Nanling Pass!
Xiongguan is majestic, like a long dragon lying on the mountains.
The hard rock has left traces of erosion over the years.
The guard general of Nanling Pass is tall and powerful. Standing on the city wall, wearing armor, he looks like an iron tower.
There is a long sword hanging on the waist. At this moment, one hand is pressed on the hilt of the sword. The scarlet cloak on the back is as bright as blood, and it is constantly shaking in the northwest wind.
The guard of Nanling Gate looked into the distance, and finally slowly turned his gaze away, and then began to inspect the surroundings carefully, inspecting knives, guns, and arrows.
This is something that must be done every day and never neglected.
The Holy One entrusted him with the important task of guarding against chieftains from all over the country, so the Nanling Gate Guards naturally had to do a good job.
Finally, standing next to the city wall, the guard of Nanling Pass had loosened the hilt of his sword, pressed one hand on the city wall, looked down at the front, and said proudly: "How do you think, Master Immortal, you are watching this pass?"
A Taoist with white skin and a Taoist robe on the side flicked the dust in his hand at this moment, and wisps of clouds emerged. He was already three feet above the ground, standing in the mid-air like a cloud in the mist, but slightly lower.
This scene looks full of fairy spirit, but the Taoist's figure is plump and round, so his movements look a bit funny.
Fatty Bai raised his eyes and looked down. He could see that there was only one road facing Nanling Pass, with cliffs on both sides. The walls were thousands of feet tall and extremely dangerous. Ordinary people would never be able to climb over them. Nanling Pass was about three meters high. Zhang, it is also built on the middle of the mountain. It is already condescending, and the city wall is also tall. The combination of the two further highlights the steepness of Nanling Pass.
He couldn't help but praise: "Nanling Pass is indeed the most powerful pass in the world. One man can guard it against ten thousand people and cannot open it."
"The general is guarding this place. Even if there are 10,000 invading enemies, the general only needs 500 soldiers to make this pass unbreakable."
The guard general of Nanling Gate laughed and said: "It's missing."
"Even if there are 100,000 enemies and I have 500 soldiers, I can guard this pass and prevent the enemy from crossing the Nanling Pass even half a step."
The guard of Nanling Gate raised his hand and pointed forward and said: "Look."
"There are cliffs on both sides, but the road in the middle is also relatively narrow. There are hundreds of thousands of enemies coming, but they can't fully spread out. At most, a few hundred people can attack the city."
"But this general is condescending. As long as a hundred people are enough to block it, the three hundred people will be divided into three teams and start taking turns. The remaining two hundred will act as a reserve team to save the situation when the situation is critical."
"Five hundred soldiers are enough, but Your Majesty is an unprecedented wise king and has given me three thousand men."
"The enemies outside the pass are just some chieftains. They are not strong in combat. They can pull out at most 10,000 to 20,000 untrained soldiers. It is wishful thinking to break through the pass."
The guard general of Nanling Gate turned around, looked at Fatty Bai with bright eyes and said, "The Immortal Master is a master of Qi training."
"Nowadays, the imperial court is very hungry for talents. As long as the immortal master is willing to set foot in the mortal world, he will naturally gain glory and wealth."
The fat white man shook his fly whisk and said calmly: "People who are poor and outsiders have long looked down on power and wealth."
"For Pindao, all this is just smoke and smoke in the past."
"The general invites me to make wine and drink tea. Of course I am willing, but there is no need to talk about other things."
The guard general of Nanling Gate looked solemn, bowed solemnly and said: "The immortal master is a true cultivator, not comparable to those fake cultivators who are greedy for wealth and power."
"But the Immortal Master doesn't know something. Now the Holy One likes to practice Taoism, so monks from all over the world gathered in the imperial capital."
"Of course, most of them are fake cultivators. They use the Holy Emperor's appreciation to interfere with the government affairs, causing unrest in the court and boiling the sea."
"It is exactly what a true cultivator like the Immortal Master is needed to enter the imperial capital to bring order out of chaos and bring peace and order to the world."
Fatty Bai shook his head and said, "The general still can't see through it."
"No matter how rich and noble you are in the world, you cannot live forever."
"Destined to be just the moon in the mirror and the flower in the water."
"If you are greedy for enjoyment today, you will turn into a withered skeleton in a hundred years."
"But the poor Taoist devotes himself to cultivating Taoism. After more than a hundred years, he is still young and eternal. He drinks strong wine and plays with beauties."
"You want to recommend a poor man to the court, get credit for it, and then transfer him from Nanling Pass. This is a big mistake."
"The poor Taoist is devoted to the Tao, but the Vajra cannot deprive him of his ambition."
"It seems that the fate between Pindao and the general has ended."
The clouds under Fat Bai's feet continued to dissipate, and finally fell slowly. As the fly whisk flicked, three thousand silk threads were flying. After a final bow, he turned around and planned to leave.
Fatty Bai had only taken three steps when a cry came out: "Master Immortal, wait a minute."
"If the Immortal Master is not willing to enter the court, then I will not mention it again."
"The Immortal Master is a rare true cultivator in the world. It is my honor to meet the Immortal Master."
"A banquet has been prepared today, and the immortal master has been invited to the table. I am going to get drunk with the immortal master before we retire."
Fatty Bai smiled and said, "That's it, I'm a poor man!"
Fatty Bai suddenly couldn't say the rest of his words because it suddenly got dark.
A huge shadow shrouded the sky and the earth, covering Nanling Pass all of a sudden. This made Fatty Bai couldn't help but raise his eyes and look towards the sky. At this sight, Fatty Bai's eyes burst out with energy.
The guard of Nanling Pass on the side staggered and sat down on the ground.
He looked at the sky in disbelief and said in shock: "This."
"How can this be?"
"Walking in the air is a method only available to immortal masters. Why are there so many immortal masters now?"
There were densely packed figures in the sky. It was hard to tell how many there were at the moment, but there were at least eight or nine hundred, or even thousands.
How had the Nanling Pass guard ever seen such a battle?
I have not seen as many immortal masters in this life as I have seen at this moment.
But immediately, the Nanling Pass guard reacted.
Immortal masters are rare, and any Qi practitioner is a great monk.
If the immortal masters from all over the world gathered together, there would be so many qi-training and major cultivators, but this is only theoretical, and it is absolutely impossible to happen in reality. Moreover, these people, their attire, are obviously sergeants, and they are all ordinary people. , it was with the help of the power of some kind of treasure that they were able to fall from the sky.
Immediately realized that it was not good.
Nanling Pass is the most important pass in the world. One man can guard it and ten thousand men cannot open it.
But it can defend against enemies on the ground, but it has no air defense capability. The enemy is now falling from the sky, which makes Nanling Pass useless.
The guard general of Nanling Pass looked ugly, stood up quickly, and shouted loudly: "Beat the drums, gather the troops!"
"Get ready to fight!"
Before the guard of Nanling Gate could stand firm, he felt something weak and insubstantial begin to wrap around him.
He couldn't help but lower his head and saw that the fly whisk seemed to come to life, like a rope, now wrapped around the armor. This made the Nanling Pass guard look at the immortal master. Now the fat immortal master took action and tied up Nanling. After guarding Lingguan, he stretched out his hand and pulled without hesitation, and his spiritual power began to be released continuously. The guard of Nanlingguan seemed to have no weight.
He was directly thrown up by the Fat Immortal Master and was floating in the air. The Fat Immortal Master was agile and strong, not clumsy because of his round body. As a nimble fat man, the Fat Immortal Master quickly rushed down the city wall. Then he jumped up and was already sitting on the horse's back.
The guard of Nanling Pass on the other side also fell on another horse. The Fat Immortal Master spat out a strong wind, like an invisible blade, and instantly cut off the rope that tied the horse. He pulled the reins. He took another horse and rushed out.
He rushed out of Nanling Pass in no time, and the time it took him to go back and forth was less than the time for a cup of tea.
The guard of Nanling Pass, who had been dizzy, when he came back to his senses, he had already discovered that Nanling Pass was behind him, and someone in Nanling Pass was shouting loudly.
"The general ran away."
"The general abandoned the city and ran away."
The Nanling Gatekeeper immediately shouted loudly: "Master Immortal, put me down."
"Abandoning the city and fleeing is a capital crime."
While the Fat Immortal Master kept swinging his whip and whipping the horses to make them run faster, he answered on the other side: "You will not necessarily die if you abandon the city, but you will definitely die if you stay in the city."
"The general and Pindao hit it off immediately. How could Pindao let the general die here?"
"General, stop talking. I saved the general just to repay the general's courtesy."
"The general will not be charged any reward."
The face of the Nanling Gatekeeper has become distorted. Do you want to say thank you?
Looking at the fat immortal master in front of me, I couldn't help but feel angry. I really wanted to kill him with a knife.
Suppressing his anger, the guard of Nanling Pass said in a deep voice: "I also ask the Immortal Master to let me go, regardless of whether I am dead or alive."
The Fat Immortal Master was dissatisfied and said: "General, why don't you listen to your advice?"
"The enemy fell from the sky. Even you were shocked and fell to the ground. Ordinary soldiers must be more afraid. They already regard the enemy as a god and have no intention of resisting."
"Morale is low, coupled with the enemy's surprise attack, it comes too suddenly and too quickly."
"The general can't gather his troops at all. Now that the soldiers are scattered, the enemy can defeat them one by one."
"This is already doomed. We haven't said how many of the three thousand men the general has."
"Dachen has been a country for hundreds of years, and has gone through three dynasties including Taizu, Taizong, and Gaozong. The peace has lasted for a long time, and military discipline has deteriorated. I don't know how many generals are eating empty pay. Even if the generals are not such scum, it will be difficult to reverse this trend in a short time."
"So from three thousand soldiers, two thousand is considered good."
"Are these two thousand soldiers capable of fighting?"
"No, there must be many old, weak, sick and disabled among them. If we remove these people, there will only be a few hundred who can fight."
"Can the general win with this?"
At this time, the color on Nanling Gate's face had all gone. His face was now pale, and he solemnly said: "We will definitely lose."
"But my family has been favored by the emperor, so how can I run away without fighting when encountering the enemy? This has ruined my family's reputation for many years."
"Even if you lose, you will fight to the death. This is how you are a member of the Yang family."
"Being worthy of the reputation of our ancestors."
"Don't bring shame to our ancestors."
Fat Immortal Master said dissatisfiedly: "You should be louder, the wind is too strong, I can't hear you clearly at all."
"It is better to die than to live. As long as people live, there is hope."
"This time the enemy's magic troops descended from the sky. Not only the general did not expect it, but the court also did not expect it, so it is not the general's fault."
"Presumably the imperial court knows the general's difficulties and will not blame him."
The Nanling Gatekeeper immediately rejected the sermon: "No."
"Abandoning the city and fleeing is a capital crime. Regardless of whether there are extenuating circumstances or not, the general will die."
The Fat Immortal Master added: "Who said that the general abandoned the city and fled? At that time, the enemy attacked. The general fought bloody battles with the enemy for three days. In the end, the deputy general colluded with the enemy and opened the city gate privately. The general was outnumbered, so he was defeated. "
The Nanling Gatekeeper's face flushed, he was embarrassed.
But a pair of eyes showed a beating heart, and finally he whispered: "Is this possible?"
"No, definitely not."
"Liu Zhoumu is not a mediocre person. He is in his prime and strong, so he cannot be deceived."
Fat Immortal Master laughed and said: "Liu Zhoumu doesn't believe this. Do you believe that the enemy fell from the sky and directly broke through Nanling Pass?"
The Nanling Gatekeeper immediately understood that it was easier to believe the fabricated fact than the real situation. After all, who can believe that the enemy can fly.
If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, the guard at Nanling Pass wouldn't have believed it.
After being guided by Fat Immortal Master, the Nanling Pass guard no longer panicked and said in a deep voice: "Nanling County is mainly Nanling Pass, and the rear is Changshui County."
"Changshui County has long water that can stop the enemy. No, the enemy can fly. There is no danger to defend Changshui County."
"We can't go directly to Guan County. In this case, the Liuzhou Pastoral Association will directly kill the general. We will go to Changshui County first. When Changshui County is conquered, we will go to Guan County together."
"Liu Zhoumu wouldn't believe me if I were alone, but with the addition of the governor of Changshui County, Liu Zhoumu would have to believe it."
The Fat Immortal Master shook his head and said: "If the general does this, wouldn't he be sorry to the court?"
"If Changshui County is notified by the general and starts preparing for war, then even if the enemy falls from the sky, they will still have the strength to fight. It is not certain who will win and who will lose."
The guard general of Nanling County shook his head and said: "Changshui County cannot guard it."
"The world has been at peace for too long. Even if there was a rebellion in Tai'an County, it happened many years ago. Nanling Pass was reorganized by the general and barely maintained its combat power. Changshui County will only get worse."
"Now among Guanzhou, only the state soldiers from Guan County, the capital, have some fighting strength."
"This is also because the state has 30,000 soldiers. Even if we eliminate the old and weak, remove the non-existent people, and select the strong among them, we can still draw out thousands of people."
The Fat Immortal Master sighed and said, "I am a poor Taoist who is from outside the world. Why do I end up in such troubles?"
"us."
Before Fat Immortal Master could finish speaking, the guard general of Nanling Pass shouted: "Please Immortal Master, please save my life."
"As long as I can survive this time, my Yang family will worship the immortal master for generations."
"My Yang family rests with the country. I will die a hundred years later, but there are still descendants of my Yang family, and they will respect the immortal master as much as I do."
The Fat Immortal Master scolded and said: "Is Pindao a person who covets wealth? Pindao just fell in love with you at first sight, and now he leaves you halfway. This shows that Pindao is ungrateful, so Pindao will help you again."
"Your method is wrong. We rushed into Changshui County and directly tied up the governor of Changshui County. When the enemy comes to attack in large numbers, we can just run away."
"The governor of Changshui County abandoned the city and fled. This is a capital crime, so he can be of the same mind as us."
"Otherwise, the governor of Changshui County will only be defeated in the battle, and his crime will be much lighter than that of the general. He may not really help the general when the time comes."
The guard general of Nanling Pass said with great joy: "Master Immortal is worthy of being a true cultivator."
"As long as the governor of Changshui County and this general are of the same mind, even Liu Zhoumu will not dare to touch us."
"I, the Yang family, are generals, and the governor of Changshui County comes from a rich family. If we all die, what will the court think?"
"Is Liu Zhoumu going to rebel?"
During the conversation, after the Nanling Gatekeeper was freed, he immediately clamped his legs between the horse's belly and urged the horse to speed up.
The two of them rushed directly to the front of Changshui County. Seeing the crowds filling the streets, the Nanling Gatekeeper shouted loudly: "Get out of here."
The guard general of Nanling Gate is wearing armor with a sword hanging on his waist. He is standing under the sun. The armor reflects the light and the scarlet cloak is shaking behind him. He can be said to be majestic.
With his appearance, everyone knows that he has a huge background, and no one dares to offend him.
They were rushing all the way, with people and horses tumbling down on the road, causing great chaos, but the Nanling Gate guard didn't care about it. He went all the way to the prefect's house and looked at the guarding soldiers. The Nanling Gate guard took the lead in raising his whip and scolded. : "I am the general guarding Nanling Pass. I have important military information and I want to see the prefect."
"Everyone else, please get out of here."
No one dared to step forward, and the Nanling Pass guard rushed directly into the prefect's mansion.
One by one, the soldiers stared at the domineering Nanling Pass guard, and each one just gritted his teeth and cursed secretly, not daring to stop him.
The governor of Changshui County also walked out of the room early because of the commotion. Looking at the rushing guard of Nanling Pass, he directly scolded: "Presumptuous."
"I must submit a memorial and explain everything to the Holy One, and you will be relieved of all duties."
"These are troubled times, and warriors are so domineering."
Before the prefect of Changshui County finished speaking, the guard general of Nanling Gate showed a ferocious smile, stretched out his broad palms forward, and grabbed the neck of the prefect of Changshui County, like an eagle catching a chicken, and lifted it up. Looking at the governor of Changshui County, he said furiously: "Preface."
"You have no chance."
Fat Immortal Master came a step later and said in a low voice: "The witnesses have been dealt with."
"Everyone knows that the general came to see the prefect, but they don't know that the general imprisoned the prefect."
The guard general of Nanling Gate breathed a sigh of relief, took off his belt, and sat under the corner. His body softened and he was already paralyzed. He wiped his sweat and said, "Then wait for the enemy to come, and then we will start running." road."
"Don't let go of the governor, I don't want to listen to his nonsense now."
"If this person is loyal to the imperial court, then we will send him on his way and we will run away on our own."
The Fat Immortal Master stretched out his hand and stuffed the prefect's mouth into the cloth. After blocking the other person's mouth, he couldn't help but look at the sky. It was so smooth, as if there was divine help.
Fatty Bai knew that this was not because he was strong, but because his elder brother was too lucky.
After Qianlong became successful, it began to gain momentum, and naturally it was overwhelming.
There is a real dragon pressing down on Dayan, and coming to this secret world is simply overwhelming.
Too strong.
It’s also a little weirder.
It's time to kill the donkey.
The Fat Immortal Master smiled innocently, and at some point he walked to the guard of Nanling Pass. The fly whisk in his hand was like a poisonous snake, and he instantly strangled the neck of the guard of Nanling Pass, as did the prefect on the other side.
This is a great gift for my eldest brother.
It's time for him to go see Liu Zhoumu.
