Chapter Twenty-Six: Stopping the Holy Driver

The beacon tower in Shendu City has not risen wolf smoke for decades.

Tang Yun had just driven his horse out of the city for several miles, thinking that he had already attracted all the locusts, but the Shendu City had changed and stood out.

Wolf smoke is very common in the border army, the Great Zhou and the Northern Wilderness army fight all year round, the Northern Wilderness Iron Cavalry often disturbs the border, and the beacon tower that is plugged there has never been cut off from fireworks. It's just that this place is the hinterland of the Great Zhou, not a border pass, and if there is wolf smoke in the capital of a country, then something bad will happen.

The last time the Great Zhou was full of wolf smoke, it was the Northern Wilderness Iron Cavalry that invaded the Shendu, and Emperor Yang died on the city wall.

Tang Yun's heart became heavier and heavier, and the other party was really prepared.

At this moment, the two soldiers behind Tang Yun also followed, and when they saw the wolf smoke billowing in the distance, they couldn't guess what was going on.

Tang Yun said: "I want to go back to the divine capital, you two, when the locust demon disperses, then go back to the fortress." ”

The two soldiers looked at each other and said, "My lord, we will escort you back to the divine capital!" ”

There was a glimmer of light in the eyes of these two soldiers, Tang Yun knew that they also wanted to seize this opportunity and behave well in front of him.

"Okay, since you've made a decision, then come with me."

Tang Yun sighed in his heart, once he went to the Divine Capital, he would never be safe on the road. Seeking wealth and wealth in danger, this sentence has killed many people.

Without any more superfluous nonsense, Tang Yun's horse had already dimmed his eyes, and he fell to the ground snorting and panting, obviously unable to survive. Of the other two soldiers, only one of them had a good horse.

The two soldiers drew their knives from their waists at the same time, crouched under the pine trees, listened for a long time, and when there was no sound outside the woods, they rushed out at the same time.

Emerging from the pine forest, both soldiers breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The locust demons around seemed to have dispersed, and calm had returned to the surroundings. The two of them turned around, preparing to let Tang Yun come out.

Tang Yun was already riding on horseback at the moment, and suddenly noticed something strange coming from the ring, and shouted loudly: "Get out of the way!" ”

The voice had just fallen, but it was too late.

Several black shadows fell directly from the sky, and the long mouthparts clamped the shoulders of the two people, and dragged them up from the ground, and soon the two of them let out a miserable scream, and two heads fell from the sky, and blood poured down.

"Bastard!"

Tang Yun clenched his fists and looked at the two dead soldiers, his heart full of anger. He raised his horsewhip and rushed out of the pine forest.

As soon as the war horse came out of the pine forest, Tang Yun felt a gust of wind blowing behind him, blowing on his back, and then a strong qi rushed over.

Roar!

It was the roar of the locust demon.

They were still squatting on the trees, just to wait for Tang Yun to come out and give a fatal blow!

Tang Yun had already prepared, and when the wind blew behind him, the horsewhip he had been holding in his hand was raised, making an explosion in the air, flying into the air, and slamming a locust demon's body fiercely.

Call!

Several locust demons swooped down, ready to grab Tang Yun from his horse. The surface of their elongated feet is covered with a layer of tiny barbs that, once touched, can easily be dragged into the air.

Tang Yun's right hand tightly grasped the saddle, and suddenly his two feet left the stirrups, and one leaned over, turning directly under the horse. He was now lying on the horse's belly, and the locust demon above flew over, but pounced.

The rest of the locust demons scurried out in a frenzy, making strange screams, spreading their almost transparent wings, and buzzing echoes in the air.

Sou!

Tang Yun had a strong bow wrapped around his wrist, and he found a locust demon and sent it out, with a total of three arrows, all of which were shot at the locust demon's body. The locust demon screamed, and then fell straight to the ground.

The locust demons in the vicinity came one after another, and their bloodthirsty thirst completely overwhelmed the fear of death.

Tang Yun heard a shrill roar nearby, gritted his teeth and grabbed the edge of the saddle, and rode the horse again. It was a fine fast horse, and with a loud neigh, it was swept away on the official road.

……

On Suzaku Street, it was like complete chaos.

Lu Pengyuan was very calm, in such a situation, he still maintained his composure, commanded his soldiers to form a shield array, stopped on the street corner, and did not let any locust demon leave the street.

"Kill them all, not a single one will be left!"

Lu Pengyuan shouted in a deep voice, and the soldiers under his command held huge shields, stretched out rows of sharp knives in the shield array, and stepped out step by step.

The locust demon is very powerful, and can often knock down a group of soldiers with a single collision. However, as the number of soldiers around him continued to gather, it seemed that the locust demon had no way out.

Lu Pengyuan's hand clenched the reins, and only then did he realize that his palms were already full of sweat.

Since the accident happened, to the point where he is today, everything he has done is to prevent greater losses. However, his job is to prevent this accident from happening. So far, I don't know if the empress can open the net and let him go.

Because his mind had been wandering, he ignored the shouting around him, and finally, one of the lieutenants dared to push him.

Lu Pengyuan stared at Du Wei, but saw Du Wei pointing at the distance of Suzaku Long Street with trembling fingers.

The place where they are located is between the two squares of Guande and Xiuwen, and there is only one square away from the imperial capital. Because the imperial city is very large, even if you stand at the Dingding Gate, you can also see the world-famous imperial city.

At this moment, nine dragon flags were changed on the gate of the imperial city, swaggering back and forth.

That's the signal that the Son of Heaven is going to go out on patrol!

Lu Pengyuan's heart was beating wildly, he had calculated everything, but he never guessed that His Majesty would appear.

"Shoot the arrows, release the arrows, and kill all the monsters here!" Lu Pengyuan shouted loudly.

The soldiers of the right guard faithfully completed their task, and the rain of arrows quickly fell, instantly falling on the bodies of those locust demons, and the ground was full of pools of blood.

It seems that everything is under control.

"These are a few of them." Lu Pengyuan suddenly muttered.

It's like a powerful general, who suddenly feels lonely after being invincible after sweeping the enemy army.

He suddenly woke up because he remembered that there was more to this water and land puja than just one big altar. On the streets on both sides of Suzaku Long Street, there are also five outer altars such as Hokke Altar and Pure Land Altar!

In every outer altar, there are monks who preach the scriptures there.

In the distance, the national teacher Xuan Tan was still sitting upright, his eyes fixed on the locust demon who fell to the ground.

Lu Pengyuan rushed forward with red eyes, walked up to Xuan Tan, and asked sharply: "Is there still any, how many of them still have?" ”

Xuan Tan instead grabbed Lu Pengyuan's arm and said, "General, don't be fooled by the scene in front of you, their goal is the Son of Heaven!" ”

Xuan Tan's voice trembled a little as he spoke, and Lu Pengyuan stretched out his hand, only to find that his palms were full of blood at some point.

On Xuan Tan's belly, there is a dagger. A monk took advantage of the unpreparedness and stabbed the dagger into Xuan Tan's stomach.

"At this time, the blame lies with me, and I hope that the general will tell Your Majesty that you don't blame the Buddha Gate......" Xuan Tan's voice stopped abruptly, and he sat on the ground and passed away.

Lu Pengyuan didn't know if he heard Xuan Tan's words, he just knew that the other party's target was His Majesty!

He's going to stop the holy car before everyone else!
