The Iron Guard, who had been wounded and killed in battle last night, returned to the inn headquarters one after another from all over Kyushu early this morning. The old city of Emperor Hill has gained some popularity for a long time.

In order to prevent the returning iron guards from disturbing the ordinary people nearby, after noon, Win personally led a group of iron guards to set up a phantom array within a hundred years.

When Ouyang and Li Dazhuang followed the car to the Yellow River, they saw a huge stone standing there, the stone wall was like the surface of the water, accompanied by people entering and leaving, and the ripples were constantly rippling on it.

Ouyang and the others also entered from the boulder, and at the small pavilion at the entrance, they saw the whole thing that was busy commanding the iron guards. Ouyang greeted the current manager of the inn, and was about to ask him about business, but he waved his hand impatiently and drove him away. Ouyang had no choice but to take Li Dazhuang City to find the three ancient witch seniors.

Li Dazhuang looked at the bustling city, where people kept coming from villages in all directions, men, women and children, all of whom were family members of the guards.

The expressions on their faces were either sad and angry, or sad, or numb, or they knew that their hearts had already turned upside down, but they still held on, tears swirling in their eyes, and they gritted their teeth to prevent it from falling.

The bodies of the guards and those killed in battle were sent back to the town, and their families rushed forward to claim them.

These people in the inn are just ordinary people, and they are the same as people from the outside world, some are brave and some are timid, some are strong and some are fragile inside.

Children who have the talent to learn witchcraft will be envied by those around them, because they have the opportunity to dedicate their power and have the ability to carry out the tasks entrusted to them by their ancestors. All the descendants of the Wi clan are proud of this.

The people who can be the Iron Guard are extremely loved and respected by everyone, and now, the person they respect the most has given his life in this mission. The people of the inn have come here to welcome their heroes home.

Wu Xu also stood on the highest wooden building in the town, looking down at the corpse transport team and the weeping weeping people from a distance, his wrinkled old face full of remorse. Why didn't he realize the seriousness of this matter earlier, if he had personally commanded it, he might not have to pay such a painful price.

He had not made a big splash in the Lich Clan for many years, and he was tired of thousands of years of observance. He was extremely relieved when he handed over all the affairs of the inn to Win two hundred years ago, but now, he had to correct his mentality.

Among the iron guards dispatched this time, no one was lost at the Tianzi level, no more than ten people were lost at the ground level, one-third of the Xuanzi-level iron guards were lost, and nearly half of the yellow-level iron guards were killed or wounded.

There were more than 300 corpses back at the inn, which meant that more than 300 sons, more than 300 elder brothers, more than 300 younger brothers, and more than 300 general horn brothers were gone, leaving only more than 300 corpses that did not breathe.

Wu Xu's eyes were red, and he stood alone on the highest place, surprisingly feeling that the breeze was a biting chill, but there was a fire in his heart that was about to burst open.

Huang Fu Yi, the strongest martial artist today, and also a twilight old man with white hair, stood on the city tower and sighed repeatedly. The middle-aged man who had been hammering the tree stood beside him, looking at the corpses of the dead guards from a distance, lying on the city wall and crying loudly.

Huang Fu Yi shook his head, turned around and walked back to the courtyard of the city, the middle-aged man spit out a mouthful of thick phlegm, blew off a large lump of snot, and shouted at Huang Fu Yi's back with blurred tears in his eyes: "Bastard old man!

Huangfu Yi was silent, still silent, and his feet did not stop.

"Bad seeds! It's always like this!" The middle-aged man was furious, rushed over directly, and punched the old man in the back: "Wushuang!"

Huangfu Yi frowned, waved out his sleeves that were bulging with internal force with his backhand, stopped the middle-aged man's punch, and then flirted with him, knocking the middle-aged man to the ground. Then, at the same pace as before, continue walking.

The middle-aged man beat his chest on the ground, grabbed the ground with his head, and kept shouting and scolding with a cry, but Huangfu Yi ignored it and left directly.

At night, the fire is lit. Not only this small city, but all the tribal villages were lit up by firelight. No one slept that night, only the dead warriors, who lay peacefully by the campfire.

In the courtyard of the inn, a few white paper lanterns are hung on the edge of the cloister, which dimly illuminates the place. The middle-aged man was hammering the tree again, and the fish in the water were so startled that they swam away. Huang Fuyi hadn't fallen asleep yet, he stood aside and quietly looked at the back of the middle-aged man.

Wu Xu sat in front of the chessboard in the small pavilion, and Ouyang saluted him before sitting down opposite him, and raised the question of last night's battle: when did the Lich and the Nightfish start joining forces, how close their cooperation was, and what action they were most likely to carry out next.

But Wu Xu's answer surprised him a little.

"It's a shame about that. I just heard about this big deal this morning. Wu Xu sighed.

"How come?" Ouyang looked incredulous, and he said, "The inn's power is all over Kyushu, how could it be so late?"

"The guards of the inn have no problem. Wu Xu was ashamed and said: "It's my three old guys who are confused." He continued, "Two hundred years ago, I handed over all the management of the inn to Winner. He's been doing a great job since he took over, and I'm completely relieved about him. A few days ago, he came to me to ask for advice about the detection of the Lich's movements, and I thought that the Lich had not caused a major disturbance in the past 400 years, and that some occasional activities were only minor fights, and that ordinary methods could be dealt with. I didn't expect that my negligence would lead to a big mistake. ”

Ouyang nodded, he only then knew about the change of manager within the inn.

Wu Xu reassured him again: "Fortunately, a guest came this morning, and he happened to witness the Lich Clan's Protector Wu Yan and the Nightfish Clan's secret merchant in the Nightfish Lair, and we already know the content and have made countermeasures. ”

"The strength of the Nightmares, far inferior to the Inn and the Lich, should be dealt with first to prevent the successful alliance with the Lich Clan in the future. Ouyang said eagerly.

"Don't worry, the second and third masters have already done this. Seeing that he was so excited, Wu Xu comforted him.

"That's good. Ouyang was relieved when he heard that it was two ancient witches who were dispatched at the same time. "This guest who brought the news is really timely, I don't know which one of the colleagues it is?"

Speaking of this, Wu Xu was ashamed again, he was embarrassed to say more, and only said concisely: "It's Mr. Moge from Rehe." ”

"That Moge who once single-handedly stopped the Dongying Mobile Force and fought to the death against the three major Onmyoji?" Ouyang Qi said in surprise.

"It's him. ”

Ouyang Qi continued: "I heard that he was hunted down by the inn, how could he go to the Nightfish Lair and hear such a secret thing?"

Wu Xu relayed the black cat's words briefly and clearly, and Ouyang Qi fell into deep thought when he heard that the black cat had gone to the night's lair with a four-hundred-year-old night watchman named Xu Guan.

"What about this Xu Guan? The night watchman four hundred years ago?"

"Xu Guan, the word is broad. Hebei Shunde people, the Ming Dynasty Wanli years to participate in the imperial examination to the same Jinshi origin, in the same year was elected as the successor of the night watch, seven years later the attack case set off a storm, Kyushu almost all the night members were swept in. Xu Guan fought to the death with the Lich Clan's protector Wu Li and the four Great Witches in that melee, and was seriously injured and disappeared. Missing along with him was the Night's Watch token Jade Pendant. "The reason why Wu Xu knows so clearly is because after the inn noticed that the night watchman was missing, he vigorously investigated. He also surrounded the few lichs who snatched the jade pendant from Chengfeng Zhenren in the imperial capital, and in order to save their lives, those lichs threw the jade pendant into the lock dragon well and managed to get out and go.

"He is alone, beating one ancient witch and four great witches?" Ouyang was so shocked that his mouth grew up.

"That's right. ”

Ouyang frowned solemnly, groping his chin and wondering if he could at least compete with the two great witches if he fought with his life. As soon as this thought arose, I shook my head secretly, I'm afraid it's difficult.

Wu Xu seemed to see through what he was thinking, his long beard was long, and he said with relief: "Xu Guan and his former night watchmen have practiced a complete Qiankun Technique, and its power is more than twice as strong as that of a single volume of Kun Character Formula, not to mention that there is also a jade pendant that can assist him in mobilizing the power of heaven and earth in a small area. It is normal that there are so many differences in strength. ”

Ouyang muttered in a low voice, "No, I also have to learn the full set." He raised his head and asked Wu Xu, "Do you have a dry character trick here?"

Wu Xu shook his head: "No." Even this only volume of Kun Zi Jue was left with me by the night watchman a thousand years ago as a precaution, and the Qiankun Jue is unique and extremely precious, and has not been easily opened in my inn for six hundred years. ”

"In this way, wouldn't this Xu Guan become the only book of the complete version of Qiankun Jue?"

"Think so. ”

"Then shall I go to him and let him teach me?"

"Then you have to ask him if he is willing to teach. Wu Xu said that he could not help much.

Ouyang nodded, and he understood in his heart. The two were silent for a while, and Ouyang asked again: "There was such a big mess last night, and almost the entire human city in Kyushu was included. Now the existence of lichs and nightmares may not be able to hide from the common people. ”

Wu Xu pondered for a moment, remembering the report he had received in the afternoon: "According to reliable information in the inn, only the cities in Kyushu where the nightmares live have been noisy, and the Lich Clan has only played some role in helping in these cities. Most other cities were not affected. ”

Ouyang felt a lot more relieved when he heard him say this, because of the location of the lair, the members of the night rays were basically in the northeast and north China, so it seemed that the situation was still under control.

Wu Xu continued: "In all dynasties, there have always been some high-level human beings who know about our existence. This part of the people is the key to the coexistence of our night world and the human world, and Win has already sent someone to communicate with them, and will always negotiate a suitable statement to convince the general public and eliminate the suspicion and fear in their hearts. ”

"Hmm. That's good. Ouyang knew that in order to facilitate the Nightfish Clan to eat human blood without being discovered by the general public, the human high-level had worked with the inn to come up with the idea of building an institution such as a blood donation station. This time, I hope that we can also hide it, otherwise this society will collapse.
