At this time, people's hearts are simple. Since ancient times, people have been accustomed to staying together to stay warm and cope with various difficulties. In addition, with the rewards promised by the General Military Mansion, some self-reliant and brave people came soon and were willing to follow the General Soldier to kill them.
Kill the dragon and get rid of an evil.
Qi Yuan looked at the people gathered. Most of them were young, strong and brave people. Of course, there were also some people with strange appearances among them.
There are barefooted men in linen clothes, Taoists with faces as thick as jujubes in Taoist robes, and strangely dressed witches, wearing colorful clothes, colorful feathers on their heads, and white bone necklaces around their necks, which is quite strange.
"Um?"
Qi Yuan's eyes turned and he was suddenly startled. He found that the old man who had been doing tricks on the street had also joined in, followed by his two sons.
"It seems that this old man really knows magic, but he just doesn't know if it's powerful or not?"
Qi Yuan secretly thought to himself, if he went to this old man to become his disciple, he didn't know if he would accept him.
With all kinds of thoughts running through my mind, I reached out and touched my chin out of habit. I touched a white beard, and I was immediately frustrated.
Looking at myself compared with that old man, I don't know who is older. Even if he is really an expert hermit traveling in the mortal world, I am afraid he is not willing to accept an old man as his successor!
I remember that when Jiang Ziya went to Kunlun to become a disciple, he was only in his thirties, but he was already almost sixty!
The more Qi Yuan thought about it, the more worried he became.
More and more people gathered at the city gate, but fewer and fewer people signed up to participate in the dragon slaughter.
At this time, there was a sound of horse hooves in the distance, and a group of elite soldiers on war horses came slowly, surrounded by several generals, followed by a large group of soldiers.
The leader was a middle-aged general. His tall body looked extremely powerful, and he held a big sword majestically. Following him were two young men, a man and a woman, both wearing helmets and armor.
Full of heroic spirit.
"It's General Deng who is here."
"If the Commander-in-Chief takes action personally, he will definitely kill the evil dragon."
Listening to the discussions among the people around him, Qi Yuan knew that it was none other than Deng Jiugong, the commander-in-chief of Sanshan Pass, so the female general behind him should be his daughter Deng Chanyu.
Qi Yuan looked at her from a distance and saw that she was no more than a teenager. She had long eyebrows, fair skin, and was very beautiful. However, she had a softness that was different from ordinary girls. Instead, she looked heroic and very impressive.
One light.
Deng Jiugong came forward with his men and horses, and encouraged the people who had been summoned. After promising various rewards, he gave an order and led the way out of the city.
Qi Yuan walked behind with the crowd watching the fun, and followed the team in front from a distance.
Although the dragon is ferocious, the reason why it was able to cause huge floods and flooded many villages on both sides of the river was because of the heavy rain.
Now that the rain has stopped, there are General Deng Jiugong, who can command a hundred thousand troops to guard Sanshan Pass for many years, and many warriors blocking the front. For the people behind, there should be no harm, so everyone is willing to follow forward.
Go and see the feat of slaying the dragon.
Walk along the river bank to a water mooring. The terrain here is low-lying, and the river water converges into a lake more than ten miles in size. The dragon is now hiding here.
Deng Jiugong ordered his generals to lead his soldiers to form a formation. After forming the formation, he discussed it with the strangers who had been summoned, and then sent his general Tai Luan forward to call for formation.
Tai Luan, wearing a golden helmet and mail, holding a big sword in his hand, drove his black horse to the lake and shouted: "Listen to the dragon in the lake, you dare to raise the water and flood the villages on both sides of the river.
You dare to do this evil thing and coerce the people to sacrifice boys and girls to you. It is really an unforgivable crime. Now that I, the commander-in-chief of Sanshan Pass, have arrived with a large army, why don't you come out and die soon?"
Before Tai Luan could finish his words, he heard a dull roar suddenly coming from the lake. The lake water exploded, water splashed everywhere, and a dragon emerged from the depths of the lake and suddenly pounced on Tai Luan.
They saw that this dragon was more than ten feet long, with blue scales the size of a bowl all over its body. It had a single horn on its head, claws on its belly, its eyes were like lightning, and the sharp teeth in its mouth were like short blades, flashing with a fierce force.
Cold light.
Seeing the dragon coming, Tailuan's horse was frightened, hissed loudly, and turned around to run away.
Tai Luan was brave by nature. He cursed angrily when he saw this, but he was not afraid at all. He put his feet on the horse's back, jumped several feet high, avoided the dragon's frontal attack, and struck it with a knife.
"boom……"
With a soft sound, Tai Luan slashed at Jiaolong's back with his sword. He felt that the place where the sword struck was hard and tough, and as Jiaolong's body swung, most of the force of his sword was removed, although he could barely open it.
There was some blood on the scales on the dragon's back, but compared to the dragon's huge body, it was no different than being pricked by a needle.
Before Tai Luan could get upset, the dragon flicked its long tail and flew Tai Luan out of the air, with nowhere to rely on.
Deng Jiugong, who was not far away, was shocked when he saw that Tai Luan was repelled by a single move. Seeing that the dragon was about to pounce on him and kill Tai Luan, he hurriedly ordered his troops to fire arrows.
Immediately, dense rain of arrows flew towards the dragon. With the dragon's size, there was no need to worry about inaccurate shots.
Densely packed arrows hit the dragon. Before everyone could rejoice, they saw countless arrows falling to the ground. Except for the arrows shot by a few fierce generals in the army, ordinary soldiers were unable to shoot through the scales on the dragon's body.
.
Although Tai Luan on the side was swept away by the dragon, he was not seriously injured. After rolling on the ground a few times to relieve his strength, he only vomited blood and got up.
Deng Jiugong saw that his injury was not too serious, so he felt relieved and personally led several of his generals to attack Jiaolong.
Qi Yuan followed the crowd and watched from a distance, and saw that most of the strange people who were summoned used various methods to besiege Jiaolong. Most of them used magical weapons to assist the generals in close combat from a distance, while those who did not have magical weapons
Use various spells.
The old entertainer and his two sons were also working hard to attack the dragon with flames, but the power was not satisfactory. No matter the magic weapon or the spell, it was like scratching the surface. It was difficult to bring too much power to the dragon with tough scales.
The great damage was not as great as the damage caused by Deng Jiugong and other generals to Jiaolong.
Gradually, Qi Yuan discovered some clues. Although Deng Jiugong and others were fighting fiercely with the dragon, they were gradually leading the dragon ashore and gradually leaving the water's edge.
Jiaolong was obviously not stupid. Although he was roared by everyone's attacks, he didn't injure a few people. Instead, he was beaten into a bit of a mess. Although it was difficult to kill him according to the current combat power of the opponents.
But it doesn't want to be beaten like this.
Therefore, the dragon suddenly opened its mouth, mobilized the vitality in its body and sprayed out a stream of water. It was so cold that one general was unable to dodge and was hit by the stream of water. He was instantly frozen into a human-shaped ice sculpture.
Everyone was shocked and hid quickly.
After Jiaolong saw that he had forced his opponent back, he planned to retreat into the lake.
Its combat power will be greatly improved in the water, but not these humans. If these people dare to go into the water, it won't mind eating a few snacks.
Seeing that the dragon was about to retreat, Deng Chanyu, who had not made any move at the rear, suddenly gave a loud shout and waved his hand to shoot out a five-color stream of light. It was extremely fast, and then there was a bang, and the dragon's face blossomed, but it was hit by a five-color stone on the face, and it was instantly scaled.
The armor was broken and blood flowed.
The severe pain made the dragon roar, and the anger in his heart rose. He swung his long tail and rushed towards Deng Chanyu.
It wants to swallow up this human being who dares to bring it such pain.
The other generals hurriedly stepped forward to stop the dragon figure, how dare they let Deng Chanyu face such an evil dragon alone.
However, one of the generals did not catch up with the dragon immediately after he left. Instead, he leaned over to pick up the two pieces of blood-stained scales that had fallen to the ground when the dragon was injured, and turned to face the dragon far away.
The witch, protected by many soldiers, flew away.
After the witch took it, she placed one of the scales in a handful of withered grass, fiddled with it a few times with her hands, and then tied it into the shape of a dragon. Although the shape didn't quite look like it, for some reason, it looked like it.
.
Then the witch stretched out her hand to dip her hands into the blood on another piece of scale armor, and drew several strange incantations on the dragon made of withered grass, as if ghostly drawing talismans, and placed it on the simple altar made of earth by the soldiers, and paid her respects.
After praying three times, he muttered some words and danced with great joy.
Qi Yuan was too far away and could only watch from a distance. After a moment, the old witch suddenly opened her mouth and spit out a stream of black gas, which was sprayed directly on the dragon made of withered grass. It suddenly burst into flames.
Oily flames.
At the moment when the fire started, the dragon in the distance who was fighting bravely with everyone suddenly let out a wail, softened and fell to the ground.
