Chapter 42: The Ruins and Monsters
"Change horses, I have an urgent military situation to pass on." Chen Moliang took out the letter and handed it to the post station.
Their outings this time were military orders, and they had their own military letters with them for them to call on the post horses to convey military information in an emergency.
Yi Cheng didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly brought a horse, Chen Mo turned over and changed horses, and picked up the person tied behind the horse and put it behind the saddle.
He had already changed several horses along the way, and at this speed, he would be able to reach the barracks in half a day.
Of course, this speed is slow, there is no way, the horses in the Xingyuan Mansion Post Station are not fast horses specially used to transmit military information.
Most of them are just bad horses, and they can't run much faster.
After driving the horse again, and changing horses on the way, I saw the barracks.
At least from the current point of view, there has been no accident in Xingyuan Mansion, and most of the people from the Dutian Daomen seem to be in Anyang Mansion, and this time it is just a coincidence that they came to the vicinity of Xingyuan Mansion.
But this is just Chen Mo's speculation, there is too little information they forced to ask, and that wrestler is even lower in the Dutian Dao Sect, and he knows very little things.
Even if there is something big to do, it will definitely be hidden from him first.
So no matter what, I have to get the news through first.
In this way, no matter what the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect want to do, they will have a preparation.
The soldiers in charge of the guard couldn't help but show doubts when they saw him running all the way.
"I have an urgent need to see the general." Chen Mo shouted and rode into the barracks.
flew to the study and turned over and dismounted, but before anyone could pass it on, Chen Mo rushed straight into the study with Nalux.
"Father-in-law, something is wrong." Chen Mo casually threw Lux aside and hurriedly spoke.
"Hmm!" Sun Shouren stood up suddenly, with a look of surprise and a slight doubt on his face, but after all, he was a veteran on the battlefield, and it had become a habit to be not afraid of danger.
Waving his hand to hold back left and right to prevent uncontrollable news from leaking out, he asked Chen Mo, "What happened?" ”
"Back to his father-in-law, the child and many brothers went to Qingzhou to investigate the traces of the bandits, but on the way, they encountered a demon who claimed to be the Dutian Daomen.
Those demons have strange methods, they can use their arms and tongues to turn them into weapons to hurt people, and they are quite hostile to us, and they will kill people when they see them. The fifth brother also captured a wrestler in the Dutian Dao Gate, and now he has also been brought by me. Chen Mo said briefly and described the general course of the incident.
The more Sun Shouren listened, the more gloomy his face became, there were many things that Chen Mo didn't know, but he knew some.
"Those people you meet are not demons, they are qi refiners." Sun Shouren's tone was slightly solemn, and he spoke in a quiet voice.
"Qi Refiner?" Chen Mo asked, although he had already browsed the Dutian Dao Sutra before, he knew that those so-called immortal masters could refine qi and cultivate.
But all he knew was scratching the surface, because he couldn't continue reading the exercises.
"The so-called Qi Refiner is different from our martial artists, who boil the flesh to cultivate internal qi, while the Qi Refiner is to attract the qi of heaven and earth into the body, and use the qi of heaven and earth to exert many means.
Their methods are very strange and varied, and one of the uses of sacrificing their bodies to kill enemies with flying swords is one of them.
But if these Qi Refiners talk about hand-to-hand combat, they are far from being the opponents of martial artists such as us. ”
Sun Shouren slowly opened his mouth to explain to Chen Mo and tell what he had learned.
A five-grade official is nothing in the imperial capital, and at most he is a six-department squire.
can be a general of Wupin Town, and he can definitely be called a big party in the place.
Many secrets were not secrets to him, and the things he could understand and contact far exceeded those of Chen Mo's own soldiers.
Just like the inner family exercises, the reason why he dared to say that after Chen Mo was successful in his practice, he could ask him for a copy of the inner family exercises.
It's because of his status and position that these things are not very difficult for him to obtain.
"Then these Qi Refiners of the Heavenly Dao Sect, why do they have to use their tongues and arms as weapons, and if they use well-made steel needles, it is not more concealed and the effect is better."
Chen Mo raised his own question, and when he was fighting, he had to take down his arm, and it was undoubtedly more secret to use a steel needle to plot with a steel needle.
"Ordinary steel needles have no spirituality, while human bodies are inherently spiritual, especially the bodies of those qi refiners themselves, which are washed by the qi of heaven and earth, and are more powerful after refining.
The reason why the Qi Refiners of the Heavenly Dao Sect made a move on you was probably because they also took a fancy to your body.
Although the torsos of our martial artists are not as strong as their own, they are much stronger than ordinary people, and they are not only more convenient but also more powerful when used for sacrifices. ”
Sun Shouren slowly opened his mouth to answer Chen Mo's doubts, if these things are discussed, they are actually not very secret.
It's just that Chen Mo's identity and status are not enough, so he can't get in touch with these things.
Chen Mo originally thought that he was a person from the Heavenly Dao Sect. It may be that he is practicing evil ways, so he uses his torso as a blade.
Now it seems that most of the Qi Refiners in this world, if not all, are doing this.
"That father-in-law knows that we have encountered a person who can't be killed." Chen Mo spoke again, since someone can answer questions today, then seize the opportunity to ask more.
At the moment, I will enter the territory of Qingzhou and encounter the strange victims before and after, and I will roughly explain it clearly.
Hearing Chen Mo's narration, Sun Shouren's face suddenly became extremely ugly, and he motioned for Chen Mo to close the doors and windows tightly to prevent the ears of the partition wall before he spoke.
"The thing you come across is called a ruin monster, and no matter how many times you kill them, they won't die.
The place where the ruin monsters live is called the ruin realm, and the ruin realm you encounter is fine, although there are people who can't be killed, but it's not that weird.
The Ruin Realm will continue to expand slowly over time, and we and other martial artists are helpless against it, so the status of Qi Cultivator in my Great Dry Refining is high. ”
Sun Shouren didn't say it in great detail, but Chen Mo could find more information from this passage.
That is, there is not only one ruin realm, the one I encountered is not so weird, and there are more and more weird ruin realms.
"Why hasn't that kid ever heard of such a thing in our Xingyuan Mansion, could it be that this ruin monster is only found in Qingzhou?" Chen Mo asked curiously, he was indeed quite puzzled about this.
Listening to the meaning of the righteous father's words, there is more than one ruin realm, and only the Qi Refiner can suppress it.
If there had been a ruin realm in Xingyuan Mansion, then he should have heard a little rumor.
"Of course not, Qingzhou has, Xingyuan Mansion certainly has. I don't know much about it, but I've only heard a few high-level people talk about it.
The ruins and monsters are all illusory realities, and the human mind will have an impact on them.
The more people know about a ruin, even if they don't see it with their own eyes, but only hear rumors or just say a few words, then the stronger that ruin realm will be.
The seal that has been laid may even be broken away, and if you want to seal it again, the price you will pay will be much greater. ”
Sun Shouren gave a general idea of what he knew, after all, he was only a martial artist, not a qi refiner.
If he hadn't helped a few Qi Refiners deal with this kind of thing, he probably wouldn't have had a chance to learn about these things.
He wouldn't talk about these things on weekdays, but since Chen Mo had already encountered the Ruin Realm, he had to tell him about the stakes.
"You must not spread any news about this matter, how many people besides Ling know, where are they now?" Sun Shouren asked.
Chen Mo reported the names of the recruits one by one, except that they had met with him, Chen Mo did not specifically mention this matter when he contacted others.
And he also specially warned a few people not to tell others about this.
At that time, I just didn't want to bother with this nosy, but I didn't expect it to be crooked, ensuring that this matter would not spread significantly.
Sun Shouren breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, he knew that the ruins were terrible, compared to others, once this matter was leaked, the consequences would be the most serious.
It's just that then he thought of another point, why did the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect appear near the ruins realm impartially.
What's more, there was even one person among them who was able to use the power of the ruin monsters, and it was obvious that this group of people was by no means an ordinary Qi Refiner.
They went to the Qingzhou region at this time, although they didn't know what their specific purpose was, but most of them didn't have a good heart.
"You take my warrant, take a group of men and horses to attack Qingzhou at full speed, don't contact the people of Tiandaomen, and take your fourth brother and them out of Qingzhou first." Sun Shouren took out the seal letter and wrote the order at the moment.
He wasn't sure what the plans of the people of the Heavenly Dao Sect were, but he knew that he had to get out of his own righteous son and nephew first.
These people are their own cronies, and each one of them can lead a battalion of men and horses, if they don't have them, then they will never want to go to the battlefield again in their lives.
Now the loss of one Zhao Yuncheng is enough to make him feel distressed, and there must be no other losses.
"The child is commanded!" Chen Mo took the military order, hurriedly ordered a group of elite people, and quickly rushed to Qingzhou.
