Chapter 1190

"Who caused you to be hungry and cold!"

"Who caused you to be surrounded by enemies and spurned by all nations!"

"And who caused you to have nowhere to go, caused your descendants to wander on the plain like wild dogs, unable to find a place to live!"

The Yao army shot arrows at the sound source in the sky one after another, but the strange bird flew too high, beyond their range. General Zhongwu's face was livid, and he looked for an opportunity to draw his bow twice himself, but both failed.

He did have master archery skills, but He Lingchuan was prepared in advance, so how could he let him succeed easily? "I will wait for you in the ruins of Ke Mountain!" The giant strange bird circled again, flapped its wings, and indeed headed toward the ruins of the palace, "Before that, shouldn't you—"

The black-armored person looked up at the sky, staring at him without letting go.

"—settle the old score with the Yao army?"

After saying this sentence, He Lingchuan and the strange bird had already flown far away, with only the lingering sound echoing in the ears.

After flying out three miles, He Lingchuan pointed to a large piece of hilly open space in front: "Descend!"

The bat demon puppet landed quickly, and the two people were hidden under the hills.

About ten breaths later, another night owl flew over, circled twice here, but didn't see He Lingchuan's figure.

Below was a stretch of mountain rocks, with only two small trees.

Helpless, it could only flap its wings and land on the treetop of a small tree, turning its head to look around everywhere.

Who knew that just as it turned its head to its back, something suddenly fell from the bottom of the branch on the side and smashed beside its feet.

The night owl was startled and flapped its wings; looking down, it was actually a chubby little bat, slowly crawling up the tree trunk.

Bats were also on its menu; although it couldn't distinguish what breed this was, it didn't hinder its determination to eat a midnight snack.

However, just as it stretched its beak to peck, the bat suddenly became larger...

He Lingchuan was hiding in the shadow of the hill, hearing a series of crackling sounds above, the sound of flapping wings, and the screams of birds.

After a few more breaths, the bat arrived gracefully, landed beside He Lingchuan, with two feathers still stuck to the corner of its mouth.

He Lingchuan removed the feathers for it, and Dong Rui also said: "You guessed right, sure enough, the guy surnamed Yu didn't give up and sent bird demons to tail us."

What the bat demon puppet just ate was the bird demon sentry sent by the Yao people. He Lingchuan was the initiator of the melee between the black-armored leader and the Yao army; General Zhongwu was naturally unwilling to let them run away, so he sent bird demons to follow closely.

He Lingchuan took the demon puppet back to the sky and said: "This guy surnamed Yu is busy with the big battle, thinking about the three-tailed demon, and still thinking about us; he is also a methodical person. He has already discovered that we have separated from the three-tailed demon."

Before He Lingchuan left the battlefield, he found a first-class seat with the best view for the eyeball spider on a large tree.

From the feedback on the scene, General Zhongwu fought this battle in a fit of anger.

The Yao army's Yuan Power was indeed outstanding, and it had a great advantage against rock and soil puppets. But tonight's battle was very special; the black-armored leader and the rock and soil puppets completely blocked the Yao army on the road, the mountain path was exceptionally narrow, and the Yao army not only couldn't form a formation, but even the soldiers in the back were blocked by their comrades in the front, unable to charge up at all, only able to watch and worry.

Besides, what clear-headed general would be willing to let his own direct army fight against mud sculptures?

Fighting against lifeless puppets with flesh and blood, this battle was so meaningless.

So Dong Rui laughed loudly: "No matter how methodical, weren't you still played by you?"

He Lingchuan said a fair word: "Suddenly killing such an opponent, he was just caught off guard. Besides, he knew nothing about us."

In his view, General Zhongwu's reaction was fast, and his performance on the battlefield was much stronger than ordinary generals. It was just that he didn't expect that an opponent like He Lingchuan, who didn't take the usual path, would appear out of thin air.

If He Lingchuan were in his shoes, he would probably have suffered this loss too.

"Since the tailing ones have all been eaten by my bat, let's just walk away." Dong Rui asked him, "Why really go to the Ke Mountain ruins?"

"We returned after landing just now and hid behind the low hill to watch the battle; the black-armored person could point out our position without even looking, which shows it has the ability to track us." He Lingchuan's mind was clear, "If we change direction and walk away now, the black-armored person might know we are untrustworthy. You say, will it abandon the Yao army and come directly to find us?"

Then wouldn't his trick of the snipe and the clam fighting be ruined?

"Uh..." Dong Rui admitted his concerns were reasonable, "This guy's head is not clear, but its mobility is very strong."

"Judging from its priority to deal with the Yao army, it hasn't been completely controlled by the Luo Sheng Armor yet, which is commendable." They learned from Fu Liushan that the more owners the evil armor changed, the more powerful it became. In the later stages, eight or nine out of ten people who put on this evil armor would become its slaves and end up in madness. "Go to Ke Mountain, didn't you want to go when you passed by last time?"

Dong Rui gave a dry laugh.

He was just curious; if the Luo Sheng Armor were really stuffed into his hands, he wouldn't want to wear it.

This thing breaks people's hearts, he'd better not go to accept the test.

"Hey?" He hurriedly changed the subject, "There seems to be red light flashing in the ruins again."

Earlier, when the black-armored person appeared, the red light in the ruins shot into the sky, and the formation was very large; but this time the red light in the ruins was only a little bit, not very conspicuous, that is, looking down from the sky, one could barely see it.

Borrowing He Lingchuan's metaphor from another world, it was like a cigarette butt lit in the dark night.

"Go take a look." There were really many accidents tonight.

Dong Rui himself was also about to walk to the ruins, preparing to meet up with him.

The bat demon puppet circled twice above the Ke Mountain ruins, and He Lingchuan finally had time to look closely at the former palace of the Flash Gold Empire.

Thousands of years had passed, and the treasury was naturally empty, but thirty-six platforms were built on the open space surrounding it, round outside and square inside, each nearly one zhang high. He Lingchuan looked down from a high position and took the shadow-piercing lamp from his bosom to act as a searchlight, and thus discovered that a series of bright red runes were engraved on the top of the stone platforms.

Few pigments could remain unfaded for a thousand years when exposed to the air, and these runes couldn't either.

So, someone had come to trace them? When He Lingchuan and the other person came over earlier, they happened to meet the black-armored warrior, and they didn't have the opportunity to pay attention to these runes.

Thirty-six platforms, just climbing up and down to trace red, was a physical job.

Below was still a forest of shadows, and He Lingchuan suddenly said again: "There is something moving below!"

Dong Rui pulled a long face: "Again? Could it be that a second set of Luo Sheng Armor has appeared in the world?"

The ghost ape also tightened its muscles and entered a combat-ready state.

Last time He Lingchuan said this, the bat demon puppet was attacked by the black-armored person in the blink of an eye.

However, He Lingchuan immediately patted the bat demon puppet's head and let it circle and descend: "It's okay, land."

"What is that?" In terms of eyesight, he was indeed not as good as He Lingchuan.

"It's a person, a living person." He Lingchuan frowned, "You know him too."

An outsider suddenly appearing here disrupted his original plan.

The current bat demon puppet had a wingspan of nearly five zhang in its complete form, and it was flying sand and stones when taking off and landing, and the movement was not small.

It landed in front of the Ke Mountain treasury, and He Lingchuan and the other person had already seen clearly that the source of the red light was part of the runes on the stone platform. However, the platform was very high off the ground, and one couldn't see these runes standing on flat ground, only the misty red light.

It was empty here, without a single shadow of a person, and the night wind blew through the treetops, making a *woo-woo* sound.

He Lingchuan jumped to the ground and raised his voice: "Come out, I already saw you in the sky."

A person turned out from behind the stone platform, full of anger: "Is the matter here caused by you?"

Although the sky was dark, He Lingchuan could also recognize this familiar face.

This person was Fu Liushan.

On a rainy night a few days ago, they stayed at a small town tavern, and this guy drank with them all night.

The next day, both sides went their separate ways, but Fu Liushan came toward Jing Mountain.

Dong Rui blinked: "We saw the red light and rushed over, we also want to know what exactly happened here."

Fu Liushan looked at him, then at He Lingchuan, still frowning, but there was a strange color in his eyes: "Eh, your voices are so familiar?"

From entering White Head Ridge to meet the fox demon, He Lingchuan and the other person wore masks the whole time, and Fu Liushan couldn't see their true faces, but he recognized their voices.

"Uh, He?" He first pointed at He Lingchuan, then pointed at Dong Rui, "Wei?"

Not a bit off.

After leaving Beijia, Dong Rui used the pseudonym Wei Yishan.

At this time, insisting on "I'm not, you recognized the wrong person" no longer had any meaning. He Lingchuan and Dong Rui looked at each other and didn't take off their masks: "It's us."

Fu Liushan's eyes flickered: "I knew you two weren't simple, how could you be like passing merchants? *Heh*, you also covet the things here?"

Even after recognizing He and Dong, his gaze was still full of vigilance.

Meeting again in the wilderness, and in this kind of place, both sides had their own ulterior motives. If they hadn't been drinking at the same table earlier, they would have already been at war.

Dong Rui caught his subtext: "Why don't you ask if the Luo Sheng Armor was taken away by us?"

Fu Liushan laughed *pfft*: "Taken away? *Ahahaha*, how could it be that easy! That Luo Sheng Armor has an owner."

"That's true." Dong Rui glanced at He Lingchuan, "As soon as we came over, that thing wanted to kill us, and chased us all the way."

Fu Liushan looked at their flying mount and was a bit envious: "You're lucky to be alive. This thing just broke free from the seal, its temper is the biggest, and it kills anyone it sees."

That these two could escape was mostly due to the flying mount.

He Lingchuan suddenly interjected: "We were escorting friends through Ke Mountain, when suddenly the red light here shot into the sky, so we came to see what was going on, and as a result, that black-armored person brought a pile of rock and soil puppets, and after meeting us, it started chasing us. Do you know what's going on with those rock and soil puppets?"

"A few years ago, two armies fought in Jing Mountain, and both sides had casualties. Perhaps some hatred and unwillingness were attached to the broken armor and were bound and used by the Luo Sheng Armor." Fu Liushan frowned, "And then? What did you do just now?"
