And so it was.

Luo Qingfeng and Qiu Zhi both felt a little relieved in their hearts, and since Xinzhai intervened, things were more than half over.

This is their trust in Shinsai.

Qiu Zhi stretched out his hand and patted Qingshan's shoulder, and said, "It is worthy of being the seventeenth of the Martial Academy, there is something." ”

Aoyama didn't speak, his eyes still lingering on the occasional refugees around him, not knowing what he was thinking.

Luo Qingfeng sighed again, which made Ying Tianchang feel that he was a little like Chen Lin'an. Luo Qingfeng said: "When will the follow-up people of the academy come, it will be difficult for you alone to deal with these things in the northwest. ”

The sun in the sky is a little dazzling at the moment.

Ying Tianchang shook his head and said, "I don't know." "It seems that the situation in the northwest is not so simple as Xu Lu said, in the past four days, Ying Tianchang has not asked about the situation in the northwest of Qinghuang and Qingshan, but at most he can only understand the customs of the northwest, after all, during this period of demon trouble in the northwest, Qinghuang and Qingshan are both in the academy. So what Ying Tianchang knows is that compared to the hinterland of the Central Plains, the northwest is indeed a lot chaotic, not only reflected in the horse bandits that can be seen everywhere, the war on the border, and the unscrupulous monsters.

In the Northwest, the fact that demons harm people and eat people is not just a legend used by adults to scare children like the Central Plains, but something that can happen to everyone at any time.

Therefore, the bull demon Qinghuang who came from the northwest to the south of the Yangtze River was extremely forbearant in the academy and did not have the slightest temper. He'd seen too many people who had died at the hands of demons.

He didn't want to see it again, let alone brew this tragedy with his own hands.

"Then you ......"

Before Luo Qingfeng finished speaking, Ying Tianchang said: "Since Senior Brother Xu wants us to come to the northwest to deal with this matter, we will go, and Senior Brother Luo will tell us about the situation in the northwest in recent months." The boy turned his gaze to the refugee area to the side, and saw a boy holding a steamed bun that was not very white, and he was overjoyed. Ying Tianchang seemed to see himself who had fled at the beginning.

The corners of Ying Tianchang's mouth curved out of an arc, and he took a sip of the tea that Luo Qingfeng bought.

Some bitter, but the bitterness is very light.

There is a fresh fragrance after the tea is entered.

Luo Qingfeng hesitated for a moment, and then told everything he knew about the northwest land, only omitting some actions from the imperial court. For Xinzhai's students, especially one of them, who is also the descendant of Zhang Yuanchun's old master, Luo Qingfeng felt that he could let down some necessary guards.

It's just that there are some things related to the imperial court, and Luo Qingfeng, as an official of the imperial court, can only keep his mouth shut.

Ying Tianchang quietly used magic to isolate the sound of their table, and even if he stood behind them, he couldn't hear what they were talking about.

As a result, the two brothers Ying Tianchang and Qinghuang Qingshan, who had just arrived in Weiming City, began to gradually know the current situation of the demon plague in the northwest.

After a long time, Ying Tianchang picked up the teacup again and took a sip of the tea that had been cooled.

He smacked his mouth, but he didn't know what it tasted like.

Baozi returned from playing in the distance, and Ying Tianchang leaned over to pick him up.

In Luo Qingfeng's account, the first hint of the unrest in the northwest appeared half a year ago, when a small village outside the Tang border in the northwest was slaughtered. When the patrol army sent by the Honggu State to which the village belonged came to the village, it was already a ruin, and what I saw in front of me was even more infiltrating, and the corpses of the people with wide open abdomen were piled up in one place, becoming a large mountain of corpses, and all of their hearts, livers, spleens, lungs, kidneys and intestines were entangled, and there was a single section scattered everywhere.

In addition to these, there is a black flag standing here, and the black flag has a circle drawn by blood.

The qi practitioners accompanying the army found a slight trace of demonic energy on this black flag.

Everyone thought that this was just an ordinary monster predation incident, which made the generals of the Red Valley Kingdom at that time breathe a sigh of relief, if the Tang Dynasty led the invasion as the upper kingdom of the Celestial Empire, the fall of the Red Valley Kingdom would be as if it was in front of his eyes. As a result, the border army of the Red Valley Country only called a part of the scouts to find the monster who committed the crime, and they didn't pay much attention to this matter.

Enough of this kind of thing has happened in places like this.

But no one expected that in half a decade, more and more villages and towns suffered the same massacre, and there were exactly the same black flags standing, and even several border army garrisons also encountered accidents, which finally made Honggu realize the seriousness of the problem, and it was obvious that the black flags standing all over the eastern border showed that this was not an accidental event or the operation of one or two demons.

When the elite border army of the Red Valley Kingdom thoroughly searched the eastern border, the Tiger Leap City bordering the Tang Dynasty in the eastern border of the Red Valley Country was occupied by demons, and a black flag blood circle was erected at the head of the city.

From the attack on Tiger Leap City to the complete invasion, it took a day's work.

Half of the people in the city were executed on the spot, and the means were the same as the previous towns and villages, and they were thrown outside the city, and together with the fallen soldiers of Tiger Leaping City, they built a Jingguan, and the remaining half of the people were raised as rations, like people raising pigs and sheep.

When the army of Honggu Kingdom pressed the border and confronted the little demon at the head of the city, a wild boar spirit in the shape of a beast appeared at the head of the city, waving a thick iron rod with a waist, ordering a thousand demons, calling himself the "Tooth King".

The two armies of the shemales did not come into contact, and the two grandmasters and vanguard generals who had been shocking the eastern rivers and lakes for nearly ten years by the Red Valley Kingdom went out at the same time, wanting to capture the thief and capture the king first. But the result was tragic, the three of them joined forces, one of the two Jianghu Grandmasters was smashed into pulp by the iron rod in the hand of the Tooth King, and the other was decapitated. And the vanguard general was even more miserable, not the enemy of the Tooth King's blow, and the Tooth King did not bother to kill him, pressed him to the ground, and ate it raw in front of the 10,000 border troops of the Red Valley Country.

Starting with the legs, then to the arms, and before the last mouth, the general was still screaming.

The real blood is dripping, and it is even more terrifying than the Jingguan in front of it.

It's just that later, when a little demon wanted to steal and eat the corpses of the two Jianghu masters who couldn't die anymore, he was also stoned to death by the wild boar spirit who claimed to be the king of teeth.

The demons shouted, and the crowd was furious.

The border army of the Red Valley Country could only retreat.

Later, the national teacher of the Red Valley Kingdom led a group of capable qi warriors and cultivators to help, but to no avail, they could not capture Tiger Leap City, and the two sides confronted each other for a long time. The Red Valley Kingdom had no choice but to ask for help from the Tang Dynasty of the Celestial Empire, which promised its protection.

However, the actions of the Tooth King and his subordinates were like an open fire in the dark night, attracting countless monsters around them, like moths to a fire, and this fire seemed to burn in the autumn grassland, faintly burning the prairie with the potential to burn the prairie faintly.

Although after the Qi practitioners and strong warriors sent by the Tang Dynasty rushed to the Red Valley Kingdom, the Tooth King and his men were defeated and retreated one after another, and were killed one by one, only the whereabouts of the Tooth King are unknown. In the northwest, where the folk customs and demons in the Tang Dynasty are also fierce, countless big demons stood up, no longer confined to their own mountains, robbed cities and plundered villages, and erected black flags with blood circles.

The Northwest Demon Clan gradually gathered together, all under the hands of the Seven Demon Kings.

Even among the seven demon kings in the northwest, six have reached the oath of alliance.

Compared with the wild boar essence of the self-proclaimed "Tooth King" of the Red Valley Kingdom, these seven demon kings are more worthy of the name, and it is difficult for the defenders of the Tang Dynasty in the northwest and the elite of the Northwest Army to surrender.

Fortunately, the Seven Demon Kings did not act as extremely ferocious as the Tooth King, but they also displaced hundreds of people, and the officers and soldiers everywhere had a headache.

Baozi stuck out his tongue and licked Ying Tianchang's cheek, pulling his thoughts back.

Ying Tianchang rubbed the head of the bun, took another sip of the tea that he already felt tasteless, and asked, "Does this kind of thing happen a lot in the world?"

"There are only two places where monsters have a blatant gathering foothold in the world and have cities, the Tang Dynasty is further west of the West Realm, the Ten Thousand Demon City in the Western Regions and the south of the South Border, and the Jiaolong Cave in the South China Sea. The former was built by ten thousand demons, and only the demon clan inhabited it. Ten Thousand Demon City did not target ordinary people more, but under the slogan of overthrowing the heavenly court and returning to the world, the heavens sent heavenly soldiers and heavenly generals to attack the lower realm several times, but they all returned in vain. The latter heard that it is a genus of dragons, not monsters or the like, but no one knows the specific situation. Aoyama said sullenly.

Luo Qingfeng said: "However, the things in the northwest are even more incredible than the Ten Thousand Demon City in the Western Regions and the Jiaolong Cave in the South China Sea. Monsters often live in the mountains and wilderness, because that is where they have attained the essence of the Tao, and it is the most suitable place for them to practice, and the surrounding mountains and rivers are in line with their nature to the extreme, unless there is a big chance, it is difficult to find the same suitable or better place, and it is also in line with the free and casual nature of the demon race. And our city is the chicken rib to them. Therefore, although the monsters disturb the people, disturb the people, and even harm and eat people, they have never invaded the city. For the first time ever. ”

"That's why the imperial court is timid?" Ying Tianchang didn't leave a trace of affection in his mouth.

Luo Qingfeng could only smile bitterly, while Qiu Zhi said: "The imperial court is not inactive, sending qi practitioners and martial artists, dispatching troops, defending the city and recovering the land, how to do it is to do it step by step." It's just that the Seven Demon Kings are indeed not to be underestimated. ”

Ying Tianchang just smiled and took another sip of tea.

Luo Qingfeng sighed and said, "Compared to the national strength of the Tang Dynasty, Senior Brother Ying is right. However, it is not appropriate to say that they are timid, the group of people above should have seen the back of this matter, so as to have a further plan. ”

"Senior Brother Luo has some news?" asked Ying Tianchang.

Luo Qingfeng looked at his nose and nose and his heart.

Ying Tianchang knew in his heart, so he stopped talking about it.

Ying Tianchang and his entourage did not stay in Weiming City for a long time, and after asking Luo Qingfeng about the situation of the Seven Demon Kings and their current location, they left the city.

Luo Qingfeng and Qiu Zhi did not stay as guests.

Luo Qingfeng gave Ying Tianchang and his entourage three good horses, as well as clean water and dry food.

Qinghuang and Qingshan did not accept horses, but only rode horses in response to the sky.

Before leaving, Qinghuang was still staring at the refugees who could be seen everywhere along the way. Ying Tianchang wanted to look at his eyes, but was blocked by the hat.

Out of the city, the ground is the loess and yellow sand that Ying Tianchang has never seen, Ying Tianchang rode on a horse, and sighed at the wonder of the world's landscapes.

Green and green mountains can be hiked at any time, but it is more relaxed. Probably because it's my hometown.

I walked for a few miles, and I didn't say anything all the way.

When the light of the dusk reflected some purple and red in the yellow earth, Ying Tianchang shouted Qinghuang, and Qinghuang raised his head.

Ying Tianchang's expression was indifferent, and he said, "Say, which of the seven demon kings has something to do with you?"

Qinghuang looked stunned.

Ying Tianchang said, "Is it the only demon king who has not formed an alliance?"
