Chapter 204: Ambush Behind the Iron Gate

The purpose of the corpse raising faction is too obvious, that is, they want to kill me directly while I am not on a firm foothold!

The Assassins sent are only the first ploy, the purpose is to attract our attention, and their real target is the Red River Valley, and they want to take advantage of the opportunity to wreak havoc on the Witch Cult. As long as the Red River Valley is lost, I will naturally be finished, and I have to admit that this trick kills two birds with one stone, it is too vicious!

Soon!

The sword guards in the mountain hall were all gathered, no more, no less, there were twenty-four in total, and eight of them were either out of town and could not be returned, or could not be contacted.

Divide these people into three groups according to their strength, eight people in each group, and hand them over to Tang Longhong Tianci Situ Gaohan for three, let them bring enough supplies, and we will immediately go to the Red River Valley. In addition to these members, Hong Zixuan also came along, and with the three of them by my side, my heart was much more stable.

No matter what, these three are all masters of the Spirit Transformation Realm, and they can all take charge on their own.

As long as there is no full-scale conflict with the corpse cultivators, we should be able to deal with the crisis in the Red River Valley.

"Do you want to mobilize the rest of the backers?"

Hong Zixuan walked over and whispered to me: "If the corpse raising faction attacks the nest, we people alone may not be able to resist it!"

Because of Hong Tianci, the contradiction between me and Hong Zixuan has been eliminated!

This matter is related to the honor and disgrace of all of us, and even related to our life and death, and this time he finally stands on the same side as me, no longer antagonistic.

"Since it's a sneak attack, it's impossible for the number of corpse cultivators to be too many!"

I thought for a moment and said to the three elders, "If we go out of our nest, the Corpse Raising Sect will definitely not continue to attack, and we will run away in vain!"

Opportunities and risks coexist!

Elder Meng gave me two tasks, the first was to integrate the sword guard, and the second was to solve the trouble of the corpse cultivation faction.

I thought about it for a long time, it was unrealistic to destroy the Corpse Raising Sect, unless it was strongly supported by the Witch Cult, it was obviously impossible.

It is also unrealistic to negotiate with the corpse cultivators, and even if the negotiation is successful, the price to pay will be unimaginably large, and the backer cannot afford it, and I cannot afford to pay the responsibility of signing an unequal agreement. The best way is to force peace by war, first beat up the corpse-raising faction, and then take the initiative to negotiate peace and force the corpse-raising faction to the negotiating table.

That way, things will be much easier!

"It's ready!"

After about fifteen minutes, the Great Elder said to me, "You can go at any time!"

Let's go!

Came to the parking lot, let Situ Gaohan take his team to take the lead, Tang Long led the people to break off, kept a distance of 2 kilometers from each other, and advanced towards the Red River Valley.

This time I didn't drive by myself, but sat in his car with the Great Elder.

Sitting in the back seat, I was nervous and excited, this is also a fateful battle, if I play well, I will stand firm in the backing hall. If you don't fight well, you will either die at the hands of the Corpse Cultivators, or you will be executed by the Witch Cult for losing the Red River Valley.

This battle can only be won, and it must not be defeated!

And you must win beautifully, so that you can convince the public!

"You don't look nervous!"

Seeing that I was still calm, the Great Elder leaned back in his chair and laughed softly: "When I led the team for the first time, I was so scared that my hands and feet were weak and I almost peed my pants. ”

"Of course I'm afraid!"

I smiled bitterly: "But what if you're afraid, you can only fight hard, there is no choice!"

To protect the people you love!

For revenge!

I can only fight this battle, and I must not run away from it!

I looked at the table below, and it was half past four in the afternoon, seven or eight hours before midnight. The Red River Valley is not particularly far from the Gushantang, just in the territory of Yudu County, and it will not take more than four hours to drive from here.

When we arrived in Xudu County, we headed directly to the southwest.

There are many hills and valleys in the area of Xudu, and I went to a remote place, and soon I was dizzy, and then plunged into the mountains.

After driving into the mountain for more than 40 minutes, a fork suddenly appeared on the mountain road, and the driver turned directly up.

I glanced ahead, and there was a cliff not far from the fork in the road, and there was no way to go.

Seeing that the car was about to rush out of the cliff, I panicked to death, but the Great Elder was as steady as Mount Tai. I seem to understand something, this is an extremely profound illusion array, unless you have the ability to see through the sky and the like, you can't see through the illusion here.

Really!

After the car rushed off the cliff, it did not fall, but a new mountain road appeared.

Compared to the road just now, this road was full of gloomy and ghostly aura, and there were ghostly fires swaying everywhere, and I could vaguely see many ghosts watching us in the distance, and this place was like a ghost domain.

"This road leads to the real capital city!"

Looking at the visions around him, the Great Elder smiled and said, "But people and ghosts have different paths, even if we are ghost keepers, we don't dare to get close to there, otherwise we will never come back!"

The car moved on.

After driving inside for nearly an hour, at about ten o'clock in the evening, we finally came to a red valley.

This valley is a dark red color, and at a distance, I can already feel that there is an extremely strong yin aura here. As a living person, I am very disgusted with this place, but the evil spirits are both drunken and crazy, and they like it very much, and they can't wait for me to summon it, and they all can't wait to get out of it, and take a big gulp of the air here.

"Many ghost keepers have applied to work in the Red River Valley!"

Looking at the valley in front of him, the Great Elder said calmly: "In this place, it is easy for the ghost slave to cultivate to the level of a green ghost general, because the air here is too thick, and every breath of air is equivalent to devouring a few Yin Qi beads!"

When they got here, the drivers all slowed down.

The car slowly approached the Red River Valley, and I saw that outside the canyon, there was a black stone wall with people on it.

Immediately a group of people climbed the walls of the city and pointed their bows and crossbows at us.

"Who?"

One of the guards shouted!

"It's me!"

The Great Elder waved at the guard and shouted to him, "Open the door!"

Seeing that it was the Great Elder, the stone door in the middle slowly opened, and a more intense yin qi rushed to his face, and the yin qi here seemed to be a little thicker.

Driving the car behind the stone gate, I saw rows of black houses built on both sides, but I didn't see the machinery and equipment for producing yin qi beads.

"Why are you here?"

As soon as we entered, five old men immediately greeted us!

I can feel that these five old people are not very old, but they have been staying in this ghost place all year round, and their bodies have been seriously eroded by yin qi, and the yang qi in their bodies is very weak, as if they will die at any time.

"The Corpse Cultivators want to mess with us!"

The Great Elder glanced at the five old men, pointed at me and said, "We're here to garrison, this is the new Red Stick!"

"Third Master!"

The five old men, who were much older than me, still shouted respectfully, which made me a little weird!

"How many guards are there in the valley now?"

I asked the five old men, "Who is in charge of this, and how many intersections are there in and out?"

"Eighty guards!"

One of the old men took two steps forward and hurriedly said, "My name is Zhao Wencai, I am the person in charge here, in addition to the gate, I can also sneak in from the blood river, there are fifteen people stationed there!"

Eighty is not a small number!

My heart moved, and I said to Zhao Wencai: "Take me to the Blood River to see!"

With walls at Taniguchi and so many guards, it shouldn't be a big problem!

I'm worried about the Blood River, and if the Corpse Cultivators want to sneak attack, they will definitely come in through the Blood River. Once you are attacked from both sides, you will be in big trouble!

"Please!"

Zhao Wencai smiled at me and said, "I'll take you to see the defense of the Blood River!"

Good!

I glanced at the three elders and asked Hong Zixuan and Elder Wang Hong Tianci Situ Gaohan to take two teams to stay outside, and Great Elder and Tang Long to lead a team of people to follow me and go to the other side of the Blood River to have a look.

All the way forward.

After walking for more than a mile, I saw a large cave in the canyon, which was constantly spewing out yin qi, which should be the source of the yin qi of the canyon. On top of the cave, there is a very strong iron gate, which hangs from it.

If necessary, the iron gate can be lowered at any time to seal the hole.

I was just about to go inside when my phone rang suddenly!

I casually touched it out, and read it as I walked, this text message was sent by Elder Yue: Zhao Wencai has been bought by us, there is an ambush behind the iron gate, be careful!
