Chapter 101 Spirit Stone
After the big white goose took a pill, it became extremely excited, its eyes were red, and it flew faster and faster in the sky, much faster than usual.
Er Gouzi sat on the goose's back and felt the wind blowing across his face. Not long after, he had already reached Shekou Mountain.
At the foot of the mountain, a big battle was taking place.
This time, the cult and Zhang Youliang's rebels joined forces, with great momentum, and there must be tens of thousands of people gathered.
The two sides set up their battle formations at the foot of the mountain, and the sound of killing shook the sky.
The number of people on the Shekou Mountain side was several times less, and there were many women and children among them.
But under Ji Cang's careful teaching for several months, everyone practiced superior skills and battle formations.
In addition, Er Gouzi occasionally supplemented some spiritual food, and the average strength of a single person in the team was much stronger than that of the rebels.
On the surface of the battlefield, it seemed that the rebels had more people and had an advantage, but in fact, they did not take advantage of a single copper coin.
Er Gouzi brought Xiao Ezi to the foot of the mountain. Ji Cang and Sima Yi were still standing on a big rock and watching the battle calmly.
"You two are quite free."
He thought that with such strong strength, you didn't help kill a few enemies.
Ji Cang glanced at Er Gouzi and said calmly:
"You have also learned the art of war, and you should know that kindness cannot lead an army.
How can you cultivate excellent soldiers without experiencing the baptism of blood and fire?
Even if I am made of iron, how can I hit a few nails?"
"But you went to a wedding banquet, why did you bring the bride back?"
Ji Cang looked at Xiao Ezi in a bright red wedding dress and asked curiously.
"I killed the groom, and I raided the cult's nest, so of course I brought the person back..."
Er Gouzi roughly recounted the course of the incident.
Ji Cang's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he smiled inadvertently.
After making such a big grudge, it was impossible for Er Gouzi not to fight the cult from now on.
The cult has more than one or two branch nests, but has spread throughout the counties of Qingzhou.
"The cult's lair was raided! Did they steal a lot of good things?"
"That's for sure."
Er Gouzi glanced at the battlefield below, which was currently stable.
He took out the wooden box and opened it for Ji Cang to see.
"Help me see what this is."
"Spirit stone."
Ji Cang only took a glance and said casually, with a calm expression, not taking it seriously.
"It is indeed a spirit stone, I guessed it right."
Er Gouzi was overjoyed, closed the wooden box again, and put it away.
Even Sima Yi next to him couldn't help but look at it a few more times after hearing this.
Xiao Ezi heard that the stone was a spirit stone, and thought of Er Gouzi's parents, who died because of such a stone.
She hesitated to speak, but still didn't have the courage to say it, so she waited a little longer.
After Er Gouzi put away the spirit stone, he took out the bottle of black liquid and asked Ji Cang to identify it.
Ji Cang took it, opened the bottle cap, took a look, and then closed it again and gave it back to Er Gouzi.
"This is a poison that can kill immortal cultivators."
Er Gouzi took the bottle and happily closed the cap. He had wanted to get some poison for a long time, but he had no way.
"May I ask again, should this poison be taken orally or applied externally?"
He thought it would be better to ask more carefully to avoid making mistakes when using it.
"This poison can be taken orally or applied externally. It will take effect faster if taken, but it will take effect slower if applied externally."
"The speed at which the poison takes effect is also related to the strength of the opponent's cultivation."
"This low-level poison is not very effective for foundation-building cultivators."
"Thank you for your advice."
Er Gouzi happily put the poison away.
He was wondering, after the poison was put into the gourd to increase the spiritual energy, would it become more poisonous?
Or when being poisoned, could it also increase the cultivation?
It was indeed a bit confusing, so I could only slowly explore and experiment in the future.
"Do you have a storage bag?"
Seeing Er Gouzi stealing and taking things so smoothly and naturally, Ji Cang had wanted to ask for a long time.
"Ah... storage bag..."
Er Gouzi scratched his head and laughed dryly.
"I have hidden my little secret for many years, but I didn't expect you to find it."
Since Ji Cang saw the clue, Er Gouzi simply let it go and admitted it generously.
At this moment, even Sima Yi looked over curiously.
As far as he knew, in the entire Anchang County, only the county magistrate had a storage bag, and it was inherited from his ancestors.
Others may also have storage bags, but like Er Gouzi, they are all hidden tightly and no one knows.
"Who is so unlucky? Even the storage bag was stolen by you."
Ji Cang subconsciously felt that Er Gouzi had stolen a storage bag from somewhere.
"You have wronged me this time. My storage bag came from a legitimate source."
"It was passed down by my master."
"He has great magical powers and has long been a god-like figure. He just gave me one or two storage bags."
The master has already helped him bear a lot, and one more storage bag is not a big deal.
Anyway, the master is powerful and a god-like figure. This little thing is not a big deal for him.
Ji Cang and Sima Yi heard this and had to look at the legendary Li Banxian differently.
Everyone says that great people hide in the city, and it is true.
Er Gouzi talked to Ji Cang for a few words, but he was still worried about the battlefield.
"You guys scout the battlefield here, and I will go to help them."
As Er Gouzi said this, he flew into the sky again on the goose.
One person and one goose flew over the battlefield and looked down. There were many familiar figures among the rebels.
The original team of Zhang Youliang's men were all from Shexi Village, and later they took over some of the strongest members from other villages.
Therefore, many people in the team below are acquaintances who have often met and talked before, and some are playmates who grew up with Ergouzi.
He saw Goudan, crooked mouth, three bald men, squinting eyes...
Ah Hu, who was his tenant last year, is now leading a group of people to charge.
Most of them had no deep grudge against Ergouzi. They followed Zhang Youliang in rebellion in order to gain wealth and food and clothing.
Since you are following Zhang Youliang, you must obey orders.
Seeing these familiar faces, Ergouzi decided to give them a chance.
"Listen, folks in Snake Creek Village. I'll give you a chance to withdraw from the battlefield immediately. I will never hold you accountable afterwards."
He deliberately encouraged his energy and spread his words to the battlefield so that everyone could hear them.
After hearing what he said in the sky, many people did hesitate, and the movements of their hands were slower and hesitant.
Some people even held their weapons upside down and wanted to withdraw from the battlefield.
"Don't fall into the trap, everyone is in charge now."
"The time has come to test your loyalty!"
"If we fail this time, we will definitely liquidate you afterwards."
In the crowd, Zhang Youxin brandished a sharp sword, chopped off a villager's head, and shouted loudly.
"Send my order, anyone who dares to step back even half a step will be killed without mercy!"
"After the victory in this battle, each person will be rewarded with a dou of food, and those who can behead will be rewarded with a stone."
After Zhang Youxin yelled like this, everyone picked up their weapons again and charged forward with a roar.
Seeing this scene, Er Gouzi could only shake his head helplessly.
The book says that people do not harm tigers, but tigers harm people's hearts.
Seeing so many familiar faces, he didn't want to kill him, but they wanted to kill him and didn't want to give up.
Ergouzi sat on the goose's back, took out several tubes of chili pepper water, and sprayed it on the crowd below.
"Ahhhh..."
"My eyes..."
Soon there were screams from the crowd below.
After Ergouzi sprayed several tubes of pepper water, he didn't stop there.
He took out a few more flying arrows and threw them at a group of cultists below.
The flying arrows fell from high altitude, carrying great potential energy. They could smash even zombies with bronze skin and iron bones, killing the immortal cultivators below.
Under the attack of pepper spray and flying arrows, the team composed of cultists and rebels immediately fell into chaos.
Seeing this scene, Ji Cang immediately commanded his troops to charge forward, cutting off heads and causing rivers of blood to flow.
They pursued for more than ten miles until they reached the vicinity of Sanchazi Town, and then the team returned along the road.
In this battle, Shekou Mountain killed at least five to six thousand enemies with a team of three thousand people.
The coalition of rebels and cults temporarily hid in Sanchazi Town.
There are many houses here. As long as you hide in a room, you will not be afraid of the pepper spray from the sky.
After everyone calmed down for a moment, the old man from the cult counted the number of people and found that most of them were damaged.
He has been around for decades, but he has never seen this kind of method of spraying pepper spray from the sky.
At this moment, the cultists who stayed in Chengxi Town finally arrived and reported the news to the old man.
I learned that the old lair in Chengxi Town had also been raided by Ergouzi.
The old man was frightened and angry, and grabbed Zhang Youxin's neck.
"Where is your brother?"
"From the beginning of the war to now, I haven't seen any trace of your brother."
This time it was Zhang Youliang's idea to hook up with the cult to fight together. In the end, it was the cult that suffered the most losses.
Shekou Mountain didn't grab it, even its nest was raided.
The old man was so angry that he took it out on Zhang Youxin.
"My brother has been on the battlefield and will be back soon."
