The woman shirked again and again, and finally put away the money bag, kowtowed again and again, and thanked her for her kindness.

Several ragged refugees around her saw that the woman had obtained so much money, and their eyes flashed with jealousy and greed, staring at the two bags of silver, if Xu Daoyun hadn't been here, they would have moved a long time ago.

Xu Daoyunfeng's eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "This money was handed over to her from me, if you are too long-lived, you can grab one and try it." ”

As soon as these words came out, the refugees all craned their necks, felt a chill down their spines, and didn't dare to have any crooked thoughts anymore.

The woman bowed and said from the bottom of her heart: "Thank you, my lord, my lord's great kindness, Xie Jing will never forget, and I will repay her with death in the future." ”

After that, he pulled up the cart and walked slowly to Jiangdepo.

Xu Daoyun waved his hand, "You guys should go in too." ”

Several refugees thanked them again and again, and were about to walk into Jiangdepo together, when suddenly a young man in his twenties spat out a mouthful of turbid and strange-smelling green blood, and then fell to his knees with his stomach covered, his mouth wide open, and kept vomiting filth, which was extremely foul.

Xu Daoyun's eyes widened, and he clearly found that the green tendons on this man's body were prominent, and his limbs and body began to swell, and the blood vessels were dense.

The most terrifying thing is the cheeks, which are simply unrecognizable, the facial features are almost distorted, the pupils are only the whites of the eyes and no blacks, the fangs are protruding, the mouth is grinning to the root of the ears, the originally neat teeth have become extremely sharp, and saliva is flowing from the mouth, which is daunting.

The rest of the refugees all screamed and fled around, and Xu Daoyun shouted, "Brother Zhu, stop them." ”

After speaking, he waved his sword and directly cut off the head of the man who was about to turn into a monster, and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry brother, I will give you a good time, and send you to the bliss of life." ”

Zhu Bo captured all the refugees, and said with a stern expression: "It's such a powerful poison, it started so quickly, but why am I still safe and sound?"

Xu Daoyun guessed: "Maybe this poison is only useful for ordinary people, and it doesn't have much effect on us monks. ”

Zhu Bo breathed a sigh of relief, "Thank God, I'm almost going to become this kind of monster that is not human or ghost, it is really better to live than to die." ”

Xu Daoyun said with a smile: "Brother Zhu doesn't have to worry, let's go to the commander to report first." ”

Immediately, the two of them walked towards Jiang Depo together, Xu Daoyun thought thoughtfully, thinking that the reason why Nie Qingsheng and the others were so busy must be related to the poison that the water demon had infected.

This kind of poison is really appalling, bites and scratches will be infected into monsters, as soon as the news comes out, the people by the Wangsi River will be in danger, panic all day.

It is no wonder that there were still some people on the road from Jiangdepo to Wangsi River in the past, but now half of the figure is not visible.

From a distance, the two saw a camp rising from the ground on Guanlu Avenue, with sentry posts on both sides, braziers lit on them, and two green flag guards.

Bypassing the rejection of the horse, Xu Daoyun and the others approached the camp, because the two were wearing fangs and bright leather, so the guards did not warn and stop them.

When I entered the camp, it was extremely empty, and many tents had been set up temporarily, and people were coming in and out, most of them wearing armor and more or less wounded.

Xu Daoyun and the two glanced at each other and walked towards the Chinese army tent in front of them.

The tent was brightly lit, and there were faint voices coming out, Xu Daoyun recognized this voice as Nie Qingsheng and Xie Zhixian, and the two should be talking.

Approaching the main tent, the two of them bowed their hands outside the tent and said, "Commander, Xu Daoyun has come to report." ”

"Zhu Bo came to report. ”

There was silence in the tent at first, and then Nie Qingsheng's voice came out: "Come in." ”

The two walked into the tent and saluted Nie Qingsheng in the first seat and Xie Zhixian in the deputy seat.

Xie Zhixian nodded and said to Nie Qingsheng: "There is still not enough manpower, if there is really a shortage of people, I can write a letter and transfer people from the county government of another county." ”

Nie Qingsheng sighed and said: "Finally, there are two of them, don't be busy asking for help first, and in a few days, see how the momentum of the water demon is, and then make a decision." ”

Xie Zhixian paused, then looked at Xu Daoyun, and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a few days, Daoyun has actually broken through to the Qi Refining Realm, it is really not easy to have such a cultivation at such an age." ”

Nie Qingsheng nodded, "It's not easy, it's not easy, it coincides with the rebellion of the water demon, which just allows him to hone and hone and adapt." ”

Xu Daoyun arched his hand and said: "The two adults praised it falsely. ”

Then he glanced at Zhu Bo, who was scarred beside him, and asked, "Just outside Jiangdepo, there was a young man who suddenly turned beyond recognition, and he bit when he saw someone, could it be that the minions of the water demon are full of poison?"

Nie Qingsheng picked up the teacup and took a sip, his eyebrows full of sorrow.

Xie Zhixian shook his head and smiled, and said: "Exactly, these water demons have toxins hidden in their bodies, as long as they cut through the skin, the toxins can penetrate the internal organs along the blood. ”

Zhu Bo was taken aback, his eyes widened and he said, "Then I have dozens of wounds on my body, big and small, am I about to turn into a monster?"

"You can rest assured, although this poison is fierce, it does not pose much of a threat to us monks. Ordinary people don't know how to practice, they don't know how to practice qi, how to reverse qi and blood, there is no true qi in the body, there is no Xuangong to protect the body, they can't resist the spread of toxins, and in the end they can only turn into half-human monsters, irretrievable. ”

"The monk has very strong antibodies against these toxins. After a while, you go to get a pair of blood cleansing and drink, and then get a bucket of water, and you can rest easy by forcing out the toxins. ”

Zhu Bo let out a sigh, patted his palm on his chest and said, "Thank God, thank God." ”

Nie Qingsheng waved his hand and said: "Go to the quartermaster to get a set of armor, find an empty room to live in, and be ready to deal with emergencies at any time. ”

"Yes. ”

The two of them gave up their hands and withdrew from the main account.

Xie Zhixian asked: "Lord Nie, we have been in a stalemate with the water demons in Wangsi River for half a month, and my county government and your Yunwei Division still have a lot of official affairs piled up and unhandled, so we can't spend it like this." ”

Nie Qingsheng sighed, closed his eyes, rubbed his temples with one hand, and asked, "How many Qi Refining Realm cultivators do we have here?"

Xie Zhixian blurted out, "With you and me, plus Xu Daoyun who just came, there are seven in total." ”

"Seven..."Nie Qingsheng half-squinted his eyes and asked again, "On the water demon's side, how many goblins have appeared?"

Xie Zhixian replied like a stream, "Plus the ones who just appeared yesterday, there are a total of nine." ”

"What realm?" Nie Qingsheng asked.

"Five for class C, three for class B, and one for class A. ”

Nie Qingsheng said: "On our side, you and I are both first-class in the Qi Refining Realm, and there are two second-class and three C-class. What do you think are the odds of fighting those nine goblins?"

Xie Zhixian frowned and pondered for a moment, and replied: "Lose less and win more." ”

Nie Qingsheng raised his forehead and said: "The dark tide in the river is turbulent, it is turbid, and it doesn't see the light of day, who knows how many goblins are hidden, don't dare to act rashly." ”

Xie Zhixian said with a smile: "Maybe there are demon generals." ”

"If there really is a demon general, I'm afraid none of us will be able to escape. ”

The demon general, with the magic power of opening mountains and cracking stones, destroying rivers and seas, the monks of the Qi refining realm are as small and fragile as ants in the eyes of the demon generals.

Xie Zhixian sighed, "Let's take one step at a time, if the situation is beyond the scope of your and my ability, then we can only ask for help from Qingping Mansion." ”

Like the monks of the human race, the demon race also has a division of the realm of cultivation, the lowest level of demons is called as demon soldiers, then goblins, and then there are demon generals who have survived a catastrophe.

The demon soldier is equivalent to the innate realm, the goblin corresponds to the qi refining realm of the human race monks, and the demon general is equivalent to the qi gathering realm.

The demon clan is talented, except for a few bloodline supernatural powers, all monsters are born to be able to swallow the aura of heaven and earth, and the starting point of cultivation is the innate realm, and the bloodline talent is extremely superior.

This is also the advantage of the demon race, which is unique, and it is really under the infinite favor of the Creator.

It's a pity that most of the remaining strange shapes, and the demon soldiers who have not reached the realm of goblins have low spiritual intelligence, and it is not an exaggeration to say that they are stunned.

......

Xu Daoyun and the others reported to the quartermaster's office, received two sets of armor, and found a deserted camp to settle in.

Zhu Bo picked up a bowl of porcelain bowl filled with thick black soup, put it under his nose and smelled it, frowned and arched his nose and said, "It stinks, what does it smell..."

Xu Daoyun, who was laying out the futon on the side, said with a smile: "The medicine is bitter, close your eyes and drink it all in one gulp." ”

Zhu Bo gritted his teeth, raised his head and drank the potion, then opened the wine bag and poured it violently.

Xu Daoyun said with a smile: "The war is urgent, everything is simple, fortunately, our monks have Xuangong to protect their bodies, and they are not afraid of frostbite, Brother Zhu may endure it?"

Zhu Bo smiled bitterly: "It's okay to say it's cold, but the injuries on this body need to be stained with cold water, and the taste is probably uncomfortable." ”

After saying that, he went outside and brought in a few buckets of water, then closed the curtain, lay down in the water, and let out a strange cry.

Xu Daoyun took a deep breath, calmed his thoughts, held two pieces of purple spirit crystals in both hands, and entered the cultivation state.

Today, he was going to learn the third method of refining Qi Realm cultivators in Heaven and Earth—Protecting Body True Qi.

This is a method that all Qi Refining Realm cultivators must master, and it is necessary to condense the true qi in the body into a light shield that can be used to protect the enemy and protect the body, so it is called the True Qi of the Body.

It is recorded in the "Heavenly Dao Sword Gang" that Xu Daoyun learned that in addition to true qi, sword cultivation is also the top priority.

Gang Qi is the strength of Taoism, and it also refers to Haoran righteousness.

Practicing "Heavenly Dao Sword Gang" and "Fu Yang Dragon Breath" can generate Gang Qi on their own, and let True Qi and Gang Qi coexist.

Gang Qi fills the body, and every time there is a strong enemy, the spirit does not decrease but increases.

True Qi is the main attack, Gang Qi is the main defense, and at the same time, it has a buff effect, which can greatly improve the strength of the move.

The sword cultivation method in "Heavenly Dao Sword Gang" is to condense the Gang Qi into the body and protect the body, also known as the Gang Qi of the body.

The body protection qi is condensed by the pure yang righteous qi between heaven and earth, and the defensive power is much stronger than the ordinary body protection true qi.

Xu Daoyun's divine consciousness was concentrating on condensing the qi in the inner heaven and earth, and when it was about to take shape, suddenly the "World Journey Mystery Spectrum" that had not moved in his body for a long time began to operate on its own.

Immediately afterwards, four words flashed through Xu Daoyun's mind - dragon armor scale turtle.

At the same time, the protective body qi that he had condensed on the surface of his body began to change, and the protective body qi that was originally like a layer of mist gradually condensed.

Moreover, the surface layer has irregular lines like tortoise shells, which are thick and turbid, and do not move like a mountain.

Count carefully, there are a total of thirty-six pieces of divine armor, which are impermeable to protect the body.

Xu Daoyun clearly felt that the deformed body protection qi was several times stronger than before.

He was ecstatic in his heart, and secretly said to himself: "In the future, it can't be called a body protector, it should be called a dragon armor scale turtle." ”

Zhu Bo expelled the toxins from his body, and the entire bucket of water became cloudy and black, and emitted a foul smell.

Xu Daoyun, who was in a state of cultivation, also seemed to be aware of it, and his brows furrowed slightly, until Zhu Bo poured out the sewage, and his brows relaxed.

As the night deepened, I thought that the first night I arrived in Jiangdepo would be peaceful, but at three o'clock, a rapid and sharp copper bell sounded in the camp.

Immediately afterwards, the camp tent was lit up with fire, and the armor-clad Qingqi guards and officials all rushed out of the tent, carrying swords and spears in their hands, and began to line up.

Xu Daoyun was also standing in the crowd, and he whispered to Zhu Bo, who was still a little sleepy-eyed beside him, "Brother Zhu, what's going on?"

Zhu Bo shook his head and said, "I don't know, it should be the water demon who attacked the camp at night." ”

Xu Daoyun clenched his fists, a little eager to try, thinking that he could just test the defense of the dragon armor scale turtle.

Nie Qingsheng and Xie Zhixian stood in front of the big tent, the former raised his luck, and said in a loud voice: "Wangsijiang sentry warns, the water demon is gathering, and if you want to attack Jiangdepo, you and others immediately go to retreat the enemy, remember not to win deeply, just defend." ”

"Yes!"

Everyone agreed in unison, walked out of the camp, and rushed towards Jiangdepo.

Jiang Depo, all the way down the official road avenue, there are braziers lit on both sides of the road, the rising flames flickering in the night wind, the sound of grinding teeth and roaring in front of me is terrifying, and I can't help but feel timid.

Xu Daoyun's ears moved, swallowed his saliva, and whispered: "Obediently, look at how many water demons are in the Sijiang River, you can know that there are a lot of them when you listen to this voice." ”

Zhu Boqi said: "Brother Daoyun, you are a good ear, this place is two or three miles away from Wangsi River, how did you hear the movement?"

Xu Daoyun hooked the corners of his mouth and said proudly: "The little brother has no other skills, just this pair of ears is extremely sensitive, when I was at home before, there were strange movements from the people next door, and they couldn't escape my pair of ears." Therefore, I am very clear about the things that can see the light and the things that cannot see the light. ”

Zhu Bo comprehended, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and asked knowingly, "What strange movements?"

Xu Daoyun blinked, "Brother Zhu, let's just know it in our hearts, these things are called elegant if we don't say them, but it's vulgar and boring to say them." ”

"That's true. Zhu Bo laughed, laughing so hard that he couldn't see his eyebrows.

Everyone approached Jiang Depo, and saw from a distance that there was a large group of people in front of them fighting with countless water demons on the shore, one by one the water demons crawled out of the river, rushed to the shore, and the bounce power was amazing, and they could jump up a foot high.

Taking advantage of the unpreparedness, the water demons jumped on their shoulders and bit them, biting off the blood vessels in their throats and dying on the spot.
