Chapter Forty-Eight: The City Breaks
The people shouted that they wanted to ask the old heavenly master for their crimes, but no one dared to go up, and now the anger of the people is unsettled, if the ghost clan attacks at this time, Lanyang City must be lost, who is inciting the people.
"Heavenly Master, how is this good?" Li Zhongzhi stepped forward and asked, no matter how the people barked, Li Zhongzhi still respected the old Heavenly Master very much, and it was a dilemma to take it or not at the moment.
"People travel a hundred miles, ghosts travel a thousand miles. The ghost army is coming, tie me up, and it is imperative to calm down the anger and defend the city."
The words of the old Heavenly Master made Li Zhongzhi frightened, and he hurriedly knelt down and said: "Heavenly Master, by all means, if you are really tied up, wouldn't you fall for the enemy's tricks?"
"How many exorcists will come back from taking the people out of the city this time?"
"Less than one floor"
"Then what are you hesitating about? Tie me up, and the responsibility of defending the city will be entrusted to you. ”
As he spoke, the Celestial Master grabbed the rope that tied the flag in his hand, tied himself to it, and said to someone, "So you are satisfied...... All the exorcists stationed in Lanyang City obey the order, and the defense of Lanyang City is fully under Li Zhongzhi's responsibility."
The people were quiet and the exorcist was in tears, and they had been worried about the mouth of hell for many years, and it was a matter of time before the city was broken, but the people were like this, which was really distressing, and the old master stepped down, and the people dispersed.
Li Zhongzhi wanted to find out the person who wrote the letter, but there was no way to find out, if he went to check everyone's notes, it would take a lot of time, and it was also a suspicion of the soldiers, defending the city was a top priority, the demon who sneaked into the city to assassinate Wang Xufeng that day was just a warning, the real storm was still to come, but how many people understood the worries of the Heavenly Master.
In the prison cell, the Heavenly Master sat like a mountain, closed his eyes and rested his mind.
Wang Xufeng, who was seriously injured, came to visit and asked, "Heavenly Master, you have been conscientiously guarding the city for decades, but you can't withstand an unknown letter, you can just leave, why did you voluntarily go to this prison?"
"Life is only a few decades, how many people can be sober for a lifetime, confused for half a life, today I know what I hold on to in my heart - wisdom!"
"Wisdom?"
"Since birth, there is only God in our world, and everything we encounter is to ask God, but God has come a few times, and the human race has been trapped in an infinite loop of cages, and all I see is sluggishness and numbness, if I give up, who else is willing to be a sacrifice. ”
The Heavenly Master knew very well that if he waved his sleeves away in the anger of the people, all that would be left in Lanyang City would be those people, no one to protect them, they were stupid, but their thoughts and thinking were limited by the gods, and only those who had reached a certain level of cultivation could regain a trace of wisdom.
"What do you need me to do?" Wang Xufeng asked, he understood the simple truth that the Heavenly Master said, but he didn't know what the Heavenly Master was hiding behind it.
"Child, you still leave Lanyang City, the exorcist's oath is too heavy, give up your identity and you will see a different world, don't let you be trapped in a cage that can't jump out of the end for the rest of your life"
......
Wang Xufeng didn't speak, it was impossible for him to give up his identity as an exorcist, the old heavenly master looked at him, still waiting for his answer, Wang Xufeng said: "After defending Lanyang City, I will go to see the difference in the world." Then he turned and walked away.
The Celestial Master closed his eyes and did not make any expressions.
The wolf elephant heard that the old heavenly master was caught in the prison of the heavenly master, and immediately sent troops to attack Lanyang City, thousands of troops and horses were like rainbows, and all the exorcists of Lanyang City were guarding the city tower and waiting, and some of them shuttled outside the city wall, constantly strengthening the power of the Wanfu Wall.
The black python blood suddenly floated in the sky, Li Zhongzhi felt bad, but the amount of black python blood could not be stopped, and the flow of black python blood on the wall of ten thousand fu changed the direction of many formations, as well as the destruction of the arranged magic array, and the ghost army easily penetrated the ten thousand fu wall.
The soul spawning bell rang on the city tower, and Du Jiang was ringing the bell, slowing down the attack of the ghost army, and the wolf ape's three thousand demon army was ready, just waiting for the teleportation array in the city to open.
Zhu Xiu wants to contain the exorcist on the city tower now, and then infiltrate the city by the demon army, and take the city together, no matter how strong that kid is, he can't change the situation.
The ghost army attacked the city wall and fought with the exorcists, and the people in the city panicked instantly, kneeling on the ground and praying for the blessing of the gods, and then twelve black holes appeared in the city, and the demon soldiers jumped out one after another, killing people when they saw them.
There was a mourning inside and outside the city, Long Lai ran to the prison, hurriedly reported the battle situation to the old heavenly master, and asked him to go to preside over the overall situation, the old heavenly master listened to the screams outside, naturally could not sit idly by, untied the rope, just out of the prison door, Long Lai stabbed the old heavenly master from behind.
The Old Heavenly Master instantly understood that the person who aroused the anger of the crowd was Long Lai, and asked, "Why are you doing this?"
"The other seven Heavenly Masters have all promised to let the Heavenly Master Order appear in the world, but you don't allow it, only by killing you and removing your Dharma seal, can the Heavenly Master Order have a chance to appear in the world, if you want to blame it, you can only be blamed for being too old-fashioned, and it is imperative to unify the human race of the Founding Sect. ”
The Heavenly Master fell to the ground, Long Lai left in a hurry, and it was a sword that assassinated the Old Heavenly Master, not his sword, and went out with the sword.
In the dark part of the cell, there was an old man with a white beard sitting there in grief, and the old man was the old Heavenly Master Tian Zhong, who said to himself: "I want to see what you will see when you enter the Tianzi level, why don't the human race allow Tianzi-level exorcists to exist, where do you go first?"
The old Celestial Master got up, and was transformed by the lotus root of the substitute who was plotted by the dragon, and lifted his Dharma seal on the Celestial Master's order, and then dissipated, and disappeared.
Du Jiang saw that Lanyang City couldn't hold it, and wanted to take Wang Xufeng away, how could he have to live and die with Lanyang City, Du Jiang knew that persuasion was ineffective, and when he fought side by side, he took advantage of his unpreparedness to stun him and fled the battlefield with him.
Xiang Wei, Huang Mei, Jia Dehao and others wanted to defend Lanyang City, Li Zhongzhi ordered them to flee, no one agreed, they were seriously injured in the fierce battle, and said loudly to all the exorcists: "Keep a useful body to repay the great kindness of heaven and earth, it is a pity to be buried here, and you will avenge us in the future!"
Some people listened to it and fled the battlefield, and some people would rather die than obey.
After three days of hard fighting, Li Zhongzhi finally fell: "Heavenly Master, Lanyang City is broken, I, Li Zhongzhi, will stay until the last moment!"
The wolf elephant captured Lanyang City and cleaned Lanyang City, and still saw people in a pool of blood still praying for the gods to come, and some people who fell and were angry were still praying for the salvation of the gods.
Until the last breath was broken, they were still praying to the gods, and the wolf elephant mocked: "The only one in Lanyang City has been captured by you, so come and pray to me!"
The demon soldiers suck blood, the ghost soldiers suck the souls, and the corpses are all over the field Lanyang City is very clean after three days, there is no living mouth, there are no corpses in the city, there is no bloodstains, just a dead city.
Zhu Xiu searched for the whole city, but there was no kid who was on the battlefield that day, could it be that he had already left Lanyang City? Then he went to the prison to look for the old heavenly master, but he couldn't help but feel a pity.
The ghost soldiers and demon soldiers who sucked the blood of human souls and people became stronger than before, and the wolf elephant reported the battle situation of the demon and won a big reward, and the demon and Sanlu joined forces to attack Jinyang City, which was a piece of fertile land.
