Chapter 209 Skeleton Legion(1/2)
In the camp, Xie Liuyun was on duty, sitting by the bonfire, looking at the flames silently, his eyes were like two balls of fire, and his heart was quite uneasy. He used a knife to cut a piece of meat from the lamb leg and threw it into the air. The iron-backed falcon drew a silver-gray light, and his sharp beak accurately grasped the mutton and swallowed it.
Luo Dongcheng's violent cough sounded from the camp behind him. Not long after, he walked out of it, blocked his lips and coughed twice, and said to Xie Liuyun: "You go and rest, I can't sleep anyway."
Xie Liuyun threw another piece of mutton into the air, and held it with iron-backed Cang Falcon, swallowed it, then flapped its wings and left.
Luo Dongcheng came to him and sat down, added firewood to the fire, and looked at the snow slopes in the south: "They have followed."
Xie Liuyun smiled and said, "Let them follow me, it's not the enemy anyway."
Luo Dongcheng said: "I believe that we can't?"
"It's not that I can't trust us, it's that I can't trust everyone..."
"Ah!" A scream suddenly came from the camp. The two of them looked at each other, stood up, and rushed towards the camp that screamed almost at the same time. Before they could approach the camp, they screamed one after another.
Several warriors escaped from the camp tent with a life of life. Before they could escape to their side, they were stabbed into the back of the heart by a rusty spear, and the blood-stained spearhead was revealed from the warrior's chest.
The golden light in Luodongcheng's hand surged, and the golden spear penetrated the enemy in the camp tent like a rainbow. Before the spear arrived, the powerful impact force rolled up and ripped the entire camp tent, showing two white bones inside. They had just killed four sleeping warriors in the camp tent, and the last warrior had just escaped from the camp tent and was assassinated again.
Luo Dongcheng roared, and the golden spear in his hand turned into a golden dragon, and rushed straight to the head of the skeleton in the center to stab. The golden spear penetrated the skeleton's skull, and the dark force was completely revealed after hitting the target, just like a bomb exploding in the skeleton's head, blowing its bare head into pieces.
Xie Liuyun roared: "Fight!" With his fists trembled, two fireballs rushed towards the other two skeletons. Chen Qiongnian divided the demon-suppressing master into the ninth-grade twenty-seventh realm. Luodongcheng has the strength of the sixth-grade spirit-eating realm, and Xie Liuyun is better than him. He has reached the seventh-grade spirit-gathering realm. He is also the first person below Chen Qiongnian in the demon-suppressing department.
The realm of the demon-squeezing master was Chen Qiongnian personally. In fact, even if he reached the ninth-level demon-destroying realm, that is, the great master realm, Chen Qiongnian's original intention of dividing the ninth-level was to expand the influence of the demon-squeezing department. As for whether he himself has the strength of a great master or not, no one knows whether Chen Qiongnian was able to grasp the phoenix level of the heavenly demon-level many years ago, which is enough to prove that his strength should have reached the great master realm long ago.
At this time, the surviving warriors escaped from the camp. They dispatched a total of 300 people, and nearly fifty people were killed by the skeleton warriors in their sleep.
At this time, from the snow around, white bones broke out from the snow. Xie Liuyun looked up and saw that there were as many as a thousand people in this skeleton army, which had surrounded their camp.
Xie Liuyun shouted: "Don't panic, arrange the Hunyuan Array!"
The surviving warriors gathered around them, lined up in a circular array, protected their bodies with shields, aimed at the outside with long spears, temporarily building a line of defense, and more than a thousand skeletons around rushed towards them.
Xie Liuyun soared into the air, and the surrounding warriors raised their shields above their heads. Xie Liuyun stepped on the shields with both feet and ran quickly along the shields. While running, he swung out his hands in turn. Fireballs formed a fire chain connected to the end. The fire chain expanded and radiated to the surroundings, igniting the skeletons that attacked first. More than a hundred white bones fell into the burning of the fire, and the fire wall temporarily blocked the attack of the skeleton army.
The snow surface in the north was as undulating as boiling. Skeleton knights appeared under the snow surface. They rode bone horses with weapons in their hands, and launched an indomitable momentum to attack the camp of the Ministry of Justice. The skeleton warriors continued to rise from the snow.
Although Xie Liuyun and Luodongcheng were used to the dangerous scenes, they were moved at this time. Looking around, they had fallen into layers of skeleton army, and the total strength of the other party should have exceeded 3,000.
Luo Dongcheng frowned. He could conclude that there must be a corpse-driven man behind this skeleton army. If you want to break the opponent's offensive, you must first find the corpse-driven man to eliminate it. He said loudly: "Liuyun, you can keep here, I will search for the corpse-driven man!"
Xie Liuyun nodded: "I will help you."
The defense circle formed by the warriors cracked a gap. Luo Dongcheng rushed towards the enemy camp like a golden lightning, looking at the weakest link of the opponent. The man and the gun were united, like a golden tornado rushing into the opponent's team. Dozens of white bones were split into pieces under the impact of the golden tornado, but more skeletons immediately surrounded him. Luo Dongcheng was in great responsibility and dared not fight. He jumped into the air and his body rose to the night sky more than twenty feet.
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh! Feather arrows shot into the air, and there were still many skeleton shooters lurking in this skeleton army. Luodongcheng swept across the night sky like a meteor, and got rid of the shooting of feather arrows at an astonishing speed.
Xie Liuyun hit the snow with both fists, and the snow was radiating towards the surroundings like waves. A wall of ice and snow was formed outside their formation. The number of skeletons was dozens of times that of them. It was unwise to take a head-on attack, so he could only take a defensive stance, striving to delay time and minimize casualties on his own as much as possible.
There were many demon-squeezers in the team that came this time, and they also helped Xie Liuyun continuously enhance the thickness and strength of the snow wall.
Feather arrows poured down from the sky like raindrops. The warriors raised their shields to block the rain of arrows above their heads. Xie Liuyun sighed in his heart. He was only concerned about the surrounding situation but was not wary of the underground. These skeletons should have existed under the snow surface. When they set up camp, the skeletons were not awakened. After the warriors went to sleep, a corpse-driven person awakened the skeletons and raided their camp.
A demon-squeezing master reported the casualties to Xie Liuyun. So far, fifty-three people have been killed. Xie Liuyun never thought that he would encounter such trouble one day after leaving Yongdu. His eyes turned to the snow slopes in the south. Qin Lang and his Xiyu Guard should have heard the movement here. I wonder if they would come to pick him up? Then he thought, there are at least 3,000 skeleton soldiers. Even if Qin Lang's group of people came over, they would just die in vain. They still rely on themselves in everything. Thinking of this, Xie Liuyun said loudly: "Brothers, cheer me up and be able to find the corpse-driver. It won't take long to find the corpse-driver, and everyone will be fine!"
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, his whole person seemed to be in a state of meditation, his eyes rolled upwards, and under the snow light, his eyes turned white like a dead fish. His spiritual sense quickly became in touch with the iron-backed Cang Falcon in the air. He used the sharp eyes of the iron-backed Cang Falcon to look down at the snow field below, searching for where the corpse-driven corpse was hiding, and the scenery within a radius of dozens of miles was visible.
Qin Lang immediately discovered the change below, and he woke everyone up. Chen Hutu looked up and said in surprise: "The army of skeletons!"
Gu Xiefei said: "This is another set." The reason why he said it again is that he and Qin Lang and Zhao Changqing had experienced a arduous battle against the walking zombies in Chiyang's cemetery.
Wang Houting said: "Doesn't help?"
Qin Lang decisively said: "Help!"
Gu Xiefei said: "No hurry, there must be a corpse-driver behind this scene, and maybe more than one person will be manipulated."
Qin Lang knew the danger of this kind of battle. They came out to carry out the mission this time and did not want any casualties. He said to several people: "Everyone is divided into two groups. Lao Gu and I will help to rescue him. Brother Chen, you and Brother Houting will take your brothers to find the corpse-driver."
Chen Hutu said, "Brother Gu and I change!"
Qin Lang nodded. Gu Xie was not more suitable when it comes to finding the corpse-driver, after all, he knew how to search the soul and trace the origin.
He and Chen Hutu rolled over and rode their horses toward the battlefield. With their amazing speed, they had arrived at the edge of the battlefield in an instant. Before they could get closer, hundreds of skeletons rushed towards them with weapons. Qin Lang shook his left hand, and a blue light and shadow flew out of his palm. Qin Lang took the lead in awakening Sang Sangen's battle soul.
When the enemy is facing, you must do your best.
Sang Sangen's battle spirit turned into a blue light and shadow and rushed into the array of white bone skeletons. It was like entering a no-man's realm. Everything was invincible. The broken bones flew around. As the skeleton was disintegrated, the blue soul power turned into light spots and was absorbed by Sang Sangen's battle spirit. No energy would last forever. Even the war spirit as powerful as Sang Sangen will lose its soul power over time, so it must absorb soul power every once in a while to ensure the stability of the spirit body. Today, he has gained a lot.
Chen Hutu rode his horse and rushed towards the skeleton knight on the left. The knight held a green dragon crescent sword in his hand, with white bones and a messy hair like straw left behind his head. With a wave of the big sword, a red soul blade rushed straight to Chen Hutu's head.
Chen Hutu raised his shield with his left hand. When his power was pouring into it, the dark iron shield emitted a blue light. The soul blade hit the iron shield and the green light suddenly surged. Chen Hutu relied on the impact of the mount and had already intertwined with the head of the skeleton knight. The tail of the shield hit the skeleton knight's head. A shield smashed the skeleton knight's head open, snatched the Qinglong Yanyue Knife in its hand, and slashed the shoulder of the skeleton knight on the right with a backhand, splitting the knight in half. The Yanyue Knife casts no stop and goes straight to the neck of the bone horse, cutting the cervical spine of the bone horse. The headless bone horse continues to rush forward and falls on the snow and bone bone scatters all over the ground.
Qin Lang condensed his soul power with his left hand and pointed at the skeleton surrounding him. When Qin Lang first came to this world, he accidentally activated the magic of transforming bones into soldiers. Now he has integrated the white bone pen Shenming into his body, and is always receiving the nourishment of his bloodline. He has mastered most of the seven attacks and four defenses, not to mention Shenming’s most basic skill, transforming bones into soldiers.
Where the blue light pointed to, the skeleton warrior immediately took Qin Lang as his master, changed his position to guard Qin Lang, and launched a counterattack against other skeleton warriors.
Chen Hutu was strong and invincible to enter the skeleton camp. Sang Sangen's soul was even more elusive. This battle tonight became an excellent opportunity for him to replenish his soul power.
The group of skeleton warriors who were originally besieged by the skeleton army were originally carrying out defensive counterattacks. When they saw reinforcements coming, they were all full of fighting spirit and launched a full-scale counterattack under the command of Xie Liuyun. Many people soon witnessed an incredible scene. More than a hundred skeleton warriors launched a counterattack under the leadership of Qin Lang, and more and more skeletons joined Qin Lang's team.
Xie Liuyun's first reaction was that Qin Lang also understood the way to control corpses, and this kid was a soul cultivator.
Although Chen Hutu was brave enough, his combat efficiency was still much worse than Qin Lang. He fought alone and Qin Lang fought collectively. At this time, Qin Lang had successfully caused more than 200 skeleton warriors to turn against each other, and the number was still increasing. It would not take long for the situation to reverse.
Qin Lang's sword was not unsheathed, and he kept turning his bones into soldiers with his left index finger. Just as he became more and more brave, a familiar voice suddenly came from his ears: "Stop, let them all stop!"
Qin Lang was stunned. The voice was clearly made by Yan Ruyu. Since Dabaoen Temple was injured, Yan Ruyu has not appeared for a long time.
Qin Lang said: "But..." Did he want to say that we stopped and wait for these skeletons to massacre?
Yan Ruyu's voice sounded again: "I'll solve it." The voice gradually faded away.
Not long after, a sad and sad sound of flute suddenly came from the night sky. With the sound of flute, all the white bones and skeletons stopped attacking at the same time.
Xie Liuyun seized this opportunity and ordered his subordinates to fight back with all their might, but heard Qin Lang shouting: "Stop it all!"
Chen Hutu used his shield to smash a skeleton knight down from the bone horse and stopped to continue attacking because all the bone skeletons stopped attacking.
Xie Liuyun also noticed this change and ordered his subordinates to stop attacking. The skeleton warriors were next to them, as if they had been used to immobilize the technique of standing motion motion at the same time.
The sound of the flute sobbed, like crying and complaining, and the skeletons followed the sound of the flute and walked into the cedar forest in the west.
Xie Liuyun made a gesture, saying that there was no need to pursue.
Chen Hutu urged his horse to come to Qin Lang's side. Before he arrived, Qin Lang had already taken back Sang Sangen's battle spirit.
Chen Hutu said, "Have you heard the sound of the flute?"
Qin Lang nodded: "They are leaving, there is no need for us to cause trouble again."
Xie Liuyun asked his men to clean up the bodies of his companions, and he walked towards Qin Lang and Chen Hutu.
Qin Lang and the others turned over and dismounted.
Xie Liuyun clasped his fists and said, "Thank you for your adventure and rushing for help."
Qin Lang said: "It's all friends, so it's time to help."
At this time, Gu Xiefei and others who went to find the corpse driver returned one after another, but all returned without success and did not find any clues about the corpse driver.
Xie Liuyun looked at Qin Lang. He still remembered that Qin Lang was the first to call for a stop. Could it be that Qin Lang had already known that the White Bone Skeleton would stop attacking and leave? Although this man was young, his strength was extremely strong. In the fierce battle just now, he could actually control the White Bone, proving that he had the strength to transform bones into soldiers.
Xie Liuyun said: "It turns out that Commander Qin is a master of soul cultivating."
Luo Dongcheng's cold voice sounded from the side: "General Qin is not unfamiliar with such a scene. He retreated from the siege of the walking zombies in Chiyang Cemetery."
Qin Lang smiled slightly, and didn't want to explain to them, so he said to Gu Xiefei: "Brother Gu, have you found a corpse-driver?"
Gu Xiefei shook his head and said, "The guards of Luo can't even be found, where can we find them?"
Xie Liuyun smiled and said, "It's all my own family. Thank you just now." They died in total 55 people and injured twelve people in this battle. No one in Qin Lang's side was injured. And thanks to their help, they were able to rescue the situation. They also came out to pursue them. In comparison, their face was more than a little bit, and their lives were very bad. The tragic death of fifty-five brothers really made them heartbroken.
Xie Liuyun and Luo Dongcheng discussed for a while and decided to bury the dead brother's body on the spot.
Since both sides have met, there is no need to continue hiding. Qin Lang and his party camped nearby to rest. Xie Liuyun's side only needed a lot of time to bury the dead and treat the injured.
This New Year's night is destined to be quiet, and it doesn't snow even in Yong. Long Xixi has been restless after returning home from Dabaoen Temple. He originally wanted to go to Babu Academy to visit Lu Buyao. After all, Qin Lang said that if he encounters any trouble, he would ask him for advice. However, after thinking about it, he still gave up the idea of going. From the performance of his father during the day, it can be seen that he had accepted his fate.
It’s not that Long Xixi doesn’t understand the relationship between his father and Lu Buyao. Lu Buyao’s previous withdrawal from politics also caused the reason for his disheartenedness with his father.
When he was about to rest, he called Cui'er twice, but no one answered. Long Xixi was a little surprised. He left the room and walked down the stairs, but saw a body hanging on the beam of the hall. Looking closely, it was Cui'er.
Cui'er disheveled her hair, her face was pale, her tongue spitting out a long hair, and she was already dead.
Long Xixi was shocked. Someone actually dared to kill people in Jinyuan. This person was not only bold but also unfathomable. He cut off the rope that tied Cui'er's neck. Her limbs were not stiff yet, and her body still had warmth. It should not be long before she died. In other words, when she was in the room, the other party sneaked into the small building and killed Cui'er.
Long Xixi's heart sank. As soon as Qin Lang left, the killer came quietly. She suddenly realized that someone might have deliberately arranged Qin Lang's departure from Yongdu this time.
Opening the door, a cold wind blew up Long Xixi's clothes. She was like a graceful green lotus in the cold wind, and her cold and clear eyes were thrown towards the wooden boat in the yard. On the wooden boat that represents the most beautiful memories of her and Qin Lang, there was a man in black robe. He was tall and thin, wearing a bronze mask, and his strange eyes looked down at Long Xixi from a high place.
Long Xixi remained calm in the face of danger: "Who are you?"
"Kill your person!"
"Why kill me?"
"Qin Lang killed my people, so I want him to pay his blood debts and blood!
Long Xixi nodded and said softly: "Who are you? I, Long Xixi, never kill the unknown rat."
"Murong's disease bone!"
Long Xixi felt inexplicable panic deep in his heart. Murong Binggu was the leader of the Banyue Sect. He was a master of the same level as his master Li Qingshui and also reached the sixth-grade master level. In front of this person, he would not have any chance of winning.
