After Su Yetong and Xuan Ming left Wuliu Mountain, they rushed directly to the border between Yun and Lei, a place called Sha Yu Town, where Xuan Ming led troops to station. Pen fun and pavilion www.biquge.info

Shalu Town is located on a desert between the border of the Cloud Country and the Thunder Country, and the living environment is relatively difficult, but it is also the best place to effectively resist the invasion of the Thunder Country, which is why Xuan Ming has stayed there for many years.

The reason why I chose to go to Shalu Town is because there are almost no ordinary people in that town.

It was too dangerous to carry so many Xuan Crystals on his body that made the cultivators crazy, and he had to stay away from ordinary people to keep it safe.

But when they approached the sky above Shalu Town, Xuan Ming noticed a trace of strangeness.

Before he returned to Beijing to take up his post, he had obviously deployed the troops in Shayu Town, but at this time, he did not see the slightest troop deployment around Shayu Town.

Outside the city gate, it was empty, and it was very bleak to look at from the sky.

The two of them descended slowly outside the city gate, and found that the gate was tightly closed, and the gap between the two large iron gates was full of sand and dust, and it seemed that it had not been opened and closed for a long time.

"What's going on?"

Xuan Ming also frowned and stared at the gate, he still remembered that no one in the palace had mentioned anything related to Sha Yu Town.

It seems that the door has been closed for a long time, and there must be something strange.

Xuan Ming believes that he can't open the door rashly and explore the reality in the town first.

The two of them quietly jumped over the city gate and entered the city.

The buildings in the city were no different from when Xuan Ming left, but strangely, there was not a single soldier's shadow on the street.

The whole town of Shayu is like an empty city, with no one alive or dead.

It's so weird!

The two walked slowly along the street, constantly observing their surroundings carefully.

However, the houses on both sides of the street are the same as the city gates, and the surface is covered with a thick layer of dust, as if it has not been a sign of human activity for a long time.

I walked to a blacksmith stall on the side of the street and saw a lot of small weapons placed on the stall, and a scimitar that had not yet been fully formed was placed on the hammering pier next to it.

Along the way, I saw that many of the doors of the houses were open, and the furnishings inside were unobstructed, all of which were bleak.

What's going on in this town?

Why is there no one?

It stands to reason that if there is a sudden attack from the Thunder Country, there will not even be a person who escapes back to Kyoto alive to report it.

After all, the people of this entire town are well-trained soldiers and generals on weekdays, and it is impossible to wipe them all out.

In wartime, it is a general, and in peacetime it is a resident.

But at the moment there was no sign of a major invasion of the city, and if it were not for the dust and the absence of people, it would have been a very ordinary scene of daily life.

"My dear, this is so strange, if you want to say that it is all transferred, you will not even bring the silver!"

Su Yelu took out a handful of broken silver from a large clay pot placed on a stall selling medicine, and looked at Xuan Mingdao.

"It seems that they were in a hurry, or that something happened that they didn't have time to react. Xuan Ming replied in a deep voice.

Then he took the hand of the sleepy night and walked quickly to the tallest building in the town not far away, "Let's go, go to the General's Mansion and have a look." ”

They walked to the door of the General's Mansion and found that the General's Mansion was also open.

I walked in quickly and saw that it was still empty.

Xuan Ming led her directly through the two doorways, turned into a well in a courtyard, and looked cautiously into the well.

Seeing this, she knew that there must be a secret passage in this well, because she put her hand above the mouth of the well, and found a faint flow of air from the bottom to the top.

Sure enough, Xuan Ming jumped down with her in his arms, and stopped when he descended to the bottom of the well near the surface of the water, and his big hand pressed somewhere, "click" A few sounds, a half-person-high hole suddenly appeared.

They quickly half-dodged in, and as soon as they entered, the hole closed quickly.

The cave is a tunnel, and there is a permanent lamp at every distance on both sides of the tunnel, and there is a faint light in the tunnel at this moment, which is not too dark.

They had probably walked for half a column of incense when a spacious basement appeared in front of them.

The two of them stood upright, glanced at the basement, and were momentarily stunned.

The basement, about the size of half a football field, was densely packed with soldiers.

Some of the soldiers looked like dried corpses, and some were still squirming slightly, and it seemed that they were about to die.

A soldier in armor who was sitting against the wall saw Xuan Ming and Su Yelu appear out of thin air, and his face showed surprise.

Xuan Ming found him, hurriedly jumped to the soldier's side, and squatted down to check.

"General Yi, what the hell is going on? Did someone from the Lei Kingdom do it?"

Xuan Ming recognized that the dying and skinny man in front of him was General Yi Huiyi, the most powerful general in the past, and couldn't help but help him sit up, and asked urgently.

General Yi held Xuan Ming's hand with difficulty, his face was like ashes, and he said angrily: "Wang, Wangye...... The last general prays to God...... Let's see the prince before we die...... Sure enough, really ...... Ahem......"

He didn't say a word, but he coughed sharply, and instantly lost his breath.

"Let him drink some water first, it's been too long since he has eaten and drunk water, feed too much at a time, feed slowly little by little. Su Yelu could see that this person was already on the verge of the most extreme state of his body, and hurriedly took out the water bladder from the space bag and handed it to Xuan Ming.

Xuan Ming fed the water to General Yi little by little, and then secretly passed on some internal force to him, which made him look better.

General Yi squirmed his throat and said slowly: "Lord Wang, since you returned to Beijing, the last general has been governing Shayu Town according to your deployment, and the days after that would have been peaceful, but suddenly it was more than ten days ago......

On that day, the town of Shayu was still the same as usual, except for the soldiers guarding the border, the rest of the soldiers bought and sold knick-knacks on the streets, or stayed in the house to rest.

But in the blink of an eye, a sandstorm suddenly swept towards the town of Shalu at great speed, and before that, the soldiers on duty at the lookout at the top of the gate tower did not notice the slightest sign.

At that moment, the soldiers who were closer to the sandstorm were swept up into the sky, and they didn't know where they were swept up.

The soldiers who discovered that the situation was not good in time quickly gathered at the general's palace, but many were swept away by the sandstorm that followed.

This sandstorm came quickly and suddenly, Yi Hui didn't have time to react, seeing that more and more people were attacked by the sandstorm, he instinctively led the soldiers gathered to the general's mansion to hide in the tunnels that had been dug in advance, and he couldn't send people to Kyoto for help.

After that, every once in a while, Yi Hui sent a soldier out to check if the sandstorm had passed, but the soldiers sent out were all gone and never returned.
