Chapter 948: Search
In the chaotic battlefield, Kong Qingshan's roar did not overpower the crazy beast roar and people's panicked shouts, what could be heard was only limited to a radius of more than ten meters around him, and the guards in farther places couldn't hear what he was saying at all, seeing Kong Qingshan's sword point, and thinking of the bearded man's shout just now, those guards who were still hesitating before no longer hesitated, and joined the fleeing team to rush to the mine as fast as possible, where it was their second and last line of defense, and some captains in charge shouted loudly while running that their men should not be separated, and enter the mine as soon as possible to prepare for close combatγ
Seeing this scene, Kong Qingshan's heart was completely cold, he swung his sword and cut a monkey that jumped in front of him into two pieces, turned around, and looked at the group of beasts gathered under the city wall waiting to climb up, Kong Qingshan roared sadly, and was about to jump off the city wall and die, but was stopped by the guards.
Ignoring Kong Qingshan's resistance, the guards forcibly pulled Kong Qingshan and rushed under the city wall, wanting to take him to a relatively safe place. The leader of the guards said to Kong Qingshan: "My lord, calm down, we haven't lost yet, we still have a chance, so you can't die, everyone is still waiting for you to command us against the beast tide." β
Kong Qingshan calmed down and stopped resisting, and followed the guards to rush to the mine in the distance, but he knew very well that they had no chance, without the deterrence of wind rage, not to mention the beasts, even the dragon that appeared out of nowhere was not something they could deal with.
The captain of the guard obviously knew this, and lowered his voice and said in Kong Qingshan's ear: "My lord, it's really not good, we can still leave through the secret passage, as long as we are alive, we will have a chance to take revenge." β
Kong Qingshan's eyes lit up, the betrayal of the bearded man just now made him lose his calm. I forgot about the secret passage. Now I am reminded by the captain of the guard. Kong Qingshan, who thought he was going to die, grabbed a glimmer of life, nodded vigorously and said, "You are right, leave Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood." β
The captain of the guard said with some concern: "The city wall is lost, the beasts will come in soon, the secret passage is in the depths of the mine, it will take time." β
Kong Qingshan's expression was fierce: "Pass the order, let the others guard the mine, and get those miners out to help." Be sure to keep the herd out for a while. The captain of the guard understood what Kong Qingshan meant, nodded, and ordered his men to convey the order, but after entering the mine, they disappeared from everyone's field of vision and disappeared.
Ouyang Feng didn't expect that his impromptu decision would have such a big impact, and even directly lead to the collapse of the city wall defenses, but he didn't have time to rejoice, because the next thing he would face would be the attack of the crazy beast herd and the Flame Mine Guard, so they didn't enter the mine cave with them. Instead, they quickly searched the canyon for all possible places where their captured friends were being held.
I searched a few buildings, but found nothing. Moreover, those buildings were basically the residences of the guards, and seeing that the guards on the city wall in the distance had almost withdrawn, and the beasts occupied most of the city wall, Ouyang Feng was anxious.
Wei Canglan said in an unquestioning tone: "Time is pressing, let's search separately if we are not familiar with the environment here." β
Wei Canglan turned his head to the old man of the Huafeng Chamber of Commerce and said, "Let your people separate, search every room, rescue those who are detained, and then go to that tower to meet, remember, you must ensure the safety of the other party." The old man nodded, and ordered his guards to divide into five straps, each team of ten people, and split up to search.
Ouyang Feng, Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian were not separated, and the three of them ran directly to the deepest part of the canyon, where there were several different buildings. Soon, there were no more humans on the city walls, and they were completely occupied by wild beasts, but these gorillas and other beasts did not pursue the frantically fleeing humans, but stayed on the city walls and kept roaring at the crowd in the distance.
Without the threat of the wind crossbow, Jiaolong came to the city wall without fear, and looked coldly at everything in the canyon through the city wall, a pair of scarlet eyes kept searching for Ouyang Feng's figure, under it, there were more than a dozen rhinoceros constantly hitting the solid city gate, and there were countless beasts waiting in line behind him, just waiting for the city gate to open and rush into the canyon.
Shuttling through the chaotic crowd, Ouyang Feng was sweating profusely, he didn't expect things to turn out like this, he had to find his imprisoned companion as soon as possible, but the three of them had already found several places but had nothing to gain, if the beasts came in, they didn't know who their own people were and who were the enemies, once they were found by the beasts first, the consequences would be unimaginable.
At the critical moment, Wei Canglan's calmness and calmness played a role, kicked a guard passing by, and asked viciously by the neck of the other party: "Say, where is the person you arrested a few days ago locked up?"
The guard was kicked and blinded, and it took him a while to react, and when he saw that it was his cousin Kong Wu who was in charge, he held back the anger in his heart and said, "How do I know? I'm just an overseer, you should ask your cousin." After saying that, he broke free from Wei Canglan's hand and continued to flee, looking for other companions.
Being reminded by Wei Canglan like this, Ouyang Feng's eyes lit up, he looked around, and glanced at Nangong Angel, the two of them shot to stop a guard who seemed to have some identity, without saying a word, they first gave a fat beating, and when the other party completely lost his temper, Ouyang Feng asked: "Where is the person you arrested a few days ago?"
This guard is a squad leader, and he belongs to Kong Qingshan's personal guard, he was by Kong Qingshan's side just now, and he was very clear about everything that happened, when he saw Wei Canglan, he said coldly: "Kong Wu, you actually escaped from the battle and incited others, you are betraying, you are betraying the alliance, you will be punished." β
There was no time to talk nonsense, Wei Canglan stabbed the guard captain's thigh with a sword, and said sharply: "It's my business to punish or not, hurry up and say it, otherwise I'll kill you now." β
The captain of the guard screamed, without the arrogance and anger just now, he could see that if he didn't say that the bearded man would really kill himself, although he was reluctant, the captain of the guard team still pointed to an inconspicuous building not far away and said, "It's there." Wei Canglan and Ouyang Feng glanced at each other, and regardless of whether the captain of the guard would report the news, the three of them strode towards the warehouse-like building.
Seeing that the bearded man was taking people to the secret prison, the captain of the guard team gave up the idea of informing the guards there to take the people inside to the secret passage of the mine to meet the steward, and dragged his injured leg to the entrance of the nearby mine and fled for his life alone.
Coming to the secret prison that the captain of the guard team said, Ouyang Feng and the three of them were stopped by the guards who stayed behind at the door, Ouyang Feng was a little excited, his friend was inside, and he listened to the meaning of the captain of the guard team just now that his friend was not dead, he was still alive, he was in a slightly slower mood, he couldn't wait more and more, and said loudly to the guards inside the closed gate: " When is it, hurry up and open the door, the steward will let us pick up the people inside, don't wait stupidly, the beasts will rush in soon, get out of here, or you will all die. β
The guards of the secret prison have long been informed that the beast tide is attacking, but they are loyal to their duties, but they dare not leave their posts without permission, you must know that the people imprisoned inside have repeatedly explained their importance, and they must ensure that they will not escape and ensure the safety of their lives, now listening to Ouyang Feng say this, they also saw that many people have withdrawn, and they feel that what Ouyang Feng said should be true, and there is also the bearded cousin who is in charge of the house to come and bring people in person, so they opened the door.
Wei Canglan was also a little accustomed to the role he was playing now, and as soon as he entered, he slapped the guard without saying a word, and then said to the other guards who were waiting with weapons in hand: "What are you all doing in a daze, hurry up and help defend, otherwise the beasts will rush in and don't want to get out of here alive." β
The person in charge here walked up to Wei Canglan, hesitated for a moment and said, "What about the people inside?"
Wei Canglan said angrily: "You don't have to worry about those, we're here to deal with it, hurry up." β
Listening to the roars of more and more beasts in the distance, the steward no longer hesitated, and waved his hand to his subordinates and said, "Let's go, let's go to the mine." β
After all the guards left, Ouyang Feng first closed the door, and then the three of them searched room by room, but after searching for a long time, they searched all three floors but did not find the person they were looking for, but accidentally found a Zerg of the Wind Knife Clan in a cell made of fine iron.
Ouyang Feng didn't have time to take care of the Wind Knife Zerg who was scolding, and came downstairs to meet Wei Canglan and Nangong Tian, seeing the two of them frowning and looking at him with anticipation, Ouyang Feng didn't need to ask and knew that they also had no gain, and couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
Ouyang Feng narrowed his eyes, a cold light flashed in his eyes, they had delayed a lot of time here, the sound of killing had already been shouted outside, and the beasts roared continuously, obviously the beasts had already attacked the canyon, and the chances of successful rescue were getting slimmer and slimmer, Ouyang Feng's mood became heavier and heavier, thinking of the captain of the personal guard squad who pointed the way just now, Ouyang Feng swore coldly: "If my friend has anything long and two short, even if he reaches the ends of the earth, he will be destroyed." β
Nangong Tian walked to the gate, looked out through the observation hole on the upper part of the gate, and said anxiously: "The beast herd has already come in, what should I do? The people of the Huafeng caravan are still waiting for us over there." β
Ouyang Feng looked around, sighed and said, "Alas, let's go, let's go and meet them." β
Nangong Tian was just about to open the door, Ouyang Feng remembered that there was still a Wind Knife Zerg in charge of the cell upstairs, and the three of them and Qiu Yi, the young patriarch of the Wind Knife Clan, could be regarded as friends no matter how they said it, and it seemed a bit unrighteous to leave like this, the friend was not found, and saving a friend's clan was also a bit of a gain.
All kinds of factors combined, Ouyang Feng couldn't help but die, so he said loudly: "Wait, there is a Wind Knife Zerg Clan locked up above, let's save him first." (To be continued.) )
