Chapter Twenty-Eight: Overnight Attack
When the big man heard what the thin monkey said, his head naturally swept to the left and right, and a fierce light flashed in his eyes. The stall owners around the thin monkey were swept away by this fierce light, and they were so frightened that they hurriedly lowered their heads and did not dare to squeak.
Yang Ning, who was standing in the distance, saw this person's appearance clearly when the big man turned his head:
"Hey, isn't this the one I met on the way to Nantu County back then, the bandit leader of Howling Wind Mountain: Zhu Hu? Well, the iconic scar on his face is gone, and his appearance has changed a little, but the murderous look in his eyes has not changed. The few people around him are also bandits? ”
"Aren't they wanted criminals by the dynasty? How could they have quietly infiltrated Nantu County? The gates of the city are heavily guarded by the county guards, and they appear in the bazaar in such a big way? Why did Wu Xianguang get involved with this gang of bandits again? It's a bit of a headache. ”
The group of people in front of the thin monkey stall were actually bandits that Yang Ning had seen before, and they also blatantly appeared in the market with the children of rich merchants in the county, this kind of thing is up for discussion. Yang Ning's brows furrowed, realizing that things were not that simple.
"Uncle, please don't shoot anymore, if you keep shooting, the villain's stall will be demolished by you, this is the guy that the villain lives and eats! Please be merciful! ”
The stall he relied on for food was about to turn into a pile of broken wood and waste, and the thin monkey was both flattering and pretending, begging Zhu Hu and others to show mercy.
"Your uncle! If you want to lie to me, uncle, what I hate most is the person who dares to deceive my uncle, you are trying to find death! ”
Zhu Hu stretched out his index finger and poked the thin monkey's nose hard and scolded, his eyes were full of fierce light, and his whole body unconsciously exuded a thick evil aura.
Rushed by the evil qi on Zhu Hu's body, the thin monkey suddenly felt that his body was cold, as if he had fallen into ice water, and a layer of cold sweat oozed from his head.
Seeing this, Yang Ning didn't linger any longer, nor did he have the interest to continue wandering, so he turned around and returned to the camp at the forging place. On Zhu Hu's body, Yang Ning felt uneasy. And his spiritual power secretly probed Zhu Hu, clearly showing that Zhu Hu was not a monk, but really a martial artist, at most a martial artist with high martial arts, and he would not have much damage to himself, but he couldn't help but feel uneasy about him, which made Yang Ning feel very incomprehensible.
Yang Ning turned around for a moment, Zhu Hu's eyes swept to him, but countless residents in the market came and went, Zhu Hu didn't see Yang Ning, thinking that he was just a resident of Nantu County passing by, so he didn't care, and Wu Xianguang received Zhu Hu and his gang with a trembling smile, completely ignoring that Yang Ning had passed by here and seen them.
After returning to the forging place, the uneasiness in the dark always lingered, and the strange atmosphere of Nantu County during this time gave Yang Ning a feeling that a storm was coming.
Unaware of this strange atmosphere, the inhabitants of Nantu County continue to live as usual, as if Nantu County is an unbreakable fortified city guarding their home.
Half a moon passed on this day, and that night, the sky was pitch black, and neither the stars nor the moon knew where they had hidden, and not half of them showed their shy little faces, only scattered and scattered, and a few lights were sparsely lit in the cool breeze of the county, and the whole county was silent. It's really a murderous night when the moon is dark and the wind is high!
Taking off the robe on his body, Yang Ning stretched his arm, stretched his waist, and was about to go to bed to rest. Suddenly, a rapid sound of gongs sounded in the quiet night sky, and the sound was heard far away, waking up countless residents who had fallen asleep early.
"It's out of the water! Walk the water! The Wang's shop on West Street caught fire, and the Li Ji tailor and Ruyue Restaurant next to it were all set on fire, and the fire was skyrocketing! ”
"Ahh The largest merchant inn in the east gate was burned, and at least thirty percent of the residents were buried in the fire! ”
"The Hong family's compound and the Li family's house in the south have caught fire one after another, and they are about to affect an entire street!"
"Hey, a lot of houses and shops have been burned down to the north."
"Ahh Yes! Yes! It's those bastards who kill a thousand knives! So unconscionable! So inhuman! Set fire everywhere and beware of being struck by lightning! Yes! Come and put out the fire! ”
Bursts of screams, scolding, and shouts for fire resounded one after another in the four directions of the county town, with the heart-rending cries of children crying for their fathers and mothers, as well as the cries of the victims' relatives.
Yang Ning rushed to the window of the hut all of a sudden, looked up and looked into the distance, only to see that the sky above Nantu County was red, and there was billowing black smoke in the red light that went straight to the sky.
"It's coming. All I'm worried about is that I don't know what's going to happen next. Alas......"
The sudden change in Nantu County made Yang Ning completely sleepy, and hurriedly woke up his son Yang An, and packed up some valuable things, ready to deal with all emergencies at any time.
Yang Ning's guess was not wrong, when the fire was soaring into the sky, a deafening sound of rushing and killing sounded outside the city of Nantu County: "Rush!" Kill! The brothers in Nantu County have already done it! ”
"Break Nantu County!"
"Nantu County is ours!"
The 300,000 troops of the Norvi Dynasty, who had been waiting outside the city for half the night, immediately raised their swords and guns like a tide to attack frantically when they received the signal that should be sent from the county.
Tonight is definitely a sleepless night!
"Tuk Tuk ......"
At this moment, a fast-paced knock on the door came into the ears of Yang Ning and his son. Opening the door of the hut with surprise, Yang Ning saw Tang Xiong's burly figure standing outside the door in the firelight in the distance.
"Brother Tang, it's you. It seems that something big has happened in the county, why don't you stay in your house and wait for news, but come to me? ”
Seeing Tang Xiong in this situation, Yang Ning was very surprised.
"Hehe, there are a lot of people outside, let's talk in your room."
At this time, the officials of the county guard and some blacksmiths of the forging office walked out of the house where they lived one after another to inquire about the development of the matter. Tang Xiong reached out and grabbed Yang Ning's arm and was about to step into the house. Yang Ning quietly ran the exercises and wanted to shake Tang Xiong's palm, but found that the place where he was caught was like an iron hoop, and it couldn't be shaken open at all.
"Hehe, isn't Brother Yang surprised by what happened tonight, and also curious about my identity, and very surprised that I suddenly came to you now?"
"Don't worry, don't be nervous, let's sit down first, and I'll tell you in detail. When you've listened to it, you'll understand it all. ”
Without Yang Ning parting his words, Tang Xiong dragged Yang Ning into the hut, put his hand behind the Buddha, closed the door, pulled him to the chair and sat down, and said with a smile.
"My identity, to put it bluntly, is an inner disciple of the Ten Thousand Soldiers Sect, who was assigned by the sect to the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion of the Southern Imperial Dynasty Branch for training, and is responsible for managing the pavilion master of this branch. When he went out to look for a precious mineral material, he accidentally came here, and he also accidentally discovered that Brother Yang had an extremely high talent for refining. ”
"My current cultivation is the seventh level of spiritual products, if I am not mistaken, Brother Yang's current realm is the seventh level of mortal products, and your son also has a third-level cultivation of ordinary products. My intention is very simple and direct, I just want to invite Brother Yang to join us in the Ten Thousand Soldiers Pavilion. ”
After sitting down, Tang Xiong went straight to the point and explained his identity and intentions.
"Ten Thousand Soldiers? Southern Dynasty? Ten Thousand Soldiers' Court? Isn't this world full of dynasties, ruled by dynasties? How to ......"
Hearing Tang Xiong's self-introduction, Yang Ning showed a blank look.
"Ahaha...... It seems that Brother Yang doesn't know the true situation of the Lost Star Domain. However, then again, in a remote place like Nantu County, where all kinds of books and knowledge are lagging behind others, it is really possible to only know the rule of the dynasty and not know the real situation. ”
"Well, it's very likely that the city will be broken tonight, but it's not something that can be done in a moment. Brother Yang, I'll take a little time to help you popularize the knowledge of the Lost Star Domain. ”
