Chapter 66 Friendship

Cangyu City.

In addition to the Demon Suppression Division and the City Lord's Mansion, there are three major families entrenched in Cangyu City, headed by the Liu family, which has been rooted in Cangyu City for hundreds of years.

The other Qi family and Zhao family rose later. The Qi family was a branch of another city family that migrated here. One generation of people operated here and built a considerable foundation in just a few decades.

At this moment, the news of the monster attacking the city has been passed to the heads of the three families.

When they saw the news, the three families were a little shocked. In the past hundred years, Cangyu City has never had a monster attacking the city again.

The most sensational thing was thirty years ago, when several big monsters entered the city to cause trouble, causing countless deaths and injuries, which was a sensation.

But now, only some old people still have impressions.

"The military report will not be false, Lao Zhang, go and have a look."

Liu Shunqing, the head of the Liu family, immediately sent the family worshiper to find out the truth.

The other two families also sent people to investigate at the same time, and soon brought back true news.

A large number of monsters are emerging from the north, sweeping over. It is roughly estimated that there are at least 40,000 to 50,000 monsters.

Various mountain spirits and ghosts are mixed in them, and they are obviously led by the big monster.

These monsters occupied the official road and blocked several other roads. It is said that on the commercial road in the south, two escort companies were robbed and killed, and jewels hidden in grain were found on the road.

Monsters blocked the road, and the big monsters approached the border. This is the momentum of attacking the city!

"North? Isn't it the group of monsters in the Black Wind Mountains?"

"Are these monsters crazy? They are so brave that they dare to invade. Aren't they afraid that the Xia family will be angry and kill them all!"

"Damn it, what is Yue Shuhong doing? Did he offend the monster king?"

"Have you seen anyone from the Xia family?"

The three major families were a little panicked. The number of 40,000 to 50,000 monsters, what is this concept? The military garrison of the entire Cangyu City is only more than 20,000 soldiers and horses.

The fact that the number of monsters has doubled is secondary. Since these monsters intend to attack the city, they are naturally very confident and well prepared.

And the monsters who can control such a large number of monsters must be at least in the realm of divine wandering, or even fifteen miles!

…

At the same time, in the north, the black monster cloud has approached.

The storm is coming, and the whole city is on alert.

As the purple wolf smoke ignites and rises into the sky, the four city gates are all blocked, and the city defense soldiers on duty all put on armor and come to the top of the city.

At this moment, looking at the top of the city in the north, many soldiers' faces have changed.

I saw the thick monster cloud, with a touch of red in the black, hovering over the north, approaching at an alarming speed.

"Are these monsters crazy? They dare to attack the city!"

Many city defense soldiers are unbelievable. This is Dayu. Although it is a border city, it is not the most border city. The other party dares to cross the border and violate it. Aren't they afraid of angering the royal family and sending a large army to attack?

In their decades of experience as city defense soldiers, these monsters were usually invisible except for occasional riots in the suburbs, so they had never seen such a big battle.

The news of the monster attacking the city spread throughout the city. The blocked city gates and the city defense soldiers running around the city made it impossible to hide the news.

Every household was ordered not to go out, and only the sound of galloping horses could be heard on the streets.

Many inns, restaurants, teahouses and shops also closed their doors.

Some people were worried that the monsters would break through the city defense, and they were worried; some people were complaining that the damn monsters affected their business; others had already asked their families to pack up their gold and silver, and sent their servants to prepare carriages and horses, ready to abandon the city at any time.

However, some wealthy families in the city also used their connections to pass on the message to the city defense master, asking if there was any help needed, and were willing to provide gold and silver materials to jointly resist the monsters.

Under the disaster, all kinds of people were revealed.

At this time, in the city lord's mansion.

In the backyard of the towering mansion, in a dark basement as dark as a dungeon.

Yue Shuhong stood here, staring at a painting in front of him.

He was tall and slender, wearing a Confucian robe, and had a scholarly air, but at this moment, half of his face was hidden in the shadow of the oil lamp and could not be seen clearly.

The painting showed a woman wearing a light green Luo skirt, her eyes looking around her body, and the painting was exquisite, so the person in the painting was lifelike.

Suddenly, a black smoke appeared from the shadow behind him, slightly twisted, and changed into a burly and huge man.

The other party had a wide face and big eyes, with thick beard at the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were faintly red in the dark.

"Brother Yue, are you thinking about your sister-in-law again."

The wide-faced man grinned slightly, as if smiling.

Yue Shuhong did not turn around, but his expression seemed to be slightly touched, and he came back to his senses from his thoughts.

He sighed softly and said, "Tiger Robe, how long have we known each other?"

"More than twenty years." The broad-faced man said.

"Twenty years..."

Yue Shuhong whispered to himself, "I am fifty-three this year. When I was thirty, I entered the realm of divine wandering. I was full of vigor and vitality and was transferred here to serve as the city defender. In the blink of an eye, it has been twenty years."

The man who was thirty years old and still had a sword on his waist, now has nothing on his waist.

The broad-faced man nodded slightly, with a sigh in his eyes, and a trace of envy and jealousy:

"You humans are born smart and stand above all other races. You can cultivate to the realm of divine wandering in just a few decades, but we monsters need hundreds of years to absorb the sun and the moon to cultivate to this level. I am really jealous!"

Yue Shuhong's mouth twitched slightly, and he said, "But you have seen Tiger Robe, there are a few people in our human race who can live for hundreds of years."

The broad-faced man shook his head, with a little disdain in his eyes:

"If you reach the realm of divine wandering, you can live for nearly a thousand years, but you humans just like to seek death. Look at those guys in the God General's Mansion. They can live comfortably and forever, but they have to fight with our demons at the border. In the end, they all died at a young age."

Yue Shuhong couldn't help but smile:

"Yes, this may be the difference between our human race and your demon race. The hundreds of millions of people of Dayu, the vast land of the 19 states, every inch of soil, has the blood of those geniuses flowing."

"Because some people died, more people can survive!"

The broad-faced man narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "Brother Yue, you shouldn't be as stupid as those stupid guys, right?"

Yue Shuhong turned around, and the half of his elegant face that was originally illuminated by the warm light of the oil lamp was now hidden in the darkness.

"For the past twenty years, I have provided you with human meat and tried my best to meet your needs. Why, in the end, it still has to come to this?"

His voice was very soft, as if he was talking to himself.

The broad-faced man stared at him deeply, sighed softly, and said: "I didn't want to come here. The Red Eyebrow Taoist woke up from his retreat and was hungry. Moreover, the purpose of this trip was not entirely to fill his stomach. The real purpose of targeting your Cangyu City was the Xia family."

"Xia Family?"

"That's right. You asked for help from the Xia family, but the Xia family didn't dare to come, just because they were facing more difficult problems and didn't dare to be distracted. At this time, if the rear Cangyu City was lost and the whole city was destroyed, it would definitely affect them. If your emperor sitting in the palace was angry and punished the Xia family, it would be even better."

The broad-faced man said softly: "So, Cangyu City...you can't save it."

Yue Shuhong took a deep breath and closed his eyes slightly.

It turned out that the demon clan was playing such a game of chess.

"Brother Yue, I came here to ask you to open the northern city gate. The destruction of Cangyu City is inevitable. If you open the city gate, I can help you say a few words in front of the Red Eyebrow Taoist and give you a chance to survive." The broad-faced man said.

Yue Shuhong opened his eyes and smiled: "Thank you, Brother Tiger Robe."

"You can do it right away." The broad-faced man said: "Our friendship is here, I will definitely protect you."

"Yes."

Yue Shuhong nodded, then turned around and walked to the side, but not to the desk, but to the weapon rack.

"Brother Yue?"

"Brother Tiger Robe."

"I see."

The red light in the eyes of the broad-faced man became brighter, and his mouth slightly opened: "Brother Yue, you really make me sad!"

"I am sad too, sad for you."

Yue Shuhong chuckled: "Brother Tiger Robe, after twenty years of friendship, I will definitely use your tiger head to brew the best wine."

"Thank you."

The teeth in the mouth of the broad-faced man gradually extended and sharpened: "I will also taste you slowly."

As the breath of the two gradually became stronger, each other's souls were revealed. Yue Shuhong's soul gathered on the top of his head, while behind the broad-faced man, a ferocious and huge tiger was faintly revealed.

"So it's here."

Suddenly a voice sounded beside the two people's ears.

Then, a gap suddenly appeared in the sky above the basement, and a figure slowly floated down and stood in the center of the confrontation between the two.

Wearing black clothes and holding a broken black knife, the man who came was Li Hao who rushed back to the city.
