Chapter 33: The Burning of the City
To achieve great things for the king, you should not be confined to small sections, as the so-called success will be successful, what is the obstacle of sacrificing the untouchables?
At this time, the Arrowhog had already entered the city, and the soldiers on the city wall could not stop the Arrowhog army like a flood even if they shot all the arrows and crossbows in their hands. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The soldiers on the city wall are in chaos, why has the general's standing army not appeared so far? The Arrowheads have all entered the city, and the outer city will fall completely in this way, and the villagers are being murdered.
The soldiers in the city have almost no chance of winning against the Arrowhog, and it usually takes at least three people to deal with an adult Arrowhog, not to mention that it is now the elite of the Arrowhog? Or a few heads against a few people.
The commander on the city wall already felt that there was no need to hold on to the city wall, the enemy had all been killed, what else was outside? So he ordered: "Everyone obeys the order, the lives of our villagers and elders are in our hands, and we want to protect them, and all of them will be killed with me." ”
After Wu Chang finished speaking, he just rushed down with the people, but he didn't expect a black shadow to flash, and a horn arrow was already pierced through his chest, and he died instantly; Although the soldiers were terrified when they saw Wu Chang's death, they also developed the courage to see death as home, and more than a dozen steel knives beckoned to the black shadow.
However, the Heavenly Hermit and Cao Zhuo were under the city wall on the other side, and the Heavenly Hermit followed Cao Zhuo and asked, "Where is Brother Cao going now?" ”
"Go home." Cao Zhuo didn't reply.
Go home? Why are you going home again? Why do the beasts and people you meet want to go home? Do they have treasures in their homes? The hermit was puzzled.
Along the way, both Tianyinke and Cao Zhuo turned a blind eye to the murder of the old and weak women and children by the arrow stabbing pigs, and rushed to Cao Zhuo's house in a hurry; Corpses everywhere, fireworks everywhere, and the smell of roasted meat.
After smelling the smell, Cao Zhuo swallowed his saliva and said, "Brother, this meat doesn't smell fragrant." ”
"Hmph, not as well as me." The hermit then replied. But he was suddenly startled, and his back was cold. What does this Cao Zhuo mean? Tianyin Ke just reacted, so someone will be barbecuing now? It is clear that the uncontrollable fire has spread to the dead.
"However, it's better to have human flesh alive, and it's not good to have human flesh." Cao Zhuo said to himself.
But there were six arrowheads and stabbing pigs eyeing the Sky Hermit and Cao Zhuo; Cao Zhuo didn't look back before he realized it, and reminded the hermit of the sky, "We are being targeted."
Soon after, the Heavenly Hermit heard the sound of hooves running on the ground, and had to admire Cao Zhuo's ability to perceive.
Cao Zhuo and Tianyin both saw a woman running on the opposite side, and the woman's face was full of panic, crying as she ran; At the same time, it was also discovered that there was an arrow pig chasing after the woman. Suddenly, the woman saw Cao Zhuo running away, her face showed a hint of joy, and she shouted, "Uncle Cao save me." ”
Cao Zhuo ran close to the woman and said with a smile: "Okay, save you." ”
Click, crisp, in a hurry, the hermit didn't notice how Cao Zhuo made a move, but the woman fell heavily to the ground when she passed by Cao Zhuo.
And the archery pig who was chasing after him was also stunned when he saw this, but Cao Zhuo punched the void in the direction of the arrowhead pig, and the arrowhead pig flew out like a broken kite like a heavy blow, and was bombarded into the wall of the house without the slightest struggle.
Cao Zhuo stopped and looked at the Tianyin Ke with a look of surprise and said, "Little brother, don't mind, these people are all innocent of death, and all the people of the Gaochang Royal Court deserve to die." ”
"Brother Cao misunderstood, I was surprised by your punch just now."
"Oh, is this it? I thought it was...... Hehe, the punch just now is the strength of the fist. ”
At the moment when the two of them stopped, six archery pigs had already collided.
Cao Zhuo looked at the hermit with a meaningful smile.
Tianyinke also knew that Cao Zhuo wanted to see his own strength. So his right hand gathered his internal strength, his eyes showed a fierce light, and he used the night slash against the six arrows and stabbing pigs that rushed in. The six archholes were split in two, and all the guts fell out.
"Hiss" Cao Zhuo gasped, this guy is very much to his liking, he is ruthless in his shots, and he is also ruthless, he is a material for Jinyi Wei.
After solving the Arrow Pig, the Sky Hermit surprisingly found that he had killed six Arrow Pigs, and he didn't have any experience at all, although he didn't know why he had no experience, but the Sky Hermit still hurriedly followed Cao Zhuo to Cao's house.
When the two of them just rushed into the door of Cao Zhuo's house, they suddenly heard a few booms, huge sounds, and the ground shook a few times; The Heavenly Hermit looked at Cao Zhuo with a surprised expression, and Cao Zhuo muttered, "It won't be to put down the Broken City Stone, right?" ”
The broken city stone, the mechanism stone of the four gates of the Gaochang King City, once this stone is put down, it will not be able to be opened; After the craftsman makes this stone into a diamond shape, special processes and materials are added to refine it into a solid stone wall that does not hurt the sword and does not break the internal strength.
Cao Zhuo's face changed drastically, and the hermit shouted "quick" and rushed into the house.
The hermit also hurriedly followed Cao Zhuo into the house and closed the door, only to find that Cao Zhuo was rummaging through the cabinets, and soon found a set of armor for the hermit to hold.
After taking the armor, the Sky Hermit realized that the texture of the armor must be very good, because it was heavy. The hermit was happy in his heart, there was a task reward so soon? No wonder the six pigs were inexperienced just now, and they were just about to say thank you Cao Zhuo.
Cao Zhuo took the first step and said, "Quick, let me put on the armor." ”
What the? Didn't you want to give it to me for a long time?
Cao Zhuo looked at the Heavenly Hermit and said, "Hey, this armor is too heavy, and it is inconvenient for you to wear it." ”
"I, I can."
But he was snatched by Cao Zhuo. Wearing armor and a waist knife, Cao Zhuo really has the majestic momentum of a deputy general.
Finding that the face of the hermit was a little unnatural, Cao Zhuo opened his mouth and said, "When the time comes, as long as you are willing, little brother, I will find you a better set of armor." ”
"Definitely." Tianyinke's face was full of joy, and at the same time, he also noticed Cao Zhuo's knife, the Tang knife system, Cao Zhuo also specially pulled it out to show Tianyinke, the blade turned out to be golden?
Jinyi Wei with a knife, Tianchao Wei knife, with gold and stone after thousands of tempering, sharpening iron like mud, only Jinyi Wei more than 100 households with this knife.
Celestial Guardian Knife: Attack 7000, 10% trigger to sharpen iron like mud (limited to iron casting weapons), dedicated to Jinyi Guard.
This knife is good, the attack is so high, it makes the hermit drool a little; Cao Zhuo smiled with satisfaction and said, "If you want, I can give it to you, but there is still one thing to do now." ”
"What's the matter?"
"Enter the palace."
"Kill King Gaochang?"
Cao Zhuo shook his head and said: "If you kill a King of Gaochang, there will be a King of Gaochang, we have to take the Xiliang Jade Seal, otherwise it is useless to take the head of a King of Gaochang." ”
After hearing Cao Zhuo's words, Tianyinke felt a little questioned: "If we take away the jade seal, then they won't make one?" ”
Cao Zhuo laughed: "It seems that you don't understand what a jade seal is, the jade seal is unique, it represents a symbol of a country, if the Xiliang Kingdom loses the heirloom jade seal, then no one in the Xiliang royal family will be willing to flatter others as kings, and then the entire Xiliang Kingdom will be torn apart." ”
"Without further ado, let's go." The Sky Hermit is really hungry for equipment.
The hermit followed Cao Zhuo to grope towards the imperial city, and every time Cao Zhuo could find the traces of the arrowheads or the Xiliang soldiers in advance, and successfully avoided them, but for the Xiliang soldiers and Xiliang people he encountered, Cao Zhuo would send them on the road mercilessly, and the Tianyi hermit also had a cold face.
Shadow Porcupine ran to the Porcupine King and said, "Oh no, my lord, they have sealed the gates. ”
"Hmph, if it's sealed, it's sealed, is it possible that they dare to set fire to the city?" After the Porcupine King finished speaking, he suddenly noticed that there was some unusual commotion underground.
On the other side, Cao Zhuo and the Sky Hermit also felt that something seemed to be rolling underground, and the feeling became stronger and stronger, as if something was about to break through the ground.
The hermit cast a puzzled look at Cao Zhuo, but this time Cao Zhuo also looked suspicious, which showed that Cao Zhuo didn't know what was going on.
As the shaking beneath the ground grew louder and louder, the Porcupine King felt uneasy and ordered Shadow Porcustar, "Drill down and see what the hell is going on." "This is the first time that the Porcupine King has given an order to the Shadow Porcupine.
Shadow Porcupine didn't say a word before disappearing into the shadow, seeping into the ground.
Soon after, a black shadow burst out of the ground with a ball of fire.
The Porcupine King was startled, took a few steps back, and was on guard.
"Withdraw from the city with all your troops, my lord." The Shadow Porcupine kept rolling on the ground and wailing, but could not extinguish the flames on his body.
The Porcupine King hurriedly ordered people to go and find water.
When the Shadow Porcupine heard this, he was shocked, stood up with the burning pain on his body, and cried loudly: "My lord, the ground is full of molten slurry, and now it is rolling upwards, so let's go." ”
The Porcupine King's face changed greatly, and he shouted: "All the brothers are out of the city, and none of them are allowed to stay here." The sound was loud and echoed through the city.
The Xiliang soldiers who were still resisting also heard the words of the Porcupine King, and they were overjoyed, could it be that the reinforcements are coming? One of the Xiliang army commanders raised his big sword in his hand and said, "Brothers, they want to ...... reinforcements when they come."
But before he finished speaking, he was melted by the molten slurry that shot out of the ground.
The nearest soldier beside him was also affected, and the other soldiers froze after looking at the molten slurry that shot out of the ground, and even the soldiers who were fighting with the Arrowhog were also stunned and did not react at all, and the Arrowhog quickly fled after seeing this.
The Porcupine King looked at the Shadow Porcupine covered in flames, but he didn't have the slightest solution, his heart seemed to be scorched by flames, and he roared angrily: "Why hasn't the water been found yet?" ”
"Oh no, my lord, the stone wall of the city gate is extremely strong, and the horn arrows and ramming have no effect at all." A Porcupine hastily ran to the Porcupine King to pray.
"The king should take his brothers with him, do you want to watch all his brothers die here?" Shadow Porcupine roared out once again with all his strength, as never before, and for the first time, Shadow Porcupine roared at the Porcupine King.
"In the next life, I still want you to be my brother." After saying this, the Porcupine King turned around and ran towards the city gate with the Arrow Pig beside him, and tears spilled out of his eyes.
Brothers? When I am ......
The entire Xiliang Outer City was full of molten lava erupting from the ground, and Tianhermit Ke and Cao Zhuo were also avoiding the molten lava.
Tianyinke scolded: "MD, what kind of person is it, who actually thought of burning the city, such a vicious method." ”
"Hey, so brother, you also think this is a trap set by someone on purpose."
The Heavenly Hermit said with an indignant face: "Then it is so coincidental that today the Arrow Pig came to attack the city, and the underground molten slurry broke out?" ”
"Yes, no one would build the royal city on molten lava that erupted at some point, unless it was deliberately buried underground...... Organ. Cao Zhuo said silently.
"General, even if we ignore the residents of the city, we still have 60,000 brothers in the outer city to resist the enemy." A general beside the great general Qu Zhou said sadly.
Qu Zhou closed his eyes and said lightly: "They won't die in vain." The hands on the battlements clenched into fists and snapped.
At this time, dozens of molten lava can be seen spraying like fountains, burning corpses and houses.
