Chapter 599: The Great War Begins
Time flies, two years have passed in a blink of an eye, everyone in Yunyang City is busy with their own affairs, ready to participate in the round battle at any time, from time to time there are seriously injured monks on the front line to bring back the information of the two battles, with the increasing number of wounded, the battle situation is getting tighter and tighter, Lu Tong is also ready to go out at any time.
On this day, in the Underworld Tower, Lu Tong was cultivating in front of an ice cube, and suddenly Gu Yuan came to visit.
"Deacon Lu, Lord Xun Qianli, Lord Xiao Helm, and Deputy Helmsman Lei jointly invite you to discuss in the main hall of the rudder, saying that it is time for the round battle, and there are a lot of combat monks recruited by the sect this time, as if the time for the decisive battle has come. After Lu Tong opened the door, Xu Guyuan said to him respectfully.
Glancing back at Ling He in the ice cube, Lu Tong said to Xue Guyuan: "Master Guyuan, the safety of the crane will depend on you in the future." ”
"Deacon Lu, rest assured, Ling He is the descendant of the Immortal Floating Ancestor, and he is also my descendant, and we will not let him have any accidents. Hearing what Sha Guyuan said, Lu Tong arched his hand, then closed the door, and said to Sha Guyuan: "Landlord, please." ”
Out of the Underworld Tower, it didn't take long for the two of them to come to the main hall of the Yunyang rudder.
At this time, in the main hall of the meeting, all the elders, pavilion masters, building owners, and shili leaders of the various shili of Yunyang branch rudder all came here, a famous Yuanying monk sat at the bottom, Wu Chenyang and Xiao Kong sat side by side at the top, and there was an empty seat next to it, Lei Fusheng and the others sat slightly lower.
Seeing Lu Tong coming, Xun Qianli motioned to the chair next to him and said to Lu Tong, "Deacon Lu." I'm waiting for you, come and sit down. ”
At this time, Lu Tong was already the reserve deacon of the Immortal Shadow Sect's Elite Hall, with an elite order, strictly speaking, his status was on par with Xun Qianli, but because of Lu Tong's resignation when the meeting was held before, he only sat on Xun Qianli's side.
Lu Tong came to the chair and gestured to Xun Qianli and Xiao Kong, his face calm. Quite modestly said what was most often said in previous meetings. It is also likely to be the only sentence: "Lord Xun, Lord Xiao Helm, if you have any orders, Lu will fully cooperate." ”
Heard Lu Tong say this. Xiao Kong and Xun Qianli both smiled helplessly.
Although Lu Tong became the reserve deacon of the Elite Hall. But there was no shelf at all. And he only knows how to cultivate blindly, and he doesn't ask anything about Yunyang's rudder at all, and he rarely participates in such meetings during the two years. Even if he participated, it was just such a kind word, and the only few shots were to treat several Yuanying monks who were seriously injured from the front line and belonged to the Yunyang rudder.
But even so, everyone present was full of respect for Lu Tong, not to mention the glorious face that Lu Tong won for Yunyang Rudder by killing Zhao Shugai, that is, the few Yuanying monks he rescued in the past two years, but they were all the top Liliang of each Shili present, after Lu Tong's treatment, the original serious injury was restored in a short period of time, how could this not make them grateful to Dade?
"As you all know, it's time for the round of battles again. Seeing Lu Tong sitting there calmly, Xun Qianli immediately stood up and said a word.
After everyone fell silent, Xun Qianli continued: "Through various means, everyone should know that the battle between us and the Yuan Ying Sect in Baishi County has reached a critical moment, this round of battle, the sect not only extracted disciples from each rudder to fight, but also transferred a large number of people from the various halls of the Immortal Shadow Sect and various foreign shili to the front line, preparing to start a decisive battle with the Yuan Ying Sect, and has decided the ownership of a large number of areas in Baishi County. ”
"At this critical moment, as a monk of the Immortal Shadow Sect of Xiandu County, we have the important responsibility of defending our family and protecting the country and expanding our territory, so I won't say much else, your right to fight today should be for the sake of his descendants to have more cultivation resources and more opportunities to advance to the next level!"
"Next, please ask Lord Xiao Kong to announce the list of monks in this round battle. ”
After finishing speaking, Xun Qianli glanced at Lu Tong and then sat down.
For Xun Qianli's straightforward words, Lu Tong is more convinced, Xiuzhen is fighting for resources, the strength is stronger, and the territory occupied is vast, and the monks in this shili have more opportunities to take a few more steps on the road of Xiuzhen, which is also a major reason why the monks are willing to participate in the war.
After Xun Qianli finished speaking, Xiao Kong stood up with a cold face, bowed his hand to each monk present, and then threw a jade slip into the air of the main hall, volleying a little, a huge light curtain instantly unfolded, and the names of Yunyang rudder monks appeared on the light curtain.
Looking around at all the monks present, Xiao Kong pointed to the light curtain and said to everyone present: "Fellow Daoists, I won't say much about the helmsman, the names of the people listed on this are the ones who should fight this time, if it doesn't make sense, tomorrow the city gate of Yunyang City will gather and go to the front line together, if there is any objection, now put it forward on the spot." ”
Taking the opportunity of Xiao Kong to speak, Lu Tong also looked at the names on it, himself, Xiao Kong, Lei Fusheng, Chu Xiong and others were all on it, and with a slight total, this time the Yunyang rudder sent a total of nineteen Yuan Infant Stage monks of different ranks, and there were more than two hundred and thirty Jiedan monks, and the number of monks in the foundation building period and the Qi cultivation period was even more.
"It seems that there is really going to be a decisive battle with the Yuan Ying Sect. Seeing such a list, Lu Tong also said secretly in his heart.
The names of the people on the list have almost taken out most of the existing monks of the Yunyang Branch, leaving only a small number of monks stationed in Yunyang City, which is much more than the normal round of battles before, and as far as Lu Tong knows, there are not many monks withdrawn this time, and many monks will continue to stay in Baishi County to fight.
"Helmsman, we have no opinion on this list, we just want to ask the Helmsman to recruit some more people from our Tianfu Pavilion. After everyone read the list, Cheng Hong, the current pavilion master of Tianfu Pavilion, stood up and said a word to Xiao Kong, and several other pavilion masters also echoed a few words, all hoping to dispatch more monks within their Shili range.
"No, this list is the result of many discussions, your Tianfu Pavilion has already killed many monks in the previous round of battles, you can't draw one more, besides, before the last batch of some of the participating monks rush back, Yunyang City needs those monks who stayed behind to assist Lord Xun Qianli in garrisoning. After Cheng Hong and the others finished speaking, Xiao Kong categorically rejected the proposal.
Seeing Xiao Kong's resolute attitude, everyone no longer proposed and accepted the list one after another.
Regarding this situation, Lu Tong just smiled slightly, and secretly said in his heart: "It seems that the benefits brought by war are far higher than the threat of death!"
At this point, Lu Tong once heard Lei Fusheng say that at the time of the first round of battle, the lords of each attic wanted to recruit as little shili as possible on their side, but looking at the monks who came back alive from the battlefield, their worth had increased several times, and the treasures were all changed, and everyone was greedy.
Soon everyone understood, it turned out that the Immortal Shadow Sect stipulated that all the income of the monks in the war should be owned by themselves, and the sect did not charge the slightest, and there was also a clear reward charter, since then, participating in the round war has become the wish of many monks, of course, there are also some timid monks who are unwilling to participate in the war, but this is only a very small part, participating in the war, earning benefits, and improving cultivation have become the main purpose of many monks, since then, the Immortal Shadow Sect does not need to do any pre-war mobilization, and it is almost easy to gather monks to participate in the war.
Only this time there were far more than the last, but even so, there were still many monks who were disappointed that they were no longer on the list.
"Deacon Lu, do you have anything else to say?" After deciding on the participants, Xiao Kong asked Lu Tong for another sentence.
"Hehe, everything is according to Lord Xiao's words, we will gather outside Yunyang City tomorrow. He smiled at Xiao Kong, and then looked at Xun Qianli, who was also smiling, and Lu Tong said casually.
After Lu Tong finished speaking, Xun Qianli stood up again, glanced at everyone with a solemn face, and said loudly: "Okay, fellow Daoists, everyone go back and prepare a little, we will gather outside Yunyang City tomorrow morning, go to the front line, and kill the Yuanming monk." ”
After Xun Qianli said, everyone stood up together and chanted together: "Go to the front line, kill Yuan Ming, go to the front line, kill Yuan Ming......" (to be continued......)
