Zhuge Chen stared at the old man suspiciously, and he was finally relieved after feeling the qi that represented the realm of bamboo basket water. He walked to Zhao Da's body, continued to dig a pit and bury the soil, and said, "You said it earlier, I really thought that the identities of the two of us were known by the other people in this team?"

"If Zhuge Gongzi doesn't dislike it, just call me Lao Liu. After all, the status of the two of them in the worship is much higher than mine. The old man opened his mouth and said, "Just now I felt a sword qi rising up in the dense forest, so I rushed over. Otherwise, according to common sense, I shouldn't be in front of the two of you. ”

There is a rule for the Dayan Imperial Court to do things, that is, each does its own thing and does not interfere with each other. This has also led to the fact that since the beginning of the sorrow, the relationship between the worshippers is as light as water, and many of them are not even nodding friends. This is also one of the methods used by the royal family to manage the offerings, after all, these cultivators who are not low in the realm can use a great killing weapon that can make the enemy country unpredictable, but if they are not used well, they will threaten themselves. Lao Liu followed among the centaurs this time, just in case, and he was more able to control the overall situation. After all, if he really encounters the trouble that Zhuge Chen and Wang Daxue can't solve, he will not be able to return to the sky with a bamboo basket to draw water.

Zhuge Chen put down the shovel and shook his arm, taking it as a way to take a breath for himself. He watched Wang Daxue put Zhao Da's body into the dirt pit, and then began to work hard again, covering the soil on top of the corpse, and after a while, the battle in this dense forest was as if it had never happened.

"What is this trip for?" asked Zhuge Chen, turning his head to Lao Liu.

Seeing that there was no way to continue to conceal it, Lao Liu had no choice but to say: "It is a peerless sword blade called Prisoner, and it will definitely be able to sell for a sky-high price if it is taken to the land outside the law." After all, the news was released a long time ago, so I was afraid that someone with a heart would stop and snatch it halfway. Otherwise, we don't need to go out to worship the court. However, this trip may seem dangerous, but it is much more comfortable than the previous mission. ”

As for why the news was released early, Zhuge Chen was clear in his heart. Because only in this way can the price of the Prison Sword rise in the midst of everyone's scramble. Nowadays, for Dayan, who is in the midst of an eventful season, the reserves in the treasury are almost squandered, so the more money and one thing, the more the better. Besides, no one dislikes having a lot of money in their pockets, and a country is no exception.

Wang Daxue seemed to think of something, so she asked, "In addition to Lao Liu, are there any other offerings that are also with you?"

Lao Liu rubbed his hands and replied, where is the appearance of a cultivator in the realm of drawing water with a bamboo basket, like a farmer who is farming in the field and stealing empty rest: "The two of you are asking the right person about this matter, I am the person in charge of the people arranged by the imperial court this time, and I have the right to lead the rest of the offerings." It's just that the two of you are detached, and I just know that the two of you are also among the people, but you don't have the right to call them. Although there are a lot of imperial court offerings in this escort, I am the only one with the highest realm. The bamboo basket fetchs water, and it is naturally unattainable for those grandmasters to be placed in the rivers and lakes of the market, and there is no need to worry about thieves taking away the prison sword along the way. But in that extralegal place, to be honest, it's still a bit insufficient. ”

Zhuge Chen didn't know much about the land outside the law, after all, he had never been there. I just heard a rough idea, where is the real strength respected, even if you are the prince of a country, what can you do? If you don't know the truth of lying down and being a grandson, you can kill as if you are a grandson, even if the four countries raise troops to attack, they may not be able to sweep away the entire land outside the law. There are as many as three of them in the realm of the Pure Dao alone. They are the three sect masters of the Fei Zheng Sect, the Teng Emperor Sect and the Sea Waterfall Cave. Just such a battle is staggering. Not to mention that among these three sects, there are many cultivators whose realm is lower than the Zhen Dao, but they are in the realm of drawing water in a bamboo basket. In addition to these three sects, there are more than 100 sects of all sizes in the land outside the law, all of which are forces that should not be underestimated.

It's just that the land outside the law has its own world, and it will not come out on weekdays, and naturally it will not threaten the whole world.

Lao Liu explained, and then said: "The two of you don't have to worry about it in the slightest, in addition to the Prison Sword, we are escorting a lot of priceless heavenly treasures this time, all of which will be directly sent to the auction jointly organized by the three sects that cover the sky in the land outside the law." As long as it is safe to get there, I believe that no one dares to think crookedly. ”

Zhuge Chen nodded silently, stayed in the dense forest for a while, and the three of them walked back to the camp. By this time a fire had been lit, and a group of people sat down around the flame, and began to share the meal that had taken them a long time to make, and many jars of fine wine were taken out. At this moment, a woman walked to the open space in the middle, and with a cough, she signaled everyone to be quiet, and then said, "Thank you for being able to escort our team to the outside of the law." ”

The woman is not very beautiful, but she has the bearing of a woman who does not let her eyebrows go. Especially in front of everyone, there is no stage fright, this is not a mentality that can be cultivated in a day or two. Thinking back then, when Zhuge Chen, the former god king, first appeared in front of the elders of the Zhuge family, he was still a little shy. But the woman was down-and-out and generous, which really made the white clothes a little admired today.

He turned his head and asked Wang Daxue, "Do you know who that woman is?"

Wang Daxue shook his head, but one of the people on the side answered Zhuge Chen's question: "Brother has a good eye, that woman's name is Zeng Ruoyu, and she is the young only daughter of our Dayan Prime Minister's family. She is very famous in the capital, and many children of families who also have strength hope to marry her as their wives. It's a pity that people like the cultivators in the rivers and lakes, not those freshly dressed and angry horses in the capital who rely on their own background. It is precisely because of this that we ordinary people who are also mixed in the market have a chance to do so. If anyone can capture such a famous flower, they will not have to worry about life from now on. ”

Zhuge Chen smiled lightly and said, "It's really interesting. ”

It is very likely that the ordinary little jasper will yearn for the rivers and lakes after reading some books, but when he is older, he will not be obsessed with it. But it is really rare for a lady like that who was born in the prime minister's family to have such an idea.

He turned his head and continued to listen to Zeng Ruoyu's eloquent conversation: "Although everyone is doing things with money, after all, they have also made a lot of effort, Zeng Ruoyu is here to thank everyone." You are all the people of Dayan, and I believe you all know the importance of this escort. I hope that in the next trip, everyone will not take it lightly, as long as they can arrive safely, our Prime Minister's Mansion will give you another 10,000 taels of gold!"

As soon as her words fell, it naturally aroused the excited voices of everyone. A few words can cause a hundred responses from the escort group, and it can indeed be seen that the woman's methods are extraordinary. Just by taking out 10,000 taels of gold, ordinary women can't compare. Not to mention that Zeng Ruoyu still held a very important position in this escort, Zhuge Chen even felt that the one who took office after the previous prime minister who died in his hands was the one who had the intention to cultivate his only daughter. The most important thing is that the emperor would put Zeng Ruoyu in such an important position, under the protection of Zhuge Chen and other imperial courts, there was no danger in this trip. Now that I think about it, when this group of people returns to the capital, they can soar to the sky with their merits. Among them, the person who benefited the most must be Zeng Ruoyu.

Zhuge Chen said to himself: "What a good means!"

With that, he went back to the tent. Although the atmosphere around the campfire was good, it was not liked by Zhuge Chen. It's better to waste time here, than to sharpen your Haoran sword qi. It's just that in order to avoid being detected by others, he needs to cover it with a gas machine and be careful.

In the middle of the night, Zhuge Chen walked out of the tent and walked in the bright moonlight. In his two sleeves, the sword qi was agitated, and he almost wanted to rush out, but he was suppressed by him. Otherwise, let the sword qi sweep by, and everyone here will not have to sleep.

He walked to the lake and scooped up a handful of water to cleanse his face. But the next moment, the ground shook violently, making it difficult for Bai Yi to stand firm, and he fell directly to the ground. He frowned, and the flying sword swept out of his sleeve and flew into the distance. And he stepped on the gap to the clouds, and when he looked down, he saw countless fierce beasts rushing towards him. The scene was extremely spectacular, even if an ordinary Heavenly Mandate Realm cultivator was in it, he would be seriously injured by the collision!

Not to mention that there are still a few Heavenly Destiny Realm demons in the beast tide, and they are rushing towards the camp.

Seeing this, although Zhuge Chen was reluctant to make a move, he couldn't let the beast tide further grow and cause a catastrophe, so he directly wrapped himself with sword qi and rushed into the beast tide. But in the face of countless fierce beasts, even if Haoran Sword Qi has been harvesting their lives, it is still a drop in the bucket. Most of the people on the camp side are mortals, or low-level cultivators with low realms, not to mention stopping the advancement of the beast tide, as long as they are caught in it, eighty percent of them will die. Zhuge Chen didn't believe that there was no one behind this beast tide to help the trouble. It stands to reason that although there is no pattern to the outbreak of animal tides, it is also very rare. Why did this happen on the night they set up camp?

How could it be such a coincidence?

When he was out of his trance, a fierce beast of the Heavenly Destiny Realm crashed into his body. Fortunately, the gap suddenly flew and pierced the eyebrows of the fierce beast, otherwise Zhuge Chen would have suffered a lot of injuries. Bai Yi formed a small building heaven and earth sword formation with two swords, constantly dragging the beast tide over and strangling it with Haoran sword qi. It's just that there is a steady stream of fierce beasts, and they can't be killed at all. Only by finding the person behind the scenes can you get the way to break the game. He released his qi engine, only to notice a man with a black veil covering his face standing on the hill in the distance. He held a flute in his hand, and whenever he played, he saw that the beast under his feet became more and more manic, and he desperately joined the beast tide and rushed towards this side.

Zhuge Chen narrowed his eyes and said in a cold voice: "I found you!"

At this time, the beast tide had already approached the camp of Dayan people, and felt a violent vibration from the ground, and many people had already woken up and walked out. When they saw those fierce beasts under the moon, they couldn't help but exclaim. Wang Daxue didn't see Zhuge Chen's figure, so he was inevitably a little anxious. It wasn't until he saw the Haoran sword qi in the distance that he put his mind at ease. At this moment, he didn't care if he would reveal his identity because of his shot, so he rushed directly to the front of the team, holding the soul breaking knife in his hand across his chest, and roared: "A group of beasts, dare to be so rampant, don't you want to die!"

Lao Liu no longer kept his hands, and when the bamboo basket water realm cultivator was in it, he was like a tiger entering a flock of sheep, and as long as the fierce beast dared to rush, it would die under the thunder in his palm. What he practiced was the thunder method of the most rigid and yang, coupled with the high and profound realm, all the fierce beasts in front of him were shattered by the thunder for a while. It's just that there are too many fierce beasts in the beast tide, and one breath will make up again.

Lao Liu frowned, and said, "How is this good?"

Wang Daxue, who was beside him, became more and more courageous, and he didn't know how many fierce beasts had died under the Soul Breaking Knife. And after a period of panic, the people and horses escorting the treasure finally stabilized their positions and launched a defense under Zeng Ruoyu's organization. In fact, among the centaurs, there are also many Dayan soldiers like Zhao Da, and several of them already have the identity of night guards. These people are well-trained, and they may not be the opponents of the fierce beasts when they come out alone, but under the siege, they can withstand the tide of beasts! Even some mortal followers wear improvised armor to participate. For a while, the beast tide was actually repulsed, but when the great demon of the Heavenly Mandate Realm participated in it, the situation was reversed again.

Zhuge Chen's feet stepped through the gap and hurried to the small hill. The most direct way to stop the beast tide is to kill the masked man with the flute. Otherwise, there will be an endless stream, unless there is a cultivator in the realm of the Ultimate Dao realm, there is no way to stop it.

The man who covered his face also noticed Zhuge Chen at this moment, he raised his head to look at the white clothes, and said softly: "A sword cultivator of the Heavenly Mandate Realm...... It's not that much of a hassle. I must get my hands on that prison sword, if I don't sell it for money, I'm afraid my realm can only stay in this bamboo basket for the rest of my life. ”

Listening to his words, it seems that he is also a mountain and wild cultivator. Otherwise, if you grow up in the sect, you don't have to worry about money.

Zhuge Chen came to him and said, "The beast tide under your feet, was it caused by you?"

The man who covered his face did not deny it, but said: "I thought it would be a group of people swarming, but I didn't expect you to be the only one." I have to say, you have a lot of guts. A Heavenly Mandate cultivator, even if he is a sword cultivator, how can he really not be afraid of death? According to my inference, you should be the imperial court worship of Dayan. It's okay to do things for them, but you have to do what you can. ”

Zhuge Chen retracted the gap into his sleeve, and then said: "You don't have to bother with this, it's better to pioneer and drive away the beast tide! Otherwise, I will have to kill you." ”

"Really?" the masked man laughed loudly, and he pointed his flute at Zhuge Chen and said, "Are you sure that you are talking to a bamboo basket with wonderful skills, and not going crazy? Such a young age is destiny, it can be seen that your talent is indeed very high, but how can a flower that is protected only for ornamentation be comparable to the wild grass that grows on the cliff? And even if the world changes greatly, the weeds can still survive, after all, the environment in which they grow can no longer be worse. ”

"What a wonderful analogy. Zhuge Chen held his rubber pillar sword, he guessed that the masked man's magic technique should be related to attracting the beast tide, and it was actually of little help to himself, and his killing power could be regarded as an ordinary bamboo basket to draw water. Zhuge Chen was not afraid because of this, and even had a plan in his heart to kill the other party to let the beast tide retreat on its own: "Since I can't talk about it, I have to take action myself." ”

Zhuge Chen took the first step, and the dragon under his feet rose with it, carrying the white clothes to the clouds.

The masked man put his palm on his forehead and looked up, and said, "Although I have the strength to speak wildly, if you want to kill me and drive away the beast tide, are you sure you are not dreaming?"

He stretched out his finger to carve a formation on the ground, and then his tongue was full of lotus flowers, and he opened his mouth to spit out a word: "Fixed!"

In the blink of an eye, those large arrays that had been pre-arranged by him manifested at this moment. Zhuge Chen's figure froze, and he was frozen in the air and couldn't move. And an immortal phantom appeared in the air and punched Bai Yi in the chest. This is not the end, there are countless dark green flames rising into the air, if it weren't for the sword qi to stop the flames, Zhuge Chen would have been incinerated. It turned out that the man who covered his face was a formation master, and since he was a mountain and wild cultivator, of course he knew how to save his life. He had laid a large array around the hill early, and as long as someone came to stop him, he would be stuck in it and unable to get out. If there is no one, then it will be fine, and when you take away the things escorted by the people and horses, you will return here to dismantle the big array, and it will not take much effort.

This array is called the Trapping Immortal Array, and it is surrounded by several trapped qi arrays, which are used to restrain people very easily. The man with his face covered looked at the white clothes on his head and shouted loudly: "I have no grievances with you, and I don't want to kill you, so you better leave quickly!"

How could Zhuge Chen listen to him? With a long roar, two majestic peaks appeared on his shoulders, and the two peaks of Mount Tai in Kunlun spiraled up, and the mighty sword qi that fell from them covered Zhuge Chen, temporarily relieving the pressure brought to him by the large array. Although it was only for a short moment, it was enough for Bai Yi. The Sanchen sword was also unsheathed, and the stars fell down and smashed directly into the eyes of the big array. With a roar, Zhuge Chen finally got out.

He stood in front of the masked man and said aloud, "I won't kill you either." ”
