But after a while, he came to his senses and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I wonder what crime Zhou has committed? Fellow Taoist, please clarify."

"Hmph! You are the guard of Huluguan, but you are greedy for pleasure and neglect your duties. Until now, you still don't know that a Nanxuan army came from the north of Heishan Territory. In just half a month, you defeated Tayun.

Spirit Snake, the three passes of Yunya are now very powerful and are coming to your Hulu Pass!"

"There is such a thing!"

Zhou Tong was so shocked that his knees softened and he almost fell to the ground.

It's not surprising that he was so cowardly. It was just because the old man's cultivation level was too high and his aura was fierce. He subconsciously thought that the old man was a supervisor sent by Dan Yangsheng, and he was frightened in his heart, so he lost his grace.

However, after all, Zhou Tong is also a great monk in the Tribulation Realm. He has experienced the baptism of natural and man-made disasters, and his temperament is extraordinary. He quickly calmed down and asked tentatively: "Fellow Taoist, although you are here under orders, you are not here."

You have to show your token before you can enter the city. It seems to be against the rules to break in like this."

"Token?"

The old man laughed and said with a smile: "I have lost that kind of thing on the road a long time ago."

"What? You lost the token!" Zhou Tong's face changed slightly, with a hint of suspicion in his eyes.

Danyang Sheng is extremely strict in governing the army. If you make any mistakes while working under him, you will be severely punished. Losing your identity token is a serious crime. No one dares to be careless, but the old man in front of him has an indifferent expression.

Don't let Zhou Tong doubt his true identity.

"That's a long way to go, it's just a small token. If you lose it, you'll lose it. At worst, I'll just compensate you." The old man said with a smile.

"pay?"

Zhou Tong thought he heard wrongly, and was about to ask him how to compensate him, but he saw the old man smilingly stretched out his right hand, dug into his ear, and unexpectedly dug out a black pill.

"Here, I'll compensate you for this. You're in luck!"

After saying that, he handed the black meatball to Zhou Tong.

Zhou Tong looked horrified and shook his head desperately, but the opponent blocked his magic power. He grabbed his chin with his hand, forced it open, and stuffed the black pill into his mouth.

Gulu!

Zhou Tong couldn't help but swallowed the black pill into his belly. He felt a wave of medicinal power dissolving, and the disgusting smell rushed straight to his forehead, making him want to vomit.

"Well, what did you give me to eat?"

"This is my panacea! Don't you feel that your energy and blood are full and your skills are greatly improved?"

"Huh?"

Zhou Tong felt it carefully. Although he felt nauseated at first, the medicinal power soon spread into his limbs and bones, making his blood and energy stronger and his magic power purer.

This time, Zhou Tong was even more confused.

"What exactly do you want to do?"

"What to do? Of course I'm here to help you defend the city! Without me, your Huluguan is like a chicken or a dog. It will be destroyed by Nan Xuan in one blow, and all of you will be turned into ashes by then!"

"You and I are not relatives, so why should you help me? Also, who are you?"

"You asked too many questions!" The old man suddenly stopped smiling, with a cold murderous intent in his eyes, "Do what you should do, sometimes it's not good to know too much."

After Zhou Tong heard this, a chill suddenly arose in his heart.

The strength of the man in front of him was unfathomable, but his smiling appearance gave him the illusion that he would not kill anyone.

But just now, the murderous intention displayed by this person was terrifying!

"Okay, okay" Zhou Tong nodded obediently.

He didn't want to die in the line of duty. The dispute between the North and the South had nothing to do with him.

The reason why he joined Beiming was because he could plunder the resources of other sects and cities. Moreover, Beiming was so powerful before that there were many people like Zhou Tong who wanted to fish in troubled waters.

Seeing Zhou Tong nodding hurriedly without any intention of resisting, the old man also laughed.

"Very good, you are a talented person. My surname is Hu. From now on, you can call me Mr. Hu."

"Understood!" Zhou Tong looked respectful, thought for a while and then said: "Nanxuan's army is attacking, I wonder what Hu Gong has to do?"

"No need to panic."

Hu Gong knocked the crutch in his hand on the top of the city and said with a smile: "Although there are many masters in Nanxuan, in my opinion, they are just chickens and dogs. I will just stand at the mouth of your gourd for a while, and let him have thousands of troops."

Even with ten thousand horses, there is no way I can get through!"

Zhou Tong said happily: "Hu Gong has great magical powers. With you in charge of Huluguan, Nanxuan's army will never come back!"

"No!"

Hu Gong patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "I can't do it myself. I can only teach you the formations and weapons. The important task of defending the city must be done by General Zhou himself."
