Chapter Ninety-Five: More and More Suspicions
The night in the other world is a little less quiet and a little more chilly.
Even though the whole city was burning, the flames burned the red sky, covering the light of the stars and moon, but it was still so cold.
The night was already deep.
People who have lost their homes have long been slaughtered in despair. The carnival of the victors is also approaching the end.
At that moment, there seemed to be a sudden silence between heaven and earth.
On such a cold night, an army of 10,000 men quietly approached the castle. Looking through the light of the fire, there was a squad of more than 100 people in the front, a squadron of more than 2,000 people in the middle, and a brigade of more than 10,000 people in the back. The front, middle, and back are ten feet apart, neat and orderly, like a sharp arrow shot at the burning castle.
Before the arrow left the string, the power came first, controlling a radius of dozens of miles.
During the march, more than 100 sword rays suddenly volleyed into the air, falling like meteors and falling on the city wall.
A roar erupted, and dozens responded.
A bloody light appeared, and a life ended.
The tΓΊ shΔ on the city wall opens, attracting the attention of the alien warriors. The Terran army under the city walls, without shouting, quietly rushed into the castle and quickly killed the aliens, leaving no chickens and dogs. The last army, the regiment surrounded the castle. Those alien soldiers who had not yet fully recovered from the joy of victory were immediately beheaded in the face of an enemy who was also of the same race, either unable to react, or completely unopposed.
It was a sudden battle.
It's a patiently awaited attack.
This is an unfair victory of unequal strength.
However, only victory is the most tangible result. Who cares about the rest?
By dawn, the Terran army had cleared the battlefield. The horns in the castle were three feet away.
In the heart of the castle, there are no grand buildings, no luxurious halls, only a platform with a radius of 100 feet. A sinkhole was dug in the center, a hundred feet deep.
Ji Ning said: "Senior brother, this castle has been looted, and there is nothing of value. The few barbarian soldiers should be guarding the city. What do we do next?"
"The most valuable things are, of course, poached by people. But what will be the length of this place? It will be so deep!" Dugu Hexuan stared at the deep pit for more than two hours, and still didn't get an answer, and said, "Close the city gate and set up a secret whistle." It is forbidden for everyone to act at will, and the focus is on cultivation. β
"Senior Brother Ji, you, Qin, and Liu immediately went out of the city, tracked the traces of the barbarians, and found out the truth and truth. Dugu Hexuan stood up, took a deep breath, and continued: "The army will stay here for a while. But...... Not too long. β
At this moment, Gan Dan led people over, and his subordinates waved thirteen teenagers and young children in one line. The oldest is about nine years old, and the youngest is only about four years old. There are two bulging bags on the top of their heads, which are very symmetrical, and the hand shape has obvious abnormalities, more like "hoof". Half a step has already stepped into the ghost gate.
Gan Dan said: "Big brother, I found it from the secret cellar." Probably the only survivor in the city. β
"Save them!" Dugu Hexuan sent a spirit pill and ordered: "Brother Huang, they are under your command. β
Seeing Qiu Xi coming, he said, "Senior brother, we have found an ancient courtyard where there are many books. β
"Oh!" Dugu Hexuan laughed loudly and said, "Second brother, I want to go to that small courtyard, and the affairs of the city will be in charge of you for the time being." β
The team dispersed in an orderly manner, and Dugu Hexuan and Qiu Yu went to the small courtyard side by side.
"Second child, keep searching, and you can't let go of any corner. The matter of enhancing the combat effectiveness of the contingent is still a top priority, and there must be no slackening in the slightest. I'm running out of resources. Dugu Hexuan took out five jars, handed them to Qiu Xu, and said, "The water is long, it's better to fight." Distribute these five elixirs, first ensure that everyone who comes here has a share, and you share the rest. For best results, consume within three days. β
"Recently, I have made a breakthrough in my path, and my realm has been unstable, causing my body to feel very tired all the time. Just take advantage of this free time to practice and rest well. Dugu Hexuan smiled faintly and said, "The time is tentatively set for ten days! In these ten days, you have to keep an eye on them!"
"Yes, Senior Brother!" After Qiu Yu agreed, he hesitated for a moment and said, "Senior Brother, the current situation is uncertain. What should I do if something is urgent?"
"There won't be any rush. If there is, it will be ten days later. When the time comes, I will have my own measure. β
Dugu Hexuan calmly walked into the small courtyard and slowly closed the wooden door. The wooden door is very strong, completely blocking the inside and outside of the courtyard. Qiu Yu looked at the door, his breathing suddenly intensified, and the invisible pressure pressed him out of breath, and his face became more and more hideous. He didn't know where this pressure came from, he was in a trance, and the five jars in his hands almost fell to the ground.
Qiu Yu tried to calm down, and said in his heart: Altar, three days, ten days,...... , Big Brother...... Time is really too short to be possible.
As he left, he sighed to himself, "Yes! Time is so short that it seems that everything is impossible."
The ancient courtyard, with one main hall and two partial rooms, is still simple and simple.
Probably, the former owner was poor and thrifty.
The two side rooms are empty, cobwebbed, and have been abandoned for a long time. The main hall is more like a study house, with yellowed bamboo slips scattered on the old bookshelves, and thick dust covering the corners of the walls and the corners of the bookshelves. It seems to be so old that it is no longer traceable.
"Didn't there just be a big war?"
Dugu Hexuan looked around, took out the table pen and ink from the Ruyi bag, and placed it in the courtyard. Later, carefully walk into the main hall to see the location of the bamboo slips and think about what might happen when you pick them up. It took a lot of effort to finish the first volume on the spot, and then, with his extraordinary memory, he transcribed the contents into the silk scroll. Finally, seal the bamboo slips with "dust repellents" and put them into the Ruyi bag.
Suddenly, three days have passed, and Dugu Hexuan finally put away the last volume.
In three days, 23 volumes were transcribed in their entirety, 11 volumes were less mutilated, and 7 volumes were severely damaged.
Although about a quarter of the characters could be recognized, and the contents had been memorized, Dugu Hexuan was still a little uncertain, or unbelievable.
Turning around, looking at the empty study, it was dark and dark, fluttering and flickering, and the words in my mind gradually emerged, as if the master in the study house was muttering to himself.
"Cut chaos, punish gods and demons, heaven and earth are fixed. The Demon Emperor, the son of heaven, came to the world, ruled all races, enlightened and educated, and laid the foundation of eternity. β
"The queen of heaven gave birth to nine sons, all of whom are like queens, with human heads and snake bodies. β
"The nine sons are fighting, and the foundation is shaken. Now I want to set up eight sons, the queen of heaven loves the four sons alone, and the ministers strongly advise the nine princes. Yes, the competition intensified. β
"In the first year of Tianwu, the prince deceived Jinshang, colluded with the barbarian high priest, and recruited the ants of the hundred tribes. Potential. β
"When the ministers were demoted, they guarded the frontier, and the tribe was also removed from the list of the Heavenly Demon tribes. β
"It's urgent! The Demon Emperor oracle is everywhere to quell the chaos. The ministers were instructed to lead the tribe to quell the chaos. However, the barbarian high priest has a demonic skill, and the prince has the inheritance of the ancient demon god, killing with a sword, which is unstoppable. "At the time of crisis, the prince was ordered to send troops, carrying the artifact of the demon emperor, swallowing thousands of miles like a tiger, and defeating the prince. He fled with hatred. β
"Outside of the courtiers. Suddenly, the five barbarian tribes captured the Heavenly Palace and expelled the Chosen Ones from the treacherous mountains and rivers. At the right time, the prince came to find the minister, and the cause of the antecedents was painful, and the misfortune was all due to the prince. β
When the minister first heard the origin of Dingding, he was extremely frightened. Determined to form an alliance with the prince to eliminate this source of trouble. β
"The left eye is like dirt, and its color is jet black. The right eye is like jade, and its color is turquoise. β
β......γ The ants must be killed in order to clarify the universe. β
β...... Repentance......"
The text is choppy and the context is difficult to string. There seems to be a glimpse of some old news between the lines, but it is hardly the tip of the iceberg.
Dugu Hexuan said in his heart: When the master here recounts the past, he seems to hate the ant clan even more?
In the courtyard, the black sword stood quietly, intimidating the heavens and the earth. The incense burner in his palm looks very ordinary, but in Dugu Hexuan's understanding, this is a bloodthirsty incense burner, and its mystery is far from being comparable to the black sword.
When I took my attention away from the bamboo slips, the question suddenly appeared in my mind: "Who buried the sword?"
"I'm getting more and more suspicious!"
After the third day passed peacefully, Qiu Yu finally put his mind at ease, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth. He returned to his residence, cleaned up briefly, and prepared for tomorrow's cultivation homework. Suddenly, when I heard someone coming, my heart moved, and the stone that had fallen was refloated. After calming down a little, he walked out of the hut and saw that it was Ji Rong.
Ji Rong didn't wait for Qiu Yu to say, and spoke first: "Brother Qiu, something happened." Please go to Brother Dugu immediately. β
Qiu Xi's heart "chuckled", and he almost blurted out "It's still here", but he was calm and asked gently: "Brother Ji, what happened, you need to alarm Senior Brother?"
Ji Rong said: "Human life is at stake! You go and see, you will know!"
"Wow"
Gan Dan, Gu Jia and others rushed over, glaring at the enemy. After a while, Yin Si and others also came in a panic.
Gan Dan smiled and said, "Old Qiu, did you already expect today's events?"
Qiu Yu pretended to be calm and said, "Brother Gan, how can you say this?"
"Coincidentally, very coincidentally, very coincidentally, don't you think?" Gan Dan said with a smile, "How come those five elixirs are so coincidental, just one for each newcomer, and there is not even one extra one left?"
Tang Si saw that the atmosphere was a little weird, and hurriedly said: "The matter is urgent, everyone is fighting here, what's the point?" Second Senior Brother, hurry up and find Senior Brother, otherwise it's too late." β
"Fifth junior brother, with senior brother here, the sky can't fall. What's more, Senior Brother has said that he will be in retreat for ten days! It is extremely inconvenient to go to him now!" Qiu Yu said, "Tell me, what happened?"
Gu Jia roared angrily: "It's not enough to kill people......
Song Wu hurriedly stopped and said, "Brother Gu, before the matter is clear, you must not speak lightly. This matter is very important, we still met with Brother Dugu and was cut by him. β
Qiu Yu glanced at everyone coldly, and said categorically: "In less than ten days, you must not disturb Senior Brother." This matter is not negotiable. β
Gan Dan said: "Then you have to give us an account! We can't be in the city of graves and still know nothing!"
