Xuan Tian Ming Shou has been building the city for some time. The streets and alleys of the city have been cleaned up by hundreds of thousands of troops for days, but the blood mixed with the smell of decay still lingers in the air.
, became proof that countless innocent souls once existed in this city.
He planned to move his camp to the east in the near future and quickly attack Tongcheng. Although the spies reported that the situation in Tongcheng was a bit strange, he could not stand still just because of the strangeness. What was ambushed in the five-mile defense line was always coming.
Just take a look for yourself.
Feng Yuheng had reservations about attacking too early. Now that Xuan Tianhua has not been found and her life and death are unknown, she felt unwilling to leave Jiancheng like this. Although even if they arrived in Tongcheng, the search here would not stop, but
It's not as easy as now that she can go into the mountains to find it by herself every day. What's more, there is Duanmu Anguo over there in Tongcheng, who is still doing things in Tongcheng even though he knows that the Dashun Army has thunder and firearms.
You have made arrangements to fight them, do you not want to live? Or do you have something to rely on? If you have something to rely on, what is it that makes Duanmu Anguo think that he can fight against Tianlei?
Feng Yuheng was puzzled, but he also knew that the army could not stay in Jiancheng forever. This was the territory of the Zongsui people, and they came here to conquer this land. If they remained stagnant for a long time, not only would their morale be weakened, but they would also
With the burden of adding a lot of food and grass.
She had no objection, and finally searched the mountains for another day. After still finding no whereabouts of Xuan Tianhua, she silently followed Xuan Tianming to camp and head east.
However, they did not know that Xuan Tianhua had already reached Tongcheng territory ahead of them. After several explorations, he still stopped outside the five-mile defense line. The walls of Tongcheng were visible, standing quietly five miles away. He had
Secret guards were sent several times to try to break through the defense line and enter Tongcheng. Unfortunately, the entire Tongcheng was surrounded by people. There were several paths with soldiers going between the city defenses and the city gate, but the paths were extremely narrow. Duanmu
People in Anguo are very cautious when walking, and there seem to be certain rules that cannot be easily set foot on by secret guards.
Xuan Tianhua suspected that there was a trap in the enclosed area, and it must be an extremely powerful trap buried under the five miles of land. The Dashun soldiers had no wings and could not fly across the five miles to break the city. They wanted to get close.
Tongcheng must set foot on these five miles of land. Since Duanmu Anguo is so confident in his own organization, it cannot be easily broken.
Xuan Tianhua was blocked outside the city like this, looking at the five miles of blank space. He kept thinking and exploring for several days, but he still couldn't find the reason.
At that time, Xuan Tianming's army was already on its way to Tongcheng. There were hundreds of thousands of people, and they were not moving very fast. Tanri would report on the situation in Tongcheng every day, but they were still blocked there.
Outside the five-mile defense line, there are naturally Dashun spies in Tongcheng. Unfortunately, people from outside can't get in, and people inside naturally can't get out. Information is blocked in this way, making the entire Tongli a confused spot.
city.
The army was still two days away from entering Tongcheng territory, but on this day, Xuantian, Ming, Feng and Yuheng received an unexpected news from the spies. Tongcheng raised a high pole in the middle of the five miles and hung it on it.
Holding the body of His Royal Highness Xuan Tianhua.
When the news came, Feng Yuheng's scalp felt numb. Her intuition told her that it was not true, because she believed that her sixth sense was very sharp, whether it was Xuan Tianming or Xuan Tianhua, this
She should feel it whenever there is any disturbance in the people who are close to her. Just like that day when Xuan Tianhua used the magic musical instrument to defeat the enemy, even if she followed the army and retreated to Bincheng, her heart was still torn.
It was a lump, and it would throb from time to time. But now, even if she heard that the enemy hung up Xuan Tianhua's body, she still didn't react at all.
Xuan Tianming also felt that this matter may not be true. The five-mile blank area hung in the middle, which was quite far away. The spies might have seen it wrong.
But the spy who reported back said: "My subordinates have clearly seen that it is indeed His Highness the Seventh Prince."
Such a definite answer made the two of them panic a little. Even though Feng Yuheng thought in her heart that it must be a trap, there was no way it was Xuan Tianhua's true form. But things are like this sometimes. You know clearly that it is a trap, but
I have to stick my head out and dig into someone else's condom. Because everything has a what if, what if... it's true?
Xuan Tianming ordered that the army advance rapidly, quickly approached Tongcheng, and set up camp ten miles outside the city. At the same time, groups of secret guards were sent out to investigate, making sure to see clearly who the corpse was.
There was a corpse hanging out, which had already been hidden near the defense line. Xuan Tianhua was naturally the first to notice it. He knew whether it was him or not, and even analyzed it with the secret guard: "I heard that Li Yue, the sixth princess of Zong Sui, once did this.
Having seen many masks of this king, it is not surprising that such a corpse appears in Tongli now. However, I know what is going on, but others do not. The purpose of Duanmu Anguo's doing this is nothing more than to lure Ming'er
Come here as soon as possible, and even more hope that Ming'er can enter the five-mile defense line to rescue the body!" With a gloomy look on his face, he ordered his secret guards: "Go back and meet His Highness Ninth Prince with two people, and inform him that this king is safe and sound.
Don't be fooled by that old thief in Duanmu."
The secret guard nodded and walked away. Xuan Tianhua sighed and murmured: "Ming'er came so fast that I couldn't even touch the five miles of blank space clearly. The hexagram shows that death is
The place of calamity is within the scope of Tongcheng, could it be within these five miles?" He stood on a high ground, looking at the faintly visible Tongcheng city wall, and thought that if the bones were left in a foreign land, when Dashun took Tongcheng into the territory,
I wonder if someone will go to the place where his bones were left every year to fill in a handful of new soil.
Is it a mechanism? Someone always has to do it. He came down from the height, walked lightly, and walked towards Tongcheng's five-mile defense line.
The secret guards behind him followed quietly, carefully protecting their master.
During the zombie battle when the city was built, Xuan Tianhua finally drove away the ten marksmen ahead of time, leaving only his own ten secret guards to protect him. He even never used the pistol that Feng Yuheng gave him.
Never used.
Where did such heaven-defying weapons come from? He had never thought of asking Feng Yuheng to find out, but it didn't mean that he didn't understand the threats and changes those things brought to the world. He was vaguely worried.
I always think that if one day not only Dashun people have that kind of heaven-defying thing, but all countries have it, what will the world look like? Just like Zong Sui's iron spirit technique, how many countries have it
What do you covet? Once the thunder spreads across the world, and once every battle destroys this continent in that way, it will be the end.
He doesn't want the end to come, and he doesn't want that kind of thing to be widely used. Therefore, he doesn't need the people from the marksman team to protect him with machine guns. He would rather fight hard with his internal strength, and would rather hold on with the blood of his tongue.
I don't want to hear the "click-click" sound of machine gun fire.
This is Xuan Tianhua's obsession and his ideal. But he doesn't know that many, many years later, the situation will change and the dynasties will change. In his opinion, weapons that are against the heaven will become the main force of human wars, and every country will continue to fight against them.
Continuous development and upgrading not only safeguard the safety of the people, but are also the greatest threat to human life.
He stopped near the defense line. This was the closest they could get into this area in the past few days. He once observed the Zong Sui soldiers walking back and forth on a small road at this place, and carefully took notes.
Every foothold.
The path was very narrow, allowing only one person to pass. Zong Sui's soldiers always walked up in a row. Those behind followed the footprints left by those in front, walking with great care, for fear that if they took a wrong step, they would be doomed.
.There were even people walking out of the city who immediately patted their hearts with their hands as soon as they came out of the defense line, indicating that they finally passed safely and saved their lives.
Being so careful made Xuan Tianhua even more curious about the mechanism buried underground. He then sent secret guards back to meet Xuan Tianming. At the same time, he conveyed his analysis and worries to Xuan Tianming and told him not to do anything after setting up camp.
Be anxious to explore these five miles of empty space to avoid sadness.
Night after night, and then into the night, Xuan Tianhua kept staring at the soldiers passing by, until the limit of his vision range. He wrote down every footprint that could be stepped on, and then he took action. In the night, one step at a time
Step by step, approach the defense line.
The secret guard didn't know what he was going to do. He felt that he was getting closer and closer to the enemy, so he had to remind him in a low voice: "Your Highness, if you go further, you will be easily noticed by the enemy."
"No." Xuan Tianhua stopped at an optimal distance, "Let's go here." After saying that, he stretched out his hand to point forward, "Have you seen that path? I will go there myself.
Tan, it would be great if we can follow that road into Tongli, but if not, we can always take a closer look at what is hidden in the five-mile area."
"Your Highness!" The secret guard was shocked, "It's very dangerous! If you must investigate, it's your subordinates' turn to go. Your Highness's internal strength has not been fully restored, so you must not do it."
"It doesn't matter." He waved his hand, "It has recovered to 70%, which is enough to evade these city defense soldiers. Don't worry, those soldiers can walk around safely, and I will not be in danger. You can wait outside.
The army of His Highness Ninth Prince must tell him not to attack the city until the king comes out."
The secret guard couldn't persuade Xuan Tianhua, and just when he wanted to persuade him a few more words, Xuan Tianhua suddenly used Qinggong, and his figure flashed through the air like a bolt of lightning. When he reappeared, he was already standing on the line of Zong Sui.
Soldiers were traveling on the trails between Tongcheng and Tongcheng.
It was not the time for the changing of the guard in the silent night, and there was no one on the path. The defending soldiers only saw a flash of white light in front of their eyes. By the time they reacted, someone had already shouted: "No! Someone has gone in!" After a closer look, it was not the case.
Well, a man in white clothes was standing on the path, facing the direction of Tongcheng, walking carefully step by step.
The soldiers were panicked. Although they were wearing the clothes of the Sui people, they were actually soldiers of Duanmu Anguo. Some of them knew what was buried under the five miles of land. Therefore, at this time,
Even if they saw Xuan Tianhua entering the defense line, they really didn't dare to step forward to stop him, let alone conflict with him in that place. They could only watch helplessly as Xuan Tianhua moved forward step by step, while they retreated step by step.
Finally, they were afraid that someone within the defense line would accidentally trigger a thunderstorm. If a thunderstorm exploded, they would not survive.
Xuan Tianhua walked on the path, carefully calculating his steps, his mind filled with the walking patterns of Zong Sui's soldiers that he had memorized in the past few days.
However, despite being so careful, during a wrong step, I suddenly felt a foreign object protruding from my feet, as if I had stepped on something...
