Chapter 167: Lantern

Everyone agreed that the main purpose of this battle was to solve Liang Danhuo. As for An Lushan, it was beyond the scope of everyone's ability. But now, at least as far as the Exorcist Division knows, the heart demons still There has never been a real chance to play.
The past was full of monsters such as snakes, bear demon, wine-colored wealth and Liang Danhuo, collecting food for him, that is, living or dead tribute. Li Jinglong also thought about this question-why did An Lushan not play?
There must be a reason for this, but because of their inner feelings, they are not yet clear. When Li Jinglong read the ancient documents in the Exorcism Division of Luoyang, he got some possible explanation from it: Heavenly Tribulation. The change of the unjust soul between heaven and earth, one dead, one living, the birth of soul, death, transformation, demonization, and demonization, are all closely related to the veins of heaven and earth.
Legend has it that the monsters' mass killing will lead to heaven's punishment, that is, thunder robbery. If they cannot survive the thunder robbery, they will be extinguished. And Jiao wants to become a dragon and breaks through some kind of prohibition, which will also lead to Heaven Tribulation. Once the prisoner was carefully deployed in Chang'an, step by step, and this is precisely the reason.
But no one had seen the Sky Tribulation, and I did n’t know what to do before they passed Lei Chi. So Li Jinglong speculated that either the prison or the Anlu Mountain would try to avoid unnecessary trouble. Try not to touch a certain line.
This line is: directly kill a large number of mortals.
As for the amount, no matter whether it is the exorcism division, the enemy, or even Di Renjie, it is impossible to estimate an accurate number. So An Shi joined forces with the rebellion, used mortals to slaughter mortals, and then sucked the anger, it was always safe. In other words, those who can kill mortals will never let monsters kill. If the monster can kill, An Lushan will never do it himself.
"Our purpose is to force Anlu Mountain." Li Jinglong analyzed for a long time, and finally said, "Except Liang Danhuo, the army withdrew to Tongguan, and the rebels could withdraw to Luoyang."
"What's Liang Danhuo's weakness?" Asnaqiong looked at Artest. Of the few people, only Artest had formally dealt with her. Moreover, this guy is really the most difficult to deal with. It will release blood mist to kill people, even if they kill, they will fly, even if they were not so troublesome to Wu Qiyu.
"How did the blood pool break?" Atay suddenly remembered the past, neither Qiong nor Lu Xu had participated in the war to subdue Wu Qiyu.
Li Jinglong suddenly found a strange connection between the two. Will the blood pool created by Wu Qiyu be related to Liang Danhuo? What is happening now seems to be an invisible giant web, intricate and interrelated.
"Five-color Divine Light." Li Jinglong replied, "Later broke with a heart lamp."
"When blooming into a blood mist, she is hidden in the mist." Lu Xu said, "If you can see her body, with the magic weapon may give her a fatal blow."
"I hope Zhao Zilong can bring back useful news." Li Jinglong said helplessly, "That's all."
Li Jinglong always wanted to wait for the night to come, so that Lu Xu would take himself to Saibei, but Gao Xianzhi ordered an urgent march. If they did not keep up, they would soon be left behind. In addition, Li Jinglong's body was still not recovering, and the riding speed was already behind.
"Heart lamp can get rid of it." Lu Xu said.
In the dark night, after a short break, the large army was promoted again.
"Yes." Li Jinglong has been very tired. Marching day after day has made his body pain unbearable. The lack of sleep makes him more upset. Lu Xuzema, keep up with Artest, protect him from left to right.
Lu Xu suddenly said: "Heart lamp is still in your body, Jing Long."
Li Jinglong smiled bitterly: "Lu Xu, don't comfort me anymore."
Lu Xu suddenly said: "Why don't you believe it? Because your heart is shaking?"
In the Exorcism Division, only Lu Xu knew everything hidden in Li Jinglong's heart, but Artest heard it in his ear but did not leave, but followed silently.
"It's not that I don't believe it." Li Jinglong suddenly said, "Even if I believe it now, what good is it for us to win the battle? You tell me that the heart lamp is still on me, I can't even pull the bow, and hold this broken Sword, rushed to Anlu Mountain to die, at that time, the heart lamp will come out to protect me? "
Lu Xu said nothing.
"I also hope that a miracle will appear." Li Jinglong said, "But in fact, every time I pin hope on a miracle, it will never look after me. Later I thought, I don't expect miracles anymore, I rely on my head office "It's all right?" Said with a bitter smile: "But even if it's the whole thing, it will eventually be the most fatal blow at the most critical time."
There was only the sound of a horseshoe in the night, and Asnaqiong suddenly said, "I'm heading down the road."
Asnaqiong went away, and in the dark, Artest said slowly: "When it comes to the blood demon, and the blood pool, I suddenly remembered something."
Li Jinglong didn't answer in silence, and Artest said: "The people who were there when the heart lamp was first released are not here now, but I remember that you all talked about it afterwards. When you got out of trouble, it all relied on your burst of power ... … "
Lu Xu once listened to Hong Jun's brief mention, but it was not detailed.
"Yes." Li Jinglong said in a deep voice, "It's like another world when I think of it now."
He moved forward without any trouble, looking towards the dark distance, as if it were a road with no future, leading to boundless despair and abyss.
He remembered the reason for the sudden burst of heart lights that day, and he knew clearly.
Hong Jun was strangled by the monster at the back of the neck. A dagger rested on his ear. He sank into the blood pool, helpless, and watched the monster cut Hong Jun's ear. Hong Jun was extremely painful, with tears in his eyes, as if begging for mercy, and as if calling his patron saint, recalling his emotions at that time, Li Jinglong only felt that there was a force erupting deep inside.
"I only have one thought." Li Jinglong said, "Guard him, even if he is crushed."
Lu Xu hesitated and said: "Then ... After he came back, his ears were cut again?"
"Can this be the same?" Li Jinglong said unbearably.
Artest said: "One night, Trento told me that she guessed the reason why the heart lamp no longer appeared ..."
Li Jinglong couldn't help but think about the moment in the blood pool. When Hong Jun was suffering in front of him, he finally awakened the heart lamp, but just before obtaining this power, in the short interval of the electric light and stone fire, he seemed to default a certain fact That is, he has always been the patron saint of Hong Jun.
As if destiny destined him to be a certain general, the purpose of coming to the mortal world was to protect Hongjun, but they never saw each other, and all their memories were sealed. When a certain scene appeared in front of him, the seal was finally completely broken, and the heart lamp became a part of his soul.
"... I see." Li Jinglong replied.
The moment when the heart lamp appeared was born because of Hongjun; the moment when the heart lamp disappeared was also died because of Hongjun.
Li Jinglong finally figured out at this moment, it is no longer important whether Xindeng admits himself or not. In fact, Xindeng never admits him. This way of dispersing the dark light is only due to Hong Jun.
He needed him, and in a flash, the glare rushed out.
"The reason for losing the heart lamp is ..." Li Jinglong said, "I think Hong Jun may not need me anymore."
This is the most painful thing from the beginning to the end, and it is also his demon.
"Why?" Artest said.
"Why?" Lu Xu replied.
Li Jinglong stood still, staring silently ahead. Artest said: "Recover your original feeling."
"It's difficult." Li Jinglong said, "You don't know me ..."
"Because our hard work in the future is to make him a demon and completely dissipate in this world?" Lu Xu said, "That's why it's necessary to avoid all this from happening, doesn't it? Great Wolf also said so, he You cannot suffer for the lives of this world, and no one must be born to do so. "
Li Jinglong took a deep breath, and Artest said, "As long as you think, if you can no longer summon a heart lamp, Hong Jun will have to give her life and die for us, which is enough."
Although Hong Jun was not around, Li Jinglong instantly remembered countless past events, familiar emotions surging in his chest.
"Maybe he will hate me." Li Jinglong said, "but I still hope he is alive."
Lu Xu and Arte glanced at each other, and did not answer again. Li Jinglong was still on the horse. After a long silence, the rapid horseshoe broke the silent night.
Asnaqiong hurriedly held up a torch in his hand and said, "I see a camp in front!"
During the night, there was a riot in the marching team that was not noticeable. The two sides were bounded by the river. The camp of Anlu Mountain was nearly ten miles closer than the scouts!
The intelligence error caused the march to lose its lead. Fortunately, the rebels did not find their trail. Gao Xianzhi had passed a military order in front. The whole army took an attack formation, and the forward team took a short break. With the order of the owl arrow, they focused on the attack and set fire on the enemy camp .
In the dark night when no fingers were reached, the carp demon crawled ashore wetly, unable to tremble. It pulled a square cloth around his head and looked around. When he walked a few steps, he was surprised and saw the monsters. Encamp.
This time the camp actually stayed so close? ! The carp demon seemed to understand something, and he watched between the tents. At that time, I saw a huge tent in the middle of the forest camp. The defense was very tight. The patrol guards were everywhere. The account was brightly lit for a moment.
"What is this? I haven't seen it last time." The carp demon said to himself.
The carp demon tried to approach the tent. It folded its hands and lay on the ground on the side, gently moved. Just after a spring rain, the ground was very wet, and the fish was full of mud. It looked like the ground. In the night, the patrol guards did not notice his feet.
The carp demon so slowly approached the tent step by step, approached the edge of the tent, and squeezed in along the gap between the big tent and the ground. The fish scale was accidentally hung by the side of the tent, and two or three pieces were scraped off.
Liang Danhuo held an ancient wooden dagger and stood in front of a giant bird. The giant bird was covered with human skin. Under the translucent skin, it was full of flesh and blood.
Liang Danhuo drew his daggers full of runes, and there was a green light in the runes. She recited the mantra in her mouth. Suddenly the giant bird lit up and followed her. The carp demon screamed in his heart. After Liang Danhuo cast his spell, he was exhausted. His naked red flesh and blood all dried up, obviously consuming too much mana.
Immediately behind him, a demon came and flatly supported Liang Danhuo. Liang Danhuo staggered and walked out of the tent. Before leaving, he said, "Keep here, don't let anyone come in."
No one can come in, but he didn't say that the demon could not come in, the carp demon thought. After Liang Danhuo left, there was no demon in the tent. The carp demon carefully walked towards the giant bird and circled around it. I saw that the demon bird was covered with human skin, the wings were half open, and the bird's head was unbearable The bird's bones are covered with human skin, like a huge leather kite.
The skin is still full of tattoo runes, and there are several skin carp demon recognized, but the skin that Liang Danhuo replaced in the past-looks like a powerful monster prepared by the rebels, if you can put the skin on the wings Break through, maybe it won't fly.
In the dark night, Tang Jun hangs in front of the woods, facing the stream. Opposite the stream is the endless plain of Shaanxi County. On the plain is the 50,000 garrison of Anlu Mountain.
Gao Xianzhi ordered to ambush and prepare for a sneak attack. On this trip, there were tens of thousands of people, and they rushed out of the army, and the fire camp was set up, which might surprise the enemy by surprise. But just across the stream, there was darkness between the camps, and there was no bonfire. The camp was like a monster that was eaten by people, and there was a whisper in the darkness.
"Should not fail." Lu Xu whispered, "If this fails, Tang Jun will not fight anymore."
In the months since Luoyang ’s westward withdrawal, Tang Jun has been defeated and defeated repeatedly. He surrendered or collapsed along the way. Lu Xu followed Ge Shuhan and had never seen such an abandoned army.
"No way." Li Jinglong frowned anxiously and replied, "They are all militiamen temporarily recruited from the city, and even the armor can't be matched, which is incomparable with your frontier army."
"Hush," Ashnaqiong said from the river. "There is no ambush on East Road."
"Change for you." Li Jinglong said to Lu Xu.
Lu Xu was as light as a bird, spread his arms, and leaped towards the river. As Naqiong threw a branch at the water, which fell exactly at the foot of Lu Xu, Lu Xu stepped on the branch and flew across the river.
"Yi Wei crossing the river." Li Jinglong could hardly believe what he saw with his eyes, and whispered, "It's a magic skill."
Lu Xu made a circle on the plain across the river, daring not to be too close to the enemy camp, and quickly returned to Asuna Joan: "Are you blind or stupid? So the eight monster pestles were not seen on the plain?" "
"What monster?" Ashnaqiong looked blank.
In the darkness, the eight earth swallowing beasts that had devoured human corpses in Luoyang were kept outside the barracks, lined up.
"How to fight this?" Artest asked again.
"Are you brainless?" Li Jinglong could hardly bear it.
"This is to respect you! Long history!" Lu Xu said.
Li Jinglong forgot for a moment that there was this monster under An Lu Mountain, but he didn't think of the technique of restraint at first. After thinking about it, he said, "Atai blasted with fireballs and blasted their mouths. Lu Xu, you put one One by one came to solve. Joan, you go to inform General Feng, do not attack the battalion for the time being, after the enemy is resolved, say. "
Asuna Qiong went to report, Li Jinglong observed the opposite bank for a long while, and suddenly said: "It's really not good. After a while, I can't call the dragon out. What about the dragon scale for life-saving use?"
Artest: "Mine is in the hands of Trandow."
Lu Xu: "My hand is over to the big wolf, they went to the north."
Li Jinglong: "..."
There were no dragon scales on several people. Atay suddenly remembered and said, "There is a piece of Zhao Zilong."
"Who sent it to the enemy camp?" Li Jinglong said.
Lu Xu: "Aren't you?"
Everyone looked at each other, and the only dragon-scale for life-saving use was actually on the carp demon, and the carp demon was sent by Li Jinglong.
Artest said: "There should be another piece there, don't be nervous, I hope he didn't give it to Hongjun."
Li Jinglong: "..."
