Just breaking the seal from their seventh formation is already a great achievement.
As long as they report this matter to the court, they will immediately receive a series of awards.
But... the governor looked back at the staff beside him.
The staff who had been with him to assist him and had never disliked the poverty of this border state and county nodded firmly towards him.
"Okay, I know!"
"You wait patiently at the mountain gate. I will immediately send an army to explore the Jedi border."
"When the time comes, there will be many places where the Taoist priest can be used... From now on, we will have more cooperation, and I hope that the Taoist priest will also take care of me."
The governor of a state or county was so polite to him.
This old magician was a little flattered.
He hurriedly showed his modesty: "Your Majesty the Governor, you are too polite. It is an honor for a poor man to serve the Tang Dynasty."
The two people laughed heartily. They both knew that whether they could successfully obtain their glory and wealth depended on their subsequent cooperation and actions.
If there is one good thing about this poor state and county, it is the high degree of unity of action.
The Governor's Palace issued an order, and the defensive troops immediately advanced in the direction of the Jedi.
As the head of a state capital, he must be personally involved in such a big matter.
The people reporting to the dynasty have already been sent on the way. The reason why communication symbols are not used...
The purpose is to buy them more time for their next actions.
Every additional piece of land they occupy now...is a piece of credit they have snatched away from them.
The investigation was quickly carried out.
Out of caution, the governors of the border states and counties mobilized all the personal guards on hand who could follow them to go personally, while the border troops on the border that overlapped with their marching route had to support them.
This wasn't because he didn't trust the old Taoist priest. When it came to Jedi matters, one could never be too cautious.
When this army takes action, as long as it wants to, it will move forward indomitably.
It took the group only ten days to cover a journey that usually takes nearly a month.
When we arrived near Jedi, where the old Taoist priest's mountain gate was...
The old Taoist priests were so excited that they cried.
There is no way, if they don't come again... this place will be occupied by living creatures first.
As long as a blade of grass grows near the Jedi, the secret they want to hide now will no longer exist.
Regarding the worries of the master and apprentice, the governor showed extremely calmness.
"It's impossible for us to swallow up such a large territory."
"Counting the days, the report from me and the court above has arrived."
"As expected, when we enter the Jedi, the mages from the dynasty will come to investigate before the army."
"This is also a guarantee for us. Those noble people look down on things on the ground."
"You won't compete with us for military glory."
"As for what happened here, it will naturally be left to them to handle."
"It's just that I have wronged the Taoist Priest. As the Taoist Priest was the first to discover the strangeness here, and he is also one of their fellow Taoists, I'm afraid he will feel a little aggrieved."
Are you an expert? If the limelight is taken out by others, you will naturally not be too happy.
The master didn't think it was a big deal.
I remember that back then, despite his extremely poor physique, he still had a slight affinity for immortality.
He reached the threshold but could not get in. At that time, he had already seen the ugly faces of countless cultivators.
In the eyes of those people, he is a magic stick.
Once they figured out where he was coming from, those people who thought highly of themselves no longer bothered to argue with him.
The thicker my skin is, the more helpless and ridiculed those people will be.
Naturally, they have nothing to do here.
They would never steal the real money and silver in the secular world, the prizes valued by the imperial dynasty.
This matter is not bad for him.
"Then what are you waiting for? Pindao is walking with the Governor and has entered the Jedi Land. If I find something is wrong, please the Governor must listen to my advice and lead the people to evacuate quickly."
This is natural, no one wants to explain it out of nowhere.
The two parties finalized the details and route, and the army marched toward the south of the Jedi.
As the entrance to the seventh formation, the road was smooth at the beginning.
But when they walked further south to the range of a formation, they encountered an unexpected enemy.
"Skeleton! There's a skeleton monster!"
There was an elite exploration team in front of them, responsible for exploring the road. Not long after, news came that the team had encountered a spirit.
As the permanent troops on the border, from the governor to the small soldiers, there was no reaction to the news.
Isn't it just a skeleton monster?
The seal stopped the people who entered, but it never stopped the evil spirits in the Jedi from coming out.
Their area is so desolate, but the court spends huge sums of money to replenish it with the best weapons every year.
The purpose is not to make them the first line of defense against evil things.
When a large-scale evil spirit monster came out, they would kill most of them first.
Even if there are sporadic cunning spirits that run inland, it will be much easier to put them away with specialized spells.
So it's just a skeleton monster, the lowest level and the most harmless thing... What is there to repay for this kind of thing?
The spy who shouted the report finally finished what he said.
"The Naxi skeleton monster is very weird. On weekdays, there are not even 10,000 but 8,000 skeleton monsters killed near the border."
"They are all spirits that are killing uncontrollably in a daze."
"But the skeleton monster our team encountered was not like this."
"They smelled the scent of strangers, and even had a face-to-face encounter with our captain."
"That's why they didn't attack us."
Um? "This is nothing special, right?"
The old Taoist priest can explain this situation: "You are an elite border patrol team. They are all military personnel. They are full of blood and weapons. Naturally, those weak skeleton monsters will not dare to get close to you."
"not like this!"
The scout told what he saw, and you were still in disbelief as you recalled it: "It's skeletons all over the mountains and fields... They seem to be coming here from a very south direction."
"There are many powerful beings among those skeletons, who can fight our soldiers one-on-one without losing."
"Our captain led us to investigate near a relatively hidden pit."
"Confirm that there are no hidden dangers in the deep trench. When you climb up again..."
"We were surrounded by skeleton monsters several times our size."
"The captain thought we were going to tell him where he was, so he planned to cover up a sudden attack by a soldier who was delivering the news and report to the governor."
