The Great Sage is coming, and my mother is actually the White Bone Demon

Chapter 130: The Lonely City of Tang Dynasty
Bai Ze rode on a yellow ox, following behind Guanyin Bodhisattva, flying all the way south.

Obviously, Guanyin Bodhisattva took into account the speed of Bai Ze and the other two. She did not use any magic that could make them arrive in an instant or shrink the distance, but just let Bai Ze and the other two keep up.

The few of them flew over thousands of mountains and rivers, and Bai Ze looked at the scenery on the earth.

There was a thousand-foot-tall tiger roaring in the forest.

A giant three-headed fish jumped out of the water. Its body was a thousand meters long.

At this time, Bai Ze saw a clear stream in the mountains and thought it was a clear creek. However, the creek moved and turned out to be a green python tens of thousands of meters long.

Bai Ze was a little surprised. Is this really the Shenzhou continent he remembered?
The Tang Dynasty is located in the east of this divine land.

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "If Tang Monk obtains the true scriptures and returns to the Tang Dynasty, the fortune of the Tang Dynasty will be greatly improved, and it will be difficult for evil creatures to enter the Tang Dynasty. The evil creatures in the Tang Dynasty will also be greatly suppressed."

As he spoke, Guanyin Bodhisattva brought Bai Ze to a place where there was endless yellow sand in front of them, with no end in sight.

In the middle of the yellow sand, there is a lonely city. On the city hangs a flag with the word "Tang" written on it.

Guanyin Bodhisattva pointed at the city and said, "Look, that is the Suiye City of the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions. Li Changan has been guarding the Western Regions alone for decades.

In the entire Suiye City, he is the only Tang person left. All the others are dead. It has become an empty city, and the demon army is surging outside.

However, Li Changan, with only his sword, has been guarding the lonely city alone for thirty years."

Bai Ze asked: "This... Is there no one to support Li Changan?"

Guanyin Bodhisattva said: "The route has been cut off by Tubo, so there will be no support.

This Li Changan's name is Chang'an, but he has never been to the mainland of the Tang Dynasty. He was born and raised in Suiye City, but he has a stronger sense of responsibility than many Tang people in Chang'an City.

In his belief, not an inch of the Tang Dynasty's territory must be lost.

Both of his eyes were blind and one of his legs was lame, but none of the 100,000 demon soldiers could survive the sword in his hand."

Bai Ze asked, "Master, can I go see Li Changan?"

"Yes, after you meet him, you can go to Putuo Luojia Mountain by yourself. I will leave first."

Guanyin Bodhisattva disappeared on the spot and returned directly to Mount Putuo Luojia.

Bai Ze rode on a yellow ox, descended from the sky with a "da da da" sound, and arrived at the gate of Suiye City.

The city is already in ruins, and the plaque on the tower is crooked.

Bai Ze only saw a blind old man sitting on the top of the city wall, leaning on a black sword, exuding endless murderous intent.

It seemed as if he would kill anyone who dared to take a step forward.

Bai Ze had just approached when Li Changan swung his sword, cutting a groove in the ground, blocking Bai Ze's steps forward.

Li Changan stood up, holding the sword and pointing it straight at them: "Whoever dares to offend the Tang Dynasty will be punished no matter how far away they are. You little demon, why don't you retreat quickly?"

Bai Ze said: "General, you misunderstood. I am also from the Tang Dynasty. I heard that you have been guarding the empty city alone for thirty years, so I came to visit you."

Li Changan raised his head and howled: "Hahaha, do you think that I am blind and my heart is blind too?

The road from the mainland to here has long been blocked, so how could people from the Tang Dynasty come here?

You are clearly emitting the aura of a monster, how could you be a human from the Tang Dynasty?

You must be that demon..."

As Li Changan spoke, he frowned. He looked more carefully and found that Bai Ze not only had the aura of a demon, but also another aura.

That is the unique aura of the people of the Tang Dynasty!
He couldn't be wrong. As compatriots, blood is thicker than water. He had already sensed the blood connection between the people of the Tang Dynasty.

"Strange... strange... you are obviously not supposed to be my fellow Tang Dynasty compatriot, why do I have this feeling?" Li Changan began to be unable to distinguish the aura of Bai Ze.

More importantly, he also sensed the aura of the Human Emperor from Bai Ze.

This is even more outrageous!

The lineage of the Human Emperor has long been extinct, and the current Emperor of the Tang Dynasty is only the Son of Heaven, not the Human Emperor.

Why does this monster have the aura of a human emperor?
Bai Ze saw the demonic energy surging from Li Changan's body, and the black path was like sticky ink, as if it was going to dye the sky city black.

Bai Ze said: "You said I was a demon, but you are full of demonic energy. Why is that?"

Li Changhao said: "The devil is merciless and invades my border. If I don't turn myself into a devil, how can I suppress the villains?

If I don't kill, how can I stop killing? Hahahaha, hahahaha, kill kill kill!"

The surging murderous aura and endless demonic energy all rushed out from Li Changan, causing Bai Ze to feel a chill down his spine.

Bai Ze understood. Li Changan had been guarding the empty city alone with only a sword for thirty years. He had driven himself into a state of madness. If he had not driven himself into a murderous demon, how could he have guarded the border for the Tang Dynasty for thirty years alone?
Bai Ze stepped forward and said, "Old General, I have no ill intentions. I am indeed a Tang Dynasty person..."

Bai Ze thought about how to explain it. He couldn't say that he came from a time travel and was a citizen of the Tang Dynasty before traveling through time.

He said: "I was originally a citizen of the Tang Dynasty, but after my unfortunate death, my remains absorbed the essence of the heaven, earth, sun and moon, and eventually developed intelligence, becoming the White Bone Demon we know today.

So, the general thinks I am a monster, but in fact I am a citizen of the Tang Dynasty. "

"That's it!"

Li Changan believed it now. He put away his sword and said, "My old friend has come from afar. Please come into the city. Please come into the city and drink a few glasses of wine with me. No one has talked to me for thirty years."

At this moment, the majestic and murderous old man turned into an old naughty boy, waiting eagerly and expectantly, hoping that his friends from the Tang Dynasty would drink a few glasses of wine with him.

"Okay, the general and I will drink three hundred cups."

Bai Ze strode towards the city, which made Li Changan very happy. He danced like a naughty old grandfather and led the way for Bai Ze.

He limped and was blind, but he had walked through this city so many times that he could get around without his eyes.

He is so happy!
After thirty years, he finally saw a living person again... well, it was a skeleton, but anyway, it was an old friend from the Tang Dynasty. This day was happier than the New Year.

Suiye City was in ruins. Apart from the whistling wind and the sand hitting people's faces, there was no sign of life at all.

This is an empty city!
Bai Ze asked: "Old General, are you the only one left here?"

Li Changan said: "Who said I am the only one left? Aren't the three thousand soldiers buried at the Sixiang Cliff outside the city all there?"

Bai Ze asked, "How long are you going to wait?"

Li Changan said: "I will guard it until I can guard it as long as I can, until I am buried in the cliff of homesickness."

Bai Ze said: "What's the point? You will die here in the end. In the end, no one will even know what you did."

Li Changan laughed and said, "Hahaha, this 'city' knows everything I do, this 'wind' knows everything I do, and this 'sand' knows everything I do.

The 'three thousand old brothers' buried under the Nostalgia Cliff know everything I have done."

Bai Ze was really moved by him!
If China had more people like Li Changan, why would it fear the invasion of foreign powers?

Li Changan brought Bai Ze to a room. On one side of the wall was a row of wine jars, and on the other side were hung various bacon, grains, vegetables and fruits.

This was different from what Bai Ze thought. He thought that Li Changan was alone and that daily necessities would be extremely scarce, but he did not expect that they were extremely abundant.

Perhaps sensing Bai Ze's doubt, Li Changan pointed at those things and said, "These were all sent by the demons. They couldn't break into the Western Regions, and they hated me at first, wishing to tear me into pieces.

Later, they sent money, beautiful women, fine clothes and delicious food, trying to bribe me, but all failed.

Later on, they began to admire me, and whenever they came with their troops to challenge me, they would all bow to me three times before starting the battle.

In normal times when there is no war, they would also send me wine and meat to ensure my living needs."

Are even the enemies moved?
Yes, if I were facing such an opponent, who was full of patriotism and guarding the empty city alone with only a sword for decades, I would probably admire him, right?
"I'll go into the kitchen and cook a few dishes for my friends!" said Li Changan.

"General, you don't have to do anything. Just let my puppet do it."

Bai Ze summoned several skeleton soldiers, and the skeleton soldiers began to busy themselves around.

Bai Ze said, "I heard there is a man named Li Bai, who was also born in Suiye City. I wonder if the general has heard of him?"

Li Changan said: "Are you talking about the one who can write poetry?

He and I were childhood playmates, and his Green Lotus Sword Song and swordsmanship were unrivaled in the world.

He once laughed at me for being illiterate. He said he was unwilling to spend his whole life in the desert and his dream was to go to a big city and display his talents.

I chose to stay here and guard the frontier for those who can show their talents.

We chose different paths. How many years have passed since we last met? "

Bai Ze listened quietly.
