"What?! You said someone broke into the courtyard yesterday?!!"
Xiao Chengrong asked again with a solemn expression.
The person in charge of guarding did not dare to lie and explained the entire process in detail:
"Last night at about nine o'clock, a man wearing a black robe and a strange black top hat suddenly appeared in the yard. After seeing us, he turned into black mist and ran away without anything.
take away."
Xiao Chengrong frowned and thought for a while, then asked:
"Nothing else weird happened?"
"No...other than that everything is normal."
At this time, one of the guards who came to report seemed to have remembered something and whispered to his companions.
Yu Lin had been paying attention to the situation here, and by looking at his mouth, he recognized that this person was about to talk about the stone that was suddenly thrown into the house that day.
Others might not think much about it, but with Xiao Chengrong's character, it's hard not to doubt the possibility that there are other people at the scene.
Yu Lin put away his thoughts and gave Shen Xuan a look.
Shen Xuan, who knew everything that happened in the courtyard yesterday, naturally understood what Yu Lin meant. He immediately put a smile on his face and walked to Xiao Chengrong:
"Old Xiao, don't dwell on the details at this time. What we can confirm now is that the mysterious man's actions last night did not succeed. No matter what their purpose is, they are definitely on the opposite side of us. So the most important thing for us right now is
Restore the formation."
Xiao Chengrong frowned. Although he was a little shaken, he still hesitated: "But..."
Shen Xuan put his hand on Xiao Chengrong's shoulder harder: "Oh, Old Xiao! As long as we don't repair the formation for a day, the possibility of unrest increases. Don't forget, those few won't last long."
After hearing the last sentence, Xiao Chengrong finally made up his mind, "Okay, all units are ready to set off in half an hour!"
Shen Xuan smiled gently: "Then I'm going to make preparations. I'll see you there later."
Xiao Chengrong nodded, turned around and went about his own business.
As the person in charge, Shen Xuan and Xiao Chengrong are not on the field. They are responsible for the personnel mobilization of the entire formation and the handling of emergencies.
Taking advantage of everyone's attention, Shen Xuan walked up to Yu Lin and said with a smile:
"I'll have to work hard for you soon."
He looked at Yu Lin and warned again: "I have said hello to Lao Xiao. Lao Yu, just follow the people who are setting up the formation. The person in charge of the main formation is a descendant of a family of formations. I guess
It won't work if you rely on him, please help and look after it."
Yu Lin suddenly coughed softly and signaled Shen Xuan to turn around.
Minister Shen was just talking enthusiastically when he was suddenly interrupted. When he turned around in confusion, he saw the young man standing behind him with an unhappy look on his face, that is, Zhu Yan, the heir to the formation family.
It is said that their ancestors are related to the Zhuge family, and they especially like to add Qimen Dunjia in their formations and integrate them with each other.
Zhu Yan looked at Shen Xuan with a livid face: "Shen Ju, if you have any dissatisfaction with me, you can tell me directly. I can prove my ability to you. I am sure to host this grand formation. I don't need useless words."
Thank you for your kindness."
After finishing speaking, Zhu Yan nodded to Shen Xuan, then turned and left.
Yu Lin deliberately sighed and shrugged. He was not angry at all that he was looked down upon. Instead, he was happy to see Shen Xuan embarrassed and teased:
"I didn't expect that Minister Shen would be criticized one day. Let me tell you that it's not my fault. Let me remind you."
Shen Xuan, who was a little shy, thought he was unlucky and smiled helplessly: "I seem to have caused trouble for you."
Yu Lin's smile was also very gentle and sincere: "It doesn't matter, it will be included in the subsidy."
Shen Xuan nodded with tears in his eyes.
Baizhu, who watched everything, was deeply shocked and thoughtful.
It turns out there is such a way to ask for wages! I learned it! (Cosmic Cat’s Thought Sublimation.jpg)
…
An hour later, everyone had arrived at the scene and was in place.
Due to the scope of the formation, Xiao Chengrong had already found people in advance to temporarily move several elderly families living here to other places in the name of road construction to avoid being affected.
In addition to the twenty-five people who needed to join the formation, only a few Baizhu were allowed to enter the old city.
The rest of the first responders were on standby outside the old city because they were not skilled enough.
Xiao Chengrong, Shen Xuan and related technical personnel were working in the observation vehicle next to the old city.
In the quadrangle, Zhu Yan leads the formation, and the remaining twenty-three magicians whose fates match Xuanwu's are standing in different hexagram positions.
Yu Lin leaned against the wall pillar on one side and watched Zhu Yan's arrangements without any intention of interrupting.
This legendary descendant of the Zhuge family does have some skills. The newly re-arranged formation has solidified every hexagram position through the method of Qimen Dunjia, which can well solve the problem of the integration of the old and new formations.
But there is only one biggest shortcoming——
There are not enough people.
It is true that this method of forming a large formation is the optimal solution at the moment, but Zhu Yan obviously ignored a crucial point. He himself could not hold on.
This level of formation has very high requirements for the cultivation of the people in the main formation. If you can't meet this requirement, you can only spread the pressure to each hexagram position, that is, everyone will bear it together.
But twenty-three people alone, or twenty-three people with varying strengths, are obviously not enough.
She probably won't be able to take any time off after a while.
Yu Lin sighed silently in his heart.
After arranging the positions of others, Zhu Yan walked up to Yu Lin and said with an unkind expression:
"I don't know your identity, but please don't hinder me. Feel free to do anything else."
Yu Lin was very cooperative. After all, this person could be of some help. He made an "OK" gesture and accepted it happily:
"Okay, I'm right here and I'm not going anywhere."
Zhu Yan did not think that Yu Lin was so easy to talk to, so he glanced at her suspiciously, but said nothing more.
At this time, Xiao Chengrong's voice came from everyone's communication headsets at the same time:
"By the way, are the action teams ready?"
Zhu Yan finally glanced at Yu Lin with a warning look in his eyes, pressed the headset and replied:
"Ready boss."
Next came Shen Xuan's voice. Even in such a tense situation, his voice was still gentle:
"Everyone, this change in the Xuanwu Formation was something none of us expected. You are elites recruited from all parties. It will be hard on you from now on. No matter what, we will try our best to ensure your safety. Please!"
Yu Lin, who was also wearing a headset, couldn't help but sigh with emotion, Minister Shen's mobilization ability is really strong.
The two magicians who were originally feeling guilty became excited and confident after hearing these words.
