Chapter Eighty-Nine: The Past

"Oh, it's the breath of that ancient beast again. Alemin looked in the direction of the south of the city, even if it was late at night, Murong Xuan's military tent was still brightly lit.

Murong Xuan smiled slightly, of course he felt the extraordinary power of thunder and lightning, but he didn't speak, but turned his head to look at the table next to him, who was closing his eyes and sensing.

"It's still the same...... "Yama said slowly with her eyes closed, "...... The spiritual power of this ancient divine beast also caused the echo of another divine beast, but this time, the aura of that divine beast echoed was very weak, perhaps because he himself didn't realize that he had such a strength. This is a good thing, so that we can get rid of him. ”

"Do you know who he is?" Murong Xuan asked, "My army of the god of war is a little impatient." ”

With her eyes still closed, she seemed to be keenly perceiving all the clues she could perceive, and it took a long time for her to reply in an ethereal voice: "As I said, he is in this city." It seems to be a fateful arrangement, and the southern swordsman with the power of thunder and lightning also sneaked here......"

"Then destroy them together, since the reincarnations of the two divine beasts are here, wouldn't it save me a lot of trouble? Murong Xuan rubbed his hands a little excitedly, and the silver armor hanging on the copper frame reflected his face extremely pale.

Booma suddenly opened his eyes, and his bright eyeballs met Murong Xuan's pale face, revealing a meaningful smile: "What are you doing...... Why don't you let them kill each other?"

was able to annihilate the army of the Yan Kingdom that came to raid unscathed, and Xiahou Tong could be said to have made great contributions.

The sudden launch of a crescent-shaped weapon, the cracked pit trap in the ground, and the burst of fire oil drawn by sulfur saltpeter are all magical powers of the Mohist mechanism.

During the Warring States Period, the Mo family was extremely fine and skillful, especially good at the confidential art of defending the city, so the world called it "Mo Shou", this kind of organ forging skills have been passed down to this day, and are still proficient by Bai Mo disciples, and Xiahou Tong as the eldest brother of Bai Mo (that is, the position of the head of the Mo family), is the best in this.

Lu Shuoqi's estimation of the Yan family's meat number was not meticulous, but where did he know that a small Yan family meat number had been built by Xiahou Tong into a golden land with many organs and vicious abnormalities. Don't look at the Yan family meat number occupies a small area, but the tunnels under it extend in all directions, and the longest one even goes straight to the outside of the city.

In addition to the powerful tricks in the front yard, the backyard is hidden in the shadows with several small repeater turning firing platforms opened, and the charcoal fire borrowing car suddenly performed miracles from the ground, eliminating all the Yan Country 100 people who rushed into the backyard.

As for Yan Oyster's attack on the more than a dozen Mo family swordsmen outside the courtyard, although there was a move to kill the enemy leader, in fact, there were more elements of feints, and their real purpose was to search for the demon channelers among them.

The origin of this purpose originated from Han Li's strange question ten days ago: "Do you believe it...... Are there demons in this world?"

Yan Hao and Guo Xin heard it at first time, although they felt that this question was a bit absurd, but they did not say anything to refute it, in fact, the Mo family doctrine has the theory of both love and non-attacking ghosts, that is to say, the children of the Mo family believe that there are ghosts and gods in the world. However, it has been handed down for thousands of years, and the teachings of the Mohists in the past are quite different, and gradually the concept of ghosts and gods has disappeared. However, seeing Han Li's solemn face, he knew that there must be a reason, so he listened to him in detail.

"Since everyone is bent on taking the life of King Pi, there is one thing that must be said in the head first. Han Li's silence was not surprising to everyone, so he just smiled indifferently, "Beside that Xiapi King, there is a group of monsters who are not human guards, ordinary swords and guns are difficult to hurt, and the strange power is endless. If I'm not mistaken, these monsters are supposed to be eating people, and I can see the black gas emitting from them, with the smell of blood. Han Lide Ganfei taught some superficial techniques of the Demon Dao, but under the operation of his own powerful spiritual power, his strength was already quite good, and he also remembered that only the demons and monsters who had eaten people would emit a strong fishy black gas from their bodies.

"Our ultimate opponent is not the king of Xiapi Murong Li, but these monsters, but unfortunately I can't tell whether they are demons or ghosts, and I am also very curious about how these monsters are willing to be driven by those Donghu people, I remember that their leader is also a royal family of Donghu, Murong Xuan, the king of Volodus, is Murong Li's nephew, and he is determined to protect his uncle. Of course, Han Li didn't know the intrigue in the Xianbei royal family, at least looking at the situation on the battlefield that day, Murong Xuan did his best to save Murong Li.

"Lord Han......" Yan Oyster paused, as if he was thinking about how to phrase it, so he hesitated for a long time after the salutation, and then continued: "...... Dare to ask, how do you know that those guards are not human? Or maybe those people have fallen for some strange spells in the Donghu tribe? Lord Han has not seen demons with his own eyes?"

Han Li smiled bitterly and pointed at himself, his fingers scratching from the scar on his forehead to his jaw...... Wuqing, you're right, every time I see myself, I think of you...... Han Wei was gloomy for a while, and his voice was a little hoarse: "This wound on Han's face is ...... It is given by demons. ”

Yan Hao and Guo Xin glanced at each other, each stunned, while Xiahou Tong was also shocked as he sat on the side, looking at Han Li's face with a stunned expression.

"You better believe that this is not what happened to the Falcon Swordsman alone. Seeing that everyone was still a little incredulous, Mo Yumei interjected in a cold tone: "I have also encountered demons and ghosts, and four of the thirteen great swordsmen of our Great Sima Mansion died at the hands of demons and ghosts. So I don't think it's time to argue about whether there are demons or ghosts in the world, but to decide what method to use to deal with those demons, those demons and ghosts entrenched around Murong Li!" When she said the word Murong Li, Mo Yumei couldn't help but clench her teeth.

Xiahou Tong once again cast his interested gaze on Mo Yumei, and when his gaze turned to the corner of Mo Yumei's clothes, his eyes lit up again.

Yan Oyster was still a little hesitant, this kind of thing is not something that can be believed by listening to people's words, especially when it comes to the stabbing plan, how can it be ignored?

Han Li could only smile again, put his fingers up, and slowly stretched them out.

No, let them see this vision with their own eyes. Han centrifuge in the middle of the way, while holding his breath and condensing, several ink artists noticed Han Li's abnormal behavior, and they didn't know what he really meant, so they all stopped talking, and only looked at him stunned.

"Zila", Han Li used the method of Gan Fei to violently release his spiritual power, and then feared that the movement would be too big, and quickly retracted his strength, but in this short moment, a dazzling electric spark appeared at his fingertips, and the airflow in the entire room was suffocated.

"This is the mysterious power of Han's body, and it is precisely because of this power that he provokes demons and ghosts. ”

Yan Hao and Guo Xin were stunned, they couldn't be sure if this was some kind of trick to hide people's ears, but Xiahou Tong froze completely on the ground and took a long breath.

"Lord Han, what kind of spell is this......" Guo Xin was stunned for a long time, but he could only say this.

"Senior brother, there is no need to say it. Xiahou Tong suddenly spoke, interrupting Guo Xin, Guo Xin is also a disciple of Baimo, Xiahou Tong called him in the order of his master, "I believe what Lord Han and Lord Gu Yan said." Xiahou Tong's gaze swept over Mo Yumei.

"Senior brother...... Yan Hao and Guo Xin spoke at the same time, and they didn't know whether to express surprise or want to persuade, but Xiahou Tong waved his hand and met Han Li's slightly surprised gaze, and was silent for a long time before he seemed to have made up his mind, and said with a resolute expression: "I have also encountered such a thing as a demon." ”

This sentence surprised everyone present, especially Yan Hao and Guo Xin, what kind of demons and ghosts had the senior brother encountered? Why had he never heard the senior brother talk about it? Han Li was interested, staring at the other party, waiting for him to continue.

Xiahou Tong wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was quite embarrassed, and then looked at Yan Yu and Guo Xin, who were dumbfounded, before sighing heavily: "I was originally afraid of scaring you about this matter, but in fact, I was also afraid of scaring myself, so I was ready to keep it a secret and take this matter to the grave, so I never told you about it." But today, since a few adults are in front of them, and they are talking about this matter, and it is also related to the great cause of the king's northward advance, Xiahou Tong has no reason to hide it, so let's talk about the demons I encountered. ”

Xiahou Tong sat upright facing Yan Hao and Guo Xin, and the rest of the Great Sima Mansion swordsmen knew that what he said must be thrilling, and they all froze and waited.

"Do you still remember the old days when I went to Chang'an at the behest of the Golden Dragon Decree in July last year?"

As soon as Xiahou Tong's words began, Han Li sighed, and he remembered who had told him about this matter. That was the scene when Gan Fei recounted the encounter of Chi Tang, one of the negative swordsmen of the Five Directions.

On the fifteenth day of July in the year of Bingchen, the heroes gathered in Chang'an to punish the tyrant Fu Sheng of Qin. I didn't want to encounter the demon escort tyrant, so I slaughtered all the martial arts masters who came to assassinate, leaving only the negative swordsman Chi Tang, who was lucky to get away with it because of the power of the fire crow Qianjun. Could it be that this White Ink Artist Xiahou Tong was also one of the assassins who carried out the assassination that day? If so, how did he escape?

Fortunately, Han Li's rather unexpected light call was covered by Yan Hao's words, except for Mo Yumei and Han Ni who turned their heads to look at Han Li, no one paid attention to Han Li's soft call.

Yan Yu frowned slightly: "Senior brother, didn't you say that you investigated Yueyu in Chang'an, and there was no gap to start in the end, so you returned in vain?

Xiahou Tong smiled bitterly: "I was afraid that you would worry, so I lied to you." The world's first-class masters and knights gathered there, should you give up so easily? In fact, we not only found an opportunity to start, but also put it into practice. ”

Yan Oyster was stunned and did not speak, since a group of masters carried out the assassination, and the tyrant was not overthrown by his fellow clan Fu Jian until the beginning of this year, it can be seen that the assassination must have failed.

"Alas, there are many masters. There are three of the top figures in the Double Absolute Five Warriors alone, Chen Song, the Absolute Iron Spear, Zhang Yan, the Pengcheng Giant Warrior, and Chi Tang, the Linchang Swordsman, are all characters who are as famous as Lord Han, I wonder if Lord Han knows them?" Xiahou Tong suddenly asked Han Li, they all belonged to the list of the Double Absolute Five Warriors, and this question was reasonable.

Han was shocked, but his face was silent, and he slowly shook his head: "These three have been admiring each other for a long time, and they cherish their fate." Mo Yumei showed a sudden expression, she also remembered this old incident, of course, she also listened to what their disciples of the Qianjia family said when she was recuperating from her injuries, she also saw Chi Tang himself, a generation of martial arts masters, a famous swordsman on the rivers and lakes, and finally became a disciple of the Qianjia, and like the shocked falcon Han Li, they are the Qianjunhua people who are most valued by the Qianjia. However, she saw that Han Li didn't mention it in the slightest, so she just kept silent.

Xiahou Tong heard Han Li say that he didn't know, so he nodded abruptly: "Fortunately, Lord Han doesn't know, otherwise I would be even more shameless." ”

"What do you mean by that?" Han Li asked.

"We were ambushed on the morning of the 14th of July, on the way back to the palace. Xiahou Tong did not answer directly, but told the experience of assassinating the tyrant that day with a smug expression, until the tyrant's car drove into the valley, and he launched the Mojia mechanism technique to block the tyrant's escort iron horse at both ends, "To be honest, at the beginning of the assassination, I found that something was wrong." Maybe I've set up the traps around me, so I'm more mindful. When the rocks filled the valley mouth, a strange mist suddenly appeared, and all the sounds seemed to suddenly disappear, and they were never heard again. I was cautious and cautious, and did not jump down with their brigade to assassinate, but chose to wait and see what happened on the valley, always feeling that I was not inferior to the remaining dozens of iron cavalry and tyrants, and the result was ...... As a result, this looks like ......"

"What's wrong?" Yan Hao asked, looking anxious.

"As a result, I found that the fog only shrouded the tyrant's car in the valley, and the many of my comrades who jumped down seemed to have crashed into the fog, and then I saw four strange glowing currents piercing through the mist. I saw tigers, rhinos, pythons, and wolves, standing upright like humans, still talking to their comrades in the fog...... Then ...... "Xiahou Tong looked pained," ...... They killed my comrades and ate them alive as if they were cattle......"

When he said this, Xiahou Tong's eyes were tightly closed, and his face showed a look of fear, and this experience was not only heard by Han Li and Mo Yumei, but also for the first time, everyone showed a look of horror, and felt a tingling on the scalp.

"You laughed. Xiahou Tong covered his face, and his voice came from between his fingers: "I...... I was so scared that I didn't have the courage to ...... Not having the courage to live and die with my comrades, I ran like mad through the prepared tunnels, fearing that the terrible creatures would catch up with me......"

The room was quiet, only Xiahou Tong covered his face and sobbed slightly, Yan Yu looked shocked, but he also patted Xiahou Tong's shoulder comfortingly: "This ...... This is also to blame the senior brother, it turns out that there are really demons and ghosts in this world, and I am afraid that I will also run away from the desert after losing my soul. ”

Xiahou Tong sobbed for a while, and finally let go of the hands covering his face, his eyes were slightly red, he was speechless for a long time, before he exhaled a breath and settled down, obviously not wanting to touch on the cruel past more, but pulled the topic to the present: "So Lord Han said that there are demons and ghosts in this world, I believe it, of course I believe it, because I have seen this kind of thing eat so many of my siblings!"
