Chapter 364: The Final Battle (4)
"How's the situation?" Seeing Liang Dong open his eyes, the Wuhua monk hurried over and asked in a low voice.
"Everything was as expected. Liang Dong took a light breath and said in a deep voice: "We didn't gain much from attacking this hand with smoke yesterday, and it should be Ruiz who peeked at us that night, and he saw that someone kept carrying firewood, so he naturally wanted to get our plan." But fortunately, our real plan is not to use the smoke to take their lives. ”
"Hmm!" Wuhua Monk nodded slightly, they had expected nothing to gain yesterday, but fortunately they did have other plans, otherwise they would have to be disappointed if they really wanted to put their minds on this.
After sorting out her thoughts a little, Wuhua then asked, "What's going on inside now?"
Liang Dong frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice: "Now Ruiz is directing his men to take refuge in the high places in the underground palace, and at the same time looking for people to find cracks in the ground, trying to guide the water flooded into them into the cracks in the ground. ”
"I knew that the belly of the mountain would not be integrated, and I didn't want to think that there would really be cracks, otherwise if I kept watering it with the water of this river, I would force them all out one day. ”
"Time doesn't allow!" A light smile appeared on Liang Dong's face, and he said in a low voice: "At least that emperor master will not allow us to act so slowly, An Yunshan will not die for a day, and the emperor will not be at ease for a day." Maybe one couldn't help it that day, so he drove the expedition himself. Besides, if we really have to drag it out, and when the injuries of those people in the Shenhou Mansion heal, is there still a chance for us to earn merit points?"
Hearing Liang Dong say this, Monk Wuhua's face couldn't help but sink. Now in the entire team, Liang has two seventh-order powerhouses on his hand, Sun Xiuqing also has one in his hand, and the rest of the others can almost be said to have no gains, at this time, let others intervene, and the few remaining of them may not have a chance to gain any merit points, even if they win this trip, they will not have much of a reward.
Qing Yu didn't actually want his team members to have any losses, and he didn't care very much about the merit points rewarded by the gods and demons space, although he was born in Kunlun and had a lot of wealth, he couldn't say that he didn't lack anything, but the demand for these foreign things was much less.
In the entire team, people like him think like this, in addition to himself and Su Zhi, Su Zhi was born with a transparent sword heart, and there is nothing else in her eyes except her own sword, she doesn't care too much about whether she can get more merit points, what she needs is more of a life-and-death confrontation with different opponents, and sharpening her swordsmanship, this is what she really wants.
However, for Wuhua Monk and Zhang Jiyu, their position in their own sect is not very stable, and their desire for merit points is very strong.
After informing Qing Yu of the information obtained by Liang Dong, the Wuhua monk was also like Liang Dong, sitting cross-legged on the mountainside, closing his eyes and concentrating. What he said to Liang Dong just now made Wuhua's mind fluctuate a little, tomorrow is a battle of life and death, and he must ensure that everything is in the best condition.
With the continuous infusion of water, there were suddenly bursts of roars and panicked shouts in the dungeon, not to mention Liang Dong, even the flowerless monk could hear it clearly.
The two knew in their hearts that it was the sound of the giant crocodile and the viper inside starting to attack the guards in the crypt, which they had expected. Liang Dong and Monk Wuhua glanced at each other, and their eyes showed a trace of unbearability.
In fact, neither Liang Dong nor Monk Wuhua wanted to see too many casualties in the underground palace, but this matter did not depend on them, it was Deng Yong who led this matter, and they could not do anything.
Liang Dong sighed softly and said in a low voice, "It's a pity!"
The flowerless monk even clasped his hands together, and kept reciting the scriptures of the past in his mouth, with a solemn expression.
Seeing the Wuhua monk doing this, Liang Dong's heart moved, he felt that he also needed to learn some methods to appease the soul, and this kind of thing was also the mainstream in Taoist spells. Although in the real world, the empire does not advocate burial, but the empire has a huge population base, plus endless monsters and ghosts in the depths of the mountains, and there are many such things. Especially since they are likely to encounter the likes of the Demon Sect in the future, these things are still well prepared.
The action of pouring water into the dungeon continued for a whole day, and slowly stopped when it was getting dark. After dark, all the wagons were driven to the banks of the Bianhe River.
On this day, the sergeants who stayed outside the dungeon, except for half of them guarding the exit of the dungeon, the other half went into the mountains and forests to cut firewood, and it was obvious that Liang Dong and they were interested in doing what they did yesterday again tomorrow. Especially today, most of the people who survived in the dungeon have crowded into a relatively high place in the dungeon, and tomorrow the fire and smoke will play a greater role.
This is best known to Ruiz, who is standing at the top of the mountain in the night. With his own Twisted Realm Leaping Technique, every time he opened a spatial portal, the second time he opened it would have to wait until a day later. Therefore, every night before midnight, Ruiz appeared outside the dungeon palace with the Twisting Technique of the Realm, carefully probing the plan of action of Qing Yu and the others.
Seeing the guards patrolling the mountain non-stop, as well as the sergeants who kept cutting down trees between the mountains and forests, and a water wheel outside the underground palace, Ruiz really couldn't guess Qingyu's plan for the next day, today's water battle has completely destroyed the morale of the people inside. If it weren't for the last killer move, Ruiz would have run away with his brothers a long time ago!
After exploring outside the dungeon, Ruiz cautiously tried to go to the town a few miles away to investigate, but before he could get close to the town, Liang Dong and Su Zhi, who were standing at the entrance of the town, made him pause.
Ruiz was sure he could kill the two of them on his own, but he wasn't sure he wouldn't alarm the others. If he can't kill the two men before the others arrive, then Ruiz himself risks being besieged. What's even more dangerous is that he doesn't have reinforcements behind him, and Ruiz has run out of Warp Realm Leaping Technique today, so now is definitely not the time for him to act rashly.
Finally, after a careful probing, Ruiz quietly retreated.
Liang Dong and Su Zhi didn't notice Ruiz's arrival at all, firstly, Ruiz was indeed far away enough, and secondly, Ruiz was always very cautious to hide the traces and figures of his actions, so even if Liang Dong had a tailwind, for an almost eighth-order acquired master like Ruiz, once they reined in their traces a little, Liang Dong would not be able to find it at all.
At this moment, Liang Dong was concentrating on asking Su Zhi for the essence of swordsmanship, although Longmen Academy had a rule that the classics in the Scripture Pavilion should not be taught to others privately, but Liang Dong was just taking out a certain style of swordsmanship to ask Su Zhi for advice, so that basically the rules of the academy would not be triggered.
Su Zhi's attainments in swordsmanship are very deep, although Liang Dong only took out a move and a half to ask her for advice, but she was able to gently point out the shortcomings and omissions of Liang Dong's swordsmanship. This night, Liang Dong's harvest was not small.
The sky is getting brighter, Liang Dong got up from the courtyard early, absorbing the purple qi of the early sun, last night he and Su Zhi were just on duty in the first half of the night, and after Sun Xiuqing and Zhang Jiyu came to take over, Liang Dong went back to rest.
For those of them who are not weak in cultivation, although it is said that most of them can recover with a little meditation and playing, regardless of their physical strength or spirit, they still need sleep to recover the mental energy consumed every day, so everyone tries to sleep for a while every day.
You must know that cultivation has always been an extremely exhausting thing. Liang Dong's cultivation is still low now, even if he makes a mistake on the cultivation path, he can adjust it in time, it is nothing more than a cost. But once they have reached a high level of cultivation, if they are not careful, their cultivation will make mistakes, and at that time, a mistake may kill them.
Today is the day when Qing Yu set up a total of launches, so Liang Dong brought all the things that should be brought. In order to prevent accidents and never return, Liang Dong also wrote a letter to Caifei, asking her to help transfer the letter to Butterfly if he didn't come back alive this time.
The people who entered the underground palace today were divided into several batches before and after, and there were not many people who went in the first time, Liang Dong, Su Zhi, Wuhua monk and Qingyu Daoist, they took five elite soldiers to the first group. They are responsible for opening a safe passage into the Anjia Underground Palace.
The second trip was slightly more manpowered, Ji Yaohua, Zhang Jiyu, Sun Xiuqing and Zhou Wan'er went to the third batch, in addition to the four of them, there were five elite hunters and five elite sergeants. Once the people in front of them are wiped out by an accident, it will be up to them to complete the main task!
The third group had the largest number of people, and Deng Yong led the remaining six doors and the sergeants of the brigade to walk at the end, clearing all the hostile forces involved on the road and completely cleaning up the entire underground palace.
