171. If someone bullies me a foot, I will give it back! (6)
Wu Rong's eyes dimmed: "Subordinate, I just..."
"That's enough!" Ji Wuyan finished his words. The person had disappeared from the dark hall, but the remaining voice was still there: "This is the leader's wish. No one from the Yuan family at Tongmen Gate should be left alive! Elder Ruoyu couldn't bear it.
, just go ahead and report it. But you still need to remember that the Demon Cult does not leave traitors! The leader will be out of seclusion in a few days, what will be the result then... Elder Jade should have not forgotten your predecessor’s departure!"
Wu Rong knelt on the ground for a long time without moving, scraping the hard stone surface angrily, leaving several white marks, and her slender nails were all broken due to the abuse of her master. Of course she would never forget the three thousand sword strikes, wailing.
The sound lasted for five days...
Chapter 72 Blood Moon
-[
It was getting dark, and there were only a few passers-by in front of the east gate of Xiucheng. The guard on duty saw that the closing time had come and shouted impatiently: "Go! Go! The door is about to be closed! If you don't come in tonight, I will go to the wilds."
Stay!"
A few traveling merchants carrying cargo loads had obviously wasted time and were sweating profusely. When they saw that they still had time to enter the city, they rushed forward without taking a breath, and did not forget to smile flatteringly at the guards as they passed by.
.
The dusk was dim, but after a while the back of the walking merchant disappeared.
The four strong men tightened their ape arms and pushed hard, so that the thick copper door, which was more than three feet high, slowly moved. The pillars had been neglected for many years and had developed some rust, making a muffled "creep" sound.
At this time, several horses were galloping on the stagecoach road, smoke and dust were rising in the wind, and a loud male voice came: "Soldiers, wait a minute, wait for me to enter the city!"
The guards looked at each other in confusion and looked towards the road. They could only vaguely hear the sound of powerful and neat hooves of horses, but not a single person was visible.
"Damn, the closing time has passed long ago, who cares so much!"
Guard A spat angrily and cursed fiercely. Guards B, B, and D also obviously had angry faces and felt the same way.
After guarding the gate all day, except for the few coarse wheat buns and half a catty of cornmeal at noon, several people now have nothing in their stomachs, and their tempers are indeed bad. In addition, there are people coming and going in Xiucheng, and ten of them can see enough.
Acceptable.
The four of them worked together, and the space between the bronze doors was only about three feet wide, and the sound of horse hooves got closer and closer.
I heard several horses neighing in alarm, and three black figures passed through the door at an extremely fast speed. The iron palms stepped on the stone road more crisply, and gradually moved away, leaving only four stunned guards.
"My mother!" Guard A wiped the envious drool that unconsciously flowed from his mouth: "Did you see it! Those horses are so handsome! When did I go get one of them, it became crazy...
...Ah! Scarlet B. Why the hell are you filming me!"
"What the hell! Just look at the horse for nothing. The horse is good, but who can you afford to mess with? Close the door and close the door. Now the Emperor is here. I won't let him go!"
Xiangxue and the others set out from Cuiluo Mountain ten days ago. They traveled almost non-stop. Today they finally arrived at Xiucheng. They are less than thirty miles away from Fanyi, the capital of the Western Wu Emperor. They will arrive in a few days.
"Miss Shangguan and Mr. Rong, they have only been on their way for the past few days. They are indeed a little neglectful of you two."
Yuan Yizhi reined in the reins, drove the horses to stop on the roadside, and turned around to say hello. He was worthy of being a young master from an aristocratic family. Even though he was exhausted from running around for days, his demeanor was not the least bit embarrassed. He was still polite and courteous. There was a hint of guilt on his lips.
