Chapter 290

Chen Hai suspected that the demon temple had more elite combat power lurking near Lucheng, but between Jueling on the north slope of wushao mountain, he and Qi Hanjiang chased two or three hundred miles east in the direction of Taoist green and black Jiao's escape, and soon found that there was no trace of black Jiao flying again.

Even though Heijiao and other spirit beasts don't have huge scales or wings, they only rely on their natural talent of flying clouds and fog, and their speed of flying against the wind is not slightly weaker than that of ordinary spirit birds. It's really easy to get rid of Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang. They just move and fight hand to hand in a narrow space. They are not as flexible as some powerful martial arts, but there are several martial arts that dare to learn from Chen Hai, Fight head-on with black Jiao for two hours?

Chen Hai is a freak who can't be measured by common sense.

Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang can still chase two or three hundred miles to the East. The main reason is that Heijiao and Chen Hai were badly hurt in a fierce battle. They can't worry too much about running away in a hurry. The huge demon body flying across the sky will inevitably drive a strong airflow. There are also hot Jiao blood spilled, which will leave some traces on the years old glacier on the top of Jueling on the north slope.

When Taoist Qingyi wanted to hide the traces, he only needed to pull up the black Jiao's flying height by more than 1000 meters, or shuttle through the mountains along the wind, so there would be no more clues left.

When Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang returned to Lukai gorge, they saw Du Linan riding with more than ten horses, anxiously looking at the traces left by yesterday's fierce battle in front of the stone bank under Lukai gorge.

Seeing Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang coming back, Du Linan breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Lucheng was closed last night and no one could get in and out. We stayed in the guild hall all night and came here when the city gate was opened at dawn -- why didn't the national envoy be at the source of Luhe last night?"

Du Linan's cultivation in the later stage of the spirit realm is not as much as the five surnames of Lucheng have so many ears and eyes outside the city. He saw the thunder and lightning in luheyuan on a stormy night. He just guessed that there was a fierce battle here, but he was not sure that Chen Hai must have been ambushed by a strong enemy. Just at dawn, he galloped over by a fast horse to see what happened.

Seeing that Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang were safe and sound, Du Linan breathed a sigh of relief and mistakenly thought that Chen Hai was not in luheyuan yesterday. The fierce battle last night had nothing to do with Chen Hai.

"It's not us, who is it?" Qi Hanjiang said unhappily. Considering that the war last night was really dangerous, even if Du Linan didn't snitch, he felt that Du Linan was suspected of being overlooked.

Du Linan didn't have time to pay attention to Qi Hanjiang's rejection of him. When he heard Qi Hanjiang say that yesterday's war was indeed Chen Hai's encounter with a strong enemy in luheyuan, he was shocked to see that there was a broken rock and avalanche nearby. It's hard to imagine how fierce the war last night was.

When Heijiao fled, the injury was not very serious, but the huge demon body was cut by Chen Hai in many places, leaving mottled blood between the falling rocks and residual cliffs. It is not difficult to imagine how powerful the enemy Chen Hai met yesterday.

"The demon temple may have more elite lurking nearby."

Chen Hai saw that several other people were nearby to observe the traces left by yesterday's fierce battle. At this time, he would not blame Du Linan for his dereliction of duty and asked Du Linan to talk in a corner that can avoid others' eyes and ears.

Firstly, Du Linan is a disciple of taiweizong, and there is no need to be responsible for him. Secondly, various signs show that so many elite disciples lurking in the demon temple near Lucheng are mainly aimed at taiweizong and Dong family. Du Linan only sets up spiritual cultivation in the later stage, and the hands of people who can be called in Lucheng are very limited. It is really normal that the demon temple can hide from Du Linan.

Chen Hai tells Du Linan about the appearance of black Jiao and Taoist Qingyi.

"Yue Yi Ran!" Du Linan didn't find out the details of the two strong men lurking in Lucheng, mainly because they didn't show up publicly after they entered Lucheng with the caravan of Changle City Master's residence, but Du Linan still knew the important figures of the demon temple like the back of his hand, "Yue Yiran is a disciple of Zhou Nan, the Dragon leader of the demon temple. He was originally a child of Yue, a small clan in Tahe oasis. He had the courage to catch tigers and resist Jiaos when he was young. He entered the demon temple to practice. It is said that he opened up his ancestral hole to know the sea and stepped into the Mingqiao territory at the age of 20. He is regarded as a candidate who is most likely to continue to be the leader of the demon temple. Even if it is only 70 or 80 years old, the demon Jiao he is still a thousand thousand people in Dajin mountain It's a strange species that can't be seen in years. Unexpectedly, it was Yue Yiran and the monster under his seat who ambushed the envoy here yesterday. "

Du Linan was even more shocked when he knew the details of these important figures Yue Yiran. Unexpectedly, Chen Hai and Qi Hanjiang could beat Yue Yiran and the demon Jiao back. This is something that people in the shortcut Dan realm can't do.

Yue was a small clan in Tahe. In his early years, he was bullied and bullied by a big clan, and almost destroyed the clan. After Yue Yiran's cultivation was successful, a man Yujiao broke into the family land of the enemy family, killed the family leader in the later stage of Mingqiao territory, and then fled.

That was three years ago. At this time, Yue Yiran's cultivation will only be more profound.

Of course, in addition to Chen Hai's shocking defeat of Yue Yiran, Du Linan's headache was his previous misjudgment. He suddenly felt thorny and said, "Yue Yiran has arrived in Lucheng. There will never be only three or five hundred elite hidden in the demon temple in Lucheng!"

Du Linan's investigation for so long can generally confirm that there are three or five hundred elite in Lucheng, which are directly controlled by the demon temple or the Tibetan and Qiang state. However, these three or five hundred elite are mainly based on the martial cultivation of tongxuan territory, which is only equivalent to three or five hundred Taoist yamen soldiers.

At present, it seems that these elites can still affect the situation of Lucheng. In particular, there are two figures at the peak of Mingqiao territory and even half step daodan territory hidden behind the scenes. However, when the elite army and the Royal Army of the Western Qiang state under Ye Qinglin arrive at Lucheng, the role these three or five hundred elites can play will become extremely limited.

Therefore, in the previous strategy, Du Linan also wanted to help Chen Hai win the support of Zhao or Zhou, and win Lucheng with lightning speed.

At this time, it seems that the elite hidden in the demon temple near Lucheng are far beyond their imagination.

The demon Temple didn't take action in advance, probably because it believed that taiweizong and Dong would interfere in the civil war of Western Qiang. They wanted to take Lucheng as a trap and ambush it only after taiweizong and Dong's reinforcements stepped into the trap!

To understand this, Du Linan was also frightened into a cold sweat.

Even if taiweizong and Hexi Dadu's Imperial Guard would not send troops directly, if Jingjue army and ye's Royal Army were ambushed in Lucheng and suffered heavy losses, he would not want to make a head start in Hexi and taiweizong all his life.

The biggest problem now is where the elite of the demon temple is hidden and how it lurks near Lucheng?

There are eye liner in other cities of Pinglu, and duer Nan did not find too many traces.

"The five surnames of Lucheng must have been turned to the demon temple to help the elite disciples who hide the demon temple!" Qi Hanjiang said.

The neutrality of the five surnames in Lucheng is the result of the mutual containment of the five surnames. Not every family wants to remain absolutely neutral. Du Linan also suspects that Zhang's family in Lucheng may have fallen secretly to the demon Temple long ago, but he is restrained by the other four families and can't make a public statement. However, he doesn't think that the elite of the demon temple are hidden in Zhang's farm outside the city, saying: "The demon temple is not famous for refining utensils, alchemy and seal characters, but it has the method of controlling animals. Almost every elite disciple has trained a spirit beast or spirit bird with the same spirit since childhood -- just like the black Jiao in front of Yue Yiran. Zhang also has several farms outside the city, governing more than 100000 mu of grain fields. It is easy to hide two or three hundred people, or even two or three thousand people, but If you want to hide two or three hundred ferocious monsters from other people's vision, it is impossible that there are no clues. "

Speaking of this, Du Linan saw Chen Haizheng frowning at the peaks south of Lukai gorge. He was also shocked and asked uncertainly: "the national envoy also thought that the elite disciples of the demon temple were likely to lurk in the mountains south of Lukai gorge?"

Chen Hai nodded. He thought of the incident of the red eyebrow sect in qintongshan.

At that time, although there were millions of refugees gathered in qintongshan, no matter how many refugees there were, they were vulnerable mobs in the eyes of the ministers of the imperial court and the children of the eight nationalities in Jingjun. However, few people would think that the Heavenly Master Gong Liang led more than 1000 elite disciples of Chimei cult to sneak into qintongshan long ago.

At this time, the black Yan army competing with the Xiyuan army and Huben army in Heyang, Lichuan and Jiyang was obtained by integrating millions of refugees on the basis of more than 1000 elite disciples of Chimei sect.

The barren mountains to the south of wushao mountain are steeper than Qintong mountain, and there are snow peaks and glaciers ten thousand meters above. Even the elite combat forces of Hexi Dao Yamen and tongxuan disciples can't easily climb over the numerous mountains nearly ten thousand miles, most of which are above the snow line, but if the demon temple is deployed at this time, they are the most powerful people who have at least the foundation of spiritual realm cultivation Where are the elite disciples?

Such speculation also explains why the tiny Buddha lurks in the eye of Pinglu and Tahe. Why is there no clue? The demon shrine did not borrow from the large oasis in Tahe (Tibetan and Qiang nationality), nor did it borrow the way between Tahe and Pinglu oasis. Who could find traces of traces of silk?

Now the most critical thing is not to persuade Zhao or Zhou in Lucheng to go to taiweizong, but to confirm how many elite combat forces are lurking in the demon temple in the mountains south of Lukai gorge.

If the demon Temple gathers three or five hundred elite disciples above the spirit realm, plus hundreds of ferocious monsters and demon birds, even if Hexi sends tens of thousands of Yamen troops to assist Pinglu, if there is no guard, I'm afraid it can't escape the tragic end of great collapse.

The demon temple has not forgotten the blood feud 20 years ago. In addition to secretly supporting Zhang Xiong and Kong Peng to subvert Ye's kingship and destroy the marriage between Dong and ye, it also wants to directly lure and annihilate the elite soldiers in Hexi!
