Bai Cai and Gu Bo led an army of ten thousand people to occupy the city lord's palace and became the chief officials of the land.
It was approaching late at night when a wisp of white robe suddenly floated outside the city.
The white robe quietly floated into the city lord's mansion and landed in the courtyard.
There was always someone waiting for him in the courtyard.
"Elder Xi, you are polite!"
Bai Cai, Gu Bo and others stood up to greet each other.
This Elder Xi was the white robe floating over. He nodded slightly when he saw this.
Then he was admitted to the middle hall.
A dinner table was set up in the courtyard, with fine wine and delicacies.
Seeing that the other party had a good attitude, Elder Xi's tense expression softened slightly.
Bai Cai poured a full bottle of wine for him.
The other party stretched out his hand to stop him, and went straight to the point: "How did my junior brother die? I hope the two commanders will give me an explanation."
Bai Cai and Gu Bo looked at each other.
Gu Bo stood up, cupped his hands and said: "Elder Xi, that day Elder He and I went out to fight against the rebel army. The army marched to Daze in the north. The sky was dark and foggy..."
"Elder He fought with the monks in the enemy's Taoist palace for dozens of rounds with no outcome. However, the situation was pressing. Although Elder He was brave, he was unable to cope with it. I advised him to leave first, but he refused to retreat. In the end, he
He missed the mark and died in the hands of the enemy."
"After that, a dragon appeared, and heaven rained blood. Elder He's contribution to this sect can be learned from heaven and earth."
Bai Cai, who was listening on the sidelines, was speechless. Why was the version he heard different?
Elder Xi's nose felt sore when he heard this, and he was on the verge of tears. He was greatly shocked.
After listening, I didn't speak for a long time.
He picked up the wine glass in front of him and poured the hot wine into the moonlight.
"I didn't expect that although my junior brother is usually cautious, he can be so brave on the battlefield. He knows the righteousness, ignores life and death, and knows how to repay his kindness. It is really not easy."
Bai Cai nodded repeatedly: "Elder Xi is absolutely right."
After Elder Xi paid tribute to his junior brother, his expression turned cold again.
He snorted coldly: "What kind of background does this Taoist from the rebellion army have that he can kill my junior brother?"
"My junior brother is also a pill-forming monk, and his combat prowess in the sect is second only to mine."
Monks are usually divided into three realms: the foundation building stage, the elixir forming stage, and the Nascent Soul stage.
Foundation-building monks can be considered to have the fighting power of Qi-blood warriors, possessing the basic ability to travel in the world, but in fact, before each monk can become a Foundation-building monk, he still has to go through a period of Qi training.
Martial arts practitioners base themselves on cultivating Qi and blood.
Taoists are based on Qi training.
Therefore, ascetics can also be called "qi refiners".
Qi training is the foundation. After building the foundation, you can step into the door of spiritual practice.
When building the foundation and forming the elixir, it will promote the transformation of the life level, and the life span will also be greatly increased.
For example, monks who form alchemy can live for more than two hundred years.
Pill-forming monks are like middle-level warriors in the realm of strength. They have many incredible and complicated methods. They can also fly in the air for a short period of time and learn the art of climbing clouds. They are also regarded as gods-like figures by the people.
Above the pill formation, there are Nascent Soul monks who live for more than five hundred years.
Nascent Soul monks are too rare. The monks who can live for such a long time are usually at the level of old monsters. They have no time to hide in caves all day long to practice, and rarely come out to travel around the world.
It is said that among the top monastic sects in the world such as Taoist Palace and Wanping Sect, there are Nascent Soul monks who have survived for hundreds of years.
Elder Xi said this because he felt that even if his junior brother could not defeat others, he should not be killed directly.
Gu Bo said in a deep voice: "The Taoist monk in the rebel army is very powerful. Because this monk is in the army, I dare not act rashly in the past few days."
This statement holds water.
There are few ascetics and their methods are diverse. If there are ascetics on one side and there are no ascetics on the other side, there will naturally be a gap between the two sides.
When Elder Xi heard this, he felt secretly flattered, as if Bai Cai and Gu Bo had been waiting for him.
He nodded and said: "In that case, let Pindao come and meet the master of this Taoist palace."
Bai Cai and Gu Bo were overjoyed and quickly toasted to him again to thank him.
Elder Xi, who came to the church to support him, also had a fiery temper. After drinking a glass of wine, he said: "Without further delay, why don't the two commander-in-chief Qu take Pindao to the city for a visit? Pindao can also use Taoism to explore the other party's reality.
"
Bai Cai didn't expect Elder Xi to have such means, and he was even more delighted: "Dare you disobey your orders?"
Later, Bai Cai and Gu Bo led a wave of Wanping soldiers and Elder Xi up the northern city wall.
Standing on the city wall and looking north, you can see a few lights in the distance.
The cool summer breeze blew in the night sky, and everyone was refreshed.
"Elder, look, there is the camp of officers and soldiers!"
Bai Cai pointed to the camp of the rebel army, which was particularly conspicuous in the dark night.
Elder Xi took a step forward and scolded in a low voice: "Step back and watch me cast a spell!"
Several people quickly moved out of the way, leaving room for the elder to cast spells.
I saw Elder Xi's body glowing with green fluorescence.
This green light grew in the wind, and in a moment it turned into a huge flag. There were thousands of green lights flashing on the flag. He shook it gently, and the green light flew out from the flag and turned into a ball under the night.
A spiritual bird.
The spiritual bird flew twice on the North City wall.
"go!"
Hearing an urgent order from Elder Xi, he flapped his wings and flew towards the camp of the rebel army.
Is the movement so loud and obvious?
Bai Cai and Gu Bo were dumbfounded. Isn't it a bit too arrogant to be so fancy?
The two of them had some doubts, and then they saw the green spiritual bird waving a few times, black ripples appearing on its body, and disappearing into the night in an instant.
Damn, it turns out you can still be invisible!
There was no problem now. The two looked at each other and smiled happily.
In the past few days, spies have been sent in many directions to explore the camp of the rebel army, but they still don't know whether the rebel army is real or not.
Now with the help of the monks in the alchemy stage, we will soon know the reality of the rebel army.
The two looked at Elder Xi.
Elder Xi closed his eyes and concentrated on the control.
The cool breeze blows on the city, and the night is as dark as ink.
After a long time, Elder Xi suddenly opened his eyes.
While everyone was puzzled, the huge green flag was folded up.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Bai Cai and Gu Bo only slightly noticed that a green light flashed into Elder Xi's body.
Elder Xi frowned.
"How is it? Elder, how many people are there on the other side?"
"Fifty thousand, or one hundred thousand?"
Gu Bo asked hurriedly.
They had been pushed too hard by the rebel forces in the past few days and dared to block the city. They subconsciously believed that the strength of the rebel army would not be too low.
"What fifty thousand, what are you talking about?"
Elder Xi scolded and was confused by Gu Bo's question.
Gu Bo was also surprised, and his expression changed slightly: "Elder, the enemy's troops are more than tens of thousands of people? Is there really an army of one hundred thousand?"
More than 100,000?
The rebel army was a gang of insidious guys, and Gu Bo could completely imagine that the other side might have hidden some troops.
Bai Cai also thought of this and his face didn't look good.
If the opponent really has a lot of troops, then you should be lucky that you didn't act rashly.
Elder Xi shouted angrily and cursed: "Are you crazy? Where did the other party come from with an army of 100,000 people? My Spirit Bird Technique sent a message that the other party only has 5,000 people at most!"
Where did the 100,000 troops come from?
Elder Xi shouted loudly, directly waking up Bai Cai and Gu Bo who were in the midst of their own strategy.
The two of them were stunned, there were only five thousand people?
impossible?
How dare 5,000 people come to block their big city of 50,000 elite soldiers?
The first reaction of the two people was that it was impossible. The other party had used some method to conceal Elder Xi's Taoism. The second reaction was that they might have been deceived. The other party was just a weak and partial master from the beginning to the end.
After thinking about it like this, and recalling all the actions of the rebel army, the faces of Bai Cai and Gu Bo became increasingly ugly.
"Straight bitch! These stupid officers and soldiers!"
Gu Bo became furious and hammered the battlements hard.
The battlements were smashed by him, and a lot of bricks and stones fell down.
I was deceived again. All life and death arenas and battles before battle are all lies.
Gu Bo felt a rush of blood rushing straight to his brain, and he wished he could unite his troops and fight out of the city.
At this moment, a sergeant hurried over.
"Two Qu commanders came to report from the south of the city."
Bai Cai's face was livid. Although he was very angry, he still had a trace of sobriety and reason.
When I heard the news that it was Tan Ma, I immediately asked the sergeant to bring the news.
"The horse exploration in the south of the city found traces of a large number of officers and soldiers entering the mountains. The traces are a bit blurry. They were left in the rain a few days ago. It is speculated that they may be the movements of the rebel army in the north of the city."
Before the sergeant finished speaking, Gu Bo angrily rebuked: "Asshole, Elder Xi just found out the truth about the rebel army camp. Where did you get the traces of the officers and soldiers? It's just nonsense!"
The sergeant was very wronged by Gu Bo. He was just a microphone. What does this have to do with him?
Bai Cai stopped Gu Bo and asked in a deep voice: "Have you found out clearly?"
The sergeant said hurriedly: "Tanma is still being investigated and identified."
Elder Xi, who had put away his magical powers, walked up to the two Qu commanders. He probably understood what was going on, and his face couldn't help but reveal a hint of sarcasm: "Perhaps the two Qu commanders are asking the rebels to divide their forces?"
"Five thousand here, five thousand there, go south to the Xunshan Mountains, we are going to hunt the beetles!"
When Bai Cai Gu Bo heard this, he was so shocked that he broke into a cold sweat.
If this is true, then Xunshan City may be in danger.
You must warn Taoist Tianniu as soon as possible!
Both of them felt deeply humiliated at the same time.
The other side is too trusting. They only have so many people to block the city, but they still dare to divide their troops?
