Chapter 6: The Skyfire Burns the City and Falls Overnight
Chapter 6: Skyfire burned the city and destroyed it overnight
The monitoring equipment in the arsenal was originally used to monitor various large and small movements within a radius of hundreds of miles to prevent a sudden attack by enemy troops. It is indeed too difficult to use it to monitor Loulan, which is far beyond this distance. However, it is better than nothing. The effect of these mechanical instruments is better than that of ordinary telescopes. Therefore, people take shifts every day to use these monitoring equipment to aim in the direction of Loulan, hoping that when Loulan's army comes to kill, it can be discovered as soon as possible.26nbsp;
Of course, even if the Loulan army is really coming, it may take a detour and attack from another direction. Such monitoring may be meaningless. If anything can be detected, it is the same sky as Loulan.
In the past few months, except for the daily blowing of sand in the desert, there was nothing unusual on the monitoring screen. However, this situation suddenly changed not long ago. The sky over Loulan seemed to be burning with fire and was so bright. It is dazzling. Logically speaking, even if there is a fire in Loulan, no matter how strong it burns, it will not have such a blazing flame. The cause of this phenomenon is really puzzling.
At the same time, the instrument also received a large earthquake wave. The source of the earthquake wave was also in the direction of Loulan. Although the shock wave transmitted here was not strong and only caused slight shaking, if the power weakened by the distance was restored, it would be very terrifying. Earth-shattering.
"Could it be that... there was a big earthquake in Loulan?"
Xu Jiangzi's guess was immediately rejected by Shan Laduo, "It's impossible. Large-scale earthquakes rarely occur outside the territory like in China. With Loulan's technology, we have the absolute ability to detect in advance, carry out alarms and respond, and even Channel the energy that will explode underground to prevent earthquakes from happening."
Yuwen Guihe nodded and said: "That's right. The report of our monitoring personnel also said that these shock waves are different from the shock waves of earthquakes. They are not caused by the energy vented from the ground. They are more likely to be caused by heavy objects hitting the ground. As for More specific information... Since our personnel only have a partial understanding of those instruments, they cannot determine any more detailed information."
Just hearing this, Xu Jiangzi knew that something had indeed happened in Loulan, and that it might be a very serious disaster. However, just from this, it was impossible to draw the exaggerated conclusion of "Loulan's demise". There must be some further information. , especially... Yuwen Guihe has a way to directly contact the Sun King. When encountering such a big event, there is no way he would come and make a fuss without contacting the Sun King first.
"Teacher, did he say something? No, teacher, he must have said something. You tell me right away!" When he said this, Xu Jiangzi also lost his usual calmness and became harsh and harsh. Suddenly, Suddenly, his heart became extremely frightened, as if something very important had been destroyed. This whole emotion was completely tense, as if it would explode with just the slightest stimulation, and even surpassed the feeling given by Master Akagi when he died. own impact.
"Your Majesty... we did not contact him directly, but when we tried to contact him, we received a message from him." Yuwen Guihe hesitated a little, not sure whether he should continue speaking, because he was holding on to his clothes tightly. Not only did Xu Jiangzi's face turn pale, but a kind of madness gradually flashed in his eyes. Even if it was the first time he saw it, Yuwen Guihe knew the danger, but in the end, the sense of mission still prevailed.
"The information we receive is as follows: Tianhuo ... Destroy ... Don't come back ... Live good ... never believe in the Chinese people ..."
Yuwen Guihe said: "We have reason to believe that the words sent by Her Majesty, the last three sentences are what you said to the leader."
"These ... have it been determined by the teacher, did he send it in person? Will anyone pretend?"
"Impossible, these secret words are published and interpreted, each of which has seven secrets, it is indeed a Majesty he personally sent it."
The words of Yuwen Turtle Crane were exported, which was a series of sounds. Xu Jiangzi waved his arm and swept everything on the desktop. Then he turned the heavy pure steel table case.
Although I did n’t use my true qi, I punched my blood full of blood, and even the alloy wall was beaten down.
In fact, even without the confirmation of Yuwen Turtle Crane, Xujiangzi knows that those words are from the sun king, because that 100 % is the tone and thinking of the sun king, and he can even guess from those words.
What happened.
A disaster beyond imagination threatened Loulan. Even the sun king had no confidence to spend it peacefully. As the patriarch, he could not leave the tribe to escape alone.
He spread his words in particular, making a crisis ... maybe even the last entrustment before the end of death.
The disaster of this sky is inexplicable, but the sun king has not forgotten the sentence "never believe Chinese people" in the end.
There are not many people. There are only a handful of Chinese people who can be involved in Loulan. Among them, the only thing that can threaten the sun king is Tianmao and ... Ximen Zhuyu.
According to the may 'sex' to judge, the demon is undoubtedly the number one suspect. It may be that the sex 'as high as 99 %. This person is not only amazing, but also knows that the state of the sun is not good.
Taking advantage of the gap, but Ximen Zhu Yu's mind has always been able to get it, maybe it may be ...
Xu Jiangzi shook his head and threw off the unnecessary thoughts in his mind. He understood that he heard these news. The square inch had been 'chaotic', and Hu "chaotic 'suspecting people came. But at this moment, Xu Jiangzi really understood it really understanding
The status of the sun in his heart, such as his father, is so unable to replace it, but why did he realize that when he realized this, it was time to lose this person from here?
"Hey! You have something wrong, how deeply your breath."
Shanrado's hand, patted Xujiangzi's shoulder, was full of worry. Even if Shanra Duo was weird, but the sun king was her relative. When she heard her father something wrong, she could not be indifferent.
But ... seeing Xu Jiangzi's response is more intense than himself, that feeling is really weird.
"I know you are very excited now, but what kind of situation is Loulan, no one knows yet, don't pick it up to get out of control, don't forget, don't forget, your body has not really recovered.
The damage is great. "
Shanra Dot is "color": "You know, if Loulan really has something, then you are the real leader of everyone here. Everyone's future depends on you alone. If you don't take care of yourself
What should we do? "
If Loulan is destroyed, no troops will be sent to attack this place, and Xu Jiangzi's importance to the prisoners will naturally be reduced. Shanladuo's words can be said to be very strange, but the sense of responsibility it points out makes Xu Jiangzi
Wake up and slowly regain your composure.
"I...I understand...I will calm down."
Xu Jiangzi breathed slowly, suddenly his feet became weak, and he almost fell to the ground. Sure enough, as Shanladuo said, his body had not really recovered. He had followed her before, barely moved, and endured violent mood swings. Now he regained consciousness.
I just feel pain everywhere in my body, and I can't even stand still.
"I knew it!"
Shan Laduo helped Xu Jiangzi sit down, and with a clean and neat movement, she threw a pill into Xu Jiangzi's mouth.
'Swallow it, Yuwen Guihe next to him saw it and really admired the tacit understanding between the two people.
"Leader, there is one thing that you may have noticed. Many of the people in this prison are illegitimate children of Loulan and slave tribes, and some are Loulan people who have committed crimes. We have just learned that something big has happened in Loulan.
You have seen how everyone reacted to the news."
"...I understand what you mean."
Xu Jiangzi recalled the expressions of the people he had just seen. After hearing the bad news about Loulan, no one showed any joy. Everyone looked worried, as if it was not the enemy who was in trouble, but his hometown.
……hometown!
This is exactly what Yuwen Guihe wants to point out. Although they are in a hostile position with Loulan, in the hearts of all the prisoners, they are still a part of Loulan, but they are not recognized. Emotionally, Loulan is always theirs.
In our hometown, even if we are at war with each other and fighting life and death, this sense of identity has not changed. So when something happened in Loulan, this feeling was immediately revealed, and everyone became anxious like ants on the hot pot.
"I understand. Mr. Yuwen, please prepare transportation for me. I will leave immediately and rush to Loulan to check what's going on."
Xu Jiangzi said, turning his head sideways, wanting to speak to Shanladuo next to him, but Shanladuo seemed to have known that he would do this, took out a syringe from his pocket, and without saying a word, gave the injection.
On the side of Xu Jiangzi's neck, the yellowish medicine was injected. Xu Jiangzi's eyes soon became dim, and he gradually lost consciousness as the power of the medicine took effect.
"As you wish, this thing is a work I am researching. It only has 80% of the expected effect, but it is already the most powerful of all my healing medicines. It is estimated that after two hours
, you can temporarily regain your mobility. Such a strong 'medicine' will of course have some side effects and will cause harm to the body in the future, but you must not care about it now, right?"
Xu Jiangzi, who had already passed out, did not answer, but when he woke up again, it was already two hours later. Zaraduo was sitting next to him, and the two of them were riding a maglev car together.
It was driven by a robot among the prisoners, using unsteady and poor skills, and drove at high speed in the direction of Loulan.
All the prisoners in the arsenal knew where they were going and what they were going to do, but no one thought it was inappropriate or wanted to stop them. They were waiting to investigate the situation in Loulan, carrying the hope of all the prisoners.
Along the way, Xujiangzi didn't say a word, but just sat still and luck to make his injuries improve. When he arrived in Loulan, he could face more capital changes.
assist.
Arriving at Loulan was the afternoon of two days later. This speed was not fast, but it was already the fastest they could, and the Lan Lan that I saw in front of me was full of soreness.
In the memory of Xujiangzi, Loulan is a very magnificent metropolis. The tall buildings are like forests and giant tower towering. Even if it is a long distance, it is clearly visible, but this time, in the near way, except that the thickness of the heavenly rushed to the sky was dense to the sky.
Black smoke, there is no ability to see any familiar buildings on the line.
When they entered the range of hundreds of miles in Loulan, with the telescope, they saw something, which was a completely severe bombardment after being bombarded by huge power.
There are many wreckage of building materials, and there are many things that have been burned into coke on the side. It is completely distorted and deforms.
There is a special red 'color' on the ground, which is the sand of the sand that sucks blood and was burned by high temperature fire.
A big disaster, although it is impossible to confirm whether everyone is dead, but no signs of life are seen here, it is an obvious fact.
The most puzzled thing about Xujiangzi is that although the disaster scene was fierce, there were wreckage of houses, but the biocked corpse was not large.
There is no other trace, a large city has disappeared like this.
"Loulan ... what's wrong? Even if it is destroyed, there should be a wreckage. How can it disappear?"
Xujiangzi was surprised to be unable to add, but Shanra Dot was much more calm. She had contacted the entire urban system of Loulan and understood the ins and outs of the dragon.
Big damage, when it cannot be repaired, it will be dispersed and sneaked into the ground. "
"Sneak into the ground? Do you mean, the whole city sinks under the ground?"
"It can be said, but before diving, the entire city will automatically decompose, becoming multiple decentralized blocks, entering the ground, long -term hidden, absorbing metal substances of the ground veins, used to repair the building, until the damage suffered until the restoration is completed, it is completed.
It is possible to come up. "
"So magical?"
There was a hint of hope in Xujiangzi. If Loulan's technology is so amazing, it may be possible to take any unexpected protection measures when the disaster is coming to protect the lives of most people.
Laduo shook his head slowly but definitely shook his head.
"This program that decomposes and enters the ground will never reach this step at less than the last moment. It is reasonable that if this happens, all residents in the city may be ..."
This desperate announcement gradually came true soon. With the deepening of the car, the strong scorching smell strikes, everyone must cover up the nose and nose to continue. This is not just because of the odor.
It is also because all those who breathe in the lungs are all high -temperature heat. If the filtration is not blocked first, the lungs will be burned first, and there are still smoke on the ground. There are still many places.
At a certain height, it was walking with a wheels, and it had been burning for a long time. It was impossible to drive inside.
Although they had such an advantage, as they went deeper and deeper, everyone felt that they could no longer support themselves. Xu Jiangzi had the best internal strength, but his injuries had not healed and it was difficult to withstand the high fever for a long time. Others were even more unbearable. Shanla
Duo's martial arts skills were low, and she was burned by the high temperature. Her skin was red and hot, and her hair was curled up. However, she remained silent and stood quietly beside Xu Jiangzi.
Xu Jiangzi really wanted to find some clues. He originally thought that no matter what kind of disaster he encountered, no matter how badly Loulan was hurt, he could at least ask the survivors something. Who knew the situation was so serious that he couldn't find it here?
Half of the survivors have no way of knowing the situation of the Sun King.
"What the hell is going on here?"
He asked softly to himself, and got an answer from Zanladuo.
"Meteorites. Fires don't fall from the sky for no reason. They are rocks from outside the sky that rub against the air to create fire and become sky fire. According to the situation in front of us, it seems that Loulan was attacked by a meteorite. One or several huge meteorites from outside the sky.
Here, Loulan was destroyed... However, it makes no sense. Even if you are unlucky enough to be hit by a meteorite, you should have a period of time to adapt, enough to escape on a spaceship, so how can you die to the point where no one is left?"
Xu Jiangzi was naturally incapable of answering the question that Shanladuo couldn't even think of. However, what Shanladuo said also made him realize that several people in the car could no longer hold on.
"Let's leave here first, go to the outer area, and slowly look for clues."
Xu Jiangzi gave the order to retreat temporarily. After that, they searched for clues for several days. Xu Jiangzi and others searched separately to check the situation, working around the clock. Although they put in a lot of effort, they received very little in return. The entire Loulan
...This word is no longer applicable. This place is just a ruined ruin of a city that once existed... It is completely reduced to scorched earth, not to mention a living person, not even a worm or a blade of grass can be seen.
The center of the ruins is still surrounded by fire. It has been burning for several days, but the fire shows no sign of weakening at all. It is not known how long it will take to burn out. Xu Jiangzi still holds on to a glimmer of hope, praying that the Sun King is still there in the blazing fire.
, he survived with serious injuries due to his peerless martial arts. However, as time passed, his gradually calmer and clearer sense repeatedly denied such a possibility.
The power of this natural fire disaster is too great for any flesh and blood body to resist. No matter how high the martial arts is, it is impossible to withstand it. Especially when it comes to night, Xu Jiangzi and others look up at the night sky. For several nights in a row, Loulan's
The sky above seems to be affected by some kind of force. Although the surrounding clouds are thick, not even half of them can float over. It is like a big hole has been broken in the sky. This strange phenomenon is even more frightening and inexplicable. It is impossible to imagine the destructive nature when the tragedy happened.
How destructive is it?
What's more, with the Sun King's personality and pride, he will never leave his clan members to survive alone. He vows to protect Loulan and hold on to his position until the last moment to live up to his status as a king. In this way, the possibility of survival will be reduced.
Just minuscule.
Xu Jiangzi thought so, so one night, when he was half asleep and half awake, he suddenly noticed the smell of strangers in the wind and someone was nearby. He was surprised and happy, and jumped up all of a sudden.
.
Looking for the source of this breath, Xu Jiangzi hurried away. Soon after, a lonely figure standing quietly on the scorched earth came into his eyes. This person's attire was not Loulan, or even an outsider. He stood silently.
He stood there without making any sound, but his body exuded an aura of sadness, expressing silent condolences. The most important thing was... Xu Jiangzi recognized this person.
"Simon..."
When Xu Jiangzi arrived, Ximen Zhuyu also discovered him. However, this time Ximen Zhuyu did not smile and wave and call "Brother Ajiang", but his expression was empty. He hesitated for a long time and was speechless. Finally, he reluctantly squeezed out.
Say a sentence.
"I rushed over as soon as I got the news, but... it was still too late... No, when I got the news, it was already too late... I..."
"You bastard!"
Xu Jiangzi suddenly burst into rage and rushed towards Ximen Zhuyu. Even he himself did not understand why he was so angry, because in the past few days, he had clearly thought calmly and believed that Ximen Zhuyu would not harm the Sun King and Loulan.
Moreover, the disaster of sky fire should be a natural disaster. Why do you feel like you are seeing your enemies when you see your old friends?
Until this punch was thrown with all his strength, it hit Ximen Zhuyu's face. He could have dodged it, but he was hit in the face by this punch. For a moment, he was sent flying away, with eyes still in his eyes.
Showing his guilt, Xu Jiangzi finally understood where his anger came from.
From the very beginning, I did not believe that the sky fire attack on Loulan could be a pure natural disaster. However, it was just because it was too unbelievable. Even Shan Laduo said that meteorites from the sky cannot be controlled by human beings, so rationally,
would rule out this possibility, but at this moment
Seeing Ximen Zhuyu's expression and eyes, he immediately understood that the sky fire was definitely not a natural disaster. Someone must be planning behind the scenes to make this incredible disaster happen, and Ximen Zhuyu must have known about it, even if he was not involved.
, and must know.
Therefore, after Xu Jiangzi knocked down Ximen Zhuyu with one punch, he added a second punch, a series of heavy punches, which made Ximen Zhuyu's nose black and swollen, his face covered with blood, and his hair disheveled. Ever since he met Ximen Zhuyu on Mount Buzhou when he was a child,
This is the first time I see him in such a mess. If Ximen Zhuyu intends to resist
, even if he didn't take action to parry and just used his strength to protect himself, he wouldn't be beaten like this. As long as he thought about why he was beaten voluntarily, Xu Jiangzi's anger became even stronger. The grief and anger that he had suppressed for several days was like a river bursting its embankment.
All of it was vented in fists, until someone grabbed his fist from behind.
"Stop it! It doesn't matter if you beat this 'slut' to death, but it won't be worth it if you regret it in the future..."
The only one who could stop Xu Jiangzi at this time was Shanladuo. Considering Shanladuo's mood, Xu Jiangzi had to stop, stopped the meaningless beating, and gave the person who had been beaten a chance to speak.
.
"...I'm sorry to both of you, and also to His Majesty the Sun King..."
Ximen Zhuyu's first sentence was said in an extremely sullen tone, and he felt guilty. Xu Jiangzi's anger surged again, but he did not lose his mind. He first looked at Shanladuo's expression, and then looked at Ximen Zhuyu.
"My cooperation with His Majesty the Sun King was found out by the Demon Sect. They planned to trap me in Middle-earth, while the Heavenly Demon came to operate outside the territory. A few months ago, you brought the Heavenly Demon back in disgrace. He planned a counterattack and operated secretly.
Frequently, I have been paying attention and tried to get in touch with Loulan, but His Majesty the Sun King cut off contact with me, and I was preoccupied with many things and could not come outside the territory..."
The battle between Ximen Zhuyu and the demon lasted for several months. Ximen Zhuyu was originally convinced that everything was in his estimation, but because of a miscalculation, he lost everything.
There is not just one treasure that the Demon Sect has passed down from generation to generation. The most mysterious one, the Ever-Changing Heavenly Demon, is of course a secret technique that only the masters are allowed to practice. There are also some other treasures that only the masters are allowed to practice.
Some of the secret objects that only human beings can come into contact with are indeed valuable treasures, but... some are just trash and worthless.
It sounds ridiculous, but Ximen Zhuyu really never imagined that among so much garbage and useless waste, there would be a strange treasure sleeping quietly somewhere in the Demon Gate. No one has discovered its true purpose, but it is in Taiping.
After the outbreak of the Military Rebellion, the Demon was inspired by those magic weapons, found a way to use it, and tried every possible means to meet the stringent conditions for activating it.
"This magic weapon comes from the same source as the Hundred-Change Heavenly Demon. It probably also comes from Loulan, the source of the White Tiger, the ancestor of the people. It somehow ended up in the hands of the Demon Sect... Its function is to activate the Heavenly Fire...
"
Skyfire burned the city, and Loulan fell overnight. Ximen Zhuyu, who had just finished a life-and-death battle on the battlefield in Middle-earth, was shocked to hear the bad news and vomited blood and fell down on the spot.
It was too late to hear the news. When the news was received, the incident had already happened and nothing could be done to undo it. After Ximen Zhuyu regained consciousness, he immediately abandoned the affairs of China and came to the outside world.
"Things have already happened, and it won't help if I come here, but out of respect for His Majesty, I should come here anyway..."
Ximen Zhuyu said: "If you hadn't cooperated with me, Loulan would not have become a thorn in the devil's side. I am responsible for this. I feel deeply guilty to you two. If I am alive in the future, I will definitely repay this debt to you."
"What...are you giving back? What we lost, you..."
Xu Jiangzi wanted to say, "Things lost will never come back." As he spoke, he looked at Ximen Zhuyu's dejected look and thought that in this troubled world, who has not lost a lot? Ximen Zhuyu has lost a lot.
He is exhausted on the battlefield, and in terms of sacrifice and loss, he will only lose more than himself.
Moreover, from this situation, it sounds like Ximen Zhuyu is not wronging the Sun King. He did not intend to cause any harm. He is not even close to the murderer. If you insist on finding him to settle accounts, it is just a pointless anger and no order.
The real enemy is applauded.
After calming down, Xu Jiangzi didn't know what to say, and he even felt sorry for beating his friend into a pig's head. After hesitating for a while, Shanladuo had something to say.
"That old guy... is a very arrogant person. If you say that he was killed by you or was implicated by you, then he will not rest in peace even if he dies. Since you think you are sorry for him, then don't be here
Nonsense, do something you really should do, let him, let us see your sincerity."
Shanla Duo said these words very calmly, as if he was talking about something irrelevant, but in Ximen Zhuyu's ears, it was more effective than any other motivation. He suddenly regained his energy, jumped up and said to Shan La Duobi
Thumbs up.
"Okay! She is indeed the daughter of a king. She indeed has an extraordinary demeanor. Let me tell you, His Majesty the Sun King is definitely not fooled when he cooperates with me, because in his heart, he has the same dream as me, so he was willing to believe in me at the beginning, and
Entrust me with your dream, and I guarantee that this dream will come true one day."
After Ximen Zhuyu finished speaking, he handed over his hand and was about to leave, but he looked at Xu Jiangzi, hesitated for a moment, and sighed: "Brother Ajiang has been reborn. His Majesty the Sun King will have a successor. The dream of peace outside the territory of China will eventually be realized."
, but to realize this dream, you have to return to China sooner or later. At this moment, I have two things to tell you."
"What's wrong?"
"First, the heavenly monster is completely crazy. No matter what you know before, when you enter the middle of the earth, you can avoid him and avoid it."
Xu Jiangzi was stunned. It seems that during this time when he left, the Middle -earth war bureau must have changed again. Even the heavenly monster became crazy, let alone how much the rest of the personnel changed.
"Second point ... alas, it is difficult to say a word, and this matter should not be for me. I can only show it to you. If you enter the middle of the earth within two months, don’t let anyone know, don’t go
When you come into contact with anyone, go straight to the Ziyun Cave under the mountains. If you look at the situation there, you will know everything. "
"Where is Ziyun Cave? What is there?"
"If I tell you now, you will definitely regret let me do it."
Ximen Zhu Yu did not answer positively, but Xu Jiangzi understood at a glance, where there must be things related to his third sister and brother, and Ximen Zhu Yu's words would be so strange.
