Chapter 61
In Xia Youchu's letter to Xun Lian, there was a Zhan Xinjia written on it, and he was very cautious about it.
Followed by another sentence: I miss you very much.
Xun Lian couldn't help but blushed, she pinched the letter in her hand, and then said angrily to Yuxi Xianzun who intercepted her letter: "The Xianzun is old and don't care about us young people, you'd better go early Go rest."
After finishing speaking, he didn't care how Immortal Yuxi blew his beard and stared, and ran away quickly.
When Xie Kuye saw her come out, a hint of curiosity finally appeared on the perennially stern beauty's face.
"Have you got the letter?" Xie Kuye leaned forward and asked.
Xun Lian nodded, and raised the letter paper in his hand.
Not only this letter in her hand, but also several letters withheld from Immortal Yuxi, Xun Lian carried the letter like a beating heart.
Too lazy to perfunctory Xie Kuye, Xun Lian ran to the yard with the letter in his arms.
Xie Kuye was left alone standing in Yuxi's courtyard, looking at the runny-nosed senior brother.
"Now she should live in peace for a few days. It's not a good idea to keep people looking at her like this." Immortal Yuxi walked out of the house at some point, standing behind Xie Kuye and said leisurely.
Xie Kuye turned around, greeted him respectfully, then raised his head and said, "The Immortal Venerable has a wonderful plan."
Immortal Yuxi curled his lips, his wrinkled old face showed a fox-like cleverness.
He said: "If you coax her for a few more days, I still have a letter here. When she can't sit still, ask her to get it."
Xie Kuye was extremely disdainful of Yuxi Xianzun's actions, but she didn't speak, only nodded in agreement.
If you really want to talk about it, it's no wonder that Immortal Yuxi tried his best to plan a letter from their young couple like this. It's really that Xun Lian is not easy to talk to, and he looks gentle and well-behaved on weekdays.
But as soon as Xia Youchu was involved, it was like a different person.
Immortal Yuxi stroked his beard again and sighed: "You have heard about the emergency of Hechuan, right? Yizuo urged me several times, and I will go to the lower realm tonight."
Xie Kuye frowned, he didn't expect that the matter of He Chuan had reached such a critical moment.
"What's the use of Xianzun going down alone?"
Immortal Venerable Yuxi was quite appreciative, and continued following Xie Kuye's words: "So the other disciples also went down with me."
"As for you, just take good care of Xun Lian for me, and don't let her go to the lower realm secretly." After speaking, Immortal Yuxi felt that something was wrong again, and handed the last letter in his hand to Xie Kuye.
"You take this letter and coax Xun Lian to behave better."
Xie Kuye was apprehensive. If Xun Lian really fought her, he might not have a chance of winning, but he had to restrain himself because of the presence of Immortal Yuxi.If she was told that Yuxi Xianzun had left and only the two of them were left, there would be a falling out.
"That's why I want you to keep it from her. It's best not to let her out of the yard." The old fox ordered, and thought of an idea as soon as he rolled his sly eyes.
"I'll set up a talisman formation for her around the yard so she can't get out."
Xie Kuye reluctantly agreed, took the letter and continued to guard Xun Lian.
...
The sun slowly sank into the distant mountains, burning half of the sky red.
The group of monks who followed Xia Youchu was quickly incorporated into the city defense team by Chen Yansi. This time, there were more than 1000 monks who came down from Mount Zhaoyao, and they were all elite monks who had fled from various sects.
These people were half-inspired and half-threatening by Xia Youchu and brought them down from Zhaoyao Mountain. They came to Hechuan with a lot of courage and courage. As soon as they arrived in Hechuan City, they were terrified by the beleaguered battle situation.
There are about 5 monster troops densely packed outside the city, and the river city is completely surrounded.In Hechuan City, even the monks and the common people have a population of only [-].
The city wall of Hechuan has been raised a lot higher than the original foundation. In order to build the city wall, the stone slabs paved on the road in the city have been dug clean, and there is almost no stone to be found.
Shananke had previously arranged for the monks to set up various spells on the city wall, which barely made the city wall made of earth and rocks resist the attack of a group of monsters outside the city.
Xia Youchu stood on the city wall. Outside the wall was a widened and deepened moat. The river water reflected the red clouds in the sky, as if it was going to set the whole city on fire.
The dark area on the other side of the moat is immersed in the gradually dimming night. If you look carefully, you can see that there are groups of monsters hiding in the blackness.
Unlike mortal monks, the monster bones born by the monster race seem to give them endless power, and they don't need to rest or eat.
With such a strong vitality, it is not easy to fight.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Xia Youchu felt that his heart sank to the bottom. They were alright as monks, and they could always escape at critical moments.
But what should the people in the city do?
Shananke shook his head with a wry smile and said, "Do you think I haven't thought about it? Everyone in the city has run away, but where can they go now? The imperial capital? The south?"
"It's not a solution. I wanted to arrange people to send these people to Zhaoyao Mountain. Who knew that they would be made dumplings by the Yaozu before it was too late."
Xia Youchu said: "Are you really going to fight? What exactly does the Yaozu want?"
Speaking of this, Shananke's expression suddenly became serious, and he said: "The purpose of the monster clan this time is to target the spiritual veins of the various fairy mountains. In the southern fairy mountains occupied by them, the spiritual veins suddenly disappeared They were all dug up."
How important is the spiritual pulse of the fairy mountain to cultivation, and the monsters have suffered so much in Fengyuan, so it is no wonder that they will come to snatch it as soon as they come out.
"Since it's for the sake of the spirit veins, it's okay to give them some. Why do we have to meet swords like this?" Xia Youchu asked.
Xia Nanke said: "It would be great if it was that easy. It wouldn't be necessary to fight the monster clan 3 years ago."
Xia Youchu stopped talking now. She had seen a lot in the mortal world, so she naturally knew that it was difficult for a monster, a mortal, or even a monk to regress when it came to benefits.
What's more, since the Yaozu still want to come to Zhaoyao Mountain, it shows that their ambitions are not limited to the already occupied spiritual veins.
Greed, anger, and ignorance are the three poisons. These three poisons harm the body and mind, making people sink in the cycle of life and death, and are the root of evil.
Since it is evil, how can it be so easy to dissolve.
Xia Youchu stopped talking, and his eyes fell into the darkness outside the city.
The Yaozu were not as reckless as they thought, and their brains were very easy to use. They only surrounded Hechuan City and were not in a hurry to attack.
But this is what makes the people in the city fearful, and they have to guard day and night, for fear that the monster clan will attack anytime.
One or two days is fine, if it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid the defenders in the city will be exhausted first.Shananke had to divide his men into several groups and take turns guarding the city wall.
Even so, the people in the city were still very tired.Xia Youchu arrived tonight, so Xia Nanke had a chance to catch his breath.
"Brother, go to rest first, I'll watch over here." Xia Youchu said to Xia Nanke.
Xia Nanke said: "I'm not in a hurry, I'll have a look tonight before we talk."
Xia Youchu didn't say much, and the two brothers and sisters stood guard on the city wall.
In the middle of the night, the stars shone in the moat.
Xia Youchu was meditating, and even though his eyes were closed, the creatures within a radius of a hundred miles could see clearly in his spiritual consciousness.
In the area occupied by the monster clan outside the city, there are layers of things surrounding it. Xia Youchu probed with his spiritual sense a little, and felt a familiar wave of breath.
The person in the middle is Le Fangteng. I haven't seen him for more than a year. This demon king seems to have aged a lot.Xia Youchu couldn't help but be a little surprised. You must know that it is difficult for a person with a cultivation level like Le Fangteng to age.
A person with advanced cultivation but showing signs of aging is mostly due to physical and mental exhaustion.
Just thinking about it, suddenly a little boy came out from nowhere, the boy was not very old, he was only wearing a red bellyband, and he couldn't walk very stably, so he threw himself into Le Fangteng's arms while crying.
Xia Youchu wanted to take a closer look, but was pulled back by an external force.
As soon as Xia Youchu opened his eyes, he saw Xia Nanke's rarely angry face.
"You don't want to die? The demon king is not easy to deal with. Be careful that he will bite your consciousness back."
Xia Youchu was about to find out who the little boy was, but he was suddenly interrupted by Xia Nanke and had no choice but to nod in agreement.
She didn't tell Xia Nanke that ever since Xun Lian gave her the peace talisman with demon fire attached, her aura can often be hidden very well, and it is difficult for the demon clan to find out.
It's just that now is not the time to say this, so Xia Youchu is silent.
Xia Nanke said: "The Immortal has arrived."
Xia Youchu was taken aback for a moment, and she said: "The Immortal Venerable has come down, so there is no one in the upper realm?"
Xia Nanke replied: "Why is there no one? Isn't the little rabbit still in the upper realm?"
Xia Youchu's heart skipped a beat, Xun Lian must be restless staying in the upper realm alone, what should she do if she gets into some trouble?
Before she could think about it, there was a sudden commotion in the city.
One after another, the lights came on, illuminating the entire city wall.
Xia Youchu took a look, and sure enough, he saw Immortal Yuxi standing in front of a group of monks.
"It's not a good idea to just guard, and sooner or later it will be exhausted." Immortal Yuxi inspected the situation outside the city, frowning and said.
"But now the gap between the enemy and us is so great, how can we fight?" a monk asked.
Yuxi Xianzun said: "There is not much chance of winning in terms of combat power, so it is better to win by cleverness."
...
Xun Lian happily read those letters several times. The contents of the letters were nothing more than Xia Youchu's experience in the mortal world and the current situation, but Xia Youchu's writing was very different.
The date was marked at the end of each letter, and Xun Lian roughly calculated that a letter would be sent out almost every two days.
It was five days ago that I got the last letter from Yuxi Xianzun, and Xun Lian became a little worried when he changed his mind.
She couldn't sit still and read the last letter again. Xia Youchu mentioned that she would go south to Hechuan City.
Xun Lian of Hechuan City is naturally no stranger, but what she doesn't understand is what is Xia Youchu doing when he first arrived in the imperial capital and went south?The news that came back before said that all parts of the south have been occupied by the monster clan. Will Xia Youchu be in any danger?
As soon as this thought came up, I couldn't hold it back anymore, and my worried thoughts bound Xun Lian like a poisonous snake.
