Chapter 186 The Wind and the Clouds Rising Arrow

Under the walls of the inner city of Yunxia City, dozens of teenagers were panting and sweating profusely.

After Yue Wenhan arrived at the designated meeting point, he did not immediately slump down on the ground like Tiedan.

He wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked around cautiously.

Most of the people who caught my eye were boys, only three or four girls.

Most of them were fifteen or sixteen years old, and everyone's face had turned black and red from the wind and sun for the past five or six days.

Most of the people arrived at the inner city wall, sat down, drank water, panted heavily, clustered together in groups of three or five.

The Yunqi Battalion wanted to recruit a preparatory camp, and there were quite a few people who came here admiringly.Among them were some rich and noble children from good families. In order to avoid the hardships of the long journey, some of them used their brains and gave money to the responsible bronze helmet knights.

Some people even directly sent spirit pills or even spirit weapons.

Along the way, there were also some people who received explicit and secret guidance and successfully became the top fifty.

On the eighth day of the selection, a total of 78 people arrived at the inner city wall.

Among the 78 people, forty were from Songping Chiyuan area, the remaining twenty sporadically came from other places in Xiaoqi Kingdom, and the rest were people from neighboring countries like Yue Wenhan.

Although Yue Wenhan and Tie Dan got Agui's two bottles of Lingsu, they kept their expenses in moderation along the way, but their physical strength could barely cope with the trek across the plains.

It's just that the two of them were unlucky. When they were approaching Yunxia City, they encountered two wilderness jackals with wind attributes.

On the empty wasteland, the wild jackals were as fast as wind blades. If Yue Wenhan hadn't broken through the acquired state in the early days, the lives of the two would have been lost by the jackals.

Agui's leg was injured, and Yue Wenhan's hand was also injured.

The two supported each other and rushed to Yunxia City. Like the other boy, they both ranked No. 70 and eighth.

"78 people, there's nothing left to do. Find a place to heal your wounds first." The wounds of the two were treated briefly, and as they ran along the road, they healed and then split apart, excruciatingly painful.

Tie Dan was aggrieved, their luck was really bad, he inquired, and among the 78 people, only seven or eight encountered monsters.Why do they carry it like that?

"Wait a little longer," Yue Wenhan was not discouraged, he noticed that the dozen or so warriors riding the black cloud cavalry got off their horses.

When dismounting, the copper armor clanged in unison, but the dozen or so people looked as if they were one.

Nearly a hundred people gathered outside the inner city.

The inner city of Yunxia City is built on a slope like a long snake. It is a complete stone building. There is not a single wooden beam in the whole city.

This city is one of the oldest buildings on Songping Chiyuan, and the only ancient building that has not been blown down by Chiyuan's red knife wind.

From the highest point of the inner city, looking down, one can see the outer city of Yunxia City, which was built a hundred years ago.

The outer city and the inner city are connected by a three-mile-long winding mountain road.The outer city is hundreds of times larger than the inner city.

The people in the outer city were not allowed to enter the inner city at will. When this group of teenagers recruited for the Xiaoqi camp entered the inner city, each of them got a wooden token.Wooden tokens can only enter and exit the inner city once.

Yunxia City was handed over to Princess Chongyun by the former emperor before his death. As the princess who protects the country, Yunxia City is like a pinnacle of Dinghai when monsters are about to move around and enemy countries are staring at them.

And Princess Chongyun, who has ruled Yunxia City for 50 years, is also a figure on the tip of the sword in Xiaoqi Country.

Songping Chiyuan was built stone by stone with the [-] warriors led by Wang Gang from the Xiaoqi Kingdom when he fled to Songping Chiyuan.

After 200 years of wind and rain, the walls of this city have left countless traces of weathering from fighting against nature.

The highest part of the city wall is thirty feet high, even if a congenital expert arrives here, they can only enter through the city gate.

This city gate is made of a piece of natural rock with an unknown thickness, and nearly a hundred defensive magic circles are carved on it.

After the dozen or so bronze helmeted knights got off their horses, their helmets looked at the city gate in unison, and they shouted in a deep voice, "Princess."

The door sounded "rumbling", and the first thing Yue Wenhan heard was the sound of water.

Behind the city gate, there is actually a moat.

The gap in the door gradually widened, the silver light flickered, and a group of silver-helmed knights formed a row of six or six, like the sharpest arrows, piercing the pupils of every boy.

Without exception, they all wore third-grade silver battle armor made of glacial white elephant skin, and wore owl riding boots made of crocodile snakes.

All are silver-helmed knights, without exception.Acquired, Xiantian, bronze helmets, silver helmets. Princess Chongyun, the lord of Yunxia City, rides down, and there are so many silver helmeted knights.

The teenagers were all dumbfounded, and there was a hint of deceit in the eyes of a few of them that didn't match their age.

Behind the silver helmet, a golden light, like a blazing sun in a cloudy sky, shot over.

A tall and glamorous woman, wearing a gold leaf dress that showed her curves, made her figure even more slim.

That gold leaf suit is the proof of the strong, the man is the helmet and the woman is the armor, a warrior with a golden helmet.That is equivalent to the existence of golden core among cultivators.

If Yeshu was also in the inner city at this time, she would definitely be surprised, because Princess Chongyun also broke through after seeing her in January.

No one present dared to look directly at the cold and beautiful woman.Her whole body exudes power, that is the royal family, and only the emperor has the power.

The old Xiaoqi King once said in front of the old courtiers that among his more than ten children, only Chongyun was the most similar to his temperament, but it was a pity that she was a woman.

"When you see the princess, you still don't bow down," one of the dozen or so bronze-helmed knights ran out of the queue and shouted.

Among the more than 70 young men and women, half of them knelt down immediately, and then a few more knelt down.

Yue Wenhan frowned slightly, supported the iron egg, and knelt down.

"Princess Tianwei, thousand years old, thousand years old," eight days of experience changed the boyish voices of the teenagers.Their shouts were like the icy wind that was about to blow up on the Songping Chiyuan, with a hint of chill.

Almost at the same time, everyone's knees were straight, and they were lifted up in a kneeling position.

that power?

"You are all good sons and daughters of my Xiaoqi country. I have worked hard for you these eight days," Princess Chongyun said in a mellow yet majestic voice.

Yue Wenhan stared at his knees, which were stretched like javelins.

Even though his head was lowered, he could feel two powerful gazes passing over his head, and those two gazes carried a sense of scrutiny.

It seems to be able to see people clearly from the inside out.

Princess Chongyun paused for a moment, "Feng Yun, what's the result of this preliminary selection, and how many preparatory campers have been selected?"

"Princess, in these eight days, a total of 300 people participated in the selection, more than 150 people quit halfway, 140 people encountered monsters, [-] of them died, and [-] people were injured. A total of [-] people arrived in the inner city within [-] days. juvenile."

"That's right, it's better than expected," Princess Chongyun praised slightly.

Those teenagers who were among the top [-] after hearing the praise were all complacent and puffed out their chests.

As for the remaining [-] teenagers, they felt regretful.

150 people encountered the monster, and 140 of them died. The iron egg, who was still complaining about his bad luck, immediately fell silent.If it weren't for Wen Han, he might have become a dead bone eaten by wild beasts in the wasteland.

"Cheng Gang, announce the information you have collected in the past few days," Chong Yun praised, and with a wave of his hand, a middle-aged man walked out from among the silver-helmed knights.

Unlike other silver-helmed knights, this man had an eagle standing on his back.

"Princess Yin" said the middle-aged man loudly, every time he said a word, several of the teenagers present changed their faces.

The wind is rustling, but the sun in June already feels scorching hot, like needles on the back, and the teenagers are dripping with cold sweat.

Among the 80 people, 11 people bribed the black cloud knight and got a shortcut route.Nine people violated the regulations by carrying animal repelling incense.

Among the 80 people, 20 people were cut off at once.

Such a turn of events made all the teenagers feel sad and happy, especially among the 30 people who were behind, they couldn't help but feel happy.

Tie Dan still looked listless, even if 20 people went, he and Yue Wenhan were still not on the list.

Yue Wenhan didn't feel overly sad or happy, he just looked at the eagle on the man's shoulder.That man must be a powerful spirit beast master. There were no sentries and no one to follow along the way, and only a spirit eagle could clearly record everyone's behavior.

This middle-aged man is not simple, and Princess Chongyun, who knows how to know people and be good at responsibility, is even more so.

Yue Wenhan raised his head boldly, and met Princess Chongyun's cold eyes.

Those eyes were like knives and cones, looking straight at the bronze helmeted knights who violated the law.The murderous aura filled the air, making people shudder.

"Princess," three people in Hei Cong Yunqi knelt down and kowtowed their heads like pounding garlic. Their eyes were blinded by excrement for a while, so they dared to accept the property.

"There are so many princesses, I can accommodate all of you," the silver-helmed knights shouted mightily.

"Death!!" After accepting the property, their fate turned out to be death.

The three looked at each other, seeing despair in each other's eyes.

The three of them pulled out their sabers and came out together: "Thank you Princess for your kindness, this subordinate deserves to die."

Chi Chi Chi, three blood rainbows rushed past, splashing the terracotta all over the ground.

The three good men who were still incomparably mighty turned into three corpses in an instant.

Princess Chongyun waved her hand: "It's good to arrange for their families."

In just an instant, three lives were lost.

When those teenagers were surprised, their faces turned pale.

"Princess, among the 80 people, eight more people released Fu He on the way, and two got other people's elixir," said the man named Cheng Gang.

Suddenly, Yin Guangrulian, Yue Wenhan, Tie Dan, and eight other teenagers were surrounded by the Silver Knights.

22
The faces of the ten teenagers changed drastically.

Tie Dan couldn't help leaning towards Yue Wenhan.

Yue Wenhan only felt the white light of the scorching sun shining on his forehead.

From time to time, sweat dripped down against the forehead, fell into the eyes, was hot, and fell into the mouth, a fishy and salty smell, like blood.

His throat rolled, swallowing the few drops of blood-like sweat into his stomach.

The young man closest to him plopped and knelt down on the ground, "Princess, please forgive me. That talisman crane was sent home by a small one to report safety to the family. It has no other intentions." At the age of three or four, he kept nodding his head, and soon a red mark appeared on his forehead.

"Family letter?" Cheng Gang's silver helmet shook, and the exquisitely polished silver pieces on the helmet beeped and fluctuated, like countless small silver knives, "A letter sent to Jiuyou Country? The family letter will also write the defense of Songping Chiyuan It's clear." A restricted talisman bird was thrown in front of the boy.

The young man was dumb, and his kowtow stopped.

Cheng Gang's spirit eagle is called the Nine Sky Eagle, and it is extremely ferocious. Under its claws, not to mention the Fuhe or the teleportation talisman bird that is a thousand times more sensitive, it cannot escape.

The bronze helmeted knight stepped forward and dragged the boy into the city. Behind the dense stone gate, no one knew what was waiting for the boy?
"Princess Qi, Luo Feng, a member of the Xia Xiaoqi National Rong City, was originally a martial artist in the Weiyuan Martial Arts Hall. He heard that the princess wanted to recruit the Yunqi Battalion, so he came here to participate. The Fuhe letter was a letter of safety sent back to the sect. Please also ask the princess to be careful," a well-mannered young man calmed down and bowed forward.

He is about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a broad forehead and thick eyebrows. Yue Wenhan also has some impressions of this young man. He is a little ahead of himself and Tie Dan.About No. 60 rushed to the inner city.

If it was really a spy from another country, he would definitely try his best in the competition, and he would definitely not fall to the [-]th place.

Even Yue Wenhan felt that this person was innocent, but instead of worrying about others, Wenhan felt that he should be more worried about his own safety.

Twelve silver-helmed knights, each of them is an aggressive knight with a sky-splitting ax on his shoulders.
"Weiyuan martial arts gym, this martial arts gym is quite famous in the Moon City," Princess Chongyun heard the boy's explanation, and Cheng Gang opened the boy's talisman crane again.

The text recorded in the Talisman Crane is indeed a standard letter of safety, and there is nothing to criticize.

Princess Chongyun's complexion was a little pale, with a bit of amiability, she stepped forward and stretched out her right hand, which was like a jade carving, on the boy's shoulder, and patted lightly, "That's right."

The young man smiled slightly, but suddenly his shoulders collapsed like mud after drinking water.

The smile on the young man's face has not faded, and the joy and horror in his eyes are like ice and fire.

"Your bone age is already thirty, and you are at the peak of innateness. No matter how well you conceal it, it will be in vain," said Princess Chongyun's hands, which were left with cherry red long armor. , all tattooed with a glass bead.

Just by looking at it, one can tell that the master usually takes care of his hand, but at this moment, it is like a vine with countless thorns.

Piercing into the boy's clothes, the extremely hard iron bones of the martial artist were crushed bit by bit like a clod picked up casually on the Songping Chiyuan.

Eyes turned red, Tie Dan jumped up with a wow, blood spurted out from the boy's head, neck and shoulders like a fountain.

It was hot and scalding, and when it fell on the human skin, it was like molten iron, and it also burned Yue Wenhan's eyes and face red.

The pain caused the consciousness of the "martial artist" pretending to be a teenager to collapse, and he howled, "You can't, I am I am."

In his throat, a stream of blood blocked his defense.

Princess Chongyun leaned into his ear: "I know, you were sent by the emperor, so what, this is Songping Chiyuan."

The death of this young man from Zheyue City was extremely miserable, and all his bones were crushed.

The whole skin was limp on the ground like a puddle of rotten paste.

Under the inner city, the teenagers were divided into two groups.

One pile was the fifty youths selected by Queping to enter the Xiaoqi Battalion.

And the other group, to be precise, were two teenagers gathered together like frightened quails.

Tie Dan wanted to say something, but panic made his throat and eyes go numb.

Princess Chongyun let go, without looking at Tie Dan and Yue Wenhan, "It's cleaned up."

She is upright by nature, and Yunqiying is the talent she wants to focus on cultivating. These young people can be ruthless, cunning and treacherous, but they cannot be opportunistic or have a different heart.

"Slow," a clean and loud voice came out from the silver-helmed knight.

After going through such a test of life and death, after witnessing such a tragic situation, he can still intervene in such a calm voice, this young man has a strong heart.

Princess Chongyun turned her head and saw a square face. She was about 12 years old and tall.

"You have seen his fate, the more he defends, the worse his death will be," Princess Chongyun pointed at the messy pile of human flesh.

"My adoptive father once said that among the heroes of the world, Princess Chongyun is the real emperor who can make Xiaoqi country strong." It also changed his complexion.

Although the princess is under one person and above ten thousand people, her superior is the current Xiaoqi King.

This young man was also so bold that he dared to say such words in front of everyone.

In Princess Chongyun's eyes, a dark glow appeared obscurely, and she didn't stop Yue Wenhan from continuing.

The young man moistened his throat, "Father praised you as the emperor, not because the princess has amazing cultivation, but because the princess knows how to use people well, and is able to stretch and bend. With the strength of one person, she guarded Songping Chiyuan alone for 50 years."

"Chongyun inherits the kindness of the late emperor. Guarding the important places is a matter of duty. It's just that you borrowed the good medicine and participated in the selection. During the selection, you used such a trick. When you become a member of Yunqi, you will not What will happen?" Princess Chongyun snapped.Before the selection, there were repeated orders and repeated orders not to use any tricks. These two teenagers committed a crime knowingly, which is also a felony.If it is in the military camp, it must be dealt with by military law.

Yue Wenhan did not back down, he took a step forward and said loudly: "Dare to ask the princess, how have the defenders of Songping Chiyuan guarded Chiyuan for hundreds of years?"

"According to the dangers of geography, use the strategy of a military strategist to take the best soldiers and horses, and embrace them," Princess Chongyun didn't pay attention to the two young men just now. Among the teenagers, they are not very eye-catching, and secondly, they look tired, and they are not the top ones among the teenagers.

"The princess said that she missed it, and borrowed the benefits of monsters. Just now, Mr. Cheng also said that more than 100 people were attacked and killed. If Wen Han's guess is correct, these monsters were also arranged by the princess in Chiyuan Come on." Yue Wenhan spoke sharply, but he calculated the arrangement of the princess clearly. The knights saw that he was only a young man, and dared to be so rude to the princess. They all grind their teeth and wanted to kill the kid.

Yue Wenhan also blushed when he said that, today is just a fight to the death, the head is like garlic, and the body is like mud, so it is better to spit out all the words in the chest, and try to die happily.

"It was a chance for the founder of the Xiaoqi Kingdom to be able to fend off monsters and beasts. Tie Dan and I met a nobleman on the way, and it was also a chance to be given the elixir. It is also a chance for soldiers to attack cities and conquer territories, and for a man to plan a great cause. Today, if the princess wants to use an unfounded name to bear our blood of loyalty to the monarch and serving the country, it will be a disharmony, and those who lose peace will lose the hearts of the people, and those who lose the hearts of the people will lose the world." After Yue Wenhan finished speaking, he heard a violent cry. Drink, among the iron helmet knights, a big ax has been hacked.

The sound of the ax was like thunder and lightning, and before it hit him, a blow of the ax was split on his face.

Tie Dan turned pale with fright, and shouted: "Wenhan, good brother, you live and die, I will fight with them," Tie Dan swung his head and slammed into the nearest silver-helmet knight.

"Slow down," Princess Chongyun flicked her fingers, and that plain hand had already clamped the big ax for splitting gold and gravel.

The bloody ax that was about to fall on Yue Wenhan's forehead landed half an inch away.

"Who are you from?" Princess Chongyun smiled.

Yue Wenhan stood like a pine and cypress, and when the ax fell, he did not dodge or dodge, his eyes never blinking.

That idiot Tie Dan let out an ahhh, he just felt his head hit the hard helmet, and suddenly he felt that his eyes were full of stars, and he had been lifted up by his waist.

The silver-helmed knight also snorted, and a concave surface was knocked out on his silver helmet.This kid's head is really powerful.

Those silver-helmed knights couldn't help laughing either. Of these two teenagers, one was as hard as a rock and the other was mischievous. They weren't annoying.

"Under Yue Wenhan, the boy with me is named Tie Mingdan, and his ancestral home is Xiaoqi Country. His ancestors were one of the five hundred famous Xiaoqi." Rolling down his jaw, he took out the letter of recommendation that he smoothed out from his arms.

He knew that he had moved Princess Chongyun.

"It turned out to be the son of an old friend, the iron cavalry guard, who was once one of the top ten personal guards of the Taizu King." Princess Chongyun took the letter, read it carefully, and pawed her head again.

"These two stay," Princess Chongyun said with one word, deciding the future of Yue Wenhan and Tie Dan.

When Tie Dan heard it, the barking that was still screaming immediately turned into a smirk.

Only then did Yue Wenhan raise his hand, wiped it on his forehead, and for the first time since leaving Sui Yun, he smiled comfortably.

"Princess?" The young man who arrived at the same time as Yue Wenhan and Tie Dan turned pale with fright. If they were excluded, he would just be eligible to be selected for the Yunqi Preparatory Camp, but if they were selected, what would he do? ?
"You? It's just that you don't have enough luck." Princess Chongyun was in a good mood, but she stopped back with Yue Wenhan's old saying, "If you are alone, and the two of them swear their allegiance to the death, if you were me, how would you choose?" ?”
