Volume 3 The Hanging Sword Division - The White Ape Thief Chapter 68 A Break into Qilian Mountain (1)

"What are you looking for this official for? This official is a useless person, who has been trekking in the snowy mountains for several days, and his brothers have suffered heavy casualties, but he has not found any clues. I'm sorry for Twilight, I'm sorry for Lord Thorn Shi, and I'm even more sorry for the old folks in Liangzhou City. Although Gu Ying no longer drinks, his sad appearance has not changed at all.

"On the surface, you're really useless. However, we should not only look at the surface, but also look at the inner beauty. Du Lengqiu spoke seriously, and immediately launched the intimate aunt model to implement persuasion.

Gu Ying listened to such philosophical words, and suddenly became a little more energetic. He stared at Du Lengqiu with blazing eyes, hoping that he could continue to say more heart-warming words.

Du Lengqiu looked up and down, and continued: "From your inner point of view, you ......"

Gu Ying's eyes didn't dare to blink.

"You're still a useless fellow!"

Gu Ying was stunned. And Shu Hongsleeve and the old Taoist priest Cao Chen next to him slapped the table and laughed, the laughter shook the roof tiles, and even the dust on the wooden beams shook down, and the laughter made Gu Ying's face flushed, and he couldn't wait to find a crack in the ground to get in and be a century-old otaku.

However, being ridiculed by the three of them like this, the heaviness in Gu Ying's heart suddenly dissipated a little.

Du Lengqiu smiled and patted Gu Ying's shoulder, "It's just a monkey who has become a fine one." Young master, I don't even know how many I have caught, let alone a red-butted monkey? Come, drink a cup of tea to nourish your spirits, and tell me what happened to you in the snowy mountains?"

Gu Ying took out a sheepskin scroll from his bosom and put it on the table to open it, it was a map, the Qilian Mountains stretched across the territory of the three states, but it was clearly drawn on this map.

Gu Ying said embarrassedly: "This is a military secret, or the official traced it from the secret vault in the state." ”

In the eyes of Du Lengqiu and Shu Hongsleeve, this map is completely a plan, with a few strokes outlining the mountains and rivers, and there is only a small symbol of the city and village. This picture has no contour lines and other aids, and it looks very simple, but it is enough to give people a general impression of Qilian Mountain.

Gu Ying pointed to a graphic in Liangzhou, and said in a heavy tone: "At the beginning, this official divided two thousand subordinates into three teams to search for a section of snow mountain. I planned to spend ten days searching all the mountainous areas in Liangzhou, but the official underestimated the steepness of the mountain and the demons in the mountain. ”

"Oh!"

"Just two days after entering the mountains, we were attacked by demons. Although they are all small cold demons without shapeshifting, they are all natives of the Snow Mountains, and they are the best at hiding sneak attacks. ”

"We held out for seven days, and the casualties exceeded 20% of the team. If this official persists, the team will collapse immediately, and then these two thousand brothers will be blood food in the mouths of those demons. For this reason, the official can only retreat, however, this retreat is sorry for Twilight. Speaking of this, Gu Ying's eyes turned red, and he almost burst into tears.

Du Lengqiu couldn't look past Gu Ying's sentimental appearance, he knocked on the map and said, "It's useless to bring a lot of soldiers, just the four of us will do it." I went to Qilian Mountain to find the monkey and beat him so much that his would burst out. ”

Shu Hongsleeve glared at Du Lengqiu, "Vulgar!" Immediately, she looked at Gu Ying and said: "General Gu, a manly man, what are you crying and crying like! Wipe away your tears, let's go to the Snow Mountain, the way of heaven is good, this demon ape has done many injustices, and he will inevitably die under our sword." ”

Gu Ying touched the moist corners of his eyes embarrassedly, his eyes burned, he tried to straighten his back, and said loudly, "Okay! This time, this official will not disappoint Twilight!"

Du Lengqiu patted Gu Ying's shoulder and laughed strangely, "That's right, Lao Gu, this is the true character of a hero." For Qi Muxia, muster up fighting spirit. ”

Gu Ying stood up, casually opened the lid of the wine jug, raised his head and poured the wine on his face, wiped it casually, and washed his face, then he was full of energy, and said with blazing eyes: "This official is ready, let's go!"

The group of people are all high-ranking people, and they don't prepare horses, so they each perform light skills and go out through the window, straight to the north, and go straight to Qilian Mountain.

When Xiao Er went upstairs again, he found that it was empty, and hurriedly ran to the window to see that there was already no one, he hurried downstairs and shouted: "Bastard, someone is eating the overlord meal!"

As the saying goes, Wangshan runs a dead horse, and this Qilian Mountain seems to be very close to Liangzhou City, but in fact it is more than 200 kilometers. Du and Shu only ran for an hour before they stopped.

Gu Ying's strength was the weakest of the four, and he bent over and gasped rapidly, "No more." This official really can't do it. It takes two horses to succeed, and if it goes on like this, when it arrives at Qilian Mountain, the official will have to die of exhaustion. ”

Du Lengqiu looked into the distance, the sky was blue and white. The mountains and fields are undulating, and all of them are dry yellow, and there is no second variegated color. And in this dwarf dead grass, there is already a little bit of green that has broken through the blockade of the cold winter, showing off a touch of color in the spring breeze.

There are also herds of horses roaming the grassland, hundreds of horses gathered together, looking from afar, like changing patterns on the withered yellow carpet.

This is the largest horse farm of the Great Zhou Dynasty - Shandan Horse Farm. The melting snow on the Qilian Mountains converges into endless streams that water this fertile grassland.

"There is a horse farm nearby, and the three of you will wait for a while, and then the official will go and recruit a few horses. ”

Du Lengqiu raised his hand to stop it, he groaned slightly, and said: "Old Gu, you can ride a horse on this grassland, but when you get to the snowy mountains? You have already cultivated your innate qi, and even if you run with all your might, you won't be so tired. In my opinion, it should be due to the fact that your cultivation is too inferior. ”

Gu Ying smiled bitterly, "Riding the wind in this smoke is already the best light skill that this official can find." It's still very strong at tossing and turning. ”

"We are now brothers in the trenches, I have a hundred miles of Ling Feng trick here, if you don't dislike it, I'll recite it to you now." "Du Lengqiu is not a stingy person, besides, now they need the help of Gu Ying, a local, not to mention a light skill, even if it is other magical secrets, as long as they can improve the combat effectiveness of their companions, he will definitely not hesitate to share it.

Gu Ying hesitated for a moment, then said categorically, "Okay!"

Although he didn't even say the word "Xie", this Northwest man had already made the decision to go to the soup in his heart. The brotherly relationship was originally built up bit by bit.

The Hundred Miles Ling Feng Technique is just a light skill, and it is enough to change the route of the True Qi. As a master of innate qi, Gu Ying is the same as Du Lengqiu at the beginning, and a little practice is enough to break through to the fifth layer.

In this way, the speed of the four people running is faster, often a little on the ground, and it has spanned 100 meters, if it is not always necessary to land and borrow strength, it is enough to be called a person among the immortals.

Soon, Qilian Mountain was already in sight.

"Old Gu, has anyone in this world measured Qilian Mountain with footsteps?" After arriving at the foot of the mountain, Du Lengqiu raised his eyes to look at Qilian Mountain, which is thousands of meters high, and asked lightly.

The cold wind blows in the mountains, carrying the unique icy cold of snow-capped mountains.

Gu Ying snorted, "Thousands of miles of Qilian Mountain, there has never been such a extravagant character." ”

"Old Gu, look at this majestic mountain, don't say 2,000 soldiers, even if it takes 20,000 soldiers to search the entire Qilian Mountain in ten days, it's just a joke. ”

"This awesome business is destined for us to complete. Du Lengqiu laughed loudly, and the laughter echoed in the valley, becoming more and more heroic.

Shu Hongsleeves put away her usual grinning temperament, smiled and made a ladylike appearance, and spoke gently, but asked the most critical question, "Are there many monsters in this mountain?"

"Youkai are the best at stealth, and no one can say how many youkai there are. Last time, we were ambushed by the Cold Demon, and we suffered heavy casualties, but that was only the lowest level of the Cold Demon in the Snow Mountain. ”

The old Taoist priest first smiled and said, "Searching for Qilian Mountain, it's really a shame that you can think of it." However, I'm old enough to talk about juvenile madness today, so I'll accompany you to mess around. ”

After pondering for a moment, he put away the image of a sloppy Taoist priest who was out of tune, his eyes were shining, and his expression was cold, "Since we have to do it, we don't have much time to waste, try not to entangle with ordinary monsters." We're mainly looking for the demon ape's lair. ”

After speaking, the old Taoist priest looked at Shu Hongsleeve with bad intentions, and said: "The official uniforms of the two Hanging Sword Divisions are too eye-catching, if they are seen by monsters, they will definitely be besieged with their lives." For the sake of your lives. I suggest you change your clothes. ”

Du Lengqiu said angrily: "Why didn't you say it earlier, now in this barren mountain and wilderness, there is a change of clothes." ”

The old Taoist priest smiled lewdly and took out two extremely greasy and dirty Taoist robes with his backhand. "Well, I'm ready. ”

This old guy must still be holding a grudge against the gambling house. Du Lengqiu scolded in his heart, but there was no way. Like most straight men, Du Lengqiu doesn't have much to change his clothes.

He looked at Shu Hongsleeves, but saw her slowly take out a set of goose yellow long skirts from the bracelet, and couldn't help but be stunned: "Sleeves, I misread you, I thought you were different from other women." ”

"A woman's view of clothes is always the same. As she spoke, she took out another set of pink dresses and said tentatively, "Or, Lao Du, are you wearing this?"

Du Lengqiu turned his head with a sad and indignant face, and said, "Soldiers can be killed, but not humiliated." After saying that, he hatefully snatched the old Taoist priest's greasy robe.

After changing his clothes, Shu Hongsleeve told the old Taoist priest and Gu Ying again: "If you see a monster with the two attributes of water and fire in this mountain, you must not let it go, it is a clue that the Hanging Sword Division has been secretly looking for for a long time, and it may be related to the white ape." ”

Du Lengqiu secretly exclaimed, this statement of Shu Hongsleeves was seamless, and he couldn't help but make these two people not do their best. Regarding the task given by the system, the two of them had no clue, so they just used this to let Gu Ying and the old Taoist priest contribute together.

The two of them were shocked when they heard this, and said, "If there is a clue, it would be great, but this hint is too vague." ”

Shu Hongsleeve spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "It's good to have such a clue." Let's start the division of labor as soon as possible, for those women, every minute is a torment. ”

Gu Ying hurriedly agreed, "Yes, let's start now!"

Shu Hongsleeve flipped his palm, took out four cylindrical red fireworks out of thin air, and distributed them to Gu Ying and the old Taoist, "This is the special fireworks signal of the Hanging Sword Division, as long as you are lucky enough to throw out the true qi inherently, it will explode a red lotus pattern." When we encounter danger or find clues, we use this connection. ”

Subsequently, the four of them followed the area marked on the map and ran towards the depths of Qilian Mountain.

The Qilian Mountains are steep, high and deep rocks. If it is in the twilight of spring, when the mountains are stacked and green, and the flowers are blooming one after another, and the purple and red are beautiful, but now in this early spring, there are only bare treetops and barren grass. As for the scenery, the Sagayama and the misty snow-capped peaks are still in sight.

This mountain is inaccessible and the mountains and rocks are dangerous, but it is in this kind of place that the power of the Baili Ling Wind Trick is revealed. Du Lengqiu is like a goshawk flying in the air, every time he borrows a little strength from the treetops, he will run rampant, especially in the mountains, the wind is extremely strong, he stretches his sleeves like wings, and flies like a fish in water by the wind.

Qilian Mountain is worthy of being a holy mountain in the hearts of the Huns.

Yellow sheep leap like flying in mountain streams, clouded leopards sneak through the grass, foxes sneak close to hares, although there is no green in the mountains, but nature is still vibrant.

Suddenly, the surface of the gray-haired and black-spotted clouded leopard's body was covered with white frost, became extremely hard, and rolled down the hill with a gurgling grunt. This sudden turn of events frightened the nearby yellow sheep and caused them to flee in all directions. Then, a black shadow emerged from the crack in the stone and headed straight for the clouded leopard's corpse.

"Hey, is this the cold demon that Gu Ying said?" Du Lengqiu rode down the wind and approached the other party in an instant. The closer you get, the clearer you see. The shadow was not pitch black, but an extreme deep blue.

"When I catch one alive, maybe this monster will know about the white ape's lair. Thinking so, he drew his sword and slashed at the dark blue demon shadow.

The demon shadow seemed to sense danger, and it jerked its head up, spewing out a fierce white cold wave. "Slash!" The pale golden sword gang flew up against the current, easily splitting this cold wave in two. The cold wave dissipated, rubbing Du Lengqiu's clothes and flying to the sides.

In the blink of an eye, one person and one demon fought as a group.
