After a year, the demons unexpectedly only came to harass them once, and this time Aoyama was repelled by the others without even seeing what the demons looked like.

At that time, when the demons came to harass, it was not the west they guarded, firstly, there were not many demons who came to harass, and secondly, in order to prevent the demons from attacking the west, so Liang Hongbo ordered Qingshan and a few people to hold their posts steadily.

Qingshan and the others were full of enthusiasm to kill the enemy, but they had no choice but to obey the arrangement.

At that time, a few people were in a hurry, especially the four of Tie Xinlan, they were so angry that they shouted bad luck, why they were sent to protect the West, and why the demons attacked other directions in a remote way, but did not attack the West.

Later, when I calmed down and analyzed, I felt that the west was backed by mountains and the terrain was rugged, and the demons would naturally not be stupid enough to climb over the mountains.

Afterwards, several people even went to Liang Hongbo and asked for a change of position, but they ushered in a slap in the face of Liang Hongbo, and he was immediately driven back to the West.

In this way, they really don't have much to do other than cultivation.

But because of this, it gave Qingshan a lot of time to cultivate, and after such a day after day of cultivation, after another half a year, he finally broke through to the sixth layer of Jindan with the rich aura of Baicao Garden, and it was only one step away from the late stage of Jindan.

Although it was only a small improvement, it was enough to make him excited for a while, and he couldn't wait to fly in front of the second uncle immediately, and then tell him loudly: Look, look, it's only been a little more than two years, but I have broken through from the fourth layer of Jindan to the sixth layer, do you still think my progress is slow?

After the breakthrough, Qingshan was the first to run to Gu Yue'er's side and excitedly told her the news, but she didn't expect it to cause her to roll her eyes for a while, "You still dare to show off to me like this?"

Qingshan was in a good mood, so he naturally didn't care about her, but then Gu Yue'er's words made him completely blindfolded, and he only heard her say: "You are only in the middle stage of Jindan, in this kind of place, you have only improved so much, do you know how much everyone else has improved? They are all in the Yuan Infant Stage, but they have all improved at least a small realm, tell me yourself, how slow are you?"

Qingshan was stunned for a moment before he asked in disbelief, "Really, don't you joke with me." ”

Gu Yue'er said in a deep voice: "Who has time to joke with you about this kind of thing? If you don't believe it, you can ask Tie Xinlan and them to see if I lied to you." ”

Qingshan took a deep breath, waved his hand in frustration and said, "That's it, I know the result without asking." ”

"Hey, then again, is your talent really that bad? Or have you not been serious about cultivating at all during this time? Otherwise, how could your progress be so slow?"

Aoyama had already been distracted by her, so he didn't bother to pay attention to her, just shook his head in frustration and turned away.

"Hey, what's wrong with him today? It's not like his personality at all. Gu Yue'er was quite surprised, with her understanding of Qingshan, the other party would definitely fight her to the end, could it be because she was hit? But it's not like ah, I usually hit him less? It's really strange.

It's a pity that her understanding of Qingshan has always only stayed on the surface, and she doesn't know how much Qingshan cares about her own cultivation, how much she cares about her ability to quickly close the gap with others in the realm.

Day after day, another month passed in the blink of an eye, and on this day, Qingshan happened to be meditating and cultivating, but faintly heard a slight sound of footsteps from the foot of the mountain, if it wasn't for his realm improvement, it would be difficult to detect it at all.

Qingshan was shocked, could it be that a demon had come to commit it? But he soon began to fight again, I have been aggrieved for a long time, and I am just using you to vent my anger.

So he hurriedly climbed up the nearby boulder and secretly looked down, but he didn't care, only to see a black and oppressive piece, all of which were demons of different shapes, and there were about a dozen leaders who looked more like humans.

Demons are not difficult to identify, because even if they look like people, they will inevitably have all kinds of strange shapes on their bodies, either horns on their heads, or various colored scales on their bodies, etc

It is very different from the demon beast that is transformed into a human, because once the demon beast is transformed into a human, if the demon qi is well hidden, it is difficult to distinguish whether they are a human or a demon beast.

Qingshan didn't dare to be careless, and quickly took out the communication jade slip, and told the situation simply and clearly, and within a while, Gu Yue'er and a few people took the lead in coming to his side.

Tie Xinlan asked excitedly in a low voice, "The demon is here?"

"Well, it's at the foot of the mountain, and it doesn't take long for it to come up?"

Xiahou Jun rubbed his palms and said excitedly: "Great, this time has suffocated me, don't fight me for credit for a while, I'm going to kill, this group of bitches raised it." ”

Qingshan glanced at a few people in surprise, and found that except for Gu Yue'er, the other four people were full of excitement, which was greatly unexpected by him.

Didn't it mean that the Qingzhou monks were on the same page as the demon clan? They should be full of anger and hatred, how could they be so excited? Could it be that the words they always talk about fighting for the people of Qingzhou are all casual words? Aren't they resentful of the demons? Could it be that they only came to join the army for those so-called military exploits?

Just as Qingshan was thinking wildly, Gu Yue'er suddenly asked in a low voice, "Have you informed the captain of them?"

"I was informed, and I sent the message as soon as possible. ”

"It's strange, why haven't they come to support after so long?" Gu Yue'er muttered, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes, this time the demons must have attacked in several directions, and the captain should have gone to support other places." ”

It seemed that in order to verify Gu Yue'er's guess, the communication jade slip in Qingshan's hand sounded almost as soon as her words fell, and Qingshan shook his head with a wry smile after looking at it.

Xiahou Jun's face suddenly gloomy after listening to Gu Yue'er's words, and now Qingshan's message Yu Jian just rang again, and he couldn't help but feel confused in his heart, and asked eagerly: "Is it a message from the captain, what did he say?"

Qingshan smiled bitterly and raised a finger, "Just one word, save your life first." ”

Everyone changed color when they heard this, and Tie Xinlan muttered, "What about the mission?"

Wu Yuanzheng said in a deep voice: "Bullshit mission, or the captain is right, the most important thing is life." ”

"Who doesn't know that the most important thing is to save their lives, but the most important thing is what we do?

Xiahou Jun replied with a low expression: "Xinlan, don't make this kind of joke again, okay? Escaping from the battle, this is a first-class crime, and the battalion commander will pick our skin." ”

Before the enemy arrived, the three of them fell into chaos first, which made Gu Yue'er look extremely unhappy, "What are you arguing about? Don't we still have a magic circle? With our means, can't we hold on for a while?"

"yes, how did I forget that. Xiahou Jun suddenly realized.

Yang Lianyue listened to them while carefully probing out the situation, she had always been very calm, and she couldn't calm down at this time, "It's not good, the situation has changed, they seem to be dividing into several ways." ”

When a few people heard this, they quickly put down the discussion, and looked at it one after another, only to see that the demon below suddenly divided into several directions, and a few people were puzzled for a while, this is a trouble?

So he hurriedly asked Qingshan to feedback the situation to Liang Hongbo, and Liang Hongbo's tone suddenly became anxious, "You guys disperse quickly, go back to your own place, the enemy is going to attack each other, remember, try to protect yourself, you just need to find a way to contain it a little, our side will solve it and go over to help soon." ”

As soldiers, the first thing they were indoctrinated was to obey orders unconditionally, and although they were in danger at the moment, they had no intention of disobeying orders. But it's okay to get together, but once you disperse, isn't it even more dangerous?

"I'll go first, come on. Gu Yue'er didn't say much, just put down this sentence and went back to her post.

The rest of the people, you look at me, I look at you, and finally they all let out a bad breath, Yang Lianyue said: "What are you hesitating about? If you hesitate any longer, I'm afraid it will be too late." ”

So, the people cheered each other up again, then scattered, and quickly rushed back to the place where they were stationed.

In this way, Qingshan was the only one left, but he was not afraid, because in addition to the magic circle in the Hundred Herb Garden, he also carried two magic circles with him, and it might be difficult to kill the enemy, but he thought that there was no problem with self-preservation.

But what Qing Shan wants is not to save his life, what he wants is to make meritorious service as soon as possible, only when his military merits go up, he will have the opportunity to contact higher-level figures, only then can he find out the next strategic policy of the Qiankun Sect as quickly as possible, and the pace of finding Murong Bai will be further accelerated.

After thinking about it carefully, Aoyama probed down again, and found that the leading demon was a woman with a pair of small horns on her head, which was really difficult to spot if you didn't look closely.

This woman is named Ayilian, and she is also a young and promising rising star in the Archer tribe of the Demon Race, so she was assigned as the captain of one of the squads.

And there were about thirty demons behind her, all of them looked strange, but their cultivation was not low, judging from the aura emanating from their bodies, about half of their cultivation was definitely not under the Yuan Infant Stage.

"No, if you wait for them to come up and then defend, it will inevitably be very passive, for today's plan, only find a hidden place to place the Sumeru Spirit Array and the Demon Punishment Array, so that you can turn passive into active. ”

But it's not so easy to sneak attack the demons, they have rough skin and thick flesh, not to mention lack of cultivation, even monks of the same level are difficult to break through their defenses, can they do it themselves?

After some ideological struggle, Qingshan spat out a mouthful of turbidity, "Damn, it's done, people die for money, birds die for food, and if you can't hit it, you can escape immediately." ”

After Qingshan confirmed the other party's position again, he quickly dodged away from the Hundred Herb Garden, found a relatively spacious position on the mountainside, and after superimposing the two magic circles and releasing them, he took down the longbow.

Aylian took the lead and climbed at a fast speed, and suddenly, a feathered arrow with a piercing light swished to her, if it was usual, it would not be difficult to dodge, but right now, people are climbing on the stones, and it will be difficult to dodge for a while.

In desperation, she could only try her best to tilt her head to one side, although she avoided the fatal point, but due to the suddenness of the incident, the feather arrow still cut her cheek, leaving a shallow blood mark in an instant.

Ayilian secretly rejoiced, fortunately she dodged in time, otherwise my life would have been lost.

"Head, are you alright?"

"It's okay, let's be vigilant, the enemy will definitely hide in the shadows and sneak attack. ”

However, Qingshan's goal had been achieved, and he didn't think that an arrow could take the other party's life, as long as he could attract the other party's attention and attract the other party into the magic circle he had placed.

So, he shot a few arrows in succession, shooting many demons into a loud scream, and Aoyama couldn't help but laugh when he saw this, "Hey, it seems that these bows and arrows are really very useful against demons." ”

Although he alone and a bow could not inflict substantial damage on the demons, what if there were thousands of people? As soon as he thought that the air was full of dense arrows, Aoyama couldn't help but shudder.
