Li Bochen originally thought that this monster might threaten and persuade him to surrender when he opened his mouth, but he did not expect these words to come out of his mouth.
It just said that it planned to "collect Yin spirits" and was worried about the inconvenience of "taking our Yin spirits". It seemed that it knew what it and Sui Wujiu were planning to do.
The monster seemed to have guessed what he was thinking, and said again: "General Li, aren't you curious, how do we know this?"
In fact, there is really nothing to be curious about. This monster is just trying to sow discord. If Ying Geng or Sui Wu Jiu leaked the news, there would be no need to put on such a show now. Wouldn't it be better to wait until he actually broke into the enemy's camp. Moreover, Ying Gai had already said that if he could think of this method, so should the demon spirits.
Li Bochen smiled coldly and said, "There's no need to waste your time. What else do you want to say?"
The monster grinned and said: "Will the general go or not? My king has said that he will wait on the top of the mountain for three days. Within these three days, your secret realm can still be a place to stay. If the general does not go after three days , our army will change the atmosphere of the mountains and rivers and destroy the cave you have here!"
If he were fighting against others at this time, Li Bochen would never take these words seriously. But since the opposite side was a monster, he remembered the customs of the demon country that he had heard about when he was in Wuliang City. Although most demons are cruel, there is one custom that is very ancient, and that is "fighting".
It is said that if a demon feels that his opponent is worthy of respect or has a sworn hatred, he will make a fight and win based on his personal bravery. The winner can kill and kill the loser. If the loser does not obey, he will be despised and expelled by everyone. If one party proposes a fight but the other party refuses to accept it, it will be regarded as cowardly and will not be tolerated by the devil.
It is said that this custom is due to the order of the demon kingdom on the one hand, and also to win the favor of the demon god on the other hand. But no matter what, the monster in front of him has no guts to make up this matter. If this matter is really proposed by the demon spirit "King Xishan" in his mouth, the promise he made is probably true - if he agrees, he will Try to get three days.
It must be because of the demon spirit he killed before, Princess Shinra.
However, even though he thought so in his heart, Li Boxen still felt a little unbelievable - this custom was true, but this request for a fight may not be simple. That demon spirit commands an army of hundreds of thousands, and it is very easy to seek revenge from him. Is he making this request just because he wants to take revenge with his own hands?
Is such a person... qualified to lead this army?
Li Bochen couldn't help but glanced sideways at Sui Wujiu, but saw that he was thoughtful and didn't express his approval or objection. He didn't know if he was testing himself again.
Li Boxen thought for a while and said softly: "Okay, tell your king that I will arrive in three days at the latest."
The monster was originally grinning, but now he closed his mouth after hearing his words, and did not speak for a long time. After a while, he said: "Hmph, you look like a devil to me. General, please accept this. I will go back and resume my life."
After it said this, its body trembled slightly, and the corpse parts that were originally fused with it fell down. Only then did I look at its true body - it was a thick layer of dark skin, with bone armor at its weakest point, and the middle section of its upper body was still a spine. The head looked like human bones, but the eyes were from the sockets. When poked out, they look like the eyes of a shrimp or crab.
Seeing it like this, Li Bochen felt that it was even more similar to the Zhu Yi he had seen before. According to what Yingyi said, Kong Ming would do this to get warriors who could compete with the monsters, but what were the monsters doing?
However, its current appearance is much more pleasing to the eye than before. Li Boxen took two steps forward with the knife in hand and slowly stretched out his hand. Seeing his action, the sergeants on the side also took a step forward, waiting for the monster to make the slightest move before they all took it down. But the monster just flipped its claws and threw the thing over.
Li Boxen could see clearly that there seemed to be nothing unusual about the thing, so he took it. I thought it would be about the same weight as a stone or iron block, but unexpectedly it turned out to be frighteningly heavy when I got it. It seemed to weigh over a hundred kilograms. Even though he was already a dragon and a tiger, and his strength was different from ordinary people, he almost missed the catch and hurriedly gritted his teeth and grabbed it with his hands. The grip was firm, but the knuckles of the wrist cracked and almost dislocated.
Seeing that he really caught it, the monster lowered his head slightly, raised his paws, and said, "General Li, take your leave."
The three monsters walked more than ten steps away. Seeing that Li Bochen had not moved yet, Zhao Bo, who was leading the team, whispered: "Your Majesty, won't you kill them?"
Li Bochen was silent for a moment. After they walked into the monster beasts, he summoned the energy of the earth to seal the entrance. He said: "The two countries are fighting each other, but they will not be able to escape sooner or later. General Zhao, thank you for your hard work and continue to guard here with your people." .”
Zhao Bo responded, and the other soldiers looked relieved. Li Bochen looked at the thing in his hand, turned around and handed it to Sui Wujiu: "Mr. Sui, do you recognize this thing?"
Sui Wujiu reached out and took it, frowning and looking at it carefully. It was only when I looked closer that I realized that this thing was very unusual - if it were stone, it would have holes or rough edges, and if it were metal, it would have scratches. But this thing is so smooth that even if you take a closer look at it, you can't see any traces.
After a while, Sui Wujiu whispered: "What a great gesture. Marquis Wuwei, when you kept rescuing people that day, did you really kill that demon spirit?"
Li Bochen felt that his question was a bit confusing, but he still said: "Yes. Brother Sui should also show you the demon spirit's head."
"That's something strange." Sui Wujiu gently tossed the black ball in his palm and gave it to Li Bochen, "This is the golden essence."
He raised his feet and walked into the secret realm. Li Boxen followed suit and didn't know what to say for a moment. Because he has only heard of the Golden Spirit, but has never seen it - actually, it is not accurate to say that he has never seen it. For example, the Yaohou he used to place the Yin soldiers contained the Golden Spirit.
Jinjing is neither gold nor stone. It is said that it was transformed from the innate spiritual energy when the world first opened. Some of it is mixed in when making the armor of divine weapons. The swords can split gold and break stones, but the armor is indestructible. Except for Yao Hou, he should also have this thing in the black armor he got from Zhang Shanjun's secret cave.
However, gold essence is extremely rare and is mostly stored deep underground. It is rare and precious. Now if such a large piece of gold in his hand was really gold, I wonder how many magical weapons and armors he could create. If it were exchanged for money, he might be able to buy a state capital.
Then King Xishan of the demon army uses this thing to store the ghost spirits of demon beasts and give them to himself? I'm afraid that the gift is not the Yin spirit, but this golden spirit.
But he said that the demon spirit wanted to avenge Princess Zhenluo. What was the meaning of sending this thing?
After walking a few steps further, Sui Wujiu said: "When the envoy came, his attitude was quite arrogant at first. Seeing that you caught this thing, he relaxed a little. When he heard that you agreed to fight, he became a little admired. Meaning - this is also very strange. If you were replaced by someone else, I would inevitably suspect that you and the demon spirit had an old relationship in the past, and the messenger heard some praises for you from the demon spirit, so at first he was not Those who are convinced will be convinced by you later.”
Li Boxen said: "I can't guess what they are thinking. What does Sui Gong think?"
Sui Wu Jiu smiled: "Let's wait and see what happens."
He stopped talking.
By this time, Li Boxen felt that Sui Wu Jiu was weird more and more. It's not like he came here to discuss how to deal with the monsters, but like he came here to supervise and observe himself. When he led the army here a few days ago, he was still dismissive of himself. Why did there suddenly be such a big change?
He had no intention of eating or drinking, so he returned to the fire and said a few words to reassure everyone, then walked back to the entrance alone and sat down on the edge of the cliff. Here you can see the scene outside the entrance, and you can also see the light of the bonfire further inside. Sui Wujiu was still sitting by the fire, eating and drinking leisurely, as if he was becoming more harmonious with everyone.
Li Bochen's Yin spirit left his body.
He hadn't done this before because he was afraid that Sui Wu Jiu would do this in his dream and it would cause some misunderstanding. But now that he felt something was wrong with him and the other party wasn't asleep, he didn't care much anymore.
Now when I look outside, I see that the outside of the secret realm is completely clean. There are neither human ghosts nor monster beast ghosts. This is not surprising. Now that he knows that he is the spirit master, the monster will definitely find a way to clean up the battlefield and not give him any chance to take advantage of it.
However, among the mountains further away, there is a mountaintop with black air rising into the sky, standing upright like a giant tree turned into clouds. That's where the "King of Good Delights" should be.
Looking inside the secret realm, there was something different - Sui Wujiu.
There seemed to be nothing unusual about ordinary people, but Sui Wujiu had a white light flickering on his body. Li Boxen had seen practitioners when the Yin spirit left the body before, but he had never seen such a strange sight. I wonder if it was because he was in the Dongxuan realm and his spiritual energy was released.
He walked closer to see if there was anything unusual about it.
But Sui Wu Jiu suddenly raised his head and glanced in his direction. I don't know if he noticed something or if it was unintentional, but Li Bochen only felt that his eyes were shining brightly, which made him feel dizzy.
Did he find out? But Li Bochen thought, he is a guest here and I am the host. Besides, there were many conflicts in the past. What if he knew that I was watching him?
He then walked closer to see Sui Wu Jiu. But this time I didn't see anything unusual about him, but I found something was wrong in the secret realm.
This secret realm was built by the former sects by gathering earth energy. If you look at it from the perspective of Yin Ling, you will find that it is wrapped in a round shell. The shell is formed by earth energy and spiritual power. When Li Boxen looked at this shell before, he thought it was bright and smooth. But looking at it now, I found that it was shaking like water waves. This should be caused by the monster army in the mountains.
I don’t know how long this secret realm can last.
After a while, the dinner party broke up. Li Bochen wanted to talk to Sui Wujiu for a few more words, but he mentioned a "refining method" - how to refine the gold into armor. Sui Wujiu said that the method he taught was a secret secret passed down by the Sui royal family, and it was from this that Li Bochen's victory over the rivers and seas came from.
Li Boxen thought about it and found that it was indeed profound and profound, and would never be used to deal with him. He even said this, and he seemed to really intend to cooperate sincerely to drive out the monsters. As a result, he was a little undecided for a moment - did Sui Wujiu come here sincerely?
But in the dead of night, Li Boxen finally realized something was wrong.
