Qian Xiu's face was expressionless, and his tone was so ordinary that it was irritating: "What does that have to do with you?"
Song Yu was choked. He rubbed his temples and felt a little dazed for a moment. Later, he realized that he seemed to be angry just now.
And as Qian Xiu said, the things here have nothing to do with the Song Dynasty in a sense. Even if he cannot exit the game temporarily due to a bug, it is very simple for him to leave Yongxi State. I am afraid that in this world
Nothing can restrain him.
Because of these words, Song Yu temporarily pulled away. But soon, he brought his thoughts back: "I am the judge of the Peace Department of Yongxi Prefecture, just like you used to be. But I don't
Would you choose to betray Yongxi State, or even betray the entire human race, like you?"
Qian Xiu's face was still expressionless, but his eyes narrowed slightly: "I don't think I am colluding with the White Walkers, nor do I think I have done anything wrong. But I don't force you to think the same way as me. Qinian
, you came here specifically to see me, is Yongxi Prefecture already in danger?"
Zhou Qinian's palm was still on Qian Xiu's head. He couldn't see Qian Xiu's expression, but after a brief silence, he still responded: "Yes."
So Qian Xiu finally showed his first expression. He smiled lightly, looking like an elder who had a distant temperament, but could always give guidance to the younger generation when they were confused. However, this smile fell.
In Song Yu's eyes, it was terrifying.
Qian Xiu stood up slowly. This caused Zhou Qinian's hand to leave his head. But Qian Xiu didn't seem to care at all. Instead, he picked up the oil drum on the side and added spoonfuls to the ever-burning lamp in the worship hall.
kerosene.
The scene is as peaceful and beautiful as a painting.
Song Yu felt that this person was really contradictory.
Outside the city, the city guards, the Security Department, even Xie Nanshi, Du Anchen, and the monks passing by were all risking their lives to fight, just to protect the peace here. Not to mention that the instigator was at least Qian Xiu, the main culprit, why was he so calm?
, full of humility?
He stopped in front of Qian Xiu: "I want to know what means you have to ignore the city defense formation. You can choose to delay, and then I may do some inhumane things in order to get the answer."
The light in Qian Xiu's eyes finally focused on Song Yu, with pure curiosity: "Why do you think your torture can be more torturous than the Seal of Peace?"
I have to admit that what Qian Xiu said makes sense.
Song Yu opened his mouth. Zhou Qinian thought he had been choked, frowned and stepped forward to take over the interrogation.
Unexpectedly, Song Yu relaxed completely, his eyes were very bright, and there was even a hint of color on the corners of his eyes and eyebrows, and he said with unusual certainty: "Sure enough, something is wrong with you! I knew it! I knew it! You must still be there
There is a back-up plan that we don’t know about!”
"If you are really just colluding with the White Walkers, then before the news of our arrest of Liu Huaijun spreads throughout the Department of Security, what you should do is to immediately pack up and run away, leave Yongxi Prefecture, and go to the White Walkers. After all, you have
You are an important member of the Security Department, and you can definitely play a vital role in the attack on Yongxi Prefecture! But you stayed, no, it should be said that you threw yourself into a trap!"
After talking about it, Song Yu smoothed over the weird and stuck things that he originally thought: "I really misjudged you for a while, thinking that you were really just pedantic, just because of that piece of 'sage's residual clothes' that was threatened by Liu Huaijun.
.Only now am I convinced that you must have a purpose for staying."
Qian Xiu ignored him and thought about continuing to add lamp oil to the memorial tablets in the worship hall.
Song Yu made a wrong move and still blocked Qian Xiu's path. His eyes were fixed on Qian Xiu's face, hoping to see some reaction in any of his movements.
It's a pity that Qian Xiu didn't respond.
Unable to make any progress, Song Yu turned to look at Zhou Qinian: "Master Zhou, do you have any way to make him speak?"
Zhou Qinian was silent. He knew Qian Xiu better than Song Yu, and knew that this person had a tough character. He would not frown even if the Ping An Seal was applied to him. Ordinary torture methods were simply ineffective. Qian Xiu also lived a simple life on weekdays, let alone
He is a nephew, and there is not even a servant in the family. And this ascetic-like life does not give Qian Xiu any weaknesses.
Song Yu understood it and felt a little disappointed, but it was also expected: "I have finished what I want to say."
When the two left the worship hall, the sky was gray. It was as if an invisible dark cloud was weighing heavily on the hearts of Yongxi Zhoushang and everyone else.
At this moment, the almost loud noise in the outer city suddenly became quiet, and many ordinary people shouted in unison.
Song Yu didn't know why. Zhou Qinian looked at the sky steadily for a while, and his tense breath suddenly relaxed: "It's because the formation has been activated."
Song Yu was a little surprised: "So fast?"
Song Yu was not surprised by the timing of the activation of the formation. Since early in the morning, the city was crackling like the Chinese New Year. It was obvious that the formation had not yet been maintained and was relatively fragile. If it was not reactivated, the city might be destroyed in advance.
But, everyone was drunk last night. When did the seal of the Secretary of Peace and the seal of the state leader in the hand of the Taoist priest become one?
Zhou Qinian grinned and showed an extremely stiff expression: "With this formation, even if we don't leave the city and there are no reinforcements from other state capitals, we can hold on for a year and a half."
"Yes. What's more, we still have so many people going out to kill the White Walkers." Song Yu said casually, even a little envious of those who could go out of the city to level up.
But...this is just the best case scenario.
Qian Xiu, or rather the White Walker's back move, was just like the invisible dark cloud before, always shrouding Song Yu's eyes.
…
Taoist priest Sui was helped down from the tower. Qi Rong's eyes were filled with tears, which showed that he was out of breath from crying. But when he saw Taoist Sui, Qi Rong's face became tense again.
, pretending to be strong: "Grandpa, how do you feel?"
At this time, Taoist Master Sui's face was pale, and he was as weak as if his bones had been removed. Although he was a lot older, due to his extremely high cultivation level, he looked at best not young in the past. But now
He is really a bit old.
The cost of activating the formation was greater than expected. In addition to cultivation, life span was also consumed. But Taoist Sui had no regrets about it. He even managed to smile at Qi Rong. Then, he
He saw Jie Nanshi standing aside and Song Yu coming in a hurry.
The Taoist priest's eyes wandered due to exhaustion and fell on Jie Nanshi. There were many indescribable emotions in his eyes. However, perhaps because he was concerned that there were too many people present, he did not speak.
Xie Nanshi looked at Taoist Sui. He was not holding a sword, but there was the sound of swords all around him in response. He understood what Zui Taoist had not said. Although Taoist Sui did not go to the front line in this battle, in the end
Live up to the reputation of Jiange.
Jie Nanshi looked through the desolate night and looked at the densely packed strange beasts hidden in the dark night outside the city: "Rest assured. I will be with you in this battle."
The casual Taoist priest closed his eyes slightly, hiding the complexity and relief in his eyes, and followed the city to a resting place not far away to meditate and adjust his breath.
Song Yu walked up to Jie Nanshi who looked solemn, reached out and patted his shoulder: "Is the medicine enough?"
"enough."
Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and said rather novelly: "I thought you would stay outside the city until the medicine I gave you is used up..."
"I'm tired." Before Song Yu could finish his words, he was cut off by Jie Nanshi.
This is not an excuse. Song Yu's medicines are very magical. In Song Yu's words, those medicines can instantly replenish his physical strength and energy. But Xie Nanshi has been fighting outside the city for about an hour, and he died in this hour.
There are countless strange beasts under his Taoist skills, and there are also fewer and fewer around him.
It seems that there is only killing between heaven and earth, and the air of blood is spreading all around. There is no way forward, let alone the way back.
The elixir can replenish qi, blood, and nourish the mind, but the fatigue that comes from the depths of the soul cannot be replenished by medicine.
Song Yu was stunned for a moment, and then quickly remembered this. He didn't pay much attention to it in the past. After all, there were very few times when he needed to concentrate on killing monsters for two hours without taking a break. But now it seems that it matters.
In addition to these two important values in combat, there is at least one other value, which cannot be replenished by medicine.
Xie Nanshi suddenly curled up his lips. He traveled all over the country, killing countless strange ghosts and beasts under his sword and talismans. He feels tired today. In addition to being tired, he also has the impact he has received during this period.
In the early years, he was driven by his belief in killing the White Walkers. In just a few months, he seemed to understand a lot more about human nature, but his sense of isolation from the world seemed to have become a lot heavier.
Forget it, thinking too much is not conducive to the swordsmanship in hand, and it is also sorry for the casual Taoist priest who consumes his life force to drive the formation. Thinking like this, Xie Nanshi walked out of the city gate again, his figure even looked a little desolate in the night.
Song Yu conveniently took Nanshi's arm and said, "You have been killing for a long time, but there is nothing missing outside. It can be seen that under the tide of beasts and ghosts, the refresh frequency of wild monsters must have changed. You go to sleep first, no
We are in a hurry during these two hours. And you should take advantage of the time when the formation is at its strongest, and arrange a shift together to maximize the efficiency of spawning monsters..."
Xie Nanshi originally wanted to explain that his tiredness came more from the vibration of his mind, and as long as his Taoist heart was firm, it would not have much impact. But when he heard Song Yu's next words, his expression was startled, and he thought for a moment before saying: "These
The strange ghosts and beasts seem to have the same goal, and they do not compete with each other like we saw on Yuanao Mountain before. The method you described may not be easy to achieve."
Song Yu didn't think there was any problem. Whenever monsters were spawned, there would always be some convenient output methods. Otherwise, with limited manpower and unlimited monster spawns, sooner or later a few of them would be exhausted: "Finding rules and methods will definitely solve the current situation."
Of course, the most important thing is, since you can't kill them all, don't waste your energy. Song Yu let go of Nanshi's arm, bumped the opponent's with his shoulder, and put on the careless smile again on his face, but what he said
But he said loudly: "This battle will be fought by us."
Xie Nanshi did not leave the city again, but chose to stay with Song Yu. Perhaps he chose to stay and help Song Yu when he was in Qinghe Town because he had been looking forward to how much change this person would bring to the world.
The collision of alien beasts and ghosts against each other is still there, but the shock to the capital of Yongxi Prefecture has been greatly reduced. When Song Yu went down the tower, he was only a moment away from those alien beasts and ghosts, and he only heard a few faint muffled sounds.
Collide.
On the other hand, the city was much more lively. The people who had been driven into the inner city in their sleep saw that the situation was settled, and they all crowded back to the outer city. Without the anxiety of losing their homes, they even dared to challenge the guards. For a time, the streets were called
Noisy.
Yongxi Prefecture's internal and external troubles have been brought to light.
