Chapter 56: Crossing the River

"Is it Yuzhou Lu Zhang on the shore?" Suddenly, a slightly old voice came into Lu Zhang's ears, and when he listened carefully, he found that the voice was actually coming from the Jinjiang River.

"Who is talking!" The guards around him suddenly clenched the weapons in their hands, and someone actually lurked beside Lu Zhang unknowingly, at this time, these guards were nervous one by one, this was their dereliction of duty, if the person who spoke was an assassin, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"If I come out, I hope that the Lord will not be alarmed. The voice came from the river again, but there was still no figure to be seen.

"Although my husband comes out, I, Lu Zhang, am not the kind of person who has never seen the world, so don't worry. Lu Zhang secretly thought in his heart that it was difficult to be a person with strange arts, he must not be a mortal to be able to hide in the river like this, he had also heard that some people with strange arts were ugly, was he afraid that he would judge people by their appearance?

"Stand back, I'm out. As he spoke, a huge shadow appeared on the surface of the river, and the surrounding guards were so panicked that they couldn't stop retreating.

The shadow gradually grew larger, and soon a huge turtle appeared on the surface of the river, its huge body resembling a small island, and its huge head was extremely hideous.

"The old tortoise has seen the human master!" the giant tortoise's mouth opened and closed, making an old sound. Only then did Lu Zhang and the others realize that it was not a person who had been talking to them at all, but such a giant turtle who didn't know how many years he had lived.

Lu Zhang regained his composure after the initial surprise, after all, he had seen a lot of monsters now, and the fear of the unknown for monsters like the old turtle had disappeared.

"I don't know what this demon king is looking for me!" Lu Zhang's face was calm as usual, and he asked calmly.

Seeing this situation, the old turtle nodded secretly in his heart, Lu Zhang's style really has a bit of a master's appearance, and this kind of heart alone is very rare.

"Dare to ask the master, what is the relationship between Mr. Lu Yu and you. ”

"Lu Yu is my uncle, I don't know where the demon king heard this name!" Lu Zhang was also curious, how did this old turtle know the name of his uncle, could it be that he had an old relationship with his uncle?

"I'm just a little demon, how dare I be the name of the demon king, you are Mr. Lu's nephew, I don't dare to let you deign to call me an old turtle." ”

Although I couldn't see the old turtle's expression clearly, I could still hear from the tone that it seemed to be in a good mood.

"Could it be that he has an old relationship with my uncle?" Lu Zhang had never heard Lu Yu say anything about the giant tortoise, so he was also very curious and asked.

"Mr. Lu once preached not far away, there is no class, we are all by Mr. to teach the great grace, but what kind of person is Mr., so we have not been able to find the opportunity to repay the great kindness, you are the son and nephew of Mr., and now you want to cross the north, we are willing to camel the army across the river, in order to reward Mr. kindness. ”

Lu Zhang was overjoyed when he heard this, but he didn't expect that the mountains and rivers were full of doubts, and the willows and flowers were bright and another village. He originally thought that the river was difficult to cross, and he was ready to withdraw his troops and return to the camp, but now if he got the help of the old turtle, he would definitely be able to take Lingshui Pass by surprise.

"Then trouble the old turtle, I will explain this matter to my uncle. ”

The old turtle was very happy when he heard this: "Haha, it's just a trivial matter, I hope Mr. Lu won't blame us for being nosy, brothers don't come out soon, the time has come for us to repay the favor!"

I saw the old turtle shouting to the river, so in front of everyone's eyes, many black shadows appeared from the river, all of them were cultivated water tribes, each with huge bodies.

Lu Zhang gave an order, and the army stepped on many spirits in turn and quietly marched towards Lingshui Pass.

At this time, Lingshui Pass still knew nothing, since they had requisitioned all the ships, they thought that they had peace of mind, and they were not worried that Lu Zhang's army would be able to cross the Jin River, and even their daily patrols were slack.

A group of soldiers was patrolling the city walls, and one of them yawned and said, "Alas!

"Don't complain, when the patrol is over, let's play a few games together?" said the team leader with a smile. Hearing his proposal, everyone was clamoring, for these people, gambling was one of the few pastimes.

"I think let's start now, what kind of patrol are you still patrolling, the ships within a radius of hundreds of miles have been swept away by us, how can the Yuzhou army cross the river, is it possible to fly over with wings. ”

Under the encouragement of everyone, the team leader led them into the city gate tower, and after a while, there was a warm shout inside, and it seemed that they were very excited.

Everyone played for a while, and one of them had already lost several times in a row, so he stood up and said, "It's really bad luck today, I'll come and compete with you when I go to the toilet." ”

"Lao Wang is afraid, is he afraid of being chased and beaten by the tigress at home before he loses. "This old Wang has a fierce wife in his family, if she knows that this person is bound to make trouble because of gambling losses, the family house will be restless, so although several people ridiculed like this, they still got out of the way and let Lao Wang out.

Lao Wang walked out of the gatehouse, found a small corner to solve the three emergencies of life, the wind at night was a little cool so that he couldn't help but shiver, just as he lifted his pants and was about to walk towards the gatehouse, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a large army not far from the city gate.

Rubbing his eyes, wondering if he had lost too much, he was finally sure by the moonlight of the night that an army had quietly marched to the city gate.

"There is an enemy!" Lao Wang didn't care that his trouser belt was not fastened, and let out a roar as he ran inside.

Before the people inside could figure out the situation, they saw Lao Wang rushing from outside the door in a panic, and his trouser belt was still hanging to the side.

The team leader frowned and asked, "What's wrong with you, Lao Wang, where did the enemy come from, isn't it that you have lost too much!"

"Outside, there is a pair of centaurs outside who don't know where they came from and have arrived at the city gate, hurry up!" said Lao Wang gasped.

Only then did the team leader realize the crisis of the situation, hurriedly let people beat drums to warn, and sent people to the general's mansion to inform him, and then went out to investigate.

Looking at the side of a city wall, my heart suddenly cooled for most of the time, although I couldn't see it really because it was dark, but I knew that this was definitely the main force of a large army when I looked at the mighty figure, and I only felt ridiculous in my heart, I don't know where this army came from.

The majestic drum sounded, and everyone in Lingshuiguan was pleasantly surprised from their sleep, and everyone looked at each other without knowing what was going on.

The soldiers on the walls began to panic and put on their equipment, ready to meet the enemy from nowhere.

But Lu Zhang was unwilling to give them time to prepare, and with an order, Liu Qingyun took the lead with his vanguard battalion, and rushed to the front of the city gate before the enemy could react.
