III. 104 Clues
Out of the city gate tower, Yin Lei let out a sigh, and the herald who accompanied him said: "Brother Xuanyuan, this is the first time I have seen someone who has been summoned by the general and left so quickly, and the others do not want to show their talents in front of the general, in order to be reused." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biqugeγ info[η^ζ^δΉ¦εΊ][]. [774] [buy]. []β
Yin Lei smiled: "But I don't have any talent to show, and I will be ugly if I stay any longer." β
"Brother Xuanyuan laughed."
At this time, the shouting and killing were loud, and Ziyun's attack became more ferocious, and this time their bows and arrows did not stop, but they shot not at the city wall but into the city wall, it seems that they want to prevent the dragon kingdom from carrying water to the city wall. At the same time, Yin Lei found that a row of shields had been lined up on the steps of the city wall, and under the protection of the shields, the water was continuously transported to the city wall and fell down.
Just when Yin Lei wanted to go down, a gong suddenly sounded, and then the attacking Ziyun army retreated like a tide, Yin Lei couldn't help but be stunned, what kind of play is this?
Seeing Yin Lei's question, the herald said, "Brother Xuanyuan, be careful, their trebuchet is coming." β
As he was speaking, a black shadow flashed in the air, but it was the trebuchet of the Dragon Kingdom that took the lead, but Yin Lei found that the largest stone thrown this time was only the size of a human head, and it was obvious that this was just a way to harass the other party.
Sure enough, as the herald said, the stones of the Dragon Kingdom had just flown over, and the stones from the Ziyun side also flew over, but the time of the two sides was so close that many stones fell in the air, and then Yin Lei knew that the role of the Dragon Kingdom in launching the gravel also had this purpose, which could not only affect the opponent's trebuchet, but also shoot down some of the flying stones.
Most of the soldiers carrying water on the side of the Dragon Kingdom stood against the city wall, and although they were occasionally injured under the blows of the opponent's trebuchets, they were rarely injured.
Seeing this, Yin Lei not only said secretly: "It seems that only good ideas are not enough, pouring water under the city wall seems simple but it is difficult to implement, but seeing that the Dragon Kingdom has been arranged so thoroughly in such a short time, this General Zhao is really extraordinary." β
Yin Lei waited on the city wall for a while but found that this time the stones thrown by the other party did not fly like before, and stopped for a while, but kept projecting them to this side like the archers just now, but the number was less and more, Yin Lei understood that this was also an attack for harassment.
Then the shouts of killing sounded again, and countless Ziyun soldiers launched a fierce attack on the city wall with an even more ferocious posture.
"This brother, why did they retreat just now, and now they are coming up again? Their trebuchets haven't stopped, have they? β
"Their trebuchets also have to adjust the angle, for fear of injuring their own people by mistake."
"Oh, haven't asked your Excellency for your name?"
"Don't dare, the villain's surname is Meng Mingqinggong, and he will ask Xuanyuan to take care of him more often."
"I think Brother Meng has extraordinary conversation and rich experience, and he may not wait for Xuanyuan to achieve something, Brother Meng has already ......."
"Brother Xuanyuan laughed, I just followed General Zhao for a longer time and gained more knowledge."
"Brother Meng is too modest, and the younger brother has something important to do."
"Brother Xuanyuan, be careful."
"Thank you Brother Meng for your concern, farewell."
Yin Lei went down the steps and walked out of the city wall for a while, but found that the team carrying water to the city wall was not a human dragon, there were more than a dozen beacon towers on the city wall for more than 30 miles, and there was a human dragon carrying water to the city between every two beacon towers, so Yin Lei realized that this seemingly simple method would be so complicated.
Then he took advantage of the cover and quickly went to Sikong's house, and when Yin Lei returned to Sikong's house, it was already lunchtime, and Jieyue was waiting for Yin Lei to eat.
"Big girl in the room?"
"Yes, my sister replaced me when she cooked, my sister made a lot of delicious food today, brother, go wash your hands, let's eat."
Seeing Yin Lei picking the moon and smiling and bringing water to Yin Lei, Yin Lei said while washing: "Is it cold on it?" β
"It's not cold, our family is not afraid of the cold, I heard my father say that our family is a kind of body called 'Yuyang True Fire', and we are never afraid of the cold."
"The body of 'Yuyang True Fire'?"
Yin Lei unconsciously showed a trace of surprise when he heard this, but then he was relieved, there are many strange physiques in this world, and it is normal that he has not heard of it.
"Yes, in winter we don't feel cold as long as we are full."
"Then eat more, what did the chick do."
"Shredded potatoes, soybean sprouts, spinach, and my brother's favorite chicken cake."
"I'll buy some meat after eating in a while, eat more meat so that you won't be afraid of the cold, and your body is too thin, how can you be mentally refreshed if you don't replenish your physical strength, and when you learn martial arts with me, you will consume a lot of physical strength, so you should make up for it now."
"Great, I'm going to have meat to eat."
Picking the moon couldn't help but laugh happily when she heard it, but Yin Lei was a little sad when she saw the appearance of the picking moon.
After eating, Yin Lei went to the room to say hello to Guan Ri, knowing that there was no news during this time, so he went out to buy meat.
There are many fewer pedestrians on the street than usual, and few people go out at this time without special things, out of the alley Yin Lei went to the butcher shop not far from the northeast, but when he arrived, he found that the butcher shop was also closed, Yin Lei couldn't help but smile bitterly, it seems that the people who are most affected by this war are still the people.
Just when Yin Lei wanted to turn around and go back, he heard someone behind him say: "This little brother is the elder brother of the two girls of the Sikong family, right, you are also here to sell meat?" β
Yin Lei looked back and saw that it was Uncle Wang, a neighbor on the left side of Sikong's house, and said, "Yes, I see that they usually don't eat well, and I want to sell some meat to improve the food, but I didn't expect the butcher shop to be closed."
"Yes, the big girl is too good at it, usually don't say it's meat, even the dishes are reluctant to eat, but then again, she can't do it, her family was rich in those years, now that your conditions are good, it's time for them to eat something good, it doesn't matter if it's closed here, let's go to the front, there is a big store there that won't be closed, I'm going to buy some meat, let's go together."
"Great, thank you Uncle Wang for your advice."
Then the two went all the way to the east, and along the way, Uncle Wang told Yin Lei a lot of things about the Sikong family, most of which were how the big girl would live and how to be sensible. After a short time, the two of them crossed a few streets to another place selling meat, which was a little more popular, and was surrounded by all kinds of small shops selling things.
The two of them just entered the butcher shop but saw a thin man carrying more than 20 catties of meat coming out of it, the two hurriedly stepped aside to avoid getting it, and when the man went out, Uncle Wang said casually: "This is not a place for big families to buy vegetables, how can this person buy so much meat, and he is not afraid of eating it." β
The speaker has no intention to listen to the intention, Yin Lei couldn't help but move when he heard it, he and Zhang Baoju and a few people have studied Ziyun Xizuo's hiding place, generally speaking, they only have three ways to hide, one is to stay in the guest house, this method is the most unsafe, at this time, the officers and soldiers of Huijiang City are extremely strict with the inn, and they do not use them to act. The second is that there are their forces in the local area, and they are the most likely and safest to hide in them, but as Zhang Baizong said, the fine work that came to Huijiang this time should not be a team, that is to say, there are still people who will use the third method to hide, that is, to buy a courtyard here as a temporary place to stay.
After listening to Uncle Wang's words, Yin Lei's heart moved, how many people eat more than 20 catties of meat at noon, and it is not a big family, thinking of this, Yin Lei hurriedly said: "Uncle Wang, I saw an acquaintance just now, you buy it first, I'll go out, you don't have to wait for me." β
Saying that, Yin Lei didn't wait for Uncle Wang to react, turned around and ran, went out, Yin Lei looked around, found the whereabouts of the person, and immediately followed behind, there is a unique way of a hunter to track Yin Lei, and at this time, he is deaf and clear, and he doesn't need to be so close to others, the most important thing is that there are few pedestrians on the street now, and people will find out if they are close, Yin Lei knows that those who can be sent out are veterans of the other party's business, and they must not be careless.
Far away Yin Lei hung the man a few streets, when the person entered a small alley again did not come out, Yin Lei first passed by at the mouth of the alley to look inside, and then quickly went around to the other side to observe, just when Yin Lei turned around and wanted to leave, he suddenly found that there was a line on the snow next to him to form several traces of concentric circles, at first glance it seemed to be carved by a naughty boy, but Yin Lei knew that this was the mark left by his group, the starting position of the circle was indicated by the direction and the target direction, That is to say, there are already his own people who have noticed here, which can't help but make Yin Lei secretly happy in his heart, it seems that he has found the right place, but then Yin Lei's heart sank, and it was empty in the middle of those same circles, which means that the people who followed him have not gone back, if this person retreats safely, it will leave another mark inside the concentric circles, indicating that he has retreated safely, and now he has not found himself alone, where did he or them go?
Yin Lei immediately pointed out the direction of the imprint, and then found a few traces, but found that all the imprints were hollow in the middle, Yin Lei immediately turned back, but found that the imprint he had just seen was actually the last, Yin Lei understood that something had happened to this person.
Forcibly suppressed the qi and blood surging in his chest Yin Lei quickly looked around, and immediately found that there was a two-story building in another courtyard not far away, Yin Lei immediately rushed over to the courtyard wall of this house, and then Yin Lei stretched out his head to look at the courtyard, and when he saw that no one jumped in, he turned into four figures in a flash, and when the last figure appeared, he was already under the eaves of the two-story building.
Grabbing the eaves, Yin Lei squinted his eyes and looked carefully at the courtyard, but found that the courtyard was very large, with more than 20 houses in it, but it seemed that there were few people living in it, and no one had touched the snow in the entire courtyard, only a path leading to the gate was cleared, and at the same time, there was no one in the entire courtyard.
