People are in Xianwu, there are small games

Chapter 165 Dream and Shadow

The blood beads rolled down, slid over the long sword, and slid into Lu Ming's palm.

Creamy and warm.

Seeing Zhang Hai whose breath was quickly passing away, Lu Ming was at a loss for a moment...

Zhang Hai is not that weak.

The cause and effect between Lu Ming and Zhang Hai is not shallow, but it is not very deep either.

According to Lu Ming's own estimation, this sword can limit Zhang Hai's movement and also hurt Zhang Hai, but killing him with one sword is too exaggerated, and there is almost no such possibility.

Therefore, rather than saying that Lu Ming killed Zhang Hai instantly with a sword of cause and effect, it is better to say that he was actively seeking death.

As soon as this idea came up, Lu Ming immediately confirmed it from the smile on Zhang Hai's face.

He is actively seeking death.

No need to ask why.

From the line of cause and effect, Lu Ming has understood everything.

A rootless and hopeless person.

Put your dreams on another person.

Reality is cruel, dreams are wonderful.

I just want to sleep forever and not wake up.

Lu Ming suddenly took a deep breath and made a decision instantly.

"die!"

An earth-shattering roar exploded.

A huge evil figure rises from behind.

At this moment, the evil spirit waved his sword, and thunder rolled from the sky and the earth trembled!
Go against heaven and earth!

The roaring and exploding city-destroying ultimate move was limited to the corner of the Sanxiang Gang's main hall under Lu Ming's control.

But it was precisely because of this that the sound was so loud that it shook the sky.

It was like a mushroom cloud exploding from the Sanxiang Gang's main hall.

Dust filled the sky, blocking everyone's sight.

Suddenly there was a sound that echoed in all directions.

It was Lu Ming's voice.

"Today, a certain family killed Zhang Hai!"

"Bone and ashes!"

As soon as the voice fell, there was a faint humming sound.

Lu Ming seemed to be injured when he beheaded Zhang Hai.

This arouses the thoughts of interested people.

It may be the master's task.

It’s all about money and silk that moves people’s hearts.

Until a few figures appeared in front of the Sanxiang Gang's main hall.

Qichuan, Zhenfeng, Yuan Shengdong, Li Wei, Huang Xiaochong, and even Shagong, Luchi.

They stood side by side in the doorway, with their backs to the door and toward the street.

The expression on the face may be solemn or calm, or excited or full of fighting spirit.

This undoubtedly dispelled some people's weird thoughts.

"Gang Leader Lu, please rest in peace and recuperate."

"I'm waiting here, and I won't let the young people take advantage of it!"

Lu Ming's weak voice came from the courtyard.

“Let’s have a feast another day.”

……

Lu Ming responded to Qichuan's words while stuffing a large return pill into Zhang Hai's mouth.

But in my heart, I secretly felt that it was a pity.

I didn't lure the young people out.

The weak state is intentional, in order to attract Wang Tongcai and others!

That Wang Tongcai ran away when Zhang Hai came on the scene, so Lu Ming would let him go.

But at this moment, Wang Tongcai and so on are not important.

If they could be attracted, they wouldn't even think about getting out - Lu Ming's injuries were completely superficial and did not affect his combat effectiveness at all.

If you can't attract them, then let it go.

after all……

Seeing Zhang Hai's breathing gradually getting stronger, Lu Ming thought for a while, carried Zhang Hai and walked into the back room.

……

Feeling dizzy, Zhang Hai opened his eyes.

What catches the eye is the exquisite large bed.

He turned his head and saw the young swordsman in white sitting on the chair, looking at him deeply, motionless.

"woke up?"

Lu Ming's voice sounded, and Zhang Hai slowly turned his head and looked at the ceiling above his head.

"Why save me?" he asked.

Suddenly laughter rang out from Lu Ming's mouth.

"Then why didn't you dodge that sword?"

Zhang Hai thought for a while, then smiled again: "I don't want to."

Don’t want to, just don’t want to.

"Me too. I want to save you, so I will."

Think, just think.

After looking at the wound on Zhang Hai's chest, Lu Ming nodded with satisfaction.

The Great Returning Pill is as powerful as ever.

At the same time, it also aggravated the cause and effect of the two people.

Thinking like this, Lu Ming stood up and opened the door.

"Now you can go."

After saying that, Lu Ming said again: "Don't go back to Dongchang. I told the outside world that I have killed you and reduced you to ashes... Next, you can go wherever you want, but don't go back to Dongchang again." , stop being a dog to others."

Zhang Hai turned his head to look at Lu Ming again, and said with blank eyes.

"I don't know where to go."

He entered the palace since childhood.

Although there are dreams, dreams are no match for reality.

The tasks issued by Dongchang and the royal family were everything to him. At this moment, this line was broken, and Zhang Hai was immediately at a loss and could not see the way forward.

As his thoughts turned around, Zhang Hai sighed faintly: "You might as well just let me die."

He was confused and confused.

He had a dream of being invincible, but he was destined to be a slave.

This complex intertwining of everything tore him apart and destroyed him.

He is not a decisive person.

So, when he was ordered to kill Lu Ming from above, he chose a compromise.

Died at the hands of Lu Ming.

Life is better than death, nothing more.

Looking at Zhang Hai lying motionless on the bed, Lu Ming suddenly sighed.

After thinking about it, he sat back on the chair and said softly: "Will you continue to carry out the mission of Dongchang?"

Zhang Hai said blankly: "I don't know."

"Do you still want to kill me?"

"I never wanted to kill you from the beginning."

"Then do you still want to have a sweet dream?"

These words made Zhang Hai turn his head and look at Lu Ming.

After asking himself, he nodded: "I think so."

Lu Ming pointed at himself and then at Zhang Hai.

"How can you wish to die before your dream is over?"

"Just stay here with me."

"Watching your dream come true with my own eyes, I am the only one who is undefeated."

"I will be your dream, and you will be my shadow."

"Until you find your own dream again."

Zhang Hai, the road to third grade has long been cut off.

Even more so now.

Loyalty to the royal family and loyalty to himself are intertwined. At this moment, Lu Ming has rejected the former, but he cannot understand the latter.

Zhang Hai was silent for a long time, but didn't say a word.

Until Lu Ming stood up and left, he returned a moment later and brought out a black suit and a mask.

"I'll put the things here. I have something else to do, so I won't take care of you anymore."

Turn around and leave.

……

Lu Ming really couldn't continue to hang out with Zhang Hai.

The Qianlong Banquet was ruined, and something happened in Daliang Mountain.

Lu Ming is really busy at the moment.

After walking through the ruins, he opened the door and walked out of the Sanxiang Gang's main hall. Looking at Qichuan and others at the entrance of the main hall, Lu Ming cupped his fists and saluted.

"Thank you guys."

Although, they couldn't get involved in the battle between Lu Ming and Zhang Hai.

But just to protect himself against Xiaoxiao is a righteous act.

The group headed by Qichuan immediately returned the favor, and Qichuan said again: "Gang Leader Lu is next..."

"Go and see Daliang Mountain."

After saying that, he immediately said goodbye and left, but did not leave the city first, but returned to Lu Mansion.

……

Lu Mansion, in the side room.

Lu Ming pushed open the door and looked at Jian Lu and Fang Yusheng.

"The sword is not finished yet?"

Fang Yusheng didn't even raise his head, he just observed the heat and said, "It's not finished yet."

After hearing this, Lu Ming didn't urge him. He turned around and was about to leave when he heard Fang Yusheng's voice again.

"There is not enough evil energy in Xuanshui City, and Daliang Mountain is more suitable for the next sword-making process. If the gang leader wants to go to Daliang Mountain, I want to go with you."

Lu Ming nodded immediately: "Okay."

After leaving the room and walking into the courtyard, Duan Muqing walked hand in hand with another graceful woman whom Lu Ming had never seen before.

"This is Sister Zhongxiu Meizhong."

The first among the eighteen golden hairpin female guards after Ye Rou.

Duanmuqing opened her mouth to introduce, and Lu Ming nodded to Zhong Xiumei.

Then I heard Zhong Xiumei say again: "I also want to go to Daliang Mountain and want to go with Gang Leader Lu."

Lu Ming waved his hand violently: "No."

Zhong Xiumei is at the peak of the fifth rank, but has not yet reached the fourth rank. Although she is listed on the Hidden Dragon List, it is ridiculous to want to go to Daliang Mountain with the strength of the fifth rank.

Ignoring Zhong Xiumei's slightly depressed pretty face, Lu Ming looked at Duanmu Qing.

"The two of you will take care of the affairs of the house for the time being. I don't know what will happen to a certain family when I leave, and I don't know how long it will take to return."

Duanmuqing nodded immediately.

Then Lu Ming was seen striding away.

As soon as he reached the door, Duanmu Qing and Zhong Xiumei heard roaring coming from the room behind them.

The door opened, and a strong middle-aged blacksmith followed closely behind Lu Ming, holding a sword-making cauldron.

The flames in the furnace were blazing and there was a faint sound of sword clanging.

Not far away, Lu Ming opened the door.

The horses were in position outside the door, and immediately Qichuan and others were sitting upright, but the horse at the front was empty, obviously prepared for Lu Ming.

Seeing this scene, Lu Ming cupped his fists and raised his hands.

"Daliang Mountain is dangerous. If you want to go together, please be mentally prepared."

Qichuan and others laughed loudly.

"If you are traveling with Gang Leader Lu, why should you be afraid?"

Lu Ming didn't respond and just got on his horse.

There were also servants preparing a cart. Fang Yusheng restrained the sword furnace's firepower and rode in the same cart with the sword furnace.

One cart and eight horses galloped out of the city.

Arriving at the city gate, Lu Ming looked back into the distance.

In the other direction outside Xuanshui City, the battle of the third rank roared and shocked.

The army beat drums and the sound filled the whole city to strengthen the army.

Hua Hengchuan and Long Yidong Chengyu fought with no outcome.

Being near Xuanshui City, with the help of military strength, Hua Hengchuan was able to defeat one against two, but he was unable to defend and attack, so he was in trouble.

Lu Ming shook his head slightly and looked back in the direction of Daliang Mountain.

The chubby figure vaguely appeared in my mind.

"Mitao..."

I don’t know what’s going on in Black City Walled City or where Mi Tao is now.

"go!"

With a loud shout, the cavalry moved forward.

Suddenly a fast horse galloped from the city.

The man on the horse, dressed in black and wearing a ghost mask, quietly came to Lu Ming's side.

Qichuan couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Who is this?"

The corners of Lu Ming's mouth raised slightly, but he remained silent.

There was still a sound coming from underneath the mask.

"I don't know either." He didn't know whether he was a royal servant, Lu Ming's shadow, or Zhang Hai.

He was in a dilemma and couldn't make a choice in a short time.

Then go out.

Walk more and see more.

Just as he was thinking this, Lu Ming's voice suddenly rang in his ears.

"hope your dreams come true."

Under the mask, Zhang Hai smiled slightly: "Thank you."

……

Listen to the sound of golden drums and horse hooves.

Outside Xuanshui City, a total of ten people, nine on horseback and one in one cart, rushed to Daliang Mountain.

The breeze blows and the evil spirit blows towards my face, as if the Daliang Mountain in front is the legendary Nine Netherworld.

There seems to be something heroic about this situation.

But in fact it is not the case.

Because there are many people rushing to Daliang Mountain...

very many.

When there are more people, it will naturally become less heroic.

There are indeed people who generously went to the country to die, and there are many of them.

But most of them are competing for opportunities...

What is the opportunity?

That evil spirit is the greatest opportunity for low-grade warriors!

Looking at the roaring crowd in front of him, Lu Ming couldn't help but take a breath.

It wasn't until this moment that he realized how widely the Blood Evil Star Jue he had compiled had spread.

Shagun’s voice came to his ears.

"Most of them are Liang people, a small part are Zhou people from Tonglin Province, and some are from other provinces."

Liangmin has been in Zhou Dynasty for some time.

Under the arrangement of the Zhou court, the Liang people temporarily lived in several large refugee camps near Xuanshui City.

Zhou Xingwu made a decision early in the morning to gain reputation with the Blood Evil Star Judgment and seize the dragon's energy. Therefore, the Blood Evil Star Judgment spread very quickly.

Then came the problem...

The evil spirit is not enough.

When practicing the New Blood Evil Star Art near Xuanshui City, there was a lot of competition because there were so many people practicing at the same time.

At this time, the Earthly Evil Formation under the Black City Walled City in Daliang Mountain exploded, which may be an extremely dangerous signal for Lu Ming, Zhou Xingwu and others.

But for a low-level warrior who has practiced the Blood Evil Star Art, this thing comes just in time.

Just when I felt that the evil spirit was not enough, the evil spirit in Daliang Mountain exploded...

Why don't you rush it?

There were so many people that the horses even had to slow down.

Until we arrived at the foot of Daliang Mountain, we saw patches of tents.

Lu Ming turned to look at Sha Gong - Sha Gong seemed to know a lot about what was going on here.

Then he saw Shagun grinning.

"The evil spirit near Xuanshui City is not enough, so King Wu Tong proposed to build another refugee camp near Daliang Mountain."

Daliang Mountain was originally at the border of Liang Kingdom, and Liang Kingdom has become like that now, so Daliang Mountain has also become an excellent cultivation treasure land.

Just as he was thinking about it, a shout of killing suddenly came from the mountain, but it quickly subsided. Not long after, several sixth-level warriors walked out of the mountain carrying ghost heads and happily went to the Xichang office to receive their rewards.

Judging from the blood energy fluctuations on their bodies, they are all sixth-grade warriors, and they also practice the Blood Evil Star Art.

At the peak of the seventh level, there is no shortage of double elixirs, but it lacks true power.

There are many such people.

Lu Ming did not prohibit the spread of the sixth-level skill of the Blood Evil Star Art, and thus created a large number of sixth-level warriors who practiced the Blood Evil Star Art.

Seeing this bustling scene of people, Lu Ming suddenly took a breath.

"The People's War."

He murmured these five words, causing others to be confused.

This statement is a little ahead of the times for people in this world.

Lu Ming smiled and changed his words: "I said, well done."

The others all raised their hands and said, "I would also like to thank Gang Leader Lu for his kindness."

Qichuan smiled again and said: "Some warriors have set up monuments for Gang Leader Lu..."

After saying this, even with Lu Ming's cultivation, he couldn't help but blush.

Is it ok if I offer it?

But there was another thing that puzzled Lu Ming.

"Why weren't civilians evacuated?"

The People's War is just what Lu Ming felt... Fighting civilians in this world is of little use. It also depends on the number of strong people and high-end combat power.

In a third-grade battle, no matter how many middle- or low-grade warriors are involved, they cannot join in.

In response, Qichuan raised his eyebrows.

Just as he was about to say something, Lu Ming suddenly looked towards the mountain.

Over there, the golden swastika suddenly appeared like the scorching sun, and a huge palm fell from the sky with overwhelming power.

The power of the third grade, Tathagata Divine Palm.

The sixth one on the heavenly list, Kasyapa Vajra, is empty.

No one needed to explain, Lu Ming suddenly understood.

When the country is in trouble, help comes from all directions.

Those who came to help were not only Zhao Ziheng, Liaoyuan and other local masters, but also heavenly masters.

I just don’t know how many have come.

……

Passing through the border of the crowded Daliang Mountains, we officially entered the Daliang Mountains.

The concentration of evil spirit continues to increase, and the cultivation level of the warriors practicing here is also constantly improving.

From no rank, to ninth rank, to eighth rank, and finally to seventh rank.

About twenty kilometers deep into the mountain, the concentration of the evil spirit had climbed to a limit that a low-grade blood evil star could not digest.

Those who come and go are all middle-grade warriors, and ghosts sometimes appear.

The distinction between humans and ghosts is blurred here.

People hunting ghosts and ghosts killing people are happening all the time.

Lu Ming's face slowly turned cold.

He suddenly asked: "How many Liang people were left in Daliang Mountain before?"

Sha Gong was silent for a long time, but Lu Chi finally gave him a number.

"More than 300 million."

Starting from here and going forward, the evil atmosphere becomes so strong that ordinary people can't bear it.

The detonation of the Earthly Evil Life Tribulation Array was sudden, and the change in the density of the evil energy caught people off guard.

It can be concluded that these more than 300 million civilians have almost no chance of survival...

Shagun gritted his teeth and spat out a few words.

"Compared to ruthlessness, no one can compare with these devil brats from the Six Desire Demon Dao..."

If warriors still have a lot of humanity, then the humanity of monks is too weak.

Immortality and mortal isolation.

Immortal cultivators eat spiritual energy and hate turbid qi. Immortal cultivators with a little ambition will not mix with mortals.

Over time, my mentality changed.

Coupled with the disparity in power, they are almost not the same species, and differences naturally arise.

The so-called righteous immortal sect does not care about mortal matters.

The Demonic Sect is even more evil and only treats mortals as livestock for slaughter and raw materials for magic weapons.

The Six Desire Demon Dao is not without opponents in the northwest region. On the contrary, they have many enemies.

But even though the Demonic Path of Six Desires was causing so much trouble to the Liang Kingdom, no so-called righteous monks were seen intervening, which shows some of the background of the world of immortality.

"The Immortal Way values ​​life and privacy, immortality and selfishness."

Qichuan muttered like this, then looked at everyone and said softly: "Prince Lin said that."

Everyone nodded slightly and stopped talking about this topic.

Lu Ming, who was in the lead, suddenly raised his hand, and the invisible sword energy roared out and disappeared into the forest.

The howling of ghosts and wolves sounded quickly, followed by the sound of skin and flesh being ripped apart.

Soon, Lu Ming put down his hand and said softly.

"There are many ghosts here, many of them newly transformed."

The new ghost is not strong, only a sixth-grade ghost, and cannot withstand even an invisible sword energy. Although the two-star invisible sword energy is weak in killing power, it is not such that it cannot even kill sixth-grade ghosts.

After thinking about it, Lu Ming added something.

"Someone is refining ghosts in large quantities in the Daliang Mountains."

The faces of the people around him were ugly, but they also had expectations.

The Six Desire Demon Dao likes to play with this...

After releasing his sword energy again and clearing away all the evil spirits around him, Lu Ming rode forward, cautiously and slowly.

But the goal is also clear - it is the direction of Black City Walled City.

Over there is the source of the Earthly Evil Tribulation Formation, and also the place where Ling Pianmiao and Gu Huahua, two late-stage foundation-building monks, meet.

Not only that, the battlefield between Lin Tang and Leng Xie is also moving in the direction of Heicheng Walled City, and the golden Buddha light that lights up from time to time is also heading there.

At this moment, Lu Ming felt calm and his thoughts were clear.

If there was a chance, Lu Ming would have to go to the Black City Walled City to look for Mi Tao.

But at this time, too many foundation-building and third-grade people have been attracted there, and acting rashly is tantamount to death.

Although with Zangyun Yijian and Zhang Hai around, Lu Ming might be able to measure the power of the third level...

"Well, it's best to say goodbye."

Thoughts swirling in his mind, Lu Ming gave up the idea of ​​taking risks, but Zhang Hai's voice transmission suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Refining Qi into silk, using silk to control needles..."

Lu Ming frowned.

"This is……"

"It's our family... no, it's my Moon Flying Needle Technique."

"This skill is somewhat similar to Gang Leader Lu's invisible sword energy, and it may be possible to draw parallels."

Before he finished speaking, he saw Lu Ming's expression flicker, as if he had something to say and realized something.

As Zhang Hai said, the Moon Flying Needle Technique and the Invisible Sword Qi do have something in common.

By analogy, coupled with the transparent martial body that was neither high nor low, Lu Ming vaguely grasped an opportunity to rise to the stars in the invisible sword realm.

"But there is something else that Gang Leader Lu needs to know."

"What's the matter?"

"Then there are possible traces of Wang Tongcai."

Lu Ming suddenly became energetic when he mentioned this.

"where?"

Zhang Hai sent a message into the secret: "Daliang Mountain, Feng Sha Gang."

"It's also my second destination after completing my mission."

Lu Ming immediately frowned.

"What are you doing there?"

Daliang Mountain, Feng Sha Gang, Ling Piaomiao's lair.

At this moment, Ling Piaomiao has been restrained by the foundation-building demon cultivator of the Six Desires Demonic Path... Needless to say, now is indeed a good opportunity to raid Ling Piaomiao's lair.

But Lu Ming didn't think there was any point in stealing Ling Piaomiao's lair.

In response, Zhang Hai just shook his head: "I don't know either."

He is just a thug, not a person in charge. He obeys and does things, that's all.

Zhang Hai did not need to know, nor did he deserve to know, some secret inside information.

As his thoughts turned around, Lu Ming had made his decision.

"Observe the situation, it's important to save people."

We still have to go to Black City Walled City to see the situation first.

That Wang Tongcai is a clown, it won't be too late to kill him later.

……

It has been 16 years since Heichengzhai was established.

Correspondingly, the earth evil calamity formation has also been suppressed for 16 years.

This formation will attract evil spirits every day and every moment - not only the evil spirits in the Daliang Mountains, but also the evil spirits deep underground.

The former is supplementary and the latter is dominant. It is highly concealed and cannot be noticed by the mountain god Ling Piaomiao.

To store, to accumulate.

When the formation was activated, the evil spirit erupted instantly.

Years of accumulation once explodes, it will become a blockbuster even if it doesn't make a sound.

And this evil spirit is a great thing for those who practice the Six Desires, Heavenly Demon Path, especially the Evil Ghost Path and the Evil Path.

The path of evil ghosts requires using evil spirits to refine ghosts.

Doesn't it mean that evil spirits need to be formed and used to cast spells?

At this time, the mysterious formation that enveloped the entire Black City Walled City was the evil cultivator in the early stage of foundation building. Luo Yi was made of evil spirits.

He is presiding over the Earthly Evil Life Tribulation Formation and the Mystery Formation underground.

On the surface, in the Black City Walled City, in Mi Tao's courtyard, there was another foundation-building monk with chapped skin that looked like a ghost.

Huainan, an evil ghost Taoist cultivator, is also in the early stage of foundation building.

The masters of the Six Desire Demonic Way in Daliang Mountain are not only Gu Huahua Lengxie, but also another duo in the early stages of foundation building.

Four of them are in foundation building and overhaul, one is to contain Ling Piaomiao, one is to contain Lin Tang, one is in charge of the formation, and one is refining ghosts and controlling them.

The lineup is strong and has been arranged for many years.

What was supposed to be a foolproof situation has slowly escaped the control of the Six Desire Demonic Way.

"Why are there so many third-grade ones?"

Underground, Luo Yi frowned and muttered, a hint of coldness appeared on his handsome face.

　Thank you Wukong for the [-] rewards!Thanks to Ming のxieyue for the [-] rewards!Thanks to other book friends for the tips!thank you all!
