Chapter 9: A Thunderbolt from the Sky

In a study room at the headquarters of the Yellow Emperor's family, Guo Changyi was furious when he heard the news of Guo Yixuan's escape, and sent a message to Nanyan, the city lord of Jinling City, to scold him. Nanyan didn't defend either, and listened to Guo Changyi's anger in his heart and cut off the message. He lit a cigar and took a deep breath, thinking that he really lost his wife and soldiers this time, not to mention his eyeliner when he died, and he also attracted a scolding, and next time this kind of thankless work, he would resolutely not accept it. But after thinking about it, why did Guo Changyi hold on to the son of a little Beijing City Lord, anyway, Guo Fengxiao had already been destroyed, and a stinky boy was still afraid of how much trouble he would rise? I'm afraid that he is a person who is narrow-minded to the extreme, and you should be more careful when dealing with him in the future. He got up slowly, walked to the windowsill, looked out the window, the beautiful scenery of Jinling City came into view, as well as the more distant sky and sky in the north, several cities in the north were in his hands, he smiled, unbridled and crazy.

Guo Changyi sat on the recliner and reorganized his thoughts, in addition to being disappointed in Nanyan's incompetence, he was also very puzzled that Guo Yixuan could escape from Nanyan's hands. Thinking of this, he hurriedly took out a communication seed and buried it in the soil of the flower pot, and suddenly a trumpet flower bloomed in front of him, and a deep and thick voice came from the opposite side: "What does the head of the family command?" "The finishing touches on your side have been completed?" Guo Changyi said. "Mission is almost complete, return to headquarters today," the voice said. "You have been in Meng Liangcheng for decades, and you will not be short of staying for a while, I expect that Guo Yixuan will definitely go home within a month, and trace his traces for me, if you find him, you will not be killed. The voice on the other side was silent for a moment, then replied, "Your subordinates obey." ”

Guo Yixuan and the shovel took a fast train and walked on the road to Meng Liangcheng. Along the way, there was an endless stream of vehicles dragging families and fleeing from the direction of Meng Liangcheng. When he stopped to rest, Guo Yixuan inquired about the news of Meng Liangcheng with the common people in the past, and the common people only knew that there were many blonde and blue-eyed soldiers wearing armor and holding machine guns to occupy Meng Liangcheng. Guo Yixuan turned around and discussed with the shovel: "I heard from the common people that those blonde soldiers with machine guns should be soldiers from the Hades Continent. If war breaks out, there are layers of city checkpoints in Beijing, and there are countless soldiers guarding it, not to mention that with his father in charge, Meng Liangcheng is the core of Beijing It is impossible for it to fall so quickly, and in the absence of war, Hades soldiers directly occupied Mengliang City. It sounds ridiculous. The old man stroked his beard and said, "There must be a reason for this, and those ordinary people don't know about it." Let's talk about it when we get to Mengliang City, but the road behind will be more and more difficult to walk. You must hide your identity and don't set yourself on fire. So he continued his journey north.

The closer they got to Meng Liangcheng, the more they could feel the biting cold, and with a distance of several hundred kilometers, their vehicles had already been checked several times by Hades' soldiers. The shovel said that they were ordinary people who went back to Mengliang City to visit relatives, and the Hades soldiers were not embarrassed and let them go. The heavy snow in the suburbs of Mengliangcheng is covered with layers of wheat fields, which still have not melted, and the roads are covered with snow, covered with crystal clear frost, and people can't help but think that they have entered a fairy tale world of ice and snow in a trance.

When they arrived at the gate of Mengliang City, Hades's soldiers were checked one by one. The driver of the express bus didn't want to make a fuss, so he left on the way back. The shovel felt the few remaining coins in his underwear pocket, and his flesh ached. Guo Yixuan looked at the city gate and saw a familiar figure, Ding Wang Er, the guardian of the courtyard, was standing at the city gate with Hades's soldiers to check the passing passengers, he wanted to come forward to greet and ask what was going on, but he was pulled by a shovel. "Acquaintance?" asked the shovel, glancing at the city gate.

"Yes, the second king of the family. I'm going to ask him what's going on?" the shovel pulled him to the other side of the city, and said as he went, "It's not safe here, let's go farther and find a way to enter the city." ”

After walking for more than an hour, I finally couldn't see the figure of the Hades soldiers. The old man with the shovel stopped and said, "Let's use the old way to enter the city from here." "You mean digging a tunnel?" Guo Yixuan said in surprise. "That's right, you still want to fly in without digging a tunnel?" After that, the old man with a shovel picked up the shovel, took a deep breath and held his breath, and suddenly the muscles of his two arms exploded, and the snow and water mixed with the soil flew and splashed everywhere under the shovel, and his digging action was like a machine, and the speed became faster and faster to form an inertia, Guo Yixuan couldn't see his arm swinging action clearly, only the silver glittering electric wheel was running rapidly, and soon a black tunnel appeared in front of Guo Yixuan's eyes, and the voice of the shovel came from inside: "Don't come in yet, wait for me to bring you food?" Guo Yixuan came back to his senses, thinking that this old ghost was not the creator of the world, and he didn't believe or say much if he was killed, so he jumped into the tunnel.

After more than an hour, a small dirt bag rose slightly on the street of Meng Liangcheng, and then the dirt bag grew bigger and bigger, and exploded with a bang, revealing the face of a sloppy old man. He crawled out of the pit with his hands on the ground, and Guo Yixuan followed closely behind and jumped out of the pit as well, at this time the two of them were disgraced and embarrassed. Guo Yixuan glanced at his embarrassed appearance, and was about to slap the dirt on Zhou's body with his hand, but was stopped by a shovel, he said: "These mud is the best disguise, you just disguise yourself as a beggar and go to your own house to inquire about the news, don't let people recognize you, don't forget that this is already the Longtan Tiger's Den, and if you are a little sloppy, your life will be lost." I'll go about my own business, and I'll be with you no more. You're done going back here and leaving the city through this hole. After hearing this, Guo Yixuan hurriedly said: "Old man, if you don't go back with me, my parents will thank you for your kindness to me very much." The shovel sighed and shook his head and said: "It's time for you, you still have fantasies, go home and take a look, kid, but you wish, and then leave here to live as an ordinary person."

Guo Yixuan walked alone in the familiar street, going door to door, the door was closed, and he didn't know if there were still people living inside. The prosperity of Mengliang City in the past has disappeared, and all that remains is the white terror that crisscrosses the city and the antique alleys. Several teams of Hades soldiers patrolled by from time to time, and Guo Yixuan evaded the eyes and ears of the soldiers with an instant. There is still a street away from home, and Guo Yixuan's mood at this time cannot be expressed in words. Excitement, excitement, grievance, and sadness are intertwined, and when he thinks of pushing the door and going home, he can see his father's kind smile, and when he hears his mother's gentle care, Guo Yixuan can't help but flash again and speed up the pace of going home. He didn't even cry when he entered the door, but told them that his son had grown up, but when he saw his own house, reality completely shattered his illusions, shattered his hopes, those emotions came to an abrupt end, and all that was left was a blank space in his brain. The once pavilions, birds and flowers have become a ruin, broken rubble, blackened bricks, a mess. Guo Yixuan mechanically walked up the scorched black steps, stepped into the ruins of what should have been the hall, and walked to the room that used to be his own, but now it has become a scorched earth. He came to the courtyard, the wooden stake that had been used to practice had been broken, lying on the ground desolately, the picture of the past lingered in front of him, he sweated like rain in front of the wooden stake, his father commented on the teachings behind him, and his mother held a fruit towel in the distance, shouting Guo Yixuan Don't be too tired, come over to rest and quench your thirst... Guo Yixuan finally couldn't suppress the emotions in his heart, lay back, tears burst out of his eyes, and cried loudly at the sky. The cry was heart-rending, and the liver and intestines were broken. He has really lost everything he holds dear, he has nothing left.

After a while, Guo Yixuan wiped away his tears, stood up, looked around, and found no corpses, and his mood gradually calmed down. Thinking that even if his home was destroyed, it didn't mean that his parents had died, so he continued to search around, hoping to find clues and bring a glimmer of hope. However, Guo Yixuan looked around and didn't find any valuable information, and when he was disheartened and about to leave, a bright color in the corner of his eye attracted his attention. A brown briefcase, crushed under the black wreckage, revealing a corner. He hurriedly ran to the front, used all his strength to remove the wreckage, and put the briefcase

Dig it out. Guo Yixuan held it in his hand, looked at it carefully, and immediately exclaimed, "This is the briefcase I snatched from that short and fat man during my first mission." He hurriedly opened it to watch, but it was already empty. Guo Yixuan thought to himself: "The courtyard of the house that once had layers of protection was destroyed, and it was gone. But it's incredible that this small briefcase can be invulnerable, without the slightest damage. So he looked at the corners of the briefcase, and finally found a peach-shaped rune at the bottom of the bag. This kind of rune, which can bless the defensive property of clothing armor, is very rare and rare, but it appears on a small briefcase, what a handicraft. However, who has the strength to do this, Guo Yixuan already has the answer in his heart, that is, the Athena family.

Just as Guo Yixuan was staring at the briefcase, thinking about various possibilities, a familiar and unfamiliar voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "Little master, there is a way in heaven for you not to go, and there is no door for hell for you to break into." ”
