117 Second Class Gate (I)
Thousands of rays of light bloomed on the top of Wuji Peak, and the whole city was attracting worldwide attention!
But alas, the light passed like a meteor, and soon it was fleeting, disappearing in the hazy sky. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The light of the meteor is only a flash in the pan, only the brilliance of the sun is the eternal existence, and the first ray of dawn is as promised in the early morning.
Usually at this time, even at the time of curfew, the door has already been sounded, and the city gate has been opened to usher in the send-off!
The plan of the day is in the morning, and there are not a few people who get up early to hurry, and at this time they are in front of the city gate, but hundreds of people have already gathered.
But today, it seems to be a little different from the past, not only the city gate is closed, but on the left and right sides of the city gate, there are two teams of soldiers dressed in gold and sharp, both with solemn expressions, obviously waiting here for a long time.
At this time, the first rays of the morning sun poured overhead, sprinkled on the armor of those armored soldiers, and immediately a cold glow of Dao Sen appeared, like a sparkling wave, which was chilling in the eyes of people, and the atmosphere was already extremely depressed.
"It's ......"
The battle in front of him made everyone feel that something was wrong, and some of them even had the idea of retreating.
A man with an ugly face felt that something was wrong, and immediately turned around, obviously intending to leave the place, but before he could take a few steps, suddenly there was a soft sound of bowstring in front of him, and a long arrow suddenly broke through the air, and only heard a 'poof', and the cluster of arrows was nailed to his feet, and only half of the arrow feathers were exposed in front of him.
The ugly-faced man's face changed suddenly, and he understood that if he took one step further, the arrow would no longer pierce the ground.
At this moment, a ray of sunlight poured down on the road ahead, and a figure walked out in that light, this is a black-faced man with a tiger's back and a bear's waist, holding an iron-tired stiff bow in his hand, an arrow bag full of arrows hanging diagonally on his back, and a thick-backed broadsword at his waist.
"Captain Shi, it's Captain Shi of the Divine Arrow Battalion!"
In the crowd, someone immediately exclaimed, obviously recognizing this black-faced general, who was the captain of the Shenwu Army's Shenjian Battalion.
But soon they were panicked, and suddenly on the houses on either side of the road, two rows of archers came out in unison, but they all bent their bows and arrows, and locked the cold clusters of arrows, as if at the slightest order, the arrows rained down.
"General Shi, the little one is just a more husband!"
The ugly-faced man squeezed out a smile on his face, but it seemed to be more ugly than crying, and said in a pleading voice: "The little one is more than this, and there is no malice." ”
Shi Dan had a sneer on his face, but he didn't pay attention to him at all, and said loudly: "People, according to the order of the young city lord, no one is allowed to leave the city, and ......"
When he said this, his voice paused abruptly, and he said sharply, "You must all stay here until the new city gate is built, and it is not too late to go out of the city gate." ”
New gates?
The people present were all in an uproar, looking at each other a little uncertainly, but some people's faces changed drastically, and they became miserable in an instant, as if they expected a catastrophe to come.
"Stone ...... General Shi, the old decay still has a ...... in the private school There is still an urgent matter, so we will ...... it today I'm not going to go out of town!"
Suddenly, an emaciated old man walked out of the crowd, his cloudy eyes flickering, as if he was trying to suppress the uneasiness in his heart.
"Don't leave the city?"
Shi Dan's tone seemed to be a little playful, but the corners of his mouth hung a sneer, and he snorted coldly: "I regret it at this time, I'm afraid it's a little too late, since you arrived here early, you can't go out of the city if you want to." ”
"This ......"
The emaciated old man's face was full of pale expression, and his eyes seemed to be a little desperate, but at this time, he didn't hear it, and there was a whisper next to him, obviously someone had recognized him as the mute old man from the Chengnan private school, and he had never heard him speak, but he didn't expect that this person was not mute at all.
Obviously, this old man has a big problem, he has been pretending to be deaf and dumb all these years, and he obviously has a plan in Wuji City.
However, there were also a few people in the crowd who looked wrong, with the same face as the old man, and they were obviously some people with bad intentions.
Just before the dawn appeared, when they found that the Wuji Hall was upgraded, they all chose to rush to the direction of the city gate, and they were afraid of building the city gate.
As long as the city gate is built, with their insignificant cultivation, I am afraid that they will only die of old age in Wuji City, otherwise they will not have the luxury of going out of the city in this life.
The reason for this is the special function of the city gate, which can automatically identify the spying of other forces, and those with bad intentions do not want to enter and exit the city gate at will.
However, they didn't expect that even if they reacted immediately, they were still one step too late, and the other party had already laid out here.
Just when they were panicked, suddenly at the end of the street, there was the sound of sparkling cars and horses, there were more than a dozen mule carts slowly galloping out of the morning light, but on the left and right there were hundreds of black-clad young men, but they were carrying a sapper shovel, these are all sappers who have served in the Ministry of Industry all year round, mainly in engineering and construction.
Followed by the mule cart, but it was the formation mage of the Ministry of Works, headed by Sima Wan Cangsong of the Ministry of Works, so far there were actually twenty or thirty people, obviously the Ministry of Works was pouring out, it can be seen how important it is to build the city gate?
When these mule carts galloped to the city gate, the sword-wielding soldiers guarding both sides of the city gate rushed up without waiting for orders and began to carry the resources above.
At this time, several young array mages stepped forward, they were constantly measuring in front of the city gate, and took out paper and pen to draw figures, as if they were drawing drawings for the construction of the city gate.
In less than half an hour, not only the resources on the mule cart were emptied by the Shenwu army, but also the construction drawings of the city gate were also drawn.
At this time, it was when those sappers showed their skills, some of them cut stones to build walls, some sawed wood to build beams, but the division of labor was orderly, and there was no rustiness, obviously in the upgrading of the Wuji Palace, they have become skilled sappers, of course, the construction of the secondary city gate is not a problem.
However, this scene of the great work in full swing fell in the eyes of that group of people, but it showed two completely different expressions.
Most of them, at this time, were full of excitement, and they could witness the construction of the city gate by the Ministry of Works, which was a unique opportunity.
Of course, there are a few people, but the expressions on their faces are getting more and more pale, they are no different from dead people, and they are even trembling all over, obviously terrified in their hearts, and they have despaired to the extreme.
No more than those ordinary people, they naturally have some knowledge, and the resources piled up in front of the city gate at this time are obviously going to be directly built into the second-level city gate.
The first-level city gate can identify the spying below the third floor of the meta-body, but the second-level city gate can identify the spying below the sixth floor of the meta-body, although it is only a promotion level, but there is a huge difference in the function of the building.
If it is a first-level city gate, there are still some people among them who can go out of the city, but if it is directly built into a second-level city gate, if it is not cultivated to the sixth-layer Yijin realm of the Yuan Body, they will not want to get out of the city at all.
The second-level city gate is like a moat in front of it, if you can't cross the past, what you are waiting for is only a dead end.
