The era of all the princes

Chapter 205 Five Elements Army

The situation in the capital is in full swing. Since the early morning of this day, many people have begun to feel that something is wrong. First of all, the five-line army that has been guarding the four sides of Anan Kingdom, the troops wearing black, red, gold, blue, and orange five-color black armor, gathered in the main hall. The four gates of the city are amazing!
It was the first time for many people to see the legendary Five Elements Army in their country. They were the elites of the country used to guard the four directions, and they were powerful warriors who could really fight against ghosts.

Of course, many people living in the main city are skeptical. After all, a bounty hunter is required to offer a bounty for a demon ghost, and an outsider is needed for a ghost epidemic in this city. Does Anan really have its own trump card army?
On this day, many people were curiously discussing the troops stationed outside the city, and the most lively places were naturally inside those taverns.

"Have you heard? The Five Elements Army is here, it seems that something big is going to happen!"

"The Five Elements Army really exists in our country?" The proprietress asked while sitting at the largest table among them, looking at everyone curiously.

"To be honest, we haven't seen it before." A big man on the table drank his wine and said, "Only the bounty hunters or shopkeepers who went to those five border towns have seen it." hunter.

The hunter took off his hood, revealing a handsome face, but with a pair of conspicuous cat ears on his ears, this is definitely not a human being.

But yes, after the fall of the Tang Dynasty, where in this world are there any purebred humans who can be bounty hunters?Most bounty hunters are a mixture of half human and half demon. Because they have human blood, they are somewhat resistant to cannibalism, and most of them are willing to come out to earn hard money.

"I've seen it before." The hunter looked at the cloudy clouds outside the window, and said quietly: "The gate guards in the north of your Anan country are responsible for defending the biggest gap in Yinshan. Those who fight against the ghost soldiers are the Xuanjia Army and the Chidi Army."

"Little brother, have you seen him?" The proprietress immediately became interested, and leaned over, Miaoman's body was pressed against the opponent, making the hunter, who seemed not very old, blush, and hid to the side.

This made the proprietress smile coquettishly, and the people around also burst into laughter.

"Little brother hasn't passed out yet, he's so raw and tender, you have to stay away from the proprietress, be careful that the bones are chewed to pieces." The big man just said with a chuckle.

The hunter glared at the other party: "Do you still want to listen to you?"

"Listen, listen." The proprietress smiled and poured a cup of tea for the other party: "Don't listen to them."

This guy is not a newcomer. According to her memory, she has been a hunter here for more than three years. If she can live for such a long time, she is not considered a novice in the hunter world. It means the kid is very self-disciplined.

"The five-color army of your Anan Kingdom originated from the Tang Dynasty. It was created by a Taoist priest named Yuan Tiangang. He used the five-element armor to give ordinary people the power to resist demons and ghosts. The five-element armor was made by the first-class refining technique. Incomparably, back then, the Lord of the Anan Kingdom sent His Highness the Crown Prince to offer sacrifices to the Tang Kingdom, and in the end he was rewarded by the Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty, awarded the Three Thousand Five Elements Armor, and invited Master Yuan Tiangang to come to the Anan Kingdom to train the Five Elements Army in person."

"Is there such a thing as the past?" The proprietress was excited when she heard it: "Then why have I never heard of it in my main city?"

"Yes." Others also said: "The Five Elements Army has been passed down to the present, so the military households used are locals from our Anan country?"

"Of course you are from the headquarters of Anan Kingdom." The hunter rolled his eyes at him and said, "Could it be that the Tang Kingdom will send someone to you?"

"Then I was recruited from Anan, why have I never heard of it?" The big man couldn't help but said, he is also a veteran of the city, and he has never heard of the recruitment of the Five Elements Army.

"Because your Five Elements Army in Anan Kingdom is the same group of people from generation to generation." The hunter sneered: "How do you think you have a stable life now? If it weren't for the people in those five towns who were cursed since childhood, what do you think? Can your Anan Kingdom reproduce for a thousand years outside the Yin Mountain?"

"Five towns?" Everyone was puzzled: "How to say?"

The hunter took a sip of tea and continued: "The so-called five-element armor is a prop that uses the five-element fate of the human body and absorbs the human body's essence and blood to exert its power. It must be controlled by people corresponding to the corresponding fate. You are inherently weak and cannot provide a stable source of troops like the Tang State, so at the request of your lord at that time, Yuan Tiangang cast a curse on the five small towns where the border guards are located!"

"Since then, all the people born in these five small towns have five-element fate, and their inborn fortune is far stronger than ordinary people. You, Anan Kingdom, have supported the people in these five small towns for generations, making their families have no food and clothing. Worry, and the men from these five small towns will enlist in the Five Elements Army when they become adults, and will guard the Quartet for your Anan Kingdom from generation to generation!"

As he spoke, the hunter drew a picture on the table with tea: "The four directions are Yinshanduquankou, Dahuang Swamp, Xihai Road, and Achi Country Pass in the east!"

Everyone took a deep breath. Everyone here has heard of these four places. The Yinshan Crossing Spring is the largest gap in the Yinshan Mountains, and it is also the most active place for bounty hunters. It is the place where evil spirits come and go most frequently throughout the year, and there are often ghosts. High-level evil spirits came out to plunder with a large number of ghost soldiers, and even experienced hunters rarely ventured there.

The Great Wilderness Swamp is in the northwest, where the ancient monsters used to be entrenched, and there are still some ancient monsters that occasionally appear, and the road is next to Baizu Mountain, and there are often ogre ghosts who come to plunder the population.

Xihai Road is a city along the Xihai Road, but the Xihai Dragon Palace that once sheltered the human race has lost its voice, replaced by terrifying aquariums that often come ashore to prey. , but there have been no living people in the country for a long time. It is a place where thousands of monsters are carnival, and it is also the key prevention target of Anan Kingdom!

Those places sounded dangerous all these years, but there were very few missing things that invaded the Anan Kingdom. Did someone carry a heavy burden to move forward?

Thinking of this, the veterans on the table showed admiration in their eyes. If what the half-demon said was true, then the people in the five towns could be called real soldiers!
"There is also a price." The half-demon sneered: "The people in those five towns have been under the spell for generations, and their fate is strong, but they can't live to be 30 years old."

Everyone was taken aback for a moment, to such an extent?

"Since he is such a hero for generations, then the lord of the country should give him the glory he deserves. Why haven't we heard of it?" Someone said in shock.

"You think." The half-demon looked at the crowd coldly: "Is it voluntary? In your place, generation after generation, regardless of your children, will not live to be thirty. Are you willing?"

Everyone: "."

Westerners live long lives, most of them live above 30 years old, [-] years old. I am afraid that they are not willing to do this for the country, at least not for future generations. In this life, people are not for themselves but for future generations. No hope, why bother so desperately?
"Then why have you never resisted?" The proprietress asked a question that everyone cared about.

Such cruel oppression. Why didn't you resist?
