Tomb of Impermanence Chapter 196: A Fork in the Road
Before Bai Wuyan left the Beast Ghost Clan's camp, he did not hesitate to drink the medicinal soup prepared for him by Honggu and boiled by Hu Meiniang. At this time, he had fully understood Honggu's intentions, this last bowl of medicinal soup was a pure awakening soup, and there was no trace of Wuli Sanshen Grass mixed in. This bowl of medicinal soup made Bai Wuyan feel refreshed, and many days of recuperation had actually made Bai Wuyan recover more than thirty percent of his mana, and he could already use the unique stunt Qimen Escape Spell for a short time.
Hu Meiniang knew that she couldn't keep Bai Wuyan, so she accompanied him to the front camp.
At this time, Honggu had already led the tens of thousands of zombie troops in the front camp to attack, leaving only the Meishan Eight Protector Lu Min with a small number of beast and ghost soldiers to guard the camp. Seeing Hu Meiniang and Bai Wuyan coming together, Ah Lu was surprised: "Hey, why didn't Miss Hu accompany Brother Bai to recuperate in the back?"
Hu Meiniang sighed and said, "Your big brother Bai is concerned about the safety of the red girl, and if you have to go to help, you can't persuade you." ”
Ah Lu said worriedly: "But Big Brother Bai is in poor health, fighting for his life on the battlefield, and it is changing rapidly, how can Big Brother Bai go on an adventure?"
Bai Wuyan said: "It's okay. Bai has experienced countless dangers and battles in his life, how can he be afraid of today's battle? Not to mention that the Northern Ghost Domain is the place under Bai's jurisdiction, I am most familiar with all the scenery and landforms here, if I am by Yuan Dashuai and the Red Girl, I can guide them to avoid getting lost in the valley, and smoothly cross the Beiyin Mountain Canyon to the capital city. ”
Hu Meiniang said: "Ah Lu girl, I think Brother Bai is reasonable, and it is good to let him give advice by Yuan Shouzuo's side." Please also ask the deer girl to help him. ”
Ah Lu said: "It's just that if Big Brother Bai has something on the battlefield, wouldn't we live up to the Red Girl's entrustment?"
Bai Wuyan said: "I saw the smoke of the Despair Plains suddenly rising, and the ghost mist filled the sky, even if there is an army of zombies, I am afraid that I will not be able to easily break the soul conjuring array of the Spirits and Ecstasy Fog Demons." How could I let Honggu go on an adventure alone? I had already taken the herbs left by Honggu, and I felt that my mana had recovered a lot, and I could cast my Qimen Escape spell to avoid the enemy's attacks, so there was no problem in just trying to protect myself. ”
Ah Lu saw that Bai Wuyan had made up his mind, so he had to say: "Okay, then okay, if Big Brother Bai can use the flag gate to hide his body, Ah Lu will take Big Brother Bai to the battlefield." ”
Bai Wuyan said happily: "Thank you for the deer protector!" summoned the gossip dragon whisker banner in his hand, and with a move against the wind, the "Flag Gate Escape" spell was cast, and he turned into a faint almost invisible figure, hidden under the flag.
Ah Lu turned into a real body, turned into a tall and beautiful five-colored deer, the plum blossom spots on the whole body conjured red, orange, blue, blue, purple five colors, colorful and dazzling, said: "The red girl has been gone for a long time, Brother Bai can come to my back, so that you can speed up the foot, catch up with the front army of Yuan Shouza, and you can also be protected by my five-color divine light, so as not to be injured accidentally." ”
Bai Wuyan said gratefully: "Miss Lao bothered!" flew and stepped on the back of the deer.
Hu Meiniang said: "Master Bai, Miss Lu, please inform Yuan Shouzao that Meiniang is stationed in the camp here, so that he can rest assured that he will kill the enemy in front." Be careful on the battlefield and take care!"
The five-colored deer hissed, raised its four hooves, and rushed out of the camp gate, heading for the plain of despair shrouded in billowing mist.
Bai Wuyan rode on the back of Ah Lu as if he had nothing, but he felt that bursts of mist came to his face, wetting his face and clothes, as if flying close to the ground, indeed the five-colored deer traveled extremely fast, and the man and deer were one, and in a blink of an eye, he came to the place where the two armies fought on the ancient battlefield of the Desperate Plains.
But I saw blood all around the ground, and the grass was overgrown, but there were countless charred dead leaves, and some pierced bamboo branches crawling among the grass. There were no more people on the battlefield, and puffs of gunpowder smoke spread everywhere on the plains of despair, looking like a scene of desolation.
Ah Lu said: "Big Brother Bai, it looks like the war here is over?"
Bai Wuyan said: "It seems to be." This is the prairie, I don't know where all this bamboo comes from?"
Ah Lu said worriedly: "It seems that it is the bamboo demon on our Ten Thousand Beasts Barbarian Bamboo Yun Peak, have they also come to the battlefield?" But it seems that their true bodies have been killed a lot." ”
Bai Wuyan said: "Well, but don't worry, I think it's probably Yuan Shouzuo who won, otherwise we will encounter the remnants of their retreat." Now this place is empty, and only the smoke of gunpowder remains, which is just a sign that the army of the beast and ghost clan has taken advantage of the victory to pursue and kill the enemy. ”
Ah Lu was always convinced by Bai Wuyan, and when he heard him say this, his heart immediately felt relieved, and said: "If we win, it would be great, we had better catch up with the moment when the three armies celebrate." Let's hurry up!" Continuing to gallop, the wind swept through this ancient battlefield.
I don't know how long I ran, the five-colored deer has come to the edge of the plain of despair, and tall and majestic mountains appear in front of me.
Ah Lu came to the mouth of the valley between the cliffs, sniffed with his nose, and said: "The ghost aura here is pervasive, the smell of beasts is strong, and our army of beasts and ghosts must have passed through here." ”
Bai Wuyan looked up and looked around, only to see that the stone walls on both sides of the valley mouth were already charred black soil, and the trees and weeds on the half-slope also showed traces of being burned by the flames. Bai Wuyan said: "Honggu, they must have been here, you see that there are traces of fire everywhere here." ”
The five-colored deer slowed down and slowly entered the valley mouth. The surrounding fog had lifted, and the scene was becoming clearer and clearer in the dark light.
Soon a three-way intersection appeared. Ah Lu stopped and asked, "Brother Bai, there is a fork in the road here, how should I go?"
Bai Wuyan pondered for a moment and said: "The three forks here are a maze, it turns out that there should be an ecstasy fog demon stationed here, one of the roads leads to the capital city, one road leads to the wall fighting cliff, and the other road leads to the abyss of ghost sorrow. These three paths do not have a fixed orientation on weekdays, and they can change at any time with the ghost fog obscuring technique laid by the Ecstasy Mist Demon. Only the human ghosts who are guided by the customs clearance guide of the capital city can be guided by the ecstasy fog demon to the right path and reach the place they want to go. ”
Ah Lu nodded and said, "At this time last year, the five protectors of Meishan once crossed the Plain of Despair, and from here they went to the direction of the Bidou Cliff and entered the Yin and Yang Realm of Huangquan Road. They seem to have gotten the way to clear the city. ”
Bai Wuyan was stunned for a moment, and said in his heart: "It turns out that the beast and ghost clan has already had a premeditated plan, when the five monsters of Meishan appeared in Jinji Mountain last year, wasn't it when Hei Wuxin died in battle?
Ah Lu said: "I only heard that it was the Ten Thousand Beasts Venerable who personally gave the guide to clear the customs, if it came from, I don't know." The Ten Thousand Beast Venerable has a lot of insight into the first, and no one can beat it, and our entire clan admires it tightly, so everyone obeys his orders very much. ”
