Chapter 289: Watching Chess
After the governor of Dongcheng of Xiling County finished hearing the case, it was only half an hour before the excerpt was handed to the school desk.
The school desk was already looking for traces of the "Demon Scout" everywhere, and now that there was a result, he naturally did not dare to slack off, and even did not hesitate to use the psychic formation to hand over the news to Xiao Che.
Xiao Che was furious after reading it.
In his opinion, those "ominous" who have passed the test of refining the heart bead and are guarding themselves in the territory of the Wu Dynasty are all his people.
But this demon scout forces good to do evil, and dares to kill wantonly in his territory!
Such rampant behavior, how could he, as a Martial Emperor, tolerate it?
After transmitting this information to Zhao Ting, Xiao Che secretly ordered the demon slayer army in Qingzhou to quickly assemble and enter the Qilian Mountains in a big way.
I'm afraid that the feminine man didn't expect it at this time, but he just killed a third-order fox demon casually, which actually caused him to be killed!
The other side.
Zhao Ting, who was still searching around Jinzhou for the traces of the "Demon Scout", suddenly stopped.
He glanced down at the psychic jade talisman in his hand, and a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes: "Qingzhou... Pretty fast!"
The words fell, and one turned and disappeared.
......
In the vast Qilian Mountains.
Thousands of majestic peaks are undulating, a green forest sea in the mountains is verdant, and the wind blows, rattling, and swaying like waves.
Chu Xiao, the former commander of the Demon Slayer Army, was standing on the side of a cliff on a mountain peak, looking down at the sea of clouds churning under his feet.
His lieutenant general, Lu Dayan, stood beside him and said respectfully: "General, Your Majesty ordered us to advance into the Qilian Mountain Range, form a siege, and help Mr. Zhao kill the demon scouts." But this demon scout is said to have a fifth-order strength, if he deliberately hides himself, how can we find him?"
Chu Xiao glanced back at Lu Dayan and said, "You don't have to worry about this, I have my own way." ”
After a pause, he took out a delicately designed white helmet from the box and said, "When I traveled this time, His Majesty specially let me enter the palace and have a secret conversation with me. ”
"Do you know what this thing is?"
Lu Dayan took the white helmet from his hand, shook his head with some curiosity, and said, "It looks like a helmet, dare to ask the general what this is...?"
"This is called the Holographic Light Tracking Helmet, and it is a treasure given to me by His Majesty. ”
Chu Xiao stretched out his hand and pressed it, and a clear picture on the white helmet was suddenly projected into the air.
In the center of the picture, a smart sika deer are jumping and running, full of vitality.
"This..." Lu Dayan reached out to touch it curiously, but touched an emptiness, and said, "This is a mirage?"
Chu Xiao shook his head and explained, "No, this is what is happening at the moment. This helmet is a treasure unearthed from the ancient ruins, and he can present anything you want to see in front of you in the form of holographic projections. ”
Lu Dayan looked confused when he heard this.
Chu Xiao also knew that he didn't understand, so he no longer reluctantly explained, and continued: "You just need to know that with this helmet, don't say that he is a fifth-order, even if he is a true god, he has to appear in front of you." ”
"So powerful?" Lu Dayan was a little incredulous.
Chu Xiao nodded and said, "As long as it is a living creature, no matter what kind of concealment means it is, it is useless." ”
Saying that, in order to prove his words, Chu Xiao put on a white helmet and meditated on the face of the feminine man of the demon clan in his heart.
The white helmet flashed red, and then, when the hologram in front of him changed, the image changed, projecting a black-robed man walking in the mountains and forests.
The man's eyes were cold, his appearance was feminine, and his body was wrapped in a black robe, which was the demon scout they were looking for.
At this time, the feminine man carried his hands behind his back and walked with a walk, and he crossed hundreds of zhang in one step, and the speed was very fast.
I don't realize that my every move has fallen into the eyes of others.
"Go and ask if there are any brothers in the army who are familiar with the terrain of the Qilian Mountains, and let him tell where this is. Chu Xiao commanded.
Lu Dayan took the order and left.
Moment.
He brought back a burly black-faced sergeant and said, "General, this kid said that he had been begging for a living all day in the periphery of the Qilian Mountains before joining the army, and he knew a little about the general terrain in the mountains. ”
Seeing Chu Xiao's gaze, the black-faced sergeant stepped forward and arched his hand: "General." ”
Chu Xiao nodded and said, "Han Qingyun, right?"
He remembered the name of the black-faced sergeant, who possessed a special supernatural ability.
Split.
Even if he was cut into two pieces with one sword, he would still be alive and well, and he would be able to split into two people to fight together.
As long as he doesn't annihilate his body in an instant, he is immortal.
Han Qingyun was a little flattered that Chu Xiao remembered his name, and said, "Yes, the last general is Han Qingyun." ”
Chu Xiao waved his hand, pointed to the holographic projection screen in front of him, and said, "Come and see, where is this person now?"
Han Qingyun leaned closer, watched carefully, and after a moment, he suddenly smiled and said: "General Hui, the end of this mountain will be recognized, and it is called Guanqi Mountain, and the two steep peaks in front of the mountain are like immortals playing against each other, so it is named." This mountain is located deep in the southern periphery of the Qilian Mountains, and is much higher than the other surrounding peaks, so it is instantly recognizable. ”
"Guanqi Mountain?"
Chu Xiao stared at the picture in front of him for a moment, saw that the feminine man's footsteps gradually stopped, nodded, and said, "Okay, I know, you can go." ”
"No. ”
After Han Qingyun left, Chu Xiao looked at Lu Dayan and said, "Pass the news to Mr. Zhao!" ”
"No!"
......
Guanqi Mountain.
In addition to the towering clouds, this mountain is ordinary and does not have any outstanding features, just because the two strange peaks in front of it are like immortals holding children, and the sea of clouds in the sky is used as a chessboard for the game, so it is named.
Because the mountain is rich in materials and is close to the Qingwu county town in the south of the Qilian Mountains, many mountain catchers love to come to this mountain to hunt for medicine on weekdays, but it is not desolate.
At this time, the top of the Guanqi Mountain stands majestically.
The feminine man stood with his hands in his hands, and the mountain wind stirred his robe.
"Finally found a big fish. ”
He glanced at the mountains under his feet, a sneer on the corner of his mouth, and stepped on it fiercely.
This kick contains more than ten thousand powers.
The entire Guanqi Mountain immediately rumbled and shook, the mountain collapsed and the ground cracked, and even the surrounding peaks were irrepressibly shaken.
Huge rocks fell from the top of the mountain, trees broke and collapsed, and countless snakes, insects and beasts died tragically directly, and in an instant, it was like the end of the world.
Only the feminine man standing on the top of the mountain is towering and motionless, and he is not affected by the shaking of the mountain at all.
Moment.
In front of the feminine man, a white-bearded old man in an earthy yellow robe suddenly appeared out of thin air and saluted him.
The white-bearded old man said neither humbly nor arrogantly: "If you want to force the old man to come out, why bother with these mountain spirits?"
The feminine man snorted disdainfully, and said, "A group of beasts with hair and blood drinking, what does it matter to me whether they live or die?"
"That's wrong," the white-bearded old man smiled slightly, and said, "The Heart Eater Demon Clan loves to devour other people's hearts the most, so how can it be said that the beast is a hairy blood-drinker?"
The subtext of this is that you are no different from a brute.
The feminine man also heard the mockery in the white-bearded old man's words, his face became a lot gloomy, and he asked, "How do you know the origin of this seat?"
"The blood in the Venerable Guest's body is too heavy. ”
The white-bearded old man shook his head and said with a smile: "I can't hide it." ”
Seeing that he refused to explain the reason, the feminine man didn't ask any more, but just snorted coldly and said, "There is something I want you to do, if it can be done, I will forgive you for the crime of disrespect..."
Before he finished speaking, the white-bearded old man interrupted with a smile and said, "The old man has not done anything wrong, there is no need for forgiveness from the honored guest, please leave." ”
The feminine man was furious!
None of his things went smoothly along the way, and even accepting a "unknown" as a subordinate was rejected one after another, and the anger in his heart had reached its highest point at this time.
"Didn't you rely on the cultivation of the late fourth order, so you thought that this seat would not dare to kill you?"
The feminine man's voice was low, and he almost gritted his teeth and shouted this sentence.
The white-bearded old man also had a solemn face, and said with a cold expression: "This is the human world, not the dojo of your Heart Eater Demon Clan. It's better to be careful when you speak, you need to know that there are people outside the world, and there is a sky outside the sky!"
The feminine man didn't say anything more, and directly slapped it out with anger.
The white-bearded old man stood in the wind, not afraid.
"Bang"!
A surging wave of air rolled back dozens of miles, the grass and trees were broken, and the birds were nowhere to be seen.
The feminine man looked shocked, and he took three steps back, only to feel a vast and continuous power coming from his palm, and he felt a feeling of facing the mountains and the sea.
On the other hand, the white-bearded old man only shook his body slightly, and he didn't even take half a step back.
"The old man cherishes fish, insects, plants and trees, and does not want to make a big move. If the honored guest is still obsessed, the old man can only be ruthless and bury the honored guest here. ”
The white-bearded old man squinted slightly, and his tone was calm, as if he was saying something insignificant.
Hearing that his tone was very serious, the anger in the feminine man's heart suddenly subsided a lot, and he secretly retreated.
Anger is vented on the weak, and if it is vented on the strong, it is either a madman or a fool.
Feminine men naturally save on this.
Besides, if he really fought with this white-bearded old man, although he was confident that he would be able to kill him in the end, it would still take some effort after all.
At the level and cultivation of the two of them, even if they make a casual move, they are shocked for a hundred miles, and the movement is not small, if they don't kill this white-bearded old man, but they attract the masters of the human race, it will be more than worth the loss.
Thinking like this in his heart, the feminine man glanced at the white-bearded old man coldly, and said, "Old fellow, let you live for a few more days, and when the demon lord of my clan comes, you will definitely die! ”
"Humph!"
He snorted coldly, and his figure disappeared without a trace in an instant.
The white-bearded old man looked in the direction he was leaving, folded his hands behind his back, and remained silent.
Long.
He sighed, and was about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly noticed that there was an extra black-robed young man behind him.
The young man's sword eyebrows and starry eyes are heroic, and his breath is as deep as the sea, which makes people feel like a high mountain.
"Wow!"
The white-bearded old man was taken aback, suddenly took a half step back, and said, "Where did the honored guest come from?"
Zhao Ting smiled at him, looked at him with a look in his eyes, and said, "Interesting, Qingzhou still hides a master like Lao Zhang, um... A mountain?"
Seeing that he recognized the body, the white-bearded old man did not panic, but generously admitted: "What the Venerable guest said is good, the old man's body is exactly this Guanqi Peak. ”
He looked at Zhao Ting slightly, and there was a thoughtful look in his eyes: "The Venerable Guest has such a demeanor, I think it must be the Sage of the Human Race-Zhao Ting, right?"
Zhao Ting was a little surprised by these words, and said, "My husband actually recognizes me?"
The white-bearded old man smiled slightly and was silent.
Zhao Ting didn't ask any more questions, and instead said: "I see that the old man's body has a gentle breath, mixed but not aggressive, obviously a Shinto cultivator, and he has been protecting a living soul for a long time. That is to say, please go to the nearby county town as soon as possible to apply for an identity token, so as not to injure the sons and daughters of my demon slayer army by mistake. ”
"Thank you for the sage's reminder, the old man has already handled it. ”
The white-bearded old man smiled, his long eyebrows raised, and out of nowhere, he took out a silver identity token and presented it to Zhao Ting.
Zhao Ting glanced at it casually, and saw four small black characters written on the name of the token, "Old Man Watching Chess".
"Old man watching chess, is this the name of the old man?"
The white-bearded old man nodded.
Zhao Ting returned the token to him again, and said, "Zhao has other important things to do now, so it is inconvenient to stay longer." After dealing with the matter at hand, I will come to talk to the chess veteran. ”
The old man smiled and said, "Okay, the old man is here to wait for the sage." ”
Zhao Ting said goodbye to him and walked away.
......
Meanwhile.
Jinzhou.
The ancestral land of the Bai family.
In the shrine of the Bai family, almost all of them were kneeling at this time, most of them were the core high-level of the Bai family of the Spirit Clan, from the elders of the family pavilion to the deacons of the outer mansions, almost everything.
They knelt down in front of a statue of a man with a grim face, their expressions almost more solemn than the other, and some of them did not even dare to breathe.
Moment.
The statue of the cold man suddenly lit up with a white divine light, which was extremely dazzling, accompanied by bursts of fairy music, and a huge divine power spread.
After a long time of incense, the divine light gradually dissipated. A woman in a white feather coat emerges from a pillar of light.
The woman's face is delicate and perfect, her figure is extremely graceful, and her gestures are full of anticipation, with a holy atmosphere.
The crystal feet as naked as jade, three thousand green silks hanging down from the shoulders, are so perfect that people can't afford to have a trace of blasphemy.
"Meet the Oracle!"
A pavilion elder of the Bai family said loudly.
Seeing this, the other clansmen in the shrine hurriedly followed, knelt on the ground and kowtowed, and said in unison: "Meet the divine envoy!"
For the actions and reactions of the Bai family, the white-clothed envoy was very satisfied, and the voice like a wind chime sounded faintly: "Get up and speak." ”
"Thank you. ”
Seeing everyone get up, the white-clothed divine envoy looked around and said: "The name of this seat is Qingshuang, and it is the divine envoy under the throne of the Snow Mountain, and this time the lower realm is here for all things of the human race." ”
After a pause, she said again: "It has been more than two months since the Snow Mountain God Lord sent down the oracle, and you Bai family have already investigated the methods of the human race, right?"
