Patrol Captain

The coffin at Jiangjun Mountain appeared!

The ancestral mountain, which had been in turmoil, suddenly became quiet, with a sense of disbelief.

Everything that happened before seemed like a dream!
At this moment, Chen Yuan's eyes suddenly lit up, cold stars shot out, and the vague thoughts in his mind suddenly became clear.

General Mountain, Phoenix Nirvana, Tomb Mountain Buried Earth...

As this scene appeared, all these fragmented clues seemed to be linked together, pointing to those powerful beings who captured demons and slayed dragons in this world thousands of years ago.

And these existences are suspected to come from the residence of the gods mentioned by Huanlong - Baiyujing!

These people left behind a surprising back-up plan thousands of years ago, and no one knows what will happen next.

After some deduction in his mind, Chen Yuan decisively took back the Five Elements Heaven, leaving only the second divine treasure, the Wutong coffin.

Then, he flashed, stepped on the coffin, and rushed out of the mountain without saying a word.

This time, the fog in the mountains did not block the view. The entire cemetery was quiet and there were no more strange phenomena.

A few breaths later, a strong wind blew the curtains of the bronze chariot outside the mountain!
The bells under the sedan chair made a crisp tinkling sound.

The whole sedan chair sank slightly into the snow!
Lu Ming, who was waiting outside the sedan chair, was startled. He knew the general had returned. He raised his hands and looked a little suspicious.

"General, the commotion in the mountains just now..."

They were so close that even though the fog blocked their way, they could still see the bright flashes of spiritual light, the shocking riots, the shaking of the heavens and the earth, and they felt their hearts pounding.

What did the general encounter in that mountain that forced him to take action and quickly turn back!
"This mountain is strictly sealed off, and your soldiers are strictly prohibited from entering."

In the carriage, Chen Yuan didn't say much, his voice was calm, and it was impossible to tell whether he was happy or angry.

"Yes!"

"Also, go back to Fusi and do something!"

"Bring a group of death row prisoners and demons from the Sky Prison!" Chen Yuan's voice was faint and cold in the carriage.

Outside the carriage, Lu Ming's face became serious and he obeyed the order, "Yes"

As he spoke, he soared into the sky and headed towards the northeast!

At this moment, in the carriage, Chen Yuan touched his burning eyebrows, closed his third eye, and his pair of light golden eyes showed a thoughtful look.

After the phoenix tree coffin he got from Jiangjun Mountain appeared and suppressed the ominousness of the tomb mountain, he did not choose to explore deeper, but decisively chose to leave.

The ancestral mountain before us is alive. We are faced with that scene as soon as we enter, and no one knows what will happen when we go deeper.

Thinking about his own speculation, which might involve people and secrets from thousands of years ago, he chose not to take the risk!

If one knows the danger and still goes in, that is simply wishing he had a long life. As for the opportunities that may exist inside, they are not very attractive because he does not like taking risks, and he himself is the opportunity.

But for now, he still needs to verify what this mountain is like.

Have an idea in mind!
After reciting in his mind, Chen Yuan slowly lowered his eyes and closed them quietly to rest.

For a moment, the carriage was so quiet that the only sounds were the whistling wind outside, the clanging of bells, and the sound of horses kicking the ground.

About three hours later, Lu Ming came back with his troops escorting a large number of death row prisoners and demons.

They were brought in secret prison vans covered with layers of black cloth, and there were hundreds of them.

Brought from the sky!

When the black cloth was lifted, the figures of people and demons locked in steel chains and shackles appeared one by one.

"Let me go, I'm innocent!"

"What do you want to do by bringing me here? Let me go!"

"You bastards from the Daofu Division, let me go! I will eat you up when I come out!"

"…………"

When the black cloth was lifted, there were sounds of begging for mercy, fear, cursing, and roaring, which seemed noisy in the silent snowy forest.

At this time, Lu Ming, who was leading the troops to escort the prisoners, came to the sedan chair to report.

"General, according to your instructions, the people have been brought here. There are 93 death row prisoners and 27 demons!"

“It’s all here!”

The majority of them are on death row.

There is no other reason, because the prison of Daofusi is now overcrowded with death row prisoners. During the last purge by the imperial court, many families rebelled and were liquidated afterwards. They were convicted and their homes were confiscated by the Fusi, and as a result, a large number of people were thrown into the death row.

At this time, the curtain of the sedan chair was lifted and Chen Yuan walked out from inside.

In front of the sedan chair, with a murderous aura, the men in green armor standing on both sides turned around one by one, knelt on one knee and tapped the ground with one hand.

In the prison van in front of the emperor, pairs of eyes looked over with fear or shock and anger.

When the death row prisoners saw Chen Yuan walking out of the sedan chair, the restless sounds in their throats were immediately choked, their pupils suddenly contracted, their faces turned pale, and their bodies trembled with fear.

They knelt down one after another, their chains rattled, and they shouted,

"Lieutenant General Nine, spare my life!"

"We were implicated. We are loyal to you, so we are innocent."

"........."

Some cried out for injustice, while others sobbed and cried bitterly.

Many of the demons that were escorted here were those that were suppressed by the Fusi and had never seen Chen Yuan. A tiger demon with scars all over its body and fierce eyes swung its chains wildly and roared:

"Who the hell are you? Be careful or Ben Shan will tear you apart!"

As soon as the mountain lion finished speaking, Chen Yuan glanced over with his light golden eyes.

"boom"

This mountain beast at the Tianguan Daobing realm didn't even utter a scream before its humanoid body exploded and turned into a cloud of blood mist that splashed all around the cage.

Just one glance can kill Taoist soldiers and demons!

This frightened the death row prisoners and demons present into silence!
Chen Yuan looked around with an indifferent and expressionless look, and then the flesh between his eyebrows suddenly opened, with golden light flowing inside.

Then, he put his hand across his forehead, and a golden light turned into a bean-sized golden bead, hanging on his fingertips.

Immediately afterwards, Chen Yuan snapped his fingers, and golden light shot out towards the death row prisoners and demons.

A ray of golden light sank into the eyebrows of these people and demons and disappeared.

After doing all this, Chen Yuan looked at these frightened people and monsters with a dim gaze.
"I'll give you a chance to live. Run into this mountain. It's up to you whether you live or die. I won't interfere. If you can survive, congratulations on your freedom."

After saying this, he raised his hand and waved.

"clap clap"

Hundreds of fine steel cages were opened one after another, and the shackles and restraints on the people and demons were broken one after another.

The people and demons whose restrictions were lifted were all filled with surprise and doubt.

Is it the mountain in front of us?

Looking at the densely packed weapons and armor at the foot of the mountain, could this be a hunting game for these logging troops?

We are not fools, there are definitely pitfalls here.
Especially those death row prisoners who are familiar with the style of Jiu Zhonglang, they know that the man in front of them is cruel and would kill without blinking an eye.

Hesitate for a moment!
However, those demons had been tortured in the Heavenly Prison for a long time. When they saw the light of day again, their ferocity and savagery were released. Their bodies grew huge and they let out sharp roars.

"Since you dare to lift the ban, do you really think we are stupid? Split up and escape!" Immediately, a demon rode on the demonic wind and soared into the sky, and everyone started to flee.

This chaos immediately triggered a chemical reaction, humans and demons burst into spiritual light, soared into the sky, and disappeared into the vast snow and wind, trying to fish in troubled waters.

However, in the face of their chaos, the mountain-cutting soldiers below just watched with cold eyes, without any sign of stopping them.

Next second,
"puff"

"puff"

"puff"

In the sky, people and demons fleeing in both directions exploded one after another, staining the snowy sky with patches of blood.

The shrill screams came one after another.

The people and monsters who were trying to escape were horrified by this scene. Their hopes of getting away were shattered. There was only one way left, so they rushed into the ancestral mountain several miles ahead, which was shrouded in fog and snow!
Not long after, more than a hundred people and monsters, carrying Chen Yuan's incense mark, fled into the ancestral mountain in a panic!
Chen Yuan watched all this indifferently, then turned around and returned to the carriage.

Soon the place became quiet again.

The soldiers and armor outside stood in the wind and snow like sculptures.

Time passed slowly, the sky turned from bright to dark, and it would soon be dark. The soldiers standing outside were covered in snow and wind.

At a certain moment, Chen Yuan's voice was heard in the carriage.

"Lu Ming!"

Lu Ming waited quickly outside the car window, holding the handrail and obeying orders.

"Take someone back and bring a group of death row prisoners here. Only those with Tianguan cultivation level will be selected. Also, find the chief official of Beiliang Palace who came last night. There were quite a few people in their convoy yesterday, so it should be easy to find them. Ask this chief official to come over!"

"Yes!"

As the roar rose into the sky, Chen Yuan's eyes flickered like cold stars in the dim carriage.

All of his incense symbols were shattered during this period of time.

This means that all the people and demons who went in a few hours ago are dead.

It’s really a man-eating mountain!
If nothing unexpected happened, there would be many more fresh corpses in the graves on the mountain.

If Chen Yuan wants to know the details of this cemetery, he needs to be patient.

It's no loss for him.

It's just a way to kill some time.

After a few more hours, the sky had turned dark as ink.

The sound of horses neighing came from far away and gradually got closer.

Soon,

"boom"

"boom"

"boom"

The sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard.

Lu Ming escorted the prisoners back again.

"General, search the prison and bring all the prisoners sentenced to death. There are eighteen in total. Commander Pei is a little worried, so he will also escort them."

"In addition, Chang Changshi from the Beiliang Palace has also been invited!"

Soon, a strong and powerful voice was heard outside.

"At the invitation of Chen Longhu, Chang came to meet you!"

Inside the carriage, Chen Yuan opened his eyes, and then his figure flashed and appeared outside the carriage. He then saw the left chief official of the Beiliang Palace, and Pei Yanhu who came with the escort.

Met the inquiring gazes of the two people!

The wind and snow were blowing. Chen Yuan waved his hand without saying anything, then asked Lu Ming to lift the black cloth on the cell.

As the black cloth was lifted, eighteen cages appeared, containing the previous batch of death row prisoners and demons.

The people inside all had disheveled hair and were covered in blood, many of which were still fresh, and looked like they had suffered a lot of torture.

There are many people who used to be famous in Jinguan City and are the leaders of a certain faction.
Like the head of the Xia family, the second branch, and the head of the Sun family.
These people had previously obeyed Chen Yuan's orders, but during the purge of the Angel Patrols, they were eager to distance themselves from the Ninth Mountain. Not only did they join forces to list all of Chen Yuan's crimes and hand them over to the Angel Patrols' subordinates, they also participated in the operation to intercept the rioting soldiers of the Ninth Mountain that night. Everyone knows what happened next, and these people have since suffered this fate.

It is not so easy to let such people die. They are taken to the prison and tortured.

At this time, when these people saw Chen Yuan, some wailed for mercy, some acted like dead dogs, and some cursed him.

When Chang Jinchun saw this scene, his eyelids twitched, so he asked:

"The general asked me to come down. What's the matter?"

He was called to the foot of this ancestral mountain, and he guessed that it might be related to this, but he really couldn't guess it. Didn't this Dragon and Tiger General refuse to help last night?

However, the mind of this kind of person is hard to predict, so he asked cautiously.

Chen Yuan glanced at the man and said with a smile, "Your son disappeared in this mountain, and Chang Changshi doesn't seem to be in a hurry at all."

"Of course I am anxious. The safety of the prince is of great importance. After the general refused last night, I was anxious. I thought that even at the risk of my life, I would go into the mountain to explore. I didn't expect that the mountain would be blocked by the general's troops today. While I was thinking about it, I received the general's invitation. I was excited, but afraid that I would be impolite." The chief historian responded quickly and flawlessly, and gave a subtle compliment.

Unexpectedly, Chen Yuan nodded and said, "In that case, I will give you a chance!"

"General, what do you mean?"

"Yesterday you asked for help for your son. Although I refused, this mountain is near Jinguan City. Even your son got lost there. I must investigate the strangeness of it. The result..."

Having said this, Chen Yuan deliberately paused.

"What's the result?" Chang Jinchun's originally calm expression tightened.

"This mountain is much weirder than I expected. It's like a living thing. As soon as I stepped into it, I was restricted by powerful laws. The whole mountain was in turmoil. Even I couldn't go deeper. I could only stay for a short time before being forced to withdraw." Chen Yuan said half-truthfully.

"However, during my brief stay, I discovered that it was a mountain of graves. The people lying in the graves were probably those who had recently disappeared. They had all lost their spirits and auras. I don't know if they were dead or taken away. Your son might be trapped somewhere, but unfortunately I was restricted and couldn't find him."

"So, I found a group of death row prisoners and brought them into the mountain to find out the rules of this mountain, but as expected, all of them lost contact."

What Chen Yuan said was nine-tenths true and one-tenth false. Except that he left on his own initiative and was unwilling to go deeper, everything else was true.

When Chang Jinchun heard this, his face changed and his eyes flickered rapidly.

He was also thinking about the truth in Chen Yuan's words, but he felt that there was no need for a dignified dragon and tiger to lie to him about this matter.

His eyes fixed, and the steady demeanor slowly disappeared, and his aura gradually became fierce.

"What chance do you mean, General?"

Chen Yuan then turned his gaze and looked at the chief historian.
"I cannot enter, but this mountain is strange and unpredictable. I want to find out more about it, otherwise there may be more accidents. And you need to find your heir."

"I am now preparing to send this group of death row prisoners into the mountains. You can lead them. As for how to use them, you are free to do so. I will not take any responsibility."

"I have only one request. The next mark will be on you!"

"Ben will need to know whether you are still alive before deciding whether to send anyone else."

"How about it? Do you want to answer it?"

Chang Jinchun thought for a long time after hearing this.

"Take it!" (End of this chapter)
