Yanjing City was surrounded by the Southern Legion, attacking day and night, the casualty rate on the city wall was amazing, but in less than two days, the soldiers defending the city had changed three batches.

It stands to reason that such a battle loss ratio would have caused the defenders in the city to collapse, but they were still holding on, and these northerners, after suffering huge casualties, were even more tenacious than at the beginning.

The reason is very simple.

They saw with their own eyes the brutality of the Hundred Battles Army, and those southerners were like crazy, their bodies were full of arrows, and they were still able to fight tenaciously, like ghosts among men.

What's even more terrifying is that when the battle was rising, it was like losing consciousness, biting off the neck of others with his teeth, and tearing off a piece of flesh, which happened more than once.

There are also various rumors that the people of the southern country used demon methods to create beast soldiers.

Once such a beast-like enemy army is allowed to invade the city, the people of the city will have no chance of survival, and the entire Yanjing will be a Jedi among adults.

Not everyone can afford to die.

But as a man, when his family is in the city, when he can still fight and defend his family and friends, the already brave northerners are naturally not so easy to defeat.

In the past two days, there are also residents in Yanjing City, who also spontaneously went to the city to guard, and everyone was afraid that there would be a tragedy behind the city slope.

Brutality, indeed, is a reputation.

This kind of reputation is quite useful in the face of cowards, but when faced with brave warriors, brutality can only provoke the opponent to resist without giving up.

The battle formation outside the city wall can still hold out, and the city wall is strong enough, and it is not so simple for the southern army to break the city.

But at this time, in the imperial city, something strange happened.

"Wait for me to go!"

The small lord of the country, Yelu Jienan, wearing a dark dragon robe, was being pulled off the dragon chariot by two people with swords, and the guards who were protecting him were already bleeding all over the ground, and their bodies were separated.

In the palace wall where the palace hall of the imperial city is connected to the harem, these dozen or so people wearing guard clothes suddenly attacked, and when others were caught off guard, they isolated Yelu Jienan.

"Who the hell are you waiting for!"

The lord of the small country was shocked when he saw that the previously strong guards were killed by these dozen people like chopping melons and vegetables, but he quickly calmed down.

He himself is not proficient in martial arts, and in the face of such premeditated masters, if he wants to resist, he can't do it, he can only delay time, and in the face of the dozen or so anti-thieves surrounding him, he pretends to be frightened and paralyzed.

And in the face of the question of the small lord, the guard at the head said in an indifferent tone:

"Don't panic, the lord of the country, we are the secret guards of the Seven Peerless Gates, since the alliance between the Witch Sect and the Seven Peerless Sects, I have been secretly ordered by the national teacher and the master of the sect to lurk in the palace and secretly protect the safety of the lord of the country.

These guards are all thieves from the southern country, who want to hold the lord of the country hostage, and we waited for a glimpse of the conspiracy before we showed up.

My Seven Peerless Masters know that Yanjing is dangerous, and they are bringing elites to support them, and they will arrive at Yanjing City in a few days, solving the danger here and protecting the safety of the lord.

The lord of the kingdom came with me and went to a safe place to take shelter from the sword soldiers. ”

At these words, Yelu Jienan looked confused, he blinked his eyes, and glanced at the corpses lying on the ground around him.

"Okay."

The little lord glanced at the blood-dripping knives in the hands of the dozen or so people, and then touched the ivory dagger hanging from his waist for decoration.

He was very sensible and did not choose to resist.

Say:

"If you say they're thieves, then they are. Zhang Chumen, Lone has also seen it, he is indeed a kind and credible person, since he has already made arrangements, it is inconvenient for Lone to refuse.

It's just that you are so violent that you hurt people and startle Lone's mind, which will make your hands and feet weak, and you can only continue to walk with Lone on your back.

It's hard for you. ”

"Nothing."

The man at the head squatted on the ground, let Yelu Jienan lie behind him, and carried him on his back.

The pace is still steady, a group of more than a dozen people, forming a strict formation, walking along the palace wall road, walking outward.

The man was lying on the man's shoulder, his eyes rolling around.

Of course, he knew that this Zhang Chu had bad intentions for holding him hostage, but he had the heart to shout for help, and he was worried that someone would fight and let him die in a mess.

The truth that a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

He still understands.

He needed a chance, and when his heart was in turmoil, he couldn't help but think that he was fortunate to let Ade send the daughters of the imperial family out of the city in advance.

Otherwise, as soon as today's events are launched, you will not be the only one who will suffer.

In the midst of this nonsense, these dozen or so people bypassed a corner, and in the distance was the side gate of the imperial city, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and there was no danger all the way, and it was very smooth.

But at this moment, a figure holding on to the wall and vomiting suddenly rushed in from outside the door, staggering and struggling, as if injured.

"Ade!"

Yelu Jienan was also stunned and exclaimed.

"Keep your head down!"

Ade, who vomited uncomfortably, only had time to shout.

Yelujie was so blessed that he immediately pulled out the dagger at his waist and stabbed it fiercely in the arm of the master who was carrying him, and as soon as the whole person broke free, he fell to the ground.

In the next moment, the figure in black fell from the sky and fell lightly into the crowd.

Yelu Jienan, who was lying on the ground, only saw a dozen afterimages, but the long sword in the man's hand flew out in an instant, and then dissipated in the next breath.

It's as if the scene just now was completely dazzling.

But...

"Poof"

The more than a dozen Seven Absolute Masters who had slashed the guards just now froze in place, and when the sword shadow returned to the sheath, everyone's heads were in unison for a moment, flying out of their necks, and blood was splashing everywhere.

More than a dozen masters fell to the ground like felled trees, blood flowing all over the ground.

Yelujie was dumbfounded.

He looked stupidly, and the master who had killed more than a dozen people with one sword turned around, wearing a strange Wuzhu mask under the black veil of the flying hat.

In the mask's sockets, there were a pair of indifferent eyes, looking him up and down.

There is scrutiny in the eyes.

When he saw the mask of Wu Zhu, a legend that circulated in the streets and alleys of the northern kingdom suddenly flashed into the heart of Yelu Jienan, and he exclaimed:

"You're a mountain ghost!"

Gongsun Yu didn't answer, just shook his head slightly, took a step out of the dozen headless corpses, and said without looking back:

"The knife just now is a bit bold."

After speaking, he held his sword and walked to the palace wall hut next to him.

Ade, whose face was pale, rushed up, lifted the lord of the country from the pool of blood, looked up and down, and was relieved when he didn't see the injury.

"Ade, how did you hang out with the mountain ghosts?"

Not only was Yelu Jienan not afraid, but showed youthful curiosity, he grabbed his companion's wrist and asked in a low voice:

"Did you have an adventure?"

"What an adventure, my lord."

Ade sighed, looked at the back of the mountain ghost, and whispered to the lord of the country:

"Isn't Your Majesty curious about who Her Royal Highness the eldest princess chooses? Now you see it with your own eyes. ”

"Huh?"

Yelujie's mouth was wide open enough to stuff an egg, and his heart was scorched by the news at this time.

My own sister is really worthy of being a strange woman in the North.

His hands are stained with countless northern blood, and he is still wanted by the northern court...

This is his brother-in-law?

After more than ten breaths, Ade called some palace people to come over and clean up the blood stains of the corpses on the ground.

And Yelu Jienan himself walked into the hut by the palace wall.

The mountain ghost was sitting in a chair, his eyes closed, waiting for him.

Seeing Yelu Jienan walk into the room, the mountain ghost ignored the young man's curious and somewhat frightened gaze, and he said straight to the point:

"I saved you because of Wan'er, you change your clothes and go with me."

"It's all called Wan'er."

The little lord pursed his lips and slandered in his heart.

is so intimate, this adult world is really chaotic.

His heart was a little sour.

My own sister was snatched away by other men, and I felt a little angry, but I heard Ade say that Sister and this mountain ghost got along very well, and the little country lord was a little relieved in his heart.

But when he heard that the mountain ghost asked him to leave, he shook his head.

"No, I'm not leaving."

The man said in a loud voice,

"I know that you will definitely move out of Sister Ah to press me again, but this time, I have a decision. I just heard from those people of the Seven Absolute Sect that Zhang Chu, the head of the Seven Absolute Sect, has come to relieve the siege with the elite.

I've seen that person, although he is smiling and kind, but he can get along so well with those old and cunning guys, and he is definitely not a good character to get along with.

Since he dared to come, he must be very sure of himself.

Since I can relieve the siege of Yanjing, then there will be no danger for me to stay here.

Although your martial arts skills are high, it will be very difficult to take such an eye-catching burden to me to rush out of the city, and if others don't say it, Zhang Chu and Zhao Lian will not give up.

No matter how much you can fight, you will have to suffer a lot in the face of the encirclement and interception of more than 100,000 soldiers.

And even if I escape and stay with my sister, it will also ruin my sister's hard-won quiet life and disturb everyone's peace.

I want to go.

But now is not the time.

I can't leave behind those soldiers and people who are still fighting to the death for Yanjing and the lord of the country.

Just go back and tell my sister.

Let her not worry about me and live well..."

Yelu Jienan glanced at the mountain ghost, he pursed his lips, and said:

"Mountain... Brother-in-law, my sister has worked hard in the first half of her life, and she finally found a home, please treat her well. You got married in a hurry, and I didn't know it, but now you just came. ”

The little lord pointed to the imperial city outside the window, and he said magnificently:

"In this imperial city, if you fancy something, you can take it yourself, and the right is my dowry for my sister."

Yelu Jienan's words were clear and clear, and there was confidence in his tone, which made the mountain ghost look at him differently, and now it seems that Wan'er praised her brother for being smart all day long, and it didn't seem to be boasting.

The young man in front of him, his eyes are smart, he is not panicked, and he really has the wind of a general.

The mountain ghost was silent for a few breaths, and then asked:

"You want to stay in Yanjing and entangle with murderers like Zhang Chuna? Do you know how difficult he is to deal with? ”

"I don't know, but I don't care."

Yelu Jienan shrugged his shoulders, this action was still learned by Xiao Tiena.

He grinned and said:

"But it's just another pleasure."

"How to deal with happiness before, how to deal with him now.

He wants to use the national strength of my northern country to achieve his goal, so before his goal is achieved, I, a small country master who is harmless to humans and animals, will be safe and sound.

Besides, I heard that brother-in-law, you and Shen Qiu have some contradictions with Zhang Chu, in other words, as long as you are still there, Zhang Chu's purpose will not be achieved.

As long as you don't lose, I won't lose. ”

The little lord smiled, and his face became serious, and he bowed down to the mountain ghost in front of him, and said:

"I don't know much about you, but if Sister believes that you are worthy of being entrusted for life, then I will also believe you. Brother-in-law, I handed over my sister to you and take care of her for me. ”

Mountain ghosts are not entangled.

The young man in front of him was logical and meticulous, and he couldn't refute what he said, indeed, he was sure that he could break out of Yanjing, but with Yelu Jienan, who didn't know martial arts, he was not completely sure.

In case this child unfortunately dies in the run, Yeluwan will not be able to explain.

Instead of trying to get lucky, it was better to be on the safe side and do what the boy said.

The mountain ghost whistled a strange whistle.

Qingluan flew across the sky and fell into the room, the crested eagle landed on the arm of the mountain ghost, and when he saw the mountain ghost pointing to the young man in front of him, Qingluan knew that the master wanted it to remember the appearance and figure of the person in front of him.

This is not difficult for the supernatural crested eagle.

"Qingluan flies to the foot of Xiangshan Mountain on the outskirts of Yanjing once a month, and the specific location is known to the little eunuch."

The mountain ghost stood up and said to the little lord:

"If you have something, contact us in time, and if you miss it, you will find the beggar gang for interrogation. There is still time now, write a letter and explain it to Wan'er, lest she say that I have not kept my promise.

Finally, you just said that in this imperial city, as long as I fancy something, I can take it away? ”

"Well, the dragon chair can be given to you, as long as you take it with you."

Faced with the question of the mountain ghost, the little country lord nodded, he seized the time to write a letter, and asked:

"What treasure does my brother-in-law have a crush on?"

"The dragon robe crown of the Great Chu Emperor, but it's still here?"

The mountain ghost asked.

Yelu Jienan raised his head suddenly, looked at the mountain ghost with strange eyes, and after a few breaths, he said:

"Here, there are several sets, all of which are very well preserved."

"But my brother-in-law wants this, could it be that the Great Chu royal family, and the bloodline? The descendants of the Fan family are going to regain the country? My sister, also on that person's side?

Well, interesting...

Do you want my help with this? ”
