Chapter 10: Night Attack on a Deserted Village
Yun Li nodded, and he had always kept in mind the mocking words of Lin Shizong's brothers and sisters: "Since this is the case, then let's join Senior Brother Ye's team." β
Huang Cheng also agreed: "I don't like Lin Shizong's brothers and sisters either, you both think it's good to join Senior Brother Ye's team, then I'll join it too." β
Li Mengyang said: "Then we will meet at Yingjie Square tomorrow, and then go to Senior Brother Ye together to rush to Hongzhou to eliminate demons." β
"Okay," Huang Cheng and Yun Li nodded and said.
On Yingjie Square the next day, Yun Li, Huang Cheng and Ye Mengyang were waiting for the teacher of the Great Chu Military Academy to release the task. Yingjie Square is the place where all the teachers and students of the Great Chu Military Academy gather, the venue is very wide, a majestic square, a radius of several miles, there are towering Panlong Huabiao, above the Huabiao, white clouds, the breeze gusts, in Yunli's memory, this square is much larger than the small village where he lived since he was a child.
Normally, there was no one in this square, but now it was full of people, and there were students of the Great Chu Military Academy wearing black armor everywhere.
At this moment, in the sky among the white clouds in the distance, an extremely deafening thunder suddenly sounded, as if the white clouds in the sky were scared away, and a large blank space appeared in the sky.
Then, in the blank sky, three white-bearded old men slowly flew in. These three old men did not ride the eagle eagle, but they all had a glow under their feet, and their bodies were full of brilliance. Compared with riding the eagle eagle, it is much more majestic, and there is a taste of "immortals" in the sky. This is obviously a master above the Yuan Infant Stage, Yun Li has seen Chu Tong, the book says that only monks who have reached the Yuan Infant Stage can fly in the Spiritual Qi Void, and they do not need to borrow the Eagle Eagle to fly, and the monks below the Yuan Infant Stage can only fly at high altitude with the help of the Eagle Eagle.
Yun Li looked at the three old men who flew over with the Xiaguang Treasure Qi, and there was also a look of envy in his eyes.
The three elders slowly landed on the high platform on Yingjie Square, and suddenly the many students in the audience were silent. This high platform is ten zhang high, like a mountain peak, and it is the place where the teachers of the Great Chu Military Academy stand on it, give lectures to students, and issue important tasks.
"In Hongzhou, which is not far from Chu, there are disciples of the Demon Sect Burning Moon Society, who not only bewitched the ignorant people to scatter their wealth, but also killed the common people to practice pills. Thousands of families in the vicinity have already been murdered. Because there were not many monks in Hongzhou, there was only a state pastor in the early stage of the Jindan period and a guard general in the middle of the Jindan period, as well as a few partial generals in the foundation building period and dozens of centurions in the condensation period. The Red State Pastor sent the guards to lead the troops to eradicate these Burning Moon Sect disciples, but who expected that the army led by the guards would fall into the trap of these demon cultists. The guards of the Jindan period were severely injured and fled back to Hongzhou City with the great protector of the Burning Moon Sect, and several generals in the foundation building period and centurions in the condensation period all died, and even more ordinary soldiers died. The Hongzhou Prefecture Pastor urgently asked for help from the Great Chu Heavenly Dynasty Imperial Court, and the Great Chu Heavenly Pilgrim listened to the opinions of the Sixth Highness and decided to hand over the task of quelling the Burning Moon Sect rebellion to the students of the Great Chu Military Academy to complete. β
"Presumably, among you, there are already many people who know about this mission, this time the Great Chu Military Academy sent you out, firstly, to eradicate the Demon Sect and save the people, and secondly, to let you go out to experience and grow. Anyone who can kill 1,000 Demon Sect disciples can get a reward of 1,000 Military Academy Contribution Points. If you can kill the Demon Church Master, you will be rewarded with Tsukidan. An old man wearing red armor, with a gossamer flashing all over his body, and a giant axe behind him, suddenly spoke, and suddenly the words were like thunder, rolling and ranging, reaching the ears of every student of the Great Chu Military Academy.
"Among you, if you think that you can't cultivate at home and are not enough to get rid of demons, you can stay in the military academy and continue to cultivate. Another old man said.
"If you want to make a big difference after being admitted to the Great Chu Military Academy, you must not be afraid of the thorny jungle. Although as long as you embark on this path, there is a dilemma of life and death. However, only by tempering in life and death and seeing through the great terror between life and death can you stimulate your potential, improve your realm cultivation, and make greater contributions to the Celestial Empire in the future. You decide for yourselves how you want to go. As soon as he finished speaking, the three old men slowly flew up from the high platform and disappeared. The three old men who conveyed the news flew away, and all the students suddenly exploded into discussions.
"Let's go, let's go find Senior Brother Night and set off together to go to Hongzhou to get rid of demons. Li Mengyang said to Yun Li and Huang Cheng. Yun Li and Huang Cheng nodded, and then followed behind Li Mengyang.
Yun Li and his party came to a courtyard in the Dream Seeking Palace, and saw three men and one woman sitting there. The man in green clothes at the head saw Yun Li and the three of them walk in, and said, "Senior Sister Meng Yang, you are finally here, presumably these two are Senior Brother Yun Li and Senior Brother Huang Cheng." β
"Meet Senior Brother Night. Huang Cheng and Yun Li arched their hands.
It was Ye Jinchao who was wearing green clothes, and he continued to smile and said, "The two junior disciples don't have to be so polite. Let me introduce you to these three senior brothers and sisters, who were also students who were admitted to the Great Chu Military Academy last year. Liu Bi, the seventh order of condensation. Furnishings, five levels of condensation. Clove, the seventh order of condensation. β
"Meet Senior Brother Liu, Senior Brother Chen, Senior Sister Ding" Huang Cheng, Li Mengyang, and Yun Li arched their hands.
The three senior brothers and sisters also got up and bowed back to Yun Li and the others.
Ye Jinchao looked at everyone and said, "Since everyone has arrived, let's go to Hongzhou." β
The other six replied, "Yes." β
The Red State, named the Red State, is because most of the soil in the Red State is blood red. There has always been such a legend in Hongzhou: it is rumored that in ancient times, Xu Fu, the national teacher of the Great Qin Dynasty, fought with the immortals outside the territory in this place, and finally the immortals outside the territory were cut off by Xu Fu with a sword, and after killing the original god, the blood of the immortals outside the territory fell here, since then most of the soil color of the red state is red, and the crops planted on the red land of the red state are faster and better than those grown in other places, and the land of the red state is also rich in various elixirs, and the effect of the elixir is also better than that of other places, probably because the blood of the immortals moistens the land of the red stateγ
Yun Li and his party sat on the eagle eagle, flew for a long time and finally arrived at the border of Hongzhou, they first chose to go to the village where the disciples of the Burning Moon Sect appeared as provided by the intelligence. When they arrived, they found that there was no one left in the village, leaving only the devastation of the Burning Moon Cult. Yun Li and the others had checked, all the dead adult men in this village had their hearts gouged out, all the dead adult women had been drained of blood, and as for the children's bodies, all the children were gone, Yun Li and they guessed that all the children must have been captured by the disciples of the Burning Moon Sect.
And now it happened to be night again, and Ye Jinchao decided to rest in this deserted village tonight, and said: "Everyone, we have been on the road for a day today, and we have arrived in Hongzhou. Let's take a break here tonight and refresh yourself. Tomorrow we may have to fight the Burning Moon disciples. β
So the seven people in this group lit a bonfire, drank water, ate and meditated. And Yun Li always felt that there were people around him peeping at his group, and on the surface he was closing his eyes to recuperate, but in fact, he had been paying attention to the movements in all directions.
At the same time, not far from the outside of the village, a pair of strange eyes had been staring at them since Yun Li and his party entered the village.
I don't know how long it has been, Yun Li has been drowsy, after all, after a day of running, his body has already been tired. The other six people also remained silent and did not speak, closing their eyes and saying nothing.
At this moment, the campfire was suddenly extinguished by a gust of wind. The eagle eagle also suddenly flew high into the sky, and kept not listening.
In the dark and silent night of the deserted village, it is particularly harsh. At this time, Ye Jinchao, who felt the changes in the outside world, was the first to stand up, and then the other six people also stood up.
Under the moonlight, Yun Li saw that there were mysterious people dressed in black all around, they all held special crossbows in their hands, and they all had a fierce aura on their bodies, as if they were hellish devils, and they were indeed extremely ferocious.
Ye Jinchao shouted, "Who are you? Demon Sect disciple?"
The response to the night was a rain of arrows. Whoosh, swish, swish! The overwhelming rain of arrows swooped down like locusts, and the piercing power of this crossbow arrow was so strong that it seemed to tear apart everyone's body.
"Damn" Yun Li scolded secretly, and with a bang, Yun Li pulled out his flying sword, danced into a sword flower, protected his face and other vital parts, and flicked the crossbow arrows that came over one by one. Although many arrows were fired at his black armor, they were all bounced off one by one and could not penetrate them.
However, the powerful penetrating power of the arrow still made him feel pain all over his body, if it weren't for the black armor issued by the Great Chu Military Academy, Yun Li would have been shot into a hedgehog by crossbow arrows.
"Let's lean together," Huang Cheng said as he struggled to resist the rain of arrows.
"Okay", so Yun Li and Li Mengyang approached Huang Cheng while resisting the rain of arrows.
"Hmph, a bunch of ants! Just because these ants want to kill us?"
I saw that after Ye Jinchao finished speaking, the flying sword in his hand, like a lightning sword, rose into the sky, swam all over the air, and suddenly the rain of arrows in the sky was swept away. All the black-clothed people were swept away by this lightning-like sword, and their heads suddenly fell from their bodies, and blood rushed to the sky.
"What a strong strength," Yun Li couldn't help but sigh at the scene where he had just seen Senior Brother Ye kill all the people in black in an instant.
Huang Cheng said, "Be careful, this is just the beginning, those black-clothed people just now are just ordinary Burning Moon Cultists, and they are not considered monks. β
"Hahaha, hahahaha! Ye Jinchao, who is worthy of being one of the top ten masters of the Great Chu Military Academy's heroic list, is really unusual, and he can actually kill all the outer sect members of my Burning Moon Sect this time with one sword. β
