his soul and true spirit were scattered, leaving only a lifeless body lying on the ground.
The Xuanming Tower 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 has the cultivation ability to overcome two difficulties. Relying on "Jialan Xiang", he actually made Guo Si, who had already overcome two disasters and seven disasters, fall deeply into the illusion. He 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 have to be careful to avoid falling into other people's ways!
This is what most people have in mind.
Liang Yan, on the other hand, had a calm expression and clasped his hands behind his back, looking untroubled.
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 his hands to Liang Yan and then reported: "Commander Qi, all the defenders in Yunya City were killed. As for the poisonous cave where the poisonous people were 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 and this method of making poisonous people will never 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 will 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 you must pass through Huluguan, 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 attained Taoism by chance and was trapped in a secret realm for more than 800 years before he was able to escape. Once he came out, he had the cultivation ability to resolve calamity.
It surprised many people.
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, where more than a hundred beautiful female cultivators danced in the courtyard, looking very intoxicated.
After three rounds of drinking, everyone was reciting poems and discussing Taoism, and they were in high spirits. Suddenly they heard someone coming from outside to report.
"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 nuns by his side, drinking with him and making fun of him constantly. How could he care 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 Zhou Tong heard this, he sobered up a little, pushed the beauties around him away, and sat up straight.
"Could it be that the mayors from other cities are looking for my bad luck? Then we can't meet each other even more. If we go outside the city, we will tell him that Zhou is in seclusion, and no one will see him!"
"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 on 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: "You can't find many 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 in for a big disaster, but you are still here singing and dancing, 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, with expressions of surprise and uncertainty on their faces.
What was surprising was the level of cultivation of the man outside the city. It was really terrifying! What was puzzling was what he just said. Huluguan was firmly located between the two major cities. It was backed by natural dangers and was easy to defend but difficult to attack. How could it be such a disaster?
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 outstretched and golden hair all over his body. He is walking very hard in the strong wind.
"Humph! Humph!"
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 general order to open the city wall ban 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 formations 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 headed towards the old man with a hood over his head.
"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, with a look of horror in its little eyes.
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 swollen pig demon's head.
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 his expression changed greatly.
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 trace of the old man under the city wall!
The person who was laughing and scolding me just now disappeared right before his eyes in the blink of an eye. It was so 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 restrictions on the city wall and went directly from outside the city to the top of the city.
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 felt that he was being imprisoned with great power. How could he dare to disobey? He nodded hastily and confessed!
But after a while, he came to his senses and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I wonder what crime Zhou has committed? Fellow Taoist, please clarify."
"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.
Spirit Snake, the three passes of Yunya are now very powerful and are coming to your Hulu Pass!"
"There is such a thing!"
Zhou Tong was so shocked that his knees softened and he almost fell to the ground.
It's not surprising that he was so cowardly. It was just because the old man's cultivation level was too high and his aura was fierce. He subconsciously thought that the old man was a supervisor sent by Dan Yangsheng, and he was frightened in his heart, so he lost his grace.
However, after all, Zhou Tong is also a great monk in the Tribulation Realm. He has experienced the baptism of natural and man-made disasters, and his temperament is 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 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 is extremely strict in governing the army. If you make any mistakes while working under him, you will be severely punished. Losing your identity token is a serious crime. No one dares to be careless, but the old man in front of him has an indifferent expression.
Don't let Zhou Tong doubt his true identity.
"That's a long way to go, it's just a small token. If you lose it, you'll lose it. At worst, I'll just 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 opponent 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 a wave of medicinal power dissolving, and the disgusting smell rushed straight to his forehead, making him want to vomit.
"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 blood and energy stronger and his magic power purer.
This time, Zhou Tong was even more confused.
"What exactly do you want to do?"
"What to do? Of course I'm here to help you defend the city! Without me, your Huluguan is like a chicken or a dog. It will be destroyed by Nan Xuan in one blow, and all of you will be turned into ashes by then!"
"You and I are not relatives, so 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 was so powerful before that 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 top of the city and said with a smile: "Although there are many masters in Nanxuan, in my opinion, they are just chickens and dogs. I will just stand at the mouth of your gourd for a while, and let him have thousands of troops."
Even with ten thousand horses, there is no way I can 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."
