Today, in Guixiang Upstairs, there are a few wisps of cool breeze, carrying the aroma of wine and meat, mixed with extravagant singing and dancing.
The best part of Guixianglou Restaurant has been cleared. If someone is lucky enough to break through the innkeepers and guards, they will find that almost all the prominent people in the officialdom of Yongxi Prefecture are gathered here at this time.
Drinking wine and glasses were exchanged among each other. Such a banquet could no longer accommodate Song Yu. There was a dazzling array of delicacies and fine wines on the table. However, the leader of Song Yu only ate some insignificant side dishes and drank the lowest quality wine. Although it was somewhat incompatible with everyone.
, but after all, he was the biggest contributor to the arrest of Liu Huaijun, and everyone accepted his peculiarity, not to mention that crude wine can also make people drunk.
So, in the end, Song Yu had no choice but to urinate and escape. He was so dizzy that he found a small corner and banged the small wooden fish to let his drunken and dizzy state gradually subside.
When he lowered his head and knocked for a while, his neck was sore, and when he raised his head to move around, he found that Jie Nanshi was already standing beside him, his brows furrowed as if he was uneasy.
Song Yu endured the dizziness and knocked the wooden fish a few more times: "What's wrong?"
Jie Nanshi looked at Song Yu, his dark eyes colder than the night, but with a touch of moonlight tenderness: "I don't think the matter is over."
Song Yu shook his head to brace himself, and clapped his fingers one by one as he spoke: "Liu Huaijun pleads guilty. Although the state leader Qi Baisheng is seriously injured and has not woken up, he is still alive at least. With the care of the elders, it is only a matter of time before he wakes up. For
The seal of the Sword Pavilion Formation, which is crucial to the entire Yongxi Prefecture, is also in our hands. Of course, everything is not yet in a state of peace, but we have not lost any cards in our hand that can compete with the White Walkers. Also
What’s not over yet?”
Xie Nanshi's eyes were as calm as water. He waited until Song Yu finished speaking and another two or three breaths passed before Xie Nanshi said again: "I have read Liu Huaijun's confession, and there are many things that cannot be explained."
Song Yu tilted his head and looked at Jie Nanshi and smiled. The drunkenness in his eyes had not been completely eliminated by Muyu, but the logic in his words seemed to be clearer than anyone else: "For example, how did he get involved with the White Walkers? For example.
, the White Walkers knew that there was such a formation in Yongxi State, but they still dared to fly into flames? For example, when they captured the White Walkers in the city before, they were wiped out? For example, Taoist Sutra and Xiao Qi had completely taken over the state capital,
But we have never found where the White Walkers who were previously released into the city are hiding?"
As Song Yu asked questions one after another, ripples gradually appeared in Xie Nanshi's calm eyes, and there was a trace of confusion in his voice: "So you know everything."
"Of course I know. Some people may think that the current situation has been settled, but I don't. In my world, this game will not be over until at least the White Walkers invade the city." The number one in the Song Dynasty
This is the first time I know that I actually get cold after drinking in the game. Also, since there is no way to upgrade, his physical condition in this round is completely different from that in the first round.
Xie Nanshi had a very strange feeling in his heart. He thought he knew Song Yu well enough, but when Song Yu once again said these words that he couldn't understand, he suddenly felt that Song Yu had no regard for this world.
The strong feeling of alienation has not disappeared.
Even so, Xie Nanshi didn't feel how far the distance between Song Yu and himself was. Although he hadn't fully digested those "games" and "systems", at this moment, he also had feelings about everything that happened in Yongxi Prefecture.
A kind of passing mentality. But he grew up here and the meaning of his life is here. Why does he feel like this?
Xie Nanshi's eyes flickered for a moment, then suddenly lowered his eyes: "If this is a game, how will it develop next?"
"There must be a reversal to explain the questions I raised earlier."
Song Yu didn't know what was going on in Xie Nanshi's heart. After blowing in the wind, he felt much more awake. He stood up and patted the wrinkles on his clothes: "Although Liu Huaijun's confession seems to be fine on the surface,
But he must be hiding something. Fortunately, there is still some time left before the White Walkers invade the city, and we still have time to dig deeper."
Jie Nanshi looked at the sky. It was a full moon tonight, the moonlight was dazzling and much larger than usual: "There is still half a month left."
During the full moon, strange beasts will be affected by the tides and become particularly ferocious.
During the new moon, when there is no moonlight between heaven and earth, it is the time when ghosts appear most violently.
Xie Nanshi and Song Yu looked at each other. Song Yu was very sad: "Can I not go back? I can't eat anything good. Is this housewarming banquet going to be a celebration banquet today?"
"So we can't leave you alone." Xie Nanshi looked at Song Yu and said seriously: "It seems this is your fate, a meal you can't escape."
If you look carefully, you will see a pleasant smile on the corner of his mouth.
Song Yu looked at Xie Nanshi curiously: "You are getting better and better at teasing now."
Xie Nanshi agreed happily.
Even though Song Yu was reluctant, he finally returned to the banquet. During the moment when he came out for air, everyone at the banquet seemed to be even more drunk. The Taoist priest knocked on the wine jar and sang while the others waited or
Wiping away tears, or with a solemn expression on his face, he was so serious that it was unexpected.
Song Yu almost thought he had gone to the wrong set.
"This song is called "Yaoyao Song". It is an ancient song and uses old sounds." Xie Nanshi came back one step behind Song Yu. He seemed to see the doubts in Song Yu's eyes and took the initiative to explain.
.
Song Yu didn't intend to continue drinking, so he secretly sat in a corner, took out a folding fan from his sleeve and whispered into Xie Nanshi's ear: "So what is the content of this song?"
Jie Nanshi frowned and did not answer. Instead, he hummed softly to the tune of the music.
"My beloved husband, I will send you to a distant battlefield. You have made great achievements, and I will be waiting for you in my hometown."
"My beloved husband, I will send you to a distant battlefield. I hope you will fight bravely. I will wait for you in my hometown.
My beloved husband, I am sending you to a distant battlefield. I hope you are safe and sound. I am waiting for you in my hometown.
My beloved husband, you are sleeping on a distant battlefield. You are safe and sound, and I will always wait for you."
Xie Nanshi translated the lyrics into the simplest and most straightforward way, and his voice was mixed in with the vague ancient music of a random Taoist priest. The tune was strange, but in this low-pitched response, there was an added sadness that was given to those who traveled far away.
Song Yu unknowingly picked up the wine glass and drank the wine in one gulp until Xie Nanshi's voice stopped.
He didn't seem to expect that Xie Nanshi could sing, and he seemed to be shocked by the lyrics and music. He didn't speak for a while. After a while, he raised his head and looked at the people in the field. The smile on his lips faded a little: "It seems that I
Wrong. This is not a continuation of the housewarming party, nor a celebration party, but a swearing-in ceremony."
Yes, even if there is such a powerful formation to protect Yongxi State, how can the state city attacked by the White Walkers easily survive the disaster? Once explained with realistic logic, the tragedy before us seems very logical.
But this is just a game. In other words, Song Yu doesn't know whether this is just a special game with vicious bugs.
For a moment, Song Yu even felt that his outlook on life was so shocking that he had a headache.
The song "Yaoyao Song" was sung over and over by the Taoist Priest, and later some people sang in response. There was a feast of lights, and finally there was a cry from the most luxurious restaurant in Yongxi Prefecture.
Song Yu even lost the memory of how he ended up in the Song Mansion. He only remembered that he howled with everyone after being drunk. He had to wait until they had vented their emotions before the sky fell.
However, no one expected that God would not give them any chance to breathe.
In the midst of a hangover, strange ghosts attack the city.
…
The full moon hung high in the sky, and the bright moonlight illuminated Yuanao Mountain. The grass blades moved one after another, revealing the tails, backs, and sharp eyes of some beasts that could not be completely hidden.
If it were in the past, the security personnel of the Security Department would definitely have noticed it. However, the reason why the Security Department's tokens can freely enter and exit the formation is because they dismantled the seal envelope and hid it in the token. The war is imminent, in order to ensure safety
This city-protecting seal of the Secretary can be activated at any time. The Security Department no longer sends out tokens, and its value is greatly reduced.
Therefore, the first people to notice the abnormality were the city guards.
A dark beast tide swallowed up all the moonlight, and it was so dark that you couldn't see the side. It was not the rainy season now, and the water in the moat was less than half. The moat was more like a moist trench. The beast tide regarded this as nothing, and almost instantly destroyed it.
It's flooded here together.
Bang bang bang——
The city defense formation at night was extremely effective. The beasts with fierce fangs bumped into them one by one and turned into powder almost instantly. Only some strange light spots dispersed in the air, floating higher and higher, like sparks.
Three long bells are the signal for attack by alien beasts.
One long and three short bells ring, which is a signal for an attack by a strange beast.
Beacon fires were suddenly ignited on the city wall, and everyone in the city guard, both awake and asleep, rushed out. The monks and those who could use talisman arrows quickly climbed up the city wall and shot at the endless tide of beasts.
One sword after another.
As for the new soldiers, or the guards who were not well-educated, they went down the city wall, beat gongs and drums, and violently drove away the residents who were still lying on the soft bedding, asking them to leave the city close to the city wall and go as far as possible to the inner city.
.
The roads and alleys were filled with complaints for a while. Young people, especially, were getting more and more angry. It’s not that they didn’t know the specialness of Yongxi Prefecture, it’s just that there had been no trouble in Yongxi Prefecture for nearly ten years and everyone was living a comfortable life.
Just like before, I packed my bed every day, knowing that when I hear the bell, I can quickly abandon my home.
Only some old people who were no longer able to speak at home looked at the nephew who was arguing with the guard with a somewhat sad look, and then watched helplessly as the other person was knocked unconscious with the handle of a knife.
As for some elderly people who were not in good health, they simply gave up and moved to the inner city so as not to burden their families. They sat at home, chanted sutras and worshiped Buddha, praying that this time it was a false alarm.
Xie Nanshi is one of the rare sober people in the room. It’s not that he has never drank, but that he has many rules. Cold wine is harmful to the body, so what he drinks is warmed on the stove, so naturally he doesn’t drink as much as others. In addition,
At his level, with attributes higher than full level, it's not easy to get drunk.
He was also the first one to hear the movement outside, and he picked up Song Yu, who was sleeping soundly with his quilt next door.
Song Yu was still awake after being forcibly shaken awake. He could only rub his eyes violently, almost cruelly. When he could see something clearly, he subconsciously summoned his backpack: "What's wrong?"
The little wooden fish was beaten like crazy without any durability.
Xie Nanshi had no time to explain, so he set up Song Yu and dragged the body that had not yet fully awakened and rushed out: "It's an attack on the city."
