Chapter 278: The Sword Is Not Old

More and more pythons poured into the Ghost Gate Hall, turning this ancient and majestic hall into a sea of pythons.

Under the arch guard of all the guards, Zhou Tiejun fought hard, and everyone went all out, becoming more and more desperate. The pythons that poured into the main hall were too much to kill, and finally killed a python, and before they could take a breath, five or six pythons pounced, or even more.

Among the ferocious pythons, there are also terrible poisonous snakes, which are not large but contain deadly poison, and they take advantage of the chaos to pounce on and bite, basically declaring the death penalty and only half a life left, and then being strangled or swallowed alive by many pythons. After a few guards were accidentally poisoned, they knew that it was impossible to live, so they simply chose to kill themselves with horizontal swords, not because they had much courage, but because they didn't want to watch being swallowed alive by the python.

"Shoot the arrows and notify the ghost five that they will come back for help, quickly!"

"Tell Ghost Wu, if you don't arrive in time, Lao Tzu won't survive, and he won't be able to escape death!"

Zhou Tiejun's voice was hoarse, his cloak was scattered, he held a long knife and fought hard with the snakes, he was covered in blood and embarrassed, and he forgot all about his face and identity.

Originally, he was still hiding behind his guards, eager to save the day. When the guards fell one after another, they had no choice but to pull out their swords and go into battle in person, and they couldn't care about anything at the moment of life and death. Over the years, he has been pampered and accustomed to comfortable and enjoyable days, but his cultivation is still there, and he really broke out more ferocious than many guards, cutting many pythons in two.

The ground shook and the mountains shook, and the sound of knocking on the door was endless.

Hong Python showed his true body, and his huge body had been violently slamming into the gate of the Ghost Gate Hall, trying to forcibly knock down the gate and kill it. A large number of pythons got in through the window, making Zhou Tiejun and the others tired to deal with, but compared to the huge number of python legions, the pythons that got into the main hall were still a drop in the ocean.

Looking out of the Ghost Gate Hall, the outside was crowded with pythons, huddled together layer upon layer, and tens of thousands of pythons writhed and danced wildly together, terrifying the soldiers. At the beginning, I was expecting the soldiers stationed in the barracks to rush over to support, but when I heard the terrible screams coming from the direction of the barracks, I was desperate one by one, and I could only hope that the elite soldiers who were on guard outside would come back in time.

More pythons rushed over, the screams in the direction of the barracks gradually subsided, and the pig demon Zhu Wuji came to the wind, laughing and joining the battle against the Ghost Gate Palace. Under the ferocious attack of the two super demon beasts, the one-meter-thick stone gate shook violently, and many cracks appeared on it, and the ancient prohibition superimposed on the stone gate was about to be forcibly broken.

At this moment, the sound of a hurried horn came from outside the General's Palace, the ground shook, and the cavalry of the brigade rushed back from all directions. An angry roar came from the southeast, suppressing the sound of the horn with amazing penetrating power, and a powerful force fluctuation was heard in the distance.

In the Ghost Gate Hall, Zhou Tiejun, who was gritting his teeth and fighting bloodily, suddenly perked up, "Ghost Five, it's Ghost Five who is back, kill!"

"Kill!"

The soldiers also lifted their spirits and gritted their teeth to persevere.

The cavalry of the brigade rushed into the Ghost Gate General's Mansion at a gallop, each of them had a rain crossbow, pulled the trigger and shot thirteen crossbow arrows, opened the way with dense crossbow arrows, and shot the pythons along the way to the Ghost Gate Palace. Ghost Five rushed to the front wielding the Ghost Head Knife, slashing countless pythons like chopping melons and vegetables all the way, and the giant python as thick as a bucket pounced on it, and was also cut in two by one of them.

The number one master at the Ghost Gate Pass, Ghost Five, rushed back as quickly as possible, and led three thousand dead soldiers into a no-man's land, and no one could stop him for a while. Behind them, more soldiers followed, and the situation was urgent, and the Flame Knights who were patrolling the streets all hurried back.

In the woods, Hong Yuan Huo Ran stood up, and was about to rush into the Ghost Gate Hall to kill Zhou Tiejun before the Ghost Five arrived, when suddenly his heart moved, and he gave Hong Python and Zhu Wuji an order to retreat. At the same time, the Scorpion King, who had been lying on his shoulder, moved, and the eaves walked silently into the Ghost Gate Hall.

The strong wind blew in his face, Hong Python and Zhu Wuji quickly withdrew to Hong Yuan's side, Hong Python was a little puzzled and unwilling, "My lord, the gate is about to fall, and if you hold on for a while, you can kill the commander of the Ghost Gate, why do you want to withdraw?"

"By the way, the snake demon rushed in to kill, and I will resist the reinforcements outside!" Zhu Wuji took the initiative to ask for battle, and after the crazy killing, he was red-eyed.

"The Ghost Gate Pass is just a checkpoint on the road, the real test has not yet arrived, it's not worth spending too much price here, retreat!"

Hong Yuan ordered in a deep voice, the first to fly and retreat quickly, Hong Python had no choice but to follow behind Hong Yuan with Zhu Wuji and command the Python Legion to retreat. The python, which was crowded outside the main hall of the ghost gate, was ordered to retreat like a tide,

"It's a pity, it's just a little bit, it's a pity......"

Zhu Wuji shook his head, tonight's raid was very successful, but he failed to kill Zhou Tiejun, the commander of the Ghost Gate, and he was always a little unsatisfied.

"It's a pity, the best is yet to come!"

Hong Yuan sneered, and glanced at the Scorpion King in the Ghost Gate Hall from a distance, and the latter rushed away, not taking the opportunity to sneak attack Zhou Tiejun and the guards around him, but quietly burrowed into Zhou Tiejun's wine jug.

Continuing to attack at all costs, it is possible to kill Zhou Tiejun in one go, but in that case, it is bound to miss the opportunity to retreat with all his body, and he will usher in the crazy counterattack of the Ghost Five and the Flame Knights. Even if he, Hong Python and Zhu Wuji can get out smoothly, the Python Legion will suffer heavy losses, or even collapse, this is definitely not the result that Hong Yuan wants to see.

His purpose was just to get mixed in the crowd and leave the ghost gate to go to the Night Demon Stone Forest, Zhou Tiejun should be killed, but he couldn't afford to lose both with him. The Python Legion is extraordinarily brave in battle, perhaps the key to whether or not the task can be successfully completed in the Daredevil Stone Forest in the future, and it is not cost-effective to lose all of it here in the Ghost Gate Pass. However, not wanting to lose both, it doesn't mean that just let go of the hateful Zhou Tiejun, Hong Yuan improvised and thought of an idea. Whether it can succeed in the next place depends on whether the Scorpion King's ability and Zhou Tiejun are matched.

Ghost Wu glanced at Hong Yuan's figure from a distance, didn't care about chasing Hong Yuan, his body rose from the ground and drilled into the ghost gate hall from the window, and the knife was like electricity, killing all the pythons that were still fighting with the soldiers. Outside the main hall of the Ghost Gate, Chu Yannan also came, leading the masters of the Chu family to come to the aid and kill the python that had no time to retreat.

"My lord, Ghost Five is late, please forgive your sins!" Ghost Five knelt down on one knee and pleaded guilty to Zhou Tiejun, and the dead soldiers under his command opened the door and rushed in, protecting Zhou Tiejun with three layers inside and three layers outside.

"Hmph, you're damned! Ghost Five, your skills are getting worse and worse, it's too disappointing! Say, did you deliberately come late and let the deity die here on purpose?" Zhou Tiejun was furious, and loudly scolded the Ghost Five who flew to save him in public, without giving him face at all.

Ghost Five lowered his head and said respectfully, "Don't dare!"

"Hmph, the deity forgives you for being an ugly monster and doesn't dare! What are you doing in a daze, go and kill that kid from Hong Yuan to the deity, and come back with his head! Today, if it weren't for the deity himself being strong enough, relying on you waste, he would have been swallowed alive by the python!" Zhou Tiejun looked angry, and after the danger, he hated Hong Yuan to the core, and behind the anger was fear, worried that Hong Yuan would make a comeback. This battle made him sure that what Chu Yannan said was right, everything was done by Hong Yuan behind his back, and he also deeply saw Hong Yuan's power and understood the meaning of Torrent Futu.

"Yes!"

Ghost Five's body stiffened a little, but he didn't say a word, turned around and rushed out, chasing Hong Yuan alone. Behind him, the atmosphere of the Ghost Gate Hall was completely relaxed, and there were elite soldiers everywhere.

Chu Yannan walked in and congratulated loudly from afar, "Brother Zhou, congratulations, I repelled the army of hundreds of thousands of demon beasts of that kid in Hong Yuan alone, Brother Zhou is really brave!"

"What is the bravery, I almost lost my life, but fortunately, the sword is not old. ”

Zhou Tiejun was modest on his lips, but he was proud on his face.

"Brother Zhou, do you believe it now? Everything is the conspiracy of that kid in Hong Yuan, if that kid doesn't die for a day, neither of us will be at peace!" Chu Yannan first complimented, and then struck while the iron was hot, "Now, you must not open the city gate and fall for that kid's tricks, and if he escapes from the ghost gate, there will be endless troubles in the future." ”

"That kid is so hateful that he even came up with a trick to pretend to be a ghost. However, now the entire ghost gate is panicked, and people really think that a night demon has come here, but they are afraid of ......" Zhou Tiejun hesitated a little.

"It's okay, Brother Zhou, you will come forward in person tomorrow to make it clear in public, and absolutely no one will have any doubts. There is really no one who doesn't have long eyes to make trouble, and he will directly pull it out and cut it down, these people can't make any climate; on the contrary, Hong Yuan's kid is brave and strategic, and his cultivation is getting higher and higher day by day. If you don't want to kill him now, it will be our turn to become his sword ghost in the future, Brother Zhou, you have to think about it carefully. Chu Yannan made a plan and tried his best to bewitch Zhou Tiejun to strike while the iron was hot.

"Okay, continue to block the city gate! Pass my order, tomorrow everyone will gather in the Ghost Gate Square, and those who violate the order will be killed!"

Zhou Tiejun ordered in a deep voice and decided to go out and do a big job. Today's battle really frightened him, and he was worried about the consequences.

"Brother Zhou is wise!"

Chu Yannan smiled and finally breathed a sigh of relief. With Chu Yannan's strong cooperation, it would be easy to do, unless Hong Yuan no longer hid his whereabouts and took the initiative to break through, risking being chased and killed by masters from all walks of life all the way to the Night Demon Stone Forest, otherwise, there would always be a way to dig him out!

"I heard that Zhao Xuemin's woman also came to the Ghost Gate, hehe, Brother Chu......" Zhou Tiejun leaned into Chu Yannan's ear, smiled, and only said half a sentence.

"Brother Zhou, don't worry, brother, I know what to do, I must be neat and tidy, so that no one will suspect you. ”

Chu Yannan replied in a low voice, naturally understanding what Zhou Tiejun meant, and the two of them looked at each other and smiled.
