But at the moment, Li Xiu doesn't seem to be optimistic about the Beiminghai side. He is thinking about how to add fuel to the fire. Anyway, there will be chaos sooner or later, and Li Xiu is not afraid of more chaos.
At this moment, Li Xiu saw the masters from the General's Mansion and Tiandu Yuan retreating in large numbers. The people in the lead, surrounded by many masters, quickly retreated into Beiguan Pass. Although it was dark, Li Xiu Xiu sensed the aura of his old friend, and the woman being surrounded should be Russell Jing.
The original daughter of the King of Hell had a very tough background. Even if Li Ruocheng had not abandoned demons and practiced Taoism, he would have been replaced by her sooner or later, Li Xiu secretly thought.
Speaking of which, Beihaiguan, the first gateway to the north of the country, is not as good as Guyangguan in terms of geographical advantages. There is a horizontal line of about one hundred miles in the middle of the dangerous peaks of Beihaiguan. This open area has been built with an iron wall since the founding of Bu Le Kingdom soon, and is surrounded by a moat in front of it. The moat is ninety-nine feet wide. It is nine feet deep and made of black iron. The wall is thirteen feet high and five feet thick. There are eighteen beacon towers and one hundred and eight large turrets built along the way. There are tens of thousands of crossbows, including the masters of Beihaiguan. As for the passes, there are a total of three cities used to station troops along the horizontal line. All of this was created by manpower, and there is no natural danger to defend, so defense can only rely on manpower to defend it.
Li Xiu looked at the large number of monks who were retreating into Beiguan Pass in the darkness from a distance, and then turned to look in the direction of Beiminghai. After a long time, he was sure that there were no pursuers behind him. Li Xiu frowned. Could it be that the Thirty-Six Islands in the Beiming Sea just stopped like this?
However, Li Xiu suddenly felt a sign in his heart. This kind of sign was familiar to Li Xiu, and it was not a good thing. Li Xiu ignored the rest and calmed down to do some calculations. However, his frown deepened, and an obvious word "Chuan" appeared between his eyebrows.
"Hiss—" Li Xiu had never encountered such a thing before. There were obvious signs, but he couldn't figure out what was wrong.
Li Xiu turned around and went down the mountain, reached halfway up the mountain, and dug around in the snow. It turned out that there was a clump of dry grass buried deep in the snow. Li Xiu grabbed a handful of hay, took out fifty hay, and then went to another place. One, there were forty-nine pieces of hay left in his hand. He divided it into two parts at will. Li Xiu squatted in the snow and placed the hay in his left and right hands on both sides. Li Xiu breathed out gently and began to take out a piece of grass from his left hand, sandwiching it between the four and five fingers of his left hand...
Li Xiu is using an ancient divination method to predict good and bad luck. This method is called "hanging one to resemble three". Three is the three talents, that is, the three talents of heaven, earth and man.
This is an ancient form of divination called yarrow divination. Dayan's number is fifty, and its use is ninety-nine. Divide into two, to resemble two. Hang one to symbolize three. Use four to represent the four seasons. The strange thing is that the stick is used to symbolize a leap; at the age of five, there is a leap again, so the stick is stuck and then hung... The four camps become easy, and eight out of ten changes become hexagrams.
Li Xiu had a piece of hay left on his right hand, so he took off a piece of hay on the little finger of his left hand. The total was two hours, which was recorded as Yao...and so on, changing Yao repeatedly, which lasted half a stick of incense. He stretched out his hand and burned the hay, then stood up and looked at Beiguan Pass, his expression not very good.
This divination was repeated three times, and the results were all negative.
In Li Xiu's opinion, this kind of divination has a certain element of luck, but if luck is put together, it is bad luck, and it is not luck. In addition, the trace of omen in his heart just skipped by, and Li Xiu would rather believe it. Its presence cannot be trusted and its absence cannot be ignored.
"Did Li Zhong and Wang Shuang cause trouble?" Li Xiu had to think about this. If he killed the owner of the Yin-Yang Mirror, how could the Tiandu Yuan just let it go? If the two of them left in advance, they might be able to avoid trouble, but if they stayed nearby to wait for them, they would be discovered by the people of the Tiandu Yuan. How could the masters of the Tiandu Yuan be handled by Li Zhong and Wang Shuang?
Nowadays, there are many experts in Beihai Customs. Li Xiu doesn't want to force his way in, so he can't do it forcefully. It seems that he can only go and investigate.
Moreover, even he could not deduce the result of the omen just now using the Three Corpses Technique. He could only borrow the wisdom of the ancients. It can be seen that the enemy's cultivation level is extremely high. He may have some magic weapon to cover up the secret. Li Xiu can only divine it through divination. It is good or bad, but unlike the Three Corpses Judgment, the specific cause and effect of the incident cannot be inferred. However, Li Xiu's current cultivation level is not comparable to that of a few days ago, so he immediately noticed the slightest sign in his heart and became alert. If it had been before, he might not have noticed it.
There was nothing to hesitate. Li Xiu disguised himself from the inside out. Even his genes and cells were completely transformed into another person, not to mention his bones and muscles. At this time, his figure was slightly burly. His height has not changed much, but even Li Ruocheng might not be able to recognize Li Xiu. Li Xiu hid his cultivation to the middle stage of the Golden Core. This kind of cultivation was like a deacon elder in the declining Wu Peak. However, in Bule Country, there were too many Golden Core monks. A sect like Taiqing Palace, I think To become an elder, the worst is at the late stage of the Golden Core. Unless a few people with excellent bones can make an exception, when Li Xiu walks into the crowd like this, he is like a passerby. Afterwards, Li Xiu took out a set of robes from the Dharma Precepts and put them on. It was suitable for this cold weather. If Li Xiu still wore a single jacket and a short coat, it would look out of place.
The masters from the General's Mansion and the Tiandu Yuan retreated into the Beihai Customs one after another. Li Xiu mixed in with the last group and entered the customs smoothly. The sergeant had already closed the formation mechanism, and saw that the passage on the moat leading to the city gate quickly disappeared, and the gate slammed shut. At this time, even if someone is alone, someone must come to confirm before they can pass through customs and enter the city.
When Li Xiu entered the city gate, the first thing he felt was pressure, not the pressure of a strong man. This was the outer city. There were no extra buildings. It was empty. It was said to be an outer city, but it was actually just an iron barrel. Entering Then you can station troops, and when you retreat, you can use it as a portal. The walls on all four sides are thirteen feet high, and a large turret is built on each side. Li Xiu can sense that the energy of these four turrets is saturated. If something goes wrong, he will be killed at any time. Can be launched.
This kind of turret is a magic weapon in itself. It does not require the spiritual infusion of monks. As long as it is filled with high-level spiritual stones, even ordinary soldiers can fire it. It can easily destroy the strong men of Jindan Dzogchen. The only disadvantage is that it is not flexible enough. It depends on whether the shot is accurate, and which monk of the Golden Elixir Dzogchen can't seek good luck and avoid bad luck? Therefore, this kind of turret can theoretically be used by ordinary soldiers, but unless it is on the battlefield, it can kill a large area without requiring accuracy. If you want to use it to target powerful enemies, you must have it in the hands of an equally powerful monk to unleash the turret's maximum lethality. After all, monks' eyesight and reaction are far superior to those of ordinary soldiers, and they can accurately predict in advance. Achieve a one-hit kill!
All the people who had returned from the defeat in Beiminghai gathered in the outer city, and Li Xiu also mixed in. Li Xiu knew that this was to prevent enemy infiltration. He was not allowed to enter the inner city, and everyone was treated equally regardless of whether they were from the General's Palace or the Heavenly Governor's Palace. The higher-ups were in contact, and not long after, a person in charge came to speak. Li Xiu saw that this person was no stranger. Wasn't it Yu Wanhe who was injured by him with the Yin-Yang Mirror? Didn't expect to recover from the injury so quickly?
"No, there are traces of the Three Corpses Technique on his body. Although he cracked it, he can't hide it from me!" Li Xiu suddenly realized.
Although the Three Corpses Technique is only Li Xiu's first method, it is extremely sophisticated. It is the experience summed up by Li Xiu's two worlds. The traces left by those injured by his Three Corpses Technique are unique. of. At this time, Li Xiuke confirmed the origin of the ominous omen he had divined. It seemed that Li Zhong and Wang Shuang would definitely fall into the hands of this person. Wang Shuang had not really stepped on the threshold and could not perform the Three Corpses Art, but Li Zhong With the help of hand seals, you can use it with all your strength, just like when the wizened old man killed Huang Chao, he also needed the hand seals to complement him, otherwise it would be extremely difficult to achieve the effect. Li Zhong's cultivation level is far inferior to that of the wizened old man. Fortunately, the three corpses will win in Bo Liang The strength of the world, even for extremely powerful people, has no way to break it. They can only use brute force and spend time to break it slowly.
"Everyone! Please be quiet!" Yu Wanhe said: "I have just received reliable news that in order to deal with us, the islands of the North Minghai Sea have invited powerful men from the demon clan who have disappeared for more than a thousand years to come out. Maybe they will do it in the near future. There is a large-scale operation, and it is very likely that a beast wave will attack!"
"What? The mighty demon clan?"
"Beast Tide? What the hell is that? It's only recorded in classics. Will it come true?"
"We are expelling magic weapons to attack, so what if a tide of beasts comes? No matter how many of them there are, they are just here to deliver food. By then, countless demon pills will become our meal. This is good news. !”
"Yes, Beihaiguan is impregnable, but there is only a tide of beasts, little Doyle!"
There was an explosion in the crowd, and suddenly everyone was not afraid, but their morale increased greatly.
"Everyone, everyone, please listen to me, Lao Yu, say a few more words!" Yu Wanhe pressed his hands, and when everyone gradually looked at him, Yu Wanhe said: "Let's work together to fight against foreign enemies, just beasts. Of course, the tide is nothing. As long as the monster beast army is defeated, the plans of the islands in the North Minghai Sea will be defeated by themselves. What should the unskilled wild man be afraid of? Wait for us to rectify our troops and counterattack Wanli, The country's worries have been completely solved. You are all great contributors. You will be rewarded according to your hard work in exchange for your merits. You can also be promoted to officials and nobles, which will benefit future generations. However, we have just suffered a new defeat. In order to prevent the enemy from getting into our ranks, If unnecessary losses are caused, I ask for your cooperation. You must verify your identity and count them one by one according to the roster before you can enter the inner city to rest."
"So that's it!" Only then did everyone understand the purpose of stopping them in the outer city. Naturally, few people dared to complain at this time. Even if they were angry, many people chose to cooperate.
"Fuck your mother!" However, not everyone was willing to obey. Some people had angry faces, and one voice was particularly clear, which showed that they had extremely deep skills. "Yu, you old guy raised on dog food, don't It doesn't hurt to stand and talk. I'm working hard outside, and my disciples have suffered heavy casualties. When I come back, I still have to be insulted by you. Who wants to verify his identity? Let him stand up and fart! You are not qualified to tell me what to do! "
Yu Wanhe said: "Who are you? It's useless to hide your head and show your tail. If you want to speak, you must stand up first!"
"My surname is Yu, what I said is what all the brothers want to say. Why, you Tiandu Yuan still want to kill them all? Just now on the battlefield, the people of Tiandu Yuan ignored the overall situation and dispersed in a hurry, causing us to wait in vain Thousands of more comrades have been sacrificed, why don't you ask Heisheng to speak out? If you ask him to stand up, I will suspect that he is a spy, and he will be the first person to be tested to prove his identity!"
If everyone thought that the voice was deliberately provoking trouble after the first sentence, then when he said this sentence, it really hit everyone's heart!
They are all monks who defy heaven and cultivate immortality. Who can hold back the anger in his heart?
"That's right. Let the black rope come out to verify your identity. Otherwise, we will kill the general and go up to seek justice. Are the inspectors of the Tiandu Yuan great? Treating the lives of comrades as trivial is a small thing. Don't give a How can you convince people by preaching the Dharma?”
"Black Rope, get out!"
"What bullshit Tianduyuan, eat shit!"
"Go back, Old Man Yu, people from Tiandu Yuan are not qualified to stand in front of us, we want to see the commander-in-chief!"
"Russell Jing, get out of here, don't hide behind your back and pretend to be your granddaughter!"
…
These people who followed and shouted were almost all two masters of the General's Mansion. Just now they were harmed by the people of Tianduyuan. Now that someone is taking the lead, they can't bear it anymore!
