Tian Yuan Xian Ji

Chapter 223 Chigan Ridge ([-])
The leader is a man with thin eyes and long beard, about forty years old, named Hu Guang, a disciple of the inspector department of Xuande Palace.

There are two people behind him, a man and a woman. The man is about [-] years old, with a broad forehead and a broad face. His name is Zhao Xiaohan, and he is a student of the Department of Internal Affairs.

The woman is about twenty years old, with icy muscles and fine bones, a face like a peach blossom, and eyes like a full moon. Her name is Su Lin, and she is a student of the Department of Medicinal Medicine of the Internal Affairs Academy.

This Su Lin, Tang Ning once had a relationship with her. At that time, he was in the herb department, just when the sect's trial site was opened, he met Wu Datong, who was dying in the mountain guard department, and was entrusted by his will to save the treasures. Xu Lin was given the things needed for foundation building in the bag, but was rejected. At that time, the woman's indifference made a deep impression on him.

Later, rumors spread that he pursued this woman but was ruthlessly rejected.

He has never met the other two, but only met the head of the Qianxing Palace at one o'clock, so he knew their names.

These three people were stationed at Yuanjian Mountain, about a hundred miles southeast of Chiganling, so they arrived first.

"Brother Xie, I was ordered by Uncle Yan of the Great Camp to come to support you. The three of us will go first, and the rest of the disciples are on their way. What's wrong? The Corpse Puppet Sect has retreated?" Hu Guang asked

As soon as this remark came out, several people's faces were a little unnatural.

Xie Lang said: "The Corpse Puppet Sect didn't attack, it's because our intelligence judged wrongly, we just informed the camp, but we couldn't get in touch with you, so we hereby wait for you."

"The Corpse Puppet Sect didn't attack?"

"Yes. Just follow me, and you'll know at a glance."

Hu Guang and the three looked at each other, and then they followed Xie Lang for dozens of miles to the front post.

Xie Lang pointed to the disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect in the distance and said: "We are only a hundred miles away from the Corpse Puppet Sect. In order to guard against the sudden attack of the Corpse Puppet Sect, we sent out sentries every ten miles forward, under the name of fireworks."

"Half an hour ago, the members of the Corpse Puppet Sect came out of the big formation. The disciples guarding the sentry mistakenly thought that they were coming to attack the main camp, so they sent a signal and sent it to the camp. When the Corpse Puppet Sect came, they informed Daying, and later found out that they were also building outposts, so there was a misunderstanding."

"I see." Hu Guang nodded and said, "It seems that Mozong is also worried that I will attack his camp."

Xie Lang said: "Trouble the three juniors for making this trip in vain. I really feel guilty because of my misjudgment."

"Brother Xie is so ashamed of such a trivial matter. Isn't it what I was expecting that the Corpse Puppet Sect didn't dare to attack the camp? Since it was a false alarm, I will leave now." Hu Guang said, and Zhao Xiaohan and Su Lin fled. The light goes southeast.

Xie Lang returned to the front of the formation, several people received several batches of reinforcements one after another, explained the reasons to them, and returned to the formation until the last batch of reinforcements from the camp were sent away.

"This is not possible. The front guard post is too far away from our camp. The disciples below panicked and fled in a hurry when they saw the movement of the Corpse Puppet Sect. There was no time to distinguish the truth of the enemy's situation, let alone find out the details of the enemy's situation."

"Brother Xie, what do you mean?"

"I think we'll take turns guarding the sentry, one round per month, what do you guys think?"

A few people naturally have no objection.

Xie Lang said: "Well, I will be on guard this month."

Zhou Tao said: "Brother Xie, you are the backbone of our team. How can we send a general to guard the sentry? It is better to sit in the camp! Besides, it has been discussed before that you will take care of the gossip integrated array. I will wait for a few people to handle the sentry Just take turns."

Xie Lang looked at Tangning and the others, and they all voiced their support.

"Since that's the case, the position of sentry will be troublesome to all junior brothers, Junior Brother Tang, you will lead my disciples to take up the post of sentry this month!"

"Okay." Tangning nodded.

Wang Tianyu said: "Why don't we lead the disciples from our department to take turns as sentry posts, and Senior Brother Xie and the disciples from the transfer department are only responsible for guarding the sound transmission array, so it's easy to deploy, how about it?"

"That's fine, what do you brothers think?"

Several people nodded in agreement.

"Then Junior Brother Tang, you and the disciples from the intelligence department will be the guards this month. Junior Brother Yang, Junior Brother Wang, and Junior Brother Zhou will be on duty in turn, and the teleportation array will be guarded by me and the disciples from the headquarters," Xie Lang said.

There was no objection from the few people, and they all returned to the headquarters. Tangning summoned the disciples of the intelligence department to discuss matters in his stone house.

Not long after, everyone arrived.

Tang Ning said, "Just now I discussed with Senior Brother Xie and others. From now on, the guards of the sound transmission array will be guarded by the disciples of the transferred department, and the guards of the sentry post will be handled by the other four departments. It is still a rotation system, with one duty per month. This month, our intelligence department will be in charge. Guard."

"Next, I will arrange your respective positions."

"Zhao Yong, Qian Mu, you two stay in the formation and are responsible for guarding the alarm bell."

"Zhao Liheng, Zhu Zilian, you two guard your younger brother and one sentry."

"Zhong Mu, Qin Yao, you two guard the second guard post."

"Ma Boyong, Tang Zhen, you two guard the third guard post."

"Ma Yu, Feng Shishi, you two and I will guard the fourth guard post."

Everyone should claim to be.

"Your cultivation base is still low, just send the signal. If you see the firework signal ahead, send the signal back to the camp immediately, and set off to guard the guard tonight. You go back and prepare."

"Yes." Everyone responded and left the stone house.

At night, Tangning led the crowd to collect the fireworks from Xie Lang, left the camp, and boarded the watchtower according to the previous arrangement.

Tang Ning, Ma Yu, and Feng Shishi came to the watchtower [-] miles away from the camp. Tonight, the moon was bright and the stars were bright, and they could barely see the members of the corpse puppet sect tens of miles away. The watchtower was about half built. .

"Uncle Tang, in your opinion, now that we have set up camp, will the Corpse Puppet Sect choose to continue to invade, or just let it go and rule?" Feng Shishi asked
"There's no outsider around, so you don't have to talk about each other. It sounds awkward."

The three of them belonged to the same aircraft support team, and they have performed many missions together, so they are relatively close.

"This is an unwritten rule in the practice world to distinguish between superior and inferior. All disciples of the sect are like this. How can the two of us make an exception."

Tangning no longer forced herself, shook her head and sighed, "It's impossible to divide and rule."

"Why? Although his corpse puppet sect has completed the integration, its strength may not be stronger than this sect, and it has already occupied the spiritual mine of Xushu Mountain, expanded thousands of miles, and won many cultivation resources. Don't you still refuse to be satisfied? You have to risk your life and fight with me to the death before you will give up?"

Tangning smiled, "When the Taoist sect gained power, the disciples of the Corpse Puppet Sect were hiding in deep valleys and mountains. They were not the same as besieging and exterminating them everywhere. Did they ever let them go because they were sneaking up? Wouldn't it be absurd to expect to divide and rule?"

"Strength and weakness are different. At that time, the strength of my Xuanmen was enough to crush the Demon Sect, so as to eliminate all evil. Even if the Corpse Puppet Sect has the New Moon Sect and the Phantom Sect to help, the overall strength is no more than a rival to the Xuanmen. Why don't you stop?" Wouldn't it be better for Jia to stop fighting and rule by dividing boundaries?"

"Yeah! Didn't you say that? Today, the strength of the Demon Sect and the Xuanmen are on par, but how much territory and resources does the Xuanmen control, and how much does the Demon Sect control? How can we be reconciled? Our Yizong has a radius of thousands of miles. , and the Corpse Puppet Sect is only a thousand miles away, and its strength is not weaker than ours. Why do I control thousands of miles, but it can only settle in a corner? If it is said to divide and rule, the sect has to give up a land of thousands of miles. Row."

After hearing this, Feng Shishi remained silent.

Ma Yudao: "Looking at the formation of the Corpse Puppet Sect today, it seems that they didn't intend to attack. Instead, they set up watchtowers like me, presumably because they were worried that I would attack him. Does this mean that they did not plan to attack the looting land?" ?”

"Not invading now, doesn't mean it will always be like this in the future. It's just that the high-level leaders of the Demon Sect have not made up their minds. They have been expanding over the years, and they have obtained so many cultivation resources. It will take time to digest internally. Maybe with luck, when they invade again , I have already returned to the sect."

The two stopped talking. Tangning glanced at Feng Shishi and said, "Junior Sister Feng, you have reached the Great Perfection of Qi Refining. Why didn't you apply to the sect to prepare for foundation building? Why did Senior Brother Lu call you here?"

Feng Shishi said: "A few years ago, I attacked the foundation building once, but unfortunately failed. Fortunately, I stopped in time and only suffered some minor injuries. All the spirit stones accumulated in these years were used for the foundation building, and they were destroyed together. Senior Brother Cao once again applied for foundation establishment preparations, and I was acting as the captain, so I did not apply."

"Is it trapped by the demon?"

"It hasn't reached that point yet, the meridians and bones in the body can't withstand the attack of spiritual power, and they can't condense smoothly after being torn."

In the foundation building stage, the influx of heaven and earth spiritual energy into the body will melt all the bones and meridians, and then regenerate them until they can resist the invasion of spiritual power.

In the middle of the process, there will be about four or five rebirths. If the rebirth is not successful, the spiritual power will be disordered, and it will directly attack the Linghai acupoint and internal organs, causing the monk to die violently.

Tang Ning took out the Qingxin Bell from the storage bag and handed it to Feng Shishi: "This is the Qingxin Bell given by the sect when I established the foundation. It is still intact. It is useless for me to keep it. Give it to you! It's a pity that the Wumen Yunshuizhen is here It was destroyed when the foundation was built, otherwise this thing might be able to help you survive the invasion of heaven and earth spiritual power."

"This..." Feng Shishi hesitated, wanted to accept it but couldn't save face.

"Take it! Anyway, I don't need this thing anymore, let it play its role."

"Thank you, Uncle Tang." Feng Shishi took the Qingxin bell and said.

"I don't know when the Mysterious Demon War will come again. The earlier you build your foundation, the better you will be able to protect yourself."

Ma Yu smiled bitterly: "I don't have much chance, I'm afraid I won't be able to pass this hurdle in this life."

"The opportunity to break through the bottleneck is just a thought, you don't need to be so depressed."

………………

On the second day, the watchtower of the Corpse Puppet Sect was also built. The two sides looked at each other from a distance of forty or fifty miles. From such a distance, it was impossible to see the facial features clearly. It was barely possible to see the outline. The other party's watchtower The last two disciples don't know how to cultivate.

Just like here, the Corpse Puppet Sect has four posts in total.

At first, both sides were still very vigilant, each watching closely the movement of the other's camp, seeing three or four figures appearing in and out of its large formation, they all watched intently, ready to set off fireworks as a sign at any time.

Especially when they saw the other party's Foundation Establishment cultivator from afar, and Dunguang entering and leaving the formation from afar, Tang Ning told Ma Yu and Feng Shishi to hold the fireworks in their hands, and as soon as they approached their guard post, they would send a signal and run away.

As the days passed, I gradually got used to it and stopped being so surprised, and just treated it as a matter of nostalgia.
