Chapter Ninety-Six: The Captive
Ignoring Jiuzhen's unfair words, Chen Tianjing went out by himself.
"Aren't you afraid that the person surnamed Shi will trouble you?" Qiu Fengyi reminded beside her as she kept up
"It's okay if you don't come, I'll make him regret it when I come. Chen Tian stopped and turned his head to look at Qiu Fengyi: "It's you, you look too ostentatious, maybe next time there will be a man who has a crooked mind!"
Listening to these derogatory and exaggerated words, the corners of Qiu Fengyi's mouth raised slightly. Thinking back to the scene of Chen Tian's early emergence just now, I was inexplicably a little happy.
"Then I'm going to change my appearance?"
"Forget it, it's easy to arouse suspicion!"
......
Baizhan Street, the most prosperous street in Baizhan City.
It is wide and magnificent, with shops lining the streets and stalls in the gaps on the road
Today, it is full of people, gongs and drums
The warriors who come and go are like carp crossing the river, rubbing shoulders one after another.
Although this city of a hundred battles is a frontier city, due to its economic and strategic importance, it is not inferior to those county towns!
Chen Tian and the four of them strolled around casually.
Occasionally, if there is something he likes, Jiuzhen will buy it with the source stone, and he will be extremely generous.
This made Chen Tian sigh that this guy is really rich, and he also has some background. Chen Tian went shopping for a long time, but his waist was deflated, and he really didn't have the slightest purchasing power.
"Get out of the way, get out of the way...... The army of a hundred battles is doing business, and all the idle people and others are avoided! The general of the border guards escorted back from the front line and took prisoners."
A clear drink came from the distance, accompanied by the sound of horses' hooves stomping.
I saw a cavalryman from far and near, and he saw the crowd of people surging in the street, and there was no sign of stopping.
The crowd automatically dodged to the sides.
The cavalry rushed through.
"Alas, the soldiers of the Hundred Battles Army are too arrogant, right, using the street as a battlefield?" Qiu Fengyi complained in a low voice, but her body stood honestly to the side.
The comer was arrogant, but after all, it had nothing to do with him, shaking his head and sighing and hiding aside.
After a while, a group of wagons and horses came slowly, with a group of soldiers in front and seven prisoner carts behind them!
The prisoner cart is made of special material and is extremely tough.
All seven prisoners were seriously wounded, and the bones were chained to the pipa, and the wounds were charred black. The situation is miserable, and people can't bear to look at it directly. The Hundred Battles Army next to the prisoner car was extremely well armed.
There was a lot of talk in the crowd about the prisoners.
"It is said that the general of the border area won the first battle and captured seven middle and high-level generals of the Jiuhua Army!"
"There are several captains in there. Even at the level of a handsome general!"
Suddenly, Chen Tian's gaze met one of the seven prisoners, and the prisoner's blood-blurred eyes suddenly burst out with a little light, as if he had seen something incredible.
Chen Tian was shocked, without him, this prisoner he knew, it was really Xuzhou who had fought at the city lord's birthday banquet! It's just that he hasn't seen him for a few months, this Xuzhou has been promoted to the spirit induction realm, but he was still captured in the battle of the border river.
It can be seen that the tragedy of that battle!
He suddenly felt that it was a very unwise decision to go out today.
Quietly came to Qiu Fengyi's side, and without waiting for him to speak, Qiu Fengyi's phoenix eyes looked over
"I understand the situation, these people are the elite of my Jiuhua Army, and each of them has been cultivated by my father with great effort! If I am really impulsive, not only will I be imprisoned, but they will also die!" Qiu Fengyi clenched her teeth, resisting the impulse in her heart, and suppressed her voice extremely low.
Chen Tian breathed a sigh of relief, and this big beauty finally sobered up.
"Even Wang Tie was captured! That's ...... Major General Zhu Jiuying!" Black Eagle obviously knew a few people
Wang Tie Chen Tian has also heard of it, he is a person at the level of a commander, this is a position that can only be held by a person who cultivates in the middle stage of spiritual induction! And a major general needs to cultivate to reach the late stage of spiritual induction, but he didn't expect such a person to be captured in that battle.
Jiu Zhen glanced at Chen Tian: "It seems that the Jiuhua Army has suffered heavy losses this time, such a defeat has almost never been seen in the history of the Qiu family!"
However, no one had the heart to deal with him, and he was bored, and Jiuzhen was slightly embarrassed.
Wang Tie and Xuzhou both discovered Chen Tian's figure, because at Qiu Hao's birthday banquet, Chen Tian's performance was really good, and it was difficult for people to forget. However, the two of them just glanced at each other, and then looked away, like strangers!
After half a pillar of incense, the whole team moved away and headed towards the dungeon of Hundred Battles City.
"I want to go back to the Heavenly Sword Kingdom, I want to know the whereabouts of my father and sister!" Qiu Fengyi looked at Chen Tian pleadingly
Chen Tian nodded, in this kind of war period, there is always a danger in staying in a foreign country.
Turning around and walking a few steps in the direction of the city gate, suddenly Chen Tian turned his head and stared at Jiu Zhen
"We're going to follow when we go out of town?"
Jiu Zhen said with a smile: "The golden shopkeeper said before that the city gate is under martial law, and there should be no fake in the future, but even if I can get out of the city, then I have to follow the boss!"
Jiuzhen's cynical attitude, Chen Tian couldn't understand his purpose, but he didn't have anything to covet in himself. It's up to him.
At the gate of the Hundred Battles City
The soldiers defending the city when they entered the city were gone, and they were replaced by soldiers in the same attire as the previous Hundred Battle Army. And the man in charge seems to be deliberately exuding breath. In perception, it is very strong, only one line worse than the gold shopkeeper.
Sure enough, martial law has been imposed.
"Now, I can't go now. ”
Chen Tian groaned: "Go back to the inn first, wait for the opportunity!"
Seeing that several high-ranking members of the Jiuhua Army were captured, Chen Tian and the others didn't have the heart to go shopping. At this moment, the city gate is under martial law, and I will talk about it when I go home
When I walked through the lobby, the capture incident just now became everyone's after-dinner conversation again. Chen Tian also heard more exciting news one after another.
"Do you know that the Three Kingdoms have crossed the border river, and several major battles have broken out with the Jiuhua Army in the past two days, and because there is no main general in charge, the Jiuhua Army has been defeated again and again. It seems that the news that Qiu Hao was trapped in Lonely Goose City is mostly true!"
"Yes, the captives of the Three Kingdoms on the battlefield were gradually escorted back to the homeland of each country, and it is said that even Qiu Hao's right-hand man Huo Shi was captured by the Tianyue Kingdom. At present, there is only one military division left in the top echelons of the Jiuhua Army to preside over the overall situation. ”
"However, this military division is also very good, under the joint efforts of Tianyue and Tianqing, he has been defending Baishan City without defeat. Stunning!"
"This Qiu Hao is trapped, his right-hand man has also lost one of them, and the rest of the military division himself is difficult to support after all, in my opinion, the Jiuhua Army is going to be finished this time, the Three Kingdoms have endured for 30 years, and this comeback must have the intention of being ashamed. ”
......
When Qiu Fengyi heard the news, her walking body softened, and she almost fell to the ground, but fortunately, Chen Tian saw the opportunity quickly and helped her up.
Syllable......
After Chen Tian and Qiu Fengyi entered the room, they closed the door directly, and the black eagle also wanted to follow in, but he almost had a close contact with the wooden door.
Seeing this, Jiuzhen cracked the corners of his mouth and smiled.
"Brother Jiuzhen, I don't know if I can let ...... in the next place" Black Eagle saw that although Jiuzhen was a little unreliable, his personality was quite generous, so he made up his mind
"No!" Jiuzhen categorically blocked what Black Eagle was about to say, and slammed the door shut
"Everyone, I don't even have a place to live with the money I paid myself. ”
Complaining, Black Hawk came to the lobby alone to drink stuffy wine.
Perhaps stimulated, Qiu Fengyi tossed and turned, and with her mood at the moment, she couldn't sleep at all. Turning his head to look at Chen Tian, he couldn't help but grit his teeth, at this time, he still had the heart to cultivate!
Chen Tian had already entered the state of cultivation, although he didn't have much experience, but he still understood the truth. He is not like Qiu Fengyi who is disturbed by the safety of his relatives, and now he is in a dangerous situation, only by improving his strength can he ensure the safety of himself and his friends!
Following
When I opened my eyes, a night's cultivation had only opened up a spiritual vein. The speed made Chen Tian slightly dissatisfied. However, the later the Psychic Realm became, the more the spiritual veins became closed and tenacious, and the spiritual power and energy required increased exponentially! Chen Tian didn't know that his speed was already amazing!
I saw Qiu Fengyi fall asleep at some point. Didn't bother, went out softly
When I came to the lobby, I saw Black Eagle rubbing his head, as if he had just sobered up. Walk with your feet up
Black Eagle raised his eyebrows: "Tianshao, look at your radiant spirits, you must have been a big show last night, right?" It seems that Black Eagle can imagine that kind of picture, after all, Qiu Fengyi is such a stunning person, lonely men and widows are in the same room, how can something not happen!
"Do you want to take care of it, next time you have such a dirty idea, I will castrate you!" Chen Tian stiffened his neck, then picked up the empty wine jar on the table and shook it, and ordered: "Buy some more wine!"
The two drank again, and when the wine passed three rounds, Jiuzhen also came.
"Don't call me when you drink, you two are too boring" Jiuzhen sat down unceremoniously and poured himself a bowl and drank it all
"It's okay to drink, you have to pay for wine!" Chen Tian is now a baht for Jiuzhen, who will make him rich
"Hehe, don't be so stingy, it's a big deal to send you another message!" Jiu Zhen took a sip, wiped his mouth, and said
"Three!"
"Hey, you're a quick learner, and you're doing business with me," Jiu Zhen's eyes widened.
Chen Tian's slightly drunken eyes looked at Jiuzhen, without the slightest impurity in his eyes, revealing firmness.
"Okay, deal" Jiuzhen sat down on the stool, drank another bowl of wine, and then said: "The first one, there are spies in Lonely Goose City, and the armament is burned, and the surplus food in the city can only last for three days!"
"Second, the defeat of the Jiuhua Army may be related to the royal family, it is said that a few months ago, the Heavenly Sword Royal Family just sent a prince to assist in the management of the Jiuhua Army, and when the war broke out, this prince did not send reinforcements. ”
"Third, yesterday, the Heavenly Sword Royal Family has already sent troops to reinforce the southwest border. There are still three days to reach Jiuhua City!"
Jiuzhen finished the three messages in one breath, drank a bowl of wine and moistened his throat.
Every piece of news hit Chen Tian and Black Eagle like a hammer in the hearts of Chen Tian and Black Eagle.
Chen Tian seemed to realize that something was wrong, frowned, and suddenly asked
"You have already entered the city yesterday, Heavenly Sword City is thousands of miles away, how could you know such news about the increase of troops in the royal family so quickly?"
