Chapter Twenty-Eight: Inside and Outside the City

In July of the thirteenth year of the Great Cause (617), on the boundless, vast and open water surface of Dongting Lake, there were many masts, flags rolling, and war clouds rushing. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Xiao Mo climbed the tower at the west gate of Baling City, which is rumored to be the place where Wu Guolu Su inspected the sailors during the Three Kingdoms period. However, all he could see at this time were other people's warships.

In the south of the city and in the east of the city, there are also large armies encamped, and there is no movement outside the north gate.

This is a circumference of three ques, leaving a way to live.

At the same time, in Baling City, Xiao Mo was not able to grasp all the situation. The cadres led by Lu Kangshou, the big boss of the Baling Gang, did not have the intention of fighting against the water, but were more inclined to surrender to the Yangzhou army.

Under the internal and external troubles, Xiao Mo deeply felt that his future was bleak in this incident.

In Dongting Lake, Cao Xu stood proudly on the bow of the Wuya ship, looking at the enclosed Baling City and smiling slightly, fighting for dominance in the world is not a competition of martial arts, relying on the strong and bullying the weak is the right reason. Only a dead opponent is a good opponent.

Behind him, Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling stood straight with swords and knives. The two of them are full of real energy, communicate with heaven and earth, and have obviously stepped into the innate realm and become the first-class players in the rivers and lakes.

After the training in the recruit camp, the two of them were selected by Cao Xu to become a member of the Guards with their outstanding results.

A character like Ssangyong can be given a high position, but it must not be given real power. Without the opportunity to cultivate wings and a solid foundation, no matter how strong the innate destiny is, it will eventually have to be beaten away by the wind and rain.

These days, Cao Xu gave a little guidance to the two of them in his spare time, and taught some of the things he had learned from the "Secret of Longevity" to Shuanglong for verification. Ssangyong got this opportunity and immediately made a breakthrough in martial arts.

With Ssangyong as a guinea pig, the mystery of "The Secret of Eternal Life" is being unearthed by Cao Xu little by little.

In the blink of an eye, three days have passed. The Yangzhou army besieged Baling City but did not attack, and the strong pressure made the people in the city panic.

Within the Baling Gang, there has been an endless debate over whether to surrender, and several bloody clashes have broken out. If it weren't for Lu Kangshou and Xiao Miao's strong elastic pressure, I'm afraid it would have been a mess long ago.

Great calamity is coming, and people's hearts are different.

In a large mansion in Baling City, Lu Kang, nicknamed "Cigarette Stick", rubbed the famous blade in his hand, a cigarette stick made of stainless steel.

This cigarette stick, accompanied him to rise, witnessed his glory, today the Baling Gang is coming to an end, the only thing he can believe now is the cigarette stick in his hand.

Pushing open the window, it was the beginning of the month, there was no moon in the sky, the stars were twinkling, and the stars were misty.

At this moment, there was a sudden shout of killing all around.

Lu Kangshou sneered, jumped out of the window directly, and flew to the roof.

I saw that the surroundings of the house were surrounded by people. The gang loyal to Lu Kang's hand is trying their best to resist.

"Xiao Miao, do you want to commit a crime and rebel?" Lu Kangshou's voice was sent out by his true qi, and it immediately spread throughout half of Baling City.

This shout represents a complete split of the Baling Gang.

"Shoot the arrows. Xiao Mo ordered.

The sound of "whooshing" came, and a dense rain of arrows fell, and the gangers loyal to Lu Kangshou fell to the ground one after another.

"Xiao Miao, I promise you'll regret it. A firework flew up, and Lu Kangshou had already made up his mind to defect to the Yangzhou army, which was a signal to order the gang outside the city to control the fleet to take refuge.

After sending the signal, Lu Kangshou rushed towards the backyard.

In the backyard, there is a tunnel that leads directly to the outside of the city, which is also his last hole card.

The shouts of killing got closer and closer, and Lu Kang moved away from a rockery, leaking out a dark and deep hole. He was overjoyed when he was about to enter the tunnel.

The invisible forces around him suddenly erupted, and the strong and domineering energy surged from all directions, and the ear drums were filled with terrifying screams of vigorous whistling, as if they were in a storm, and they couldn't move freely at all.

At the critical juncture, Lu Kang's whole body was agitated, and the cigarette stick in his palm changed into countless rod shadows, and the sound of energetic attacks was endless.

Lu Kangshou felt like a little insect that had fallen into a spider's web, and although he struggled, he eventually fell deeper and deeper.

"Poof", a mouthful of blood spurted out, Lu Kangshou slowly fell to the ground, the hope of escape was close at hand, but there was no longer any meaning.

The last thing he saw was a pair of bare jade feet, delicate and perfect, and even the most picky person could not find any flaws.

Xiao Miao, who had solved the battle in the front yard, hurried over, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief when he saw the dead Lu Kangshou.

A girl dressed in white like snow, like an elf in the night, stood on top of a rockery. The dreamlike and miserable gaze fell on Xiao Miao, the corners of his mouth flashed with a soft smile, and he lightly opened his lips and said, "I have already killed Lu Kangshou, and the next thing is up to you." ”

Before the words were spoken, the man had disappeared.

Xiao Mo looked at the direction where Qianying disappeared, sighed lightly, and then collected his mood and strode away.

The next day, Cao Xu, who got the accurate news, laughed "haha", Xiao Milling Dog jumped over the wall in a hurry, and after killing Lu Kangshou, it seemed that all the rights had been collected and the order was unified, but in fact, the hearts of the people had been lost.

The people are not aligned, how can they resist the attack of the Yangzhou army.

Accompanied by the sound of "dong dong" drums, the Yangzhou army, under the auspices of Li Jing, launched a comprehensive attack on Baling City.

At the same time, on Dongting Lake, a small boat carrying an old man with five long beards, an ancient and elegant face, a thick brocade robe, and a crown and a broad belt, leisurely passed through several blockades and came to the front of Cao Xu's five-tooth ship.

The water is rippling, the boat is fluttering, and the Taoist on the boat is concentrating on fishing.

The lake, the boats, and the old people who are fishing are all integrated into a whole, giving people an incomparably harmonious feeling.

On the five-tooth ship, the two leaders of Southern Taoism, Song Yuquan and Wang Zhiyuan, glared angrily, but they were helpless.

Cao Xu walked to the bow of the boat and silently watched the old man fishing on the boat.

At this time, the fishing rod in the old man's hand moved, and it seemed that a fish had taken the bait. Below the surface of the water, there was a faint sound of fish struggling, and some bubbles were surging.

A smile escaped from the corner of the old man's mouth, and his face showed joy, and he said, "There is a fish on the fish!"

Cao Xu quietly looked at the performance of Ning Daoqi, one of the three great grandmasters in the world, "Sanzhenren", and in the ancestral aperture of his eyebrows, a bright moon appeared, and he tried his best to perceive the state of the great martial arts master.

Since Ning Daoqi sent it to the door by himself, Cao Xu would never be polite.

Jindan Zhenren is full of spirit and embraces Chengdan, and what he wants is a "consummation", independent of the world, and transcendent from the outside of things.

And Ning Daoqi in front of him is integrated into this world, like flowing water, like a fish leaping. (To be continued.) )
