Chapter 610: The City Gate Falls
Chi Wan glanced at him coldly, not knowing what was going on, the housekeeper felt a chill in his back inexplicably, and he didn't dare to say anything.
It's strange, he has seen a lot of people, and he can be regarded as having some knowledge, but he hasn't felt that a woman is terrible like now. Where did the momentum of that moment just come from?
Chi Wan ignored him, patted Yan Xi's hand comfortingly, and then, she looked at the city lord and sneered sarcastically, "I often hear people say that you are a wise manager, but when you see it today, you are also mediocre and incompetent. ”
The city lord had already turned around, and when he heard this, he was immediately furious, "You dare to slander this city lord? ”
Chi Wan deliberately said something even more ugly, just to stimulate the city lord, "Whether it's slander or loyalty, don't you know yourself?" ”
At this time, the subordinate had already prepared the rope, and when he saw this, he didn't know whether to continue to arrest people, so he was at a loss.
The city lord had a gloomy face, drank his subordinates, and slowly paced down from above, his eyes staring at Chi Wan tightly, his eyes were cold, "You are not small, say, who sent you?" ”
The corners of Chi Wan's mouth were hooked, but there was no smile in her eyes, "No one sent me over." ”
This is the truth, but the city lord still can't believe it, "Who taught you these words, hurry up and summon them truthfully!" ”
Chi Wan was not in a hurry, but instead found a place to sit down at random, "City Lord, you must have not been out of this city for a long time, right?" ”
A wise manager will never rest on his laurels. Chi Wan's words were full of mockery, although the city lord was not a particularly pursuer, he was still more concerned about the affairs of the territory, and his words were tantamount to challenging his majesty as the city lord.
"Bold, how dare you speculate on the itinerary of this city lord without authorization!" At this time, the city lord was really angry.
Yan Xi was frightened again, and pulled Chi Wan's sleeve in a panic, "Sister, let's go, the city lord looks really angry." ”
"Don't be afraid, brother, aren't you going to save the people of the Northland? We're just gone, and they're really finished. Ji Wan patted the back of Yan Xi's hand soothingly.
Yan Xi's face was panicked, but he was thinking in his heart, what did the people in the north have to do with him, he wanted everyone to die. In this world, there are no good people. His gaze couldn't help but pause when he touched Ji Wan's face, she was an exception.
It's a pity that he didn't meet her sooner, but it's too late to say this now. Everything he does, he is destined to stand on the opposite side of the other party.
"That'...... That, I listen to my sister. Yan Xi was like a little white rabbit, and said as thin as a mosquito, and Chi Wan's heart melted when he heard it.
Seeing that Chi Wan was under his nose, not only did he tremble, but also spoke as if no one was around, the city lord only felt that his blood was surging, and he clutched his chest and gasped for breath for a while before he eased up, these two people didn't take him seriously.
"What are you doing?" The city lord grinded his back molars gloomily, only feeling that if he didn't severely punish these two people, it would be difficult to eliminate the hatred in his heart.
Chi Wan didn't seem to feel the other party's gnashing of teeth at all, "City Lord, my brother and I escaped all the way, and we don't have much time to speculate about your itinerary, so you don't have to worry, it's just that if you leave the city and go to the Northland." will know that we are not lying. ”
"How?" The city lord raised his eyebrows indifferently.
Since you are here to ask for help and warn, there will naturally be some evidence, otherwise, how can the lord of a city believe you.
Chi Wan pondered for a moment, "We don't have evidence on us, because that drug will mutate after use, so we didn't get it, but there are many such people in the Northland." ”
She paused for a moment, and when she saw that the city lord was listening, she continued, "After these people take medicine, their bodies will become different from ordinary people, and you can know it at a glance. A lot of them will find a way to hide this. ”
Hearing this, the city lord suddenly froze.
"You mean, some people wear gauze hats, don't they?" When he said this, his voice was tinged with eagerness.
"It's not necessarily a gauze hat, there are all kinds of things, in short, it's very different from ordinary people."
The lord sat in his chair and did not speak for a long time. Strange people, Northland, these two pieces of information are enough for him to think of many things.
Yesterday, he had just returned from the Northlands. Of course, he didn't go to the Northland, but he just passed by there, and at that time he felt that something was wrong, the Northland used to be a barren land, but then it developed, and it was very fast, and it was more prosperous than the city under his name.
But he heard that day that the Northland is now like a pool of stagnant water, and he can't see the prosperity of the past at all.
What the hell is going on, is something really going on?
After realizing this, the city lord's face couldn't help but become solemn, if it was really as these two people said, then they were indeed in trouble when they came to the city.
When Chi Wan saw the appearance of the city lord, she knew that he had believed it, and quietly breathed a sigh of relief.
She was afraid that the city lord would not believe it. They didn't have much time to delay, thinking of this, Chi Wan arched her hand and said cautiously, "Please also ask the city lord to take measures as soon as possible." ”
The city lord wrinkled his brows, and he didn't have time to care about Chi Wan and them at this time, so he hurriedly called someone over and gave several orders one after another.
At the gate of the city, an urgent order was passed down, "The lord of the city has an order, there is an urgent report, from now on, the whole city is on alert, but anyone who enters and leaves the city gate must be strictly controlled." ”
When the soldiers defending the city heard this inexplicable order, they were all confused and a little confused.
They pushed each other and pushed out a man of high rank, who straightened his face and asked in place of the others, "What does this mean, the city is peaceful now, and nothing major has happened, why is there martial law?" ”
Because of the urgency of time, the city lord did not tell them the reason, and for a while, the person who conveyed the order could not say why, but just patted the guard on the shoulder, so he said in a mysterious manner, "This is the meaning of the city lord, we can only do it." ”
The guard pursed his lips, which meant that the above was bluffing.
After the others left, the soldiers gathered around and asked, "General, what's the matter?" "They are the ones who defend the city, and they have not found anything, and this order is simply inexplicable.
The guard general thought for a while, "It is estimated that the city lord had a whim, and he wants to rectify it, it's not a big deal." ”
"Then how many people do we want to add to our evening shift?" A soldier asked tentatively. His wife is going to give birth, and he can't be on duty today, so he is afraid that the guards will arrange him to be on duty.
"You kid, don't think I don't know what you're thinking, go back, don't let you be on duty." The guard glare at him with feigned anger.
Hearing this, the soldier was overjoyed, "Thank you for your understanding." ”
Seeing that the other party was about to jump up happily, the guard waved his hand without looking, and at this time he didn't know that a catastrophe was coming.
Lincheng has not experienced war for several years, the defense is very careless, the soldiers are lax, the weapons are old, and they are thrown everywhere. The guard took a look at it on a whim, and his brow couldn't help but furrow.
This situation is not good, let the city lord see it, he will only think that he is not managing it well, and after today, he still has to grasp this aspect.
The guard thought like this, and saw that it was not early, and there was still a wife waiting for him at home, so he didn't delay any longer, turned around and left in a hurry.
It was night, all the people in the city fell asleep, only the husband who played the watch, still pulling his throat to tell the time, the sound of the gong spread far away, adding a bit of popularity to the quiet night.
On the city gate, there were only three or four soldiers on duty, and each soldier looked sleepy, rubbing his eyes constantly, thinking that it would be dawn soon, and he would go back to rest and make up for sleep when it was dawn.
When everyone didn't notice it, on the horizon in the distance, a group of people who couldn't see their faces appeared.
The group of people dressed in black and wearing black gauze hats, blended in with the dark night, gradually approaching the city gate, the sound from far and near, originally just some sounds of the rope, as they approached, it became clearer and clearer.
The soldier standing on the city gate and looking into the distance, he was already sleepy, and after seeing this scene, his eyes widened suddenly, my mother, he read it right, what is the approaching black press?
The soldier rubbed his eyes again, and this time he saw clearly, it was a person, a person who was moving quickly. God, these people are too fast, they were so far away just now, and they were in front of them in the blink of an eye.
He was stunned for a second, and then shouted heartbreakingly, "Enemy attack, enemy attack, fucking get up for me, the enemy is coming to attack the city!" ”
This sound pierced the dark night sky, and the calm city tower suddenly became chaotic.
It was as if they had just woken up from their sleep, and the armor on those soldiers was crooked, and they couldn't care so much about it at this time, and they all shouted in panic, "Where, ah, no, everyone hurry up and take the weapons and put away the city gate." ”
"How many people came, who were they, and where did the sentinel die?"
"Go and report to the city lord, go quickly."
For a time, there was chaos on the city tower.
The guard was woken up from his dream and ran out without even putting on his clothes, but he did not maintain a good balance on his feet, tripped his left leg and his right leg, and fell into the mud. He haphazardly ripped off his clothes and put them on, gathered the people, and urgently assigned tasks.
At this time, outside the city gate, the sound of the enemy hitting the city gate was already heard, and the movement was very loud.
Everyone looked at each other, who were they? Where did they get so much power?
"Go quickly, what are you still doing in a daze, if the city gate is lost, no one will survive." The roar of the guards brought back everyone's minds, yes, their families are still in the city, and once the city gate is lost, their families will definitely not be saved.
