Chapter 1278 Attacking the Gate

Once he finds an opportunity, the demon will definitely return to the human world. He has no doubt about this. If he were the demon, he would definitely do the same.

Only by descending to the human world can one continue to pursue individual self-strengthening.

Dong Rui bared his teeth: "How should I know? Didn't you stop me from studying?"

"I believe your inference."

As soon as he said this, Dong Rui lost his temper: "Well, the most convenient way is to occupy the skin of an immortal, but this is too difficult in itself. It's like a mouse hanging a bell on a cat."

There is a local story: Cats walk silently, and mice are always killed. So the mice unanimously decided to put a bell on the cat. Wherever the cat walks, the bell will ring, and the mouse can escape.

Then the question is, who will hang the bell on the cat?

The problem faced by the demons is the same. Not to mention that there are very few immortals in the world, even if there are, how many can they occupy?

Not to mention, there is also the problem of adaptation.

"The body of a cultivator is too fragile to fully bear the power of the demon." Dong Rui had thought about this question long ago and was clear-headed. "So the key to the problem is, does the demon's skin have to be human?"

As soon as this sentence came out, the room was quiet.

He Lingchuan thought of Qu Yu's landfill. No matter how the immortal destroyed the clues, he didn't have time to burn the landfill. There were all kinds of strange remains piled up there. He Lingchuan didn't know whether they were born that way or were transformed.

Was it Qu Yu who transformed it?

Why?

He Lingchuan thought of Dong Rui's demon puppet again. Is it similar?

Chilled.

Both of them were speechless for a long time.

Finally, it was Dong Rui who broke the silence: "Hey, you called me for something?"

"Yes." He Lingchuan collected his thoughts and picked up a piece of information to show him, "The affairs here are basically dealt with. I want to go to Bayuan Township."

"Lingshan has a new mission again?" Dong Rui read out the words on the note, "Pu Yin Temple is in Bayuan Township, which is right behind Shizhoutou City. Is it very popular?"

"It's not Lingshan's mission. Lingshan won't pay attention to such a small place. I want to go there myself." He Lingchuan said, "I have some new ideas."

"Pu Yin Temple? Is it a temple?" Dong Rui frowned, "Pu Yin... I seem to have heard of it somewhere."

"Pu Yin is just a small god, not very famous in other places." He Lingchuan stretched, "If we want to go to Bayuan Township, we have to pick a sunny day."

Shine Gold Plain.

Shizhoutou is fifty miles south of Jucheng.

The city gates are closed, and torches are burning in the city and outside.

Outside the city, there was a huge army. Someone shouted at the top of the city gate:

"The city guard is back! Xu Youguang, open the gate quickly!"

After shouting several times, no one answered, but the soldiers on the city gate pointed their bows and arrows downwards with unfriendly eyes.

"Who is in charge of the city gate? Are they all dead?" The people below were impatient, "Come and talk!"

As soon as the voice fell, someone on the city gate tower really spoke:

"Xu Youguang is dead, and he can't open the gate for Liu Chengshou."

The firelight illuminated the man's face, and there was a new black and red scar from the corner of his eye to the wing of his nose.

"The Zhao army attacked, and he wanted to secretly open the city gate to surrender, so I chopped off his head with my own hands."

The soldiers below were frightened when they heard the voice. Liu Chengshou rode out of the crowd: "Well done, Yang Shoubei! From now on, you are the deputy general, leading the city defense army. Now, open the city gate quickly."

"Before the Zhao army attacked, didn't Liu Chengshou just run away?" Yang Shoubei was unmoved, "Before he fled, he looted all the people in the city, and the bandits were inferior to him; now that we have driven away the Zhao army and defended the city, Liu Chengshou wants to come back and be an official again?"

Liu Chengshou was displeased: "I went to get reinforcements myself, and asked you to stay and defend the city! It is your job to defend Shizhoutou, how dare you make up rumors and accuse me of abandoning the people!"

Suddenly, a soldier on the city gate shouted: "Two days before the Zhao army attacked, you allowed your men to rob, and my two sisters' homes were looted, and people were beaten and bleeding!"

Someone took the lead, and the people on the city gate started to curse, and the sound spread two miles.

"The city guard stole himself, he has no shame!"

"You scum, you still want to enter the city? I'll shoot you to the ground first!"

Other dirty words were even more unbearable to hear.

Someone was so excited that he shot an arrow on the string, so he shot it at Liu Chengshou.

This arrow was quite accurate and hit him in the chest.

Liu Chengshou was wearing a self-defense magic weapon, and a green light flashed on his body, so this arrow didn't kill him. But he was also shocked, turned his horse back and rushed into the army, pointing at the city gate at the same time:

"Shoot them down, shoot them all down!"

The army under the city also raised arrows and shot upwards.

The two sides intertwined arrows, and the battle started suddenly.

But the defenders took advantage of the high ground. Liu Chengshou didn't expect that his city defense army would really dare to attack him. His men were too close to the city gate, and the casualties from being shot were much greater than those of the city defense army.

Liu Chengshou's army had to retreat fifty feet.

At the same time, Yang Shoubei also gestured to the city defense army: "Stop shooting, there are not many arrows, use them sparingly!"

After defeating the Zhao army, they were seriously short of supplies, and Liu Chengshou came back before they could get supplies.

I didn't expect that the most difficult hurdle would be "our own people".

Yang Shoubei sighed secretly.

"Yang Meng!" Liu Chengshou retreated fifty feet away before speaking again, "Open the city and surrender immediately, I will forgive the past, and the conditions I just offered will still count!"

This idiot! Yang Shoubei was so angry that he laughed. Shouldn't such conditions be negotiated in private? Which general dared to agree in front of his soldiers?

This kind of person is actually the city guard of Shizhoutou! If he agrees, the people can't agree.

Yang Meng grabbed a bow and arrow and shot two arrows at Liu Chengshou.

This is his answer.

…

White clouds float in the blue sky, and birds sing and flowers bloom in the early spring fields.

Dong Rui has been busy doing experiments recently. Occasionally, he comes out to take a walk and feel relaxed and happy.

When they got here, there was no one on the road. He said to He Lingchuan: "I finally remembered that Shao Jian's booklet recorded a god named Pu Yin!"

He Lingchuan gave him a light sarcasm: "You have a good memory."

"I rarely pay too much attention to things outside of my body." Why would he bother to remember such a trivial matter? Precious brain power should be used in the right place. Dong Rui coughed lightly, "Why are you looking for Pu Yin God?"

"To build relationships and get information." He Lingchuan said, "Just like we found Shi Nan before."

Not all gods are arrogant. Those lower gods are willing to lower their status and build some relationships with the human world as long as they think you are useful and as long as you can find resources for them.

There are too few temples on Platinum Island, and He Lingchuan needs to expand the source of information.
