Chapter 510: Bronze Sparrow
Dongfang Nuannuan took the state chronicles on the ground, pointed to one of the pages and said, "I turned it, and in the article on the water situation, there is one page missing, and it is obvious that the demon girl took this page away before leaving." ”
Soon, an official sent another state chronicle, and through comparison, he found the missing page, which was the water survey map in Dingzhou City, which marked the detailed locations of the fifty-seven wells in Dingzhou City. These wells, all over the city of Dingzhou, are a necessary place for the people of Dingzhou to get water. Although the state records are a few years old, the location of these wells has not changed much when Dingzhou was rebuilt, and most of them either use the original wells or re-dig the wells in the location of the original wells.
Sun Sheng asked, "What did the demon girl do when she took away the water map?"
Yu Wenshuang analyzed, "Oops, she has to do something in the water source in the city!" Thinking of the previous incident of Bliss outside Dingzhou City, if it was not dealt with in time, I am afraid that the food of the people of Dingzhou City at this moment will be mixed with the ingredients of Bliss Grass, and if it can't be done, it will make another plan, just preparing to pollute the water source in Dingzhou City.
What a vicious strategy!
However, it is not easy to poison all the fifty-seven wells. Yuwen Tianlu took the water map, checked it for a long time, and did not speak.
Sun Sheng asked: "What to do next, please make it clear to the Metropolitan Governor." ”
Yuwen Tianlu said: "You are the lord of a city." ”
Sun Sheng was not ambiguous, and instructed his subordinates: "From now on, Dingzhou City will enter a state of emergency, fifty-seven wells, each of which will be guarded by thirty elite soldiers, on duty day and night, and the people will take water, and they will also carry the water uniformly, and then distribute it, and no outsiders will be allowed to approach the water source in the city, and control the distribution of water sources before the crisis is resolved." Among them, the four largest wells in the city and south of the city were guarded by additional personnel, and 2,000 soldiers and horses were sent to search the city from house to house, even if they dug three feet into the ground, they had to find out the demon girl!"
After deploying the order, Sun Sheng came to Yuwen Tianlu and knelt on the ground: "Please ask the Metropolitan Governor to uphold justice for the son of the deceased official." ”
Sun Sheng understands that nominally he is the lord of a city, but in Dingzhou City, Yuwen Tianlu is the real talker. Although he usually does not interfere in the affairs of the city, the big array in Dingzhou City is presided over by Yuwen Tianlu, and without Yuwen Tianlu, this Dingzhou City is nothing. Therefore, even if he lost his beloved son, he still maintained his sanity and maintained some respect for Yuwen Tianlu.
He also understands that this demon girl is not an ordinary person in the rivers and lakes, but one of the only few masters in the world, who can administer justice for him, and there is only Yuwen Tianlu in this city.
Yuwen Tianlu helped him up, "I'm afraid it's not that simple, you do your part, and I'll take care of the rest." ”
A potential threat looms over the city of Dingzhou.
It was only when it was dawn, and when everyone went out to draw water, they realized the seriousness of the matter.
The wells guarded by the heavy soldiers, and the soldiers searching the streets, made people wonder what was going on, and rumors were spreading in the city, but at this time, the city lord's mansion was already busy, and there was no time to pay attention to these rumors.
The main streets of the city are plastered with notices chasing Dongfang Nuannuan.
Those who provide clues to the suspect in everything will be rewarded with 100 taels of silver, and those who can capture the suspect alive will be rewarded with 100 taels of gold.
Under the heavy reward, there will be brave men.
The government was full of people before, and they all said that they had clues about the demon girl, but most of them were some false news, which made the officers and soldiers of Dingzhou
Miserable.
Dongfang Nuannuan, who was wearing a hat, stood in front of a notice and couldn't help sneering, "This girl's life is only worth a hundred taels of gold?" Yu Wenshuang, you are too underestimated to look down on this girl. ”
However, Dingzhou fell into chaos, her goal had been achieved, she took out the water survey map from her arms, crumpled it into a ball, shattered it with internal force, and threw it in the air casually, turned around and was about to leave, when she suddenly heard someone shouting behind her: "Stop!"
Turning around, the two officials walked towards Dongfang Nuan.
Dongfang Nuan Nuan stopped, "Official!"
"You just littered?"
"Uh-uh...... Dongfang Nuan Nuan was stunned for a moment, "My hand slipped for a while, and if I wasn't careful, I wouldn't dare next time." ”
An official said: "Now the demon girl is being captured in the city, and all the idle people and others must be interrogated.
Dongfang Nuan Nuan Jiao said: "The little woman has a strange disease and can't see the light, so please ask the official Haihan to be one." ”
"Please take off your hat and let us inspect it. ”
Dongfang Nuan Nuan said: "Do you really want to see it?"
"I'm sorry, I'm in public office, please cooperate with the girl. ”
Dongfang Nuannuan took off the hat, revealing an extremely ugly face, full of scars, cysts and blisters on the face, and the facial features were squeezed and deformed, distorted, Dongfang Nuannuan said timidly: "Official, I'm sick, I'm afraid of light!"
The two officials glanced at it and waved their hands, "It's okay, you can go." ”
Dongfang Nuannuan put on the hat and walked towards the city.
An official looked at her back and said, "I didn't expect that such a hot woman has a miserable face." Kill the back!"
Another official smiled, "My brother is too demanding, for me, it's the same when the lights are off." ”
Dongfang Nuannuan in the distance heard this, and there was a hint of murder in her eyes, and she immediately hidden, and she didn't look back, and turned into another street. The whole city was blocked, there were not many people on the street, Dongfang Nuannuan came to a rice shop, and the four-character plaque of "Old City Rice Shop" was hung on the store, she knocked a few times in the code language of the Bright Sect, and after a while, someone opened the door.
The guy said, "It's closed today, it's not open." ”
"I want to buy two catties of sesame oil and one catty of tung oil. ”
"We are a rice shop and do not sell sesame oil. ”
"In troubled times, oil and rice are at the same price. ”
The guy welcomed Dongfang Nuan Nuan in, and after a while, two businessmen dressed as men came out of the backyard, saluted Dongfang Nuan Nuan, and said respectfully: "Duan Yucheng and Li Renjie have seen the saint. ”
After the Heavenly Dao descended, Dongfang Nuannuan sent two people from the Bright Sect to infiltrate Dingzhou and carry out a secret mission.
"No courtesy. ”
Duan Yucheng said: "Today, we saw the notice posted on the street, and we knew that the saint had entered Dingzhou and had been waiting for the saint to arrive. ”
Dongfang Nuan Nuan said: "You have been here for a few months, what have you found?"
Duan Yucheng took out a stack of scrolls from his arms, "In the past six months, we have secretly visited the craftsmen who built Dingzhou City back then, and according to their descriptions, we have recorded some characteristics of this Dingzhou Great Array, although it is not accurate enough, but it is enough for us to use in our actions. ”
Dongfang Nuannuan took a cursory look at Duan Yucheng's documents and said, "The whole city is searching outside, you guys be careful and don't expose it." ”
Duan Yucheng said with a smile: "Our rice shop is a regular business, and we have a record with the government and a household registration
They all entered Dingzhou City, and not long ago they drank with their master book. ”
Dongfang Nuan Nuan said: "According to the clues I left, they are now blocking the water source in the whole city, and you send someone to find a way to create some chaos for them and divert their attention." Remember, don't forget, we have only one goal!"
"When are we going to do it?"
"Wait for the right time. ”
Dongfang Nuannuan stood in the courtyard, looking at the huge iron pillars two or three feet high on the city wall not far away, and fell into deep thought. This Dingzhou Great Array can interfere with the cultivator's sense of the True Yuan, and she didn't even notice this place when the Heavenly Dao descended, but after all, it was a defensive fortification, and she didn't understand what the purpose of Wang Banxian's efforts to seize this Great Array was.
......
Dingzhou South City Gate, watchtower.
A pavilion made of red bronze. Iron pillars wrapped in copper wires on the four walls of the city eventually connected to the bronze tower.
Yuwen Tianlu admired Cao Mengde at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, so he named this copper building "Tongque Terrace", however, he built the Tongque Terrace, not to "lock the two Qiao" like Cao Cao, but to monitor and prevent Dingzhou City, and even the whole world of cultivators, and because of this, Wangcai came to Dingzhou City, saw this Tongque Terrace, and chose not to enter the city.
In the Tongque platform, there is a photo wall, about the size of one zhang, and on it is a map of Daming mountains and rivers.
On top of the map, there are some subtle green, yellow, and red dots that are constantly flashing. The wall is built with white marble, if Xiao Jinyan is here, he will exclaim, this is almost a copy of the mountain and river luck map, and the dense flickering dots represent the people who practice in the world.
Yuwen Tianlu stood in front of the wall.
Yu Wenshuang came behind him and also looked at Zhaobi together, she said, "Father, there is no whereabouts of Dongfang Nuannuan. ”
"She suffered a loss once before, and was caught by the Great Array, and now that she knows this Great Array, she will inevitably hide her realm cultivation. It is not easy to find her in Dingzhou City. ”
It's a pity that this photo wall is too small, even if she shows her feet in Dingzhou City, she can only judge her approximate location, before it was because as soon as she entered the city, they kept an eye on her, and now she is hiding in the dark, and if she wants to find her, it is not so simple.
Yuwen Tianlu said again: "The matter of the Bliss Grass last time almost caught us off guard, this time Wang Banxian made a move, he must have come prepared, but we are in the light, they are in the dark, if you want to fight wits and courage with them, I am afraid it will take some effort." It's a pity that there is a spirit flag, and this bronze bird platform still can't capture his whereabouts. ”
Yu Wenshuang asked, "Why can't you notice the existence of Brother Xiao?"
Yuwen Tianlu said: "His cultivation method is different from that of ordinary people, the string force used cannot be sensed by the large array, not to mention that he has already jumped out of the three realms, and he is not controlled by the Heavenly Dao, and the great array cannot detect that he is normal." However, judging from the fluctuations of the true yuan, the last time he appeared should be in Shuzhong. ”
"Shuzhong?"
"Not bad. Yuwen Tianlu said: "His method of mobilizing the true element is a fixed pattern, but this is just my speculation." ”
At this time, I suddenly saw that above the wall, the true element between heaven and earth flowed rapidly, although there was no trace of anyone, but the speed of the flow of the true element was by no means ordinary, only people outside the three realms could gather so many dense true elements in an instant.
Yuwen Tianlu looked at Yutu and exclaimed, "Wang Banxian went to Zhaoyao Mountain!"
