Chapter 335: Shu Lu said, Chu Tiancheng, I must kill him
Chu Tiancheng reached out and lifted the wine jug to add wine to the wine glass, and then stood up and took a sip, this action was purely a cover-up, the eldest lady was always unpredictable, and it was difficult to tell whether what she said was true or false. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 info
Judging from the eldest lady's previous words, she is playing a trick on herself, but why does she want to play such an obvious trick on herself? The most important thing is that her last sentence does not seem to be wrong, the power of the demon clan is strong, and after the stone of the soul of the universe appears, it will inevitably become an obstacle to her, so the demon clan and the ten major families are fighting, and the biggest beneficiary is her.
What exactly does she want to do?
It is not easy to find useful information among true and false information, so sometimes the purpose of talking is not to get useful information from the other person's mouth, but to get a new direction of thinking from the other person's mouth.
Chu Tiancheng quickly thought of a new question, put down his wine glass, and said to the eldest lady: "If you go to the Western Regions and the Central Plains, you may be able to bypass the city, but you can't go to Zhongzhou, do you think the goal of the demon clan is it possible that Zhongzhou?"
The eldest lady smiled slightly and said, "What you said is quite tactful! However, I didn't plan to hide this from you, the target of the demon clan is Zhongzhou nine times out of ten." ”
"Huh?" Chu Tiancheng's expression was a little more questioning, and he said.
The eldest lady said slowly: "In the northernmost snowy region of Zhongzhou, there is a place called Beiming, where there is a palace that was built countless years ago when the demons were trapped in the snowy region. The goal of the demons should be there. ”
"Beiming Palace?"
Chu Tiancheng frowned slightly, pondered for a moment, and said to the eldest lady: "The snowy region is an extremely cold and dangerous place, with the current strength of the demon clan, you can go to the Central Plains to find a good place to settle down, why run to that kind of barren land?"
The eldest lady said: "That's not the case, once the human race knows the existence of the demon race, it will inevitably put aside the view of martial arts and join forces to destroy the demon, the palace in Beiming is guarded by the formation set up by the ancestors of the demon race, it is the best refuge for the demon race, and it is rumored that there are a lot of treasures hidden there." In addition, the demons have long been accustomed to living in poor mountains and dangerous places, so Beiming is the best place for the demons. ”
Chu Tiancheng thought to himself, if what the eldest lady said was true, then the target of the demon clan was indeed very likely to be Beiming, Beiming was in the snowy region north of the hidden capital, and the snowy region was not only extremely cold, but also inhabited by countless demon beasts, which was the most dangerous place, and there was no one. The demon clan settled in Beiming, not only guarded by a formation, but also a solid barrier in the snow region.
"If you go to Zhongzhou, you must pass through Chang'an City, which means that the demon forces are coming to attack the city. "Chu Tian became enlightened.
The eldest lady smiled and said, "Not necessarily!"
"Huh?" Chu Tiancheng's face once again showed a look of doubt.
The eldest lady said: "Actually, many people don't know, there is also a road to the Central Plains at the East Gate, but no one has been through it for too long, so it is deserted, there is no need to enter the city through the Central Plains in Southern Xinjiang, and the East Gate can lead to the Central Plains and Zhongzhou, so the demons do not actually need to enter the city, they only need to go around to the Central Plains from the South Gate, and then go around to Zhongzhou from the almost deserted road in the Central Plains." ”
The south gate leads to the Western Regions, the south of Xinjiang and the Central Plains, and the east gate leads to the Central Plains and Zhongzhou, in fact, the exchanges between the major martial arts may not necessarily enter Chang'an City, but Chang'an City is prosperous, and there are no wild shops nearby, so the major martial arts come and go, they must enter the city, so the road leading to the East Gate to the Central Plains is deserted.
Chu Tiancheng didn't doubt the eldest lady's words, and at the same time he was thinking that the demon clan had a lot of eyeliner in the human world, so he must also know these paths that had long been abandoned. The demon clan is newly established, and it is not suitable to fight a war of attrition, so that the eldest lady's guess is a little more likely.
Then, even if the goal of the demon clan is Beiming and withdraw to the defense line outside the city, it may really be possible to avoid an unnecessary war. However, how to talk to the Zhao family?
The Zhao family has always been that people don't offend me, I don't offend people, but it's easy to persuade, but the number of cultivators may not be so easy to speak.
Just as Chu Tiancheng was sorting out his thoughts, Zhang Han walked over, saluted the two of them first, and then said: "Miss, uncle, the demon clan stopped at ten miles outside the city, but did not confront the cultivators outside the city, but camped in the nearby mountains and forests. ”
Chu Tiancheng was slightly stunned and said, "It's here so soon?"
Demon camp.
Demon Lord Shulu and several old men of the demon clan sat in the tent to discuss the matter of crossing Chang'an City. Among those demon clan elders, two of them had a very high prestige in the Divine Palace, one was Elder Yan who was once in charge of the Punishment Mansion, and the other was the chief instructor of the Divine Temple, surnamed Leng, known as Mr. Leng. The others are also big names in the shrine.
"The ten major families of Chang'an City are not self-sufficient, trying to block the way of our clan, if you want me to say, take this opportunity to capture Chang'an City, frustrate the spirit of the human race, and also serve as the leader of my clan!"
"Foolishly think that it is impossible, the ten major families in Chang'an City have a deep heritage, not to mention that there are tens of thousands of cultivators in front of the city now, and they have some to do with many hidden sects, once the war starts, I am afraid that there will be a protracted war and a war of attrition, our clan is newly established, and it is important to return to Beiming first to settle down!"
"Hmph, isn't it just tens of thousands of cultivators? Those cultivators of the human race are as brittle as women and children, and their hearts are not aligned, and they are vulnerable, I implore the king to give me two hundred warriors, and within two hours, I will break through the other defense!"
"It is taboo to underestimate the enemy, and it is foolish to think that it is impossible to attack rashly, the ten major families of Chang'an City have always not offended me, I will not offend anyone. In my humble opinion, maybe we can get a debater to negotiate with them, and let them let us go north, and this war can be avoided!"
Several demon clan elders had their own opinions, argued, and reached an impasse, but the two elders of Yan who were once the most prestigious in the temple, Mr. Leng did not speak.
Demon Monarch Shulu looked at Elder Yan and asked, "Elder Yan, what do you think about the matter of Chang'an City?"
Elder Yan got up and saluted the Demon Qun Shu Lu before saying, "Back to the Emperor, the old man is not good at fighting, so he doesn't dare to speak up!"
Demon Monarch Shulu nodded, looked at Mr. Leng, and asked the same question.
Mr. Leng, as his name suggests, has a cold expression, looking at a middle-aged man, counting, he is also the youngest person in the tent except for the Demon Monarch Shulu.
Hearing Demon Monarch Shulu's question, he stood up, bowed like Elder Yan did, and then said slowly: "As a warrior, I should be the main battle, but judging from the current situation, I think I should mainly consider returning to Beiming first. ”
Demon Monarch Shu Lu said: "I agree with Mr. Leng's statement. The ultimate goal of our race is to destroy all human beings, but there are many human races, and there are many sects and families that have been lurking in the shadows, not a matter of a while, and now that our race is newly established, the top priority is to settle down and recuperate, thinking that it is a big plan!"
"Your Majesty is wise!" several old men of the Demon Clan flattered the Demon Monarch.
"But—"
The Demon Lord Shulu looked at the clans and said lightly: "The human race is the enemy of our race, and our race will never negotiate with the enemy!"
When the old man of the demon clan who was in charge of the battle heard this, he stood up and said to the demon lord Shulu: "Your Majesty, I am willing to be the vanguard!"
"Sit down!"
The Demon Monarch Shulu looked at the old man of the Demon Clan with dissatisfaction, and the old man of the Demon Clan did not dare to anger the Demon Monarch Shulu, and sat down stupidly. The expression of the demon group quickly regained indifference, and said to the demon clans: "Chang'an City is controlled by the ten major families, and it is actually embraced by the Zhao family. The Zhao family can sit in Chang'an City, which is located in the center of the major martial arts, and it is by no means so simple. Therefore, there is no need for us to go to war with the Zhao family. ”
The old men of the demon clan whispered one by one, if they don't negotiate, if they don't go to war, how can they do it? Do you fly over? You will be stopped if you fly over? Demon Lord Shulu coughed lightly twice, and the old men stopped talking.
"The reason why Chang'an City is the center of the major martial arts, but because there are mountains between the major martial arts, Chang'an City is just at the tail of the mountains, there are many beasts in the mountains, ordinary people dare not go over the mountains and mountains, so Chang'an City has become a necessary place for the major martial arts to communicate, but it is the strength of our clan to cross the mountains and mountains, we directly from the mountains into the Central Plains, and then from the Central Plains to Zhongzhou, Ren must pass through Chang'an?"
"Your Majesty is wise!" the old men of the demon clan flattered again.
"But—"
With a sharp gaze, the Demon Monarch Shulu glanced at the demons and said coldly: "The Terrans have declared war on us with great fanfare, if we don't respond, wouldn't we be afraid?" So, tonight, a few of you, each with a hundred warriors, will go to attack the defense line outside the city, and Mr. Leng and I will go to the city to 'shop'. ”
"Your Majesty!"
Perhaps because of the fighting, the old men shouted louder.
It was agreed that several old men of the demon clan retreated one after another, and soon the demon lord Shulu and Mr. Leng were left in the tent, as well as an old man who only came in when the demons retreated.
This old man was none other than the old man who found the Demon Lord Shulu in the broken house that day, and when Shulu changed his name, he also changed his name together, named Tuan, with the intention of slaughtering the human race.
Tu Xuan came to the side of the Demon Lord Shulu, and said to Shulu: "Meng Yunxi is recuperating in the temple, and he should not be able to get out of his body at night, but ......"
Speaking of which, Tu Xuan looked at Mr. Leng, as if he was hinting at something to the Demon Monarch Shulu. Demon Monarch Shulu looked at Tu Xuan and said, "Mr. Leng will act with me today. ”
Tu Xuan was slightly stunned, and leaned into the Demon Monarch Shulu and whispered a few words.
"What?"
Suddenly, Demon Monarch Shulu's expression became a little more solemn, and he whispered to Tu Zhan: "Then what is his attitude?"
Tu Yan said: "I don't know, he seems to have discovered me and is deliberately avoiding me! However, his residence is extremely close to Chu Tiancheng's residence, if we move Chu Tiancheng, we will definitely alarm him, so I am thinking, maybe this is not a coincidence!"
"Humph!"
Demon Monarch Shulu slapped the table and said with a slight annoyance: "I can't care so much, Chu Tiancheng I must kill him, and the plan will go on as usual tonight!"
