In the huge canyon, a huge city stood majestically amidst the biting cold wind and snow.
on the city wall,
Two middle-aged men wearing white armor leaned against the frozen battlements and chatted wordlessly:
"Lao Li, when do you think our life will end?"
When Lao Li heard this, he turned his eyes, put his hand into the lining of Qu Jiang's armor, fumbled twice, took out a small wooden box, and waved it in front of the other party:
"Wang Cheng, please stop whining and nagging like a bitch all day long. How about one?"
Wang Cheng looked at the wooden box and his eyes lit up slightly:
"Hey, Old Li, there aren't many rations for this stuff. We've been out here for more than half a year, and yet you still have such a good thing? You couldn't have used your military merit to find logistics, right?"
As he spoke, Wang Cheng stared at the wooden box and licked his lips that were dry due to the cold:
"Is your military exploits so wasted?"
"How is that possible? I'm still waiting for this battle to be over to be promoted to General of the Ya with military merit."
Lao Li chuckled, the faint folds on his face folded together, and he smiled very slyly: "You don't have access to cigarettes. There are many people who don't smoke cigarettes in the future, so just exchange them for some wine and meat." .”
After saying that, he opened the wooden box, threw one to Lao Li, lit one of his own fire sticks, and threw the fire stick down the city wall.
The burning fire sticks fell along the frozen city wall, and the light of the fire dimly lit up the wind and snow, revealing the flesh-and-blood Beijing built under the city.
The corpses of countless barbarian women and children were piled up into mountains and frozen into strange ice sculptures in the wind and snow.
However, both of them were not surprised by this.
They had to live in this barbarian holy city, and the plague would easily breed when there were too many corpses, so they moved all the corpses of the barbarians in the city to the outside of the city and built a Jingguan.
The smoke mixed with the heat quickly dissipated. Lao Li stared at the Beijing view below and suddenly whispered:
"By the way, Wang Cheng, I remember it was said in the military discipline manual that whenever a temple is built, the body needs to be disposed of first."
"Yes, because too many corpses will breed ghost fog, but it doesn't matter in the snowfield."
Wang Cheng practiced fire-based skills, snapped his fingers with a "pop" sound, and a flame appeared on his fingertips, lit the cigarette at the corner of his mouth and smiled:
"Anyway, this is the territory of the barbarians. Even if ghost mist breeds, they will be unlucky.
"Oh, Lord Marquis has already slaughtered them all, and he still has to deal with the ghost mist. These barbarians probably won't be able to recover within hundreds of years."
Speaking of which,
Wang Cheng clicked his tongue, took two puffs of tobacco, and began to ramble again:
"But Lao Li, you said that if this barbarian is completely destroyed, how can we get military glory in the future? We have been military commanders for almost ten years. If we haven't been promoted after this battle, then we will Aren’t you going to be a music player for the rest of your life?”
Old Li asked with a smile:
"Are you saying this to want us, the Marquis, to play the same trick of raising a bandit to respect himself?"
Hearing this, Wang Cheng's expression changed, he glared at Lao Li and pointed at his nose:
"Li Yongliang, I'm warning you, if we hadn't been on good terms, I would have whipped you right now."
After saying that, Wang Cheng's expression returned to the resentment he had just before:
"However, the Marquis and his men continue to hunt down the barbarians. What's the point of leaving us in this shabby city? We are guarding the capital every day and looking at this snowy bird every day. There is not even a prostitute in the camp."
Lao Li held a cigarette between his fingertips and smiled:
"Who said there are no camp prostitutes? Aren't there females among the barbarian prisoners waiting for interrogation? From what Bai Jiaqi said, the experience seems to be not bad."
"."
Wang Cheng was stunned, and the muscles on his face twitched slightly.
After marching all year round, we see a lot of flesh and blood, and it is no surprise that we have lost limbs and arms. We are dancing on the fingertips of death every day. Everyone is more or less perverted in their hearts.
But barbarians.
This white song will be really fun to play.
Lao Li took a deep breath from his cigarette, puffed out smoke, and suddenly said:
"Don't tell anyone else about this. General Baiqu will tell me. If word gets out, he will probably fight me tooth and nail."
"Don't worry." Wang Cheng snorted softly: "I'm very strict with my mouth."
Lao Li clicked and took you to vote, then finished the cigarette in one gulp:
"Our two troops were the first to defeat this barbarian holy city. If nothing else happens, they should be promoted. Don't complain. You must give other brothers some opportunities to make contributions."
"Shhh."
Wang Cheng suddenly interrupted Lao Li and signaled him to be silent.
In Lao Li's confusion, Wang Cheng pulled out the saber from his waist.
It hit the ground with a "swish" sound.
Lao Li frowned and asked aloud:
"What are you"
"See for yourself."
Wang Cheng looked at the saber stuck on the city wall with solemn eyes.
There was silence for a moment on the city wall,
Under the gaze of the two men, the spiritual blade ring knife embedded in the ground gradually began to shake.
Like the tremors caused by thousands of horses, the ice crystals on the battlements cracked, and the heavy snow fell towards the city. The figures of Wang Cheng and Lao Li began to sway with the earthquake. The gate tower where they were standing was like this. Cracks gradually appeared in the tremors.
Looking back towards the city, many houses have collapsed in this kind of shaking.
After ten breaths,
The snow drifted away along with the gray smoke from the collapsed building, and everything returned to calm.
On top of the solid city wall, they looked at each other for a moment.
Wang Cheng pulled out his sword, put it into its scabbard, exhaled and said with a smile:
"I thought it was an enemy attack, but it turned out to be an earth dragon turning over."
Lao Li glanced at the relieved Wang Cheng, touched the goatee on his chin, and twitched the corners of his mouth:
"Wang Cheng, when the earth dragon turns over, it will cause a shock of source energy, but that shock is messy."
"."
Wang Cheng frowned when he heard this, closed his eyes for a moment, then opened his eyes with some confusion.
The source of Qi does indeed oscillate, but it is not irregular, but spreads upward in a regular manner.
It's very weak, even so weak that you can't detect it without careful sensing, but this kind of fluctuation does exist.
Lao Li stared at the snowstorm below the city and said in a solemn voice:
"There seems to be something underground here."
As he spoke, he looked at Wang Cheng with excited eyes:
"Wang Cheng, you stay here while I take a hundred white-armored cavalry to report to the Marquis."
"Huh? Why don't I go?"
"." Lao Li.
Blood Demon Cave.
The white light dissipated, the shock disappeared, and when everything returned to calm, there was no longer the earth-shattering roar of the ink snake behind him.
in silence,
Bai Muxi also stopped and glanced at the young master who was hugging her tightly. He hesitated slightly but did not remind him loudly.
Being held by Princess Bai Muxi, Xu Yuan adjusted his posture slightly, holding one side of her shoulder with one hand, and hugging her delicate jade back from her armpit with the other, and naturally rested his chin on Bai Muxi's Wanruo Boneless shoulders.
Bai Muxi's body trembled slightly, but she didn't resist and stood there obediently without moving.
The warm and soft touch was transmitted through the woman's thin gauze, and Xu Yuan could feel the softness of her squeezing and deforming on his chest, as well as the fragrance emanating from her hair.
The reason why he didn't go down was not that he enjoyed it.
At a time of life and death, who in the right mind would think about these things?
He always pays attention to urgency and authority in everything. He is waiting for Li Qingyan's signal.
Although the power of his 1.2 million taels was astonishing, if he failed to kill the strange ghost ink snake, they would have to continue running.
Going down will only increase the risk, it is better to continue hanging on.
"."
Time passes minute by minute,
Suddenly there was a soft sound of footsteps in the darkness.
Soon, a beautiful figure in red walked out of the darkness.
Even after experiencing such a fierce battle just now, her red robe remained intact without any damage.
Well, it seems that with this Black Death Armor, it will be difficult to see Her Royal Highness the Princess in battle-damaged clothing in the future.
Just as she was thinking about it, Xu Yuan suddenly caught her sight.
A pair of glowing red phoenix eyes were half-squinted. Li Qingyan stared at the two people who were still hugging each other. The lotus boots stepped on the ground gently and steadily, but the red sword in his hand glowed with an eerie cold light.
The cold gaze seemed to say nothing, but it seemed to say everything.
"."
Looking at each other for a moment,
Bai Muxi was very sensible and leaned over to put Xu Yuan down:
"Sir, it's safe now."
Under the gaze of Li Qingyan's red eyes, Xu Yuan coughed lightly, stood up straight and patted his robe:
"I told you that there is no chance that the black snake will survive. I asked you to let me down and protect me."
"."
Bai Muxi immediately bowed her head:
"My lord, please forgive me, it was Mu Xi who was wrong."
Xu Yuan waved his hand nonchalantly:
"You are also concerned about my son's safety, so I will go first this time."
"The double act is quite skillful."
As he spoke, Li Qingyan's ice-like vision melted instantly, and a smile flashed across his eyes: "I didn't say anything, so why are you so nervous?"
"."
Xu Yuan rolled his eyes in his heart.
He couldn't figure out what the princess was thinking.
He seems to be very possessive, but in some aspects he doesn't seem to care very much.
Gathering his mind, Xu Yuan stepped forward and asked softly:
"Why are you nervous? It's you who obeys the authority in emergencies."
Saying that, Xu Yuan glanced at Li Qingyan up and down, and asked softly: "Are you not hurt?"
Of course he knew that Li Qingyan was injured, and it was not serious, but knowing was one thing and asking about it was another.
Women all need care.
Li Qingyan's phoenix eyes were curved, and a cold light danced out of the red sword in his hand. He put the sword into its sheath and made a majestic and valiant movement:
"The meridians are somewhat damaged, but it's not too serious. It can be restored to its original state within a few days of adjusting your breath."
"It's better to be careful. You are our only hope to get out now."
Xu Yuan raised his hand and wiped away the blood on her lips affectionately. He turned his other hand and a jade bottle appeared in his hand:
"This is the three-line protective pill. It should help your injury."
Li Qingyan's eyes flashed with surprise, and he didn't open his hand, looking at him with a smile on his lips:
"Why do I think you have everything?"
Xu Yuan smiled and blinked:
"The sect spent 30 million to buy the Yunqi bomb. The money was not enough. Most of it was converted into various materials. I should have most of the things you can think of here."
Saying that, Xu Yuan chuckled:
"Princess, sometimes money can really cost you your life."
"Virtue."
Li Qingyan chuckled and spread his hands in front of him: "If you go out, I will pay you back."
"The family can't repay it no matter what they talk about, but if you really must repay it, you might as well pay it in person."
The black snake was wiped out, and Xu Yuan was in a good mood. He placed the jade bottle in her palm while joking.
But at this moment, he suddenly noticed bright red blood on her palm.
He frowned slightly, grabbed her wrist, and then pulled her red-sleeved robe upwards.
The white lotus-rooted arm came into view, with several hideous wounds and blood flowing down the white forearm.
Xu Yuan raised his eyes and looked at Li Qingyan, frowning:
"Didn't you say that only the meridians were damaged?"
Li Qingyan looked at the concerned eyes and replied with a smile:
"The black snake is very powerful. I had to resist in order to delay its pursuit. It was only broken a few times. It's just a minor injury."
"How many times has it been broken?" Xu Yuan's eyes narrowed, and he grabbed her wrist slightly: "Is this considered a minor injury? I have it here."
"No."
Li Qingyan withdrew his hand and said nonchalantly:
"I entered the Tao through martial arts. Although I am not as good as those of the White Walkers, my body's recovery ability is extremely strong. The pain caused by this kind of trauma will not affect my combat power, but will make me more awake."
"."
When Xu Yuan heard this, he stared at her strangely.
wide awake? It's arousal.
Xu Yuan smiled playfully, saying that it would be useless to talk about it. You will know it later, so he turned to ask:
"Where's the Black Snake's magic crystal?"
Li Qingyan ignored his ambiguous gaze and glanced back at the darkness of the corridor:
"I haven't had time to get it yet."
"Go there immediately."
Xu Yuan opened his arms to Li Qingyan without thinking: "The noise here is so loud, the nearby White Walkers may have been attracted, so we have to get it quickly and leave."
"You don't seem to resist at all when I hold you in my arms."
Li Qingyan rolled her eyes at him and naturally leaned over to hug Princess Xu Yuan: "I don't see any of the man's self-esteem in you."
"A man can bend and stretch."
While Xu Yuan hooked his arms around her soft shoulders, he retorted: "When I reach the beginning of my cultivation, Your Highness, you will know what it means to be a man."
"Tough talk."
As soon as he finished speaking, Li Qingyan stepped down, Bai Muxi followed, and the three of them disappeared instantly.
A few breaths after the three disappeared, a strange blood-colored mist spread rapidly from the depths of the Blood Nest, swallowing up the original location of the three in an instant.
Standing at the exit of the corridor,
Xu Yuan looked at the huge artificial cave in front of him and clicked his tongue slightly.
Money is indeed a good thing.
The incision of the cave formed by the source crystal bomb was extremely smooth. If the shock wave caused by the explosion had not shattered the boulders on the inner wall, the cave would have been an almost perfect sphere.
Soon, the three people's eyes were fixed on the bottom of the spherical cave.
There, there was a pool of charred long strips lying quietly.
White Walker Ink Snake.
At this moment, it no longer looked as ferocious as before, lying motionless on the ground, its tough snake body exuding a "sizzling" burnt smell.
Since it was facing such a large source crystal bomb, it was still not dead.
The charred flesh and blood are working hard to grow new shoots.
But it is a pity that the surrounding black death germ carpet has been directly vaporized in the explosion just now. Without the supply of black death germ carpet, it simply does not have enough vitality to restore its body.
However, as if inspired by this metamorphosis, the surrounding black death carpet began to slowly move toward the cave.
It's just that this speed is extremely slow, no faster than an ant.
The three of them jumped down,
Protecting the two girls in front of him, Xu Yuan slowly walked towards the ink snake.
As if aware of the approach of a living person, the burnt black strips let out a faint neighing sound as a warning.
Seeing that the other party could still make a sound, Xu Yuan asked the two women to stop first, and Li Qingyan then used the fiery red sword energy containing Tao Yun to hit the black snake.
It's always a good idea to err on the side of caution.
"Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!"
Rays of fiery red light illuminated the dark cave, and dozens of sword lights swept across the fragile body of the black snake one by one.
The black snake also made no more noise.
But even so, the three of them still didn't get close.
Li Qingyan raised his jade hand and pointed it at Black Snake. Fiery red energy surged out and turned into a giant hand, directly lifting Black Snake's body from a distance of a hundred meters.
Then,
A squeeze with both hands.
"Pfft!"
Blood and flesh splashed everywhere, the black snake's flesh was completely turned into flesh, and a crystal as black as ink and glowing with black light was suspended in the air.
Li Qingyan raised his hand, looked back and asked softly:
"Changtian, is this the magic crystal?"
Xu Yuan's eyes flashed:
"This should be it."
Hearing this,
Li Qingyan no longer hesitated, and pulled her jade hand back, and the magic crystal was instantly pulled into her palm by Yuan Qi.
Warm it in your hands and feel it a little, and you can detect the strangely rich vitality on it.
After handing the magic crystal to Xu Yuan and taking a long breath, Li Qingyan pursed his lips and smiled:
"let's go"
"Son."
Before the words fell,
Bai Muxi, who had been standing quietly beside the two of them, interrupted Li Qingyan with a voice that was a little disbelieving: "Jianyuan. The Jianyuan of the White Walkers."
"."
Li Qingyan frowned slightly.
Xu Yuan subconsciously looked back, and his blood-colored pupils suddenly shrank.
I just don’t know when,
The darkness all around has disappeared,
But what was replaced by it was an extremely rich blood-colored mist.
