Chapter 173: A Dream of Escape

The Demon Suppression Army was originally a city guard belonging to Baicheng, and the total number of people in the city was less than 10,000, and later after the adaptation of Yeqing, it was officially named the Demon Suppression Army, relying on Baicheng's strong financial base, and the size of the army also grew to 20,000 in a short period of time. Although the number has been raised, due to insufficient training, the overall combat effectiveness of the army has not been qualitatively improved, and once it encounters a strong immortal martial master, it is difficult to break through the barriers, and there is a lack of effective offensive and defensive strategic means.

The battle of Fengdemon Ridge is the best embodiment.

In that battle, although the 7,000 demon army in Dusk City was completely annihilated and captured an enemy general, for Baicheng, the destruction of 7,000 enemies and the loss of 3,000 can only be called a tragic victory. Moreover, Bai Muxue, Sang Yao, and Yinshuang were all seriously injured to varying degrees in that battle, especially Bai Muxue, Qingdan Pavilion said that he had to recuperate for half a month before he could get out of bed.

It was also this battle that completely shocked the people of Baicheng.

The people who were content with the status quo never knew that there were a group of orcs who drank blood and had already fought with Bai Cheng, and it was not until this morning that they saw the embarrassed demon slaying army returning to the city that they knew that Bai Cheng was in danger of breaking the city. As soon as the war spread, it caused a lot of panic in the city, and a large number of sighing and sighing people lined up in a long line at the gate of the northern city with large bags and small bags on their backs, pulling children, and they wanted to leave the customs and leave the homeland of Baicheng, where they were born and raised! Chu Yunchuan sent a steady Wuwei to appease the people, and it was not easy to stabilize the overall situation.

Three days later, Chu Yunchuan summoned the four pavilion elders and Bai Jian Qi to discuss the deployment of Baicheng in the White Palace.

“...... Through the confession of that prisoner of war, Qi Tian's purpose of this night attack is indeed to run for you, but there is one thing we can't ignore, since he has established Guidui City in the Dragon Domain and continues to expand his army, his ambition must be to aim at the world!" Qingdan Pavilion said cautiously: "Right now, to defend Baicheng is to defend the world. ”

Chu Yunchuan nodded noncommittally.

The southern region is barren, bounded by mountains and dangerous walls, stretching for thousands of miles from east to west. Although the boundary is long, there are only three dangerous exits along the way, one is the Fengdemon Ridge in the eastern section, one is the Tianchuan in the middle section, and the other is the Weiming Valley in the western section. Compared to the danger of Tianchuan and Weiming Valley, the eastern section of the Demon Ridge is a relatively flat road out of the wilderness, and it is also the closest to the Dragon Domain to the Dusk City, and it is an inevitable choice for Qi Tian to exit from here.

The old Bai Ce of the Jade Scripture Pavilion said worriedly: "Now Qi Tian has two fierce minions of immortality and earth demons, and there are still more than 70,000 people in addition to the dead and wounded...... I'm afraid it's hard to preserve. ”

On the high position of the city lord, Bai Jian Qi, who had no taboos, crossed his legs, carried a bunch of watery grapes and said while eating: "What are you afraid of, with my master here, one person can top a million demon army, come and kill a few." ”

"The young master must not be underestimated. Daoqi Pavilion Old Bai Shiqin analyzed: "Qi Tian can come to this point, the means are so strong, very people can imagine. If he entangles the Divine Division, the rest of the people will rush up, and the Divine Priest will be helpless, and besides, we don't know how many fierce generals there are in Twilight City. ”

"Hmm. Bai Cehua echoed: "It is imperative to further strengthen the defense of Baicheng. ”

Chu Yunchuan, who was preoccupied, kept pacing back and forth in the hall.

After pondering for a while, he made his words clear and said, "Right now, the recreation of the derivative realm is imminent, and I can't afford to be distracted from guarding Baicheng. Baicheng, you need to have your own demonic power, I suggest, let Jian Qi inherit the city lord of Baicheng first, assisted by the four of you pavilion elders, first, you can stabilize the people's hearts, and second, you can also better organize the forces around you, expand the army and defend the city. ”

Hearing this, the four pavilion elders nodded their heads in unison, indicating that they had no objections.

"This ......" Bai Jianqi, who had been maintaining a posture of crossing his legs, suddenly fidgeted a little, as if there was a needle under his buttocks, he stood up in a panic, scratched the back of his head and smiled dryly: "Master, I just came out of the derivative world, I don't understand anything, didn't you push me into the fire pit?" I think...... So what...... I still have something to do, so I won't play with you......"

If a contemptuous gaze can kill a person, Bai Jian Qi is not enough to die thousands of times.

Especially the old Bai Bushi of the Iron Law Pavilion, who had not spoken for a long time, almost spewed fire in his eyes, and the sleeves of his coat were rustling, and he almost rushed up to extinguish that unsuccessful bastard thing.

Lao Tie is a somewhat short-tempered person, who went deep into the wilderness with Bai Jianqi's father, Bai Fan, and lost a left arm, and his hatred for the reckless demon beast is much stronger than that of ordinary people. However, although he is missing an arm, he is not lacking in his heart and eyes, as long as Bai Jian Qi's ass is cocked, he immediately knows what this bastard wants to fart; at this juncture, he will never let this bastard continue to fall, that is not only sorry for the ancestors and ancestors of Baicheng, but also sorry for the title of "Iron Law" on his head.

When Bai Jian Qicang fled in panic, Lao Tie's empty sleeves were excited, and he quickly locked Bai Jian Qi's neck like a life-killing immortal, and scolded: "You bastard boy who doesn't learn and doesn't know how to do it, today in front of your master, I have to clean up your degenerate bad roots!"

Lao Tie jerked hard, trying to overturn Bai Jianqi to the ground.

Unexpectedly, Bai Jianqi, this kid, took advantage of the situation, and his body was like a light flying kite, flying back a few steps in the air. He tugged at the sleeve of his shirt that was tightly locked in his throat, and made a voice that would not give in with difficulty: "Lao Tie, I am a person who knows how to obey the old and love the young, don't you force me to bully you! I'll give you one last chance, will you let go? No! Put your sleeves, can you put your sleeves?!"

"Hey, it's against you!" Lao Tie pulled his empty sleeves again and said, "If I can't cure you today, I won't call it Iron Law!"

The left sleeve has no arm, and it is difficult to exert strength, but the strength of the iron law is the strength of the immortal martial arts emanating from the body. He also knew that Bai Jianqi's kid was no longer what it used to be, and he didn't dare to be too careless, this pull immediately urged eighty percent of his strength, and Bai Jianqi's face was red and his neck was thick, as if his head was about to move, and he couldn't make a sound when he held his breath.

Seeing that Bai Jian Qi was a little overwhelmed, a ball of fire suddenly burned from his neck, and quickly spread towards Tie Lu along the empty sleeves. Seeing this, Chu Yunchuan couldn't help but be taken aback, and shouted, "Presumptuous!" hurriedly spit out a palm of cold qi and hit Bai Jian Qi's body.

In an instant, Bai Jian Qi was like a deflated ball, and the fire rising from his neck was instantly extinguished in the cold breath. Tie Lu also seemed to realize the difference in strength between himself and Bai Jianqi, hurriedly withdrew his sleeves, shook his head and sighed: "Alas...... ...... don't hesitate."

Bai Jianqi rubbed his aching neck, and secretly glanced at Chu Yunchuan from the corner of his eye, just like the expression of a child who has made a mistake when facing a lesson from his parents, and he didn't dare to speak loudly: "I'm just playing with Lao Tie, I can't go online." ”

"You know that the Iron Law Pavilion elders are afraid of fire, is this a game?!" Chu Yunchuan said: "No matter what, the four major pavilion elders are all the elders of Baicheng, even if you inherit the city lord, you can't be so rude! What's more, you are nothing now!"

"Forget it...... Tie Lu saw that Bai Jianqi was scolded so much that he didn't dare to raise his head, and stood up quite distressed and persuaded: "This kid is the same as his father when he was young, his heart is not bad, but he is a little playful, young, who doesn't want to be uninhibited and chic for a few years." ”

"Hmph!" Chu Yunchuan said sharply: "Go down and prepare, and hold a succession ceremony on a certain day!"

"Oh. ”

When he left the White Palace, Bai Jianqi kept his head drooping, and his heart was mixed. Of course, he didn't complain about a few pavilion elders, nor did he complain about Chu Yunchuan, he knew very well that sooner or later he would inherit the city lord of Baicheng, but he didn't expect this day to come so soon. He had only been away from the derivative realm for three days, three days, unprepared, and most importantly, he felt that his life should not be frozen in a chair symbolizing power so quickly.

With a depressed heart, he walked aimlessly, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the True Martial Pavilion.

The unrestrainedness of the True Martial Pavilion was no different from more than ten years ago, and there was no half of the guards guarding the door.

When I walked to the door, I could still hear the carefree laughter of the past, although that laughter was accompanied by the pain of the flesh left by the whipping of my mother, and exuded a smell of gold medicine, but I was very happy. Bai Jianqi stroked the stone beast that had gone through the wind and frost in front of the steps and never faded, and said with emotion: "Brothers, I haven't seen you for more than ten years, I have always missed you, but ...... In the future, I may not have much time to frolic with you, and there is a chair waiting for me to sit in the White Palace. ”

"It's not life and death, why be depressed. ”

A familiar voice came from behind, accompanied by steady footsteps, and that unique dull tone, there was no need to look back, Bai Jian Qi also knew who it was.

"Wuwei, my brother!" Bai Jianqi evoked a faint wry smile, was silent for a moment, and said in a lengthened tone: "Do you really don't know or fake don't know? I, Bai Jianqi! I am not born to be the material of the city lord, if you have to push me to that position, doesn't that push the people of Baicheng into the fire pit?"

"Not really. ”

Wu Wei brought a pot of wine.

After the two of them sat down on the steps, Wu Wei took a sip first, and then as if he had drunk poison, his two eyebrows were twisted together. He gritted his teeth and took a smooth breath, handed the wine jug to Bai Jian Qi, and said meaningfully: "I never drink, but I can learn to drink, and one day I can adapt to its fierceness." ”

", these are two different things, you can't bear the strength of the wine, it's just you who die, I can't hold that chair, it's the people of the whole city who die......" Bai Jian Qi raised the pot and took a sip, as if relieving his sorrow, and began to look forward to the ideal future: "Actually, my biggest dream is to fight the sword world, sweep away the world's eyesore, collect the world's little beauties, and then ...... When I was desperate, there was a home where I could be sheltered, even if it was a little bleeding or a whip that would give me a beating. ”

"You're called a slut. ”

"Yes, it's cheap, didn't you always call me a cheap? Speaking of the past, Bai Jianqi did not feel ashamed at all, but felt that this was a rare honor. He smiled disapprovingly: "Let's just say that our master, what kind of person do you think he is? Hasn't he always longed to unload his burden and return to the mountains and forests with a beautiful woman? ”

Wuwei was stunned and speechless.

Bai Jianqi chattered endlessly: "In the end, he is also a cheap man by nature, but he is more cheap than me, a little more reserved than me, that's all; you say, how can he be embarrassed to push me into the fire pit?

"Shizun is a visionary. Wuwei said solemnly: "He has his reasoning, you just do it." ”

"Can you say something from the heart?" Bai Jian Qi glared at him, and said with great disdain: "In view of your sincerity, I have to think carefully about whether to help you say good things in front of Mu Xue, after all, that is my own sister-in-law, only this one, there is no semicolon, her joys, sorrows, and sorrows are my joys, sorrows, and sorrows." ”

"Whatever. ”

"Hey, what's your attitude?"

"My attitude doesn't matter. Wu Wei walked beside him and said: "Now, Yeqing is in command of the entire demon subduing army, before you inherit the throne, you should communicate with him, at least, you must have a certain understanding of this person, if you can make him assist you like Mu Xue did at the beginning, your future road will be much smoother." ”

"Hey, you're leaving? ”

"I made an appointment for you to meet at the Dongcheng Tavern at noon, don't be late. ”
