Chapter 171 The Beacon Fire Festival (7)(1/2)
Xu Changan finally failed to reach Shushan. In just a few days, news from various sects was bigger than the snowflakes in the extreme west, and kept pouring into Xu Changan's ears.
Pei Yingfeng was also assassinated, but fortunately the old man from Lianchi took action in time and escaped; news also came from Tiejian Mountain, but due to Tiejian Mountain's behavior a few months ago, Tiejian Mountain, one of the six sects, had no strength to speak out; Lingyin Temple was also encountered, but their attack was like a symbolic act.
After all, Tao kills demons and Buddha suppresses demons. If the demons are brought out because of them, it will be more than worth the loss. Several demons come out and combine with the demons to form a blood demon, which will cause chaos in the world. If the demons come out in full bloom, I am afraid that even the dragon in the world will be powerless to turn the world back.
Of course, if it weren't for Qi Fengjia's message, Xu Changan would have to go to Shushan.
After all, Shushan has a close relationship with him. Even though Li Yishan does not recognize him, he has long regarded himself as a disciple of Shushan, and Lin Zhinan is his uncle.
Moreover, when he was in trouble, although Shushan said he would not help and wanted to close the mountain, this master would always quietly open the back door for his master. Every time he suffered, Shushan quietly stood behind him and became his backing.
In terms of emotion and reason, Xu Chang'an must go to Shushan.
But now, it cannot.
He was going to rush back to Chang'an, and there was something more important.
Therefore, the group hurriedly turned around and headed towards Chang'an.
...
The north of Tongzhou is an ice field, the south of Jingmen Prefecture is the South China Sea, and the west of Youzhou is a snow-capped mountain. The desert in the east is adjacent to Suzhou of the Holy Dynasty and across the river.
People east of Suzhou call this river Wangxiang River, and the people in Suzhou call this river Thirsty River.
At this time, a group of people appeared in Langao, the capital of Suzhou.
Their outfits are very different from those of the Suzhou people (a very different). The Suzhou people rarely wear silk and veils. After all, the wind and sand are everywhere here. If they wear silk and veils, they may not be able to walk a few miles. The silk will become rags under the erosion of wind and sand.
Generally speaking, when the people of Suzhou distinguish between foreigners, the first thing is to look at the outfits, and the second thing is to look at his skin.
There is no need to say much about the outfit. The people of Suzhou, regardless of whether they are poor or not, wore cotton and linen fabrics whenever they came out of the house. Although the Holy Dynasty had explicit regulations at the beginning, what officials wore, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce wore, in this place, no matter how gorgeous silk clothes were, they were not as comfortable as cotton and linen.
As for the skin, the weather is not as good as Youzhou, but it can be regarded as a small stove.
So the people here are dark skin and bumpy faces, like a broken road. This is the trace of being stained by the soil and water. Moreover, the people here are mainly pasta, and the men are strong and have a sense of honesty, but if they fight, they have a sense of wildness. As for their daughter's family, they also have a sense of heroism and sword-browed eyes. Although in terms of the ability to charm men, women in Quanzhou are not as good as a woman in Pingkangfang; but if they fight, women in Quanpingkangfang will not beat any woman here.
At this time, the people sitting in the attic were either white or blue, and their clothes were also colorful; there were men, and there were women, and women with fair skin, but men's skin was as creamy as the skin.
Since these people arrived in Suzhou, they were surrounded by curious eyes.
Moreover, the restaurant here has no tea, either with dumpling soup or drinking.
The young man in a white shirt took a sip of the pimple soup and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
"This place is different from Chang'an and Jingmen Prefecture, and it is also quite interesting. Think about it, people outside Suzhou call that river Wangxiang River, but the people of Suzhou call that river Thunder and Yin River, hey!"
The young man talking was Zhan Xu. The few people who followed him were naturally the Three Emperors of Wan Yao Pavilion, as well as Hoge and Zhan Nan.
Now that Zhan Xu spoke, everyone dared not speak.
Hong Ziyan was a little bolder, and sighed and looked at Zhan Xu and asked, "Isn't it normal for two names? God..." She wanted to call the messenger of God, but when she saw Zhan Xu's eyes, she hurriedly changed her mouth.
"It's normal, why did the young master sigh?"
Zhan Xu smiled faintly, looked at Hong Ziyan and said, "This is an interesting place. Do you know where the word "thirsty drink" in Thirsty Drink comes from?"
Seeing that everyone shook their heads, Zhan Xu didn't keep it a secret, and said directly: "These two words come from a poem 'laughing talk about thirsty drinking the blood of the Huns'. The people on the other side of the river regard this place as their hometown, but the people on the other side regard them as their enemies."
Everyone thinks this is extremely ordinary. In your eyes, you may be an enemy in his heart.
"Actually, we are the same." Zhan Xu said without leaving any trace, then raised the dumpling soup on the table and took a sip.
Everyone lowered their heads and stopped talking.
Zhan Xu knew that everyone was thinking differently now and it was difficult to lead the team, but it didn't matter. They would have to be here for a long time and could be trained slowly.
He put down the bowl, got up and gave the waiter a silver note. He not only settled the account, but also opened a room and asked the waiter to prepare some cotton and linen clothes for the few people.
Zhan Xu shook his body, and his white robe had already turned gray-brown.
"Okay, we have to stay here for a while. There are many interesting things. Let's talk to you slowly in the future." After that, we are about to leave.
The closer he was to the seal, the more impatient Hog became. Perhaps it was because the wind and sand were too strong that made his strong temper aroused.
"Young Master, we assassinated the sect leader of all sizes, why don't we take this opportunity..."
Before he could finish his words, a slap was added to his face.
Hogg touched his face and was about to get angry when he saw Kai Anyang looking at his palm. He knew that the person who slapped him Kai Anyang, and he had already taken back all the swear words.
"Treat respectful to the young master. Some people should not talk about you, even if your ancestors come out, they will have to bow down and surrender."
Zhan Xu's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he glanced at Anyang and Hong Ziyan with quite approvingly. He waved his hand and made a smooth move: "It's okay, since everyone wants to know, it's okay to talk."
"Our action this time is not for ourselves, but for the blood demons in the snow-capped mountains. The seal of the blood demon lineage is different from us. They don't need such complicated things to open the seal, they just need a blood sacrifice."
"But why do we need to help them?" Hong Ziyan was a little puzzled. She was increasingly unable to see through Zhan Xu now.
"It's helping ourselves. If they succeed, the human race will not care about us. Besides, the Nine Dragon Talisman is not easy to destroy, but it's not too difficult. We will not be able to open the seal for a while, but we must find something for the human race. Otherwise, they will destroy the Nine Dragon Talisman, but how can we compete with the human race based on several groups?"
"Young Master is amazing!" After some explanation, the few people reacted. Yaqi could see Anyang's attitude towards Zhan Xu, and his attitude changed immediately. He flattered and immediately arranged for Zhan Xu.
"But it's hard to say, there may be variables." Zhan Xu ignored Ya Qi and said lightly.
"Variables, is it that the young master refers to Xu..."
Before Hong Ziyan finished speaking, Zhan Xu nodded and admitted: "That's right, it's Xu Chang'an. Sometimes, he is alone, more useful than dozens of sects."
Hearing this, Yaqi came without thinking and opened his mouth.
"What are you afraid of? He is just a small sect..." He immediately closed his mouth when he realized that everyone's eyes were wrong.
After all, he was defeated by this little master at the beginning! Who knew if he still had elixirs in his hands? If he had that kind of elixir, Xu Changan would be a big change.
The four monsters in the snow mountain were embarrassed to speak out. If Yaqi knew that Xu Changan had a stronger borrowing magic pill in his hand, he would probably not dare to speak loudly.
...
The Holy Dynasty is full of spring, and the place far west is still filled with snow.
The four of them staggered, holding a stick in their hands, as if they were ordinary people climbing a mountain. Every time they took two steps, they stopped and gasped.
"You said that we fly with swords and objects all day long, and we don't know how much beautiful scenery we have lost."
Yuan Batian stopped, two voices came out of his mouth, and turned his face to look at the three people behind him, half black and half white.
Qi Futian, who was also half dark and half normal, sneered and looked at Yuan Batian and said, "If you don't dare to control the sword, you won't dare to control the sword. Now probably those old men want to find us. Isn't it equivalent to becoming a target?"
After saying that, he glanced at the few people, sighed, swept past the few people with a stick, and continued to walk forward.
Yuan Batian touched his nose awkwardly, but didn't say much, just glanced at the two people walking at the end in a cold manner.
Lin Haotian didn't dare to say too much now, so he lowered his head and continued to walk forward. Instead, Tao Tuntian looked at the backs of the two blood demons who had already awakened, threw the stick hard, and shouted at the two of them: "Where is going, explain it clearly!"
When Yuan Batian heard this, he stopped, turned his head, narrowed his eyes, revealing a murderous aura.
Tao Tuntian took two steps back and made a defensive posture.
The atmosphere changed instantly, and the eyes met. Although he knew he was unable to defeat him, Tao Tuntian was not afraid at all and was even ready to take action.
The wooden stick in Yuan Batian's hand also turned into a stubborn iron rod.
Seeing that the two of them were about to fight when they had disagreements, at this moment, a light cough came and one hand held Yuan Batian's shoulder.
Yuan Batian turned around and saw that it was Qi Futian.
Qi Fu winked at the angel, Yuan Batian snorted coldly and walked in front.
Seeing Qi Futian coming out to smooth things over, Tao Tuntian also softened. Although Qi Futian is now instigated by the demons, he is still his childhood friend and brother. Before Qi Futian awakened, he took good care of Qi Futian. Therefore, although Qi Futian had already awakened at this time and his temperament changed drastically, he also took good care of Tao Tuntian.
If Qi Futian hadn't protected Tao Tuntian, Yuan Batian would have swallowed Tao Tuntian long ago.
Seeing that his brother stood up, Tao Tuntian also fell silent.
Qi Futian looked at Tao Tuntian and Lin Haotian who were quite resentful, and grinned and said, "This time we went to the sealed ground of our blood demon lineage. The demon clan spent a lot of effort to seal our blood demon. The human clan also sealed the demon clan when the demon clan was seriously injured. However, the human clan's seal on the demon clan was stronger."
Tao Tuntian breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. When Lin Haotian heard this, his eyes rolled and he couldn't express his sorrow and joy.
"Then where is this seal?"
Qi Futian did not answer his question positively, and he kept a secret and said, "Our blood demon lineage uses blood as a guide and meat as a feed. When the demon clan sealed us, in order to prevent our predecessors from forcibly breaking out, he not only tried every means to weaken their cultivation. He also set up a large formation to constantly absorb their vitality."
Speaking of this, he stopped and looked at Tao Tuntian and Lin Haotian with a smile.
Tao Tuntian pondered for a while, his eyes lit up.
"In this snowy mountain, I heard that there is a medicine garden full of rare grasses. I had thought before that, in this extremely cold place, besides snow lotus and other things, what qualifications are there for other medicinal materials to live in this ice and snowy world? It turned out that they were grown with vitality as the soil. I am a little curious now. If Xu Changan knew that the pills he took were the life of innocent people, I wonder what would he think?"
When Lin Haotian heard this, he frowned and answered the question for Xu Changan.
"He won't care."
"Why?" Tao Tuntian asked immediately.
"It's not the one he killed, why does he care? Xu Changan is indeed kind, not simple or stupid. His kindness only exists in the rule of law. If a person like him breaks free from the shackles of law and self-morality, he may be even more terrible than us." Lin Haotian said lightly.
"Okay, stop talking." Yuan Batian suddenly turned around and interrupted the conversation between the few people.
"Since you all know, let's act separately. Opening the seal requires a blood sacrifice. It requires a lot of blood. I don't want to squat here and wait. You and the Tao first go around to see if anyone has guarded there in advance. If there is, lead it away first. I will take our young master Lin to Youzhou and get some blood to prepare for a blood sacrifice."
When Qi Futian heard this, he snorted coldly and his face turned cold.
"You are very scheming. If you are guarding here, you will be besieged by the monsters if you are not careful..." Without saying a word, Yuan Batian held the iron rod that was originally carried on his shoulders to the ground and said impatiently: "Or why we change it, it's like killing people without escaping from the pursuit of Luo family and the Holy Dynasty!"
