Exorcism

This is a sad army, even the breath it exhales is condensed into miserable clouds of sorrow. This is a strong army. Even if the legs are filled with lead, the soldiers refuse to take off their armor and stand in the snow. Walking through the ground step by step, without controversy or complaint, always ready to go into battle.

They did fight a lot.

Yin Buchen stood on the city tower, looking at the long snake-shaped procession coming from the north, and murmured: "I really let the Taoist Master say it accurately. He is getting more and more divine. He can even see what will happen in five days." ——It may be that he is blind. In Duanliu City, sooner or later someone will come, either to seek refuge with Zuo Liuying or to seek revenge against him. "

A gray-white paper bird flew over, with several holes scattered all over its body. It stopped a dozen steps in front of Yin Buchen and flapped its ragged wings.

"Where does the army come from, so poor?" Yin Buchen waved his hand and said loudly: "There is no owner in Duanliu City. It's first come, first served. We arrive first, and we are the landlords. Go back and tell your people: the army stopped at thirty Inside and outside, the coach comes to talk, at most he is allowed to lead... Hey, I haven’t finished yet!”

The paper bird flew away.

Soon after, the army stopped as expected. Yin Buchen nodded, "It's quite sensible. Let's go, monkey cubs, come to negotiate with me."

Yin Buchen jumped from the tower to the outside of the city, and more than forty armored monkeys followed him to the ground.

On the edge of the city, Mu Lie was practicing his sword skills on the snow in front of the tent. He finally gave up the search and sharpened and danced his knife from morning to night. When he woke up, he even took off his fur coat, and the knife danced with a cold light. He did not I saw the paper bird, not to mention the army in the distance.

Yin Buchen and the monkeys sneered at the same time, lowered their lips, rolled up their sleeves and walked away. This has become a habit. Whenever he sees Mu Lie, he will involuntarily make this series of actions.

Beside the Jie River, Mu Xingqiu was writing talismans on the outer wall of the first-floor tower, using his hands as pens and blood and mana as ink. The talismans were dark red at first and would disappear after a few hours. He writes talismans very slowly, often stopping in a daze, and can't write more than a few words a day. In the past five days, he didn't even finish writing a piece of the tower body around the entrance.

"Thirty-three thousand Taoist talismans, no matter how much blood it is, it's not enough to write it. Yin Buchen didn't dare to laugh at Taoist Master, so he could only sigh with the monkeys.

After taking a few steps, Yin Buchen felt that he should have a mount to avoid being looked down upon by the other party, so he yelled a few words that even he himself could not understand. The monkeys understood and worked together, folded into three layers, and lifted the Demon Lord. At the top, running quickly towards the north along the river, from a distance, it looks like a big spider with dozens of legs and feet.

After running four or five miles, Yin Buchen stopped. This was his territory and he couldn't meet him too far, lest he lose his dignity.

A group of cavalry came galloping in the distance. There were at least a hundred people, more than Yin Buchen expected. "Mortals are so timid. I went out alone to meet them, but they actually sent so many people."

Yin Bushen counted more than forty monkeys at his feet.

The cavalry was getting closer and closer, and Yin Buchen understood why so many people were coming. More than half of the people who came were holding various flags. The only common feature was that they were as shabby as paper birds, and some only had a few strips of cloth left. No pattern can be seen.

Those horses were obviously blessed with the magic of talismans. They could run very fast and did not slip on the ice and snow. When they were half a mile apart, the cavalry stopped and lined up to protect the only commander riding a unicorn. A general urged The horse galloped a few dozen steps in front of Yin Buchen. He reined up his horse and took a circle. He looked at Yin Buchen who was standing on the shoulders of a group of monkeys. "Are you a human or a monster? Tell me your name."

"What if it's a human? What if it's a demon?" Yin Buchen asked lazily. The other party didn't show any special magic, so he didn't need to be afraid.

"If you are a human being, go and see Emperor Ci. If you are a monster, kneel down and surrender."

Yin Buchen laughed loudly and looked over at the commander on Qilin's back. "The Ci Emperor is not dead yet. It's amazing. He commanded an army of beggars without forgetting to show off. I am a demon clan, surnamed Yin. My name is Yin Buchen, he is the son of Nanhai Jiao King, and he is now the lord of Duanliu City. If you want to pass by me, please pay the fare first, it is not expensive, just let Emperor Ci kowtow to me three times."

The knight snorted coldly and rode back.

"Let you see what I am capable of, and then see how fragile mortals are." Yin Buchen was talking to the monkey on the ground. After all, the other party had a large number of people, and he did not dare to be too careless. He summoned a demon bone staff and a With a half-withered demon head, he turned back and glanced at the Patriarch Tower, feeling more confident.

"Dao Zun seems to know Emperor Ci... No matter what, since I am asked to be the protector, I will make the decision. At worst, they will be spared, but they must be taught a lesson. 'Kneel down and surrender if you are a monster.' Death is imminent. , but also thinking about destroying demons.”

To Yin Buchen's disappointment, the cavalry actually retreated. After driving five miles, half of the cavalry protected Emperor Ci and returned to the main force. More than thirty cavalry stopped and all dismounted. One general bent his bow and nocked an arrow, and three One person held a pen to add talismans to the arrows, while the remaining people knelt in a circle and murmured something.

"The army of the Holy Talisman Dynasty has fallen to this point. They don't even have ready-made talisman weapons." Yin Buchen was no longer afraid. He hit the demon's head with his staff and released three wisps of black smoke, leaving one wisp for self-protection. One ray moves forward to attack, the other ray is slower and can attack or defend.

On the opposite side, three Talisman masters stepped aside. The bow bender still did not shoot an arrow. A kneeling soldier stood up, raised an ancient statue with both hands, yelled, and suddenly spurted out a mouthful of blood at the arrow. Then he fell down stiffly.

Yin Buchen was shocked. He didn't care about the dead, but the human warriors under Emperor Ci actually used the demon clan's blood sacrifice technique. This was an unprecedented strange thing.

The bow bender finally loosened the string, and the arrow with the blessing talisman and stained with blood shot out. He was facing the black smoke flying at the front of the attack. With a bang, the smoke disappeared without a trace. The arrow did not stop, but it was stronger and faster. Faster, in the blink of an eye, it hit the black smoke preparing for battle in the middle, and defeated it with another bang. The arrow suddenly glowed, like a large ball of flames coming towards the face.

Yin Buchen was really shocked this time, and the monkeys under his feet were also squeaking restlessly.

The monkeys were stunned for a moment, then used their hands and feet to burrow underground one after another.

The arrow of the talisman does not care about the monkeys on earth, but only pursues Yin Bu Shen.

"Dao Zun! Help!" Once Yin Buchen loses confidence, he no longer cares about face. He flew fast, and the arrow was even faster. It didn't take long to reach behind him, and he could almost feel the heat.

Mu Lie came forward with a sword, "Come here quickly!"

Yin Buchen panicked and almost flew towards Mu Lie. He suddenly remembered that he was a mortal. How could he block the arrows of the talisman that even he did not dare to take? So he continued to fly towards the Patriarch Tower, looking for Mu Xingqiu everywhere.

Just changing a thought, Yin Buchen's speed slowed down slightly, and he suddenly felt a pain in the back of his heart. The black smoke that protected him was broken, and all his demon power was lost. He screamed and fell to the ground, just at Mu Lie's feet.

Mu Lie shouted loudly, raised his sword to receive the attack, and there was another loud bang. The arrows of the talisman and the light were scattered to pieces, and they fell to the ground. Mu Lie was shocked so much that his arms were numb, and he could hardly hold the sword, and he took several steps back. , sitting on the ground, also very frightened.

Yin Buchen was surprised and scared, "I, I was shot, go and ask Taoist Master to save me, no, no, Taoist Master is not good at saving people, so I have to go to the west of the city to ask Taoist Qin."

"Yes." Mu Lie jumped up and was about to run but stopped, "No, the enemy is chasing me."

"Ah, so fast?" Yin Buchen reluctantly raised his upper body and looked north. Sure enough, General Bengong led his men to chase him on horseback. The speed was extremely fast, and he was not far away from him.

"We have to call Dao Zun and let him defeat these people first." Yin Buchen jumped up regardless of the pain.

"Hey, you're not injured." Mu Lie said looking at Yin Buchen's back.

"No?" Yin Buchen touched the back of his heart with the demon bone staff with his backhand. Sure enough, there was no arrow injury, and there was no serious problem in using his demon power. It turned out that he was frightened and fell down, rather than being seriously injured. "This It's an internal injury, you don't understand magic."

Yin Buchen understood that he was not injured and Mu Lie was able to catch the talisman's arrow because he was protected. No matter whether the protector was Mu Xingqiu or Qin Lingshuang, he had nothing to fear.

The cavalry caught up, and General Bengong looked at Mu Lie, "You can actually catch my demon-breaking arrow."

"It's not that difficult." Mu Lie stood in front of the knife, unaware of the protection he received.

"You are obviously a human being, why would you collude with the demon clan?" General Bengong asked.

"Monster clan? Who is the demon clan?"

General Bengong looked at Yin Buchen.

"Is he a demon?" Mu Lie knew Yin Buchen's name and had never communicated with him. He only thought that the monkey around this person was strange. He did not expect that he would be a demon. After thinking about it, "Zuo Liuying Or humans, don’t you still snatch Nascent Soul? As long as I am my enemy, I will treat him as one of my own.”

General Bengong took off his helmet and said to Yin Buchen: "I seem to have seen you before. Who is the 'Tao Zun' you called just now?"

Yin Bu Shen was seriously injured, but his ribs still hurt. He said angrily: "I am famous all over the world. You have seen me, but I... I seem to have seen you too. What country are you a prince from?"

"I am King Huaibi of the Treading Country."

Yin Buchen suddenly remembered that a few years ago, he and Mu Xingqiu, who had just left the Zhibu State, went to the Talang Kingdom in the south, where they defeated the half-demon and a large number of demon troops, and Prince Huaibi at that time became the king. .

"You're not dead either? Ha, Kunchao's Five Elements Catastrophe is really... You can become the king, and I still have a share of the credit. You actually shot me with an arrow. It's really ungrateful."

"Is Dao Zun General Mu?" King Huaibi only cared about this matter.

"So what if it is? So what if it's not?" Yin Bu Shen's confidence returned.

King Huaibi jumped off his horse, handed over his sword, bow, and helmet to the soldiers who followed him, and came back empty-handed.

Yin Buchen raised the demon bone staff and demon head, "Don't think that I will be merciful just because we have met you once."

It was not him who King Huaibi walked toward. Yin Buchen and Mu Lie turned around and saw that Mu Xingqiu had arrived at some point and was standing a dozen steps away.

"Tao Zun doesn't remember what happened in the past. It's useless for you to try to trick him." Yin Buchen reminded loudly.

King Huaibi turned a deaf ear and walked to Mu Xingqiu, knelt down on one leg and lowered his head, "I didn't expect to meet General Mu here. It must be the arrangement of the ancient gods. Please save this unfortunate army, it It will be destroyed in the hands of the Ci Emperor."
