Chapter 326: Witnessing
When I looked in the direction he was pointing, I saw a section of the city wall that was not too high but stretched on top of the mountain, and it was very conspicuous that there was a section of the city wall that undulated with the height of the mountain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info below it is like a gentle slope surrounded by these mountains, scattered with some gray houses, continuous into a piece, is a border town.
It was getting late, it was dinner time, but in this typical rural landscape, there was a missing important markβthe smoke, and in the huge town, there were no lights or any rising smoke columns, and the whole town was so quiet that it was as if time had stopped here.
Is that the fate of the current unpredictable Cloudtown? To be honest, if Cong Liqi hadn't specifically explained it, and I had deliberately observed it, at first glance, I really didn't think there was anything special about this town, and maybe I would have broken into it directly.
"You see, that's the garrison of the government." Cong Liyan pointed in another direction and said.
As soon as we looked, not too far to the southeast, there was a clear flickering of lights, and it seemed that flickering figures could still be faintly seen.
"Just as you have said beforehand, go ahead, and ask your friends if they are there." Cong Liyan said.
"I'll go, you wait for me here." As I spoke, I wanted to move.
"Are you going to go by yourself? Okay, huh? Don't be taken as a spy. Cong Liyan said.
"Why don't you give me a gourd too, and if I am detained, I will blow it and ask you to come and save me? It's like this," I said, putting my fingers around my mouth, whistling, and waving at him, "Come on, come on!" "The meaning of the molestation is already very obvious.
Before the words fell, I suddenly felt a figure on the right flickering by, and the wind sounded, so that I subconsciously dodged to the side, but I saw a fist waving closely, the fist was heavy, and it was obvious that I was using real strength!
After dodging the punch, I quickly turned around, but I saw that the punch was made by a guy who was standing very close to Cong Li, the little brother who kept the gourd for him.
Seeing that he was a little taciturn, he looked honest, but I didn't expect to be so agile to move, in order to prevent him from making another combo, I hurriedly took advantage of the situation to retreat, and said: "If you don't give it, forget it, what kind of ability is it to hurt people with hidden arrows?" β
When the man heard me say this, he stepped forward again, seeing that he meant to chase him, but he was stopped by Cong Li: "Fang Lian, stop!" β
This sound was really effective, Fang Lian's steps stopped suddenly, and when he looked down, his feet actually made two deep pits on the ground, which showed how strong the force of this was stopped.
"Cong Da, your brother is so violent, I think it's better to let him go with me, in case something goes wrong, at least I can come back and report to you, right?" Seeing that he was no longer attacking, I straightened up and smiled.
Cong Liyan was stunned when he heard this, but immediately said to this person named Fang Lian: "I think it's okay, you can go with him." β
When Fang Lian heard this, his face was hesitant, and when he looked at me again, there was anger in his eyes, but he still said in a low voice: "Okay! β
"This brother, since you have said that you will go together, you are partners, don't do it behind your back!" I said to Fang Lian. said that his face was red and white, showing that he was angry but didn't dare to lie.
"Housheng, with so many words, don't you want to save your brother?" Cong Li said to me.
"This ......" hit my death point with one sentence, I was speechless for a moment, hurriedly glanced at Meng Jiang and Sang Qing, and said, "Let's go!" So I ran straight to the direction of the light at the bottom of the mountain, and I heard the footsteps behind me, obviously Fang Lian was following me out.
Actually, I don't need help, especially from those of Cong Li's men. But leaving Meng Jiang and Sang Qing by their side made me very uneasy, if there was really anything wrong with one of them, at least I still had a reason to trace.
In the process of descending the mountain, Fang Lian did not say a word, neither ahead nor behind, and accompanied him like a shadow. But I couldn't relax, after all, these people are all hostile to me, who knows if they will suddenly attack again?
The position of this garrison was not far from the mouth of the gorge where we were, and by the advantage of the downhill momentum, it ran out for about ten minutes, and was already close to the edge of the camp, only to find that the scale of this barracks was much larger than when it was overlooked from the mountain, and the lights were brilliant at this time, and people and cars came and went, and it was very noisy.
I had already figured out my rhetoric along the way, and now I got dressed and went straight to the guard in front of the door.
The man had apparently seen us from a distance, and two or three men gathered together in alarm, clasped their weapons to their chests, and shouted, "Who is it? β
"The herald under the command of the general of the Jingshi garrison, the token is here, let your captain and historian come out and convey important things!" I cocked my token and shouted on my toes.
At this time, it was already dark, and they basically couldn't see what the token in my hand was at this distance, and seeing what state of emergency this camp seemed to be in at this time, I bet that they would not be in the mood to come over and check in detail, after all, I didn't ask to go in, I just wanted to know if Yue Bi was here.
Sure enough, when these people heard this, they seemed to be a little stunned, and after looking at each other, one of them replied: "Wang Weishi is busy, I guess I don't have time to see you......"
This made me overjoyed, and I hurriedly said: "This matter is urgent, please pass it on immediately!" β
But these people looked at each other again, and the man just now said, "I see, there is no need......
"Bold!" I said angrily, "The military order is like a mountain, how can it be delayed, if the military plane is delayed, what crime should you be guilty of?" β
Under the flickering firelight, the faces of these people were also bright and dark, and under such authority, I heard the man say in a trembling voice: "Just ...... Even if it's a capital offense, so what? β¦β¦β
"Huh?" I was taken aback and didn't know what this guy meant by that.
"Hey, look!" I was about to ask again, but I heard Fang Lian behind me suddenly say urgently.
I looked up and looked forward, and when I raised my gaze, I saw that the color of the red lights that had been shrouded in the barracks suddenly became extremely unstable, and began to writhe strangely like a flame in the blue sky that was about to fall into the night, flying charmingly, and slowly stretching out, opening its teeth and dancing claws, like a big peng, no, it was clearly a bloody phoenix spreading its wings in the sky, as if it wanted to embrace everything under the dome into its arms!
It's not a fire, it's ...... Hecher's totem?!
However, the image appeared in the sky for only a few seconds, and then the firelight began to dim, and the sky began to fall into darkness, and spread rapidly in the direction we were, and with it, the clear sound of human voices and the neighing of horses, a silent storm was engulfing the entire barracks!
"Let's go!" Fang Lian shouted.
I was stunned when a large hand suddenly grabbed my arm and dragged me backwards. After a while, I could only unconsciously follow the rapid backwards, but I still couldn't help but look at the military camp that was gradually moving away again, and the few guards who had been talking to us just now also turned their heads to look at the sky, but they were like stone statues and mud tires, just standing in a daze, and they didn't even have the intention of escaping!
"Run!" I shouted in a hurry, and I could faintly hear the cry echoing in the mountains, "Run!" ...... "Run!" β¦β¦ Then, as the screams subsided, the light dimmed, and the figures finally disappeared into the bottomless darkness, merging with the mountains and never to be seen again.
