Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 365
Gu Xu stood quietly in front of the window of "Xianyunju", looking towards the northeast.

Outside the window, the dark green mountains have been blown away by the breeze, miasma and moisture, facing the bright morning sun, showing a tall and beautiful figure.

On the distant peak and the nearby forest, there are continuous cicadas singing, occasionally mixed with a few crisp birdsong.

The bright sun shines on the towering peaks and slowly spreads to the foot of the mountain. The trees on the mountain and the grass at the foot of the mountain are gradually outlined by the morning light.

Gu Xu could clearly see that among the weeds, thorns and short trees on the mountainside, there was a crooked gray-white wall, like a coiled dragon.

He knew that this long wall was built by the Great Chu Dynasty many years ago to prevent the invasion of the Great Yan Kingdom in the north.

However, as Dayan was incorporated into the territory of Emperor Taizu of Great Qi, the Great Wall across the border lost its original function and remained in a state of desertion without maintenance for a long time. At this time, the wall was basically invisible, only the foundation of the wall remained.

Most of the beacon towers made of blue bricks also collapsed and were dilapidated.

If everything is peaceful, it will be gradually forgotten by people in the torrent of history.

However, in the last few days, the barren Great Wall has suddenly become heavily guarded.

With his mental perception ability far exceeding that of ordinary people, Gu Xu could see soldiers standing guard among the mountains, practitioners patrolling back and forth, and also discovered a huge formation that was invisible and intangible.

"Da Qi set up a blockade formation on the ancient Great Wall," he said solemnly, "I'm afraid it will not be easy for us to pass through the defense line and leave the border."

When he spoke, Zhao Yan had just finished practicing and stood up from the bamboo mat in the corner of "Xianyunju".

The robe she wears is a straight gown with a wide collar and a knee length.

Because of the slits on both sides of the straight hem, her long white legs can be vaguely seen in the morning breeze.

She went straight to Gu Xu's side, put her arms on the window sill, bent slightly, and looked into the distance.

When she leaned forward, the loose silk cloth of the robe was suddenly tightened, and the slender shoulders and thin waist, as well as the full and smooth curves of the buttocks, were clearly highlighted.

"With your magic weapon for constructing space passages, you can't pass through?" she asked.

"No," Gu Xu shook his head, "I tried to use it for positioning just now, and found that the nearby space has been sealed off, and I can't shuttle to places outside the Daqi border, and even flying is prohibited."

Hearing his words, Zhao Yan tried to take out the long spear "Yizhang Wei", but she couldn't take off into the air as usual, as if she was bound to the ground by a heavy chain.

She frowned slightly: "It seems that we have to force our way through."

She was not surprised by the decision of the Daqi court to block the border.Now that Daqi and Dayan are at war, and there is more than one wanted criminal in Daqi, the Daqi government will naturally find a way to restrict the movement of people at the border.

"Maybe there is another way," Gu Xu thought for a moment, and then said, "We can try to disguise as soldiers guarding the border. Maybe they will have the authority to cross the blockade. If this method doesn't work, let's break it Formation, break through the border."

Zhao Yan nodded and agreed to his proposal.

Although her combat power is far superior to the monks in the same realm, there are many strong men in the Qi Dynasty, and after Jingxing's setback, the court will definitely be more vigilant against them.

Can not fight, or try not to fight.

It would undoubtedly be the best outcome for them if they could sneak out of the border unscathed as Gu Xu said.

…………

A moment later, Gu Xu was wearing a black mask, and Zhao Yan was holding the "dream bell" and approached the gray-white long wall in the mountains without a sound.

The "Xianyunju" with carved beams and painted buildings changed back to the size of a walnut, and was put into Gu Xu's pocket, as if it had never existed.

Soon, they saw not far away, two soldiers were sitting under a big tree with a food box, chatting and eating breakfast.

Gu Xu and Zhao Yan glanced at each other tacitly.

Immediately afterwards, a yellowed talisman appeared in Gu Xu's hand out of thin air.

This talisman is called "Shadow Talisman", which can hide the body shape, making it difficult for people around to notice their actions.

At the same time, Zhao Yan launched an attack on the two of them at the level of spirit and soul with lightning speed.

The two soldiers only saw a golden light flash across their field of vision.

Before they could react to what happened, they felt dizzy for a while, and then fell heavily to the ground with a "bang".

Zhao Yan turned her head and smiled at Gu Xu, indicating that the goal has been settled and the plan can continue.

Gu Xu stepped forward and put his right hand on a soldier's shoulder.

Immediately, several thick or thin golden rays took this soldier as the center point and extended in all directions.

These golden rays of light are undoubtedly the "line of cause and effect", a method Gu Xu learned from Kongxuan Sanren.

"Chai Hu, a native of Liaozhou, joined the army three years ago and belongs to the foreman Shi Dehui..." With the help of the "thread of cause and effect", Gu Xu easily understood the identity of the person in front of him.

Then he used the same method to know the identity of another soldier: "Zhong Bing, a native of Fenzhou, joined the army two years ago, and also belongs to Shi Dehui's command..."

He pondered for a few seconds and silently recited an obscure incantation.

After reciting the incantation, he looked at Zhao Yan beside him, and said with a faint smile, "From now on, my name is Chai Hu, and your name is Zhong Bing. We are all border soldiers loyal to the Great Qi court."

"You really won't be recognized?" Zhao Yan raised her eyebrows slightly.

Of these two soldiers, one had dark skin and an unshaven beard, the other had a slender face and a round waist. Their appearance and temperament were completely different from those of Gu and Zhao, not to mention that one of them was even of a different gender.

"Trust me, it won't happen." Gu Xu said to himself.

…………

After some camouflage, the two continued to move towards the direction of the ancient city wall.

On the way, a strong man with round face, big ears, beard and armor passed by them.

Gu Xu tugged Zhao Yan's sleeve lightly, then put on a respectful expression, bowed his head and cupped his hands at the strong man, and said, "I've seen Mr. Shi."

Zhao Yan immediately followed him and saluted, "I have met Mr. Shi."

This strong man is naturally Chai Hu and Zhong Bing's direct superior Shi Dehui.

Hearing their voices, Shi Dehui squinted at them and said casually, "Have you finished your breakfast?"

Gu Xu and Zhao Yan nodded in agreement.

"Then hurry up to pick up Wei Zhang's class," Shi Dehui ordered, "according to the court, that traitor named 'Gu Xu' is running towards us. When you are on guard today, keep an eye on every employee who comes from me." Those who pass by must not be slack in the slightest."

"Obey, Lord Shi," Gu Xu said solemnly, "I will never let any suspicious person slip away from my nose."

Seeing his serious face, Zhao Yan next to him tried his best not to laugh.
