The city wall on the southern border was built with the flesh and blood of the human race, and there are loyal souls buried under every inch of land here.
The emperor of Jingdu may be looking at the singing and dancing, the yushu and silver flowers, the young masters of Xianhuacheng may be enjoying the autumn moon together, the teahouses in Ci'an City are still full, and the storytellers are full of prosperity and well-being.
No one saw that the ancient border city covered by the huge barrier was dying.
Not to mention that no one would know that there is actually a group of idiots here who are trying to use their mortal bodies to fight against the countless demon army of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
They wore the lowest thorn armor, and they didn't even have any warm clothes. They left their wives and children to come here to serve the country, but they were never cared about. They are lazy all day long, smoking and fighting, because in this "safe and prosperous age", they are no longer needed, and they are even happy about it.
But now, they resolutely stood at the forefront of the human race, using their bones to pile up an unstable barrier.
They are willing to raise their arms against countless enemies, because behind them is a big mirror, and where they stand is their big mirror!
It only needs to persist for thirty days, and the human race will be saved. But these thirty days are really dark, so dark that you can't see the end at all.
"It can't be done, the intestines have been eaten up, it's hopeless." Military doctor Liu Shu wiped his sweat, and put the white cloth over the corpse's head.
The few soldiers who brought the wounded bowed silently to the corpse, and then left silently. It was as if no one had been in the military doctor's tent, and it was lifeless.
Liu Shu went to the corner and added some oil to the only lamp in the tent.
More than half a month ago, the banshee with a shocking appearance came to the city with a million demon soldiers. Since that day, there has been no sunrise and sunset in Jiuming City, and this dark sky surrounded by demon clouds has always been maintained.
Liu Shu has always been very frugal with oil, because he knows that if the light cannot be guaranteed within 30 days, it must be a disaster for the defenders.
These monsters can see in the dark, but the defenders can't. Moreover, the number of monsters is huge, and they can take turns to fight non-stop, so the city defenders must also ensure their strength at all times.
Too many people have died in the past few days, and most of them have incomplete bodies. He dealt with minor injuries, and those whose heads had been bitten off basically didn't need to look for him. In addition to the wounded, many crazy soldiers were also sent to him.
"It's good to be crazy, it's good to be crazy, you don't have to see these corpses every day, and you don't have to worry about this monster breaking the city..." Liu Shu said haggardly to himself. He looked completely thin, his hair fell out one after another, and his sallow face was always full of anxiety and panic.
"If you're crazy, there won't even be a cure in Jiuming City!" Xie Yao limped in and said loudly.
Liu Shu raised his eyes to look at him, thinking that this young man has changed the most among all the people. He remembered that when Xie Yao first came here, he just took advantage of his powerful family and was related to the commander. He never participated in drills, and he never wore armor.
Now, with a scruffy beard, how could he still see that handsome face clearly. He has a straightforward and pure personality, and he is willing to charge forward. Now he is getting along well with those soldiers in the army. There is also the matter of his seeking immortality, and now everyone knows it without telling him, but he kills the most monsters with thunder every day.
"What's wrong with your leg? If you were bitten by a monster, don't seek medical treatment from me. You can dig a hole yourself and die slowly!" Liu Shu compared one after another, thinking in his heart that a hero will come out of troubled times. This kid may not be easy in the future. Of course, the premise is that he has to survive the remaining half month.
"No, no, I was tripped by a catapult. Besides, it doesn't matter if I was bitten, not every monster is poisonous!" Xie Yao waved his hands and sat down on the ground.
Liu Shu took the medicine, threw it to him directly, then sat down on his buttocks, and said to him face to face: "How many times have you tripped over that catapult? You can take care of yourself, or you will have to come here next time." Wrap that white cloth!"
"Can you ask the commander to move that thing to a different position? Every time I get stuck in that position and secretly use thunder to kill monsters, I get tripped..." Xie Yao twisted for a long time but failed to get the cover off.
"Fuck! The commander has been sleepless for seven days, how dare you trouble him with this matter?" Liu Shu spat at him, took the medicine bottle with his hands, and broke the lid with a force, "This medicine bottle is It's so open! You screw up!"
"Oh..." Xie Yao took the bottle awkwardly, suddenly feeling a little depressed, "Tell me, when will this ghostly day be the end of it?"
Liu Shu looked at the young son and didn't know how to answer.
Maybe it will be over in the next moment, maybe it will never be over. There was no sunrise and sunset, and they couldn't even count the days, so every minute and every second passed in such a chaotic manner, but no one knew when the thirty-day period would arrive.
If they knew the date, they might still have a goal to stick to. But what if you don't know the change of day and night? In front of the eyes, monsters slaughtered and devoured people, and compatriots were buried in the belly of monsters. Horrible things happened one after another, and they were magnified over and over again by the unclear time.
Without a clear goal, they seem to be sailing in the vast ocean, maybe they will land in the next moment, and it is impossible to land.
Such a day is really hopeless.
"It's okay." Xie Yao finally said when he saw that his expression was becoming more and more frightened.
"You see, I am still persisting, Commander Zhu is still persisting, so many soldiers are still persisting. As long as one of us is alive, there is no reason for Jiuming City to fall." Xie Yao wiped the medicine, Putting the bottle in his arms, he stood up with the gun in hand.
Xie Yao finally began to understand something.
It's not how to kill a monster with the least consumption, but a kind of responsibility.
He felt that since he was carrying such power, he naturally also carried the same responsibility.
He is willing to do something for the people behind him who live in the "peace and prosperity", even if he has not gained anything from those people.
There was a firm light in Xie Yao's eyes, and the lines of the Qing Emperor's Hundred Flowers Seal appeared on his forehead, and there were traces of dark purple lightning on the lines.
He wants to fight!
At this time, there was a young scholar at the north gate of Jiuming City, wearing a Su Niaoshuang fur, looking a little ruffian in a romantic way.
He raised his head to look at the monster cloud that covered the sun and the majestic enchantment, and frowned slightly: "There will be great chaos in the south... It seems that Yun Qing's words are true."
This person was Song Liyou who parted ways with Yun Qing and the others at Thirteen Obstacles. He stopped and stopped all the way, but he still had some distrust of Yun Qing in his heart.
Song Liyouzai looked at the enchantment carefully, and couldn't help but sneer: "I said why came down from the north to sing and dance, and there was no news. I thought it was Yun Qing who deceived me, but I didn't expect it to be senior Da Neng shot to cover up the secret of the sky... "
"This enchantment seems to block the monster energy that goes straight to the sky, but in fact it also completely isolates Jiuming City from the outside world. Humanity is not prepared at all this time. I am afraid that I will be cheated .”
"Boy, are you secretly scolding me in your heart?" An old voice suddenly appeared in front of Song Liyou.
This person appeared out of nowhere, he ignored the barrier as nothing, and didn't see him doing anything, so he walked out so ordinaryly.
"I want to worship you as my teacher." Song Liyou almost blurted out when he saw this face.
Isn't this the old man Yun Qing asked him to find? Listening to his words, it seems that he heard what he was thinking from a long distance away, and... was he actually the one who set up this barrier that blocked countless monster races in the 100,000 mountains and covered the heavenly altar for an unknown period of time
Uncle Cha nodded, but he didn't realize that he spoke abruptly: "What do you want to learn? You should have entered Taoism with the stars and stars in the sky, and you have the power of vows on your body, so it must be a branch of humanity. Oh, you also have Qingdi Feng in you. Chunyin, it is not impossible to cultivate the immortal way so warm and nourish the vitality."
Song Liyou remembered what Yun Qing said, gritted his teeth, and said to the old man: "I hope Master will smash the foundation for me and end the cause and effect. I am willing to rebuild the ghost way."
Uncle Cha frowned when he heard his words: "She taught you these words?"
Song Liyou understood that "she" was undoubtedly Yun Qing, so she nodded.
Uncle Cha closed his eyes, calculated in his hands for a while, and then said: "Would you like to enter my Fengdu City?"
Song Li said worriedly, it really is the only orthodox inheritance of ghosts in the world, Fengdu City.
"willing."
"Then I'll send you the record of the end of the ghost." Uncle Cha looked to the north with his cloudy eyes, and made some calculations again.
Song Liyou felt that this orthodox inheritance was too simple, and there was always a feeling of unreliability.
"Don't think that the inheritance in my hand is so easy to hold." Old Uncle Cha chuckled, and the movements in his hands never stopped, "Smashing the foundation, eliminating cause and effect, and comprehending the nether world, if you can get rid of it before this barrier dissipates, If you can do this, you are my direct disciple."
"When will this enchantment dissipate?" Song Li thought worriedly, if it dissipated in the next second, then his work would not be in vain, so he must be sure.
"Ten days later, before that you have to stay with me in Jiuming City." Uncle Cha stretched out his finger, and a gap of one person's size opened in the barrier, "Follow me."
Song Liyou walked on the desolate streets, feeling the ominous dead air enveloped the city.
"The monster clan will break through here in ten days or so." Uncle Cha walked without any ups and downs, and his whole body seemed to be floating in the void. Song Liyou noticed that his right hand was trembling slightly.
It's not just as simple as breaking through Jiuming City. The secret of the sky is covered, and no one knows that the monster race is approaching the border of the human race. When they covertly take down the Jiuming City, once the barrier dissipates, they can naturally drive straight in from the unsuspecting Dajing South.
"You...cough cough, what is the meaning of Master's formation of this enchantment?" Song Liyou almost didn't change his words.
Uncle Cha smiled more sinisterly: "I have made an appointment with the little fox from Shiwan Dashan. If they fail to break through Jiuming City under my enchantment in 30 days, my Fengdu City will no longer intervene in the battle between Shiwan Dashan and Lutian Temple." fight."
Song Liyou thought about the connection between his words. Since the old man has determined that the Yaozu can break through here within 30 days, does he mean to intervene in the dispute between Shiwan Dashan and Lutian Temple by making such an agreement
"Do you know where Fengdu City is?" Old Uncle Cha asked suddenly.
Song Liyou was dumbfounded. Although Fengdu City is orthodox, it is not listed as a holy site precisely because no one knows where it is.
"Fengdu City is home..." Uncle Cha stopped and said to Song Liyou.
"All living beings must die, and all will return to my Fengdu City after death."
Song Li was startled in horror, he vaguely understood the meaning of these words, wherever there were dead people, they were all located in Fengdu City.
In other words, Fengdu City is everywhere.
