Chapter 41: Robbery and Destruction of the City

It was night, over the city of Tianjin, dark clouds covered the sky, and all the miles were wrapped in the cold wind, splashing water into ice.

In the meantime, the two of them were suspended in the air, and their hands and feet were bound to the cyan stones of the city wall, unable to move.

Ten feet away, the woods were deep, and the peaks were stacked on top of each other, blending in with the deep darkness of the night, and there was no one to be seen.

Standing on the top of the mountain and looking back, it is the camp belonging to Nangong Zhenghai, with camp tents arranged in an orderly manner and bright bonfires.

Easy to defend and hard to attack.

There is a lone lamp lit on the dark blue city wall, swaying with the wind and flickering brightly and darkly, silently looking at this desolate vast land, bringing a trace of warmth to the people hanging on the city wall. The city gate was tightly closed, and eight huge cupola cannons were aimed at the battlefield within ten meters in front of them, intimidating the front and guarding this lonely city.

The city wall stretches inward to the originally prosperous Wan'an Street, and at the end of the white marble paved road is the place where the imperial palace is located.

β€”β€”There, it is not only Ye Shengji's last bulwark, but also the target place of Nangong Zhenghai.

At this time, the palace also lost the scene of singing and dancing in the past, and only a few residual lamps lit up two or three times, announcing the order to be ready for battle.

At this time, the entire Wan'an Street also fell into a dead silence, and every house closed its door and turned on its lights and fell into darkness.

The strange thing is that none of the people in the entire Wan'an Street are carrying burdens and hugging their heads and asking to leave the city. Even if I listened carefully, I could vaguely distinguish the sound of sharpening knives and guns from several families in the backyard.

A colorful sparrow spread its wings from the military tent of Nangong Zhenghai and flew quickly across the cloudy night sky, flying towards the gilded palace with a clear purpose!

"That's Cai'er! How did it end up here?! ”

Jiang Zhige, who was hidden in the inky deep forest outside the city, suddenly recognized that the spirit bird belonged to Ye Shengji, and unconsciously almost stood up from squatting and exclaimed!

"Silly woman, do you want to send us to die en masse? Can you be quiet?! ”

Gu'er, who shrank her head and didn't know when she followed out, rolled her eyes at Jiang Zhige and said very dissatisfied.

"Imp! You shut up! ”

Jiang Zhige made a gesture to scare Gu'er, but Gu'er deftly dodged and pounced, so she had to withdraw her hand stupidly and pretend to look at the sky.

"Why should I hide in this bush with you? Lower the level. ”

The barren swept over the three people lying neatly at a glance very unwillingly, and sighed faintly.

He looked up and saw the sparrow, his eyebrows stretched slightly, and he chuckled and said, "It seems that this matter has become a little interesting." ”

The sky was vast and empty, and soon the shadow of the sparrow vanished without a trace.

The only lone lamp on the city wall was suddenly blown by the wind, and the light swayed over the faces of the wolf and Feng Yue hanging on the city wallβ€”the two of them were already exhausted and exhausted.

"It's them!"

Jiang Zhige frowned and looked at the two figures on the city wall, and muttered in a distressed whisper, "How can this be...... How did you get tortured like this......"

"Since they helped me and you escape, they naturally became traitors. The fate of treating traitors, in Nangong Zhenghai's laws, is naturally not tolerated. ”

Desolation was obviously commonplace for such cruel punishments, and it was not as touching as Jiang Zhige.

"I was the one who caused them......"

Jiang Zhige lowered her head sadly.

"But you're trying to save them now. Therefore, this world is full of turmoil, and no one can really figure out who owes whom. ”

Shi Lingling's hand slowly stroked the top of Gu'er's head, and said gently and lovingly.

Her eyes were full of love for Gu'er, but she seemed to have deep worries, obviously she was telling Jiang Zhige what she was saying, but she seemed to be talking about her life's past.

"When are we going to act?"

Jiang Zhige bit her lip, she was already very guilty, and she could hardly wait another minute.

"Hold still. Naturally, there will be opportunities later. ”

Barren turned around, his eyes locked, and looked at Nangong Zhenghai's camp.

There was a bright bonfire, and several people were reflected in the tent of the main tent, as if they were discussing something fiercely.

Compared to the city walls and the entire palace, it was unusually quiet.

Except for a few soldiers and cannons who were in charge of patrolling, the city walls were empty. If it weren't for the confrontation between the two armies, ordinary people would really mistake it for just an ordinary night patrol.

Suddenly, the lone lamp on the city wall was extinguished by a sword light! Then I only heard the screams of the soldiers guarding the city, and several figures fell one after another!

Someone raided the city wall in the middle of the night!

"Let's go!"

Barren put his arm around Jiang Zhige's shoulder, and before she could react, she had already flown out of the dark tree forest!

His whole person flew towards the two people on the city wall at a speed like a sword! And Jiang Zhige also took out the dagger in his hand very cooperatively, and cut it fiercely at the rope hanging the two of them!

I only heard the "click-" and "click-" of the knife into the rope! At the same time, all I heard was the sound of water pouring over the walls, followed by the sound of torches being lit!

"Not good!"

The barren snorted, and saw that the person who set the fire hesitated for a moment, turned his head sideways, and followed the prestige!

"Next!"

The desolation stuffed the two people who had broken the deep lock on the city wall into Jiang Zhige's arms, and ordered them to catch them in an urgent tone!

"Good! Not...... It's so heavy......"

Jiang Zhige snorted, but still grabbed the collars of the two, and at the same time, the torch in the man's hand had already fallen straight down in a bright arc!

There is more than just oil flowing on the walls! And eight cannons!

The fire, burning at a moment's notice, spread wildly with the wind, and it seemed that it was approaching the first cannon!

And Barren and Jiang Zhige took Feng Yue and Tian Wolf to look a little difficult, and they just happened to pass half of the city!

The black shadow of the arson looked at the desolation in silence, and then held a big knife like a sharp sword to the center of the desolate eyebrows!

"Be careful!"

Jiang Zhige exclaimed!

At the same time, the pilgrimage phoenix bead hidden on her chest seemed to sense the danger and emotions of her master, and in an instant, it emitted a dazzling white light!

With the dazzling light of this white light, everything around it suddenly fell into a static time and space! And the city wall that was engulfed by tongues of fire also fell into calm at this time!

Meanwhile.

Jiang Zhige finally saw the face of the black shadow man so clearly!

It was one she will never forget. Face.
