A ragged and scarred man was lying in a prison car, many wounds were deep to the bone, and his messy hair was stained with dried blood, as if he couldn't see the person's face, Chu Xunyu stood outside the prison car and asked Sun Mengxuan: "What? He didn't say anything?"

"Nope. Sun Mengxuan stared at the cage and shook his head, "I've been resisting, it's hard to believe, he can actually survive, you must know that there has never been such a situation during the war between the two dynasties, how can there be people in this world who don't confess?"

Chu Xunyu was silent this time, because Sun Mengxuan once said that there is no one in this world who does not confess. This is indeed a truth, in the face of torture, if the prisoner does not confess, it is because the means have not crossed the limit of this person's consciousness, but I feel that this person in the cage did not confess but it is not because Sun Meng's means are not enough, you must know that Sun Meng's iron and bloody wrists, he has a high skill in torturing people, few people can survive, this person is not inconspicuous at all, and his cultivation seems to be only in the Jindan period, how can he be so determined?

Walking over slowly, Chu Xunyu half-squatted down through the cage, and whispered, "Hey, do you hear me?"

As a result, the man did not react, Sun Mengxuan sneered, and deliberately commanded loudly left and right: "Come on, greet him well." ”

As soon as these words came out, the person in the cage suddenly reacted violently, struggled in horror and curled up in a corner, and even the chains and cages on his body made a "bang" sound, Chu Xunyu saw clearly that this was a middle-aged man's face, and his eyes showed a terrifying feeling from the heart, Sun Mengxuan snorted coldly: "Be smart." ”

This is a very strange thing, Chu Xunyu is unpredictable, this person is already so afraid, why don't you tell the truth, the essence of punishment is to let the tortured person feel the pain of the skin, the heart of fear, so as to tell the truth, this person is already afraid like a mouse, deeply feel the cruelty of Sun Meng's methods, why do you have to resist? Otherwise, this person doesn't know the truth at all, or this guy is a fool, but I haven't heard of a fool who can practice knot.

Seeing that there was no result if it went on like this, Chu Xunyu motioned to Sun Mengxuan to leave here first to speak, Sun Mengxuan nodded, and ordered the left and right to take good care, and then the two walked into the forest, Chu Xunyu asked, "Where did this person come from?"

Sun Mengxuan replied: " The environment here is very strange, you must have noticed, time is also affected, two days for the outside of the day, that is to say, two days will only have a night, the day time is unusually long, we have not experienced this kind of thing at the beginning, it is here that we experienced the first night, suddenly suffered from the fierce attack of these strange people, they have crossbows and other things, we hid in the woods, relying on the terrain to dodge and counterattack, about two hours, after we paid a heavy price to repel them, this guy ran a step slower, was captured by me, at first I thought it was a public loss or a member of the Mo family, It turned out that this person was nondescript, and he didn't look like anyone, so he used a big punishment, but he didn't expect it to be a thing that was inviolable. ”

Chu Xunyu nodded, suddenly remembered something, and asked strangely: "Two days is one day, so when was the last dark night?"

"It's coming. Sun Mengxuan looked up at the sky, "When you weren't there just now, I had already told Wangchen and them, but in half a day, night was coming." ”

Chu Xunyu rolled his eyes helplessly: "Then what are you waiting for, now this strange person is insignificant, let's discuss how to deal with their attack at night." ”

"I've already arranged it. Sun Mengxuan said, "Go back to the big tent with me, I have another incident to tell you." ”

In the big tent, Sun Mengxuan, Wangchen, Gongyi Dengyun, Swallowing Fire and Chu Xunyu gathered together, Sun Mengxuan took out a simple map, pointed to it and said: "Tonight, our battalion arranges three-sided defense, checks and balances each other, and does not need to defend on all sides, because there are not enough manpower, Wangchen, Gongyi Dengyun and Swallowing Fire are each guarding one side, I am in charge of the Chinese army, hold up the umbrella, put all the wounded under the umbrella, and prepare the crossbow and other beasts in advance, one thing is very important, that is, at night, we will recover mana." ”

"What?" everyone was surprised, because recovering mana was crucial for everyone, "Recovered at night?"

"Yes. Sun Mengxuan nodded, "It's not a long time, the night here is no more than three hours at most, and the mana recovery is limited, from the beginning of the slow recovery to the later gradual disappearance, it's just a little bit, so we have to have a reasonable plan." ”

After a pause, Sun Mengxuan continued: " In the past few days, with my careful observation, I have calculated that there will be a north wind tonight, I have asked the disciples of the soldier family to bury the fire in the south in advance, and when the north wind rises, it will burn the company camp and burn the sky and the earth, so the south is expected to be guarded by Brother Chen, tonight your mana is restored, and the secret technique of the Tianji Pavilion is used to cover the fire with a heavy fog, one is not to let them find out, and the other is to lose their way, let them get lost, do not let go of one, after the fire is burned, the gap will inevitably be opened, then the enemy has already fled in a panic, we are attacking in the whole army, let them all leave their heads, no one left。 ”

Chu Xunyu suddenly interjected at this time and asked, "You said that you would recover your mana tonight, so what techniques will those weirdos use?"

"Yes. Sun Mengxuan nodded, "Judging from my night battles with them, they will use a lot of techniques, but they are miscellaneous, chaotic, and there is no unified rule to speak of, but they are quite threatening, and there are crossbows and other auxiliaries, so I have people already dig more ditches, pile up stones, use them as cover, and pour 'mirror juice' to avoid their attacks." ”

Mirror juice is a great creation of soldiers in the long-term war in history, during the Tang Dynasty, the ancient Loulan Kingdom of the Western Regions paid tribute to Chang'an a mysterious clear water, called "mirror", it is said to be smooth as silk, pure as jade, no matter what foreign matter falls into it, it will sink to the bottom of the water, can not pollute it, whether it is day or night, you can see things from the reflection of the water surface, the Tang Dynasty notes have recorded: "There are envoys in the Western Regions, the mirror water comes to the court, the wonder of its water, smells Chang'an." ”

Later, the ancient kingdom of Loulan was destroyed, this mysterious water also disappeared, and the soldiers did not know where to find this mysterious water source, but the number was not much, and the Bashu "Qingtian Seed" was crushed and mixed with some other things to join it, and the Buddhist "Pure World Hengyan" was used to practice for 7749 days before this "mirror juice" could be obtained , must be wrapped in sheepskin, once exposed, it will solidify, so it is generally used in wartime, poured on the pre-arranged things, once any Taoist magic strikes, these mirror juice will be reflected back like a mirror, the end is extremely mysterious, so it is named "mirror juice", of course, not everything can be reflected, such as space or other esoteric techniques, the mirror juice is ineffective, but this kind of thing is still rare, expensive to build, ordinary people can not get.

After saying this, Sun Mengxuan turned his head to Chu Xunyu and said, "There is another task, I will give it to you." ”
