Zhenri naturally knew that his situation was critical.
If the three masters attack together, he will have to give a complete account in three to five rounds at most.
Now is his only chance to escape!
As soon as Zhanri turned around, he simply turned his back to Gai Nie and the others. He mobilized his whole body's energy in an instant and tried his best to slash out a huge arc-shaped blood-red sword energy.
The sword energy flew out with a roar, soaring into the sky, completely tearing apart the roof that was already on the verge of collapse.
In the huge roar, the thick and thick roof ridges and beams shattered and disintegrated with blazing flames, and they all crashed to the floor below.
Facing these gadgets that weighed several hundred kilograms, Gai Nieweizhuang did not dare to resist rashly, so he had to withdraw his attacks to avoid them.
On the contrary, the ceremony immediately smashed through the wreckage of these houses, broke through the fire curtain, and tried to stay behind to cover the sun, but the people there had disappeared.
What is certain is that this guy must not have run far away, but it is not a wise move to search for an enemy who doesn't know where to hide in a sea of fire.
Even if Jianqing wasn't afraid at all, he still gave up the idea - he still had to protect Gai Nie from getting into trouble.
………………
Daze Mountain, on a certain mountain ridge, Wang Li was leading his troops, planning to give the farmers a surprise during the night.
Just as Wang Li was about to give the order, there was suddenly an earth-shaking loud noise. He hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a burst of fire rising into the sky, illuminating a large area of the already darkened sky.
Zhao Bu next to Wang Li immediately said, "This is the direction of Zuimenglou!"
Wang Li's eyes were full of shock, and he muttered in a strange tone, "Why did they make such a big fuss?"
Zhaobu didn't pay much attention to this movement, but immediately asked for instructions, "General Zhang Han is still at Zuimenglou! General, I will leave right now..."
Although Zhang Han wanted to investigate Zhao's department, he still believed in comradeship at the moment, and his first reaction was to go back and save people.
However, Wang Li calmly called out to Zhao Bu who was about to leave, "Why are you in such a hurry!"
"But..." Zhao Bu didn't understand.
He was so active in saving Zhang Han, of course, not because of his relationship with Pao Ze, but because he felt that Wang Li would be very concerned about Zhang Han's safety.
Zhang Han is the commander of the Shadow Secret Guard, a close relative of the emperor, and has a close relationship with Gu Xun, the national master.
If such an important person was killed because Wang Li invited him to Zuimeng Tower, even if he had the Wang family as his backer, the matter would be difficult to resolve.
Logically speaking, Wang Li would definitely be nervous about Zhang Han's safety at this time.
Regarding Zhao Bu's doubts, Wang Li gave his own explanation, "Who is Zhang Han? Who is the Shadow Guard? This situation cannot be difficult for him!"
"In my opinion, this is him capturing rebels."
"He is in the dark and we are in the light. We can all do our own thing."
Although he thought this explanation was nonsense, Bu Zhao still nodded in agreement without asking any more questions.
Whether Zhang Han dies or not has nothing to do with him. If the sky falls, it will be Wang Li who is the tall one, and it will not be his turn to take the blame.
At the end of the interlude, Wang Li turned to his soldiers and ordered, "Send my military order to blockade the area..."
At this time, a female voice sounded from the shadows, interrupting Wang Li's order, "Please wait a moment, general."
Wang Li frowned and looked in the direction where the sound came from.
At this time, the sun had completely set, the sky was dark, and there were several big trees where the sound came from, and the whole thing was shrouded in shadow.
A slender and tall figure walked out from behind the tree, but it was hard to see clearly, but the sword in her hand reflected a little bit of cold light, which attracted people's attention.
After Wang Li saw the sword clearly, a strange look appeared on his face again, as if he was in disbelief.
However, it only took him a short moment to calm down his emotions and seemed to have no reaction.
When Zhao Bu saw a stranger, he immediately drew his sword to protect Wang Li.
With so many soldiers here, he would definitely not be needed in action, but this was the time for him to express his infinite loyalty to General Kaka.
However, Wang Li raised his hand to signal the soldiers under his command to stay calm, and then told Zhao Bu, "Take the people back and wait for orders."
Zhao Bu followed suit this time and did not show any abnormality. He nodded and ordered many soldiers to retreat to the side.
Wang Li took the initiative to greet the person in the shadow, and asked curiously, "Xilu...are you from Luowang?"
Tian Yan slowly walked out of the shadows and responded calmly, "It seems that the general knows about me?"
After seeing Tian Yan, the uninvited guest, Wang Li's face darkened, "The general did learn about the sword Shuluo recently from a useless subordinate, but... I'm afraid it's not you!"
Tian Yan raised his sword and said, "Luo Wang Tianzi's first-class killer, Luo... this is me!"
The rules of the snare are that people can die, but the sword cannot.
If the Sword of Attribute is in her hand, then she is Atelier. Tian Yan said this with great confidence.
Wang Li snorted with a sullen face, "Does this general look like a fool?"
"I have seen the portraits of everyone (high-level officials) in the farmhouse. Do you think I don't recognize you?"
"The eldest lady of Lieshan Hall—Tian Yan!"
"I am Tian Yan, is there any conflict with the fact that I am a subordinate?" Tian Yan asked calmly, "I am not the only member of the net within the farm family."
"Uh..." Wang Li hesitated, wanting to refute but could only hold back his words.
Although he knew that Tian Yan was not a Lu, he couldn't show that he knew.
As the commander of the Hundred-War Armor-Piercing Soldier, Wang Li shouldn't know too much about the situation inside Luowang.
Therefore, he could only hold his nose and recognize Tian Yan's identity as "Shirou", and asked impatiently:
"Okay, just treat it like you are."
"Then you, a trap killer, what do you want to do with me, the general?"
"General, please withdraw your troops." Tian Yan said five words without hesitation.
………………
Outside the secret passage of Zuimeng Tower, Liu Ji looked at the fire soaring into the sky and couldn't help but sigh, "It's over... it's over..."
The Zhu family looked sad, stroking their beards and said strangely, "The intensity of the fire..."
Han Xin looked at the scene of the fire burning the sky with a calm face, patted Liu Ji on the shoulder, "You have to thank me."
Liu Ji, who was in a very bad mood, shook his shoulders and shook Han Xin's hand away. He stared and wondered, "How can I thank you? How can I thank you?"
The Zhu family said at this time, "Brother Liu Ji, look at the intensity of the fire. The explosion is much lighter than expected!"
"Huh?" Liu Ji hurriedly looked over.
It's a pity that he didn't arrange the explosive. He was only responsible for pulling the fuse to ignite it, so he couldn't see anything at all.
Han Xin’s next words solved the Zhu family’s doubts:
"I cut off part of the fuse."
"Ah?" Liu Ji was stunned and asked subconsciously, "Why did you think of cutting my fuse?"
Judging from the process, it was Liu Jixian who started to set up the fuse, and when he was almost busy, Han Xin went to rescue Zhang Han.
If he wants to cut the fuse, he can only do it before going to save people, otherwise it may be too late.
No one dared to stay in the tunnel longer when the explosives could explode at any time.
Han Xin shrugged, "I'm just afraid that if I don't climb fast enough, I'll be scorched before I get out of the secret passage."
Of course that's not the case, but it's not complicated either.
Just be a prepared backup plan.
Anyway, what should be blown up can always be blown up, and what can't be blown up can't be blown up. It doesn't matter if there are more or less explosives.
After answering, Han Xin walked towards Zhang Han, intending to see how he was doing.
When the Zhu family saw that his back was facing them, they thought they could not let go of this opportunity. They flipped the fingers in their hands and half-heartedly tapped Han Xin on the spot with his acupuncture hand.
Han Xin was just about to move his legs at this moment, and his frozen posture looked quite funny, especially when combined with his eyeballs swaying from side to side.
When Long Qie saw this, he hurriedly asked, "Why did Hall Master Zhu suddenly attack him?"
"He is an undercover agent sent by the empire to the farm." The Zhu family explained their behavior.
I didn't take action before because I didn't know Han Xin's strength and couldn't act rashly. I just seized the good opportunity and couldn't miss it.
Of course, it was just to control the person first and not intend to harm Han Xin.
The Zhu family does not object to cooperation with people from the empire, but they know almost nothing about Han Xin.
This is very bad.
………………
On the mountain ridge, Wang Li was stunned when he heard what Tian Yan said. After regaining consciousness, he immediately asked:
"what are you saying?"
"I hope the general will stop attacking." Tian Yan repeated it sincerely.
Wang Li laughed angrily now, "Ha! It seems you really treat me as a fool."
"My army is surrounding the mountain, you want me to withdraw!?"
It should be emphasized here that the main purpose of Ying Zheng's transfer to Wang Li in Daze Mountain was to ensure that the Yinghuo Stone was safely delivered to Xianyang. He did not explicitly order the armor-piercing soldiers to destroy the farmers.
It was just the farmer's behavior of robbing the Yinghuo Stone that gave Wang Li a legitimate reason to start a war.
He could fight, or he could just steal back the Stone of Fire, both of which would make a difference in Xianyang.
However, as an imperial soldier, it is of course impossible to refuse the military merits that are offered to you - therefore, the elimination of peasant families is regarded as the emperor's will, because Ying Zheng must be very aware of the urinary nature of these generals under his command.
Tian Yan explained, "I have already taken control of the farmhouse. If the general launches an attack now, it will be equivalent to reducing the power of the snare."
"The power of the net?" Wang Li blinked, smacked his lips and replied, "What does it have to do with me?"
"Besides, if a farmer's family has a hundred thousand disciples, can a snare swallow them up?"
Then Wang Li patted his chest and changed the subject, "Of course, we are all colleagues in the empire, and I won't do everything right."
"I will definitely give you no less than what should be left to the snare. I am not an unloyal person."
Tian Yan smiled when he heard this and responded, "I want to remind the general that doing this is tantamount to going against the snare."
"Ha!" Wang Li opened his mouth, wanting to curse.
Am I against the net?
You, an unknown person, are causing trouble for me. Who the hell is going against Luo Sheng?
But these words could not be uttered. Wang Li could only hold it back and sneered back, "You threaten me? Zhao Gao is just standing here and saying this!"
With Wang Li's family background, there was only one person in the entire imperial officialdom who could make him give in, and that person was Gu Xun.
Other than that, he really doesn't have to be afraid of anyone, not even Meng Tian, not even Li Si, not even Zhao Gao. It can be said that he is so awesome that he doesn't need friends.
Tian Yan responded with a smile, "I'm just reminding the general."
"According to your statement, my large army mobilized and came all the way here just to beat the drum for you, to scare those farmers and ordinary people, and then let you harvest the results easily?"
Wang Li questioned Tian Yan while approaching her step by step.
After getting closer, he looked down at Tian Yan with a sense of oppression.
Although the latter is very tall, he is still not enough to face Wang Li, a tall and rough guy.
Tian Yan responded calmly, "First of all, we are not relaxed."
"Secondly, the snare method is indeed more efficient and more beneficial to the empire."
"Hmph!" Wang Li snorted coldly, pinched his waist with one hand and said disdainfully, "So, this general and the 30,000 armor-piercing soldiers are here to serve as foils for you?"
"This is cooperation, General." Tian Yan emphasized with a smile.
"Collaboration? Collaboration is shit!" Wang Li rolled his eyes, waved his hand, and said in a rude voice, "You're done, I should go back empty-handed!"
It was impossible for him to let go of the farmer, let alone Tian Yan, a fake person who came to tell him, and Zhao Gao came to beg him personally.
Tian Yan quickly responded, "Luo Wang can hand over Zhang Han to you."
Wang Li was stunned for a moment, then quickly calmed down, showed an angry face, and replied angrily, "Zhang Han led the secret guards to track down the trap everywhere, why do you mean to leave it to me?"
"Obviously I'm the one who wiped your butts for you!"
Tian Yan still smiled and corrected himself, "It was Lord Zhanri of Luowang who took action to deal with him."
"That's also the opportunity I gave you. It's the favor you owe me!" Wang Li retorted excitedly.
Actually, he wasn't very excited, but he had to perform well.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Tian Yan was indifferent to this and responded calmly, "The net will naturally pay off, for example... the land in Northern Xinjiang that the general is most concerned about."
Looking at the pretty smiling face in front of him, Wang Li looked calm on the surface, but a huge wave surged in his heart.
What happened to this woman?
How long has she been replacing Miao Lu?
Why did she get all the information about the Northland?
The farmer definitely didn't have any information about the Northland, so in his opinion, Tian Yan's source of information could only be the snare.
But... Wang Li didn't understand how Tian Yan did it.
Even if she takes over the identity of Shu Lu, she shouldn't dare to negotiate too much with Luo Wang's internal staff, right?
Even if she dares, the people who are snaring the trap shouldn't be fooled casually, right?
Wang Li can only be sure of one thing now - Luo Wang's plan in Dongjun has gone very wrong.
And more importantly, he is now not sure what kind of deviation it is, and he is not sure how to treat Tian Yan.
………………
Daze Mountain, inside Zuimenglou.
The sun has disappeared, and the fire is raging, making it difficult to find anyone. Naturally, what Genie and others have to consider now is to retreat.
Although the environment is terrible, with the celebration going on, this is a minor problem.
Just when the whole building was about to collapse, Dianqing grabbed Gai Nieweizhuang, but the two of them did not resist, allowing Dianqing to hold them between themselves and cover their heads and rush outside.
At this moment, the building that was about to collapse suddenly stopped. Although it was not motionless, it obviously gave them more time.
Dianqing was stunned for a moment, but without thinking much, he charged directly against the burning building, crashed out of Zuimeng Building with a pile of burning building debris, and rushed out of the fire scene.
After coming out, he also knew what happened just now.
It turned out that the leader of the Renzong, Xiaoyaozi, arrived at this moment and used his majestic energy to forcibly stabilize the building that was about to collapse.
Seeing Dianqing rushing out with Gai Nie Weizhuang, Xiaoyaozi immediately stopped using his skills. The golden runes that restrained the entire building suddenly collapsed and dissipated. The entire building collapsed, setting off a wave of fire that passed over everyone.
