Chapter 28 Night Thorn
Chapter 28: Night Thorn
Late at night, fire suddenly appeared in the city guard's mansion, and cries resounded through the sky.
Xiaomeng City was in chaos, and countless people who didn't know what had happened went out to watch. However, Wuqi, who was dancing, had already led the remaining city guards and more than 2,000 new recruits recruited in the past few days to go out to suppress them, and prevented a single person from going out, which maintained order in the city well.
The riots in the city guard's mansion lasted for a quarter of an hour, and then the gate of the city guard's mansion opened and countless black shadows rushed out wildly.
Yi Yan and others were stolen by Wuqi, but the servants, servants and tribesmen they brought still had a lot of money and money. Together, they still had a considerable amount of money.
Wuqi spread rumors among the guards of the city guards and spread all kinds of bizarre remarks. However, the Yi Yan brothers had long been confused, and no one came out to refute the rumors, and they did not assign their confidants to supervise the hired guards. The rumors were in chaos, and more than 3,000 guards of the city guards immediately had the same thoughts.
On that night, more than two thousand guards suddenly broke out and set fire to Yi Yan's city guard house, looted all the last little private money of the Yi Yan brothers and the others around him, and also plundered hundreds of pretty maids from the city guard house. After the servants, they opened the city guard house and smuggled into Xiaomeng City.
Xiaomeng City is a wilderness, with no other towns within a radius of hundreds of miles. It is the most remote place in the Lu Kingdom. If it weren't for the rare specialty produced in Mengshan, Xiaomeng City was a place where stray dogs would not want to come. Even so, those who could hang out in Xiaomeng City were either merchants who wanted money and lifelessness, barbarian hunters who licked blood on their heads, or deadly murderers who had no way to go.
The Yi Yan brothers came to Xiaomeng City to be officials. After having money, they hired a large number of guards and defenders to defend the city for their own safety. The strongest people in Xiaomeng City were those rogues and barbarians and brave and fierce savages.
These people are a group of wolves who want to eat meat. When you can feed them, they fight for Yi Yan. When Yi Yan can no longer feed them, they may implicate them and suffer together, these guys make trouble without hesitation, rob a group of cash and women, and Shi Shi Ran mixed into Xiao Mengcheng to live a leisurely life.
Wuqi commanded the city guards to roam around the city, but he did not conflict with these guards who fled with the escorts who were fleeing. To be honest, the strength of these guards is not weak. Wuqi is now not their opponents, and there is no need to fight with them. Wuqi does not have the kindness to reduce losses for the people around Yi Yan.
He led a team of soldiers to guard the street in front of the main gate of the city guard house. Wuqi watched one by one, carrying large and small bags and beautiful maids, quickly passing by.
The city guard's mansion still shone into the sky, but no one went to put out the fire. Wuqi vaguely heard the shrill shouts of Yi Yan and others, but the confidants around them had no time to care about them? They could only scream.
In just a few days, Wuqi also felt that he was very awesome to be able to make the defending of a city like this.
The fire burned all night, after all, the walls in the city guard's mansion were made of bluestone, and the overburdened courtyard was the inner courtyard of the Yi Yan brothers and others. The fire burned all the flowers, plants, trees and buildings in the inner courtyard, and gradually went out. A wisp of black smoke rushed straight up the sky, and the pungent fireworks were scattered in the air. A faint crying sound came from all over the place, and the family of the Yi Yan brothers and his confidants were also wailing there, crying and talking about their money, their favorite concubines and their favorite maids.
After a night of riot, more than two thousand city guards escaped cleanly, while the remaining hundreds of guards defected to Lu Chengfeng without hesitation.
These people were very good at doing it. In front of Yi Yan's subordinates, they took off their robes of the city guards, knelt in front of Dian Jun Mansion, applied to join Dian Jun Mansion, and became Lu Chengfeng's escort.
Lu Chengfeng showed the generosity and generousness that a young man from a noble family should have. With the order, he changed the clothes of the hundreds of former city guards' guards' guards, and let them be organized into the city guards, and on duty in the Dianjun Mansion.
These guards have cultivated the inner true energy and are much stronger than ordinary soldiers. Although their loyalty is a problem, as long as they give enough gold and silver, they can still use it on weekdays. Eat the king's fortune and loyalty to the king. The heroes in Xiaomengcheng are very real. As long as they give money, there is nothing to be picky about in their services.
After hearing the news, Yi Yan walked out of the city guard house that was burned to white land, and looked at the guard he recruited and defected to Lu Chengfeng.
Most of the guards fled in rebellion, while the little one left him away. It was like two heavy slaps, making Yi Yan's eyes turn green and his white flesh fluctuated layer by layer. Especially when the guards changed into black city guard robes, Yi Yan's throat became sweet, and another mouthful of blood spurted out from afar, rolling his eyes and fell to the ground.
Wuqi hugged his hands in his sleeves, and looked at Yi Yan with a happy smile and vomited blood and fell to the ground. He yelled weakly: "The city lord has fainted from vomiting blood again. Come on, call me doctor, hurry up, hurry!"
With a throwing his hand, more than a dozen bronze-cast knife coins fell to Yi Yan's side with a 'Dingling'. Wuqi kindly said to the servants around Yi Yan, who looked haggard and seemed to have all the souls flying to the nine heavens, and said, "I'm afraid you don't have the money to hire a doctor, well, I still have some private room here, I'll lend it to you?"
Yi Yan, who was half awake, heard the word "money" and immediately shouted to the sky: "My money, my money, where is my money!"
Another mouthful of blood was spurted out, and Yi Yan's throat clattered a few times, and he fainted steadily.
Yi Yan's close friends rushed to help Yi Yan up, pinched the Ren Zhong, patted the face, and sprayed cold water, and finally woke him up. However, Yi Yan's face turned black and his eyes were dull. The originally delicate and tender white flesh was shriveled, and suddenly it seemed that he had been dehydrated for dozens of kilograms.
Wuqi squinted his eyes and looked at Yi Yan Yi Yan, his eyes swept over the busy servants and guards in the city guard palace like a knife, and snorted lightly.
That night, Lu Chengfeng set up the Taibai Golden Knife Formation outside his bedroom with a solemn expression. He arranged the formation with three formations, and the range covered by the formation was thirty feet. The entire courtyard where he was located was shrouded in the power of the formation.
Wuqi squatted aside and looked at Lu Chengfeng curiously arranged all this.
The Taibai Golden Sword Formation, Wuqi knew this formation and stole everything from the sutra, especially the profound and mysterious way of the formation, which is far beyond ordinary people's imagination. In the cultivation world, the formation is like the vault alloy gate and electronic lock on the earth. It is often used to protect important caves and various precious objects, and is also a concrete and subtle manifestation of the Great Way of Heaven and Earth.
If you are not proficient in the formation, how can you break through the formation and steal various targets?
Therefore, one-third of the article in the Stealing Sutra is to explain the wonderful principles of various large arrays. In addition to the various formations commonly found in the cultivation world, the person who compiled the Stealing Sutra also has the understanding and expansion of the formation. It is really all-encompassing. The formations in the Stealing Sutra are transparent air without any difficulty.
The Taibaijin Sword Formation, as one of the basic formations of the Geng Metal Array, even if Wuqi has not specifically studied the formation, he can still see through the secrets at a glance. The three formation stakes are finished in the shape of the stakes, and the slightest Gengjin aura is spreading among the three formation stakes. A layer of white air as thin as a veil is faintly generated on the ground in the yard, which is the Taibaijin essence energy gathered from the formation.
Lu Chengfeng spent a quarter of an hour to push the formation to operate. This shallow formation consumed all of Lu Chengfeng's true energy. If Lao Hei had not sent a bowl of human medicine in time for Lu Chengfeng to drink, Lu Chengfeng, who was empty in his body, would not even have the strength to stand.
Looking at the formation that had been officially launched, Wuqi held his chin with both hands and asked curiously: "Is it worth preparing like this?"
Lu Chengfeng took a deep breath, handed the big bowl back to Lao Hei, and sat on the steps beside Wuqi. He looked up at the sky and said lightly: "Someone will come. Before Yi Yan was officially deprived of the position of guarding the city and left Xiaomeng City, we must be so alert every night."
Looking at Lu Chengfeng curiously, Wuqi said disapprovingly: "But who will attack us?"
Before he finished speaking, a "swish" sound of water spray came from outside the yard. Wuqi's face changed suddenly. He was very familiar with this sound. When his master Wu Wang touched the sentry and cut the sentry's neck with a dagger from behind, blood was spraying out from the artery blood vessels.
Lu Chengfeng's body suddenly froze. He whispered: "Come here, Lao Hei, go hide in the house!"
Lao Hei, who was hunched over, took out a black scimitar from somewhere, and stood next to Lu Chengfeng tremblingly, but had no intention of entering the house. Wu Qi frowned, snatched the knife from Lao Hei's hand, and dizzed Lao Hei with one finger, threw him into Lu Chengfeng's bedroom.
He nodded to Wuqi with approval, and Lu Chengfeng sneered in a low voice: "Unlike me, Yi Yan and others are children of the Yi family after all. Even if they are born in vain, they must have 'thorns' who have followed them since childhood."
Wuqi looked at Lu Chengfeng.
Lu Chengfeng nodded slowly and said, "'thorn', 'assin''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''
Wuqi stood beside Lu Chengfeng. He rubbed his hands and held the low-grade magic weapon in the palm of his left hand. He gently waved the scimitar from Lao Hei's hand. Wuqi said coldly: "So, is it the thorns around Yi Yan and the others who are coming to trouble us? Well, too, there are so many troubles in Xiao Meng City, it seems that the biggest suspect is us!"
Lu Chengfeng's mouth was not just the biggest suspect. How did the gold bricks piled up into a hill under his bed now come from? They are real perpetrators. If he hadn't taken into account the identity of his eldest son of Lu, he would have come to Yi Yan and the others. As early as when Yi Yan and Yi Xing's private wealth were stolen, they had already come to him.
"Be careful! These thorns are not so easy to deal with!" Lu Chengfeng took a deep breath and untied a six-foot-long soft sword from his waist. He shook the soft sword casually, and a piece of green water sprinkled several feet away.
"What a sharp weapon!" Wuqi exclaimed. This soft sword is impeccable among ordinary weapons, both in materials and forging techniques.
