As a eunuch, I don't want to live forever

Chapter 232 He is more like a human being

The number of guards who came was not large, only a dozen or so cavalry.

Different from the Zhou soldiers,

The Great Wall Guards were not under the control of the imperial court, and they listened to announcements even if they were not ordered to do so.

Logically speaking, this is absolutely impossible for the entire court to accept.

But whether it is the Great Wall Army of the Northern Territory,

Or the boundless sea,

This is true.

They do not belong to the court, they only belong to the nation!
The Seven Kingdoms of the past are also good.

They are still the people of today's Zhou Dynasty.

They all have the same name: Xia people!
Legend has it that in the course of time, the Xia Emperor created humans, and thus the Xia people came into being, and the first empire was born: the Xia Kingdom!
The Great Wall Guards and the Boundless Navy are the two sharp swords that guard the Xia people's territory!

The border troops are destroyed!
The Xia people will be destroyed!

Border troops exist.

Zexia people have no worries!
Li Bai once told himself that in ancient times or earlier, there were records of battles between the Boundless Army and the Great Wall Army and the White Walkers and Frost Giants.

Like moths, they kept swooping on him.

Blood stained the Great Wall red!
Corpses filled most of the boundless sea.

But even so, no one retreated!

until……

The Great Wall Army no longer exists!
Straight...

No one in the boundless army stood up anymore.

This is their belief and will...

Although he is a mortal.

But the body of a mortal is comparable to that of a god.

Therefore, in response to the arrival of the Great Wall Guards, Chen Luo stood up and saluted from a distance.

This is not how it is.

It just comes from deep-seated awe.

For a group of people who have spent tens of thousands of years and have never shied away from the same duty generation after generation is the reverence of the people.

The squad leader of the dozen cavalry guards had the surname: Jiang.

Coincidentally.

For people in Kyoto...

The purpose of coming out this time was to investigate the evil in nearby villages, and to destroy the evil.

It's not impossible.

Soldiers are full of energy!

This point comes with the emergence of incense and the advent of the age of cultivating immortals. Their Qi and blood are more effective than hundreds of years ago!

Yongle period...

Emperor Yongle used a million-strong army to massacre thousands of Qi Condensation Realm cultivators in Qingyang Mountain.

One hundred thousand troops were lost!

This battle is the beginning of the battle to slay the immortals!
It has also established the current pattern of unifying the Great Zhou Dynasty and controlling the cultivation of immortality among sects all over the world!

Now, despite the fact that there are only a dozen or so knights in the guard army, they still dare to fight to the death with the evil spirits based on their energy and blood.

Just when they arrived here, they knew that this time their mission was completed.

"Aren't you afraid that we are evil spirits?"

Chen Luo asked.

a dog.

a fox.

a cat.

There is also a snake.

No matter how you look at this lineup, it’s quite strange, right?
Do they trust themselves now?

"I wouldn't have believed it in the past."

Captain Jiang smiled and said: "It's just that the golden lotuses all over the ground have made us let down our guard. After all, if even the human Buddha is an evil spirit, then the world in the Great Zhou Dynasty will probably be in chaos!"

Chen Luo was ashamed.

A human Buddha would not dare to act like this.

But this old eunuch in the world doesn't feel guilty at all.

I heard that Chen Luo wanted to go to the border.

Captain Jiang was quite happy.

then……

Then he led Chen Luo and others there.

This time, Chen Luo got on the horse.

Not a white dragon horse,

for border horses.

During the dozens of miles, the sun was just right, and with the guards leading us, we walked extraordinarily fast.

However, after half a day's journey, we saw the giant ice wall that was a hundred feet high from a distance.

It lies there like a giant dragon...

Shining brightly in the sun!
No starting point in sight,

No end in sight,

"We are so small."

Cat Lady Chongran said.

"It's a little small."

Chen Luo also responded...

He once lay prone in the void and watched the reincarnation of the people!
He once killed a real dragon with one sword, shocking the world and shaking the world of immortals!

He has also walked through the four seasons of this world and witnessed all kinds of worlds...

But I stand here today.

look up……

Some are just insignificant, and some are deeply powerless.

"This Great Wall is very high, isn't it?"

Everyone has long been used to facing the talking cat lady.

Many foxes opened their mouths along the way.

Even more so with the dog.

So, this cat is talking abnormally?

It would be a bit abnormal for a human Buddha to have few followers.

Captain Jiang stood beside Chen Luo, raised his head, and looked at the Great Wall:
"When I saw the Great Wall for the first time, I was more shocked than everyone else... I had thought before about how high, how big, and how long this Great Wall would be!

But only when I saw it, I realized that what I had thought and guessed in the past was far from correct. "

"This Great Wall...can't be built by ordinary people...I guess it must have been forced out of the ground by the immortal's great magical power, right?"

Chen Luo smiled.

On this point, he agreed with Captain Jiang's words.

It is difficult to create without human effort.

and……

This immortal may be a true immortal.

This is not the kind of person who dares to call himself an immortal even if he is condensing his energy.

At least with my current strength, I can't do it.

Another hour.

Finally arrived at the foot of the Great Wall.

There is a city here!
For Yanmen Pass!

Exiting Yanmen Pass is the Ice Forest.

Just when he arrived here, Chen Luo saw a giant...

All blue.

Like frost, it stands in front of Yanmen Pass.

The soldiers set up wooden frames around it...

It is five or six meters high.

This giant is headless.

Not really mindless.

But this head was placed not far away, also built with wooden frames and surrounded.

"This is?"

Chen Luo asked.

Captain Jiang said: "Frost Giant!"

He says……

But the voice was a little deeper.

In order to kill this giant, they paid an unprecedented heavy price.

A total of nearly 1 guardsmen turned into ice sculptures.

In the end, it turned into ice slag,

Not even the bones can be left behind...

Chen Luo was silent.

No more asking.

He had never heard of the Frost Giant Rebellion in the past.

What surprised him was that they actually killed a giant here...

But something from the legend appeared in front of him.

The shock itself is actually quite surprising.

Therefore, talking too much seems unnecessary.

As for the death of so many guards...this is inevitable...

It is different from the physical immunity of the White Walkers.

Frost giants are immune to magic.

To kill him, other than getting close, it would be difficult for them to find other ways...

only……

"No one is assimilated?"

Once you are attacked by a frost giant and leave wounds or something, you will become a frost giant in a short period of time...

And this is also the reason why the Frost Giants are invincible.

Kill more!
The more giants there are...

How not to get a headache?
"They left no problems for the brothers."

Captain Jiang said.

With just this sentence, Chen Luo knew...

"The people of the Great Zhou owe too much to the Great Wall Guards in the North and the Borderless Army in the South..."

generation……

generation……

Another generation!
Even if you live a poor life, you will not be able to make up for it.

"Perhaps this is also the reason why we joined the Great Wall Guards in the past, right?"

Captain Jiang said.

Chen Luo nodded.

"Maybe one day I will be one of them."

"If so, it would be the glory of the Great Wall Guards."

"But not now."

"understand!"

he...

There are more important things to do.

This time... I was just passing by.Entered the city.

Captain Jiang took Chen Luo to the command post.

Met the leader of the guard...

That was an old man.

Bent body.

With a goatee mustache.

When I saw Chen Luo, he was lying in the yard drinking wine and warming himself by the fire.

But he is such a wretched old man.

Whether it’s Captain Jiang or anyone in the guard army,

Even when Li Bai wrote to him, he mentioned it.

There was spontaneous admiration in his tone.

The old man only has one last name...

No name.

He said that when entering this city, there is actually only one name: Guards!
There are just too many guards.

An army of more than a million people... It's not good to use them all.

So he kept his last name.

Everyone calls him Lao Zhao.

Lao Zhao was happy for Chen Luo's arrival.

Very few people come to the Great Wall of the North...

Therefore, Lao Zhao was also very happy when someone came to visit.

When he learned Chen Luo's name, Old Zhao was stunned for a moment, lowered his head, and thought for a long time.

It took him a long time to pat his head.

"Don't argue with your father-in-law?"

There is no fight this week...

Unexpectedly, it was the young man in front of me.

He has heard of it.

And he also knows a lot.

It’s not like he has to know...

It’s just that someone was here decades ago, talking about it in front of me every day, and it’s difficult not to know.

"If this were based on seniority, Lao Zhao would probably call my father-in-law Taizu, right?"

Lao Zhaoba chirped.

"Forget it, let's discuss it individually. The guards never talk based on age."

His eyes rolled as he spoke.

Chen Luo smiled.

I won’t expose this old Zhao.

He likes this old man...

Such is the fate between people.

When he met Captain Jiang, Chen Luo trusted him.

When he met Lao Zhao, Chen Luo also liked him.

In this case, there is no need to worry about too much etiquette...

……

Chen Luo stayed at Yanmen Pass for about ten days.

The first three days.

Commander Yu and Lao Zhao drank and chatted.

The drunk daughter is red.

They talked about the Frost Giants, the Great Wall Guards, and what happened in the Great Zhou Dynasty over the years.

Lao Zhao grew up on the Great Wall in the north.

According to what he said, he himself didn’t know who his parents were for a long time...

All I know is that he has memories of being here on the Great Wall.

he said...

He also pointed to the city wall.

The city wall is ice!

Over the past tens of thousands of years, I don’t know how many meters thick it has become...

Said it was a city wall.

But it is dozens of meters thick.

But there was a place where Lao Zhao pointed out, which looked like a dragon clinging to it.

He asked Chen Luo.

"Any idea how that came about?"

Chen Luo shook his head.

"Every time after I drink, Lao Zhao, I like to stand there and pee... over time, it turns into a python!

But that was when I was a kid. After I turned ten, I peed in the direction of the Ice Forest!
That place is...even more spectacular! "

Chen Luo: ...

He didn't want to talk about it.

Taste!
and……

It hurts one’s self-esteem!

He thought that if he waited for his two ounces of flesh to recover, the real dragon would come to the world.

So thinking about this made me look down on Lao Zhao.

Chen Luo also asked about the ice giant.

The frost giant was killed by Lao Zhao.

So I know a little more...

Chen Luo knew this, but she heard that it was Lao Zhao who killed the frost giant, so the cat lady couldn't help but read more.

perhaps……

She didn't know how this wretched old man could kill the Frost Giant!

But it didn't ask.

Some things can only be asked at the right opportunity.

But now, it is obviously not the right opportunity.

But when he heard Chen Luo say that he was going to the Northern Territory, Old Zhao felt a little emotional: "I also want to see what the Northern Territory is like.

It's just a pity...

In this life, the old man will not have this opportunity. "

he...

Can't live without the Great Wall!

There is only one way to leave here, and that is death!

"Father, can you promise me something?"

"Please say."

"If we wait for the day when my father-in-law comes back, you and I can drink three hundred cups at Yanmen Pass... How about you tell the old man about the scenery of the Northern Territory?"

Chen Luo nodded.

If that day comes, he will explain clearly to Old Zhao what he has seen and heard over the years.

……

From the fourth day to the sixth day.

Chen Luo took Xiaobai and the others throughout Yanmen Pass...

I also appreciated the beauty of the entire Great Wall.

It is different from previous cities.

Yanmen Pass is filled with a murderous atmosphere...

school field.

Hundreds of thousands of guards wearing armor, cloaks, and spears stood on the square!
They lined up neatly.

When there is silence,

Chilling cicadas are forbidden.

When the sword is drawn,

The blood is soaring.

Their swords never knew what fear was.

Their fighting spirit can shake even the mountains and eclipse the sun and moon.

"How are they?"

Lao Zhao asked Chen Luo.

"very good!"

Chen Luo said.

"How good is it?"

"The number one elite in the Great Zhou Dynasty!"

however……

After hearing this, Lao Zhao shook his head.

"But it's not enough!"

He looked towards the ice forest.

It seems like I have seen the distant country of Daqian again...

"Not to mention the place outside the Ice Forest, there are the Frost Giants, the mountains they can't cross... They are far from enough, their road is still long!"

Because I have seen it before, I am afraid of it!
Because I have fought before, I know the difference.

The Frost Giant at the gate of Yanmen Pass is still there...

The great battle in the past was even closer to our eyes and had never gone away.

Chen Luo didn't answer.

Because I don’t know how to answer.

Of course, you may also feel that you are not qualified to answer this question.

Compared to what they want.

I am not as good as myself!

The seventh day to the tenth day.

Chen Luo chants sutras and chants on the wall of the Great Wall!
The sutra is: "Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva's Original Vow Sutra".

This is the most commonly used method of salvation in Buddhism, and it is also the easiest to use.

The Dao texts are "Tai Shang Cave Xuan Ling Bao Tian Zun's Wonderful Sutra for Saving Suffering", "Tai Shang Dao Jun's Wonderful Sutra for Solving Wrong and Eradicating Sins" and "Yuan Shi Tian Zun's Sutra for Reborn in Heaven and Achieving the Way"...

Chen Luo didn't know what he could do, so...he chose to chant sutras and chants for them on the Great Wall.

Maybe it’s useless!

But it might work.

At least try your best.

Within these three days... everyone saw the golden light that filled the sky, and also saw the golden lotus and rainbow clouds all over the city.

"Do you know why I like to follow him?"

Look at the man sitting on the wall.

Bai Long asked.

"Perhaps it's because Master looks like a human being?"

The cat lady said.

Fellow Taoist Bailong nodded...

Yes!

He... although he is cultivating immortality and walking the Tao, what he can do is human affairs.

Far more than the clay statues sitting in the front hall of the temple, the detached immortals in the deep mountain fairyland are more like a human being.
