Chapter 287: Back to the old business
Although her heart was full of desire to complain, Lu Xiao finally "rescued" the strangely dressed woman from the hands of the monster.
"Woo~ Someone is finally here."
The woman in the monk's robe with a hot body but a delicate face was still sobbing, and her eyes were full of anticipation and staring at Lu Xiao tightly.
"Ha~"
Lu Xiao patted her forehead helplessly: "Let me ask, who are you?" Why wander alone in the wilderness of death? ”
"Suck ~"
The woman in the monk's robe sobbed at the end, the expression on her face became serious, and she solemnly bowed to Lu Xiao with her hands together.
"The poor monk's name is Xuanzang, from the Tang Dynasty in the Eastern Soil."
'Sure enough, it's you, Juru Demon Monk......
To be honest, Lu Xiao was reluctant to admit that this improperly dressed woman was the Tang monk who had gone through nine hundred and eighty-one difficulties on the way to learn scriptures in the west, but at least in the world view of Xingyue, she was indeed Xuanzang who had completed the journey of learning scriptures and became a heroic spirit.
"Uh~ Okay, Master Xuanzang."
Lu Xiao scratched her head, her brows twitched a little and asked, "Please answer my question, why did you appear alone in the wilderness?" ”
Lu Xiao's words seemed to hit the demon monk's words, and for half an hour, Lu Xiao had been listening to her storytelling.
I don't know if it was the words of a parallel world that Tang Seng affected this female Sanzang, she said a lot of crackling, and it was nothing more than two or three pieces of useful information in summary.
Sanzang once traveled to the holy capital established by the Lion King, and after leaving the holy capital, he took his apprentices to the edge of the peculiar point to inspect, and was pursued by the knights of Suzheng in the wilderness.
Her apprentice was unfortunately arrested in order to cover Sanzang's retreat, and she escaped in a panic, but was unfortunately found by a group of hungry monsters.
The apprentices in Sanzang's mouth were not the four famous companions who had learned from the scriptures, but the new apprentices she had recently accepted at this peculiar point, and it was said that the other party was also a heroic spirit.
Because of his perennial actions with his apprentices, Sanzang is inexplicably endowed with a character of being afraid of loneliness, and when he acts alone, he will become a waste material that can only cry, which is why Lu Xiao received a call for help.
It had been more than two days since Lu Xiao left Dongzhi Village, and it was obviously a waste of precious time to send Sanzang back and set off again.
When Lu Xiao asked Sanzang if she wanted to act with her temporarily, she was surprised to learn that her apprentice was also imprisoned in the Round Table Fortress.
"That's a little easier, let's go together."
……
Sanzang, who was accompanied, finally got rid of the previous unreliable crybaby state, and along the way, she told Lu Xiao about the various hardships she encountered in the process of learning scriptures in the West.
Anyway, the road was boring, so Lu Xiao simply listened to the story and let Sanzang tell the revised version of Journey to the West.
Knowing that Lu Xiao was an overhead heroic spirit from modern China, Sanzang's attitude became more enthusiastic, and he would ask Lu Xiao about the situation of modern China from time to time.
When he arrived near the Round Table Fortress, Lu Xiao put his finger in front of his mouth and motioned for Sanzang to be silenced.
Lu Xiao's eyes glowed with golden light slightly, and he turned on his eagle eye vision to scan the structure of this fortress.
"There are about 120 soldiers in the fortress, and the total number of people is nearly a thousand, including the logistics personnel in the fortress."
There are only a small number of health reactions in the large dungeons under the fortress, and the knights of the Righteous usually kill refugees on the spot, rarely leaving prisoners behind.
"Aletheia, help me calculate the best route."
Aletea: Wait a minute. ”
Under Sanzang's suspicious gaze, Aletheia's electronic soul body separated from Lu Xiao's body, carving out the best infiltration route on the ground in front of the two of them.
Sanzang asked curiously, "Lu Xiao, you also domesticated evil spirits in your body?" Need me help you get over? ”
Lu Xiao rolled her eyes: "No, Alethea is not an evil spirit, using your worldview to explain, it should be regarded as a guardian spirit." ”
With the best route map in mind, Lu Xiao waved his hand to wipe out the traces on the ground.
"Sanzang, you wait here first, and then come and join me when you get my signal."
Sanzang folded his hands and blessed Lu Xiao: "I know, may the Buddha bless you." ”
'The Enlightened? Forget it. ’
Waving her hand to Sanzang, Lu Xiao gradually disappeared in front of her.
Silently sneaking into the gate of the fortress, the two soldiers guarding the gate were chatting quietly in boredom, and Lu Xiao temporarily stopped to eavesdrop on their conversation.
"Have you heard? The king, who was far away in the holy capital, seemed to have received another powerful boost. ”
"I heard that, but are you sure it's a boost? How do I feel that it is an unstable factor that may betray the king at any time. ”
"This is also a helpless thing, after a tragic internal struggle, the Knights of the Round Table are now only a few people left, in order to deal with the mysterious heroic spirit who can suppress Gao Wenqing head-on, the king can only choose her."
"But is this really good, that person is secretly ...... the round table"
"Shhhh Shut up, saying bad things about that person behind your back may be perceived, do you want to die? ”
"Besides, the current king is not the noble knight king who cannot tolerate stains, I believe that the lion king, who is as powerful as a god and has a transcendent mentality, will definitely be able to control that person."
Thinking of the legend about that man, the soldier shuddered all over his body and did not dare to continue gossiping behind his back, and the conversation between the two ended there.
Lu Xiao, who was hiding in the shadows, frowned, "She? ’
The situation has changed because of my intervention, but who is the man in the mouth of these two soldiers? It's not going to be Magic Melly......
Shaking his head and shaking off the messy thoughts, Lu Xiao quietly moved behind the two soldiers, and the two Hidden Blades stabbed into their hearts at the same time.
The slight screams were muffled by the Rune Silence Spell that Lu Xiao had arranged in advance, and Lu Xiao threw the two corpses behind the nearby rocks.
Before officially entering the fortress, you can use spells at will, but you can't be so presumptuous inside the fortress, Lu Xiao can already feel the magic power covered in the fortress to perceive the enchantment, and once you use the spell, it will trigger an alarm.
It seems that we will have to go back to our old business for the time being. ’
Climbing the city wall to assassinate one by one, Lu Xiao only relied on his physical ability to solve all the guards on the side of the main entrance, and also cleared the obstacles to the dungeon by the way.
Returning to the city wall, she carefully beckoned to Sanzang, and Lu Xiao used a rope hook to pick her up from under the city wall.
"Hurry up and rescue the captives before the guards find the bodies."
At the critical moment, Sanzang was not as unreliable as before, and followed Lu Xiao deep into the dungeon without saying a word.
There was hardly any breath of life in the empty dungeon, and only two "men" were imprisoned in this fortress taken from the Crusaders.
One of them was Sanzang's newly recruited apprentice, and Lu Xiao and Sanzang first found his cell during the search.
Contrary to Sanzang's expectations, she thought that her new apprentice would be very uncomfortable in prison, but when the two found their target, the other party did not feel the sense of detention at all, but lay leisurely on the straw in the cell with Erlang's legs crossed.
When he saw Sanzang, the heroic spirit dressed in typical Japanese ancient attire looked a little surprised.
"Oh? Isn't this Sanzang, I didn't expect you to find someone to save me so quickly, I thought I would have to rest for a while. ”
"Stupid apprentice! What do you mean by this appearance of no tension at all? Come out and get out of here with us! ”
"Ha~"
With a lazy yawn, the Japanese heroic spirit turned over and stood up, greeting Lu Xiao with a hearty smile on his face.
"I don't know who Your Excellency is, but thank you for helping this fool who confesses his apprentice to save me."
"My name is Omoto Tai, a heroic spirit from the Far Eastern Island Country, please take care of me in the future."
