Chapter V
Separated from the original fire, Zhou Zheng rushed back to the camp with a heavy heart. At this time, Cheng E had just rushed back.
In the Great Array of Covering the Heavens, since there were no rules of heaven and earth to use, and no spiritual power of heaven and earth to deploy, Cheng E could only rely on his own cultivation to support him. was really embarrassed by Xue Jiu and Xin Si, and there were many colors on his body. Fortunately, the Heaven-Covering Array suddenly failed, and he escaped, leaving his opponent behind and hurried back to the camp.
Zhou Zheng didn't care about letting him treat his wounds, and hurriedly summoned him and Yingyu to the big tent.
"I ran into the original fire, and he exchanged a message for the demon pill." Zhou Zheng saw the door. This news was told to him when Yuan Huo left, and the specific details of Yuan Huo were not clear, but he only reminded him to be cautious tomorrow.
"What's the news?"
"Did you give it to him?"
Cheng E and Ying Yu both asked anxiously, but the focus of their questioning was different.
"Demon Pill, I gave half of it!" Zhou Zheng replied first, "Because this news is worth it!" At the same time, he also promised that he would never reveal the demon pill he got from us. ”
As a member of the demon clan, Ying Yu subconsciously still hopes that all the demon pills can be used by the demon clan, and he doesn't want the demon clan to also get a piece of the pie. However, Zhou Zheng's answer made him realize the seriousness of the matter, and he immediately adjusted his mentality. He knew that the safety of Zhou Zheng and Xiao Yu was more important than anything else!
"Zhenjun, what the hell is the news?" Cheng E asked again.
"Cheng E, let me ask you, is there a three-way intersection ten miles before the bank of the weak water river?"
"Yes!" Cheng E replied without hesitation. He is so familiar with this road that he doesn't have to think about it to know where it is.
"Except for the main road, which leads to the weak water river, where do the other two lead?"
"This?" Cheng E hesitated. He had never walked through those two forks in the road, so he didn't know very well.
"To the north, that is, to the right, the fork in the road, is a dead-end road. I heard that it leads to a secret space. If you can't find the right path, you will fall into the abyss and the sea of depravity! No matter how highly cultivated a person is, he can't turn back, he can only bury himself at the bottom of the sea, and he can't be reborn forever! However, even so, it still attracts many monks from the three clans to explore every year, but none of them can come back! ”
"Why?" Zhou Zheng was surprised. Why are so many people still going forward in such a dangerous place?
"Those people are crazy!" Ying Yu also knows that place, as a native of here, the information is more detailed than Cheng E's.
"It's mostly about the legends of that secret place. Legend has it that it was once a dojo where a group of immortals discussed the Tao and the scriptures. There are not only countless magic elixirs and rare treasures in it, but also the Great Dao scriptures that help to ascend to immortality are preserved. Most of the people who go there are people who are about to end their lives, or who are trapped in bottlenecks all year round and cannot break through, or who plan to get something for nothing and speculate. Anyway, hundreds of people die in there every year! ”
For the secret space, Zhou Zheng was not too interested. Although he is in urgent need of materials for body shaping now, he will never do anything that costs his life to find materials, which is not worth the loss!
"So, what about the one that leads to the south?"
Cheng E shook his head, he didn't know. Looking at Ying Yu again, he also shook his head.
"There doesn't seem to be anything special about that road, and there aren't many people walking it. I don't know exactly where it leads! ”
Hearing Ying Yu's answer, Zhou Zheng's brows furrowed even tighter!
"Hara Huo told me that he overheard someone arranging to push us to a fork in the road tomorrow. He didn't hear it clearly, but, listening to the tone, he definitely intended to kill us! ”
"Who is so bold?" Cheng E felt incredible! "If you want to say that the demons have this arrangement, I still believe it! However, it's not a demon race, is it a demon race? ”
"Why don't you say it's you Terran?" Ying Yu said angrily.
"Big Brother Win, I don't mean anything else!" Cheng E hurriedly explained, "The true monarch is the true monarch of the Law and Punishment Division, and the people of the human race dare not confront the Law and Punishment Division head-on after eating the bear's heart and leopard guts!" Besides, within the human race, there are only a few immortals, and how many can cultivate higher than you and mine? Even if they have the heart of rebellion, they don't have the strength! ”
Ying Yu naturally understands this truth, but after all, he is a demon clan, and he is suspected of being a demon clan for no reason, and he can't bend his heart for a while. He waved his hand at Cheng E, indicating that this matter is over!
However, Zhou Zheng doesn't think so. The human race still has a place where the immortals are in the clouds! He immediately thought if he had exposed his flaws, and the Law and Punishment Division or the Divine Demon Mirror were going to do it to him?
Regarding the suspicion that the Law and Punishment Division and the God and Demon Mirror were doing things to heaven and earth, he did not tell Ying Yu and Cheng E, and he and the Law and Punishment Division were separated, let alone let more people know.
So, he's just meditating on a person, analyzing the possibilities. In the end, he decisively ruled out the suspicion of the Law and Punishment Division and the Divine Demon Mirror.
He doesn't have the slightest act of disobedience now, and even has made great contributions to the Department of Law and Punishment several times. At this time, even if the master and the god master were suspicious of him, they would only recall him in time. I will never intercept him halfway!
Excluding the human race and the demon race, now only the demon race remains. Who in the demon clan is so determined to kill themselves? The young master of the Black Dragon family? Or the son of the Kirin family? Also, why?
If it is said that it is still for the sake of marrying the Holy Snow Princess, Zhou Zheng has come to participate in the recruitment competition in the open, and at this time he will intercept and kill himself, once he fails, the force of interception will never be allowed to participate in the recruitment of relatives again! It's a lose-lose stupid ploy, and no one would be so stupid!
Is it for the demon pill? However, the demon clan didn't know what the demon pill was doing to him. Besides, if they were in such a hurry to force themselves into a Jedi, if they didn't have a demon pill, wouldn't they be in vain? When the time comes, how do they plan to end up?
They are also cultivators of the sixth layer of the Immortal Rank, do they plan to kill themselves even if they injure the enemy by 1,000 and lose 800 themselves, so as to cover up their crimes? Wouldn't that be able to fight the fox and make trouble for himself?
Zhou Zheng couldn't figure it out, but he was still quite cautious about the news. Just in case, he first asked Ying Yu to find a reason to hold Xiao Yu to him, and he and Xiao Yu were not separated at any time before crossing the weak water and entering Kunlun Xu.
Secondly, it is to make Ying Yu and that group of elite guards highly vigilant and always vigilant against emergencies. If you encounter an accident, hold your position, and never attack easily!
In the end, he asked Cheng E to keep an eye on Miss Yao. If she was a spy sent to infiltrate her ranks, she would never be allowed a chance to signal to her accomplices!
Thinking that there was nothing to be missed for the time being, Zhou Zheng asked the two of them to take a break immediately. Raise your spirits tomorrow and go all out to prepare for the enemy!
The next day, the crowd marched quickly and quickly for a morning with high vigilance, and everything was calm. I waited until the three-way intersection, but there was still no movement at all. Everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. After walking another three miles, Zhou Zheng ordered to rest in place. With such a high-intensity march, no one can stand it! Besides, if you raise your legs for six or seven miles, even if you are in danger, you can quickly enter Kunlun Xu.
However, the terrain here still made Zhou Zheng a little uneasy, with mountains on both sides, and only one road passed. In such a place, if someone is blocking the road in front, it is indeed a situation where no one can open it!
It's just that Zhou Zheng is not very worried about this. Not to mention his own cultivation, Cheng E is the third layer of the immortal rank, and Yingyu and Lan Qin are both the first layer of the immortal level. Such a combination, even if it touches the eighth layer of the immortal level, it can be hard steel for a while!
"Is the news of that guy from the original fire fake?" Cheng E muttered quietly.
Ying Yu also nodded with a serious face, "Zhou Zheng may have been deceived by that guy!" ”
"Humph!" Cheng E snorted angrily, "The next time I meet them, I will never spare them!" ”
At this moment, suddenly the ground trembled slightly. Cheng E quickly flew to the roof of the car and looked into the distance. When he saw the situation clearly, he couldn't help but turn pale.
"Zhenjun, it's an army of demon beasts, there are tens of thousands of them!"
Zhou Zheng also saw it clearly, these demon beasts were all big demon beasts with huge bodies and strong bodies, and their cultivation was above the peak of the Heavenly Order!
So many demon beasts rushed towards their side in such groups, and on the premise that they couldn't fly in the air, they had nowhere to hide but to crash hard! However, Rao is few of them are immortal-level cultivators, and in the face of this overwhelming impact, they will definitely be seriously injured or even fall in the end!
"Zhou Zheng, there is a high hillside one mile behind the three-way road, let's retreat quickly and hide on the hillside!" Ying Yu shouted anxiously.
Zhou Zheng's heart moved, and he immediately caught the smell of conspiracy. But, now, there is no other way but to do it!
Everyone panicked, quickly turned the horse's head, and quickly evacuated to the rear.
However, before they reached the three-way intersection, a group of tens of thousands of sturdy demon beasts rushed towards them in the distance.
It was obviously too late to rush to the high soil slope that was still a mile away! Now the only way out is to hide in the side of the fork in the road and block the intersection with a shield wall formed by a carriage!
Which one to choose? Zhou Zheng is also difficult to choose! But time waits for no one, and no matter how late it is, many people here will turn into puree!
South! Zhou Zheng's first choice was the fork in the road in the south. Because, no one will choose a way to cut off for themselves! That's the equivalent of self-defeat!
Zhou Zhenggang wanted to open his mouth, but he had a cold war for no reason! No, there must be a trap in the south!
No matter who makes such a big move in the monster attack, they are forcing themselves to turn to the way to the south. Normal people would choose there. But is the fork in the road to the south really safe?
Zhou Zheng took a closer look, and there were imperceptible spatial fluctuations at the intersection! Someone set up the formation in advance! As long as you go in, you will be trapped by the formation!
Zhou Zheng broke out in a cold sweat. He quickly ordered everyone to turn to the north fork in the road, and quickly stacked seven or eight carriages together at the intersection to block the impact of the demon beasts!
These monsters are not terrifying, as long as they can block their first wave of momentum and slow them down, everyone will have the ability to knock these monsters away and kill them all!
Sure enough, seeing that the demon beasts on both sides were about to collide with each other, the demon beasts leading the two sides howled rapidly, causing the demon beasts to slow down. Then, the two teams form a pair, and then organize the team to prepare to storm the carriage at the northern intersection.
Zhou Zheng naturally wouldn't let go of such a stall, he fled to the carriage, waved the long knife is five consecutive slashes, and then, without giving the beasts time to breathe, one blow after another punched out, hundreds of demon beasts were forced to retreat by him, and suddenly poured into the southern intersection.
It's strange to say, as long as you cross that intersection, these monsters all disappear out of thin air!
Cheng E and Yingyu who saw this scene were also shocked into a cold sweat! Just now, the two of them had a lot of complaints about Zhou Zheng's choice of the northern fork, and if Zhou Zheng hadn't insisted, they would definitely turn to the southern fork.
It turns out that there is a trap over there!
Without the power of the collision, no matter how many demon beasts there are, for Zhou Zhengji, they are also lambs to be slaughtered!
At the moment when Zhou Zheng made a move, Cheng E and Ying Yu also did it together, Lan Qin did not hesitate to join in, and even Miss Yao, who had not fully recovered from her injuries, picked up the feather sickle and joined the battle. Those elite wolf army are even more desperate to fight hard!
Everyone was merciless and went on a killing spree. Whether it is to kill or force the demon beasts to enter the fork in the south, in just a short period of effort, thousands of demon beasts will return to the loess or disappear.
At this moment, the remaining demon beasts were frightened. I don't know who pulled out his legs first and ran, and then he scattered in a panic. There were hundreds of unlucky monsters that plunged into the fork in the road to the south and were never seen again!
"Win envoy, you immediately take people to the bank of the weak water river, and carefully inspect along the way to see if there are any traces of demon beasts gathering again! If so, disperse immediately! ”
"Yes!" Hearing the winning envoy, Ying Yu knew that he was in a hurry to call Zhou Zheng's name just now, but when Miss Yao heard it, he hurriedly knelt down, "I was in a hurry just now, call the name of Zhenjun, and the minister should die!" Please also atone for your sins! ”
"Win the envoy, please get up! If something is urgent, how can I blame the envoy! Since you have to do enough to do a show, Zhou Zheng hurriedly helped Ying Yu up, "This trip is dangerous all the way, please be more careful with the special envoy!" ”
"Xie Zhenjun!" Ying Yu knew that there was no delay, and after the mistake, he took a part of the elite and ran quickly towards the bank of the weak water river.
"Cheng E, prepare the carriage, the bad ones are abandoned on the side of the road, the dowry that can be packed away will be together, and the ones that can't be packed will be thrown away.
You take the envoy lady and Miss Yao to go first, and I will break it off! ”
Cheng Egang wanted to fight for his own break, but was directly interrupted by Zhou Zheng, "My cultivation is the highest, and it is easier to get out alone!" Don't worry about me! Come on! ”
Originally, Zhou Zheng also wanted to return the little white wolf to Lan Qin and let her take it away, but after thinking about it, he felt that it might be safer for him to carry it! Therefore, with Xiao Yu in his arms, he rode on a tall horse and cautiously walked at the end of the line.
The group rushed to the bank of the weak water river again. The road ahead has been cleared by Yingyu, and there are no traces of demon beasts, and everyone's speed is fast!
But as soon as he had walked two miles, an old man on crutches suddenly appeared in front of him and blocked the way. The old man had white hair and white beard, but his face was covered by spells and he couldn't see clearly.
Cheng E did not slow down, but quickly whipped his horse and drove the carriage towards the old man!
In this kind of place, if you are so timid and dare not show your true face, you will definitely not be a good person!
The old man didn't dodge or dodge, just when the carriage was about to hit him, he jumped over the carriage lightly and went straight to Zhou Zheng!
His purpose is obvious, it is Zhou Zheng!
