Chapter 401 The chess game begins! Just like his father!
The city lord's eyes flashed and he sneered: "They want to leave the city gate, obviously to give Qin Wenyuan a chance to escape. As our number one enemy in Nanzhao, Qin Wenyuan, if he lets Qin Wenyuan go, he will be the sinner of our Nanzhao!"
"He is a traitor to me, Nanzhao!"
"So, I will never let them go!"
"Xiaguan will explain the truth to them clearly. If there are still people who want to leave the city, then Xianguan can only shed tears and shed swords for Nanzhao and for the sake of his family and country!"
The Soul Controller smiled and said, "Isn't that enough?"
"Isn't it simple?"
The city lord smiled and nodded: "It is indeed very simple."
"okay."
The corners of Yuhunshi's mouth raised slightly and he said: "Then I'll leave this matter to you. Remember, you must persist to the end of the day!"
"After one day, you don't have to worry about anything."
"after one day……"
With a profound smile, he said: "Everything will end!"
The Soul Controller, wearing a black robe and a hood, strode out of the city lord's mansion.
After leaving the city lord's palace, he directly climbed on the horse, rode a fast horse, and led the soul envoys to gallop on the street.
They bypassed the crowds and made several turns before stopping in front of an ordinary-looking mansion.
Yuhunshi turned over and dismounted and said: "You guys wait for me here."
After saying that, he went directly into this seemingly ordinary mansion.
Passing through the front yard, you arrive at a garden.
This garden is very large, and there is an artificial lake in the garden.
At this time, there were several red carps swimming in the lake, and a man wearing a straw hat was sitting there holding a fishing rod.
When the Yuhun envoy saw this person, he walked quickly, got behind him, and bowed respectfully: "Beichen."
The man wearing the hat didn't even raise his eyelids. He looked at the carp in the lake calmly and said calmly: "Is it solved?"
The Soul Controller nodded hurriedly: "It's been solved."
"The city lord of Taihe City has obviously been affected by those rumors. His mentality is very unstable. He also wants to test us."
"But his method was too clumsy, and his subordinates could see through it at a glance."
"Afterwards, my subordinates fooled him a few words and calmed him down."
"Next, he will delay us for one day at all costs. During this day, he promises not to let any people leave."
Beichen nodded slightly, the coir raincoat hat blocked the sunlight, hiding his face in the shadows.
He looked at the carp lingering near the hook in the lake, his hands motionless and very steady.
"Then don't worry about them for now."
"Qin Wenyuan deliberately spread these messages in order to let the people break open the city gate. Once the people leave, there are so many people, and he can hide them perfectly, making it difficult for us to find him again."
"So, as long as we guard the city gate tightly and don't give those people a chance, he won't be able to escape."
The Soul Controller frowned and said: "When I came back, I found that the people outside were very excited and the commotion was quite big. Can the city lord hold on?"
"Do not worry."
Beichen said calmly: "No matter what, this Taihe City is also his territory. He has ruled these people for many years, and it is impossible for him to do so without any means."
"He knows better than us how to deal with these people."
"As long as Qin Wenyuan has no other means, these people will not be able to achieve anything."
The Soul Controller nodded thoughtfully.
He said: "Qin Wenyuan...does he have any other means?"
Beichen laughed: "Who knows."
"Although he is completely under threat from us now, he can stir up such a storm and almost miss our important event. Who knows if he has other means?"
"But no matter whether he has any other means, we still have to do what we do!"
"Now, we are competing with him to see who is faster."
"Even if he has other means, as long as he is later than us, the result will not change."
At this time, the fishing rod suddenly started to move.
The fishing line suddenly stretched straight.
Beichen directly picked up the fishing rod.
In an instant, a red carp was caught.
Beichen put away the fishing rod, threw the carp into the fish basket, and smiled: "It seems that this time, luck may be more in our favor."
He said: "How long will it take for the dam to collapse?"
The Soul Controller said: "No more than twelve hours at most."
Beichen nodded slightly, stood up, threw the fish basket to the Soul Controller, and said, "Tell the kitchen to stew it."
"After eating the fish, let's leave. This Taihe City will live in the water forever like the fish in these lakes."
After saying that, he walked out.
A strand of white hair slowly fluttered in the wind from under his bamboo hat.
Inn, inside the room.
There was a knock on Qin Wenyuan's door.
Qin Wenyuan opened the door and saw Tianji standing outside.
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said: "Is there any new news?"
Tianji nodded directly.
He turned sideways and let Tianji walk in.
This time, Qin Wenyuan and Tianji were not as cautious as before.
Even if they found someone opening the door a crack and looking at them curiously, they didn't care.
Qin Wenyuan had already guessed that Beichen was going to massacre the city directly.
So in this case, Beichen would definitely find a way to take people away early, and then massacre the city in a way that could absolutely wipe out Taihe City.
Therefore, at this time, no one pays attention to them anymore.
They don't need to worry about anything anymore.
No one cares about this little fuss over details anymore.
Tianji entered the room and said directly: "The city lord of Taihe City got angry and ordered people to guard the city gate with swords."
"And he also directly issued a notice saying that if we were hiding in Taihe City, we would be the biggest and most dangerous enemy to Nanzhao. And now, once the door is opened, we will take the opportunity to escape. Once we escape, we will
It will be Nanzhao’s biggest crisis!”
"So, the city gate must not be opened now, and anyone who wants to open the city gate will now be considered our accomplice and will be killed directly!"
"Therefore, those people were frightened. Although they gathered in front of the city gate, no one dared to rush into the city lord's palace at this time."
"Moreover, the City Lord's Mansion has accumulated prestige for many years and has a great power to intimidate the people. Therefore, after these words were spoken in the City Lord's Mansion, the people did not dare to disobey at all."
She looked at Qin Wenyuan and said solemnly: "The city gate cannot be broken through."
Hearing this, Sishe looked at Qin Wenyuan nervously.
Qin Wenyuan, however, was still shaking the teacup slowly. He glanced at the tea leaves flipping up and down in the teacup and took a sip.
Then he said calmly: "It's really cruel."
"In order to prevent the people from leaving, you can even say such things."
"Directly asking the people to leave the city is tantamount to colluding with us and tantamount to treason."
"They are so shameless. They are really good at substituting ideas and substituting concepts."
Tianji said: "Whether they are shameless or not, it will be difficult for us to leave."
Si She said: "Master, what should we do?"
Qin Wenyuan gently put down the tea cup and made a crisp sound.
He looked at the two people and said: "The main reason why they can scare the people and prevent them from leaving is that they have reasons for the people to be afraid."
"However, this is not the main reason. The main reason... is that now the people have only heard the rumors, but they have not yet truly felt the danger of massacre."
"So, they are still not sure whether the rumor will actually come true."
"If the rumors come true, then even if the people from the City Lord's Mansion block the city gate, they will break it open!"
"They will all die anyway. If they rush out of the city, they may survive, but if they stay in the city, they will definitely die!"
"so……"
Qin Wenyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, half-smiling but not smiling: "If it were you, how would you choose?"
The two looked at each other.
You look at me, and I look at you.
Tianji said: "If the people can really feel the danger and pressure, then the people will naturally not listen to the city lord's mansion anymore."
"I think maybe those people in the City Lord's Mansion are kept in the dark now."
"But how can we make them truly feel the possibility of massacre?"
"My people have tried their best to incite the people, but they have not caused substantial panic to the people, and they still cannot give them the courage to confront the city lord's palace."
Qin Wenyuan smiled: "You really have no choice."
"But, this doesn't mean that I can't do anything."
"And what you just said is right. The people in the City Lord's Mansion are very likely to be kept in the dark. Maybe they don't know it now, and they will also be abandoned by Beichen."
"So, if they also feel the danger and pressure, then maybe... they will escape faster than the common people."
"Therefore, as long as we give them real pressure to massacre the city, that will be enough."
Qin Wenyuan looked at Si She, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and said, "Si She, tell our people that it's time to activate them."
"Let them... do it."
When Sishe heard Qin Wenyuan's words, her eyes suddenly lit up.
He said with some excitement: "Master, are you finally going to use them?"
Qin Wenyuan nodded with a smile and said: "In the future, Taihe City may not exist anymore, so there is no point in hiding it anymore."
"Use them, let them exert their last enthusiasm, and then return to their homeland!"
"It's hard work for them to hide in a foreign country anonymously. It's time for them to go home."
Sishe hurriedly said excitedly: "Yes, I'll do it right away!"
With that said, Sishe left quickly.
Now there is no one guarding the inn, and the people from the city lord's palace have been called away to maintain order.
There was a mess outside now, and the guests in the inn also ran out nervously to check the situation.
So now that I am a snake, I can just walk away.
In this chaotic situation, no one pays attention to them.
After Si She left, Tianji couldn't help but look at Qin Wenyuan and asked: "The person you are hiding...is the Shadow Guard of the Tang Dynasty?"
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said, "What do you think?"
Tianji frowned: "How many shadow guards do you have?"
Qin Wenyuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'm not as big as you."
"We, Datang, have to plan in various places, and we need our people in every place, so the number of people we assign to each place is also limited."
"Compared to your dozens or hundreds, the number of people is much worse."
Tianji frowned: "What can such a small number of people do?"
"Now the City Lord's Mansion has completely frightened the people. It is not easy for the people to break through the city gate at this level, despite being accused of being traitors and risking being killed on the spot by the City Lord's Mansion.
matter."
Qin Wenyuan smiled and said: "In this world, it is not easy to get things done when there are many people."
"There are many things that have nothing to do with how many people there are."
"Just like what happened in Taihe City, your people are much more than mine, but aren't they also powerless in the face of this situation?"
"And even if I have a few people, it may not be impossible..."
He suddenly stood up, stood in front of the window, and looked outside.
It's still so lively and noisy outside.
He raised his head and looked at the sky, which was blue.
The sky is clear and blue.
What a nice weather.
But such weather gave Lu Qing a dull feeling before a storm.
He suddenly smiled and said: "Tianji, do you think Beichen will be furious when he discovers his plan and is destroyed by me?"
Tianji didn't reply.
Qin Wenyuan didn't care either.
He looked in the direction of the city gate and said slowly: "Just wait, the show will start soon."
"This game of chess has come to an end."
"Who loses and who wins depends on this moment."
…………
At this time.
The door of that ordinary mansion was suddenly opened.
Beichen, who was wearing a bamboo hat and still wearing the same coarse linen clothes, looked like a fisherman.
Surrounded by the Soul Controller and others, he walked out slowly.
This place is sparsely populated, so there are not many pedestrians on the road...
The Yuhun Envoy said: "Those people blocked both city gates. If we want to leave, we can only leave through the secret passage."
Beichen nodded slightly.
He said: "The lord of Taihe City doesn't know about the secret passage, right?"
The Yuhun Envoy nodded: "This secret passage was built secretly by our Beidou Club. No one knows about it except the upper echelons of the Beidou Club. This city lord... his status is far from enough. He has no idea that there is someone in Taihe City."
A secret passage leading directly outside."
Beichen nodded.
He stopped and listened to the sounds from the direction of the city gate.
The noisy and noisy sounds can be heard very clearly.
Beichen laughed: "This Qin Wenyuan is really cunning."
"I didn't expect that he could judge my plan in such a short period of time, and also made such a response. He is worthy of being his son."
"Just like his father, very cunning!"
The Soul Controller was a little surprised when he heard this and said: "His son? Who is he that Beichen said?"
Beichen shook his head and said calmly: "He is dead, there is nothing more to say."
"However, Qin Wenyuan will go to accompany him soon, and he will not be alone."
