Chapter 41: A City-wide Roundup

Cheng Yu took the lead in making a move, kicked a warrior away, and said to Yao Chuanyan, "Big brother, what do I say, these dog things can't give him a good face, and they will be killed if they should be beaten." "This guy was so excited when he got into a fight.

"You still say! Let's find a way to get out of here first, remember, don't kill people. At this time, Yao Chuanyan could no longer communicate with the other party in good faith, so he had to fight, his seemingly weak scholar was actually good, and he was ruthless, and he knocked the warrior who attacked him to the ground in three or two moves.

Lu Xiaonan smiled, he was not afraid of this kind of group fight at all, it was much smaller than when Longhu Mountain attacked Hongguang Temple, and these warriors were too weak, so it was not difficult to deal with them at all.

The three of them were all masters, and they beat this team of more than 100 ironclad warriors by dividing them by two, and they couldn't get up anymore.

"Master Jun, I'm sorry, I will definitely find out the truth of the matter in my later life, and I will definitely go to the Yamen of the garrison to make amends to all the military masters." Yao Chuanyan didn't forget to say a few polite words when he left, and then pulled Lu Xiaonan and Cheng Yu, who was happily punching and kicking the warrior lying on the ground and wailing, and quickly escaped.

However, a piercing sound of Jin Ming suddenly sounded in the city, and then a pillar of light covered the three of them, Lu Xiaonan and Cheng Yu didn't know what they meant, they only saw Yao Chuanyan's face change greatly, "It's bad, we are wanted." ”

Resisting arrest, attacking officials, Linjiang City has not had such a major event for hundreds of years, and immediately alarmed all the guards and residents, there are teams of ironclad warriors at each street entrance, and there are more original residents as eyeliner, in order to capture the three, according to the degree of harm of the three, Linjiang City almost dispatched nearly two percent of the army.

The three of them walked through the streets and alleys, although they were very good and fast, but no matter how they escaped, the three pillars of light from the defense formation system of Linjiang City always shone on the heads of the three people, like shadows, unable to get rid of, those army warriors pursued according to the guidance of the pillars of light, and there were people everywhere chasing and intercepting, as if they were caught in the vast sea of the people's war, and there was no possibility of escape.

This reminded Lu Xiaonan of the game called "Legend" that Lu Yanran taught him to play, the person who grabbed the treasure was instructed by the system above his head, and all the players chased and snatched the person, and there was nowhere to escape, and the situation of the three of them was the same at this time, although they repelled the attacks of the ironclad warriors again and again, and jumped out of the encirclement again and again, but they would immediately fall into another encirclement and be chased endlessly.

It's a city-wide roundup!

The three of them have always adhered to the bottom line of only wounding and not killing those samurai, but in the end, the number of the other party was too much, and they were soon dispersed by hundreds of ironclad samurai on war horses, so they could only fight separately, and each used all their best to escape.

The sky gradually darkened, although there was no sun here, and there was no obvious distinction between day and night, but in the city, under the effect of the formation, day and night were artificially created. When night comes, the formation will gradually shroud the city in darkness, reminding people that it is time to rest.

The sky is not completely dark, countless torches have been lit, the whole city seems to be in a carnival, because the behavior of Lu Xiaonan and the three of them has disrupted the order of the city, tonight the curfew in the city is difficult to implement, countless residents in the name of helping the army catch the evil in the name of taking to the streets, groups of piles through the streets and alleys, noisy and shouting, so that the boring and sleepy people have one more life adjustment, experience the excitement and happiness that they have never had.

Lu Xiaonan's speed was faster than the other two, and he soon fled to an uninhabited alley, but the pillar of light that had been shrouded above his head was a big trouble, and it was even brighter and dazzling in the dark night, he couldn't get rid of it with all kinds of methods, and even the pillar of light that penetrated into a cellar could penetrate the ground and envelop him, which made him realize that as long as he was in Linjiang City, he couldn't hide, maybe he could only avoid it by escaping from the city, but at this time he was already dizzy, and he couldn't tell which direction was the city gate.

The alley in front of him was dark and secluded, and when he reached the middle of the section, he saw that no one was approaching him, and jumped into the high wall on one side. Looking through the pillar of light overhead, this seems to be the back garden of a large family, but it is overgrown with weeds, dead branches and leaves, and it has been barren for an unknown number of years.

Hiding in this quiet small courtyard, you can hear the shouting and killing sound from a distance outside, probably chasing Yao Chuanyan and Chengyu, hoping that they can escape faster, smarter, and find a way to escape from the city.

Lu Xiaonan picked up a dead branch and slapped the layers of cobwebs, and walked towards the dilapidated tower-shaped blue brick octagonal tower hidden in the trees, his instinct told him that it seemed to be the place he had to go, which was why he jumped in. At this time, the alley outside seemed to have been occupied by the ironclad warriors who were chasing him, and the sound of footsteps and the sound of ironclad friction blended together, but this army was extremely disciplined, and not a single person made a noisy sound.

When these warriors saw this courtyard clearly, they all showed a look of surprise, the courtyard in front of them is a taboo existence in Linjiang Divine City, it is said that it is haunted inside, the evil ghost will wreak havoc in the city every once in a while, grabbing boys and girls to devour, even the city lord can't help it, and finally it seems that some kind of agreement has been reached with the city lord, ten pairs of boys and girls are worshiped every year, and the evil ghosts in it have just stopped.

Although the samurai were repulsed and no one wanted to approach this courtyard, it was their duty to capture the enemy, so they surrounded and sealed the courtyard, and then they all looked up and watched the pillar of light in the night sky slowly move in the courtyard, but no one dared to trespass.

Lu Xiaonan listened for a moment, and made sure that he was safe for the time being, maybe because of the owner of the courtyard, those warriors would not break in for a while, but if he was delayed for a long time, he might be used as a stuffing by the heavy warriors to wrap dumplings, and it would be even more difficult to have a chance to escape. It's just that he can't leave at this time, and there is always a strong feeling in his heart that there is something in the octagonal tower calling him, to be precise, it is calling the short stick that snatched from Xunfeng in his purse, and the closer he gets, the more intense the throbbing in his heart becomes, as if someone is beckoning to him, calling his name, and letting him pass.

Pushing open the door of the octagonal building, an old and rotten smell came to his face, he waved his hand to fan away the dust flying in front of him, and saw the scene inside the building clearly by the dim light, I don't know how long it has been abandoned, it is covered with thick dust everywhere, and the snort of one foot is almost up to the ankle, and the table and chair next to it turn into foam at the slightest touch.

Lu Xiaonan frowned, looked carefully, and the first thing that caught his eye was an iron lump that looked like a tomb raised in the middle of the living room, everything here was covered with thick dust, only this iron lump was still dark and shiny, and it was dusty. This made Lu Xiaonan feel very weird. But the meaning of the summoning was even stronger, it came from the iron lump, so he walked forward slowly, only to find that the outline on the iron lump was full of various runes, as if suppressing something, and around the iron lump there were countless dry bones, these dry bones were mostly small children's bones, and I don't know how many years had been dead, they had been weathered and decayed, and they were no different from dust when stepped on.

The closer he got to the iron bump, the harder Lu Xiaonan's heart beat harder, and even became a little chaotic, and it was difficult to keep calm anymore. The idea of the summoning came from under the iron lump, but there was another intuition in his heart that told him not to approach, otherwise there would be great danger.

Lu Xiaonan stood two steps away from the iron bump, and the two feelings clashed and struggled in his heart, and he didn't know what to do for a while.

As the minutes passed, the sweat on his forehead fell, his body gradually trembled involuntarily, and a very tired feeling of detachment swept through his body, he felt that he was very tired, his eyelids were about to close, and he wanted to fall asleep.

A gust of wind blew, rolling up the dust all over the house, and in the dim and cold light, half-asleep and half-awake, he seemed to see an old man with withered hair like a madman, brandishing the broken spear with half a drop of blood in his hand and laughing wildly, the black teeth instantly became sharp, and the sound seemed to be a thunderous sound that suddenly opened, and it hit the sky in an instant.
