Chapter 311: The Return of the Mountain Chief (Nearly 20,000 Words Super Chapter)
Gao Shen's strategy is to anger the other party.
Anyway, the other party didn't intend to compete with him head-on, but wanted to bully the few with more.
So there is no need for Gao Shen to talk about benevolence and righteousness.
In his opinion, when dealing with these low-handed practitioners, he only needs to consider whether he can win. As for whether winning is honorable or not, it is not within his scope of consideration.
Babaka and Ilila are so popular that their lungs are about to explode.
It is said that the people of the Central Plains are good at talking, and they are not very knowledgeable.
At first they thought it was exaggerated, but when they saw it today they were really convinced.
Good guy, are all Chinese people or scholars so eloquent?
This little mouth has never stopped chattering from the beginning.
If they continue like this, their eardrums will probably burst.
"You are really eloquent."
Babaka couldn't help it any longer. He sneered and said: "You want to delay time? I might as well tell you that it will be useless no matter how long you delay. We have already investigated and you are the only one in the Anxi Army." High-level practitioners, we are not afraid even if there is another one like you. Not to mention it is not as good as you?"
Ilila also spoke up and said, "Yeah, before taking action, it's best to think about whether you are the material. If you insist on forcing yourself to do something even though you are clearly not the material, the final outcome will be extremely miserable."
"Tell me about you. You are obviously a disciple of the academy. You just need to stay in the academy and be your scholar. You have to try to imitate other people's abandonment of writing and join the army. Good guy, is this what you can learn?"
"You did pretty well in the few years you came to Anxi, but do you know why? It's not because of how strong you are, but because the people in Anxi are so bad. It's always better to choose a general among the dwarves. You have to pull out one or two. Otherwise, you will be laughed at to death?"
"Even so, you are only at your current level, and it is difficult to improve, right? For someone like you, if you go to Chang'an, you won't even be considered a scum, right?"
Babaka and Ilila sang in harmony, almost like a double act.
Not only do they work together when it comes to fighting, but they are also inseparable when it comes to bickering.
Gao Sanxin said, good guy, he is really an expert.
The two key people were not ashamed but proud. They became more and more enthusiastic as they talked. For a moment, Gao Shen really didn't know what to say.
After the two of them finished speaking, Gao Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "Have you finished talking? Now that I've finished talking, let me say a few words. I'm not bragging, I just want to say that everyone here is rubbish."
Simple, crude, and straight to the point.
Don't give the other party any chance to refute at all.
One move will win.
"Hey, what are you talking about? Who are you calling trash?"
"How dare you guys?"
"You guys are so shameless!"
"If you have the guts to fight, don't hide around and talk nonsense."
In their opinion, scholars are really disgusting.
Not only are they eloquent, but they also understand everyone's concerns very well.
Every time they launch an attack, they always get stuck at just the right spot, leaving people with a lump in their throats, not to mention how uncomfortable it is.
Both of them had been disgusted by Gao Shen more than once.
However, their eloquence is not as good as that of Gao Shen. It seems that they are fighting back, but in fact they are fighting back lonely.
This is what a verbal fight is like, the key is whether you can be steady and ruthless.
Obviously, Gao San understands this principle well.
Babaka and Ilila were about to explode with anger, but this was the situation Gao Shen most wanted to see.
As long as the other party's emotions are out of control, he has more possibilities to operate.
If the other party has always maintained his sense, good fellow, there is really nothing to say.
"Don't you people from the Western Regions always think that the Central Plains is prosperous? Do you know why?"
Gao San was still not satisfied, so he suddenly changed the subject and said: "It's because of the gap between people. It's precisely because there are gaps among millions of people that when accumulated together, there are gaps between countries. Each person is like a brick.
, one brick may not seem obvious, but if many bricks are piled up to build a house, the difference will become larger.”
When Gao Shen was in the academy, he remembered that one of the academy's principles was to teach without distinction.
There is no need for everyone to develop according to a fixed routine, as long as they can maintain their original intention and pursue their pursuit, then that's good.
This also gave Gao Shen a sharp tongue.
Because in Gao San's opinion, speaking is the most important thing for a person to get around in the world.
If you are eloquent, you will have many opportunities. Sometimes the opportunity is clearly right in front of you, but you have to give up because of your eloquence. Does anyone know how uncomfortable that feeling is?
Gao San once missed a very good opportunity because of this.
From then on, he vowed to work hard on his eloquence and ensure that he would not suffer in this regard.
Now the hard work has paid off.
Ilila and Babaka were so angry that one Buddha was born and two Buddhas were reborn in heaven.
Seeing the two people jumping around and looking helpless, Gao San felt so secretly happy.
"Stop talking nonsense to him. This kid is obviously stalling for time. He must be waiting for help. Although we have nothing to fear, in order to prevent long nights and dreams, we should seize the time and take action."
"good!"
Ilila and Babaka finally couldn't stand it anymore.
Since you can't bear it anymore, there's no need to bear it anymore.
The two of them jumped up and rushed towards Gao Shen like a team of predators.
In nature and the animal kingdom, it is common for predators to cooperate in hunting.
This is to increase the probability of success.
After all, failure to hunt in the wild means starvation, and in more serious cases, death.
So the best way is to hunt cooperatively.
This can greatly increase the success rate of hunting.
Of course, Babaka and Ilila just imitated this behavior of animals.
With their strength, they can survive alone in the world.
The reason why we form a group is because the possibility of success is higher.
Who doesn’t want to be able to make steady profits without losing money?
“Don’t overestimate your own capabilities.”
Gao San saw that the two of them were really ruthless this time, so he first said a harsh word, and then started to use the transformation technique.
This can be regarded as a unique skill he has mastered.
This spell can create many illusions in a short period of time.
The role of illusion is naturally to confuse the opponent.
Anyone, even a high-level practitioner, would be confused for a moment if they saw dozens or hundreds of illusions at once.
And this is exactly what Gao Shen wants to see.
In his opinion, as long as the two of them could not determine his specific location immediately, he would have a good chance of making a big fuss.
Because he could take advantage of the two's hesitation to appear behind them and give them a heavy blow.
After a severe blow, Gaoshen can also retreat to its original position to ensure your own safety.
This is a bit like an animal's harassment tactic, which exhausts the prey through repeated attacks.
You may not be able to hunt prey all at once, but as long as you persevere, the probability of success is still quite high.
"This guy started using illusions. It's really shameless."
"Yes, the people of the Central Plains are so shameless. Seeing that they couldn't defeat us, they created so many illusions to confuse us."
"I must find out this bitch's true identity, and then I will peel off his skin and cramps!"
"In this way, you are responsible for the left half, and I am responsible for the right half. We each clear half of it, so that no matter what method he uses to hide, he cannot escape our five-finger barrier."
"Okay, it's settled."
After the two finalized the decision, they quickly started to act separately.
Although there are many illusions, it does not take too long for a high-level practitioner to scan them one by one.
This has the advantage of ensuring that no fish slips through the net and the true identity can be found.
But the disadvantage is that it consumes a lot of money.
A certain amount of cultivation will be lost.
If you are a practitioner of the Demon Sect, you don't have to worry about this, because they can replenish the true energy as quickly as possible. They can greedily absorb the true energy between heaven and earth to replenish themselves.
But other sects of cultivation are completely different.
Even practitioners of the Tantric Sect of the Western Regions cannot guarantee that they will be able to replenish their energy within a short period of time after depleting a certain amount of cultivation energy.
But now they have no choice but to do this.
Otherwise, if Gao Shen is just allowed to talk nonsense and then run away, how will they be able to hang out in the world in the future?
This is no longer a question of how much money their employer Ocampos paid for them to kill Gao San. Even if it was for free, they would do it without hesitation.
But the ideal is beautiful, and the reality is very skinny.
After the two jointly searched, they were surprised to find that there was no trace of Gao San.
This is too weird.
For a moment they felt a little unbelievable.
Maybe it’s because it’s a deception in itself?
"Do you think this guy didn't want to fight with me at all? He created the illusion to confuse us. In fact, his true body has escaped."
"Hey, when you say that, the possibility is really high."
"This guy is so shameless that he can do such despicable things."
"I was so loud with my talk just now, but when it comes time to get serious about it, I get scared. It's really despicable."
"People from the Central Plains are not strange. But now we have a problem, how to find him?"
The two fell into silence for a while.
If Gao Shen deliberately wanted to hide his whereabouts, it would be difficult to find them using the tracking techniques of Buddhists in the Western Regions.
Because tracking is not a category that Buddhists in the Western Regions are good at, they can only be said to have a brief understanding of it, but when it comes to tracking, they are dumbfounded and can easily lose people.
No, they have already lost track of us.
"No, this guy isn't going to fight against Fire Wheel Nation soldiers, is he?"
Babaka suddenly thought of something, slapped his head and said in surprise.
"It is really possible. Now think about it, he has been diverting our attention. Isn't that what he is doing? He makes us lose our minds. And once we lose our minds, naturally we can only follow his rhythm. We
After being led by the nose, he created illusions to confuse him and headed to the city on his own."
The more Ilila thought about it, the more it made sense, but for a moment she gasped.
This is too difficult.
It's not easy for the two of them to figure this step out with their IQs. It's not too late to make amends before it's too late.
Ilila and Babaka woke up from a dream and hurriedly ran towards the city.
"Why did these two guys run back again?"
Gao Shen watched Babaka and Ilila run away, feeling a little confused for a moment.
He was lurking in the dark, waiting for an opportunity to make a move.
But it seems that the two of them are timid before fighting?
I really don't understand.
"Why did they run towards the city?"
Gao San thought about it carefully and said, "Could it be that he wants to solve the trouble at the top of the city and then come back to deal with me? No, I have to rush back."
The situation is really too confusing.
Liu Lin, the protector of Anxi, watched all this happen before his eyes and fell into silence for a while.
This battle is completely different from the previous one.
The previous one was a duel between soldiers from both sides, with almost no influence from practitioners.
But this time the joining of the practitioners greatly affected the course of the war.
The practitioners rely on magic to influence the battle situation, which makes Liu Lin realize that mortals are incomparably insignificant when facing the practitioners.
"Mortals are really too fragile. It turns out that practitioners can withstand thousands of troops."
Liu Lin murmured.
As a general, this is somewhat disappointing.
Because his faith, confidence, and pride all collapsed at this moment.
Originally, he thought that practitioners were just more powerful mortals. How could they be so different if they were all made of flesh and blood?
But now it seems he was wrong.
There are fundamental differences between practitioners and ordinary people.
A practitioner can change the situation of the battle alone, but it is impossible for a mortal to do this.
Even a guy with military power like Liu Lin cannot guarantee that he can influence the situation and control the whole situation in any situation.
This made Liu Lin panic.
Isn't his fate now tightly bound to Gao Shen?
And Gao Shen's position in the army is strictly that of a soldier.
This is just an ordinary civil servant, which is completely different from Liu Lin's status as the Great Protector of Anxi and the Jiedushi of the Four Towns.
For a moment, Liu Lin didn't know whether to be sad or happy, cry or laugh.
But now Liu Lin obviously doesn't have much time to take care of this.
Because at this moment he found that fierce fighting was starting again at the top of the city.
After a pause, this wave of conflict became more violent, with both sides gathering their strength and showing their determination.
For this reason, no one wants to lose at such a critical time.
We only have one breath left, so we have to fight for it no matter what.
"Everyone, rush forward. The time has come to serve the Anxi Army and the Protector-General. We must not embarrass the Protector-General or disappoint him."
"Brothers rushed into the city and captured the enemy chieftain, and the reward was ten thousand taels of silver."
"Work harder, brothers, fame, fortune and wealth are waiting for you."
"Kill one to earn one, kill two to earn a pair."
"Kill!"
Ocampos' originally calm face suddenly became serious again.
This battle was really heart-wrenching and frustrating.
The Anxi Army's resilience may be a bit too strong.
At this moment, Ocampos was already regretting why he wanted to offend such an untouchable master.
But now it's too late to regret, so I can only fight to the end.
"Send the order and let the militiamen also come to the city to fight!"
Amidst the rumbling drums, the Anxi Army charged faster and faster.
They have shown confidence and momentum.
Besides, with Gao Shen holding back the two Western Region cultivators, they had nothing to worry about.
When the two sides started a duel, they were completely worthy of the Fire Wheel Nation's army.
The so-called Fire Wheel Nation's army is actually a group of people who were improvised. They were lucky enough to win against the Anxi Army once before. The same thing cannot happen twice.
The Anzai Army will not fall twice in one place.
The battle on the top of the city was extremely fierce. The two sides fought fiercely, and the sound of killing was loud for a while.
"Fight them! No matter what, you will die. If you extend your head or shrink your head, you will die. We are still cowards!"
"Yes, they also have one head and two arms, and they are not immortal. What are we afraid of!"
"Fight them! Kill, kill, kill!"
"Come on!"
At this moment, the boundaries between the two armies were so blurred that it was difficult to distinguish them with the naked eye.
The soldiers of the Anxi Army struggled with the soldiers of the Fire Wheel Kingdom. They chopped with knives, smashed with their fists, kicked with their feet, and bit with their teeth.
They completely follow the biological instinct to survive!
All they can think about at this moment is survival!
"go to hell!"
Although they have never met each other, they are unceasing enemies at this moment.
Because they know that if their opponent does not die, it will be them.
"Kill, kill, kill!"
The soldiers of the Fire Wheel Kingdom have already had the experience of fighting against the Anxi Army once, so they are very familiar with the routines of the Anxi Army soldiers.
They know what they should do and when.
"Go to hell you!"
With a fierce kick, Liu Erdan kicked away a Fire Wheel Nation soldier who was approaching him and wanted to sneak attack him.
He drew out his sword and slashed hard at the other enemy soldier beside him.
The horizontal knife hit his neck, and blood spurted out instantly.
The enemy soldier desperately tried to block the wound on his neck, but it was obviously in vain.
The severe pain caused his whole body to twitch and blood continued to gush out.
It didn't take long for the soldier to collapse to the ground and stop moving.
"Go to hell!"
Liu Erdan pulled out his knife fiercely and slashed at another soldier who sneaked up on him.
"Die!"
Like a divine help, Liu Erdan killed three enemy soldiers in a short time.
This also greatly stimulated the morale of the Anxi Army, which made the Fire Wheel Nation's army that was about to gain momentum instantly feel discouraged.
The rhythm set by one person can make many people follow the rhythm.
This can make the war completely one-sided.
"Hey, aren't these guys afraid of death?"
"They are really possessed by evil spirits!"
"What evil did we do in our previous life to encounter such a terrible ghost!"
"The devil is clearly asking for his life."
"Help, help!"
The morale of the Fire Wheel Nation's army collapsed in an instant.
Many soldiers ran away with their heads in their hands, not even noticing that this was tantamount to exposing their backs to their opponents.
It is very irrational to show your back to your opponent in a war.
As long as the soldiers of the Anxi Army are willing, they can open a big hole in the bodies of the Fire Wheel Nation soldiers at any time.
Even if these Fire Wheel Nation soldiers were not killed on the spot, they would have died of excessive blood loss.
Their willpower and fighting spirit are far inferior to those of the Anxi Army.
The reason why the fight was back-and-forth at the beginning was because the soldiers of the Anxi Army were at a disadvantage in terms of number, and their number was almost several times that of the opponent.
But as the number of Anxi Army soldiers increases, they have taken the initiative.
Once the Anxi Army takes the initiative, it is almost impossible for them to give back the advantage.
"Everyone should work harder and strive to establish victory in one fell swoop!"
"Yes, it's just the last breath left. You must bite it."
"The Protectorate is watching us from outside the city. Everyone must behave well!"
The officers and soldiers of the Anxi Army who received the blessing of momentum seemed to have divine help, and their momentum was like a rainbow.
"Tsk tsk tsk"
Liu Lin felt very happy when he saw this scene.
"As expected of the soldiers I brought out single-handedly, they are indeed very capable."
The humiliation I had suffered before was swept away at this moment.
Everyone in the Anxi Army showed their best spirit.
It looks like we can win Fire Wheel City tonight.
Haoran Academy, Washing Ink Pond.
Bamboo Forest Swordsman Yao Yan and Zhao Xun were playing chess by the pool.
This is Zhao Xun's first time playing chess with Yao Yan.
"Tsk tsk tsk"
Yao Yan held up his chin and said, "I didn't expect your chess skills to be so superb, you can almost compete with the captain of the mountain."
After a pause, Yao Yan continued: "But it's not the same as the mountain chief."
Zhao Xun thought to himself that of course it would be different.
Good guy, Mr. Shanzhang is self-taught.
Zhao Xun, on the other hand, summed up the routine after reading many chess records from later generations.
It can be said that just by looking at this, you can see the talent gap between the two sides.
Zhao Xun is under a lot of pressure now. If he has to compare with the mountain leader, he might be labeled by others.
And now that he is on the rise, what he fears most is being labeled.
Once someone is labeled, it is difficult to change others' inherent impression of him or her.
As the saying goes, it is easy to put a label on, but difficult to remove it.
"My chess skills are incomparable to those of Shan Zhang."
Zhao Xun simply spread his hands and refused this label.
According to his many years of experience, the flag cannot be set easily, otherwise problems will easily occur.
"Haha, the chief is not here, so you must be too careful."
Yao Yan said calmly: "Actually, your talent is the best among the young people I have ever seen."
"Is this true?"
Everyone likes to hear good things, and Zhao Xun is no exception.
"Of course I take it seriously. When did I, Yao Yan, tell lies?"
Yao Yan raised his eyebrows and then said: "Your talent is really strong, it's visible to the naked eye."
"What kind of talent?"
"Of course it's a talent for cultivation, and oh, there's also a talent for making money."
Zhao Xun was shocked when he heard this.
Cultivate your talent and make money.
These seem to be two completely different fields.
"As for the talent for cultivation, I reluctantly agree, but as for the talent for making money, I really dare not claim to have it."
Zhao Xun swallowed a mouthful of spit, and then said: "There are too many capable people in this field. Let's not talk about the far ones, but the nearby ones. My best friend Wangcai is simply a genius in the business world. Yao Jianxian, don't you?
I have dealt with him. Whenever you have dealt with him, you will understand that some people are born to eat this kind of rice."
"After hearing what you said, I actually want to meet this Wangcai."
Zhao Xun said quickly: "It's simple. If you want to meet him, let me help introduce him. But this guy is very philistine, so I advise you to be more careful and don't be fooled by him."
Yao Yan laughed loudly and said, "You guys are really a pair of bad friends, but I like them."
"bad friend."
It seems that this word is not very good.
"It's not like this is a bad friend. Yao Jianxian, you are not familiar with us. Do you know that we often joke with each other?"
Zhao Xun quickly added: "Actually, between friends, especially good friends, hurting each other can help enhance the relationship. After all, only best friends will talk about everything."
"Well, let's not talk about this. Let's just say that your current level of cultivation is the fourth level, right? How does it feel? How is it different from when you were at the fifth level?"
Oh my god, it’s time to find something different again.
This is what Zhao Xun fears most.
"It's different. To be honest, Yao Jianxian, there's really no difference. It's just that the feeling of true energy is stronger."
"But with Taoist Qi nourishing techniques for neutralization and conditioning, it's actually not bad."
Zhao Xun swallowed his breath and said, "Now those overbearing Qi have become much tamed, at least that's how I feel."
"Well, this is a good thing. This proves that you have stronger control over these infuriating energy."
Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal, said eloquently: "This is the only way to grow into a strong man."
"Hmm, it seems that I have understood it."
Zhao Xun had asked his senior brothers and sisters for advice before, and now he has gradually realized that the most important thing for a powerful high-level practitioner is to maintain Qi.
As long as you hold on to your aura, others will feel that extremely powerful aura when they come into contact with you.
Usually they will give up.
The strong will not take action easily, because they know that one action may determine life or death.
"Keep your Qi well and let your opponent retreat when faced with difficulties, and at least 80% to 90% of conflicts can be avoided."
Yao Yan nodded happily and said: "You have to know that practitioners are also human beings and have flesh and blood. They must make reasonable use of the true energy in their bodies. If not, they are likely to end up in an extremely embarrassing situation, that is, when
When you want to use Qi, you find that there is not enough Qi."
Of course, there is a limit to true energy. The human body is like a container and can only hold a certain amount of true energy in a short period of time.
If it is full of energy, it will overflow. If too much energy is consumed, you will be in a state of loss.
Of course, there is an exception for practitioners, and that is the practitioners of the Demon Sect.
Practitioners of the Demon Sect rely on absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth to improve their own cultivation.
However, this method is very overbearing and can easily break the body.
Therefore, even demon sect practitioners can only use it for a short period of time, and their realm will still plummet after that.
But for them, the improvement in their realm during the battle was enough.
"So you still have to adapt to your current Qi capacity and be able to adjust it freely. A real man can bend and stretch, especially a scholar. Don't show off just to save face."
What Yao Yan said to him can be said to have touched his heart.
Zhao Xun was very grateful after hearing this.
"Now that the mountain leader is away, I always feel empty in my heart."
As soon as Zhao Xun finished speaking, he suddenly heard an explosion.
A circle of light appeared above the ink wash basin, and then a person flashed out of the circle.
Zhao Xun took a closer look and saw that this person was not the mountain chief, but who he was.
"."
"Shan Zhang, is it really you?"
The mountain leader rubbed his head and said with difficulty: "Xiao Qizhu, help me up."
Zhao Xun's heart suddenly thumped.
Good guy, it looks like the mountain leader was seriously injured.
"What's wrong with you?"
Zhao Xun quickly stepped forward and helped the mountain leader up.
In his impression, the mountain leader had never been injured before, at least not such a serious one.
Since Mobei Yibieshan Chief entered the void space, Zhao Xun has not been in contact with him for more than two months.
Now that we are together again, there are many things I want to ask.
Of course, Zhao Xun still knows his priorities clearly. At least for now, he has to help the mountain chief back to the second-story bamboo building.
The Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan naturally also helped.
It can be seen that the mountain leader's injury is indeed serious, but who can let the mountain leader get hurt?
Just thinking about it makes people shudder.
Yao Yan and Zhao Xun helped the mountain chief back to the bamboo house and immediately closed the door.
Although this is Zhongnan Mountain and Haoran Academy, there are restrictions. However, it is better to be cautious in everything.
It would be a very troublesome thing if someone with a heart knew that the mountain leader was injured.
Especially the dog emperor Xianlong who was not a man's son. He had long been dissatisfied with Zhao Xun and the mountain chief, and wanted to get rid of Haoran Academy, but he did not dare to do it because of the mountain chief's prestige.
If he knew that the mountain leader had been seriously injured, he would definitely make a big fuss. If not, he might kill him.
There are three super masters in Chang'an City.
Shan Chang, Yuan Tiangang, Zheng Jie.
If Yuan Tiangang remains neutral, it will be a full-form Zheng Jie against the injured Shan Chang.
If the mountain chief is healthy, then Zhao Xun will not have the slightest worry.
Because he knew very well that a healthy Shan Chang could defeat Zheng Jie.
But the current situation is special. The mountain leader was injured, and it seems that the injury is still serious.
In this case, the situation is really confusing.
Zhao Xun is really not sure who can win.
"Chief, how did you get injured?"
Zhao Xun thought that no matter what, he had to understand the situation first before talking.
It is inappropriate to ask questions before you understand the situation clearly.
"It's a long story."
The mountain chief sighed.
"After I entered the Dark Gate, I discovered that it was a void space, just like an endless sea."
"The vastness is endless, you can't see the edge at a glance, and it's dark."
The mountain chief shook his head and said: "Master tried to force out the true energy to illuminate, but it didn't work."
"I was still unable to see my fingers, and the light seemed to have been swallowed up. Later, I relied on my sense of smell to find the scent of the High Priest of the Demon Sect, and then followed all the way to find him."
"You had a fight with the High Priest of the Demon Sect? And then you lost?"
Zhao Xun was shocked.
In his impression, although the High Priest of the Demon Sect is the practitioner closest to the Mountain Chief in terms of strength, there is still a gap between the two.
Under normal circumstances, the Mountain Chief should be able to steadily defeat the Demon Sect's High Priest.
As a result, the high priest of the Demon Sect actually defeated the mountain chief and seriously injured him?
"of course not."
The mountain chief rolled his eyes in his signature way: "The High Priest of the Demon Sect is my master's defeated general. How could he possibly defeat me? It was because he knew that he was incompetent and chose to run away and break through the knot and the dark wizard of another world.
The group met up. Then my teacher also followed."
hiss.
After hearing this, Zhao Xun probably understood.
It means that the high priest of the Demon Sect and the group of black wizards joined forces to fight against the mountain leader, and then the group fought and injured the mountain leader?
Isn’t this too disrespectful of martial ethics?
"."
"Ahem, excuse me for talking too much, disciple. These guys are so disrespectful of martial ethics, how can you tolerate it?"
The mountain leader shook his head helplessly: "What should I do if I can't bear it? There are so many people in my family, and all of them have the strength of a super master. As a master, it is difficult to defeat four hands with two fists."
"."
Zhao Xun was stunned.
He simply couldn't believe that there would be a situation in this world where seven or eight great masters would surround and attack one great master.
Are you so careless about appearance?
"If this is really the case, it will be very difficult for you to run away."
"Indeed, I was able to escape after losing all my strength. But the price paid was also very high. I lost 30% of my cultivation."
hiss.
Zhao Xun took a breath.
"Thirty percent, that's really a lot. So are you still in the super-level realm now?"
Zhao Xun was a little unsure.
The concept of super-level realm is actually a bit vague.
It's not like there is a very clear division from Grade One to Grade Nine.
"Of course I'm still there. Not to mention losing only 30% of my cultivation, I've lost half of my cultivation. I'm also a great master."
Speaking of this, the mountain chief looked very arrogant.
This is the mountain leader. Even if he is injured, he still will not lower his proud head.
"Then what should we do now? The High Priest of the Demon Sect and the Dark Wizard have joined together. They are definitely trying to penetrate the connection between the two worlds and then invade us."
Zhao Xun could already predict the next plot. It was obvious that Shan Zhang's mistake made everything different.
"This should be."
The mountain chief's face was also very solemn. Zhao Xun had rarely seen the mountain chief look so solemn.
This shows that the mountain chief is not sure that he can resist the joint invasion of the Demon Sect's high priest and the black wizard.
"One month, the teacher needs a month to rest and recover. After one month, the teacher can return to his original state, but before that, it must be delayed as much as possible, otherwise"
The mountain leader didn't finish speaking, but Zhao Xun already understood what he meant.
"It seems like we have to ask our allies to take action."
Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal on the side, said in a deep voice.
"The academy has no allies, not before or now, nor in the future."
The mountain chief shook his head and immediately rejected the plan.
"Some of those so-called allies are afraid of the strength of the academy, so they are forced to form an alliance with the academy. Some think that it is easier to enjoy the shade against a big tree, so they make friends with the academy. To put it bluntly, their friendship is because of their interests. If they abandon their interests, they will definitely cut off from the academy.
It’s clean and tidy, for fear that there will be any more connections.”
The mountain leader sees things very thoroughly and takes a long-term view.
"Won't Dao Sect help us?"
Zhao Xun answered.
"The prison is my foster father, I can go and ask him."
"."
The mountain chief smiled bitterly and said: "The supervisor will not help us. The best situation is if the Taoist sect can stand by and remain neutral."
"It means he doesn't care about the invasion of dark wizards?"
Zhao Xun felt a little unbelievable.
Logically speaking, dark wizards are obviously hostile forces.
"These are two different things. Unless the black wizard threatens the Taoist sect's status as the state religion in the Great Zhou Dynasty, Jian Zheng will not take action."
The mountain leader emphasized again: "You don't have to try it, otherwise it will easily become embarrassing."
The mountain chief is very accurate in judging people. He knows that Yuan Tiangang is an extreme egoist, so he will definitely spread the eagle when he sees the rabbit.
"Forehead"
Zhao Xun was indeed embarrassed.
After all, he is also Yuan Tiangang's adopted son. Is he so shameless?
This makes Zhao Xun look like a blue and thin mushroom.
"You must not leak the news. During this period, the mountain gate is closed and no one is allowed to enter or exit."
The mountain leader said decisively: "Time, the most important thing now is time, we must fight for time."
"The chief is back!"
The academy was filled with joy as if it were a major festival.
The news spread like wildfire in the inner mountain, and all the inner disciples came to visit.
As for the disciples outside the mountain, none of them knew about it.
Because there is a mountain gate between the inner mountain and the outer mountain, no one will enter or exit after closing the mountain gate.
"The mountain chief was actually injured so seriously. It was far more serious than I thought."
Long Qingquan shook his head and said: "Although he has not fallen below the level of a grand master, he no longer has the same dominance as before."
This is critical.
Because the mountain chief is the face of the academy.
As long as the mountain is there for everyone, there is no need to panic.
But now that the mountain chief is seriously injured, many people will be eyeing the academy.
"Now it's our turn to protect the mountain leader."
"Junior brother, now we have to think carefully. There is no airtight wall in this world, and the news cannot be hidden. It is just a matter of time. So if the enemy knows that the mountain leader is injured, he will definitely attack in a big way."
"Can't you keep it? Don't we have restrictions?"
"The ban has a miraculous effect on practitioners below the third level, but it has very little binding force on practitioners above the third level."
Long Qingquan sighed: "If we come, the enemies will definitely be at level three, so we won't be able to stop them with restrictions."
"If that's the case, it would be really difficult."
Zhao Xun sighed: "Now that the high priest of the Demon Sect and the black wizard have joined forces, it is only a matter of time before they break through the knot and come to our world. At that time, the first thing they have to do is to find the mountain chief. Because they know that the mountain chief
Shan Chang is their biggest threat. As long as they deal with Shan Chang, everything else will not be a problem."
"Can we protect the mountain chief?"
The beast knows how to choose the right moment to strike.
The wounded hunter also becomes the prey.
"You have to protect yourself even if you can't protect yourself."
Long Qingquan said word for word: "We will do our best to protect the mountain chief."
Zhao Xun thought to himself that it was meaningless if it was just a slogan.
"Third Senior Brother, do you already have a plan?"
"Of course."
Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan proudly raised his chin and said word by word: "It's all in my head."
"Then let's talk quickly."
"First of all, junior brother, you have to understand what the mountain leader relies on to intimidate his opponents."
"Of course you are so upright."
Zhao Xun said almost without thinking.
"No."
Long Qingquan said lightly: "Haoran's righteousness is just an appearance. Underneath the appearance is the core concept of Shan Zhang."
"What is it?"
"Renyi?"
"It's the fist. Shanzhang believes in the fist. Whoever has a strong fist is the truth and the rule maker."
Long Qingquan gave an unexpected and reasonable answer.
The mountain chief has indeed been instilling this point of view into the academy disciples on weekdays.
"But the mountain leader is injured now, and his fist is no longer strong."
In Zhao Xun's view, this is a paradox. Gu Xi
"So we have to create the illusion that Shan Chang's fist is still very hard."
Long Qingquan said straightforwardly.
Zhao Xun had to admit that in some aspects, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan did have some ideas.
It is not without reason that Long Qingquan is called the disciple who is most like the mountain leader.
"Third Senior Brother, do you already have a complete plan? Tell me about it."
Zhao Xun knew that the third senior brother definitely had a complete plan before he said this.
"Well, what I mean is that one of us can pretend to be the mountain commander. Only in this way can we deceive the enemy."
Hiss, Zhao Xun couldn't help but gasped when he heard this.
That's it?
Is this the plan of Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan?
"It's really simple and crude."
Indeed, with the brains of Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan, it is impossible to make too thorough a plan.
Simple and crude.
This is in line with Third Senior Brother's consistent behavior style.
Of course, this method is not completely impossible.
The key question is who will play the role of the mountain chief?
"Does Third Senior Brother have a candidate?"
"certainly."
"who is it?"
"Far away in the horizon, yet so close."
"Um?"
"It's down there."
"."
Zhao Xun was completely speechless at this time. The third senior brother was really not ashamed at all, his face was not red and his heart was not beating. Tsk tsk tsk, he is worthy of being the third senior brother.
Zhao Xun secretly cursed for a while, not knowing what to say to the third senior brother.
"Third senior brother, the biggest problem with you pretending to be the mountain leader is that you are mature and prudent. You can't escape like this."
Zhao Xun felt that the most similar thing between the third senior brother and the mountain leader was that they were both arrogant.
Apart from that they are very coquettish.
But other than that, the two really have nothing in common.
Moreover, Shanchang's arrogance and coquettishness are supported by his status as the first person in the world and a Confucian sage in the world.
It seems so appropriate and natural.
The arrogance and coquettishness of the third senior brother Long Qingquan seemed a bit strange and out of place.
Maybe this is the difference between strength and rank.
However, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan obviously doesn't think this is a difficult matter.
"Junior brother, this is your negligence. Haven't you noticed that the mountain leader also has a childlike innocence? Of course, the mountain leader is still very mature and steady most of the time, but sometimes he does behave like a child.
The difference between me and the chief is this skin. This skin misleads you, making you think that I am not like the chief. If I had a skin that was exactly the same as the chief, you would definitely think that I am the chief.
.”
Tsk tsk tsk.
Third Senior Brother's brainwashing ability is really extremely powerful.
Zhao Xun was almost brainwashed.
Of course, seeing how excited the third senior brother was, Zhao Xun couldn't refuse him directly.
"Then give it a try. I'm just curious, Third Senior Brother, how you can change your skin to one that is exactly the same as Shan Zhang's."
"This is simple. Your sixth senior brother is the best at this. Ask him to ensure that the fake is the real one."
What?
Zhao Xun was shocked.
Sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou can do this?
This skill point is probably too scattered.
"Well, your sixth senior brother knows the art of disguise. As long as you give him a mold, he can copy it one to one. It will be 99% similar. The reason why it is not 100% consistent is because everyone has something unique.
Points that only those closest to them will understand."
"Oh okay."
Seeing that the third senior brother was so excited, Zhao Xun couldn't wait to go to the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou to give it a try.
"Then let's go find Sixth Senior Brother quickly."
"good."
Sixth Senior Brother Lu Guangdou was also shocked after hearing Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan's suggestion. It took him a long time to calm down his surprise.
"Why is it not possible, Sixth Senior Brother?"
"It's okay, but it's really a big challenge."
Lu Guangdou said seriously: "Junior brother, does the mountain leader know about this?"
He seemed a little guilty.
After all, as a disciple of the mountain leader, it would be a very serious matter if he pretended to be the mountain leader but did not get the mountain leader's consent.
If the mountain chief found out later, he would at least scold him, or at worst, he might be expelled from the mountain gate.
Lu Guangdou went from Shuzhong to Chang'an to study, and it took a lot of effort to enter the academy and worship under the master of the mountain. He did not want all these years of hard work to be in vain.
"Well"
Long Qingquan showed some hesitation.
"In my opinion, it's better not to tell the chief of the mountain about this matter."
"Why?"
This time Zhao Xun and Lu Guangdou asked in unison.
"Think about it, the mountain leader is now seriously injured and must rest to recover. If we tell him at this time that we are going to pretend to be him, the mountain leader will definitely have a psychological burden. Not only will this affect his recovery, it may also cause him to carry a huge burden.
Psychological pressure. Not only the mountain leader will be under pressure, but I, pretending to be the mountain leader, will also be under pressure."
Long Qingquan swallowed and said: "So the best choice is not to tell the mountain chief. This is good for everyone. Of course, I am just suggesting that if you feel it is inappropriate, you can discuss it again."
Zhao Xun fell into deep thought for a while.
Third Senior Brother's concerns are not completely unreasonable.
The mountain leader's injury was really serious this time, and it will take a month to recover. During this time, it is best for the disciples of the Academy to help the mountain leader carry it through.
There is really no need to let the mountain chief know that they are pretending to be him unless it is absolutely necessary.
In this way, the psychological pressure of the mountain leader will also increase sharply.
Of course everything is a double-edged sword.
They didn't tell the mountain chief. The mountain chief would not be under any psychological pressure.
But you will definitely have to blame yourself afterwards.
At that time, it will be up to all the disciples in the academy to shoulder the responsibility.
It's not just a problem for the third senior brother and the sixth senior brother, nor is it just a problem for Zhao Xun, it's a problem for all of them.
"I think we can give it a try, but does this matter require the consent of Senior Sister and Second Senior Sister?"
Zhao Xun finally confirmed.
"Of course."
Third senior brother Long Qingquan said in a deep voice: "Such a big matter, of course, can only be carried out after the two senior sisters confirm it. Let's go and tell the two senior sisters."
"Another point."
Long Qingquan seemed to suddenly think of something: "Except for senior sister and second senior sister, you and I should not talk about it anymore. I'm worried that if too many people know, something will happen."
"But most of the inner disciples in the academy know that the Master is back and injured."
"If there is anything difficult to explain, just say that the mountain chief has boundless power and his recovery speed is much faster than expected."
Long Qingquan rolled his eyes when he heard this.
"Junior brother, the mountain leader has such a high prestige, it is not reasonable for the academy disciples to believe that the mountain leader will recover early."
"That's true."
Zhao Xun smiled bitterly and said: "That's okay, then it's settled. As long as the senior senior sister and the second senior sister agree, we will let the sixth senior brother disguise you and dress you up like a mountain leader. But what about the true energy? You are the second senior sister."
There is a world of difference between the quality of cultivation and the Shanchang's Qi. If there really is a super-grade high priest of the Demon Sect, they will definitely be able to sense the difference directly when the black wizard comes."
Zhao Xun asked very cautiously.
"This is the only flaw. If these super priests and wizards come together in a group, they will definitely be able to sense the strangeness of the true energy. So we must gather everyone's true energy to confuse the fake with the real one."
Long Qingquan said very seriously.
"Gathering everyone's energy? What does this mean?"
Zhao Xun became more and more confused as he listened. There was something in what the third senior brother said.
"Junior brother, what do you think?"
Long Qingquan swallowed and then continued: "Can the soul leave the body? Can the true energy be forced out of the body? Since these can be achieved, what is impossible about raising the true energy?"
"You mean, we focus all our energy on you?"
"Of course."
Long Qingquan nodded and said: "That's what I mean. Junior brother is still very smart."
He rubbed his palms, and then said very seriously: "The highest level among us is the senior sister and the second senior sister. They are only one layer of window paper away from the first rank. They can barely be regarded as the first rank. Next is me.
You and your sixth brother, our realm is probably in the second level. Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan is a real first-level one. I made a rough calculation and it only takes the five of us to fuse our true energy to almost reach the super level."
"Well"
Now Zhao Xun was dumbfounded.
"Is it really possible to reach the super level?"
"certainly."
Long Qingquan spread his hands and said: "This is inevitable, but the zhenqi we merged is unstable and may disperse at any time. We can only deceive our opponents for a short time."
"Well, if you reach the super level, you can still deceive your opponent."
If the opponent realizes that Shanchang is still at the super level after being seriously injured, they will definitely be wary, right?
"Will Yao Jianxian agree?"
Senior sister, second senior sister, third senior brother, and sixth senior brother Zhao Xun are not worried.
After all, they are all disciples of the academy. If the academy is in trouble or the mountain leader is in trouble, it is natural for them to take action.
But the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan is an outsider after all, he just lives in the academy.
Would he be willing to sacrifice part of his true energy to pretend to be the mountain leader for his third senior brother Long Qingquan?
"Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan? Of course he will agree. Not to mention his friendship with the mountain chief, even considering the relationship between your second senior sister, he will naturally give up his true energy willingly."
What Long Qingquan said was categorical, and Zhao Xun felt relieved.
"Well, if that's the case, there's really nothing to worry about."
Senior Sister and Second Senior Sister had very different reactions after hearing Long Qingquan's plan.
The senior sister was shocked, but the second senior sister was very calm, as if she thought it was normal for this suggestion to come from Long Qingquan's mouth.
"Senior Sister, Second Senior Sister, now this is the best solution we can come up with."
Seeing that the two of them had not expressed their opinions for a long time, Zhao Xun started beating a drum beside him.
It's not that he thinks Long Qingquan's plan is so reliable, he really can't think of any other good ideas at the moment.
"Well, junior brother, how about this? We can give up some of our true energy, but we have to keep some of it. Otherwise, those guys will definitely be able to detect something strange."
"Of course. This way we can protect ourselves. Otherwise, if they attack us, we will have no choice but to run away."
Zhao Xun responded while winking at Long Qingquan.
After receiving the signal, Long Qingquan nodded immediately and said: "Yes, junior brother is right, that's what I mean. Senior sisters, it's up to you to decide how much true energy you are willing to keep in your body. Just make sure that the amount of true energy you transfer is increased."
It’s enough for me to achieve super quality.”
Long Qingquan was afraid that the two would misunderstand, so he quickly added: "You only need to deceive the enemy who committed the crime, and then you can take back your true energy."
Long Qingquan did this without any selfish motives, but he was afraid that the two senior sisters would misunderstand, so it was better to explain some things clearly at the beginning.
Zhao Xun almost lost his temper after hearing this.
Damn it, Third Senior Brother, can you do it? You said such a good thing as if you were a thief with a guilty conscience.
The two senior sisters shouldn't be so small-minded, right?
Zhao Xun quickly turned to the two senior sisters. Seeing the senior sister's expressionless face, the second senior sister raised her eyebrows, feeling very uneasy.
He is now afraid that his two senior sisters will reject him.
Because in his opinion, this is the most reasonable way that can be thought of at present.
"That's all, just follow what Third Junior Brother said."
Senior sister Xiao Ning came over and said loudly for a long time.
"Well, just do as you said."
Second senior sister Liu Yingying also expressed her position.
call.
Hearing this, Zhao Xun breathed a sigh of relief.
Good guy, I scared him just now.
If these two academy eldest ladies had not nodded, everything they had planned just now would have been impossible to realize.
"The only one left now is Yao Yan, the Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal."
Zhao Xun clenched his fists and said.
Sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou was the first one they persuaded, and now the two senior sisters also agreed to join the plan.
Then the last person left is also the most critical link - the Bamboo Forest Sword Fairy Yao Yan.
Beside the bamboo forest.
A man wearing a bamboo hat listened to Long Qingquan's plan with interest while stroking his chin with one hand.
Of course he is Yao Yan.
Long Qingquan's words aroused, spitting stars flew everywhere, and Zhao Xun couldn't help but feel worried for him.
Third Senior Brother, Third Senior Brother, you should at least pay attention to your image.
"Wait a minute. You just said that you wanted to use the true energy of a super-level practitioner to scare away other intruders. But if I remember correctly, even if the mountain leader's realm has plummeted, he is still a super-level practitioner. Why do you need to go to such unnecessary lengths?
Woolen cloth?"
Yao Yan keenly caught the loopholes in Long Qingquan's words.
"No."
Long Qingquan had naturally thought of this problem a long time ago.
He spread his hands and said: "The mountain leader is in retreat. The worst case scenario is that he will create a shield while recuperating to ensure that he is not disturbed by the outside world. You know the shield, which can isolate any outside world.
information. Therefore, during this period of time, outsiders will not be able to feel his presence."
After a pause, Long Qingquan continued: "So the intruders may not be able to sense the existence of the mountain chief. The temporary super-grade practitioner we created is the only super-grade practitioner in the academy. Of course, there are also mountain leaders.
There is no possibility of completely sealing oneself off. But wouldn't it be better if it were this way? These intruders know that there is more than one super master in the academy. One of them is the mountain chief, and the other person hiding in the dark will make them even more afraid.
As long as they are wary, it will be beneficial to us. After all, we don't want to really fight. It is best to be able to pull off an empty city strategy."
"It makes some sense. Okay, I agree to join."
Yao Yan said word by word.
After Yao Yan agreed to join, the academy team was officially established!
The reason why Hanhan Tenth Senior Brother Xu Rong is not allowed to know about this plan is not because he dislikes Tenth Senior Brother's low level of cultivation.
After all, the tenth senior brother can be regarded as a third-level practitioner.
And Zhao Xun, who was at a lower level of cultivation, knew it all. Considering his level of cultivation, there was absolutely no reason to dislike Xu Rong.
Just because the tenth senior brother was a fool, Zhao Xun was worried that Xu Rong would expose the matter with his big mouth.
It would be bad if everyone knew about it.
Therefore, to be on the safe side, the team members did not include Tenth Senior Brother Xu Rong.
Senior Sister, Second Senior Sister, Third Senior Brother, Sixth Senior Brother, Bamboo Forest Sword Immortal Yao Yan.
These five people are the main players of the team, and Zhao Xun is the substitute.
Of course, it is best not to use Zhao Xun as a substitute.
Because when that time came, it proved that the situation had reached a point where it was so urgent that we had to take action.
With Zhao Xun's strength as a fourth-level practitioner, it is nothing more than a drop in the bucket.
So Zhao Xun doesn't want to get to that point.
He plays more of a central dispatching role.
Now that you have decided to take action, you naturally have to show some attitude from the beginning.
At Zhao Xun's urging, the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou began to carry out this plan. The first step was to disguise the third senior brother.
Disguise is actually a general term, and there are many types under it.
Different types of disguises have different effects. Generally speaking, the closer to the physical disguise, the better the effect.
When it comes to magic and illusion, the effect is slightly worse.
The use of disguise involves Zhao Xun's blind spot, so Zhao Xun did not dare to say anything and just watched quietly from the side.
"Sixth Brother, I thought you were going to make a human skin mask for Third Brother."
Zhao Xun saw that the sixth senior brother Lu Guangdou was using a strange pen to draw on the third senior brother's face, and he couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Um?"
Lu Guangdou was stunned for a moment, and then the pen in his hand drew a line on Long Qingquan's face. Long Qingquan grimaced in pain.
"Hey, Lao Liu, please be gentle and don't get distracted."
Zhao Xun also asked curiously: "Sixth Brother, this is not the eyebrow pencil in your hand?"
"eyebrow pencil?"
Lu Guangdou almost burst out laughing.
"How could it be an eyebrow pencil? How could you think this is an eyebrow pencil in my hand?"
"This knife is also called a leather carving knife. It can carefully carve a person's appearance according to the expected appearance, so that it is almost the same. From a distance, you can't tell the difference at all."
Hiss, is it so scary?
Zhao Xun couldn't help being shocked after hearing this.
This is a carving knife.
It seemed that the sixth senior brother was really carving. No wonder the third senior brother Long Qingquan grinned in pain just now.
Even a tough guy wouldn't be able to handle this.
"Then I have a question that I don't know whether to talk about or not."
"you say."
"Can this thing be restored? If you don't use the human skin mask, you can just tear it off. But how can you restore this thing after it's been carved?"
"recovery?"
Lu Guangdou smiled and said, "I'll just carve it back again."
"."
Now it was Zhao Xun and Long Qingquan's turn to be speechless together.
"Lao Liu, are you serious? Are you saying that you will have to do it again?"
Long Qingquan asked excitedly.
No wonder he was so excited. People who have never experienced it don't understand how painful he is.
It was really carving on the flesh with a knife, without anesthesia, and it was really painful.
If he hadn't forced out his true energy to relieve the pain, he might have fainted from the pain.
"Third Senior Brother, you should know me. I never tell lies. Everything I just said is true. Oh, Third Senior Brother, please bear with me, it may be more painful next time."
"etc!"
Third senior brother Long Qingquan quickly stopped and said, "You mean you didn't use your full strength just now?"
"Of course, I was just carving some edge parts, like the core eyes, ears, mouth and nose. I haven't even touched the knife yet."
"."
Long Qingquan swallowed and tried his best to hide the fear in his heart.
"continue"
He hesitated again and again and said this.
He knew very well that at this point there was no possibility of going back.
If he goes back on his word at this time, not only the sixth junior brother, but also the younger junior brother will look down on him.
This was definitely not what Long Qingquan expected.
"Okay, then I can use my strength."
Hiss, just watching from the sidelines made Zhao Xun feel frightened.
Senior Brother Six really has a big heart.
If this knife was even a little crooked, Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan would be disfigured.
It took about half an hour for the entire disguise technique to be completed.
The moment the Sixth Senior Brother put down the carving knife in his hand, the Third Senior Brother Long Qingquan jumped up.
"It's finally over. Come get a mirror, little junior brother, I want to see what I look like now."
Zhao Xun responded quickly and went to get the bronze mirror to show to his third senior brother.
He can now fully understand the feelings of the third senior brother, but from an objective perspective, the sixth senior brother's craftsmanship is indeed very good. This carving can almost be said to be fake, at least 99% similar to the mountain chief.
Of course, the parties concerned still have to look at it themselves before making a final decision.
When Zhao Xun handed the bronze mirror to Long Qingquan, Long Qingquan immediately compared it carefully.
"Well, it looks like, it does look similar. Hey, why do I feel like there seems to be something wrong somewhere."
Long Qingquan was scratching his head.
"But I can't tell you right now. Junior brother, come and take a look and see what's a little strange."
Zhao Xun then came closer and observed carefully.
"There's nothing wrong with the nose, there's nothing wrong with the eyes, there's nothing wrong with the ears, there's nothing wrong with the mouth, there's nothing wrong with that."
Zhao Xun looked around and saw nothing strange.
Now, the facial features of the third senior brother Long Qingquan are very similar to those of Shan Zhang when taken alone, but when combined together, they do have a strange feeling.
"Yes, I understand what's wrong. It's the beard. Third brother, you don't have a beard!"
Zhao Xun suddenly understood something, slapped his head and shouted.
"ah?"
Long Qingquan touched his bald chin, feeling suddenly embarrassed.
"No wonder, I just felt something strange somewhere, it turned out to be here."
In ancient times, people paid more attention to beards.
Generally, adult men grow beards. The older they are, the longer their beards grow.
People like Shan Chang who are over half a century old grow their beards very long.
But generally young people in their teens and early twenties do not grow beards.
Although the third senior brother Long Qingquan is already in his thirties, he has always taken good care of himself and is known as fresh meat.
In order to maintain his youthful look, he never grows a beard. Not only does he not grow a beard, he shaves it every day.
So his chin has always been bald, which is very conspicuous at first glance.
"Tsk, tsk, it turns out that this is the problem. Lao Liu, please come and stick a fake beard on me."
As the saying goes, make up for whatever is missing.
Senior Brother Six is really very professional when it comes to styling.
Zhao Xun thought that if Brother Six traveled through time, he could apply to be a stylist.
With his professional attitude and approach, he will definitely become a very popular Tony teacher.
"Third Senior Brother, there are many types of fake beards. Which one do you like?"
Senior Brother Six placed several beard materials in front of Long Qingquan and asked him to choose carefully.
"Well, this one looks good, and this one is very reliable."
Long Qingquan was confused for a moment and didn't know how to choose.
Zhao Xun has experienced this kind of difficulty in choosing, so he understands the mood of the third senior brother at this moment.
But after all, you still have to make a choice, and you should never be disturbed by it.
There is no time to hesitate at this time.
"Hmm, in my opinion, this one is pretty good."
Zhao Xun helped his third senior brother Long Qingquan make a decision, which was a great feeling.
"Well, that's really good."
Long Qingquan also admired Zhao Xun's choice. In his opinion, his junior brother's aesthetics was online and completely consistent with his.
"I just don't know if other junior sisters and senior sisters like it."
"."
Zhao Xun thought to himself, my dear, the third senior brother’s idol burden is quite heavy, yet he actually values the opinions of his senior sisters so much.
"Ahem, third senior brother, this costume is also temporary. It is just to pretend to be the mountain leader to help the academy overcome difficulties. You don't have to care so much. The senior sisters will understand and it will not damage your image."
Zhao Xun knew very well what the third senior brother was concerned about, so he was able to speak to the point. In this way, the psychological pressure of the third senior brother Long Qingquan was naturally relieved a lot.
"Well, that's it. I'm afraid I'll still hesitate if I continue to read it."
Long Qingquan smiled bitterly, spread his hands and said: "Junior brother, I have sacrificed a lot for the academy this time. You must remember my kindness. If the mountain chief asks about it in the future, you must speak for me."
"Don't worry, Third Senior Brother, everyone sees what you do. If the mountain chief is really blamed in the future, we will definitely speak for you."
"Well, that's good."
Long Qingquan breathed a sigh of relief and said.
The Anxi Army has gained control of the top of Huolun City!
This was of course done with the full support of the senior high school students.
After all, there are two Tantric practitioners from the Western Regions, Babaka and Ilila, who are eyeing him.
If Gao San couldn't hold them back, the soldiers of the Anxi Army would naturally not be able to completely let go.
Of course, Gao San did not disappoint the soldiers of the Anxi Army, nor did he disappoint the military governor Liu Lin.
He showed the powerful explosive power of a third-grade practitioner, and also showed the strength of a former academy disciple.
He did not embarrass the academy, did not embarrass the scholars, did not embarrass the warriors, and did not embarrass the people of the Central Plains.
The Buddhist monks of the Tantric Sect of the Western Regions did not defeat Gao San in a two-on-one situation. Instead, they were beaten so hard that they ran away with their heads in their hands.
Gao San won this battle completely.
After seizing control of the city, the Anxi Army quickly began to expand its advantage.
This is also the part they are most familiar with.
Control the four city gates, and then use the city gates as a stronghold to start expansion.
During this process, the soldiers of the Fire Wheel Nation fled in all directions, almost instinctively fleeing to various areas.
Of course, most of them retreated to the palace.
Because the palace is their last stronghold.
King Ocampos looked ashen.
Although he knew that the Anxi army was powerful, he did not expect that his army would be so vulnerable this time.
Even with the blessing and help of two Buddhist monks from the Western Regions, the Anxi army's offensive was still not stopped, and the outer city was breached in just one day.
You know, the last time they defended for a whole day and then repelled the Anxi Army.
In just over half a month, the combat power gap between the two sides has changed so dramatically, which is really hard to accept.
"How could this happen? Why did it become like this?"
Ocampos was puzzled.
"Your Majesty, let us escort you out now while there is still a chance."
General Oscar knelt on the ground and said with his hands clasped in fists.
In his opinion, although the Anxi Army has now controlled the city gates on all sides, the situation in the city is still very chaotic. If they attack with all their strength while the situation is still chaotic, there is a high possibility that they can get out.
But it’s really hard to say if it drags on any longer.
The longer they delay, the worse it will be for them. Once the Anxi army has a firm foothold in the city, they will inevitably start to besiege the palace.
There are 80,000 Anxi troops and they will surround the palace.
Let alone an army, not even a fly can escape.
"Tsk tsk tsk"
Ocampos smiled bitterly.
"Charge out? Do you believe this? You should have seen the fighting power of the Anxi Army during the fierce battle today. Can our soldiers win? Don't deceive yourself."
"But how will your Majesty know if it doesn't work if you don't try it? We can't just sit back and wait for death."
Oscar seemed a little unwilling.
He admitted that the Anxi Army's comprehensive combat strength was superior to theirs, but the problem was that now was the time to fight tooth and nail.
When people are desperate, they rely on instinct to fight, and the issue of strength can be covered up to a large extent.
At least that's what Oscar thinks.
The Anxi Army is certainly powerful, but they are also afraid of three-pointers when facing a life-threatening opponent, right?
After all, no one wants to bet their life on an unnecessary duel.
Once military merit is gone, you can earn it again in the future. There is always a chance to earn it. But you only have one life. If you lose it and try to get it back, it will be impossible.
Oscar knew very well that he could no longer hesitate at this time.
As time goes by, the possibility of their escape becomes smaller and smaller.
"Authentic, yes, authentic!"
Ocampos held his head in his hands and chanted like a man possessed.
"We can dig a tunnel out."
"Your Majesty, it's too late to dig tunnels now."
Oscar almost lost his breath when he heard what Ocampos said.
"It will take at least a dozen people to dig the tunnel. And now the Anxi Army is already gathering towards the palace. If they attack with all their strength, they can take down the palace in one day at most. We really can't wait any longer."
"Hasarka, what do you think we should do now?"
Ocampos turned to Hasalka, his eyes as wide as cowbells.
".I don't know, really don't ask me, I don't know."
Hasalka is really broken now.
Originally, they had a chance to form an alliance with Zuyan Country.
If the two countries form an alliance to jointly fight against the Anxi Army, it may be another outcome.
But Ocampos flatly refused to save face, which was tantamount to blocking another possibility for them.
Now at this time, Ocampos came to ask him what to do?
How dare he.
"Maybe we can try to break out."
Seeing that Hasalka couldn't come up with an answer, Ocampos sighed and finally made a decision.
He also knew that if he continued to wait, he would be waiting for death. If he chose to break out at this time, he still had a chance of survival.
"Okay, I will go and make arrangements now. Please put on your armor. Breaking through is very dangerous. We must try our best to ensure that we are not harmed by arrows."
Liu Lin held the horse's rein with one hand and looked at the palace not far away with the attitude of a conqueror.
In his opinion, this magnificent palace is like his trophy.
Although this trophy has not been obtained yet, it is only a matter of time, sooner or later!
Liu Lin felt very proud, not only proud of himself, but also proud of the entire Anxi Army.
The Anxi Army suffered heavy losses when they attacked Huolun City, and after a short rest, they had mostly recovered.
The Anxi Army wanted to avenge its previous humiliation in this battle, and they did it.
They used practical actions to prove that they were worthy of this victory, and also proved that their previous defeat to the Fire Wheel Nation's army was just a hidden loss.
As long as the soldiers of the Anxi Army can come out of the shadows, they will still be the most trustworthy and powerful army.
"Protector, the soldiers are waiting for your order."
The soldiers standing aside respectfully clasped their fists at Liu Lin.
"Um."
Liu Lin did not give the order immediately, but pondered deeply.
He was waiting for the surrender of King Ocampos of the Fire Wheel Nation.
If Ocampos is willing to plead guilty at this time, perhaps Liu Lin will lower his punishment.
But if Ocampos is stubborn and stubborn, he will fight to the end.
Then Liu Lin would order the entire palace to be burned to the ground, leaving no trace behind.
War is cruel, but behind the cruelty is the game of interests.
If the two sides can finally reach an agreement, Liu Lin does not want the situation to develop to such an uncontrollable point.
He hoped that Ocampos would be wise and not get carried away and do stupid things.
"Let's wait another half hour. If they don't walk out of the palace and surrender after half an hour, then order a general attack."
Liu Lin decided to give them another half hour.
Once half an hour is up, they will never wait another moment.
"Protector, the gate of the palace is open."
The moment the soldiers saw the palace gate opening, they immediately reported it to the Grand Protector Liu Lin.
"Um"
Liu Lin was very satisfied.
It seems that this Ocampos is still a wise man.
Knowing that there was no future in continuing to resist, they took the initiative and surrendered.
It's good to surrender.
For Liu Lin, he has now taken control of Huolun City, and naturally he does not want any more casualties among the soldiers of the Anxi Army.
And it all depends on Ocampos' attitude.
If Ocampos decides to fight to the end, then no matter what prediction Liu Lin made beforehand, it will be useless.
But it was obvious that Ocampos made a decision that pleased Liu Lin.
"But, it doesn't seem quite right."
But Liu Lin took a closer look and felt something was wrong.
"If the opponent really wants to surrender, why is he still riding a horse? It seems that he is wearing armor. This obviously does not mean to surrender?"
When Liu Lin saw the opponent's formation clearly, he gasped for a moment.
"What are you doing?"
Rush up, the other side rushes up!
Just after the opponent launched the charge, Liu Lin finally realized that Ocampos was not surrendering, but breaking out!
"The whole army forms an array!"
After realizing the seriousness of the problem, Liu Lin immediately issued the order.
He knows very well that the most critical thing right now is the formation.
As long as the soldiers of the Anxi Army can put up a suitable formation, no matter how the Fire Wheel Country's army charges, they will end up in a mess and there will be no good end.
And if the Anxi army did not set up a good formation, it was really possible that a wave of cavalry from the Fire Wheel Kingdom would break out of a large hole.
This is the advantage of cavalry.
Impact, unparalleled impact!
But the Anxi Army was a typical army that used infantry to restrain cavalry.
They were able to withstand cavalry charges in a variety of situations.
The cavalry of the Fire Wheel Kingdom?
In their eyes this is not worth mentioning at all.
But Ocampos was obviously eager to escape, so he used all his special skills this time.
The Royal Cavalry Guards are heavy cavalry.
All horses are covered with a full set of heavy armor.
These heavy armors protect horses from harm.
As for the cavalry themselves, they are naturally fully armed.
Their bodies are covered with armor, which can be said to protect their teeth.
In this way, Anxi's army could not easily hurt them, whether through archery or any other means.
But Liu Lin didn't see it that way.
"Archer, prepare, fire arrows!"
After a brief order, the archers of the Anxi Army fired a volley.
Arrows were scattered all over the sky towards the enemy cavalry, like a downpour.
But Ocampos and the others had already given it a go. Not to mention facing a barrage of arrows, even if they were faced with mountains of swords and seas of fire, they would not hesitate to rush forward.
"Rush over, don't stop, don't look, just rush over."
"If you don't want to lose your life, don't hesitate and use your momentum to break through the enemy's blockade."
"These Anxi troops are all fake, they look good but they are useless, so don't be afraid."
Under the roars of Oscar and others, the Fire Wheel Nation cavalry really gave up all their fears.
Empty yourself and get rid of all distracting thoughts.
Only by charging in anger can you have a chance.
Opportunities are not given by God, but earned by oneself.
There must be no hesitation at this time.
The arrows hitting their armor did not cause any fatal damage. The armor was so protective that the arrows were like scratching an itch.
Except for some cases where they were unlucky enough and arrows were shot directly into their eyes, basically none of the Fire Wheel Nation's cavalry suffered any damage.
"Great, great."
Ocampos was secretly happy.
It seems that there are many choices for this round of charging.
At least so far, the Anxi Army has no good solution for their charge.
They have a good chance of breaking through the Anxi army's blockade with a single charge and escaping to heaven.
