44. Secret door
The old man sighed and replied, "I hope the two generals will forgive me, all I have done here is to protect this oasis and protect my people." As for concealing and deceiving you, it is indeed the fault of the little old man. But the situation has been critical all the way, if it weren't for the two generals who led the encirclement army to encircle and suppress, our troops would have been wiped out at this moment.
When he returned, the reason why Xiao Lao'er secretly reached an agreement with that Lao Yi first was because he was really helpless.
At that time, he entered this formation, and I estimated that even if we all joined forces to encircle and kill, there was no certainty of victory, so I had no choice but to agree to his request.
Fortunately, at the critical moment, I finally found a glimmer of opportunity, so I immediately took the risk, and fortunately I got lucky. β
That Zhang Luo was also sitting in the banquet hall at the moment, his whole body was wrapped in bandages, and he chuckled helplessly, "I said, Dad, you even calculated my own son, and you almost killed me on the spot." β
He Biling pondered for a moment, he didn't expect that his various criticisms would be dismissed by this old man one by one, and his actions before and after were wiped out without revealing anything.
But he was not reconciled, and continued to question, "I still have one last question, why do you cultivate to break through two great realms in a row when you suddenly attack, this is almost a miracle, I really can't think of any way to do it, if you can have this ability, why don't you take him down in one fell swoop when that Lao Yi enters this oasis, and drag it out at the end before taking risks."
Old man Zhang sighed lightly, "Alas, I can only say that this is the power of the Yuanmo Alliance. This kind of power can only be used once, and it also has a huge backlash against Xiao Lao'er. Don't hide it from the general and Brother Shi, this time General Shi will not condemn me, I am afraid that my life will not be long. Besides, the little old man of the drawing is also from the old man of Mengnahanshan, and I still don't know what this drawing is.
Maybe Brother He thinks that Lao Yi and Jin Lun'er are dead, and there is no proof of death. But as I said, now my people are saved. If General Shi and you feel that I have been fooled, then please take it down, behead it or escort it to General Chuanshi, and Xiao Lao'er will have no complaints."
Seeing that Old Man Zhang was like this, Zhang Luo glanced at General Xu Zhanbiao, and was afraid that Deputy General Shi would really pull his father out and cut him in anger, so he quickly stood up,
Saluted to the two generals and said: "Two generals, Zhang Luo's promise to you has been fulfilled, and most of the more than 10,000 troops that I have finally gathered and the five thousand war cavalry borrowed from General Xu have been consumed.
If the two generals read that Zhang Luo has no meritorious work and hard work this time, please let my father go, so that Zhang Luo can heal his father's injuries well. I, Zhang Luo, am willing not to take all the credit, and use it in exchange for my father's life."
Old man Zhang, like this original unscrupulous son, turned out to be like this, his nose was sour, and he sighed: "Luo'er, why are you so troubled, you finally jumped out of this fire pit, don't jump back again, follow the two generals, follow the two generals, follow the court, Fang is the right way, and you will have a good future."
Zhang Luo knelt down in front of Old Man Zhang with a thud, and whimpered, "Dad, whether it was when I ran away in a negative mood and went out with the spiritual cultivators of the whole clan, or later flashed around in this crack, and continued to grow the team. In order to make my father look at me, in order to get your affirmation, thinking that one day you will be proud to have a son like me, if you die, then what is the point of me doing all this"
The old man also fell to his knees, hugged Zhang Luo and cried: "Luo'er, all this is my father's fault, how I don't know your heart." It's just that the father's incompetence can't give you more help, but it will drag you down, and the father wanted to drive you out of the tribe back then, but it was also for your good."
Seeing Zhang Luo's behavior like this, Xu Zhanbiao did not doubt that the reason why he was able to stand on this southern frontier with a partial army and not fall down has always maintained enough strength in the base camp of the Yuanmo Alliance, and has always taken suspicious prudence and clear rewards and punishments as the first priority. He doesn't have the certainty of hitting the ground and never takes risks. In the same way, he never hesitates to reward those who are caged.
In addition to the 5,000 cavalry he lent out in this battle, the 20,000 troops he held in his hands were not damaged at all, but he won such a great victory, which is really the credit of this Zhang Luo. If at this time, the meritorious person is punished for this trumped-up crime, and there is no justification for it.
He immediately nodded to the deputy general Shi and said, "This battle is a great victory, thanks to the merits of this Zhang Luo's father and son, General Shi, look"
Deputy Shi Kuan saw that the two father and son had a deep relationship, and his heart was also quite moved, and he immediately said loudly, "What General Xu said is that your father and son are deep in their hearts and shrewd in seeing things, not only is there nothing wrong with this battle, but there are two meritorious people, please get up, Shi will definitely ask General Chuanshi and the court for you."
Zhang Luo and Old Man Zhang looked stunned, and then their faces were happy, "General Shi, this is true"
Shi Fukuan's face was stunned, and he immediately laughed and said, "Our general Chuanshi has always been magnanimous, and he can tolerate people who can't be tolerated in the world, I think I was just an old general in Xunyang City, facing the siege of the Purple Lotus rebels, and even almost abandoned the city and fled." But General Chuanshi abandoned his previous suspicions, and only then did Shi have today. If our Xunzi Battalion is so unclear about rewards and punishments, how can we win the trust of the people, and how can we calm the rebellion of the Yuanmo Alliance and recover this windy wasteland."
When the old man and Zhang Luo heard this, they were relieved, and the two stood up with each other.
Xu Zhanbiao also immediately smiled at Zhang Luo's father and son, "Right now, I think the most important thing for us is to follow the clues to track down the array power that has been hiding in the shadows, and then he will dig out the main force of the Yuanmo Alliance in one fell swoop."
The old man was also full of smiles, "Yes, yes, it is the two generals who are far-sighted, and they will definitely be able to"
"Slow"
Just when the old man returned to his former sleek demeanor, and the sound of sycophants was endless, Han Bo, who had been standing beside Shi Fukuan and was silent, suddenly hit him with words.
Han Bo's voice came abruptly, and the whole audience was stunned
Seeing that the two generals had already said that their father was fine, this Han Bo was growing branches again, his face immediately sank, and he asked coldly: "What, Mr. Han has a different opinion!?" β
Vice General Shi was afraid that the two of them would be unhappy, so he immediately coughed lightly and asked Han Bo: "Xiao Xingzi, you have been involved in this battle, and you have bitten the traces of the demon man of the array several times, what new discoveries have you made to find the demon of the array!?" β
Han Bo saw that Vice Admiral Shi's words were a little blunt, as if he didn't want to stop caring about this old man's calculations. He didn't dare to collide, so he hurriedly took a deep look and replied: "General Yu, thinking of finding that array power, I think the key to this is on Patriarch Zhang!" β
Zhang Luo snorted coldly: "Why, the two generals said that Daddy is fine." Until now, Mr. Han still thinks that my father is really the black hand behind the scenes, and he is involved with that demon disciple!? β
Han Bo smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "Of course, Patriarch Zhang is not the real mastermind behind the scenes, on the contrary, he is also coerced by this person. And that captor has always been with us, right here in this ballroom! β
As soon as Han Bo's words came out, he was shocked!
It was Vice General Shi who reacted first, and immediately shouted, and a team of five hundred Xunzi clans had surrounded the entire banquet hall and watched everyone in it. At the same time, he also secretly carried a gun, was on guard, and intentionally or unintentionally protected Han Bo in his domain.
This Han Bo is deeply valued by General Chuanshi, and it is very important to dig out the real mastermind behind the scenes and catch the big array, but Han Bo cannot afford to lose.
When Xu Zhanbiao heard this, his already calm face also changed drastically, and he immediately shouted violently, and then transferred a large number of sergeants, filling the banquet hall to the brim.
He lowered his face and asked Han Bo: "I have heard that Han Xiaoyou has an outstanding talent in spirit refining, didn't he find anything!?" β
The old man also sighed and asked: "Xiao Engong's words, the more I listen to Xiao Lao'er, the more confused I become, you said that I was coerced, who in this case can have the ability to make such a big situation under the noses of the two generals!?" And it won't be detected by your spiritual eyes!? β
Han Bo smiled and asked back, "Oh!?" When did the patriarch know that I had a spiritual purpose!? I remember never telling the patriarch, and the people around me never spread the word about it!? β
"This ......"
Seeing that the patriarch Zhang was speechless for a while, Han Bo couldn't help but sneer, and continued: "In addition to this spiritual eye, does that patriarch know that in addition to being able to see the direction of the spiritual veins between heaven and earth, and also possessing this soul dementoring technique, no one can escape my tracking!?"
Old man Zhang was stunned for a moment and asked in surprise, "What!?" Soul Magic!? β
Han Bo let out a long sigh, shook his head and said, "That's it!" Since Patriarch Zhang didn't know that I had this soul dementoring technique, then everything made sense. β
Old man Zhang asked, "What do you mean by this?" β
Han Bo shook his head and said, "It's a pity! In fact, until just now, I was still suspecting that the mastermind behind this was you, Patriarch Zhang. But this real mastermind still has reservations, and hasn't given you all the details of meβ"
Old man Zhang's face changed drastically: "What, Xiao Engong is deceiving Xiao Lao'er!?" β
Han Bo nodded and said with a smile: "It's not a fraud, it's just that I want to verify it one last time." Ever since I met with Patriarch Zhang with the team of He Shi and entered this oasis spirit array, Patriarch Zhang has always been in a state of disgrace, although every time I am persuaded by your reasoning, if I look back at them one by one, there are too many unreasonable points.
Although you covered it all up very well and convinced me again. But you overlooked one place that eventually made me figure out the ins and outs. β
"That place!?"
"It's the secret door!!"
"Secret door?" Zhang Luo asked for no reason: "What secret door!?" Daddy, why have you never told me about it? β
Han Bo smiled slightly: "Although General Zhang grew up in this spirit array oasis since he was a child, this secret door only suddenly existed today, so naturally you haven't heard of it!" β
"Daddy, what the hell is going on!?"
Old man Zhang let out a long sigh: "Alas, Luo'er, don't ask-"
Han Bo shook his head and continued: "Patriarch Zhang is bent on the survival of his subordinates, and he can even sacrifice anyone, including his own life, for this! I never doubted that. But it is precisely this that makes this mastermind behind the scenes exposed. β
"What I want to ask is that since there is a small secret door in this big array, why didn't the patriarch transfer the crowd out early, but waited until the most important moment of life and death to activate it!? The only explanation is that Patriarch Zhang has no means to open this secret door, and this mastermind behind the scenes has been threatening you with the lives of your entire peopleβ"
Seeing that his father seemed to be silent, Zhang Luo had already admitted it, and immediately hurriedly replied: "Daddy is reluctant to give up this oasis, and he doesn't need that secret door until the last moment, which is also very reasonable!" In this troubled world, once the base is lost, these old and weak women and children of our clan are only afraid of nine deaths. β
Han Bo smiled slightly and replied: "General Zhang is right, presumably the two generals will also think that it is reasonable for Patriarch Zhang to do this." But you've all overlooked one thing, so I'm going to have an ability to set up this formation! As soon as I entered this spiritual array, I have been carefully investigating this spiritual array, and I have never discovered the existence of this small secret door.
Moreover, my soul-searching technique has never failed to pass on those who are comparable to my spiritual cultivation. Every time you use Spiritualism to probe your soul's fluctuations, you've never had that option when considering the safety of your tribe. But it was just when these three armies were knocking on the pass that you made a hasty decision and temporarily arranged such a retreat. Obviously, the only person who has such control over this spirit array can only be the real array power!
If you really do what you say, your sudden explosion in cultivation realm can really only be used once. Then the person who coerced you can only be her! This real man behind the mess that led me into this mess from the start, and played all of us in the palm of our handsβ"
Han Bo said, pointing his finger at the red flameless who had been holding a leg of mutton in the hall and gnawing violently!
Before Han Bo's words fell, a team of officers and soldiers from Xunzi Zhanyong and Xu Zi Battalion had already roared up, surrounded the Red Flameless Regiment, tied her firmly, and stabbed her on the table.
This little girl didn't struggle, but she was still ignorant, and shouted: "Big brother, what are you talking about!?" Big brother, these bad guys are bullying me, you don't protect Wuyan anymore!? β
Han Bo let out a long sigh: "Alas, I don't know if your real name is really Red Flameless, but you don't have to pretend anymore." You have taken advantage of my soft-heartedness several times and made me fall into your layout. And every time you are by my side, my soul dementorship will inexplicably deviate, at first I suspected that Patriarch Zhang secretly intended to hide his cultivation, but I didn't expect it to be your ghost. This time, I won't fall for you again!! β
Red Flameless was crying: "Big brother...... Big brother, are you really not protecting Flameless!? β
Han Bo was upset by her call, his face changed, and he said, "I think the box of 'Cloud Shadow Chasing Light Slash' that Patriarch Zhang threw out at the end was given to him by you!?" I heard Brother Lin Yuanjue talk about it casually, he said that the maker of this secret weapon has a habit of making it, and in order not to waste materials, he has always made two at the same time. I guess this other one should be on you right now!? β
