Wandao long distance

A battlefield outside the territory, in a war zone.

This is a battle zone similar to the Vanguard War, dominated by the fifth-grade. Here, two fifth-grades occupy the dominant position.

Zhong Minglou, who is the commander of the war zone, and Fan Lu, another fifth-level wizard, is the leader of the killing team.

"Bu Ren, this is all the information we have now." Fan Lu transmitted the large amount of information he had compiled to Zhong Minglou through the 'Alliance'.

Fanlu is a dancer, with a delicate and elegant appearance, a tall and slender figure. She is a beauty in every aspect, and judging from the capable and agile posture of the other party, she can handle these things with ease, which is completely unlike her. He is the person with the responsibility of 'Palm Killing'.

However, she was still wearing a long skirt commonly worn by dancing girls, with the slit reaching her thighs, adding a bit of charm to her delicacy.

However, all this is of no use because Zhong Minglou is blind.

Zhong Minglou, who was blindfolded, could not see anything, but having reached the fifth level, he could already pretend that he could see. He slightly nodded at Fan Lu and said, "Thank you for your hard work... Zhang Lu obviously doesn't need it. I feel so guilty for having done so much but still tired you out.”

"It doesn't matter, it's all just to be able to resist humanity. Rather, I'm lucky to be able to follow Divination." Fan Lu smiled and didn't care.

She really thought so from the bottom of her heart, because it was so easy to do things with Zhong Minglou.

Although it is necessary to serve as a commander at the same time and undertake some of the paperwork and data collection work that a command should have, after taking over these tasks, Zhongming Tower can play a huge role.

He almost predicted the future in this war, anticipated every detail of the war, made arrangements in advance, and achieved a 'complete victory'.

That's right, in this war zone controlled by Zhong Minglou, Wu Dao's record was a complete victory. The opponent's humane general suffered a total defeat, and finally had to withdraw in despair and was replaced by a seasoned general who was as good as a tortoise shell.

Although it is a bit disrespectful to say it is a turtle shell, it is indeed very appropriate. In the current confrontation situation, the other party is strictly guarding and defending, so that Zhong Minglou cannot figure out any flaws.

Zhong Minglou couldn't find any flaws, which shows that at the fifth level, the opponent has indeed achieved no flaws and perfect defense.

Therefore, this war zone can be said to be very peaceful, so peaceful that ordinary people almost forget that they are at war. Except for daily border defense, normal production has almost resumed.

In fact, this is already very good. If we can keep it like this and delay a large number of humanitarian troops to defend here, then it will be enough.

Moreover, Fanlu also knew that for Zhong Minglou, this situation seemed to be exactly what he wanted.

"By the way, there is another not-so-good news this time. The fortune teller should already know it, right? With your ability, you might know it earlier than me." Fan Lu said.

"Yes, I already know. It's a trivial matter. To be honest, you don't need to mention it specifically." Zhong Minglu smiled, as gentle as ever. Although he couldn't see his eyes, he could still imagine his eyes.

"Is it a trivial matter? If it is really a trivial matter, why did the fortune teller know about it in advance?" Fan Lu asked in return.

This left Zhong Minglou speechless for a moment, not knowing what to say.

However, he just shook his head: "Don't worry, this matter will not interfere with the war."

"I believe this, it's just... that's all, people have their own sense of propriety, so I won't say more and say goodbye." Fan Lu shook his head and then left.

After all, she is the captain of the Palm Killer, and she still has many, many things to do outside. Although the workload has been greatly reduced because of Zhong Minglou, she still has it.

As for what she just said to Zhong Minglou, it is already public news. Many people know about it, so she specifically mentioned it to Zhong Minglou.

Speaking of which, it's just a trivial matter. Many years ago, Zhong Minglou had a lover, but... the other person was a humane commoner.

That happened a long, long time ago. At that time, Zhong Minglou was still a student. He once went to Chang'an to study abroad and studied in Taixue. In order to take care of him, a young master named Li Qi hired a humane civilian called "Lan Yanlong" works as a caregiver for Zhongming Tower.

This nurse worked as a caregiver for a long time, and later, the two of them even got together.

However, after the war between humans and witches broke out, Zhong Minglou clearly asked the other party's opinion and wanted to ask her if she was willing to leave the human world and be with Zhong Minglou.

The answer was no.

So Zhong Minglou left Taixue and returned to Wushen Mountain. There was no contact with him again after that. However, thousands of years later, perhaps by coincidence, Zhong Minglou met him again on this battlefield.

The other party appeared on the battlefield as a logistics nurse, responsible for taking care of the wounded.

Of course, this encounter was in the form of a corpse. In a command operation, Zhong Minglou used clear and capable command and quick and effective attacks to quickly destroy the fortress of humanity.

Zhong Minglou is the young master of Wushen Mountain. He is now in the fifth rank. He is the commander of the war zone. He has dozens of world groups under his command. He commands billions of worlds and confronts humane generals head-on, and wins a complete victory.

Such a record, so dazzling, so proud, even the attempt to evacuate Humanity completely failed and was eventually wiped out.

When cleaning up the battlefield and sorting out the corpses, Lan Yanlong was discovered.

Zhong Minglu watched his Palm Killing Captain leave. To be honest, he was very grateful to him. If the other party hadn't taken the initiative to take on a lot of paperwork that was difficult for him to handle and gave him a headache just looking at it, he wouldn't have been able to achieve the same results as he does now. .

only……

Zhong Minglou knew that there must be a large number of casualties behind the scenes. Now it was just an acquaintance who was injured or killed, an acquaintance from many years ago.

However, this made him sigh.

He seemed to understand something from it.

He looked at the world in the distance. In fact, Lan Yanlong was really not that important to him. What happened when he was young, not to mention that they had already separated due to different opinions.

But after Lan Yanlong's body was examined, a strange emotion still arose in his heart.

He clearly knew that for everyone involved in the war, facing death was inevitable. Fortunately for those in high positions, although there were no fifth-grade casualties, the casualty rate was actually not high.

But for ordinary people who participate in the war, war is an unbearable pain no matter what, and it is a terrifying monster that cannot be understood and controlled.

This monster will continue to devour life and spit out death, eventually destroying everything before it ends.

However, he is now part of this monster and he cannot escape.

Zhong Minglou suddenly realized that... he was too immature for dangerous divination. Sometimes the real danger is never the cliffs that are clear at a glance, nor the bottomless abyss, but what looks beautiful from a distance, and there is an as if there is no path under your feet, winding and twisting to that place. The peak of beauty that seems like a mirage.

The prospect of victory in the war is that ‘mirage’.

The process of the war is that seemingly harmless winding road.

Only when you actually step on it will you realize the danger.

When watching the victory of witchcraft, war is a refreshing article. The blood and tears belong to the enemy, and the happiness belongs to oneself. The so-called war is just when I read the newspaper, I read one good news after another, and even read it. If you are bored, just skip it.

But when you fight, you will find that there is actually no difference between the two sides. Regardless of victory or defeat, the feelings of both sides are actually the same, and no one will feel pain.

Zhong Minglu sighed. He actually didn't have much memory of Lan Yanlong. After all, those decades of memory were nothing compared to his thousands of years of life.

But this sudden killing of an acquaintance with his own hands still made him feel what the grassroots soldiers felt.

In fact, he had never felt anything before. Zhong Minglou has always been a very slow person. He has a natural ability to predict, so he was selected by the great divination to become a disciple. This also caused a gap between him and ordinary people since he was a child. He was born with His unique personality and blindness make him incompatible with ordinary people.

Lan Yanlong was the first to break this barrier, but later they separated due to Taoist disputes.

Now this feeling came over him, causing him to make recent changes.

Yes, the current humane turtle shell was actually arranged by him.

He built himself up as an 'invincible' character so that humanity would not start a war without permission, at least in his own war zone, without so much intensity.

All of these are actually the same as playing cards. The cards that really lose money are never completely bad cards. Many times they are good cards that "look" pretty good.

As long as you let the other party retreat when faced with difficulties, you can naturally avoid many fearless sacrifices.

This is the goal that Zhong Minglou is striving for at this stage.

It would be bad if it was like the 'Vanguard Battle' that was promoted as a victory in the early stage.

The Vanguard Battle was fought by his friend Li Qi. The intensity of the battle report of that battle made Zhong Minglou frown. If he had come, he would never have started the blood sacrifice like Li Qi and forcibly opened it.

While thinking about this, Zhong Minglou suddenly received a request from the ‘Alliance’.

Someone is coming to visit.

Or an old friend he just thought of.

Li Qi.

It's really what you say.

He agreed to the request.

Then the next moment, Li Qi appeared in front of him.

"Hey, Minglou." Li Qi smiled and sat next to Zhong Minglou.

"Li Qi, you seem to have won another battle recently, right? You're awesome, you've already been in charge of two war zones." Zhong Minglou didn't mean to be unfamiliar, but treated Li Qi like an old friend as always.

They are indeed old friends. After all, they have maintained communication and friendship since they were young and have maintained it to this day.

"What's so great about it? It's a total loss." Li Qi shook his head.

"...Well, listening to what you said, you also feel the futility of this war, right?" Zhong Minglou was keenly aware of the meaning of Li Qi's words.

Li Qi shook his head, took out a few plates of snacks, and put them on the table: "War is essentially just an extension of the Taoist struggle. The war will not end until the Taoist struggle ends. You also know that the existence of a first-class person has a great impact on the strength of both sides. What a big change in balance, if the way of witchcraft is achieved, the endless expansion of humanity outside the territory will probably stop."

Zhong Minglu naturally picked up a piece of snacks and took a bite first: "That's true, but it doesn't stop me from thinking that this war should not be fought, and you are here for this reason, too. This war is of no use to anyone. The good thing is that you have already commanded two wars, one of which was a battlefield of the level of fighting for the Holy Emperor's ruins. The intensity should be much higher than that of ordinary extraterritorial war zones. If you say that nothing heartbreaking has happened to you, I don't believe it. of."

Li Qi smiled bitterly: "As expected of Minglou, you are still so sharp, so guess what happened to me?"

Zhong Minglu calculated with his fingers: "If I guess, something happened to relatives and friends because of this, right? And they are not ordinary relatives and friends, but close relatives. Your parents are not here, and you only have your wife, daughter, and master. It is impossible for me to have anything happen to the great witch, I wish you great powers." Yes, the problem must be with your wife and daughter. Let me guess... your wife and daughter have reached an ending you don’t want to see?"

"But... it's interesting. I can't deduce what the situation is, and I can't see the cause and effect line on you. You probably didn't cover me up deliberately. So, is this the situation that happened to the Taoism of the nine places in the world?"

"It's the devil. My daughter, Li Shiwei, is possessed by the devil." Li Qi saw that the other party's guess was pretty close, so he told the matter directly without giving in.

It is rare for Wu Jin not to show off.

Hearing this, Zhong Minglu was stunned. He was stunned and couldn't even move the snack he was chewing.

After a long time, Zhong Minglou looked up to the sky and sighed: "Oh, this is war, why bother? Li Qi, you used to stand firmly on the side of the main battle and do your best to promote the war process. Do you want to get where you are today?"

Zhong Minglu sighed, he seemed to be able to clearly understand Li Qi's feelings. Li Qi also had something happen to his daughter during the war.

"What happened in the past, I can only say, if I had to do it again, I would still do it." Li Qi said.

"That's right. With your firm Taoist heart, you will never regret the decision you made. By the way, your pastry is actually from Chang'an. Have you ever been to Chang'an?" Zhong Minglou asked curiously.

At this time, Li Qi took out a piece of Chang'an's traditional pastry, which was amazing.

"When I was confronting Humanity, I went to Chang'an for a while. As you know, I have always loved food, so I bought some to take with me." Li Qi said.

Zhong Minglu thought thoughtfully: "I see, then why did you come to me this time? You are now in the fourth grade, you can't really just come to me to reminisce about old times, right?"

"It's also because of my daughter's matter. I want to ask you to introduce me so that I can meet your master...the great fortune teller. I want to ask him to help me deduce Shi Wei's matter."

"Minglou, this is all I want." (End of chapter)
