Chapter 52: Fooling the Hu Formation Division
Chapter 52 flickered Hu Zhenshi
Qingshi and Zheng Fangyi, Xiang An and Li Yun and Li Xiu hid in a hidden place at the foot of the mountain, where they could see both the road down the mountain and the pond, and of course, Qingshi also used the surrounding trees and rocks to set up a shielding array.
It was less than fifty steps away from the path down the mountain, and they saw the first team of people led by Sun Mengxian over, these people were masters in the eyes of the Sun family, but in their opinion, they knew that they were not worthy of Teng Shouqian and the others at all.
Soon the second wave of people passed, and Qingshi and they saw that this team was not as good as the first team, so they were more relieved.
After the second wave passed, he waited for a while and said to An, "It seems that they won't send people out again." ”
"Do they really care about the leyline connection hub?" Qingshi wondered, "It shouldn't be." ”
"It's okay," Xiang An said, "I see that there are several Qi Condensation Realm cultivators in these two groups of people, according to our information, this should be their elite, and your plan to lure the snake out of the hole has already worked well." ”
"But my goal is to lure out their formation mage and capture him alive, forcing him to tell him key formation-breaking information such as the position of the formation eye," Qingshi shook his head and said, "Otherwise, it will be more troublesome and time-consuming to break the formation." ”
These two groups of people passed over just now, and it was almost certain that there were no formation mages among them. When the first group of people reached the edge of the pond, they all chased into the woods, and no one cared about the circle hub in the pond, obviously there were no array mages, and the same was true for the second group.
"It's naturally not so easy to exterminate them," Xiang An said: "If the plan doesn't work, we will attack it, it will only take some more time." ”
"Luring the snake out of the hole can eliminate a lot of elites, I think this plan is at least half successful," Zheng Fangyi said, "But let's wait, Qingshi's plan is to attack the enemy." There's a good chance they'll send someone to fix the circle connection, and even if they really don't care, we won't have to wait a little longer, so let's be patient. ”
At the same time, on the top of Xigu Mountain, Sun Shengzhi, who had already assembled two teams, had not yet given the order to set off.
"Zhongyu, you can tell Old Man Hu about what you have observed." Sun Shengzhi commanded Sun Zhongyu, who was standing on the lookout.
"Yes," Sun Zhongyu said to an old man in black: "I have been watching since Mengxian came down the mountain just now, the two people who destroyed the magic circle may have taken some kind of pill, and suddenly accelerated their speed to the shore, and then one of them picked up the other and ran into the woods in the northeast, and then Mengxian They arrived at the edge of the holy lake, and soon found the traces of the man's escape and chased into the woods, and after a while, Menghai also took people to the lake, and chased them down like Mengxian. Now there is no movement around the lake. ”
"Well, it is said that with the strength of the Dream Immortals, they should have caught up with the enemy, why haven't they heard back yet." Sun Shengzhi said to himself.
"Since the enemy can sneak in without knowing it," said his third brother Sun Guozhi, "it means that he has some means of concealment, and it is normal for them to not find it for a while." ”
"Well, the third brother is reasonable," Sun Shengzhi said, "Zhongyu, take a look at the situation in Pingzhai again." Can you put up a message flag? ”
"The phantom array in Pingzhai should have been discovered a long time ago, and now that the maze array has been launched, you can't see anything in the vast white expanse." Sun Zhongyu said anxiously. They don't have a treasure like a communication artifact.
In fact, even if there is no maze, due to the formation barrier laid by Qingshi in both directions, Xigushan and Sunjiaping will not be able to see the flag to transmit the message to each other.
"Big brother, don't hesitate," Sun Guozhi said, "The enemy must be storming Pingzhai now." "Let's hurry up and fix the circle connection!"
Sun Shengzhi no longer hesitated, and shouted: "Go." Then he led the way down the mountain.
The patience of the five people in Qingshi was not in vain, seeing this group of about forty people coming down the mountain, Qingshi found that there should be a formation mage among these people, especially the thin old man in black who didn't look like an ordinary martial artist.
This group of people walked through the hiding place of Qingshi and the others, until they came to the pond, that is, the edge of the holy lake in the mouth of the Sun family, they did not search for traces on the ground, but most of them went south along the holy lake, only three of them quickly ran to the east.
Qingshi and the others quietly observed and did not act. Zheng Fangyi contacted Teng Shouqian and asked them to hide and not act rashly, Teng Shouqian responded and reported that the second team of the Sun family had also been wiped out.
The three people of the Sun family who went to the east quickly opened a sluice gate in the east, and the lake began to leak out, and a large group of people in the south also moved, and several people went into the water to open a vent at the bottom of the lake, and the lake water leaked faster. l
Qingshi saw that it would take some time for the lake to dry up, so he immediately asked Zheng Fangyi to call Teng Shouqian and the others over.
When everyone arrived, Qingshi began to arrange the next move: Xiao Ji went to solve the three people in the east, and the others except for Qingshi hid in the mobile concealment array arranged by Qingshi and quietly touched everyone in the south, and the circle was controlled by Xiang An, and when the distance was close enough or it was discovered, he would attack with all his might.
Qingshi specially explained that he wanted to leave the lives of five of them, and these five people Qingshi judged that there might be formation mages among them, including Sun Shengzhi and the thin old man in black.
Aoshi himself was responsible for maintaining the formation barrier facing the hill on the west side, so that the people on the hill could not see the situation by the lake clearly.
The next action went very smoothly, and Xiao Ji solved the three minions easily.
Although there are many Sun families in the south, it has never been an advantage in this world of martial arts cultivation and immortal cultivation, and it is not uncommon for a powerful monk to destroy the clan and slaughter the city alone.
Under the attack led by the three masters of Xiang An, Zheng Fangyi, and Teng Shouqian, only Sun Shengzhi could still resist one or two, and soon, except for the five people named by Qingshi, who were captured alive, the rest were reimbursed.
Everyone killed easily, but it took a lot of effort for Qingshi to maintain the formation, which could not let the people on the hill see the fight, nor let them hear the sound and become suspicious.
After the battle was completed for a while, Qingshi arranged a maze and a lot of mist came out, making the entire pond full of mist and shadows, except for Qingshi Xiang An Zheng Fangyi, the rest of the people put on the clothes of the Sun family to confuse the people on the hill.
Qingshi Xiang An, Zheng Fangyi and the other three brought five captives to the thick shade of the trees.
These five people were knocked unconscious beforehand, Qingshi looked at the five people, pointed to one of the small ones and said, "Let's wake this up first." ”
"Could this person be a formation mage?" Xiang An's eyes widened and he looked at the man carefully, shook his head and said, "No way." "It turns out that this person is short in stature, with a roe deer, a mouse-eyed appearance, and obviously cultivates to an extremely low level, and has no attribute true qi.
"Of course not," Aoshi laughed, "it's a stepping stone." ”
Zheng Fangyi waved his hand and blew out a strong wind, the short man woke up, Zheng Fangyi's whole body was released and pressed towards him, sure enough, the man was immediately frightened and urinated and shouted for mercy, Qingshi didn't take much effort to find out the information he wanted from his mouth.
Bluestone slapped the short man unconscious, and then threw all the other people except the old man in black behind the big rock.
Zheng Fangyi woke up the old man in black, and the old man woke up and looked at the three people in front of him, bowed his head and sighed.
"Hu Yulai is an old-timer, right?" Qingshi said.
The old man looked up and said in surprise, "You know me? ”
"Hu Lao's reputation is also well-known in the entire Hatoyama country," Qingshi Mian did not change his color, "We naturally have admired it for a long time." Actually, that's all from the little man's mouth.
"What if I have a reputation?" Hu Yulai sighed, "The magic circles I set up have not been broken by you quietly, and people have not been easily taken by you." ”
"Old Man Hu is not ashamed," Xiang An said, "Don't look at this Qingshi brother who is young and not yet a hundred years old, he is the leader of my Heavenly Dragon Dynasty formation mage, a seventh-level formation mage." By the way, he is also a third-level alchemist, and he has the skill to stay in the face. ”
Zheng Fangyi had no expression on his face, but he was muttering in his heart: These two guys are really shameless and skinless when they brag, Qingshi occasionally doesn't talk about it, which Xiang An didn't expect to be even more serious as a royal guard.
Hu Yulai's eyes widened in shock, and he subconsciously asked, "Really?" ”
Xiang An said loudly, "Li Chenghua, the second-class guard of the royal front of the Great Heavenly Dragon Kingdom, has never told lies in his life, otherwise people and gods will die by the sword!" ”
Hu Yulai looked Xiang An up and down, and said, "It's really alarming the royal family!" Alas......" looked at the bluestone again, and sighed again; "In that case, you just broke the magic circle we laid out, so why bother to ask me."
"Don't say that I can break your formation with the formation technique," Qingshi sneered, "Even if we break the formation with force, it won't be a big deal. What do you see this is? As he spoke, Qingshi took out a few array sticks and floated in front of Hu Yulai.
Hu Yulai stared at the stick tightly, and excitedly reached out to grab one and held it in front of him to take a closer look, and Qingshi did not stop it.
"Earth Tools!" Hu Yulai exclaimed, "This is a ground-level formation magic weapon!" ”
"Do you think I can break your magic circle?" Qingshi waved his hand back and said, "I just don't want to waste more time and effort. Okay, you know what I want, let's be honest, you don't say yes. ”
"I promise, I can also cooperate with you to personally help you break the two magic circles," Hu Yulai made up his mind and said, "Although the Sun family treats me well, but they restrict my freedom for more than 30 years, and I am called Shangbin, but I am really a coolie and a prisoner." However, I also have the conditions to save my life and my family. ”
"Okay." Qingshi said, looking at Zheng Fangyi.
"Your life is fine," Zheng Fangyi said, "As for your family, if you don't die and be captured after breaking the formation, you will naturally not kill them again." Isn't that to Lord Xiang? As he spoke, he looked at Ann.
"If you abandon the secret and make meritorious service to atone for your sins, we will naturally open the net to save you and your family's lives." Xiang An said with a gloomy face, "If you don't know how to lift, hehe, I will definitely make you and your family die ten times worse than the Sun family!" ”
"Okay, I'm willing to give up the darkness and make meritorious atonements." Hu Yulai immediately expressed his position.
Qingshi took Hu Yulai aside to ask him alone, he was not willing to let Hu Yulai follow him to assist, but just asked him to tell everything related to the two magic circles of Xigushan and Sunjiaping in detail, Hu Yulai naturally did not dare to hide it, and knew everything and said everything.
Seeing Hu Yulai talking to Qingshi, Zheng Fangyi, who was waiting on the side, glanced at Xiang An and said, "I didn't expect Brother Xiang to be a troublemaker." ”
Xiang An was surprised: "Why did Brother Zheng say this? ”
"You call yourself Li Chenghua gambling and swearing to deceive this old man, and it's not a troublemaker?"
"I didn't call myself Li Chenghua! I'm just saying that Li Chenghua never told lies in his life, otherwise people and gods would abandon and die under the knife! Old man Hu misunderstood that I was Li Chenghua, and you didn't know my name. ”
"Shhhh Can he not be mistaken when you talk like that? You're the one who made him misunderstand. By the way, is there really such a person as Li Chenghua? ”
"Yes, I said, the second-class guard of the royal palace of the Great Heavenly Dragon Kingdom."
"Your colleague, then you still swear by him? Does he really never tell lies? ”
"Where! This guy never had half a word of truth in his mouth. ”
"Then you didn't curse him?"
"He won't mind."
"Why?"
"This guy is so crazy and full of lies that even the emperor dares to deceive, and in the end he was convicted of bullying the king by His Royal Highness, and he has already slapped with a knife."
"You ......," Zheng Fangyi was speechless for a while.
After a while, Zheng Fangyi couldn't help but say to Xiang An again: "In the end, you are still a troublemaker, and you are still lying and bragging, I think you are better than Qingshi, and you can lie and brag better than your colleague Li Chenghua." ”
"Am I lying?" Xiang An looked innocent, "Am I bragging?" ”
"You said that Qingshi is a seventh-level array mage, isn't that a lie? Isn't this bragging? ”
"What I'm saying is, 'He's the best of my Heavenly Dragon Dynasty array mages, miracle array mages.'" How can you lie and brag? ”
"That's right! You admit it, you said that Qingshi is a seventh-level array mage, is he? He is level four. ”
"Oh, Brother Zheng must have misunderstood like Old Man Hu, I'm talking about 'miracles', miracles that create miracles, Qingshi overwhelmed the brothers of your Array Dao Academy as a third-level alchemist, and obtained the qualification of a fourth-level array mage alone, isn't this a miracle? That's what I said this morning on the boat. ”
"You...... Well, you've got your point. What about the age of bluestone? "Don't look at Brother Qingshi's young age, he is not yet 100 years old. 'That's what you said, right?' ”
"I said that, what's wrong?"
"What is less than a hundred years old! Bluestone is only twenty this year, isn't it? ”
"Of course a person who is only twenty years old is not yet a hundred years old, am I wrong?"
"I ......," President Zheng suddenly said.
