Chapter 132: Strange General
The direction of the blind man, Tie Zhu, and Jin Suo is the west, and the west side of the nether world is the underworld, with a high wall spanning the north and south in the middle, dividing the netherworld into two.
The high wall is several hundred meters high, it looks good from a distance, if you stand at the root of the wall and look up, you can hardly see the top, the material of the wall is just ordinary rock, but the craftsmanship of the wall is very good.
The walls were so smooth that ordinary people couldn't climb and cross them at all, but for cultivators, these weren't a problem, and a stone wall of a few hundred meters couldn't stop them.
But for thousands of years, the creatures on both sides have never heard of being able to successfully cross the high wall to the other side's realm, whether it is flying or climbing, as long as they reach a certain height, they will inexplicably lose a body of mana and fall to the ground.
The difference is only the height of the rise, the higher the strength, the higher the height, but the more dangerous it will be, because there is still a certain danger of falling from a high place after losing a body of mana.
Unless you are a cultivator who specializes in cultivating the body, you can not be afraid of the huge impact of free fall, but as long as you fall from a height of more than 100 meters, you will still be injured.
After losing mana, you have to fall to the ground to recover, there are no exceptions, and no one can find the reason and give a reasonable explanation, so there is no one who tries to climb and cross without injury, and the higher the strength, the more cautious the person is, but will not try it easily.
After a long time, everyone slowly lost interest in crossing the high wall, and then accepted its existence, although there are still many people who have ideas about the underworld, and can only take a roundabout way to go to the other side through other channels.
Although Zhang Blind did not move fast, he barely stopped on the road, so he was the fastest way to reach his destination among the four people.
He came to the high wall and did not inspect the surroundings everywhere, but directly found a relatively flat place to sit cross-legged and took out a white paper lotus flower from his arms.
Although the lotus flower is paper, it looks lifelike, and there is a layer of mist on the surface of the surface.
Zhang Blind lit it with a fire in his hand, and after the paper lotus burned out, he threw off the ashes in his hand, and then closed his eyes and waited for news from the other three people.
Tie Zhu and Jin Suo arrived at the scene half a day later than him, but the two of them did not stop here, and after greeting the blind man, they scattered and walked to both sides of the high wall, as if looking for something.
A day later, Zhang Blind Man received a message from the Smoke Woman, which was an invisible light wave like a water ripple, Zhang Blind Man opened his eyes and thought about it after feeling the light wave, closed his eyes again and meditated, and continued to wait.
For three days, seven days, and ten days, no new light waves were received, proving that the other two groups of people had not yet reached their destination, or had arrived but had not yet sent light waves to him.
Either case, it was not normal, but Zhang Blind did not have any nervousness or impatience, and still sat quietly cross-legged, without even opening his eyes.
Among the other two people, the mummy has been trapped by the strange lawn, and he doesn't have any assistants along the way, so it is estimated that there will be no follow-up.
But in addition, the people and horses heading due north did not hear from them, which is too strange.
Because the road due north is led by the general who looks very powerful, and there are two female hermits who are not weak behind him, and the north is dominated by the demon clan, and it is not as chaotic as the demon clan in the west, let alone the chaotic land in the south.
And the first half of the journey is very smooth, if there is no accident, it should be faster than Zhang Blind, and it should not be that there is no news until now.
The mysterious general, who was two meters tall and had a black robe and hood, was indeed in a normal hurry from the beginning to the halfway point, and he did not embarrass the two female hermits behind him.
But after half a distance, he gradually increased his movement speed, and slowly left the female hermit behind him far behind.
As time passed, the distance between the two sides continued to increase, but the hermit himself was an expert in tracking and hiding, and these two were specially selected to carry out the mission, so he could barely keep up with the general's footsteps in the first few days.
However, when the distance between the two sides was more than a day's foot, the general was completely lost, and the two discussed it, so they had to continue to advance in the direction of due north, hoping to dare to reach the destination before the final mission began.
But after a day, they lost the possibility of participating in the mission forever, because the general suddenly turned back and stopped directly in front of the two of them.
The two female hermits did not know what the general meant, so they had to stop and salute the general and wait for the general's instructions.
Although the two sides are not affiliated with the same force, after all, this mission is a joint cooperation of several forces, and for the time being, everyone is still their own people.
And the general is one of the four hosts of this mission, and his strength is also higher than them, so it is necessary to maintain a certain amount of respect for the general.
However, the general did not salute them, and only stood in silence 10 meters in front of them.
One of the female hermits couldn't help but step forward and said, "General, what's the matter?"
Although the female hermit speaks Chinese, her accent is not like Chinese, but like the end of the voice in Southeast Asia.
The general did not continue to be silent this time, but still said in the standard Chinese in the voice of men and women:
"You don't have to participate in this mission. ”
The two female hermits glanced at each other for some reason, and said to the one who spoke just now:
"What do you mean, General, how can we not participate in this mission? This is an agreement between several of our forces, the four of you will carry out the mission, and we will assist later. ”
Although everyone knew it, the female hermit did not resort to the word surveillance, but only said assistance.
The general still said with no emotion:
"The mission will continue, but you don't have to participate, go back immediately and report to your patriarch, just say that it is my decision, otherwise it will ......"
Hearing the word "otherwise", the two female hermits immediately retreated to the edge of the woods not far away, assuming a defensive posture, and the other female hermit, who had not spoken, said:
"General, we don't know what you mean, this time you have your mission, we also have our mission, we don't need to follow your orders, so your decision is invalid, we will continue to stay. ”
The general didn't seem to see that the two of them had already put on a fighting posture, and still stood in place, and even the tone of his voice did not change.
"This is my decision, if you listen to it, you will turn back immediately, if you don't listen......"
After saying that, the general raised his head slightly, although there was a hood to cover it, the lifting was not large, and no part of his face was exposed, but the two female ninjas were in shape.
Although the general had not had any posture of fighting until now, the two female hermits felt in their hearts that an invisible huge pressure had been placed under their hood, and their bodies couldn't help but tense their muscles, and their hands and feet began to sweat.
It stands to reason that at their level of strength, the control of the body has reached a microscopic level, and there is almost no uncontrollable muscles and sweating, and the other party has not yet made any moves.
And the two of them are still hermits, and they have received the harshest self-control training since they were children, and they can be said to have today's strength to fight back.
But this time, in the face of the general who was just standing there quietly, he actually sweated instinctively, proving that the general's deterrence of them had reached the point where he could suppress their subjective will, which directly affected their survival instinct.
The body is honestly telling them that the person in front of them can directly threaten their lives, and it can be done at any time.
Before leaving, the two female hermits were still full of confidence, although subjectively they were reluctant to admit it, but the real reaction of their bodies made them clearly know that the general in front of them was invincible.
I used to think that although the strength was not as good as the general, as long as the two of them joined forces, they could always fight, at least there should be no problem in saving their lives.
Now I know how ridiculous my thoughts are, not to mention fighting, just standing in front of the general is almost unbearable.
Such a difference in strength made the two of them very helpless, and Fei Zang wanted to walk away like this to avoid this strong enemy that made their souls tremble.
But the task on the body makes it impossible for the two of them to have such a chance, since they accepted the task, if they don't complete it or die in battle, they will die when they go back, and the second female hermit who spoke out had to force a calm and said:
"General, we also have a mission to do, and we can't leave here until the mission is completed, please be considerate of the general. ”
After speaking, the two female hermits clasped the strongest secret weapon on their right hands, ready to be activated at any time, and their left hands were holding a * and a poison bomb respectively.
The two have been working together for many years, and they can assign their respective jobs almost with just one look.
"In that case, so be it. ”
After the general finished speaking, he slowly stretched out his right hand in his robe and pressed it against the two female hermits.
It was a crystal clear slender hand, although the general was two meters tall and his palm was not petite, but the slender fingers and jade-like skin gave people the first feeling of being a slender jade hand.
Although the bodies of the two female hermits were already tense to the point of being a little numb, they were not slow to react after many years of hard training, and when the general's shoulders moved slightly, they had already shot out all the things in their hands, and they also immediately kicked off the ground.
A dagger, a dart, and a poison bomb flew quickly towards the general, and another * smashed into the feet of the two people, whose feet had already stepped into the ground a few centimeters, and with a single force, they could jump into the woods behind them, and then they would have a chance to escape, and the general's hands had not left their robes at this time.
However, the general's right hand, which seemed to be slowly outstretched, came first and pressed it on the two of them before they left the ground.
The scene seemed to be frozen, the dagger landed, the dart landed, and the poison bomb landed, and the three weapons failed to play a role in application, but the smoke smashed to the ground smoothly, but there was no explosion.
The two female ninjas clearly saw the whole process, but they couldn't change anything, watching all the weapons fail, and what was even more terrifying was that they felt as if a mountain was pressing on their bodies, trying to squash them.
