Daxianguan

Chapter 152
Zhenxi City is a large city in Liangzhou, named Zhenxi, which shows the importance of this city.In the Wushan area, Zhenxi City is the largest city, governing many surrounding counties, including Dinghai County.

Chu Xian went to Zhenxi City this time, just for two things.

The first thing is to write to the city government, asking the city government to order immediately to strengthen the defenses of all counties. Chu Xian knows that the monster race invasion is a foregone conclusion, so he has to think of a way to warn others. Of course, Chu Xian has done his homework on this point .

He sorted out the records of the demon clan activities in Dinghai County, including the surrounding counties, one by one, summarized and calculated, and came to the conclusion that the demon clan will inevitably invade in a large scale, so It is still too late to build defenses now.

This is one of them.

The second is to ask for money, things, and people.

Dinghai County ran out of silver. Although Chu Xian had ten thousand taels of silver sent by Hu Yanzong, he couldn't use it directly, and even if he took it all out, it would not be enough.

To build city walls, build arrow towers, recruit county troops, build armor and weapons, and train soldiers on the battlefield, all of them need money. How long can this ten thousand taels of silver last?

Therefore, Chu Xian must come to the town of Xicheng.

On this official trip, the clerk Xia Bozhong must be with him. After all, the clerk is the accountant in the county. He is in charge of money, so he must come.

In addition, he also brought a few county army guards, led by Qi Chengxiang, a total of four people, Luo Yong would follow him no matter what, the other party was born with supernatural powers, and he had achieved some small success in martial arts training these days, so he joined them Bring them to see the world, plus Chu Xian and Xia Bozhong, there are eight people in total.

It takes two days to go to Zhenxi City this way, and with the wind and snow, it is estimated that an extra day will be added.

On the first day, it went smoothly, with little wind and snow. In the afternoon of the second day, the snow intensified and the sky was getting darker. There was nothing I could do but find a ruined temple to rest.

Inside the ruined temple, the original Buddha statue had already been decapitated and knocked down. Although it was a mess and covered with dust, the roof was not exposed, the walls were not collapsed, and there was no problem in sheltering from the wind and snow.

At this time, Chu Xian recognized that the Buddha statue that had been pushed down on the ground was the orthodox deity of the Buddhist sect conferred by the Holy Dynasty. His brows were tightly frowned at that moment. No one believes in Buddhism, but those who believe in heretics and knock down Buddha statues must be believers of the Heavenly Buddha Sect."

Chu Xian nodded, and found a quiet place to sit down.

The foundation of Tianfomen in Liangzhou is too deep. Chu Xian knows that with his own strength, at most he can sweep the opponent's forces out of Dinghai County. As for other places in Liangzhou, Chu Xian is powerless now.

But it's not completely impossible.

Chu Xian has already thought of a way, but he must first solve the hidden dangers of the monster race and strengthen the county's defenses, otherwise, except for the Tianfomen, it will not help.

"My lord, there are no people living for more than a dozen miles around here. We can only rest here tonight. We will go on our way after dawn tomorrow." Qi Chengxiang walked in at this time, covered in snow. Behind him, four county soldiers held four The dry firewood and branches I found, in such a cold weather, it is impossible not to light a fire.

Luo Yong was wearing the clothes of the county army, and also had a steel knife on his waist. He was very majestic and excited at the moment.

In fact, Luo Fei also wanted to come, but was rejected by Chu Xian.

This time, I came out to do some business. Luo Yong is physically strong, and he practiced martial arts. Taking it out can be used for exercise, but Luo Fei is not good enough. She is weak. If she gets sick, it will be troublesome. After all, she couldn't get out of her body, so Chu Xian hardened her heart and rejected the lovely and pitiful Concubine Luo.

The fire started, and the sky outside had already darkened.

After eating the dry food that he brought with him, Chu Xian asked everyone to rest early. After two days of traveling, everyone was tired. The county soldiers were just ordinary people, and their physique could not be compared with Chu Xian and others. They were also asleep, only Qi Chengxiang, Chu Xian and Xia Bozhong were still awake.

Chu Xian didn't sleep because he had to seize the time to practice. He was getting closer and closer to the daylight out of his body, and he believed that he would be able to break through in one month at most.

Maybe even faster if given the chance.

Qi Chengxiang didn't sleep because he wanted to guard Chu Xian.

As for Xia Bozhong, he wanted to sort out all the matters of the county defense overnight, so that he was fully prepared when he went to Zhenxi City Mansion.

In the middle of the night, the wind outside the door stopped.

The field is silent, even the chirping of night owls cannot be heard, all that can be heard is the crackling sound of burning firewood.

At this time, Chu Xian suddenly opened his eyes, with a cold expression on his face, and Qi Chengxiang, who had been sitting cross-legged practicing internal skills, also sat up suddenly, holding a knife in his hand.

In the back, Xia Bozhong has fallen asleep leaning against the pillar.

Chu Xian got up at this time, covered Luo Yong and Xia Bozhong with blankets, then glanced at Qi Chengxiang, and signaled him not to disturb other people.

Qi Chengxiang nodded.

"My lord, I'll go out and have a look." Qi Chengxiang drew his knife in his hand at this time, and seeing Chu Xian nodding, he turned out of the window like a civet cat, and his figure disappeared into the snow and night at the outer door.

Chu Xian waited for a while, and then Qi Chengxiang came back.

It can be seen that Qi Chengxiang's face is solemn, the steel knife in his hand is stained with blood, dripping on the snow, it is extremely red.

"There are assassins outside, and their skills are not bad. I injured one, and the others used crossbow arrows to force me back." After Qi Chengxiang finished speaking, Chu Xian signaled to the other party that he knew.

"Protect the Dharma for me!" Chu Xian only said one sentence, and Qi Chengxiang knew what to do. He stood in front of Chu Xian with a knife in his hand.

As soon as he came out of his body, Chu Xian saw a few bright lights flashing by, but he was not in a hurry, and immediately cast the spell, the snow falling on the ground suddenly exploded, sweeping out a wave of wind and snow, flying out in all directions, blocking those Refined.

Hearing the clanging sound, Qi Chengxiang looked down and saw that there were a few black iron nails.

Obviously, if Chu Xian moved a little slower just now, or if his technique was not good, both he and Chu Xian would be pierced by the iron nail.

The next moment, there was a sound of breaking through the air.

Qi Chengxiang knew that most of the sound of piercing the air was aimed at Chu Xian, so he immediately drew his knife and swept out a blade light, blocking all the hidden weapons that came, and the sound of the blade hitting the iron nail was endless.

This time, the four sleeping county soldiers, Luo Yong and Xia Bozhong, all woke up, but they obviously didn't know what happened.

Qi Chengxiang's feet were already covered with iron nails. If he hadn't resisted with all his strength just now, not only himself, but also Chu Xian behind him would have been bound into a honeycomb by the iron nails.

But at the same time as he resisted the hidden weapon, four black-clothed warriors suddenly rushed in from the window, the door, and the beam, all with knives in hand and agile.

The four killers went directly to Chu Xian without the slightest hesitation, like tigers descending from the mountain.

Qi Chengxiang gripped the handle of the knife tightly and charged at the four without hesitation.

Four people, four knives, if you don't pay attention, you may let the other party chop Chu Xian. Qi Chengxiang shot with all his strength at this moment, his muscles tensed up, and he bounced up violently, kicking the killer who fell on the top of his head. Hitting the opponent's chest, he kicked the opponent four or five meters away. At the same time, he slashed horizontally with his backhand, blocking the slashes of the two killers in front of him, and another one slashed at Chu Xian from the side. In a critical moment, Qi Chengxiang used his feet Jin, he threw out the scabbard with a flick of his hand, and hit the opponent's wrist. The force was not small, disintegrating the opponent's attack, and then he drew the knife to cut across.

With a bang, the severed hand fell to the ground holding the steel knife.

This attack and defense was extremely fast, compared with martial arts, eyesight and reaction, Qi Chengxiang was one against four, not only blocked the opponent's ultimate move, but also seriously injured one person.

However, these killers are not simple, if they miss a hit, they don't retreat, but attack again.

Seeing the light of the saber, the steel saber in Qi Chengxiang's hand sometimes poked straight, sometimes slashed horizontally, sometimes opened and closed, and sometimes lightly kneaded.

At this time, Luo Yong was the first to react and immediately drew his sword to help. The four county soldiers woke up with a start and followed closely behind.

This time, our own team had the upper hand, but the martial arts of the four county troops were ordinary. Although they besieged a killer together, they were still killed by one killer. A killer fights with Luo Yong. Although Luo Yong's moves are ordinary and unremarkable, he wins because of his natural supernatural power. He only fights with the opponent. After only two blows, the knife edges of both sides burst. Terrified.

The boy on the opposite side, although he slashed and killed randomly, but his strength was too great. Every time he slashed, it was as if a millstone was thrown at him. After only two strokes, he had no power to continue. He only felt severe pain in his arm. I can't even lift it up.

At this moment, Qi Chengxiang took a step forward and slapped the assassin on the chest, causing the latter to fall to the ground and die.

In a few breaths, three killers died, and there was one alive. Qi Chengxiang chopped off his wrist and one of his legs. He was half dead. He wanted to interrogate him, but when he stepped forward, he found that this person had committed suicide by taking poison. .

"Dead man!"

Qi Chengxiang frowned. He naturally knew that once this kind of killer failed, he would try to commit suicide to ensure that he would not be captured alive, so he would not be able to ask anything useful.

From the beginning to the end, Chu Xian did not move, sitting cross-legged on the ground, he did not participate in the fight in the ruined temple, because Chu Xian trusted Qi Chengxiang, and he knew that Qi Chengxiang would protect him no matter what.

At this moment, outside the ruined temple, several screams could be faintly heard. Some of them might be just outside the door, and some sounded like they were hundreds of steps away. These screams lasted for a while, and then suddenly disappeared.

Everything is at peace.

Obviously, Chu Xian was making a move outside, and the next moment, Chu Xian returned to his body. At this moment, his face was a little pale. After all, it was Xue Ye who came out of his body to cast spells, and this time he really experienced a big battle.

It wasn't until Qi Chengxiang and Luo Yong ran out of the ruined temple and looked outside that they were stunned.

They thought before that the fighting inside the ruined temple was already dangerous and extremely fierce, but looking outside the ruined temple now, the fighting in the ruined temple just now is really not worth mentioning.

At the outer gate of the ruined temple, first of all, a ring of burning arrows surrounded the ground around the ruined temple. Judging from the number, there must be hundreds of them, but none of these arrows shot within three feet of the ruined temple.

It seemed that something blocked all these arrows.
