At this time, Zhang Xiao, who was already walking with the army, walked quickly to the front line, wanting to find Zhang Xiao, and saw Gao Zhan, who was about to lead the troops forward, so he asked: "Gao Zhan, where is my cousin now, do you know?"

When Gao Zhan saw Zhang Jiao asking himself, he immediately stopped what he was doing and replied: "Master, the vanguard troops have now invaded Xinye, and presumably Uncle Shi is already in Xinye City, but don't worry, we will enter the city soon." ”

Zhang Xiao is not in a hurry now, he must find Zhang Xiao immediately, but he doesn't know where Zhang Xiao has gone, and his aura can't be sensed at all, so he no longer pays attention to Gao Zhan and goes directly into the city, wanting to find Zhang Xiao as soon as possible.

After Zhang Xiao entered Xinye, he still couldn't find where Zhang Xiao was, but he sensed that the vanguard troops were shuttling through every street and alley, looking for the enemy, but there was no trace of Zhang Xiao, at this time, Gao Zhan chased after him and said: "Master, don't worry, Uncle Shi is so powerful, what is there to be afraid of, we will rest in the city tonight, you better choose a place to live first." ”

Zhang Xiao thought about it and could only be like this, Yuan Li's secret was already known to him, and he didn't care when he told Zhang Xiao, anyway, Zhang Xiao would come over, so let's tidy up a place for him to rest first, so he asked Gao Zhan: "Then where should we go to rest, I don't know where to live here." ”

Gao Zhan immediately replied: "The important place here must be for the generals in the army to live, and the Su family also has an industry here, we can live in the Su family's teahouse, so I suggest that you and your uncle live there, it is spacious and will not be disturbed." ”

Zhang Jiao felt that such a place was not bad, at least it would have some familiar taste, so he asked: "Then where is that place, you just tell me the address." ”

Gao Zhan pointed in one direction in the city and said: "It's the huge mouth-shaped teahouse in the distance, master, you go by yourself, I still have to go to perform military affairs, if I see my uncle, I will tell him." ”

After Zhang Jiao knew the location, he walked straight there, and Gao Zhan saw that Zhang Jiao was gone, and did not stay here, so he rode his horse and rushed to the army.

Zhang Xiao followed the fake Zhang Xiao farther and farther, and finally couldn't hold it back, and said: "How far do you want to take me, just say what you have to say, come directly if you want to do it, don't make a fuss." ”

Fake Zhang Xiao stopped at this time and said: "Don't worry, I'm all for your good, we are all in the same vein as an earth immortal, and we don't have any deep hatred, so I naturally hope you can avoid a catastrophe." ”

Sure enough, there are cultivators in Xinye, Zhang Xiao is in danger now, and he must go back immediately, so he turned around and ran back.

Seeing that Zhang Xiao hadn't heard what he had said, he began to run back, so he immediately stopped him and said, "What are you doing when you go back in such a hurry, I haven't finished my words yet." ”

Zhang Xiao thought about it for a while, and he didn't know what the situation was when he ran back like this, so it was better to get some information from him, and asked, "What is the calamity you are referring to?" Tell me quickly, is there really any powerful immortal cultivator here?"

Seeing that Zhang Xiao was so anxious, Zhang Xiao comforted and said: "Don't worry, the catastrophe I said is not aimed at you, but the war, all the residents in Xinye City have been evacuated, but things are not so simple, now the city is full of flammable materials, tonight's battle is to burn Xinye, I know this is nothing to you, but at that time it will be very chaotic, and you will definitely save those people, the result is not necessarily good or bad, you better wait for it all to end." ”

It turned out that Zhang Xiao wanted to talk about the war, and Zhang Xiao was relieved, but for the sake of peace of mind, he still confirmed and asked, "Is it really just a war?"

Fake Zhang Xiao raised his hand and swore to the sky and said, "I am the only cultivator here, standing in front of you now, I swear." ”

At this time, Zhang Xiao was completely relieved, exhaled happily, and said: "That's great, but there is no army of yours here, how can you do a fire attack?"

Fake Zhang Xiao smiled mysteriously and said: "You and I both know that there are immortal cultivators in the camps of both sides, how can you not do precautionary work, and you also know something about my ability, if you want to hide their aura, it's nothing." ”

Zhang Xiao now understood everything, but how could he wait here for Cao Jun to be completely overthrown? So he turned around and walked back, saying, "Thank you for telling me, but I don't want this to happen, I still have to go back to save them." ”

Fake Zhang Xiao didn't stop it, and said: "Since I dare to tell you now, I'm not afraid that you can change all this, because now is the time to launch a fire attack, presumably Xinye has become a sea of fire, you better wait here until everything is over before leaving." ”

But Zhang Xiao ignored the fake Zhang Xiao, and still advanced like Xinye, even if he didn't care about those soldiers, Zhang Xiao and Gao Zhan and those generals themselves couldn't ignore it, they were all friends made during this time.

Yuan Li followed the old man to a spacious room, found a relatively simple mechanism placed here, and asked, "Old man shear, is this the mechanism you designed?" Why is it so small, the immortal energy contained in the green shard fragment is very large, if it can't be loaded, it may destroy everything here." ”

The old man put the two pieces of green shards in the two crystal slots in the mechanism, then twisted them tightly, and said: "I don't have the profound mechanism skills of the bloody and bitter hands, I guess I don't want to do it as unscrupulously as he extracts immortal qi in this life, but after seeing his facilities, I have also learned some of his experience there, and I may be able to extract immortal qi if I want to." ”

This matter was very important to Yuan Li, so he asked nervously, "Then how sure are you of extracting immortal qi, and how dangerous is it?"

The old man used his belt to tie the crystal trough sturdy, and said: "I haven't been studying this project for long, and I haven't had the opportunity to contact the treasures with immortal energy, so it's hard for me to say how sure it is, but the danger is definitely relatively high, and if it fails, the consequences are unpredictable, but why did you come so early, I thought it would wait until after the fire attacked Xinye." ”

This answer made Yuan Li very uneasy, biting his fingers and pacing back and forth in the room, if the extraction of immortal qi failed, it is estimated that the damage will not be smaller than when he was in the artificial city, although there are no more residents in Xinye, there is no need to worry about hurting the people, but if he fails, he may not have a chance to escape here, this matter still has to be cautious.

Yuan Li didn't know whether to give it a try or not, so he asked the old man again: "Since you have designed this mechanism, then it must have its merits, what are its advantages?"

The old man shears assembled several other parts of the mechanism that had not yet been installed, and explained: "Although this small mechanism is not as precise as the bloody painstaking hand, it can also extract the immortal qi from the Qingyu fragments, and it can be extracted at a uniform speed, but I have no way to collect the immortal qi yet, so you must collect the immortal qi floating in the air by yourself, I believe you should be able to do it." ”

After the old man finished speaking, he beckoned to Yuan Li, motioned for him to come over, and when he walked in, he pointed to the crystal trough and the mechanism next to it that seemed to be a well, and said: "You see the design of this mechanism, it is based on the mechanism in the artificial city, but I don't know what the starting energy is over there? ”

The old man pressed the lever of the mechanism, showed it to Yuan Li, and said: "As soon as I press here, the mechanism will continue to inflate the crystal tank, and the air pressure will become very large, and then lead to the only ventilation pipe, which will enter the bottom, and the end of the bottom is the spiritual object you gave me." ”

Yuan Li was a little puzzled, his spiritual object could only be used by himself, and the old man was not a cultivator, could he use the spiritual energy in it? So he asked, "You borrowed my spiritual object, but can you use its spiritual energy?" Do you need me to help you in the process of running the mechanism?"

The old man stopped his movements, pointed to the base under the crystal tank, and said: "You don't have to bother with this, the spiritual object you gave me is in it, and when the huge air pressure fills this cavity, the spiritual energy in the spiritual object will be forced out, and the spiritual energy will fill the entire cavity with the airflow." ”
