The Rat Taoist's frontal combat effectiveness is not strong, but when it comes to digging holes in mountains and digging into cracks, his methods are unrivaled in the world.
The ruins of the city lord's mansion were trampled on by Zen Master Dingguang and were as hard as iron stone. The prisoners of war were using sledgehammers and drills to pry bit by bit, but the progress was still slow.
But as soon as Taoist Rat took action, his sharp claws flew, and the hard earth and rocks were easily pulled to both sides like mud.
Not long after, Taoist Rat dug a long and narrow cave, just enough for him to walk freely inside.
But he dug around and couldn't find the city lord's seal that Tuoba Yu mentioned.
Although he couldn't dig in the ground these days, he often checked with Tuoba Yu about his location.
The City Lord's Mansion was completely destroyed, and it was very difficult for Tuoba Yu to locate it. However, he also drew a general range, but now that he was taking action, there was no sign of the City Lord's Seal anywhere.
"Where is your city lord's palace seal?"
Taoist Rat's patience was about to run out, and Tuoba Yu was secretly worried. If he couldn't provide the treasure, I'm afraid this Taoist with a sly eyebrow wouldn't let him go so easily.
But the City Lord's Mansion not only collapsed, but also the impact of the monks' battles caused damage to the City Lord's Mansion again and again.
Although the material of his City Lord's Palace Seal is good, it may not be able to withstand such trampling.
He figured it out, but he didn't dare to say that. Instead, he said in a deceptive way: "Maybe that thing is smaller and can be stepped on deeper. Otherwise, master, can you dig deeper?"
Rat Taoist: "..."
It makes sense to say that, but when things don't go well, he is always a little irritable, and now he can only dig deeper.
No matter what, he must get this treasure. Only in this way will his position in the organization be more stable.
While digging downward, he slowly felt a chill, which seemed to be coming from below.
Is there a baby down there?
The rat Taoist became excited. He was sure that this thing was definitely not the catalog he was looking for, because the catalog would not be so cold, but something that could make him feel the chill from a long distance must be a treasure.
This is an unexpected surprise.
The rat Taoist was full of motivation and dug even harder. After a while, he finally reached the end.
It was a piece of scales blooming with blue light. The scales were about the size of a human head, and they were constantly releasing chill outwards.
Not knowing what kind of treasure this was, Taoist Rat was so excited that he reached out to grab it, but the scales suddenly rose into the air, accompanied by a dragon roar.
In a daze, Taoist Rat seemed to see a real dragon flying high into the sky.
This must be a treasure related to the real dragon!
Taoist Rat was heartbroken. The treasure was right in front of him. He dug hard for a long time before digging it out. This thing actually grew wings and flew by itself!
Damn it!
At this time, Tuoba Yu ran over excitedly. He was in a soul state and it was easier to find things. While Taoist Rat was concentrating on digging the soil, he also searched nearby and found his city lord's seal.
The city lord's seal has been broken, but the cloth with the mysterious illustrations engraved on it is still intact.
"Master, I have found the thing."
Rat Taoist: "..."
"Master, why are you unhappy?"
Rat Taoist: "..."
If he didn't see the treasure, he might be happy. After all, this thing was not in the plan, but he was about to get it, just a little bit away!
The treasure was obviously not destined for him, but he was asked to dig dozens of meters deep, and it was all in vain.
How could this make him not angry?
Fortunately, there was also a picture album of the twelve zodiac signs. Taoist Rat checked it and found that it was indeed the authentic one, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, with this thing, it is considered stable.
"You did a great job, what reward do you want?"
Taoist Rat tried his best to look at Tuobayu with a kind face. Even though he was equally ugly like this, Tuobayu still endured his nausea and said: "I want the method of immortality."
Rat Taoist: "..."
This man is also really young.
He originally planned to give him something to kill himself, but he didn't expect Tuoba Yu to be so greedy.
There are many techniques of immortality in this world, and there are also techniques of immortality, but how can such a precious method be taught so easily.
What's more, Taoist Rat himself doesn't know the art of immortality, so how can he teach Tuoba Yu.
But he still agreed and said: "I agree, master, but this method can only be taught after returning to the master's sect."
"Then when will we go back?"
Tuoba Yu was very anxious. He had no idea that he was already a dead ghost in the eyes of Taoist Rat. He was still imagining how he would come back to seek revenge on Lin Yi after practicing the method of immortality in the future!
"Let's wait and see. I just worked hard to dig out the secret treasure for my teacher. That treasure has a cause and effect with me. No matter who gets it, he must benefit me a little bit.
I'm going to find the treasure, so you can stay in the gourd for a while!"
"Oh well!"
Although Tuoba Yu was reluctant, he had no choice but to obey.
He saw Taoist Rat take out a green bottle and got into it without thinking.
But as soon as he entered, he immediately realized that something was wrong.
The original jade gourd was meant to warm the soul, but as soon as he entered the current gourd, he felt as if his whole body was being burned.
"Master, what's going on?"
"Don't worry, disciple, this is the soul refining power of the gourd that has been activated for me. If you stay in it for a while, your soul will be more stable. This soul refining power consumes my mana. Don't let me down."
Very kindhearted."
"That's it. Thank you Master."
Although it is very painful, I can still bear it now.
Taoist Rat sneered in his heart, how did this fool manage to be the prince for so long without being killed?
He has indeed activated the power of soul refining, but this is already another gourd.
This gourd does not nourish the soul, it only refines the soul.
After putting away the gourd and treasure record, Taoist Rat soared into the sky and chased in the direction where the scales flew away.
He wants to see who dares to steal his treasure!
When the time comes, he will have to go and steal something!
These blue scales are naturally dragon scales, and they are also scales with water attributes. It seems to have the ability to accurately guide, and it quickly locked onto Xiao Se's position and flew towards Xiao Se's position.
At this time, Xiao Se had four scales shining on her body, representing the four powers of wind, thunder, fire, and earth. She felt the abundant water vapor outside, and also faintly felt the power of this dragon scale.
This is the water dragon scale, and this is probably the last dragon scale.
When the water dragon scale arrived, Xiao Se also felt something in his heart.
However, just as she was preparing to welcome the arrival of this dragon scale, the falling dragon scale seemed to be imprisoned by some force and suddenly stopped motionless in the sky.
At the same time, a middle-aged man with a majestic face walked out of the rain curtain.
He curled one hand into a claw shape, as if grabbing the water dragon scale in the air.
This man is none other than the Dragon Wolf King.
After the dragon scales flew into the sky, he felt the abundant dragon energy.
This is the baby showing up!
Immediately, the Dragon Wolf King didn't care about hiding anymore, he directly manifested his human form and chased after Dragon Scale.
It was at this time that he showed his true strength. Even with dragon scales, he could not escape his pursuit. When he was about to land, he was restrained by the Dragon Wolf King.
The Dragon Wolf King originally thought there was only one dragon scale, but he didn't expect that Xiao Se had four more scales here.
"It turns out that my opponent is you!"
The Dragon Wolf King looked at Xiao Se's four dragon scales, his eyes filled with greed and excitement.
Not to mention, he was ready to fight Ji Yi, but he didn't expect that his opponent would be such a little girl.
Isn't this equivalent to giving her a treasure?
"Hahaha, it seems that it is God's will. Little girl, thank you for giving me the treasure. My chance to transform into a dragon is today!"
From a wolf to a dragon, this is such an inspiring story!
The Dragon and Wolf King has already figured out how to spread his deeds in the world. By then, he will be unknown to everyone, and he no longer has to keep a low profile. He can make it public as much as he wants.
Because he is a dragon!
When Xiao Se saw the appearance of the Dragon Wolf King, he also felt a huge sense of crisis.
However, Xiao Se was not afraid.
She knew that this must be a test given to her by God.
The opponent is indeed very strong, but she can only fight.
With a thought in Xiao Se's mind, nine golden talismans appeared beside her, surrounding her.
Four dragon scales were also hidden into her forehead, hands and left foot.
Seeing the runes appearing next to Xiao Se, the Dragon Wolf King was also startled.
If the other party was only a first-grade monk, he wouldn't be afraid, but with the Nine-Path Golden Barrel, there was something special about it.
It seems that the other party has a lot of background.
Originally he wanted to snatch all the opponent's dragon scales off in one go, but now the Dragon Wolf King is a little more fearful.
"My little friend, it turns out that you are not ordinary. In this case, I won't snatch your treasure. However, I saw this dragon scale first and it belongs to me. How about it?"
The Dragon Wolf King made a good calculation. He wanted to obtain the water dragon scales first, so that he could transform into a dragon. Even if he did not transform into a dragon, his strength would be greatly improved, and then he could snatch Xiao Se's treasure. In this way,
More stable.
But Xiao Se is not a silly person. She sneered and said sarcastically: "Since you have the spirit of a dragon and want to transform into a dragon, you should know that the dragon is a noble and holy spirit, but you are full of dirty thoughts. Even if you have a
What about dragon energy?
Not to mention you have only one dragon scale, even if you give me five dragon scales, you won't be able to transform into a dragon. If you directly attack me, I will still think more highly of you. Now it seems that you are no match for me.
Back off!”
Not to mention, Xiao Se's words were very powerful. As she said these words, the dragon scales around her body shone even more.
The water dragon scales under the control of the Dragon Wolf King also struggled even more fiercely.
Four dragon scales have great attraction to one dragon scale.
What's more, Xiao Se's mind is purer and more pleasing to Long Lin.
The Dragon Wolf King felt the struggle of Water Dragon Scale and was ridiculed by Xiao Se again. He was worried and angry for a moment.
Not to mention, his momentum did weaken a bit because of these words, but it was impossible for him to retreat.
A bit of ferocity gradually appeared in the Dragon Wolf King's eyes. He stared at Xiao Se and said in a cold voice: "Since you want to die, I will help you! Ouch!"
A wolf howl resounded throughout Chang'an City.
For a time, every household in Chang'an City panicked.
Wolf?
How could a wolf break into the city?
Lu Yuanhua didn't know whether this wolf howl was expected by Lin Yi, but regardless of whether it was, as the chief executive, he needed to respond appropriately.
What's more, Lin Yi temporarily handed all the military symbols into his hands. Now he is the top military and political officer of Chang'an City, so he is naturally responsible for Chang'an City.
"Go down with the order and dispatch the soldiers and horses in the city to protect the people in the city."
"Military advisor, we don't have enough manpower."
The people guarding the city gates cannot be mobilized. Chang'an City is very big, and the thousand people who are recruited by Ji Yi cannot control it.
Lu Yuanhua also knew this, and immediately set off, saying: "Go to the prisoner of war camp and ask for help!"
"this……"
I have to say, this is very risky.
There were 80,000 prisoners of war in Chang'an City, but including Xiao Yue's troops, Lin Yi's 1,000 security team, and the 5,000 people guarding the city, the total amount was less than 10,000.
It can be said that the combat effectiveness of the prisoner of war camp was stronger than that of the official camp.
But this step was originally part of Xiao Yue's plan. Her first step was to give benefits to the prisoners of war so that they could work with peace of mind, but it was just a benefit, and they would leave one day.
If you want to keep them, you must give them a sense of identity, so that the prisoners of war also feel that they are one of their own.
What better way to build a sense of identity than to work together against the enemy?
Lu Yuanhua couldn't let others help with such a big matter. He came to the prisoner of war camp in person. The howling of wolves had woken everyone up.
Lu Yuanhua also got straight to the point and said: "Everyone, you must have heard the howl of the wolf just now. There is a demon wolf suddenly appearing in the city. I am afraid that it will harm the people, but the army is not in the city and the city guard is not strong enough.
At this moment, I can only implore all the brave men to pick up their swords and guns and protect the people of this city with the momentum of an army."
With that said, Lu Yuanhua bowed to the many prisoners of war, his sincerity was very high. Moreover, he just called everyone "Pao Ze". This is usually only said to his own people. How could the enemy be called "Pao Ze"?
But not many people paid attention to this detail, and those who did noticed it silently accepted the title.
But in the prisoner-of-war camp, someone asked loudly: "Aren't you afraid that we will take weapons and occupy Chang'an?"
As soon as these words were said, the atmosphere on the field became solemn.
Lu Yuanhua smiled calmly and said loudly: "In the past few days, you must also know about our princess's deeds."
Although the prisoners of war worked hard, they always had time to rest, and when they got together to eat, they always had to chat and relieve their boredom.
The topic that gets the most attention is of course Princess Tianxuan.
In just a few days, Princess Tianxuan's deeds spread throughout the prison camp.
As a princess, she was sold as food rations. After the uprising, she didn't want to go against her uncle or go to war with her fellow tribesmen, so she turned around and saw the miserable life of the common people, and then she came up with the idea of expelling the Tartars.
, the ambition to restore the Central Plains.
But this expulsion of the Tartars did not mean to drive out all the barbarians, but to kill and expel the leaders who had committed many evil deeds.
The soldiers in the prisoner-of-war camps were not entirely Han Chinese, there were also a large number of barbarians.
But the life of these barbarians may not be easy. It may be slightly better than that of the Han people, but they are still oppressed.
Like Tuoba Yu's rebellious behavior in Chang'an City, are only the Han people suffering?
No, the barbarians can't escape either.
Therefore, many Hu soldiers did not dislike Xiao Yue at all, but admired this heroine very much.
In a few days, Xiao Yue's ambition became known to the public. She did not want to dominate the world or become king and emperor. She just wanted to give all the poor people a place to live and settle down.
Not only among prisoners of war, but also in the ears of ordinary people in Chang'an City, you can often hear such words.
This is the role of publicity, and Xiao Yue is not just publicity, she actually does it.
After taking the city of Chang'an, no harm was done to the people of Chang'an. Regardless of Han or Hu, as long as they were not evil-doers, they would be protected.
The same goes for prisoners of war in the army. The public's eyes are sharp. Even if there are some bad guys with ambitions among them, most of them are good.
Lu Yuanhua said sincerely: "Of course I am also worried that some of you may mutiny or cause chaos, but we think the safety of the people is more important.
Moreover, before leaving, the princess also said that although you worked for Tuoba Yu, you are not bad people. You were also ordinary people, and you only enlisted in the army out of desperation.
You are all part of the suffering people, so we are not enemies.
I believe in the princess's judgment, and I believe in you. Well, time is running out. Those who are willing to follow us to protect the people should go to the Ordnance Department to get weapons. Those who are unwilling to follow, I also hope that you will not run around, it is best to gather in one place, Demon Wolf
He is fierce, and he will definitely not dare to be presumptuous when seeing many people."
Lu Yuanhua didn't give these people too much time to think, because the excitement only happened all at once and would cool down over time.
After he finished speaking, voices slowly appeared in the crowd responding to him.
When the first one appears, more and more will follow.
Gradually, the slogan "Serve the princess and protect the people" resounded throughout the world, and Lu Yuanhua was also filled with joy.
How else would the predecessors say that attacking the city is the next best thing and attacking the heart is the best thing?
If we capture these 80,000 people, not to mention the demon wolves, the city of Chang'an will be stable. Of course, it is unrealistic for everyone to return home, and more than half of them will be enough.
And he not only gained the morale of the military, but also the hearts of the people.
When the people were frightened by the soul-stirring howl of the demon wolf, the slogans of "Serve the princess and protect the people" also calmed them down.
Even if the wind and rain are heard constantly, it can't cover up this powerful voice.
At this moment, the morale of the military and the people were connected as one.
Lu Yuanhua braved the rain and personally led patrols, tightly surrounding the residential areas of Chang'an City, and temporarily moving those areas that were not densely populated to densely populated areas.
The workload is huge and everyone works hard, but with Lu Yuanhua standing in front, no one has to step back.
Huang Zhang had just arranged the Night Parade of Hundreds of Ghosts in Cuizhu Study, and when he came back to join Tian Zhen, he saw this scene, and both of them were stunned on the spot.
They all thought that the problem would not be big after solving Ji Yi's problem. Although Lu Yuanhua was also a first-class person, he was not good at fighting. They could deal with him with just anyone.
After all, the second grade of Jingtian Sect is not an ordinary second grade.
But who would have thought that Sirius's army had already set out for battle, and so many menacing troops suddenly appeared at home?
It's numb, it's numb.
On top of the tall building, Yan Qingqiu glanced at the two of them and stopped paying attention.
