Chapter 72: Three Days of Horror (13)
Yun Tianhe couldn't react for a while, frowned slightly, and asked, "Is there a difference?"
"Yes! If Zhang San and Li Si arrived first, but died in the end, it means that the strength of this 'man of destiny' is indeed not weak. But if Wu Yan arrived first, it was very likely that Zhang San and Li Si would have been dragged to death by Wu Yan. Ren Hengzhi replied.
"Are you saying that Wu Yan is so controlled by others that he can't carry out the black and white murders? No, with the consistent style of the black and white murderers, this kind of good deed of sacrificing oneself for others cannot be done. Murong Chong wondered.
"Naturally not!" Ren Hengzhi shook his head and replied.
"Brother Ren, what do you think, but it doesn't matter. Yun Tianhe said impatiently.
"Alas...... In that case, I'll just say it bluntly! Grand Elder Utu gave Wu Yan a lot of life-saving things when he set off. Ren Hengzhi said.
"What is it?" Yun Tianhe asked.
"In addition to some regular pills, Wu Yan was also given a lot of talismans. Ren Hengzhi replied.
"Fu Seal, what is this?" Murong Chong is a child of the family, and Fu Seal, a scarce material in the eyes of ordinary disciples, is nothing to him.
"That's not an ordinary talisman! Ren Hengzhi said it at this time.
"How many?"
"Is that true?"
Yun Tianhe and Murong Chong's two sentences came out almost at the same time, Yun Tianhe couldn't see his joy and anger with a solemn face, but Murong Chong could be described as ecstatic.
Although Ren Hengzhi said that he was determined to betray Utu, he didn't want Ximenjing to make trouble as soon as he returned, if that was the case, everyone would definitely think that he had done it. Even if Ximenjing wins in the end, his reputation will be ruined, even if he can rely on Ximenjing at that time, but Ximenjing, as the head, it is impossible to use a notorious person on the surface, after all, it is not the head of the Kunlun domain who has the final say, as for those secret things behind the scenes, how can Ximenjing use a renegade?
Although it is said that cultivators are not stained with red dust and are bent on pursuing the growth of strength, if the mundane things in the red dust directly affect the distribution of resources, then even if a cultivator wants to transcend things, how easy is it to talk about it? After all, without resources, cultivation is all nonsense!
Therefore, Ren Hengzhi is reluctant to say that Utu Xiu is a big loss at this time, if he can delay for a while, wait until this time Wu Yan's death subsides, Ximenjing will launch again, even if some people speculate about Ren Hengzhi, but this speculation is only in the category of rumors, and at that time, with the power in his own hands, it will not take much effort to quell this rumor.
However, Yun Tianhe and Murong Chong had different ideas, Grand Elder Utu did not hesitate to sacrifice his own cultivation for the sake of his son, such a thing was undoubtedly a great opportunity for the head of Ximenjing! Coupled with the things that Ren Hengzhi offered, Ximenjing was very sure of defeating and even killing Utu in one fell swoop.
Yun Tianhe cared about the number of those talismans in Wu Yan's hands, because this directly indicated how much cultivation the Great Elder Wutu had lost this time. Murong Chong, on the other hand, was more concerned about the authenticity of this news, the family must always be absolutely sure before making a move! The focus of the two seems to be different, but the purpose is the same.
"Alas......" Ren Heng sighed in his heart, Yun Tianhe and Murong Chong were really moved!
"A lot! The specific number is not clear, but there are a lot of 'Ding Jia Talismans', 'Divine Walking Talismans', and 'Fire Feather Talismans'!"
"Hehe, the attack, the defense, and the escape are all here!
"I understand!" As soon as Yun Tianhe heard Ren Hengzhi finish speaking, he reacted and said, "You mean, if Wu Yan arrived earlier than Zhang San and Li Si, it is very likely that all these things on his body will fall into the hands of that 'man of destiny', and then he will use them against Zhang San and Li Si." ”
If this is the case, most of Zhang San and Li Si's deaths were dragged down by Wu Yan. Ren Hengzhi said.
"This ......" Yun Tianhe is actually willing to agree with this speculation deep down, after all, the "man of destiny" is mysterious, but in fact he is just a savage in a wild land, it is not easy to kill a few of their fellow disciples by tricks, if you want to say that this "man of destiny" really has the power to compete with them, Yun Tianhe still doesn't want to believe it, but he is cautious by nature and is still ready to check it out first: "Otherwise!" Let's check it out first, after all, these are Brother Ren's speculations now, and what the facts are, it is impossible to determine if you don't take a look. ”
Ren Hengzhi also agreed with Yun Tianhe's decision, nodded and said, "Senior Brother Yun's words are good!"
After talking about business, Xiao Er's dishes were also served, and the three of them began to chat about what they had seen and heard on the road, and the atmosphere seemed very relaxed, as if they were not affected by the death of Zhang San and Li Si. Also, in the eyes of the three of them, since the three of them got together, it was impossible for anyone to bring danger to them if the Jindan master did not come out, and could the "man of destiny" have the strength of the Jindan master?
……
Just when Yun Tianhe was talking about wine on the third day, Xu Chen on Jubao Mountain looked at the few remaining talismans on the ground, but his mood really couldn't be relaxed.
"Big brother, how many things are left?" Lu Hao also squatted down and asked at Xu Chen.
"The others are okay, there are still nine fire attack talismans left, and there are still nine 'divine talismans' of that kind of acceleration, but there is only one 'Ding Armor Talisman' left for those defensive talismans!" Xu Chen grabbed the only remaining 'Ding Talisman' and frowned.
Ren Hengzhi was able to know the types of these runes because when Utu handed over these runes to Wu Yan that day, he was watching from the sidelines, and Utu also focused on these three kinds of runes, which was listened to by Ren Hengzhi. But the runes are all packed in a cloth bag, and it is impossible for Ren Hengzhi to use his divine sense to investigate in front of Utu, so Ren Hengzhi is not clear about how many runes are in the cloth bag, and whether there are other types of runes in the bag.
In fact, there are only three kinds of rune seals on Wu Yan's body, and there are only a dozen or twelve of each of them, after all, they are all made by Utu with Dan Qi, and the power and duration are much stronger than ordinary rune seals, not to mention the time-delay prohibition on the rune seal, which is something that only a master of the Jindan period can set up.
It is precisely because it is precious that it is scarce, and there are only thirty-six of them on Wu Yan's body!
But in the last battle, Xu Chen used a full fourteen cards, plus the three cards that each of them spent before, Xu Chen has now used seventeen cards!
Although he defeated the opponent almost unscathed, and won very happily, he used nearly half of the talismans, and more importantly, the most effective defensive talismans were almost exhausted, and only this one was left.
"Alas...... If only these two guys weren't so shrewd!" Xu Chen sighed. After easily taking down Wu Yan, the traps that Xu Chen had arranged in advance were almost useless, so Xu Chen naturally wouldn't waste these arrangements, so he continued to set up sets according to the original arrangement.
Who knew that the two of them who came back this time were so shrewd, and they could see Xu Chen's arrangement almost at a glance, so that Xu Chen had to give up the original preparation and directly fight with the newly obtained talisman seal.
Fighting against these powerful opponents, Xu Chen's weak bodies could not stop the opponent's sharp flying sword, in order to prevent the tragedy of the battle against Senior Brother Ma from repeating, Xu Chen fortunately equipped everyone with a defensive talisman.
"There's no way around it, it's impossible to go back and let us meet two hundred and five, and there are a lot of experienced people among those who came. Lu Hao said.
"yes! The next battle will get tougher and harder. Alas...... If they come a little later, it will be much easier to deal with them when I make new weapons!"
Thinking of guns and artillery, Xu Chen was entangled for a while! Originally, after he knew the level of steelmaking in this era, Xu Chen had always hoped to build these hot weapons. However, when he was in Yuzhang, he was busy making money, and secondly, he was in the territory of Wanjia, and Xu Chen was not sure that he would hide the eyes and ears of Wanjia in Yuzhang City, after all, the movement of fire, guns, and artillery was too big! And after coming to Shengzhou, he had to handle a lot of infrastructure construction, after all, it was impossible to build hot weapons out of thin air, and some supporting facilities must always be fully equipped. But this dragged on, and mysterious people came one after another, completely interrupting Xu Chen's plan.
"What new weapon? is it what you asked Lin Jin and them to tinker with?" Lu Hao on the side asked curiously. Lu Hao also knew a little about the new weapon in Xu Chen's mouth, but the specific work Xu Chen was directly handed over to his craftsmen, and Lu Hao didn't care much, this time he heard that Xu Chen actually mentioned the importance of this new weapon to the point where it could compete with the mysterious person, Lu Hao was naturally very curious.
Not only Lu Hao was curious, but Yun Tianhe, who was the person concerned, was also curious, so he who had already sneaked behind Xu Chen incognito, and asked curiously: "What new weapon?"
Yun Tianhe's voice was very soft, but it sounded like thunder in the ears of Xu Chen and Lu Hao!
"!"
Almost at the moment when Yun Tianhe's voice sounded, Xu Chen and Lu Hao, who were squatting on the ground, hurriedly lowered their bodies and quickly rolled to both sides!
Xu Chen reacted quickly and moved faster, he saw the direction when he rolled, and just rolled out less than a zhang away, he stretched out his hand and slapped it a grass with broken leaves!
Where Yun Tianhe stood, a deep pit appeared out of thin air!
Xu Chen didn't see the enemy, and Yun Tianhe didn't unlock the invisibility talisman on his body, but Xu Chen clearly heard the voice coming from behind him, and that was enough!
The place where Xu Chen and Lu Hao were squatting just now was under the big tree, and there was the girl Ling'er lying on the side, and this position was also where the trap Xu Chen had prepared early in the morning was located!
But how can such a clumsy trap be difficult to live in Yuntianhe?
Although this pit was still filled with sand and stones by Xu Chen, when the trap was opened, these sand and stones were also falling deeper.
But this time, Yun Tianhe, who had been prepared for a long time, was not comparable to Senior Brother Ma, who was at the end of the road!
When the trap appeared, Yun Tianhe was also slightly startled, but in an instant, it was a vacancy technique, although the pit was there, but Yun Tianhe was floating steadily on the pit.
Until this time, Xu Chen and Lu Hao still didn't see Yun Tianhe......
