You have mastered the art of thunder and you tell me that it is in a strange world?

Chapter 251: Ah? Am I Xuzhou's helper?
Qingzhou master?

What are they here for?
"Is this coming with bad intentions?"

"They come with bad intentions." Zhao Laosan said, "They are coming straight towards you. They look aggressive and don't seem like people who are easy to talk to."

With a frown on his face, he waved his hand and said, "Tell these people below to speed up. The nobleman's work must not be messed up! Then select some good hands, and I will deal with them myself."

"it is good."

Zhao Laosan immediately went downstairs to call for help.

In fact, Mr. Yulu also knew that if he made such a big fuss in Qingzhou, he would definitely be discovered by the locals of Qingzhou.

In his expectation, the first person to come should be the mayor of a nearby county, and he only needed to take out more gold, silver and treasures to fool around with him. However, he did not expect to directly attract the other party's guests.

Not long after, Zhao Laosan brought a few more men to the layman's side. Each of them was holding a weapon and was capable of fighting under the layman.

But Mr. Yulu still felt uneasy.

The only one who is seriously powerful under his command is the third brother, and even he himself is not a good fighter.

After all, he was a scholar, not a warrior. When he was young, he was full of energy and perhaps he could come up with some more tricks.

now……

I'm afraid that before he can finish setting up his magic, he will be killed by someone.

After about an incense stick of time had passed, the sky darkened and everything was quiet.

Suddenly, there was a sound of breaking wind and a flash of cold light. Zhao Laosan was quick to take out a red handkerchief and threw it out.

The two objects collided and then fell to the ground.

Looking closely, I saw an arrow shining coldly on the ground.

The face of the monk Yulu was grim:

"Friends from Qingzhou, now that you are here, why are you still hiding?"

As soon as he finished speaking, several figures slowly walked out of the woods not far away. They were all wearing linen clothes and looked like peddlers or bodyguards. Some were from the lowest class, while others were from the middle class.

The momentum was extraordinary, and Mr. Yulu did not dare to underestimate it. He looked around the nearby woods and saw a figure swaying.

I’m afraid there will be quite a few people coming from Qingzhou this time.

Suppressing his anger, Yulu Layman asked:
"Everyone from Qingzhou, I'm Yulu from Jingdu. Everyone, is there any misunderstanding between us?"

"Misunderstanding?" Hearing this, an old man with a big hooked nose and eye sockets walked out from the other side of the Jianghu. He said, "Old ghost, you came to my Qingzhou to set up an evil formation, destroyed my seven mountains and four lakes, and helped those evil thieves in Xuzhou. What crime should you be punished for?!"

Yulu Layman: “???”

I?
Help the evil bandits in Xuzhou?

what?
And what are those seven mountains and four lakes? I have never even heard of them.

"Everyone, there must be some misunderstanding..."

"Misunderstanding! Let's attack together! Chop him up!"

With a loud shout, a large number of martial artists rushed forward with knives in hand. The hermit was also annoyed, so he simply ordered his men to charge forward as well, and the two groups fought together.

As soon as the action started, Yulu Jushi's men suppressed this group of guests.

Among them, Zhao Laosan alone can fight against many people.

Zhao Laosan just held a large piece of cloth, grabbed two corners, and suddenly covered four or five martial artists with it. The covered martial artists struggled for a long time under the cloth, screaming miserably. The object inside the cloth became smaller and smaller. Finally, Zhao Laosan took away the large piece of cloth, and the martial artists who were originally covered disappeared without a trace, and no one knew where they were.

Seeing the large piece of cloth, the old man from Qingzhou cursed, "Damn evil thing", then immediately rummaged in his arms and took out a wooden sign with a handkerchief.

The wooden sign was pure black, like steel, and emitted wisps of white smoke. Anyone who got close to it could feel a "burning" sensation. It seemed that only the handkerchief in his hand could isolate the heat emitted by Yiyi and prevent him from being burned.

Stretching out his left hand, the old man immediately took out a small knife and cut his finger, spilling a few drops of blood onto the wooden sign.

Wisps of blood smoke overflowed from the wooden sign and soon condensed into a blood-red dog-like creature with a human face and a dog body. It had a fierce look on its face and looked like a ferocious creature.

The dog tilted its head and bared its fangs at the old man. The old man held the token and shouted:

"You evil creature, you want to be beaten again? The thief is ahead! Go kill him! Go kill him!"

The dog beast turned its head, stared at Zhao Laosan, and pounced directly towards him. Zhao Laosan felt a scorching heat coming towards him.

He was startled and threw the cloth in his hand away, hoping to use it to stop the dog.

The moment the piece of cloth touched the dog beast, a blazing flame immediately ignited, climbing up from the bottom of the cloth, and in the blink of an eye it wrapped around the corner of Zhao Laosan's clothes.

"Oh my god!"

Zhao Laosan's eyes widened. He didn't even have time to cut out the burning area before the continuous flames enveloped his body.

Suddenly there were bursts of screams, and Zhao Laosan fell to the ground. The fire was still burning, but he was motionless.

"The third one!"

The eyes of the hermit in Yulu were about to burst.

He is really heartbroken!

After Zhao Laosan died, the remaining subordinates of Yulu Hermit were completely unable to stop this group of martial artists.

Being beaten back step by step, Yulu Jushi could only suppress his anger and retreat quickly under the cover of the guards at hand, leaving the battlefield.

Soon he ran back to the direction where the formation was set up in a somewhat embarrassed manner, his mind full of confusion.

What to do next?
The remaining people will definitely not be able to stop the Qingzhou group of guests.

Because of Mr. Yulu's identity, they would most likely not kill him, but he would still suffer a lot.

The key is,

The task assigned to you by a noble person will definitely fail.

This is something he doesn't want to see.
No time to continue polishing.

No matter what, at least we have to activate the formation!

Running to the formation he was in before, Yulu Monk grabbed his men who were still setting up the formation:

"Is the formation completed?"

"It's still a little short. Didn't you say it still needs some fine-tuning?"

"Get it open now!"

Hearing what Yulu said, the subordinate hurried to his position, raised his head and shouted:

"Open the formation!"

As he shouted loudly, the huge formation that had been set up long ago, with him as the origin, began to radiate white light like ripples outwards.

The dazzling light reached the sky and instantly swept away the clouds.

The strong light overwhelmed Yulu Hermit's body, and for a moment his breathing became difficult.

His eyes widened.

At this moment, Yulu Hermit discovered that
This formation can easily suppress all his abilities!
……

Xiao Changcheng's army arrived at the gate of Xuzhou Pass and set up camp there.

It’s not that Xiao Changcheng doesn’t want to enter Xuzhou, it’s mainly because…

His army could no longer handle so many prisoners of war.

There were simply too many soldiers in Changjun City. If Xiao Changcheng wanted to march without any hindrance, he could only kill all the people from Qingzhou and then advance with a bloody body.

If his army could maintain such a good momentum without Zuo Chen, Xiao Changcheng would really consider doing so.

But since Zuo Chen is here, Xiao Changcheng naturally won't do that.

Xiao Changcheng ordered his soldiers to tie up the people from Qingzhou and send them to Xinchun City one by one. Xinchun City was short of manpower anyway, so when the time came he would send someone to guard it and there would definitely be work for them to do.

As for Zuo Chen, he planned to continue moving forward and go straight into Qingzhou.

"Master Dao, are you leaving?"

"I'll go to Qingzhou first and calculate the time. After that, I'll probably go directly to Kyoto." Zuo Chen said, "If you have time, you can go to Kyoto together. I'll introduce you to some new friends then."

"Everyone I know must be a capable person, so I must meet them properly."

Xiao Changcheng said with a smile.

Zuo Chen said goodbye and left. Xiao Changben originally wanted to bring some soldiers to see Zuo Chen off, but Zuo Chen finally declined.

With Donkey Master and Caiyi, they could enter Qingzhou smoothly by just opening the hidden house. If there was really a large team following them, Zuo Chen estimated that he would probably have to use some mountain-opening technique to open the Qingzhou Pass.

After leaving the army, only Zuo Chen, Cai Yi and Lu Ye were left.
It didn't take them long on the journey before they arrived at Qingzhou Pass.

The appearance of Qingzhou Pass had not changed much since Zuo Chen left, but there were many more soldiers.

He was wearing heavy armor and staring nervously in the direction of Xuzhou, as if he was afraid that a group of troops from Xuzhou would rush over to break through.

Under the current circumstances, it is impossible to pass the checkpoint. Zuo Chen estimates that anyone who shows his head will be shot into a hedgehog.

But this is no problem for Zuo Chen.

He used the art of hiding his home and walked along the official road in a swaggering manner. When he reached the gate, he pushed the gate open with one hand and then closed it again without anyone noticing.

And just like that, I returned to Qingzhou.

"After a tour, we're back again." Donkey Master also scratched his head and sighed: "It was the three of us who left Qingzhou in the first place."

"Yes." Caiyi nodded, also full of nostalgia: "Uncle Lu, do you still remember what happened in Qingzhou? You were not yet wise at that time, right?"

"I don't remember clearly." Donkey shook his head: "Before I followed the Taoist priest, I lived a chaotic life. I ate and slept every day, and occasionally went to breed. Later, I followed the Taoist priest, and it was like the black and white in front of my eyes were colored. It was colorful and beautiful, comfortable and beautiful."

"Uncle Donkey, where did you learn so many elegant words?"

"I learned it from the Taoist priest." Donkey Master glanced at Caiyi and said, "It's been such a long time. Caiyi, you should learn something from the Taoist priest."

Caiyi: "..."

Caiyi was inexplicably scolded by Donkey Master and was sulking in anger, muttering things like "So what if I'm uneducated?", which made people laugh.

After getting away from the pass, we finally could not see any soldiers anymore. The beautiful mountains and rivers of Qingzhou did indeed ease a lot of the murderous spirit.

Unfortunately, the good weather did not last long, and the sky began to become cloudy. Zuo Chen checked the wind and thought it was going to rain, so he simply searched the area nearby.

I found a mountain temple and went in to take shelter from the rain. When I arrived at the door, I discovered that there was a horse tied outside, eating grass leisurely. I guess there was already someone there.

When I came in, I found that there was already a young girl from the martial arts world in the temple, and there was a slightly skinny scholar next to her.

"Little scholar, let me tell you, there was a great light in the state two days ago. It must be that a treasure appeared. Are you interested in going to take a look?"

"I don't have any skills, so I won't get involved."

When Zuo Chen came in, the two were chatting. When they saw Zuo Chen coming in with the donkey cart, they stopped talking and made way for him.

Zuo Chen thanked him with a smile, got off the donkey cart, and found a clean place.

After sitting down, Caiyi glanced at the young female knight and the scholar, blinked, and moved closer to Zuo Chen.

"Master? Who is that scholar?"

"Yeah. Earthbound spirit."

Zuo Chen stared at the scholar not far away.

He has a ghostly aura and is not a living person.
