Chapter 250: Three Days
At this time, Gu Chensheng's back did not show anything unusual due to the cover of the armor, but under his armor, the position where it was hit by the high-level dry soul had already bulged with a blue and purple scar.
"Damn, damn..." The scabbard in his hand was really used as a crutch, and Gu Chensheng was swearing in his mouth to relieve the pain in his back.
On the side of the gray mist in the distance, a few dry souls could be faintly seen wandering, leaving the territory of high-level dry souls, Gu Chensheng's situation became dangerous again, it seemed that he sensed the difference in Gu Chensheng's breath, and several ordinary dry souls walked towards Gu Chensheng with a slightly cold gray qi.
Of course, although Gu Chensheng's back injury was serious, it was not enough that he couldn't even deal with a few ordinary dry souls.
An emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, let alone a wounded camel. The withered soul is naturally not a horse, of course Gu Chensheng is much stronger than a camel, if he can't even handle this little thing well, Gu Chensheng will really live up to many people's expectations.
"At least I will live up to the Demon King's predecessors who helped me get through the most dangerous position, although I also let myself be injured. ”
Thinking of this, Gu Chensheng continued to use the scabbard as a crutch, stepped past the withered soul that was knocked down by himself, and continued to walk towards the outside of the ridge tremblingly.
...
...
The night is approaching, and the lights of the camp outside the border city are gradually rising, dotted with stars, and those special tools that use true qi to shine are not available in the border city.
The border city, which is far from the prosperous scene of Fancheng, reflects this atmosphere, but it also has a special taste.
"There are three days to go. "General Fan calculated Gu Chensheng's maximum return date.
If Gu Chensheng hadn't come back after three days, then they wouldn't have used the jade seal's strategy to attack their hearts, so they would directly choose to wash the small city in blood.
This period was given to Gu Chen, and at the same time it was given to himself. The reason is very simple, a month later, Emperor Qiu, the most powerful human being in the world, will come to Fancheng in person.
At the same time, the rulers of the east, west and south will also come to Fancheng to watch this quadrennial ceremony.
Leaving Emperor Qiu aside, the other three continents are not allowed to enter the country through the city.
Therefore, the border city stationed in the Northern Continent is the first stop of the Three Continents.
Since it symbolizes the glory of the mainland, there must be no war in the border city at that time.
That's why General Fan came up with a strategy to steal the jade seal and attack the enemy's heart.
The impact of the war will cause the border city to be filled with the smell of blood and decay, which can only be erased by the years, although the general left enough time to use some artificial means to eliminate these smells in advance, but it is inevitable that there will be neighboring continents will come in advance, and it is not a good thing for rumors to reach the ears of Emperor Qiu, especially the Eastern Continent, which has not been getting along well.
"This time, it's Ling Huang and Wei Dongmou who came first, what a bad neighbor who can't get rid of it. General Fan thought with an unkind face.
On the map, although the Western Continent and the Eastern Continent are neighbors of the Northern Continent, due to the natural separation between the Western Continent and the Northern Continent, they have always been safe and sound.
This is not the case with the Northern Continent and the Eastern Continent, where there have been many fights between the two continents over the issue of expanding their territory, and although there are no overt disputes now, the grudges accumulated by their ancestors are not so easy to resolve.
"After all, it's still a matter of strength. General Fan sighed, as if he suddenly remembered something, and slapped the top of the tent above his head, and the thick palm wind mixed with true qi instantly shattered the innocent tent.
The soldiers patrolling the battalion rushed to hear the sound, and looked at the general standing in the center and was a little confused for a while.
"General?" asked the squad leader.
"It's okay, keep patrolling. General Fan waved his hand and sat on the ground.
"Go, set up a tent for the general. The squad leader could see that General Fan was in a bad mood, and whispered to the soldiers beside him, and he planned to continue patrolling.
"What are you doing in the camp?" General Fan asked, as if talking to himself.
The squad leader straightened his waist and said in a not loud but clear word: "It's cold. ”
"Why do you have to set up camp when it's cold? General Fan continued, but the question seemed a little naïve.
The squad leader hesitated for a moment and replied, "... The tent shelters from the cold winds. ”
"Hahahaha. General Fan seemed to realize the ridiculousness of his problem just now, and after signaling the team leader to continue patrolling the building, he looked around at the camp tent that had been destroyed by himself for a week and muttered: "It's really naïve!"
"The tent can shelter from the wind and rain, but it can't block my random palm. The border city could defend against foreign enemies, but it couldn't even stop Emperor Qiu's pace for a moment. General Fan said in a voice that only he could hear, looking at the workload of the soldiers due to his casual momentariness, he couldn't help but touch his head in embarrassment, and joined in the work of erecting his own camp in the sound of the soldiers repeatedly refusing.
......
......
Gu Chensheng walked out of the Dry Soul Ridge, and after making sure that there was no danger for the time being, he took off the armor on his upper body carelessly, and he couldn't help but grin in pain during the process.
The wound on his back was very inconvenient to medicate by himself, so he could only apply some casually, put on the armor after bandaging, and took out some water and drank two sips.
"Senior Demon King, where are you going next?" Gu Chensheng asked aloud.
"Go forward, there's an altar. The Demon King still responded briefly, as if he was really busy with something.
Gu Chensheng looked up and looked ahead, there was no gray mist on the Dry Soul Ridge that obstructed his vision, faintly there was really a building not far in front, looking at it, it should be the altar in the mouth of the demon king.
Poured the remaining water on his head one by one, and the cool droplets of water flowed down Gu Chensheng's hair, making his spirit follow for a while, and the swelling on his back, with the exertion of the medicinal power, was no longer so painful.
This section of the road is quite smooth, and there are no unexpected situations, but it is in line with what the little girl said, it is the place to go out.
The closer he got to the altar, the more Gu Chensheng could see that this was the entrance, but he didn't know why he was so unlucky that he was actually sent to the depths of the Soul Refining Bell by the jade seal.
Gu Chensheng sighed, sometimes there is such a thing as luck, and he really can't complain about others.
The altar is large and dilapidated, with many collapsed stone pillars and moss-covered floors, indicating that this place has been a place for a long time.
Walked a few more steps.
"It's really big here...... Gu Chensheng complained, looking at his current appearance, holding a cane (scabbard) with one hand, his slightly bent back because of the pain relief, combined with the words he complained just now, he looked like an old man.
