Exorcism

Without the protection of the ancestor peak's magic, the three-headed unicorns were completely exposed to the eyes of mortals. They showed no stage fright at all. They raised their heads proudly and walked around curiously in the military camp, avoiding the crowds wherever they passed. Anyone who dares to stop within ten steps will have the opportunity to see the long sharp teeth of the two adult unicorns and the posture of the baby unicorn ready to pounce. Although it is only a few years old, it is already about the same size as its mother and only smaller than its father. a little. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test

But it was the three of them who gave the defenders of Duanliu City the greatest confidence, supporting some of the soldiers to stay standing. As for General Mu from the capital, he frightened them as soon as he spoke: There is nowhere to escape, and the monsters are attacking the entire human world. , there is no such scene in the most terrifying nightmare.

Shen Hao's eyes were following the three-headed unicorn, but his ears were listening to Mu Xingqiu's words. He couldn't help but wonder if the effect would be better if he spoke by himself, but he remained silent, knowing that Mu Xingqiu's abilities were more than just this.

Huang Duwei really wished that he could be twenty years younger. At that time, he had so much courage that he wished he could give it to others. He clamored for a bloody battle with the demons every day. Unlike now, he only hears "The demon soldiers are attacking." "Four words made my legs weak with fear. The javelin thrown by the flying demon in front of the gate of the city guard's mansion burned for half an hour. During this period, no one dared to approach or try to extinguish it. It was then that Captain Huang's confidence in General Mu dropped to the bottom. Even if he saw it, Qilin has not fully recovered.

Mu Xingqiu looked at this almost ragtag group of soldiers. After some of them had stopped crying and their emotions had stabilized a little, he continued: "Those who want to escape Duanliu City can leave now. I don't need the help of cowards." I defend this city."

If Mu Xingqiu wanted to use this method to arouse the fighting spirit of the soldiers, it would be a disastrous failure. The soldiers were not ashamed of being "cowards" at all, and nearly half of them immediately put down their weapons. As long as one person takes a step, they will all follow him and leave the military camp. Even if there is nowhere to escape, fleeing can still survive longer than fighting.

"I am actually a farmer." A soldier said loudly. Duanliu City's military discipline has been in disrepair for a long time. Ordinary soldiers are not afraid to speak in front of the general, "Give me a hoe and I will be good at using it. Knife and gun? I don't want to delay the general's meritorious service."

The soldiers unanimously expressed their agreement and reported their true occupations. They were either farmers or traders, more than three hundred soldiers. There are fewer than sixty people who can actually hold a sword.

Captain Huang's face had lost its normal color all day, and now it turned red again. He approached General Mu and said, "The soldiers of the Xuanfu Army here are hereditary and cannot be compared with those from the frontier."

Mu Xingqiu nodded and listened patiently to the soldiers' complaints. No one had left the military camp yet. He thought this was a good sign, so he raised his right arm to indicate that he was going to speak, "I just want to ask. When the demon soldiers come, will they spare you because you are not real soldiers?"

No one said anything.

"When you escaped from Duanliu City,

Can you take away your farmland and shops? "

The soldiers looked at each other, and one of them said with confusion: "We can't defeat the demon soldiers. They can fly and set fire. We... only have three-headed unicorns."

"The demon soldiers can fly. We have bows and arrows. The demon soldiers can set fire. We can avoid them. Moreover, there are not many flying demons. Our enemies still come from the ground." Mu Xingqiu said.

"It can't be defeated. The demon soldiers are infinitely powerful and can do sorcery. One of them can't beat ten like me." The soldiers still didn't have much confidence.

"There are even fewer demon soldiers who know magic, and we also have Talisman Masters."

Liu Ding was not around, but he was still writing furiously in the arsenal, trying to write more paper talismans. The only request was a jar of fine wine. His energy and ability did boost some morale.

The soldiers were hesitating and weighing. In essence, they were still ordinary people and had no enthusiasm for war.

Shen Hao whispered: "Give them money."

Mu Xingqiu took out the cloth bag given to him by Lan Qizhang, raised it above his head, and whistled at the three-headed unicorn. This was supposed to be a way to summon horses. The unicorn actually understood the meaning of this sound. The little unicorn immediately ran over. The adult Kirin walked slowly with solemn steps.

The soldiers stepped aside and once again looked at the Qilin up close, they became more confident.

Not knowing whether the horses in Muma Valley could survive the monster attack, Mu Xingqiu forced himself to throw away this fruitless thought, took out a handful of gold and silver shavings from the bag, and fed it to the greedy horse. Little unicorn.

There was firelight in the military camp, and Mu Xingqiu's hand shone with light, attracting everyone's attention. The little unicorn stuck out its tongue and swept away half a handful of light.

Shen Hao admired Mu Xingqiu's quick wit, but he was also a little worried. Lan Qizhang clearly said that gold and silver shavings should be fed in the morning.

Two adult unicorns came over and blocked the little unicorn behind them. They did not allow it to eat anymore, and they did not eat it themselves. They just stared at Mu Xingqiu, as if accusing him of being too indulgent.

Mu Xingqiu continued to pour gold and silver shavings into his palms, not caring if they fell on the ground. He didn't stop until the pile on the ground far exceeded the capacity of the cloth bag, showing that it was no ordinary cloth bag. He put away the bag and put his palms away. After turning over, they all fell to the ground, and then clapped their hands, "For guarding Duanliu City, it is not only the people who are grateful to you, but also the royal family of King Xisuke. The prince himself is in the city. This is just something to feed Qilin. He has better things." of."

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the gold and silver shavings on the ground were blown away by the wind. Faced with such unreasonable squandering and waste, the soldiers who were farmers and traders were almost angry, and at the same time they were also very enthusiastic.

Captain Huang licked his lips, "Will the capital send reinforcements sooner or later?"

"The capital city is fighting against the main force of the demon army. This is the biggest support. We only need to fight a small number of demon soldiers. If a large group of demon soldiers really comes, reinforcements will come."

Mu Xingqiu nodded and touched the little unicorn. It ate all the gold and silver shavings it could swallow on the ground and in the air, and was sniffing around the human body, hoping to find some more.

"Will you join the war?" asked another soldier. They all have experience. The commander always incites people and then hides in the safe rear.

"We will be at the front." Mu Xingqiu didn't know how to organize troops. He only knew that if he wanted to gain trust and respect, he had to lead the way.

"Fight it."

"Isn't it just dozens or hundreds of demon soldiers? If the Xuanfu Army on the border can fight, so can we!"

The morale problem is partially solved. Now it was General Mu's turn to choose his men. There were nearly three hundred soldiers, nearly half of whom were old and weak. Rather than let them cause chaos on the battlefield. It's better to stay behind and perform other tasks.

Mu Xingqiu and Shen Hao selected a hundred soldiers. After handing it over to Captain Huang to regroup, they took Qilin to see the talisman master Liu Ding.

Candles burned in the hut. Liu Ding's eyebrows were furrowed, his sleeves rolled up high, and he was scribbling on the paper as if he was filled with deep hatred. The hand holding the pen moved quickly and slowly. Every time I finish writing the last stroke, I always have to think for a moment before picking up the pen. There were two veterans standing next to him. One was spreading paper and grinding ink for him, and the other was holding a wine bowl and bringing it to the Talisman Master's mouth from time to time.

"There are eighteen levels of talismans." Liu Ding heard the footsteps and didn't even look at them. "It depends on the degree of coherence of the talisman master's mind when writing. Of course, it is best to be consistent and solid as a rock. That is perfection. It's a pity that very few people can do it. Then there are one-cut, two-cut or even seventeen-cut talismans. If there are too many talismans, the written talisman will be useless. "

Liu Ding raised his head. His expression became more and more indignant, "I feel that I have at least written eleven talismans, but why did the Talisman Officer's evaluation say it was sixteen talismans? Eight years, a whole eight years, my crown has not increased by one level!"

Liu Ding pointed to the top of his head, and suddenly remembered that he had lost the talisman crown a long time ago. He couldn't help but sigh and put down his pen, "Let's stop here today. Writing any more is just a waste of paper. My mind is already confused. My mind is already confused. This is a taboo of the talisman master." ”

Shen Hao was a Taoist priest of the Discipline Department, and he immediately had a bad impression of this disheveled, alcoholic and arrogant Talisman Master.

"If you can't write, take a rest first." Mu Xingqiu walked over. He couldn't tell the quality of the talisman, he only cared about the quantity. "How many are there?"

"Fifty-four paper talismans commonly used by the Xuanfu army, thirty-one soldiers and armors, including ten demon-slaying swords and spears, that's it. There are no good things in Duanliu City. Pens, inks, paper and inkstones are the cheapest. I can't write them down. There are a few, but even if I can write the Perfection Talisman, it’s not very powerful.”

"This is already good. What we have to deal with are a group of ordinary demon soldiers. We don't need the perfection charm you mentioned for the time being."

Liu Ding put his hand on the table, and the expression on his face changed from indignation to sadness, "It's enough. This is also Long Binhui's idea. That's why we are reduced to this situation today. In such a huge Duanliu City, we can't find anyone." A few decent pieces of talisman armor, ugh.”

“Well said!” ”

Liu Ding was stunned and recognized that this was the prince he had met in Xiaoerbao a few years ago. When they set up an ambush to kill monsters together, he was not brave at all, and he was not as cynical as he is today. He knelt down and was supported by Xin Youtao.

"Your name is Liu Ding, right? Everything must be done with an opportunity. The demon soldiers' invasion of Xijie Kingdom may be an opportunity to save Longbinhui. Maybe a great cause will start in Duanliu City."

His Royal Highness the Prince's influence was much greater than that of the general. Liu Ding was filled with surprises, sometimes giving in and sometimes boasting, and was a little incoherent.

Xin Youtao happily accepted the Fu Lu Master's allegiance and ordered the two veterans to send Liu Ding back to his room to have a good rest.

There were no outsiders in the arsenal, Shen Hao shook his head, ka.c "You really don't adapt to this world. Do you have to learn to lie first in everything you do?"

Mu Xingqiu and Xin Youtao looked at each other. In less than a day, they had told several lies. Xin Youtao was much closer to Shen Hao than before, so he was not angry. He laughed and said, "That's not called Lying is called unfulfilled promises, Mu Xingqiu, I heard that you have made many such promises for the royal family of Xijie."

"Don't let me be a liar." Mu Xingqiu said with a smile. Although he is also a Taoist priest, he is not particularly disgusted with "the routine of the mortal world". "The royal family of Xijie will have to realize it in the future."

"Of course, Duanliu City is the territory of the Xijie Kingdom. Anyone who contributes to guarding it will be rewarded by the royal family." The 10,000 Zifu Army and the 20,000 Xuanfu Army were defeated by the demon soldiers eight hundred miles north of the capital. The Demon Fire Mountain continues to advance and will reach the capital tomorrow."

First, the Ancestor Peak was destroyed, and then the capital was in danger. Prince Xin Youtao suffered a double blow, but he seemed very calm, "This means that the demon army will soon divide its forces to capture various cities. Defending Duanliu City is not only a threat to the Pangshan Ancestral Tower." It is very important, and it may also be important to Xijie Country.”
