Chapter 375 [King Cang’s personal soldiers, an unyielding army! The demon-suppressing master’s family, the noble spirit will live forever! ]
"You ask me, who should I ask?"
Song Lin made a "tsk" sound, his expression calm and composed, showing his natural acting skills.
The highest level of deception is to deceive yourself. The lies that are most easily believed must not be too perfect.
Hear this.
Han Tuizhi scratched his head in embarrassment. Even he didn't dare to ask his master such a question, let alone a new disciple like Song Lin.
"I'll go see Master first."
After saying that, he walked out in a hurry.
"Don't."
Song Lin didn't dare to let him go to Zuowang Peak, so he quickly pulled Han Tuizhi and said, "Master is in seclusion at a critical moment to transform his sword. I think this may be one of the reasons why he didn't show up."
"But he once told me that he would take action at the critical moment."
“What is a critical moment?”
Han Tuizhi stopped.
"That depends on how Senior Brother handles it." Song Lin said meaningfully.
"Ok?"
Han Tuizhi showed a puzzled expression.
Song Lin chuckled.
He said: "In our hearts, Master is a pillar that stabilizes the sea. In the eyes of the evil demons in the underworld, he is a sword hanging over the head. Those bugs hiding in the dark corners have been testing Master's bottom line."
“But because of this, it’s hard to catch them.”
"I think... Master is also waiting for an opportunity. And right now, there is such an opportunity."
He paused and looked at Han Tuizhi's gradually coming to terms with his expression.
He continued, "Aren't the Netherworld Ten Directions spreading the news of Master's death? We will use their tricks to make this rumor true and deceive everyone. As long as we can lure out the most hidden Red Moon Demon, Master will take action and decide the outcome with one sword..."
"hey-hey!"
Song Lin smiled and said, "The Netherworld Ten Dragons are leaderless. Our army's morale is greatly boosted and we will surely win a great victory."
"Sigh~~"
Han Tuizhi had a fascinated look on his face, as if he was brought into the scene described by Song Lin.
The Sword Master killed demons with one sword, and the Donglin army killed hundreds of millions of demons and made them flee in disarray. Under his command, the mountains and rivers were recovered, and immortal achievements were made.
"Wonderful!"
Shen Zanggu gave Song Lin a thumbs up.
This plan is really vicious.
Once implemented, the confidence of the Donglin army will collapse, and there will inevitably be huge casualties. However, the damage caused to the Netherworld will also be returned tenfold or a hundredfold.
But if we can find out the true identity of the Red Moon Demon, it will be worth it!
"However, this plan requires extremely high acting skills. I wonder if Senior Brother can do it?" Song Lin secretly provoked Han Tuizhi.
"Of course I can!"
Han Tuizhi suppressed his excitement: "As long as I can win, I can accept any price!"
"Little junior brother."
He patted Song Lin on the shoulder and said gratefully: "You don't need to worry that I can't let go. Temporary casualties in exchange for eternal peace. I know the pros and cons clearly!"
"If the situation continues to stalemate, more people will die in the future. But... I really feel sorry for those comrades who sacrificed their lives for this."
"Big Brother, those who achieve great things do not care about small details. I believe in you."
Song Lin slapped Han Tuizhi on the arm with his backhand.
"I believe in you too!"
Shen Zanggu placed his palm on Han Tuizhi's other arm, his eyes full of trust.
"Okay, I'll go back now. Your second brother is still in Shanhaiguan, guarding my 'double'. If I don't go back, I'm afraid I won't be able to keep it a secret for much longer."
Han Tuizhi nodded heavily.
"I've told you, don't worry."
Song Lin smiled strangely, "Isn't this the best opportunity? Let's make the people around us suspicious and gradually shake the morale of the army, and then the Netherworld Ten Directions will naturally get the news."
"When the time comes, they will naturally take action without us having to do anything."
"at last……"
He sneered.
"The news that the eldest brother secretly returned to the mountain is exposed. If he rushes back, everyone will believe that... the Sword Master is really dead. Those dark bugs who like to hide their heads and show their tails will naturally reveal their true colors."
"By the time……"
"When the time comes, please ask Master to take action, shoot the sword into the underworld, and clear the world!" Han Tuizhi said excitedly.
"Junior brother, your means of deceiving people are truly perfect!" Shen Zanggu couldn't help but sigh.
"Hehe~"
Song Lin chuckled softly.
Not only is he a good liar, he is also a veteran actor who can play multiple roles.
When I appear in my future incarnation as the 'Sword Lord', I hope you don't bang your heads too loudly!
"You're not going to lie to us, are you?"
Han Tuizhi gave him a questioning look.
"Tell me quickly, are you hiding something from us?" Shen Zanggu grabbed Song Lin's neck and asked viciously.
"Let go, let go, Senior Brother Shen, where is your sword-fairy demeanor! What kind of person is it to behave like such a hooligans, ah bucket..." Song Lin's face flushed red, and he struggled with his hands and feet dancing.
Han Tuizhi burst into laughter.
"Hahaha, you must have deceived countless women to be so good at cheating! Today, I will teach you a lesson in front of my sister-in-law!"
"The Sentimental Swordsman and the Ruthless Sword, it turns out that there is only a wrong name, not a wrong nickname! Back then, you were not the kind of person who..." Shen Zanggu sneered.
The sarcastic smell is exactly the same as that bastard Ye Liuyun.
This guy is a reserved swordsman!
"Bah! You are the one who is so ruthless!" Song Lin suddenly turned around and spit on Shen Zanggu's face.
"you……"
Shen Zanggu's face was filled with horror, and he subconsciously let go of his hand and wiped his face.
Song Lin took the opportunity to break out of the encirclement, ran away, and let out a triumphant laugh.
"Kid, don't run!"
"Just run, run, hahahahaha"
For a while.
The Jinlin Palace was filled with laughter.
Song Yuyan looked confused, wondering what "Pull out what is ruthless" was. The white rabbit was still eating like crazy, and its bulging belly seemed to be unable to be filled.
【The eighth day of the sixth lunar month.】
[More than a month has passed since Han Tuizhi returned to the mountains. The battle at Shanhaiguan has resumed, and the flames of war are raging. On the sixth day of May, the deputy commander of the Donglin Army, Cang Shentong, personally led 80,000 elite Cang clan members to launch a surprise attack on the Netherworld.]
[No one expected that at this critical juncture, Cang Shentong would go crazy and attack the headquarters of the Netherworld Ten Directions.]
【This campaign.】
[Eighty thousand Cang clan soldiers penetrated three thousand miles underground, swept through the underworld, and killed a million enemies. They destroyed three hundred and seventy evil demon nests, and cut off the connection between the underworld and the human world for three days.]
[The Demonic Heavenly Master was furious and ordered an attack on Cang Shentong and the Netherworld. Millions of evil demons surrounded and intercepted them, causing heavy losses to 80,000 Cang clan members.]
【For ten consecutive days.】
[Cang Shentong fought and retreated, and finally had nowhere to retreat. ]
[May 22nd is the day Han Tuizhi returned to the mountains.]
[Eighty thousand Cang clan members fought a heroic battle and were buried in the netherworld. Cang Shentong led the remaining troops to break out and finally returned to the surface.]
【However.】
[What awaits them is an encirclement by a 2 million-strong army of ground demons.]
【Cang Shentong turned his head and looked.】
[The remaining 3,000 Cang clan members were all injured and covered in blood. They supported each other and no one fell.]
【3,000 versus 3,000,000, no one showed any sign of retreat! 】
[“Raise the flag! Children of the Cang family, follow me—kill the enemy!” Cang Shentong’s roar resounded throughout Shanhaiguan. ]
[“Kill!” The three thousand defeated soldiers burst out with an unprecedented bloody murderous aura. Like a blood dragon determined to die, they charged into the army of millions of demons.]
[When the blood-stained 'King Cang Banner' stands tall above the blue sky. ]
[The army stationed at Shanhaiguan finally found their companions. A horn sounded throughout the world: "All troops, attack, bring back our comrades!"]
【This campaign.】
[Later generations named it the "Battle of the Mountains and Seas to Seize the Flag."]
[The three thousand remaining soldiers of King Cang faced the siege of millions of troops, but they still defended the King Cang flag and remained standing. Countless Donglin troops rose up to counterattack, united as one.]
【When everyone finally repelled the enemy. 】
【I only saw Cang Shentong leading three of his soldiers, all four of whom had broken limbs, and they were under the banner of King Cang. Corpses piled up into a mountain, and they used their bodies to protect the sacred banner in their hearts.
[Cang Shentong's limbs were all broken, his steel teeth were biting the flagpole tightly, and his eyes were looking at the sky unyieldingly.]
[King Cang's personal soldiers, an unyielding army! ]
[The tragic scene moved people and completely inspired the will of the Donglin army. ]
【May 23.】
[The commander of the army, Han Tuizhi, personally led the army to fight. The sword fairy Zhu Changsheng personally took action and killed the clone of Wuxiang Mozun with his sword. The five demon lords under the command of the Demon Heavenly Master took action and tried to kill the enemy commander in the middle of the army. He fell into a trap and was ambushed by the seven "Fighting Gods" of Douzhan Xuanfeng.]
【This campaign.】
【Zhu Changsheng and Sun Qiuyuan showed off their prowess. 】
[Sun Qiuyuan even used his golden body to slay the Dharma-like True Demon, and regained his father Sun Wufang's name of "Sun Xiaosheng". He fought unparalleled and became a saint in martial arts! ]
【After this.】
[The two sides fought back and forth, with each side winning and losing. ]
[The Evil Heavenly Master has many tricks and schemes, causing the deaths of at least tens of millions of soldiers and heavy losses to the Donglin Army. He gradually became a nightmare in many people's hearts.]
【After that, news came out.】
[The true identity of the Demon Heavenly Master is actually the disciple of the Demon Suppression Master family - Master Wande. ]
[Traitor to humanity, deserves death! ]
[Faced with the world's gossip, the demon-suppressing master family is ashamed. All the disciples tie white silk on their heads and fight to the death. They always rush to the front in every battle, using their lives to repay their debt to the world.]
【The first day of June.】
[Master Ling Qiang dragged his old body and died in front of Shanhaiguan. Before his death, he shouted: "Master's disciples, the noble spirit will live forever!"]
[The heroes were shocked and silent. ]
【So far. 】
[The demon-suppressing master family exists in name only, the backbone of the clan has completely collapsed, and there is no longer any strength to fight. There are only sixteen ten-year-old children left, and they want to carry the demon-suppressing banner and go to the battlefield in person...]
[Commander Han Tuizhi couldn't bear it, so he ordered the youngest son of the Master's family to be sent back, and the name of the Master's family that suppressed the demons was sealed. When he cleared up the world one day, he would return to the Master's family with great righteousness.]
【However.】
【This action made many people feel confused. 】
[Han Tuizhi's actions this time were consistent with his personality, but his manner and expression were both offensive to people.]
[The high-ranking officials from all sides of the East Lin spent a lot of time with him and discussed policies with him, and finally found something wrong. Without the support of Cang Shentong, 'Han Tuizhi' finally exposed his identity. ]
[The ninth day of the sixth lunar month.]
[A secret message spread throughout the Donglin army—the current Han Tuizhi is a substitute! ]
[The real Han Tuizhi has already returned to Donglinxian Cliff to investigate the life and death of the Sword Master. Now it has been more than a month and he has not returned yet. I am afraid...]
【For a while.】
[The Donglin army was in uproar, and undercurrents were surging. ]
