Chapter 860: The Captain and the Demon Immortal
Wherever Rong Jun's soldiers are heading, almost no one can resist them. Most of the former territories of Liguo, Yeguo, and Gyeongguo have been conquered. Further west, the flames of war burned all the way to Tochar. But in today's Rongguo territory, there is a "country within a country". This country was the kingdom of Wu in the past, and it is also the kingdom of Wu now.
But before that, it was actually called "Wu Country". It's because there is a huge plane tree on the cliff in the middle of the country.
And the country has not been destroyed so far, and it is also because of this giant tree. The huge plane trees were a vast field within a radius of thousands of miles, shrouded in mist. Once the Rong army came to attack, the Wu royal family led the army to retreat into this dense forest. If the Rong army pursues it, it will lose its way in the fog, and the team of nearly 10,000 people will have to go around for more than a month before they can get out. If they didn't chase it, the Wu army would rush out of the forest to attack and harass, and it would be impossible to prevent it.
This dense forest is vast and abundant, making it a good place to stick to it. In this way, although the country of Wu is smaller, it is still standing.
When Han Zhuo, the guerrilla captain of the Rong army, and Yan Shiba, the mage of the army, marched hard in the forest for three days and finally arrived at the foot of the Tiansha Cliff, they finally saw the huge sycamore sacred tree for the first time.
I thought it was a towering tree, but now I realize that it looks more like a mountain. The Heavenly Cliff was originally a high mountain rising from the ground in the middle of a dense forest, and at the top of this high mountain, the body of a huge plane tree was almost as thick as this mountain. If you want to see this tree, you have to tilt your neck and look up to the sky, so that you can see that the giant tree is like a pillar that supports the heavens, straight up. When they reached the very high altitude, they gathered clouds and mist, and they could no longer see what it looked like above.
"How could it be...... It's so big!?" Captain Han Zhuo's eyes widened, wiping the hot sweat off his face, "I can't see this thing when I'm three miles away!"
"Blindfolding. Yan Eighteen glanced at the lantern he was holding in his hand - the two of them relied on this treasure to break through the fog in the forest and come to the bottom of the Tiansha Cliff on the evening of the third day of entering the forest. But now the candle flame in the lantern will also be extinguished, which means that the spiritual power infused into it is about to be "burned".
He stopped: "I can't go again tonight." As soon as the guiding light goes out, you may go around if you walk again. It wasn't early, so we rested for the night. ”
Han Zhuo frowned: "Daoist Xu said that the Dragon King left four days ago, but we haven't found out the letter today." Xu Daochang told us to find the residence of the great demon Baiyunxin within five days - if we rest for the night tonight, we may not be able to talk to Xu Daochang...... It will delay the dragon king's affairs even more—"
Yan Shibai laughed: "I said man, what kind of characters are you and me? Even Xu Daochang, Xu Daochang's master, and Xu Daochang's master, may not have seen our dragon king with his own eyes - just do your best to do things when you tell them, why risk your life. ”
"Besides, well, with our friendship, I will accompany you with my life—there is no way. The lantern in my hand is a spiritual object, and it already has a spirit. In other words, it is to become a refinement. Her aura is exhausted, and no matter how much I destroy, I can't use my supernatural powers. We really died after a night of wandering, and it was the matter of delaying the Dragon King and Xu Daochang. Do you think I'm right?"
Han Zhuo put the long knife with the sheath on the ground, and raised his hand to slap the two flower-footed mosquitoes on their faces. He raised his eyes to look at the huge plane tree that seemed to be able to be pressed over at any time, and the sunset on the horizon that gradually turned fiery red, and then sighed: "You're right. I'm in a hurry. Let's take a night's rest. ”
"That's right. Yan Eighteen snorted happily twice and threw down the bags on his back. He pulled out his waist knife and cut off all the crazy weeds around him and spread them on the ground. He sprinkled the powder of snakes and insects on the outer edge, and only then did he find a small ding in his sleeve.
As soon as the palm force was broken, Xiao Ding buzzed and grew larger and landed in the middle of the straw mat. It was filled with nothing else, but a fire. The fire burned brightly, and the forest became darker. After a while, the two of them were swallowed up by darkness, and only the grass mat still had a dim and warm light.
Han Zhuo sat down by the firelight, and looked at Yan Eighteen humming comfortably while making food - Yan Eighteen was burly, and this time he entered the forest and carried a big package on his back. There was nothing else in this package, but all food. Now he took out four oily roast chickens, threaded them on branches, and roasted them beside the fire, and found some dried meat, pickles and other things and put them away.
People who don't know the inside story read it and thought that the two were traveling together.
Han Zhuo has long been accustomed to his style. also knew that the habits of his "demon fairy" were different from those of people like himself, so he didn't say anything. When Yan Eighteen was done, he turned his face to look at the giant tree through the gap in the dense forest, and said, "Actually, I have seen the Dragon King." ”
Yan Eighteen laughed: "When?"
"Last year when I was in the Rolling Mountains. Han Zhuo picked up a grass stalk and put it in his mouth, "You know I'm a general." I used to be a native of Gyeongguk. Last winter, a group of us escorted the red clay through the Manjuan Mountain, met monsters, and ended up with the Dragon King. Later, when we came to the coalition camp, we saw the Dragon King fighting with a woman named Jin Guangzi from Xuanmen, and we all ran away - you should know this. ”
Yan Shibai looked at him in surprise: "I know about this, but-you were in Manjuan Mountain last year? Aren't you still a big soldier last year? How did you become a partial general? You were a partial general before you demoted the Rong army, right?"
Han Zhuo waved his hand: "There are many dead, but my life is great." Our team is dead, and I am the only one left, so I gathered some remnants of the soldiers, and I became a team. Later, the brigade commander died, and I was the only one left. I gathered some more remnants of the army, and made a brigade commander. Later, the commander knew about me and said that I was a lucky general, so he made me the leader of his own soldiers. As a result, during the battle of Wangshantan, the commander died again. No one dared to ask me, so they sent me to be a partial general who transported grain. ”
Yan Eighteen slapped his thigh: "Damn." I kind of know how our General Liu died a few days ago. ”
Han Zhuo hurriedly waved his hand: "It's none of my business." Don't talk nonsense when you go back. ”
Yan Eighteen laughed. Pick a roast chicken from a branch, and without tearing it, chew it up.
Han Zhuo also tore a chicken leg and ate it slowly. Halfway through eating, he squinted his eyes and sighed: "Alas...... When we went to Tongtianze to transport red clay, we were happy at first. I feel that Chengping has been doing something new for so many years. How could you have thought that the world would be in chaos when you hit that day...... Now I only hope that whether it is a country or another country, the world will be pacified soon. The taste of troubled times is not good, and I can't say that my life will be lost one day. ”
"If I had the power of a dragon king...... Alas, I would have been—"
Yan Shibai hurriedly said: "Shhh Don't say this - the dragon king is said to be too high, a fairy-like existence. You said bad things about him, beware that he listened to it thousands of miles away, and turned back to you to find bad luck!"
Han Zhuo pouted and smiled: "I'll just say you haven't seen the Dragon King - the night I saw him was like now, we sat around the fire, it was night." When the dragon king appeared......"
When he said this, he suddenly stopped, and his eyes widened.
Seeing his expression, Yan Shibai immediately threw away the roast chicken, raised his hand and threw out a small flying sword behind him. Jumped up and turned at the same time, shouting, "Who-"
But he was stunned and speechless.
Behind him stood a man under a huge tree. With two fingers, he pinched the flying sword he threw out. Seeing the appearance of the two of them, he smiled slightly, and threw the flying sword back. At that moment, another man also emerged from the forest behind him.
The appearance of the man in white who caught the flying sword was known to Han Zhuo and Yan Shiba. And the middle-aged man behind him looked like him.
This is......
"Dragon King ......," Han Zhuo said sleepwalking, "you ......"
Li Yunxin walked over with a smile and looked at Han Zhuo: "Hmm." I did have you when I was rolling the mountain, and I have an impression. ”
He walked to the fire and sat down, and looked Yan Eighteen up and down again: "You can refine flying swords - you practice Xuanmen spells?"
It wasn't until another man also walked up to their Dragon King's side and sat down that Han Zhuo and Yan Eighteen jumped up again, took two steps back, and bowed down in fear: "Little Demon Protector/Divine Dragon Sect disciple Han Zhuo/Yan Eighteen, I have seen the president/Divine Dragon Sect Master!"
Li Yunxin laughed when he heard this, turned his face and said to Li Chunfeng seriously: "Look, I am also a slash youth now. ”
Li Chunfeng also laughed: "What is the allusion to your world?"
Li Yunxin only smiled and did not explain to him. He turned his face to the two and said, "You two have worked hard. After resting for the night, let's go back. ”
The two were stunned. After glancing at each other, Han Zhuo said, "Yes...... Dragon...... Dragon King, the two of us are here to explore the way, and now ......"
"Thanks to the two of you to find your way. Li Yunxin said gently, "Otherwise, we wouldn't have found this place so quickly." You have made meritorious deeds, go back. ”
looked at the lantern that Yan Eighteen left on the ground again: "Your little lantern is a treasure." Take good care of it, and there may be a good fate in the future. ”
The demon fairy was speechless at this time, but mortals were calmer than him. He looked at Li Yunxin: "Dragon King, you said good fate, and your subordinates feel that meeting the Dragon King is also a good fate." Although I don't have any supernatural powers, I can serve by the side of the Dragon King, and I can run errands for the Dragon King......"
At this time, Li Chunfeng smiled. Raise your hand and nod at the captain: "Are you thinking, your dragon king has great powers, and he is a figure like an immortal." Therefore, by his side, if he gets his blue eyes, he will be out of the flesh and mortal womb from now on?Or take a step back, even if there is no such good thing, if he gets something that he gives him casually, he can also pass on the family for all generations and achieve immortal fate?"
Han Zhuo was stunned for a moment, and then said, "My subordinates don't dare to hide it." In addition to wanting to do something for the Dragon King, he does have such a mind. ”
Li Chunfeng stroked his beard and looked at Li Yunxin: "This is an honest person." What do you think?"
Li Yun thought for a moment and sighed lowly: "Do you two know how dangerous it is for me to do something? Do you know that at this time—right in this forest—there are no less than three Xuan Realm Demon Kings and more than a dozen True Realm Demon Kings eyeing you...... Ready to make a move?"
