Chapter 277

On the hillside in the distance, stands a beacon tower.

Beside the beacon tower, the Taoist sat cross-legged.

A bay red horse was carrying a bag, grazing quietly, as if it didn't care about the war at the bottom of the mountain, while the sanhua cat sat upright beside the Taoist, as if imitating the Taoist, staring down.

It's just that she couldn't help her lively temperament after all, she turned her head and asked the Taoist:
"What are they doing?"

The Taoist didn't look sideways, just stared down, and at the same time replied to her in a low voice:
"fight."

"Is this a war?"

"Yes."

"Why so many people?"

"Because there are a lot of people."

"Why?"

The cat seemed unable to understand war, and its eyes were filled with pure curiosity.

"Don't cats fight too?"

"right……"

"right."

"Why do you always invite mountain gods?"

"It's easy to use."

"Isn't the mountain god tired?"

"It's the way to turn a stone into a soldier."

"The method of turning a stone into a soldier!"

"One of the five-element spells is the method of earth movement. I told Empress Sanhua when I was in Yidu back then. According to the depth of cultivation, you can tear up the soil to form a wall, touch the stone to form an army, point to the mountain to clear the way, and sit on the mountain to become a god." .”

"forgotten……"

"It's ok."

"It seems very powerful."

"Want to learn?"

"Am I as good as I have learned?"

"It's up to you."

"Empress Sanhua has great supernatural powers and powerful mana!"

"..."

Song You stopped talking and looked down silently.

After a while, he turned his head and said to the Sanhua cat beside him, "I know a lot of spells. Five years ago in Yidu, I told Mistress Sanhua once. I don’t know much about spells, and secondly, it’s not intuitive enough after all. Now Sanhua Niangniang’s fire method can be regarded as a successful practice. On this basis, I can also consider learning something else. Show some to Empress Sanhua, and if Empress Sanhua wants to learn, she can choose another one."

"Hmm! Why do you have so many?"

"I am powerful."

"This way is more expensive than essence!"

"..." The Taoist withdrew his gaze and continued to look down. After a while, he finally said, "People are not the same."

"Meow..."

"It's even more different with cats."

"Well……"

The cat seemed to understand, but didn't ask any more questions. It followed him and continued to look down, leaving only one tail swaying behind it, as if sweeping the floor.

The offensive and defensive battle below continued for a while.

Several times, people have boarded the top of the city.

However, the command in the city was done properly, I don't know if there was any surprise, but it didn't look dangerous anyway.

It seemed that they didn't know what was going on with the stone giant, so they were a little vigilant. The Saibei people didn't send any new monsters out, and it seemed that their morale had long been gone. Seeing the setting sun, it was almost dusk. With the sound of the gong, the Saibei people also retreated their troops one after another.

Many corpses were left in the city.

The most conspicuous one was undoubtedly the headless bear corpse.

Song You raised his eyes again and saw a figure on the west wall. He couldn't see his face clearly from a distance, he could only see a tall and straight figure, and he was also looking into the distance, as if he was looking for something.

Soon he saw the figure on the mountain here.

The eyes of the two sides intertwined.

"Let's go."

Song You stood up and stepped down.

The three-flowered cat also stood up immediately, stretched its waist, and followed him, and the bay red horse followed him down the mountain.

The main gate of Yuanzhi City faces south, and there are urns in each of the four directions.

Song You came from the west and walked through the west gate.

Ximen has apparently been attacked recently, the city walls and gates are all damaged, there are marks of swords and axes chiseling stones, and huge scratches of unknown things, and even some clusters of arrows are still embedded in the city walls.

The Taoist, a cat and a horse walked slowly, with a calm expression, looking at the military town full of scars.

It is a war, and it is also a trace of history.

"boom……"

The west-facing door slowly opened.

Inside the gate is the Wengcheng. I don't know how many soldiers were buried. The ground and the walls were stained red with blood. Inside stood a group of soldiers. The leader was wearing heavy armor and a red cape. He was tall and looked at him.

The generals and soldiers behind them are all in full armor, and some of them can't even see their faces, only a pair of eyes are exposed.

The evening light was shining from behind the Taoist and the bay red horse, and through the slowly opened city gate, it shone on the soldiers in the city. Facing the light of the setting sun, every knife mark, sword mark and pothole on the armor were brought out. The mottled light and shadow appear real and thick.

"Oh!"

General Chen took the lead in cupping his fists, and said in a calm voice, "Sir, long time no see."

All the generals behind him clasped their fists.

A neat sound.

The Taoist stopped at the gate of the urn city and looked at him with his stick.

"haven't seen you for a long time."

"Thank you sir for your help this time!"

"Hands up."

"Sir, please!"

General Chen turned around and made a gesture of please.

"it is good."

The Taoist also took a step and followed him in.

All the generals and soldiers around him turned around to get out of the way, and they all quietly stared at him.

The Taoist walked calmly.

……

In the Martial Arts Hall, on one side stood the general who had just come down from the top of the city, and on the other side stood several advisors, with the main general and a Taoist in the middle.

There was also a three-colored cat squatting at the feet of the Taoist, with its head raised high, staring at these vicious people.

"It's finally time for you, sir." General Chen saluted again, "Please help me wait, sir."

"Don't panic, general, speak slowly."

General Chen remained calm and said slowly:
"Sir, I remember clearly the time I left Changjing in the spring of last year. I thought I would stay in Changjing for a while, but when the spring and summer were handed over last year, an urgent document came from the north, and the Saibei people once again committed crimes in the south. This time the attack was so fierce that several passes fell one after another, the north was in a hurry, and the government and the people were shocked, so Chen was ordered to return to the north.

"After returning to the north, I realized that it has only been more than ten years since the Saibei people were defeated last time, why they dared to attack again so soon...

"It turned out that there were demons to help out!

"If you talk about three or two monsters, it's nothing to be afraid of! Among the generals like me who have been fighting in the army all the year round, which of our subordinates has not killed a few monsters? Usually marching and training, most of them are in the wilderness, and how many old soldiers have not killed them?" Have you ever seen these things? But there are a lot of monsters in the Saibei Army, and they all have some abilities, some of them have some strange abilities..."

General Chen paused when he said this, and narrowed his eyes. Although there was no fear on his face, there was also a bit of helplessness:

"If you want to talk about the two armies confronting each other, I, Da Yan, have elite soldiers and strong generals, and I am not afraid of Saibei. However, subduing demons and eliminating demons is not my specialty after all. Demons have strange methods, and I have never been able to defend against them. If it is the bear demon today Such monsters are no more than a few strong generals at most, but in the Saibei Army, there are more than that.

"Although there are a few experts in our army who can subdue demons and eliminate demons, they can't do anything to them.

"Chen knew that Mr. Chen was just going down the mountain to travel around the world, and he didn't want to disturb him, but he was helpless, so he had to ask Mr. for help. If there is any disturbance, he will first plead guilty."

"Don't worry, General." Song You said, "Where did the monsters in the Saibei army come from?"

"Sir, do you know about Night City?"

"I know."

"Do you know that Zhaoye City was once occupied by monsters?"

"On the way down, I met a group of rangers from Zhaoye City. I heard them say it, but they didn't say it very clearly."

"Chen doesn't know much about monsters. Although he met monsters when he was on the march, he didn't know much about them. It's just that Chen also sent people to inquire about Zhaoye City. Later, he heard that Mr. Zhang I have guessed the details of the monster." General Chen said, "The monster is called the King of Huangsha by the soldiers, and it should have been a god worshiped by the Saibei people near us, and the people there called him Huang Shatian. It's just that the Saibei people went south to occupy a large area of ​​our Yanzhou territory, causing countless deaths and injuries, and there were piles of corpses outside Zhaoye City. For some reason, Huang Shatian turned into a demon and swallowed Zhaoye City in one bite, and then occupied the city As a king, neither we nor Saibei people dared to enter a radius of hundreds of miles. Until Yanzhou was recovered, Zhaoye City was still a demon country in our Dayan territory. I don’t know how many demons in the northern grasslands were attracted by it and entered Zhaoye City , and became a general under the Demon King's throne."

"The gods are enchanted..."

Song You muttered, lost in thought.

"Later I heard that the gods in the sky often descended to fight against the monsters in Zhaoye City. In May of the fourth year of Mingde, my husband and I were in Changjing at that time. The demon king of Zhaoye City was suppressed. The nearest army The guardian general was entrusted by Lei Gong in a dream to inform him of the news, and after he came to investigate, it turned out to be the case, so we re-entered Zhaoye City." General Chen said, "However, the demon king of Zhaoye City died, and the demon soldiers and generals under his command But he sent out many of them, and all of them recovered their lives."

Speaking of which, General Chen couldn't help but sneered, and said, "This demon king is also considered loyal."

"And why do they help Saibei people?"

"We don't know that."

"Is that so..."

Song You continued to look thoughtful.

Seeing him like this, General Chen didn't bother him, and he didn't speak. No matter the general or the counselors under his tent, they all kept silent and looked at Song You in silence.

It wasn't until Song You came out of his thoughts and turned his eyes to General Chen that he saluted again:
"gentlemen."

"General Wuyou is good at subduing demons." Song You said slowly, but without any ambiguity, "Wars in the world should not be intervened by demons. It happened that I have been walking in the north for more than a year, so I borrowed the general's tent to rest for a while. Time. But the offensive and defensive confrontation of the army is not the next director."

"Don't worry, sir!" General Chen immediately cupped his hands, "As long as you can defend our army against demons, as for the soldiers and horses in Saibei, it is naturally our duty as warriors!"

"Just call me when you need it."

"Thank you sir!"

The rest of the people also saluted one after another.

In fact, few people know who Song You is, and no one has heard of any masters in Lingquan County, Yizhou. At most, they know more about Taoism. They know that there is Qingcheng Mountain outside Yidu City. People are still famous for their swordsmanship and martial arts. The Xishan School is not far away, and the Xishan School is there.

Most of the people present didn't know much about the rumors about Hezhou and the pacification of the Heyuan Demon King. They just saw that the commander in the army attached great importance to him. Given his prestige, they naturally didn't doubt much.

Even doubt does not affect respect.

People specially came to help out, how can we be negligent?

Only a few military advisers had heard the legends from Hezhou, seeing Taoists for a while was like seeing gods.

"correct……"

The Taoist voice came out again.

The Taoist looked at General Chen again, and asked, "Is there a strange man named Xing and Xing Wu in the general's tent?"

"Sir, do you know Mr. Xing?"

"When I first left Changjing, I met him and heard that he was going to join General Chen in the army."

"Mr. Xing is now in our army and belongs to the Stranger Battalion. Thanks to him, the information in the army can be conveyed."

"Wonder camp?"

"The national division has Juxian Mansion in Changjing, and our army also has a camp of strange people in the north. Most of the camps are strange people from the world, all of them have their own abilities, and they are all loyal." General Chen paused, "Chen A certain person wants to introduce the masters from the Strange People Camp to Mr. If Mr. has needs, I can find them. Since Mr. Xing and Mr. Xing are old acquaintances, please come over here."

With a wave of his hand, someone went out.

Song You also looked outside, waiting silently, wanting to see who are the strange folks in the army.
