Chapter Eighty-Six: The Dusty Past Is Revealed
Chaoguo, Chengtao Town
It is said to be a town, but it looks more like a barracks from the outside, the arrow towers on both sides already show the degree of its defense, there is a moat under the city wall, the drawbridge hangs high, and there is a group of officers and soldiers walking on the city wall, and it is not clear whose army is from the clothing.
"I thought that there was no one living in the country anymore, but I didn't expect there to be such a heavily guarded town. ”
Lin Xu is not so optimistic, this Chengtao Town is probably the secret location, but now the problem at hand is how to get over, you can't wade into the water, the stealth powder on your body is most afraid of water, you can only enter from the suspension bridge, but how to put down the suspension bridge?
"Do you still have phantom powder?" Zhuqin has a way, maybe he can use the nest of brown skin rats just now.
"What people!" the soldiers defending the city did not know when a group of men and horses stood outside the city wall, they lowered the drawbridge, and a group of soldiers rushed out, and this group of men and horses turned around and ran, and the soldiers followed, and after chasing for a long distance, the group of people disappeared out of thin air.
"What's going on?" asked a man in silver armor as he stood on the castle tower.
"Back to the general, I don't know who it is, I was run away by them before I could see it clearly. The soldier downstairs replied.
"Close the gates. With that, the silver-armored general left the castle tower.
At this time, Lin Xu and Zhuqin had already entered the inner city, there were no streets, shops, and only rows of empty houses and patrol soldiers everywhere remained, they hid in a corner, and after making sure that there was no one around, Lin Xu asked: "How far can you listen to your thoughts?"
Zhu Qin tried to expand the scope of his speech, and vaguely heard a sentence, "If he dies, he will inevitably be involved, so it is better to save him tonight and send him back to Wuhuan City." ’
Following the words, Zhu Qin took Lin Xu to find an empty house, the space was not large, it could be said that there was nothing, but he clearly felt that the voice came out of here, how could it be an empty house.
"This room is not that simple, there must be some mechanism. Lin Xu searched for each brick, and finally heard a thump under one brick, and he pried it open with his dagger, and inside was a ring.
He pulled hard, only to feel that the house was shaking, and it continued for a while and then stopped, "What's the matter?" Zhuqin observed the room, and there was no change from just now.
But when the two of them walked out of the room, they found that they were already in a big mansion, and the deserted street next to it had also become a garden promenade.
Passing through the garden is a hall house, in which a few small servants are napping, and then there is a yard with fairy birds, and all kinds of rare beasts, and when approaching the main house, I vaguely heard the voice of someone.
"You still trapped him this time, aren't you afraid of blaming him from above?" said a shrill voice.
"Hmph, there is always some sacrifice to do great things. This voice made Lin Xu a little dazed, as if he had heard it there.
"But you sacrificed his only son. Lin Xu guessed that they were talking about themselves, did these two have anything to do with Wuhuan City?
"If he had fulfilled his promise to cooperate with the outside world, the princess of the court would not have fallen into the hands of Mao Lie. ”
Zhu Qin patted Lin Xu, wanting him to take a step to speak, and the two came to the dark place of the rockery, "What do you think?" Zhu Qin asked first.
Lin Xu was also confused, and he couldn't figure it out. "I can't tell yet, it's not clear whether it's friend or foe. ”
"But they must be planning something here. Both confirmed.
"But we don't have a clue now, where to start investigating?" Although the two of them broke into the place, the mansion was as calm as an ordinary family, although they knew in their hearts that there must be some secret hidden somewhere.
When it was in a stalemate, there was a sudden sound of ding-dong in the stone wall of the rockery, Lin Xu immediately became alert, touched the stone wall with his hand, and repeatedly confirmed that the sound did come from the stone wall, and it seemed that it was a mechanism again, but this time it was hidden, and the two of them looked around the rockery for a long time and did not find anything, so they had to squat here.
When night fell, a group of people came, they stood in front of the rockery, I don't know how to use the rockery to sink into the soil to expose a hole in the ground, a team of people entered in a mighty way, and the carriage pulled sand and iron tools.
Lin Xu and Zhuqin also followed, and after entering the cave, there were torches around them soon, illuminating the inside.
"It's a hermit. "From the fact that they can control the dirt, there's no doubt about it.
They stopped the car, it was supposed to be a sapper field, it was unbearably hot, and there were a dozen big men in it, struggling to strike iron.
"Are they making weapons?" asked Zhu Qin in a low voice.
"Well, but they're all the lowest-grade swords. Lin Xu glanced at the wall in the distance, which was covered with war swords, and it seemed that there were quite a few of them.
A burly man picked up a war knife that had been made, swung it twice, and instantly broke in half when it hit the stone stove. He complained to the man standing not far away: "San'er, how do you use this weapon?" ”
"It's not for you, although these weapons are not good, they are enough for those battle soul soldiers, and they have no spiritual power. The man named San'er said impatiently, obviously not satisfied with these knives as well, shuttling between several training furnaces.
"Oops. A drop of mountain spring water fell on Zhuqin's shoulder, and the invisibility powder instantly lost its effectiveness, although she was standing by the wall, but a big living person appeared out of thin air and stirred up the pot in the cave.
"Who is it?" San'er was the first to react, he pulled out a short knife from his waist and rushed over.
Lin Xu saw that Zhuqin had been exposed and couldn't take care of himself, so he had to show up and fight with San'er, not to mention that Lin Xu had been tempered for such a long time, even San'er was not his opponent before, and he beat them to the ground in a few moves.
"It is not advisable to stay here for a long time, so withdraw first. Lin Xu beckoned to Zhuqin, and the two rushed out of the rockery, and before they could find a way out, they were surrounded by soldiers who rushed to hear the sound.
The two of them were actually quite able to cope with such a number of soldiers, but behind the soldiers, the silver-armored man standing made them shudder.
His eyes were particularly impressive, one was normal black, the other was blue, and there was a fierce gaze in it.
"Stand down. He didn't seem to be in a hurry to catch them, but instead had a playful look on his face.
The spear he was carrying behind him caught Lin Su's attention, because he had the impression that there was a man with a spear and a prophetic eye.
"Are you Hiroshi?" he asked, uncertainly, "haven't you already gone into hiding?"
"Little master, you still remember my name, it really touches me, go into hiding? That's just the idea of this old guy Mo Ying, if I go into hiding, where will this spear go to drink blood." With a strange smile, he held a spear and shouted for Lin Xu to show his weapon.
"I don't want to fight you, after all, we are all the Medicine King clan. "Lin Xu was stalling for time, and told Zhu Qin in his words, 'I can't resist for long, you find the right time to leave.' ’
'No, I'm by your side to at least help you deal with his attacks. ’
'Useless, his blue eyes have the ability to see through enemy attacks. ’
Then I won't leave, I'm going to go together. ’
"Don't think about it, none of you can leave!" As he spoke, he rushed over with a spear!
