Chapter 166: The Beast Tide Coming Ahead of Time
First love, beautiful and nostalgic.
Men are always hesitant to put the most beautiful words on them to pay tribute to their lost youth.
The dead cannot be defeated, and neither is first love. For men, what you can't get is always the best!
On the one hand, Xu Chen does not exclude, and even faintly looks forward to something happening with the girl in front of him, hugging left and right is the reverie in every man's heart, not to mention the experience of life and death, which has already bred the hazy feelings between the two of them deeper and stronger.
It's just that...... The regret of the past seems to have become a lingering obsession in my heart......
"Maybe one more time, the ending will be different?"
"People are different, what can be the end?"
"Cherish the people in front of you!"
"Maybe the clean past, do it again, and you should fulfill your dream......"
I didn't dare to think about it, and naturally I didn't dare to stay. Xu Chen still walked out and closed the door with his hand......
Leaning against the door, listening to the sobbing sound coming from inside the house, Xu Chen's hand reached for the door, but stopped. After sighing, he hugged the pots and bowls and went busily......
"Alas...... After making such a fuss, where are you going to sleep today?"
Yesterday, the two naturally shared a room, of course it was impossible to share the same bed! Xu Chen found two desks, put them together, made a bed quilt, and spent the night.
But now something like this has happened, no matter how thick-skinned Xu Chen is, he doesn't dare to go in as if nothing happened.
Fortunately, this annoyance did not last long.
In the Biancheng City Lord's Mansion, in the highest lookout, the hanging giant bell was rung again, and the rapid bell instantly spread throughout the city!
In Yun Ye's courtyard, Yun Ye, who was having dinner with his brothers, was suddenly shocked: "Why did the 'Shocking Dragon' sound?"
Chen Dong on the side was also stunned: "This ...... Could it be that the beast tide is coming?"
"No, it should be more than half a month!" the other wondered.
"That'...... Could it be an invasion by a foreign enemy?" said a trembling voice to a man beside him.
"It's even more unlikely! It's been more than five hundred years since the last great war, and I haven't heard of any new spirit stone mines being discovered!" the man said again.
"Yun Ye, sixty-four rings, it's a beast tide!" Chen Dong counted it carefully and said loudly.
"This ...... How did this year come so quickly?" said the confused one just now.
"Order everyone, assemble!" Of course, Yun Ye didn't know about this kind of thing, but as soon as the "Shocking Dragon" sounded, the city guards should be dispatched!
"Yes!"
At this moment, the wrestlers on the dock exuded a fierce momentum.
"Xiao Chenzi, assemble!"
Xu Chen was looking up following the bell, his face full of confusion, but several workers in the same hospital ran over and shouted.
"Gather?" Xu Chen asked blankly, "It's so late, where is the gathering going?"
"The beast tide is coming! of course, we will gather to go to the city wall to help defend it!" replied the workers.
"What, the beast tide is coming?" Xu Chen had learned about the beast tide, and he was no stranger to it, but he didn't think that he would encounter it.
"No wonder...... No wonder he left suddenly, it turned out that something really happened!" Xu Chen thought in his heart. Suddenly, he remembered something again, so he asked, "Isn't the city guard here to help defend the matter?"
"We are the city guards!" the man smiled: "The city guards are for life, even if we have retired, but Biancheng is in trouble, how can we sit idly by?"
Xu Chen was relieved when he heard this, since Yun Ye needed to be in charge of that wharf himself, how could the people working there be ordinary people?
"But ......" Before Xu Chen finished speaking, the man suddenly said: "Oh! By the way, Xiaochen, you are not from the city guards, what ...... this?"
"Let's go to the front yard first, and let Yun Ye arrange it!"
"It's okay!" Xu Chen nodded.
While talking, several people came to the front yard together. The front yard was already crowded, panicked, and the women of each family were helping their men put on their armor.
Xu Chen didn't even find a trace of sadness on their faces, and some of them smiled calmly, as if the men just went to work on the dock as usual and would come back in the evening.
"Xiao Chen is here!" Yun Ye, who was standing on the steps, looked over.
"Yun Ye!" Xu Chen arched his hand.
Yun Ye bowed slightly, and then said: "You are not from my city guards, you don't have to participate in this city defense!"
I couldn't tell the truth of what he said, not to mention that Xu Chen also had his own considerations, so he replied: "How can there be eggs under the nest?
"Haha!" Yun Ye laughed and said, "Don't worry, it's just a beast tide, it happens every year, it's not a danger of overturning!
Xu Chen was slandered in his heart, but nodded with a light smile on his face.
"Master Yun, everyone is here!" Chen Dong reported after counting the number of people.
"Let's go!" Yun Ye bowed his head and said flatly.
And when he had said that, they were about to depart......
"Wait!" a voice sounded behind him.
Yang Ziyun walked over and said to Yun Ye, "I'll go too!"
Xu Chen said angrily: "Go back, what are you doing as a woman!"
"Now you know that you care about me, where did you die just now?" Yang Ziyun was secretly annoyed in her heart, but said coldly on her face: "It seems that my kung fu is better than yours!"
"You!" Xu Chen was furious.
"Yun Ye, don't you mind if there is one more person?" Yang Ziyun directly ignored Xu Chen and asked at Yun Ye.
Yun Ye was old and spicy, he had already seen the contradiction between the young couple, so he ignored it and said with a smile: "Of course! It's not a foreign invasion, anyone who wants to help, we welcome it." ”
When the beast tide is coming, there is no problem of zài spies at all, as long as they are willing to help, whether it is an ordinary person or a cultivator, the Biancheng City Guards will be extremely happy.
"Okay, I'll go with you!" Yang Ziyun said.
Yun Ye looked at Xu Chen, who was pale, and nodded with a smile: "Yes!"
The team moved again, and I usually didn't think that at this moment, these hundred or so men actually exuded a murderous aura.
Going out on the street, the original bustling crowd on the street actually dispersed to both sides of the street at the moment of hearing the bell, and the middle of the street was forbidden to cars and horses, at this moment, everyone quieted down, quietly watching the street, and the shops along the street were also silent, and the guests poked their heads out and looked at the quiet street expectantly.
It didn't take long for the sound of neat footsteps to be heard, and after a while, groups of soldiers in armor and sharp armor walked out of their respective barracks in the city and walked towards the outer city walls.
There were no flowers, no enthusiastic shouts, not even solemn gazes, just faint smiles, yes, everyone just ordinary smiles, like greetings between family members......
"I'm back!"
"I'm back!"
"The meal is ready!"
"Oh, here we are!"
……
Such a metaphor obviously does not match the atmosphere at this time, but at this moment, this gentleness that fills the sky over Biancheng is so natural!
It is so natural that it can only be interpreted by home......
Mixed in such a team, Xu Chen walked through this long street, and as soon as the city guards passed, the passers-by on both sides of the street resumed their actions just now, shopping and shopping, and playing games......
"This ......"
For the scene in front of them, Xu Chen and the two had the same doubts, so they glanced at each other as a matter of course. However, Xu remembered what had just happened, and the girl quickly turned her head away and snorted coldly.
"Don't make a fuss! when is this!" Xu Chen rebuked angrily.
"That's right, I'm such a woman who doesn't know the general situation, what's the matter?" The girl was looking forward to the other party's warm words or two, but she didn't want to be still a cold dogma, and the sourness in her heart suddenly turned into anger.
"Enough! Do you know what the situation is now, this is going to war!" Xu Chen said coldly.
"Yo he! I don't know how to fight, do I? When I went into battle, you didn't know where to be a beggar!"
Yang Ziyun's anger rushed straight to her head, and after saying this, she was immediately dumbfounded!
"I ......" just wanted to say something to save it, but saw Xu Chenqing and said in a low voice: "Yes, I am a beggar, no ...... than you, the eldest lady"
After speaking, Xu Chen turned his head away and never looked here again.
Yang Ziyun's heart couldn't help but hurt, and she wanted to apologize, but what happened just now flashed in her mind, and after hesitating, Xu Chen had already walked away quickly......
The noise of a group of children at the back of the team will naturally not be remembered by Yun Ye, and at this moment, several younger men have been surrounded by Yun Ye.
These men were not dressed in armor like ordinary soldiers, but at most they had a dull piece of iron hanging between their chests and abdomen.
"Yuntou'er, how could the beast tide come so early this year?"
"Yes, but what happened?"
……
These people were talking one after another, and their faces could not hide their inquiring looks.
"Hehe" Yun Ye smiled faintly and said: "Even if there is something, it should be you who know first, and the old man who came to ask me about the retirement, didn't he ask Yu Blind!"
"What didn't the lord tell you?" said the not-so-clever fellow.
Yun Ye still smiled lightly and said, "How can I speculate about the affairs of the city lord?"
"Ha, haha! Laugh! Don't mind!" Yuntou'er, don't mind!" The guy who had a short circuit in his head just now also reacted at this moment, waving his hand, and kept playing haha.
"Hehe, let's chat! It's out of the way!" Yun Ye gently revealed. Then he said: "Has the defense zone been divided this time?"
"The second master just passed the word, this time in a hurry, there is no time to refine, all the troops are deployed according to last year's defense area!" replied a man who looked older and had an old face.
When Yun Ye heard this, he frowned slightly, and said, "If this is the case, wouldn't the troops that suffered huge losses last year still have to defend a large area of defense?
The man smiled bitterly: "This is also something that can't be helped, after all, this year's beast tide came too early, and the counselors of the military government have not done a good job of this year's defense map." ”
"It's too early? It's only half a month in advance, isn't it? In the past, the annual defense map would be delivered to the armies three months in advance!"
Yun Ye glanced at the man angrily, and the man had no choice but to lower his head. R1058
