"Hey, did you catch that thing last night?"
The next day at noon, the Ninth Mountain Military Camp was crowded with people at lunch time.
A soldier sat down with plates and bowls in his hands, approached a familiar comrade and asked in a low voice, saying that the man was on night patrol yesterday.
A monster sneaked into the Ninth Mountain Camp last night. This news was not blocked intentionally. Many people in the camp heard about it, but it did not cause much commotion.
After all, the mountain-cutting army was responsible for doing this. Besides, there was a general in the Ninth Mountain who had killed countless monsters. The bodies of those monsters were transported into the mountain two days ago. The shock was not yet fully digested by most of the new recruits, so they naturally did not have much fear of the monster they had never seen before.
So even though there was some noise last night, when the ban on each barracks was lifted during the day, everyone continued to do what they were supposed to do, blowing whistles and training as usual, as if nothing had happened last night.
"No, I heard that thing had a fight with a few cavalrymen and ran away. Now I don't know where it is hiding. Tell everyone to be careful. The camp is relaxed on the outside but tight on the inside. Don't take it lightly."
"By the way, if you notice that someone around you is behaving or speaking differently than usual, report it immediately. I heard that the monster can possess people and is very cunning."
A soldier who participated in the patrol and search yesterday whispered to the newcomer with a solemn look on his face, and turned his head to look at a crowded place not far away.
There were several men in green armor surveying the area with sharp gleams in their eyes, and holding a magical instrument that looked like the Bagua.
The visitor looked in the direction the other person was looking at, then smiled.
"Oh, that's natural. We have received the order. But why should we be afraid? We have the general. The monsters that come in are looking for death. Isn't that the fate of the countless monster corpses a few days ago?"
"That's right! With the general here, we are naturally not afraid of those evil spirits!" The soldier on the opposite side immediately stood in awe when he heard the general, "But we should still be careful. Don't let those beasts succeed."
The soldier who was asking the question had an unnatural smile on his face when he heard the latter part. He then changed the subject with what Ziran had just said. His ordinary eyes flickered, and he leaned forward and spoke in a lower voice.
"I understand. But, hey, when I mentioned this just now, I remembered that the bodies of the demons were transported to Zhonglang Palace. It seems that the people in charge of escorting them are not only our Ninth Mountain, but also other people. What do you think are the origins of these people?"
When the soldier on the opposite side heard this, he quickly straightened his body, glanced at the man, and his voice became much colder.
"Don't ask about this kind of thing. It's not something we should ask about."
The soldier who started the conversation smiled awkwardly and said, "Why are you looking at me like that? You're just curious and ask. Forget it, I won't ask anymore."
As he said this, he retracted his head and began to eat with his head down, devouring the food in no time.
The soldier on the opposite side looked at this guy with some hesitation, but finally lowered his head and started eating his meal.
After a while, the man finished his meal, said goodbye, and left with his bowl.
After this person left, the soldier on the opposite side's eyes flashed, and he stood up, walked up to a man in green armor in the camp, said a few words, and then pointed at the back of his comrade.
The captain in green armor nodded thoughtfully, then waved his hand back and called someone to follow him.
Not long after, someone came to report that the man was lost as soon as he turned the door.
Immediately, shouts and curses arose in the tent!
"Fuck"
"Find him out"
On the other side, the sight goes up from the camp at the foot of the mountain, along the rolling snow and wind, looking towards the height of the Ninth Mountain, a towering palace stands with mysterious majesty in the rolling snow and wind.
Ever since the name of the Ninth Mountain General Zhonglang has become more and more popular, the Zhonglang Hall that represents his identity has become more and more majestic.
At this time, the entire Zhonglang Palace was heavily guarded, the mountain was closed to the outside, and all restrictions were in place.
In the courtyard where the old man behind the Zhonglang Hall lived for recuperation, all outsiders were evacuated.
In the room, Lian Nishang personally held the bowl and bent down to pass the medicine into Mr. Wu's mouth.
"Captain Lian, you have been the one who personally took care of me these past few times. How come those girls are gone? What happened?"
Although Old Wu was weak, he was born in the Sky Patrol Bureau and had been an informant for so many years, so how could he not notice such a change? It was okay once or twice, but later he felt it was a bit strange, so he raised his eyelids and asked slowly.
Lian Nishang's eyebrows moved, and she felt that the old man in front of her had experienced many storms and would not panic over a monster, so she gave him a shot in advance, "Old Wu, a monster has sneaked into the mountain, and my brother's soldiers are chasing it. For your safety, they have withdrawn the others and are personally guarding the inside and outside."
When Old Wu heard this, he was not moved at all, but just felt bad. "Tell the generals not to do this. I have seen a lot of storms at my age. If it weren't for my luck, I would have died many times... If there are monsters entering the mountains, tell them to pay attention to the soldiers and don't waste... resources on me..."
It was somewhat difficult for Old Wu to say such a long sentence. He paused from time to time and was a little out of breath.
Lian Nishang used one hand to help him calm down. She also said, "I understand what you mean. Those generals won't listen. You don't need to worry about these things. Brother is good at commanding the army. He will never be thrown off balance by a monster."
"After you finish the medicine, you should have a good rest!"
As she spoke, Lian Nishang lowered the backrest behind Old Wu and let him lie flat.
"Ah" Old Wu felt powerless and didn't make any more trouble. He responded with a sound and closed his eyelids. He couldn't recover to his previous state in a short time. He was old, and his martial arts foundation was destroyed in his early years. His blood was weak. Even if his life was saved, he needed to recuperate slowly.
Seeing this, Lian Nishang got up from the edge of the bed and went to the front hall.
There, a red-armored figure was sitting cross-legged in the air and opened his eyes.
Yun Tiansheng is in charge of this room. In fact, there are several lines of defense outside.
He was inside, Lu Ming was outside, and the Nancheng garrison commander Mo, who had just opened his eyes to the magic power, was secretly watching every move on the mountain. Liu Qing was in charge of the situation at the foot of the mountain.
The four people had clear division of labor and handled the situation decisively, so there was no commotion caused by last night's accident.
"Thank you for your hard work, Yun Qiqi. You have trouble keeping watch here. The old man just woke up and felt that there was something wrong, so I told him the truth. He also said it shouldn't be that serious."
Lian Nishang thanked Yun Tiansheng for his hard work.
The other party landed on the ground with both feet. "It's okay. There's no need to say this anymore. Yun and the others are just doing our duty. That thing attacked our messenger captain and learned that the general was not in the Ninth Mountain. It dared to break into the military camp because of this. It must have some ulterior motive. Yun can't think of anything else, but Zhonglang Palace must not be lost."
Lian Nishang nodded, her heroic brows furrowed, "From the description of the monster by Yun Qiqi before, I think its methods are strange and powerful. It is right for the generals to be cautious. But if you need anything, be sure to tell me! I will do my part!"
As he spoke, he cupped his hands.
"nature!"
As soon as Yun Tiansheng finished speaking, his ears suddenly moved and he heard a faint cry outside the window.
Then, he moved, pushed open the door, leaped into the air, and looked down the mountain with sharp eyes.
At this time, at the foot of Yunding Mountain, a ray of silver light cut through the wind and snow and flew towards the Ninth Mountain Camp.
That is the silver light of the Aotian Falcon!
Soon, the silver light flew into the Ninth Mountain Camp.
"Aotian Falcon? Who sent it at this time!" Lu Ming's voice sounded in Yun Tiansheng's ears.
The other party was standing in the void dozens of feet away, and was also startled by the movement of Aotian Falcon.
Yun Tiansheng was also unsure, "I don't know. Wait a minute, Liu Qing will definitely bring news."
The two of them just watched and waited. About half a cup of tea later, two streaks of light broke through the wind and snow in the snow below the mountain. They were then blocked outside by the opened ban and landed on a cliff bridge.
Yun Tiansheng and Lu Ming, including the South City guard in the dark, all flashed in the direction of the incoming person and landed on the covered bridge.
In front, a thick white light curtain separated this covered bridge.
Yun Tiansheng took out the token and hit the light curtain, opening a passage.
Three meters outside the passage, two people stood side by side.
One of them is Liu Qing wearing red armor!
One of them was an old veteran wearing green armor!
A long goatee on the chin!
When Yun Tiansheng saw this person, he was shocked.
Isn’t this the Gongsun Yang they are going to find in Chuanzhongguan!
But at this moment, I had some doubts. Yesterday's incident had not yet been resolved. Could it be...
He and Lu Ming couldn't help but look at each other, and saw the concern in each other's eyes. Then he wanted to see what the Nancheng garrison who was traveling with him could see, and sent a message to him.
But suddenly, the veteran Qingjia on the opposite side spoke up.
"Don't look at it. I just heard Captain Liu explain the whole story."
"How dare you, a filthy creature, pretend to be me? I am blessed by the general's luck and incense."
As he spoke, a golden scroll flew out of his sleeve, and then the book grew in the wind to a height of two meters.
Then, the pages of the book began to flutter, golden words flew out, and a golden shadow condensed.
He holds a three-pointed, double-edged spear in his hand, is clad in brilliant armor, and has a tall stature, looking as imposing as a mountain.
"See General!"
Seeing this golden shadow, several people bowed down. (End of this chapter)
