Chapter two thousand and eighty waves undercurrent
As the thick fog covering Kuocheng gradually dissipated, the sky gradually became brighter, and the entire Kuocheng fully showed its true colors.
But compared to yesterday, Kuocheng was completely different at this moment. After nightfall, Su Wang Guihua and these families fought in the old district in the north of the city. The killings they caused were already shocking, but compared with the current scene, it was nothing.
It's just an appetizer.
At the last moment, the big shopkeeper was forced to join forces with the Nether Clan and activated the Nether Clan's teleportation formation. With the arrangement, the Nether Clan immediately started killing and devouring madly after breaking into the city.
.
Such an important southern city of Xuanwu, which was not inferior to the county level, saw that within a few hours, nearly half of the city had been slaughtered by the Netherworld Beast.
At present, almost no one in the entire city knows about the invasion of the Netherworld Beasts, but very few people know the specific situation, number, cultivation level, etc. of the Netherworld Beasts.
As a result, the judgments and response methods of the various forces are also different. The Su Wang family has the clearest understanding of the situation at the moment. Especially after Wang Mi returned to the Su family mansion, they knew clearly about the Netherworld Beast.
In most cases.
According to Zuo Feng's plan, Duan Yueyao became the overall commander of the Su family's residence. After receiving the information brought back by Wang Mi, Duan Yueyao immediately sent two groups of people, one to the Wang family's residence and the other to the Su family's residence.
City Lord's Mansion.
The purpose of these two groups of people is to move all the defense methods of the two forces to the Su family's mansion. If it were the Wang family or the city lord's palace before, they might still have some reservations.
But now that the situation is like this, the two families no longer hesitate at all, and the turning point of life and death is right in front of them. If it is not handled well, all the people present will die at the hands of the Netherworld Beast, and everything else will be meaningless even if it is preserved.
.
There are slight differences between the two groups of people. The group of people going to the City Lord's Mansion is stronger. Because the City Lord's Mansion is close to the center of Kuocheng. According to Wang Mi's judgment, the Nether Beast will gradually move towards the city as it continues to kill.
The central area of Kuocheng is approaching.
Therefore, the group of people sent to Kuocheng were mainly those with strong fighting ability. The other group of warriors who went to the Wang family were not strong in fighting ability, but they were larger in number, especially the Wang family's warriors who accounted for the majority.
The warriors from the Wang family who were stationed before left had already dismantled some of the mechanisms, but those mechanisms were simple and easy to dismantle. This time, the Wang family sent a large number of warriors to dismantle all the mechanisms and move them as a whole to Su.
Come home.
Here, the Su family is still busy dealing with the approaching Netherworld beasts, but there are still some forces in the city who are quietly gathering together.
At this time, these forces that are gathering are not very powerful originally, and they are all inconspicuous existences within the city. Some small families have only a dozen people in total, and some of them have slightly larger shops.
, the number of people is only a few dozen.
Such forces had remained silent before and had never participated in the fights between families such as Suwang Guihua. Moreover, their own strength was too ordinary and could easily be ignored by those big families.
The neglected families and forces in front of them are all moving. Under the rays of the rising sun, these warriors are moving quickly and gathering towards a certain location.
Looking from the air, you will find that these small forces and families, no matter where they are, are slowly concentrating towards the south of the city, not the southeast of Kuocheng where the Su family is located, but the opposite direction to the southwest of Kuocheng.
On the side of a street more than two miles away from the city gate in the south of Kuocheng, a very inconspicuous two-story restaurant was quiet. Not only was there such a big battle last night, but there was usually nothing happening in such a restaurant in the morning.
Business, not to mention it was only sunrise at this time.
In the quiet restaurant, a series of hurried footsteps sounded, and someone walked up quickly from below. On the second floor of the quiet restaurant, there was a middle-aged man with his hands behind his back. After hearing the footsteps, he slowly walked up.
Turn around and look back.
Although he looked very calm on the surface, there was a strong sense of vigilance in his eyes. He even staggered his steps slightly when turning around, adopting a posture of fighting with others at any time.
Not many people knew this person in Kuocheng, but Zuo Feng was one of the few people who had seen him. The middle-aged man who was slowly turning around at this time was one of the two guest servants of the big shopkeeper.
of mud pond.
"Master Nitang!"
The warrior who walked up the steps was wearing a large cloak that covered his entire body, but as soon as he reached the second floor, he knelt down on one knee without hesitation.
Ni Tang, who was maintaining a state of vigilance, stared coldly at the warrior who was kneeling respectfully on the ground and saluting him. The vigilance in his eyes gradually turned into a strong cold murderous intention.
"When were you assigned to the Kuocheng City Guards, and when did you receive the instructions for the second step of the plan from the big shopkeeper?"
While Ni Tang was speaking, a looming aura was already released from his body, shrouding the man kneeling on the ground in front of him.
Although the strength of the man in front of him was only at the early stage of receiving Qi, he did not show any fear when facing the mud pond at the peak stage of receiving Qi. He raised his head and answered very calmly: "Your Majesty, the villain is not the boss.
The person who assigned me and sent me directly was the family’s elders. I can’t remember the exact time, but it was about half a year ago.”
"Um?"
Ni Tang could not hide his surprise at this time, because he really did not expect that the person in front of him would be directly appointed by the Lin family elders.
You must know that this group of elders does not belong to the Shu surname lineage, nor does it belong to the Mu surname lineage, but is the real top level of the Lin family above the two surnames.
"The second step of the plan was not arranged by the Grand Treasurer, but the plan formulated by the elders. When the first part of the Grand Treasurer's plan failed, I would inform and arrange his follow-up plan and the specific content of the action."
The middle-aged man paused for a moment, as if to give Ni Tang some time to digest what he had said before. When he spoke again, Ni Tang's expression became even more shocked.
Compared to Ni Tang's ugly face, the middle-aged man opposite him looked as calm as water, as if he only said a trivial matter.
Shen Yin Shao leaned back to Ni Tang, and finally couldn't help but speak again, saying: "In addition to informing me now, you should also inform Guest Rouge, right?"
The man who was kneeling on one knee suddenly raised his head. Although his strength was only in the early stage of receiving Qi, the temperament he displayed now was a trait only possessed by a superior person.
"The people who were sent to notify Rouge have not heard back yet. There has been no contact until now. I'm afraid the situation is already in danger."
From his words, one can already feel that the middle-aged man was suppressing his anger and murderous intent, and he did not take the Rouge guest in his eyes at all.
Ni Tang, who had been a little surprised before, finally held back his words and asked, "Excuse me, what is your status in the Lin family!"
"deacon."
Looking at the man opposite him with slight surprise, Ni Tang's eyes were filled with disbelief. The more he looked at the young man in front of him, the more obvious his suspicion became.
The two of them fell into a brief silence, and the depressing feeling in the air permeated the entire space on the second floor.
Suddenly, the man who was kneeling on one knee slowly stood up, and it was only at this moment that Ni Tang saw the other man's entire appearance. From this look, the man in the big cloak was very young, only about twenty-six or seventeen years old. Facing him was
He looked very calm in the mud pond, and there was even a sense of looking down on him in his calmness.
"I am indeed a deacon, but I am a deacon of the Presbytery!"
As soon as these words came out, Ni Tang's body trembled violently, and even though he was shocked, there was a hint of doubt in his eyes. On the contrary, the young man was extremely calm, with an expression that he could see through Ni Tang's mind, and slowly spread his hands.
.
In the palm of his hand, there is a jade plaque as black as ink. Such ink-like jade is extremely rare. Look at the jade plaque with the word "Zhi" engraved on it. As the young man's spiritual energy is sent into it, that
The word "Zhi" was immediately covered with a light golden coat.
Looking at the jade plaque in the young man's hand, it was Ni Tang's turn to be solemn. Then he bowed his head respectfully and bowed to the young man.
The reversal of the relationship between the two people is obviously related to the ink-colored jade card that the young man took out, and it is also related to the young man's identity.
"I didn't know it was the deacon of the presbytery who came in person. There was a lot of disrespect in the past. Since I am the deacon of the presbytery, I will definitely do what you told me." This time, he was cautious when speaking, and did not dare to be disrespectful in his words or attitude.
Not the slightest fault.
The young man waved his hand and said very casually: "Not only are you unclear, but the big shopkeeper was also unclear before this. No one could have imagined that the situation in Kuocheng would become so subtle. Captain Lin and his gang dared to break the Lin family's rules.
, these must be dealt with seriously.
But these are no longer important. My people have already contacted some families and forces. There are still some that you need to contact. No matter what method is used, after an hour, we must gather at the Tong family warehouse in the south of the city. Never
It can influence subsequent plans.”
After the young man made his request, he spoke out a series of names of small families and forces. Nitang didn't dare to be careless in remembering them all.
The young man in the big cloak had no intention of staying any longer after explaining this. He turned around and planned to leave. But when he was about to go downstairs, he suddenly stopped, tilted his head slightly to one side, and added one last sentence.
"Whether it is the big shopkeeper or you, the elders can not pursue the previous mistakes, but the premise is that you don't mess up this matter, otherwise... you will have your own way to deal with it."
As soon as the voice fell, the young man walked down the stairs and walked away into the distance.
