Chapter 437: Preparing to Attack
The old master nodded, "Well, of course I remember, the mechanism formation is divided into two major formations, the guardian position and the attack position, this guardian position...... Yes? Black Mother, do you mean ......"
Halfway through his words, the old master suddenly realized that he stood still with his mouth open.
Hei Mu gave him a thumbs up and praised him rarely: "Master and Teacher are old and strong, and his memory is really good!" Moon Shadow's attack position is an active stone sculpture, while the guardian position is located on the ground in a checkerboard route. As you may have noticed, the map of Chang'an City is set up like a big chessboard, with one hundred and eight square markets neatly distributed on the board, and this kind of urban design has advantages and disadvantages, which is not only conducive to management, but also not very conducive to strategic defense. Because it's so regular, it's easy to give the enemy a loophole to hold on to 10,000! ”
The old master said thoughtfully: "That tower is close to the Qixia Gate, next to it is the Qujiang Pool, if the Wave Changing Moon Shadow Formation needs to go from the waterway and rise to the ground from the bottom of the water, it will just meet the requirements of the terrain!" ”
Since even Mengqi could see that the tower was moving, the old master had to believe the old master's words if he didn't believe it, so he was extremely nervous.
Hei Mu said: "It seems that the king of Cangluo has indeed made a move in advance, and is now arranging the formation." That Qujiang Tower is the first place in the capital to make a movement, and it is difficult to say that it is the eye of the machine array. Compared to the one that Lu Ban No. 7 broke into with hairy fish, the structure of this wave change moon shadow array is much more complicated and difficult to deal with! The place under the ancestral hall is small, and the attack position is easy to determine, but in the open air of the city, it is unpredictable, and we are afraid that we will be unable to guard against it! ”
Mengqi whined: "Brother Hei, I don't know the mechanism formation, I can only guess what I say, if you say something wrong, don't laugh at me!" ”
The black mother said impatiently: "Hey, where is so much nonsense! Say it quickly, and if it's wrong, I'll think I didn't hear it! ”
Mengqi grinned and said, "I'm not as pessimistic as you Brother Hei, I think it's better to be in the open than underground." The underground environment is sealed, but whenever someone enters, the breath on the body may touch the mechanism, and Xiao Qi finally passed the level by breaking in with his divine sense. We are now on the ground, full of popularity everywhere, and there is cover everywhere, so we are free to move, and there is no need to be afraid of being detected by Cangluo! ”
Hei Mu was just about to speak, but the old master said it for him: "Well, Mengqi's analysis is not unreasonable, but it can't be looked at in such a general way. The target of the king of Cangluo is the entire Chang'an City, and there is no specific person, so Chang'an City is a whole in his eyes, he has set up a position in the city, on the surface, we can find out one by one, but these have to be classified as Ming organs, Mengqi, Xiao Qi once mentioned the dark mechanism, it is really a threat that we can't guard against! ”
"Ah...... Dark Trap! "Meng Qiru woke up from a dream, his hairy fat face drooped down, "The dark mechanism can be water and fire, but it can be rigid or soft, with the function of transfiguration, not only the whereabouts are unpredictable, but also can destroy the human spirit like a ghost, so it is called 'shadow', and it is the projection ...... of the Ming machine in another world."
Hei Mu listened to Mengqi repeat Luban No. 7's description of the trap array, and she felt creepy early in the morning. The upcoming battle must be difficult, this King of Cangluo can not only reach into the King Continent from a distant other world, but also know how to use the highest level of mechanism, how terrifying is this!
The old master asked Hei Mu: "I said, are we still following Brother Meng and those people to check whether the citizens are all staying at home?" Or ......"
Hei Mu replied without frowning: "According to the location pointed out by Luban No. 7, the lake of Hongzhai is extremely close to Qujiang Tower, and all signs indicate that the starting point of Cangluo's attack is that area, let's go over there!" Mengqiruo and I are not mistaken, Luban No. 7 is only afraid that it will know before us, but I am afraid that people are already there! ”
The old master and Mengqi had no objection to the black mother's suggestion, and the three of them hurried away from Anhuamen and rushed towards Qixiamen.
Let's talk about other places in Chang'an City. This prosperous capital city has a total of 18 large and small city gates. The opening time varies every day, the earliest is Anhua Gate, Mingde Gate and Qixia Gate, and the latest is Xuanwu Gate and Xuande Gate, just because the latter two are connected with the imperial city, and the security is particularly strict.
But on this day, as soon as the hour arrived, the eighteen city gates rumbled open in unison, and the "people" who were guarding outside the city, waiting to enter the city to do business, entered in an orderly manner, and the number of people was much higher than before.
The officers and soldiers defending the city did not stop them, they all turned a blind eye, and even the inspection of the documents entering the city was much looser. Needless to ask, these so-called people are all dressed up as guards of the Great Wall, and Su Lie received the news from Zhong Kui that the battle was in advance, so he immediately began to deploy in the city.
The Xuanwu Gate leads directly to the imperial city, and the defense is the most tight, but there are at least 500 merchants there, and these people did not go to the market after entering the city, but went straight to the palace and began to strictly organize the royal family personnel to enter the temple.
There is no etiquette to talk about, the actual meaning of the so-called ancestor worship is to flee, the palace up and down action is called a swift, and the room is empty everywhere without much effort, leaving only some miscellaneous eunuchs and palace maids to make a look.
The emperor's guard of honor drove to the Taimiao, but it was not the real emperor who was sitting in the Luan car with a dragon and a phoenix, the real one, who had already led a group of imperial relatives and nobles to hide in the underground fortress, planning to stay there until it was safe and then come out.
After last night's Anhuamen trouble, Jin Shengtang was destroyed, both Cangluo and Tianbianxing were alarmed, Zhong Kui thought that there was no need to play in the imperial city anymore, Luan drove wherever he wanted, and the king of Cangluo was afraid that it would be too late to start the poison bomb to attack the imperial city.
Luban No. 7 had already seen what the poison bomb looked like, and found out the way of the Cangluo King's array through the mechanism array in Jinshengtang, so the first stop to defuse the bomb was the Imperial City, and all the forty-one poison bombs found there were taken away and destroyed.
Luban No. 7 has limited strength and cannot be found everywhere in a short period of time, so the task of protecting the people can only be handed over to Dunshan. He didn't know that Dunshan had torn Hong Wei apart in the Anhua Gate Tower, and because of this, he touched the demons in his heart and almost caused a catastrophe, otherwise he should blame himself very much.
Fortunately, Dunshan got through the difficulties with the help of Hei Mu and the other three people, and rushed to Fang City in time. So just after two o'clock, on the top of the one hundred and eight square markets, green light towers began to appear one after another.
The most shocking thing for Luban No. 7 and feeling incredible, but quite happy, was that there were many people in black in the streets and alleys, these people were as many as black sesame seeds sprinkled with white flour cakes, and although they shouted fiercely, the people were huddled at home under their coercion, and no one dared to go out. The reason why the man in black made a fuss was that some citizens violated the curfew last night and ran into the streets to make trouble, resulting in the whole people being grounded today and not allowed to go out all day!
