One hundred and seventeen, the Black Lantern King

Zhu Lingwu glanced at the two scouts, and then held the little white fox on the stone bench in the Xuan Hall.

"Tell me what you see! As long as you can satisfy me, I will naturally reward you, I heard, you see that the situation is a little bad, right?"

Zhu Lingwu asked slowly, although he was very anxious about the situation outside, he still maintained a bit of the demeanor of a scholar on his face.

The two scouts were not young, one was about forty years old, the other was about thirty-four or five, and now the forty-something scout bowed and saluted Zhu Lingwu.

"Son, my two brothers, with our men, were ordered to investigate the situation of the chaotic people three days ago, and they have basically figured out the origin of the chaotic people. This group of rebels came from the west, and their banner was Black Lantern, which should be the subordinates of Jiao Huarong, the self-proclaimed King of Black Lanterns!"

Zhu Lingwu heard him talk about the king, and he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, it seems that the chaotic people who came this time are just a rabble, not the elite demon army commanded by those demon disciples.

So Zhu Lingwu smiled slightly and asked, "Black Cage King, hehe, this name is a bit strange, okay, don't be polite, you can tell me what his origin is!"

Zhu Lingwu believed in the abilities of these two scouts, who were originally the leaders of an adventurous team.

It's just that the life of the adventure group is not easy to mix now, and in the face of the chaos in the world, their small group of adventurers can't play much role, so they took their team and family members to the Zhu family in Chilong Mansion to flee privately.

Now that they have found out the origin of those rioters, then they must know what the origin of the so-called Black Cage King is.

Sure enough, the scout in his forties followed and said, "Master Hui, this Black Cage King was originally a thief in the northern mountain Zhifu of Chong'an Kingdom, and he just nested in the barren mountains and mountains, and occasionally came out to rob and kill business travelers. His name in the rivers and lakes is not big, but I didn't expect him to be a remnant of the Demon Gate!"

"A year ago, the demons of Yiping Mansion gathered, and this person was also one of the demons who went to the so-called Demon Gate, and since then, they have triggered the rebellion of the chaotic people in Baishui Township, Yiping Mansion, and it is also the beginning of the chaos in our Chong'an Country. Originally, there were only occasional cases of assassination and robbery in various parts of the country, but since the rebellion of the rebellious people occurred in Baishui Township, Yiping Prefecture, the disaster of the rebellious people has spread from there to the surrounding areas, which is why there is today's catastrophe. ”

"And the king of the black cage, who originally called himself the old demon of the black light, after the demons of Yiping Mansion raised troops, he led a wave of chaotic people to the south, and returned to the Shanzhi Mansion where he was originally located, relying on dozens of bandits around him as the foundation for the army, but he took advantage of this chaos to get the current momentum. ”

"This demon has a strange magic weapon black lantern around him, which can release demonic energy and devour people, and can also turn the opponent into his lamp slave, among the demons who gather people to rebel today, he is also regarded as the number one person, and now he has more than 300,000 chaotic people under his name, and has erected the black lantern flag, known as the king of black cages, and can make many little dolls cry in the south of Chong'an country!"

When this scout said this, he seemed to feel that he had said a little too much, so he slowed down for a while, peeked at Zhu Lingwu's expression, and then said, "Now there are four major rebels in Chong'an country, and this black cage king Jiao Huarong is one of them. This seems to be the strategy set by the demons of Yiping Mansion at the beginning, this black cage king with his black lantern army, at first did not dare to raid the big city of Fu County, only wandered in the countryside, but also used this to coerce many villagers, and then he coerced the chaotic people, and actually laid a black fort in Shanzhi Mansion. ”

"This demon is based on this, and his strength has been greatly developed, but after that, this demon also suffered a catastrophe, and was surrounded and suppressed by more than 10,000 soldiers mobilized by the Shanzhi Mansion, and it is said that the immortal master in the Shanzhi Mansion also helped the soldiers to deal with the black lantern army of the devil. The falling flowers and flowing water of this demon beating, fled all the way to Tongjiang Mansion next to Shanzhi Mansion, but I don't know where the demon of the Demon Dao came from, and used the Demon Dao Demon Technique to help him kill the immortal master of the Shanzhi Mansion, and then ......"

"Okay, okay! Well, to put it mildly, what you mean is that the one who has entered our Chilong Mansion now is the chaotic people under the Black Cage King, and now he has more than 300,000 chaotic people, right!

Zhu Lingwu saw that this scout had a detailed description of the Black Cage King, like a story, but he also interrupted his words.

Now it sounds like this Black Cage King has a black lantern-shaped magic weapon, and he may also be a Demon Dao Qi Refiner level figure.

But he shouldn't be a high-level cultivator of the Demon Dao, if he really has the strength of a realm like an immortal cultivator after building a foundation, how can he be attached to the position of power in the mortal world, and it's too late to be busy cultivating all day long.

And the so-called immortal master of Shanzhi Mansion should be an immortal cultivator after building the foundation, so he can easily suppress the magic skills of the black cage king, but this black cage king should also hide the high-level monks of the demon path to protect each other secretly.

Later, it was these high-level cultivators of the Demon Dao who stepped in and helped this Black Cage King survive the crisis, giving him the prestige and status of the Grass Head King of the Troubled People now.

However, since this Black Cage King was just a pawn released by the Demon Dao Sect and attracted the attention of the officials of Chong'an Kingdom and those other sects outside the world, Zhu Lingwu didn't want to know too much about the experience of this Black Cage King.

Now those demon sects that are disturbing the situation in the world do not dare to officially jump out against the immortal cultivation sect of Chong'an Kingdom, I think it won't be long before such a budding bird will be exterminated by the immortal cultivation sect of Chong'an Kingdom.

The only thing to worry about is how long it will take for them to be exterminated, and whether it will have any impact on Zhu's Wubao in the process.

Especially now that they dare to come to Chilong Mansion to cause trouble, this should have touched the root of Chong'an Country, and it is simply a self-defeating move.

As for what the Demon Dao Sect would do in secret, it was not something that Zhu Lingwu could consider.

"This, to be honest, in just a few days, we can't find out much, only know that his personal guard, that is, his black light slave, is said to have three or four hundred people. In addition, there are a total of six famous generals under him, and they are all masters of cultivating demonic skills, known as the six demon generals of the Black Lantern Army! Well, they are called the Great Bull Demon Tang Hua Niu, the Nine Shadows Yaksha Rao Shufeng, the Black Tiger Demon Tang Tian, the White Flower Snake Diao Peng, the Grass Picking Ghost Kou Cang, and the Stone Heart Monster Gou Lei, all of them are all new Demon Dao evil people, and they each have some strange Demon Dao methods. As for the demon path demon that Gongzi Ye said, I really can't find out at the lower level!"

After all, this scout has only been out to investigate for a few days, and a lot of news is also hearsay, so it is not bad to be able to find out a few famous generals under the Black Cage King.

"Oh, do you know what skills each of these six people has? Now that some of them have arrived in Chilong Mansion?"

Zhu Lingwu heard him report these names, and they were all nicknames in the rivers and lakes, and they should not even be considered demonic qi refiners, at most they were ordinary people who began to cultivate demonic skills.

"Well, this, it's not very clear, oh, I just heard that the strong bull demon, good at using two long knives, extremely powerful, one person can defeat the power of a hundred people, that Nine Shadows Yaksha, is the military advisor under the Black Cage King, extremely vicious and vicious, and those characters are not very well known! Now the Black Lantern Army has entered our Chilong Mansion's vanguard soldiers and horses, and there is no banner of these six demon generals. This time it was the forward general of the Black Lantern Army, under the banner of Shang Zi, we sent someone to infiltrate the chaotic people's army, and found out that this forward general is named Shang Yi, nicknamed Flower Leopard!"

The scout was a little hesitant, but he was careful, and it sounded like he had sent his men to infiltrate the so-called Black Lantern Vanguard.

"Flower Leopard? Shangyi? Hehe, by the way, then can you find out, what corresponding actions have we made in Chilong Mansion, and have we begun to deploy soldiers and horses from various counties to deal with it?"

Zhu Lingwu digested the news he heard in his mind, and then asked, now it seems that he doesn't have to worry too much about his safety for the time being.

Chilong Mansion is the most important place in Chong'an Kingdom, so there are more soldiers and horses stationed here than other prefectures and counties, and Chilong Mansion is also a member of the royal family of Chong'an Kingdom.

I don't know if this arrangement is because the ancestral land of the Zhu family is in Chilong Mansion, maybe part of this arrangement of soldiers and horses is to guard against the Zhu family.

And now the soldiers and horses of Chilong Mansion, plus the private soldiers raised by the various scholars in the prefecture and county, add up to a lot, these soldiers and horses are not a rabble, especially the private soldiers raised by some scholars, they are no longer simple soldiers, they can be regarded as Taoist soldiers who combine the power of magic.

And although the Black Lantern Army claims to have more than 300,000 people, the elite soldiers who can fight may be only 10,000, and they are all ordinary mortal soldiers.

No matter how many rabbles there are, in the context of such a fairy shijie, it has no effect at all, just like in the current social war, the number of soldiers is no longer the key to determining the outcome of the war.

The key lies in the kind of competition between qi refiners and monks that surpass the abilities of mortals......
