Chapter 258 Extra Story [-]

The wind was cold, and the hoofs were broken.

The northernmost part of the Dingbai Province in the northern part of the Jialuo Empire has been covered by snow since here, and there is no vegetation covering the surrounding area. The bare Gobi is very flat, which is the result of continuous erosion by the wind.

Lu Xulei stood with his hands behind his back and looked up at the majestic and endless Beisu Mountain. The snowflakes flying all over the sky were blown up by the wind. The muck in the cave was cleaned up, and the vegetables and dry food accompanying the army were hoarded here.

The wind and snow blew on the faces of the soldiers, even those who had mastered Xue Hua's heart were terribly frozen, their noses and cheekbones were already red from the cold.It’s not just the discus-thick frost and snow that rolls with the wind, there are a few birds and spirit beasts circling in the sky, as if seeing a rare delicacy, but suffering from too many "prey" to eat, wanting to dive down but hovering Uncertain, entangled in whether to bend down to attack a group of spirit warriors and take a few of them back to the mountain to feed their hunger, or not to violate the muddy water and wave their wings to leave the range of activities of these spirit warriors.

There is a strange humming sound echoing intermittently on Beisu Mountain, mixed with wind and snow, pouring back and forth on the snow-capped mountain. It is expected that there is no sound on the steep mountain wall. If it is not for the birds and spirit beasts above the head that are still circling, outsiders will have the illusion , Thinking that the mountain is like a huge living spirit beast.

There are many local merchants running horses here to collect the rare ores and countless precious spiritual plants in the mountains and plains. As long as they are brave enough and accompanied by strong enough spiritual warriors, these merchants will not miss the endless land of the northern border. Mountains, but the Beisu Mountain in front of you can be said to be an area that merchants will never set foot on. Carrying away a naturally formed soldier spirit, the quality will never be bad.

It stands to reason that this is a treasure mountain, but merchants will not stay here, because this mountain not only has an extremely fierce ice crystal snow demon, but also a snow demon king named Frost Crystal Dragon entrenched here. The humming sound is exactly the nasal sound it makes when it is sleeping soundly.

The ice flame crystal dragon and the snow control crystal dragon inhabit the two nearby snow mountains, forming a triangle with the Beisu mountain where the frost crystal dragon occupies. The ice crystal snow demon group is enslaved by the three-headed dragon, forming a natural barrier.It is difficult for spiritual warriors to continue to expand to the north, and the complex and harsh weather and landforms are not suitable for humans who are afraid of the cold to move here. The dwarves are used to warm caves, and rarely leave their hometown in the northwest, and it is impossible to come here to seek punishment. If you can see a lone dwarf haunting here, it is a sinful person who was driven out by the dwarf group and left to perish on its own.

The biggest threat to the northern border is not the group of desperadoes who can't make waves, nor those ice crystal snow demons who are difficult to communicate with and attack when they meet each other, but these three snow demon kings. In a catastrophe, the ice crystal snow demons all over the mountains and plains will be swept away by the huge dragon tail. The hungry crystal dragon will remind the servants of the pain of being dominated. Eat spirit beasts and humans to satisfy Jinglong's appetite.

This is also the reason why there are not many humans in the north of Garan Province, and only profit-seeking caravans are still active in Dingbai and Husong Provinces.

As the Qing'an Festival was approaching, the northern military brigade, which was supposed to celebrate the festive season, was not stationed in the north of Garan Province, but came to the foot of Beisu Mountain. All of this revealed that it was unusual.

The north wind is whistling, the forest is whizzing, the coniferous forests all over the mountains are dark, every tree seems to hide ice crystals and snow monsters behind it, and every grass seems to be breathing.I saw a white shadow rushing from Beisu Mountain, and within a few breaths came to Lu Xulei, and when I got close, I saw that it was a bear-like spirit beast.It has a whole body of white hair, its skin and hair are snow-white, and it is a frighteningly white one, and blue blood vessels can even be faintly seen from under the pale skin.There is nothing special about the bear's appearance, except for the pair of eyes, which are red and radiate a little luster.If it was in the dark, he would probably have bright eyes like a cat.

Bai Xiong just rubbed the back of Lu Xulei's rough hand, and then involuntarily turned into spiritual power and poured into the spiritual knot on his finger, emitting a white glow for a moment, and then gradually subsided.Lu Xulei also sensed everything that the red-eyed frozen rock bear wanted to express in his mind at the first time, and he had some considerations in his mind.

Suddenly, the crutch in Lu Xulei's hand suddenly came out of the hole like a yellow dragon, like a big gun poking out, swung it sideways and then danced with a sound, sideways to avoid the attack from the lower back, and hit the rear with lightning speed The face that stooped to rise.

The man wasn't annoyed either. His two fingers that were protruding forward were merged into his palms, his arms rotated to put aside the crutches, he stood up and patted the nearest rock, and leaped backwards, turning his fists into palms, and left Xu Lei's body. Five meters away, Luck adjusted his breath and his smile did not diminish.

"Elder Lu's skills are good!"

The middle-aged man with long hair and a goatee in front of him is holding luck in one hand and holding a jade bowl in the other.
The cold air and the hot air in it collided with each other, and thin and dense pale white smoke came out.

"It turns out to be Brother Meng. The old man is still in good health, but he can't stand your nonsense. If I am scared to death by you, I will hand over the northern army to you to lead."

The one who came was none other than Danzong Dan Momeng Bugui. It was rumored that he was active in the Loulan Dynasty, but now he is at the northernmost tip of the Jialuo Empire.

"You're trying to blackmail me into taking over the army, and you've tortured me for the rest of your life. The last time I met you was in Puro province. Elder Lu, Sect Master Yang, and General Qiao were so heroic. Meng still remembers them so vividly, so I dare not Forget it. Elder Lu has good intentions, but it is a pity that I am free-spirited and don't like to be restrained. If you want to manage the army for me, it will be a disaster."

"What is the purpose of Brother Meng coming here? Could it be that he wants to climb this mountain to find spiritual plants?"

"No, I came here to look for a kind of spirit insect called the Dream-weary Iceworm. It is recorded in this area in ancient books. When the climate is the coldest, the Dream-weary Iceworm will go out to look for food. I'd rather I would like to ask Elder Lu, if the Frost Dragon, Snow Dragon, and Ice Dragon camps are not in Garan Province, but appear here, could it be?"

Meng Bugui raised his left finger and pointed to the top of Beisu Mountain, and raised his eyebrows. Needless to say, he was referring to the Frost Crystal Dragon who was still sleeping.

"Yes, you guessed it right. The Ice Flame Crystal Dragon woke up more than 20 years ago. If Yang Chengfu hadn't used his supernatural powers, I don't know how many brothers would have been killed or injured. Now it's time for the Frost Crystal Dragon to wake up. I don't care about many people who came here in advance. Suppress the formation, before the Ice Crystal Snow Demon runs away, confine it here, so as not to be attacked by the fish that slipped through the net in the south."

"General Lu's benevolence and righteousness, Meng admires, but do you know that there was a turmoil in Garan Province, bandits and bandits were rampant, and most of the cities in Garan Province were swept away. The gentry and nobles died and fled, and the local officers and soldiers were not spared. The city lord has fled with his family through the secret passage, and it is estimated that he is no longer in the territory of the Jialuo Empire. The general led the army to Beisu Mountain. If someone cut off the food supply, wouldn’t it be an enemy?" Meng Bugui shouted loudly, attracting the surrounding soldiers It seems that he is not worried about his own situation.

"Meng Bugui, what's on your mind? Why are you here?" Lu Xulei's face was dark, and a group of soldiers behind him were about to surround him. When Lu Xulei waved his hand behind his back, the soldiers suppressed their impulse. step forward.

"I'm just reminding you kindly that I'm not interested in what you're here to do, and I don't want to help you. You're making too much noise. Even if I'm tired of dreaming, Iceworm would have been scared away long ago. I've traveled thousands of miles It’s a waste of time to come here, why not complain?”

After a pause, Meng Bugui continued.

"What's more, I came here alone, why are you so vigilant?"

"Meng Bugui, you are the descendant of the alchemy sect, and you are nicknamed alchemy in the Lingwu world. Even if you are alone, your ability to refine and smear corpses must be second to none. I think you have sewn dozens of statues. Is it a corpse?"

"Elder Lu has been away from the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect for so many years and still knows so many things in the Lingwu world. It is my honor to have Meng's reputation in your ears. But don't worry, I didn't bring so many corpse demons. Leave Loulan During the dynasty, I was hunted down by people from the Changfeng Sect and the Dili Sect. I cleverly managed to keep the deputy head of the Changfeng Sect and the three bishops of the Dili Sect. Their bodies are very complete and it is not difficult to sew them. I will Most of the spiritual plants collected by the Loulan Dynasty were poured into these four corpses, and four corpse demons were obtained, each corpse demon's strength is comparable to that of a strong man in the Holy Spirit Realm, and it protects me comprehensively."

Meng Bugui's speech became slower and slower, and at the end, with a flash of finger knots, four corpse demons of different heights appeared behind him, their disheveled hair covered most of their faces, there was no trace of blood on their ghastly skin, and there was only one eyeball. The pupils of the eyes are dark, the whites of the eyes are bloodshot, a large number of corpse spots have appeared on the body, the skin has an unhealthy white color, but the fingers and toes are as black as ink, which is not good at first glance.

Lu Xulei was shocked when he saw the four corpse demons, and urged all kinds of sensory methods of the Wanshouzong to confirm that Meng Bugui's words were true. These four corpse demons had all reached the peak of the Spirit Emperor Realm. If the corpses and demons work together, they will be injured if they can't survive ten rounds. At present, no one else in the three camps has the same level of cultivation except myself. The Ice Crystal Snow Demon lost its vitality when it went south.

Rumor has it that Meng Bugui's biological parents were from the Loulan Dynasty. After birth, they found that they were weak and discarded them. They were picked up by followers of the Duer Sect, who raised some money and gave them to the mountain people in the Promir Mountains to raise them. The people have no children under their knees, and they regard Meng Bugui as their own. The surname Meng comes from the mountain people, and Bugui is a name given by the followers of the Duer religion.Later, poachers and bandits went up the mountain to hunt down spirit beasts and killed their adoptive parents. Meng Bugui escaped the killing by going out to play. When he returned home, he saw his adoptive parents lying in a pool of blood, mentally disturbed and unconscious.He was rescued by soldiers and sent to Danzong for treatment. The story behind it is unknown, only that he grew from a stupid and thin child to one of the four most outstanding geniuses of Danzong at that time, and then he abandoned his identity as an elder and ran to The Loulan Dynasty collected medicinal herbs, and since then left a bad name, and became a devil who is both good and evil.

Meng Bugui does everything according to his preferences, he doesn't ask whether it is right or wrong, he doesn't care about benevolence, righteousness and morality, he just wants to make his heart happy, or it may be novel and interesting.With such a man the conversation had to find another way.After making up his mind, Lu Xulei had a judgment in his heart and said.

"Since brother Meng has revealed all the details of his wealth so openly and honestly, it must not be for a mere dream-hating ice silkworm, right? Brother Meng never expected our army to be stationed here, so he made an excuse just to cooperate with me , to achieve a win-win situation. Brother Meng, do you think so?"

"The precept elders of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect really live up to their reputation. Chatting with smart people is easy. It is true that I want to find the dream-weary ice silkworm. I need the dream-weary ice silkworm to be used as medicine, which can restore the sanity of the living dead. I also want to find it in Baixing. Besides this spirit insect, I also have another spirit plant to find, named Yinyang Bingdilian, which is on the top of Beisu Mountain. Originally, I wanted to go up the mountain alone to pick it, but this is not to worry about the other side of the mountain. The female dragon has woken up, so let's go around here and make a decision."

"What do you mean, our army and Brother Meng will act together to repel the Ice Crystal Snow Demon and cover you in picking the Yin and Yang Bingdilian?"

"That's right, although Meng doesn't have the supernatural powers of Sect Master Yang to transform the ice crystal snow demon into a spirit corpse, but I can just go up the mountain and use these four corpse demons to fight a way, and I can still kill the ice crystal snow demon's body." It can be sewn within a short period of time, and the efficiency is not as good as that of Sect Master Yang, but it can guarantee that there will be no ice crystals and snow demons running down the side of the hill."

"Is this true?"

"I swear by Danzong. Believe it or not, Meng never promises easily. The purpose of going north this time is one silkworm and one lotus. If you don't agree, I will kill him right now and turn him upside down."

Lu Xulei still wanted to think about it for a while, when suddenly there was thunder on Beisu Mountain, he looked up to see where the sky had changed, it was the Frost Crystal Dragon that woke up!
"Damn it! Why is it so coincidental?"

Lu Xulei was anxious in his heart, spat secretly, and responded decisively.

"According to what you said, you and I act together!"

"That's great! Meng is completely driven by General Lu!"

The Frost Crystal Dragon roared. The sky was originally covered with cloudy clouds and flying snow, but now it was dispersed by the whistling sound. The sun could not be seen in the gray sky, and a layer of frost and snow filled the air, and the air became cold.

"The whole army obeys!"

"Yes!" The soldiers of the third battalion stood upright one by one. Some soldiers with insufficient cultivation base were a little frozen and their body movements were uncoordinated.

"Follow the command of the battalion commander, and prevent the ice crystal snow demon from going south to invade the empire's territory. Those who offend me will be punished no matter how far away they are!"

"Anyone who offends me will be punished no matter how far away!"

"Anyone who offends me will be punished no matter how far away!"

"Anyone who offends me will be punished no matter how far away!"

The soldiers were excited, and Lu Xulei's prestige was great. The soldiers lived a miserable life in this harsh winter. If General Lu hadn't sacrificed his heart and soul, it was hard to speculate whether the Northern Frontier Army would have such a large scale.

Lu Xulei summoned the battalion commanders of the three battalions, looked at the faces of Hong Tianying, Ge Jianjun, and Zhan Lu in front of him, and the past memories flashed in his mind like a revolving lantern. He has been on a lot, he is old, and he can't last the next 20 years.Regardless of the changes in the next 20 years, let's take advantage of this war...

There seems to be an invisible hand in the dark. Every time when resisting the ice crystal snow demon group, there is always an external force to help. Every time, because the external force is too strong, a life is saved. Maybe it's a coincidence or a trick of fate...

Explain everything clearly, let Hong Tianying, Ge Jianjun, and Zhan Lu stabilize the morale of the army, calm down, look at Meng Bugui, and walk over.

"Brother Meng, let's go up the mountain!"

"I would like to accompany General Lu on a journey!"

The two walked away towards the foot of the other side of Beisu Mountain. The wind and snow quickly covered their whereabouts, and the frost and fog filled the air. Only the Frost Crystal Dragon, which was still roaring, reminded the soldiers that the ice crystal The snow demon group is about to go south again, invading every inch of the Jialuo Empire, seeking meat for their masters.
