Chapter 35 On the eve of the Great War

The defense of the city is divided into two main parts. One is the battle line outside the city, and the other is the battle eye inside the city.

The battle line outside the city was bounded by the walls of the main city. The magic circle extended by the city is a labyrinth array as a whole.

When the circle is activated, all external access to each affiliated town will be closed. That is to say, as long as the formation is not broken, the monsters that step into the formation can only follow the only path left for them, go straight to the main city, and then will be rejected by the battle team formed by the city.

This is the best experience that monks have gained in fighting monsters for thousands of years.

For the most part, this drive tactic is very effective. However, on the way to the main city, the monsters will always accidentally attack the inside of the labyrinth, so it is important to maintain the key nodes of the town's extension circle. Otherwise, a small corner may be damaged, and it may become the water of the embankment.

When Yan Kaiting had centrifugation in the "Tiangong Kaiwu" branch in Dongtun Town, he immediately took back the workshop for this reason. The branch is one of the key nodes in the town, and it is necessary to ensure that there is no human threat.

When people's hearts are stained with interests, they sometimes become demons. In the rumors of various states, there are many "smart people" who want to eradicate dissidents with the help of monsters, which leads to a tragedy in the whole city.

Another danger on the battle line outside the city is the beast tide.

The "Demon Moment" is the most vulnerable moment of the world's barriers, and the monsters outside the world will do everything possible to take advantage of this opportunity to find a crack to invade. If the Jianmu beings have the Dao seed to represent life, then the out-of-realm monster means death.

Dao species and monsters can't coexist by nature, and once they meet, they are either born and die.

In such a distorted space, the entanglement and strangulation of the large-scale breath of life and death will greatly stimulate the fierce beasts in the nearby wasteland. As a result, those fierce beasts that usually crave blood and food will gather, riot, and follow.

However, in the berserk state, the beast's perception will decrease. Although most of them will be dragged by the aura of the magic circle to attack the main city, there are still a small number of them who will ignore the formation and rush directly into the town, so it can only be solved by the monks organized by each town.

As a result, the out-of-town fronts are often the most intense and stressful places of battle. The practice of Yujing City is that all members of the Gongju Alliance will send out strong teams and teams in proportion, and divide them into four gates.

In recent years, the leaders of the Tu, Yan, Fu, and Lu families have basically been fixed, and they will send their own strongest people.

All large magic circles have array eyes, and those as large as a city and surrounding towns, the array eye is an area.

In the 1,700-year history of Yujing City, at least half of the buildings and streets have been demolished.

However, no matter how it changes, the whole city has been consciously expanding and rebuilding radially around the Sixiang Sishi Garden, where the eye of the array is located. Therefore, to this day, the eye of the city circle is still the most central position in Yujing.

"Four Elephants and Four Seasons Garden" as a whole outside the circle and inside the square, four represent the sun, the yin, the little yang, the little yin of the Huabiao discrete four corners, under which the spring mulberry, summer hemp, autumn mang, holly, in order to metaphor the four times.

The cost of maintaining the garden comes from the city's tax revenue, and except for the square courtyard composed of four Huabiao, which cannot be entered, the four-hour forest is usually open to all people in the city. Because of its elegant landscape, it attracts many literati and monks to talk about the Tao here, which is quite an elegant meeting place.

In this kind of place, of course, Yan Kaiting does not come much.

Today, the entire "Four Elephants and Four Seasons" park and the surrounding neighborhood are extremely quiet, and not a single figure can be seen. Ordinary citizens won't come over at this time, and the clans haven't come to assemble yet.

According to the usual practice, the battle line outside the city needs to be in place first, and after the inspection is correct, then the part of the inner city will be integrated, and finally it will be the turn of the self-defense teams in each block.

Yan Kaiting circled around the four Huabiao and silently looked at the surrounding environment. He was about to make a second turn when he heard the grinding of his clothes not far away, but he could barely hear footsteps.

As soon as Yan Kaiting looked up and saw someone coming, he knew that the other party was deliberately making a sound to remind him that someone was coming.

This well-mannered person is actually Han Fenglai.

Han Fenglai hugged Konghou in his arms, standing in the wind, the white robe on his body was slightly glowing with blue light, and he wore a soft mask on his face that looked like skin but not skin, and the shimmering light on the robe was the same color, covering most of his face on his lips.

Yan Kaiting couldn't help frowning when he saw that it was him, Han Fenglai's name was not on the list of assistance issued by the City Lord's Mansion. However, the news of his visit to Yujing is not completely secret, and wearing a mask only means to cover up.

Han Fenglai greeted him, "Lord Yan." ”

Seeing that Yan Kai didn't respond immediately, he explained: "Now that the war is about to start, if I officially hand over the name post to the City Lord's Mansion, it may be even more inconvenient for everyone." However, the monster is currently encountered, and since it has been encountered, it must always be distracted. ”

Yan Kaiting was stunned for a moment, what he thought in his heart was a bit of a villain.

Han Fenglai is not an ordinary person. "Yetian Workshop" is listed in the same column as the monk sect, and it is one of the seven factions of the four sects and seven sects. In terms of identity and status, the young master of the Han family is much heavier than the head of the Yan family.

If he spreads out his identity and officially visits Yujing City, the families in the city will have to make up for a series of formal etiquette. Moreover, the risk of the city has increased greatly, and if such a person has an accident in the city, who can bear the responsibility in the face of the "Yetian Workshop" Xingshi's questioning? If he came here incognito, he could still justify the innocence of a person who did not know.

I have to say that Han Fenglai showed an excellent temperament, understanding, calm, and generous. Although he seems shy and introverted, he will ignore this issue after a few words.

Han Fenglai sometimes responds slower during conversations, but not because he is hesitant, but because his language seems to be a little sluggish. But this small shortcoming had no effect, and when he fully stated his opinion, he would find that he was extremely decisive.

Yan Kaiting bowed and said, "Young Master Han is thoughtful. ”

Han Fenglai said: "Call me Xiao Shao, it's more convenient." ”

Yan Kaiting glanced at him, and he didn't seem to have anything to say except Ying Xia.

Next, the two stood face to face, neither of them spoke, as if they couldn't find a topic for a while.

After being silent for a moment, Han Fenglai said: "This 'Four Elephants and Four Seasons Garden' is really good, I look at the Yujing Great Array, and use the 'Four Elephants of the Stars', the advantage is that the array is constant, but the rest of the part can be adjusted locally according to the changes of the building, and there is no need to tear down and rearrange them all." It is very suitable for a large city with a population like Yujing. In the eye of the array, the garden is supplemented, and the vitality of the trees at the four seasons is used to weaken the death qi of the monsters, although it is not beneficial in wartime, but it is very beneficial to clean up after the war. ”

Yan Kaiting looked up at the nearest Chinese watch and said, "Oh." ”

It seemed that he felt that his reaction was too cold, and remedied: "I rarely come here, I don't know. ”

A laugh came into the ears of the two, and Fu Mingxuan turned out from the other side of the road at some point.

Although the two sides were still separated by more than ten zhang, the two of them did not deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, and they could hear it clearly with Fu Mingxuan's ear power.

Fu Mingxuan's footsteps were mentioned, his figure flickered, and he stood beside Yan Kaiting in the blink of an eye, patted him on the shoulder, and laughed directly "hahaha" without saying anything.

And Han Fenglai, who was standing opposite, was faintly visible under the mask except for the red tips of his ears, and the red halo fell into his neck. Earlier, Yan Kaiting might have thought that he was embarrassed, but now the most facious guess is that he is trying to hold back his laughter.

"Da Lang, your stunt of talking to death every time is finally not just launched against me. Fu Mingxuan said: "No wonder you can't catch up with women." ”

Yan Kaiting was annoyed and angry, "How can there be! There is a confidante of the lord on the entire Xianying Bridge!"

At this time, there were lively voices on the road where Fu Mingxuan came, several strong men took the lead, and groups of monks came over. Some wore uniform samurai uniforms, while others wore insignia to distinguish them.

This is the arrival of the clans of the major family forces.
