The other party's actions were strange and quiet, and the excessive calm meant that the storm was coming, and the defenders by the Zijiang River did not dare to relax at all. Zhao Wu didn't live in the city either, but found an open place by the river and set up a camp, and Lingwu also wanted to come out, but his father didn't agree to anything. Lingwu had no choice but to stay in the city honestly, and ran to the city tower several times, and saw that there was no war on both sides, and he felt bored. When he returned to his quarters, he saw that the three slave girls in his room had nothing to do, so he chatted with them.

"Xia Yu, I don't understand, those slaves are fine, why are they rioting? You see, a lot of people died the day before yesterday. ”

"I don't know, there are so many people, all over the mountains, scared to death."

"No, I've never seen so many people. How dare they rebel? ”

"What don't you dare? Anyway, they are all dead, of course they have to rebel," Xia Yu said coldly.

"Death anyway? Who's going to let them die? Lingwu didn't understand.

"Little master, don't talk about this, you are still young, there are many things you don't understand now" Xia Yu obviously didn't want to say this: "You don't understand the bitter little master of the slave, don't talk about it, Cao'er, you and I went to see that there was dinner, Qin'er is here to accompany the little master." After saying that, he bowed his head and went out.

"Qin'er, why do I think Xia Yu is upset?" Lingwu hurriedly asked after waiting for the two of her to walk away.

"Little master, you asked about her sadness, of course she was uncomfortable"

"What can she be sad about? I've never heard of it, you tell me about it," Lingwu was suddenly very curious.

"I don't dare to say, if she knew, I would be miserable."

"I won't tell her, I will keep it secret, and I will never say it to others" Lingwu hurriedly raised his hand: "I swear, what I tell others, I am a puppy." ”

"Then I'll tell you, remember, you can't let her know that I said it."

"Don't worry, my words count."

"Xia Yu's mother's family turned out to be a slave of a samurai family led by Jiang An, and her mother was only eight years old at the time. When the samurai lady passed by, he saw that her mother's mother was beautiful, and she spoiled her grandmother in the field in front of the whole family. Their family can't help it, who makes themselves someone else's slave, but what they didn't expect is that this adult is not satisfied, and he wants to rape a little girl who is just eight years old. Her grandfather begged his master to spare his granddaughter, and the servant next to him beat him for a while before he died. Her two uncles rushed up frantically and fought with the samurai, which saved Xia Yu's mother, but both of her uncles were hacked to death. Her mother was the only one left in the family, and she was eventually sold elsewhere. If it weren't for the fact that the lord of the mansion happened to see her mother buy it, she still doesn't know where she suffered. ”

"It turns out that Xia Yu's mother still has such an unfortunate thing, and my aunt is good to me, but I have never seen Xia Yu's father, who is it?" The aunt Lingwu said was Zhao Wu's personal slave girl, and she was always responsible for taking care of the lives of Zhao Wu and his wife. After having Lingwu, he often took care of Lingwu, and arranged his daughter to accompany Lingwu.

"Little master, don't ask me about this, I don't dare to say it if I kill me, don't ask Xia Yu either, otherwise I'll be finished, please, blame me for being too talkative" Qin'er was frightened and hurriedly kowtowed.

"Okay, okay, I won't ask, look at your scare. What's the big deal, don't worry" Lingwu said, but he was quite puzzled in his heart, but thinking of Auntie's tragic past, it is estimated that there is something that he does not want others to know.

The three of them had a hasty dinner, and it was already dark outside, so Lingwu went to read a book for a while, and then began to meditate. On the night of late autumn, the front line of swords and soldiers facing each other, it is rare to have such tranquility, and Lingwu likes to cultivate at this time. Recently, the spiritual power has grown very fast, and the spiritual power spreads like water waves, beyond the city wall, to the river, the divine sense sweeps, a trace of wind, an ant can be felt clearly. Lingwu clearly knew every soldier walking around the bridge, and the torches in their hands. Lingwu knew that everything was normal by the bridge, so he controlled his divine sense to move along the river to the east, and there were archers in ambush in the grass on the river beach, some of them were sleeping, and they looked at the other bank vigilantly, and the entire Zishui River in the south was quietly exuding some tension. The water flows eastward, and joins the Fushui at the east gate, where the river is the widest, but the upstream Fushui flows here, and the river suddenly opens up, and the water is the most gentle. This place is the farthest away from Tiantai City, about 5,000 meters, and the spiritual power of Lingwu was not strong enough before, so it was not possible to get here. In recent days, his spiritual power has increased greatly, and he has been able to come here. Lingwu was about to retract his divine sense, but he found something abnormal, so he couldn't help but concentrate his divine sense again and check it on the top of the confluence of the two waters. Why is there so much wood on the river? What's that? There was work going on on there, connecting the woods, and the nearest place was just a few meters from the river. Lingwu suddenly had a flash of inspiration: Could it be that someone is building a bridge? Who will build bridges here? Damn, it's not the mob across the river. Lingwu desperately concentrated his spiritual power and spread it along the other side of here, and a large number of people gathered on the shore opposite the bridge. Lingwu could fully feel the weapons they were wearing, there were already people on the bridge, there were a lot of people, Lingwu wanted to know how many people there were, but this was already the end of the spiritual power investigation. Lingwu tried hard a few times, but he couldn't go any further, so he had to take it back. Lingwu couldn't care about cultivation anymore, so he immediately retracted his mind and ended meditating.

"Come on, come on" Lingwu shouted and ran out: "Lu An, gather people." Quick, let's go to my father's tent. ”

Lingwu quickly rushed out of the Lord's Mansion and ran towards the south gate. Lu An took the guards to shout and chase: "Little master, what's wrong?" "Lingwu where is Lu An fast, before he reached the south gate, Lu An caught up.

"Lu An, send me to my father's camp quickly, I want to tell my father about the emergency military situation."

Lu An didn't dare to slack off, he picked up Lingwu and flew to the outside of the city, asking as he ran: "Little master, you can't be dreaming, right?" In that case, I'd be miserable. ”

"Hurry up, I'm not dreaming, it's our warriors who are still dreaming." As soon as Lingwu finished speaking, he heard a loud shout from the other side of the South Bridge, and countless torches immediately lit up on the opposite side. The vigilant sentries shouted at the top of their voices: The enemy is attacking, everyone is in position. The south side immediately became nervous.

When Lu An came to Zhao Wu's tent, Zhao Wu had already walked outside the tent and was about to go to the Nanqiao bridgehead, but when he saw Lu An running quickly with Lingwu on his shoulder, he couldn't help but be furious: "Lu An, are you dizzy?" What are you doing with Lingwu at this time? ”

"The adults are angry, not the little ones, but the little ones should bring the little masters. It was the little owner who wanted to come and said there was an emergency"

"Urgent fart, the enemy has not made a sound for two days, there must be a big move at this time, I don't have time to bother you, Nanqiao will definitely be a big battle tonight. I will settle the account for you when I come back, and send Lingwu back, there is no loss" Zhao Wu obviously shouted angrily.

"Dad, I have important military information to tell you. Lu An, let me down" Lu An didn't dare to let go, and turned around to go back. Lingwu was in a hurry and shouted vigorously: "Let me down, it's really urgent, otherwise it's too late." ”

I heard my son screaming, and his voice was urgent. Zhao Wu was busy: "Son, what's wrong with you?" What's the matter? ”

"Dad, the enemy is building a bridge outside the east gate, and there are already people on the other side of the river coming through the pontoon bridge. Send someone to guard it, or it'll be too late. ”

"What? Outside the East Gate? How do you know? It's impossible, the river is so wide over there, it won't build a bridge from there, right? ”

"Really, I just used my spiritual sense to check the confluence of the two rivers, they have built a bridge, and many people are crossing the bridge."

"Oh no, I was careless, the most unlikely place is the most likely!" Zhao Wu patted his head: "The enemy's attack on the south is to attract my attention, it's hateful, and it gave me a sound to attack the west." Pass on my order, He Jian led his troops to guard the South Bridge, and he had to resist it desperately. Follow me for the rest. ”

In an emergency, Zhao Wu rushed to the east gate with only a thousand guards. Lu An was so anxious that he stomped his feet: "Lord of the Mansion, you are too little." "Lu An, you run fast, go back to the city to gather people. I'll take 3,000 guards first, and you can rest assured that I can protect myself. My father didn't know exactly what to do, and I could lead the way. You have to be fast, and the faster we are, the safer we are. ”

Lu An thought that there was only this way, put Lingwu down, and said loudly: "Listen, follow the little master, and protect him." I'll be here in a moment," he said, and flew towards the city. Lingwu shouted: Let's go, full speed ahead. The three thousand guards were usually trained strictly, and Lu Ping followed Lingwu closely, and everyone rushed all the way, desperately rushing to the confluence of the two rivers outside the east gate.
