Chapter 773: Danger lurks
There are only a few pillars left, supporting the huge mine mountain and preventing it from collapsing.
And in the empty belly of the mountain, a rather spectacular scene came into view.
Nine majestic stone dragons, each occupying a direction, are surrounded by a huge stone ball in the form of nine dragon arch beads.
Miao Yin, Fang Cuihong and the others were amazed, they couldn't believe what they saw.
Xia Qingchen flashed over, looked carefully, and then stretched out his hand and said, "Give me the shovel." ”
Miao Yin hesitated and handed him the shovel, who stepped forward and gently shoveled the surface of the stone ball.
As a result, the stone ball only has a layer of lime on the surface, but it is a turquoise ball inside.
Inside the ball, an ancient purple brand the size of a palm floated.
Its material is neither gold nor wood, with both wood texture and metallic luster, and it emits a faint fluorescence all over its body.
Between the purple cards tumbling, it can be seen that the card is carved with a chilling word demon!
The word "magic" is written in ancient Chinese characters, and the font is strange and hideous, as if it is really written like a demon.
Seeing this word, Miao Yin and the others, who were still excited, all had a sense of foreboding.
"My lord, what is this?" Fang Cuihong covered her chest, a little uneasy.
Xia Qingchen stared at the purple card and said, "All retreat, don't be within ten zhang of this card, otherwise your mind will be affected." ”
Even he stood ten feet away, not daring to approach.
Moreover, the gaze is very solemn.
"Who's hand is so big that he can get the token of the Demon Monarch. Xia Qingchen muttered.
The so-called Demon Monarch Marquis was one of the top ten Demon Venerables of the year.
Although his strength is not as good as the first Demon Venerable, his strength is not weak, Xia Qingchen chased him for a day before he was beheaded by the sword.
This purple token is the personal token of the Demon Monarch.
The Demon Monarch has been extinct for thousands of years, and his token has long lost its divinity and has become a mortal, but even so, it still has the power to destroy the mortal world.
Some people actually used it as the driving force for the Nine Dragons to ascend to heaven, in a vain attempt to send the Nine Dragons to heaven and kill the gods.
"This formation is not suitable to stay in the world. Xia Qingchen reiterated once.
From his point of view, this array will not only fail to ascend to heaven, but will destroy the earth.
When the time comes, the remaining terrifying power in the Demon Monarch Hou Token will not hurt a single hair of the gods, but will cause the living beings to suffer.
"Find gunpowder and arrange it near the Nine Dragons Soul Locking Array. Xia Qingchen immediately ordered.
The Yunlan Warband immediately drew a large amount of gunpowder from the cottage and hoarded it in the mountainside of the entire mine to fill it.
Once ignited, Mo said that the Nine Dragons Soul Locking Array would be destroyed by bombardment in an instant, and even the mines would be trampled down.
Seeing this scene, Miao Yin was worried, if Xia Qingchen had the intention to blow up the mine, the hundreds of thousands of troops in the Zhongyun Realm above would definitely die here, and it would be difficult for one to live.
It's a pity that she was controlled by Xia Qingchen and lost her personal freedom, so she couldn't notify them at all.
Fortunately, Xia Qingchen had no intention of destroying it immediately.
"Seal the entrance, sweep the traces, block the news, and never let the news leak. Xia Qingchen stared at Miaoyin.
The Yunlan Warband are all his henchmen and worthy of trust, but Miaoyin is not.
was looked at by Xia Qingchen, and Miaoyin's idea of secretly transmitting the message was immediately annihilated.
I'm afraid that once the news leaks, no matter who spreads it, the first person he wants to deal with is her.
"Let's go!" Xia Qingchen led the army back to the camp, and it happened that Li Forestry had already reorganized the Yellow Character Heavenly Regiment.
Seeing the sassy battle shadow of the return of the Yunlan Battle Group, he said with deep meaning: "Lord Xia, Zhou Bendao Fufa, the position of the Yellow Character Heavenly Regiment is vacant, the opportunity is rare, you don't want to miss it." ”
The implication is to remind Xia Qingchen to go the way.
Any Wan Xiao cavalry under the current city protection legion has been occupied.
If there are no accidents, no one can be promoted to the new Wan Xiaoqi.
The Yellow Character Group is the best opportunity in recent years!
Xia Qingchen looked far away, shook his head slightly, and said, "Everything is subject to the commander's arrangement." ”
He didn't think that the commander would put the Yellow Character Heavenly Regiment in his hands.
There are all kinds of signs that the commander is trying to find a way to clear the wings of the Yu family in the city guard.
Whether it is the arrangement of Li Forestry and the Ninth Military Region, or the arrangement of Zhao Feimoth, who has a grudge against the Yu family, to become the quasi-commander.
seems to be an unintentional move, but in fact, they have quite a deep motive to deal with the Yu family.
Today, in the city protection legion, there is still a representative of the Yu family, Yu Guitian, who has not been expelled.
Let me ask, will the commander arrange for Xia Qingchen to stay away from the northwest military camp and arrive at the frontier?
The answer is no.
The commander must have hoped that Xia Qingchen would stay in the northwest military camp to restrain Yu Guitian, and if necessary, he could help him and get rid of Yu Guitian.
Therefore, even if he has great merit this time, he will definitely not be promoted to Wan Xiaoqi.
Unless Yu Guitian is imprisoned!
Xia Qingchen's eyes were as cold as the stars in the dark night: "Yu Guitian, you are in my way!"
He looked sideways and asked, "General Li, how has the Yu family's incriminating evidence been collected?"
Li Linlin's eyes flashed slightly, looked left and right, and said in a low voice: "I have obtained a lot of evidence from the mouths of the captives, but they are all human witnesses, not physical evidence. ”
There is only a confession and no physical evidence, and it is not difficult to know whether Yu Guitian can be convicted.
At this point, Xia Qingchen was not surprised.
Judging from Yu Guitian's style of acting, he likes to live deep behind the scenes, manipulating other people's actions without leaving a trace, and rarely leaves a real handle.
Li Forestry looked at Miaoyin again, and there was a hint of hope in his eyes: "If it can be found that this woman's identity is extremely high, then her evidence is very different." ”
The designation of an enemy high-level is naturally much more credible.
Even if Yu Guitian cannot be convicted of the crime, it is still possible to temporarily remove him from his post and wait for the investigation.
So, the sound is the most important thing.
"Let's go back first!" Xia Qingchen's eyes flashed slightly.
Both sides were also ready, and when there was nothing to do, they joined forces and set off together.
The 30,000-strong crossbow army and the more than 1,000 battle groups of the Yunlan War Regiment rolled up the earth-shattering smoke and dust and rushed towards Liangzhou City.
Half a month later.
100,000 miles outside the suburbs of Liangzhou City.
"Cross the river, and the day before is the military palace. As night fell, Li Forestry stood in front of the surging river, pointing ahead.
In view of the existence of Miaoyin, an important hostage, the armies of both sides along the way are very steady, and do not pursue speed, mainly focusing on prevention.
Now that they have arrived within the radiation range of Liangzhou City, the masters of the military palace can rush over in at most an hour, and it can be said that they are safe.
"Let's rush back to the barracks in one go. Li Forestry had the intention to do this, but he still asked Xia Qingchen what he meant.
On the battlefield, Xia Qingchen's meticulous observation was very appreciated by Li Linlin.
"When we think it's safest, it's often when it's most dangerous. Xia Qingchen was not arrogant or impatient: "I think tonight I will set up camp by the river, don't march in the dark." ”
In the dark, it is affected by the line of sight, and it is easy to be ambushed.
After weighing it for a while, he said: "Okay! I don't care if it's a day earlier, the whole army will be encamped by the river, and the waiting horses will be doubled, and the situation must be found out as far as a hundred miles away." ”
"Yes!"
Tens of thousands of troops stopped and set up camp in place.
Two hundred miles away, near an official road leading to the cool realm, there are ancient trees on both sides.
At this time, the dark clouds flowed away, revealing a bright moon, pouring a long afterglow on the earth.
Under the moonlight, suddenly, the dense forest refracted a cold light.
Only by looking closely can you see that it is the edge of a sharp blade, and thousands of people in black, lurking in the ancient forest.
