When I met Xue Canghai, the scene became even more like a martial arts world.
The snow was falling heavily, piling up on the battlements, and the setting sun was as red as blood, shining obliquely on the top of the city. Xue Canghai sat cross-legged on the top of the city wall, sharpening his knife one by one.
The blade of the knife is also like blood, contrasting with the setting sun.
The north wind was howling, and the sound of sharpening knives spread rhythmically, with half of the city and thousands of soldiers listening together.
Zhao Changhe stood behind and watched without disturbing him. Xue Canghai also ignored the "Holy Son" and continued to sharpen his knife as if no one was around.
Zhao Changhe found himself enjoying this kind of scene in a very servile way. It would be even better if the other person was not Xue Canghai. Xue Canghai's words always made people feel a little out of place...
But Old Xue has been cleared of all charges. Now in the hearts of Puyang’s soldiers and civilians, as well as in the eyes of the world, he is a truly famous master on the list of troubled times, and he is qualified to show off...
"Clang!" Xue Canghai made a final move, his fingers slowly rubbing across the edge of the blade, a bloody aura gradually rising in his eyes, as if resonating with the bloody long sword. The blade trembled, and a streak of blood suddenly shot out, rushing straight into the sky. The next moment, the sun set in the west, and the sky was completely dark.
It has a sense of like chopping off the setting sun with a knife.
Zhao Changhe felt that the opponent in Lao Xue's mind was Yue Hongling...
Like Cui Yuanyong, Xue Canghai didn't care at all about Zhao Changhe, who flew faster than a monkey. When the gap between them was this big, they would not have the intention to chase after him, but would only look up at him. However, both of them could not forget Yue Hongling who had once stood in their way.
Zhao Changhe himself missed Yue Hongling very much. He hadn't heard from her for a long time. He didn't know where she had wandered to in this great change of the world. But he was not as worried as before. He had proved several times that Sister Yue didn't need anyone to worry about her. She should worry about herself.
Xue Canghai finally sheathed his sword, turned around and bowed deeply to Zhao Changhe: "Holy Son."
He felt the same as Cui Yuanyong. This Zhao Changhe was really strange. He hadn't put on any airs until now, and he was willing to stand behind him and watch him show off. Well, of course, he wasn't showing off. When sharpening a knife, a swordsman always has some insights and doesn't want to stop. Zhao Changhe is also a swordsman, and he understands this.
The more this happened, the more Xue Canghai respected him in his heart. It was not unfair to follow such a person.
In fact, the Blood God Sect is Zhao Changhe's direct personal guard. Yesterday, Elder Sun was sitting in the seat of honor at Prince Zhao's wedding... Well, Instructor Sun became the chief elder without any reason. He is a real winner in life.
Zhao Changhe asked, "The Blood God Sword has been through so many battles, so it must have some tiny cracks and wear and tear, right?"
"Yes." Xue Canghai sighed: "After so many years, if I had changed to other swords, they would have been unusable long ago. The Blood God Sword is not a magical sword, it is not easy for it to be so durable..."
Zhao Changhe said: "Lie is also a very strange swordsman who focuses on formations but not forging. I will help you recast it when I have time... Damn, when I didn't know how to forge, there was nothing to do. Once I learned how to forge, it feels like all the work is done."
Xue Canghai laughed and said, "That's why people who know how to cook always cook more at home. If you don't want to be a cook for the rest of your life, don't learn it."
Zhao Changhe laughed loudly: "The truth of life!"
Xue Canghai smiled and said, "Speaking of formation arrays, more array plates have been repaired now."
Zhao Changhe nodded. He had repaired the main body of the array before, but he didn't have the time to search for the various inlays. Obviously, the Blood God Cult had to find them themselves. This time, the Blood God Cult generously supported the Cui family, and the Cui family certainly repaid them. The war in the past few months did not affect the Cui family sending people to search for the inlays of the Blood God array. With the Cui family's help, it was much easier to do this than the Blood God Cult itself. It would not be surprising if they had gathered all the items now.
According to the rules and routines of the formation of secret realms, a formation plate will not be scattered in different secret realms after it collapses, but should be scattered all over the land of Shenzhou, which is relatively easy to find. Of course, if it is scattered on the seabed, it will never be found. Generally, rivers, mountains and fields are no problem. Those beads are full of evil spirits, and no matter how they are buried, there will definitely be strange phenomena, and it is easy for people from all over the world to collect them.
"How much more?"
"We are missing one orb, and there is news."
"where?"
"It is very likely in the Changshengtian Temple." Xue Canghai grinned: "We are lucky."
It was indeed a good fortune that it did not collapse to the bottom of the sea. As long as we know its whereabouts, everything will be fine. Although the Changshengtian Temple may be the final BOSS level visible in this world, it is not something that the Blood God Cult can deal with, but it is an enemy that the "Holy Son" must fight. Sooner or later, it will be a life-and-death battle. I'm afraid that the Blood God Cult is red-eyed at this moment. The incomplete holy objects can send out a heavenly attack. Zhao Changhe used this to defeat Wang Daoning and save Cui Wenjing. Xue Canghai used this to defeat Wang Daozhong and his reputation turned around. It goes without saying what kind of help the complete holy objects can bring to everyone. What's more, this thing is related to the perception and inheritance of cultivation. The more complete the array, the clearer the perception. Now Old Xue's progress is faster than the previous few years combined, and the Blood God Cult is much stronger.
If he could really restore the holy object completely, he, Xue Canghai, would be the most glorious and glorious saint leader in the history of the Blood God Cult. As long as the Blood God Cult existed for thousands of years, he would be worshipped by the believers.
However, Zhao Changhe himself has become less interested in Lie's inheritance... He knows that there is still a lot of content in the subsequent Blood Evil Sword Technique, and it is indeed very powerful, but at the current level, it is no longer the time to seek inheritance from others, but the time to find something of his own. Let Old Xue slowly figure out Lie's inheritance.
Zhao Changhe said: "The Changshengtian Temple cannot be built in a short time, we must unify it first."
Xue Canghai said: "No problem, who do you want to kill?"
"Of course the Wang family."
"when?"
"Rest for a night and set off at dawn."
"In fact, we can attack at night. No one would have thought that we would attack the city on a snowy night. At least the first city in the east will be no problem. Of course, we can only attack like this at the beginning. We should wait until spring for the follow-up. This icy and snowy weather..."
"No need for a night attack. We need to make a big noise, and it would be best if the whole world knows about it." Zhao Changhe turned his head to the north and whispered, "This battle is not mainly to attack the city, it has some other purposes... Do you really think we are asking our brothers to attack the city in the heavy snow? Even if I don't understand military affairs, I know that this is not the way to fight..."
… …
Capital city.
When Zhao Changhe went south to Puyang in the morning, the capital was also swearing an oath. Huangfu Shaozong, who had just led his people back not long ago, stood on the battlefield outside the city: "Brothers! The Wang family has been rebelling for almost half a year! We used to help the Cui family defend, and it was very frustrating. Now that Wang Daoning is dead, it is time for you to attack! Don't be afraid of the cold weather, let's go to Langya to celebrate the New Year!"
The words were spoken loudly, but the soldiers responded coldly.
Damn, it’s winter now, do you see how much snow is there
If you go to war at this time, where will your mother be
But Huangfu Shaozong still had good control over the army, and the army finally set out reluctantly without causing any trouble.
In the distance, Lu Jianzhang and others stroked their beards, looked at each other, and the same idea came to their minds.
"The young lady emperor, the general who has been fighting cocks and riding horses in the capital since he was a child, the venerable who only knows how to sacrifice and kill people in the martial arts world... It is indeed an unreliable makeshift team. Who would have thought that the most reliable person in this court is actually a bandit from Beimang Mountain. He is really amazing to be able to conquer Qinghe alone."
"I don't think it's a horse, it's a whip."
"Don't underestimate Cui Wenjing. This whip can subdue Cui Yuanyang, but it can't subdue Cui Wenjing. The King of Zhao must have some skills. But is it because of this that Your Majesty is so proud? Do you think that you can easily take Langya by joining forces with the Cui family? It's not only inappropriate to go to war at this time, but it also hollows out the defense of the capital, which is unwise. I think if the first battle goes against you, the army will mutiny."
"Master Tang didn't persuade him?"
"This expedition was so inexplicable, we didn't know about it beforehand, and Lord Tang probably didn't know either. But now Lord Tang should have rushed straight to the court to curse, right?"
"Heh... Then we'll go too. It's time to go to court. Watching the quarrel between Lord Tang and the young lady is also a sight to behold in this new court."
Everyone laughed and walked away slowly.
They said they were going to court, but in fact they all went back home first to change clothes... Not long after, many people at home secretly left and disappeared in the wind and snow.
