Chapter 144: The Gathering of the Strong
The night was dark and silent.
The cold wind blew, with a bone-chilling meaning.
Li Youshan couldn't sleep, wearing the Imperial Armor and holding the Soul Breaking Gun, sitting on the edge of Heidan Town, on a rather high watchtower.
The faint moonlight is faint and quiet, sprinkled all over the mountains.
His eyes were gloomy, staring at the distant wilderness, a yin corpse wandering aimlessly, and the occasional mountain ghost or two.
"It's more than what I reported last night. Li Youshan squinted his eyes.
Last night, the Heavenly Imperial Division of Heidan Town reported that there were twenty ghosts such as yin corpses wandering outside the town.
Li Youshan was ordered to lead a hundred soldiers of the Heavenly Imperial Division to garrison in Heidan Town.
But tonight, on his side alone, there were no less than twenty Yin ghouls that could be seen wandering outside the town.
The number of ghosts outside the entire town is estimated to be close to a hundred.
His hand gripping the black handle of the gun was blue with some exertion.
In Heidan Town, there were originally thirty or forty guards of the Heavenly Imperial Division, plus the hundred sergeants he brought.
These people alone, or plus some of the inner strength martial artists in the town, can barely have two hundred people.
But at this moment, the ghosts outside the town suddenly attacked the town, and these two hundred people alone were afraid that they would not be able to resist with all their might.
Although Li Youshan has a rigid and ruthless temperament, he is also a little frightened in the face of this situation at this moment.
Da, da, da...
Under the watchtower, footsteps sounded.
Li Youshan casually probed and glanced down, it was a lean sergeant of his henchman.
Pedal, pedal, pedal...
The lean sergeant hurriedly climbed the stairs up the watchtower lightly, but the boots under his feet still inevitably made a clear sound.
The lean sergeant paused as he climbed, looking at the wandering ghosts in the wilderness in the distance.
He swallowed nervously.
Even if he is a sergeant of the Heavenly Imperial Division, an internal strength warrior, even if there are more than 100 colleagues stationed in the town.
But this lean sergeant had never faced such a terrible scene of a hundred ghosts walking at night.
Even at the beginning, the underworld in Youhe County broke out, but thousands of soldiers were mobilized together, and there were more than ten powerful celestials guarding it.
Now, just looking at the ghosts outside the town, he felt a little weak in his legs.
"Whew!" he finally climbed to the top floor of the watchtower where Li Youshan was, let out a sigh of relief, and wiped the fine beads of sweat on his forehead.
"Cowardly. Li Youshan glanced at him coldly.
"Hey, hey. The lean sergeant grinned brightly, took out a large ball of oiled paper from his tucked armor, and presented it to Li Youshan.
"Boss, this is the roast chicken in the town, I specially let them roast it, and it is still hot. ”
Li Youshan glanced at him calmly, looked at the roast chicken wrapped in oiled paper, and there was a trace of hot aroma overflowing.
He took it, tore it open, and the roast chicken was steaming hot and greasy.
Li Youshan tore off a chicken leg and swallowed it in a big bite.
After these two hours, he was also a little hungry.
The lean sergeant swallowed, then poked his head out to look at the wandering ghosts in the wilderness with fear in his eyes.
"Boss, if these ghosts rush into the town together, how are we going to defend it?"
Li Youshan's action of biting the chicken leg stopped suddenly, and he glanced at the lean sergeant coldly before he said, "In the town, there is a Demon Suppression Stone Tablet, and they dare not come in." ”
The lean sergeant hesitated, but still asked Li Youshan, "But, boss, I always feel that the speed of these ghosts is increasing too fast. ”
"In case, the Demon Suppression Monument can't deter more ghosts, then let's ......"
"Shut up!" Li Youshan stared at the lean sergeant coldly, making his heart tremble.
Li Youshan was also afraid.
Youhe County has never seen such a large number of ghosts wandering.
Can the Demon Suppression Stone Tablet be used all the time...... He also had deep worries in his heart.
It's like a person, leaning on a burning bonfire, relying on the fierce blazing fire, to deter the wolves around him.
But the wolves are gathering more and more.
Li Youshan also didn't know how long the deterrent power of the "bonfire" could be maintained.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The next day, early in the morning, Youhe County.
Very early, there were sergeants from the Heavenly Imperial Division, who respectfully came to report Cheng Yuan, and Zhu Tao and other strong men of the Heavenly Imperial Division were invited.
"Old patriarch, I'll go first. Cheng Yuan mentioned by the way: "Remember, let the clansmen cultivate well, I came back this time, and the cultivation resources I brought back are enough." Don't save it. ”
Cheng Mingyuan smiled and nodded: "Be careful, there are a few little rabbit cubs who dare to be lazy, I will directly ban their feet, let them practice for me!"
Cheng Yuan laughed unconsciously.
In fact, the old patriarch Cheng Mingyuan said that "a few little rabbit cubs", three of them are older than Cheng Yuan, and they are Cheng Yuan's cousins.
Obviously, in Cheng Mingyuan's eyes, Cheng Yuan has far surpassed the status of his juniors.
Indeed, today's Cheng Yuan is the pillar of the entire Cheng family.
All the power and wealth are the status of the Cheng family, and almost all of them are brought by Cheng Yuan.
"I'm leaving. Cheng Yuan went straight out.
Walking on the road, Cheng Yuan obviously felt that the atmosphere in Youhe County had become much more tense, and almost most of the people were discussing and worrying about the news about the ghosts wandering at night.
After all, in the entire Youhe County, most towns and villages have suffered similar things, and some people who have come to the city to take refuge and report the news have naturally spread the news.
The Heavenly Imperial Division did not forcibly control and conceal this kind of information.
Guarding Youhe County mainly relies on the heavenly soldiers and celestial powerhouses of the Heavenly Imperial Division, even if it is tens of thousands of mortal internal martial artists, at most they only play some auxiliary subtle roles.
Ordinary people, people's hearts are not chaotic, and it is of little significance.
However, some news that obviously spread rumors and caused panic was clarified.
While paying attention to these, Cheng Yuan also quickly came to the residence of the Heavenly Imperial Division, one of the magnificent halls.
Entering the main hall, there were already dozens of Heavenly Emperor powerhouses sitting in the hall, at least all of them were in the realm of heaven and man.
The patriarchs and ancestors of the top families in Youhe County, such as the Wang family, the Yi family, and the Song family, are also among them.
But it is obvious that here, their strength and status are considered to be the lowest level.
Most of the celestials who live in a small remote county town are very poor in talent and low courage, and they dare not temper themselves in life and death for a long time.
Although they have cultivated for a long time, they have all reached the realm of upper heaven and man, but their strength and wealth are at the bottom.
As for this time, the dozens of celestials sent by the Heavenly Imperial Division were all senior high-ranking celestials who were fighting, fighting and grinding in the land of ruins.
Whether it is the secret method, the divine armor, or the strength, fighting experience, courage, etc., they are obviously much higher than the celestials in the county.
