Chapter 480: Into the Northwest
Wind rift valley, located in the south of Xuzhou City at the mouth of a canyon, from this enter, is the endless Xuzhou Plain, this pass is the gateway of Xuzhou City, when the Jinting King Tent attacked this place, it really suffered a lot, but it is precisely because it occupies here, Xuzhou City can finally fall under the iron hooves of the royal court.
On both sides of the valley are craggy and steep cliffs, and from a high place, it looks like it has been chopped out, and there are still mutilated corpses everywhere, and a group of crows and wild dogs are tearing at the flesh of those limbs, and they are crying happily from time to time.
A sword light suddenly shot out from the high mouth, like an arrow, and a sword pierced the body of a wild dog who was dragging the corpse's thigh, and suddenly let out a wail and turned into two halves.
As if feeling the fierce aura of murderous intent, wild dogs and crows jumped up and down, and when the wind-like wolf bรจi fled, two figures stepped out of the air.
"It's a miserable place. A strong man with a big sword on his back looked at the scene in the canyon with a frown, as if he could imagine the tragic battle situation at that time.
"A lot of people died!" The one standing in front of the big man was a young man with a face like jade, but what was revealed on that face at this time was as cold as a sword's fortitude.
"Second Senior Brother, do you want to go to Xuzhou City again?" The big man stared at the end of the canyon, and the shadow of a majestic city could be faintly seen.
"Uncle Qingxuan, let you do whatever you want, don't worry about the excess!" The young man's eyes also looked into the distance and said with a calm face.
The strong man pursed his lips, as if he didn't care, then looked behind him, and said to himself: "I heard from Senior Brother, the junior brother is now in control of the Black Bird Camp, and I don't know if he will come." โ
The young man's brows furrowed even tighter, especially after hearing the name of this "little junior brother", he seemed to think of something, and he didn't say a word for a long time, and then turned to leave.
The strong man glanced into the distance again, muttered a few words that only he could hear, and quickly followed the figure of the young man, flying in the direction he came.
Not long after the two of them left, an inexplicable gust of wind suddenly rolled up in the quiet wind rift valley, and I saw a mutilated corpse, with a blue face, and suddenly moved its eyelids.
Immediately after that, the corpse shuddered, slowly opened its eyes, and there seemed to be a vague shadow in the gray pupils, and on the corners of the mouth full of carrion, there was a meaningful sneer.
The northwest is far away, and it is also very desolate, you can look down from the sky, and the desolate loess wind and sand, when it slowly unfolds in the field of vision, it is endless at a glance, and it is as magnificent as the sea.
Slowly lowering his figure on a low slope, Xu Lin looked into the distance, and felt it subtly for a while, it has been more than a month since he went deep into the northwest wilderness, but there was no shock on this road, and he didn't meet a single demon sect alien, and it was a little unbelievable.
Xu Lin didn't know much about the demon lord's personality, but judging from the calculations in the Langya Secret Realm, at least at the beginning, every cultivator who entered the Langya Secret Realm was more or less difficult to escape the actual control of the demon lord, how could such a calculating person make the door to the northwest wide open?
Could it be that his master has really reached the point where he can let the demon master concentrate on dealing with it?
Xu Lin thought in disbelief, not long ago, according to the secret order given to him by Qinghong Zhenren, Qingyu Zhenren sneaked into the northwest alone, and the specific task to be carried out by Qinghong Zhenren did not clearly inform Xu Lin, but just asked him to go to the designated place to answer.
Xu Lin, who had been silent for a long time, looked at the yellow sand in the distance, calculating the time when it should be time, but he still didn't see the figure of Qingyu Zhenren, so there must be a change.
With a greeting, from the dark shadow behind him, a person suddenly floated out, it was the middle-aged Taoist priest who embarrassed Mingluan that day, Xu Lin opened his mouth without looking back: "You go and investigate!"
The middle-aged Taoist silently bowed to Xu Lin's back, and the figure disappeared in an instant, and Xu Lin waved behind him, and a bald monk with a murderous face suddenly appeared, Xu Lin said lightly: "Arrange it, rest here." โ
The bald monk replied: "Yes!" Then he turned around to arrange it, Xu Lin stood in place, silently looking at the vast world, stretched out his hand and involuntarily stroked a black silk bag around his waist, and murmured: "If you are still alive, presumably this mission will not have anything to do with the old man Qingyu." โ
Not to mention Xu Lin's side, just say that the middle-aged Taoist who received Xu Lin's order, this humane is called Eagle Seal, the best at raising all kinds of strange beasts, tricky and vicious, in the early years in the cultivation world, he can also be regarded as the number one person, but unfortunately in a battle with Kunlun in a dispute over the treasure, he was unfortunately captured, and since then he has lived a life of captivity without people and ghosts.
This time, it was rare for Xu Lin to be selected to enter the black bird camp, and it could be regarded as a breakthrough, but as soon as he thought of Xu Lin, the top boss, the heart of the Eagle Seal Dao people felt a chill for no reason, especially on the pale face like a ghost, when there was a look that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, the Eagle Seal Dao people couldn't help but stand on end.
I always feel that this is not a normal person, and I don't seem to be interested in anything, but I know everything, I want to use my natal Gu several times to dissolve the prohibition that I left in my body, and every time my natal Gu encounters that wonderful light group, the kind of oppression and pain like ten thousand souls always make the Eagle Seal Dao people feel that they are not facing a cultivator, but the Nine Shadows Yama, I believe that in the Black Bird Camp, not only do they have this feeling, many people choose to give up and be obedient like themselves.
While thinking about it in his mind, after traveling for a period of time, it was getting late, and the Eagle Seal Daoist lowered his figure, and remained silent for a while, sensing the surroundings, and seeing that there was no strange fluctuating breath, he reached out from his storage bag and took out a cyan jade slip, and then blew on it, a camouflage butterfly suddenly flew out of the jade slip, and around its body, the figure of the Eagle Seal Daoist disappeared into the air and became a confused breath, And flew away into the distance.
After flying for a while, the Eagle Seal Daoist calculated the time and direction by himself, kept his heart in mind, and suddenly, he suddenly found that the front was flickering by a burst of ghostly light, but it was different from the sea of stars in the sky, but a phosphorescent light like a ghost fire, the Eagle Seal Daoist frowned, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, as if he had scolded something, and then lifted his body again, and floated forward cautiously.
When passing through the bursts of phosphorus fire, the Eagle Seal Dao people knew that it was a ghost fire because they were well-informed in their early years, and in each group of phosphorescent green candles, there was a wild ghost soul, which seemed to be immovable, but in fact it was like the divine consciousness of a cultivator. Each candle flame will specifically sense a direction, for the rashness of the living, it is definitely a taboo, because the ghost is yin, the living is yang, if you recklessly step into this area, you will inevitably be perceived by the ghost cultivator in the candle, that is not very good.
But the more he walked in, the more frightened the Eagle Seal Dao man became, because he suddenly found that this was not as simple as a few ghost candles, as if every direction, no matter how the Eagle Seal Dao people walked, within the viewing angle, one or two ghost candles would be reflected, and it seemed to be the direction of the stars in the sky.
Licking his lips that were a little dry, after walking a few laps, the Eagle Seal Daoist looked at the soil under his feet, and was stunned for a while, and couldn't help but curse in his heart, and then walked a few more laps, but then his face changed, why did he walk back to the same place?
Look at the ghost candles burning around, the flame is green and reflects a miserable white face, as if staring at himself, the Eagle Seal Dao people can't help but stiffen, and quickly took out a jade Jane, crushed it hard, a red beetle, and jumped out, the Eagle Seal Dao people hurriedly recited a spell, the beetle turned on the ground, and hurriedly crawled to a direction, and the Eagle Seal Dao people didn't want to follow.
Turning around, the Eagle Seal Dao people followed the red beetle in front of them for a long time, and finally walked out of the range reflected by this ghost fire, but the feeling of being like a man's back could not be driven away.
Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, the Eagle Seal Dao saw that this place was exactly where he came, and he was glad in his heart, fortunately there was this memory beetle, otherwise he would have to be planted here this time, and he would not stay long, so he hurriedly got up, flew into the air, and flew back towards Xu Lin's location.
