Chapter 50: Dark clouds overwhelm the city

Views:

"Li Jinglong told you not to go out." Qin Xuan said as she was peeling a basket of edamame outside the hall.

Hong Jun frowned and said, "How is it possible? Where did they go? Where is Zhao Zilong?"

Hong Jun grabbed the carp demon and wrapped it up wetly. The carp demon was taken aback and asked, "Where are you going?"

Hong Jun arrived in the backyard, got on his horse, and looked around blankly.

Qin Xuan put on her bow and arrows, changed into a leather jacket, and came out and said, "Go south, under Qilian Mountain, Wushan Town! Many people have gone today, even the general!"

"you… "

Qin Xuan said: "My father always rushes forward regardless of his life, I will accompany you."

Hong Jun took Qin Xuan with him, Qin Xuan showed the way, and the two rushed to the outside of Liangzhou City. At the gate of the city, Kuiye received a letter saying that Zhang Hao was counting troops, and Qin Xuan angrily said, "Are you leaving the city now?!"

Hong Jun hurriedly signaled Qin Xuan to keep quiet, and don't cause trouble at this time, but Qin Xuan cared about her father's safety, but forgot about it. Zhang Hao was shocked when he saw Hong Jun who was on the horse.

"It's him!" Zhang Hao shouted, "Catch him! Quick! Go to someone and inform the old general!"

Many soldiers also recognized Hong Jun, and the soldiers came to close the city gate one after another. Seeing that the situation was not good, Hong Jun hurriedly shouted: "Hurry up! I'm rushing!"

Qin Xuan tightly grasped Hongjun, Hongjun controlled the reins with his left hand, and the flying knife with his right hand, and swung the knife towards the city gate! The city gate was cut in half immediately and collapsed with a loud noise. Immediately afterwards, Hong Jun rode the horse and rushed out like an arrow.

"Catch me!" Ge Shuhan, wearing full armor and leading a large group of soldiers, roared, "How dare you destroy my city gate?! Where's Li Jinglong?! Tie me back to the prison!"

Therefore, Hong Jun's crime was aggravated. However, he didn't want to cause trouble on weekdays, but he was afraid of causing trouble to Li Jinglong. Now that his immediate boss has made such a big mess, who is afraid of you!

"I can't catch up!" Hong Jun turned his head and shouted, "Go back! You are so old!"

Ge Shuhan: "..."

Hong Jun has always been fearless, but Ge Shuhan was almost so angry by these words, he shouted: "Catch me up!"

The horse that Hong Jun was riding was very handsome. Although it was carrying two people, it was almost like a cavalry in heavy armor. As soon as he threw off his four hooves, he ran southward like a strong wind and disappeared without a trace.

At the same time, Li Jinglong and Qin Liang had just passed a small town called Guo Yuan, with nearly two hundred soldiers following behind them. Just before noon, the town was crowded with fleeing civilians, and this place was not far from Mount Wu. There are more than sixty miles.

Li Jinglong hurriedly dismounted and asked, "How is the situation in Wushan Town?"

The two towns of Wushan and Anshan were looted last night, exactly the same as the four cities outside the Great Wall.

The people cried and shouted, they all escaped from these two towns, Li Jinglong secretly thanked God when he heard the words, his head could be saved.

"What does the person who attacked your village look like?" Li Jinglong asked anxiously.

A reckless man shouted: "How do I know! I'm so blind! I can't see anything!"

Li Jinglong: "..."

"That..." Qin Liang said awkwardly, "Chang Shi, why don't we let go of our grievances and go to Wushan to have a look?"

Li Jinglong almost vomited blood from the reckless man's words, and suddenly the jackdaw flew across the sky, and let out a hoarse cry of horror.

Li Jinglong jumped onto the roof in a few steps and looked to the south.

Some people dragged their families and told Qin Liang and others how the wolf god appeared last night and saved their family. Many people also set up temporary altars in the village to worship the wolves who pity the common people in the mountains. god. Qin Liang didn't hear the truth, and shouted to the height: "Li Changshi, let's go now?!"

When the cold wind picked up suddenly, Li Jinglong jumped off the roof and said, "Retreat! All retreat! The people all hide in the cellar!"

Qin Liang said: "What?"

Li Jinglong said: "My nose is blocked, you can smell it, is there a smell in the wind?"

At this time, the south wind was blowing, and there was indeed a faint smell of corpses in the wind. Qin Liang's expression changed instantly, and he said in a deep voice, "Li Changshi, are they coming this way?"

Li Jinglong immediately asked the soldiers to set up defenses. He had trained in the Longwu Army for a long time, and he was very familiar with various fortifications. However, what Qin Liang brought was the militia in Liangzhou City, and Ge Shuhan had all the elite soldiers. These militiamen are only responsible for mediating disputes on weekdays, doing hard work, marching and fighting, but they can't do it.

"Prepare the brazier!" Li Jinglong shouted, "Every household, gather all the oil!"

The militiamen looked at each other, Qin Liang said decisively: "All listen to Li Changshi, hurry up!"

So all the people and soldiers in Guoyuan Town took action, and Li Jinglong asked, "When will the reinforcements arrive?"

Qin Liang replied: "Zhang Hao only started to recruit soldiers in the early morning, and I'm afraid there are still two or three hours left. Li Changshi, are you sure they will come here?"

Another flock of crows croaked by.

Li Jinglong originally wanted to say "very sure". After all, the crows flew by, and it was precisely because of the large-scale march that they disturbed the winter birds in the forest. However, considering what he said and the bad luck that didn't happen, it's better not to jump to conclusions so quickly it is good.

"Maybe..." Li Jinglong hesitated, "It's hard to say."

Qin Liang was shocked: "It's hard to say?!"

The surrounding soldiers all had expressions of "Are you kidding me?", and they put down their arrows one after another, thinking that you are not sure and let us guard here

It was cold and windy, and Guo Yuan didn't even have a brick wall, but there were many wooden fence walls tied together with wooden stakes around him, just to prevent the wolves from invading. There are two large wooden doors driven by wooden wheels.

Li Jinglong said: "Should we evacuate all the people to Liangzhou Prefecture?"

Qin Liang said earnestly: "Li Changshi, you are the only one who has fought against ghouls here. Today is also you..."

Qin Liang stared at Li Jinglong, and the meaning in his words was obvious. Li Jinglong understood what he hadn't said. In fact, Li Jinglong received an urgent report at five o'clock, and Li Jinglong made a decisive decision and asked Qin Liang to send troops to Wushan immediately.

Qin Liang disregarded his disobedience and sent troops without authorization, all because of what Li Jinglong said, Li Jinglong naturally knew in his heart that Qin Liang could not be blamed, he had to make his own decision.

He hesitated for a moment, and finally said: "Leave half of the troops to defend the city, and the other half will lead the people to retreat to Liangzhou City! Quick!"

Qin Liang: "Then, I will follow General Li's orders today."

Li Jinglong nodded, and quickly stepped up to the high place, looking at the plain in the distance. The soldiers behind them began to organize the people to retreat.

After half an hour, Li Jinglong fell into a great panic. It seemed that he had reached a new level of misfortune. The town was calm and nothing happened, and he had to be caught by the brother Shuhan who rushed over. Beheading, plus being scolded to death by the local people.

No... Li Jinglong took a deep breath and comforted himself: I have a heart lamp, and I must be a person bestowed by God with a heavy responsibility. I will not be beheaded by Ge Shuhan just like this... But the heart lamp does not belong to me in the first place. It seems a bit forced to say so.

"I made a serious mistake." Li Jinglong said to Qin Liang.

Qin Liang broke into a cold sweat again from being frightened by Li Jinglong, and asked, "Li Changshi, what do you mean?"

Li Jinglong said: "There is no Hong Jun here... If the ghost army hasn't arrived later, and the old general Ge Shuhan arrives first, I have no choice but to escape."

"Don't do it!" Qin Liang said in shock.

The heart lamp owned by Li Jinglong can only deal with monsters, but it cannot deal with ordinary people. What is the use of using the heart lamp to shine on people? I can only shake my eyes a few times... Thousands of troops rushed over, no matter how good my skills are, I would be trampled to death. I knew that I should wake up Hongjun cruelly. .

"Then you can only pray for the army of corpses to come." Qin Liang replied.

"You see?"

At dusk, the ground trembled slightly, Li Jinglong was startled, and rushed to a high place.

"Here we come!" Li Jinglong roared angrily, finally here!

However, the army was like a black tide line, as if gathering from all directions, forming a black tide, which continued to move northward.

Li Jinglong: "..."

Qin Liang tremblingly said: "How many?"

"Ten... one hundred thousand." Li Jinglong looked at the posture, roughly estimated the number, and said, "It's just a lot."

"How many people do we have?" Qin Liang asked again.

"One hundred." Li Jinglong replied.

Everyone: "..."

The army of 100,000 ghouls rushed forward like a tide, mercilessly running through the woods outside the southern town, like locusts crossing the border, and the hooves of 100,000 horses beat rhythmically like drums. The earth shook for a moment, Li Jinglong couldn't help stepping back and looked around. All the soldiers couldn't help shaking, even Qin Liang became frightened.

"How to do?"

Li Jinglong drew out the arrow decisively, put it on the bowstring, pulled it away, and aimed at the one hundred thousand ghoul cavalry who were approaching constantly. The black cavalry rushed towards Guo Yuanzhen with rumbling noises.

"Listen to my order, as soon as the arrow is fired, everyone set fire." Li Jinglong said calmly, "Push the oil pan down and retreat!"

The soldiers were about to retreat, and they couldn't help shaking with the torches, but Li Jinglong was lucky, and the arrow in his hand burst into a strong light. He knew that if his arrow could not arouse morale, he would surely collapse in front of the army, so Gathering all the power of the heart lamp, white light erupted all over the sky in an instant, and turned into a materialized aurora in the wind.

"Wow, it's shining," murmured the soldiers.

At the same time, Li Jinglong felt a throbbing pain in his heart, but the next moment, the brand mark on his chest emitted light with a "hum", releasing the Kun God's mana to protect his heart.

"What is that?!" Qin Liang said in shock.

Li Jinglong's whole body was bursting with strong light, and there was a faint appearance of a god behind him. The light in his eyes flowed, and he looked into the distance. In an instant, everything became very clear-a huge wolf was carrying a young man, running in the snow In the middle, he rushed to the city gate with a hundred thousand ghoul cavalry!

The sky was gloomy earlier, the gray wolf was one with the dark gray snow, and the boy was dressed in white, so what he could see was extremely inconspicuous.

Without saying a word, Li Jinglong aimed an arrow at the leading giant wolf, but the giant wolf roared angrily: "My own people—don't shoot the arrow!"

Li Jinglong was shocked, the arrow and the light were retracted at the same time, and he said in a deep voice: "Mo Zhigen?"

Hundreds of thousands of ghoul cavalry rushed a hundred paces away from the town, their speed gradually slowing down, and they dispersed to form a phalanx. The wolf took a few steps and flew into the town, and the soldiers shouted in panic.

"Changshi?!" Canglang said in shock, "Why are you? Run! Monsters are coming to attack the city!"

Sooner or later, the army of ghouls outside the town leaned on their guns at the same time, and with a single sound, thousands of troops charged towards Guo Yuan Town!

Li Jinglong roared: "It's too late to explain!" I had to pull the bowstring again, and the light spread out in an instant, and the arrow shot out, carrying a strong light into the battle formation. Open a mouth.

Qin Liang shouted: "Retreat!"

The soldiers threw torches into the oil pot one after another, kicked the oil pot down, and the fire cascaded down. The ghoul cavalry had come to the gate of the city and slammed into it!

The wooden city wall was knocked down like a piece of paper. The wolf carried Lu Xu and jumped onto the roof. With a roar, his figure became bigger. Lu Xu was almost thrown off, clutching the wolf's hair tightly, the wolf rushed in Fighting, trampling around, knocking over the ghoul cavalry.

The city wall collapsed, and the human soldiers scattered like birds and beasts. Qin Liang shouted among the chaotic army: "The whole team! Retreat!"

Li Jinglong couldn't help backing up, bowed his bow and set up an arrow, and the arrows flew everywhere like meteors, and the ghouls who were shot fell off their horses, but there were too many ghouls, one wave after another came, and when Li Jinglong approached No more time to shoot arrows, so he had to draw out his Wisdom Sword, shouted, turned his wrist sideways, white light lit up on the Wisdom Sword, and fought towards the ghouls!

"Long history! Lamp with your heart!" roared the wolf.

"It's being used!" Li Jinglong roared, before he had time to reminisce with Mo Zhigen, he said again: "Catch me a living one!"

The wolf said: "They are all dead!"

"I know!" Li Jinglong swung his sword away and rushed towards the ghouls in front of him. At this time, thousands of troops rushed towards them, unable to stand at all. Li Jinglong had to use the wolf to cover, and Lu Xu was on the left and right sides respectively. Fight ghouls. The soldiers defending the city had already fled.

"Catch only the living ones!" Li Jinglong roared, "Catch and leave!"

The wolf slapped it away, swept away the wight, and said loudly: "They are all dead! How can you catch them alive!"

Li Jinglong: "..."

Lu Xu rushed towards Li Jinglong with a shovel in his hand, and decisively shoveled the shovel across Li Jinglong's neck, knocking the head of the ghoul flying out, Li Jinglong thought so fast!

"Who is this?!" Li Jinglong shouted.

Canglang: "Where's Hongjun?!"

"Sleep at home!" Li Jinglong roared, and swept away with a sword, clearing away the ghoul cavalry on the left who rushed towards the wolf.

One person and one wolf, each asked their own questions, seeing more and more ghouls, the wolf was overwhelmed, covered in scars, Lu Xu shouted: "Hey!"

The wolf replied, "Let's go!"

The wolf was wounded and bleeding, but it aroused madness. It suddenly turned its head and let out a roar, which made Li Jinglong's eardrums ache.

"Catch! Catch! Catch!" Li Jinglong shouted.

"Which one?!" The wolf roared, grabbing one with one paw, and threw it at Li Jinglong's back without looking at it. Even the corpse and armor weighed two hundred catties, almost smashing him to the ground, roaring : "Is this all right?!"

"Don't move!" Li Jinglong roared, "Catch only the lively ones!"

The scene was chaotic, and the wolf caught another ghoul. The ghoul struggled and bit the wolf's paw. The wolf roared in pain and tore it in half, and the upper part crawled towards him. Come.

"Just this half!" Li Jinglong put away the sword and shouted, "Let's go!"

Canglang hastily covered the half corpse with the cloak on the ground, leaned down, let Li Jinglong and Lu Xu grab the sides of him, the front right paw grabbed the bag containing the half ghoul, and the other three paws flew away , Fleeing from the battlefield, Guoyuan Town behind him has become a ruin of burning flames, ghouls are struggling in the sea of flames, their bodies are still on fire and they are still running around.

But the ghoul obviously didn't intend to let Li Jinglong and his party go, and was gathering outside Guoyuan Town. As soon as they opened the distance, the whole army charged again, chasing after the wolf!

Li Jinglong shouted: "Run! Don't look back!"

The wolf looked back and said angrily: "Didn't they not chase after leaving the city?!"

"Who told you that?!"

"It's all like this!"

Lu Xu: "I don't know."

The ghoul army spread out its two wings to trap the wolf, but the wolf shouted: "We can't go further north! We will take them to Liangzhou City!"

When Li Jinglong was about to let the wolf turn a corner, he suddenly heard the sound of an avalanche of horseshoes, and nearly 20,000 cavalry came south from the north.

"What else?!" the wolf growled.

"Wait..." Li Jinglong grabbed the long hair on the side of the wolf. During the bumpy journey, he caught a glimpse of Hong Jun, who was leading the way, riding a horse and rushing towards them.

"Hong Jun!"

"Chang Shi—" Hong Jun galloped on his horse, getting closer to the wolf, and shouted, "The enemy is behind me! They are here to catch you, be careful... Mo Rigen?! Is it you?!"

Li Jinglong: "..."

Behind them was the army of 100,000 ghouls, and in front of them were the 20,000 Liangzhou cavalry led by Ge Shuhan. Li Jinglong almost passed out after losing his breath.

"Go west!" Li Jinglong roared.

Canglang and Hong Jun's horse rode together, turned suddenly, and rushed to the west. Li Jinglong swooped in the air and rushed towards the horse.

However, at that time, Hong Jun also flew towards the wolf and jumped on the wolf.

The two exchanged positions, and Li Jinglong was almost thrown off, straddling the saddle, while Hong Jun rode on the wolf's back.

Hong Jun: "What happened? Huh? Who are you?"

Li Jinglong: "..."

From behind, Qin Xuan replied: "Where's my father?!"

Li Jinglong was so angry that he said angrily, "Hongjun!"

Hong Jun looked behind the wolf, and when he was about to say "I'll jump back", he saw Ge Shuhan's cavalry about to slow down, but unexpectedly, the ghoul army crashed into it!

In an instant, Ge Shuhan's cavalry was caught off guard, and immediately turned on their backs. Hong Jun immediately shouted: "Mo Zhigen! Stop! I have to go back and save people!"

There was chaos on the battlefield, and Li Jinglong realized that the ghoul army had no interest in them at all, and they would charge north because of the arrival of Ge Shuhan.

The sound of fighting came from afar, Hong Jun turned over and said to the wolf, "You are injured, you are covered in blood, don't come over!"

Immediately, a cavalryman fled towards them, and was shot through the heart by the sharp arrows of the ghouls, and fell off the horse. Hong Jun got on the horse and rushed to the battlefield. Li Jinglong shouted: "Are you crazy?"

Hong Jun's heart was beating wildly. He brought the man out, but he was trapped in such a huge meat grinding wheel. How could he feel overwhelmed? He had to hold the Mo Dao in his right hand, and the shield transformed by the five-color divine light in his left hand, and rushed into it. In the battle group.

"Father!" Qin Xuan shouted to the battle group.

"Wait what are you going to do..." Li Jinglong was riding on the saddle behind Qin Xuan. Qin Xuan controlled the reins and shouted, "Drive!"

Li Jinglong yelled, and before he could draw out his sword, Qin Xuan brought him into the battlefield again.

Hong Jun pushed away the five-color divine light, and all the corpse soldiers were pushed out immediately. However, under the scuffle between the two sides, he didn't dare to swing the Mo Dao, for fear of hurting his own people.

"Old... General!" Hong Jun saw that Ge Shuhan's body was covered in blood and his helmet had fallen off, so he hurriedly helped him up. Ge Shuhan was very angry and shouted: "What monsters and ghosts!" Pushing Hong Jun away , snatched his Mo Dao, and slashed at the ghoul!

"Hey! Give me back the knife!" Hong Jun yelled, "Don't take my magic weapon!"

Countless ghouls rushed up from all around, but the next moment, a white light that opened up the world came, accompanied by Li Jinglong's angry shout! The surrounding ghouls were suddenly emptied, and then Li Jinglong rushed to Hong Jun and Ge Shuhan, swung his sword a few times, and wherever the white light went, all the ghouls collapsed.

Qin Xuan has received her father. Qin Liang's head is covered with blood, and he was shot by an arrow in his arm. Li Jinglong roared, "Quick retreat! The old general has been rescued! You are unprepared, you can't beat him!"

The cavalry were already afraid, and they did everything they could to save the commander. Now that Ge Shuhan is saved, who wants to fight? Immediately try to back off.

And at this moment, a low-pitched monster roar sounded from the distant rear of the ghoul army.

In the ruined Guoyuan Town, the deep voice spread throughout the wasteland, and the ghouls stopped chasing and killing the tribal army, and kept retreating like a tide.

When the signal sounded, Canglang raised his head immediately, and Li Jinglong turned his head to look into the distance instantly. The white snow was vast, and all the ghouls retreated to the horizon, as if they were regrouping and preparing for a new round of charge.

A large Xiliang cavalry regiment of nearly 20,000 people turned around and escaped without waiting for Ge Shuhan's order.

Canglang held half of the corpse in its paws, carried Lu Xu, followed by the horse, and said goodbye to Li Jinglong. In the ice and snow, the speed gradually slowed down.

"It's just two days." Canglang said hoarsely, "They destroyed three villages. Fortunately, the heart lamp is effective..."

The wolf's breathing became heavier, Li Jinglong stood in front of the horse, turned around and waited, and said: "Now we already know that the ghost army has a strength of 100,000 troops, and there is still a leader..."

"Mo Rigen?" Hong Jun sensed something was wrong.

The wolf's size kept shrinking, and its whole body glowed faintly. Lu Xu jumped off its back, only to see the wolf regain its human form, transforming into Mo Zhigen, planted headlong in the snow, and passed out.

Lu Xu screamed, and saw that Mo Zhigen's body was slowly bleeding, soaking a piece of snow around him.

Two hours later, Li Jinglong rushed into Ge Shuhan's general mansion with Mo Zhigen half in his arms. The carp demon grabbed the medicine bag, and Hong Jun hurriedly searched for medicine from it to stop Mo Zhigen's bleeding first.

The maid took a soaked cloth towel and wiped the blood on Ge Shuhan's head. Ge Shuhan had white hair and lingering fear. He stared at Li Jinglong and couldn't stop panting. Come in.

"Li Jinglong, tell me clearly, what's going on?!" Ge Shuhan said, "I won't cut off your head, and you, Kong Hongjun, you saved the old man's life, and I will definitely repay you."

Li Jinglong signaled Hong Jun to take Mo Rigen to heal his injuries, and he carried Mo Rigen into the backyard of the mansion on a stretcher. Lu Xu looked around and followed him in.

"It's a long story..." Li Jinglong's hands were covered in blood. Although he had a heart lamp to protect his body, he also suffered a lot of injuries. At this moment, he was exhausted and fell on the chair.

Zhang Hao and Qin Liang looked at Li Jinglong with varying degrees of trauma.
