Chapter 390: The Great War is Coming
In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, the two did not stop here too long, and when they returned to the ferry, they memorized in detail the time of the deployment and rotation of the entire city wall, and only when it was dark did they turn back and turn back.
At this time, the night was quiet, and the stars and lights could be seen from this position in the cities on both sides, among which the Acropolis was the most prosperous, and all the lights were concentrated in one circle, which was probably caused by the torches lit on the city walls by the soldiers in charge of the night watch.
The two of them stood there carefully for a moment, after making sure that there would be no one to guard, Aunt Jinyue looked up at the starry sky, kept pinching the tips on her fingers, paced back and forth, squatted down from time to time to take the branches on the ground to make a mark, and then put the branches in front of her, opened one eye and closed one eye, and carefully compared between the two cities, her movements and demeanor reminded me of a carpenter who was measuring the foundation and preparing to build a house, and after a while, beckoned me to come to the river bank together, squatted down and began to grasp the wet mud on the bank, Use your hands to pinch out the strange-shaped clay figurines.
I looked a little curious, and after a few inquiries from side to side, I lowered my voice and said, "What the hell are you doing?" ”
Aunt Jinyue didn't raise her head and said: "I'm inviting the five fetal gods in the east, south, west, north, and middle to start in the place where the void is not occupied, and then I will invite the six stars of the Southern Dipper, the seven stars of the Big Dipper, as well as the Patriarch of Pu'an and the Patriarch of Lingqi to come here together to build a city that is exactly the same as the Five Plains City, so that when the iron ox is transported here tomorrow, the people of the Acropolis can only see the outline of a city buried in the night, and you and I are in the city, even if it is a singing hall and performing tricks, the people of the Acropolis will not be aware of it in the slightest." ”
I was stunned for a while before I reacted, and said incredulously: "Do you want to build a mirage here that is exactly the same as Wuyuan City?" “
Aunt Jinyue didn't answer me, the movements of her hands were fast, and a vivid clay figure was constantly placed on the ground, and after there were more than a dozen of them, Aunt Jinyue stood up, looked up at the starry sky and said, "I hope tomorrow will be a good day......
After speaking, he lined up the mud tires under his feet, then took a deep breath, pinched his hands in front of him, closed his eyes and muttered: "The sun comes out of the green sun, and I see the water lang from the five directions, together with the east Jia Yi Mu, two from the south of the fire, three from the west Gengxin Jin, four from the north of the water, five from the central Wu, Tude Xingjun down to the earth!" ”
After speaking, in the line of sight in front of him, he saw five faint halos spilling from the night sky, shining straight on the five mud tires on the soles of his feet.
I was stupid, but this light came and went quickly, and after disappearing into invisibility in an instant, I saw Aunt Jinyue bend down and take out a handful of water in the river, sprinkle it on the mud tires one by one, and continue to read: "One sprinkles the eastern fetus is stable, the second is sprinkled with the southern fetus is stable, the third is sprinkled with the western fetus is stable, and the fourth is sprinkled with the northern fetus is stable......"
After the five mud tires were all sprinkled with a shallow layer of river water under her hands, Aunt Jinyue let out a long sigh of relief and said, "Okay, it's all up to God." ”
The two of them sat by the river and guarded the five fetal gods until dawn, and Aunt Jinyue continued to stay here, while I left early to return to the ferry to meet Wu Jiyun and the others.
When I arrived at the wharf of Wuyuan City, the old dart master was already guarding the ferry, and when he saw me coming, he hurriedly beckoned me to get on the boat, and when I came to the boat, he told me: "Everything has been relayed, and tonight, the warship and the iron ox will all arrive in Gucheng." ”
I nodded, and then asked, "How many of the nine iron oxen can be used now?" ”
The old dart master looked embarrassed: "Plus the previous five and the two who were rushed out this day and night, there are still two shorts." ”
I sighed when I heard this, seven is seven, since Aunt Jinyue doesn't mind, she will definitely have a way then.
When I arrived at the Gucheng River Basin, it was still early, standing alone on the bow of the boat, watching the boats coming and going on both sides, and then thinking of tonight's night attack, my thoughts were a little messy for a while, this will be the first war for me Bai Xiaoyi to set foot on the ancient road, victory or defeat determines life and death, and the battle situation is related to the trend of the entire Luoyan Town from now on, thinking of the familiar faces, as well as Wei Junyao, who is in the Nine Prisons and Nine Springs at this moment, he suddenly clenched the fist in his hand.
But at this moment, I only felt a violent shaking under my feet, like a small boat being violently impacted, swaying back and forth, and when I was in a trance, the sole of my foot was unstable and almost fell into the water.
Crashed the ship?
I turned my head in wonder, only to find a small wooden boat one size larger than the dart boat clinging to my back, the hull was dark, and I couldn't see any signs, and I suddenly felt a sigh in my heart, at this time any mistake may directly affect tonight's action, seeing the dart master out of the cabin and looking at the wooden boat behind him was about to speak, I waved my hand and said: "Forget it, let's go, find a shore to stop, more is better than less, don't cause unnecessary trouble here." ”
The master nodded, and then glanced at the wooden boat behind him, and was about to pick up the oars and row away, when he heard a wave of angry scolding coming from the wooden boat.
"Who doesn't have long eyes to stop the boat blindly on the river, if you crash Lao Tzu's boat, can you afford to pay the fuck?!"
As he spoke, a black figure bent down from the hatch of the ship, and I saw a trace of anger flashing on the dart master's face, so I glanced at him, and at the same time stared at the person on the wooden boat, and when the figure gradually showed its face in the sight, I couldn't help blurting out: "Liu Yunfei? ”
Liu Yunfei was wearing a black overcoat, and was scolding and looking at me, when he heard someone call his name, he was stunned, and then his eyes widened, and he jumped directly from the wooden boat to him, grabbed my arm and said, "Big brother, I can be regarded as seeing you." ”
Looking at his excited face, I was really a little surprised: "Why are you here, owl, not with you?" ”
When Li Yunfei heard this, he immediately lowered his face and said: "How do I know where he is, since he was sent here by the princess, he has been practicing every day, and the two of them haven't even seen each other. ”
Then his eyes swept over the boat, and he looked at me suspiciously: "Big brother, why are you the only one, Princess Wushan?" ”
I looked left and right to signal him not to speak, and then dragged Liu Yunfei into the cabin, stared at him and said, "I'm going to do a big job tonight, will you come?" ”
Liu Yunfei's eyes widened: "What's the big deal." ”
"Siege!"
I didn't explain too many details to him, just told him that he only needed to listen to the arrangement of a man named Wu Jiyun at night, and he couldn't act without authorization, and if something went wrong, I also asked him to continue to practice, at least ten years.
As soon as Liu Yunfei heard the exercises, his eyes almost shook out, and the two of them sat in the cabin and listened to him tell about everything that happened after coming to the ancient road, and only then did they understand that the person Wei Junyao arranged for him to go to the Thirteen Chains Wu was a master of using a knife, and under his guidance for so long, although he had suffered a lot of crimes, his comprehension of Yama Luo Slash could be described as a thousand miles a day, and with his participation in tonight's action, the odds of victory would be much greater.
Until dark, the river area near Gu Cheng began to become scarce, and the city gate slowly closed with the twilight, the surroundings were unusually quiet, and the sound of the river could not hide the heartbeat in my chest at this time, my eyes were staring at the direction of Luoyan Town, and I unconsciously held the hilt of the sword in my hand trembling slightly, until my eyes were astringent, and on the tumbling river, a huge black warship quietly cut through the night, and sailed towards me without a sound.
Behind the black dragon warship were three large warships, countless awning boats were sandwiched in the middle, mighty, covering the entire river, looking at it only felt a rush of blood, and all the fears and worries turned invisible.
The majestic General Wu Jiyun stood at the bow of the ship with a sword, his cold eyes scanned the river, and when he saw the dart boat with the lights on, as soon as he raised his hand, all the warships stopped in unison.
