At this moment, there was a "boom", but unlike the previous muffled thunder roar, this time it was accompanied by firelight.

Luo Jiang was slightly startled and looked in the direction.

Because she was not a Taoist, Luo Jiang just felt that there was an uncomfortable aura in the distance rushing to the sky, but after careful investigation, she didn't feel anything.

After just one glance, Luo Jiang put down the booklet and sank into thought: "What happened to make Fang Xiaohou lose his temper?"

Although she is a member of the Imperial City Division, she really doesn't know what is happening outside at this time.

"Could it be that it has something to do with the kings? After all, the city has not been peaceful these days, and I have even been rumored to be eyeing the acting prince. ”

When she was dancing, she had already used a code to pass on the results of her staring to Fang Zhen, and it was said that the task was completed well, but Luo Jiang was not happy, she only pinched the sword score again and lowered her eyelashes.

Daikoku Mansion Steps

Fang Zhen walked out of it, his face was already not good-looking, and he looked in the direction of the continuous rumbling, and his breath was even colder.

"Lead the horse!"

Because he is serving today, Fang Zhen can be regarded as powerful among the young generation of powerful people, and he has also consolidated his position as a son, but this kind of is like the moon in the water and the flower in the mirror, once he loses the emperor's trust, he may be beaten back to his original form.

Fang Zhen had to work harder to ensure that everything was not taken back now.

You must know that Fang Zhen also has brothers.

Just now, he came to report to the soldiers that Qingyuan Temple did not stop the big demon, let the big demon hiding there escape, and was about to break through the wall and escape from the capital, this situation was like a slap in the face, hitting Fang Zhen in the face.

Although this matter was hosted by Zhao Dugong, the Imperial City Division, and there were people in the Dao Sect like Huo Wuyu who were in charge, Fang Zhen was also involved, once this big demon could not be killed, the Son of Heaven would be angry and ambush millions of corpses, and the consequences would be unimaginable.

Knowing that Zhao Gongcheng was supervising the battle in front, Fang Zhen breathed a sigh of relief.

Compared with other leaders and eunuchs, Zhao Gonggong has been to the southwest and has also fallen behind, but he is much better than "talking about soldiers on paper" in terms of using soldiers.

Moreover, the connections in the Imperial City Division and the understanding of the capital are not comparable to those in the southwest, and if you fall there, you may not repeat the mistakes of the past here in the capital.

"Report!" only then did he ponder, a soldier rode a horse and galloped over, fell directly to the ground, and got up again in front of Fang Zhen.

"The Imperial City Division has arrested key criminals, hundreds of casualties have been lost, and the East Gate is asking for support!"

Hundreds of casualties?

This is a border battlefield, but in the capital!

And this time to arrest the monsters, it is not an ordinary armor soldier to go to the front, they are all elites, and in a short period of time, hundreds of people have been lost, which is already an extremely serious situation.

"Kiyoonji. Fang Zhen read this name, and the expression on his face became more and more solemn.

This is the key place to search, and there are more people who go, so it doesn't matter if the big demon is left behind, and it doesn't matter if the big demon escapes to the east gate, the big demon can still hurt people until now?

This monster is so powerful?

The restraint of the demon clan in the capital is the highest level, and there are many Daomen masters in the capital recently, so can't they take it down?

A big demon, how can it be so?

"Lead the way!" Fang Zhen turned over and got on his horse and immediately ordered.

A few fast horses, together with a group of armored soldiers running behind, quickly marched through the streets, and at this critical time, this emergency preparedness was activated.

And anyone who sees horses galloping on the road and a team of armored soldiers will also avoid it.

Tonight's capital is destined to not be peaceful, at night, the first ox carts galloped by, the hooves of horses sounded one after another on the quiet road, the people next to these streets, every household has already woken up.

There were even many people who were far from the street, awakened by the previous rumble.

After listening closely, they found that it was not thunder, and the strange and ominous atmosphere made them dare not even light candles, and the family hid in a room, holding their breath and listening outside.

Occasionally, one or two bold people came to the gate, looked out through the crack in the door, and found that the armored soldiers passing by one after another on the street were trembling with fright.

This is going to be a big deal!

And Fang Zhen, riding a horse, was led to the east gate ten miles away from Qingyuan Temple, next to the city wall, which was not prosperous.

The battles just now did not cause any civilian casualties, but the smell of blood and charred corpses in the air was so strong that Fang Zhen almost vomited as soon as he got closer.

Everything in front of you is more like the legendary hell.

I saw that on the road and the side of the road in front of me, there were corpses lying everywhere, many of the corpses were still smoking, looking scorched, not to mention rescue, I was afraid that it would be broken if I touched it.

In the distance, there was still a fire raging, and there was a figure in the fire, trying to break through, jumping over the encirclement and rushing towards the city wall.

The firelight, the cold light of the weapon, shines brightly in the night.

"Roar ——!" Listening to the roar coming from the aperture and the fire, Fang Zhen's expression was cold.

While going around this circle and walking towards the command office, Fang Zhen asked the captain who approached as soon as he saw it: "What's the situation?"

"My lord, it's not good. This captain was considered an acquaintance of Fang Zhen, and lowered his voice: "About one hundred and twenty people have been killed in battle, if you can't kill the big demon, it won't last long." ”

"Why don't you shoot a crossbow?" Fang Zhen swept around and found that there were not many crossbow arrows on the ground, and the armored soldiers surrounding this circle were only holding weapons, and only occasionally shot one or two arrows in, causing trauma to the big demon, why not just shoot a salvo of crossbow arrows?

The essence of the government is that 10,000 people are on the same page, and 10,000 arrows are released together, who will talk about what rules and morality?

The lieutenant hesitated for a moment, and his voice was lowered: "This is Zhao's order." ”

What order? Don't let the armor soldiers fire a volley of crossbow arrows at the Great Demon?

What's going on?

If the situation here is good, forget it, so many people have died, and they haven't killed this big demon yet, just watching the other party break through?

Fang Zhen's face turned pale, and he felt incomprehensible.

And when he saw Zhao Gonggong, who was surrounded by a group of people and was standing on a high slope, Fang Zhen hurriedly stepped forward and asked, "Zhaogong Gonggong, things are not good, why don't you order a salvo of crossbow arrows?"

This is advice, but it also raises some questions.

Don't look at Fang Zhen's usual respect, but in the end, he is the hereditary son of the Hou Ye, not a subordinate of Gonggong Zhao.

I just asked, and suddenly saw a hundred households coming back, and immediately knelt down: "Report! The monster and demon fire can no longer be used! It will be surrounded to death!"

"Very good!" Zhao Gonggong glanced at Fang Zhen, and then continued to order: "You can't let this monster die, you must capture it alive!"

Baihu immediately responded and left.

Why? Fang Zhen was even more puzzled in his heart, and he heard Zhao Gonggong say to him: "What, you don't understand?"

Fang Zhen also realized at this time, I am afraid that this is not Zhao's father-in-law's mistake, but has another intention, and muttered: "Could it be to find out the purpose of its coming to Beijing?"

Or, does the emperor want this demon to be useful?

"It's not just that!" Zhao Gonggong laughed, and his voice was cold: "The capital is where the artifact of a country is located, and all laws are easy, not to mention monsters, even real people have to bow down." ”

"But now, there is an example of being able to be in Beijing without being oppressed, and still using demon law, how serious is this? It has simply shaken the community, and our family has been ordered to find out why it can enter Beijing, why it is not suppressed, no matter how many people die, it must be captured alive!"
