Chapter 455: Thousand-faced array
After a few clicks, I saw that the soldiers from the imperial court had already stepped into the river on horseback.
While Xie Ting was still standing there fiddling with something, the generals at Qingfei Pass became increasingly anxious.
Step by step, time gradually passed. Seeing the imperial soldiers getting closer and closer to Xie Ting,
Finally, just when the generals couldn't help it anymore and were about to suggest Xie Yanhui to send people forward to rescue people, the scene on the scene suddenly changed.
Everyone froze on the spot for a second, staring blankly ahead.
I saw that when the imperial general rode to the middle of the river, the river suddenly seemed to be controlled by someone. The river water rose up and twisted into a stream of water ropes, trapping the imperial general and his horse in it.
It was obviously water, but the water was like a cage, blocking the general, preventing him from advancing or retreating.
Everyone looked at the scene in front of them in stunned silence,
They really can't believe that there are still people in this world who can control water flow.
Everyone present and Cheng Qing were also shocked.
Cheng Qing even raised his hand to rub his eyes and pinched himself hard to make sure that he was not dazzled or dreaming.
And the facts proved that he was not wrong about his vision and dream,
The general under him was indeed trapped by the current, and the pretty boy he looked down on just now did have the ability to control water.
"return!"
Seeing that something is wrong,
Cheng Qing quickly raised his voice and spoke,
However, before he could finish his words, the horse trapped in the water column suddenly let out an extremely tragic neigh.
Without waiting for everyone to react,
The horse fell into the river with a thud. At the same time, the general also fell to the side and became silent.
The water column slowly recedes, and the river returns to its natural state again.
Everyone looked at the motionless person and horse among them. Whether it was Qing Fei Guan Fang or the imperial court, they were all stunned on the spot and made no sound.
Staring at the horse's corpse in astonishment,
for a long time,
Cheng Qing was just about to come to his senses,
His eyes narrowed, and there was a surge of anger on his face. Then he looked angrily at Xie Ting, who had a surprised look on the other side of the river, and said in a cold voice,
"Damn it, what kind of magic did you use?"
Hearing this, Xie Ting suddenly came back from the joy of trying successfully. He raised his eyes and looked at Cheng Qing with a slightly happy expression.
"This is not sorcery, this is just a formation!"
The words fell,
Xie Ting then spoke again,
"How's it going? Now that General Cheng Qing has seen my ability, do you want to give it a try? I'll be with you at any time!"
Xie Ting finished speaking,
Cheng Qing was irritated by his words. He clamped his long legs on the horse's belly and stepped forward.
However, as soon as he moved, a person behind him quickly stepped forward to stop him, and then with a serious look on his face,
"General, that boy has some evil ways. The situation is unknown now, so you must not take risks easily. We should retreat first and report the news to His Highness the Crown Prince later before making any plans!"
The man finished speaking,
Cheng Qing held the reins tightly with his big hands,
Seeing his unwillingness,
The man was obviously a little anxious, and he quickly called out again,
"General!"
Hearing this, Cheng Qing was silent for a long time, and finally his face darkened.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw!"
After saying that, Cheng Qing pulled the reins, turned the horse's head and ran towards the rear.
The decisive speed was as if he was afraid that if he delayed for one more second, he would not be able to help but step forward and tear Xie Ting into pieces.
Seeing that he had given the order to retreat, the man who had persuaded Cheng Qing just now breathed a sigh of relief and ordered people to collect the body of the general just now. Then he quickly hit his horse and chased Cheng Qing away.
Seeing the enemy troops retreat suddenly,
The soldiers at Qingfei Pass are still a little bit unable to recover.
And until the imperial soldiers left one after another,
Xie Ting suppressed his inner excitement and walked quickly to Xie Yanhui's horse.
He raised his eyes and said excitedly,
"Reporting to the Fourth Young Master, Xie Ting has lived up to his command and has repulsed the enemy forces of the imperial court!"
Xie Ting finished speaking,
Xie Yanhui raised his lips, glanced at Xie Ting with a smile, and then nodded appreciatively to Xie Ting, saying, "Not bad, well done. It's not convenient to talk here. Go back first, and we'll talk about it later!"
Xie Yanhui finished speaking,
Xie Ting nodded immediately, then got on his horse,
After repelling the enemy troops, the group marched toward Qingfei Pass!
And here,
Cheng Qing galloped all the way, leaving behind all the soldiers and horses, and returned to the camp first.
As soon as he arrived at the camp, he dismounted and went straight to the Dongfang Ling camp.
The curtain was suddenly opened from the outside,
Dongfang Ling looked up expressionlessly and saw Cheng Qing walking in with an angry look on his face.
He calmly withdrew his gaze,
Dongfang Ling flipped through the book in his hand and spoke calmly,
"Suffered a loss?"
Hearing this, a mouthful of old blood was held in his chest. Cheng Qing's face turned a little livid.
"Your Highness, I don't know that there is a monster coming over Qingfei Pass. He can control the river water. One of my lieutenants was trapped in the water prison with his men and horses. He died soon after. The general is afraid that if he attacks rashly, he will be killed.
It caused panic in our army, so we ordered to withdraw!"
After Cheng Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Ling paused while holding the book.
"Water control?"
Seeing Dongfang Ling's interest, Cheng Qing nodded quickly and then said,
"Yes, it's the prefect of Qingfeiguan, called Xie or something. Oh, Xie Ting. He wants to stop our fifty thousand troops. The general thought it was ridiculous, so he sent one of my lieutenants to fight. But who
You know, as soon as the man walked to the middle of the river, several water columns suddenly rose from the river surface. Those water columns were entangled together to form something like a water prison. That thing can trap people inside and kill them in a moment!"
After Cheng Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Ling was silent for a moment, put down the book in his hand, and then raised his eyes to look at Cheng Qing,
"It is impossible for anyone in this world to control the river water. So, please tell me the situation in detail!"
After Dongfang Ling finished speaking, Cheng Qing nodded repeatedly, and then carefully explained the scene to Dongfang Ling.
After Cheng Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Ling was silent for a long time without speaking.
Cheng Qing looked at Dongfang Ling with a sad and angry expression.
"Your Highness, do you think this is a witchcraft? Unfortunately, that guy still wanted to lie to me, saying that this was a formation. Damn it, this is a bear formation!"
After Cheng Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Ling suddenly spoke,
"It should be the formation!"
"What?" With a low exclamation, Cheng Qing looked at Dongfang Ling.
"Your Highness, this is impossible. After all, I have been learning formations since I was a child. I know most of the formations, but this... you say it is a formation, I have never seen it before!"
After Cheng Qing finished speaking, Dongfang Ling glanced at him lightly, and then said softly,
"He is indeed using a formation, but it should be the long-lost Thousand-faced Formation. I have only seen this formation in a single copy, so it's normal that you don't recognize it!"
After Dongfang Ling finished speaking, Cheng Qing raised his thick eyebrows, and then said in confusion,
Chapter completed!
