Volume XX, Chapter 15
Almost all the large and small forces in the border countries are waiting, Watch, with their own wishful thinking, those small forces are waiting to see how the big forces act, they are good to the dominant side, and those big forces are thinking about how to eliminate their opponents, in order to achieve the final victory, now the two largest forces in the border country are only left in the original border country south of the Kyoto zone and Wang Zhuo's unified three northern provinces, Kyoto now has 300,000 troops, and Wang Zhuo's army also has more than 300,000, both sides are confronting, although the current king of the border country wants to find Wang Zhuo to negotiate peace, but Wang Zhuo is still quiet, the court can not figure out the details of Wang Zhuo, because Wang Zhuo in the three northern provinces, the same as now, quiet, silent for a long time, when everyone thought that he was waiting for the price to sell, but he suddenly acted, and in a very short period of time, he eliminated the three strongest enemies of the three northern provinces, and quickly unified the three northern provinces. Now the imperial court is also worried that Wang Zhuo will not show his attitude, what kind of conspiracy is being planned, and it will be like the unification of the three northern provinces, and it will suddenly take the lead, but the imperial court does not dare to take the initiative to provoke a war, after all, it is unwise to provoke a person like Wang Zhuo, and the imperial court is also happy to be in a corner, everything is based on defense, and it is enough to keep their existing territory. However, the court was really exhausted, and the king only cared about his own pleasure at such a time of life and death, and did not worry about the current precarious situation at all, but listened to the rumors and was quite suspicious of the border generals, which made the border generals panic. And the forbidden army in Kyoto also has its own faction, although they support the current king, but the king also has no way to take these forbidden army generals, in a helpless situation. In order to prevent the forbidden army from rebelling, the imperial court could only accommodate the forbidden army. Steady them.
Not only are people in the border country watching, but the Heavenly Wind Country is also watching now. They have their own plans, after Ying Xue destroyed the magicians of their big country, although they have now recovered their vitality, but the Heavenly Wind Country has lost many opportunities because of this, therefore, the king of the Heavenly Wind Country has already given birth to the heart of the Border Country, he is only a little hesitant now, even if the entire Border Country is destroyed, it is not difficult. However, the border country is indeed a burden, the country of the wind is considering whether to destroy the country or take it as a vassal country, so they are also waiting and waiting, the country of the wind does not recognize the current king, but they have not made a clear statement, they are just waiting for the final result, to see who can unify the border country in the end. Then, send troops to conquer and destroy the border country, or turn the border country into its own vassal.
People from all walks of life are waiting and watching, but there is one person who is busy, and that is Eagle Snow. In the past three months, he has been busy enough. Not only to help Wang Zhuo stabilize the three northern provinces, but also to follow the method of cutting off the sky. Trained a large number of spies, broke into the power of the imperial court, with the guidance and full support of the sky, if Yingxue has a guiding light, of course it will get twice the result with half the effort, in these three months, Yingxue has obtained a lot of information, all the information is showing that the southward expansion has been prepared and perfected, and the unification of the border country is just around the corner.
Not to mention the matters of the border country, the master of the Heavenly Demon Gate is very happy now, after nearly three months of pranayama, he has completely recovered his heyday of power, that is to say, his current Yuan Shen has completely fused with his stand-in, through the help of the Netherworld Holy Stone, the soul of the stand-in has been completely removed, after three months of pranayama, Cultivation, the evil spirit felt that it was time to realize his plan, but with the appearance of the Hades now, he decided to use the power of the Hades to help him do something, and he didn't dare to offend the Hades now, because of his ' Dark Spirit Xuangong 'only practiced to the seventh level, the last three, and the most critical threefold, he also wants to use the power of the Hades to help him succeed in his cultivation, otherwise, if the Hades King is released from the seal, it is not a joke, with his strength is not enough to deal with the Hades, because his Hades's comprehension and use of the dark demon is not something that he can balance with the evil spirit, and there is a more important thing, that is, the one-year covenant between the Interception of Heaven and him, and now the alien evil has been completed, and he wants to abide by the one-year covenant with the Interception of the Heaven, however, the cultivation of the Interception of the Heaven, the alien evil is very clear, although he does not want to let Ying Xue and the Interception of the Sky live again, but it is not easy to destroy the Interception Heaven, so this is the most important reason why the alien evil is eager to refine the 'Dark Spirit Xuangong'.
Just as the evil was about to walk out of the room, suddenly, the 'ghost mirror' of the underworld appeared in the room, and the face of the evil king of the underworld appeared in the sight of the evil spirit.
"Strange evil, what's the matter! As soon as you achieved your goal, did you forget what I had entrusted you with? Last time, I forcibly used energy for you to eliminate the soul extraction, and I was almost discovered by the Heavenly Realm about our Hades intentions, and now that your purpose has been achieved, it is time for you to fulfill your promise!"
"Where is the Hades King, what I said will definitely count, don't worry, you give me a few more days, I will take care of the affairs of the Heavenly Demon Gate, and I will understand your wishes for many years. I think that during my days of retreat, those unsuccessful subordinates must have caused a lot of trouble, and the evil king, rest assured, as soon as the matter is done, I will come to help you remove the lock of the Demon Crystal. I and the evil king complement each other, and both are indispensable, and if I deceive the evil king, won't it harm me. The strange evil said with a smiling face, after all, it was he who had to ask for others now, and he had to lower his posture.
"You are a person who understands, I won't say anything superfluous, you remember to take the Nether Sacred Stone with you at any time, the Holy Stone is what I use to position the Ghost Mirror, otherwise I won't be able to contact you, you just need to put your thoughts on the Holy Stone, I can receive your message and open the Ghost Mirror." Don't be foolish, give you three days, and I'll contact you again after three days!"
"How dare I play tricks in front of the evil king!" said the evil sincerely, and as soon as the ghost mirror disappeared, a fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he walked out of the secret room with a smile.
After the evil came out of the secret room, he found that there was no guard for him outside, and the evil spirit was immediately unhappy, this was the important place for his retreat. Now there is no one to stand guard for him, but fortunately he is lucky. Otherwise, if you disturb people. Isn't it a failure? Thinking about this, he was angry and decided to teach Lu Gang and the others a good lesson, these bastards seem to have forgotten the existence of him, the master of the door.
The evil spirit angrily walked into the hall of the main altar and found that there was no one here, which surprised the evil spirit, what the hell was going on, and why there was no one guarding the main altar. Could it be that something major has happened in the Heavenly Demon Gate these days? An ominous omen surged into the heart of the strange evil, making him suspicious.
The evil looked around in the main altar, and finally let me see three young people who looked in a hurry, the evil hid aside and observed, the three people walked into the room and didn't know what to do, the evil waited on the side, and after a while, the three people walked out of the room.
"Let's go. Otherwise, we're going to be done with it all. One of the young men hurriedly urged.
The strange evil heard it inexplicably, but he still vaguely felt that something important had happened in the Heavenly Demon Gate. Without saying a word, the strange evil stopped in front of the three young men with an extremely fast body. The three of them were all startled when they saw a person suddenly appear out of thin air in front of them.
Wait for the three of them to settle down and take a closer look. It turned out to be their own door master, and the three of them hurriedly knelt on the ground. Xiang Wei said in fear: "The villain doesn't know that the door master has arrived, and I ask the door master to forgive me for the offense!"
"Get up, tell me quickly, why there is not a single living person in the Heavenly Demon Gate, what happened to the entire Heavenly Demon Gate, and why are you in such a hurry!" asked the strange evil in a series of ways.
"The master of the door, there is no need to hide the master of the door now, here's the thing. One of them bowed respectfully.
It turned out that the evil cult had been in retreat for three months, and I don't know who released the news, saying that the evil had escaped from the void and died, as soon as the news came out, there was an uproar up and down the Heavenly Demon Gate, and everyone wanted to wait for time to confirm whether the news was true, but some people had begun to take the lead and win over the altar owners of the major sub-altars, and for those who did not follow, they would be destroyed first. So in order to compete for territory and strengthen their strength, everyone actually killed each other and began to fight, after nearly a month of fighting, the Heavenly Demon Gate basically formed three forces, with Lu Gang as the deputy master, The three forces led by Zheng Biao's deputy door master and Liu Fuwei's deputy door master, these three deputy door masters fought with each other for a month, and the three parties injured each other, but in this way, the internal fire and cannibalism within the Heavenly Demon Gate made all the business of the Heavenly Demon Gate hand over to others, and all the business was replaced by others. Lu, Zheng, and Liu were in a stalemate with each other, but this situation did not last long, because Lu Deputy Sect Master was the deputy head of law enforcement, and his popularity was not very good, and he had offended Zheng and Liu many times, so Zheng and Liu reached a consensus and decided to join forces to deal with Lu Deputy Master together, and then the Heavenly Demon Gate was managed by the two of them together. Liu and the two saw that the situation dragged on like this and there was no way, so the two decided to unite and jointly deal with the deputy master of Lu, as a result, the situation appeared one-sided, Lu Gang suddenly couldn't resist, and retreated, two days ago Lu Gang was trapped by Zheng and Liu, the two deputy masters, on the Yingjian Mountain not far from the main altar. And the three young people were scattered, and the three of them saw that the situation in the Heavenly Demon Gate was too chaotic, so the three of them discussed and decided to escape from the Heavenly Demon Gate, but they didn't expect that when they came back to pack their things, they were bumped into by strange evils.
After hearing this, the black robe of the whole body was windless, and the stone slabs under his feet were all shattered, it seemed that the evil was already angry to the extreme, and the three people on the side were shocked and knelt on the ground in a hurry.
"In this way, you are Lu Gang's subordinates, and you have left your leader to escape alone, you are guilty!" said the strange evil eerily, it seemed that he was preparing to finish off the three of them.
"The door master spares his life, and we are sorry for the crime, but Deputy Gate Master Lu once warned everyone in advance that if we are lucky enough to escape, we must save our lives, and we must not go to death again, hide for the time being, and secretly accumulate strength, so that we can revive the Heavenly Demon Gate in the future. The three of them said in a panic, they are very clear about the rules of the Heavenly Demon Gate, and they can only say this, maybe they can save their lives.
"It seems that I haven't mistaken Lu Gang, forget it, you all get up, they are in Yingjian Mountain, you lead the way, go with me." The strange evil put away his anger, and his tone became less solemn and cold than just now, Lu Gang's actions made a warm feeling rise in his heart, after all, there were still people who were loyal to him. It was because of the lie just now that Lu Gang was spared the fate of being punished. This is unexpected, Lu Gang is not loyal to the evil spirit. He also wants to take the position of his master, but the current situation is no longer under his control, Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei have joined forces, ready to uproot him, now Lu Gang is at the end of his rope, and the three people who ran out just now also saw the bad situation and wanted to take the opportunity to slip away, but they didn't expect such bad luck to encounter a strange evil that had just come out. In desperation, they had to casually recite this lie, but they didn't expect that they could escape because of it, which made them a little surprised.
"Yes, Door Master!" After hearing this, the three of them hurriedly stood up as if they had been granted amnesty, and prepared to go to Yingjian Mountain with the evil spirit. The three of them had already heard of the evil temper and methods, and knew that the three of them had walked back from the ghost gate just now, but fortunately, they were in a hurry just now. There is a way to deal with it, otherwise, how did the three of them die. I don't know yet.
Yingjian Mountain is not far from the main altar, and the evil and three subordinates rushed to Yingjian Mountain in half an hour. The battle on the mountain was almost over, and most of Lu Gang's men were killed. There is not much left. And Lu Gang himself has been surrounded by Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei, trapped in a forest on Yingjian Mountain.
"Lu Gang! If you don't come out and surrender, if you obediently tie up your hands and capture, we will attack with fire, and when the time comes, don't say that we haven't given you a chance, if you come out by yourself, we can still give you a good time, otherwise, you will be better off than dead. Liu Fuwei saw that the victory was in his hands, and shouted loudly to Lu Gang.
"Lu Gang, because you are the deputy master in charge of law enforcement, you are high and arrogant, we brothers, which one of you has not been angry with you, you think that you have the master of the door to follow, then there is no one in your eyes, now who else will save you, I see how majestic you are, how arrogant! Come out quickly, our patience is limited, I will give you a quarter of an hour, if you don't come out, we will attack with fire, and when the time comes, you will not even have a chance. Hahaha!" Zheng Biao thought that his goal was about to be achieved, and the evil anger of the years was about to be vomited, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.
"Deputy Master Lu, what should we do now?" Wu Hongsoul was finally won over by Lu Gang, he was originally an old treacherous person, after thinking about things, he stood tall after many years of wind and rain, and was called 'tumbler' by everyone among the various branch masters. However, he is very annoyed in his heart now, he is a wise person, he actually missees Lu Gang, he is not a person who has achieved great things, it seems that today he is planted in the hands of Lu Gang, and the various wishes that Lu Gang made to him can no longer be realized. Wu Hongsoul thought of this, and saw his two eyes rolling straight up, and his heart was constantly calculating. He knew that now was not the time to be angry and complain to each other, and at this critical time, what he was thinking about was how to protect himself. Lu Gang is no longer reliable, and now Wu Hongsoul only thinks about how to save his life, if necessary, he can kill Lu Gang to protect himself, and he is ready to do so now, because he found that the target of Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei is not himself, but Lu Gang in front of him.
"Lord Wu, you don't usually have a lot of ideas, why don't you have a countermeasure today?Could it be that we really lost our lives here today?" Lu Gang only cared about self-pity, and he didn't expect that Wu Hongsoul beside him had already shown a fierce light.
"Deputy Master Lu, now we are on a cliff in front of us, and there is no way to go back, Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei have surrounded us, it can be said: there is no way forward, there are chasing soldiers behind, the overall situation has been decided, the general trend has gone, and there is no way to return to the sky!" Wu Hongsoul sighed and slowly approached Lu Gang.
"Since that's the case, then I'll let me take it, anyway, what they want is me, it has nothing to do with you, I'll go see Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei now. I hope they will spare your lives. Lu Gang sighed and said, the situation is already in front of him, the overall situation has been decided, and if he continues to fight, he can only die in vain. He still has a bit of heroism, which makes Wu Hongsoul unexpected, he was originally going to kill him, but now when he heard Lu Gang say this, he was not in a hurry to do it.
Lu Gang and Wu Hongsoul walked out of the woods together with only twenty subordinates, fighting for days, and they were at an absolute disadvantage, Lu Gang's men had lost their will to fight, some of them were killed in battle, and the other part had fled.
"Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei, the two of you won, I am willing to surrender and die, I just hope that you can spare these brothers of mine, everyone is your own person, I hope you can let them live. After Lu Gang walked out of the woods, he shouted loudly at Zheng and Liu.
"Okay, we only need your life, the rest of the people are not important to us, we can let them go now, since you are so refreshing, we are not convenient to force our hands, so let's kill yourself, we will bury you well." After Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei glanced at each other, Zheng Biao shouted loudly to Lu Gang. They have already started to kill, how can they let go of Lu Gang's people, since these people are on Lu Gang's side, and they dare to confront them, how can they be spared, they have already killed Wu Hongsoul, but they just want Lu Gang to kill himself again, and then kill Wu Hongsoul and others one by one.
Lu Gang knew that he was already certain to die, since he was born without love, it was better to seek a good time, wouldn't it be neat and tidy. After listening to the words of Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei, he said to Wu Hongsoul and others: "Time is not with me, I have to end up like this today, I don't complain about God, but I just suffered all the brothers, today I can exchange my death for your life, I Lu Gang died without regrets, brothers, take care!"
Wu Hongsoul and the others have nothing to say now, this is a world of the strong, the prince and the loser, now Wu Hongsoul and the others are thinking about their own affairs, how to gain the trust of Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei, and save their lives, if they can join the Heavenly Demon Gate again, it will be the best thing, as for Lu Gang's death is a foregone conclusion, it is also an inconsequential matter, but at least they know that as long as Lu Gang dies, everything will be fine. Everyone was thinking about their own wishful thinking, but they didn't expect that Zheng Biao and Liu Fuwei had decided to put them to death.
Lu Gang glanced around at everyone, and found that everyone was a little absent-minded, knowing that they were already dying people, these were all loyal to their subordinates, and now they are too lazy to care about his life and death, the world is hot and cold, and people's hearts are unpredictable. Before the person left, the tea was already cold, and he exchanged his life for everyone's life, but in the end he didn't even have a word of comfort to him. Thinking of this, Lu Gang sighed, closed his eyes and prepared to end himself.
At this moment of despair, Lu Gang suddenly heard a familiar heavy shout: "Lu Gang stop!" (To be continued.) )
