Chapter Eighty-Four: Breakout? Pounce!
When night fell, the entire Great Wilderness Continent fell into darkness, and only a bright moon hung in the night sky.
The ancient city was in the west of the ruined city, and Chu Huan and the others first broke through from the south, and then traveled four or five miles before turning around and moving west.
To the south, the reason was to delay the maze so that they could reach the ancient city on time.
Coming out of the Ruined City two hours ago, at their current pace, they won't be able to reach the Ancient City until at least tomorrow after noon.
It is not easy to hide your whereabouts in the barren desert, because a foot on the ground will leave deep footprints, but fortunately, there is Zhuo Feng.
Zhuo Feng walked behind Chu Huan and the others, and as he continued to chant the incantation, a tornado rolled up the sand and blew towards the surface of the desert, and soon those footprints were covered by the wind and sand.
After walking for two or three miles like this, a few people did not deliberately conceal their itinerary and let their footprints appear on the desert.
It will take at least two hours for the coalition forces to find out that the footprints have disappeared and expand the search area to discover their whereabouts.
Zhuo Feng cleaned up the traces in the back, looking at his effortless appearance, Chu Huan asked Xiao Man on the side with some curiosity: "If he is a genetic mutant, at least a high-level genetic evolutionary." β
From Le Ning to the Ruined City, Chu Huan has seen not a hundred but eighty genetic mutants, more than half of them are in the low-level gene fusion stage, low-level mutant genes can only enhance the strength and speed of human beings, etc., there will be some basic physiological characteristics of mutant genes, there are not many middle-level genes that can make real mutations, as for high-level gene evolutionists, Chu Huan has not seen them yet.
But these days he's also heard about the abilities of genetic evolutionaries, who are said to be unpredictable and can call the wind and rain.
"He's not genetically mutant." Xiao Man glanced back at Zhuo Feng and explained to Chu Huan: "He uses divine arts. β
"Magic?" Chu Huan was surprised, he had seen the ability of the white-bearded bishop of the temple, this Zhuo Feng turned out to be a clergyman?
He's so young, black-robed? Purple robe? Thinking like this, Chu Huan asked in a low voice, "What is the so-called divine art?" β
"God is the Tao, and the Tao is natural." Xiaoman explained: "Have you heard of ancient myths and stories? Those immortals use divine magic, but we are human beings, not gods, and it is an exaggeration of the temple to call divine magic, if you want me to explain, you can understand it as Taoism. β
"The Tao is the Tao, the art is the art, and the Tao should be talked about separately."
"Some of the people in this temple have studied it all their lives and haven't studied it clearly, and I won't be able to explain it to you for a while."
"You just remember that the Dao is divided into three levels: Dao, Magic, and Technique, and the Dao is the highest, and the Pope is now in the second stage."
"It's like a temple, it's good at fire and thunder in the five elements."
Xiao Man talked about the secret technique of the temple, and Xue Yue, who was a little curious about it, also came around, and saw Chu Huan and Xue Yue listening to each other, Xiao Man, who didn't want to say more, thought about it and continued to explain:
"Legend has it that this continent was chaotic before, the sky and the earth were not separated, the whole continent was pitch black, there was no sun, moon and stars, day and night cold and heat would not alternate, there was no wind, rain, thunder and lightning in the sky, and there were no grass, trees, mountains, people, birds, insects and beasts on the ground."
"At this time, a stream of aura is coiled and running in the chaos, so water is born from Taiyi, fire is born from Taichu, wood is born from Taishi, gold is born from Taisu, and earth is born from Taiji."
"The five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth come from this."
"Then there is the revival of aura, the appearance of immortals, some of them are aura transformation, some are animal and plant cultivation into refinement, there are too many things that can be said here."
"The temple calls this period the period of antiquity, that is, the period of myths and legends."
"In addition to antiquity, there was the Middle Ages, the lower antiquity, and then God created man." Xiao Man said and smiled: "Have you ever thought about it, how did the first human appear?" β
"Peiguo said that fish evolved, what fish happened to evolve a man and a woman so coincidentally?"
"Don't talk about fish, before the emergence of human civilization, there were hundreds of millions of years of prehistoric dinosaur era, there were no humans at that time, dinosaurs lived on this continent for hundreds of millions of years, and they did not evolve into humans for such a long time."
"The question of the origin of mankind has been debated until now, so I won't talk about it." Xiao Man said and remembered the past and looked at Chu Huan:
"You've been struck by lightning once."
Xiao Man continued to make a long story short: "That thunder is the Dao technique, and the people of the temple summon thunder and lightning through practicing qi and qi, and sympathizing with the thunder god. β
"This qi is the innate vitality of human beings, don't understand it as our current breathing qi, because this involves the foundation of the temple's spell entry, refining and refining qi."
"The temple is good at spells and spells."
"But the Divine Palace is different, they cultivate pills and refine medicines."
After Xiaoman finished speaking, seeing that Chu Huan and Xue Yue were stunned, he shook his head helplessly: "I'll just say don't talk about it, if you want to talk about this, you can really talk about it for three days and three nights." β
"What do you say?" Zhuo Feng caught up at this time: "I know, ask me." β
Chu Huan glanced at Zhuo Feng and immediately said, "It's nothing, it's just discussing why there are so many stars in the sky." β
Xue Yue continued to take a step forward and strode forward.
Xiao Man smiled at Zhuo Feng and didn't say anything.
"Cut, don't you say I don't want to hear it." Seeing that a few people didn't want to listen to him, Zhuo Feng didn't pay attention to it, and found a step for himself to go down, and then continued:
"The night was beautiful...... The wind was cool. β
"It's been a long time since I smelled your hair......"
He was in a good mood, he looked up at the stars, no matter whether Chu Huan and the others listened or not, Zhuo Feng still said to himself:
"To tell you from the heart, this great wilderness continent is as good as the big wilderness continent, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, I like this feeling of loneliness."
"In our Jingguo, there are crowds of people everywhere when you go out, traffic jams, crowded, and noisy...... Sometimes you have to queue up to go to the toilet. β
"At this moment, I really want to compose a poem!"
"The great wilderness is like snow...... My heart is like a bright moon......" Zhuo Feng pretended to think: "Which of you is out of the next link?" β
"Knock your head down for half an hour, can you pour out three drops of ink from your stomach?" Chu Huan glanced at Zhuo Feng: "Don't talk nonsense, maybe the chasing soldiers are behind." β
"I'm afraid they won't come......" Zhuo Feng smiled: "Ugly said in front, if you can't beat me, I'll run away, don't blame me." β
"I advise you to run now." Xiao Man made a sarcastic voice on the side: "Otherwise, I will save you at that time." β
"I love to hear that." As he said and remembered something, he reached out and touched it, and took off the human skin mask made according to Qi Chuanlin's appearance: "Fortunately, I was prepared, otherwise General Qi would not have died in peace." β
Qi Chuanlin had been cremated, and the ashes were sprinkled in the desert by Chu Huan, because the people in the military department had been looking for Qi Chuanlin, so Zhuo Feng made a personal leather mask to attract their attention, hoping to catch a big fish.
Originally, Zhuo Feng was still thinking of using Qi Chuanlin's head to go to the coalition military camp to assassinate or something, but after discussing it, they felt that even if they succeeded, the risk was too great, so it was better to lure the snake out of the hole.
"I wonder how many layers of human skin mask you're wearing?" Chu Huan looked at Zhuo Feng and asked aloud, "Is your current face your true face?" β
Zhuo Feng just laughed and didn't answer Chu Huan's question.
Seeing him like this, Chu Huan and the others had the answer in their hearts.
"You still use this, the province has been pulled into Peiguo's blacklist." Zhuo Feng said and threw the human skin mask in his hand to Chu Huan, Chu Huan took the human skin mask and thought about it, said okay, and then put the human skin mask on his face with the help of Zhuo Feng.
After a few people met during the day, Chu Huan told the information he knew so far, there were new mutants on the coalition side, one was to track down Qi Chuanlin's whereabouts, and the other was to eliminate the rebels in the city, that is, a few people who destroyed Lin Tian's mecha.
According to Zhuo Feng's idea, simply kill in the city of ruins, the other party's four genetic mutants, there are also four people here, one-on-one, it is not without a chance of winning.
Chu Huan had different plans, and when he learned that Lin Xiaoxiang and Xiaodao had arrived in the Great Wilderness Continent, he had a plan in his heart.
The City of Ruins is not the first choice.
First of all, there are a lot of poor people here, and if they really want to start a war in the ruined city, I am afraid that the houses will collapse and countless people will die, and Chu Huan does not want to hurt the innocent.
The most important thing is that Chu Huan doesn't want to expose himself in front of everyone, if he is recognized for fighting with the coalition forces here, I'm afraid he won't be able to return to Lening in this life.
So he chose the battlefield in the ancient city of Mochizuki.
In order to achieve the purpose of attracting the high-ranking of the coalition forces, he asked Zhuo Feng to pretend to be Qi Chuanlin.
At the same time, in order to attract the attention of the temple, he deliberately went to the temple and lent the artifact Lingxi to Xiaoman, and now the artifact has recognized Chu Huan as the master, and it is just an ordinary dagger in the hands of others.
Xiao Man deliberately revealed it in front of the purple robe with the artifact, in order to attract the attention of the Pope.
In the ruined city, if a few of them want to deal with the pope, the odds are very small, but in the desert where there is no one to live, if the pope brings someone to come, if he comes alone, the four of them are not without a chance of winning.
Zhuo Feng and Chu Huan both had grenades on their bodies, and Xiao Man was an invincible existence below the red-robed priest, so he could at least fight.
As for Xue Yue, even if the Pope is an existence of steel and iron bones, he can cut it with one sword.
With a good human skin mask, Chu Huan walked towards Xue Yue, Zhuo Feng followed behind, and Xiao Man walked last.
Looking at the three people in front of him, Xiao Man was a little worried at the moment.
No one knows the Pope better than her, not to mention that there is also a genetic evolutionary person in the chasing army, as well as three genetic mutants, Chu Huan said that as long as they reach the Mochizuki Ancient City, they will be sure to win, but can they really go to the Mochizuki Ancient City?
This battle, just like Chu Huan said, has the meaning of gambling in it, at least they dare to fight and gamble, and dare to say no to those who are high.
She had already vaguely guessed Zhuo Feng's identity, and she felt that it would be better if Zhuo Feng could call a helper.
It's just that the people from the shrine seem to have to wait two days before they come.
At this moment, Xiao Man felt a little guilty in her heart, it was she who brought the three of them together and pulled them into this struggle, if someone had an accident for this...... Thinking like this, Xiao Man sensed a strange wind blowing, and immediately paused and shouted ahead: "Danger! β
Xiao Man made a warning, and Xue Yue, who was walking in front, took the lead in stopping, his left hand holding the knife blocked in front of him, and his body bowed slightly, ready to strike at any time.
Chu Huan and Zhuo Feng also stopped and looked around.
Looking at the back of Xue Yue in front of him, Chu Huan remembered a conversation between the two days ago, and he asked Xue Yue, "Why is your knife so fast?" β
Xue Yue said something that made Chu Huan shut up immediately.
"I practice the knife drawing action for six hours a day."
"Ten years of perseverance."
"Without him, only the hand is familiar."
Don't look at Xue Yue's knife now that it is still in the scabbard, Chu Huan believes that there is no difference between that knife and being held by Xue Yue.
At this moment, a whirlwind wrapped in a figure slowly appeared, blocking the front of everyone traveling west.
The man was dressed in a golden robe, with only one face and one hand exposed.
He was about fifty years old, with high cheekbones, a ruddy complexion, and clear eyes.
It was the Pope.
Seeing the Pope, Zhuo Feng subconsciously took a step back, seeing that Chu Huan and the others were all staying in place and not moving, Zhuo Feng touched the human skin mask on his face with some embarrassment, and took a step forward to stand in the previous position.
And Xiaoman stepped up to meet him.
"The goddess has seen the Pope." Xiao Man bowed and saluted.
Since the Pope appeared, his eyes only glanced at the others and fell on the goddess, and now when he saw the goddess saluting himself, his expression did not change and said: "Goddess, are you guilty?" β
"What's the crime of Xiaoman? Please also ask the Pope to make it clear. β
"You steal the artifact privately, and collude with outsiders to mess with my temple, your heart can be punished!"
"Did the Divine Law ever stipulate that a goddess could not use an artifact?" Hearing the Pope's words, Xiao Man laughed: "The temple has become what it is now, and the Pope is even more likely to be blamed, right?" β
"Hand over the artifact, and I'll save you from death." The Pope said angrily.
"Thank you, Your Holiness, for your kindness." Xiao Man said and took out the spirit rhino from his waist: "Please also ask the Pope to let us go." β
After speaking, Xiao Man walked towards the Pope with a dagger in both hands.
Xue Yue, on the other hand, took a few steps to the left side of the Pope, and several people formed horns towards the Pope.
Glancing at the knife in Xue Yue's hand, the Pope snorted coldly, he didn't pay attention to it, he looked at the dagger in Xiao Man's hand, and just when Xiao Man was only a foot away from him, the spirit rhino suddenly flew up from Xiao Man's palms and shot straight at the Pope's chest!
Chu Huan and Lingxi now have the same mind, he controlled Lingxi to sneak attack the Pope, and did not think about hitting it with one blow, after all, Lingxi was an artifact of the temple before, and the Pope should have taken precautions against Lingxi.
"Bold!" The Pope shouted angrily, and the next moment he raised his hand and grabbed it, and the Spirit Rhino with the amazing speed was directly held in his hand, and looked up and down at the golden pattern on the Spirit Rhino Knife, and the God Emperor's brows furrowed.
Before, he could connect with the spirit rhino, but now that the spirit rhino was held in his hand, not only did he not feel the existence of the spiritual energy in the spirit rhino, but the spirit rhino had been resisting, trying to break free from his hand, and the huge impact force made him have to let go.
The next moment, the spirit rhino hovered in the night sky, waiting for an opportunity to move.
"It seems that only by killing the little man who controls the spirit rhino can it be possible to regain the artifact." The Pope, who thought that Xiao Man had done something to the artifact, thought so, and when he looked at Xiao Man again, his eyes were already full of killing intent.
At this moment, Xiao Man, who had been preparing to attack, kept chanting incantations in his mouth, and a thick wall of sand up to two feet high appeared in front of her, blocking the Pope's sight, and the next moment, the sand wall collapsed and smashed towards the Pope!
The Pope stood in place unmoved, but a hint of ridicule appeared at the corner of his mouth, and a pale yellow light curtain appeared around him, as he raised his hand, clenched his fist, and punched out against the sand wall, an illusory fist magnified several times appeared, with a powerful air flow through the sand wall and went straight to Xiao Man.
Xiao Man hurriedly retreated to avoid the Pope's fist shadow, and the wall of sand shattered the moment the fist passed through it, turning into a pile of sand.
Zhuo Feng took the opportunity to step forward at this time, and came to the Pope is a punch!
The fist stopped a foot in front of the Pope, blocked by a wall of qi.
It was like a punch smashing on a thick mirror, and Zhuo Feng's momentum was unexpectedly unable to move forward in the slightest.
"Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate and ......" (Note 1)
"Give me divine power and wipe out all the obstacles!"
As the Pope muttered, the desert that had been a gentle breeze immediately set off a violent wind, and the wind swept up the sand and swirled, and the sand was blind, as if it wanted to sweep people away.
Breathe the wind!
"Five Thunder Heavenly Venerable... It's all in my heart... Smell the breath is coming... Thunder and Thunder ...... Revelation! β
Recruit thunder!
The originally moonlit and starry night sky instantly swept across the sky, and thunder burst into the sky!
Do I rub?
Seeing this scene, Zhuo Feng withdrew his fists and retreated.
The Pope was much more powerful than he had imagined, and as soon as he had the intention of retreating, he saw a figure rushing towards the Pope.
Xue Yue.
Xue Yue jumped up in the wind and sand and slashed at the Pope.
This knife actually tore a hole in the Pope's talisman qi shield alive!
The tip of the knife passed through the air shield, moving down inch by inch, getting closer and closer to the Pope's face, looking at the black knife in front of him, the Pope accepted his contempt, and as he raised his right hand, a fireball appeared in his palm.
The fist-sized flame glowed blue, looking extremely weird, and with a wave of the Pope's hand, the fireball flew straight towards Xue Yue!
The air shield disappeared, the Pope's body flashed, and when he reappeared, he was already a foot away!
Xue Yue's knife momentum remained unchanged, and he slashed towards the fireball.
The fireball was split in half with a single sword, but it still flew towards Xue Yue!
"It's hellfire, be careful!" Xiao Man shouted at Xue Yue!
"How to extinguish it!" Xue Yue was chased by the fireball, although the fireball was lethal, but it was not flexible enough, although it would not be caught up for a while and a half, but it was a bit annoying to be entangled by the fireball.
"I'm coming!" Xiao Man stepped forward and began to chant a spell and cast spells, and at this time, Chu Huan rushed towards the Pope with force under his feet!
He had just arrived a foot in front of the Pope when a thunderclap fell on him!
"Heh, you warlord still want to hurt me? Bite off more than one can chew! Looking at Chu Huan who came to him, the Pope's body did not move, he knew that Qi Chuanlin was just an ordinary soldier.
Almost at the moment when the thunder was about to fall on Chu Huan, the golden light flashed on Chu Huan's body, and the next moment Chu Huan came to the Pope, and the thunder also fell on Chu Huan's body.
Just listen to the Pope's angry shout resounding in the sky!
"Rats are looking for death!"
β¦β¦β¦
Note 1: Many people should have heard this sentence, but they don't know much about the story behind it: The founding emperor of Southern Liang once asked Daoist Zhou why you became an official in the court, and Zhou Xingsi said that there was a voice in his head telling him to come. Zhou Xingsi is a good way, and Emperor Liang is a good Buddha. There are senior monks who came to meet Emperor Liang, talking about Buddhism and talking about what is wisdom through the sky, Emperor Liang said that I have a Taoist priest named Zhou Xingsi, I think it is wisdom to the sky, or you talk about it first, it just so happens that I have Wang Shusheng's tablet here, you write and read it.
Zhou Xingsi stayed awake that night, and the next day he presented the "Thousand Words of the Book of Wang Xizhi" that has been passed down through the ages, he extracted a thousand words from Wang Xizhi's inscription, compiled a text, and told the monks the profundity of Chinese civilization with the most concise and neat words, and the monks were silent after reading it, bowed with their palms, and bid farewell to Emperor Liang.
Emperor Liang was keen on Buddhism, of course he didn't want to, so he sent people to try his best to stay, blockade the ferry, ban boats, ban navigation, etc., how do you know that the monks went to the river, picked up the reeds by the river, tied them into a bundle and threw them into the river, jumped up, stepped on the reeds, and crossed the river to the north.
After Zhou Xingsi wrote "The Book of the Second Yun Wang Xi" overnight, his sideburns were all white, and Emperor Wu of Liang ordered the children of the imperial family to study the "Thousand Words of the Book of the Second Yun Wang Xi", so as to show the endless Taoism of the Chinese Dynasty.
As soon as the monk looked at the beginning of "The Book of Thousand Words of the Second Yun Wang Xi", he sighed to himself: "Heaven and earth are yellow, and the universe is desolate." β
Xuan is black, and the beginning says that the sky is dark and the ground is yellow, which is directly jumping out of the atmosphere to see the world, and I don't know where it is more powerful than the blue sky and white clouds.
"The Book of Thousand Characters of the Second Yun Wang Xi" is now known as the "Thousand Character Text", which is a compulsory enlightenment text for more than 1,400 Han people.
ββThis chapter is still more than 5,000 words.,It's not divided into development.,I found that your ID names are much better than what I obtained.,It's all talent-
