Chapter 99 Three People Guarding a City
Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao climbed up the city wall, but they were already out of breath.
Both of them have many questions in their hearts.
"You are guarding here?" Zhang Sheng asked, his face full of excitement.
This is the place where the Central Plains fights to the death! Of the 180,000 cities, one third have already been reduced to desolate places.
The City of No Return is also considered half a Jedi.
For more than ten years, Daxia has been unable to gather an army and send it here.
Qi Yuan held the broken sword and said with some regret: "It's been a while, but unfortunately... I haven't encountered the evil spirits."
"You are not from Da Xia, but a ranger?" Zhang Sheng looked at the city wall without the Da Xia military flag and understood instantly.
In this world, there are still many knights who are willing to go to the Central Plains to fight.
Most of these rangers are practitioners.
Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao are not real practitioners at all, they can only be considered as second-rate ones.
Only half of the practitioners came with the army this time.
Unfortunately, they all died at the hands of the evil spirit.
"I guess he's a ranger!" Qi Yuan did not deny it.
"Can I plant Daxia's flag here?
This means that Wugui City is still under the control of Daxia." Zhang Sheng looked at Qi Yuan expectantly.
"Yes." Qi Yuan looked at the two NPCs with an inexplicable expression.
It was obvious that the auras of these two NPCs were already very weak and they were not far from death.
But the two of them did not have any fear before death, but were very excited.
Chen Jiao, who was standing by, heard Qi Yuan's permission, so he used his one arm to pull out the blood-stained, wrinkled military flag from his clothes on his chest and smoothed it out carefully.
Zhang Sheng was also helping, and the two of them seemed to be doing something very solemn.
They were clearly just planting the general flag on the top of the city wall, but the two of them were so busy that they were out of breath.
The wind blew strongly, the dust flew, and the military flags fluttered.
The two looked at the flag with longing in their eyes: "I wonder how long this flag can stand upright."
"It's a pity that General Yuan couldn't see the military flag planted on the top of Wugui City." Zhang Sheng sighed.
General Yuan is the general who leads the Song Camp.
Facing the siege of hundreds of demons, he killed dozens of enemies and finally died of exhaustion. When he died, his eyes were still open, looking in the direction of Wugui City.
Zhang Sheng knew that General Yuan was a nobleman of Daxia and had met the emperor.
Before coming, General Yuan once said that the military flag could not be planted on the top of Wugui City.
If Daxia loses Wugui City for twenty years, Daxia will no longer exist.
Daxia will be fully incorporated into Dasui and will guard Galan City together with Dasui.
The two sighed, and then looked at Qi Yuan: "My dear hero, where are the evildoers in Wugui City?"
"Many of them were wandering around, and I killed them all." Qi Yuan sat on the city wall, seemingly killing time out of boredom.
In fact, he was also carefully looking at and comprehending the skills he had acquired in the Canglan Realm.
One day in Canglan Realm is equivalent to ten years here. The time difference in this game must be used well.
It can be said that the "Qi Yuan Sutra" he had newly stitched together, apart from being able to be used for cultivation, is not a source of nourishment and has problems everywhere.
Not only will your memory deteriorate, but your mind will also become confused.
He was deepening his understanding and reducing the loopholes in the Qi Yuan Jing.
He will only take action when evil spirits appear, and usually he seems to be sitting on the top of the city wall.
"There are probably hundreds of demons wandering around Wugui City. Are you a cultivator?" Chen Jiao couldn't help but ask, "What realm are you in?"
Zhang Sheng quickly glared at Chen Jiao.
Chen Jiao then realized that he had been rude and shouldn't have asked about a cultivator's realm.
"Level 49, very weak." Qi Yuan did not hide it.
Chen Jiao was stunned when he heard this.
Zhang Sheng felt that Qi Yuan was unwilling to reveal his identity and strength.
Night falls quickly.
The whole world is about to go dark.
Qi Yuan looked up at the sky; it was pitch black.
"Hey, why are there no stars in the sky in this world?"
After arriving at Wugui City, Qi Yuan discovered that this world was as dark as ink at night.
There were no stars and no starlight.
"There are stars in the sky? What does that mean?" Zhang Sheng was a little confused and didn't understand what Qi Yuan meant.
Qi Yuan understood roughly what he said.
There are no stars in the sky of this world.
Could it be that all the stars in the sky have been eaten by humans?
Thinking of this, Qi Yuan became a little excited.
"It's nothing. It's dark now. You are not monks and cannot see with your eyes. Go find a place to sleep." Qi Yuanren was very nice and gave a kind reminder.
"Okay." Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao went down the city wall.
After walking down the last step, the two turned around in tacit understanding, raised their heads and took a deep look at the Great Xia military flag in the night.
…
The next day, it was dawn.
Qi Yuan was still sitting on the city wall, comprehending the skills of the Canglan Realm.
Sometimes, he would glance sideways into Wugui City and see two breathless men moving the white bones in the city and burying them.
Both of them were seriously injured and it looked like they wouldn't live for many days.
As a result, corpses are constantly being moved here.
In the evening, Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao climbed up the city wall. They were both panting as they carried a large wooden box up.
"Young man, would you like to drink some wine?" The wooden box was full of wine.
When the wine jar was opened, the aroma of wine was strong, with a sour taste mixed with the aroma of wine.
When he was on Blue Star, Qi Yuan didn't drink any alcohol due to his illness.
He also doesn't have the habit of drinking regularly.
"Thank you both, I don't drink. I go crazy when I drink." Qi Yuan refused the two.
“Alas, this wine has the unique fragrance of our Daxia.
Generally, when a daughter is born in our family, we would bury several jars of daughter incense.
It will be taken out only when the marriage takes place.
Normally, we can't drink it at all. Only the soldiers who come to Wugui City like us will have some people line up to send us wine when we go to war." Chen Jiao said, and poured a jar of Nv'erxiang into his mouth, "If you don't drink it now, you won't be able to drink it anymore."
Zhang Sheng also picked up the wine jar and gulped down the wine: "If you don't drink it now, no one will drink it."
The entire city wall was filled with the smell of alcohol.
After drinking, Zhang Sheng walked up to Qi Yuan and said, “Young man, I have found many good things in the city.
This is a blood-activating pill, this is a blood-nourishing pill, and this is a healing medicine. They should be useful to you, young man. I'll bring some up."
Qi Yuan looked at the bottles and cans Zhang Sheng took out and said, "You two are seriously injured. Use the healing medicine here. You can probably live one or two more days."
"Thank you for your kindness, young man." Zhang Sheng smiled shyly upon hearing this, "But our two worthless lives can probably only be exchanged for one or two evil spirits. These pills will still be useful to you, young man."
Qi Yuan reached out his hand and took the blood-nourishing pills away: "You can take the rest, I don't need them."
"Young man..." Zhang Sheng wanted to persuade him again.
"Humph, you have bad intentions. Giving me healing medicine is a curse for me to get hurt?
These evil spirits, can they hurt me?" Qi Yuan looked down on the evil spirits, "You are afraid of the evil spirits, but I think they are very cute, they are all experience babies."
When Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao heard this, they both found Qi Yuan's words a little difficult to understand, and they did not force the medicine on Qi Yuan.
The two could only cough and say: "Young man is worthy of being a young man."
The two men sat on the top of the city wall, drinking and chatting.
“I don’t know when the demon army will appear here.”
"Unfortunately, I don't know how long Daxia's military flag can be kept flying."
"Young man, why don't you leave now before the evil spirits come?
With your strength, you are at least a high-level commander. If you leave Wugui City and go to other cities, you may still have a chance to survive."
In the wind world.
The classification of monks is very simple, they are divided into the lower level, the first level, the second level, the third level, the fourth level, and the fifth level.
The first realm is called the Commander; the second realm is called the Overlord, the ruler of a region; the third realm is called the Guardian of the Country, one person can guard a country; the fourth realm is called the Land Myth, a god-like figure;
The fifth level is called the Supreme, the most powerful being in the world.
Rumor has it that among the 180,000 cities, some are guarded by supreme beings.
A city like that is indestructible and evil cannot enter.
"I am the governor of Wugui Town, so I will not leave."
Of course Qi Yuan would not leave.
The longer you defend, the higher the reward.
When he was in the Moon-Watching Continent, he could gain experience by killing monsters.
But if you want to get treasures of the level of Heavenly Dao Fragment, you need to complete the dungeon.
The demons here smell good, but they only provide Qi Yuan with experience.
If you want higher rewards, you have to defend the City of No Return.
"Once the Great Xia army flag is hoisted over Wugui City, the demons will know the news within a day, and within five days, the demon army will arrive here." Zhang Sheng said.
Of course, even without raising the military flag, the demons would still know about the situation in Wugui City, but it would be later.
When Qi Yuan heard this, he was stunned: "If we don't plant the military flag, won't the demons send new ones here?"
He has been waiting here for the demon for so long, but he didn't see it. Is it because he didn't plant the military flag?
"Yes, but it will be slower." Zhang Sheng didn't understand why the young man didn't know this, so he immediately gave a detailed introduction.
"So, as long as the military flag is there, the demonic army will arrive within five days?" Qi Yuan muttered to himself.
In this way, he can control the entry and exit time of the demon army based on the military flags.
"That's probably it." Zhang Sheng replied.
Qi Yuan looked at the two of them with a hint of greed in his eyes.
The two felt their heartbeats suddenly speed up, and then they heard Qi Yuan say, "Do you have any extra military flags here? The more the better."
"Yes... yes." Zhang Sheng didn't understand, but still took out a few military flags.
These military flags were all found in the city and were put away.
"Young man, what do you need so many military flags for?" Zhang Sheng couldn't help but ask.
"If a military flag is not used, I will have to guard here for a long time." Qi Yuan said truthfully.
One day in the outside world is nearly ten years in the game.
He must use this time to practice hard and improve his skills.
Zhang Sheng was silent after hearing this.
I wanted to persuade Qi Yuan to leave here, but I couldn't say the words anymore.
Chen Jiao who was standing next to him didn't think too much about it. He drank his wine in big gulps, and from time to time he showed a heroic look on his face: "I never thought that I, Chen Jiao, could die in this city with a man like Young Hero."
For him, the evil army was approaching and they would all die in this city.
Qi Yuan rolled his eyes at Chen Jiao and said, "You will die, but I won't.
Where are there any players who died completely in the game?"
As for the NPCs... it's a pity that they don't refresh and revive at fixed locations.
Zhang Sheng quickly grabbed the corner of Chen Jiao's clothes and said, "Young man, you have unparalleled skills. You will surely kill the evil army!"
Seeing this, Chen Jiao also came to flatter him.
Zhang Sheng said this, but in his heart he admired Qi Yuan very much.
The demon army is coming with great force, but the young hero has no intention of leaving.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
This made Zhang Sheng feel mixed emotions.
Knowing that a city cannot be defended, we still defend it to the death.
Such courage is truly admirable.
…
Daxia.
Yuan Mansion.
The emperor is only sixteen years old, but he has already ruled Daxia for four years.
In the past four years, he has worked hard to balance the four parties, organize an army of monks, and finally built the Songzi Camp, led by General Yuan, and sent Wugui City.
At this time, the young face of the Great Xia Emperor showed hope: "Marquis Yuan has lived up to my trust. The Great Xia army flag has finally been planted on the wall of Wugui City."
One hundred and eight thousand cities are both cities and formations.
Whenever a military flag is placed on the city wall, the Dragon-Suppressing Bell in the Great Xia Palace will ring nine times.
If the flag falls, there will be a sound.
Some time ago, the dragon bell in Daxia Town rang nine times.
The Emperor of Daxia ran to the ancestral temple without even having time to put on his shoes.
Now, Wugui City has returned to Daxia.
This also indicates that Daxia will have another twenty years of national fortune.
Otherwise, after losing the city for twenty years, the Great Xia Kingdom would be destroyed and incorporated into the Great Sui.
Although it was incorporated into Dasui, it was also used to resist the evil army.
But who wants to be cannon fodder? Who wants to be completely exploited?
The emperor's face was full of excitement, but when he saw the tears in Yuan Hou's wife's eyes, his excitement dissipated.
The military flag of Daxia was planted on Wugui City, but when would Daxia’s soldiers return?
In a few days, the demon army will attack Wugui City again. How many days can Wugui City hold out? The Emperor of Daxia did not want the people of Daxia to hear the bell of Wugui City being broken again.
…
In the next few days, Qi Yuan often saw Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao staggering to bury the corpses in the city.
The breath of the two people was getting weaker and weaker, almost hanging by a thread.
However, both of them seemed to be holding their breath and did not fall down.
"Hehe, if the demon army doesn't come, I will die." Chen Jiao sat on the city wall, cursing.
Zhang Sheng also knew that his time had come: "Before I die, I must kill a demon no matter what!"
This way you won’t lose money.
In the last few days, the two men did not bury the corpses, but stayed alive to guard the military flag of Daxia.
After an unknown amount of time, the earth began to shake.
The two men on the city wall were suddenly cheered up.
The two of them stood up with difficulty, stood on the city wall, and looked at the yellow sand filling the sky in the distance.
In the yellow sand, about seven or eight hundred huge monsters were rushing towards this side.
It was like a giant elephant charging, with dust flying everywhere.
If such a powerful army of demons rushed into the mortal army, the army would be torn apart in an instant.
With such a powerful demon, Wugui City is simply impossible to defend.
Zhang Sheng showed no fear at all. He picked up the bowl and said, "Drink this wine with me!"
Chen Jiao also drank the wine in one gulp.
The wine bowl fell to the ground with a crack and broke into seven or eight pieces.
"Son of a bitch, these demons are finally here!"
Zhang Sheng looked up at Qi Yuan and a look of regret flashed across his mind.
This young man has not left and has stayed here. Now, he has no chance to leave.
Chen Jiao cursed and looked at the demons running wildly, his voice filled with tears: "I want to go home. I came here in a hurry and forgot to castrate the pig I sent to my neighbor Widow Li..."
Qi Yuan looked at the demon below with a hint of smile in his eyes.
"Is it finally here?"
He looked at the demon army below, holding a broken sword, and stood on the city wall.
He thought for a moment and shouted, "I am the governor of Wugui City. Anyone who dares to enter Wugui City will be killed!"
The sound was loud and fell into the camp of the demon army.
The demon army turned a deaf ear and rushed directly towards Qi Yuan.
Seeing this, Qi Yuan showed a cold expression: "Although you are crazy and don't understand human language, you still make it difficult for me by not giving me face."
He jumped down from the city wall with the broken sword in his hand.
The thirty-meter-high city wall looked like flat ground to Qi Yuan.
Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao were excited when they saw this scene.
"It's a pity that we are not practitioners, otherwise we would have to jump down and fight to the death with that young man!" Zhang Sheng sighed.
They are just second-rate practitioners who have learned some superficial skills.
If you jump into a city like this, you will surely die.
"Young man, please kill the enemies. The two of us will accompany you on the road to the underworld!" Zhang Sheng yelled at the top of his lungs.
This voice seemed to have used up all his strength. After shouting, his whole spirit was a little depressed.
"With three of us as companions, I'm not alone!" Chen Jiao also roared loudly.
Qi Yuan was speechless when he heard the voice. He slowly said, "You sit on the city wall and watch me kill these monsters one by one!"
"Before I die, I am happy to see the young hero killing the evil spirits. This life... is worthwhile!" Zhang Sheng's voice was intermittent.
At this time, Qi Yuan was holding a long sword.
Seven or eight hundred demons rushed towards him like galloping elephants.
Dust was flying, and all I could see was yellow sand.
Qi Yuan stepped on the yellow sand, his long hair fluttering and his sleeves rustling.
Heaven-slashing sword technique! At this moment, Qi Yuan used his ultimate skill.
Although he is only level 49 now, his previous major and minor skills still exist.
He was actually a little curious now.
Now, can he awaken other skills every ten levels, or every thirty levels?
Putting this emotion aside, Qi Yuan devoted himself to killing the enemy.
"kill!"
Qi Yuan jumped up, and an extremely domineering broken sword fell from the sky.
I saw a sword falling from top to bottom, like a towering statue falling.
Boom! The sword energy surged, splitting the yellow sand in half. Hundreds of evildoers were swept by the sword energy, their bodies shattered and bloody.
The dead demon turned into nothingness in an instant.
With one sword, ninety-seven demons were killed.
Qi Yuan held up the broken sword and slowly walked towards the demon army: "Little monsters, you should lower your heads and line up for me to chop you down."
On the city wall, Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao widened their eyes.
What did they see? Killing nearly a hundred evil spirits with one sword? This kind of... strength... is too terrifying.
This is a bullshit leader. This is clearly a regional overlord! A regional overlord can be directly granted a title of nobility if he goes to Daxia!
Zhang Sheng and Chen Jiao were extremely shocked.
They never imagined that this somewhat strange young man was actually a legendary overlord.
The two looked and saw Qi Yuan rushing into the army of demons.
The broken sword in his hand seemed like the sharpest divine weapon in the world.
Every demon that passed by was struck by the sword.
"kill!"
In Tianjue, Qi Yuan killed countless people.
In the Dijue, he also fought a bloody battle with nearly three thousand evil demons from outside the domain.
His skills have been honed to perfection.
Especially the skills of killing monsters.
The demons at this time formed a large army, and they were much easier to kill than the scattered demons wandering in the city at first.
The sword comes out like a flying dragon, and all evildoers will be killed!
Kill, kill, kill!
The sky was filled with yellow sand, blinding Qi Yuan's eyes.
He alone with a broken sword guarded the isolated city.
Charged into the demon army, in and out three times.
Anyone who sees it, anyone who touches it, and anyone who makes a sound will be killed.
The powerful army of demons was killed by him alone without leaving a single one.
As dusk fell, Qi Yuan, holding a broken sword and his clothes spotlessly clean, looked at the last injured white-bone demon who was trying to escape.
"Don't run away, fight me squarely!"
"Oh, you're injured, you don't want to fight, right?"
"The blood-activating pill will heal your wounds."
"I forgot that you are bones and cannot live with blood."
With a flash of sword light, the last white-bone demon died under his sword.
Qi Yuan picked up the broken sword and blew it gently, just like he did in the past, blowing off the blood drops left on the sword from the battle.
The wind and sand blew, Qi Yuan stood on the vast desert and turned back.
Unfortunately, there is only the desert, no lonely smoke, and no setting sun over the long river.
