Yu Wu

Chapter 150 Shen Tang Phantom

"Report—!"

Inside the prefect's mansion, the national teacher raised his eyes faintly upon hearing the sound.He fingered the zither, and while stroking the strings, he said: "Come in."

The herald came in and knelt down to salute.

The national teacher asked casually: "How is the situation outside?"

"Chonghua attacked for the second time this morning. The north turret of the city fell, and the city guard camp has retreated to the North Market to strengthen the barrier."

"Will it survive tomorrow?"

The herald's forehead was covered with cold sweat, and he folded his fists and bowed his head: "The commander of the city guard said that he, he is incompetent, and can only do, try his best..."

"Then he is indeed quite incompetent." After the national teacher finished these words calmly, the sound of the zither gradually increased, and suddenly he raised his finger and shouted, "Lin Ling, call me here."

But seeing the flash of light, one of the nine eyes inlaid on the Guqin was completely opened following his command - that eye blinked, and the pupils revealed a faint green brilliance, and the light became brighter and brighter. It forced people to look at each other, and when the brilliance went out, there was already a shining scale armor hanging above the guqin.

The national teacher waved his wide sleeves, and the scale armor flew towards the herald, hovering in front of his eyes.

"Take it. This is Xuanwu Heavy Armor."

The herald was shocked!

Isn't Xuanwu heavy armor one of the miracles left over from the ancient times?That is the most unbreakable defensive weapon in the world!Why is it hidden in the national teacher's Jiumuqin?

Before the shock was over, the national teacher added: "One of them."

Herald: "..."

"Don't underestimate this area, it's enough to withstand the attack of a hundred thousand soldiers. Take it to our useless city guards - remember, the city guards can die, but the black armor can't be thrown away. If you turn around, there is no loss for this piece of scale armor."

After a pause, the strings of the zither rang loudly, and the national teacher smiled sweetly:

"I want all of you to be buried."

The herald hurriedly responded, holding the scale armor over his head with both hands, and stood back with both hands.So the ghostly prefect's mansion was left with only one person, the national teacher.

The sound of the zither is still gurgling like a deep spring, but in front of the national teacher, the former brilliance called "Jingchen" has turned into an indistinct appearance, it looks like a pure white young Dog, every hair is emitting a glimmer of luster.But the puppy was not conscious yet. It lay down on the soft felt blanket of the prefect's mansion, covering its eyes with its paws, lying motionless on its stomach.In the comfort of the sound of the piano, it looks very peaceful.

The national teacher raised his eyes, and the light from the spirit beast floated in his eyes. He whispered: "Jingchen, I have almost unlocked the seal they gave you. In one and a half days, I will be able to take you Leave here and go back to your hometown. You have to be obedient, don't give me any accidents again. Huh?"

The puppy's ears moved, and its eyelids opened slightly, but what was inside revealed a cold blue demon light that was completely different from its petite and cute appearance.

at the same time.

The north corner of the city.

The Liao Kingdom lost its halberd in this battle, and the Northern Army's Teng Snake Banner was already flying high among the ruined walls in the corner.Mo Xi's vanguard stationed in this corner of Daze City, and not far in front of them, the blue protective barrier created by the monks of the Liao Kingdom was rising heavily.

The scouts withdrew and reported the situation to the commander Mo Xi who was looking at the Liao Army's defenses, and then asked, "Mr. Mo, do you want to take advantage of the victory to attack again?"

Mo Xi frowned, folded his arms and looked at the ever-higher defensive barrier with a solemn expression.

"Where did they get the Xuanwu heavy armor..."

The scout was startled, and turned to look at the blue enchantment: "Basalt heavy armor?! Then, isn't that an artifact unique to our Junzihui?! And after Junzihui passed away, the Xuanwu heavy armor also lost its contractor, and it was scattered everywhere." Where did it go, why did it appear in the hands of Liao Guo now?"

Mo Xi pursed his lips, his eyes darkened: "The effectiveness of their enchantment is far from the true strength of the Xuanwu heavy armor. The heavy armor mastered by Liao Kingdom should not be complete, maybe only one or two pieces."

After a pause, he said again: "However, as long as it is Xuanwu heavy armor, even half a piece is enough for us."

"Send the order, the whole army first slows down the attack, stationed in the north of the city, and repairs on the spot."

"Yes!"

"In addition, all the commanders are invited to come to the main camp. I want to discuss with them the plan for the third siege."

The third siege was not so much a siege as a raid.

The place where Shen Tang sealed the Blood Demon Beast was in a lake to the north of Daze City. Chonghua's army had already torn a corner of Daze City. Entering from this corner, fast-moving monks could go to that lake to capture it. Explore.

However, this matter involves a lot of secrets, and it is inconvenient for Mo Xi to say so. He only told a hunting team selected by the king about the detection of the blood monster's remnant soul, and the rest of the monks arranged matters for other reasons as a response.

Gu Mang's mission to accompany the army is also being arranged during this operation.

"It's roughly like this." After everyone in the camp of the Chinese army left, Mo Xi and Gu Mang recounted the real situation in detail, "I sent the Muronglian and Mengze battalions to attack the main city of Daze, but the purpose is not The siege is dispersing the strength of the Liao Kingdom's army. The real important thing is that a team of ten elite spies must go to the lake in the north when we are fighting with the Liao Kingdom head-on, and capture the remnant souls of the blood monsters. "

As he said, he gave Gu Mang the rope to hunt down Sinan and the soul rope given by the king.

"As long as we bring back the remnant souls, it will not be so easy for the Liao Kingdom to reawaken the blood monsters. Therefore, in this battle, whether Daze City can be captured is not the most important thing. Take away the remnant soul of the blood demon in one step. Do you understand?"

Gu Mang tied the shining golden soul rope around his waist, patted his waist, and took Si Nan: "Don't worry, when did your elder brother Gu Mang fail in a mission?"

At this time, he hadn't put on his face covering yet, only wearing the tall and straight military uniform of the Northern Territory Army, with neat braids on his hair.There are gold ropes, bayonets, and masks around the waist, and thousands of receivers are tied on the wrists. The cross-neckline with blue and black edges is raised upright, covering all the slave rings under the abstinent and strict robe.

Looking at it now, it is as heroic and imposing as when it was many years ago.

Mo Xi looked at him for a while, then suddenly raised his hand to hug him, lowered his head, and kissed the top of his hair lightly: "Yes. You have never failed before."

After a pause, he said again: "But this time, you have to remember that no matter what, your own safety is the most important thing. If you can't support anything, you must call me."

He raised his hand, and through the overlapping collars of his military robes, he stroked Gu Mang's neck, the spot where they left each other's lotus seals in order to protect each other when they were young.

Mo Xi leaned against Gu Mang's forehead, and said in a low voice: "As long as you call me, I will come to you immediately. Remember?"

The former Gu Mang was Mo Xi's guardian, he was only willing to give Mo Xi the most comprehensive protection, but never wanted to share suffering with Mo Xi.So in the past, Gu Mang would only laugh, saying "It's okay", and "Your brother Gu Mang is the best".But now, Gu Mang blinked his warm blue eyes, and then he raised his head.

"Okay," he said, "I remember it all."

Without further ado, this round of repairs only took less than two hours. When the twilight merged and the setting sun was like blood, the northern border military orders fell—Chonghua launched the third siege.

This round came too fast, even though Liao Guo was prepared, he was still in a hurry.The [-] attacking monks led by Murong Lian acted as the vanguard to meet Liao Jun head-on this time, while Mo Xi's army collided with the defenders in the north of Daze City. Hongxia is more blazing.

Under the cover of this massive attack, ten elite spies, including Gu Mang, set out from the north and sneaked into the depths of Daze City with their own different routes like a gust of wind. That lake is swept away.

Daze Lake.

This is a vast and boundless lake, and the mountains on both sides are stretching and winding, with no end in sight.At this time, the sky was already very dark, and a ray of setting sun lay across the lake. In the evening sky, sand geese startled three or two, mocked and croaked and flew into the depths of the sunset.

Gu Mang, dressed in black and strong, flew to the top of an attic by the lake, and stood with his hands behind his back in the wind, staring at the color of the lake below the attic.

He was about to go down to the lake, but at this moment, his brain suddenly tightened, and then a burst of heartburning pain burst from the heart, extending continuously along the spine - Gu Mang let out a low cry of pain , covering his throbbing forehead all at once.

Why at this time...

He took a few deep breaths, and after a while, the pain eased slightly, but the dizziness did not decrease but increased.At this moment, the sound of fighting in the distance resounded, and the formal siege of the main force completely broke out.

Gu Mang knew that time couldn't be dragged on for long, so he blinked his eyes hard, trying to restore the clarity of his vision as soon as possible.

But when he raised his head and looked at the vast Daze Lake again, a vague phantom suddenly appeared in front of him.

Gu Mang was startled: "Shen, Shen Tang...?"

In the hallucination, he actually seemed to see Shen Tang standing in the middle of the lake, with huge waves surging behind him, huge waves surging to the sky.As the wind and thunder surged, Shen Tang rose up on the waves, his white clothes fluttering.

The man who looked like a banished immortal looked terrified, raised his hand and summoned a lyre, and raised his jaw slightly: "Hua Po Dark, listen. Your ambitions are over here, whether it is the mainland of Kyushu or Chonghua, It's never going to fall into your hands—you'll never get what you want."

Huashasha...

The flowers are dark.

These three words, like the deep meaning it contains, are like epiphyllum breaking through the deep darkness and blasting in Gu Mang's chaotic brain.Gu Mang only felt that this name seemed to have some kind of power, which made him feel a crazy bloodthirsty killing intent.

"You will always be that penniless disciple in the Cultivation Academy."

There seemed to be a voice in Gu Mang's heart shouting angrily: You are talking nonsense!You nonsense!I'll tear you apart until I kill you—what do I want? !Why do you judge my fate, you ridiculous... you... you incompetent!

Shen Tang said: "It's all over."

As soon as the fingertips fell, the piano sounded loudly.Gu Mang's heart was shocked, and he felt that the black devil's energy in his body seemed to burst out at this moment!

Seeing that the situation was about to get out of control in an instant, Gu Mang gritted his teeth and shouted: "Yong Ye, call me!"

The Mowu bayonet transformed into shape at the sound, Gu Mang took it, gritted his teeth and stabbed fiercely on the back of his left hand——

Blood is flowing!

The severe pain pulled him away from the quagmire of hallucinations, he took a sharp breath, and closed his eyes forcefully.When he raised his eyes again, Daze Lake was full of gloomy, clear waves, and Shen Tang's phantom disappeared.

"..." Panting, Gu Mang retracted Yong Ye, raised his hand to quickly treat the wound, and glanced at the sparkling lake with lingering fear.He didn't know why he could see the afterimage of the battle hundreds of years ago, but this was not the first time he saw Shen Tang in his mind.Because of what?

Thousands of thoughts came to my mind, but I had no time to think about it.

Gu Mang planned to tell Mo Xi about his strange condition after he went back, and the most urgent thing at this moment was to catch the remnant soul left by the blood demon beast in the lake.Thinking like this, he adjusted Sinan, injected spiritual power, and then faced into the vast lake.

"Guide the way." Sinan got the order and started to turn crazily. After about half a cup of tea, the wicker-shaped leaves gradually slowed down, little by little, and finally stopped still.

Gu Mang froze for a moment.

Guidance Sinan did not point to the lake as His Majesty said, but directly faced the direction where Gu Mang was standing!Gu Mang was startled, and looked back, but saw the houses behind him like grains of grain, and this finger soul Sinan actually pointed directly at the core of the hinterland of Daze City.

"……broken?"

Gu Mang adjusted his standing position and shook Simon again.As expected, Sinan was trembling and hesitating, not knowing where to guide him.

"Where is that wisp of blood demon remnant soul in the lake?" After asking two or three times like this, Sinan Biaoye turned around unsteadily, but finally pointed to the location in Daze City.

Gu Mang fell silent, he put Sinan away and stroked his chin.

According to Jun, the remnant soul of the blood monster sank in the depths of Daze Lake. The other spies, Sinan, didn't know how to reveal it, but his insisted on guiding it to the inside of the city. It couldn't be a coincidence.

Could it be...

He groaned in his heart.

Could it be that the soul of the Blood Demon Beast has been successfully captured by Liao Kingdom in just a few days, and it is trapped somewhere in the city at this moment? !
