Chapter 328: Empty
When Lu Cheng and the others left Baiyun Mountain and rushed to the military camp of Liang Chuanqi, a small ceremony was being held in the town tavern at the foot of Baiyun Mountain.
The eliminated youths gathered in the basement of the tavern, facing a glowing circle with great reverence.
They made a gesture of prostration, chanting words into the mouth of the magic array.
"These days, we have more and more believers. ”
Seeing the devotees in the basement so devout, the tavern keeper smiled with satisfaction.
This basement is not small, and more than 20 believers are praying in front of the circle, and there is still a lot of space behind them.
At the entrance of the basement, the shopkeeper and a black-robed man were looking at these devout believers, and this time was indeed a great gain.
"At this rate, after the qualifiers, we will be able to attract at least 100 young people. ”
The shopkeeper smiled very proudly, and he was very skillful in this demagogic trick.
Being able to recruit a group of young blood for the sect was indeed a source of pride for him.
"Recently, the Blue Dragon Palm Sect has recognized our work, and they have made updated progress in the cultivation of the Primordial Demon Worm. ”
The man in black said, patting the tavern keeper on the shoulder with some approval, and continued:
"There is no shortage of high-level forces in the sect, what we lack is a wide range of believers and supporters. ”
"If we can get more people to believe in the denomination, we can achieve great things. ”
The voice of this black-robed man was exactly the same as the black-robed man he had seen in Wan Li at that time.
"What Master Walker said is very true, I will definitely attract more young people for the sect!"
After the shopkeeper finished speaking, he showed his loyalty to the sect to the black-robed man, and the black-robed man seemed to be very satisfied with this loyalty.
"Continue to grow the sect, I haven't been able to go out and around a lot lately. ”
"Lu Cheng should have been aware of what happened yesterday, and he is not easy to deal with now. ”
"At least for me, it's not the time to make an enemy of him. ”
"So, you have to be careful. ”
The black-robed man left the basement after some advice, and the shopkeeper looked at this group of powerful young people and rubbed his hands with satisfaction.
He then left the basement and returned to the tavern in peace.
"Not only did the soldiers set up guard on the official road disappear, but there was no trace of the patrol soldiers along the way. ”
The expressions of Lu Cheng and General Shen Qing were very solemn, and Tang Ke's light technique was better, so Tang Ke walked directly in front of the two of them.
Along the way, I didn't see any soldiers on duty at all, as if the soldiers of the Liangchuan Banner had disappeared out of thin air.
"The strength of Liang Chuanqi's subordinate soldiers is still relatively good, although there is no resident general here to lead the troops, but that Adjutant Luo still has a certain level. ”
Shen Qing recalled the situation of this Liangchuan Banner's disciples, and couldn't help frowning.
This kind of situation of not occupying people at the sentry post has really never happened, not to mention that Lieutenant General Mao Zhuo should be in Liangchuan Banner at this time for a unified order, even if there is no Lieutenant General present, this situation cannot happen.
Standing guard on duty, daily patrol is the duty of a soldier, and now he doesn't even keep his duty?
It's definitely what went wrong.
"It's really evil!"
Tang Ke's figure suddenly appeared beside the two, and he looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.
"I poked seven or eight sentry forward, but there was not even a human figure. ”
"I've also looked around the nearby villages, and the villagers are still there, but they say they haven't seen any soldiers lately. ”
Definitely something went wrong!
"I suddenly have a bad premonition, are the three of us really going to the barracks of Liangchuan Banner?"
Tang Er asked, which could make him have a bad premonition, and it could be seen that something incomprehensible had indeed happened.
"Go! Even if you don't get involved in this matter, I have to find out about it!"
General Shen Qing said categorically, it is her duty as a lieutenant general to do this matter of Zhongzhou Mu.
Regarding General Shen Qing's attitude, Tang Ke nodded in agreement, no matter what, his hidden family Tang Sect is also a member of Zhongzhou Mu, and it is necessary to do something.
Lu Cheng thought for a moment and took a deep breath.
"I think things are going wrong, so it's natural to go, but we have to do some preparation first. ”
After saying that, Lu Cheng directly took out the soul crossing flag, and said something in his mouth.
Immediately, the door of the ghost world opened, and the old ghost in golden armor walked out of the gate of the ghost world.
"Yin ghosts?"
Although Shen Qing had heard that Lu Cheng could command the Yin Ghosts, it was also the first time she had seen such a magical creature.
Lu Cheng nodded, the golden-armored old ghost rode a very stylish skeleton war horse, and the long knife in his hand also exuded a very shining light.
"Meet you, this is the old ghost of Golden Armor, one of the seven ghost kings of the ghost world. ”
Lu Cheng introduced that although Tang Ke had seen the ghost mantle, it was the first time he had really seen this ghost king wearing gold and silver.
"Ahem, it's a little nervous, hehe. ”
Tang Ke scratched his head, and when he saw the old ghost in golden armor, he was indeed taken aback by this exaggerated momentum.
Because this golden-armored old ghost is different from the ghost, the ghost can't make people think of the appearance of a yin ghost at a glance, but this golden-armored old ghost really doesn't look like a ghost.
If you throw it on the battlefield, it will be a brave and good general!
"Let's talk about polite words later, let's talk about serious things to the old ghost in golden armor first. ”
Lu Cheng told the old ghost of the golden armor the news of the disappearance of the soldiers of the Liangchuan Banner, and the old ghost directly waved the long knife twice:
"This matter is wrapped up in me, who else can I do if I go a thousand miles and ride alone?"
The Golden Armor Old Ghost is the fastest of the seven Ghost Kings, and generally speaking, the talent of the Yin Ghost determines that they are not good at speed.
However, the skeleton war horse under the crotch of the old ghost in golden armor gave him very strong mobility and speed.
Compared with the ghost mantis and the red pupil mountain king, the golden armor old ghost can not only resist, but also fight, and his brain is still much better than that of the mountain king.
This kind of mobility can allow them to quickly go to the military camp of Liangchuan Banner.
A skeletal war horse, but it can take four people to gallop.
"Qingqing, I think I should be asked to put my arms around your waist. ”
Tang Er's master felt very unhappy, why did he sit in front of the golden armor old ghost with Lu Cheng, while Shen Qing sat in the back and supported the waist of the golden armor old ghost.
This old monster, is it possible that he can still have a waist to be supported?
This made Tang Er's family a little unhappy, and he finally had a chance to have a close contact with General Shen Qing, and as a result, this Lu Cheng was disturbed alive.
"You know a fart, I'm here to help you!"
Lu Cheng was very unhappy, and there was always a feeling of suffering a loss when Tang Ke hugged his waist.
"Also, we're here for business, not to take you out for a ride. ”
"I know, I know Lu Daqincha, don't be crooked, let's go quickly, my back is a little cold." ”
The death qi of this old ghost of the Jin family can be exuded through the armor, and Tang Ke can resist the invasion of death qi, but he will inevitably feel a little cold.
"Sit down, and let's go. ”
After the old ghost of the golden armor finished speaking, he directly kicked the stomach of the skeleton war horse, the speed of this war horse was extremely fast, even the three god realms were a little dazzled by the speed of this war horse.
In less than a stick of incense, they directly attacked more than thirty miles and arrived outside the military camp of Liangchuan Banner.
"This is too fast, why didn't you call him out when we came back from Tianzhu and Ximo?"
"Because it's expensive......"
Lu Cheng got off the horse with some pain, and the old ghost in golden armor showed a smug expression at him.
"Boss Lu, Tong Su is not bullied, 300,000 taels. ”
"It's okay, 10,000 taels of land a mile, if it's not really in a hurry, I'm willing to call you out......"
Lu Cheng directly took out a silver ticket of 300,000 taels and handed it to the old ghost of the golden armor, and the old ghost of the golden armor took the silver ticket with a hand.
After General Shen Qing dismounted, he looked at the dead and silent military camp, revealing a solemn expression.
Lu Cheng slowly released soul fluctuations to perceive the existence in this military camp, but there was no breath of life in this entire military camp.
"It's just hell, such a big barracks, not a single living person can't be found?"
The three of them entered the barracks and searched for a long time, searched every camp tent, but they didn't see anyone.
All the soldiers of this Liangchuan Banner disappeared as if they had evaporated from the world!
"Not only are the people gone, but there is no trace of a fight at all, as if they just disappeared out of thin air. ”
General Shen Qing carefully observed everything in this barracks, and this was not the most strange.
In the tent, there was still an unfinished meal, which indicates that it happened at noon.
How is it possible for people to evaporate en masse while eating?
Moreover, there was not a trace of blood at all.
"It's very spooky, very spooky, and, it's creepy. ”
Tang Ke scratched his head, he really couldn't figure out how the people in this barracks could disappear.
Lu Cheng walked around the Chinese army camp several times, but he still didn't understand how such a thing could happen.
The old ghost in golden armor looked at the three of them without saying a word, the three of them had been sitting in the camp of the Chinese army for a long time, and they still didn't understand why this happened.
"Could it be that the soldiers of this Liangchuan Banner have suddenly gone crazy?"
"Eating and eating, it was like someone had been tricked, and they left the barracks together?"
"But where will they go when they leave the barracks?"
I really couldn't figure it out, just as Lu Cheng was meditating, he suddenly noticed that a very strong soul fluctuation was coming from the northeast.
Not one share, but a lot, it should be that many people are rushing to the Liangchuan Banner military camp.
Moreover, there are several fluctuations that he is familiar with.
"Strange, what are they doing here?"
Just when Lu Cheng felt strange, a neighing sound of horses appeared outside the barracks, and the three of them hurriedly came to check outside the camp tent, only to bump into Zhang Laosi, who was carrying a big horse saber.
"Damn! Why is this Liangchuan Banner's barracks so empty!"
"There's not even a janitor, this is a fart barracks!"
"Hey, why are you here?"
Zhang Laosi led a team of men and horses directly through the gate of the barracks, and as soon as he walked to the tent of the Chinese army, he saw Lu Cheng running out of the tent.
"Fourth brother, I should ask you about this. ”
"Shouldn't you be in Miyun Banner, why did you come to Liangchuan Banner?"
"Hey, you're asking, if it's okay, we definitely won't come!"
Zhang Laosi looked behind him, only to see General Chen Shao walking over quickly, and there were a few guards beside him who were carrying three or four young soldiers.
When the young soldier who was held up saw the commander of the Chinese army, his expression became extremely frightened.
"General Shen. ”
General Chen arched his hand at Shen Qing, and at the same time arched his hand at Lu Cheng and Tang Ke.
"What's going on with these guys?"
Shen Qing asked directly at the soldiers who were being framed.
"They are soldiers of Liangchuan Banner, they fled to Miyun Banner overnight last night, and were arrested by the soldiers of the Miyun Banner sentry. ”
"It seems that something happened to Liang Chuanqi, so we made a preliminary inquiry and rushed over directly. ”
Lu Cheng listened to General Chen's words, walked straight to the panicked soldier, and touched his neck and forehead with his hands.
"Crazy?"
Lu Cheng looked at this soldier in some surprise, and lightly nodded his forehead twice, and the soldier began to tremble!
"Monster!
After he shouted twice, he went straight to the ground, foaming at the mouth and convulsing all over.
