Chapter 182: In the Empty City

When the five people of Liu Zhangmen arrived at the intersection of Huanglong Mansion, Yanmen Pass and Guandong Road, they saw a very terrifying scene. I only saw a group of human-looking ghost soldiers, pressing the people of the Zhenliao Capital Guards to the ground, eating their bodies with a big gulp, and the people in charge of Liu who watched it were in a cold sweat. One of the disciples couldn't stand the impact of this scene in front of him, so he directly spit out all his dinner.

Seeing that this road was no longer possible, Master Liu had to find another way to Hecheng. A disciple observed the terrain again and again, and asked Master Liu, "Master, how come the Zhenliao Guards of the Duwei Mansion are here? It seems that there has been a small and extremely tragic war, and we have not been notified of their military action earlier." ”

"Then I don't know, just looking at the current situation, there must be a confrontation. Let's hurry up and find a way out, and we will know everything after we go to Hecheng. Master Liu said and pointed to a crooked path and continued to his disciples: "Look at the road over there, as long as we can pass through here secretly and go to that road, we can reach Hecheng, hurry up and find it." ”

In the dim moonlight, the five of them struggled to find a place to get around these ghosts. Finally, a disciple found a large area of low wood, and the five of them were lying on the ground, walking towards the crooked path little by little. This dwarf forest is right in the middle of the path, when the five masters and apprentices arrived here, they were already tired and sweaty, and when the last person climbed out of the low woods, he pleaded with Master Liu: "Master, let's rest for a while, my arms and legs are broken, and I don't have much strength to continue walking." Let's just rest for a while, and we won't delay the time to hurry. ”

Master Liu looked up at the moon, most of the time had passed, and he looked around, but he didn't find anything abnormal, so he agreed to the apprentice's request. Just as several people were sitting behind a large rock to rest, several people heard the sound of the horse hanging a bell at the same time, and from the sound of the horse's hooves, it could be judged that the horse was running in a hurry, as if it was chasing something, or it might be being chased by something. Master Liu and the disciples held their breath, probed out, and vaguely discerned that two horses were running in their direction with two people.

After getting closer, Master Liu could tell that these two people were Xiao Lie and Xing Hao, so he beckoned the two of them to stop.

After listening to Master Liu's story, Xiao Lie and Xing Hao wiped the sweat on their heads, the two of them never thought that these unarmed and powerless people would make such a big noise. Xiao Lie then asked, "Then have these people fled to Huanglong Mansion now?"

Master Liu nodded and replied, and Xiao Lie continued to ask: "Then have you explained our situation here in detail with the commander of the Huanglong Mansion? If we lose it here, then the next one to suffer will be the Huanglong Mansion of the other sect." ”

"Having said that, they already know the consequences of this. And they attached great importance to this matter, and told me that as long as there were still people who wanted to take refuge in Huanglong Mansion, they would accept all of them, just wait until our problem is solved, and make up for the losses they have caused during this period to Huanglong Mansion. ”

Before a few people could finish speaking, there was a chaotic sound of horses' hooves from the crossing. Xing Hao glanced at this crossing a few times, and said to everyone: "Our people are all gone, this group of ghosts has caught up, and we have no leisure time, let's hurry up." ”

"Master, our horses are all at the Huanglong Crossing, and the distance from the road of Yanmen Pass is too far, I'm afraid it's too late to go back and get it. You follow the horses of the two adults first, and the four of us little brothers are here to break off. One of the disciples of the Liu Sect said to him.

Xing Hao hurriedly stopped: "By all means, we are responsible for dozens of brothers in total, and we have dragged them for so long with our own lives." If the four of you stay here, won't you be sent to death for nothing? ”

Xiao Lie immediately picked up Xing Hao's words and continued: "What Xing Hao said just now may be a little unpleasant, but it is definitely such a reason, let's not fight, let's go together, the two of us will not ride horses anymore, and run with you." ”

The apprentice of the head of Liu stomped his feet anxiously and said: "If that's the case, none of us can escape, the lives of the four of our little brothers are small, your safety is the main thing, as long as you are alive, there is still a glimmer of hope in our Kanto Road." If even the three of you die on the battlefield, how can this battle be fought, won't it be a collapse all at once? Saying that, this disciple led the other three disciples to kneel in front of the three of them: "Master, two adults, you should leave quickly, you must not turn back, otherwise we will die in vain." Please be sure to focus on the overall situation, don't care about the immediate loss, we can sacrifice for the country, that is our honor, we can die for the three of you, we will die without regrets. Then he kowtowed to the three of them, stood up, and ran down against the pursuers, singing loudly their favorite tunes.

Xing Hao was about to stop him, but he was pulled back by Master Liu. Liu Zhangmen watched his apprentice sacrifice his life and die, tears flowed out of his eyes, and he choked up and said to Xiao Lie and Xing Hao: "They are right, someone has to do this, we still have a chance, as long as there is still a little hope, we can't give up." You are the hope and future of Kanto Province, and you cannot throw your lives here. ”

Holding the reins of the two horses and handing them to their hands, Liu Zhangmen accentuated the tone of his voice: "Let's go, let's go, return to Hecheng immediately, and prepare for the next battle." ”

Xiao Lie and Xing Hao's hearts at this time were extremely complicated, and they both had a mood that seemed to be sad, but very depressed. That feeling is something that cannot be expressed in any language or any words, Xiao Lie and Xing Hao flew on their horses, Liu Zhangmen sat behind Xiao Lie, and the three of them galloped towards Hecheng.

When the three of them returned to the Duwei Mansion, the sky was already bright, Nangong Junzhe, Yin Xuesong and Zhao Haiquan were discussing something in the meeting hall, and when Xiao Lie and the three of them walked into the hall before they could speak in a hurry, Master Zhenxiu also walked in.

Yin Xuesong first asked Xiao Lie and them, "Why did you come back and how things are going?" and then looked at Master Liu: "Why did Master Liu come back together?"

"Hey, the house leak happened to rain overnight, and our mission failed, and only the three of us came back. Xiao Lie told all the things that happened last night, even what happened to Master Liu, and he also told them again. After Yin Xuesong and Nangong Junzhe listened, their faces turned pale, and Zhao Haiquan shook his head and sighed: "Xiao Lie, what you said is really right, it is really a house leak that happened to rain overnight. This morning, news came from the Lingguantang Medical Hall, saying that the Lin City they were guarding had also been in Chicheng. Now all the people in Lin Cheng have also gone to Huanglong Mansion for refuge, and the current Lin City has become an empty city. ”

"I don't understand, Lin City, where we stand Chicheng and where Sun Yaoguang Hall Master is located, are the two cities at the back of our Kanto Road, but it is just these two places that should not be worried about the situation where the people rioted?

Speaking of this, Master Zhenxiu walked to the center of the hall and said to everyone: "There are really people making trouble in the middle, think about why these people don't go anywhere else, but want to take refuge in the Yellow Dragon Mansion." ”

"Isn't that because the Huanglong Mansion is close to us, if it is far away, they probably won't go, isn't that the truth, anyway, that's what I think." Yin Xuesong replied.

"Liaodong Mansion is much closer to us than Huanglong Mansion, and the distance is nearly an hour away, they are so reluctant to seek far, haven't you thought about the problem here?" Master Zhenxiu continued to ask rhetorically.

As soon as Master Zhenxiu said it, everyone immediately fell into deep thought, and Yin Xuesong muttered softly: "It's not, judging from the distance, this Huanglong Mansion is indeed not the best choice, but if there are people making trouble here, I haven't found any suspicious people." I also deliberately used the earth spirit bead to go to the Lingguantang Medical Hall, and after seeing the master of the Sun Hall, I asked if there were any suspicious people, and after thinking about it carefully, during this time, no living faces entered Lin City. ”

"I'll tell you. After taking a turn around the house, Master Zhenxiu said, "The reason why the people of these two cities have such a riot is because they have been bewitched by the city god yamen of Huanglong Mansion. Because in recent years, Huanglong Mansion has been affected by natural disasters, whether it is from the perspective of harsh taxes or the survival of the population, it has exceeded the capacity of local officials and Yin Si, and the main lack is money and food. That's why after Master Liu went to the Huanglong Mansion, the commander would put forward such a condition. Although nothing was said, after the matter was resolved, this is the result. ”

After Master Zhenxiu finished speaking, everyone suddenly realized, Nangong Junzhe looked at Master Zhenxiu and asked, "Master Zhenxiu, how do you know these things?"

"This is what my junior disciples told me, on the way back here from Ice City, they met the people of the Yin Division of the Huanglong Mansion, and they asked casually because they were curious. Na Cheng thought that the Yin Si person was a talker, and he told me about this junior brother and didn't have it. I was going to tell you about this sooner, but you already knew about it. ”

"The night raid cost the lives of hundreds of my brothers. This Huanglong Mansion has done such a thing to rob while it is hot, our luck is really bad enough. Nangong Junzhe said these two words self-deprecatingly.

Xiao Lie was so tired because of the overnight rush that he almost fell asleep when he leaned back in the chair, and just when he seemed to be asleep, he suddenly thought of an idea in his mind, rubbed his eyes, and tried to wake himself up. He said to the people in the room: "I don't think this is a bad thing, since we have two empty cities in our hands now, then we can use these two empty cities, we can do this."
