Chapter 14: The Great War Ahead
Time flies by in a flash, and I don't feel that three months have passed in a flash.
After a long snowfall and early sunshine, among the mountains of the prison dragon, the icicles are like wolf teeth, and they are silver and white.
As the sun set, the mining area on the east side of the Prison Dragon Prison was even more dilapidated, and Qin Zhan slowly walked out of the mine cave on the east side.
Three months is not long, but not too short. But in the three months of immersion in the breeze and chaotic sword slashing, Qin Zhan suddenly felt that he was no longer young. He suddenly realized that his life was at an end, but the road to cultivating immortals was endless, such a decadent thing. At this time, the big war was coming, but this matter could not set off a wave in his heart.
During the three months of cultivation, Qin Zhan took the Nine Turns Baicao Pill every day, but there was no miracle breakthrough, but he also felt that he was faintly improving. In addition, with the gradual cultivation and the fact that he learned the Qingfeng Chaos Sword Slash, Qin Zhan vaguely felt that there were traces to follow whenever he saw the person in his dream dancing with a sword in the future, and he felt that it became clearer and clearer. It's just that it's just compared to before.
Under the sparring of the iron-scaled pangolin, Qin Zhan practiced the Qingfeng Chaos Sword to the third slash, and the three months had come to an end.
For the power of the Qingfeng Chaos Sword Slash, Qin Zhan was also quite satisfied. When he folded his sword to the third slash, it left marks on the hard armor of the iron-scaled pangolin. You must know that the strength of the iron-scaled pangolin is above the luck realm, and only the characters of the imperial qi realm can match it, but Song Zhenxiao has not even counted the luck realm, which is tantamount to giving Qin Zhan great confidence.
In the past three months, neither Song Zhenxiao nor others, nor the prison captain have seen any more movement. Everything was surprisingly calm, and the mountain rain was coming, as if it was accumulating strength for the competition.
And today was the last day before the competition, Qin Zhan had planned to concentrate his mind to prepare for the competition, but Bai Sheng and Feng Beifeng insisted on cheering him on. Qin Zhan felt that tomorrow was unknown as life and death, so he followed the wishes of the two brothers.
After leaving the eastern mining area, Qin Zhan walked slowly to the direction of his cell. Because of the competition, mining has been stopped in the past few days. Therefore, prisoners wandering in the mountains can be seen everywhere. And every time Qin Zhan met someone on the road, all of them walked away respectfully as if they were seeing monsters and worshipping ghosts.
Song Zhenxiao's impression on all prisoners has long been inhuman, and he entrusted Song Zhenxiao's blessing, and now Qin Zhan can be compared with him. In this regard, Qin Zhan only smiled helplessly and ignored it.
After a slow walk, the slight wind rolling in the mountains lifted his spirits. Then Qin Zhan suddenly strode forward and walked to the cell.
As soon as he entered the cell, Qin Zhan suddenly became alert, and he suddenly found that there were three or four prison guards standing in the cell, and when he looked inside, the prison guard chief was sitting on a stone bed in the cell. And next to the prison captain, there were two people standing tremblingly, Bai Sheng and Feng Beifeng.
Qin Zhan couldn't figure out for a moment what the intentions of this old fox in front of him who had white hair and were already old, at that moment, his face was straight, and he shouted at him in a deep voice:
"The commander of the army is here, I don't know what you are doing here?"
Hearing Qin Zhan's voice, the prison captain was also overjoyed at the moment, and hurriedly replied with a smile:
"Hahaha, Brother Qin's cultivation is a thousand miles a day, not only is his strength amazing, but even his whereabouts are also erratic. The chief wanted to send someone to talk to Brother Qin about cultivating immortals, but he couldn't find it, so he had to visit him today. ”
The prison captain was complimentary, but Qin Zhan heard the temptation in his words, and couldn't help but curse a few more words in his heart.
From what the prison captain said, Qin Zhan immediately understood that the old man in front of him obviously didn't come on the surface, but secretly sent someone to look for him. And the reason for this may just be to know why I have improved my cultivation so quickly. Fortunately, every time Qin Zhan entered and exited the eastern mining area, he was walking on thin ice, and he didn't dare to be careless, so he didn't show his whereabouts.
"The prison captain is polite, thanks to the love of the commander, so that he doesn't have to do hard labor anymore. Therefore, I thought that in order to repay the kindness of the commander, only by devoting myself to penance could I not disappoint the commander's hard work, and hoped that the commander would forgive my sins. ”
Qin Zhan also talked about people when he saw people, and talked nonsense when he saw ghosts, and talked nonsense again.
"Oh, Brother Qin Zhan is so hardworking, it seems that the rumors of the next gram against Song Zhenxiao are really not a lie. That chief will give you a thorough understanding first, and tomorrow [Bi] Dou will have two major immortal sects sent here to select talented disciples. These two sects are Taishang Palace and Wuming Palace, among which Taishang Palace is one of the three major sects of the Xianmen Righteous Path, and the Qin brothers must grasp it well when the time comes. ”
The warden said with a particularly partial-looking look.
"Thank you for the love of the commander, the commander of the army is not thin, and he is grateful. It's just that if Song Zhenxiao learns about this matter, I don't know if it will make Song Zhenxiao dissatisfied. ”
After Qin Zhan got the situation, he deliberately asked in a deep voice.
"Eh, Brother Qin, don't worry, it's me who has the final say in this prison. As long as it is a talent, the director will treat everyone equally. Even if he Song Zhenxiao is capable, he still doesn't have the guts. It's just that I heard that Song Zhenxiao has been very prepared since he fought with you. Recently, I heard that Song Zhenxiao wanted to enter the realm of luck directly before the competition, so that he could easily defeat you. I don't know if Brother Qin is in this situation, but he is confident that he will win?"
The warden said meaningfully.
And Qin Zhan didn't believe it. At this time, the scene that appeared in Qin Zhan's heart was already that Song Zhenxiao had also learned everything about the competition from the mouth of the prison captain. And today's visit, maybe it was also hinted by Song Zhenxiao to come to listen to the tone. It's just that although everyone knows it, they don't want to put it on the table when the time comes. At that moment, Qin Zhan deliberately turned cold again, and replied with an oath:
"Oh, if it's really as the commander said, he Song Zhenxiao is so cowardly to me, then he is not far from death. Tomorrow's [competition] fight, in the next will be to win with all your might. When Zai Xia is released from prison, he will try to get my brother out of prison with him. Since the commander of the army can meet Zaixia, he wants to ask if he wants to release two more prisoners, I don't know how many spirit stones will be needed to do it. ”
Qin Zhan's words were said to be absolute. Despite the fact that the success or failure of things is beyond his control. In the end, Qin Zhan also turned the topic to the matter of being released from prison. If everything goes well, then Feng Beifeng and Bai Sheng's departure from the Dragon Prison will be the first major event he needs to take precautions.
"Haha, Ben Chang is really right. Brother Qin's righteousness is really admirable, and this chief will not deceive you. According to the rules, the spirit stones needed for the prisoner to be released on bail were determined by the guilt. As for Brother Qin's two brothers, it would probably take two hundred spirit stones to work. Since Brother Qin has this ambition, then when he is released from prison, he will have to work a little harder. ”
Hearing that Qin Zhan would actually set his sights on such a long term, the prison guard captain was suddenly taken aback. His gaze suddenly flashed with essence, and he was staring at Qin Zhan like never before, as if he was racking his brains to see Qin Zhan through.
Hearing this number, Qin Zhan immediately had a look of embarrassment on his face. But at the bottom of my heart, I am sad and happy, which is really complicated. I am happy that there are only two hundred spirit stones, which is simply not worth it for him who now has a spirit stone mine. But the sad thing is that I immediately feel that human life is really like a mustard, and it is not worth mentioning. Qin Zhan paused, and then pretended to smile bitterly again:
"I understand, thank you for your advice. ”
After that, both of them were insincere, but they knew each other's intentions. The prison captain was always knocking on Qin Zhan's reason for entering the country with his words, but Qin Zhan always talked about it left and right. Eventually, the warden finally lost his patience.
After the prison guard chief left in a daze, Bai Sheng and Feng Beifeng, who were originally taboo on the side, hurriedly surrounded Qin Zhan.
Feng Beifeng took the Nine Turns of the Great Returning Pill, but in just two days, the original broken leg had healed. It's just that Qin Zhan and Bai Sheng both felt that it was not appropriate to be too ostentatious, so until now, Feng Beifeng still pretended to be seriously injured and still pretended to be limping.
And Bai Sheng heard Qin Zhan mention the release from prison again in front of the prison captain, and now he felt that the matter of being released from prison was as real as if it were in front of him. Bai Sheng couldn't help but excitedly ask Qin Zhan again:
"Qin Zhan, is what you just said true? are you really planning to use spirit stones to get us out?"
"Hmm. When tomorrow's business is over, I'll go out and arrange everything, and I'll get both of you out of this prison at once. ”
Qin Zhan promised affirmatively.
"Haha...... , I can't imagine that I, Bai Sheng, will be able to get out of this prison in my lifetime, I really have eyes. ”
As soon as it was confirmed again, although he already understood the matter, Bai Sheng was still extremely excited again at this time.
But just when Bai Sheng was so excited that he couldn't help himself, Feng Beifeng on the side saw him like this, but he comforted him awkwardly:
"Alas, Bai Sheng, don't be too happy, all this will have to wait for Qin Zhan to win Song Zhenxiao tomorrow. If you fail, don't cry. ”
As soon as he heard Feng Beifeng's words, Qin Zhan was also provoked to laugh. He understood that Feng Beifeng wanted Bai Sheng not to expect too much, but when Feng Beifeng said this, it was more like he did it on purpose. Qin Zhan couldn't help but rise at the moment, and deliberately interjected:
"Yes, Bai Sheng. Even if you let you out, you can't spend all your time drinking. I still have a big revenge to avenge, and you will be busy when the time comes. ”
For the successive brushes and blows of the two, Bai Sheng, who was still immersed in the dream of getting out of prison, was not less interested in the slightest, but pursed his lips, looking like a dead pig was not afraid of boiling water, and retorted:
"Hey, you two crow's mouths, you can't help but splash me with cold water. As long as you don't mine here to death, you want to eat, I'm happy to do it. ”
At that moment, Bai Sheng's shameless words suddenly caused the three of them to laugh again.
Although the war is ahead and the danger is imminent, when it comes to the wonderful future that seems to be close at hand, although the three of them are all enthusiastic, they are also very indifferent to life and death.
