When night fell, the Gobi Desert was pitch black, except for the occasional sound of the wind, and there was silence all around.

However, in the center of the Gobi Desert, in the Yangcheng, the fire is bright and the voices are boiling.

People poured into the streets to greet their King Yan.

For this strange ancient king outside the Saiwai, most of their concepts are still only stuck in what Kua Father told them the day before, full of mysterious background, and with incomprehensible power, they can actually defeat the Huang army in one fell swoop......

It's as if it really has divine powers......

Now that I have the opportunity to see this legendary King Yan with my own eyes, how can ordinary people miss it, all the people have poured into the streets, vying to see the army of King Yan who has entered the city domineeringly.

In fact, for the people of Yangcheng, their feelings for Lin Yuan's troops are very complicated, on the one hand, they are very afraid of the sudden soldiers, and they don't know how these strangers will treat them, on the other hand, they heard Lin Yuan's promise, promising to bring a happy and free life to the people of Yangcheng, which is not what they want......

It's like a cup of sweet poisoned wine...... Or a lobster that looks horrible but is actually delicious, no one knows what they're going to face in the end.

However, at least one thing is certain.

They are isolated.

If the city gate is not opened, then the other party can still easily overturn the simple walls of Yangcheng, then, what awaits them may only be the angry stone axes of the soldiers.

And if you take the initiative to surrender and sacrifice the city, then, at least, everyone's lives can be saved, as for the rest, it's better to live one day at a time.

This may be what most people think, in short, in the end, the people of Yang City gathered, they drove away the city lord guards near the city gate, opened the gate, and ushered in King Yan and their troops.

At this time, Lin Yuan was riding on the black rabbit horse, surrounded by many soldiers, and slowly entered the hinterland of Yangcheng.

Lin Yuan cautiously observed around, and at the same time thought silently in his heart:

Very good...... Peaceful occupation, no deaths, no killings, that's good!

Lin Yuan nodded with satisfaction as he looked around to confirm.

He needed a fortress from which to serve as a base, not a ruin.

"Report ......"

Suddenly, a fast horse galloped from the opposite side, and it was a member of the Sabah cavalry regiment. As soon as he entered Yang City, Lin Yuan sent three cavalry to rush towards the city lord's tent first.

It is an eternal law to capture the thief and capture the king first, and if you want to fully control the city, the first thing is to find their city lord, not to mention...... He had another important business to look for......

"Report to the King!" In the blink of an eye, the cavalry had already galloped in front of him, and after the cavalry bowed to Lin Yuan, he said quickly:

"The King...... We've searched all of the city lord's tent! There is no human figure, it is empty inside!! ”

Lin Yuan frowned and said:

"Empty? Did you look around? ”

"Back to the king! We've all been scouted around and there's no one ......."

Lin Yuan put away his smile, where did the city lord go?

Suddenly, a Yangcheng woman who had been leading the way in front turned her head and said to Lin Yuan:

"Are you looking for the city lord? When we gathered to open the city gate, it seemed that someone said that he ran along the east gate......"

Ran away?

Lin Yuan turned his head to look at the middle-aged woman, who was one of the people who took the lead in opening the city gate in the first place.

"May I ask your name ......?" Lin Yuan asked.

"The king, the grass people are nameless, the nobles give the surname snail, and many people call me the nut......"

"Oh, okay, Nut, can you tell me the direction they are running away?"

Nut nodded hurriedly, pointed to the east gate, and then detailed the route of the other party's escape.

Lin Yuan nodded slightly, glanced at the cana, and the latter immediately comprehended, turned around and called ten cavalrymen, took the lead in the direction pointed by the nut, and rushed in pursuit.

"Okay, then that's the only way to do it now......" Lin Yuan said slowly, he looked up at the city lord's tent not far in front of him, he had been invited in once as a guest before, it had only been a few days, he didn't expect that time had passed, Lin Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

"Let's go, let's go to the big tent and have a look......"

Lin Yuan ordered. Kuafu, who was standing on the side, scratched his head curiously and asked in a low voice:

"What's that...... Isn't it already said that there is nothing there, my lord? What are we going to do? It's better to find a place to set up camp quickly, something is going on...... I'll talk about it tomorrow......"

Lin Yuan ignored him and walked forward.

After a while, Hou Yi quietly attached himself to Kuafu's ear and said:

"King Yan naturally has his reason, you just obey the order, I have been with him for so long, I have never seen him miss ......"

Father Kua snorted and walked forward with the group.

The city lord's tent soon appeared in front of everyone's eyes, judging from the appearance, this big tent has not changed much from when Lin Yuan first entered that day, it is still sewn from high-grade cowhide, and the exterior is painted with paint that symbolizes white and noble, but when they lifted the curtain and walked in, they couldn't help but be surprised!

The tent was full of messy debris, as if someone had been rummaging through it, and many of the things that had been hanging on the walls before were gone.

"Someone ransacked this place?" Lin Yuan turned his head to the nut and asked.

The nut was also a little surprised, she looked left and right, and then said hesitantly:

"Hmm...... I don't know much about that...... However, since the lord of the city had fled, the poor people from the vicinity came to fetch something...... It's also possible......"

Lin Yuan waved his hand and commanded:

"Pass my order, before the sun rises tomorrow, all the stolen things will be returned in their original form, and I will not blame the past, and after the sun rises, anyone who is found to have stolen by me will be punished with a broken hand!!"

The Saba warriors who were surrounding immediately answered in a deep voice, and Nut was frightened by the roar of the warriors like a bell, and took a step back.

Lin Yuan straightened his face and said to the nut:

"Go out and tell the residents of Yangcheng what I just ordered, and be sure to emphasize that they only have one chance to repent for one night!"

"Yes! Yes...... Yes, yes! The nut understands ......"

The nut immediately nodded and rushed out of the door.

"King Yan, what are we going to do next?" Kuafu asked softly.

Lin Yuan didn't answer immediately, he slowly walked in the big tent, then picked out a chair from the ruins, sat on it, and said calmly:

"Wait a minute, I'll wait for someone ......"

"Huh?" The second monk of Kuafu was confused, his face was inexplicable, and Hou Yi seemed to have long been accustomed to Lin Yuan's style of doing things, he also stood calmly beside Lin Yuan and smiled at Kuafu.

As if to say it again, King Yan said let him wait, then wait, there must be a reason for him.

So, just like that, everyone sat in the tent, and the minutes and seconds passed,......

I don't know how long it took, but suddenly, there was a slight noise in a corner of the tent, as if something was knocking on the ground.

Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly, and he made a gesture, and Scar immediately rushed to the place where the sound came from with several Sabah warriors, and they kicked away the debris on the ground, and suddenly found that there was a wooden plank faintly on the ground, and under the plank, there seemed to be some passage.

"King! There seems to be a secret passage here! ”

Scar roared, and the warrior beside him immediately pulled out the weapon in his hand, and Hou Yi had already taken a bow and stood on Lin Yuan's side to be on guard.

"Open it!" Lin Yuan ordered.

A few Scar soldiers immediately lifted the planks on the ground, and then everyone took their weapons and looked inside, which was not a big sight, and Scar hurriedly shouted:

"Stop!! Everyone, stop!! It's your own people!! ”

As soon as Scar's words fell, he saw a pair of white hands stretched out from the secret passage on the ground, which were a pair of women's hands.

"God-send! You're here! Suffocate us......"

Miss Jiu Yao frowned and crawled out of the tunnel, she didn't even notice the highly guarded soldiers beside her, she just desperately shook off the dust on her body, for fear of soiling her face.

Women, whether they are strong or weak, love beauty, it is indeed their nature......

Behind Jiu Yao, a few short and thin people came out, they were those slaves in the Silver Lake Oasis, it turned out that Jiu Yao really went to Silver Lake first according to Lin Yuan's request, and then took the slaves to Yangcheng.

"Haha, Jiu Yao, I'm still worried, why haven't you shown up yet...... How did you end up here?? ”

Jiu Yao angrily hugged her arms and said:

"Humph!! Providential! I remember you! Next time, no matter what you say, I'm going to lead the troops to fight! I'm never going to do this again...... It's so ...... Alas......"

Lin Yuan walked unhurriedly to Jiu Yao's side, looked at the other party carefully, and couldn't help laughing.

"What are you laughing at?"

"Haha, I didn't expect that Miss Jiu Yao looks like this, it's really cute......"

"Nasty! Go to ...... Here you go, take it! ”

Jiu Yao sneered, took out a piece wrapped in layers of sheepskin from her arms, and handed it to Lin Yuan.

"...... this?" Lin Yuan held this thing and looked at Jiu Yao with surprise and joy.

"This should be what you are looking for...... I took these helpers, and I have been quietly following the city lord, and followed it for a whole day and a night, and then I heard the news of your siege, and it was all messed up here, and I suddenly found that the city lord ran to a warehouse tent before escaping, sneaky, so we followed, and found that he was holding this thing in his hand, and after he saw us, he immediately drilled into a tunnel prepared in the warehouse, and we followed it all the way to catch up, thanks to these Silver Lake people, if it weren't for them, There's no way we're going to grab this thing in a hole......"

"And what about the city master?" Hou Yi hurriedly asked.

"Uh...... We were patronizing and grabbing something, and we didn't pay attention, and he slipped out of nowhere...... There were many forks in the road in this cave, and we ourselves got lost, and then we ...... I don't know why it came out of here......"

"Three holes of cunning rabbits!" Lin Yuan concluded, he stretched out his hand and touched the sheepskin package he had taken from Jiu Yao, the contents seemed to have some weight.

He took a deep breath and said slowly:

"Forget it, we'll catch him another day! For now, let's see if this is what we're looking for......"

With that, Lin Yuan stretched out his hand and lifted the sheepskin bag layer by layer...... (To be continued.) )
