Chapter 56: Closing the City Gate
The whipping ceremony quickly spread throughout Hongyun County, and there was a lot of discussion in the streets and alleys, and the Wu family's first drink this time also made some ill-intentioned forces and families tremble. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
For several days in a row, calm had returned to the county, which made the Wu family even more convinced that the three of them were the culprits who disturbed the Wu family.
In the dream space, Liao Fan sat cross-legged, and the mixed yuan righteous qi in his body continued to pour into the last main meridian, and the barrier was already as brittle as paper......
Half an hour later, a chaotic element rushed out of the obstacle like a bamboo, and finally completed a positive Zhou Tian operation.
Just when he was about to return the same way, a wisp of thought melted into it, struggled for a moment, and gradually became stable, and then Liao Fan gave an order, guiding the mixed yuan righteous qi to rush down the dantian, although the mixed yuan righteous qi was extremely reluctant to accept the control like a child, but gradually compromised under the repeated urging and control of the body owner.
The mixed yuan righteous qi just poured into the lower dantian, and a dull feeling and swelling pain that had never been felt before followed, frowning, Liao Fan knew in his heart that this kind of exercise was originally against the sky, once the mixed yuan righteous qi was in the lower dantian for too long, it would inevitably cause backlash, and the dantian would be broken.
Both hands quickly formed hand seals, and slowly pulled out the mixed yuan righteous qi against the reverse current, with the experience of thousands of failures, this righteous qi is a tacit understanding with the idea, although it also failed frequently in the process of this anti-Zhou Tian operation, but after a night of cultivation, it actually broke through the five main meridians, which made Liao Fan ecstatic, if it continues at this speed, it will not take a few days to learn the stacked thunder one heavy heaven.
Early in the morning, Liao Fan withdrew from the dream space, stretched his waist, and was just about to push open the window to breathe in the fresh air, when the door was pushed open by the maple leaf forest.
"Liao Da, let's go and see the excitement. ”
"Early in the morning, what are you going to see?"
"All the city gates in Hongyun County have been closed, and tens of thousands of people have gathered under the city gates. ”
"What's the situation? Why are the gates closed?"
"I don't know, won't it be clear if we go? ”
Hearing this, Liao Fan nodded, cleaned up briefly, shouted Duan Yuyan, and left the inn together.
Everywhere in the streets, groups of armored warriors could be seen gathering towards the city gates, and horse-drawn carriages with official symbols loaded with arrows and crossbows slowly drove away......
"This is a festival to fight, could it be that there are bandits attacking the city?" Maple Leaf Forest guessed incredulously.
"For the authorities to be so nervous, something big must have happened. Liao Fan said.
"Raise soldiers for a thousand days, use them for a while! They are used to being powerful, and it's time to come out and exercise. Maple Leaf Forest smiled.
"A bird is a bird, and you can't become a phoenix if you fly every day!" Duan Yuyan snorted coldly and said.
"Are you two finished?" Liao Fan glared, I really don't know what these two guys think, the people in the city are all panicked, but they don't think so.
An hour later, the three of them arrived at the city gates, where tens of thousands of armored warriors were armed with weapons to drive out the people below......
The cries and shouts outside the city resounded in the sky, and on the tower dozens of feet high, thousands of archers drew their bows and arrows and pointed directly at the people outside the city who wanted to enter the city.
"Tom!" the cannon on the tower of the city burst into the sky, and suddenly tens of thousands of people inside and outside the city stopped making noise.
"Give you a quarter of an hour, and leave quickly, or you will be killed!" said the county lieutenant, wearing battle armor and holding a long-handled steel broadsword, standing on top of the city tower and saying angrily.
"I also ask the county lieutenant to let my relatives outside the city in, they are all citizens of Hongyun County. An old man came out with a cane in hand, looked up at the tower, and pleaded.
"Old Chen, I respect you as the father of the county lord and will not be held responsible, but you must understand that without the decree of the county magistrate, I must not open the city gate without authorization. The county lieutenant said.
"The official closed the city gate for no reason, and he must give an explanation to the people in the city, otherwise tens of thousands of people outside the city would not starve to death in the city. Chen Lao said excitedly.
"According to reports, there is an army surging in this direction thirty miles outside the county seat, and we were forced to close the city gate before we were sure of this. The county lieutenant said.
"Your duty is to defend your home and country, and for fear of taking responsibility, you have to abandon the people outside the city, what is the difference between you and robbers and bandits. Chen Lao said excitedly.
"How dare you bewitch the people, deceive the people, come and take him down quickly. The county lieutenant gritted his teeth and said.
The six armored warriors were ordered to rush in front of Chen Lao and were about to be tied up, and at this moment, a figure flashed out of the crowd, and the long sword fluttered, and in the blink of an eye, the six armored warriors were knocked to the ground.
Liao Fan was stunned, and saw a well-dressed middle-aged man with a masculine face standing proudly in the middle of the field, and said in his heart that this person was so fast, and his cultivation would never be lower than the three of them.
"County Lieutenant Wang is so powerful, you and I are officials in the same dynasty, you actually ordered the soldiers to take down my father, is it not possible for me, the county lord, to be a decoration. The middle-aged man, with his sword eyebrows raised, was not angry and arrogant, and scolded.
"It turned out to be Lord County, hmph, don't forget, I'm in charge of the county's security tasks, and you're just in charge of internal affairs. No matter who it is, as long as it angers the official, I have the right to cut it first and then play!" the county lieutenant sneered.
"When it comes to the life and death of the people, I have the right to interfere, and please open the city gate and let the people in, and I will bear all the consequences. Lord Xiancheng said with his fists clenched.
"I can't agree to it, so you should go and ask the prefectural magistrate. The county lieutenant shrugged his shoulders and said lightly.
"Let us in......" The people outside the city shouted in unison.
"It's too late, forgive me for offending!" After finishing speaking, the figure of the county adult flashed, came to the city tower, stepped on the ground with both feet, flew to the top, swept the long sword, and stabbed at the county lieutenant......
"Chen Xingran, you are so bold, you dare to break the law with yourself. The county lieutenant dodged a sword, and immediately became furious, and waved the big sword in his hand......
"Hey...... With officials and officials, this kind of scene is really rare. Looking at the two people fighting fiercely on the castle tower, Maple Leaf Forest quipped.
"This county lord is awe-inspiring, for the sake of innocent people, we need to help him. Liao Fan hesitated, and then spoke.
"Liao Da, what are you kidding, there are tens of thousands of armored warriors in front of you, do you think we will succeed?" Maple Leaf Lin's body trembled, and he looked at Liao Fan in astonishment.
"Capture the thief and capture the king first, if you are afraid, stay where you are!" After finishing speaking, Liao Fan swiped his feet, and the "thunder" was unleashed at extreme speed......
Maple Yelin shook his head helplessly, and then his figure flashed, surpassing Liao Fan in the blink of an eye, and jumped to the top of the city tower first......
The armored soldiers under the city only felt a flower in front of them, and when they came back to their senses, they saw three people wearing hats flying up to the city tower and attacking the county captain......
At this time, the county lieutenant, who was in the midst of a fierce battle, only felt a sound of breaking wind behind him, his heart was startled, his feet were horizontal, and he quickly dodged the sneak attack behind him......
"Try it, just move it a little, I don't recommend breaking your neck. Liao Fan said lightly.
Seeing this, the armored warriors on the city tower raised their knives and were about to rush to the rescue, Duan Yuyan snorted coldly, his sleeve robe shook, and a dazzling cold light stabbed straight into the county lieutenant's left shoulder......
"Ah......" The county lieutenant's eyes bulged, cold sweat flowed from pain, and he complained bitterly in his heart, and hurriedly waved his hand to signal the armored soldiers to retreat.
"Chen Xingran, you actually teamed up with others to threaten me, don't you have the Imperial Constitution in your heart!" said the county lieutenant through gritted teeth, holding back the pain.
Chen Xingran was stunned, calmly staring at the three people who suddenly appeared, although he couldn't see their faces clearly, he still nodded in a friendly manner, ignoring the county lieutenant at all.
"Dog officer, immediately order someone to open the city gate, otherwise I will let you die on the spot. Liao Fan said in a deep voice.
"Don't think about it, none of the four of you want to run away today. The county lieutenant said viciously.
"Long-winded" A chill flashed in Duan Yuyan's eyes, and the Netherworld Dagger inserted in his left shoulder was pulled out and stabbed into it again......
"Ah...... I'm on, I'm on, don't torture me. The county lieutenant was in pain and timid, and hurriedly said.
"Lower the drawbridge and open the gates!"
"Squeak ......"
The city gate slowly opened, and the people outside the city cheered, and suddenly a swarm of people rushed in......
Liao Fan looked at the situation below, saw the people coming in densely, stretched out his hand to quickly stun the county lieutenant, glanced at each other, nodded, and the three of them jumped down and blended into the people......
At this time, the armored soldiers under the city came to arrest with knives, and Na Cheng thought that tens of thousands of people involuntarily gathered into a wall to block the way......
Liao Fan and the three of them bowed their heads and were silent, and along the way, all the people consciously separated the road and let them pass smoothly......
On the city tower, Chen Xingran watched everything calmly, smiled with relief, gently dropped the long sword in his hand, and helped the fainting county lieutenant.
