When there was lightning and thunder in the sky, under Hai Tiantao's signal, some of his confidants rushed towards certain places with his orders.
After learning the orders conveyed from above, many soldiers who were already in armor returned to their original camps and began to stay quietly inside.
Originally, at this time, after a while, they were about to go out to arrest the traitors who wanted to leave here, but since there was an order from above, even if they were confused, they still obeyed the order.
Only a small number of soldiers still went out and started patrolling along the previous routes. The density was greatly reduced compared to before.
In a relatively ordinary-looking courtyard in Tiansheng City, more than a dozen people have gathered, and everyone's face is full of panic. Do they raise their heads and look at the lightning storm in the sky.
¡°Deng Deng¡±
Suddenly, there were two knocks on the door, startling everyone inside. A strong man in the lead took a deep breath, made gestures to appease everyone, and then walked towards the door.
There was no movement after the first knock on the door. It was quiet, as if there was some terrible creature lurking outside.
"Creak" a slight sound.
The strong man slowly opened the door, revealing figures outside. However, after seeing the people coming, his nervous expression relaxed a little.
"Come in quickly!"
The strong man here said as he stepped aside. At the same time, more than a dozen people outside filed in and walked in one after another.
"You guys came a quarter of an hour later than usual, which is really worrying." After seeing that no one was paying attention, the muscular man closed the door and went back.
"You don't know how strict the investigation is now, but I have successfully obtained a road guide to other cities, which can help us get out at this time." One of the middle-aged men looked a bit rich. Hearing this, he couldn't help but complain in the same way.
"That's great, I don't want to be buried here at all." The strong man's eyes were filled with joy, he looked at the purple envelope and said in a lowered voice.
"Of course, do you know what price I paid? Almost all my family property, as well as my wife and children are here. Otherwise, I would be bankrupt and unable to leave, even if it is because my sister is seriously ill." The rich man snorted coldly. He couldn't help but say.
"Thank you for your hard work, but it's a bit of an eyesore for you to bring so many people." The strong man smiled and couldn't help but wonder when he saw the dozen or so people the other party brought.
"These are my bodyguards. If anything goes wrong, they will protect each other to the death. All you need to do is provide the secret passage you mentioned." The rich man said the same, and led the way.
"I understand. It seems that you want to go back. In that case, I have no objection. We will set off when the time is almost up." The strong man gave the other party a meaningful look, but he didn't say much.
The other party is trying to leave here, but I don¡¯t know if he can do as he wishes. You must know that the defenses in other cities are deeper.
Except for the two of them who had a conversation but didn't talk to each other, everyone else was silent and stayed quietly aside.
After half a day, it felt like it was almost time, so they gathered together and walked outside.
With that road guide, it was signed by the city lord himself. Even though they were very suspicious due to the large number of them, they still went out smoothly.
When they were far away from the city, their progress suddenly turned around and they ran quickly towards the wilderness outside.
They stopped at a small hill that looked ordinary. They looked at the golden light flashing not far away. They were not so foolish as to rush over it. You must know that all places are connected to nearby patrols, and you cannot escape. Overcome the other party's pursuit.
"Don't be stunned. Dig quickly while the patrols are not here. The tunnel has been dug below." The strong man here said without any nonsense, and he took the lead in digging with simple tools made on the road.
There is great power in numbers. With more than a dozen people working in turns, in just one stick of incense time, a cave entrance for one person appeared below. The cave entrance was so dark that it was impossible to see what was going on below.
"Hurry up and leave." The strong man glanced at the sky and jumped down first.
According to his judgment, by the time they get out, the attack above will be almost over.
Everyone jumped down, and even the traces above were simply buried. Anyone could find something wrong here, but it didn't matter to them. By the time someone found out, they would have left here long ago.
& nThe ancient struggle of strength makes them feel that they will shed their skin even if they don't die.
Be careful, the other party will leave next month anyway, and it is the safest time to act.
???????????????????????????????????????????????????? Everyone who was originally still full of life and vigor became a little sick, as if the energy and spirit of the body had been sucked away. Except for eating, everyone was lying down weakly, regardless of what others thought.
Gu Zheng also followed the example of others, paralyzing on the ground with a sallow complexion.
¡°Deng-deng-deng¡±
There was a sound of footsteps coming from far away. Except for a few people, everyone lowered their heads silently and didn't even look. They were more like walking zombies.
Out of the corner of his eye, Gu Zheng saw Xingkong walking toward the center, talking to himself.
"It seems that the quality of this group of people is a bit low and they need to be rotated in advance."
As he said this, he came to the black pillar in the middle, waved his palm slightly, and a black shield surrounded him.
Seeing this, Gu Zheng closed his eyes, quietly pressed his consciousness close to it, and began to feel what was happening inside with all his strength. With a trembling sound, the sound inside was clearly transmitted to Gu Zheng's ears.
"Lord Soul, I have already felt the aura of that scroll, but this time I still failed to break through the opponent's defense."
Xingkong¡¯s figure was respectful. Although he couldn¡¯t see inside, he could feel Xingkong¡¯s nervousness.
"Well, this time I asked you to tell you that after you get it, come back to the sword spirit as soon as possible. As long as you send the new ghost down, you will be very happy." A somewhat familiar voice sounded inside.
"But there has been no progress for so many years. Will Xingba send someone over?" Xingkong's tone was full of uneasiness, and he seemed to be very afraid of Xingba.
"Don't worry about this. According to the plan, you will never notice what's going on here. Besides, there is a covering circle, so others can't notice it at all. Just come here quickly. The gourd in your hand is very important. Do you understand?"
"Understood, I will leave here in two years at most and go to meet there!" Xingkong said solemnly.
"It's okay. I must do my best to suppress the riots on the Sword Spirit side. When you come back, the stronghold over there will be destroyed and the opponent will be released. At that time, it will be enough to reopen a passage. We can't make the same mistake again this time. 6 It¡¯s a matter of thousands of years, so you don¡¯t need to contact me next time, I will wait for you here.¡±
"yes!"
Xingkong responded heavily, understanding the meaning very well.
After the figure finished speaking quickly, there was no more sound, and the shield outside gradually began to dissipate.
Gu Zheng quickly withdrew his consciousness and was sure that the other party was coming for Xiaoying, but what was so attractive about her that could make the other party pay such attention to her.
"All of you, get out quickly, you are no longer needed here." Xingkong's face returned to calmness again, and he frowned as he looked at the people in a puddle of flesh.
When everyone heard this, their exhausted bodies seemed to be filled with strength, and they all rolled and crawled towards the outside.
