331、Important(1/2)
Su Li's hiding place was very hidden.
He took the advantage of darkness to the extreme. The platform seemed to be illuminated by a bonfire, but there were still narrow and dark dead corners.
The Holy Lotus Altar scholars chanted repeatedly, and their raised hands were like a shaking forest under the bonfire. In this scene of demons dancing with light and shadow, Su Li could hide every step of his step until the blade suddenly appeared.
"boom."
With a loud bang, the temporary platform collapsed.
Everyone was shocked and dodged in panic.
Mo Li's pupils contracted, and quickly realized that this was a trap. Master Luo always sat high on the stage, and none of the people from the Holy Lotus Altar went up.
This platform is very high, and there is no building on all sides to leverage. Huaxian is originally a small place, and the highest house is only two floors.
For this "sacrifice of the sky", the Holy Lotus Altar specially cleared the annoying eaves and awnings. The church members could directly see the stars in the night sky when they knelt on the ground. This made Su Li only choose among the crowd when hiding, or the roofs far apart. This distance was not short. In order not to be exposed early, Su Li could only step on the edge of the platform and suddenly leaped forward and stabbed a fatal blow.
This knife was lost.
Because the place where Su Li was leveraging the force suddenly collapsed, and then several wooden boxes nearby that acted as steps sizzled and exploded instantly.
The explosion went into the air, covering Su Li.
At a critical moment, he curled up suddenly, protecting his head, chest and abdomen with his arms and legs.
There is not much fire and medicine in the trap, and Master Luo doesn't want to send himself and the church members to heaven, so what is really "deaf" is the machine barrel that is buried in the trap and triggered together.
Those plum blossom needles, caltrops, and bone-transparent nails accompanied by choking smoke and dust directly covered the entire collapsed platform tightly.
There was only a whistling sound in my ears. The hidden weapon was ejected by the machine spring, and it was pushed by the energy, rolling all over the sky, bumping together randomly. There were only a constant wailing sounds, and the Holy Lotus Altar scholars near the high platform fell.
These people are not soldiers of the rebel army, they are all guys with sparse martial arts skills but very quick-witted. Most of them are from the world who come to the King of Heaven. Then they find that it is better to join the Holy Lotus Altar to fool people than to lead troops to fight. They don’t have to worry about food and drink, and have a high status.
They were very good at posing, and they wanted to sacrifice to the sky to draw out their deceptive fancy outfits. The Tao is not like the Tao, and the monk is not like the monk. They are lined up in a few lines and waving magic weapons, reflecting the bonfires, and they can hardly see their faces clearly.
Of course, it is not true that there are only these characters who are not on the stage around the Holy Lotus Altar, so eight saints and four guardians were arranged to support the scene.
Su Li has been wandering around in the Tianshu King camp for many days. He has seen the four guardians and even knew the names and nicknames of these four. He paid special attention to the direction during the assassination, and he believed that he could only react when the third sword attacked.
——All of these fall into calculations.
It is much easier to set traps for clever killers than those stupid assassins.
Su Li stepped into the "good" position reserved for him by Master Luo.
"Hahaha!"
Master Luo laughed loudly and shouted decently, "The demon is killed!"
The soldiers of the Rebel Army only heard the roar and screams, and ran away in shock.
"The demon has appeared!"
"Do not to escape!"
They pushed and shoved, like headless flies, and were immediately blocked by soldiers guarding the periphery.
The leader was the King of Heavenly Scholars wearing a golden robe and a purple gold mask.
The eyes behind the mask were filled with strange purple light, and the cold and deep gloomy. When they made a move, the crowded soldiers suddenly felt as if they encountered an invisible huge wave, and their bodies were pushed to both sides.
"King, King?"
Everyone looked at each other, and the Holy Lotus Altar Master said loudly: "The Star Lord is here, and ordinary people can't kneel down quickly."
The habit was much faster than the brain. Everyone knelt together and suddenly realized that there was danger here, so they rushed to express their loyalty.
"Star Lord is gone quickly, that demon is here."
"Yes, Xingjun wants to avoid disaster..."
Several generals around the King of Heavenly Sutra showed unspeakable twisted expressions.
——Although I think it’s good to pretend to be a god and fool the people to work hard, and I don’t have to worry about the source of soldiers and don’t have to pay the salary, sometimes I feel that this is a group of idiots. The Holy Lotus Altar can trick them into pieces with just a few words. After the situation is successful in the future, the soldiers who can be replaced will be replaced.
The people from Pili Hall followed from afar.
Lei Xian, who looked like an elder, taught his lesson to the nephew of the Lei family around him: "See, I have long suspected that the King of Heavenly Sutra I saw a few days ago was a substitute, and this is the real King of Heavenly Sutra. It turns out that this King's martial arts are not bad, so I really don't show it."
The person wearing the purple gold mask at this moment is nothing else, it is Zheng Tu.
Unfortunately, Zheng Tu's martial arts skills were much better than Lei Xian guessed, and he heard this low voice.
Zheng Tu was so angry that he looked down on these people from Pili Hall in his heart.
——The substitute has not been very good these two days, but the ones you met before were also puppets!
At best, that one is more good at pretending, and he is so clever that he and Master Luo are satisfied.
"If you don't dare to face the demon, how can you survive this disaster?" Zheng Tu pressed his voice and made a majestic voice that was very different from usual.
No one dared to speak now, and looked at the ruins of the platform in fear.
The smoke rolled, and you could clearly see a blood-red shadow in the fog swept and moved at an extremely fast speed.
However, no matter how fast the shadow is, it is trapped in that small area and cannot be removed.
"Master Luo has controlled the demon!"
The soldiers of the Rebel Army began to cheer, and the fanaticism reigned their reason.
However, the people from the Holy Lotus Altar were afraid of looking at each other and failed to shout out those words of bewitching soldiers in time.
Looking at the Holy Lotus Altar Cult lying all over the floor, I thought it was a good idea to follow Master Luo to do this sacrifice to the sky, and the person who was not selected was a little annoyed, but in the blink of an eye he became a victim. Even a fool could see that this was a trap to catch demons.
But in a blink of an eye, they were relieved. This was a disaster that people with precious destiny must go through. It was not their turn to die.
Even a saint lying on the ground injured stopped struggling. She endured the pain and climbed to the side, preparing to slowly pull out the hidden weapon that was pierced into her body. Of course, it was not good to be beaten into a sieve, but as long as she survived, the attacks by demons could give her identity a layer of gold.
The other survivors also reacted, crawling around desperately, and laughing at others, as if they were so relieved to see the demon appear. It was worth it to die for Star Lord.
“…”
Mo Li stared at all this and her heart slowly sank.
Although he realized that Su Li had fallen into a trap, Mo Li did not feel that this was an impossible task when the soldiers of the Rebel Army and the members of the Holy Lotus Ornament fled in a hurry.
Then he found out that he was wrong.
The enemy hidden in the dark, the enemy he and Meng Qi had guessed several times were right in front of him!
The trap against killers, the posture of shocking the fools, and even the false lie that makes people willing to endure the pain when it seems absurd, and they have to work hard to maintain it without caring about losing their lives...
If Qiu Si's means of playing with people's hearts are obscure and clever, the King of Heavenly Suo is to use crude and direct interests to subdue his subordinates.
However, the bait benefits given by the former are still real benefits. Even if you are cheated in the end, you can at least bite the meat, and the wonderful taste brought by the meat is not false. The latter is making money and fighting for the vain benefits will be lost.
This is by no means a long-term way to truly control subordinates and control the power.
Mo Li never understood so clearly what Meng Qi said, "The King of Heaven needs to defeat Jingzhou as quickly as possible and incorporate the forces of Jingzhou."
Before Qiu Si died, he was preparing to give Jiangnan to King Tianshu to abuse him. Everyone, including him, was not optimistic that King Tianshu could gain a foothold in Jiangnan because this group of mobs cannot last long. Locusts gathered due to the right time and place, and were overwhelmed by the sky and earth. However, the cold wind would fall apart and disappear.
Will the Heavenly King himself not know this weakness?
How does he want to complete the transformation?
Taking Jingzhou is only the first step. How can we get rid of the robbery of Jiangnan and collude with evil religions in a short period of time?
The so-called "no matter whether you are born, you can only defeat all forces. Even so, there are so many people who are unhappy in serving such bandits. The foolish people can be deceived, and it will not be so easy for King Tianshu to go further.
Mo Li's intuition told him that this answer was related to the true identity of the King of Heavenly Scholar.
Mo Li tried his best to restrain himself. Although he saw Su Li, who was injured, was in a tough battle and saw the masked King of Heavenly Sutra appear, before he was sure that there was no other trap, the result of his rash move was to completely fall into the other party's plan.
When Mo Li's eyes flashed over the generals of the rebel army with different expressions for the third time, he suddenly found that one person was missing.
Where is Zheng Tu?
The elder of Pili Hall happened to provoke Zheng Tu's fault at this moment and said arrogantly: "Why did General Zheng disappear after such a big thing happened?"
King Tianshu glanced coldly to the left, and Zheng Tu's troops, who were standing there, immediately cursed secretly, wishing to slap old man Lei.
"Our general was stationed outside the city before nightfall." Zheng Tu's personal soldiers lowered their heads and explained, "Not only General Zheng, there are several other generals of the Divine Martial Arts. The ceremony of worshiping the sky is important. If you want to catch demons, you must also be wary of the Jingzhou army and the assassins in the martial arts world."
——Others are indeed patrolling and garrisoning, but Zheng Tu is speculating on the knife marks on the city wall, starting yesterday.
He was also very fascinated by the sight, which many people, including Mo Li, saw with their own eyes.
Mo Li was reluctant to take action, and it was also because she was wary of Zheng Tu.
Mo Li held his breath and kept his voice looking for places where people might be hidden. The original simple thing was, but because the gathering crowd interfered with Mo Li's judgment, Su Li was almost unable to hold on.
The explosion defeated Su Li's body-protecting true energy, making it impossible for him to shake the hidden weapon.
At this moment, Su Li was covered in bruises. Even though he reacted in time, no hidden weapon hit the vital point, the countless fine wounds on his limbs were thrust into the air when he fought with Master Luo, his true energy was turbulent and he could not heal and he continued to bleeding.
From a distance, it looks like a rolling demon blood shadow.
"wrong."
Mo Li suddenly woke up.
Zheng Tu was not hiding on his side. Zheng Tu couldn't be more like a killer than Su Li, and could not even detect the dragon veins.
To be continued...
