Chapter 733: Sound East Strikes West
I didn't expect it.
After all, there are many people in Ouyang Huai's hands, and it is at this moment of crisis.
Gu Cheng'an struck the west, he may not be able to see it.
Now that he can see it, he will naturally not let him succeed, and it is reasonable to guard the east gate more strictly.
However, his people were all facing outside to guard, but they didn't expect Ling Tiancheng and Zhuang Siyan to come from behind.
The wind and sand were too big to hide their tracks.
Ling Tiancheng had been careful all the way, so he survived still far from the East City Gate.
He put Zhuang Siyan down and hid in a dark alley not far from the city gate: "You wait for me here, don't move, you know?" ”
At this time, Zhuang Siyan was extremely cooperative, with her current ability, she shouldn't even come along, but Ling Tiancheng didn't believe Sun Xi, and he didn't worry about leaving her there alone, so he came with her.
Zhuang Siyan didn't have to think about it, if he went out, it would be a vicious battle.
In the face of so many people, she is a drag to follow, so it is better to let him go alone.
Ling Tiancheng was quick with his hands and feet, and quickly arranged her, and said, "Second watch, I'll come back and take you away, don't leave this place before this." ”
Zhuang Siyan roughly calculated the time, it was still a few hours before the second watch, and he should have enough time.
But that's not the point of this statement.
If he can't come back for the second watch, then Zhuang Siyan will have to wait, and he will go wherever he wants.
These words came out, but Zhuang Siyan heard them.
She tugged at Ling Tiancheng's sleeve, pulled the person who was about to leave back, hooked her arm to his neck, and then pressed her lips to the corner of his lips.
The voice came into Ling Tiancheng's ears with this action: "I will always be here waiting for you to come back." ”
Ling Tiancheng's body stiffened visibly, and his gaze turned to her face, which immediately became as soft as water.
They rarely say goodbye like this, usually they leave in a hurry alone, and one person is uneasy and nostalgic.
There may be reluctance to think, but it has never been expressed.
Unexpectedly, at this moment, Zhuang Siyan would actually say such a thing to him, even though there was already chaos outside, Ling Tiancheng still felt warm and gentle in his heart, and a corner of his heart seemed to be carefully cared for, and he was offered warm water.
He gently shook Zhuang Siyan's hand and solemnly said "um".
Without further words, he turned around and walked out of the dark alley, without even looking back.
Not long after, Zhuang Siyan saw a commotion at the east city gate not far from her, and the soldiers guarding the city wall suddenly ran down, shouting, shouting, as if they were chasing something.
Zhuang Siyan leaned his back against the wall and listened carefully to the movement in front of him.
And here, she is unusually quiet, except for the sound of wind and sand, everything else seems to be separated from her by a world.
She knew that Ling Tiancheng would not lure people to her side no matter what, even if he was defeated in the end, he would not run to her side, so she would be safe.
In the past, Zhuang Siyan was always in the center of the bustle.
In such a fight and disorder, she usually rushes to kill in front, and the person hiding behind is the person she wants to protect.
But now that she thinks about it, it seems that the people she wants to protect have never been specific.
She has traveled from south to north and cooperated with many people, although there are secret guards around her, Zhuang Siyan has never been a person who sits back and waits for others to pay.
Whatever happens to them, they all face it together.
She didn't have the experience of being strictly guarded, even if she had been with her
Ye Yuanpei has never been together.
As soon as something happens to that guy, he can't wait to pull her out and pad her back.
However, in front of Ling Tiancheng, Zhuang Siyan seemed to be in this situation all the time.
Ling Tiancheng would subconsciously protect her, although it was counterproductive many times, such as the two of them coming out of Tian Hai and falling from a high altitude, if he hadn't been too careful and wrapped himself in a strip of cloth, maybe he wouldn't have suffered such an injury on his back.
However, Zhuang Siyan's heart was warm.
That person is for her, for protecting her, always and everywhere.
The sound outside was still ringing, mixed with the wind and sand, sometimes high and sometimes low, someone seemed to be injured, let out a terrible scream, and then there was no sound.
Zhuang Siyan glanced outside, the night sky was dark, and the city wall was just a black shadow.
The faint light of the wind lantern, like a pitiful little tossed by a demon, flickered in the air, but it was extinguished in a moment.
The more lively it was outside, the safer it meant that Ling Tiancheng was.
If he was really injured, those generals wouldn't have to be so lively.
Thinking about it, Zhuang Siyan put his mind at ease and stood concentrating on the wall, like a dedicated model, standing by the wall and practicing his standing posture.
Time passes very slowly in the eyes of those who wait, and the first minute is tormenting.
In the eyes of those who rush forward, it is fast.
The West City Gate had been almost attacked by Gu Cheng'an, and the fire broke out, almost burning half of Song'an City.
The people of the city fled in panic and had nowhere to go.
They can't go out of the city, every city pass is now tight, but if they don't go out, they will be burned here.
They were running around, crying and crying, and there was nothing they could do.
But not long ago, they were hiding behind their doors, mysteriously waiting for merchants from all over the world.
They knew what those people were doing, and they didn't report it to the officials, and they didn't feel any surprise, anyway, everyone had money to make.
Maybe there are some people in the middle who feel that it is inappropriate and report to the official, but those people are either cleaned up by the official or restrained.
Therefore, over the years, there are not many families in Song'an County who are truly innocent.
Maybe Gu Chengan already knew this, maybe he was forced to be helpless.
If he doesn't burn this fire, he won't be able to enter the city at all, even if Ouyang Huai deliberately exposes a flaw to him and lets him in, it will be a pit that has already been dug to bury him, which is different from his own entry into it.
He was ready to die himself.
As long as Ling Tiancheng can be rescued this time, he will be put in prison immediately when he goes back, and he will be beheaded immediately to fight for the people of Song'an County, and he is also willing.
Gu Chengan has that kind of momentum, so when he did these things, he didn't hesitate at all.
Although there are not many people he brings, they are all elites.
After nodding to the west gate, he left someone there to guard it, and he immediately led people to the north gate.
At this time, the north gate was already in chaos, because it was too close to the west gate, and the fire in the city had actually affected them.
But they haven't found a suitable way to deal with it, Gu Chengan's people have already arrived there.
This time, he didn't attack with fire, but directly built a ladder and climbed to the top of the city wall.
Of course, there are still guards on the city gates, but there are many fewer than before, and the rest are also panicked, and they have lost the ability to deal with them at all.
Gu Chengan's people were divided into two parts, one part climbed to the city wall, and the other part went to hit the city gate.
With little effort, they opened the north gate first.
The people of Ouyang Huai in the city were still busy fighting the fire, but Gu Chengan was not afraid of the fire and rushed in directly.
With Lao Lu's instructions in advance, he had roughly figured out the situation in Song'an County.
Now that you have entered the city, you will go directly to the market in the urban village.
Unfortunately, it was also affected by the fire, and most of the people ran out, and the streets were full of people scurrying around.
What's more, when they learned that the city gate was open, they ignored it, ignored the fact that the city was their home, and rushed straight outside.
Ouyang Huai and Tian Hai's orders were important, but at this time it was a time of life, and many people were still listening to the orders in front of them, and they turned their faces to look for the city gate and walked outside.
They were originally worried that when they went out of the city, they would be killed directly when they ran into Gu Chengan's people, and some of them dodged.
But soon, those people found out the pattern, Gu Chengan didn't mean to kill them at all, he made such a big move just to come in and find someone.
He didn't even look at those who rushed out of the city to escape and didn't pose a threat to him.
Looking for the strange road in front of you but familiar in your mind, you went straight to the center of Song'an County.
Soon, the entrance to the urban village market appeared in front of you.
Unlike when Zhuang Siyan and the others came before, the guards here were lax at this time, so lax that only two people were still standing there in a hurry.
Seeing Gu Chengan coming over with someone, the two simply threw away the things in their hands, turned around and disappeared.
In the end, they are all gathered for profit, and now in a moment of crisis, the verbal loyalty of the past is gone with the wind.
Gu Chengan sneered, as if he had entered a no-man's land, and quickly walked inside.
At the door of Tian Hai's house, he still met a person who really had backbone and perseverance.
It's Tian Hai himself.
He wasn't hurt, but he couldn't compare to what he had been a few days ago.
His clothes were messy, his hair was scattered a lot, and his face was black and gray, and he didn't know what was covering his face.
When a wind blew, he blew up his scattered head, and when he came down again, he put on his face, like a madman who didn't care about his face.
But Tian Hai insisted on not leaving here, but for his family's treasures.
Those were all purchased for the third princess, and the princess has not come to pick it up until now, and such a big thing happened in Song'an County.
Everyone else is messy, but he can't.
Even if his clothes are messy, his heart can't be messy.
He had to keep these things until the princess came.
Tian Hai stood at the gate of his yard, watching the guards in the past desperately flee for their lives, he watched coldly, that is, he did not stop them, nor was he moved.
But when he saw Gu Cheng'an coming, he picked up the iron fan in his hand.
What should the iron fan do in the early stage, it has been used seriously, so a layer of grinding off the fan bone was originally black, but now it has become a little white in the middle, which looks like a spot on a human body.
Gu Chengan practiced martial arts in the army, and when he looked at his posture, he knew that this person's kung fu was not weak.
However, he is not an idle person.
Listening to his order, his left and right crossed him and walked towards Tian Hai's courtyard.
And Gu Cheng'an used his sword to fight him at the same time as Tian Hai made a move.
The two quickly became a ball, even faster than the wind in the sky, and dozens of moves had passed back and forth.
And the guards who entered Tian Hai's mansion all returned empty-handed.
Seeing them come out empty-handed, Tian Hai was obviously relieved, but Gu Chengan felt a sense of annoyance.
