Chapter 20 Gujiabao
Yongzhou, Yougujun
Gujiabao!!
The towering city gates, the fortresses made of huge stones, and the land within a radius of hundreds of miles are firmly surrounded by gray-black walls. The surrounding area of the pen fun pavilion www.biquge.info is dotted with villages gathered because of the ancient fort.
Flutter flutter!
At this time, a large bird is flapping its huge wings and flying far away, looking down from the air, the ground below is green and yellow, and it is no longer a desolate desert.
Creak!
A loud chirp rang out in the air, and the sound was transmitted downward, causing the people on the ground to look up one after another, only to see a large black shadow flashing from above.
"What's that?!
A childish voice came, and the ignorant child asked curiously.
"Yes... It's the monster!"
Someone shouted suddenly with a hint of panic in his tone
"Lazy woman, take care of our cattle and sheep quickly, don't let this beast be harmed!" Lao Wang, you be quiet, if the people in Fucheng hear it, we won't be able to eat and walk around. ”
····
A black shadow flew swiftly over the village, and as it approached the ancient fort, a trumpet sounded from the bunker built on the city wall.
Sharp-eyed people have already discovered it!
Woowoo woo –
This is the clarion call of the Gujiabao guard.
The soldiers patrolling the city walls immediately became vigilant, and in this era, monsters that provoke trouble are not uncommon.
"Newspaper—"
"There's a fowl coming!"
Immediately a group of guards poured out of the bunker, dressed in iron and heavy armor, and their movements were like the wind, and they ran to the wall with regular steps.
"Flying Feather Team, listen to me!"
One of the men in the lead roared, and he held a large bow in his hand and gave the order to shoot an arrow when the monster approached.
Suddenly, his eyes narrowed, and the monster that was getting closer and closer became clear, but he saw that it was covered in blue-black feathers, huge wings, sharp iron beak, and a cold light flashing in a pair of eyes, gradually, it coincided with a bird in his memory.
His pupils shrank, and he shouted, "It's an eagle!"
- "Release!"
The sound of the horn in the bunker suddenly stopped, and the monster slashed above them, leaving behind a hurricane.
Belch!
It disappeared in front of the bunker with a slightly sarcastic chirp!
"You arrogant brute!"
The soldiers were so unsteady by the hurricane that they almost fell off the city wall, and they cursed angrily, but the man who led the group stood still, and he looked in the direction of the eagle's departure, silently distracted.
He said to himself in vain: "This Zhifei, it seems that there is news·····"
For a while, the complexion was complicated.
···
···
The fang-eagle is a powerful monster with a lot of spirituality, flying extremely fast, able to resist the wind and hurt people, with a wave of giant wings, it can shake thousands of pounds of heavy objects, full of wildness, and non-strong people cannot be subdued.
And just as the young general on the city wall expected, this fang eagle is the one released by this Zhifei, it only took a day and night, it flew thousands of miles, and finally flew back to Gujiabao at noon today! At this moment, it stopped on a building, the iron beak pecked at the green feathers on its body, and gradually stopped moving, but it was so tired that it fell asleep, and the letter tied to its ankle had been taken away.
This letter, written by this Zhifei person, immediately caused an uproar among the high-level people of Gujiabao!
In the afternoon of the same day, the heavy iron gate of Gujiabao was opened, and a team of people and horses rushed out of it, among them, there was the young general who was responsible for guarding the tower defense, his name was this Zhihe Liao, the first-class martial artist promoted this year, but he was only thirty years old, and he was placed in the Gujiabao of hundreds of thousands of people, and there were only a few people who were afraid of such outstanding achievements.
At this moment, this Zhihe Liao rode out of the city gate, and he was in a trance for a while, still recalling the entrustment of the respected Great Elder.
"This Zhihe Liao, I order you to lead 200 elite soldiers and strong generals to the Western Wilderness to support this Zhifei! In addition, you are allowed to bring another team of Modao team, and prepare an additional 200 Daliang horses and 200 pieces of green shirt silk, and set off immediately, there must be no mistakes!"
The Great Elder's majestic voice was still in his ears, and this Zhihe Liao came back to his senses, and he glanced at the black-pressed soldiers behind him, and a menacing team attracted his attention.
This group of people dressed lightly on their horses, with cloaks covering their heads, and carrying a strange knife on their waists and hips, but they were silent, and compared with the iron-clad soldiers on the side, it seemed that a dark darkness with the smell of blood shrouded them, making them look gloomy and terrifying.
"Mo Dao Team!"
The corners of Zhihe Liao's eyes shrank, and he only felt that this operation could be called huge! It actually made the Great Elder invest so many resources, Da Liangma and Qing Yiyi were secondary, and the key was the Mo Dao team. You must know that although the Modao team has only 30 people in a team, they are all second-rate martial artists with tacit understanding, and they are the sharp blades of the Zhi Zhou family against the enemy, and they have never been easily used.
"This Zhifei, what did you find in the Western Desert!?"
For the real purpose of this time, this Zhihe Liao naturally did not know, he just clamped his legs, urged the good horse under his crotch, pointed his arm to the west, and shouted: "Go!"
"Let's go!"
The roars of hundreds of soldiers converged into a line, like thunder, and they all avoided the avenue when they heard it, and no one dared to stop it!
The Iron Army traveled and stepped out of the flying sand, and they soon left the boundary of Gujiabao. This huge military operation will soon be known to others, and in Yongzhou Yougu Jun, there is no force that does not know the prestige of the Modao team!
···
···
However, whether it is two hundred elite soldiers, or the Modao team, or even this Zhihe Liao, it is just a pretext that Gujiabao deliberately released it, and no one knows that in the middle of the night, when the dark clouds happened to cover the moonlight!
Several figures suddenly appeared strangely on the city wall, and when the moonlight returned, it was empty.
···
···
Three days later······
The vast desert is a sea of yellow sand, and the first thing you feel when you enter it is the air that has become scorching.
Sigh!
Several men appeared in the desert on fast horses, dressed in wide blue robes, with hats on their heads to shade the sun, and several large knives on their stomachs or backs.
The current one raised his head, revealing a hooked nose and a dark face.
"The scorching sun is about to top, and we can't go any further. ”
He squinted his eyes and looked up, and the bright light of the scorching sun above his head seemed to tear his eyes apart.
"Dismount!"
Under this scorching sun, if you want to hurry up the horse, I am afraid that the horse will die of exhaustion before it is halfway through.
"Ah, the wheeled car and Huhemu go to build a tent, the others, feed the horses. ”
After giving the order, the man jumped off his mount, took out a jade box in his arms, and when he opened it, a clear fragrance was immediately revealed.
Purr!
Beside him, the cries of beasts were heard.
"Don't worry!"
The man smiled as he pulled out a thumb-sized fruit from the jade box, which radiated in the sunlight.
Purr!
The moment he took out the fruit, a black shadow flashed and suddenly stole the fruit from his hand.
When the man saw that his mount had already begun to chew the fruit, he could not help but curse: "My thousand buds, beast!", and saw that beside him, there was a very tall and strong horse, and on its forehead, there was even an acute horn, its body was broad, and its limbs were slender and powerful, it was simply a divine horse.
Herod!
The horse finished the fruit and let out a sarcastic laugh.
Hum!
The gloomy man glared at him, but he was helpless... It's not easy to subdue a demon beast, but I don't want it to defect.
The man turned his head, only to see a few more people coming from behind, he counted silently, and the people were finally together.
At this time, this team of only seven people formed a lineup that was second to none even in Yongzhou! Looking at their mounts again, they were all different, except for the one-horned horse that the man subdued, the others rode fierce beasts shaped like cheetahs and lions!
"Pavilion Elder !"
The three who came late shouted respectfully to the man with their fists clenched, their mounts stopped ten meters away from the man, and each of them showed a timid look in the leopard-eyed lion eyes, obviously a little jealous of the divine horse beside the man.
Herod!
After the god horse finished gnawing on the strange fruit, he looked at the three beasts with disdain and turned his head away. As a monster, it can easily crush these seemingly ferocious carnivorous beasts.
The man known as Ge Lao patted the divine horse, his eyes were cold, and he drank coldly at the three of them: "Hmph! Yangchun Sanzi, why are you here so late?", the three people's faces immediately turned pale, even if their status in Yongzhou is not low, but in front of this person, they still have to be people with their tails between their legs.
Fortunately, the elder did not pursue it, he waved his hand and said: "Forget it, since you are here, let's quickly meditate and rest, we have now entered the Western Desert and are about to start on our way." ”
Several people responded one after another, as the elder entered the awning and began to meditate, in fact, with their strength, they were not afraid of the scorching sun, if anyone observed carefully, they would find that they did not even shed a drop of sweat!
How stable their breath is, it will not change because of the heat or coldness of external objects, a true yuan qi is hidden in the abdomen, and the breath repeats itself, faintly repelling the dry heat from the desert from the body.
These seven people have all comprehended the way of qi control, which means that in the True Yuan Continent, they are most likely all pre-Yuan masters!
The seven Ancestors Masters, no matter which state they appear in, will raise the highest vigilance of the most powerful forces in the local area! Fortunately, they have only come to this land where there is no hair.
This meditation lasted for several hours, and when the direct rays of the sun became oblique, the elder opened his eyes, he looked at the still dazzling sunset, and said, "Action!"
The seven got up from the ground, jumped on their respective mounts, and rushed to the depths of the desert, and above their heads was a fang-eagle guiding the way!
Before leaving, a big man who was blind in his right eye waved his hand and silently lit the piled wooden platform and lit a bonfire.
This bonfire is made of special wood, which can burn in the desert for three days, and during the day it will emit colored smoke, and in the desert, wolf smoke rises, which is a very effective guide.
Ge Lao glanced back at the slowly burning bonfire, revealing a sneer, no matter who touches the green river, if you have the ability, come with it!
"Let's go!"
As soon as the elder urged his crotch to mount, the divine horse immediately let out a roar, and suddenly turned into a gust of wind and rushed towards the depths of the desert!
Its speed was so fast that when the sand and dust rose up, its figure had already disappeared into the distance, and the people behind it could only eat the sand.
"The one-horned horse is truly extraordinary, and its foot strength and speed are far beyond the reach of our mounts!"
One of Yangchun's three sons showed envy, and on the side, the man who was called Huhemu behind him said with a smile: "Ge Lao's mount is a demon beast, and its strength is also among the best compared to us, but if you compare it with the speed, it is thousands of miles away. ”
"I don't want to eat sand behind it and walk separately!"
The blind man in his right eye was named Ah Wheel, and as soon as he pulled the tiger head of the mount under his crotch, the tiger beast immediately knew what it meant, and it ran to the left to avoid the wind and sand, and the rest of the people did the same, and they all broke away from the sand road left by the elder of the pavilion, but followed closely.
The rush began to fall into silent silence again, and after several hours, these monsters did not get tired at all, and still kept running at high speed.
At this time, a man who fell at the end suddenly raised his head from the thick fluff of the leopard's neck, and in his sight, several vultures were coiled in the sky in front of him, and a figure quickly enlarged in front of his eyes!
It's... A man.
To be precise, a man who was about to die, he lay quietly under a rudimentary awning, his body as thin as a human shrive, and it was clear at a glance that he had been dehydrated for a long time.
Just seeing the two of them getting closer and closer, it seemed that they could smell the smell of despair emanating from that person.
Roar –
The leopard let out a roar in vain, and the man immediately patted it on the head, there are more people dead in the desert of the Western Wilderness, what does this person have to do with him? Even if he doesn't have something important at the moment, he can't come to his rescue.
Let him fend for himself!
Swish!
The leopard leaped to its feet and glided over the awning as if it were leaping, its form leaping over several dunes in an instant, but with a few breaths, it left the man far behind.
The man buried his head in the fur of the monster, and he could not and could not notice the despair in the eyes of the man under the awning at the moment he left!
But this despair flashed, and instead, it revealed an infinite desire for life!
——
——
The man was stunned, trying to see the vulture staring at him in the sky, but unfortunately, he had been exposed to the scorching sun for the past few days, and his eyes were nearly blind. And these grim reapers, who have a keen sense of smell, have been eyeing him as early as two days ago, but as long as he is not really dead, it is impossible to let go of the knife in his hand, and the few bones on the ground that have been drained of blood are the evidence. Unfortunately, because of this, the vultures have become extremely cautious, preferring to be patient and silently waiting for their own death, rather than being driven by greed and taking even the slightest risk to make up for this dying prey
······
······
He closed his eyes rarely, letting the sound of running fade away in his ears, and his body gradually lost its vitality like the sound, and every day the scorching sun evaporated his life as water, but this did not prevent him from continuing to keep his mind thinking.
Still thinking, only this made him feel that he was still alive...
····
····
As night fell, the vultures rested on top of the awning, flapping their wings.
He opened his eyes, and apart from the glimmer of light, he looked like a dead man all over. The smell of death was so strong that it excites the vultures to the extreme, and they hiss harshly, and soon they will be able to enjoy a delicious meal with the night.
Suddenly, the man said to himself: "Living, it turns out to be so beautiful, even if I broke my leg, it is better than death!"
At this moment, the past was replayed over and over again in my eyes... In the previous life, before he could stretch his ambition, he died of pain, and in this life, it was even more desolate, and he didn't even have a martial arts ambition, so he had to report to the king of Hades.
"I'm not reconciled, I'm not reconciled!"
He roared with all his strength, but the vultures above danced with joy.
Hahaha
He can still laugh, but when this laugh ends, he will die!
Death, that's it.
At this moment, he cut off all his thoughts, and only unwilling to brew and ferment in his heart.
The moonlight finally splashed in, and I saw the lonely shadow on the ground swaying slightly, accompanied by silent laughter!!
Death finally came at this moment.
