Chapter 137: The Storm
After a while, the Situ family had almost put everything away.
The servants also waited in the courtyard with their families.
Situ Rang came to Ye Lingyu: "Everything is almost brought, Master Jiang is also waiting in the front yard, what are Ye Shaoxia's plans in the future?"
Ye Lingyu thought for a moment: "The East Gate Breakthrough, with Master Jiang in charge, shouldn't be a problem." After that, you go to other cities to settle down, and I will go to Loulan. ”
Just now, everyone also asked the man of the storm, and learned that the next target after the storm captured Sai'an City was Loulan. Ye Lingyu went to Loulan at this time, I am afraid that he wanted to report the news, he was really chivalrous.
The city lord watched coldly from the sidelines, and snorted disdainfully: "Heh, attack Loulan? Is the wind going to unify the border fortress after beating Loulan? Is it still going to attack the Heavenly Sage Empire, is it still going to dominate the continent? When you say that you are going to attack Loulan, do you really believe it? The wind has been hidden in the desert, and there has been no conflict with the nearby city-states for decades, how can it suddenly make a move." You kid is afraid that he caught a little thief from the side of the road, so he spread rumors here, in order to avenge the revenge of the Dan meeting. ”
At the Dan meeting, everyone targeted Ye Lingyu, so now Ye Lingyu casually made up a reason to intimidate everyone, and this reason made sense.
At this time, many family owners also calmed down, found chairs to sit down, and accompanied the city lord.
"Haha, hairy boy, the vindictive spirit is quite strong, I'm afraid it's a lack of education. "Someone was sneering on the side.
"I thought that I had the ability to make alchemy, so I was smug and didn't take the world's heroes in my eyes, this kind of person, something. ”
"Haha, you all have the same idea as me, it's rare, come, do one. I said at the Dan meeting before that this kind of stinky boy is not worthy of being a Dan master because he has no Dan teacher character, and now I want to say that he is not a thing at all, hahaha. ”
Ye Lingyu turned a blind eye to that open face, and he also turned a deaf ear to the harsh words. Just stood quietly in the middle of the field, waiting.
"Master Situ, the time is about the same. Ye Lingyu said.
Most of the servants were ordinary people, and they rushed to the east gate with their foot strength, and the time was almost just right, and it would be too late if it was too late.
Situ Rang nodded, although the things were not finished, some important things had already been taken, and other things were dispensable.
"Lord Situ, you have thought clearly, if this kid is talking nonsense, then your Situ family has lost face this time. The city lord squinted slightly, and raised his glass from afar.
Situ Rang could only smile hehehe: "Everyone, the old man will go with Brother Ye, what the situation is, you will know after a try." Whether you want to stay here or not, I don't care, please feel free. ”
Then he was ready to leave.
But at this time, the city lord suddenly got up and blocked the way. Holding a wine glass in his hand, he looked so chic and comfortable: "Lord Situ, there's no need." ”
As he spoke, he took out a palm-sized compass from the Qiankun ring, and the compass was engraved with an eastern character.
"The name of this thing is 'Beacon Compass', which is used for communication, and whether the city gate has fallen is known by asking. He held the tray in one hand and smiled.
He could have taken out the compass and asked about the situation, but he waited until this time. He wanted to teach Situ a lesson, he didn't believe in himself as a city lord, but he believed in a boy who didn't know his origin, since this was the case, then after he put everything away, he would give him a loud slap in public.
Several people who were in the company of the city lord were all smiling, and said calmly: "Lord Situ, you are just too anxious. If someone had attacked the four gates, there would have been news of it, and since there was no news, it meant that the four gates were safe and sound, and the wind had not come. ”
The city lord shook his head with a smile, injected a spiritual power into the compass, and then said with a slight smile: "East Gate, report the situation!"
Everyone was still waiting to see the joke, but after a while, the compass didn't react at all......
"East Gate Guard, report the situation!" the city lord raised his voice.
The compass was still silent, and there was a dead silence in the field.
The city lord was also a little anxious, and took out three other compasses: "The guard of the West Gate will report the situation...... The South Gate Keeper will report on the situation...... The North Gate Keeper will report the situation ......"
There is no response, as is the case with all four compasses......
The landlord was stunned, as were the people who were with him and the others who still lived here.
At this moment, Shi Die and Shi Yan entered through the side door.
"Childe, my sister and I have collected our things, when are we leaving?"
Ye Lingyu bowed slightly: "Now." ”
"Wait, wait. Someone hurriedly went up and stopped Shiyan and Shidie, "Both, what's the situation?"
Shidie looked around to the side, a little timid: "Everyone...... Why are you still here? The gates are falling, and the wind is about to enter the city. ”
"Is that true?" The uneasiness that had long been dormant was brewing in the dark.
"Didn't Childe come over to tell you?" Shi Die looked at everyone, and then at Ye Lingyu.
Ye Lingyu shrugged his shoulders and said that he had already said it.
These few words were undoubtedly a thunderbolt in the clear sky, which made everyone's head dizzy.
Ye Lingyu said alone, they could not believe it, but now even Shidie said so. Shidie is a member of the Nangong family, and her status is noble, so it is naturally impossible to be honest.
Someone remembered something at this time, went up to rummage through the man's Qiankun ring on the ground, and found a token from inside, on which the word "crazy" was written!
The token of the tempest, this person is not a thief in the mouth of the city lord at all, he is indeed a person of the tempest!
A gloomy atmosphere gradually enveloped the crowd.
When Ye Lingyu first informed them, there was still half an hour to go, but after such a delay in watching the play, it was a little too late for them to rush home now.
"I'm sorry, Lord Situ, I'll go first. Someone confessed, turned and walked out the door.
"My lord atoned for his sins and went first. ”
"Goodbye when you're free......"
Those guests who came to visit poured out of the door, looking at the posture, all of them used their strength to eat, but in a few breaths, there was not a single figure to be seen. Even the city lord and those few sneering people were missing at this moment.
With the situation of those people, if they want to escape with their families, they don't know if it's too late.
But this is not something that Ye Lingyu needs to worry about, he said hello to Situ Rang, and called the two sisters of Shidie and walked towards the gate.
The wind has the least power placed at the east gate, and with Jiang Taixuan, the fifth layer of the Xuan Rank, to lead the team, it shouldn't be too difficult to break out. In addition to Jiang Taixuan, the Situ family also has several Xuanjie, and if they want to escort the team to other city-states safely, they should have enough people.
Everyone walked to the front yard and saw that everyone had gathered here, those subordinates and their families, together there were no less than fifty people, in addition, the people of the Feiyu Pavilion were actually here.
The three elders of the Jade Pavilion led people to salute Ye Lingyu from afar, they obviously also listened to Ye Lingyu's words and prepared in advance.
"This is the best, there are also many masters in the Feiyu Pavilion, and the two families are united, so it shouldn't be a problem to break through. Situ Rang sighed with relief, and then prepared to lead the team towards the east gate, but at this moment, a maid suddenly ran in a panic.
"Master, no, I can't find Miss anywhere. ”
Situ Rang was stunned at first, and then his eyes showed panic: "I can't find Ruoning, what's the matter?"
Ruoning is Situ Rang's heart, and his relatives are the only ones left with this granddaughter. For him, Ruo Ning is more precious than everything, how can he just lose the most valuable thing.
"Master......" The maid was trembling all over, "We have searched the entire Situ Mansion, but we haven't seen the young lady." ”
"How could this be! She was still there at the banquet just now, how could she not find it?" Situ Rang shouted anxiously.
Now every second counts, but at this time, I can't find Ruoning. If you wait for the wind to attack you, if you condense a weak woman, where will there be a chance to escape. Besides, everyone knows who the people are in the wind, and if they fall into their hands, what the result will be, they don't need to think about it.
"Where's the doorman?" shouted Situ Rang.
I saw two big men running over: "Master." ”
"It's you two guarding the door tonight?"
"Yes. ”
"Did you see Miss go out?"
"Back to the master, no. The two big men bowed their heads and said in a deep voice.
At this juncture, they have no reason to lie, they say this, it means that Ruo Ning has not left the house. But I didn't leave the house, but I couldn't find it.
"Have you looked for the back mountain?" Ye Lingyu suddenly asked the maid next to him.
The maid shook her head.
Ye Lingyu understood it at the moment, and gave it to Situ Rang: "Lord Situ, it's too late, you take someone away, and I'll go find someone." ”
"Ye Shaoxia, do you know where Ruoning is?" Situ Rang also knew that it was too late, and it was impossible to delay everyone here, so he could only ask a little earnestly.
"Something. ”
"So...... There is Lao Ye Shaoxia. I'll go to the Burial Bone Plain when I get out of the city, and if you find Ruoning, you'll come and make peace with us. ”
In this situation, he had no other way but to believe in Ye Lingyu. No longer hesitating, the commander of the large army, rushed towards the east gate.
"Childe, then we will go out of the city and wait for you first, you must come quickly. ”
"Deng, for the sake of your merit in listening to the enemy's situation this time, I won't care about you, you must not die here. ”
"Crow's beak. Ye Lingyu snorted.
"Old Ye, am I with you?" asked Mo Fei.
"No, you go out of the city with them first, and I'll be there later. ”
Ruo Ning didn't leave Situ Mansion, and he couldn't find anyone, all Ye Lingyu could think of was the back mountain.
But on this big night, there are no lights on the mountain, what is that stupid girl doing on the mountain.
I didn't think too much, the wind was under my feet, and my body turned into a phantom and disappeared in place.
......
On the back mountain, on the bank of the stream where Ye Lingyu originally alchemized, Ruo Ning sat alone on the rock. With his hands behind his back and his feet swinging in the stream, the murmuring of the water looks a little biting at night.
The moon was shining in the sky, and the moonlight poured from the sky, illuminating her skin a little pale, and two tear stains hung on her cheeks.
She rarely came to the back mountain before, and she liked to run to the back mountain, which was also after Ye Lingyu arrived at Situ Mansion. Now that the Dan meeting has passed, no one will come up to refine the Dan in the future, and the mountain will probably return to Xiao Se again.
She didn't know why she came to the back mountain, she only remembered that she was squatting in the corner, and her tears couldn't be stopped, but she flowed, and when she reacted, she was already here.
The breeze blew, and most of the flowers and leaves upstream were blown off, and the petals flowed down the stream to her feet, touching her ankles as if they were being caressed by a warm hand.
The night breeze was slightly cool, she tightened her clothes, covered her knees with a fiery red skirt, and then took out a jade box and spread it on her legs.
The jade box opened, and the ghost grass lay quietly in it, the leaves glowing, still shining in the moonlight.
She took out the ghost grass, slightly distracted. stared at it for a long time, the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, but with an indissolvable sadness, a trace of warmth gushed out uncontrollably from the corners of his eyes, and the warmth was close to his cheeks and slowly flowed down.
As if she had made up her mind, she raised the ghost grass and threw it into the stream. But at this moment, there was a sudden sound of footsteps behind me.
