Chapter 176: The City is Like a Peerless Domain
The more I thought about it, the more I felt that something was wrong, and I couldn't help but speak: "Qin Siyue, tell me the truth, did you come back before you met Zhuge Liang, and are there any people from the two major sects here?"
Qin Siyue asked rhetorically, "What are you suspecting?"
"It's nothing, I'm just asking. "I do suspect a lot of things, but it's not yet time for me to ask Qin Siyue in person. Some things, once spoken, can have unwanted consequences.
Two demon servants carried the iron box in front and slowly led the way, Ye Xun and I, An Ran guarded near the iron box in a zigzag shape, Ye Xun suddenly took two quick steps, and quietly stuffed his golden mask into Si Ruo's hand, I immediately understood what he meant.
I deliberately retreated a few steps, gestured to Si Ruo, and motioned for her to put on a golden mask, and I quickly transmitted my own thoughts: "Si Ruo, Si Ruo, can you hear me?"
"I hear you. Although Si Ruo was silent on the surface, there was surprise in his thoughts.
I quickly asked, "Were you intercepted by the torture temple before you came in, and how did you get here?"
Si Ruo replied, "Since we separated, the Torture Hall has been chasing us until Qin Siyue introduced them to the Black Bamboo Ditch and began to slowly fight back. I found ......"
Si Ruo hesitated slightly: "I found that Qin Siyue doesn't seem to know about the situation in Heizhugou either, and she has to think about many places, and even look for iconic things before she can move forward." β
I quickly asked, "Is there a mechanism in Heizhugou?"
"Yes, and very much. Si Ruo quickly replied, "However, the mechanisms in the Black Bamboo Ditch are very simple, most of them can only exert their power with the help of terrain, and a domineering mechanism like the Fire Phoenix has never appeared. β
I asked again, "What about that two-headed monster, how many have you seen?"
"What two-headed monster?' Si Ruo replied, "After we entered the range of the Organ City, a demon servant did appear to greet Qin Siyue. When I saw you, I was afraid that you would act rashly, so I gestured to you. β
I frowned slightly, and asked again, "The disciples of the torture hall who chased and killed you were all poisoned, are you okay?"
Si Ruo said: "We encountered at least twelve poisonous miasma and poisonous pools on the way in, Qin Siyue knows how to avoid poison, we are fine." β
I always felt that the poison that made the tongues of the disciples of the torture hall bloom was not as simple as we saw, but Si Ruo didn't have any useful information here. When I was silent, Si Ruo suddenly said, "By the way, that old man surnamed Yao seems to have discovered something, and Qin Siyue poisoned him." β
When I turned my eyes to look at Old Man Yao, he was almost out of breath.
When Old Man Yao asked me for help, if it was someone else, even if I couldn't save someone, I would give the other party a ride, at least I wouldn't watch him die as much as he lived. However, Old Man Yao's first impression on me was unusually bad, I simply didn't pay attention to the other party, he is now being dragged half-dead to the ground, maybe he will choke his breath at some point.
When I was thinking about how I should go up and talk to Old Man Yao, An Ran, who was walking on the side, suddenly said, "Brother Huan, look ahead." β
When I looked in the direction of An Ran's finger, I saw a white mist rising from the city in the distance. The sudden fog first rolled forward a few meters at a height of a foot above the ground, and then, as if blocked by an invisible wall, it accumulated near a wall and climbed into the air. It didn't take long for everything in front of us to be blocked in the thick fog, but the scenery on both sides of the city wall was still the same, and I could even see the disciples of the torture hall gathered under the city fighting to the death with a group of demon servants, except for the section of the city wall shrouded in fog that became invisible.
Ye Xun and I grabbed a few steps at the same time, but a figure faintly appeared behind the mist. Not only was the other party's body unusually tall, but there seemed to be three human heads growing side by side on his shoulders.
The opponent's six blood-glittering eyes suddenly burst open behind the mist, and there seemed to be six red lights lit up behind the mist. At the same time that the blood shadows with halos turned towards me and Ye Xun respectively, the demon servants behind us actually fell to their knees on the ground, trembling all over their bodies and unable to raise their heads.
Between Ye Xun and I looking at each other, we both drew our weapons and retreated to the iron box: "There are three demon servants in front." β
"Three-headed demon servant?" Qin Siyue said in a low voice, "Could it be that they succeeded? You go forward, don't be afraid, as long as it's a demon servant, it won't hurt you." β
Qin Siyue suddenly let out two shouts from his mouth as he spoke, and the three-headed demon servant standing in the mist retreated into the distance step by step, and soon disappeared from our sight. However, the murderous aura coming from the fog did not decrease but increased, and I even felt that there was more than one three-headed demon servant hiding in the fog and waiting for an opportunity.
This section of the city wall can really be unimpeded as Qin Siyue said?
Ye Xun and I were still hesitating, but there was a burst of gunfire under the city wall, and a few bullets swept past the two of us, and the bricks and stones at the head of the city were also scattered under the rain of bullets.
I turned my head to look at the city, only to find that the battle situation under the city had been reversed, and a large number of disciples of the torture hall dressed in black and wearing red belts on their heads were surging all over the mountains, and in groups of five, they cooperated with each other to join the battle group.
Although the cultivation of these disciples with red belts is not necessarily much higher than the original ones, but they cooperate with each other very closely, and every move and style is a combination of attack and defense, although it is not possible to kill and injure demon servants in a large area for a while, but it is only a matter of time for them to win.
On the hillside in the distance, there were at least a hundred white-clothed people standing indifferently with their hands behind their backs, they seemed to be watching the battle, and they seemed to be indifferent to the life and death of the disciples of the torture hall, and the only thing they cared about was the fog that shrouded the city.
An Ran exclaimed after just one glance: "Brother Huan, hurry up, the elite red disciples of the Torture Hall have come over, as well as the white-clothed elder group, these are all masters at the bottom of the torture hall, and it will be too late if we don't leave." β
"Let's go!" I also knew that it was now to the point where we couldn't get in, but the two demon servants kneeling on the ground refused to get up, and no one lifted the iron box, so we couldn't move an inch.
"Get up!" I kicked the demon servant twice in a row and didn't see any movement from the other party, before I roared angrily, "Qin Siyue, what the hell are you doing?"
Qin Siyue said: "There is a clear hierarchy between demon servants, they don't dare to leave, and I have no choice." Then you can get someone to replace the old man, and you can push the box forward. β
"Fart!" I was so angry that I yelled - we already have three people trapped on the iron box, and one more person is not equivalent to helping Qin Siyue increase his chips?
Qin Siyue said disapprerovingly: "If you don't want to, I can't help it." Whether you go or stay, you choose for yourself!"
As soon as I was about to open my mouth, An Ran took a few steps forward and cut Old Man Yao's throat with a knife. The moment the other party breathed, the lock on his wrist was unfastened by itself.
I suddenly exclaimed, "Enron, what are you doing?"
"There's no time, we're not opponents of the Elder Group, and if we don't leave, it's really too late. An Ran dragged the corpse aside, grabbed the handcuffs and put them on his wrists: "Brother Huan, don't hesitate, go quickly." β
Before An Ran could speak, I heard a burst of human voices coming from the direction of the gap in the city wall. A large number of disciples of the Torture Hall had already rushed to the bottom of the city, and were climbing along the gap to the city wall.
At the same time, Enron also "clicked" and locked the handcuffs. A gap opened at the four corners of the box at the same time, and the wheels with the big bowl mouth poked into the ground from the gap, Qin Siyue said coldly: "Grab the handle on the top of the box and push the box and walk quickly." You two hold back the enemy. β
The two demon servants turned around at the same time and slaughtered in the direction of the gap in the city wall.
Si Ruo and the others had no choice but to push the iron box and gallop away in the direction of the city wall.
I hesitated for a moment before following them into the fog and taking a few steps to get to the front of the group. I hadn't gone far before I heard the sound of traps turning on both sides of the wall, and by the time I turned my head, a series of machines had risen to the ground from beneath the wall.
The person who designed the ram should have thought that someone would climb the city wall at the gap, and from the moment the ram appeared, it stood on the city in the order of high and low, the first mechanism was close to the ground of the city wall, and the arrow was fired horizontally, but the second machine was about two meters higher than it, and the arrow pointed diagonally downward into the distance.
After seeing three crossbows in a row, I was wondering if the fourth crossbow would rise to a height of six meters, but I didn't expect the base of the fourth repeater to turn in one direction, pushing the mechanism out of the city wall, hanging in the air and aiming sideways ahead.
In just a few moments, a crossbow array like a peacock opening a screen was lined up on the city wall.
I couldn't see the front of the wall, but I could guess that what the Torture Hall Elders were seeing was still a foggy sceneβthe fog on the wall was just to disguise the killing of the projectile.
I only paused for a moment before I heard Qin Siyue shout, "Don't stop, keep walking." β
As they pushed the iron box through the gap between the repeater and the city wall, someone outside the fog shouted, "Hand * thunder open the way." β
Oops! I was shocked. The Temple of Torture did not take the preservation of the ruins as the first priority like ordinary detectives, but chose to use firepower to smooth the way and preserve its strength.
The moment I turned around, countless grenades burst through the fog, and explosions rang out into the sky. The first to bear the brunt of the projectile suddenly collapsed on the city wall, and the powerful crossbow that had not had time to fire broke away from the bowstring in the explosion and burst out in all directions.
"Get downβ" I flew and threw Si Ruo to the ground.
