Chapter 49
Li Pingbo waved his hand and signaled everyone around him to retreat.
"What's wrong?" Lu Shanhe asked.
Li Pingbo pondered for a moment and said slowly: "Brother Lu, the reinforcements of the Yellow Realm are about to arrive. The opening of the Light Gate is very fluctuating. The demon snake will definitely lead the demon beast army to siege the Light Gate, just like besieging us.
Brother Lu, I have an idea and want to discuss it with you."
Lushanhedao: "You are the boss of the big shopkeeper. You are the head coach of the army. You should make your own decision on reinforcement of the Guangmen. I will cooperate with you."
Li Pingbo smiled and said, "Brother Lu is the great master of Jindan sent by the association. Brother Lu must know about this."
Lu Shanhe nodded and said, "Please speak with the big shopkeeper."
Li Pingbo: "Brother Lu, we all know that the demon snake will definitely lead the demon beast army to appear at the Guangmen, so its nest will inevitably be empty. This is what I plan. Why don't we send a team of elite monks to penetrate its nest while its nest is empty and cut off its way!"
Lu Shanhe frowned and said, "Is this necessary? As long as we can kill the Demon Snake King, isn't it natural to seize its nest?"
Li Pingbo sighed: "The monster snake is extremely fast. Last time I was trapped by your demon-binding talisman by Brother Lu, I will definitely pay attention this time. We may not be able to leave it. If we let it escape, it will not be easy for us to gather many monsters to guard the nest.
And Brother Lu, you forgot that the last time the demon snake was cut off by me, I thought it had been severely damaged, but who knew that it immediately recovered after returning to its nest and grew its wings, which brought us great damage. If we did not try to destroy its recovery ability, even if we had reinforcements, it would be extremely difficult to kill it and capture the mountains and forests.
Only by sneak attacks and taking over its nest and trying to destroy the things that can help it recover quickly can we be absolutely sure to kill it!
So I thought, now we can send a team to sneak into its nest, one is to destroy the things that can help it recover quickly, and the other is to set traps in its nest. Even if it can escape back to its nest, if there is a trap, it will be much easier to conquer its nest and kill it."
Lu Shanhe suddenly couldn't keep up with his mind. He was addicted to formation practice all day long and didn't understand these war things very well. He thought what Li Pingbo said was very reasonable, but he didn't know how to respond, so he could only subconsciously ask: "What should I do?"
Li Pingbo said: "Brother Lu, you are proficient in formations and talismans. Is there any way to limit the demon snake? If it fails, it will inevitably return to its nest. If it can set a trap in the place where its nest must pass and trap it, it may be able to kill it easily."
Lu Shanhe pondered: "My demon-binding talisman can deal with it, and with the barrier array, it should be able to trap it in a suitable place. But the problem is that the demon-binding talisman needs to be used by me personally. Are you saying that you want me to go to the demon snake's nest?"
Li Pingbo frowned and said, "No, Brother Lu, you must go to the Light Gate with me, and add the Jindan who came to help. Only then can we cooperate with the three of us to kill the demon snake. Brother Lu, is it necessary for you to bind the demon talisman?"
Lushan River: "Not that, it can be used by monks in the foundation-building stage of the Demon-Binding Talisman, but if their cultivation is low, it will take a short time to control it. If it breaks free, it will be troublesome."
Li Pingbo said: "Brother Lu, don't worry, even if the demon snake can escape after our siege, it will inevitably be severely damaged. As long as the demon-binding talisman can control it for a period of time, even the foundation-building monk can kill it!
I have made up my mind. Brother Lu, you send disciples who understand the formation talismans to set up the formation. I send some cultivators from the late stage of foundation building to form a capable team, and sneak into the mountains and forests to attack the demon snake's nest together!"
Lushanhe was already confused by Li Pingbo and could only agree.
"But you know that among the students I recruit now, there are not many who truly understand formation talismans. They are all in the beginner stages, and I am afraid that you will not be able to complete your task as a shopkeeper." Lu Shanhe was embarrassed.
Li Pingbo smiled and said, "Isn't your newly accepted female apprentice a genius of formation? I'll just look at her."
Lu Shanhe suddenly widened his eyes: "No, absolutely not. How could I send her to such a dangerous thing?"
Li Pingbo sighed: "Brother Lu, it's not that I said you are not like you, as a master, yes, I know you prefer that female apprentice, but the flowers in the greenhouse don't grow big. If she wants to go further along the formation, she has to face these battle formations. The formation talismans are ultimately for war. The mages trained behind closed doors are far less powerful than those who have experienced the battle on the battlefield.
Moreover, there is no danger you think about when you go to the monster's nest, Brother Lu. We all know that there is only one demon king in a region, which means there is no second monster in the mountains and forests with strength comparable to the golden elixir. In addition, most monsters will be brought to the Light Gate by demon snakes. I sent all the cultivators in the late stage of foundation building and even the peak of foundation building. There is no danger you think about when you think about when you go to the monster's nest."
Lu Shanhe has been hesitating. After Li Pingbo's repeated persuasion, he finally agreed, but he did not realize that after this hesitation and persuasion, it had been a long time since time...
Li Pingbo selected a team led by Xiong Xian, the peak foundation-building monk. Except Xiong Xian, the remaining five people were all in the late stage of foundation-building, and their strength was very strong. Then Li Pingbo went to find Zhang Xu and asked Zhang Xu to join the team as well.
"Big shopkeeper, you also know that I am weak, so I'm afraid I won't be useful, right?" Zhang Xu said with a wry smile.
Li Pingbo glanced at Zhang Xu deeply: "You have built a foundation, and you have the top-grade spiritual weapon, the iron sword, and the iron sword weapon, the spiritual fire phoenix, is a powerful existence that can instantly kill the monsters in the Golden Pill stage, so you are the most powerful, and they all attack you."
Zhang Xu suddenly shouted aggrievedly: "You are the boss, you know. My leader's iron sword can only be used in the Golden Pill stage. I can't summon the sword spirit fire phoenix at all!"
Li Pingbo ignored him at all: "I have decided. Now it is wartime, and those who do not obey orders engage in military law!
By the way, I might as well tell you that the little girl from your Iron Sword Sect is also on the list.”
"What?" Zhang Xu was angry. Mama criticized. You sent her to such a dangerous place so young. You are so unrestrained!
However, Li Pingbo no longer paid attention to Zhang Xu and waved his hand. Two guards from the late stage of foundation building walked to Zhang Xu and stared at Zhang Xu with a sharp sword in hand, which was quite like Zhang Xu killing him on the spot if he dared to talk too much.
WCNMB! Zhang Xu scolded in his heart, but he didn't dare to say more.
He glanced at Zhang Xu from the corner of his eyes, and Li Pingbo sneered in his heart. He always suspected that Zhang Xu had not told the truth. Only the Golden Pill stage could summon the fire phoenix. Since the sword spirit fire phoenix can appear once, it can appear again!
Although the little head of the Iron Sword Sect is young, he is as slippery as a loach. Li Pingbo wants to see how he performs after being forced into a desperate situation.
As for Zhang Xu's attitude towards him in the future, Li Pingbo didn't care. With Li Pingbo's status, he could not threaten him with his small iron sword gate.
