Chapter 117: Wine Bag Rice Bag
In the sound of gongs and bangs, another voice warned loudly: "There is only one gate in and out of the Black Rock City, and once the city is broken, everyone will be doomed together! So don't think about escaping! In addition, the city lord has ordered that all those who plan to escape over the city walls will be shot and killed!"
This loud warning voice suddenly made many people in the medicine hall look bad. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Most of the people in the Medicine Hall, as old residents of Blackstone City, knew that the warning voice was not wrong at all. When Blackstone City was first built, it was used as a war fortress, so there was only one gate in and out of the entire city, instead of ordinary cities, which had four gates: east, west, south, and north.
In this case, if the bandits blocked the gate of Blackstone City, everyone would indeed not even have a place to escape.
Of course, some people will say that if you want to escape for your life, you don't necessarily have to go through the city gate, you can also climb over the wall. This is true, because the walls of Blackstone City are relatively low, only about three zhang high.
It's just that for ordinary people, if there is no tool to climb such a height as Sanzhang, it is impossible to climb it at all, and even if there are good tools in hand, the speed of climbing cannot be fast.
The warning had already made it clear that there would be archers standing guard on the city walls, and if anyone dared to escape over the wall, they would be shot directly.
In the law of the Great Qian, if it is a wartime, or a situation like the present situation where bandits are attacking the city, everyone is obliged to help defend the city, and if they escape at this time, they will not only die in vain if they are shot, but also affect their families.
After all the circumstances, it seems that everyone has only one way to go - they can only survive with Blackstone City.
But everyone is usually a small people who are busy begging for a living, and at this time, let them go into battle to fight, but few people can face it calmly. Therefore, for a while, many people in the medicine hall were very white, their legs trembled slightly, and they couldn't move for a while.
Zichen and Nie Xiaoying were recognized by everyone as the backbone at this time, almost subconsciously, and everyone turned their eyes to the two of them, waiting for them to come up with an idea.
Nie Xiaoying bit her lip, thought for a while, and said, "Don't panic, everyone, go home first, and settle down at home." ā
Zichen nodded in agreement: "Those who should go home go home, and those who should stay behind continue to stay in the medicine hall to maintain order." ā
Zichen gave the order with a clear mind, and everyone immediately knew what they were going to do, and after answering, they dispersed.
And Zichen didn't drag the mud and water, so he had to leave. At this time, Nie Xiaohuan chased after him and wanted to go with Zichen.
Nie Xiaoying wanted to stop it, but thinking of Zichen's strength, Nie Xiaohuan was the safest to follow Zichen, so she didn't make a sound.
Zichen couldn't resist Nie Xiaohuan, so he took her and walked quickly in the direction of the city.
At this time, the chaos in Blackstone City became more and more chaotic, and many people were scurrying around like headless flies. Fortunately, at this time, the people in the city were all in the same boat, there was no way out, and no one took advantage of the fire to rob as if they were dying.
After shuttling through the crowd for a while, Zichen suddenly heard someone shouting to him: "Shaoxia, are you here too?"
Zichen stopped, followed the prestige, and sure enough, he saw Liu Yu and others from the brother hunting team coming in a hurry, and it was estimated that they were also going to the city.
In the face of Zichen, who had saved their lives, Liu Yu and the others were respectful, their eyes were full of awe, and after they came over, they didn't dare to get too close to Zichen.
Nie Xiaohuan stepped forward and asked Liu Yu and asked, "Captain Liu, are you going to go to the city to see the situation?"
Liu Yu nodded, looked at Zichen respectfully, and said, "We also heard the order of the city lord, so we walked out of the residence, planning to go up the wall to have a look. ā
This is not the time to talk nonsense, Zichen said: "Since this is the case, then let's go together." ā
When Liu Yu and others heard this, they were all overjoyed. No one knows how this disaster of bandits attacking the city will develop, if you can follow such a powerful cultivation as Zichen, not to mention the rest, at least the chances of safety are much higher!
Under the great joy, Liu Yu and the others did not talk nonsense, and immediately listened to Zichen's words and followed Zichen towards the city......
......
The night was dark, the stars and the moon were dark, but the head of Blackstone City had already been illuminated by torches, as if it were day.
Under the bright firelight, the city guards at the head of the city were extremely nervous, their breathing was unconsciously heavy, and the torches and swords in their hands were trembling slightly;
In contrast, on the open space outside Blackstone City, although the number of more than 100 bandits was small, they laughed loudly and were full of momentum, and even a few bastards rushed directly to the front, pulled open their pants, and soaked hot urine against the city wall, but they were not attacked by bows and arrows.
There has been no war in this Black Rock City for hundreds of years, and the city defense team is usually just putting on a show, just mixing food, and many veterans are mixed into wine bags and rice bags, and it is difficult to lift swords, let alone fight.
As a result, among the city guards at this time, many veterans did not even perform as well as the new soldiers, and their legs could not stop trembling when they saw the desolate people in the city having fun. If it weren't for the fact that the lord of the city, who usually saw the dragon without seeing the head and the end, also put on armor and stood on the head of the city in person, they were afraid that they would immediately throw down their torches and weapons and flee.
Compared with the unbearable city guards, the martial artists and young men who came to assist in defending the city performed much better. Among these young warriors, many of them are hunters, and they are used to fighting and bloodshed, and although they are not easy to face the imposing bandits in the city, at least they are not timid.
At this time, Zichen and the others had already gone to the city.
Mixed with the young men who came to assist in defending the city, Lao Bai of the hunting team saw the bear-like appearance of the city guards, and immediately took a sip and scolded unceremoniously: "Phew! A group of wine bags and rice bags that only know how to eat and drink!"
Liu Yu also sighed: "I think back then, Daqian's army was powerful and unstoppable, even the city defense army defending the city was a hero." It is really sad that today, the army of the dignified army has fallen to this point......"
Zichen frowned, the unbearable performance of these city defense soldiers was naturally also seen by him, but at this time, his gaze fell on the city lord in armor.
The city lord has a fat head and big ears, a wide body and a fat body, and his face is full of sweat, looking at his upright belly, he knows that he is used to being pampered on weekdays, and he really admires that someone can make such a wide armor that fits him to fit his fat figure.
Zichen keenly saw that the city lord's thick legs were constantly trembling, and his eyes were full of fear when he looked at the city. Zichen shook his head speechlessly, almost suspecting that the armor might be too heavy, so heavy that the fat city lord couldn't move, otherwise he was afraid that he would crawl with a rolling belt and disappear.
Shaking his head, Zichen slowly cast his gaze on the bandits under the city. Although they were far apart, Zichen had already sensed the existence of at least two cultivators whose Yuan Force aura was stronger than him among the more than a hundred desolate bandits!
