Chapter 178: The Water is Boundless, and the Way to Return is Long (14)

Qiu Yuanye looked at Fan Xiang, and saw that Fan Xiang did not speak, so he continued: "At this time, an 10,000 man of our army, An Nuxiong, ordered the sergeant to change the glaive formation into a horizontal formation, and the shield was used as a phalanx, and the beggar army launched an attack again, forming a three-star formation to attack, breaking the horizontal formation, seizing the shield, and our army was killed and forced into Swan Lake by drowning as many as thousands of people. In the melee, the 10,000-strong commander of our army, An Nuxiong, was shot and killed by a stray arrow, and the other 10,000-strong commander was shot through the ears and neck by crossbow arrows, bleeding all over his body, desperately escaping the strangulation of the three-star array of the elite beggar army. At dusk, General Shangguan personally led 20,000 Tiefutu and ordered the cavalry of our army with Tiefutu as the core to directly attack head-on, and stepped forward to confront the 4,000-star array led by Yong Yisheng. Yong Yisheng is very good at using soldiers, fighting lightly, leading the army to make a little contact, and then fleeing. ”

"Our army was surrounded on all sides, and General Shangguan led 20,000 Tiefutu to follow, and at the same time ordered General Long Tian, General Gai Tian, and General Han to lead the two wings of the abduction horses to attack the flank of the three-star formation of the beggar army, trying to surround the beggar army. The combat effectiveness of this beggar army led by Yong Yisheng is very tenacious. These elite soldiers are really the top 100 teams you have trained, and they are very brave and good at fighting. Suddenly, the whole army quickly turned over as a whole, facing the 20,000 Tiefutu of General Shangguan, and immediately set up a three-star array, and after the ironclad army used strong shields and spears to block the impact of the Tiefutu, more than 700 wall-breaking troops armed with long knives and axes took the opportunity to attack the Tiefutu that had lost its momentum. In this attack, General Shangguan's frontal attack was once again broken, and at the same time, General Long Tian and General Gaitian's kidnapping horses were repulsed by the Iron Armor Army. At this time, the twenty-eight Rui Shi who came back were divided into two groups, Yong Yisheng rode the Dawan Liang Horse, Su Xinyan rode the Tu Mo Divine Horse, and Chun Yu Tiying led the thirteen people team and your guards to attack General Shangguan's Iron Floating Tu from the flank and back. After listening to the military intelligence report today, I thought, what kind of elite soldier is this, the combat power is so terrifying, why don't I have such a soldier under my command!" Speaking of this, Qiu Yuan Ye also looked at the top of the tent in the prison, and he actually showed fascination.

"After defeating the Iron Floating Massacre, Yong Yisheng and others killed Swan Lake, but the bridge in the lake is not too wide, so most of your elite soldiers will die here. Unexpectedly, in order for those women in the army to escape, Yong Yisheng fought alone, holding a big lance and rampage, as if entering a no-man's land. Subsequently, Liu Feiyan also joined the battle group for some reason, fell behind the elite beggar army who crossed Swan Lake in the north, and joined forces with Yong Yisheng to block the bridge. Our army knew that this general was unstoppable, and sent several people with several long ropes to intercept Yong Yisheng, but they were all cut off by this fierce general. In the end, General Shangguan ordered all the troops to fire thousands of arrows in unison, and only then did they shoot the two fierce generals to death by the Swan Lake Bridge. General Shangguan took pity on the two of them for their loyalty and bravery, and ordered them to be incinerated and buried by Swan Lake with the general's ceremony. The arrows taken out of the two of them amounted to dozens of catties, alas, it is a pity for such warriors. Akihara couldn't help but sigh.

Fan Xiang listened, looked at Qiu Yuanye coldly, and said calmly: "Life will be destroyed in the cruelty of bullying, but the spirit will not; ”

"Haha, don't you think that the gravitational pull of this reality is too heavy, and any flying thoughts will crash to the ground, like Lucifer's fall to the sky, crushed into dust by history!"

"Between heaven and earth, some birds can't be closed, and the moment he flappes his wings, it belongs to him alone!" Fan Xiang said softly, silently walked to the center of the cage, sat cross-legged, closed his eyes, and stopped talking.

Seeing this, Qiu Yuanye sat back on the wooden chair and said, "Don't you want to hear it, it's okay, this story should be over, I will send you to the assembly place of our army in the underworld, so that Brother Murong can also see you." Then I will kill you and sacrifice the flag......" With that, he stood up and walked out of the makeshift prison.

The next day, dozens of brightly clad soldiers walked into the prison surrounded a civilian-looking man in a brocade robe and embroidered satin. The civil officer walked to Fanxiang's cage and waved his hand at the soldiers, who went over to open the cage, and several soldiers rushed in and pushed Fanxiang out of the cage, and the shackles on his hands and feet dragged on the ground, and there was a loud sound.

The soldier brought Fanxiang to the civil official, who did not say anything, looked at Fanxiang, and put an inky black thing shaped like a neck band in his hand on Fanxiang's neck. The neck band was put on the back of Fanxiang's neck, flashing blue light faintly, and then completely matching with the skin between Fanxiang's neck. Fan Xiang suddenly felt a little cold in her body, and then fluttered, feeling as if this body was not her own.

The soldiers pushed Fan Xiang out of the cage. Fan Xiang looked around, it was a big Gobi, the Gobi was flat as a mirror, the desert was boundless, the wind was whistling, and countless marching tents and camps were continuous, but there was no smell of fireworks in the world. The soldiers carried Fanxiang across the Gobi Desert to the west, through a mountain pass called Shanyaokou, and soon a hill appeared in the distance. Many of Beigong's servants were forming a long line, marching neatly towards the mountain pass.

In the blink of an eye, the mountains are getting closer and closer, and the clouds and mist between the mountains and rocks are the Wakhan Corridor. Walk into the mountain pass, the more you go inside, the narrower the road, it seems that there is another world in it, when you get closer again, you suddenly feel a canyon exposed between the mountains and cliffs, the stone wall at the mountain pass is engraved with three big characters of "Wu Yu Gorge", the pen is steep and cold, and there is a faint intention to kill. There is a transparent bubble-like shielding film between the gorges, floating in the air, invisibly dividing the inside and outside of the Wufu Gorge into two different dimensional worlds. The soldiers who escorted her to the place did not move forward, but escorted her to a prisoner cart drawn by a winged horse. An official in an ochre-red robe descended from the prisoner's car, followed by two armored soldiers with iron halberds. After the officer had completed the handover formalities with the soldiers escorting, the two soldiers pushed Fan Xiang into the prisoner cart. The official and two armor soldiers escorted Fanxiang, and then passed through the bubble-like shield, and went straight along the valley mouth. The stone walls on both sides of the gorge stand abruptly, like a knife and an axe to split, look up at the sky, only to feel that the sky is blue and black, and there is no end in sight, as if sitting at the bottom of the well and looking up at the water surface. The rocks in the gorge are all black, black and shiny, and cold. The road in between twists and turns is unusually twisty. It is completely different from the world beyond the gorge, obscure and ethereal.

A team of captains in the gorge was marching towards the assembly site on the south bank of the mouth of the Underworld Bitter Sea stationed in the North Palace.

The prisoner car exceeded the speed of the Beigong servant army, and walked in the middle of the canyon against the wind, and ran in the gorge for about half a day, the sky above the canyon glowed with a faint and cold light, and the canyons on both sides gradually opened up, and the scene was different at the mouth of the canyon, the primeval forests were all over, and the clouds and mist were shrouded.

Here is the middle section of the canyon, thousands of peaks are showing, thousands of ravines and clouds, waterfalls and flowing springs, clear and beautiful. All of them are limestone areas, with steep mountains and many peaks. And the mountains are deep and densely forested, drizzling and smoky. It seems to be a fairy charm different from the world, and the landscape is unique, and it is a different world that is completely different from the human world. The prisoner cart flew in mid-air, overlooking the Silk Road in the valley in the sky, winding and long, and the marching procession of the servant army was like an ant colony winding forward.

Entering the end of the canyon, the air around you suddenly became very hot, as if entering a volcano, both sides of the canyon are volcanic piles of red mountain rock, constantly spewing out hot lava, exuding a strong smell of sulfur, and some volcanic piles without erupting lava, the top of which forms a round basin mouth, filled with secluded blue water, like a heavenly pool. The prisoner cart traveled through the lava and smoke, the heat and smoke were unbearable, and it was hit by magma that sprayed into the air many times. After this time, the soldiers of the Beigong Servant Army marching in the canyon were scalded to death by the magma splashed everywhere and killed by the thick smoke of sulfur, and there were only 100 people who were able to pass through safely.

The canyon here is littered with ordnance and parts of crashed flying ships left behind by the Servants, and those corpses will be burned in an instant by the magma points that erupt from mid-air, and then turn into flying ashes, which will be blown deep into the underworld at the end of the canyon by the wind that roams in the canyon at any time. The minions who survived through the volcanic canyon continued to march into the unknown distance in an orderly march, like a large and disciplined zombie army instilled with the spirit of bushido.

The Pegasus Prisoner Cart carrying Fanxiang flew between the gaps in the erupting magma, and I don't know how long it flew in the mid-air of this volcanic canyon, and finally came to the end of Wufu Canyon. At the port of the canyon, I saw a small hill standing abruptly above a plain of reckless yellow sand in the distance. This hill stands abruptly on the barren plains of the underworld, the peak is towering, the slope of the mountain is frozen and snowy, and the mountainside is covered with white clouds, covered in silver, and the clouds and mist are curling, looking like a long silver knife that reaches into the sky. Under the mountain is the confluence of the three ditches of the ditch, the chasm, the ditch of the underworld, the south, the north and the west are surrounded by water on three sides, the water is clear as nothing, it is also light as the smoke yarn, it is ethereal, the surrounding wide field is divided into three vertical and six horizontal, the terrain is very dangerous.

The prisoner car flew out of the end of the valley and was about to reach the hill that came out of nowhere, only to see three cursive characters engraved on a boulder on the mountain: "Heartless Cliff". The further you go, the colder and wetter the climate becomes, the air is thin, and the ecological environment is lonely and desolate. The Cliff of Despair is a coordinate point that connects the reincarnation of creatures in another world, entering the underworld from various passes, which has both the danger of mountains and rivers, and the convenience of transportation. It is recorded in the "Book of Mountains" that "the west of the West Sea, the shore of quicksand, behind the Hongshui, before the gutter, there is the underworld in front of it, and there is a mountain in the back, which is called the hill of despair." ”
