The moon is bright, the stars are sparse, the night wind is biting, and it is extremely cold tonight.

A soldier on duty at night secretly took out the wine bottle from his arms and took a sip.

"Alcohol? Do you dare to bring alcohol during the vigil? It will be confiscated."

"Don't worry, Mr. Feng, it's just a small pot like this, just to warm you up."

"I want to warm myself up and go home. It's warm under the covers."

"It's warm under the quilt, but I can't get the money and my wife won't open the door."

After Bingyouzi, who had his wine bottle taken away, said this, he immediately burst into laughter.

Feng Shi took a few sips of old wine and muttered: "What the hell is the weather? It was sunny just now. No wonder Yun Xiaozi said there is rain in the mountains. It seems that it will be hard to survive tonight."

The autumn rain was the coldest, and Feng Shi was reluctant to finish the wine. He put the jug in his arms and walked to the top of the city listening to the sound of clappers.

He was upright and had to patrol the city every hour.

"King Xuan comes to the city every night, saying he wants to see the scenery. Even when it gets dark, the scenery is amazing. These royal relatives all have weird habits... What does it smell like?"

Feng Shi smelled a quiet floral fragrance. The fragrance was very light and was quickly blown away by the night wind.

"Is it the fragrance of flowers outside the city?"

Feng Shi leaned over the city wall and looked out. He didn't see any flowers, but he saw some strange red dots shaking in the darkness below the city.

Feng Shi looked carefully and found that those red dots were actually scarlet eyeballs.

"There is a monster outside the city! Be careful!"

Feng Shi's roar resounded through the night sky and could be heard clearly across three streets.

The peaceful night was broken.

The demon tribe moved strangely and came to surround the city.

When a torch is thrown off the city wall, even the battle-hardened Shouzheng turns pale.

There are densely packed monsters under the city, including wolf monsters, bear monsters, ferocious oxen and strange tigers. All kinds of monsters block the city gate, numbering in the hundreds or even thousands.

"Open the magic circle to protect the city gate, and light the beacon fire to ask for help from the border troops."

A tall man in black robe appeared at the top of the city and issued orders calmly. When they saw this man, the defenders knelt down and worshiped him, calling him His Royal Highness King Xuan.

Feng Shi was responsible for opening the magic circle, and someone else lit the beacon fire. The terrain of Wanghai Town was relatively high, and the border troops hundreds of miles away could see the light of the fire even at night.

King Xuan personally took command, and the defenders calmed down and performed their duties, guarding against the demon clan's offensive.

A low humming sound came from the top of the city, the aura of the formation filled the air, and the originally heavy city gate was covered with a layer of golden light.

"City Gate Array?"

Yunji drank the last glass of wine with his master when he suddenly heard the buzzing sound of the formation turning on.

The opening of the magic circle can only indicate one thing, and that is the siege of the city by the demon clan.

Wanghai Town has not been approached by monsters for many years, let alone besieged. Yunji planned to take a look. After he left, the drunken master staggered up and took the remaining half a kilogram of beef to the backyard woodshed.

"There is meat, let's eat it."

Lying in the woodshed was a small beast with fiery red fur and a sharp mouth. It turned out to be a red fox.

The red fox ate the beef in several bites and raised his head to look at the owner of the school who had adopted him for many days.

When Hu Yuanju first discovered the red fox, he took it in as a cat. Later, he found out that it was not a cat but a fox.

Foxes are wild beasts, unruly and unruly, and it is always inappropriate to keep them at home. However, the Master loves cats. Since he mistook foxes for cats, he cannot ignore them.

This is a period of cause and effect, but it is about to end.

"After all, the city is not the mountains and forests. The mountains are your place of freedom. It's time to go back."

As he spoke, Hu Yuanju stepped forward and picked up the red fox. The red fox did not struggle and was as docile as a cat, but its pair of fox eyes sparkled with a strange luster in the dark woodshed.

When the husband holding the red fox walked out of the woodshed, the red fox in his arms strangely disappeared and was replaced by a fox fur scarf wrapped around his neck.

The drunken steps changed from staggering to steady. The old master's face was red, as if he was reborn, and he stepped out of Wuyue Xuan with a smile that no one could understand.

When the master's figure passed by, several cats in the yard turned around and ran away with their hair standing on end.

…

There is no one at the top of the city.

The blue hair seemed to be covered with a layer of silver under the moonlight.

Inside the open black robe, the girl's petite body trembled slightly in the cold wind.

Although the night wind was cold, the girl named Ayao braved the cold wind and faced countless monsters outside the city for her brother's grand plan.

The wind is getting colder, as if ice and snow are coming.

Ayao subconsciously tightened her black robe and suddenly heard someone speaking behind her.

"The Youying flower is also called the monster attracting grass. It contains the power of moonlight and can drive monsters crazy. People who are born with body fragrance are rare. I have never heard of people who are born with the body fragrance of the Youying flower. Could it be that it is soaked in the flower water?

."

Ayao suddenly turned around, and there was a young man standing behind him. He was dressed in commoner clothes, had a delicate appearance, and his thin figure looked vulnerable.

After taking a deep breath, Yunji said: "It seems that the monsters outside the city came because of you."

"It's you..." Ayao wrapped herself in a black robe, not wanting anyone to see the small clothes inside the robe, and she felt very cold.

The boy opposite was the one who looked like a piece of ice that I saw at dusk.

"It's not profitable to start early. What's the use of attracting so many monsters? You don't want the monsters to massacre the city and destroy Wanghai Town." Yunji held his hand on the crenel and looked outside. Many torches were thrown outside the city.

, you can see that there are monsters wandering everywhere.

"No..." Ayao pursed her lips, not knowing how to explain.

"If they can't eat Youying flowers, they will become more and more violent, and sooner or later they will attack the city." Yunji withdrew his gaze, looked at the girl, and said: "The disaster is caused by you. Girls are all cute, but your behavior

Not cute at all, like a devil."

"I'm sorry..." Ayao shook her head, her face full of apology.

"What's the use of apologizing? If you don't explain clearly, you can only go to the city to feed the monsters." Yunji spread his hands, looking helpless.

"You are very brave to feed the princess to the demon." King Xuan, dressed in black robe, appeared next to the girl, his voice full of majesty.

"It's not that I'm brave, but it's the truth. If one person dies, a whole city will die. It's a very simple calculation. I've studied and I can understand it without counting my fingers."

"What kind of book are you studying? Can the fate of a princess be the same as that of an ordinary person?" King Xuan said coldly.

"Of course what I read is from the book of sages. The book says that all living beings are equal, and whoever doesn't work will have nothing to eat."

"If you don't work, you won't have food to eat? Which sage said so?"

"Xiaoya's grandfather is our village chief."

"Village chief...hahahaha!"

King Xuan suddenly burst out laughing and said: "You guys are so funny. Since we are destined to meet each other, I will not hide it from you. The monsters outside the city were indeed attracted by our brothers and sisters, but they were not used to harm the people of Wanghai Town.

Help me achieve great things. Don't worry. Ayao's body fragrance can only attract low-level monsters. No matter how many these monsters are, they can't be helped by Wanghai Town's magic circle. I can guarantee that after tonight, there will be no one in Wanghai Town.

casualties."

After listening to King Xuan's explanation, Yunji glanced at the beacon towering at the top of the city in the distance and said clearly: "It turns out that King Xuan's purpose is to attract the border troops to come for reinforcements and take the opportunity to win over the commander of the border troops. It seems that the rumors are true. You

He is planning to usurp the throne."

Unexpectedly, the young man opposite him figured out the key so quickly. King Xuan couldn't help but look at Yunji.

"That's right! Now that the emperor is fatuous and incompetent, I want to replace him. Do you have any opinions?"

"The world belongs to your Ji family. Whoever becomes the emperor has nothing to do with us people. I don't have a problem with your brothers even if they beat pig heads into dog heads."

Instead of being annoyed, Prince Xuan listened with great interest and said, "Ayao said that you are a bit special. I, Prince Xuan, are looking for talents and spend a lot of money to hire strange people from all over the world. I wonder if you are interested in helping this king to unify the country."
