Chapter 258: My fate is up to me
By daybreak, the entrance to the ancient ruins was fully revealed.
It is a towering stone gate with a simple shape. Even at a great distance, you need to look up to see the door hidden in the clouds, so that the viewer is aware of his own humility and insignificance.
From the moment of manifestation, a crack opened in the stone door.
Even if it's just a gap, it's enough for thousands of troops to pass without hindrance.
At this time, more than 30 people gathered in the open space in front of the entrance, they were the world of various small and medium-sized sects, and they had formed an alliance with the Shushan scholars led by Wei Junxian since the Danzhou ruins last year.
said that it was an alliance, but in fact, only Wei Jun was envious.
The monks ranged in age, from the younger ones in their early twenties to the older ones with gray hair. The three and three got together and talked in a low voice, but they didn't take a second look at the entrance to the ruins that had been opened close at hand.
Wei Junxian has not arrived, who dares to enter first?
When the morning sun was rising, Ouyang Liuyun and other scholars came slowly with a carriage.
The carriage stopped more than ten steps away from the various sects, the curtain opened, and four people walked down from the carriage.
They are Wei Junxian, Zheng Furong of Wushuang City, and two people wearing hooded cloaks that completely cover their heads and faces.
One of them had a rope made of gold silk tied around his waist, and the other end of the rope was tied around Zheng Furong's waist.
Wei Junxian appeared, and all the walkers came over to greet each other with their fists.
"I'm sorry to keep you waiting."
As he spoke, the sound of an eagle crying could be heard overhead.
When everyone looked up, they saw four black dots in the sky rapidly approaching this direction.
When the distance was closer, everyone saw that it was four giant eagles, and one person sat on each giant eagle's back.
The giant eagle flew above everyone's heads and did not fall, but circled in the air.
In the next moment, the four people sitting cross-legged on the back of the eagle jumped down from a height of dozens of feet like meteors.
Boom, boom, boom...
There were four roars in succession, sand and gravel splattered, and dust flew up.
The flat grass was smashed out of four and a half deep pits, and four figures jumped out of the pits, and with arrogant laughter in the air, they swept straight in front of everyone and rushed straight to the entrance of the ruins.
"Senior brother."
Ouyang Liuyun's eyes flickered and looked at Wei Junxian.
"It's okay, the demon Ru Mao doesn't know how to drink blood, so don't pay attention to it. When you get to the ruins, it's not too late to figure out what is real and false inside. ”
Wei Junxian waved his hand.
"The demons have already entered first, and we can't wait for anyone to be left behind. Fellow travelers, please! ”
Wei Junxian walked towards the crowd and made a gesture of please towards the entrance of the ruins.
The demons who entered first were cruel and cunning, and they might set up an ambush at the entrance of the ruins and secretly attacked.
Although they all knew that Wei Junxian regarded the crowd as a stone to ask for directions, he didn't dare to show any dissatisfaction, and each of them was on guard and walked towards the entrance of the ruins.
The crowd walked cautiously into the ruins, but they were not ambushed by the demons.
Then the scholars of Shushan also entered the ruins in turn, and Wei Junxian stayed at the end.
Turning his head and glancing in the direction where the southeast bandits were stationed, he didn't see the figure he was expecting.
Wei Junxian shook his head and sighed secretly.
"Rong Fei! Haven't you arrived yet? Or are you afraid to show your face? Ouyang praised you to the fullest, but didn't you even have the courage to meet me? Murong and Bai Zizai, those two idiots, were scared last time, did they rush to the doctor? Hehehe. ”
……
"Lao Liao, you have a lot of ghost ideas on weekdays, but you have an idea, what the hell is going on now."
He Guangchang, the commander of the Linzhou Right Guard, led his subordinates to move the entire right guard's battalion to the side of the Linzhou Left Guard as early as two days ago, which seemed to give him a little sense of security. In the past two days, Lai refused to leave Liao Yong's camp under the command of the left guard, saying that he wanted Liao Yong to come up with a charter.
Liao Yong's appearance at this time was not much better than He Guangchang, his eyes were swollen, his face was sallow, and his expression was tired.
In fact, it is no wonder that these two commanders are so at a loss, and anyone who is besieged on three sides by hundreds of thousands of murderous bandits who do not blink an eye is afraid that they will be like sitting on pins and needles, and they will be in fear all day long.
Liao Yong glared at He Guangchang, who was restless, irritably, then raised his head and closed his eyes, letting out a long sigh.
"If you ask me, who can I ask? Alas~"
At this time, the situation in front of the two of them was that they were besieged by hundreds of thousands of Linzhou bandits on three sides, and Su Yunzhong, the Taishou of Linzhou, was eager to send dozens of waves of messengers every day, asking the two to send troops to exterminate the rebels.
He Su Yunzhong said lightly, the two guards together are only in their early 10,000s, and they rushed over to give the bandits a tooth sacrifice? Send military funds?
Fighting a field war with the bandits in Linzhou is definitely not a success, and the best way is actually to gather the city and defend it, waiting for reinforcements sent by the imperial court.
But the forbidden army defending Kyoto City had just been taken away by Jing Yuanhou and went to the south to suppress bandits. Some time ago, due to the assassination of the old Shoufu, it led to rumors that the edict had been tampered with, and the current saint was not properly enthroned. For example, today, the Yongdang forces in various places have raised their heads one after another, shouting the slogan of entering Beijing to rebel.
The world is about to be in turmoil, and who can take care of a small Linzhou.
In Liao Yong's view, it is death to sit back and wait for death now, and it is also death to be trapped in Fengxian.
The left and right are dead words, the general trend is like this, how can he be a small guard commander to enable the change left and right?
But Liao Yong is also worthy of being known as a wise general, and there has been a crazy thought circling in his mind for the past few days.
It's just that if this move is successful, it's fine, but if it is defeated, it will be a disaster of raiding the family and exterminating the clan.
At this moment, he was forced by He Guangchang to be a little anxious, and the news he just got that the Linzhou bandits had begun to approach the three cities. Taking a deep breath, Liao Yong suddenly opened his eyes, quietly reached under the table with his right hand to hold the handle of the knife, stared at He Guangchang and said.
"Lao He, I have a plan, or I can save the lives of our brothers."
"Oh, tell me about it."
He Guangchang suddenly perked up when he heard this, and he approached and asked eagerly.
"It's better for us to do the opposite..."
"Against what?"
An unfamiliar voice sounded in the back of Liao Yong's head, and he got goosebumps all over his body.
In the next moment, Liao Yong pulled out the treasure knife with a sigh, and swept behind him without looking back. Then, regardless of whether he cut people or not, he rushed forward and jumped over the low table in front of him, rolled a few times and stabilized his body by the tent.
Suddenly turned around and saw Rong Fei standing there.
"Who are you?"
Liao Yong protected the horizontal knife in front of him and asked sharply.
He Guangchang seemed to be frightened stupid, and was stunned for a long time before he shouted, and rushed towards Liao Yong with a roll, shouting at the same time.
"Someone! Come..."
Rong Fei used his pseudo-Haoran qi to directly seal He Guangchang's mouth, and then sighed secretly in his heart.
This is the commander in charge of the first guard?
It's a fucking straw bale.
That guy named Liao Yong is quite brave and brave, but listening to the meaning of what he just said, this guy is not a loyal and patriotic person.
Syllable~
Rong Fei didn't talk nonsense, took out the waist card of the Immortal Arrest Division and threw it in front of Liao Yong.
"The Immortal Division catches the head of Rong Fei, and Rong Shou is upright."
Liao Yong looked at the waist card of the Immortal Hunting Division that fell on the ground in front of him, his eyes flickering.
I didn't finish my words just now, but I don't know if this Rong Fei can guess the meaning of the words?
As for Rong Fei's identity, Liao Yong did not have the slightest doubt.
Liao Yong had seen the wanted portraits of the three of them, and at the same time, he knew more about the cultivation world and ancient ruins than the bandits in Linzhou.
It can be confirmed that the person in front of him is Rong Fei himself.
After weighing it in his heart for a moment, Liao Yong finally didn't have the courage to tear his face. Put down the horizontal knife in his hand, stand up and bow to Rong Fei.
"Liao Yong, the commander of the left guard of Linzhou, has seen Fencheng Bo."
"Woo... Woo..."
He Guangchang, who was sealed by Haoran Qi and had the ability to move, twisted his body and made a whining sound.
Rong Fei casually removed the prohibition on He Guangchang, and then smiled at the two.
"It's urgent, forgive the two adults for the abruptness."
"There, there, Fencheng Boyan is serious."
"They are all officials of the same dynasty, so I will get straight to the point. Keeping this right, first, is to solve the urgent needs of the two adults. The second is that there is a splashing merit to be given to the two adults. ”
"Oh, please sit down and talk about it."
Liao Yong pointed to the main seat and invited Rong Fei to take a seat.
As for what words and words are to be followed by the word 'anti' just now, Liao Yong didn't mention it, and Rong Fei didn't ask.
As if that sentence had never appeared in the account.
And He Guangchang, the straw bag, heard that not only could he live, but he also had the credit to earn, so he didn't remember anything.
……
After returning from Duan Hong's main account, Zhang Jun summoned Zhang Cuilan, Li Yun, Second Sister You and others together.
"Now there are two paths in front of me, and the survival of everyone in Xiangshanzhai is at stake, and I don't know how to choose. Let's come up with an idea together. ”
An hour ago, Duan Hong gathered all the bandit leaders and announced that he would attack Yancheng at noon today.
Rong Fei had long anticipated the actions of the bandits in Linzhou, so before leaving, he gave Zhang Jun two suggestions.
One is to rebel against Dingduanhong, and his life will be worry-free in the near future.
The second went to Feng County to assist Su Yun in guarding the city in the name of the Immortal Division. As for whether the city can be defended or not, and what should be done after it is defended, Rong Fei did not say.
After telling everyone the two suggestions given by Rong Fei, everyone also looked at each other, not knowing how to choose.
In the final analysis, they are just a group of young people who have not been trained by many world events, and do not have enough experience and vision to make reasonable judgments.
After being silent for a long time, Li Yun was the first to ask.
"What do you mean?"
The adult in Li Yun's mouth is naturally Rong Fei.
"Alas!"
Zhang Jun let out a long sigh.
"Adults say everyone has the right to choose, let us make our own decisions."
Syllable!
Zhang Cuilan, who had a pungent personality, slapped the table, stood up and said angrily.
"What kind of bullshit adult, you pat yourself on the ass and walk cleanly, leave us here and leave us alone, to fend for ourselves. Phew! Next time I see him, I'm going to slap him with two big ears. ”
"Cuilan, after all, the adults are kind to us, don't be disrespectful."
Zhang Jun frowned and said unhappily.
"Anyway, I don't want to stay here, there are a bunch of hungry wolves outside who don't have a good heart, and sooner or later one day they will eat us to the stomach and there will be no scum left."
"Then Cuilan, you mean to go to Shoufeng County?"
"What can we do to defend Feng County, if the emperor Lao'er and the surname Chang know our identity, it will not be a dead end in the end."
"This doesn't work, that doesn't work, what do you want?"
Zhang Jun scolded with some irritation.
"Brother, why do we have to live under the fence and look at people's faces. Why can't you do it yourself? ”
