The scar-faced official is Shi Cheng, Shi Cheng has been in the city for free clinics in the past few days, so that many people remember his appearance, but at this time, the night is dark, and the change is too fast, the soldiers guarding the door did not recognize Shi Chenglai for a while.

"Quick, let go of the tripwire!" The veteran surnamed He was the first to react, and hurriedly beckoned his comrades to stop Crazy Horse. The city guards of the City Lord's Mansion were well-trained, far from being comparable to the officials of the yamen and the jailers guarding the prison, and in the blink of an eye, the soldiers at the sentry post reacted, and in a few breaths, three wrist-thick tripwires stood horizontally in front of Crazy Horse.

However, Crazy Horse's strength was surprisingly strong, and after hitting the tripwire, he did not lose his momentum, pulling the soldiers who were controlling the triphorse to lose their center of gravity and fall heavily to the ground one by one. Seeing that the situation was not good, several soldiers in the city gate hurriedly raised their spears to help, and finally brought down Crazy Horse. The scarecrow wrapped in black cloth on horseback also fell.

Seeing that the situation was finally under control, the veteran surnamed He finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Seeing Shi Cheng and the others dismount, he hurriedly hugged his fists, ready to step forward to say hello. But when Lao He was thinking about how to share the credit from the scar-faced official in front of him, an exclamation came from behind him, "Why is this thief a scarecrow?!" ”

Lao He was also taken aback, and was about to look back, but Shi Cheng in front of him suddenly showed a strange smile. Lao He suddenly felt a strong uneasiness in his heart, but Shi Cheng didn't give him time to think about the situation. Shi Cheng secretly accumulated true qi in his palm after dismounting, and at this time, with a wave of his palm, several ice needles broke out of the air. In an instant, Lao He and the city guards behind him fell down one after another, unconscious.

After stuning all the soldiers at the sentry in the city, Shi Cheng hurriedly glanced at his two companions, and the three of them immediately mounted their horses and rushed at full speed outside the city gate.

After the three of them rushed through the urn city, Shi Cheng and Tie Mian glanced at each other, and the two of them lightly hit a palm out of thin air according to the number of roads agreed before, and the palm wind of the two exploded after colliding in mid-air, and the strong shock wave shook several soldiers out of a hundred steps.

One of the leading ten generals was seriously injured, but he still wanted to raise his knife and rush at the three of them, Shi Cheng pointed out a finger in the air, and penetrated the "Shenque Point" of the ten generals through his armor, and the ten generals suddenly lost control of his body, fell to the ground, and could no longer move. Shi Cheng and the three of them each clapped their hands on their horses, and the three horses finally rushed out of Yunqiu City. The soldiers stationed on the city wall fired arrows at the three people, but they were all knocked down by the iron face behind the palace, but they couldn't help the three of them at all.

Soon, the fireworks of the alarm illuminated the sky above the west gate of Yunqiu City.

At this time, in the City Lord's Mansion, Gao Yan's face was gloomy, and he kept walking around in a study. One of his staff, a man named Guo Ren, said to him: "Don't worry, don't worry, after getting the news that the stone thief and others had escaped from prison, the students immediately ordered the city guards of the four gates to keep a close guard. Now the entire Yunqiu City is like an iron bucket, and the officers and soldiers in the city have all been mobilized, even a fly should not want to run out. I heard that the Qincha guards have also begun to move, although the horseman surnamed Sun has the intention to protect the stone thief, but now that this kind of thing has happened, he will not dare not stand in the same boat with your benefactor. ”

Gao Yan snorted coldly: "Although the martial artist surnamed Sun is a Beijing official sent by the Criminal Procuratorate, but the martial artist is a martial artist, and this official is the Shangcheng City Lord of the Sixth Grade, so there is no need to be afraid of him at all!" What I'm worried about is that Shi Cheng, if it was an ordinary prisoner who went missing in the prison, it would be fine, but that Shi Cheng is a character that even Mr. An dare not underestimate, which means that this son may know a lot about ghost tricks. The two companions beside him, although Wu Neng is just a stunned young man who has not dried up, but the guy with the iron mask should not be underestimated, listening to what Mr. An said, the iron mask seems to have just arrived in the Western Desert Country, but his whereabouts are secretive, and I am afraid that he is also coming for us. Shi Cheng and Tie Mian are really in trouble. ”

Just as the master and servant were talking, there was a sudden knock at the door.

"Come in." Gao Yan said lightly.

The door opened, and it was the family member of Gao Yan's mansion who came in, he walked in respectfully, and said to Gao Yan: "Master, Mr. An is visiting secretly, and I hope that you will go back to the house to see him." ”

"Oh?" Gao Yan and Guo Ren glanced at each other. Gao Yan said to the family in front of him: "It's just in time, you go outside to prepare a sedan chair." Guo Ren, you go home with me, and let's discuss a countermeasure with Mr. An. ”

"The students obeyed."

……

The night wind is howling, and the yellow sand is bleak. On a desolate slanting road, three people and three horses were galloping westward at a rapid pace. Shi Cheng performed the art of resisting the wind, and the speed of the three of them at this time was much faster than that of ordinary horse teams.

It wasn't until he reached a barren mountain that Shi Cheng accepted the spell and stuffed a pill to restore true qi into his mouth.

"Old Shi, why did we suddenly slow down?" Wu Neng asked puzzled.

"Do you have a familiar feeling when you look at this barren mountain?" Shi Cheng asked with a smile.

Wu Neng looked puzzled and turned his head to look at Tie Mian, but Tie Mian said emotionlessly: "Don't look at me, I don't know the way." ”

Seeing this, Shi Cheng didn't sell it, "After this mountain, I walked about thirty miles forward, and when I got off the main road, it was the road to Luchi Village." Let's slow down for now, one is to let the horse rest, and the other is to give the people behind us some time to keep up with us. ”

As soon as these words came out, Wu Neng and Tie Mian were both shocked, Tie Mian thought for a moment, and asked Shi Cheng: "You just made such a big move in the city, and now you have slowed down again, is it to lead most of the forces of the government in the city to go to Green Pond Village with us?" ”

"But, didn't we find nothing last time we went to that Green Pond Village?" Wu Neng was curious in his heart, "Could it be that Lao Shi, you have found any clues." ”

"That's because I didn't think much about it last time." Speaking of this, Shi Cheng's face suddenly became serious, and a flame of anger seemed to ignite in his eyes, "If my guess is correct, tonight, we and the officials of Yunqiu City will witness something terrible together." ”

Soon after Shi Cheng and the others left, the officers of the brigade followed and rode here. Suddenly, one of the military attachés in the lead made a gesture, and the entire horse team quickly stopped.

This military attache was none other than Sun Jinyong, and when Zhao Ping saw that Sun Jinyong suddenly ordered the Qincha guards to stop pursuing, he felt strange in his heart and asked, "My lord, have you found anything?" ”

Sun Jinyong took advantage of the moonlight to look at the horseshoe prints on the road, frowned and said, "It's strange, why did the three of them suddenly slow down their march after they arrived here?" ”

Sun Jinyong raised his head and said to himself: "This Shi Cheng's behavior tonight always makes me feel weird. ”

A confidant beside Sun Jinyong asked, "My lord, will there be fraud?" ”

Sun Jinyong thought for a moment, and then asked Zhao Ping: "Ah Ping, you have also read some of the documents passed from the internal guard, and you also know some of the situations in the central and western regions of our country, in your opinion, is it possible that Shi Cheng and Tie Mian were spies sent by the Chita people?" ”

Zhao Ping was taken aback, he thought about it carefully, shook his head, and said, "My subordinates think it's unlikely." Do you suspect that what happened on the Sunrise Road could be ......"

Seeing Sun Jinyong frowning and silent, Zhao Ping's heart sank, and he hurriedly asked: "My lord, my subordinates shouldn't ask more about this matter, but ...... Is there any new information from the internal guards? ”

Sun Jinyong didn't answer, and soon, he snorted coldly: "No matter what, no matter who that Shi Cheng is, in the land of my Western Desert, forgive him and can't carve any flowers." ”

Sun Jinyong pondered for a moment, and said to the henchman who asked his opinion before: "Even if there is fraud ahead, we have to break through." Lu Qian, Zhao Ping and I will take fifty elite guards forward, and you take the rest of the people to rest here for a quarter of an hour, and then march along the hooves of the horses we left behind! ”

"Yes!"

……

When Sun Jinyong and the others continued to move forward, Shi Cheng and the others had already gone down the main road, and after the three of them rode their horses on a small road for less than a quarter of an hour, the three of them saw the oasis village full of doubts again.

At night, Green Pond Village seemed to have changed back to the uninhabited deserted village that the three of them had ever seen, there was no movement in the entire village, and the surrounding wind was like a ghost crying in the wilderness, and the Green Pond Village that the three of them saw during the day was like two worlds.

Wu Neng rubbed his eyes vigorously, patted his cheeks again, and the whole person was dumbfounded, "Lao Shi, Lao Tie, are we going the wrong way." ”

Shi Cheng sneered and strode into the village, and Wu Neng and Tie Mian also hurriedly followed him. Shi Cheng carefully looked at the wall around him, and took out a small wooden bottle from his pocket, and sprinkled the blue potion in the bottle on the wall. Soon, the entire wall glowed a dull green, and the green wall added to the eerie feeling of the silent village.

Under Wu Neng and Tie Mian's surprised gazes, Shi Cheng turned around and said softly, "This bottle of potion is made from blue core grass supplemented with silver juice and lantern flowers. ”

Hearing this, Wu Neng's eyes were still full of doubts, but Tie Mian's pupils shrank suddenly.

Wu Nenggang wanted to open his mouth to ask something, but saw Shi Cheng walk to the door of a small courtyard, his right hand was palmed, and with a loud bang, the entire wooden door was smashed by Shi Cheng in the air.

"Who?" Soon, a person came out of the room, carrying an oil lamp in his hand, looking lazy.

Wu Neng recognized the person, the young farmer in front of him was called Sun Aer, the last villager Shi Cheng had seen when he came to Luchi Village last time. When he saw Sun Aer, Wu Neng breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, although he didn't know what the meaning of the green wall was, but the fact that there were people in the village undoubtedly made his heart relax a lot.

However, in the next moment, something that shocked Wu Neng happened. Shi Cheng suddenly slashed out with a palm, and the extremely sharp true qi was like a long rainbow, slamming towards Sun Aer.

"Old stone! What are you ......" Wu Neng was horrified in his heart, but before he could finish speaking, something even more surprising happened to him. Sun Aer's face changed, he raised his hands, and a purple wall of light appeared in front of him, Shi Cheng's palm force hit the wall of light, the wall of light and the palm print both exploded, and the strong shock wave instantly turned the entire courtyard and the houses in the courtyard into ruins.

Shi Cheng looked at Sun A'er, whose face was uncertain, and said coldly: "Maybe the original owner of this courtyard is indeed a lazy man, and to some extent, you can imitate it vividly." But you're not a real farmer after all, and if I were you, I'd at best choose to be lazy in my farm work instead of sleeping until three o'clock in the season. The main crop in the Western Desert is wheat, which is sown in autumn and harvested in the following summer. It is the autumn of the Southern Wilderness, the season of sowing, and no matter how lazy the farmer is, it is impossible to hide at home and sleep at this time. Otherwise, if you can't pay Tian Fu in the second year, you will not only have to be punished. ”

Sun A'er sneered, grinned, and suddenly jumped forward, carrying light skills and heading towards the center of the village. Iron Mask drew his sword out of its sheath, and a sword qi slashed towards Sun A'er in mid-air quickly and incoherently, but Sun A'er twisted his body lightly in mid-air like a ghost, and narrowly avoided it.

A trace of murderous intent flashed in Tie Mian's eyes, and he raised his anger and chased in the direction of Sun Aer's escape, followed by Shi Cheng and Wu Neng. The village was not large, and the three of them quickly chased them to the clearing in the middle of the village. Sun Ah Er stood by a well, and did not seem to plan to escape.

Seeing that the three of them were chasing after him, Sun Aer showed a strange smile on his face, and muttered in his mouth, as if he was summoning something. Soon, the walls of the courtyard were knocked down, and the smiling villagers came out from behind the broken walls, led by the village chief Yu Miao. The villagers' eyes glowed red, their eyeballs seemed to be wrapped in blood, and their bodies were covered with black gas, and their blue and purple skin covered their bodies. The simple villagers in the day were like demons crawling out of hell at this time, and surrounded Shi Cheng and the three of them.

Shi Cheng looked at Wu Neng, who was in a trance, and the silent and somewhat terrifying iron face, pulled out the dead branch on his waist, and said to his two companions: "It seems that this is the so-called ghost village that died in vain." ”
