Chapter 146: Infiltrating Demon Flame City
The next day, the Earth Driller, the Hunter Demon, the Elephant Demon, and the Crazy Knife Demon each led their troops to find the plane rift, while the Ice Wolf left the station alone and headed in the direction of Demon Flame City.
After traveling for several days, along the way, I saw the army of the Phantom Demon appearing from time to time on the way from Demon Flame City to Wuthering Heights, obviously after Gu Jian led the army to retreat, the Phantom Demon quickly dispatched troops to reoccupy the area of Wuthering Mountain, and the ice wolf had the intention to kill the enemy and had no choice but to be alone, so he had to dispel his thoughts and avoid the enemy army and rushed to the outside of Demon Flame City without stopping.
Standing outside the city, the ice wolf couldn't help but be surprised by the majestic and magnificent momentum of the Demon Flame City, only to see a city wall more than ten zhang high standing in front of him, inside the city wall is an endless vast city, can only be spied through some giant buildings higher than the city wall to spy on the information of the city's scales and half claws, at this time under the huge city gate is a team of demon monsters on duty, they from time to time to look at the crowd in and out, to the suspicious people are barbaric means, at the same time on the wide city wall there are also a group of soldiers with weapons to patrol back and forth.
Seeing this, the ice wolf knew that if he broke in, he would cause trouble, so he had to hide far away and think about how to sneak into the city. Just as he was searching for dry intestines, suddenly there was a noise of carriages and horses in his ears, he looked closely, and saw dozens of civilians carrying more than a dozen carts full of minerals not far away.
When the cart slowly passed by, he sneaked into the crowd while no one was looking. The procession of dozens of people slowly headed towards the city gate, and the demon guarding knew that they were acting on orders, so they let them go without checking it, and the ice wolf entered the demon flame city smoothly.
Let's say that the phantom and Gu Jian were in a happy mood after agreeing to make peace, on this day, he was discussing with his subordinates in the main hall, and the phantom demon said with a relaxed expression: "Gu Jian's house is still a good acquaintance, and he really led the troops to retreat to the foot of Chijiao Mountain, so that we can sit back and relax, and the big stone in the king's heart has finally fallen." I wonder what Gu Jian's actions have been in the near future?"
The ice dragon took a step forward and said, "Back to the king, the secret agents sent by his subordinates reported that Gu Jian recently sent his subordinates to search around in the Demon Domain, and it is very likely that they are heading towards the rift in the plane. ”
The phantom demon was overjoyed and said: "This is very good, if he puts his mind on finding the plane rift, then it seems that he doesn't want to entangle with this king anymore, and it is really gratifying that I have one less strong enemy." ”
Ice Dragon said: "King, recently, many demons in the Demon Domain have tried to escape from the Demon Domain and go to the Ten Thousand Dust Continent to share a piece of the pie with humans and beasts, I wonder if the King has such a plan?"
The phantom demon snorted coldly: "This group of insatiable guys, this king doesn't want to fight with them for a bloody battle, you and arrange for your subordinates to secretly monitor, this king first sits on the mountain and watches the tiger fight, and when they fight and lose both, then this king will strike hard and reap the benefits of the fisherman, isn't it beautiful." ”
Bing Long said: "The king is wise, and his subordinates are ashamed of themselves. ”
The phantom demon laughed and said: "Gu Jian thought that there were some methods, so he didn't know the height of the sky, and he didn't want to think that when this king was in the Demon Domain, his kid was not born yet." The ministers below also laughed.
The illusion continued: "Five days later is the period of worshipping the heavens, I wonder if the national teacher can arrange the preparations properly?" The demon eye demon took a step forward and said: "Back to the king, his subordinates have sent someone to block the altar in the suburbs, no one is allowed to trespass, and other work is also in full swing, the king can rest assured, his subordinates will definitely make the ceremony of worshipping the heavens foolproof." ”
The illusion said: "Okay, then there is full authority for Lao Guoshi, today's council is over, and the Aiqing will disperse." As he spoke, he got up and walked towards the apse, and the ministers below also walked towards the outside of the hall.
The Demon Eye Demon walked to the side of the ice dragon and said: "Ice Dragon Commander, the king and the ministers of the Heaven Sacrifice Ceremony in five days must participate, there must be no mistakes in the process, I don't know how many soldiers and horses the commander will send to escort it?"
Bing Long said: "The national teacher can rest assured, this commander will send three thousand guards to take charge of the escort work this time, these sergeants are all fierce generals in a hundred, and the national teacher can put a hundred hearts." ”
The demon eye demon said: "This is very good, with the Ice Dragon Commander personally taking care of it, the old man really has nothing to worry about." Saying that, the two talked and laughed all the way, and the wind gradually drifted apart.
Moreover, it has been a few days since the ice dragon entered the Demon Flame City, and in the past few days, he has walked around the streets around the Demon Palace, only to see that there are heavily guarded guards everywhere, guarding the huge palace like an iron bucket, and there is no possibility for the ice wolf to be mixed into it. The ice wolf had no choice but to temporarily find an inn nearby to stay, and while searching for news in the palace, he was looking for opportunities to take advantage of.
On this day, he was drinking in a tavern outside the palace, and he was in a restless mood while observing the situation in front of the palace gate from time to time. Suddenly, the gate of the palace slowly opened, and then two demon monsters in uniform came out of it, and the two walked and chatted towards the outside of the palace, one of the tall monsters said: "The day after tomorrow is the day of the sacrifice ceremony, the principal asked us to go to the winery on Beixing Street to inspect the preparation of the wine required for the sacrifice, and when you get to the winery, don't wander around, if you miss the matter, the principal will be punished, you and I can't afford it." ”
Another short monster with a slightly green face smiled and said, "Brother Ghost Power, you are too mother-in-law, are you still worried that I won't be able to handle such a small thing, not to mention that you are watching from the side." ”
The tall monster said: "You have to be careful everywhere for the royal family, and you can't have half a point, I'm just reminding you." The short monster said, "Got it, thank you big brother for reminding me." Saying that, the two gradually moved away in the direction of Beixing Street.
This conversation between the two of them has already been heard clearly by the ice wolf, who has a "heart", and the ice wolf, who was worried about having no chance to find it, was swept away by his depressed mood after hearing it, and he secretly said in his heart: "God help me, it seems that the illusion demon is about to hold a ceremony to worship the sky, this is a rare opportunity." As he spoke, he followed the two monsters from a distance.
The two monsters didn't expect to be followed, so they didn't notice it at all. They came to the winery where the wine needed for the ritual was stored according to the plan, and the person in charge of the winery, an obese monster, stepped forward and said, "Two adults, please come with me, all the wine for the ritual is stored in the cellar." As he spoke, he led the two monsters around the winery and walked into a huge underground wine cellar, only to see dozens of barrels of fine wine neatly placed in the huge wine cellar.
The tall monster said: "Lord Gallo, we have come to inspect the preparations for the wine ceremony of the day after tomorrow on the order of the Lord Lord, you have always hosted this matter, I don't need to say more about the specific matters, right?"
Gallo said: "Your Excellency, rest assured, the fifty barrels of fine wine requested by the Lord in charge have been prepared according to his instructions, of which ten barrels are excellent for the king and concubines to drink, the other twenty barrels of the best are for the ministers and generals to drink, and the remaining twenty barrels of medium barrels are for the adults in charge of the affairs. ”
Ghost Li said: "This is very good, then we will go back to the Lord in charge to explain that everything is ready, presumably someone will come early tomorrow morning to transport the wine into the palace, and I am afraid that the owner of Garo Village will have to worry a lot about it." ”
Gallo said: "Why do you say this, you can serve the king without giving up, not to mention that this is a matter of duty, and you can't talk about bothering and not bothering." ”
Ghost Li said: "The owner of Gallo Village is admirable, no wonder he is very valued by the master. Now that the owner has made arrangements, it is inconvenient for us to disturb more, and there are still many things to do in the palace. As he walked towards the outside of the cellar, Gallo led the way, "I'll send the two of you out." As he spoke, he walked in front of the two and led the way.
At this time, the ice wolf who followed him used his magic power to listen to the conversation of the three of them word for word, and he bent down to hide on the roof of the wine cellar and said secretly: "It seems that someone will come here tomorrow to transport wine into the palace, and there may be a chance to fish in the water and sneak into the palace at that time." Secretly happy in his heart, after making up his mind, he unfolded his body and left the winery.
