Chapter 2505: View from afar (two chapters in one)
"There are too many people here, so we can't move forward." Lin Fei said.
"I originally thought I could go to the performance site, but now it seems I have no choice," Zhou Yue said.
"Let's go see a movie! At this time, there shouldn't be many people in the cinema." Wang Xiaoru suggested.
Lin Fei and Zhou Yue nodded, then the three of them turned and left.
Because there were many people behind me, it was not smooth when I left, and it took me a while to leave.
After emerging from the crowd, the three people walked to a nearby movie theater.
There are several movie theaters in this busy commercial district.
I chose the nearest movie theater. After arriving at my destination, there were really not many people in the movie theater as Wang Xiaoru said.
Thinking about it, in fact, it is still eating time and many people have not finished their meals. After the meal is finished, the number of people in the cinema will gradually increase.
"What movie do you want to watch?" Lin Fei asked.
"Just watch that movie that just came out!" Zhou Yue said.
Wang Xiaoru nodded, because he had no objection, so he would go and watch the newly released movie as Zhou Yue said.
After buying the tickets, I bought some popcorn and juice, and waited in the lobby for a while. It was time to show the movie, and then the three of them walked into the screening room without queuing.
Only one-third of the seats in the spacious screening hall are occupied. At this time, it is okay if you don't choose your own seat.
However, the seats chosen by Lin Fei and the others were quite good when they purchased their tickets, so there was no need to change seats.
The lights in the screening room went out and the movie started playing on the screen.
Lin Fei was eating popcorn and his eyes fell on the screen. At this time, he felt someone tapping his shoulder, so he turned his head and looked.
"Um?"
Zhou Yue put her head next to Lin Fei's ear and whispered, "After watching the movie later, let's go to the mall and buy some clothes."
A faint fragrance lingered at the tip of his nose and his ears felt a little itchy. Lin Fei moved his head and nodded to Zhou Yue.
"Can."
On the other side, Wang Xiaoru took a sip of juice and saw two people whispering. Her eyes flickered for a few times, and then she asked, "What are you talking about?"
"Zhou Yue said that after watching the movie, he would go to the mall to buy clothes." Lin Fei explained.
"It just so happens that I also want to buy clothes, and I remember that there is a newly opened clothing store nearby. After watching the movie later, we will go there to hang out." Wang Xiaoru said with a smile.
While they were chatting, the movie on the screen had officially started. The three people stopped talking and focused on the movie.
…………
Spiritual world, Zecheng.
After nightfall, the streets are very lively. Since soldiers have not been arresting rebels recently, ordinary people are no longer affected. Now there are more and more lively neighborhoods.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was wandering on the street after dinner. At this time, he was holding some fresh fruits in his hand. Every time he took a bite, the sweet juice would burst into his mouth.
"I didn't expect this place to be so lively. It's on par with the street where I live in the inn..."
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the busy street and sighed.
When wandering around, he often cast his eyes on some remote alleys.
In the past, when soldiers were arresting rebels in the city, these alleys were often manned.
Now, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead finished his dinner and walked around the restaurant for a while, but did not find any soldiers in some remote corners.
What the big man thinks next, no one can guess now.
But one thing is certain, if we are holding our ground for now, there will definitely be big moves next.
All the forces in the city are patiently waiting for the moment when the big shots take action. Ordinary residents don't think about these things. Now the city is very peaceful, which is what ordinary residents are most happy to see.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead was shopping on the street. Time passed quickly, the night gradually became darker, and the number of passers-by on the street began to decrease.
"Where are you going, sir?" The coachman was about to go home when he suddenly saw a guest approaching. He thought about finishing the last business before going back.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead told the coachman the address of the inn, and then got into the carriage.
At this time, a pair of soldiers appeared on the street. The coachman saw that the soldiers did not start the carriage, but waited for these soldiers to pass by before setting off.
The footsteps of the soldiers were dense but not urgent. They were probably not in a hurry.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked at the soldiers through the window and found that these soldiers were carrying some long-range weapons.
Seeing this scene, he thought for a while and then got off the carriage.
"Guest officer?"
The soldiers walked away, and the coachman shouted in confusion when he saw the guests getting off the carriage.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead took out some money from his pocket and handed it to the coachman, and then said apologetically.
"I'm sorry, I suddenly remembered that there are some things I haven't dealt with."
The coachman was a very honest man. When he saw that the guest would not take the ride but instead paid the fare, he quickly declined.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead did not take back the money and turned around to leave. Seeing this, the coachman raised his hand and scratched his head, then silently accepted the money.
"drive."
The coachman's voice sounded behind him, and he didn't have to look back to know that the coachman shook the reins and drove the carriage away.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stepped forward, his feet moving faster and faster.
He walked into an alley and jumped up onto the roof of a house.
Standing high and looking far away, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead looked into the distance. Under the illumination of the moonlight, he could clearly see the soldiers who were quickly retreating.
The reason why he got off the carriage and did not return to the inn was because he found that these soldiers were carrying long-range weapons.
Under normal circumstances, patrol soldiers will not carry long-range weapons unless they are performing certain special tasks, such as arresting some dangerous gangsters.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, guessed that these soldiers might have gone to capture rebels and wanted to follow them to see if this was the case.
Of course, with such a group of soldiers carrying long-range weapons, there is still little hope of catching the rebels.
However, I don’t know if there are similar groups of soldiers appearing in other directions. If there are, once the number of people increases, the probability of success will be greatly increased.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead saw the soldiers disappearing at the end of the street. He immediately used his feet and jumped to the roof of another house.
Jumping quickly, in the night, someone occasionally noticed a figure flashing quickly on the roof. They thought it was dazzled. They rubbed their eyes and checked again, but there was no figure.
…………
In a residential area in Zecheng, as the night grew darker and darker, the residents living here turned off their lights and went to bed.
In an old house, a gloomy figure sat at the table, wiping the weapon in his hand.
Although the atmosphere in the city has become much more relaxed in the past few days, and the residents live and work in peace and contentment, the rebels feel an invisible pressure acting on them, and it becomes increasingly breathless.
"Those lords' minions are closing in on us step by step. If things continue like this, they will discover where we are hiding. We need to take action early." The rebels muttered to themselves while wiping the weapons in their hands.
The current situation is not good for them, but there is no good opportunity to take action for the time being, so it is quite confusing.
The surrounding neighbors turned off their lights and the street became quiet.
Suddenly, footsteps appeared at the end of the street, and soon many figures appeared.
"Tap tap tap..."
The footsteps are getting denser and denser, and if you look carefully, you will find that there are many soldiers appearing.
"Act as planned." The soldier captain stopped, and his men behind him also stopped. Then he made a few gestures and whispered to everyone to be careful.
"Yes." The soldier responded in a low voice, and then quickly dispersed.
The same scene happened in many directions, and the sleeping residents did not know that many soldiers were coming outside.
On the roof of a house far away from the scene of the incident, the pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood quietly on the roof, watching what happened in the distance.
He followed along and saw more and more soldiers gathering, and knew that his guess was right.
Based on experience, he found that these soldiers acted very cautiously and did not cause unnecessary consequences. They had obviously been trained before performing this task.
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead felt that he could get closer, so he jumped up and jumped to the roof of another house.
A few jumps closed a large distance. At this time, the soldiers in front also made some movements.
"call out."
A golden stream of light flew into the sky and exploded in the night.
The loud sound spreads around and can be heard by people in a large area.
"What's wrong?"
"Why are there explosions outside?"
The sleeping residents were awakened. They opened their windows or doors to look at the location of the sound, and suddenly saw a bright golden firework appearing in the sky.
"Everyone, please leave quickly." A loud voice sounded immediately, reaching the ears of every waking resident in the streets and alleys.
Upon hearing the soldiers' shouting, the sleepy-eyed residents were stunned for a few seconds, then quickly reacted, quickly packed up their valuables at home and left.
The originally quiet neighborhood became noisy, and many residents could be seen dragging their families and families to evacuate to safe places.
The soldiers performing the mission also took this aspect into consideration and guided the panicked residents to leave.
The pig-headed captain, who had a brown birthmark on his forehead, hid in the dark and observed this scene, and praised the soldiers' operations very much.
"The big man's arrangements are really thoughtful, and these soldiers are really good at executing orders so accurately."
The residents who woke up quickly left under the guidance of the soldiers, and soon the noisy neighborhood became quiet.
As the residents left, the doors of the houses were all open, except for one old house, the door was still closed, and there was no movement at all.
Several soldier captains with powerful psychic fluctuations coming from their bodies arrived at their destination and stared at the closed house with burning eyes.
"call……"
A gust of wind blew up on the street, blowing on the soldiers and giving them a slight chill.
Everyone looked towards the place where the rebels were hiding, clenching their weapons, ready to prepare for the enemy's reaction.
"The rebel hasn't come out yet. Next, it's time to strike with long-range weapons!"
The pig-headed captain with a brown birthmark on his forehead stood in the dark watching the battle. Seeing that the soldiers had not moved, he thought to himself.
The next second, he saw a soldier captain raising his hand.
Immediately afterwards, some soldiers holding long-range weapons stood up.
"put."
The soldier captain shouted, and as he waved his hand forward, the soldier holding a long-range weapon immediately activated the weapon in his hand.
"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."
The arrows shot out, and streams of golden light gathered in mid-air.
Then it drew a parabola and flew towards the house where the rebels were hiding at extremely fast speeds.
"Boom, boom, boom..."
The old house was instantly submerged in billowing smoke as if it had been bombarded by artillery.
The long-range attack was not just a wave. The soldier captain issued orders one after another to carry out several strikes on the house where the insurgents were hiding.
Although they have to be captured alive, the rebels are very dangerous, and even if they are knocked down by several waves of long-range attacks, they will not be killed directly.
When the remote attack ended, the scene became quiet again.
Rolling smoke and dust enveloped a small area, but every soldier still looked serious.
"Good means."
"How did you find me? Can you tell me?"
A steady voice broke the silence. Every soldier present clenched the weapons in their hands. Some of the weaker soldiers had a lot of sweat on their nervous palms.
"Let's capture him without mercy!" The soldier captain did not tell the rebels how to find him, but instead asked him to surrender.
"Hahaha..." A burst of arrogant laughter came from the smoke.
"You minions of the lord are really ridiculous."
The soldier captain raised his hand again, preparing for his men to launch several more long-range attacks on the rebels.
"put."
Following the order, arrows pierced the air one after another, densely covering the smoke-filled area like raindrops.
"drink."
This time the rebels did not stand and be beaten. The soldiers present only heard a loud roar, and then a golden sword flew out of the smoke.
"boom."
The dense arrows collided with the sword light, causing an earth-shattering explosion.
The shock wave generated by the explosion spread to all directions. Some surrounding houses were affected and shook violently. Some houses with weak overall structures had many cracks.
"Let go." Seeing that a wave of long-range attacks had been blocked, the soldier captain ordered again.
However, the rebels did not intend to give the other side a chance to strike again this time.
