"It's not impossible for me to go to the Shiyuan River defense line, but I want to see Lian Gu first. I won't go to the Shiyuan River defense line without seeing Lian Gu, even if the Shiyuan River defense line is about to be broken."
Zhang Changkong understood that he could not escape this trip. There were still two warlocks left in Sanhe Rainforest. If he insisted on not going to the Shiyuan River Defense Line to defend, the insect tide would once again wreak havoc in Sanhe Prefecture, and the Xiangshan Sect would be held responsible. Secondly, countless people in Sanhe Prefecture died for this.
Zhang Changkong has not been able to do such a thing that caused thousands of mortals to die due to his own selfishness. In the past, he could shirk it because if he did not do it, someone else would do it. Now, only Liangu is left. If The pressure is too great, and I can't even think about bone refining, so I give it up. At that time, wouldn't it be necessary to consider how to keep the eggs intact when the nest is overturned?
But Zhang Changkong couldn't just agree to take over casually. Doing so would not serve the interests of justice, but would be irresponsible to himself.
Zhang Changkong was very vigilant. Although he had acted out the scene of his escape countless times. Even when fighting against insects, he always let his subordinates attack from a distance. He was very confident in escaping. However, Gale was also afraid before his death. idea.
Those who drown are usually those who know how to swim. If there is any negligence, Zhang Changkong may have to leave these dozens of kilograms in this inhospitable Sanhe Rainforest.
Therefore, Zhang Changkong needs more protection. He used to think that whether it was blasting wind or bone refining, they must rely on jade talismans to make a difference in the insect tide. Then, Zhang Changkong had no reason to risk his wealth and life. If you have any talismans, give him one or two. Even if he doesn't use them, they can be used as compensation for the deaths and injuries of his insect swarms.
After Zhou Yu heard Zhang Changkong's reply, although it was somewhat different from what he expected, he also knew that the Immortal Master Zhang Changkong had already made his final concession and could only take Zhang Changkong's reply back to the city lord's palace to report.
Three days later, Lian Gu did not come, and Zhou Yu came again, but he brought a letter from Lian Gu.
"The Bone Refining Immortal Master cannot do without the Shiyuan River defense line these days. The battle five days ago caused great damage to the entire Shiyuan River defense line. Moreover, the Bone Refining Immortal Master took away the iron-blooded team from the Qinghe defense line. Although the city lord The government urgently transferred a certain amount of combat power from Rainstorm City, but the Qinghe defense line lacks immortal masters to guard it, and the situation is already very bad."
Zhou Yu, who used to be meticulous in the past, now seemed a little embarrassed. Zhang Changkong understood what he meant, and he just wanted him to take the overall situation into consideration and join the battle at the Shiyuan River defense line as soon as possible.
"Okay, bring me the letter for bone refining."
Zhang Changkong opened the letter,
"Junior Brother Zhang, now the Shiyuan River defense line has reached a critical juncture. I know that it is difficult for you to defend at such a young age, but now there are only two warlocks left in Sanhe Rainforest. We should..."
Zhang Changkong took a look and saw that Liang Gu was talking nonsense, ranging from righteousness to humanity. The words asked him to put aside his previous unhappiness and take the overall situation into consideration.
Fortunately, the letter ended with something about the jade talismans. According to Liangu, in addition to the three guarding immortal masters in Heavy Rain City, there are also three jade talismans left by the Xiangshan Sect. These three jade talismans are to deal with the crisis. It was only taken out recently, such as this insect wave.
He said that when the insect wave started, he was originally supposed to be responsible for assisting the guard, but since the three jade talismans were not enough for four people, the jade talismans were not given to him.
It was also said that the jade talisman could only be used a limited number of times. Over the past year, he and Gale had both used the jade talisman five or six times. However, the Sky Fire Immortal Master was so powerful that he basically did not use the jade talisman.
More than a month ago, he and Hayate also relied on the jade talisman left by Master Tianhuo to barely maintain the situation at the Ishihara River defense line.
The letter also stated the cause of Gale's death. On the one hand, there were multiple insects, and on the other hand, Gale's mana consumption was serious. The most important thing was that the jade talisman reached the limit of use at the critical moment. Mouth of the Zerg.
Finally, the Bone Refining Immortal Master promised that if Zhang Changkong went to Shiyuan River to guard the defense line, he could leave the original jade talisman to Hayate and wait for him to hand it over to him in person at Shiyuan River. As for how many times this jade talisman can be used. I don’t know this time.
"So that's it. I'm still wondering about Gao Feng, who has been here for decades. Not to mention that he is almost mature with age. How could he fall over so easily? It turns out that he was tricked by the talisman and died unjustly. Who? I asked you to take the jade talisman that belonged to me even after Tianhuo died." Zhang Changkong felt like he was relieved.
Of course, Gale's incident also gave Zhang Changkong a reminder. Whether it's talismans or insects, these are all external forces. External forces are sometimes very useful, but the most reliable thing is one's own strength. That's the case with old man Tianhuo, who doesn't even use talismans very much. , relied solely on its own strength, and died steadily. In contrast, the false strength of Gale, which relied on talismans, would collapse midway as long as there was a slight accident.
Zhang Changkong decided that in the future, insects should be cultivated, but the progress of his own spells must not be slowed down.
"Okay, you go back first. Tomorrow I will rush to the Shiyuan River defense line and hand over the bone refining," Zhang Changkong said to Zhou Yu.
"Great, then I'll go back and report the news to the city lord first. Besides, since Master Zhang Xian has left the Xilihe station, Heavy Rain City will also increase its guard strength appropriately." Zhou Yu agreed and resigned.
Zhang Changkong looked at the three golden scarabs crawling around him, biting the furniture and even the walls.
"It's a pity that you are only about the size of a fist. You can't help much now. It's better to grow up quickly. In a year and a half, you will become the main force of my insect swarm." Zhang Changkong picked up a golden scarab. Observing in his hands, "Well, you are like hard-shelled beetles now. It would be great if all the hard-shelled beetles I have are as powerful as you."
Zhang Changkong put down the golden scarab and thought of something. To the Xiangshan Sect, he was like a golden scarab that had not yet grown up. However, the Xiangshan Sect allowed him to come to a dangerous place like the Sanhe Rainforest. If he hadn't The progress of his cultivation is far beyond that of ordinary people, and his magic power is much stronger than normal. He also accidentally obtained the black stone and got the help of insects. I am afraid that he has encountered life and death crises several times in the past year. It was not him who blew it, but it was him. It was him. Any "classmate" who comes to his position will most likely fall down. The one who doesn't get down must be the chosen one. In this case, does he not pay attention to him?
This is obviously impossible. If the Xiangshan Sect did not pay attention to the new forces, it would not send many people to lurk in the spheres of influence of other immortal cultivating sects every year to deceive and abduct children with the qualifications to cultivate immortals.
"So this is the consequence of not being humble and doing small things in Wanzhu Peak. I used to think that even if I were to work alone, under the rules of the Xiangshan Sect, what can those who don't like me do to me? I didn't expect that the Xiangshan Sect is better than I imagined. It's even darker, it can be said to be killing people invisibly."
Thinking of this, Zhang Changkong somewhat understood his situation, "It is definitely impossible for me to bow my head. Without organization, I may face more dangers in Xiangshan Sect than Sanhe Rainforest, and the methods are also hidden. If I am not careful, I may face more dangers." Being tricked to death by others, it seems that it is not a wise choice to go back to Xiangshan Sect before his strength reaches a certain level. Even if the concentration of Xiangshan Sect's vitality is high, compared to the possible dangers, it is better to stay away temporarily,' Chong'er If you live outside, you will die inside. When you are not strong enough, you should stay away from danger first. This should be regarded as a strategic retreat."
Zhang Changkong used to be obsessed with the vitality environment of Wanzhu Peak, but now it seems that he is still too young. He has no time or opportunity to be exposed to the dark side of Xiangshan Sect, so he was deceived by the peaceful surface of Xiangshan Sect.
"Wherever there are people, there will be disputes. At present, I don't have the time to intervene in the disputes between Xiangshan Sect or Wanzhu Peak. Let's wait and see in the future."
Zhang Changkong has never been a generous person. When he gains strength in the future, he will definitely repay the person or those who put him in this situation, no one less.
He does not believe in "grudges disappear with a smile", but only believes in "good and evil will eventually be rewarded". If he does not repay now, it means he has not yet reached the level of cultivation.
Zhang Changkong put aside these things that he couldn't take care of for the moment and began to prepare for tomorrow's trip.
