Cultivating immortals, starting from immortality, bright moon toast together

Chapter 144

All the cavalry in the barracks were gathered, handed over to Zhou Qing to lead, and sent out in pursuit.

Then some of the troops who were on duty were also gathered, gathered more than two thousand people, and chased after the cavalry.

Some soldiers who were sleeping and resting in the back were also called up, and gathered six battalions of 3,000 men as the third wave of pursuit.

The remaining 10,000 soldiers and horses remained in the camp, waiting for dawn.

And wait until everything is deployed.

A huge chase began.

Those rebels of the Seven Star Gate had only escaped more than ten miles away when they were caught up by the cavalry who were the first to chase.

The rebels who had no formation in the rout, how could they withstand the onslaught of the cavalry, and after being rushed for a while, they immediately dispersed.

A large number of rebels surrendered in place, while some fled into the wilderness and ran deep into the mountains, unable to pursue them in the dark of night.

The cavalry ignored these people who asked for surrender.

After scattering the following bandits, they continued to chase forward.

These surrendered people, left for the infantry who followed behind, slowly gathered together.

The cavalrymen, on the other hand, quickly rode forward and forward, crushing and scattering the thieves who ran at the front.

When they were chasing after them, they forced the team of those core figures of the Seven Star Gate, and the people simply did not escape, and first stayed and killed with the cavalry.

These martial arts masters, with their strong martial arts, fiercely killed more than a hundred cavalrymen, only catching the pursuing cavalry by surprise.

After losing a large number of people and horses, Zhou Qing did not dare to chase too closely, so he slowly adjusted his strategy, hung behind, and found some other soft persimmons to bite, and did not dare to rush the team of those martial arts masters.

In this way, some evacuated thief troops who did not have the masters of the Seven Star Gate sat down, and they were unlucky.

They were targeted by the cavalry, and in the face of the powerful momentum of the thousands of troops galloping, coupled with the panic when fleeing for their lives, they often could not hold out for a while, and they were directly killed and defeated, crying and surrendering and begging for mercy.

Relying on these cushions, the core team of the Seven Star Gate quickly fled south.

Gradually, he left the pursuers behind.

The huge pursuit lasted for three days.

The army sent by Lu Yuan to pursue directly from Changning County to Pingyang County in Luyang Prefecture, chasing more than three hundred miles in one go.

The two small county towns of Luyang Province passing by in the middle, after hearing the news that the front-line army was defeated and the enemy army was killed, there were even gangs of wealthy families in the city who rose up and killed the thief generals left behind at the Seven Star Gate, and opened the city to welcome the Wang Shi.

Counting Pingyang County, the land of ten counties in Luyang Prefecture, in one day, three counties were restored.

But by this time, the pursuing army could not pursue.

Nearly half of the horses of those cavalry ran to death, and the infantry that followed them also fell behind, and the men and horses who arrived in Pingyang County at the front were less than a thousand.

Now it has penetrated deep into Luyang Mansion and entered the lair of the Seven Star Gate, even if these rebels have suffered a great defeat, the remaining strength in the local area is still not to be underestimated.

Therefore, for the sake of propriety, Zhou Qing chose to stay in Pingyang County, while collecting the thief army that surrendered to the uprising in the county seat, while waiting for the follow-up army to arrive.

……

Just when Zhou Qing’s side was making rapid progress, Lu Yuan’s main army of tens of thousands of people was also slowly moving towards the realm of Luyang Mansion at this time.

However, compared to the vanguard of pursuit, the speed of his main army was much slower.

It is still the same as the speed of the previous rush, only thirty or fifty miles a day, mainly steady.

The results of this pursuit have been reported back one after another.

After chasing for a night and a day, a total of more than 6,000 people were captured by the Seven Star Gate thief army.

These prisoners, together with more than 2,000 traitors captured in the previous half month, were gathered together by Lu Yuan and organized into the first camp again.

The next thing is to kill in Luyang Mansion.

There is the lair of the Seven Star Gate, and there are not many forces in the local area, and these traitors are intertwined.

Even if the Seven Star Gate was defeated miserably now and lost 20,000 soldiers and horses, even so, it was not so easy to defeat Hengyang Mansion.

According to the information available now, there are still about 10,000 soldiers and horses left in Hengyang Mansion at the Seven Star Gate.

Among them, 5,000 main forces gathered in Hengyang Fucheng.

With these soldiers and horses, the Seven Star Gate is not so easy to collapse.

In the end, siege battles are indispensable.

At that time, a large amount of cannon fodder will be needed to fill the line, and the prisoners of these 8,000 people are just right.

In addition to the prisoners, the rebels also had more than a thousand people, who fled into the local wilderness last night and needed to be slowly searched and arrested.

In this regard, Lu Yuan sent an official letter, asking Hengyang Mansion to send another thousand people to come over to specifically clean up these remnants of traitors.

Therefore, the traitors who chased and killed after a night and could finally escape back should only be more than 2,000 people.

When they went north, there were more than 20,000 soldiers and horses, and when they fled back, only 2,000 remained.

This battle of the Seven Star Gate attacking Hengyang Mansion can be said to be a crushing defeat.

Even whether it can last next, and how long it can last, has become a question.

……

On the wide official road, the army stretched for several miles, winding south.

“After this big victory, my reputation in Dongting County should be even louder.”

Sitting in the spacious and comfortable carriage, Lu Yuan smiled helplessly while looking at the war report: “But in this way, the probability of me being targeted by the Five Poisons Sect is even greater.” ”

He had not broken through the innate, and the threat of the Five Poisons Sect to him had always been with him.

That’s it.

Although he was marching in a hurry, like the same carriage sitting at this time, Lu Yuan arranged a full three.

In order to confuse outsiders and avoid assassination.

Caution to this point, living is indeed a little tired enough.

But there is no way, for the sake of small lives, you can only work hard yourself.

“But that’s only temporary. After I have completed the Chiyang Divine Skill and practiced this technique to the highest level, I will be able to reach the peak of the first-class level, and by then I will only be one step away from the innate.

As long as I can break through the innate, then let alone the Five Poisons Sect, the world is so big, I can come and go freely, and then I am not restrained. ”

Lu Yuan’s mood these days is actually quite good.

This was not only because he led the army to a victory, but also because the day before yesterday, after more than a month of cultivation, he had completed another meridian.

At this point, there was only the last meridian left, and Lu Yuan could complete the transfer cultivation exercise.

“After completing the remaining meridians, it should take more than a month, and then I may have wiped out the Seven Star Gate.”

Under the current trend of great victory, Lu Yuan did not doubt whether he could attack the Seven Star Gate, and his heart was full of confidence: “I heard that the divine blood alien inherited by the Seven Star Gate is called the Pure Water Xuan Niu, and this cow has a long life and can live for one hundred and fifty years.

Spray, I don’t know who is more powerful than the blood jade centipede. ”

At this time, Lu Yuan had already begun to think of the harvest after attacking the Seven Star Gate.

The reason why he attacked these rebels so hard this time was to purify the water Xuanniu. Prepare to use this cow’s divine blood to help yourself quickly break through the last three meridians of the Chiyang Divine Skill.

Among the six strange scriptures in the first-class realm, Lu Yuan has now practiced three.

For the remaining three Miracle Sutras, if he only relied on his personal penance, even with the help of the Spirit Replenishing Pill, it would take at least more than a year.

But if there is a water purification xuanniu, then maybe in just a few days, you can be promoted to the top of the first class.

The time saved and the help to improve strength can be imagined.

“I even heard that the Divine Blood Xenomorph is of great help in breaking through the innate.

Within those innate sects, there was also a peerless divine pill, refined by several different kinds of divine blood.

After taking this pill, it can help the warrior to open the second pulse of Ren Du and step into the innate.

That Western Shu Emperor Li Xiong collected the divine blood xenomorphs of the ten martial arts forces in Xichuan, and finally refined a peerless divine pill, which broke through the innate. ”

Lu Yuan thought of a rumor that he had heard about in the past few years, and his heart was hot.

Right now, what he wants most is naturally to break through the innate.

But between innate and first-class, the gap is like a chasm, basically unbridgeable.

Lu Yuan wanted to rely on his own ability to obtain peerless divine pills, or innate exercises, from the hands of those innate sects, which was basically impossible.

Even if it is possible, it must be taken at great risk.

Therefore, this road is basically absolute for him.

On the contrary, it is more feasible to learn from Li Xiong, raze those first-class martial arts forces, seize the divine blood xenomorphs in the hands of the other party, and then refine the divine pill to break through the innate.

Now Lu Yuan is working hard in this direction.

……

The army traveled twenty miles south and soon came to a barren mountain.

For miles near the barren mountains, there is not even a village. But amazingly, there seems to be a small house on the mountainside, which seems to be inhabited.

When he arrived here, Lu Yuan stopped people, and then took his own soldiers and went to the mountains.

That’s right, this barren mountain is where Qingyun Temple is located.

Since following Sun Siwen to Wugang County to take office, Lu Yuan has not been here for several years.

This time I returned to Changning, revisited the old place, passed by this place, and suddenly felt in my heart, and wanted to see my Qi Yun Daoist.

For this Taoist friend who was also a teacher and friend with himself, Lu Yuan had a lot of respect in his heart. After all, it was the other party who pulled himself into the path of cultivation and taught the complete Daomen classics.

Now that his practice can be so smooth, he can’t help it without Qi Yun’s help.

“Over the years, I have read through the Taoist scriptures and have a lot of understanding of the method of meditation for gods. This time, you may be able to discuss with Qi Yun Daoyou. ”

Lu Yuan thought of the past, and his face couldn’t help but smile.

Over the years, he has accumulated a lot of experience and confusion in his heart by studying the Taoist scriptures, and this meeting with Taoist friends, he will definitely talk about the Xuan Dao again and express his understanding in his heart.

And at this time.

A large number of soldiers pouring from down the mountain also attracted the attention of the Guanzhong.

“Master, it’s not good, a large group of officers and soldiers came down from the mountain.”

Inside the Qingyun Temple, I saw a little Daoist boy about twelve or thirteen years old, hurriedly breaking in from outside the view, and shouting loudly when he entered the courtyard.

“Panicked, what kind of system, have you forgotten the meditation technique that the teacher taught you?”

In the main hall of the courtyard, the Qi Yun Daoist who was pouring incense to the ancestor inside came out and reprimanded the Dao Tong twice.

Then he walked out of the temple and looked down the mountain, and immediately saw a large number of soldiers walking towards the mountain, and his heart suddenly tightened.

“Where did so many officers and soldiers come from in this barren mountain range? And looking at this look, could it be that it came to my Taoist temple? ”

Looking at the endless officers and soldiers who could not see their heads at a glance, Qi Yundao’s hearts were a little apprehensive.

In today’s troubled world, soldiers and bandits are rampant.

A soldier is a bandit, and a bandit is a soldier, and there is no big difference between the two.

Although he also cultivated martial arts, he is still only second-rate. But looking at the soldiers under the mountain, I am afraid that it has passed a thousand.

Second-rate masters can deal with a hundred soldiers at the top, and the officers and soldiers who entered the mountain have far exceeded the scope of Qi Yundao’s coping.

Although he is a monk, he has also seen and heard about the chaos and tragedy outside in the past few years, and when he encounters it at this time, he will naturally be afraid and fearful.

“I heard that recently, a group of Qixingmen rebels came near Changning County, did these officers and soldiers come to suppress the rebellion? The grandmaster is on top, and I hope they have no malice towards my crown. ”

Qi Yun Daoist prayed in his heart.

Then looking at the group of officers and soldiers who had already arrived at the gate, he forced a smile and greeted him: “Heavenly Venerable blessed.” A few military masters, I don’t know what happened to Xiaoguan today? ”

“There is nothing wrong with them coming to Guanli, mainly because Poor Dao wants to see Qi Yun Daoyou, so they specially came to bother.”

At this time, behind the officers and soldiers, hearty laughter came over.

Then I saw that the officers and soldiers in front of me suddenly gave way to a road, and then a familiar figure appeared in front of Qi Yun.

“Lu Daoyou?”

Qi Yun looked at Lu Yuan, who was dressed as a general in front of him, and after being stunned, he immediately said with a smile: “It turns out that the Daoist friend is here.” Poor Dao thought that something had happened today, but when he saw that it was a Taoist, he was relieved. ”

Saying that, Qi Yun glanced at Lu Yuan dissatisfied, and said with disgust: “I was startled by Daoist friends today.” ”

“Haha!”

Listening to this familiar voice, as well as the casual words of the past, Lu Yuan suddenly felt back a few years ago, couldn’t help laughing twice, and then accused him one after another: “Don’t blame Daoists.” It’s just that over the years, more people have been offended by poverty, and for the sake of safety, it has to be so. ”

“Alas, the red dust of the world is indeed easy to contaminate cause and effect, and lead to calamity.”

Qi Yun listened to Lu Yuan’s words, as if thinking of something, sighed, and then let go of the viewing door: “Daoist friends have been in the future for a long time, let’s follow me into the observation first.”

The view is simple, I hope that Taoist friends will not dislike it now. ”

“Where are the Taoists, I used to eat and live here, and now I naturally eat and live here.”

Lu Yuan laughed, showed his heart a little, and then stopped the soldiers who wanted to follow the watch, let them wait outside, and entered the watch alone.

There are not many people in the world who can make him believe.

The doctor Zhou who has passed away is, Sun Siwen and Zhou Qing are, and so are Qi Yun Daoyou in front of him.

In the past few years, Lu Yuan and Qi Yun had already known each other’s temperament and became Taoist confidants.

This kind of friendship, the other party will never harm him.

In terms of looking at people, Lu Yuan has his own self-confidence.

Of course, with his current strength, Qi Yun was no longer an opponent.

And those personal soldiers guarding the inside and outside, the effect is actually similar.

Anyway, it is the possible assassination of the Five Poisons Sect, guarding outside, the vision is better, maybe the effect is better.
