Chapter Eighty-Three: Into the City
Bai Lu and Lady Mo received the order and hurriedly went to order Yuan Xing.
When the news reached Shen Yue's ears, his physical strength was already a little exhausted, and this time he came prepared, so the guards he brought were all among the best masters, and in the face of these arrows with little attack power, he would naturally not be injured.
But in this situation, these arrows seem to have accumulated countless in the mechanism, allowing them to dodge one stubble after another.
If this continues, not to mention that they will be killed by arrows, they will die of exhaustion first......
"Childe, Childe-"
Hearing Yuan Xing's voice, Shen Youden was distracted for a moment, and a sharp cold light crossed his cheek, and a bloody mark appeared on his face.
Seeing this scene, Yuan Xing couldn't help but feel a lot of regret in his heart, since he beat him and followed Gongzi's side, he had never seen blood on Gongzi's body......
"Is something wrong with the princess?"
Shen Yue held the long sword, split the oncoming arrows twice, leaving a gap to talk to Yuan Xing, listening to his eager question, Yuan Xing remembered what Princess Fengning had told him.
Yuan Xing hurriedly said: "No, no, no, it was the princess who asked the slave to inform the son, so that you can bring some guards to rush into the city quickly......"
There is no need to listen to him finish speaking, in a moment, Shen Yue has already understood the meaning of Yuan Xing's words, Ning Ning is right, now he is going to break this formation, not to exhaust his physical strength.
At that moment, Shen Yue turned around with his sword, dodging the rain of arrows that came from the sky, and approaching the city on the other.
Sure enough, the closer you get to the city, the fewer arrows you get, and the impact of the rain of arrows will be reduced.
Compared to Fang Cai, it is indeed a lot easier.
Yuan Xing was extremely happy to see it, and shouted at the guards who were physically exhausted, "Quick! Enter the city with Childe! ”
Seeing that everyone had reached a safe area, Sheng Changning's heart never relaxed.
It's still so difficult to enter the city, but after entering Fufeng City, the shopkeeper of the inn once said that people who have gone in and come out have inexplicably died at home, and there are ...... inside
Could it be that there is some kind of biogas poison that can't be done?
Sheng Changning thought, there were already cheers in front of her, and she couldn't help but speed up her steps to catch up, but when she saw what was under her feet, she was stunned again.
……
Shen Yue, who entered the city first, searched for it, only to find that the mechanism that controlled the rain of arrows was installed in a conspicuous position on the city wall.
"It seems that this Fufeng City has changed color by people like this, and someone deliberately did it."
Sheng Changning stepped forward to look at the delicate iron piece, such a placement of mechanisms, if it is not artificial, it is difficult to be convincing.
"Princess Fengning, Childe, let's go down quickly, it should be more than half of the hour now, and it will come soon in the middle of the night, if there is a strong wind, it will affect the city wall."
Yuan Xing looked at the sky and couldn't help but persuade worriedly.
"There's no hurry."
Sheng Changning called people, Bai Lu took out a bag from his sleeve and brought it to her, and when Sheng Changning opened it, what was in the bag was a green blade of grass.
Shen Yue felt that this grass was a little familiar, and his mind moved, and he blurted out and asked, "This is Silu grass?" ”
Sheng Changning didn't expect him to recognize it, she bowed her head lightly and said, "Yes, eating the leaves of Silu grass can cure all kinds of poisons." Take it first, just in case there is any unknown poison gas in this city. ”
Just now, after Shen Yue led the people into the city, she found these Silu grasses a few miles outside the city.
She could know about the ancient spirit grass of Silu Grass because she used to like to read ancient books. It is recorded in the book that this grass grows in the most poisonous places and is good at eating human blood.
It seems to be a poisonous and dangerous herb, but from the leaves to the rhizome, it is a life-saving treasure, and most people in the world can't ask for it.
However, what made her a little strange was that dozens of miles away from Fufeng City, there was no grass, and Silu grass, a delicate and extremely picky herb with a growing environment, could take root and sprout here alone.
Thinking of this, Sheng Changning's face became slightly solemn, Silucao usually grows in the ancient battlefield where blood and bones are buried, and now it comes out in this barren place where insects and birds can't reach it, and it is still born so well.
If it weren't for the fact that someone often irrigated it with human blood, or if there was an ordinary spread of poisonous gas here, the appearance of these two in Fufeng City would not be a good thing.
After listening to Sheng Changning's explanation, everyone did not doubt him, and they all ate Silu grass, it was not early, so they had to get off the city wall quickly and find a place to live.
Sheng Changning finally glanced outside the city, standing on the high city wall, although he could see far away from the height, but at this time, he could only see an endless dark night, and there seemed to be floating in the air the impetuous aura left behind after Shen Yue led people to break through the arrow array.
"Don't worry."
Shen Yue hesitated, but still stretched out his hand, gently tugged on Sheng Changning's sleeve, and said in a low voice, "With me here, I will definitely protect you." ”
He was so close, the warm breath seemed to be close at hand, and Sheng Changning's body didn't feel frozen. After a long while, Bai Lu, who had already gone down the city wall, turned around and looked for her, "Princess, princess, where are you?" ”
Sheng Changning came back to her senses in a daze, and caught a glimpse of Shen Yue pulling her big sleeve, she couldn't help but use some force to pull it back in a panic, and the next moment, she only heard the tearing sound of the brocade silk suddenly sounded.
Sheng Changning: "......"
Bai Lu's voice was getting closer and closer, Sheng Changning didn't care about what to say to him, let alone worrying about the damage of her clothes with him, she hurried down the stone stairs of the city wall in a few steps, and didn't forget to respond to Bai Lu: "I'm here ......"
Seeing her fleeing in the wilderness, Shen Yue bent the corners of his lips in a good mood, and he lowered his head slightly and laughed lowly.
Sure enough, no matter how many times he does it all over again, he is the only person who can see Ning Ning's gaffe.
Sheng Changmu has never been, and Shen Linzhi has never been.
……
Fufeng City was really as the people at the inn said, how glorious and lively it used to be.
Walking through the streets and alleys, looking at these broken shop flags, dusty and moldy tables and chairs, just looking at it is like being in the glory days.
Sheng Changning stopped in front of the door of an inn, the plaque on it had fallen to the ground, stained with dust, and he couldn't see the words on it.
Seeing her stop, Shen Yue also noticed that the shops or ordinary people's residences in these four places were all wide open, obviously because the people in the city were in too much hurry when they left.
Only this inn has doors and windows tightly closed, as if there are still people living in it.
Frowning, Sheng Changning raised his hand and tried to gently push the faded door, but unexpectedly failed to push it open.
This door is locked from the inside.
