Chapter 261: Death Again
After the ambush, the weather is getting hotter and hotter day by day, but the big war is imminent, and the fortifications and construction cannot be neglected. After some deliberations, the laborers were divided into two groups, one group rested at 10 o'clock at the beginning of the morning (2 o'clock), and the second group took over from 6 o'clock (6 o'clock) until midnight. The two groups took turns, avoiding the hottest midday hour. Considering that the laborers need to be busy at home, the two groups of people are divided into eight teams, A, B, C, D, and Penhectoxin, which work in turns, with six teams working every day, and each team can get one day of rest after working for three days.
As a result, everyone is excited, and even in the dead of night, the construction site is still a hot scene.
But the more the wind and rain are on the south shore construction site, the more troublesome the north shore becomes.
On this day, just after the hour, a group of laborers stopped busy, the lights went out one after another, and the torches in the hands of the sergeants who were only patrolling in the darkness flashed from time to time.
A few feet from the shore, a few odd reeds began to shake unnaturally.
As the reeds swayed, waves rippled out in circles, and a series of fine blisters broke silently in the river.
There is a case!
It's a pity that in the barracks, the laborers who have been working hard all day have long slept and snored so much that even if they hit the gong in their ears, they may not wake up.
Under the perfect cover of the night and the river, the enemy was paddling closer.
Five, four, three......
Getting closer.
The black shadow crawled out of the water, revealing its true face.
These people were wrapped in black, and they all carried a black jar on their backs, and the mouth of the jar was wrapped in layers of oiled paper, which showed that the contents were extraordinary.
Where did they come from, what did they want to do, and what did they carry on their backs!
Gao Cuiyun, who led the patrol, cautiously signaled the sergeant behind him to stand still, but followed closely, and he took out the communication spar and teleported these strange scenes to Li Yunuan's water mirror.
......
After looking around, they quickly removed the jar from their backs, broke open the sealed oiled paper, and poured out a black viscous liquid.
β...... What is this thing?"
Although it was the first time he had seen it, just looking at the excessive viscosity of these black liquids, the metallic luster emitted by the moonlight, and the cautious attitude of the man in black, Li Yunuan also knew that this thing was very dangerous.
Feng Qingde, who was on the side, heard this, leaned over and only glanced at it, and then sighed: "You actually use this thing...... Tuoba is really ruthless. β
"Do you know what these are?" Li Yunuan said.
Feng Qingde said: "This thing is called poisonous oil, it is a highly toxic thing dug out of the earth's crust, it can burn itself when it encounters high temperatures, and it often produces poisonous smoke and stench when burning. β
"What do you meanβ" Li Yunuan frowned.
Feng Qingde smiled: "As you think. β
"They must be stopped!" Liu Wuheng said eagerly, and Gao Cuiyun on the other side of the spar was also shocked when he heard that this thing was so powerful.
However, before he could get out of the tent, he heard Li Yeyin say leisurely: "You are anxious!"
"What do you mean?" Liu Wuheng was puzzled and looked at Li Yeyin.
Li Yeyin looked at Feng Qingde.
Feng Qingde twisted his face and said arrogantly: "Benjun is a phoenix who can control the flames by nature, although the poisonous oil is powerful, it is not so easy to ignite it without my consent." β
"What's more, I have a winning fish with me, since they have come up with such a poisonous plan, we will plan it and let them reap the consequences!" Li Yunuan added.
Liu Wuheng is a smart person, and when he heard this, he immediately understood their plan, and clapped his hands and said: "Sure enough, it's a clever plan, the soldiers already think that the weather is too hot, so they beg me to ask Da Neng to make a rain to cool down!"
"It's not easy for me to retreat if this is the case, so let's invite everyone to a rainstorm to cool down!" Li Yunuan said happily.
......
Gao Cuiyun will never object to Li Yunuan's decision, her life is given by her master, and she will not refuse what her master wants her to do!
What's more, as well-organized instructions were issued one after another, Shizun's plan gradually took shape.
According to her instructions, Gao Cuiyun followed behind the man in black with a hidden breath, and at the same time secretly deployed archers to carry cotton wool and other things, and set up an ambush, just waiting for her to give the order, and immediately shoot arrows.
The men in black who didn't know that death was approaching were still sprinkling oil, worried that the temperature at noon would not be high enough and the poisonous oil would not burn quickly, and they even deliberately sprinkled the poisonous oil on the blackened wooden board!
Just when I was nervous and busy, suddenly-
An earth-shattering gong and drum sounded, and the sound of dressing suddenly sounded in the tent where the snoring was like thunder, and the strong men who were drowning out of the camp with iron chisel crowbars on their shoulders, ready to wash their faces with the river water.
The man in black didn't expect these people to wake up so early, so he couldn't help but be shocked, and after a staggered look, he was about to retreat.
But the praying mantis catches the cicada and the yellow finch is behind, and Gao Cuiyun has been waiting for this time for a long time!
"Where to go!"
With a loud shout, the long sword was like a rainbow, and a person who was busy fleeing to the river was caught off guard and was poked in the heart.
"Quick, get out!"
The wailing and shouting continued, but the sound of gongs and drums in the camp was loud, and countless torches were lit from all over the place, and the night was suddenly illuminated as day, and the black clothes that were originally used to conceal their whereabouts made them particularly obvious.
"Set them on fire!" "Burn them!" the leader, realizing that his life was in danger, pulled out a fire breaker.
However, before he could pull out the sleeve of the fire fold, another long arrow flew through his arm!
"Ahh
That long arrow was actually quenched with poison!
As soon as the arrow entered the body, the whole arm was purple and bruised in severe pain, and the second leader saw this, and did not dare to fight, so he dragged the leader to retreat to the river, and shouted at the same time: "Quick! Jump into the water!"
Although his whereabouts were discovered, he fell short. But in all fairness, this group of people is not depressed.
Poisonous oil is not only easy to burn, but also difficult to clean, even if these people try their best, they do not want to brush up the specially refined and concentrated poisonous oil before the sun rises.
As long as there is a little spark, it will lead to chaos on the entire construction site, with countless deaths and injuries!
Thinking of the imminent anxiety of the chaotic party, the leader suddenly felt that the sharp pain in his arm was nothing, so he ran to the river, took out the reeds prepared in advance, bit them tightly, and jumped into the river.
They are all specially selected wanderers by the Yellow River, they can be more flexible than fish in the stormy waves, after the special training of the Murong generals, their elbows, knees, and soles are all covered with iron sheets, even if there are people on the south bank who are not inferior to them in the water, they are passively beaten when they enter the water.
But they didn't know that their opponents had never wanted to fight them underwater!
"It's all driven into the water?" Gao Cuiyun, who was holding the spar, asked loudly.
The people who chased them to the Yangtze River announced: "Except for the five people who were captured and shot, the rest of the fifty or so people have all gone into the water." β
"Good!"
According to Li Yunuan's advice, Gao Cuiyun said simply: "Release the arrow!"
"But Sister Yun, the night is so dark that even a sharpshooter can't be on the right head at all. The lieutenant reminded in a whisper.
Gao Cuiyun said: "You don't have to worry about this, just chase the black shadow and release the arrows!
As soon as he heard that it was Fairy Li's meaning, the lieutenant immediately stopped doubting it, and ordered the archers to shoot arrows wrapped in cotton wool!
Hmmmββ
A burst of arrows rained down, and the firelight slid across the night sky like meteors, falling into the depths of the black river, bringing a deep red, and then being swallowed without a trace.
The men in black are very proud, the night and the river are the best cover, they can leave with a swagger.
But will things really turn out as they expect?
Thundered!
A burst of thunder sounded, and the dark sky suddenly had a somewhat oppressive atmosphere, and rich water vapor came to the sky.
Wow -
Huge lightning bolts pierced the sky, bringing a shocking brightness and ...... to the world Deafening darkness.
Thunder and lightning intertwined, opening the prelude to the arrival of a storm, and the river was muddy with the wind, and fury was brewing, ready to attack at any moment.
However, even if they feel strange, these waves are still superstitious about their own strength, so that they lose the last chance to escape!
Whoa!
With a loud sound that was close to heavenly punishment, the dark clouds became thicker and thicker, and the lightning simply made contact with the ground, and a great catastrophe was about to befall.
In the face of this majestic and terrible force of nature, people instinctively fell to their knees and trembled.
Li Yunuan sat in the tent, her divine consciousness flew at the highest point in the sky with Yingyu and Chongming, guiding the vitality of heaven and earth. More clearly than anyone else, she felt the majestic power contained in the power of heaven and earth at this moment, and she knew that she was standing on the threshold of danger, about to commit a great deal of murder. In the future, even if he succeeds in entering the tribulation, he will definitely endure torture ten thousand times stronger than the lightning and thunder at this moment.
But, so what?!
She glanced at Li Yeyin, who was also engrossed, because of his unbridled release of death qi, they were able to condense this perfect storm in such a short period of time.
"This is the rain brought by the anger between heaven and earth, containing resentment and poisonous thoughts. When the poisonous fire is ignited, it will not be extinguished by the rain, but will become more intense!" Li Yeyin said admonishingly.
Wow -
The downpour began to fall, and every drop of rain knocked out a half-inch pit on the ground, and the rain quickly washed the riverbank, washing most of the sticky and thick poisonous oil into the Yangtze River.
Because it is oil, these black liquids not only did not melt after entering the river, but turned into a metallic film floating on the surface of the river, and the rain beat rapidly, and in the strong wind, the oil film became thinner and thinner, but also bigger and bigger!
The time is ripe!
Li Yunuan glanced at Feng Qingde, who understood, his fingers moved slightly, and a trace of fire suddenly bloomed in his fingertips.
Wow!
The flames rose from the ground, and the rain did not stop. The secret is that no matter how fierce the rain is, it cannot extinguish the flames, but only makes it more and more arrogant. It seems that at this moment, it is not rain that is falling from the sky, but oil!
Everyone who saw this scene was stunned, and they knelt in the rain and kowtowed to the burning river.
And the black-clothed people who were still proud of hiding in the river have long since lost their breath at this moment. In order to avoid the rain of arrows, they took the initiative to bury themselves in the water, and now there is a poisonous fire floating on the surface of the water, and the poisonous smoke blows through the tent of the imperial court camp on the north bank along the wind that suddenly changed direction for some reason, and they are trapped in the water, but they are only left with two options: suffocation and death, and burning themselves.
Looking at the red lotus fire that almost ignited the sky, and the thick black smoke rushing into the sky, and listening to the terrible curse moans under the water, Li Yunuan's expression was blank.
This is war, and there is no room for the slightest mercy.
But now that she's taken the first step, there's no more fear!
Today's Tianhuo can only be regarded as a small test!
