Chapter 272: The Barren Mountain is Difficult to Subdue Demons, and the Fierce General Guards the Pass and Dies(1)
The Western Wilderness, at the junction with Southern Xinjiang.
Feather sat the black dragon, standing on the black-scorched city wall.
Li Xi, who had his armor ready, held the reins and stood in front of the black dragon.
Peel Feather raised his head slightly, and white snowflakes fell from his face.
He opened his mouth, looked regretful, and sighed, "I didn't expect it." ”
The king did not come. ”
Hearing this, Li Xi, who was standing in front of the black dragon, pursed his lips and said with a complicated face: "The leader is not coming." ”
"The 70,000 brutes who supported us are already on their way. ”
"The brutes come or don't come. ”
Peel Feather shook his head with an indifferent expression.
"It doesn't matter, as long as the pass is still in the hands of our army, the barbarians in southern Xinjiang will not be able to enter the Western Wilderness. ”
"And the clouds and the snow. ”
Feather raised her head and looked at the white clouds in the sky.
White snow fell on his face.
"The king has set out and gone to Sewai. ”
"The distance between the outside of the plug and this place is more than a million miles. ”
"The king and I are a million miles apart!"
Feeling the slightest coolness from the snow to his face, he peeled off the feathers and curled the corners of his mouth, and a happy smile appeared on his face.
He smiled and stretched out his right hand, spreading it palm upwards.
He felt the snow and ice falling on the palm of his hand, and the smile on his face widened.
"What a powerful cultivation this is. ”
"In the southern part of Xinjiang, in front of my king, what is it?"
Hearing this, Li Xi smiled and nodded.
"Cover the sky with clouds and turn rain into snow. ”
"I'm afraid it's only the Dao Ancestor back then. has such a strong ability. ”
"This snow, the heart of our army can be described as a great prosperity. ”
"Coupled with the dangerous passes, in a short period of time, with the existing soldiers and horses in our hands, it is enough to resist the invasion of southern Xinjiang. ”
"Humph!"
Peel Feather withdrew his right hand, snorted coldly, and looked at the continuous camp tent outside the pass that followed the low terrain.
"My king's cultivation is already so high, these guys still haven't left?"
"It's none other than these barbarians. Just a pawn of those cultivators?"
"The intention of those cultivators is to rely on these barbarians to cause trouble in my Western Wilderness?"
Peel Feather gritted his teeth and shouted: "Really, I can't do it!!"
"yes. ”
Hearing this, Li Xi nodded.
He tightened the reins in his hand hard, and his face suddenly looked a little hideous.
"These brutes are not weak in combat, in the recent series of offensive and defensive battles, although you and I tried our best to rush forward, we can only barely maintain the situation of not losing the pass. ”
"And our soldiers. But because of this, the loss is extremely heavy. ”
"General. ”
"When the reinforcements arrive, our army will gather more than 130,000 soldiers and horses. ”
"What should I do?"
Hear the words. Peel Feather put away the smile on his face, and said with a cold face: "In order to resist the invading barbarians, we have given up four passes in a row. ”
"In order to defend this place, we will fight it for days. More than 40,000 elites were killed and wounded. ”
"The number of casualties among the barbarians has not exceeded more than 10,000. ”
"I can't swallow this breath!!"
Feather raised her right hand. Straighten out the armor that covers your head.
His voice grew higher and higher.
His tone became more and more steady.
"After the reinforcements arrive, I will rest for a day, and I will lead the whole army out of the customs to meet the barbarians in southern Xinjiang. ”
"Pledge to repel it, vow to rout it!"
"Otherwise. ”
"How do I deal with the heroic spirits of the fallen soldiers!?and how do I deal with the promise I made to the king!?"
Li Xi let go of the reins of the horse, and after taking a few steps forward, he turned to face the feathers sitting on the horse's back.
Li Xi clasped his fists in his hands towards Peel Feather and bowed his head.
General Li Xi accompanied the general and followed the general to urge the enemy into battle. ”
"No matter what the odds are, we will never back down!"
Outside the plug, there is a lonely mountain covered with golden lotus flowers and only more than 150 meters above sea level.
Yougen put his hands behind his back and looked at the countless golden lotuses that grew on the mountain and almost covered the entire ground, his face was cold and expressionless.
White clouds appeared in the sky above him.
The white snow fell on the mountain where the golden lotus grew.
The golden color of the lotus flowers gradually faded in the flying snow, turning into a snow white that was close to transparent.
The snow-white lotus flower withers quickly.
From petals to stamens, to stems, to roots.
Countless lotus flowers, one by one, withered and withered, turning into rotten branches and leaves, covering the moist mud soil on the mountain.
There was a withered lotus petal that covered the instep of the legs.
Yougen lifted his leg and stepped forward, shaking off the rotten lotus petals.
He raised his hands, and a pale golden glow floated between them.
In the brilliance, it is overflowing with endless, but chaotic and mixed breath.
"Where?"
"Where are you?"
There is a root that moves and jumps between the cliffs like an antelope flower deer, and quickly walks through the shattered mountain.
He carefully searched the entire mountain, sometimes stopping to take in his surroundings.
Although only half of the mountain has collapsed, the terrain has changed beyond recognition.
Cliffs, strange rocks and steep slopes, coupled with the dense growth of golden lotus, guide zhì to a large area of the mountain is now exposed.
As far as the eye can see, it is all a bare brown and yellow earth color, but other than that, it seems that there is nothing.
But what the roots are looking for is what is hidden under the brown loess color.
Brahma, looking for it for three whole years, but finding nothing.
There is a root that is not Brahma, he does not need to look for three years.
for in his hand there is something that has been given to him without roots.
Therefore, when Arigen came to the middle of the mountain, on a cliff protruding from the mountain, it was natural to stop.
He knew that what he was looking for was around here.
The chaotic flow of breath in the palms of his hands was much more intense than it was elsewhere.
Is it here?
"Is it here?"
One looked around at the mountain wall, countless withered lotus petals and stems.
He frowned slightly, a puzzled look on his face.
He walked slowly along the steep mountain wall, feeling the breath in his hands.
"He's been looking for it. ”
"Is there a blind spot that even he can't notice?"
"Senior brother. ”
"Where's the thing?"
Yougen sighed and stopped on the cliff face.
His hands were clenched tightly together, and his face looked a little gloomy.
Suddenly, there was a familiar tremor in the earth beneath his feet.
A lingering breath passed through the thick layer of soil to the soles of his feet.
He was stunned for a moment, then lowered his head to look at his feet.
He saw the shaking ground, and the look of doubt on his face disappeared.
He flew off the ground and hovered in mid-air.
There was a rumbling sound in the entire cliff beneath his feet.
Broken rocks and mountains covered with rotten leaves fell.
The entire cliff has been stripped from the mountain. (To be continued......)
