Xuanyin Pass.
All the fleeing people in Hangu Pass have already withdrawn.
Du Gong, Wu Ming and others also gathered here.
The city lord of Xuanyin Pass extended warm hospitality to Du Gong and others, and expressed his gratitude to Du Gong for everything he had done.
If Du Gong hadn't bought so much time, the preparations for Xuanyin Pass would not have been so complete.
As for whether Xuanyin Pass will be breached like Hangu Pass, this is impossible.
For Qian Lingzhou, this battle is divided into three stages.
The first stage is the "deployment stage".
During the deployment phase, timing is everything!
Qian Lingzhou must buy time at all costs! Deploy all strategic points!
Because Qianlingzhou is so big, there is simply no way to protect it in all aspects.
Therefore, facing the attack of the Ten Thousand Monster Kingdom, Qian Lingzhou will definitely have to abandon some checkpoint cities.
But this kind of giving up is not easy.
In these levels, you need to buy enough time and then set up a really strong line of defense.
During the war that lasted more than a year, soldiers kept abandoning the city and fled, but soldiers kept swarming up to defend the city. It was all because of this reason.
Everything is just for time!
The last bottom line that Qian Lingzhou gave up was to start from Xuanyin Pass and form a circle with each level city.
Everything outside this circle will be lost if it is lost. There is no way around it.
But starting from the front line of Xuanyin Pass, it entered the real confrontation stage.
Next is the beginning of the real war.
After a year of deployment, both military supplies and various armies will be continuously supplied until the entire Qianling Continent is destroyed.
All the time it took to deploy all this was paid for by the soldiers at the cost of their lives!
"On behalf of all the soldiers and civilians of Hangu Pass, as well as all the heroic spirits who died, I would like to express my gratitude to you!"
Du Gong stood in front of Su Li and bowed deeply.
After Du Gong woke up, he learned from his adjutant what happened after he fainted.
In Du Gong's view, his life was entirely given by the other party!
"You don't have to do that, General."
Su Li shook his head and helped the other party up.
"I am also from Qian Lingzhou. Fighting against the Kingdom of Ten Thousand Demons is everyone's business, and helping the general is even more important."
Du Gong shook his head: "Having said that, without your help, those of us would have died in the hands of the demon army, and those people who have not yet fled may also have been massacred.
Du Gong will definitely remember Mr. Su's kindness today!
If you come to my place usefully in the future, just ask, Du Gong will never give up! "
"It's really unnecessary..."
"I really want it!"
"All right......"
Seeing Du Gong's insistence, Su Li couldn't say anything more and had no choice but to accept the offer.
A few days later, Bai Dao, who occupied Hangu Pass, arrived under the city gate of Xuanyin Pass without much repair.
It can be seen from this that Bai Dao is really in a hurry.
After arriving at Xuanyin Pass, Bai Dao had people shouting in formation under the city all day long, and the shouts were as unpleasant as they sounded.
Su Li didn't even want to offend him.
Because Su Li saved many people in Hangu Pass, he had already gained more than 700,000 destiny points.
Moreover, Su Li also took back the heads of General Guan Qi and Qi Daoren, so that they could be buried safely.
By the way, Su Li also killed more than 100,000 demon troops.
So Su Li can be considered as a blood profit.
As for going to the city to fight with the other party?
This is no longer necessary for the time being.
But if you can make him angry, why not?
When it comes to swearing, I was born in Zu'an, why are I still afraid of him?
So, Su Li wrote a curse word and asked people to read it non-stop at the top of the city, and then the other party broke through.
After breaking the defense, Bai Dao began to attack Xuanyin Pass.
Although Su Li really wanted to chop off this guy's head, now was not the time.
Su Li didn't take action because he was still recuperating.
But Su Li led the monks of Wan Jianjun to stand on the top of the city and watched the battle.
These kendo geniuses seem to have gone through a lot of training, but in fact, these so-called kendo geniuses are all flowers in the greenhouse.
They can't go down to the battlefield yet, but at least they should know how cruel the battlefield is.
And there is no deeper impression than watching the game directly.
Furthermore, after watching these battles of life and death, it may also be somewhat helpful to their swordsmanship.
After watching the battle for a month, Su Li felt that he had almost recovered and it was time to leave.
Before Su Li left, he attacked the opponent's military camp again at night, simply killed seven or eight thousand demon cultivators and then turned around and ran away. This made Bai Dao curse and break through the defense again.
But in Su Li's opinion, he can still break through the defense a little now.
When they meet next time, I want his head!
After leading the soldiers of Wanjian Army back to Wanjian City, the test continued.
But none of the sword cultivators went to Su Li to ask about swords.
All the sword cultivators are in seclusion.
They were thinking and digesting everything that Su Li showed in that battle, recalling the collision of life and death on the battlefield for thousands of people.
And during this period of time when these sword cultivators were in seclusion, Su Li could always feel waves of sword energy rushing towards the city.
This means that one genius sword cultivator after another has gone into seclusion.
Sure enough, this is how sword training should be.
It is true to learn sword moves, read sword manuals, and practice hard, but practicing hard does not mean practicing in a dull manner!
Sword cultivators still have to go out and take a look from time to time.
Two months later, one sword cultivator after another came to Su Li to ask about swords.
Although these swordsmanship geniuses still failed one after another.
However, Su Li could clearly feel that they were much calmer than before.
And they are getting closer and closer to the end point of passing the test.
Finally, on the fourth month after returning, someone else passed the test.
The disciple who passed the test was named Jusu.
Su Li's influence on Jusu was quite profound.
This is a very hard-working and talented female disciple.
He belongs to the mature and steady academic type.
It's a pity that her maturity and stability mean that most of the time, she acts step by step and is not very good at taking the wrong approach.
It is a bad thing for more than one sword cultivator to not be able to take the wrong direction with his sword.
But this time, Jusu surpassed herself. Her sword was no longer so rigid, as if it suddenly came to life.
However, Su Li felt a bit of anger in her sword.
It's like this girl seems to have received too much stimulation, and then these stimulations forcefully awakened the girl.
In other words, this girl forced herself to awaken...
Su Li didn't know what this girl had experienced during this period, but she had awakened, which was a good thing after all.
The third disciple who passed was called Wang Meng.
Wang Meng used a giant sword.
Because the long sword he uses is very distinctive.
The fourth one is Su Mu, a shy female disciple.
Every time he saw Su Mu, Su Li would think of Sisi.
Su Li even felt that if Sisi and Su Mu were together, the two of them might not say a word and just hold each other back...
Also because Su Mu has the character of a soft girl, Su Li needs to pay great attention to his tone when teaching her.
Otherwise, Su Li would worry that if his voice accidentally got louder while he was teaching, this girl would cry...
In the following time, more and more people found their own way of swordsmanship, which made Su Li very happy.
With only fifteen days left before the deadline, only one person had not found his way of swordsmanship.
Su Li felt quite surprised.
Su Li had an impression of this person.
His talent is actually not low, and is even above the average level, but Su Li never expected that he has not made a breakthrough yet...
This sword cultivator is named Chen Dong.
is a man.
But...
how to say.
It's just that Chen Dong doesn't feel that masculine to others.
To put it mildly, she is a bit effeminate.
But Chen Dong is not the type who likes fencing either.
After all, who would blush when talking to a girl...
Therefore, his sexual orientation should be very normal.
"Is there something on your mind?"
Su Li thought for a while and planned to meet Chen Dong to see if he could enlighten him.
After all, it would be a pity if such a genius died like this.
As soon as the decision was made, Su Li came to the dormitory.
In these dormitories, each class lives together, and everyone has a separate room.
This kind of building is actually a kind of apartment, built based on Su Li's idea, with a total of twenty floors.
Each room has modern facilities such as water heaters, running water, toilets, etc.
Building a toilet has been something Su Li has wanted to do for a long time.
However, after being repelled, Su Li no longer needs to use it, and now the toilet is just a decoration...
But no matter what, Qi State has granted him so much funding that he can build a toilet.
The realization of all this comes from the craftsmanship department of Qi State.
Those monks who are proficient in mechanisms and machinery can even build mechanical beasts. After being given a rough design, it is easy for them to build these.
"Eh? Master..."
Su Mu, who was practicing swordplay in the garden at the bottom of the apartment, called out softly when he saw Su Li.
Jusu on the other side also trembled, and the sword was not held firmly, and it broke away from Jusu's hand and stabbed Su Li.
Su Li caught the sword easily.
"Sorry...Master, I...I didn't mean it."
Jusu was so frightened that her face turned pale.
"fine."
Su Li smiled and returned the sword to Jusu.
"If I get hurt by you like this, then I, the master, will be embarrassed, but I have to pay more attention when practicing swordsmanship in the future."
"yes......"
Jusu's cheeks turned red as she held the long sword handed over by Su Li.
"Master, is there something wrong?" Su Mu asked.
"It's nothing. Is Chen Dong from your class here? I want to talk to him." Su Li rubbed Su Mu's head.
Su Li has always regarded Su Mu as his sister.
The girly attributes of this kind of soft girl are simply off the charts.
Seeing Su Mu's head being rubbed, Ju Li also stepped forward and looked at Su Mu enviously.
"It should be there."
Su Mu said with red cheeks, but soon, another hint of worry appeared in Su Mu's eyes.
"It's just that Chen Dong's condition hasn't been very good recently. Chen Dong hasn't been going out recently..."
Su Mu also knew the reason for Chen Dong's poor condition.
The test from the master is almost over. There are ten thousand sword cultivators in the Wan Jian Army, but Chen Dong is the only one who has failed the test. If it were him, he would be autistic.
"I understand, you should practice well, I have always been very optimistic about you."
Su Li encouraged the two girls and walked upstairs.
Arriving at the door of Chen Dong's apartment, Su Li knocked on the door.
"I...I don't want to practice sword practice anymore. I want to be alone."
Chen Dong's voice came from the room.
"Chen Dong, it's me." Su Li said.
"Master?"
Chen Dong's shocked voice came from the room again.
Chen Dong also didn't expect that his master would come back.
Soon, Chen Dong opened the door.
What Su Li saw were Chen Dong's glowing red eyes.
It's true that Chen Dong is a man, but he has a female appearance and a male body. He looks more delicate, which means he is more feminine.
Perhaps because of his appearance, Chen Dong has a softer temper and a more sensitive personality, like a girl.
"Can I come in and sit for a while?" Su Li said with a smile.
"But...it's okay..." Chen Dong quickly got out of the way, "Master, please come in..."
"Then excuse me."
Su Li nodded and walked into Chen Dong's room.
Chen Dong's room was very clean, and all the furnishings were very neat. It was so clean that it didn't look like a men's room.
Su Li felt that if he lived alone, although it would not be too messy, he would definitely not clean it frequently.
Each person's room is 80 square meters, which is quite large.
However, in such a large room, Su Li saw various sword manuals.
Sword manuals in the library are not allowed to be borrowed for more than fifteen days, and no more than three books can be borrowed at one time.
These sword manuals should have been copied by the other party.
On Chen Dong's desk, Su Li also saw various notes about kendo, some annotations on sword manuals, and so on.
It can be seen that Chen Dong works very hard.
"Master, please sit down. Disciple will go make tea for Master."
Chen Dong went to boil water to make tea with some anxiety.
"Master, please have tea."
Chen Dong respectfully placed the brewed tea next to Su Li, and then sat in front of Su Li with great respect.
Chen Dong kept his head lowered, as if he had done something wrong.
One thing to say.
Chen Dong's delicate female appearance and male figure.
If I weren't a normal person.
If it were Brother Jie, he would be very dangerous.
"Master, there is one thing. This disciple wants to get rid of Master..."
Before Su Li could finish thinking about how to speak, Chen Dong spoke slowly.
"Yeah." Su Li nodded.
"disciple......"
Chen Dong took a deep breath and buried his head deeper.
"This disciple wants to withdraw from the Wanjian Army."
