Half-Yokai Cultivating the Path of Immortality Chapter 721: 9 countries
One by one floating corpses floated down the water.
Downstream, dozens of small boats successively salvaged the corpses and loaded the monster skins, corpses, relics, etc. into the cabins, preparing to return them to their families after the war.
"Boss, many people died."
"When it comes to war, there will be no one left alive."
On the bow of a ship, two corpse collectors were talking in a low voice. One of the younger ones looked around and said, "Boss, I just saw Zhang Heizi hiding some demon skins."
"Huh?"
"Really, there is a storage bag in the gap of the boat canopy, and the demon skin is hidden in it."
"Okay, don't say anything, just pretend you didn't see it."
A few miles away, Lu Tong stood motionless on the deck.
Xiao Longting fell beside him, his blood boiling all over his body, and there was some ice and snow remaining on his snow-white fur.
"My lord, Jiangzhu has been defeated."
"Yeah."
Lu Tong withdrew his gaze from a distance and said, "I'll leave this to you."
Qiangwu Pavilion is very powerful. In addition to Xiao Longting, Mingfeng, Jue Mingfeng and others are also listed in Qiangwu Pavilion and have enough strength to stand alone.
"Yes."
Jue Tianniu accepted the offer.
Lu Tong took a step, and a bunch of flame wings flashed behind him. He instantly escaped several miles and landed on a dark boat.
A small boat specially used to collect corpses. The hull is narrow and long, and the awning is square like a large coffin.
"Who is Zhang Heizi?"
"Zhang Heizi pays homage to his seniors!"
At the stern of the boat, a shirtless young man saluted with his hands raised.
Xiao Longting fell beside him, looking a little confused.
Lu Tong lightly tapped his foot, and a palm-sized storage bag popped out of the boat canopy.
"Yours?"
"Unjustly accused! Senior, this is not mine..."
Lu Tong spreads a beam of magic power.
The storage bag shook a few times and three demon skins were poured out. One was a yellow tiger, a waxy yellow crocodile, and a black crocodile.
"Who hid it?"
There was silence on the ship.
Zhang Heizi immediately knelt down and said: "Senior, I didn't hide it..."
Lu Tong ignored it, jumped up, turned into a streak of fire and fled to the west.
Xiao Longting's face was very gloomy.
After becoming a baby, I got the upper hand in my first attack. I wanted to make a good contribution, but I didn't expect to lose face in such a place.
He stared hard at Zhang Heizi, then looked at everyone on the ship one by one, and said in a deep voice: "Yellow Shark!"
"Here!"
"Strip off Zhang Heizi's skin and bones, send everyone on one boat into the assault boat, and lead the charge next time."
"Yes."
……
Three days later.
Lu Tong was sitting in the hall, looking at the battle report sent by Xiao Longting.
"Your Majesty, Master Yun Ao wants to see you."
"Come in."
Yun Ao entered the palace and said: "Jiguo is ready to take action and is gathering Taoist soldiers."
Lu Tong calmed down and said, "Hit us?"
Yun Ao flicked a note and said: "This is the gathering place. They are all in the border cities in the east and northeast. The demons alone are not worth sending so many people."
Lu Tong glanced twice, feeling a little confused.
In these years, Ji State has not taken the initiative to invade. After the annexation, it first rested for decades. More than ten years ago, it began to send troops westward, preparing to annex various small countries.
When he saw the battle report sent by Xiao Longting, he subconsciously felt that it was not a coincidence.
"As soon as we launched our troops, Jiguo took the initiative to attack. Is it possible that he wanted to ruin our good deeds?"
"I don't know."
Lu Tong pondered for a while and said: "Keep watching and find out how many troops they have used in total. Send the news to Qiangwu Tower, and also send a message to Yu Chao to let her prepare."
"Okay."
Yun Ao exited the Purple Air Palace.
Lu Tong sat alone for a few breaths, then flew away towards the direction of Danniuguan.
Underground, deep in the cracks.
Lu Tong enters the cocoon.
Dian Si'er was standing beside the table. Blood mist floated on the table, transforming into mountains, rivers, cities, etc.
"Master."
Lu Tong walked to the table, looked at the map on the table, and said: "Dabo, Dingguo... do you want to continue heading south?"
Deng Zhen’s country is about to be destroyed.
Countless demons have harassed the country all year round. The entire country has been withered for decades and has been reduced to a state of ruin. The population of the country is now less than 500,000.
Dabo and Dingguo are located further south of Dengzhen Kingdom.
Dian Si'er poured a cup of tea and said: "We are interviewing people from all over the place, and we will attack wherever there is an opportunity."
Lu Tong took the teacup, looked at the map twice, and said, "Why not occupy Dengzhen Country?"
Dian Si'er shook his head slowly.
"It's not that I don't want to, but that I can't do it. The First Demon Lord said that with roots comes weakness. We are weak, and we can only have a chance of survival by hiding everywhere."
He was immediately moved.
"If you don't want it, what if I take action?"
Dian Si'er looked at Lu Tong with a somewhat incomprehensible expression. After a moment, he shook his head and said, "The master will not agree."
"What?"
Lu Tong was a little confused.
Dian Si'er said: "The First Demon Lord has long wanted to share the land with me. I will take the land and we will take the underground. I have already refused on my behalf."
Lu Tong blinked.
The demons can cooperate, but they cannot be completely tied together. The demons attack from all sides and offend many people. They have no roots, but the good demons and Zhengguo have roots.
He walked to the side and sat down, took a sip of tea and said, "Ji Guo is about to take action."
"I know."
Dian Si'er sat next to him and said: "The First Demon Lord and the others are unwilling to take action. I will send people to stop them, but I won't be able to hold on for long with my own strength."
"How many people did they send out?"
"Not too much. Liangyao Zhengguo is a hard nut that cannot be easily chewed off. Weak Xiao's henchmen went to attack Qianquan and other countries. This time it was several major peak masters who took action. They are their own sect and will not waste their men. life."
Lu Tong felt relieved.
Countries originate from sects, and most countries divide power together according to their strength. Each country controls a part, governs the country together, goes to war together, and shares the benefits together.
It is rare to see people like Liangyao Zhengguo who educate the people from scratch and employ ordinary people in all aspects of literature, martial arts, and business.
He looked left and right and said, "Xianghuan and Xianmei are gone?"
"Yeah."
Dian Si'er smiled, took out a scroll, and said: "Master, don't think too much, the old one is gone, and the new one will be here soon. This person is probably one of the 'Six Unparalleled Immortals'."
Lu Tong shook his head.
What he was thinking about was not the old people or the new people, but what Dian Si'er would do.
In the last battle, Bao Chuan, Ni Xuanqu and others showed their magical powers, and Dian Si'er had almost no room to intervene. Lu Tong knew Dian Si'er very well and knew her feelings very well.
Experiencing this kind of powerlessness once is enough. Dian Si'er will definitely try his best to improve his strength.
Without powerful support, we can only rely on evil methods.
Dian Si'er unfolded the scroll and said, "What do you think, Master?"
Lu Tong gathered his thoughts.
The painting shows a bald head with no hair, eyebrows, or eyelashes. The round and shiny forehead looks like a large illuminated orb.
He raised the corners of his mouth and said with a smile: "It's really a masterpiece. I have never seen such a neat bald head."
Dian Si'er also smiled.
"I didn't dare to confirm that it was her. There is a saying in the classics left by the Donghai Sect that 'there is light day and night, and the brightness can be seen'. I didn't understand it at the time, but I accidentally came up with it after I found out about this person."
"Who is she?"
"Mrs. Sheguang, a very wealthy man in the Great War, runs a bank business and mainly exchanges currencies of various countries. She is very powerful."
"Big fight..."
Lu Tong knows this country.
The Great Dou State, one of the allies of the Qianquan State, is resisting the Ji State together.
This country is ashamed of being short. The people are very tall and tall, and all the houses, books, pots and bowls in the country are very big.
He thought for a while and turned to look at Dian Si'er.
"The Great Dou Kingdom is not close to each other, but you can actually find out where it is."
Dian Si'er's news seems to be better informed than Yun Ao's, and Yun Ao has the entire Liangyao Zhengguo behind him.
Dian Si'er shook his head helplessly and said: "If we are not strong enough and our ears and eyes are not as sensitive, how can we continue to go down?"
Lu Tong did not ask any further questions.
Everyone has his or her own destiny.
The Ninth Madam has the fate of the Ninth Madam, and so does Dian Si'er.
“Think twice about everything.”
"Yeah."
……
Half a month later, Jiguo and Liangyaozhengguo fought again, and they began to fight day by day on the demon soil.
Three months later, Xiao Longting conquered Jiangzhu Shenxu and continued to approach Xiaozhao, Tianlian and other countries.
Jiangzhu Shenxu.
The water mist is floating in the Shenxu, and the red water mist is swaying gently in the wind. Under the fog is a shallow mud beach. The water is turbid and the dark red mud is very soft. There are large pot-shaped mud nests of river pigs floating on it.
Lu Tong stepped on the water and raised his hand to push through a layer of water mist. After feeling it for a long time, he said: "What kind of **** was here back then?"
Yongnuo hung next to him and said: "The fragrance in the blood is a very ancient **** with few records. He was born in the overflowing river. He is good at circulating water and steam and cultivating water monsters in the river."
Lu Tong nodded.
The red water mist contains a hint of "irritability", which will make the blood boil, and there is also another vague air of lightness.
"From the perspective of your gods, what kind of monster is the most suitable for this ruins?"
Yongnuo rolled his eyelids and said: "The most suitable local gods are naturally local monsters, and any common monsters in the Yihe River can be used."
"Jiangzhu?"
"This demon can occupy the sacred ruins, so it should be the most suitable."
"Good work."
"There is no method for river pigs to transform into demons in the Heaven and Earth Demon Code.
Lu Tong had already noticed the importance Zuntian Divine Realm placed on Shu Kingdom and asked for it directly.
"I will ask the Lord God."
After Yongwu agreed, he hesitated and said: "I need a living sacrifice, with no less than a hundred people."
"Okay."
……
The two sides started fighting at the same time, recruiting hundreds of thousands of unemployed and landless refugees, which greatly eased the pressure on various pools and towers.
At the same time, a lot of magic weapons were consumed.
In addition, the fighting on the battlefield caused the wandering blood to become thicker, the blood talismans produced in the formation increased, and the treasury was abundant, and magic weapons and magic weapons were once again customized to various chambers of commerce.
The small waves quickly dissipated, and the country of Liangyao Zheng returned to prosperity again.
Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Lu Tong sat cross-legged on the couch.
The little blue bird broke into the palace and said in panic: "My lord, we are defeated, Jiangzhu Shenxu has been lost!"
Lu Tong opened his eyes, and a wave of waves flashed across his deep eyes, which quickly returned to deepness again.
"Speak slowly."
Little Blue Bird looked pale, took a deep breath, and said: "The urgent report just came back. The Taoist soldiers attacking Xiaozhao Kingdom encountered an ambush and were defeated. Jiangzhu Shenxu was also lost."
As soon as the little blue bird finished speaking, Zhang Qiao entered the palace and said in a deep voice: "The Lord."
Lu Tong was silent for a breath and said: "Go to the Golden Dragon Palace and wait for me."
"Yes."
Little Blue Bird and Zhang Qiao retreated together.
Lu Tong sat alone on the couch, thought for a long time, exhaled softly, and said: "We lost unexpectedly."
War is dangerous.
If you win the battle, all the dangers will disappear under the huge benefits. But once the war is lost, many conflicts concealed by the war will burst out.
Golden Dragon Palace.
In just a short moment, the square golden couch was filled with various notes.
Zhang Qiao is ready to salute.
Lu Tong waved his hand, went over to sit down, and said, "How did you lose?"
Zhang Qiao sat down opposite.
"It's not clear yet. I just heard that the ship got stuck in the quagmire and couldn't get out. A large number of enemies besieged it from all sides, and they were defeated after encountering the siege."
"Swamp?"
Lu Tong frowned.
There is a lot of water and mud in the Yihe River, which Xiao Longting has already considered.
During the expedition, most of the ships were specially crafted treasure ships. The ships were wide, light, and entered the water shallowly, so they should not get stuck in the mud.
The little bluebirds sent messages one after another.
"The Lord of the Kingdom, the Lord of Jue Hall led the old man guarding the ridge and You to help, and sent a message saying that the enemy has retreated and is helping to collect the remaining soldiers."
"If you ask the master of Jushu Ruins, you can lead the army to go to war at any time."
"The Drunken Sword Kingdom and the White Ape Kingdom have sent out personnel to rescue people together..."
Lu Tong asked: "Where is Xiao Longting?"
"No news yet."
The little blue bird left the palace and returned soon. His face turned pale again and said: "The king, the master of Jue Palace sent a message. Master Jishan is missing. Master Xiao is looking for him."
Lu Tongtong shrank.
Baby Ji is missing.
He held his breath, took a breath, and slowly calmed down.
Baby Ji has two life talismans.
At first, Madam Ninth was in charge of the two life talismans, but later it was handed over to Xu Xuxing.
This talisman is in short supply, but given Ji Baobao’s status, it shouldn’t be difficult to get it. But the next moment she was a little worried, Xu Xuxing was not the Ninth Lady.
"Ask Xu Xuxing, when was the last time Ji Baobao changed the two life talismans."
"Yes."
The little bluebird spreads its wings and flies away.
After a cup of tea, he returned to the palace and said loudly: "My lord, Palace Master Xu sends someone to deliver a new talisman every ten days."
Lu Tong breathed a sigh of relief.
Two life talismans stored for ten days are enough to save lives.
One after another news reached the Golden Dragon Palace.
At night.
Xiao Longting led one person into the palace, knelt down suddenly, and said: "This subordinate has betrayed the trust of the king, please punish me!"
"Master."
Ji Baobao stood nearby, his eyes dull, his face, hair, and clothes full of mud.
"Little Bluebird, take Baby Ji to see Wangqiu."
"Yes."
The two of them retreated together.
Lu Tong stood up, walked to the edge of the golden couch, looked at Xiao Longting, and said, "How did you lose?"
"Fell into the scheme."
Xiao Longting was injured, and his snow-white fur had a few burnt black sword marks. He said in a muffled voice: "The water in the overflowing river suddenly dropped. In just one stick of incense, it dropped three feet in a row, and all the ships fell into the quagmire. After that...after that Then they were besieged."
"Get up."
Lu Tong sat back to his side. ~IndoMTL.com~ Xiao Longting stood up and stood there without saying a word.
Lu Tong took a sip of tea, glanced to the side and said, "Is the battle over?"
Xiao Longting didn’t understand.
"Cough."
Zhang Qiao coughed and said: "Master Xiao, it's just a confrontation. It cannot determine the outcome of the war."
Xiao Longting gritted his teeth and said, "Back to the Lord, it's not over."
"Since it's not over yet, why are you standing here? Why don't you go back and continue fighting."
"Yes!"
Xiao Longting turned around and left. After walking a few steps, he turned back, knelt down and said, "My subordinates must conquer Xiaozhao Kingdom, otherwise, otherwise..."
"Okay!"
Lu Tong interrupted Xiao Longting and said, "Save your strength and save it for when you kill someone."
"Yes!"
Xiao Longting stood up and left.
"Hey."
Lu Tong sighed, shook his head and said, "Palace Master Zhang, what do you think?"
"Master, cutting off the Yihe River may not be possible even with great power. It must be a method left behind by the Jiuling Sect. The strength of Xiaozhao and other countries may be stronger than expected."
"What else?"
"Surrounded on all sides, there are definitely more than three or two countries. I suspect that this time it may be the nine countries that the Jiuling Sect is divided into that attack together."
Lu Tong gradually calmed down his heart, and his expression returned to deep.
If Xiaozhao and others sincerely join forces and advance and retreat together regardless of each other, they will become a giant again.
But...
He has always been afraid of people's hearts, and he doesn't believe that anyone can do anything without selfish interests.
"Do you believe it?"
"The leader of the country refers to..."
"Nine countries, there are nine people in the country alone. Counting Zhen Yuanying, hundreds of officials, wealthy people, etc., the interests of hundreds of people are intertwined. Can they really advance and retreat together?"
"Maybe, it may have something to do with the Dharma."
