Legend of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 40 Divided into 3 ways

After bidding farewell to Chen Wankuo, the demon hunter and his team hurried out of the city. What Chen Wankuo meant was that they had to spread out to stop the monster as quickly as possible. When they left the city, they all slowed down their horse riding speeds. , it's not too late

"I think, why don't we take a walk together first, because these three places are not very far away."

Chen Xingming nodded and said, "I think so too. My father doesn't fully understand the situation in the west. If we split up rashly, I'm worried that something will happen that we can't cope with."

"It's best to be able to walk together." Shen Yin agreed

After the five people made a decision, they set off on the post road together. The sky suppressed a dark cloud, as if a downpour was about to fall, and the dark cloud edge spread to the boundary they couldn't see.

They came to a village along the road. All the doors in the village were closed. There were only some dilapidated tables, chairs and wooden frames on both sides of the road. It seemed that this place used to be a nearby market.

There was a slow sound of horseshoes on the uneven ground, and apart from the staggered "da da" sound, the whole village seemed dead silent. After Chen Yuming switched his yin and yang eyes, his sight turned gray and blue again. Demonic, Chen Yuming frowned and said

"It seems that this place was looted by monsters not long ago."

"There seems to be someone over there?" Mo Buwan looked not far away and said

"Go, go and have a look." Chen Yuming said

After everyone got off their horses, they saw a simple courtyard. Pushing away the half-damaged wooden fence, there were constant noises in the house. Several people stared at it vigilantly. As time passed, the sound in the house suddenly stopped. Then everyone stopped, and after a while, an old woman's hunched figure appeared in the room.

When she saw someone standing in the yard, she couldn't help being startled, Shen Yin immediately said: "Don't be afraid, old lady, we are not bad people."

The old woman looked intently and murmured, "It's not a monster..."

At this time, a man with luggage came out of the room, stood beside the old woman and asked, "Who are you?"

"Guys, are you the only family left in this village?" Chen Yuming said

"A lot of monsters came the day before yesterday. Except for the dead, everyone who can walk has left, and my mother and I are leaving too." The man said

"Then do you know what kind of monster it is?" Chen Yuming asked

"I've never seen such a beast before. I don't know what it is. It's all blue-faced and fangs. It has harmed many surrounding villages." The man said with lingering fear.

Several people looked at each other, and Chen Yuming continued to ask: "Then can you see where they are going?"

The man thought for a while and said, "To the west, you can see it by following the footprints, but you should run quickly, why are you looking for that monster?"

Chen Yuming said without further explanation: "Thank you, let's take your mother on the way."

The man didn't understand why these people rushed to die. Naturally, he would not meddle in other people's business when disaster struck. After the man helped his mother to leave, Chen Yuming said, "Let's go."

A few people continued westward, and before they knew it, it was late at night, everyone's route had already left the official road, and the cicadas in the field were not louder than usual, on the contrary, it was more peaceful.

Because there is no post station along the road, everyone can only find a temporary shelter to survive the night, and when it was almost midnight, they finally found a seemingly deserted house in the forest, and he hesitated: "Let's go in and have a look? "

"There is no other choice." Su Qing said

Several people tied up the horses and pushed the door in. They found that it was still dilapidated, but this house was different from the peasants' houses in the village in the daytime. The land of the rich.

Mo Buwan raised his hand and scraped away the spider web hanging on the door frame of the main hall with Chiyan. After entering, he looked around and said: "It looks like it has been abandoned for a long time, it seems that it has not just been moved."

"Yeah." Chen Yanming looked at it and said.

Could it be too late to look back at him and said, "Then we'll deal with it all night?"

"Everyone check carefully, and then take a rest first." Chen Yuming said

The house looks not too big or small, but there are not many undamaged bedrooms that can be used for rest. There are four rooms and five people. The division fell asleep.

Because the bed was not very clean, Mobuwan and Chen Yuming didn't intend to take off their clothes. They lay on the bed and put on the quilt and got ready to sleep.

"If you really want to split up later, do you want to come with me?"

Mo Buwan closed his eyes and said in a daze, "Isn't it always the two of us together..."

"I'm asking, would you like to?"

"Yes...it's like I sleep with you every time..." Mobuwan fell asleep before he finished speaking, and a smile appeared on Chen Yuming's face unconsciously. Bound together by the mission, Chen Yuming made sure that he was with him because he was willing rather than helpless, and fell asleep with the joy floating in his heart.

After a good night's dream, everyone heard Shen Yin's sharp voice, almost all jumped up with the same movement, and then heard Shen Yin shouting again: "Don't run!"

Chen Yuming and Mo Buwan got up quickly and rushed out. A cool breeze in the morning woke up the last drowsiness of several people.

"What's the matter, sister?"

"I saw a figure passing by my back window in the morning. If we go out, we will only be at the front door. How can anyone go to the back window?" Shen said

Su Qing had gone to check around the room, then came back and said: "There are no traces at all, it's not a big monster but it's definitely not a human being."

"Senior sister, are you okay?" Mo Buwan shook Shen Yin's wrist and said

"I'm fine." Shen Yin patted his hand and said: "It seems that we have been targeted by monsters."

"They are in the dark and we are in the light. I always thought that they had the upper hand. The monster just now must be caught. Maybe it is the way for us to reverse the situation." Chen Yuming said

"Do you smell anything?" Bian Zechuan asked

Bian Zechuan didn't say that few people noticed this, after he mentioned it, he sniffed it later and said, "Is it the fragrance of flowers?"

"It's not some kind of drug, right?" Su Qing said vigilantly

Chen Yuming still said calmly: "No, it's already here."

Perhaps it was because Chen Yuming still had the spiritual power of the metal system in his body, and he was always more sensitive to monsters with wood attributes. Everyone followed his gaze and saw a thin figure appearing in the corner at the end of the corridor.

"Who are you?" Chen Yuming asked

The woman in thin clothes came out obediently and said: "I am a flower demon..."

"It was you who were outside my window just now?" Shen Yin asked

The flower demon nodded and said, "I didn't mean to scare you..."

"You can't scare me with this level of skill." Shen Yin continued: "Come and talk."

After the flower demon walked in front of them, Chen Yuming asked, "Why did you come to us?"

"My lords, please protect me." The flower demon pleaded

Several people looked at each other in surprise, monsters have always been unable to hide from the demon hunter, and now there is a monster who begged for their protection.

Mo Buwan then asked, "Please explain clearly."

"Yes, our area has always been very peaceful, but a few days ago a big demon suddenly came and asked all the demons in our area to listen to it, and immediately get rid of them if they don't obey. Our flower demons are born I don't like killing and I have no skills, almost all my fellow clansmen were killed by that big monster, so I... risked my life to come here."

"Then how do you know where we are?" Chen Yuming continued to ask

"Because I overheard the conversation between the big demon and its subordinates earlier, saying that the person who is going to arrest the demon is coming soon."

Mo Buwan still had doubts about the flower demon, and he examined it carefully: "What evidence do you have to prove that what you said is true?"

The flower demon thought for a while and said: "I know a little bit about their plans, so I can tell you! That big monster destroyed my home and killed all my people. I have no reason to help it. Besides... I'm just a little flower demon, if it wasn't for my life, how dare I bother the adults..."

Seeing her cautious appearance, Shen Yin went over to hold her wrist, and immediately felt the sadness and fear in the flower demon's heart after turning on empathy. If it weren't for the fact that she was really lonely and precarious, Shen Yin would not have felt these things.

Although Shen Yin has the ability to empathize, because the great joy and sorrow of the shared person will be reflected on the perceiver in a real way, so it is generally not used. Shen Yin adjusted her mood secretly, and then let go of her wrist and said: "It's true, Ming, what should we do?"

Chen Ximing thought for a while and said, "Tell us what you know, and I have a way to keep you alive."

The flower demon then told them everything she knew, and through her description, several people judged that the leading monster was fierce.

After the flower demon finished speaking, Chen Qiming drew a spell on her body and said, "You can go to Chang'an."

Before everyone could ask questions, the flower demon asked in surprise, "Chang'an? Is it really possible?"

Chen Yuming nodded his head and said: "Well, what I drew on you just now is a magic spell. Once you enter Chang'an, you will lose all magic power. This trick is to protect the safety of the people in Chang'an, but it will not do any harm to you. When the time comes, you can directly Just go and hunt down the monster, and the seal will be broken when we go back."

This method is tantamount to getting the best of both worlds. After the flower demon thanked her, she set off to leave, and several people continued on their way. Everyone was silent along the way. The unknown battlefield and the upcoming parting brought different worries to the five people.

Finally, when it was time to separate, several people got off their horses one after another, so they asked first, "How do we go?"

"If it is divided into three groups, there will always be one person who will be placed alone." Chen Yuming said

"I'll go all the way by myself, I'm used to it myself." Su Qing took the initiative to say

He paused for a while and said, "I don't know what I will meet on this journey. In fact, if I let Zechuan go all the way by himself, I am still very worried about his inner demons. In this way, Su Qing will..."

Su Qing knew that she couldn't bear it, so she still smiled and said: "Don't worry, I'm fine."

"According to the information route of the flower demon, it is that Shen Yin and Zechuan will go to Linhe, Suqing will go to Hezhou, and Buwan and I will go to Diezhou, and we will meet up in Longzhi after clearing the demons of these three roads." Chen Yuming said

"Why don't I go to Linhe, where the wind and sand are strong, I'm always familiar with it." Su Qing said

Several people nodded, Chen Yuming looked back at the official road when he looked at it, and then at everyone, and said emphatically: "All of us must arrive at Longzhi safe and sound."

"Definitely." Su Qing said

"Well, definitely." Shen Yin and Ze Chuan said

The five people looked at each other before they got on the horse and said goodbye, which was a silent burst of emotion. Everyone set out with their own and each other's beliefs. When the Demon Demon Division was first established, it was scattered, and now it has only been a few months to gather together. Over time, but the feelings of several people have been exposed to the fetters of deep seas and broad rivers in the course of life and death again and again.

Qiqijuer, we are in the same boat through thick and thin.

After the Turks surrendered to the Tang Dynasty, Tubo was still covetous, and the war that lasted for decades has never really subsided.

The gathering of monsters this time is even more menacing. Those mediocre officials in the court who are already at a loss when they hear about Tubo's invasion will be even more frightened if they hear that there are monsters sweeping over.

Empress Wu ordered the Jinwu Guards to hunt down the demon Chen Yuming and others but failed. Chen Wankuo also personally explained the reason to the saint. Li Zhi has been working hard on state affairs in recent days and his body has been unhealthy. Although he didn't blame Empress Wu, he also avoided any investigation of the demon-hunter, so as to reassure his loyal ministers.

The falcon streaked across the sky, and let out a long and harsh howl. On the vast plateau, a snow beast was leaning over a woman. The woman seemed to be boneless, hanging on the snow in white clothes. There was also a strange smile on her bloodless face.
