Chapter 72
As soon as Qinghuan and Nan Yang walked out of the guest room area, they were shocked by the situation outside the stone fence door. A few days ago, only a few disciples of the Random Flower passed by in the guest room area here, and no one had ever visited outside the door, but now there are three layers of Random Flower disciples outside the entrance, adding up to more than ten people, each holding an umbrella, and the other hand directly carrying the unsheathed sword, with a strict expression.
Wugong saw the two of them, stepped forward with an umbrella and said, "You came out." Please go to the main hall to meet the lord of the valley. ”
"What happened, why are so many people here?" Qinghuan wondered.
"It's a very strict matter," Wugong's tone was solemn, and the speed of his speech was relatively fast, "The old valley lord had poisoned the crane the night before. The Young Valley Lord officially took over as the new Valley Lord, and when the power was transposed, the Right Elder took the opportunity to unite with people from unknown forces outside the valley to surround the Ranhua Valley from above the canyon. The central area of the Ranhua Valley was already in a mess early this morning, but because the guest room area was far away, it didn't have time to notify the guest room...... The valley lord specially ordered me to invite the lord of Nanyang to go to the main hall to help. ”
"Then these people ......"
"The valley is in chaos now, there are some people under the right elder who have been rebelled, and this is the valley lord specially sent to protect the two disciples who went to the main hall." Wugong raised his finger and pointed at the more than ten Tsing Yi disciples holding umbrellas and carrying swords.
Qing Huan only secretly said in his heart, if something big happened soon, but this speed was really unexpected. It turns out that since last night, the turmoil has already happened.
"In that case, go quickly to your valley master." Nan Yang frowned, and gestured to Qing Huan with a side face, Qing Huan nodded very tacitly, and kept his hand on the hilt of the phoenix feather sword in a vigilant state.
The group was holding umbrellas, and from a distance, they saw the round tops of the umbrellas moving regularly. They didn't meet any dangerous people on the road, but they could see the disciples standing guard everywhere along the road, with a stern and worried expression; There are also huge mecha beasts that are well-made at the important checkpoint intersections, which look like unicorns, clattering and walking around, looking heavy and terrifying.
Junqiao deployed all the Ranhua disciples available for her to dispatch around the main hall, and the people from the Shanshan faction were also picked up by Nameless.
In the main hall, Jun Qiao sat alone on the gorgeous high seat belonging to the lord of the Ranflower Valley, looking tired, rubbing his forehead with one hand on the armrest, and rubbing the white jade mask with the other hand on his knees. Wuji stood behind her, bowed his head and said these things to her; Bian Zi sat down below.
When Qing Huan entered the main hall, he made eye contact with Liu Wuhe, who was sitting in the lower seat, and immediately looked away, as if nothing had happened.
When Junqiao saw them coming, there seemed to be some light in his eyes, and he straightened his waist slightly and said, "Nanyang...... You're coming. ”
"Master." Bian Zi stood up and walked to Nanyang's side.
When I got closer, Junqiao's eyes were still a little red and swollen, thinking that it was very sad to lose her father at night, but before her father could rest in peace, some villains took the opportunity to make trouble. But in this valley, she has no self, and no merit and no name can help her a little.
"How's it going?" Before Nan Yang sat down, he raised his eyebrows and said in a deep voice.
"They were all premeditated. Before I went to the north to punish and left for a long time, the right elder changed the disciples of the valley several times, and attracted many new disciples who were inclined to him, and my father's power had long been hollowed out. When I came back this time, I also dug a pit for me to jump, but I still don't know what the group of people who surrounded the Valley of Ranflower came from, I only knew that there was cooperation between them. Jun Qiao paused, sighed, and frowned more and more, "I should have been prepared for the destruction of all the four rope ladders earlier, how could it be such a coincidence!" ”
"How many people are on both sides?"
Wuji stepped forward and replied, "Young Valley Lord...... No, there is a huge gap between the people on the valley lord's side and the enemy, plus the three guests from the north and the five guests from Shanshan, there are only two hundred people in total. However, it is conservatively estimated that there are between 3,000 and 5,000 people surrounding the Valley of Wild Flowers. ”
Nan Yang pondered for a moment, and then said: "Now that our two hundred people are besieged in the center, we can't escape left and right, if we kill them, how much chance is it to succeed?" ”
"Less than one percent." Wuji lowered his head, and his voice was deep.
"Where are the right elders and the disciples who were rebelled against now?"
"They are located in the southeast, northwest, and four rope ladders, and they have been united with the peripheral forces, so I'm afraid it's ...... We'll be besieged before tonight. ”
Qinghuan raised her eyebrows in surprise, not knowing what to say. The situation is suddenly so critical, and it has been raining heavily outside, and in such bad weather, the two houses will only suffer more losses if they fight on their side.
"I'm here, are you still waiting for death?" Nan Yang's voice was a little cold, and Qing Huan saw that her hand hidden in the cuff had been faintly clenched into a fist.
"Yo, it is worthy of being the dignified lord of the Northern Punishment, the words that come out are different," Cheng Zhuming, who had been silent for a long time, smiled lightly, crossed his hands in front of his chest, and raised his chin slightly, "But Lord Nanyang, even if you are strong in martial arts, can you guarantee that you will be surrounded by five thousand people with these two hundred people?" ”
"Shut up!" Bian Zi shouted loudly.
"You'd better think of a way to do it, be pragmatic. Instead of killing like a fool, I think it's better to start digging tunnels and escaping now. Cheng Zhuming sneered.
"You dare to say that you fucking start digging for Lao Tzu now!" Bian Zi took advantage of the ground and pointed hard.
"Senior brother!" Qinghuan tugged at the corner of his clothes and shook his head at him.
Wuji's eyes suddenly lit up, and he suddenly turned to Junqiao and hugged his fists and said: "Valley Lord, my subordinates remember that the old Valley Lord once revealed that there is a very large dungeon under the main hall, which used to be used when many people needed to be imprisoned, but then it was abandoned and no one opened it again. Can we take a break from there? ”
“…… I vaguely remember that there was such a dungeon, but ......" Kimihashi thought in embarrassment.
If it is not discovered, if it is discovered, it will be gathered in a pile and given to people to kill.
"Don't think about it, find it first, for most people here, it's better to hide than not to hide." Nan Yang sighed slightly and gently pressed Jun Qiao's shoulder.
"Okay, let's look for it first." Junqiao nodded.
The three of them were ordered to find the entrance to the dungeon.
After about a quarter of an hour, the three of them returned, and said without themselves: "Tell the valley lord, there are four entrances to the dungeon, three of which have been completely damaged, and only one in the left hall can still be opened, but because no one has opened it for too long, the doors are all ...... Rust off. ”
Cheng Zhuming snorted in his nose: "Rust? As long as the door is still there, there's nothing I can't open, let's go, take me to the door. ”
Bian Zi also snorted: "You? Can you open the door? ”
"Stinky boy, no matter how long the broken door is, can it be as old as the door in the ancient tomb? Who else is more familiar with the things in the tomb than our Shanshan faction. Don't look down on people. Cheng Zhuming sneered.
"You ......"
"Senior brother, let's say a few words, it's important to open the door." Qinghuan softly warned Bian Zi.
Nan Yang squinted and looked outside the gate, the rain was still heavy, and the sky was getting more and more gloomy, as if it was about to fall into the night. The disciples outside walked anxiously back and forth in their robes, as if they were arranging some kind of mechanism.
"There's not much time left, please become a son." Junqiao Zhengsedao.
Cheng Zhuming crooked the corners of his mouth: "Gu Master is serious, although I was forced to stand on your side, but everyone is in the same boat, it is useless for me to regret it, everyone just takes what they need." ”
"What a nasty person." Bian Zi couldn't help but mutter.
There were about twenty people in the main hall, and they went to the dungeon door in the left hall together, and the spacious corridor where one person usually leads to guò suddenly seemed a little crowded. Walking to the end of the corridor in the left hall, the floor that originally covered the dungeon door had been lifted, and a square bronze door about four feet horizontal and vertical was tightly covered on the ground, and there was obvious patina sticking to the door panel and the stone bricks next to it at the corners, and even the original carved patterns on the bronze door could not be seen clearly.
"Tsk, if it's really been deserted for a long time, this place in the Valley of Wild Flowers is already damp, and the bronze rusts faster. Wait patiently, and we'll do our best to clean up the patina. Cheng Zhu Ming was rarely stern, and then everyone retreated some distance to him, and he ordered the remaining four Shanshan Sect disciples to disperse by the bronze gate, and everyone took out the professional tools they carried with them and began to clean up.
"Cheng Deputy Hall Master, please do your best, it's almost night, and time is pressing." No self is urging.
"This pile of patina is placed here, it's useless for you to urge me, let's find a way to send more people outside to delay time!"
Everyone was speechless, so they had to stand aside and watch them bend over and concentrate on their work.
Not long after, there were bursts of rattling sounds in the air from far and near, and Qinghuan looked at the source of the sound vigilantly, only to see two damaged mecha birds stumbling over from the outside and staggering to Junqiao's hand. Junqiao took out the information from the mecha bird's chest, and his face changed suddenly.
"Oh no, they're already here."
Nan Yang immediately quickly asked Cheng Candleming: "How long do you need to clean up?" ”
"Half an hour at least." Cheng Zhuming's forehead also began to sweat, and his brows were tightly locked.
"You guys are here to clean up, Zi Zhan, you are guarding here, Shaogu Lord, and Qinghuan, go out with me and drag them down. As soon as the door is opened, the child will come and let us know. ”
"Master......" Bian Zi said in a hurry, but when he saw Nan Yang's solemn expression, he had to sigh: "Master, junior sister, be careful." ”
"Senior brother, don't worry, remember not to quarrel with Cheng Gongzi." Qinghuan smiled reluctantly and pushed Bianzi's shoulder.
