Chapter 33: Homecoming

All the Imperial soldiers outside Hongcheng are in the middle of the attack. From the west were dozens of huge chariots, and from the east were countless Hongcheng people.

This was a situation they had never faced before, not just because they were attacked on their backs, but they had no idea that the werewolves could possess such the technology to drive such a large and sophisticated war machine.

Ten thousand archers rained seven rounds of arrows in a row, but the dense rain of arrows fell on the bronze chariot without leaving even a trace. It was as if a group of ancient beasts clad in bronze were rushing into the camp of the Imperial defenders, and they simply couldn't resist it. Wei Chi sent hundreds of elite men to try to climb onto the chariot, but only a dozen of the soldiers sent returned, and the rest were either run over or stabbed to death by the guards on the chariot. The power of the bronze chariot was not enormous, but they advanced slowly in unison, and the Imperial army could not stop their advance, and could only watch as the flank attack got closer and closer, leaving them less and less time.

The best way to be flanked is to desperately break through in a certain direction to get out of the predicament of being attacked by the enemy on the back of the abdomen, and the commander of this divine general battalion naturally understands what choice to make. But dozens of huge weapons in the west appeared side by side in the desert is a real copper wall, and it is a thorny copper wall, if it is not for the top masters who can cut the copper and iron with supreme divine power, the combat power of the soldiers alone will not be able to fight against such a machine.

But if you choose to break through to Hongcheng in the east, not to mention that this is equivalent to withdrawing the camp, it is a retreat without a fight, even if you withdraw the camp to the east, you will face hundreds of thousands of Hongcheng people. That's what really scares Wei Chi. Haotian Sect was founded fifty years ago. Whether it was the last years of the Chu State or the early years of the Great Qin, the Chu Emperor and the Qin Xianhuang were all laissez-faire towards the policies of the Jianghu Martial Arts Sect. Therefore, they did not expect that such a half-sectarian, half-religious organization would completely break away from the empire's rule in just fifty years.

Even in the empire, the people who sign up for enlistment in the army need to control their emotions, and at this time, the hundreds of thousands of people pouring out of the west gate of Hongcheng are simply sending them to death. The combat power of hundreds of thousands of ordinary people seemed to Wei Chi to be wiped out by only 30,000 troops, but these people were all subjects of the empire in a sense. Wei Chi was a little incredulous, the influence of religion is really so great? It can make a group of civilians who have nothing to do with the war rush to the battlefield as if they have been brainwashed.

"General, you can't break through the road ahead, and the soldiers are waiting for your order......"

Wei Chi knew that occupying Hongcheng at this moment and defending these huge war machines with the change of the city would at least be able to drag on for a while. There is a fierce battle going on in the Northern Regions, and if the news of Hongcheng's failure reaches the Northern Regions at this moment, then the morale of the Northern Regions will inevitably decrease, and the upper echelons of the Empire may also change their strategies.

But Wei Chi couldn't give an order, as Xiang Wu's subordinate, although the general who was full of killing spirit gave people the feeling of being extremely violent, but in fact, Xiang Wu governed the army very strictly, and treated his subordinates and the people with nothing to say, and followed Xiang Wu all the year round, so that Wei Chi could not attack a group of people.

"The whole army listened to the order, walked along the north gate of Hongcheng, and went around the east gate of Hongcheng from the northern line of Hulin Gobi!" Wei Chi finally gave the order.

The herald was stunned, as the herald was naturally familiar with the nearby terrain. From the Hulin Gobi to the east gate of Hongcheng, this means that this general means to give up fighting against the Haotian disciples who are pouring out of the west gate.

And this kind of abandonment is even more obvious that the people of Hongcheng will join the people of the Wanzang tribe. It also means that the Imperial Army, which is the defender of the city, will abandon Hongcheng, and may even act as the besieging side!

"General...... If you go north...... Then Hongcheng is lost! The herald hesitated.

Wei Chi didn't know the helplessness of this move, but he and the upper echelons of the empire had miscalculated the form, to be exact, I am afraid that no one in the entire empire could imagine that the Haotian Sect had imperceptibly made the entire Hongcheng a part of the Haotian Sect.

This is not to blame Wei Chi, nor to blame the imperial people, in the next hundreds of years in a certain period of history, there was even a situation where the pope and the emperor were in a rivalry, and the manipulation of people's hearts by religion began much earlier, when it really became a threat to the rulers, people began to study it seriously, guard against it, and even ...... Take advantage of it.

Of course, those things were many eras later, not at this time.

Because of this, Wei Chi, who had never been in contact with divine power, was shocked and felt incredulous. But in the end, the general chose to give up being an enemy of the people of Hongcheng.

"The herald is that if the above blames Hongcheng for the loss of the city, blames the loss of the city without resistance, and I will bear all the freedom. The soldiers of my empire do not kill the people of the empire! Wei Chi said.

"Yes!" The words of the herald were full of respect for the pond.

On this night, the calm outside the city was shattered by a sandstorm rolled up by the war machine from the West.

The festivities in the city also began with the arrival of a beggar, which no one could have imagined, and a wedding that seemed to be perfect ended because a beggar who stopped on the side of the road and no one would look at it.

It's like a lot of big things happen in history because of a very small thing.

Perhaps the uprisings that overthrew dynasties were simply the result of someone's heartfelt desire to eat meat. Perhaps the decline of those dynasties was only due to the fact that a certain family had a woman who had just grown up and was then looked at by a condescending gaze.

……

In Hongcheng, the people besieging Ding Qiliang were not those unarmed ordinary people and believers, but the real Haotian Sect members. In addition to the four high priests, the Haotian Sect also had twelve sacrifices. Most of these sacrifices went to Qinzhou City, and only four people remained in Hongcheng.

The realm of the sacrifices is not low, most of them are in the six-leaf realm or higher. In the face of a four-leaf swordsman in such a realm, they should have ended the battle very easily.

But the arrogance of this swordsman seems to have escaped from the shackles of the realm.

The power of each of his swords is quite powerful, and it can even have the power of the peak of the Seven Leaves and even the Eight Leaves realm. The most terrifying thing is that when they thought that this swordsman should have been exhausted, this swordsman became more and more courageous. The Haotian Palm Flame that fell on him obviously really hit him, and he could clearly feel that this swordsman was suffering from heart-devouring pain......

But this knife man can endure the severe pain, as if turning the pain into strength, and the power of each knife is stronger than the previous one, and he has not even retreated a step. This made these Haotian Sect sacrifices feel a little terrifying.

This swordsman is Ding Qiliang.

After the first battle of the martial arts conference, Ding Qiliang first challenged a number of strong people at the martial arts conference, won and lost, and then fought to the death with Xiahou Du in the first floor of the fake world, he won the battle extremely dangerously, but he also felt a lot in that battle, the original Jiuniu no regrets is to take courage as the knife posture, the more difficult the more courageous, and the more serious the injury, the stronger the power that erupts, but Ding Qiliang itself is only the four-leaf realm after all, no matter how magical the Jiuniu no regrets is, how powerful the knife method is, if there is no internal strength to perform, After all, he couldn't fight Qi Tianhe, but in the battle with Xiahou Du, after feeling the terrible Blood Sea Sword Technique and Gluttonous Trick at close range, Ding Qiliang suddenly got some enlightenment.

He didn't bother to practice the Blood Sea Knife Technique, a knife that relied on weapons, and it was impossible for him to practice such an evil kung fu as the gluttonous trick of absorbing people's internal strength and blood.

But at this moment, Ding Qiliang did turn the opponent's offense into the internal strength to support him wielding the knife. This is something that is absolutely impossible in Ye Yi's opinion.

Because in the battle between the two, either the opponent's strength attack can be broken by some means, or resisted, or destroyed, or directly let the opponent's strength disappear like no Ji Tailai. But it is impossible to absorb the opponent's attack and use it for its own use. If this kind of thing can be done, it is equivalent to being invincible.

Even an evil skill like gluttony can only suck human blood to gain internal strength, and cannot extract half of the strength from the opponent's already launched attacks.

Ding Qiliang naturally didn't do it, this was an impossible thing to do, he just realized Jiuniu without regrets a little deeper. The Ox Solving Knife Method, combined with the Nine Slaughters, is extremely powerful, but it consumes a very serious amount of internal strength. And Ding Qiliang, as a martial artist in the four-leaf realm, is actually not low, but he has always been by the shopkeeper's side, facing opponents whose realm is much higher than him, and he must have the ability to fight across borders to not lag behind.

He has always had it, relying on the two characteristics of Jiuniu without regrets, turning courage and fighting intent into a knife position, and the characteristics of the heavier the injury, the stronger the destructive power to complete the reversal. But that's not the limit of this amazing kung fu.

Whether it is his own realm, or the method of solving the ox knife, or even the Nine Bulls without regrets, Ding Qiliang is far from cultivating to the extreme, as the only person in the world who has practiced the Nine Bulls without regrets for so many years, although he can cross several realms to break the enemy, but this is not the limit of the Nine Bulls without regrets.

After fighting with Xiahou Duyi, he thought about it for a long time, and finally went to the next level, and the more serious the injury, the faster the operation of the Qi Sea Uchida. In other words, he finally mastered the third characteristic of Jiuniu without regrets, turning his injuries into internal strength.

On the road without retreat, there is naturally only a hard choice for many attacks, so that the injury can make Ding Qiliang's sword power stronger, and now, injury can also make Ding Qiliang send out more knives.

This is the unrepentant potential of nine bulls.

At this moment, Ding Qiliang is no longer exhausted after a knife, nor will he have a full stomach of knives, but he has no internal strength. Of course, although this magical mental method gave Ding Qiliang a powerful combat power, it also had absolute drawbacks.

The inability to retreat is not only the characteristic of Jiuniu without regrets, but also the shortcomings of Jiuniu without regrets.

Although the more serious the injury, the stronger Ding Qiliang's strength will be, but the human body has a limit after all, and if the injury is too serious, even if he is full of fighting spirit, the monstrous knife momentum, and the endless strength, the shattering of the body will eventually make all this a delusion.

Therefore, Jiuniu has no regrets, and can only be practiced by swordsmen.

Because the knife is different from the sword, the swing of the knife is to slash, destroy, and destroy. The duel between the swordsmen has always been fast.

Jiuniu's unrepentant posture is to let a swordsman defeat the opponent in a broken state before his body can withstand the limit of damage.

At this moment, Ding Qiliang waved his knife frantically in the wall of fire built by countless Dao Haotian Palm Flames, as if he had an inexhaustible sword momentum and internal strength. Those majestic sword qi were like an angry rhinoceros on a rampage.

The red sword qi in the blue flames collided violently, and after a few rounds, Haotian Palm Flame was completely annihilated by Ding Qiliang's Ox Solving Knife Technique.

And Ding Qiliang was covered in scorched smoke, shrouded in a red light, his eyes were like knives, and the whole person was like a demon from hell. Ding Qiliang of this image actually shocked the four red-clothed priests.

They took a step back in fear, while Ding Qiliang took a step forward.

This was something they had never imagined, three Six-Leaf Peak Realm plus one Seven-Leaf Realm Haotian Sect Priest were actually suppressed by a Four-Leaf Realm swordsman.

This swordsman withstood all their attacks without dodging or dodging, and every time he received a Haotian palm force, he also used a stronger sword qi.

Ding Qiliang moved his neck and said: "Your tricks are very powerful, it's good to use for cooking, kill people, and it's a little tender." ”

The four priests fought with Ding Qi for more than 100 rounds. From suppressing Ding Qiliang to being suppressed by Ding Qiliang. They thought that after withstanding so many attacks, Ding Qiliang should be at the limit, but they didn't expect to hear such a sentence.

Ding Qiliang turned around and left, and the four priests were stunned in place, not knowing whether to make another move. They were also injured in several battles, and they thought they would kill their opponents first, but at the moment, they were uncertain.

Ding Qiliang turned around before revealing his distorted face that was painful from the burning heat.

In fact, if it weren't for Ding Qiliang's strong will, he would have been unable to bear it a long time ago, and the flames of Haotian Palm Flame were divided into five stages, Red Flame, Blue Flame, Green Flame, White Flame, and Black Flame. The last two stages of fire are enough to melt metal, not to mention the human body. Even if it is a blue flame, its high temperature is definitely beyond the tolerance of ordinary humans. Dante Qiliang was extremely slow to feel pain in a state of no regrets, so he was able to endure it all the time, giving the other party the illusion of ignoring its hot temperature.

Only Ding Qiliang knew how terrible this Haotian Palm Inflammation was, even if the feeling of pain was almost closed, Ding Qiliang could always feel the strong pain devouring his perception. So he swung his knife frantically, trying to keep his composure on his face.

He succeeded in intimidating the four priests on the opposite side.

His mission is to protect the public and the scholars. The scholar who originally planned to escape was told that the umbrella was in the depths of the temple because of the public loss of Liuli, so they went to the depths of the temple.

And at this moment, the public loser glass has already got the umbrella.

It was the first time the scholar had seen this umbrella, although he had been listening to his father talk about how powerful the umbrella was when he was a child.

"Brother, with this, you don't need the big stupid cow outside to protect us, I can protect you." Gong Ruri said proudly.

"Why do you call him Big Stupid Cow too?" The scholar couldn't help but feel funny, after all, every time Feng Zhan called the cook like this, the cook would be angry.

"I don't know, he looks like a big stupid cow, hee-hee."

"True, but Big Dumb Cow is our friend, and always will be."

The two of them conversed as they left the temple to join the cook.

"It turns out that my brother has also had friends in the past six years."

"Well, I made a good deal, and now I'm not an imperial strategist, but the bookkeeper of the inn, and I've met a few very interesting people."

"What is the bookkeeper?"

"Probably the bookkeeper."

"Does that mean we're going to be rich?"

"That's hard to say, after all, this inn doesn't seem to have much business all year round."

"Sounds like a miserable look, brother."

"That's no way, you just think it's good, a good account room is not poor at the inn."

"My brother seems to like them very much."

Gong Lu Li looked at the scholar with wide eyes, the scholar's encounter began in the summer of this year, and it was precisely the summer of this year, the scholar and the public loss of Liuli cut off contact, so the public lost Liuli is really curious, in just a few months, what his brother has experienced, suddenly there are so many friends.

She was actually very happy, although she called the cook a big stupid cow, but Ding Qiliang's sentence that no one wanted to hurt Mr. and Xiao Liuli with him made her feel very secure.

After all, she is just a little girl, and of course she longs to be protected.

"Yes, they may be our family in the future. Ruri, you'll like them too. ”

"If my brother likes me, I like it."

Gongyi Ruri felt inexplicably happy, and she asked again:

"Is the person who rescued Dumb the shopkeeper of the inn?"

"That's right, he's a lazy shopkeeper."

"Brother, he seems to be clear." Gong Ruli suddenly said such a sentence.

The scholar was stunned for a moment, he always knew that the little girl had been thinking about Minglang who had been dead for so many years. He will not say anything to forget the past, because the scholar himself cannot forget Minglang.

"Ruri, do you remember what Minglang said at the end?"

Many years have passed, but every word before Minglang's death, the two brothers and sisters remember it clearly. And every time, when I recall that moment, no matter how long it takes, I can still feel the pain of death.

Gong Yu Liuli nodded, and unconsciously, tears welled up in the eyes of the little girl who were still smiling a moment ago. For countless nights, she would dream of that scene.

Dreaming of dying brightly with a smile, the last moment before death is a blessing to his brother.

Scholar, one day you will definitely meet someone who is willing to treat you as a brother, and you have to work hard to live until that person ......

Over the years, the scholar has never forgotten this sentence, and the same is true of the public loss Liuli, and even she looks forward to the appearance of that person more than the scholar.

The scholar gently rubbed Gongyi Liuli's hair, and said with a smile: "Don't cry Liuli, you should be happy for your brother and yourself." ”

Ruri raised his head and looked at his smiling brother.

"Because, that person has already waited."

Gong Ruri also smiled suddenly, like a summer flower that suddenly bloomed. The person who Ming Lang said before he died that he would treat his brother as a brother has already arrived.

"Liuli, if you are alive, you will definitely wait for good things. Death is another kind of sorrow, we are lucky to have lived until now, and we have waited for the good things in life. ”

Although there are some things that the scholar thinks should be done by the shopkeeper, the girl in front of him is too important to him, although this is a superfluous move, the scholar still asked.

"Back then, I said that I wanted to break away from the identity of the empire and be the freest person in the world, Liuli, now my brother lives like this, the inn will also be my brother's home, ...... are you willing to do"

"I do!"

Without waiting for the scholar to finish speaking, the little girl smiled and said her answer.

At the end of the temple corridor was a burly man covered in scorched smoke, and the cook Ding Qitael. The scholar and the public finally meet the cook.

"You two are too slow, sir, and if you ink a little more, I might be roasted." The cook complained.

"Yes, yes, I know, I will tell Ah Xiu, for the sake of your friends, you go up the knife mountain and down the sea of fire, well, it is the real sea of fire."

"It's worth it!" Ding Qi laughed twice.

"Let's go, leave Hongcheng first." The scholar said.

"What about the shopkeeper?" The cook asked.

"Don't worry, the current shopkeeper, unless the Emperor Star will be the head of the Nine Great Sects, the ordinary Nine Leaves Realm can't help him." The scholar is full of confidence in the shopkeeper.

"It turns out that Brother Chenhui is so strong." It was the public who spoke and lost the glass.

"That's right, but Xiao Liuli, let me tell you, the strongest person in the inn in the future will definitely be me!" The cook said proudly.

"Oh, I know Big Stupid Cow brother." Gong Ruri replied very seriously.

Ding Qiliang looked at the scholar and said indignantly: "I didn't expect you to be such a gentleman!" ”

The scholar shrugged innocently and said, "I can't blame me. This title was realized by Liuli herself. ”

Ding Qiliang: "......"

In the depths of the temple, the little girl's pleasant and crisp laughter was heard.

This is the winter of the thirtieth year of the Qin calendar, and on this day, the last of the three most powerful countries on the continent is finally involved in the battle, and on the same day, the last member of the Molou Inn has also arrived.
