Chapter 36: The Battle of the Five Armies (9)
Forty miles north of Seven Nights City, there is a small road called Diluo Road. The path is the only way to the city from the north; If the Silver Demon Clan sent troops to attack the Seven Night Demon Clan, it would most likely take this path.
And this path, that is, the acolyte of the Seven Nights Styx Moon, Ruyue Fengchen, discovered the secret passage when he reconnoitred from the air—a secret passage that also led from the Seven Nights to the territory of the Silver Clan.
The road is made entirely of red stone, and its color is not visible in the dusty sand on weekdays. It was only occasionally when God finally opened his eyes that it rained heavily, and the road was washed away from the dust, revealing the dazzling red inside.
In the distance, a black shadow was lying quietly on the ground, listening to the ground with his ears, and muttered in a low voice: "It's not good, the reinforcements of the demon clan have arrived, and it must.... The eldest grandson must be notified as soon as possible - no, old handsome! ”
The man's name is Yang Yanfeng, and he is the fifth rank (dog) under the Demon Guardian God Rank. He was agile and covered with a black cloak. Under the cloak, there are many hidden weapons, and he is a very good master of hidden weapons. He Bendi belonged to the second vanguard army of the eldest grandson Long Qing, and was assigned by Long Qing alone to carry out reconnaissance missions.
He is the "eye" of the Second Army of the Vanguard, and he is also the "secret agent" of the army of Geshu Laoshuai. ”
Yang Yanfeng shook off the Silver Ranger and the scout of the Seven Nights that he met by chance along the way, and went straight to Diluo Dao.
Of course, there was another reason for walking the Diluo Road, and that was that before dawn, when he passed by the Seven Nights of Flowers, he was surprised to find that there were a large number of demon corpses there—the Assassin group from the Silver Clan
Yang Yanfeng stepped forward to investigate a slain Thousand Shadow Assassin, and his wound opened as if it had been cut by a wind blade. Moreover, the attack range of this magic knife can reach tens of meters away, and it can whirl, flip, cut, curl, and slash like a living thing, and its power is amazing.
"What a powerful magic knife! Still is..... It's better to avoid. Yang Yanfeng was secretly surprised. Therefore, he did not dare to go the same way again, but took the Diluo Road, and he had to look far away and find out the enemy's situation.
He had been galloping for a whole day and a night, and it had taken a lot of effort to scout around. When we arrived at the Tilo Road Pass, it was already the afternoon of the third day.
He rested for a while, stayed for most of the hour, and kept looking vigilantly from afar, refusing to let go of the slightest disturbance.
The sun was already high in the sky, it was July, and the occasional chirping of the iron-beaked eagle could be heard in the sky. The eagle's roar was extremely loud, which gave Yang Yanfeng a feeling of the sky and the earth.
As far as the eye can see, in addition to the mottled and bare laterite rocks, there is an endless and unobstructed desert of heavenly sin.
Yang Yanfeng stretched out his hand and tore open the bag of dry food, let the wind and sand blow on it, slowly picked up a shriveled steamed bun, and bit it heavily.
Yang Yanfeng, because he is good at tracking thousands of miles, is known as "the watchman of the imperial capital", "God catches Yang Yanfeng" and "chases the star", and his name resounded all over the world.
He was supposed to serve an official security agency in the imperial capital called the Night Raven. He often goes on missions such as bounty hunters. When a criminal escapes, Yang Yanfeng will use his "special" ability to arrest him.
Of course, the people in the rivers and lakes gave him a nickname: "Hound from the Imperial Capital", which was the title that Yang Yanfeng was famous all over the world in the first year of his debut.
At that time, he was also really beautiful in the rivers and lakes, but no one would have thought that overnight, he would suddenly disappear. People in the rivers and lakes were only afraid of death, and they couldn't imagine that Yang Yanfeng went to Mangguan and joined the border army.
With an unpredictable secret weapon and a terrifying and treacherous crossbow machine, he entered the customs alone and served in the army for thousands of miles.
Jianghu has always been a stage for self-release.
But what about in the military? The military is a place where discipline is needed. What happens to people in the rivers and lakes after they join the army? Even if a master like him is submerged in the crowd of 400,000 border troops, will he have the feeling of blending into the sea?
Yes and no. He became famous at the age of twenty-five, has been in the army for ten years, and is now thirty-five years old at the age of Chinese New Year's Eve. The moon rose, and in the moonlight, his skin was much darker than before, with more shrewdness and ability.
At this moment, a hurricane blew, and the sand and dust in Diluo Road rose even greater, and suddenly there were two demonic qi in the wind and sand ahead.
"It's a demon!" Yang Yanfeng immediately put down the steamed bun, covered his whole body with his skin, and lay down on the spot. Keep your eyes on the front without even blinking. Let the wind and sand lap on the body, motionless, even if the tornado comes, it will not be shaken.
In the blink of an eye, the natural camouflage of the wind and sand is complete.
I saw that two delicate figures ran over one after the other, but at that moment, as if sensing something, a demon Huo Ran stopped, and without thinking about it, he swung a knife in the direction where Yang Yanfeng was.
The sword was invisible, but the sword light in mid-air suddenly froze, as if it was blocked in an instant. It turned out that in the process of the sword light, a shield formed by yellow sand suddenly formed in the sand wind!
The sleeves of the robe flew, and she resolutely put the magic knife across her chest, while she herself stood in front of the Seven Nights and the Moon, and said coldly: "Come out, human." ”
The wind and sand were silent for a while, and even the sound of eagles stopped in time. Yang Yanfeng looked at the witch in disbelief, his face was as stiff as a stone sculpture, and he looked at the witch silently.
The hazy voice was cold and cold: "What, a big man? So timid? Or is it not a man at all? ”
Yang Yanfeng's face was blue and red for a while, and before he was over, he slowly stood up and stepped on the crossbow machine to load, aiming at the center of his eyebrows, and blurted out angrily: "Demon clan, I'm out, how are you doing?" ”
After a pause, he turned to the Seven Nights and said, "Lord Styx, you're hungry." I'll kill this human first, and I'll make up for you. You can just rest next to it. ”
The wind and sand blew again, and it seemed to be even more violent than just now, and the sand and dust smashed Yang Yanfeng's face painfully.
Hao narrowed his magic pupils slightly, and put on a posture of conjunction.
Suddenly, she swept back, raising a gust of demonic wind. Instant slash with the right hand: Slash in the middle of the battle. The white robe fluttered like a flying crane, and in an instant, he had already come to Yang Yanfeng, and slashed at his neck with a backhand.
Yang Yanfeng was about to shoot, but a gust of wind blew, and his vision was blurred by sand and dust.
He let out a low cry, and could only subconsciously dodge, and in the dodge, he felt warm blood spray out of his neck.
However, Yang Yanfeng was in danger, shouted in a low voice, and inserted the crossbow machine into the knife wind in his hand during the rolling, shooting three arrows in a row.
Attack me at the risk of your hand being cut off by the wind of the knife? Good skills, good opportunities, good courage!
At that moment, Hao was slightly moved, and he couldn't help but cheer - he was the only opponent who could avoid his hazy moonlit night and chaotic snow leaves for decades!
However, in an instant, I saw the calmness and persistence on Yang Yanfeng's face on the opposite side that had no regrets and disregarded life and death-that kind of expression, which made the little appreciation in his eyes freeze in a blink of an eye.
"This human ...... It's the invaders, it's our enemies for seven nights! ”
Thinking of this, when he re-established his posture, killing intent flashed in his eyes! A cold white light rose from the demon's body, and it seemed that it was planning to decide the victory and defeat in this blow, and divide life and death.
"Human, that's the end of it!" He said expressionlessly, looking at the man in front of him, the wound on the man's neck was still dripping with blood, turning the dry sand bright red.
Yang Yanfeng lowered his head calmly, and a faint green light suddenly flashed from his fingertips—at that moment, the arrows that emitted green brilliance had been filled.
Suddenly, Seven Nights Dark Moon coughed a few times, and her face turned pale: "Ahem...... Forget it, hazy, let him go. ”
"Lord Stygian? What's wrong with you? At that moment, Hao's whole body was shocked, and he blurted out in surprise, subconsciously giving up the battle and quickly swept towards the dark moon.
"My lord, what's wrong with you?" Hazy grabbed the hand of the Seven Nights Moon.
Seven Nights Moon's face turned pale, and she reluctantly made a smile: "Ahem, it's okay, let's hurry back to Seven Nights City." ”
"Yes! Yes, sir. With an indifferent expression, he turned his head to Yang Yanfeng and said, "Human, you are lucky this time." But next time, I'll kill you. ”
Yang Yanfeng didn't make a sound, but Hao kept staring at him, and his cold gaze seemed to be about to smash him alive.
Unable to stand such a look, he snorted coldly and said, "I have never killed the old and weak women and children in my life, and the same is true for the demon clan." I haven't changed my mind yet, so let's go. ”
"Thank you......" Seven Nights Styx gently pulled the corners of her clothes, gave a salute, and the master and servant turned to leave.
Along the way, the two demons were relatively speechless. I didn't know what to say for a while, and I wanted to ask the reason several times, but I couldn't help but say it.
Seeing Hao's uncomfortable appearance, Qiye Shenyue suddenly smiled slightly: "You, don't you ask why?" ”
Hao's forehead was covered with fragrant sweat, and he said, "My subordinates don't dare." As long as it is the will of Lord Stygian, Hao will obey unconditionally.
There was a wry smile in the eyes of the Seven Nights Dark Moon, and she took out a green crossbow arrow from her sleeve and handed it to Hao.
Hao raised her head in surprise and looked at the arrow that Yang Yanfeng shot at her.
On the sharp arrow, the faint green cold light flashed, hideous and terrifying - the arrow is poisonous?
She looked at the arrow, but in her ears she heard the Seven Nights Moon quietly say: "This arrow is smeared with a kind of poison called Smoke Soul Dream Scattering." This toxin is the most lethal poison of our demons, and there is no cure for it. I...... I just don't want to lose you again. ”
"Lord Stygian Moon........ "Haze raised his head, a flash of red on his face.
Seven Nights Stygian Moon raised her eyes to meet her and said, "Our names are master servants, and we are really sisters. And now, I have nothing to lose but you. So I ..... Try not to put yourself at risk. Please - forgive me! ”
