Chapter 655 Ambush(1/2)
Yuzhou North.
Going out of Shenguan in the east, you can see the continuous large rivers.
Several streams of light were flying high in the sky, flying to Luoshui and Jizhou.
In the stream of light, several Taoists were flying in the air, with the wind blowing on their cheeks, overlooking the great rivers and mountains, and they suddenly felt heroic.
"Everyone, after passing this Luoshui River, we will reach the border of Jizhou."
Someone in the crowd of gods spoke.
Several Taoists waved their sleeves in a smart manner and looked to the north: "I didn't expect that Jizhou would be so difficult to deal with. It's not enough for the many Taoist friends from Qixing Mountain to help. They have to ask us to come with them."
Obviously not all of the Taoists who came to support were Qixingshan Qi refiners.
Some of them had some understanding of the predicament that Chu Xinfeng encountered previously. Most of the cultivators were unaware of the situation. They were just ordered by the sect and, at the urging of the Grand Master, to go to the front lines to help Chu Xinfeng fight.
"Anyway, we will come and go as soon as we are called. Grand Master will be idle when he is idle. If you don't call, it will be in vain."
The monk, who was not clear about the situation, looked unhappy and spoke in a harsh tone with a cold tone.
The leader was a white-haired old Taoist. The old Taoist was wearing a yellow Taoist robe. Hearing this, his face turned ugly: "If that's not the case, who can be alone in the rise and fall of the world? Today, Cao's army is coming fiercely. You are hiding here."
How can you be at ease if you live as gods in the mountains and Cao Su summons you tomorrow with a piece of paper?"
The old Taoist spoke more directly, and he was probably a highly respected person. After he finished speaking, everyone stopped talking.
"Let's go, don't hesitate!"
A total of seven or eight Qi Refiners, urged by the old Taoist, had no choice but to follow them, turning into streams of light and heading straight to the northeast.
Follow this Luoshui River to the east and you should be able to find the Invalid Army Camp.
Several Taoists were silent and had their own thoughts. Compared with the Taoists who were in Chu Xinfeng camp for the first time, their thoughts were much more complicated.
Entering the boundary of Jizhou and heading north from Luoshui River, there are obviously more mountain roads.
The terrain of Yuzhou is flatter, while Jizhou is more mountainous.
At least in the area north of Luoshui, the terrain in Jizhou is higher.
Flying all the way to the northeast, the skills of these ascetics were high and low, but they were all controlled at a reasonable speed. Together, several streams of light flew over many mountains.
Then he saw the white tents stretching for ten miles between the valleys.
"We're here, the Invalids Camp!"
The old Taoist reminded them, and everyone slowed down, and their figures emerged from the white mist one by one, none of them hiding their auras.
Therefore, there was a corresponding reaction in the camp quickly, and several streams of light flew up to welcome the coming gods to support them.
"Hahahaha, but Taoist priest Xin Tianming is here?"
Chu Xinfeng, who was wearing golden armor and golden helmet, was extremely majestic. He was also the fastest streamer. He quickly appeared in front of everyone, bowed his hands in greeting, and laughed heartily.
Several cultivators did not dare to show off to such a top-notch martial artist in the world, and all bowed in return.
The old Taoist Xin Tianming smiled: "General Chu, I haven't seen you for a long time. You are well."
The two of them were old acquaintances in the capital city, and this time Xin Tianming, as Qixing Mountain's strongest late-stage alchemy alchemist, personally led the team, which meant that Qixing Mountain's investment in this battle had reached a new level.
Chu Xinfeng's eyes flashed, his face showed joy, he stretched out his hand and said: "Fellow Taoists, please!"
He scanned everyone's faces one by one and made eye contact with them, not neglecting any of the monastic reinforcements.
Everyone responded with a smile, and then followed him, holding Xiangyun, into the Invalid Army Camp.
Throughout the Invalids Camp, the soldiers have been practicing martial arts in full swing and are ready to send troops to attack Yangping Pass at any time.
Yangping Pass is right in front of us. Chu Xinfeng is the first main force in attacking Cao Su. He will not allow himself to be trapped in this pass. If his journey is ineffective, how can the other Zhencang and Zhu Ming people?
Is there any effect?
Xin Tianming and others followed Chu Xinfeng and entered the camp.
Chu Xinfeng welcomed many Qi practitioners and gave them a very high level of courtesy and reception.
"General Chu, I heard that the previous batch of Qi Refiners in the army all died tragically?"
Among the Qi Practitioners, it didn't matter whether they accepted it or not. Safety was their main consideration. Some people immediately raised objections and wanted to know the truth of the matter.
Chu Xinfeng's expression changed slightly. Several people walked into the camp, and the atmosphere became solemn.
He did not deny it, nodded and said: "Yes, many Qi Refiners are dead."
As Chu Xinfeng finished speaking, another important Qixing Mountain master, Taoist Tianyuan, appeared, with tears in his eyes, and knelt down in front of Xin Tianming: "Uncle, this disciple is useless, and I have lost the lives of my brothers.
.”
Most of those who died were Qi-refiners from Qixing Mountain, as well as the great monks who died in the late stage of pill formation. Everyone felt sad and felt a little bit more re-examined about Yang Pingguan's behavior of assisting the boxing this time.
"It's not the fault of Taoist Priest Tianyuan, it's because the thief was too insidious. A first-class martial artist actually hid in the dark and hurt people. Even if I were present at the scene in person, I couldn't save everyone's lives."
Chu Xinfeng explained a little on the side, which could be considered as an excuse for Taoist Priest Tianyuan.
After hearing this, the other Qi Refiners all changed their expressions: "A first-grade martial artist hiding in the dark?"
"How many first-class warriors are there in this world? The first-class warriors who appeared at the junction of Jizhou and Yuzhou, could this be..."
Chu Xinfeng shook his head: "It's not Cao Su."
"Although I haven't had a head-to-head confrontation with Cao Su, I know that he is extremely proud. At that time, the Grand Master also said that Cao Su was a man of the right path and was loyal to the late emperor. If it were not for the confrontation with the Grand Master,
To fight against the world, I, Chu, am willing to be friends with him."
"I estimate that the first-grade martial artist should be a hidden master under Cao Su. Back then, I was very surprised as to why Cao Su, a martial artist who had not yet reached the first-grade realm, could defeat Yun Zhengxin."
"At first I thought it was because Cao Su had high martial arts skills and high combat power. Although his level was not as good as Yun Zhengxin's, he could deal with Yun Zhengxin and then wait for an opportunity to kill him."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Now it seems that I was wrong. The reason why Cao Su was able to kill Yun Zhengxin face to face was probably because he had the best first-grade martial arts to help him. It was most likely that he was
The first-grade martial artist from the night before."
Chu Xinfeng overturned his own speculation and obtained a new conclusion.
The new conclusion is reasonable and well-founded, and it also connects the past and the future, making everyone convinced.
Chu Xinfeng smiled: "You don't have to worry. Now that this person has shown his face, Chu will not let him succeed in secret attacks. Next, we will take an upright approach to tackle the problem, relying on the skills of many of our Taoist priests.
If we help, we will definitely be able to capture Yangping Pass easily. Then the three armies of the Grand Master will attack together, and Cao Su will not be able to care about each other."
Many monks did not understand the military and political strategies that Chu Xinfeng mentioned, but it was hard for everyone to say that they did not understand.
Everyone nodded, as if they were convinced and convinced by Chu Xinfeng.
"By the way, why are you the only ones here today?"
Chu Xinfeng suddenly noticed something strange. He frowned and looked around, and found that there were only seven or eight Qi Masters who arrived at the camp. He remembered that when he and the Grand Master were connected, didn't the Grand Master agree?
Do you want to support a wave of Qi Refiners? The number of this wave must be twenty or thirty, right? Otherwise, how will the camp gain an advantage in the upcoming battle?
"Aren't we enough?"
Some Qi refiners were dissatisfied, and what Chu Xinfeng said was unpleasant.
Taoist Master Tianyuan immediately explained: "General Chu means that there are only so many Taoists who came to Yangpingguan to help with boxing this time. Are there any other Taoist friends who will help with boxing later?"
"When I left, the Grand Master once said that there should be more than just our group." Xin Tianming said calmly from the side, "It's just that we are not from the same sect. There is no need to rush to the same place and set off together.
Therefore, there may be some differences in the order in which everyone comes.”
Chu Xinfeng showed an expression of "Sure enough," it turned out that Xin Tianming and others were just a wave of support from the Grand Master, not all.
When Xin Tianming said this, he couldn't help but be stunned.
"What's wrong?" Seeing Xin Tianming's face darken, Chu Xinfeng's heart trembled and he had an ominous premonition.
Xin Tianming said in confusion: "Calculating the time, they should have arrived too. It makes no sense that they haven't arrived at our camp for so long. Could it be that they went astray and went to other places?"
------------------
A few hours ago.
You Gaohan and others followed Cao Su and detoured all the way. It turned out that Cao Su obviously wanted to cross the Luoshui River first.
But after arriving at Luoshui, Cao Su did not rush to cross Luoshui. Instead, he came to the edge of Luoshui, found a river bank, and investigated carefully.
"Going southeast, you can reach the White Horse Ferry, but at this time, the White Horse Ferry should be guarded by enemy troops."
Wan Bu Ping traveled south and north, and in his heart he had a detailed topographic map of various states in the Qianyuan Dynasty.
Of course, Cao Su also knew some of the local terrain, but he didn't feel that he should go to Baima Ferry to investigate. Since the opponent was already heavily guarded, it would be unwise to show his face again.
Several people approached the edge of the Luoshui River, all wearing black clothes and black hats with their faces covered. Cao Su lowered his head and glanced at the Luoshui River, identified the direction, and then waved everyone to go northwest.
After walking for half a day, everyone used Qinggong to climb to a high mountain.
Jin Mu said in a dull voice: "Brother, who are you trying to ambush?"
Cao Su looked at everyone's doubtful eyes and whispered: "I got the exact news, saying that the imperial court is preparing to send top Qi refiners to sneak into Jizhou Prefecture to cause rebellion. Jizhou Prefecture is the core capital of the four states, where millions of people live.
How can the residents be easily destroyed by Xiaoxiao? I am leading you to ambush here today just to strike first and nip the crisis in the cradle."
Helping the Jizhou government solve the crisis, such rhetoric obviously made everyone feel the light of righteousness. Everyone closed their eyes to rest, and followed Cao Su to hide in the forest on the mountain.
