After two days of traveling, Li Huanzhen and the others finally arrived at the edge of the Nanhuang Mountains. In the mountains, the original forest is dense, and the forest is very dark. Poisonous insects are infested. The roars of the beasts are as dull as thunder. The fishy smell from the poisonous insects and beasts hits the nostrils and makes the skin and bones chill.
"Roar..." A thunderous roar came from the depths of the mountains, causing rocks to roll down, the echoes rumbling, the trees swaying violently, plumes flying wildly, and large ferocious beasts appearing in the distance. Some people were timid and sat on the ground in shock.
"I don't want the gold anymore, I want to go back."
Some people were so frightened that they fled out of the mountain. Li Huanzhen recognized this person. He was Wang Daudao, the second son of Lao Wangtou's family in the east of the village. When he was a child, he often bullied Li Huanzhen because of his age and size.
At this time, Wang Dadan was frightened by the roar and ran away. However, he only ran out a few steps when everyone felt a white light in front of their eyes. After the white light, they felt a warm liquid on their face. Someone touched it and were shocked. cried: "It's blood."
Only then did everyone see the scene in front of them clearly. Wang DaDa, who had changed his body and head, rolled onto his head not far away and his eyes were still wide open. His eyes were filled with unwillingness to live and the desire to survive.
While everyone was in astonishment, more than ten people walked out of the woods nearby, wearing the same Red Dragon Guard armor as Captain Chang. However, the armor of the leader seemed to be more refined than Captain Chang's. It should be better than Colonel Chang's. Wei was a senior official, and more importantly, he was holding a bloody long knife in his hand.
"It turns out to be General Hou. I was really shocked, haha, haha." Imperial Envoy Liang Du said with a trembling smile.
"Humph, Mr. Liang, you have been delaying for too long. If this general hadn't happened to come out for inspection, I would have thought that you were intercepted and killed by the rebels on the road. And you, Chang Chu, how did you lead the troops? This situation is so... Being scared like that and seeing how cowardly you all are, it really embarrasses our Red Dragon Guard." The general named Hou said with an angry look on his face.
"Yes, yes, General Hou, you are absolutely right. This is my negligence. General Hou, please forgive me." Liang Du Yushi said with a smile, while Chang Xiaowei stood aside respectfully and said: I dare not say it,
"These are the labor you hired, right?"
"Yes, General." Colonel Chang quickly replied,
"Listen to me, you untouchables. Now that you are here, you must obey military orders. Anyone who dares to escape from battle will be subject to military law - beheaded without mercy. This person will be your fate."
General Hou stepped on Wang DaDa's dead head and said to Li Huanzhen and the others.
After the frightening moment, in order to prevent the laborers from escaping, General Hou sent soldiers to escort Li Huanzhen and others to the camp in the forest. Li Huanzhen and others were placed together with laborers recruited from other places, and soldiers were sent Guard, Li Huanzhen heard Lao Li say earlier that this camp is very big, with at least a thousand people here.
The center of the camp was not General Hou's commanding tent, but three "immortals". They were seen flying out of the camp in the clouds, riding on fog, and wielding swords every morning, and then flying back at night, attracting some people to pay homage.
On the periphery of the three "immortal" camps are the camps of General Hou and Imperial Envoy Liang Du, on the outside are the camps of the Red Dragon Guard soldiers, and on the outermost side are the camps of Li Huanzhen and his group of laborers.
At night, the whole camp was ablaze with lights, and the central tent was even more brilliantly lit. General Hou, who had been so arrogant during the day, was sitting humbly with Yushi Liang on the lower right side, and three young men and women were sitting on the upper side. , among the three men, the woman among them is the most eye-catching among the other two men. The woman is wearing a light blue skirt, her beautiful face has a cold aura, and there is a green jade pendant hanging from her earlobe, which is shaking slightly. , there was a crisp jade sound, and a touch of coldness suddenly appeared...
"Three real people, I wonder if they can find out where the treasure is in a few days."
Liang Yushi wiped the cold sweat from his fat face and asked humbly. He recalled the scene when he saw the Jurchen who was above him that day. When he saw her appearance, he was so shocked that he didn't know how high the sky was. He asked her to sleep with him, but he was still frightened when he thought about the consequences. . .
"You seem to be in a hurry, Mr. Liang, do you want to teach me what to do?" the woman said coldly.
"No, no, no, Master Luo, I don't mean this. I just have the emperor's orders, so I have to hurry." Hearing the woman's tone, Liang Yushi's fat face was covered with sweat, and his voice became even more humble.
"Forget it, Senior Brother Gu, tell them what we have discovered in recent days. I'm leaving!" After saying that, the woman ignored Liang Yushi and others and left the tent like a gust of wind.
"Okay!" Then the young man in blue robe who was sitting on the right side of the woman said, "In the past few days, we have discovered that Tianyi Shenzang is located thirty miles southeast of the camp."
"Master Gu, can we open the treasure tomorrow?" General Hou asked.
"No." Master Gu said calmly,
"The hiding place here was set up by Emperor Tianyi, the leader of the prehistoric human race, before his death. There are also five large formations he set up inside. We have destroyed four of them, and there is one that is very difficult to break. If this formation is not eliminated, If you go in, you will only narrowly escape death.”
"Master, it's been so long since prehistoric times, there should be nothing going on." Liang Yushi asked in a low voice.
"Liang Yushi must have underestimated Emperor Tianyi. Emperor Tianyi is the ancestor of the immortal cultivators in the world and the leader of the human race. He has no one before or since. When the demon king was released and the three demon emperors under him commanded the demon race to invade the human world, Emperor Tianyi fought hard against Shi Xue, and at the price of his death, severely damaged Shi Xie, and sealed him back to the demon world, so that the human world could continue.
The roots of the true methods we practice today are all changes passed down by Emperor Tianyi. Even if the great formation he set up has gone through thousands of years of changes in the prehistoric, ancient, and medieval times, it will still have a certain effectiveness. If it were in its heyday, , our faction will never have the idea to go here. If Liang Yushi wants to go, I can send you in. "
Gu Zhenren's eyes flashed as he stared at Liang Yushi and said.
"Haha, the real person is joking. Please keep this small life as a low-ranking official." Liang Yushi said with a smile.
"Two real men, is there really no way to break this last formation? The imperial capital is pressing hard. News has been sent that the Qimu Empire has sent people to intercept Hu." At this time, General Hou asked again. .
"We have exhausted what we have learned and have no choice but to go back to the master and ask the master to help." This Master Gu shook his head and said.
"Is this the only way..."
"Wait a minute, Senior Brother Gu, have you forgotten that there is another way to break the formation here?" At this time, another young man in purple robe sitting on the left of Zhenren Gu suddenly said. The tone was very gloomy, making people feel very uncomfortable.
"Master Shen really has a way. It's great. I don't know what it is." Liang Yushi couldn't help but smile after hearing this.
"That is the method of saving lives of thousands of souls." Master Shen said gloomily.
"Wait a minute, Junior Brother Shen, although I don't know why your master, Uncle Liu, wants to teach you the Thousand Souls Life-saving Technique, haven't we discussed that the Thousand Souls Life-transmitting Technique is harmful to the world and is a heretical technique and cannot be used. , when we go back and ask the head master to break the formation in person, don't mention this method again." When Master Shen said the method of killing thousands of souls, Master Gu suddenly said sternly.
"Master, I don't know how this method of killing thousands of souls can harm the world." Liang Yushi asked.
"According to legend, this technique was created by Jueming Tianzun, a disciple of Emperor Tianyi in ancient times. The performer uses a living person as an intermediary to summon a thousand evil spirits from the ghost world to rush into the body. Those who rush into the body will turn into blood. This blood has boundless power. The powerful resentment can break through all magic circles and spells, and it is a recognized forbidden technique." Gu Zhenren explained.
"Furthermore, this formation was set up by Emperor Tianyi. We conservatively estimate that at least a hundred sacrifices will be needed to break the formation." Master Shen added grimly.
