Chapter 322: A Critical Moment
The mountains to the north were set on fire, and that's a big deal. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIf Wei Yu remembers correctly, before, the Southern Zhao Kingdom in the north was feintting to attack Qi Song.
If someone set fire to the mountains in the north at this time, then the soldiers of Qi Songtun in the north would not all suffer.
"Damn, why are all these things here today. Xiao Si, you personally took the 6,000 people we had in the East Valley to put out the fire. Wei Yu endured the pain and slammed his palm on the table and ordered.
"Please take care of your son, I'll go." Xiao Si also knew that this matter was not trivial, so he pressed his worries and flew away with Zhou Liu.
Lao Dao went up to the top of the attic, looked north, looked up at the starry sky, stretched out his hand to feel the wind direction and humidity, and then came down.
"Don't worry, everything is predestined. However, I think you have to hurry to Leshan tonight, boy Yu. There will be heavy rain in the next few days, and the water of both the Zuojiang River and the Yong River will skyrocket. Lao Dao said to himself, and he actually guessed Wei Yu's plan.
After speaking, Lao Dao handed Wei Yu a small porcelain bottle and asked him to take one immediately. Take one tablet a day until the wound heals.
Qi Ji came down from the attic, looked at the porcelain bottle in Wei Yu's hand, grabbed it with a scream, and poured out seven or eight before returning it to Wei Yu.
Wei Yu didn't care too much, there were fifty or sixty pills in the small porcelain bottle.
"The old man is high-minded. Now it seems that God still treats Qi Song very favorably. After Wei Yu finished speaking, he drank a bowl of soup slowly, and then called Qinghuo who was waiting on the side to leave.
Lao Dao glanced at Li Xiaonuan who was lying on the couch, stroked his beard and said to himself: "All these changes are because of you." Qi Song's fate is also in your hands. If it weren't for the technology you brought, Qi Song would have died this time. ”
Xiao Gang waited for Su Shi and the old lady to finish eating, and when he came out, he heard Lao Dao talking to himself, so he stepped forward to ask curiously.
Lao Dao didn't answer, but looked at Yilou, who was eating skewers, and said to Xiao Gang: "The eyebrows are thick like a sword, the eyes are peach blossoms, and the fate is Hongluan, you will suffer in the future." Or, you will become a monk and practice with the old way, and the old way I will cross the calamity for you? ”
Xiao Gang was ignorant, but he knew that he must not follow the old way to become a monk, so he replied: "Old man, there are only me and my brother and my two sons in our family." My mother is still counting on me to marry a daughter-in-law and have grandchildren in the future. ”
Lao Dao nodded, glanced at Yilou who didn't know how to worry, and sighed: "Life should be like this, life should be like this." ”
It was late at night. Lao Dao looked at the situation outside, and asked Li Dad and the others to go back to the village. After all, there will be some trouble in the city tonight, and it will be more dangerous to stay out of the crowd.
It just so happened that Mama Jin also came down with the master and servant of Sang Moyun, who had just woken up.
So, Lao Dao instructed the Tian guards, who were waiting outside, to send someone to Sangfu to pick up Sang's mother, and go to Li's house to avoid it.
The group dragged and dragged on, and finally returned to Li's house when the moon was in the middle of the sky.
At this time, the coachmen and guards who had gone to escort the hired workers also returned to the village. They also brought back very bad news.
There was chaos in the city. Some people took advantage of the night to assassinate the prefect and the county master, and set fires everywhere in the city.
However, the fire failed to burn and was extinguished by General Qi and his people.
And then there is, the officers and soldiers guarding the city gates, for some reason, were replaced by guards in armor.
The strangest thing is that the displaced people who had squatted outside the city walls before were all gone.
"When we returned, the gates were under martial law. The people of the city closed their doors, and there was not a single figure in the streets. "This coachman surnamed Jiang was bought back from the capital by Li Xiaonuan.
"But what is the situation of the government?" Tian Huwei asked.
"The people in the government have been prepared for a long time. Apart from the injuries of some officials, there were no official casualties. One of the guards who had gone with the car replied.
"Okay, got it. Let's go down. With a wave of his hand, the Tian guards walked around the Li family in person, ordering those guards to cheer up tonight to prepare for a possible attack.
In the inner courtyard, Li Xiaonuan, who had eaten a pill, woke up, and after being forcibly poured a bowl of raw chicken blood, he fainted again.
After a shallow layer of reddish-brown poisonous blood and sweat oozed from her body, she woke up again.
Lao Dao took her pulse and said that this medicine is effective, and if she takes it for seven days in a row, the poison will be completely resolved.
Everyone in the Li family saw that Li Xiaonuan was in a lot of spirits, so they let go of their hearts.
After a period of chaos, the Li family's old and young were washed clean before they rested in the second half of the night.
Lao Dao and Qi Ji lived in the east house in the front yard. Although both of them were very tired, they did not dare to close their eyes and fall asleep.
Tonight is not only the night that determines the fate of Qi and Song, but also the night that tests the emperor's ability.
Suddenly there was a thunderclap, which made the otherwise silent night even more terrifying.
Li Xiaonuan had just fallen asleep when he was woken up by thunder.
Outside the glass window, lightning and thunder roared, and the wind blew fiercely, causing the first storm of the summer.
This rain reassured Qi Ji, who had been worried about the fire in Beishan. If it is captured by fire, his brother Qi Ting will be implicated.
Fortunately, fortunately, the rain fell in time, and Qi Ting did not suffer the dilemma of internal and external difficulties in the city.
When it rains, it seems to wash away a lot of sins and cleanse a lot of souls.
When the day was about to dawn, the Li family was attacked by a group of homeless people. The group of homeless people seemed to be homeless, but the kung fu in their hands was even more fierce and ruthless than Qi Song's elite soldiers.
Although the people brought by Tian Guard, they were all outstanding people who had been selected to protect the palace. But in the face of a master who outnumbered them three times, they could only retreat.
Fortunately, Li Xiaonuan's wall was cleverly built and strong, but it allowed Tian to guard them to temporarily defend the Li family.
However, people's physical strength is limited, let alone when there is such a disparity in strength.
Later, it was Li Xiaonuan who asked people to set fire to all the kitchens in the courtyard of the Li family, boiled dozens of pots of boiling water, and let people carry them up to the courtyard wall and splash them on those who besieged the courtyard of the Li family, so that they could barely drag it out for a while.
After that, Li Xiaonuan asked people to add chili peppers to the boiling water. This time, a lot of people were repelled.
It's just that the nurses are exhausted, and there is no way to rush out and strangle the remaining invaders who are equal to the number of people in the nurses.
As for the people left behind by Wei Yu, they have been patrolling the village and its surroundings all the time, and pulling out those enemies who are hiding in the shadows.
What's more, when the homeless people came to attack the Li family, another group of people also appeared in the village, specifically to entangle the people left behind by Wei Yu.
Therefore, Wei Yu's people who stayed in the village failed to help the Li family at all.
Fortunately, the people of Zhou Village had received a notice before, and they all hid in the ancestral hall of Zhou Village. In the ancestral hall, there is a secret passage, which is connected with the karst cave under the Dongshan Mountain Range.
The entrance of the cave is under the mourning hall of the Zhou family ancestral hall. It's a sturdy place, and it's easy for idlers to find them.
Somehow, the number of displaced people in the village suddenly increased. The displaced people were more or less injured. Apparently, they had fled from elsewhere.
"Come on, let's go into Li's house, catch that stinky girl, and we'll be able to get out." Someone yelled outside.
From that stiff tone, it can be heard that the person who came is not from the Central Plains.
The scene was about to get out of control, and Tian Huwei and the others couldn't support it when they saw it.
Li Xiaonuan supported her chest with severe pain, followed her dizzy head, stood by the door and watched the pouring rain, feeling that her donkey skills were poor.
If it's sunny or rainy, she can use the 300 bombs prepared at home, and she can also repel people.
However, such heavy rain can obviously drench the fuse. Therefore, these iron balls are useless.
In addition, the heavy rain also reduces the power of boiling water a lot, and it can also relieve the burning pain caused by chili peppers.
As a result, the Li family fell into unprecedented despair.
If it weren't for the old way, Yilou would have to go out to meet the enemy in person. Fortunately, Lao Dao is quite calm.
He just stared at the sky, saying something about waiting for the right time, not to be reckless or something.
Gradually, the people of the Li family found that not only the Li family was attacked, but even in the city, there were bursts of shouts of killing.
And the North Mountain, since this morning, has been beating drums. Of course, there is a war going on over there.
"County Lord, come with us, we can't hold it here." Escort Tian rushed into the inner courtyard with a body of blood and water, and yelled at Li Xiaonuan.
"Let's go? Where to go? Can we still get out? Why don't you let me go out and lead them away, and you can escort my father and mother and them away. Li Xiaonuan resolutely made a decision and was about to go out.
Father Li and the others all stopped in front of Li Xiaonuan and said that they would not let her go out.
"If you want to go, I'll go, I'm an old woman, half of my body is already buried in the soil, I won't lose money when I go out." The old lady walked out on crutches.
"Grandma, I'll go. As the grandson of the Li family, I have an obligation to protect all the people of the Li family. Xiao Yang grabbed the old lady, turned around and ran into the rain.
Fortunately, Qi Ji came in from the front and was able to pull Xiaoyang back in time.
"None of you have to go out. Whoever goes out is a death. It's better to stay here together, maybe there will be a turnaround. Qi Ji said with an unkind face.
He saw Sang Moyun hugging Sang Mu and sitting by the door. However, he doesn't have the energy to grow up with children now.
However, Qi Ji went up directly and hugged Sang Moyun in his arms, silently comforting him.
was silent, the gate of the outer courtyard collapsed, and the shouts of killing moved to the front yard of the Li family.
In the front yard, the old man was resisting with more than a dozen guards. It's just that it can only resist for a while.
Just when Li Xiaonuan thought that those people were about to rush in and slaughter all of them, a burst of artillery sounds sounded in the outer courtyard.
With every cannon shot, screams came in.
Could it be ...... (To be continued.) )
