Chapter 197: Recall
Zhang Yu saw that he was standing on a circular stone plate, which was exactly where he had come the first few times, and the position had not changed, but the surrounding environment was different.
The stone disc at his feet was now a high stone platform, with three steps on all sides, surrounded by a heavy stone wall, opposite only a stone door leading to the outer room, and a high dome on top, which was a large and relatively closed hall with no one but himself.
This undoubtedly shows that this place has been transferred from the original front line of the war to the rear, otherwise it would not be possible to build such a building in peace.
He felt it at this time, compared to before, he was now much higher, and he could feel that he was faintly falling somewhere.
At this moment, even if you don't use the jade talisman, you can turn back in a single thought.
But if you want to go to the lower levels, if you don't have guidance, it will be difficult to find your way back.
And the lower level of supernatural powers is not visible, the power projection is extinguished, it's a big deal to turn around and come again, but if the body falls here, once killed, it is really dead.
At this moment, he tried to sense it, and he could vaguely sense the chapter of the Great Dao, but he couldn't summon it, or the power projection couldn't be seen at all.
He has tried this in the past, but even if he takes the duality, it still hasn't changed, and it is obvious that it is indeed impossible to fill in the "Seal of Knowing Me" by power projection alone, only he can come here in person.
After thinking about it, he had found a way to follow, but it was enough to be called a risk, and there was no guarantee of success, but there was never a guarantee of absolute safety on the way to cultivation.
Only before that, he had one more thing to do.
He stepped down from the stone disc and pushed the heavy door open.
A long and narrow corridor appeared in front of it, and at the end of it was a bright skylight.
He walked along this, and soon walked to the outer room, and appeared in front of him was a courtyard, where two armored sergeants were guarding, and one of them saw him come out, and looked at him twice, so he showed a look of surprise, came up and hugged his fist, and said: "Zhang Xuanxiu, do you remember me? ”
He reached out and shook the six fingers on his palm.
Zhang Yu glanced at him, nodded and said, "Sergeant Li, I remember it." He remembered that when he first came to the lower floor of Hong Yi, he saw this and another sergeant surnamed Yang.
He said, "Sergeant Li, aren't you a regular soldier, why are you here?"
Li Bailiang grinned and said: "I retired from the regular army last year, and now I have joined the Wei army and become a mercenary army, although I don't get as much as I used to, but now I don't have to worry about my life in the lower ranks, right?"
Zhang Yuran nodded and said, "How many soldiers like you are there here now?"
Li Bailiang said: "Not much, only more than three hundred, but most of them have followed the main guard to fight, oh, Zhang Xuanxiu, there is still a Xuanxiu stationed here, just on the guard tower there, this one may know more, you can ask him anything." ”
As he spoke, he raised his hand and pointed to a towering stone sentry tower high opposite.
Zhang Yu glanced at it and said, "Thank you." ”
He was on tiptoe, his body slowly floating, and he flew towards it. Even though it's only a projection of power, it's not difficult to make a short flight.
The sentry platform is at the highest point of the entire military base, there are about three or four people standing inside, opening on both sides, with a wide field of vision, and at this moment there is a person holding a sword who is standing there, and he bowed his hand to Zhang Yuyi when he stepped in from the outside, "Xingchuan has seen Xuanzheng. ”
Zhang Yu nodded in return and said, "Xingchuan Daoyou is polite, but you don't need to call me Xuanzheng, before I came here, I had already relieved myself of the position of Qingyang Xuanzheng." ”
Xingchuan Daoren obviously doesn't care about the position or not, in his eyes, only Dao Xing is the fundamental judgment of a cultivator, and what he is chasing is an opponent who can help him improve his strength, so he just nodded at this.
Zhang Yudao: "Is there only Xingchuan Daoyou here? Where are Zuo Daoyou and Ying Daoyou?"
Xingchuan Daoren replied: "The Lord of the Guards led the army to fight in front, and the two Daoists were responsible for supporting the army. In the past few years, the cultists of the evil gods have been defeated and fought repeatedly, but they seem to be unable to finish killing, and they came back not long after retreating, and after the battle line was extended, many gods also learned to raid here.
So we agreed that there should be someone to guard here, and this time I am in charge of guarding this place, in fact, this place is not bad, and someone will always come to the door every once in a while, so that I can try my sword. ”
Zhang Yu nodded slightly, and then he asked in detail, and learned a lot from the Xingchuan Daoist, which was not much different from what the Zuo Daoist had reported.
In order to resist the pressure of many evil god believers, the strategy they are now implementing is to attack instead of defending, the Wei army and many cultivators go deep into the enemy's hinterland to raid and destroy, and the rear is taking advantage of this time to step up recovery.
The team composed of many monks and a large number of battle formation veterans is extremely strong, thousands of people can often defeat tens of thousands of people head-on, plus the support of Ying Yuan and Zuo Daoren, almost no army led by the Divine Descendant can block their attack.
And this practice has been going on in the lower layer for more than ten years, during which the Le Dynasty has been able to recover a large number of lost territories, and if it continues like this, this lower layer will be able to recover all its territory in a few decades.
That's what he was aiming for, but I'm afraid it's going to slow down a bit.
He said, "Do you have the fastest way to contact them?"
Xingchuan Dao said: "The people of the military department also established the Mangguang Telecommunication here, but unlike the outer layer, it can only be used when the weather is good. ”
Zhang Yudao: "Then try to tell them, if the war is not urgent, then take the time to come back, I have something to explain to them, if it is inconvenient, you can also let them set a place, I will go to see them." ”
Xingchuan Daoren was very neat, did not ask for any reason, nodded and said, "I'll go now." ”
Zhang Yudao: "Tired Daoist, I am guarding here." ”
Xingchuan Daoist jumped down from the top of the sentry tower that was fifteen zhang high, and slowly fell to the ground, and his figure flickered a few times, and then disappeared.
It's just that in the past half a summer or so, the Xingchuan Daoist grabbed the edge of the sentry tower with one hand, jumped lightly, and returned to the sentry tower.
He bowed his hand to Zhang Yuyi and said: "Patrol, it has been arranged, but the two sides are far away, and I sent a messenger to deliver the message along the post station, even if the Mangguang message cannot be transmitted, the messenger can bring the news in two or three days at the latest." ”
Zhang Yudao: "Xingchuan Daoyou's arrangement is very proper. ”
He looked into the distance, and the next thing was to wait.
However, things went relatively smoothly, and it didn't make him wait too long, and the Wei army obviously received a message from Mangguang, but half a day later, there was news back, saying that the news had been received, but because the war was fierce, and he couldn't get out for the time being, so he met in a place called Luoshan.
Zhang Yu had already seen the newly drawn map in advance in half a day, and as soon as his mind turned, he knew that this boundary was an unknown hillock, near a pass of a trail leading to the rear, about a day and a half away.
He thought for a moment and said to Xingchuan: "Where will I go." Then he said a few more words, and after the latter listened attentively, he said without hesitation: "Xingchuan knows, and he will act according to orders." ”
After Zhang Yu's care, he immediately got out of the military base and walked to the north, his feet were extremely fast, but half a day later, he came to the vicinity of Luoshan.
Luoshan is a small hill, on which a sentry of fifty people is stationed, and there is a monk named He Chengfan Qingyang who is in charge of guarding, this disciple also knows him, and the two sides of the meeting also saved some trouble, after he arrived, he waited in a spacious tent for everyone to arrive.
After waiting for two days, He Chengfan said in a foreign voice: "Patrol, the guard master and Zuo Xuanxiu have arrived, and I ask to see you." ”
Zhang Yu said: "Let them in." ”
After a while, as soon as the tent was lifted, Wei Lingying and Zuo Daoren walked in together, and after seeing him, the two of them looked straight and saluted: "I have seen the patrol." ”
Zhang Yu nodded and said, "The two of you have worked hard, sit down." ”
The two thanked each other and sat down.
After Wei Lingying sat down, he hugged his fists on the seat and said: "When the patrol came with the news, we happened to be fighting with the enemy, and we couldn't withdraw for the time being, so please punish the patrol." ”
Zhang Yudao: "The guard lord's move is properly handled, how can I blame you for this, how is this war?"
Wei Lingying heard him ask about this, his spirit perked up, and he said: "Back to the patrol, we have won a complete victory this time, and we can have about half a year to ......calm down."
As he spoke, the light outside the tent dimmed, and a black smoke fluttered outside, and then suddenly converged in one place, and then the curtain was lifted, and Ying Yuan walked in from outside, his scarlet eyes glanced at the two people on the seat, and then moved to Zhang Yu's place, and nodded to him.
Zhang Yu also nodded and said, "Senior Brother Ying, please take a seat." ”
Ying Yuan stepped aside and sat down silently.
Zhang Yudao: "I called you here this time to explain something......
And just as he was talking to everyone at the lower level, in front of Tanquanzhou Manor, a monk came, and he just entered the manor with a slight weakness.
He walked through the empty courtyard and came straight to the place where Zhang Yu was, but he had just stepped into the main hall, but his steps were stunned, because there was a formation arranged here, and he stood still immediately.
In the quiet room, Zhang Yu opened his eyes, he flicked his sleeves, walked out from the inside, and saw that the person who came was the Taoist who claimed to be Dai Xuanzun on the road to find him.
He said, "Why are you here?"
The man made a mockery of him and said: "Previously, Poor Dao was ordered by Dai Xuanzun to come to invite, Patrol Zhang said that something has not been dealt with yet, and now Poor Dao was ordered to inquire again, I don't know if the patrol has dealt with the incident now?"
