Then he kept this strange situation in mind and entered the city with a puff of sleeves.
When she came this time, in addition to going to the front lines of the battlefield to slay demons, she also had a secret letter with her, which was entrusted by the master and needed to be handed over to Master Donglin. Therefore, the first thing she did after entering the city was to first Go and see some real babies stationed in the city.
When she came to the General's Mansion again, Zhao Chun was no longer the little kid who had built the foundation before. The guards guarding the gate knew that the person coming was not an ordinary person just by smelling the powerful aura. After reporting her inside, they welcomed her in with great respect. Deliver it personally to the courtyard where Master Donglin lives.
As early as a few months ago, Donglin knew about Zhao Chun's coming to Dongming Pass. He was also very appreciative and surprised by this genius who became a blockbuster decades ago and became the disciple of Dongxu Master. At this moment, after hearing Bingwei's report, Immediately he was in the hall and saw her figure appearing, making a salute with her hands. He smiled and waved his hands and said: "No need to be polite, hurry up and take a seat!"
Zhao Chun didn't dare to make any mistake, so he quickly took the secret letter and handed it to Donglin. He nodded and said, "I was delayed for a few days at the Yuzhou border. Fortunately, the secret letter was not damaged."
Donglin received the letter and did not shy away from her at all. He opened it and read it. Finally, he burned it and said calmly: "The situation at Dongming Pass has become tense recently, so we asked the sect for some gates." The method of setting up formations and smelting creations is not a precious thing, but if it falls into the hands of someone with intentions, it may cause a lot of trouble. Just as you are coming to understand, the leader asked you to bring it with you. "
Zhao Chun naturally nodded in agreement. Nowadays, the world is in turmoil. If these methods of smelting creation are spread out, there will definitely be chaos.
She then thought of the strange things outside Dongming City, and connected this with the person with ulterior motives in Donglin's mouth. She couldn't help but feel depressed, and said: "Speaking of the recent situation at Dongming Pass, when this junior enters the city today, But I discovered something strange..."
When Donglin heard this, his expression immediately changed. When Zhao Shun told all about the corpse puppet, his face was already ashen.
Dongming Pass is the first checkpoint on the western border. It goes without saying that its status and importance are high. Now that someone is secretly spying on it, the monks in the city are not aware of it at all. If something goes wrong in the future, he will definitely not be able to escape the charge of dereliction of duty, and If the border was lost as a result, countless monks would be plunged into dire straits!
This little anomaly almost chilled his heart!
"You bastard!" Donglin slapped the case angrily. When he turned to look at Zhao Chun, he suppressed some of his anger and said solemnly, "Thank you for informing me about this, little friend. Otherwise, we and Zhenying would have known something was wrong." It’s hard to escape the blame.”
He has been stationed at the border for hundreds of years, and he naturally knows much more about the situation in the wilderness than Zhao Chun. Now after listening to her description and calming down a little, he immediately got a clue: "Among the many evil sects in the wilderness, there is a place It is called Corpse Puppet Valley. The evil cultivators in the valley refine corpse puppets from the corpses of living people or those who have recently died. The higher the cultivation level of the corpse refiner and the more sophisticated the method, the more like the corpse puppets under his hands will be like real people. And if they use essence and blood Refining a blood corpse puppet can even make it completely indistinguishable from ordinary people.
"With this method, this sect once stirred up troubles in the wilderness, killing people and refining corpses everywhere. Until later, it took the idea of my monks from the three states, and attracted the head of the sect to personally take action and kill the two externalized monks of the sect. They were all killed, and this allowed them to completely settle down. During the heyday of this sect, they made numerous enemies in the wilderness. After losing two external monks in the sect, they must have suffered a lot of revenge. Therefore, in the past hundred years, they have been extremely News has come from Shaoyu Corpse Puppet Valley."
At that time, Shi Xiangyuan had just taken over the position of leader, and was about to subdue the sect with thunderous force, when Corpse Puppet Valley also took the initiative to come to the door.
Zhao Shun nodded in response, and then he knew the details of the strange thing he saw today.
"Perhaps it is because our faction has not taken action against it in these years that the Corpse Puppet Valley has another alien intention... If you want to take advantage of the demonic calamity to cause chaos, it depends on whether you have such strength!" Donglin said with anger, but he said This matter was attributed to the old grudge between Xipugu and Zhaoyan.
When Zhao Shun heard this, his heart sank slightly, and he vaguely felt that the matter was not as simple as it seemed. How could a place with a power that even the Exalted Master didn't have the courage to take the initiative to provoke a behemoth like Zhao Yan?
When he thought about it more carefully, Donglin said again:
"If you want to try your skills on that battlefield, you can go to the watchtower in the city. The location of the evil garrison outside the pass is recorded there." The solemn and anxious look in his eyes did not dissipate, "I have other important things to do with you. Several generals have discussed that we can no longer accompany you today."
Although he didn't say what the specific matter was, Zhao Chun knew something about it. It's just because of the abnormal situation outside the city, and I want to follow the clues to catch the real culprit behind it.
However, she did not think that this matter would be possible. Now that the corpse puppet outside the city had been destroyed, the person behind it would definitely be alerted. At least for a long time in the future, the other party would carefully hide their whereabouts, or even simply escape from here. If Donglin and others go to look for them now, there is a high possibility of missing out.
But it would be good to conduct a thorough investigation. After all, who knows if there are other hidden dangers buried in the Valley of the Corpse Puppet?
After this incident, the people in Dongming Guanzhong were afraid and did not dare to think that the iron barrel here was perfect.
She resigned from Donglin and wanted to settle down in the city first.
The evil calamity in Chongxiao lasted for a long time and was probably the worst in history. Zhao Shun had to be prepared to stay in Dongming for a long time. Fortunately, when he went to Minglu Pass for training, he had joined the army. Now he only needs to go forward. If you go to confer a generalship, you can get a mansion in the city.
The combination period corresponds to the position of Zhonglang General. There is no governor at Dongming Pass. Several generals discuss decisions above, and besides the generals, it is the Zhonglang General who has the highest status.
However, Zhao Shun considers herself not a good general in arranging troops. Rather than strategizing and winning a decisive victory thousands of miles away, she is better at killing people herself. Therefore, this time she only wanted to be known as the Zhonglang General and did not To lead troops into battle. With the strength of the demon garrison outside the city, if she was not sure that one person could eradicate them, no matter how many soldiers there were, it would be of no use.
After talking to the person who conferred the title of general, the other party was not suspicious. Since the outbreak of the demonic calamity, many sect disciples have come here to experience slaying demons. Leading troops to fight is not what these monks are good at. , they mostly travel alone or in groups, and these demon-slaying experiences have also greatly eased the situation at Dongming Pass. A powerful genius can even defeat an army of thousands or ten thousand people.
Therefore, Dongming Pass also welcomes sect disciples to come here to practice, and even specially opens a watchtower for them to take over the mission of slaying demons and register their merits.
The person who conferred the title of general probably recognized Zhao Chun as such a person.
