The moon and stars are scarce, and the breeze is blowing.

This should have been a good weather to enjoy the moon and drink, but the rich smell of blood in the air neatly destroyed this leisure elegance.

Tang Zixi hurriedly walked on the deserted street, and the sense of unease in his heart became stronger and stronger.

According to the rules of the city, if you are still outside at the time of the fire, or if you do not have a special token, you will be arrested without exception, and some will be executed on the spot.

At this time, after the end of the day, there were seven or eight miserable cries.

She glanced up at the dark sky, hesitated for a while, and threw all the weapons she was holding on the side of the road. She had picked them all the way, and she was going to use them to ward off the enemy, but now it seems that they are of no use. I can judge with my toes that the forces that can act recklessly in the 'prestige' Xiao Ji Abyss are not something that she can compete with as a weak woman who is helpless.

The last scream was so close to her that she had to pray to the heavens to let the black-armored soldiers avoid the street.

But things often backfired, and when she heard the sound of uniform footsteps, she had to climb a big locust tree next to her with the intention of gambling.

As soon as she was halfway up, she felt a strong wind coming from overhead, and suddenly, she didn't have time to make any resistance, so she grabbed the branch next to her and swung it with her strength, and landed steadily at the other end of the tree.

However, the other party had no intention of stopping, and then another slash came, and the cold and shining blade was particularly obvious in the night.

Tang Zixi snorted coldly, and without saying a word, he directly poured a powerful internal force into several branches, and swung it vigorously at the humanoid black shadow. Although she can't do anything else, Neili is still quite confident.

But the man's reaction was not slow, and the moment before the willow branch reached him, he had already flown away, and disappeared among the branches and leaves with a flash of purple light. There are many locust trees here, and the branches are luxuriant, and it is really not easy to find them for a while.

Tang Zixi did not rush to chase, but hurriedly lowered his body, because of the commotion here, those black-armored soldiers had already run towards this side.

The speed of the black-armored soldier was extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, he was under the big tree.

"Your Excellency!" a black-armored soldier spotted a weapon in the grass.

Tang Zixi secretly said bad when she saw this, she only cared about throwing those away before, and forgot to cover them with something. Immediately frightened, he didn't dare to come out.

At the head was a burly bald general, with a bright ring hanging from each ear, a lion nose and a wide mouth, and an extremely fierce face, which did not look like a good type.

He glanced at the pile of tattered weapons, the corners of his mouth twitched fiercely, and said, "Go and call Honggu!"

"Yes!" a black-armored soldier turned and hurried away.

"A few of you stay, and the others continue to search!"

"Yes!"

Soon, only a few black-armored soldiers were left in the same place, including the bald general.

The bald general slowly walked a few steps forward, stood in front of a stone tablet that was only half left, and said, "Adjutant General!"

"Subordinates are here!" a soldier with a slightly darkened face hurriedly stepped forward.

The bald general stroked the mottled text on the stone tablet, and said casually: "What did Chi Lao say?

A soldier with a slightly dark face stepped forward and said, "Elder Chi said that the battle situation is unclear now, and it is not a good time to go out of the city. ”

The bald general frowned and said, "Could it be that you didn't bring my words?"

The subordinate said word for word. The black-faced soldier was obviously his henchman, and he paused and said, "But Chi Lao said that that one was sent by Jiuyou, so we have to avoid it more or less, otherwise when the Hades King will be investigated, we won't be able to explain." ”

The bald general snorted and said: "I don't know what Chi Lao is afraid of, the current Jiuyou is not as good as before, Lao Tzu can ...... casually"

The black-faced soldier suddenly coughed loudly.

The bald general glanced at him, and then said, "How can that hairy boy have Lao Tzu's experience, if you turn around and let in one or two demon spies, it won't be our disaster...... That's it, since we are not allowed to leave the city, and we can't hand over the safety of the city to outsiders, let's go, let's go to the city gate to guard. ”

"Your Excellency!" the black-faced soldier hurriedly stopped him.

The bald general said impatiently: "Don't be like a girl, just say that there is a fart and let it go!"

The black-faced soldier was helpless, handed over a black piece of iron, and said, "Elder Chi said, as long as we catch the woman in purple, it will be a great achievement." He has his own arrangements for the rest. ”

The bald general took the piece of iron, stuffed it into his arms without even looking at it, and snorted: "Chi Lao is really getting older and more confused, the left and right are just a girl, can you resist thousands of troops?"

"This ......" The black-faced soldier hesitated a little, glanced at the soldier not far away, leaned into the ear of the bald general and said in a low voice, "I heard from the people around Chi Lao that the woman in purple is the concubine of the demon king and is very favored by him. Seeing that the other party still looked disdainful, he finally couldn't help but say the point, "It is said that even the Nine Soul Flags were handed over to her for safekeeping." ”

"Really?" the bald general's eyes lit up, "Are you sure you heard it right?"

The black-faced soldier nodded affirmatively and said, "It's true, otherwise how could the always shrewd and wise Chi Lao send us to find an insignificant woman at such a time." ”

The bald general grinned, patted the black-faced soldier's shoulder heavily, and praised: "Okay! Good job! It seems that this time it is Lao Tzu's turn to make meritorious service, so let that guy from Jiuyou work blindly at the city gate." Speaking of this, he raised his voice and said, "It's all for Lao Tzu, who caught the woman in purple - a moon viewing flower!"

"Yes!" the black-armored soldier replied loudly, obviously extremely excited.

Unexpectedly, under this joyful atmosphere, a very light cold snort sounded: "I can't help myself!"

Hiding in the tree, Tang Zixi was taken aback, but he didn't expect that there were still people on this tree. At this time, it was too late to change one, and I couldn't help but secretly complain when I looked at the eyes like sharp knives shooting towards me, and I was miserable by that person.

The bald general's headphones were Qijia, and he captured the opponent's position at the same time as the cold snort sounded, and immediately rose into the sky and rushed straight to the big locust tree not far away.

Those black-armored soldiers also rushed straight up, apparently planning to catch turtles in an urn.

......

City gates.

The hairy boy in the bald general's collar was standing on the city wall, silently watching the crowd below.

Different from the fierceness of the bald general, this general of the Nine Shadows looks much more gentle, with a fair complexion, gentle eyebrows and eyes, if it weren't for the murderous aura of that armor, it is estimated that others would regard him as a weak scholar. Rao is like this, and the occasional unbearable meaning in his eyes still reveals his kind nature.

It was a long line that couldn't see the edge. The strange thing is that in such a long line, except for the slightly chaotic footsteps, no one spoke. They were all disgraced, and most of them had some colors hanging on them, and at a glance they knew that they had escaped from a certain battlefield. Everyone stood quietly in their positions, moving forward in a slow and orderly manner.

From time to time, sentries waving flags rushed into the city gates.

On both sides of the team, several men in black robes each held a white spherical object and walked back and forth, and next to each of them were followed by several black-armored soldiers.

The terrible screams frightened the people in the back who didn't even dare to come out, for fear of revealing a misleading look and inviting death.

Just a few days ago, the Nine Netherworld Mansion and the Netherworld Mansion suddenly suffered a large-scale attack at the same time, except for a few demon cultivators, most of the demons who participated in the attack were monsters from the Boundless Demon Sea, which can be described as heavy casualties. Especially in the Nine Netherworlds, except for the Nine Ring Hall where the Hades King is located, all the other buildings have been razed to the ground, and not even a single ghost has escaped. With more and more monsters pouring in, it was only a matter of time before the Nine Rings Hall was breached.

Even the core areas of the Nine Netherworld Mansion and the Netherworld Mansion have suffered, which shows what kind of state the people below are.

There are well-informed people who come straight to the small abyss as soon as the war breaks out, after all, in this space, apart from this place, the only thing that can still find a glimmer of life is the small abyss with strong defense. Those who reacted more slowly, when they saw that everyone else had fled, would naturally follow, and in just a few days, a large number of demons and ghosts had poured in from the small pole abyss, and the number was still skyrocketing.

As soon as there are many people, they will be messy, and when they are messy, they will be easy to mix with some other things, such as the monsters that transform into ghost cultivators and demon cultivators. As we all know, the monsters that can be transformed at will are naturally not low-level monsters, but mostly some special demons with special abilities or high-grade demon generals, demon lords, or even higher. These black-armored soldiers who had been stationed in the small abyss in advance received an order to kill these monsters who wanted to blend in on the spot.

It is inevitable that there will be mistakes in such a large workload, and there are too few magic weapons in the underworld that can identify the demons, and many of them are made temporarily, because there are often demon and ghost clans who are killed by mistake.

This general of the Nine Shadows has the urge to stop every time he sees this situation, but he knows the consequences of being mixed in by demon spies, so he has been forcibly patient.

As more and more ghosts and demons were killed by mistake, his face became more and more ugly. Finally, when a few soldiers pulled out an old woman, he made a move.

"General Qin!"

Seeing the man who suddenly appeared in front of him, the black-robed man hurriedly bent down and saluted, and the black-armored soldier who was about to make a move knew the identity of the person who came, and quickly put away his weapon and saluted.

General Qin Wei bowed his head slightly and said, "You have worked hard!"

"It's not hard!" The soldiers were a little flattered, they had long heard that this general from Jiuyou treated his subordinates very well, and at this time, he really lived up to his reputation.
