"Who's Zhuzhu?"

Hiroshi Shikawa didn't know what Ying Jiu saw in front of the city gate.

"I thought she was dead. ”

Ying Jiu didn't directly answer Zichuan Hong's question, and the petite figure standing beside Ye Haotian with black hair and blue eyes appeared in front of him again.

"I didn't expect her to be alive. ”

"Could it be that she is also the peak of the Four Realms?" Zi Chuan Hiroshi said in surprise.

Ying Jiu glanced at Zichuan Hong, "If it's the peak of the Four Realms, do you think it's necessary for me to ask the commander for help?"

"How is it possible!" Zichuan Hong changed color and said, "Five Realms?!"

Ying Jiu squinted at Zichuan Hong and said, "Now you understand why I want them to live one more day, right? If there are no reinforcements, we can't stop them at all." Don't forget, we don't know the situation in the city, do you dare to say that there are no other human cultivators inside?"

Hiroshi Shikawa was silent.

From the heart, although the strength of the demon wizard can never be measured by height and appearance, Zi Chuanhong does not have any good impression of this ugly-looking, thin and withered black-robed wizard who looks only thirteen or fourteen years old. But after listening to Ying Jiu's words, I couldn't help but feel a trace of admiration in my heart. However, he quickly thought of a very serious problem, and couldn't help but exclaim, "But, what if the son of the demon god escapes?"

"Don't worry. ”

Ying Jiu narrowed his eyes slightly, smiled confidently, and said: "He can't run, only I know him best in this world, he is good at everything, but his heart is too soft." If I hadn't taken advantage of this back then, how could I have gained his trust? Today, I have already revealed the identity of the son of his demon god, and it must have spread throughout the city by now, do you think about it, what kind of scene will it be when the people of the whole city know that we are besieging the city to find him? How can he bear to watch thousands of innocent people die because of him?"

Hearing this, Zichuan Hong's eyes lit up, and his address to Ying Jiu also changed: "What does the military advisor mean that the son of the demon god is likely to be captured voluntarily for the people of Quicksand City?"

"Yes. Ying Jiu nodded: "It's not impossible, it's hard to say whether it's voluntary or not, but I can guarantee one thing, he will never leave the people in the city alone, as long as he waits for reinforcements, he wants to run again, but it's too late." ”

......

......

The rain became heavier and heavier, as if the water of the entire Tianhe River had been dumped out. From time to time, dazzling lightning streaked across the sky, and thunder roared endlessly.

In the small courtyard next to the arrow tower, the flickering light shone on her smooth and delicate little face like beaded porcelain, she looked at Ye Haotian's eyes full of expectation, and still said the conclusion that she had already thought in her heart: "Because he is afraid that you will escape." ”

"Afraid that I will escape?" Ye Haotian frowned, "No, if he was afraid that I would escape, he should have taken action as soon as he saw me, but now he is besieging me and not attacking, isn't it clear that he will create a chance for me to escape?"

"He knows you're not going to run away. Zhuzhu said again.

"What do you mean?"

"He said your identity as the son of the demon god just to let you know that the demon army is besieging the city because of you, and he wants to use the lives of the people of Quicksand City to blackmail you and force you to be captured. ”

Ye Haotian snorted disappreciably, "Hmph, am I that idiot?"

Zhuzhu looked up at Ye Haotian and didn't speak again, her face was extremely calm.

This expression Ye Haotian is too familiar, and whenever he avoids reality, Zhu Zhu will use such a look to remind him not to be hard-mouthed.

"Okay. ”

Without exception, Ye Haotian was defeated again.

"I'll admit that I haven't gotten better about my soft-heartedness. But the question is, is it necessary? You also know that even if we join forces, we may not be able to beat him, not to mention, he has that demon general and dozens of black-armored warriors by his side, and he can forcibly take me away. Besides, he's risking the siege so much, what if I really have the heart to run away?"

Zhu Zhu pursed her lips, hesitating whether to tell the truth, but finally couldn't hold back: "He didn't dare to grab you directly because he had injuries on his body." ”

"How do you know?" Ye Haotian blurted out.

"Because he and I are both ancient demon clans. Zhu Zhu replied.

Ye Haotian was stunned, then he realized that his question was a little redundant, and suddenly woke up: "If this is the case, then he deliberately delayed for a day, is he waiting for reinforcements?"

"So, let's go. Zhuzhu took Ye Haotian's hand, looked at him with an almost pleading gaze, and said softly: "Before the reinforcements arrive, leave here." ”

Ye Haotian was silent.

The room fell silent for a moment. The thunder in the sky gradually fell, and the lightning that lit up from time to time was also obscured by the black clouds. Outside, the falling rain like a waterfall hit the windowsill, making a crackling sound, as if it had become the only sound in the world.

"I can't go. ”

The tranquility of the hut was broken again, Ye Haotian moved his lips with difficulty, looked at Zhuzhu, and said apologetically: "I can't watch the tens of thousands of people in the city die tragically at the hands of the demon army. I have to help them. ”

After listening to Ye Haotian's words, Zhuzhu's face became more and more pale, she bit her lip and asked, "How do you want to help?"

"Wait for reinforcements. Ye Haotian's face seemed to suddenly have a light, he grabbed Zhuzhu's weak shoulder, and said: "Xu Heihu has already released the letter eagle asking for help, as long as we can hold on for a few days, the reinforcements will arrive." By the way, there is also Su Ning'er, she is the county lord, I will go to her and ask her to write a letter for help to King Liang, isn't her brother who worships saints as a teacher also kills the demon army in the wasteland? Maybe he will come to the rescue soon. And her teacher, didn't you tell me that she secretly ran out of the teacher's gate, presumably those brothers and sisters who were looking for her were also on their way to the wasteland, what do you say?"

Zhuzhu looked at Ye Haotian quietly, looked at his passionate face, looked at his hopeful eyes, and the pain in his eyes became even stronger. She knew that these words were all excuses, and they were all excuses and reasons made by Ye Haotian to comfort herself and comfort her.

Quicksand City is deep in the desert, the location is remote, and the nearest city is more than 300 miles away from the surrounding area, and now that the demon army has invaded, it is difficult for each city to protect itself, how can there be extra troops to come to support? Take a step back, if there are really reinforcements, can the hundreds of defenders in the city alone withstand the Blood Skull Legion for a few days? I am afraid that the reinforcements will be broken before they reach the city.

As for letting Su Ning'er ask King Liang for help, it would be even more impossible, not to mention whether the letter for help could be sent to King Liang, even if it could, Rongshan City would have three thousand miles to say the least, and when King Liang's people arrived, Quicksand City would have already become a dead city.

"You're right. Zhu Zhu did not directly refute Ye Haotian, but said: "But, have you ever thought that the identity of your son of the demon god is known throughout the city, even if you want to help the people defend the city, no one agrees, in order to survive, they will hand you over to the demon army." ”

"No way. Ye Haotian said categorically: "That's the Blood Skull Legion, as long as you are not an idiot, you should understand, even if you hand me over, they will also slaughter the city." ”

"The people don't think so. Zhuzhu's voice became softer, but there was an unquestionable firmness in it, "Even if they know that the demon army will slaughter the city, they will deceive themselves and hand you over to the demon army with a fluke mentality." ”

"I don't believe it, they ......"

"I just want to ask you one thing. Zhu Zhu interrupted Ye Haotian and said, "If they really want to hand you over to the Demon Army, what will you do?"

Hearing this, Ye Haotian was stunned.
