Chapter 50: Into Tongcheng
Tongcheng is surrounded by formations to maintain, which is difficult for Luo Yuyan. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info In the original formation, Luo Yuyan made some tricks and feet to facilitate the siege of the city. Perhaps because of the existence of the formation, there were not many soldiers guarding the city wall, and when the soldiers changed shifts, two people flew in.
The two of them dodged and hid in a dark corner, Sha Li unfolded the map in his hand, and the simple lines and approximate locations in the city were also marked, and the back of the map was indeed drawn with a picture of code words.
"Immortal, look at this map, what should we do next?" Sha Li handed the map to Luo Yuyan.
Luo Yuyan didn't even look at it, and said: "This is left to you, I have some other things to check when I come to Tongcheng, so I can't take you with me, you just need to stay in a safe place and wait for me to come back." ”
"How's that going to work?!" Sha Li's eyes widened.
Luo Yuyan unfolded the map, pointed at one place, and said: "If I guessed correctly, the General's Mansion should be a safe place, I will send you over tonight, you will stay in the General's Mansion honestly, and I will pick you up after the investigation." ”
Sha Li originally wanted to refute it, but she didn't expect Luo Yuyan to send her to the General's Mansion, isn't this just going deep into the enemy's army, so she immediately shut up and nodded vigorously.
Carefully groping all the way, Tongcheng in the middle of the night can only be described as "dead silence", the doors and windows of each house are closed, and there is no light in sight, if it is not for the occasional soldiers patrolling the city, it really looks like a dead city.
"Immortal, what's the matter? It's not so silent. Sha Li leaned behind Luo Yuyan and asked in a low voice. This kind of atmosphere is indeed too weird, and the demon Shali is not afraid, but the ghosts are not necessarily, although I don't know if there will be ghosts here.
Luo Yuyan carefully probed the surrounding situation, and he whispered, "I'm afraid there is really an empty city left." ”
When he heard "Empty City", he still felt a little creepy, Sha Li shrunk his neck, pulled Luo Yuyan's sleeve and said, "Immortal, do you know something?" ”
"Not sure yet." Luo Yuyan didn't hide it from Sha Li, "I just don't think something is right in Tongcheng, I asked Xiao Yan to help me find out the records about Tongcheng, and I found that there is no too valuable news, so the best way is to come in person, you have made me a favor." ”
Sha Li smiled: "This is also a tacit understanding." ”
"It's a joke, but this investigation is really dangerous, I can't take you deep into danger, now is not the time for you to be stubborn and reckless, listen to me and stay in the mansion honestly." Luo Yuyan's voice was deep, and his tone was calm and irresistible with majesty.
Sha Li also knows her own catties, and now that the city is so weird, she doesn't dare to run around casually if she has the guts. Even if there is a small mistake, it will not only affect Luo Yuyan, but also the entire army of Zhige.
"Immortal, that ...... There's nothing scary in the city...... "Shali's voice began to tremble.
"Don't be cranky, hold the Sansheng Sword tightly, and calm down. Wait a minute, I'll put a spell on you, and if you're in danger, hit it with your true qi, and I'll sense it. ”
Sha Li was moved by this in her heart, although she was treated as an oil bottle, she was still a oil bottle held by someone after all.
Following the map, I found the General's Mansion. The gate was closed, and the stone steps outside the door were covered with a thin layer of ash, and it seemed that no one had cleaned it for some days. The two jumped in, and there was no sound in the courtyard except the rustle of leaves. The moonlight was hazy, casting patches of shadow.
"You just stay in the house quietly, hide by yourself, and come back to pick you up after I finish investigating." Luo Yuyan's eyes were bright, and Sha Li nodded involuntarily.
The dark robe seemed to blend with the night, only the clear eyes were like stars, which was difficult to let go, and Sha Li subconsciously grabbed the corners of his sleeves, for fear that he would turn into an immortal and go away, leaving himself alone in this gloomy mansion.
Luo Yuyan was also slightly stunned, his stunned expression was fleeting, and he patted her hand with a little comfort, his expression was soft. "Stay here in peace, I'll be back soon."
Sha Li nodded obediently again, loosened his sleeves, and the soft texture slipped from his hands, suddenly a little reluctant. She can't fathom the person in front of her, he is the second son of Shanmen admired by everyone, his temperament is inherited and unworldly, as if all kinds of things in the world can't enter his eyes, and he will always smile indifferently. But Sha Li saw him, although he was leisurely and free on weekdays, but his dark side was simply unbeatable, even if he could make Lou Qingxiao half angry, he was still a defeated man in front of him, and he was cleaned up and obedient. On a rare occasion, the coldness and loneliness that were inadvertently revealed made Sha Li feel so strange and afraid to approach.
Luo Yuyan was the first person she trusted when she came here, and for some reason she became a little follower so stubbornly. Several times he was in danger and saved his own life, if it is not grateful, it would be a lie, when he was most critical, there was only one thought in his heart - to seize his hand.
Sha Li looked at his hand that had not yet been put down in a daze, and so many unknown thoughts appeared in an instant, and he was also very strange, and Luo Yuyan's figure had already disappeared into the night.
"Tut, sure enough, I've been too idle lately." Shali yawned.
Sha Li understands the stakes in each party, since Luo Yuyan asked her to stay honest, then stay here with peace of mind. Holding the Sansheng Sword in his hand, he probed this general's mansion inside and out. As expected, the house was empty.
There was a smell of old dust in the house, and everything was calm, as if it was a family outing, except for the unmowed flowers and fine floating ash, as if there were still people living. The items are neatly arranged and seem to have been carefully organized.
Weird. Shali secretly pondered. It didn't look like a hasty departure, and it didn't look like something had happened. With such a large general's mansion, there are dozens of people, why can these people leave calmly after sorting out everything? So orderly, without a hint of panic.
Sha Li was afraid of being weird, so she didn't dare to go to sleep, so she only cleaned out a Taishi chair in the main hall, and decided to meditate on the Taishi chair in the second half of the night to nourish her energy. Although Luo Yuyan didn't let himself out of the General's Mansion, it was still okay to take a small probe.
Waking up refreshed in the morning, Shali was also ready to do a big job. Shali took advantage of a big tree by the high wall to sneak out and peek out.
Tongcheng in the early morning is still solemn and deserted, last night was in a hurry, and in the darkness I didn't care about the surrounding situation, now I can finally take a look at this city that has been unable to be attacked for a long time.
Seem...... It really became an empty city.
The streets were deserted, not even the soldiers on patrol. Shali scratched her hair, in such a strange situation, she didn't know how to start.
Just as they were at a loss, there were footsteps in the distance, many of them and a messy voice, not like well-trained soldiers. Shali lowered her body and looked carefully.
The group walked in a hurry, most of them were women, children and old people, and there were soldiers on both sides to guide them. There are no handcuffs and leg irons, and the pace looks brisk, it should not be coerced, but like a hurry to go somewhere.
They were all ordinary people, and when they were a little farther away, Shali decided to follow the past. "It's better to die than to stay in this gloomy place." After successfully comforting himself, he quietly left the General's Mansion.
For this kind of thing, Shali didn't dare to be careless. The Sansheng Sword has long been connected with his own heart, Xiao Shi Yifa hid the sword, and the clothes on his body were changed to the most ordinary burlap, and he rolled his hair casually, if he didn't look carefully, he would look like the daughter of an ordinary family.
There weren't many soldiers with him, and Shali quietly blended in to the end. Sha Li lowered her head and silently followed at the end, and the people around her didn't notice that there was one more person.
A little girl walking in front of Shali was tripped under her feet, Shali subconsciously reached out to help her, the little girl was thin and slender, although her face was not good, but she was barely energetic, she raised her eyes and glanced at Shali vigilantly, and quickly withdrew her hand. Shali was not annoyed, and let her go.
The little girl followed a few steps, and saw that Shali didn't react, so she glanced sideways slightly, and Shali didn't look at her. The little girl deliberately slowed down a few steps and followed Shali to the end.
"I haven't seen you." The little girl said.
"I haven't seen you either." Shali also has an attitude of ignoring answers.
When she heard this, the little girl pursed her mouth. Sha Li snickered in her heart, I haven't seen anything in the north and south, and I'm also a little expert in mouth cannons.
Sure enough, the little girl tilted her head unconvinced: "I know all the people on this street." ”
"I don't live on this street, I live in a house."
"......" the little girl is angry.
Sha Li patted her head lightly: "I helped you just now, just talk to me." ”
The little girl didn't dislike Sha Li, although she had a cold face, her tone was much better: "You have a good temper and can't be eaten, who knows why you want to help me." ”
Shali burst out laughing, causing the little girl's face to flush. "I agree with the first sentence, a good temper really can't fill your stomach. As for the latter sentence, did I help you? This girl is good-tempered, just help you, I'm happy. ”
At this time, the little girl was completely speechless, but stared at Shali unexpectedly. "Look you're dressed cleanly, and I'm a little beggar, why are you so nice to me?"
"The vigilance is so heavy, be careful that you don't grow tall." Sha Li raised his eyebrows and said with a grin. When the little girl heard this, she glared angrily.
Sha Li thought this kid was quite interesting, and by the way, he could also knock on the side about Tongcheng, so he simply continued to chat. "I'm just an inferior maid of the general's family, and I don't leave the house on weekdays, so it's strange that you know me. Not long ago, I was angry with the boss and locked me up, and after a few days, I found that no one cared about me, and when I escaped from the firewood room, there was no one in the general's mansion. ”
"The General's Mansion went to the sheltered place under the city a few months ago, so why didn't you catch up?" The little girl wondered.
Sha Li made it up casually, but I didn't expect the little girl to believe it, and continued: "Where do I dare to catch up, besides, I think the house is very good, they are not there, I am the owner of the general's mansion, haha, I will sleep in the general's house." ”
The little girl's eyes lit up: "The general's room must be very comfortable, right?" ”
"Well, that's what it's like to sleep." Sha Li said nonsense, "On the contrary, the bed in charge is comfortable, and I am not less greedy for money on weekdays." ”
This sentence hit the little girl, and she nodded angrily.
"Seeing that all the people in the city have gone to the sheltered place, I don't dare to live in the house anymore, it seems that the war is about to start, and if the boss finds out that I have slept in her bed in the future, she will definitely not spare me. No, I secretly followed this team. ”
The little girl completely let down her guard, took the initiative to get closer, and said some things about herself. Sha Li seemed to be careless, and many details were silently remembered in his heart, and he probably understood a lot of things.
This Tongcheng is really interesting.
