Chapter 54: Formation
Xu Xuan exhaled a breath of turbidity.
The progress of Qingjing Jue has exceeded 90%, and it is about to enter the realm of Dacheng and Tranquility.
Begin to have a body that is different from ordinary people.
Although Xu Xuan often laughed at himself that he couldn't even compare to the miscellaneous servants in the Mirror Middle Realm, this was not the case, at least the exercises he cultivated and the Golden Light Mantra were first-class mastery.
If the Golden Light Mantra is cultivated to perfection, the range of attack should be even greater.
"Letter from Jinling!"
At this time, Li Jianxing sent a letter up.
It turned out to be a letter written by Xu Yong, which told what happened, especially the matter of Sun Taixuan in the north.
"Sun Taixuan is willing to show up?" Xu Xuan was surprised.
But think about it, the monks in this realm don't have the power to overwhelm the mountains and seas, and Sun Taixuan's words will only use three kinds of insects at most, and even worse than himself in the future.
He is about to train into twelve kinds of insects, and without Xu Xuan's personal action, the disciples of the White Emperor Sect can suppress this guy.
Defection to the dynasty is the best policy.
As for the barbarians.
Xu Xuan wrote a letter and said: "The third brother should not worry, the barbarians and the Han people are a thousand-year-old blood feud, and it is a sin to kill millions of people, but when the Central Plains declined, the barbarians entered the customs to fight the autumn wind, causing tens of millions of deaths. Killing a million barbarians is only killing a million people, but it can indirectly save tens of millions of people, so offset, but it also earns nine million merits. ”
The third brother Xu Yong is his white glove to complete the great cause, and Xu Xuan has always personally checked these things.
"Send the letter to Xu Yong, by the way, do you say that the group of people in the north are the Taoist priests of Zhongnan Mountain?"
"It should be, the minister also received news recently that Zhongnanshan has changed the sect leader."
"It is said that Zhongnanshan is good at formation counting?" Xu Xuan asked.
"Yes, this is the unique skill of the Taoist priest of Zhongnan Mountain, and the dignitaries and nobles of the northern land usually find the Taoist priest of Zhongnan Mountain to be able to feng shui and set up a transfer array."
"You go...... Forget it, I'll go there myself. ”
Xu Xuan thought about it, and it was safer to go over in person.
Without him, the formation is too important.
In the mirror realm, there is a saying of the three techniques of cultivating immortals, which refers to the Dan, the instrument, and the array.
Among the monks, those who learn this craft have the most nourishing life, and Hong Yi Wanxianglou relies not on cinnabar, but on cheap and affordable pills.
It's good to say that as long as there is a pill prescription, plus a book of superficial pill refining techniques, almost all monks can refine one or two ordinary pills.
Even if the success rate is not high, hard refining can be achieved.
Xu Xuan is an example, relying on massive resources and alchemy with a success rate of two percent until the success rate increases.
But the formation is different from the refining weapon, this method requires the use of mathematics, as well as very precise techniques, taking the road of precision, a little wrong, immediately out of order, the kind that cannot find the problem, equivalent to a very precise instrument.
Alchemy can also produce miracles vigorously, but the latter two cannot.
Therefore, formations and refining weapons are usually monopolized.
With the formation, Xu Xuan could do a lot of things, such as improving the efficiency of aura absorption, or the cultivation efficiency of the Huang Ting's internal Jing technique, after all, the efficiency of holding the spirit stone was not very high, and it was easy to lose in the middle.
After thinking about it, Xu Xuan decided to go to the north to personally meet the sect leader of Zhongnan Mountain.
"Li Jianxing, Xie Miao, Li Changsheng, each of you will take twenty people to the north with me."
"Yes!"
Thundered......
The sound of horses' hooves was urgent, and a cavalry of more than sixty people rushed to the north in the starry night.
The horses were not allowed to rest, and they immediately changed horses when they arrived at the post station.
Three days later, Xiangyang City Gate.
This majestic Xiongguan is a key node in the north and south, with the city wall defenders like clouds, and more than ten red-coated cannons.
"Stop coming!"
Li saw that he dismounted, showed the token, and said, "The White Emperor Sect Heavenly Master is here!" Who is the general who guards this place? ”
The attitude of the gatekeeper changed greatly, with a look of reverence in his eyes, and he looked at the man who looked like a god not far away, and he could recognize who was the main man at first glance without being introduced by others.
"The general is Zhang Huangyan, I'm going to ask for instructions, please inside."
The heavy gates opened.
The horses entered the city, and the city was slaughtered, mostly soldiers.
The crowd came to the General's Palace.
A middle-aged man in white armor waited early.
"Meet Master Xu! Li Zhenren! Xie Zhenren! General Zhang stepped forward and clenched his fists.
On the day of the Zen ceremony, Zhang Huangyan had seen the ability of the Heavenly Master with his own eyes, and he had gone to Yuelu Mountain to study, and his strength rose sharply when he came back.
He and Li Jianxing are considered to be a teacher-student relationship.
"Time is pressing, you draw out 800 elite soldiers to go north with me."
"Only eight hundred? Would you like more? Zhang Huangyan was not very relieved.
"No, eight hundred is fine."
"Good!"
The team has become more than 860 people, and it is also an elite firearms battalion, using the latest flintlock short-barreled cavalry gun developed by the Tiangong Academy.
Immediately, Xu Xuan was holding a 60-centimeter-long gun, the butt was wooden, the barrel was black steel, and there was a folding bayonet at the top.
Dachang has a very high skill in making guns, this gun is a single shot, the ammunition is wrapped in paper in a fixed amount, the loading speed is very fast, and the power and range are good.
Xu Xuan had one in his hand, and there were four more in the storage bag, with hundreds of bullets.
"Who says that a sergeant can't use a gun?"
Xu Xuan's wrist flicked, and the gun disappeared, causing everyone to marvel.
Nanyang, the war is in chaos.
Xuan Zhen's clothes are ragged and his stubble grows messily.
Seven or eight disciples accompanied him, the horse was already dead, and only a few of the dozens of people remained.
The crowd was hungry and walked cautiously through the woods, and from time to time the jumble of bushes left wounds on them.
Xuan Zhen is still carrying a package, this is the secret method of the classics inherited by the ancestors, even if no one cultivates it, and even it is regarded as a deception, but it is also the most important thing passed down by the ancestors, even if he dies, he will not leave it to the rebel.
I don't know how long I walked, Xuan Zhen let the disciples rest, and he was unable to lean against the big tree.
Seeing the appearance of his disciples, Xuan Zhen couldn't wait to look up to the sky and roar.
"Someday, I must kill these brute dogs!!"
Emperor Chang of the Han Dynasty in the south and the barbarians never stopped, and Xuan Zhen secretly made up his mind that when he arrived in the south, he would join the military camp and slaughter the traitors and barbarians with his own hands.
Sou!
There seemed to be human voices all around.
"Run!" Xuan Zhen's face changed, and he led everyone to start the escape journey.
The target of the flight was the South.
In addition to the Tartar army, there are scouts sent from the south who are looking for them.
Six soldiers sprang out of the bushes.
The people faced the enemy with swords.
"Don't be impulsive! I'm not a Tartar! ”
The soldier at the head took off his helmet, revealing the familiar hair.
"Who are you?" Xuan Zhen is still a little vigilant, and some Tartar spies don't shave their hair.
"I'm Liu Yuan, the scout of the Shenji Battalion, Xu Tianshi sent us to look for you, are you the Xuanzhen Sect Master?"
As he spoke, the scout approached single-handedly without a weapon.
There were spies from General Zhang Huangyan looking for their clues before, and Xu Tianshi asked the scouts to look for them along the general direction, but he didn't expect to be met by himself.
"It's down there! Is it really Xu Tianshi who sent you? Where is the big force? How many people? ”
Hyun Jin gradually let down his guard.
"The large army is in Shigang Village, that is, three miles away, and there are 800 people."
Hearing this, Xuan's heart sank.
There are only 800 people, there are thousands of people in the Nanyang cadre army alone, and there are at least 1,000 chasing soldiers behind them, and there is a large camp of the Eight Banners Banner Owner in the distance.
Will 800 people be able to escape?
Sou!
More movement came from all around, and it turned out that the Tartars' pursuers had arrived.
