Chapter 76 - sneak into
Cheng Huaiqian beckoned to the old Baitou and others hiding in the dark, and the two helped carry the luggage across the city wall.
After climbing over the city wall, Old Baitou couldn’t believe that they left Ping’an City so easily. In addition, his nephew Xiaonan’s mental state seemed much better, and he was overjoyed.
“Have you been optimistic about the route in advance? We will give you a ride.”
Cheng Huaiqian interrupted the old Baitou’s emotion and urged him to go on the road as soon as possible.
Old Baitou came to his senses. They had just left Ping’an City. When they were not relaxed, they nodded again and again, and led the way first, and left in the northwest direction of Ping’an City.
With Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize helping with the luggage, the group was not slow.
It wasn’t until they walked for more than an hour that Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize said goodbye to a few people and prepared to return to Ping’an City.
“Old Cheng, Ozawa, Ping’an City is really dangerous now, you might as well go with us!”
Since the old Baitou escaped from Ping’an City, he felt a lot more relaxed. At this time, how could he bear to watch Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize go back.
“No, let’s go first, we still have things to do, don’t worry, when it’s really dangerous, we’ve been familiar with the route tonight, and we’ll leave Ping’an City at that time.”
Xia Ruize reassured and bid farewell to Cheng Huaiqian decisively.
After more than an hour on the road, at this speed, they already knew the time and route needed to go to the nearest city. The goal has been achieved, and it is time to rush back.
The two rushed back to the barracks at full speed and had time to lie down and rest for a while after washing up.
From Xia Ruize’s point of view, he was woken up as soon as he closed his eyes. Looking at the time in the system, it was four o’clock in the morning.
It has been two consecutive days that the training started at 6:00 in the morning, and suddenly the soldiers started to wake up at 4:00 in the morning. Many soldiers were very angry. Finally, the conflict broke out near the well.
The anger of getting up and the rush to scramble for clean water to wash up caused some soldiers to endure the whole night’s temper.
Almost as soon as the barracks became chaotic, Cheng Huaiqian pulled Xia Ruize up to a tree next to the martial arts field, hiding on the branches to watch the fun while avoiding being affected.
“The number of people involved in the chaos is increasing. Twenty-eight, thirty-two, thirty-seven, oh, forty-six…”
Xia Ruize relied on the expansion of the space retrospective coverage, and broadcasted what he saw to Cheng Huaiqian live.
The soldier who just woke up and was still in a daze was suddenly slapped by the person next to the water basin. He wondered if the other party was not careful. At the moment, he was so angry that he immediately raised the water basin and patted it back. In a hurry, it is inevitable that other people are accidentally brought around, so more and more soldiers are affected by the melee.
Seeing that the barracks was smashed into a mess not long after, some people still kept their senses, especially those corps leaders who were in charge of commanding and seldom fought personally last night. One punch knocked the fighting soldiers down, and soon, a large area fell around the well.
“I really doubt that when the so-called Full Moon Tribulation comes, will anyone still be able to maintain their combat effectiveness?”
The corner of Cheng Huaiqian’s mouth raised a sarcastic arc. So far, he has not seen anything difficult to deal with evil spirits, but he has seen that the human side is really in a lot of situations and it is very difficult to deal with.
“Should we do something? If there is no sane person who can resist the evil spirits, we won’t be able to last long.”
Xia Ruize’s tone also became serious, and she felt a little more worried.
To put it bluntly, the Full Moon Tribulation is actually a war between the humans of Ping An City and the evil spirits of the evil sea. No matter how strong one’s personal ability is, it can affect local battles at most, but it is powerless to affect the overall war.
Now that they’ve realized there’s a problem, why not do something about it?
“How about going to meet the city lord in person at night? Since there is no information from other people’s mouths, the city lord must know something.”
Cheng Huaiqian suggested in a relaxed tone.
Xia Ruize thought for a moment and agreed. They were sure of their own strength, and they could still run if they couldn’t do it.
So the two discussed preparations for a night visit to the City Lord’s Mansion.
By the time the chaos in the barracks was suppressed, and all the soldiers were obediently standing in line on the martial arts field, more than an hour had passed.
“You guys are really talented! How dare you make trouble in the barracks! Everyone is punished together! Run ten laps around the city!”
The captain of the city guard, who came over to hear the news, was furious, and roared at the soldiers below on the high platform, “I haven’t criticized your performance when you went out of the city last night, you have made me a bigger mess, you are good. !”
The soldiers who participated in the disturbance were reprimanded for being unhappy, and the soldiers who did not participate in the chaos but were punished were even more unhappy, so that when running, even if the voice of the corporal reprimanded from time to time, the whole team was still filled with air. An uncooperative, reluctant attitude.
If it weren’t for the fact that the whips in the hands of the corps leaders were really powerful, I’m afraid that some soldiers would have given up.
However, this punishment could not be executed in the end, because as the sky brightened, conflicts broke out frequently in various places in Ping An City.
Most of the official members of the moat team go out to fight in the city at night, and the rest time is during the day. The remaining members take on the heavy responsibility of maintaining order in the city and guarding the city wall during the day.
However, in the face of the constant outbreak of conflicts everywhere, the number of regular members of the defense team was really not enough, and the temporary members had to be transferred to guard the city wall again, so that the strength of the regular members could be spared to deal with public security incidents.
Cheng Huaiqian asked Xia Ruize to guard the city wall, and at the same time created an illusion to hide from others. He himself left the city wall and sneaked into the safe city during the day, making various preparations.
As night fell, the temporary team members returned to the barracks and concentrated on the martial arts field. The captain of the defense team looked at the soldiers below and felt anxious. In the past two days, in order to clean up the mess in the city, the temporary team members did not train much, and their actual combat performance was not satisfactory.
After reprimanding for more than half an hour, after summarizing the criticism of last night’s actual combat performance, the captain may have also felt the low pressure among the soldiers, and finally started an activity to make the soldiers a little happier: rewarding spirit stones.
It turned out that the logistics staff who were in charge of counting and collecting spirit stones were behind the team out of the city last night. They had already counted the number of spirit stones obtained by each minion by killing evil spirits last night. According to the previous promise, after deducting half of the spirit stones, it will be distributed to each minion. hands.
This time, the captain of the defense team made a loud announcement on the high platform that each soldier came to the stage to receive his own spiritual stone in turn, so that each soldier clearly realized that the more battles, the more rewards.
“Nie Yong, 3 pieces.
Xu Da, 4.
Cheng Huaiqian, 6.
Xia Ruize, 14…”
All the soldiers can hear clearly. Most of the soldiers get 2 to 4. Originally, it was enviable for a “Cheng Huaiqian” to get 6 Spirit Stones, but then “14” appeared. amazing harvest.
Everyone was stunned, and they craned their necks to see who was so strong. Obviously, everyone went out of the city to fight together. Why is the difference in the final harvest so big?
Unfortunately, the sky turned dark at this time, and only the nearby soldiers saw Cheng Huaiqian and Xia Ruize, but the guard captain on the high platform nodded to the two with satisfaction.
Xia Ruize’s corporal leader was very surprised. As a regular team member, if he went out of the city to perform a mission, he could get 8 to 10 spirit stones at a time, and it had to be close to the period when the evil spirits of the full moon were active, but Xia Ruize could get such a harvest once he went out of the city. A lot, it has a lot of potential.
After distributing the spirit stones, the sky was completely dark, but the soldiers were assigned to be on duty at night. The joy of just getting the spirit stones was a little less, and the resentment rose again. They were on duty during the day and on duty at night, endless!
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian’s duty mission was scheduled from two to four in the morning. The two did not rest at all. After their teammates fell asleep, they left the barracks in a fantasy world. They first went out of the city to kill them until late at night, and once again accumulated a lot of spirits. Shi, and then the two rushed to the City Lord’s Mansion in the dark.
Passing through the anti-spirit shield outside the city lord’s mansion with ease, the two approached another shield on the inside.
However, they did not try to forcibly break the anti-spirit cover, but waited at the edge of the anti-spirit cover. Soon, a washbasin-sized ninja turtle emerged from the soil under their feet.
After buying their own anti-spirit cover, the two began to study the lack of the anti-spirit cover, and finally found that the anti-spirit cover was actually a semi-circular energy cover that was buckled upside down on the ground, which meant that the anti-spirit cover could protect the ground. , can defend against the sky, but cannot defend against the ground.
It was obvious that the evil spirits outside the city came out of the ground. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian didn’t understand why the so-called anti-spirit shield did not protect against the ground, but when they went out of the city to experiment, they found that the evil spirits really couldn’t get in. After all, they didn’t understand the principle. Doubts can only be put aside for the time being.
So Ninja Turtle was sent to the city lord’s mansion, and after carefully and diligently digging a tunnel for a day, he finally dug through both sides of the anti-spirit hood inside the city lord’s mansion, and bypassed the anti-spirit hood through the tunnel.
Xia Ruize touched the ninja turtle and put it away. He didn’t know what was going on. The ninja turtle should have been swimming in the sea, but when this system ninja turtle got into his hands, why was it always digging through the wall?
Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian looked at each other, and without any hesitation, jumped out of the hole dug by the ninja turtle, bypassed the anti-spirit cover, and got inside the anti-spirit cover.
At this time, the inner courtyard of the city lord’s mansion was quiet, and Ninja Turtle had already explored the terrain. Xia Ruize and Cheng Huaiqian rushed to the city lord’s bedroom without hesitation.
The door of the bedroom door was removed by Xia Ruize’s mind force, and the two entered the bedroom smoothly. Xia Ruize was a [mental shock] at the city lord lying on the bed.
The sleeping city lord had no idea that someone would break in quietly, only to feel a sudden tingling in his brain, and wake up instantly with a cry of pain, only to find that a large knife had been placed on his neck.
“Lord City Lord, please don’t yell, this will cause us a lot of trouble, and it would be bad to hurt you accidentally.”
Cheng Huaiqian deliberately lowered his voice, looking particularly gloomy.
Xia Ruize had already lit a candlestick by the table, and the faint candlelight illuminated the three people in the room. The city lord, who was holding his head and forcibly suppressed the pain, sank in his heart. When he was unaware, two people broke in. What was going on?
