The sun was high, the breeze was light, and there were already 20,000 soldiers gathered in the martial arts arena of the City Lord's Mansion, and at this moment, Zhong Yu was sitting on a big horse with green scales and a tall head, wrapped in red armor, and most of the officials who had just discussed were standing on his side.

Under their busyness, 20,000 soldiers soon came here to assemble, and they couldn't help but wonder when they saw a strange young man standing on the main seat, but the military discipline was serious, and they didn't dare to show the slightest expression even if they were confused.

Zhong Yu slowly glanced at the crowd, with an indifferent smile on the corner of his mouth, he took out the token and showed it to everyone, and said loudly: "In the next Zhong Yu, I came here to serve as the commander of the city guard army on the order of the Divine Dragon Holy Envoy, and I should have waited for Lord Xu Ju to hold a ceremony with him after his return, but the world has changed, strange and unpredictable, Lord Xu Ju is trapped in the Sun Shadow Mountain Range at the moment, and I am not willing to take on the task of going to the rescue, you are all the majestic divisions of Liezhu, this trip is bound to be won, and you must not slack off!"

"Yes!"

More than 20,000 gods and men shouted together, and their momentum shook the birds in the sky unsteadily, Zhong Yu smiled slightly and looked at the person beside him: "Lord Yan, where are the gods you are waiting to gather?" The man heard the words and pointed towards the right side of the army, Zhong Yu looked at what he was pointing, and suddenly frowned slightly, only to see seven people standing there alone: "You only gathered seven people in two hours?"

Lord Yan said respectfully: "Returning to my lordship, time is in a hurry, and those gods shook their heads and refused as soon as they heard that they were going to the Sun Shadow Mountain Range. Zhong Yu sighed lightly: "That's it, how is the seriously injured soldier now?" "My lord, he is still unconscious. Zhong Yu originally wanted to let the person who reported the news go with him, so as to increase the chance of finding Xu Ju and the others, but the man was seriously injured and couldn't wake up for a short time, so he had to give up.

Turning his head to look at the 20,000 sergeants, he shouted: "Let's go!" At that moment, the generals took the lead, and when the seven people saw this, they also rode their green scale horses to Zhong Yu and the others, and such a big action in the City Lord's Mansion had already attracted everyone's attention, and after leaving the City Lord's Mansion, they saw that the streets were densely packed with gods and men watching, and they were talking about the army for a while. Suddenly, I heard an exclamation from the crowd: "Isn't that kid who took the lead the one who traded in Wanbao Pavilion yesterday?"

Zhong Yu glanced in that direction when he heard this, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly. Suddenly, many people looked at Zhong Yu, even if they didn't go to Wanbao Pavilion yesterday, they were surprised by the young man who suddenly appeared and commanded all the armies, and the torrent of white armor came out of the street, and it didn't take long to get out of the city gate. Zhong Yu directly ordered everyone to hurry at full speed, at the moment 20,000 green scale horses galloped wildly, the Sun Shadow Mountain Range was two thousand miles away from Liezhu City, even if the green scale horses had outstanding endurance and extremely fast speed, they would need at least a day to arrive, this horse was an eighth-order demonic beast, and almost all cities would be raised for marching and hurrying.

They traveled without pause, and finally came to the Sunshadow Mountains after nightfall, and Zhong Yu ordered the people to dismount and rest, and he consulted with the generals and the seven citizens. Everyone sat in a circle, and Zhong Yu was the first to speak: "Since you have been recruited, you must be very familiar with this Sunshadow Mountain Range, I wonder what you propose next?"

A man in animal skins said with a smile: "Of course we are familiar with this place, but the Sun Shadow Mountain Range is majestic and boundless, and you don't know how much it occupies, so you adults need to report a destination." Zhong Yu lowered his head and pondered, and a general spoke: "Lord Zhong, it is better to send scouts to investigate first and find the traces of Lord Xu Ju." Zhong Yu nodded and smiled: "Yes, it should be so." ”

The man was ordered to send scouts, and while everyone was waiting, Zhong Yu said again: "Can you tell us what should be paid attention to the most in this Sun Shadow Mountain Range?" one person replied: "Naturally, it is the fierce and violent demon beast, but in recent years, there have been rogues entrenched in it, and they are also extremely dangerous, so we don't dare to come here to hunt the demonic beasts." "There are also highly poisonous plants, which tend to be brightly colored or look tempting, but can kill if you get closer. ”

Another person said: "In recent years, there have been many fewer gods who have dared to enter the Sun Shadow Mountain Range, but we are the only ones who are very familiar with this place, and although we have encountered many dangers, we can all save the day. They didn't talk for long, and just now the man came back and said that two teams of scouts had been sent in. Zhong Yu nodded slightly and began to talk to the seven people about all kinds of things in the Sun Shadow Mountain Range, and he was curious to listen to it for a while, and he was interested in this mountain range, and he waited for the time of the two pillars of incense, and the two teams of scouts still never came back, and everyone's faces were a little ugly, and one of them said: "Lord Zhong, the average scout should return after a stick of incense, and now that he has been gone for so long, if he is either lost, he has encountered an accident." ”

They knew that the scouts had undergone special training, and they would leave marks on the roads they had walked, and that getting lost would not happen at all, and for a while, a trace of gloom rose in everyone's hearts, and Zhong Yu frowned: "Send another team in." As he spoke, he looked at the seven citygoers: "I don't know which brother is willing to go with me, those scouts are alert and intelligent, but they are not familiar with this place. ”

The seven of them looked at each other, and then each bowed their heads and said nothing, Zhong Yu also understood that they didn't want to be in danger. Finally, he shook his head and said: "That's it, let them be careful in everything, even if they don't gain anything, they can't rush in." A general went down again to give the order, and the seven felt guilty in their hearts, but the guilt must have been insignificant with their own lives. After another long wait, Zhong Yu closed his eyes and sat cross-legged, like a stone statue, suddenly Zhong Yu opened his eyes, only to see a scout covered in blood rushing out of the Sun Shadow Mountain Range, everyone was shocked when they saw this, they surrounded him, the scout was bleeding more than pale face: "Yes... There was an ambush. ”

After saying this, he tilted his head and fainted, and no matter how much everyone shouted, he didn't wake up. The generals looked at Zhong Yu, waiting for his order, Zhong Yu stared at the man carefully, and suddenly his eyes narrowed slightly, and he said indifferently: "Let's see what kind of scars he has on his body?" When everyone heard this, they looked at the scout again, and one of them exclaimed: "It's a knife wound!" "Could it be that the ambusher is a rogue?" "Hmph! How can this be reasonable, that group of murderers is really bold, and they dare to hurt our guards in Liezhucheng." ”

Zhong Yu was silent in thought, and Linhu stepped forward and said, "Lord Zhong, those rogues are too rampant, please give the order to wipe them all out!" "Please give the order!" The generals were filled with righteous indignation and anger, Zhong Yu was silent for a while and then spoke: "The enemy is dark and I am clear, don't act rashly." When the generals heard this, they became anxious, but Zhong Yu said: "You don't have to worry, I just said that you can't act rashly, but I didn't say not to move." ”

He looked around at the crowd and pointed to one person, "You come with me into the Sunshadow Mountains to investigate the situation." The man was shocked when he heard this, and this was one of the seven people who had been recruited: "I... Just the two of us?" Before he could nod his head, the generals next to him spoke up to dissuade: "How can my lord be the commander of all armies and put himself in danger?" "I have made up my mind, and the generals don't need to persuade me again, not to mention that even if I dare to do so, it will naturally be enough to protect myself." ”

The man shook his head again and again: "No, no, no, I won't go, aren't the two of us looking for death?" Zhong Yu's eyes loomed murderous: "I can't help you, since you are here, you will obey the order, and besides, I will go with you personally, are you still afraid of dying?" The man was still hesitant when he heard this, but Zhong Yu didn't care about it, he grabbed his shirt and swept towards the Sun Shadow Mountain Range, and everyone could only watch Zhong Yu's figure disappear in the future, some people were worried for a while, and some people sneered in their hearts.

That person was grabbed by Zhong Yu as if in the clouds and mist, and the speed of his Ten Thousand Miles Divine Movement was extremely fast, and before he could react more, the two of them had already entered the Sun Shadow Mountain Range. Zhong Yu put him down and smiled: "I also hope that Brother Tai will show you the way." After speaking, he began to look for clues, Xu Ju and the others also led troops to encircle and suppress the rogue last time they came here, so many people and horses could not have left nothing, Zhong Yu, who was exploring, suddenly pointed a little, and a big hole suddenly appeared in a giant tree next to the person: "If you dare to take a step back, I will kill you." ”

It turned out that this person wanted to turn around and run away while Zhong Yu was looking around, but Zhong Yu's spiritual sense was so powerful, and when he just made a move, he noticed that the man knelt on the ground with a thud: "Lord Zhong, please let me go, this place is full of rogues, monsters are raging, and only you and I are tantamount to killing ourselves." Zhong Yu slowly turned his head to stare at him and said, "I said I would save your life, what are you afraid of?"

The man's body kept trembling, still begging Zhong Yu to let him go, Zhong Yu took a few steps forward and raised his head to look at himself: "Either lead the way, or die." The man was shocked by Zhong Yu's evil anger, and for a moment forgot his fear, and reluctantly stood up. Zhong Yu no longer cared about him and turned around to investigate, and at this moment Zhong Yu was suddenly startled, and the palm wind suddenly slapped the person away, and he also retreated to dodge. "Snort" I saw dozens of leaf darts shooting like rain, covering the place where the two of them were standing just now.

Zhong Yu's body moved, and disappeared in place in an instant, the man didn't react, he looked at the countless leaf darts on the ground in a daze, and after a few breaths, he suddenly heard two bangs, only to see two men in green fall to the ground, Zhong Yu asked coldly: "Who are you, why did you sneak attack?" The two glanced at each other, and then suddenly knelt in front of Zhong Yu: "God spares life, God spares life, we have accidentally killed a few people and are wanted, and we have no choice but to hide in this Sun Shadow Mountain Range in fear." ”

Zhong Yu sneered: "I accidentally killed a few people, so how about I accidentally kill you today?" The two of them were immediately frightened when they heard this, and they kowtowed again and again and begged for mercy. Zhong Yu asked the two of them to shut up and then asked, "A few days ago, someone came to encircle and suppress you, where are they now?" The two looked at each other and their bodies trembled, and after a while, the man on the left spoke: "They were chased and killed near Shuiluo Peak and disappeared, and we haven't found them for a few days." ”

Zhong Yu looked at the man he brought in, he nodded, "I know where the Water Conch Peak is. Zhong Yu smiled indifferently, but this smile was indescribably evil and cold in the eyes of that person. Zhong Yu knocked the two unconscious and took them out of the Sunshadow Mountains, and after joining up with the army, he told the confessions of the two just now. Knowing the whereabouts of Xu Ju and the others, all the generals cheered for a while, and their eyes when they looked at Zhong Yu also carried a lot of respect.
