Chapter 128 Yanmen Pass
Chapter 128 Yanmen Pass
The monsters he killed, the ghosts he eliminated, the animal skins he cut, the monster’s buttocks he boiled, all came out in exchange for about 600 strings of cash. However, after he bought three horses, he had almost nothing left.
There is no way. Yanmen horses are expensive, and in this wartime, the price has risen to two hundred strings of cash per horse, which is equivalent to the heads of ten Jindan people!
And if Tiedan hadn't used the demon-killing order as a token of authority, I'm afraid the horse dealer would not have been willing to sell the horse to him.
Although it is a bit expensive, the horses are really good. These are the descendants of war horses that were bred by crossbreeding the blood of demons when the General of Cavalry was preparing for the Northern Expedition. They are seven feet tall at the shoulder, can travel a thousand miles a day, and can tear through the wind and chase the moon. They have amazing endurance. The best thing is that they have eliminated the savage nature of the demon race, can understand people's hearts, obey military orders, and charge into mountain formations.
Back then, the Fairy Palace prepared 400,000 such fine horses, which rushed all the way along the Yinshan Mountains, almost completely suppressing the local horse breeds and occupying the ecological niche in the north. They are now commonly known as the Piaoqi, and can be regarded as a half-demon race artificially created by the Fairy Palace.
Well, the Fairy Palace is still the Fairy Palace, it is always so awesome in such strange places...
In short, three horses are enough to ride, and with the prepared demon meat jerky and cumin seasoning, and Tiedan as a guide, all preparations for leaving the country are ready.
But the problem now is that a Yuanying demon has blocked Yanmen Pass.
"Now that the weather is getting warmer, at this time of year in previous years, many foreign tribes that lived outside the Great Wall and submitted to the king would come to trade and sell livestock, but they have been nowhere to be seen. At first, I thought they were being held hostage by the Kan Kingdom or killed by the rebels, but the merchant groups that left the village also disappeared one after another. Later, we sent rangers and hunting scouts to patrol the north, only to find that there was a big monster occupying the mountains in the north and blocking the road."
"There were no such big beasts near Yanmen Pass. This monster probably crossed over from the north of Yinshan Mountain, the Guixu Pole. In the past, there was a large army of the Kan Kingdom guarding the border, and such monsters could not pass the Yinshan Pass and were killed by the army. But now..."
"Without a hundred thousand troops guarding the area, the situation in the north will become increasingly difficult. If this continues, the people of Kang and Gen will probably suffer disasters..."
There were also many merchants and travelers gathered in the inn, including many people with cultivation skills, so it was easy to get some words from this big monster.
To sum up, this monster must have taken advantage of the southward advance of the Kan Kingdom's army and came over from the extreme north, outside the Yin Mountains, and it is now in the Nascent Soul stage, because Yanmen has successively sent out three teams of cavalry, dozens of Jindan-level warriors, as well as passing Jindan mages and Xuanmen disciples to help, sweeping the ice field to hunt monsters, and has launched several expeditions against monsters.
Who would have thought that all of them would be defeated and killed, not even one came back alive, they were all killed by the demon.
Therefore, ordinary Jindan-level combat power is obviously unable to deal with this situation, and a Yuanying-level real person or a martial god must come forward.
But how many Yuanying realm masters are there in this world? Now, probably only the general of Yanmen Pass is a real Yuanying realm master, and he is also good at martial arts and can easily defeat a forty or fifty level Yuanying realm master with one punch.
But as I said before, the general must stay in Yanmen and cannot move lightly. What's more, the big monster is afraid of the existence of such a killing god in Yanmen, so he is blocking the pass and dare not continue to move south.
If the general really rashly went out to eliminate the monster, what if this beast took the opportunity to cross the Yanmen Pass and head south to the Genzhou Plain? That would really be a disaster.
Tiedan grew up in that kind of place, so he naturally knows it very well.
There are so many big monsters in the north of Yinshan Mountain and the Beiji Guixu.
In that kind of place, the weak only have food, the Nascent Soul stage is the basic configuration for survival, and there are countless God Transformation stages.
Moreover, the monsters outside are quite different from those in the Central Plains.
There are ways to practice...
Yes, when the Immortal Lord wiped out the demon clan, he did not want to kill them all and eliminate the trouble forever.
However, the ancient immortal army pursued the remnants of the demon clan and drove them all the way to the ends of the earth, the end of the world, the extremely cold ice field with biting winds, the bottomless seabed, and the mountains and wild ridges full of miasma. Given the strength of the immortal guards at that time, most of the troops could not go any further. If they continued to pursue, they might lose their advantage in numbers and be surrounded by demons.
Yes, the Immortal Venerable himself is extremely powerful and invincible. He can even rush into the Demon Capital alone, break the Demon City, and challenge an entire clan single-handedly.
But the problem is that the demons are not fools. They can't beat them but still try to fight the Immortal Venerable's fist. As long as everyone scatters and runs for their lives, even if the Immortal Venerable is very powerful, he can't kill all the demons in the mountains...
Therefore, the conquests of the generations of immortals were temporarily stopped, and they established their capital in the Nine Continents, shocked all directions, and established the Immortal Palace. However, the heritage of the demon race was not completely exterminated, but was taken to the demon realms in the far corners of the world, such as the north of the North Pole and the south of the South China Sea.
Later, humans and demons fought back and forth. When the Fairy Palace was strong, the army would go out to plow the courtyards and destroy the caves, break the mountains and cut down the temples. When the Fairy Palace was weak in internal fighting, or was beaten to the ground by the Demon Sect, the demons from all directions also counterattacked, and the demon tide invaded and brought chaos to the human world.
This cycle repeats itself over and over again, and neither the human race nor the demon race can destroy the other. It can only be said that the current situation is gradually entering a trend of the rise of the demon race.
Tiedan asked about the situation in detail and had a general idea in his mind. He left the inn and went to find Zhen Baiyu next to the stable.
Originally, Bai Yu was pestering him to teach him how to ride, but Tiedan was too lazy to pay attention to him.
How easy is it to teach her how to ride a horse? Besides, she is a saint. With just a glance, she can tame three military horses, making them as obedient as big rabbits. She can just learn by herself.
Then he went to the stable and saw Zhen Baiyu riding on a horse, talking to two men in cloaks and leather jackets.
Oh, you want to fight again?
Tiedan held the sword and walked silently behind the two men. Baiyu hurriedly said, "Brother, these two are brothers from Hengshan. They are also here to exorcise the monster."
Hengshan!
Tiedan was startled, put away his sword and greeted the two men.
"Guangxia Mountain Iron Egg."
"Hengshan Liu Zhaoyan"
"Liu Changqing of Hengshan"
These two young men have regular facial features, handsome eyebrows, starry eyes and sword-like brows, and a strong aura. They are obviously people who practice Qi cultivation and are men of virtue. They look like a pair of twins, and are about the same age and realm. They are both in the early stage of Jindan and have come out to gain experience.
But in terms of seniority, they are actually uncle and nephew. Obviously, the Hengshan Liu family is also a large family, and an extraordinary one at that, with secret techniques of immortality passed down from generation to generation. It is obvious that there are more than one or two immortals in the family.
Perhaps it was because of the Liu family's background that this time he was able to meet two people who did not draw their swords to rob people and could be talked to in a friendly manner.
And after chatting, they seemed to be more interested in horses than Zhen Baiyu...
Well, because those three cavalry horses were all precious dragon horses carefully selected by Tiedan, and with the enlightenment of Baiyu and the bond with the saint, they suddenly showed extraordinary temperament.
Then, the Liu brothers passed by and saw Bai Yu venting his anger on the three divine horses, training them to practice equestrianism and directing them to jump around like in a circus. They were amazed and came to discuss whether they could buy the horses.
"Why don't you two go directly to the horse market? Just say you want to exorcise the monster, and I think the Yanmen Army will be able to give you two horses, right?"
Liu Chaoyan was ashamed.
"We went there twice, but they recognized us and refused to sell to us."
"twice?"
Tiedan's eyes became sharp.
"Have you two encountered the monster?"
Liu Changqing nodded.
"Yes, that monster came and went like the wind, and it was indeed difficult to deal with. The first time we were not prepared enough, it ripped open our horses' bellies and broke their legs, and we were unable to catch up with it."
Liu Zhaoyan,
"The second time we bought a few more as backup, but it was even smarter. It lured us deep into the mountains and ate all the horses when it came up. We had no choice but to walk back, and the owner refused to sell us..."
They are so powerful that not only did they chase the Nascent Soul monster and beat it, they also forced it to escape from the fight?
Tiedan is curious.
"I wonder what kind of monster it is?"
Liu Changqing said,
"This beast has a human face and a sheep's body. Its eyes are under its armpits, it has tiger teeth and human claws, and it sounds like a baby. It is called the roe owl. It can control the four evil spirits of Shengang, Xuanming, Zixia, and Guichen. It needs to be defeated with the Chisha Dao method."
Liu Chaoyan said,
"This demon has a domineering body, with bones as strong as steel, and is impenetrable to swords and stones. He moves as fast as the wind, and is very powerful. He can also fly and hide underground, and ordinary people can't escape his claws at all.
Moreover, this monster has a Yuanshen secret skill. It cries like an infant and makes people lose their souls. If you don't have the Yuanshen realm or a powerful magic weapon to guard the divine palace, you will be frightened at best and killed at worst. If you are pounced by the beast's fangs, you will definitely die."
Liu Changqing said,
"But its eyeball is a weak spot. We have the Supreme Purity Divine Light to protect us, so we are not afraid of its evil magic. We also used the Heavenly Pillar Sword Technique to destroy its left eye under its armpit, which has seriously injured it."
Liu Chaoyan sighed.
"But we failed to hit it with one strike and let it escape. It will not dare to fight us head-on again..."
After hearing this, Tiedan couldn't help but look at Baiyu.
These two are so powerful... I want to kill them...
White jade,???
