The Seventh Mountain City.

The people in the city were extremely flustered.

But fortunately, some soldiers maintained order.

But here in the barracks, there are 8,000 sergeants, and they all notice the abnormality.

Even Lu Wan noticed the clues and walked out of the military tent.

He stood at the head of the city, looking into the distance, his brow furrowed.

"Venerable Lu, the situation is not right......"

Yan Zhen's tone was heavy, he did not join the queue of patrolling the mountain, but was responsible for the central deployment.

This time, ten squads, a total of one hundred and twenty people.

But in the barracks, there were still more than 30 people from Xuantianguan.

"It can be seen that to the south of here, there are twelve of the thirty-six front mountains, and they are attacked at the same time."

Lu Wan's tone was solemn, and he said: "This is not an ordinary beast tide, there are manipulators behind it!" ”

The large-scale beast tide is often manipulated by the "demon king" behind it!

But at this moment, the manipulator mentioned by Venerable Lu is probably not so simple.

Yan Zhen said in a low voice: "We came here last night, and when we started patrolling the mountains today, there was a large-scale beast tide, which was coming for us!" The demon king of the southern mountains, could it be that his wisdom has reached such a high level? ”

"It's hard to say."

Lu Wan paused, and then asked, "What you were prepared for, are you ready?" ”

Yan Zhen nodded and said, "Everything is in order, just listen to your orders." ”

Lu Wan waved his hand and said, "You go and arrange it." ”

He was about to step forward, but he paused again, took out a spirit rune, and handed it to Yan Zhen.

"Is this a child-mother note?" After all, Yan Zhen was born in the Changxi family, and his knowledge was not bad, so he recognized this talisman.

"The other one, on Richie's body." Lu Wan said.

"Oh?" Yan Zhen thought for a while and said, "Is it the team that Yan Jing is in?" The serial number is ninth, Shen Monkey! ”

"Yan Jing probed a clue and passed it over by Li Qi's hand." Lu Wan's tone was solemn, and he said: "You think of a way, find out, that soldier named Liang Jin, he is Yuan Li's personal soldier!" Another one to explore, it is Lin Qi, the deputy commander who fell in the first beast tide! ”

"Understood." Yan Zhen said: "I have prepared some means in advance, so that I can learn the news unconsciously and will not be noticed afterwards." ”

With the current hostility of the Seventh Army towards the Xuantian audience, even daily chatter is very rare, and if you listen to the news, I am afraid that it will be detected by Commander Yuan Li immediately.

Therefore, it is inevitable that some means will be used to inquire about these news.

"I'll be able to give you a clue tomorrow."

"I want it tonight."

"This ......" Yan Zhen said in a low voice: "The generals in the army, strong in blood and blood, tenacious in will, and in the barracks, the general trend of national fortune is blessed, this method will take effect, I'm afraid it won't be so fast!" ”

"I'll give you a chance."

When Lu Wan said this, he waved his hand and said, "You go and prepare first." ”

Yan Zhen immediately responded and retreated.

And a moment later, a soldier came in a hurry and said in a low voice: "Venerable Lu, the great commander invites you to discuss matters in the tent." ”

"Lead the way."

Lu Wan took a deep look at the soldier.

——

In the big tent.

When Lu Wan came in, many eyes converged on him.

There were more than 20 generals present, all of whom were Dao Foundation Realm.

Most of them are the upper echelons of the Dao Foundation Realm, or even the peak of the Dao Foundation Realm.

Only a few, with military merits, have come to this point, but their cultivation is not too high.

In the eyes of everyone, there was a sense of scrutiny, and even a little hostility.

But Lu Wan didn't pay attention to it, and looked straight at the Yuan Li Commander at the top.

"Venerable Lu came just in time." Yuan Li stood up and said so.

"It's not just right." Lu Wan swept over everyone and said, "It's still too late." ”

"Do you know it's late?" A middle-aged general suddenly sneered.

"It's on the shelf." I heard a young general again, and sneered.

"Not really." Lu Wan smiled and groaned: "Commander Yuan Li sent someone to pass it on, and I will come immediately!" If you really want to say that it is late, it should be the personal soldiers of Yuan Li's commander, who are too slack and deliberately delay, if it is judged by military discipline, should it be beheaded? ”

“……”

Yuan Li's face froze, and he thought that he would finally pass Lu Wan over and let the generals wait for a while, but he would inevitably add some anger in his heart, and he became more and more dissatisfied.

didn't think about Lu Wan's words, and pushed the responsibility back.

He glanced at the pale-faced soldier before he said, "Go and get twenty military sticks." ”

The atmosphere in the tent became extremely silent.

Lu Wan slowly stepped forward and sat down beside Yuan Li, his expression flat.

And the Great Commander Yuan Li only sighed, and then said: "Twelve beacon smokes, Venerable Lu probably saw it?" ”

"See." Lu Wan responded like this, paused, and said: "Four of them, the color suddenly changed, I remember that it means that the enemy is fierce, unable to hold on, and is about to abandon the mountain and retreat." ”

"Yes, my Seventh Army has lost four more eyes."

Grand Commander Yuan Li sighed, and then said, "To the south of the mountain city, thirty-six front mountains are equivalent to thirty-six eyes of my Seventh Army...... In the first beast tide, the three high platforms of the front mountain had already been destroyed. ”

After the first beast tide, the remaining thirty-three front mountains, the high platform formation, are still there.

The formation of each front mountain is guarded by hundreds of soldiers.

"This time, the beast tide attacked twelve places at the same time, obviously there was a plan, maybe behind it was the demon king of the God Refining Realm."

At this moment, the middle-aged general from before opened his mouth like this, but his eyes looked at Lu Wan.

Before the conscription order was issued, there was an attack from the Refining God Realm, and all the soldiers of the Seventh Mountain did their best to help the commander of Yuan Li, and with this mountain array, they should resist with all their might!

However, the conscription order has been issued, and the matter involves refining the God Realm, so it should be taken by the Xuantian Sect.

Lu Wan also understood the deep meaning in the other party's eyes.

As this person spoke, all the generals in the tent looked at Lu Wan.

In his eyes, it is extremely complicated.

Some are dissatisfied, some are angry, and some seem to know that the situation is dire and deeply sad.

"This one with the rhythm is the deputy commander of the left battalion? The news said that he was Yuan Li's confidant...... "The voice of the third grandmother sounded.

"It's him."

Lu Wan nodded slightly, knowing in his heart that this must be Yuan Li's instigation, pointing the finger at the Xuantian Temple, and further promoting the "conflict" between the Xuantian audience and the soldiers of the Seventh Mountain.

In the sea of knowledge, thoughts run instantly.

The third grandmother asked him to do it boldly, and recently with the spirit of the Five Hell Ecstasy Mirror, his soul power has recovered a lot, even if there is really a demon king of the Refining God Realm, she is sure that she can save Lu Wan.

Immediately, I saw Lu Wan get up.

He put his hands behind his back, looked at the soldiers, and said lightly: "If it is the Demon King of the Refining God Realm, I will take charge of the Xuantian Sect, and I will make a move." ”

Just these words, all the soldiers also fell silent.

The deputy commander of the left battalion snorted and said, "Where is the Xuantian Sect?" If you are in Kaiyang Mountain, can you rush to the seventh mountain in time to resist the demon king? ”

"In this big tent, you question this seat, no problem."

Lu Wan's tone changed, and he said in a cold voice: "My family is in charge of teaching, and he is a great cultivator in the world, and you can question it?" ”

"Yang Lu, there's no place for you to speak here!"

Commander Yuan Li immediately shouted.

It's one thing to question Lu Wan, a junior.

Questioning the Great Cultivators of the Divine Refining Realm is another matter.

Therefore, Grand Commander Yuan Li immediately interrupted Yang Lu, who was about to refute, took a deep breath, and looked at Lu Wan.

"If there is a Demon King of the Refining God Realm, and there is a Xuantian Palm Sect to make a move, we will be stable."

"But judging from the scale of this time, I'm afraid there is a big demon with a Casting Ding level, and there is more than one!"

"The current situation is really not easy."

Commander Yuan Li said so.

Lu Wan heard what he meant, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Then what does the Great Commander mean?" ”

"The Seventh Mountain City, guarded by a large array, can connect the twenty-four mountains, even if the demon king of the Refining God Realm can't easily break through."

Yuan Li sighed and said, "The best way should be to stick to the Seventh Mountain City, instead of rushing forward to meet the beast tide!" ”

When all the soldiers heard this, they also fell silent.

But this time, before Lu Wan could speak, a young general said in a deep voice: "To the south of the seventh mountain, there are thirty-three high platforms, and there are at least more than three thousand brothers...... In addition, this time, there are nearly 4,000 people who will go to take over the rotation, will the Grand Commander give up on them? ”

"There are only eight thousand soldiers in the seventh mountain city."

Commander Yuan Li sighed and said, "If these 4,000 people can't hold the front line, what can we do if we come out?" On the contrary, if you lose the help of this great array to defend the city, you will only increase casualties......"

At the same time, Yang Lu, the deputy commander of the left battalion, said: "What the commander said is extremely true, besides, those 4,000 brothers have already risen and are ready to retreat, and we only need to respond, and we may not suffer heavy casualties." ”

"The beast tide is too strong, menacing, first avoid the edge, and then counterattack."

Yuan Li said: "Only by shrinking the defense line and bringing back the soldiers on the front line can we play a greater role in this seventh mountain city!" ”

The young soldier just now was named Chu Zhou, and he had the cultivation of the seventh layer of the Dao Foundation.

He was born in a sect in the Gaoyang Domain and belonged to the Casting Ding faction.

Five years ago, the sect was called, he entered the Great Cadre Army, two years ago, he took the initiative to transfer to the seventh mountain, came to the border, in order to sharpen his will, seek to cast the upper dantian platform.

For this reason, in the past two years, he has taken the initiative many times and led his soldiers to kill more than 2,000 demons in total.

Therefore, although he was not the pinnacle of Daoji, he had quite high military achievements and was promoted to deputy commander, with 800 soldiers under his command.

But more than 300 of his brothers were on the front line.

Hearing this, his face was extremely ugly, but he couldn't refute it.

At least in everyone's ears, what Yuan Lida did was to greatly preserve the strength of the Seventh Army.

Lu Wan frowned slightly and glanced at everyone.

It seems that someone is waiting for Lu Wan to speak?

But Lu Wan didn't speak, after all, someone couldn't help it.

"But in this way, we have to lose a lot of manpower."

The deputy commander of the left battalion sighed and said: "Our soldiers have strict military discipline and have guarded the border for many years, and these 4,000 people are ...... At least three thousand can be returned! It's a pity that all of you in Xuantianguan are new to the situation, and they are not clear about the situation, and under the retreat, it is inevitable that there will be chaos, and it is possible that they will all fold on the front line. ”

"Our soldiers are very likely to lose a thousand people, Yang Lu, you don't take it to heart, but cherish that hundred or so people?"

At this moment, there was a person who sneered and ridiculed Yang Lu, the deputy commander of the left battalion.

If it follows the normal trend, Yang Lu's words just now probably came from Lu Wan's mouth.

What this person really wants to ridicule is obviously Lu Wan!

"Yang just thinks that Xuantianguan is weak now, and he has lost hundreds of people, but it can almost be regarded as the entire army." Yang Lu said slowly: "The reinforcements of Xuantianguan, when they first arrived at the Seventh Mountain, in less than a day, the whole army was wiped out, if this matter is spread, won't it attract shame?" 1,300 years of Taoism, fame and majesty, is gone......"

"That's what you can say?" The general just now sneered and said, "How could Xuantian Guan ever be weak? Just a few Daoji, I just arrived yesterday, but let our commanders come forward to make amends! ”

"Oh, that's right." Yang Lu said out loud again: "Presumably, with the background of Xuantian Temple, the death of these hundred or so people is not worth mentioning, and it is enough to transfer a batch of them again, anyway, they are all affiliated forces, and human lives are not worth anything!" ”

"I thought that this reinforcement was the former of the master of Xuantianguan, the elite of the people, but I didn't think that they were all outcasts, and it didn't matter."

The other general, like this, laughed even louder.

The rest of the generals, with complicated expressions, did not speak.

"I heard about that white ape monster...... Oh, the white right envoy of Xuantian Temple ......" Yang Lu said with a smile: "Lu Zuo envoy, but you have to watch it and die on the front line, I don't know if you can go back and give an account to the Xuantian Sect?" ”

“……”

Lu Wan's face was expressionless, his gaze swept over, and fell on Yuan Li's face.

The smile on the corner of Yuan Li's mouth flashed, and he couldn't help sighing: "The situation is like this, Yuan can't send troops for the sake of Bai You's envoy?" ”

"So Commander Yuan has already made up his mind and doesn't want to send troops?"

"Thank you for your understanding."

"Since this is the case, then Lu has no choice but to guard it together in the Seventh Mountain City."

“……”

Commander Yuan Li was stunned.

Including Yang Lu, as well as the general just now, they were all shocked.

Doesn't it mean that this kid has the power to cast the Ding, and he is arrogant?

Normally, shouldn't he rely on his outstanding combat power, and then wave his sleeves away, be alone, and kill to the front line?

——

Yesterday night.

Commander Yuan Li believed that some things could be deduced from the incident of the Iron-winged Divine Eagle.

For example, Lu Wan, after the attack of the Iron-winged Divine Eagle, immediately attacked and killed the Eagle King in less than thirty breaths.

Perhaps he was young and enthusiastic and preferred to appear in front of people.

Maybe he felt that the people who accompanied him were all on the orders of Xuantianguan, and he didn't want to watch them die under the iron-winged condor in vain, so he immediately took action.

But no matter what it is, it can be confirmed that in the face of this matter, Lu Wan will never sit idly by.

"If he is young and enthusiastic and likes to appear in front of people, then when the beast tide comes, he will inevitably go into battle in person and show his might before everyone."

"If he cares about the people who accompany Xuantianguan, then he will not sit idly by, and will definitely go to the rescue."

"There are more than 100 people in total, and more than 30 people have been left in the barracks, and 12 people have gone south to patrol the mountains."

"He won't sit idly by and die under the first beast tide."

"Otherwise, when the news spreads, Xuantianguan sent people to assist the Seventh Army, but in the first beast tide, almost all of them died, wouldn't it become a laughing stock?"

"Judging from the news from all sides, this kid cares very much about the reputation of Xuantianguan."

"So this step must not be wrong."

"If we can't hold on tomorrow, he will be in danger alone."

"If you don't obey the military order and attack without authorization, then Xuantian will be in charge of the sect afterwards, and you can't ask for the guilt...... Even the Zhenyang Palace, if it is strong enough, will ask the Xuantian Temple in turn! ”

"This matter is decided!"

——

Last night, Yuan Lida led a plan, and the sound was still in his ears.

That's it!

But people don't cooperate at all!

No, the people were too cooperative, jointly guarding the seventh mountain city, and gave up the more than 100 people on the front line.

This made Yuan Li, the commander, stunned.

But the next moment, he hesitated again: "Those more than 100 people? ”

Lu Wan shook his head and said: "Great cadres, I am afraid that I will lose thousands of people this time, and the great commander can bear the pain, how can I, more than 100 people, damage the overall situation?" ”

Commander Yuan Li said in a low voice: "In fact, if there is a strong man at the head and leads a team of elite soldiers, it is not impossible to come back. ”

Lu Wan shook his head again and said: "Staying in the city is the best policy, and the elite in the army can show greater ability and guard the frontier." ”

He raised his hand and sighed, "How can I let this elite team in the city go into danger because of the hundreds of people in Xuantianguan?" If you break this team of elite soldiers again, how can you bear it? ”

Something was wrong with the atmosphere in the tent.

Everyone looked at each other.

The young general named Chu Zhou frowned slightly.

He could see that Venerable Lu of Xuantian Temple wanted to go to the rescue at the beginning.

But the Grand Commander made up his mind and could not defend it.

In the end, Venerable Lu decided to give up these more than 100 people.

Therefore, Chu Zhou didn't think much of this Venerable Lu in his heart, but he thought that he was the same, and he was a little self-deprecating.

But just when he was distracted, how could the scene suddenly turn around?

Now it's Venerable Lu, and he is determined not to go out and defend the Seventh Mountain City?

Commander Yuan Li is persuading to rescue the more than 100 people in Xuantianguan?

Or even use elite soldiers to respond?

The person in charge of Xuantian Temple has obviously given up his own manpower, why is this Yuan Li Grand Commander in a hurry to save people than Venerable Lu?

And in Yuan Li's heart, there is no way not to be in a hurry.

Such a big battle is the handiwork of Mr.

If you can't force Lu Wan to fight this time, how can you succeed?

If he can't succeed, wouldn't the gentleman have to surrender his guilt if he mobilized such a big battle in vain?

It's all because Yang Lu is blasmed, he pressed too quickly and too hard, which made this Lu Wan afraid and didn't dare to fight alone!

It should have been hinted a long time ago that elite soldiers could be dispatched to follow Lu Wan to rescue the Xuantian audience.

In this way, Lu Wan is probably willing to go to the front line.

Now that fear has risen in Lu Wan's heart, it is difficult to persuade him.

And in the camp tent, since Lu Wan said that he would give up the front line, now that he is talking back, he is afraid that he will lose face.

"This Yang Lu is not enough to succeed, and there are more than failures!"

Yuan Li secretly scolded in his heart: "I also mentioned that the great array of the Seventh Mountain City, which can connect the twenty-four mountains, is impregnable, stable and worry-free, which makes him even more determined to nest in the Seventh Mountain City...... Wait, that's what I said? Forget it......"

He was hesitating about what method to use to let Lu Wan take the initiative to fight.

It was too dead to say before, but now if you use a military order to designate Lu Wan to fight, it will be too deliberate.

What's more, he forced Lu Wan to fight, and when the Xuantian Sect arrived afterwards, he would inevitably ask for the guilt.

In fact, his attitude before and after was a little different, hesitant and even contradictory, just because he still had some ideas in his heart......

After all the events passed, he could still keep his status as a general of the imperial court, and he did not have to flee to the southern mountains to survive in that wild place.

He had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and he was thinking about his words, but he heard Lu Wan's voice coming.

"Commander Yuan Li, sitting in the mountain city for a long time, can you still fight with the great demon of the Casting Ding level?"

"Huh?"

Yuan Li couldn't help but be stunned, then took a deep breath, and responded: "Naturally, you can fight!" ”

"No!"

Yang Lu hurriedly got up and said, "A great demon who casts a tripod can't drive the twelve demon soldiers at the same time!" Even if there is no Demon King of the God Refining Realm on the front line, there are at least two Casting Tripod Demons! Even if it's a three-headed casting demon, maybe it's ......"

Lu Wan glanced at Yang Lu, sighed and said, "Also, the Great Commander is the supreme commander of this Seventh Mountain, how can he be in danger with me?" You should be in the army, and you can't go wrong! ”

"No!"

Yuan Li said in a deep voice: "I heard that Venerable Lu has the ability to kill the Casting Ding!" You and I work together, even if we can't kill the source of the beast tide, we should be able to return calmly! ”

Lu Wan was silent and said, "The rumors from the outside world are wrong, my ability is low, and I am afraid that I will miss the life of Commander Yuan." ”

Yuan Li looked solemn and said: "Yuan is willing to sacrifice his life to accompany him, even if he dies on the battlefield, it doesn't matter...... As long as you can kill the Great Demon of Casting Ding, disperse the beast tide, and save the soldiers on the front line! ”

When Lu Wan heard this, he showed respect, but he hesitated.

"Commander Yuan not only has cultivated to a high level, has guarded the border for many years, has rich battlefield experience, and has the 'high-grade magic weapon battle armor' given by this imperial court, probably it doesn't matter!"

"It's a pity that the Xuantian Temple is already weak, my cultivation is shallow, and I don't have a high-grade magic weapon battle armor, I'm afraid that in the beast tide, I can't last a quarter of an hour, and I will die in battle."

"It's okay for me to die, but I have dragged the great commander back and taught you to be isolated, how is it good?"

Lu Wan thought for a while, shook his head and said, "If that's the case, it's better not to fight." ”

“……”

Yuan Li took off his armor on the spot, took off his helmet, and said solemnly: "This pair of armor is worn by you today!" ”

Yang Lu and the others were about to admonish.

But Yuan Li shouted.

"Today, Venerable Lu Wan, take great risks and join forces with me to kill the Great Demon of Zhuding and disintegrate the beast tide!"

"With the realm of Daoji, he still has the heart to turn the tide, could it be that I Yuan Li, who is greedy for life and afraid of death?"

He said proudly: "Wait for you to stay in the seventh mountain city, and you will be able to guard it!" I fight side by side with Brother Lu Wan! ”

Lu Wan glanced at Yuan Li deeply.

These words have put themselves on the level of "turning the tide".

used "greed for life and fear of death" to cut off his retreat.

A brother, fight side by side!

And give away the best magic weapon and armor to save your life!

Even if he dies on the battlefield, this Yuan Li commander can erase his suspicion.

In the same way, if Yuan Li died on the front line, no one would doubt the Lu Wan brothers who were willing to take great risks?

"Let's go!"

Lu Wan got up and said, "You and my brother, go to the same battlefield today, disintegrate the beast tide, and turn the tide!" ”
