After Long Chen came out of the secret room, he immediately walked towards Yu Wenkai's room. As soon as he arrived outside the door, he saw Yu Wenkai sitting outside the door, holding a wine jar in his hand, while Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue were walking around anxiously.
"coming!"
When Yang Hu saw Long Chen, he turned to look at Yu Wenkai, pointed at Long Chen, and shouted happily.
Yu Wenkai raised his head and saw Long Chen striding towards him, his eyes narrowed into a straight line, and he threw the wine jar aside. He stood up happily and said with a smile, "That's how it feels!"
Back then, Long Yuan and Di Feng were practicing in seclusion, and this was how they felt after they came out.
"A bit like General Long."
Deputy General Tan Wenyue stepped forward and squeezed Long Chen's body.
When Yu Wenkai came over, Long Chen bowed and said, "Old General."
Yu Wenkai walked up to it, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Brat, fortunately you made the right bet."
Last night, Yu Wenkai had been waiting for news, fearing that Long Chen might make a mistake...??.
Long Chen smiled and said: "Thank you, old general, for your concern. This junior is extremely smart and his guess is right."
Yu Wenkai laughed loudly and said: "Fart, you are so smart, you guessed wrong last time."
At first, Long Chen thought he could break through by gathering the first blood of the four princesses.
It turned out not to be the case at all.
Lieutenant General Yang Hu smiled and said: "General, this guy is really smart. He pretended to be public for personal gain and deceived four princesses."
Yu Wenkai smiled and said: "Yes, the brat just wanted to deceive the four princesses. He only used the right method after he succeeded."
Long Chen laughed awkwardly. In fact, he really didn't know, and he really didn't intend to play the collectible card game.
"The cultivation of the junior and the Holy Master has improved, but I don't know how the Martial Saint Ghost Girl is. Only by playing against each other can we know the difference."
The empress said that she had broken through to the true realm, but that was actually wrong, because there was no breakthrough in the realm, she just became more powerful.
Yu Wenkai said expectantly: "Martial Saint will arrive tomorrow. I hope to see General Long's style tomorrow."
Long Chen smiled and said, "How dare you compare yourself to your ancestors."
Yu Wenkai shook his head and sighed: "When General Long broke through, it was already 4 You are over 0 years old, how old are you!"
For Long Chen to have cultivated to this point at such an age, even if it were four hundred years ago, he would still be an extremely powerful person.
To be fair, Long Chen has surpassed Long Yuan.
Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue nodded slightly, both of them felt that Long Chen was awesome.
"The old general has received too much praise, and the younger generation cannot deserve it."
Long Chen also knew in his heart that he was young and it was not easy to achieve such a level of cultivation at such an age.
"Okay, as long as you're okay, I'm going to take a nap. It's time to settle accounts with Wu Sheng tomorrow."
Yu Wenkai was in a good mood, Long Chen said with a smile: "Have a good rest, old general."
Yu Wenkai went back to his room to rest, and Yang Hu and Tan Wenyue also went back to their room to rest.
Long Chen looked at the sky, then turned around and went back to his room to rest.
The process of blood transfusion is very taxing on the body, so you must rest immediately.
.
North of Yanmen Pass.
The three horses galloped south quickly, with Wei Ying leading Zhu Zhen and Li Man to investigate the situation ahead.
Armed with war horses, Wu Sheng led an army of 90,000 people to march day and night, and soon arrived near Yanmen Pass.
After the vanguard general Xia Feng was killed, Wu Sheng became vigilant and sent three guards to conduct reconnaissance first.
"stop!"
Wei Ying shouted, Zhu Zhen and Li Man stopped.
The guard eagle squinted his eyes and looked south, revealing a black dot in the distance.
"Beacon Tower."
Li Man stood on the horse and looked at the black spot in the south and said.
Based on his own memories, Wei Ying calculated the distance in his mind and said, "This place is still a hundred miles away from Yanmen Pass. How come there is a beacon tower?"
The ghost was very aware of the matter of Long Chen traveling hundreds of miles to set up a beacon, but he didn't say anything about it.
Because Guite suffered a big loss here, when talking about Beacon Tower, he will mention
and his dark history.
"Boss, continue?"
Zhu Zhen waited for Wei Ying's instructions.
There is a beacon tower ahead, and it is easy to spot if you continue forward. If you do not go forward, this place is a hundred miles away from Yanmen Pass, and you cannot know clearly what is going on at Yanmen Pass.
Wei Ying looked at the sky and saw that night was coming soon.
"We'll go in on foot when night falls."
The target on horseback is too big and the hoofbeats are too loud, making it easy to be discovered.
The three of them are all very good at Qinggong. Sneaking on foot is more secluded, and a two hundred-mile round trip is not a problem.
"But if we go on foot, we won't have enough time. The Lord is waiting for news about us."
Zhu Zhen raised his head and looked at the sky. He counted the time in his mind and felt that it was too late.
Wu Sheng's 90,000-strong army slowed down its march behind, waiting for news from the three guard eagles.
If you hike, by the time you get back to where you came from, one night will definitely have passed.
By then, Wu Sheng's army may have arrived here.
Wei Ying is in a bit of a dilemma. As a reconnaissance rider, if the message is not sent back in time, it means the mission has failed.
On the battlefield, late news is not news.
"Leave now!"
The guard eagle decided not to wait for darkness to fall and immediately sneaked south.
The three men immediately looked for a hiding place, tied up their horses, and then headed south lightly.
There was a beacon tower directly in front, so the three of them took a detour from the side.
On the beacon tower, soldiers on guard looked north with binoculars.
Everyone has received orders that the ghost army is about to arrive, and they will be on full alert to the north. Once the enemy is discovered, they will immediately light up the smoke.
However, they also received an order at the same time. If only a few came in, they would be the enemy's waiting cavalry, and they would use a flying eagle to notify Yanmen Pass.
The sentries on the beacon tower checked carefully, but found no trace of the three guard eagles, because the three guard eagles moved too fast and bypassed the beacon tower in a blink of an eye. The distance between each beacon tower is very far. As long as you pass through the middle, it will be difficult for the soldiers on the beacon tower to detect them.
The three Guardian Eagles quickly passed through the gap. Their movements were as light as swallows flying across the water. A lump of earth appeared under their feet. The three people's attention was on the beacon towers on both sides. There was the whistling wind in their ears. No one cared about this.
Little bumpkin.
The three of them passed by in a flash. Inside the small earthen bun, a soldier was chewing dried meat. He squatted down, swallowed what was in his mouth, and whispered: "Three of us are here, very fast!"
Long Chen had seen the methods of the guard eagles, and he knew that if Wu Sheng sent the guard eagles to spy on Yanmen Pass, the surrounding beacon towers would not be able to stop them, and the guard eagles could choose to pass through the gap.
Therefore, Long Chen arranged such a small earth bag in the middle of the beacon tower.
Dig a few meters deep and cover it with a layer of turf, leaving only a small opening facing the north, with two people inside.
The soil in the grassland does not have high moisture content, so squatting in it is not a problem.
"Do you see clearly?"
another soldier asked excitedly.
The soldier said: "Look clearly, there are three of them, absolutely right!"
Another soldier put his ear to the ground and listened carefully to what was going on outside.
After making sure that no one was outside, the soldier slowly opened the lid, raised a yellow flag in his hand, and waved it towards the beacon tower in the distance.
When the soldiers on the beacon tower saw the waving flag, they immediately shouted: "The flag is moving!"
The soldier below immediately brought a yellow flag and handed it to the soldier on guard. The soldier took it and shook it a few times at the earth bag. The soldier on the earth bag immediately closed the lid.
"Someone slipped by?"
asked a veteran at the bottom.
The soldier on guard was a little discouraged and said: "They saw it, damn, I'm blind!"
The soldiers on guard felt annoyed that they had not detected the ghost clan.
The veteran said: "It's good if you see it, hurry up and release the eagle!"
Soon, a snow eagle flapped its wings and flew high, rushing towards the direction of Yanmen Pass.
