Chapter 407: The Beast Demon's Roar
There is a fundamental difference between the Taoist priest who wants to do great things and the casual cultivator who survives in the cracks, and this is clearly revealed from the beginning.
Shen Ji is a Taoist priest like Feng Dongchen, hoping to erase the disgraceful experience with merit, he has walked in the territory of the demon clan for many years, knows every mountain peak and valley, and is familiar with every clear card and secret whistle of the demon clan, but so far he does not understand the language of the demon clan, and he avoids their smell.
Ouyang Li has lived in the cave for several years, and the casual cultivators communicate with each other, his understanding of demons has not decreased but increased, and in the few days of reunion with his master Hong Futian, he has gained more knowledge, he has been able to use four or five demon dialects proficiently since he was a child, and can even communicate directly with beasts and demons, from walking posture to eating habits.
"Demon soldiers are usually in groups of five, our number is just right, generally speaking, if there is a beast demon in the team, it will be more trusted, so I pretend to be a beast demon, and you pretend to be a half-demon. ”
"In other words, you have to be the leader?" Xin Youtao asked immediately.
"Uh......" Ouyang Li glanced at Mu Xingqiu quickly, "We will definitely meet other demon clans along the way, and I will have to answer ......"
"I don't have an opinion, just ask. Xin Youtao said with a smile, and then added, "You won't take the opportunity to give us to Qi Wushang as a gift, will you?"
"No, absolutely not, I'm not ungrateful, and besides, my master is still in the imperial capital. Ouyang Yan waved his hands together, and his face turned even redder.
Xin Youtao smiled and patted Ouyang Lance on the shoulder twice, saying that he was just joking and made a good impression on the "leader" first.
Ouyang Li put his mind at ease, first changed his appearance, the method of casual cultivation is completely different from the appearance of mortals, many spells are used, and they are also different from ordinary illusions, and every organ added to the body has a physical object. In this way, even if the gaze can penetrate the illusion, it will not be able to see the flaws.
Gradually, two small horns grew on Ouyang Li's head, his face was full of hair, the skin on his body was like a road covered with gravel, there were fewer clothes, and there were more iron, bones, horns, and feathers for decoration.
A pure beast demon appeared in front of several people, and the heavy smell of blood emanating from its body even overshadowed the original fishy atmosphere in the cave.
The more Feng Dongchen looked at it, the more uneasy he became, and made one last effort. Xiang Shen Ji asked, "Didn't you arrange a few secret retreats here, the kind that leads directly to Pang Mountain in Broken Flow City, I don't mind using it?"
Shen Ji shook his head, "Originally, there were a few passages that were relatively safe, but after a large number of demon soldiers poured into this place, all the passages were blocked, and my own original plan was to enter the land of demons in the north, and then detour east to Wandi Mountain. ”
This time it was Feng Dongchen who shook his head, "I went to the north just now to make an observation, and there are also demon clouds gathering there. Qi Wushang has made up his mind and forced us to go west. ”
The two Taoist priests were discussing whether there was a better escape route on one side, and Ouyang Li on the other side began to dress up Mu Xingqiu and Xin Youtao as half-demons. Half-demons are not much different from humans, only showing slight differences in a few places, such as long ears, turned fangs, sharp nails, etc. Coupled with the demon pill and demon qi, two pure half-demons appeared, and they didn't even have to change their appearance much.
Mu Xingqiu is more famous among the demon clan, so he has a thick beard. This beard is not stained, but grows into the skin through guò spells, and if you pull it hard, it can make people cry in pain.
Feng Dongchen and Shen Ji did not discuss a more suitable route. I had to accept the dress of casual repair. When Ouyang Lance smashed seven poisonous insects and prepared to smear them on the back of the Taoist priest's head, chest, chest, abdomen, and abdomen, Feng Dongchen showed an expression of extreme disgust, not even like a long-time cultivator, "I swear, I will never casually break into the territory of the demon clan in the future, how good is it for all the Daoists to come in in a unified block......?" I'll wipe it myself, so I don't have to do it with you. ”
Dao robes can not be worn, hairpins and other things must be properly put away, Ouyang Lance has prepared a large number of leather armor, ornaments and weapons commonly used by the demon clan, enough for five people.
After a qiē was ready, Feng Dongchen sighed, "From now on until the resumption of the Dao suit, I will be dumb." ”
Shen Ji asked, "Which route are you going to take?"
"I plan to go to Baizhang City first, and from there I will go to Old Ancestor Peak. "Mu Xing has already made a detailed plan, but there are two Starfall Daoists before, and there is no chance to implement it.
"Baizhang City is now the demon capital, and Qi Wusupreme personally sits in the array. Shen Ji's face showed a slight surprise on his face, and he immediately understood, "That's right, if there are really Taoist priests in Pang Shan who survive, it is likely that they will also be imprisoned in Baizhang City." ”
Ouyang Li walked to the entrance of the cave, from now on, he is no longer an insignificant casual cultivator, but a guide who wants to lead the Taoist priests to break into the hinterland of the demon clan, and muttered in a low voice: "I am the bull demon of the White Wolf Plains, the land of the demons, named Haoda, wandering since childhood, without father and mother, I came to the Demon Mountain Pass three years ago to join the Demon Clan's holy army......"
The corners of Feng Dongchen's mouth, who had already dressed up as a half-demon, twitched slightly, wondering if it was too hasty to entrust his safety to a young casual cultivator.
Ouyang Li looked outside the cave for a while, then turned around and said, "You can put away the prohibition, remember, if it's not necessary, don't cast any spells, and the seven-star essence can't stop the smell of Dao Magic." ”
The other people put away the heavy prohibitions they had set up, and Ouyang Li puffed up his chest and strode out of the cave, no longer cowering and shy.
Ouyang Li walked in the front, Shen Ji followed, often pointed him the way, Xin Youtao and Feng Dongchen walked in the middle, Mu Xingqiu Palace, he was a little worried, Feng Dongchen's demon clan was a little awkward, walking too elegantly, holding a spear in his hand, not resisting on his shoulder, but used as a crutch, if he wasn't wearing tattered leather armor and a bone helmet on his head, he looked like an old gentleman hiking in the summer.
Nearly half an hour later, the group of five people encountered the first test, and they ran into another group of ten demon soldiers. Ouyang Li lived up to expectations and roared before the other party, and after a while, Mu Xingqiu and the others understood that this was a beast and demon language.
The demon soldiers are loosely organized, not as strict as the human army, and rarely use flags and vouchers, and the special beast language is the most effective means of mutual identification, in fact, no demon believes that the Taoist priest will be willing to dress up as a demon soldier, and he can pretend to be very similar.
The other four people all bowed their heads and did not squeak, and left all the power to Ouyang Li to deal with, because they couldn't understand the demon language, even if they were betrayed, they didn't know.
As soon as he saw the real demon soldier, Feng Dongchen changed his appearance, his steps were heavy, the spear was also on his shoulder, and his mouth occasionally made a snoring sound, more like a demon soldier than the other three.
After the first pass, Ouyang Li explained to the others: "The demon soldiers are conducting a comprehensive search, there are three strongholds nearby, the latest one is located more than 100 miles to the southwest, we must pass through there if we want to go to Baizhang City." ”
"Have they ever talked about baldness?" asked Mu Xingqiu, baldness was so unique that anyone could remember it at a glance.
"I've asked, and they haven't heard of anyone being caught. ”
Ouyang Li did not lead the four of them straight to the demon soldier's stronghold in the southwest, but went around in a big circle in the mountains, gradually figured out the search route of the demon soldiers, and completely integrated into it.
That night, the five of them joined a team of hundreds of demon soldiers, rested in the field, were not allowed to light a fire, were not allowed to walk around, and could only eat the dried meat and dry food they carried with them, but no matter how strict the order was, they could not stop the roar between the demon soldiers, especially the more than 20 beast demons, who were particularly short-tempered, roaring at each other, and even more rude to the half-demon soldiers, as if they were going to draw their swords at any time, but according to Ouyang Li's whisper, the beast demons were actually talking cordially, and even joking.
There is no news of the bald man and others in this team, the demon soldiers heard that several Taoist priests were killed, and they were all talking about it excitedly, the half-demon is more accustomed to using human language, and Mu Xingqiu and others can also understand it.
In fact, there was only one Taoist priest who was killed, Zhao Zhijin, and it was not killed by the demon soldiers, and the other several charred corpses were Pangshan Taoist priests who had been killed for many years.
Xin Youtao was confused, they hadn't talked in detail since they met with Mu Xingqiu, so he asked in a low voice, "Who died?"
"Zhao Zhijin, killed by my spell. Mu Xingqiu also replied in a very small voice, and the roars of the beast demons around him muffled his voice.
Except for Feng Dongchen who was in the know, the other three were all hearing about this for the first time, and they were all stunned for a while, Shen Ji stared at Mu Xingqiu for a while and turned his head, Xin Youtao opened his mouth and thought for a long time before saying, "He cast the spell first, I can testify." ”
Ouyang Qi shushed at a few people, hissed and roared with a approaching beast demon, and also pulled out his knife and waved it at each other a few times.
After late at night, the camp finally quieted down, Feng Dongchen fell to the ground and pretended to sleep, in fact, he entered a state of doubt, Mu Xingqiu couldn't sleep and didn't have time to think, thinking about his plan over and over again: disguised as a demon can be said to be a surprise, but after finding Yang Qingyin and other Taoist priests who arrived in advance, this trick probably won't work, and if there are really Pangshan Taoist priests surviving, should they find a way to rescue them, or should they go back to explain the situation to the Taoist system? How should Zhao Zhijin's matter be explained? Where was the bald man taken by Shen Jiyi? What does that scream mean?
One of the beast demon officers suddenly let out a loud roar, and the other beast demons roared even louder, and then kicked and struck, urging the soldiers to get up, and they were going to set off overnight.
Ouyang Li didn't know the reason, and motioned for the Taoist priests to get up, and the five of them mixed in the chaotic team, running in the deep mountains and dense forests, all around was pitch black, and there were heavy footsteps and wheezing sounds from front to back.
Most of the beast demons are physically strong, and the ordinary half-demons are a little worse, not much stronger than human soldiers, which greatly slows down the speed of the night march, and it only travels more than ten miles until dawn.
During the short rest in the morning, another team of demon soldiers converged, and they brought the real reason for this rush: yesterday's search finally had results, and several Taoist priests were captured alive and were about to be escorted to the demon capital Baizhang City.
