Volume 6, the new pattern XXVII, a glimmer of life
"Lord, there are too many scouts under Chen He's command, and they are all very slippery, once they find out that something is wrong, they will help each other to escape, except at the beginning, the subordinates can also kill a few, and later, after they see their subordinates, they run away directly, and many times, the subordinates can't even find an enemy!" Shi Guangxian looked at Li Jiaming and said very ashamedly, after all, with his ability, he failed to complete Li Jiaming's task, which was very shameless.
"Well, General Shi has worked hard, this Chen He does have some doorways!" Although Li Jiaming sent his own scouts, he knew better that the elite scouts brought by Wu Jianzhong lost nearly half of them in a few days, but the results were not ideal.
"General Li, the Lord please!" When Li Jiaming was appeasing Shi Guangxian, Wu Jianzhong's guards came to the door to give an order.
Li Jiaming glanced at the sky, and didn't know what Wu Jianzhong was looking for at this time, but he still hurriedly followed the guards to Wu Jianzhong's mansion.
"I've seen General Wu, I don't know if you're in such a hurry to find me, but what's the urgent military situation?" Li Jiaming looked at Wu Jianzhong, who was frowning deeply, and asked.
"No, what information is there from the scouts?" Wu Jianzhong shook his head and asked.
"The latest news, the other party's scouts seem to have received support, and began to suppress our scouts with all their might, and now the living space of our scouts has been compressed to less than five miles, if it weren't for the fear that our army would send a large army to encircle and suppress them, I am afraid that they would dare to kill under the city wall!" Li Jiaming looked at Wu Jianzhong and replied truthfully.
"Five miles!" Wu Jianzhong muttered lightly, and then said: "This general suddenly had a whim, and he felt a huge crisis looming over him, but he didn't know that the danger came from everywhere!" But now, it may have become clear that if the general's expectation is good, Chen He's army has all been dispatched to kill and come to Changhe City, but I don't know if he is coming for the general, or if he purely wants Chen He's army to gain a firm foothold and wants to take the lead! Wu Jianzhong opened his mouth to explain.
"No, Master Wu, Chen He has been guarding Taixu City for many days, and there has been no movement, why did he suddenly come to Changhe City, not to mention whether they can fight down, even if they are defeated, they who have just occupied Changhe City are very unfamiliar with the city, and they are about to face their attacks, where does Chen He have the confidence to be able to defend Changhe City!" Li Jiaming said with some shock, even a fool knows that at this time, it is the best policy to defend Taixu City, as the so-called movement is better than quiet, Chen He's best countermeasure is to defend Taixu City.
"Yes, theoretically, Chen He's defense of Taixu City is the most crucial, but if they know that the general is in Changhe City, then as long as they catch the general, this time the attack will be over!" Wu Jianzhong nodded and said.
"Master Wu, since you arrived in Changhe City, you have never left the mansion for half a step, except for a very few people, no one knows that you are here, and those who know that you are here are absolutely trustworthy!" Li Jiaming said again.
"Let's go, it's time to meet Xu Banxian!" Wu Jianzhong suddenly spoke, and then took Li Jiaming straight to Xu Banxian's residence, which was a wing room in Wu Jianzhong's mansion.
"How is Mr. Xu?" After Wu Jianzhong arrived at Xu Banxian's courtyard, he happened to see a doctor walking out of it, so he asked.
"This adult, the adult inside has almost recovered, as long as he does not use force during this time, he will be fully recovered in ten days and eight days, and he will not leave a little dark injury!" The doctor replied respectfully.
"Well, go ahead!" Wu Jianzhong nodded, let the doctor leave, and he took Li Jiaming directly into Xu Banxian's room, and before they could knock on the door, they heard Xu Banxian's voice coming: "The welcome bell is windless and automatic, the rhythm is clear, it must be a distinguished guest, but in this Changhe City, only Master Wu can be called a distinguished guest!" ”
"Hehe, Mr. Xu, when I came to visit Mr. Wu this time, I really had something to ask for, and I asked Mr. Wu to make a hexagram for me again, just now, I suddenly felt a huge danger looming, and I felt that the aura was oppressed a lot, I don't know what this means!" Wu Jianzhong smiled bitterly and said to Xu Banxian.
"Master Wu, now that I am in your house, if there is anything, just give an order!" Xu Banxian looked at Wu Jianzhong, and seemed to be a little angry and said, but after finishing speaking, he looked at Wu Jianzhong carefully, and then said: "The heavenly court is thundering, and the earth is covered with water!" This is the shape of the Great Tribulation! Master Wu, write a word! ”
When Wu Jianzhong heard this, the six of them pondered, then took a pen and wrote a virtual word in the palm of Xu Banxian's hand.
Xu Banxian looked at the imaginary words, and sighed helplessly: "Master Wu, from your face to your words, there is a hexagram in the sixty-four hexagrams that is said to be hung or not, whether the heaven and the earth are not, it is a fierce hexagram, and it can be said that it is certain death!" ”
"Xu Banxian, don't bewitch the crowd!" As soon as Li Jiaming heard Xu Banxian's words, he immediately shouted, the Emperor of the Divine Machine War is the commander of this battle, if he has something, there is no need to fight this battle, and the others promise to withdraw their troops immediately.
"Mr. Xu, since you can calculate this, please also ask Mr. to solve this hexagram for you!" Wu Jianzhong didn't think it at all, but looked at Xu Banxian and said respectfully.
"To be honest, Master Wu, I'm afraid I've been exposed to physiognomy, otherwise, I definitely wouldn't have written this word in the palm of my hand!" Xu Banxian sighed, looked at Wu Jianzhong and said.
"A little contact, I remember that it is recorded in the ancient books that the master is lucky in heaven and earth! Taoism has clouds, the avenue is fifty, the sky is forty-nine, and people escape one of them! If you are lucky enough to meet this escaped one, you only need to hand over your own life to the other party, and you can save your life! Wu Jianzhong said without concealment.
"That's it, that's it, two days later, there will be a glimmer of life in the northeast!" Wu Jianzhong waved his hand and said the method of cracking, then turned around and lay directly on the bed, no longer speaking.
And Wu Jianzhong just showed joy on his face, bowed respectfully to Wu Jianzhong's back and said: "I hurt Mr. Xu today, it is Wu Jianzhong's fault, Mr. Xu, please rest assured, avoid this catastrophe, Wu Jianzhong should be a teacher to Mr." In the next, the current retirement, please Mr. Xu to recuperate! ”
After finishing speaking, he took Li Jiaming out of Xu Banxian's room, and after Li Jiaming left, he said: "Master Wu, what are you doing here, he is just a Jianghu warlock, why are you so respectful to him!" ”
"Jiaming, there are so many hidden worlds in the world, Mr. Xu is a top physiognomy master, although I don't know how Chen He knew that Ben Jiang was here, but there is one thing Chen He is running for the future, this game is definitely the death of Ben Jiang, and he will definitely die! However, there is a ghost art in the phase master, as a high-ranking person, forcibly sign a master-apprentice fate with the phase master, and the gift of the disciple in this life can get the help of the top phase master, of course, the price that the phase master asks to pay, is a part of the permanent dissipation of the soul! For top physiognomy masters, this is a huge damage, and it can even shake their physiognomy ability! That's what I did! Wu Jianzhong explained lightly, but Li Jiaming's heart was surging, there is such a magical physiognomy in the world, no wonder Master Wu tried his best to recruit this, if he had the opportunity, he would also recruit a physiognomy master.
However, after Wu Jianzhong left with Li Jiaming, Xu Banxian, who originally turned his back and seemed to have been injured, opened his mouth and smiled, the phase master does represent the one who has escaped, but although he is also a phase master, but he is a grimace physiognomy master, his soul is devoured by grimaces day and night, and it has long been refined countless times, the damage to the soul is not even worth a devouring of grimaces, the most important thing is that he has now found his master, and his soul has sustenance, this kind of backlash can't hurt him at all, On the contrary, it caused a lot of damage to the grimace that had been suppressed.
As for why Xu Banxian wanted to save Wu Jianzhong, he naturally had his reasons, he knew that even if Wu Jianzhong died here, it might be beneficial to the current situation, but compared to the long-term situation, there was no benefit, so he decided to save Wu Jianzhong, gain his trust, and then wait for the opportunity to poison all the high-level of this army, and finally save Wu Jianzhong again, take him back to the Daosheng Temple, and finally carry out the goal of poisoning the hall master.
If all this goes smoothly, then the Daosheng Temple will immediately fall into chaos, and when the time comes, the army under Chen He will be able to drive straight in, like a bamboo, and finally uproot the Daosheng Temple, so a living Wu Jianzhong is more useful than a dead Wu Jianzhong.
As for whether Chen He would trouble Xu Banxian at that time, Xu Banxian believed that Chen He would not, because since he had chosen Neiying, what he could do was more meaningful than killing a Wu Jianzhong.
After getting the confusion, Wu Jianzhong ordered the whole city to be under martial law as soon as possible, forming a situation of loosening the outside and tightening the inside, and at the same time, the time passed little by little, and the scout battle outside was basically stable, because the scouts in Changhe City did not dare to go too far at all, and once they reached a certain distance, there was no chance to escape back.
After comprehensively suppressing the scouts of Changhe City, Chen He also arrived with the army, and easily entered the five miles range, and the army began to lay out around the city, and surrounded all the four city gates, in order to be on the safe side, Chen He ordered Huo Miao, Mu Yong, and Zuo Zucong to each bring 500,000 troops to block the three gates, and he himself took Meng He to guard the south gate!
Quietly, the night came, Duanmu Qiong, dressed in black, easily lurked under the city wall, and then took a slow breath, and then reached out and grabbed the gap in the bricks on the city wall, a little like a gecko, climbed the city wall dozens of meters high.
