Chapter 460: Swinging the army to break through the river, the dark shadow of the divine capital appears
"Run, run!"
Jiang Lin City, there was already chaos.
The people shivered and hid in their homes, not daring to light the candles, and the dust fell in a stream, looking out the window at the dark and roaring.
On the streets, the soldiers of the Jin army were also in a panic.
Even if they lit the torches, they couldn't see further away, and could only hear loud roars.
What's even more terrifying is that news came from the government that the entire military fort had been razed to the ground, and all the ancestors had been killed.
Where did Marshal Cao Yuan go?
He's an earth fairy!
Suddenly, the sky was bright, as if the sun was in the sky, and everyone's eyes were white, trying to find a corner to hide.
The monks guarding the banner of the array altar were even more frightened, and they only felt a flash of golden light, and the array altar collapsed with a bang.
It's the Earth Immortal of the Yan Army!
Although there were no large number of casualties, and although there were still Five Elements Fort on the periphery, the military spirit of the Jianglin defenders had already collapsed.
Of course, the greater losses were the military forts outside the city.
The giant beast roared, the hill-like battle tower collided, the sky was full of arrows, and the Yan army was heavily riding in sight...
Dugu Yi is well versed in the art of war, and knows that when he occupies the right time, place and people, he must go all out, and must not let the enemy have a chance to breathe, so all armies will come up with all means.
What shocked the defenders was that the formation of the military fort and the dragon vein were separated, and the power was greatly reduced in a short period of time.
It's like a two-person fist competition, one person sees the enemy attacking, and just about to swing his fist to fight back, but finds that his waist is gagged, and he is naturally beaten by a fat beating.
In less than half a pillar of incense, nearly half of the military forts collapsed.
Under this terrifying pressure, the Jin army finally collapsed.
Some people threw away their weapons and begged for mercy, some people turned around and ran, the military formation was completely chaotic, and the children of the families who supervised the army could not control the decline even if they beheaded several people.
The little soldier Hu Si shrank in the corner of the wall with his head in his arms, the surrounding masonry collapsed, his ears roared constantly, and his eyes were full of fear.
His mind went blank at the moment.
As soon as the children of the prison army killed a few deserters, they were splashed with flesh and blood by a few flying arrows...
The wooden box on the ground has long been shattered, and the white flowers and silver are rolling all over the ground, some people don't want to stuff their lives into their arms, but more people don't care about it at all...
At this moment, a thunderous roar sounded in the sky:
"Cao Yuan has abandoned the city and fled!"
"All the ancestors of the family have been beheaded, and those who descend will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
"Those who descend will not be killed!"
The sound of mountains and tsunamis came from all directions.
Hu Si couldn't care about distinguishing, hurriedly threw away his weapon, and begged for mercy on the ground.
One pass two, two pass three, the Jin army's morale had already collapsed, and after a while, the battlefield was full of surrenderers.
There are many children of the family, and when the law lineage worship saw that the situation was not good, they got up and fled to the city, but they were strangled by the Yan army's iron cavalry in a blink of an eye.
Gradually, the shouting and killing on the battlefield gradually stopped.
On the wharf of Jianglincheng, there are already crowds of people.
The defenders, the children of the family, the legal lineage of the rivers and lakes, the wealthy merchants... At this moment, there was chaos, and everyone was scrambling for ships to flee.
In the chaos, some people were stabbed, some people used illusions to provoke a riot to get out of themselves, and many people were squeezed into the water.
The Sky Survey Treasure Ship stands quietly above Jianglin City.
At this moment, the Chenghuang Mansion Jun Temple has been broken, the twelve earth branches of the great array have dissipated, and the sky above is defenseless.
Of course, Wang Xuan did not order an attack.
The defenders of the city were so frightened that they did not dare to resist at all, and even those who had the courage opened the city gates and surrendered the city.
As for those who fled on the dock, Wang Xuan didn't care, these people would naturally spread panic and rumors in all directions, causing turmoil in the hearts of the people, and it would be easier to attack the city in the future.
On the deck, golden lights flashed, and Guangyuan Zhenjun and the others returned to their positions and got up one after another.
"Senior, did Cao Yuan leave a clue?"
Wang Xuan had been informed of the situation and asked when he saw this.
Guangyuan Zhenjun shook his head slightly, "Cao Yuan, the lord of the East China Sea Demon Island, these two escaped, after all, it was a disaster, Lao Dao will go back to Wuliang Mountain, and go to the shrine to find his whereabouts." ”
"You can temporarily follow the army forward, once you receive the old news, you will go to intercept and kill, once the southern expedition is settled, I will go to break that? Mausoleum of the Emperor! ”
"As the Sect Master said."
Several Earth Immortals nodded in agreement.
Guangyuan Zhenjun said, then took out the Qingwei Xuantian Seal, and in an instant, the golden light shrouded in the sky, and disappeared into the clouds in the blink of an eye...
…………
Shendu, the imperial city.
After the heat is over, the beginning of autumn is solstice, although the weather is still hot, and even the sun is a little hotter, but there is a cool breeze in the morning and evening.
"Jiangzhou victory!"
"Jiangzhou victory!"
The sound of horses' hooves passed along the heavenly street.
The pedestrians on the road turned their heads one after another, looking at the commander who was galloping on horseback, some cheered, and some talked excitedly.
With the joint efforts of the royal family and the legal lineages of various families, the soaring prices have finally stabilized temporarily, coupled with the difficulty of the Jiuqu Tianhe, it is natural to unite as one.
Good news is frequent, and even if there are contradictions, they are covered up.
Outside the Wuji Hall of the Imperial City, the commander came with good news, and the crown prince Duguxi just nodded slightly, with no joy on his face.
There is a message of royal Shinto incense, and the situation of the southern expedition, he is naturally clear, and specially sent people to pass the order, just to calm the hearts of the people.
At this time, it was dusk, Dugu Xi looked at the sky dyed red by the setting sun, his eyes were cloudy, and then he gritted his teeth, pushed open the door of the temple and walked in.
In the main hall, sandalwood is curling and unusually deserted.
On the throne, Emperor Yan Dugu Honggon robe crown, sitting alone in the hall, his face was pale, his white hair was dry, full of black spots, and his eyes were cloudy and there was no trace of life.
The consequences of planting a foundation to continue life are far more serious than imagined.
The body is like a dead corpse, and the soul is almost dissipated.
Dugu Xi's lips trembled, and he stepped forward to carefully help Emperor Yan tidy up his appearance and cut off the sharp nails that grew like zombies.
At this time, he was in charge of the country, and there was no difference between sitting on the throne.
Now, I am more and more aware of the difficulties of my father.
Emperor Yanhuang Dugu Hong is not outstanding in the clan, his cultivation talent is not as good as Dugu Xi, and the way of leading the army is not as good as Dugu Yi.
Duguxi knew that his father was strong and he would not want to be seen in his miserable appearance, so he forbade the palace maids to approach, and only he and the queen took care of them.
Thinking of this, Duguxi's eyes suddenly darkened, "Father, you don't deserve this crime, and Master Wang shouldn't die..."
There is Duguxi, coupled with his current identity, the catastrophe facing this world, Guangyuan Zhenjun and others will naturally not hide it from him.
Nine ghost kingdoms, ? Dynasty, Heavenly Court Immortal Book...
All kinds of secrets have made Duguxi reluctant to give up these days.
As soon as I thought that the catastrophe would come three years later, there would be little life, and everything in front of me would be reduced to rubble, and the joy of the great victory of the Southern Expedition would be diluted.
In the main hall, there was silence for a while.
Duguxi looked at Emperor Yan, hoping that at this time, the heroic and resolute father emperor could give him some response, just like the last time when the Jiuqu Tianhe was in trouble.
However, at this time, Emperor Yan was almost like a dead man.
After a long time, Duguxi gritted his teeth, got up and walked out of the main hall, and led people to a back hall of the palace.
Originally, this was the so-called cold palace.
The last Emperor Yan liked beauty, and the concubines who had fallen out of favor in the palace were all beaten here, and some of them were in the legal lineage, and there were several cases of witchcraft and poison curses to kill people.
After Emperor Yan Duguhong took office, he reduced the expenses in the palace and released the elderly concubines, and this place became increasingly deserted, and then there were supernatural reports, and people who approached would stay away from this place in a daze.
Since then, rumors have spread in the palace, but Yanhuang Duguhong only killed a few rumor-mongers, so he didn't pay attention to them.
This palace has gradually become a taboo in the imperial city.
Dugu Xi looked at the cold palace, his eyes were a little complicated, and then he waved his hand, and the master and the servant beside him all bowed their hands.
He took a deep breath and strode forward.
Squeak~
When he came to the front of the temple, the heavy door slowly opened.
There was no one around, and the silence was terrible.
Duguxi was not surprised, and took a few steps forward.
The door of the hall was slammed shut, and then the candles in the hall were lit, emitting a strange green light, and a statue of a god in the hall turned his head at the same time, with a hideous face, emitting divine light.
If Wang Xuan is here, he will find that these gods are all Liujia god generals, but they are much larger and denser, and there are thousands of them.
This is the top secret of the royal family.
Since the opening of the wasteland, the royal family has amassed a large amount of resources, but the treasury will embezzle most of it every once in a while, and all of it will be used to refine this thing.
In the past, when Duguxi came here, he would always be frightened, but now he was furious, and he arched his hand slightly: "Please also ask Xianzun to show up, I have something important to ask below!" ”
Rumble!
Two flames rose up.
I saw a dim light and shadow above the main hall, dressed in a black robe, his face was blurred, at a glance, he looked like a man and a woman, an old man and a young man, but he couldn't remember anything.
"What's the point of finding the deity?"
The dark shadow did not move, and strange voices echoed in the hall.
Prince Duguxi bowed his head and arched his hand: "Xianzun and my father have made a blood contract, we will worship with the power of the whole country, and Xianzun will protect Dayan from the enemy attack from all directions, can it ever be counted?" ”
"Of course."
The black shadow said in a muffled voice: "The Divine Dao blood contract, thousands of living beings have resentment and resentment, how can the deity regret it." ”
Prince Duguxi raised his head slowly, his eyes were full of grief and indignation, "Immortal Venerable is a good fighter, not from the Quartet, if the enemy is from other realms, three years later, the Nine Ghost Kingdom will come, will Immortal Venerable still help?!" ”
The black shadow was silent for a moment, "You already know, when you know that the rules of heaven are strict, thousands of years ago, the deity was to help the Great Zhou, violated the rules of heaven, and luckily resurrected the remnant soul. ”
"I won't help again this time, these Liujia gods will help you escape overseas in three years, maybe you can escape with your life, and you won't live up to your father's grace to save you."
The crown prince Dugu Xi finally confirmed it completely, and said with a pale face: "Immortal Venerable, is there no way to save you?" ”
"Nope."
The black shadow said in a deep voice: "Do you know what the Nine Ghost Ghost Nation is? The descendants of the dynasty will know that they are the orthodoxy of this realm, and after three years, the seal of the ghost kingdom will be broken, and the heavenly machine will be chaotic, and the deity will take the opportunity to leave this realm. ”
"Let's go, ten thousand years of cause and effect, there will be an end to the day, and the deity only has a wisp of remnant soul left, and I don't want to get involved in this matter."
After that, the wind suddenly blew in the hall.
The crown prince Duguxi was still about to speak, but when he opened his eyes again, he was already outside the hall.
He looked at the closed door of the temple, his face cloudy, and then waved his sleeves fiercely, and turned to leave.
Back in the East Palace, he gritted his teeth, "Come on, send a message of incense, please ask Uncle Wang to return to his senses." ”
At the same time, on Wuliang Mountain, Guangyuan Zhenjun also set up the Sheji Jiao Altar again, stargazing and helping the people, looking for the whereabouts of Cao Yuan's two earth immortals.
If he had done it before, he would naturally not have been able to do it, after all, this method was to use the Starlight and Earth Qi induction to detect the Southern Jin Dynasty.
But now, with the help of Jing Ming, the leader of the Xuanyuan Sect who was originally in charge of the Shinto, they have already done something on the Shinto of the Southern Jin Dynasty in the Great Wei Emperor's Mausoleum, so they can see Middle-earth.
Soon, the earth qi and the starlight shone, forming a map of thousands of miles of mountains and rivers, Guangyuan Zhenjun waved his magic sword, frowned, and said: "That demon island master is hiding in the forbidden land of the Dragon Temple, but this Cao Yuan... Why did you go to southern Xinjiang? ”
"Brother Shen!"
"Hmm!"
Shen Changqing walked on the road, and when he met someone he knew well, he would say hello to each other or nod his head.
But it doesn't matter who it is.
There was no superfluous expression on everyone's face, as if they were very indifferent to everything.
on this.
Shen Changqing is used to it.
Because this is the Demon Suppression Division, it is an institution that maintains the stability of Great Qin, and its main responsibility is to kill demons and monsters, and of course there are some other side jobs.
Arguably.
In the Demon Suppression Division, everyone has a lot of blood on their hands.
When a person is accustomed to seeing life and death, then he will become indifferent to many things.
When he first came to this world, Shen Changqing was a little uncomfortable, but over time he got used to it.
The Demon Suppression Division is huge.
The people who can stay in the Demon Suppression Division are all powerful masters, or people who have the potential to become masters.
Shen Changqing belongs to the latter.
Among them, the Demon Suppression Division is divided into two professions, one is the town guard and the other is the demon exterminator.
Anyone who enters the Demon Suppression Division starts with the lowest level of demon slayer.
Then step by step, he is expected to become a town guard.
Shen Changqing's predecessor was a trainee demon slayer in the Demon Suppression Division, and he was also the lowest level of the demon slayer envoys.
Have memories of the predecessor.
He is also very familiar with the environment of the Demon Suppression Division.
It didn't take long for Shen Changqing to stop in front of an attic.
Unlike other places full of slaughter, the attic here seems to stand out from the crowd, and in the bloody Demon Suppression Division, it presents a different tranquility.
At this time, the attic door is open, and there are occasional people entering and exiting.
Shen Changqing only hesitated for a moment, and then stepped in.
Access to the attic.
The environment has changed in vain.
A burst of ink fragrance mixed with the faint smell of blood came to his face, making his brow furrow instinctively, but quickly stretched.
The smell of blood on everyone's body in the Demon Suppression Division is almost impossible to clean.
