Sword God Wine Ancestor

Chapter 874
After Zhao Wuji knew that Mr. Lu had left, he also reacted quickly, and quickly found the general, but he found that the general was tied up and hung in the midair of his own well!Moreover, the general didn't know what happened before, and he didn't know how he was hung in the well, so the matter could not be traced any further, so he had to let it go.

After understanding what happened, Su Bai didn't say anything more, but asked, "What's the old man's plan in the future?"

Mr. Lu's expression suddenly became a little lonely, and he said after a long while: "I said before that I was returning to my hometown. Now that I have left Shangjing, I will go and have a look. I don't know what's going on there now."

Su Bai pondered for a moment, then nodded, in the current situation, Zhao Wuji has no time to care about Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu can go wherever he wants.

Xiao Wu said, "The old man's hometown is Suzhou?"

Mr. Lu smiled and said, "Yes, it is a small county in Suzhou. The scenery is pretty good. There is a small river outside the city. I used to catch fish in the river when I was young! I don't know if the small river is still there now."

There was a look of reminiscence in the eyes of old man Lu, and Su Bai suddenly felt that old man Lu seemed to have aged a lot in an instant. He felt that this might be related to the upcoming collapse of the Wu Dynasty. He had been an official all his life, and now he looked at the court he was loyal to , if the loyal emperor is gone, I still have some thoughts in my heart.

Xiao San smiled and said, "Then I'll go with Grandpa. Speaking of which, I haven't seen what my hometown looks like yet! Brother Su, what are your plans with Xiao Wu?"

Su Bai thought for a while and said, "Find a place to retreat and practice."

Hearing what he said, several people were stunned, Xiaosan helped his forehead and said: "Brother Su, now that your martial arts have reached this level, do you still need to retreat and practice? Do you want other people to live? Or do you want to see?" Now that I am about to break through to the innate realm, are you worried that I will really surpass you?"

Xiao Wu also said: "Xiaobai, you don't have to work so hard, do you? Or is it really important to you to be number one in the world?"

Su Bai's thoughts were of course unclear to several people, and he didn't say it clearly, he just smiled and said, "Wu Wu Zhi Boundless! But little third brother, even if you reach the innate level, you are not my opponent."

Regarding Su Bai's non-answer answer, Xiao San and Xiao Wu could tell that he didn't want to talk, so they didn't ask any more questions. Of course, Su Bai had the highest martial arts among the three, and Xiao San was next. The strength is about the same as that of Xiao Wu, but Xiao San has been cultivating in the mountains for the past two years, and now he is about to break through to the innate realm.

And because Xiao Wu is in the army, he hasn't practiced much in the past two years, and because he has a family, his heart for practicing martial arts has faded a bit, so his martial arts is much behind that of Xiao San. Now it seems that the other party seems to be He really didn't pursue martial arts anymore, so he couldn't understand Su Bai's decision to retreat and practice martial arts. He thought that Su Bai should have some obsession with being number one in the world.

Su Bai turned to Xiao Wu and asked, "Little Wu brother, what are your plans for the future?"

Xiao Wu looked a little confused, slowly shook his head and said: "Let's see and talk, I don't know what's going on with Grandpa now."

Su Bai was stunned for a moment, and only then did he think about Old General Ji. He even forgot to ask Dongfang Kong Liang what was going on with Old General Ji before!

But on another thought, since the second and fifth princes were able to escape from Chang'an City in an instant and return to Shangjing, General Ji would be fine, and he should be in Shangjing now. Where will Old General Ji go?You won't really choose to live and die with the Wu Dynasty, right?

Xiao Wu probably had similar ideas, so he couldn't make up his mind.

Su Bai sighed: "Little fifth brother, you don't have to worry. In fact, the four thousand-year-old families have no intention of killing the Wu Dynasty court. As long as they are willing to surrender, no matter who they are, they will accept it, and the four thousand-year-old families will take the throne. In the future, it will still be the Eleventh Prince who ascends to the throne of God, and it will still be the Wu Dynasty, so I don’t think Old General Ji will be overwhelmed.”

Xiao Wuqiang smiled and said, "Xiao Bai, you don't need to say much, I understand everything."

Su Bai didn't say anything more, but they lost interest in chatting and went back to rest.

The next day, Mr. Lu's family left and went to Mr. Lu's hometown. There was a mistress there, so there was no problem in terms of safety.

After waiting for a day, Su Bai also left this small town and rushed to the "Buried Sword Valley". Now that the Wu Dynasty is about to perish, and the whole world will fall into the hands of four thousand-year-old families, the "Five Elements Origin Pearl" is no accident. The words will be found one after another. This is the last moment of restarting the road of Qi training. He must improve his strength as soon as possible to reach the peak!

What Su Bai didn't know was that on the second day after he left, the four thousand-year-old families launched an offensive against Shangjing, and there was no ingenious plan, just a sneak attack at night, which was a real trick, and it was eaten all over the world!

The coolness of the night in early summer drives away the sweltering heat of the day. On the tall and generous walls of Shangjing, there is a soldier standing guard every few meters. Just don’t look at these soldiers standing straight, but some of them are dozing off. Dozing off while standing upright is indeed a skill. I think the spear in his hand must have played a big role.

Of course, the reason for this situation is also related to the current strict security. After all, there are so many soldiers, even if many of them doze off, can others not find out?Besides, in addition to these soldiers standing guard, there are also patrol personnel who are constantly walking back and forth. A group of patrol personnel will pass by almost every quarter of an hour.

Especially today, when the moon and stars were sparse, there were not even any clouds in the night sky, and the city was not completely dark, and even a touch of whiteness could be seen.

"Old Zhang, you are here!"

A general defending the city saw a group of soldiers coming from the bottom of the city. The leader was also a general in armor. He knew each other, his name was Zhang Jiantao, and he came to change shifts with him.

Zhang Jiantao was a middle-aged man with a cocky eyebrow. He hummed in a muffled voice and said, "Okay, Lao Li, go and rest! It's my turn in the middle of the night."

Lao Li grinned and said, "Okay, nothing seems to be going on tonight, but don't take a nap, His Majesty has been in a bad mood recently, don't get caught as a pigtail!"

Lao Zhang smiled and said, "You think I'm you? I like to sleep every now and then!"

"Haha, okay, I just want to remind you to drink together during the break!"

Lao Li laughed, waved to Lao Zhang, and led his soldiers down towards the city wall. Halfway through, he suddenly realized that something was wrong. Although Lao Zhang had a good relationship with him before, it seemed that he hadn't. So many words, right?And there seems to be something wrong with the laughter, too.

It's just that he didn't think too much, shook his head, yawned, thinking of Xiao Taohong from "Yichun Courtyard", he immediately became more energetic and quickened his pace.

Zhang Jiantao took over Lao Li's shift, and he was indeed patrolling meticulously. He was in charge of the northern city wall, and it took half an hour to walk back and forth, so he only needed to patrol twice a night. Anyway, there were other soldiers patrolling. .

After walking through it once, Zhang Jiantao went to the city tower, poured himself a cup of tea, and looked down the city wall, but instead of being distracted, his attention was very concentrated, and he didn't know what he was looking at.

It was precisely because of this that when he put the teacup down, he didn't pay attention to his arm, and suddenly knocked down the lamp next to it. The paper lampshade was directly ignited by the candle inside, and soon a bright flame lit up.

Only then did Zhang Jiantao come to his senses, and hurriedly stomped out the fire on the ground, and then someone brought a new lamp and lit it.

Then Zhang Jiantao sat back to his previous position, still staring at the city wall, as if there was something there.

About two quarters of an hour later, what Zhang Jiantao looked at was originally pitch black, but suddenly two green lights lit up, just like the eyes of a wolf in the dark, but these two green lights are too bright, logically speaking, It was at least three or four miles away from the city wall. If it was really a wolf's eyes, they shouldn't be able to see so clearly.

The two dots of green light were on for about two breaths, then went out, and then turned on again after three breaths, and this cycle was repeated three times before they really disappeared.

Seeing this situation, Zhang Jiantao clenched his fists instantly, a gleam flashed in his eyes, he exhaled a long breath, and after gathering his mind, he got up and left the tower, and then walked back and forth on the city wall.

This is not surprising, after all, he is a general defending the city, so he can't just sit in the room all the time, even if he doesn't patrol the entire city wall, he still has to go out for a walk, and sitting all the time can easily make him sleepy!
Zhang Jiantao strolled for two incense sticks, and just in front of the steps leading down the city wall, he stopped suddenly, and said to the soldiers behind him, "I'm going to the hut, you don't have to follow."

As he spoke, he went down towards the city wall, and the soldiers behind him stayed where they were obediently, without moving.

Just after Zhang Jiantao walked down the city wall, outside the quiet city wall, there was a sudden bang!

In fact, the noise was not that loud, it was only because the night was too quiet that it seemed a little loud. The sound came suddenly, and the soldiers also felt a little familiar, but for a while they couldn't figure out what it was.

Just when they were a little bit confused, they suddenly saw a dot of fire flashing into their eyes. It was only the size of a star bean at first, but the fire quickly magnified and reached them. Then the expressions of the soldiers changed drastically. The look of horror, because they saw clearly what it was, it was countless burning sharp arrows!

They also finally understood why the sound was a little familiar before, it was simply the trembling sound of countless bowstrings being pulled!

It's just that they understood it a little too late, the arrows shot into their bodies without giving them any time to react, and there was a burst of puff puff sound on the city wall, and most of the soldiers standing guard disappeared in an instant!

These arrows are obviously aimed at these soldiers. Of course, because they are rockets, they are still burning after being inserted into the ground, especially when they hit something that can burn, the burning is more intense, and the city wall suddenly turns red. one slice.

"Enemy attack!"

The soldiers who escaped by chance immediately realized what had happened, roared wildly, and someone rang the alarm gong, and the sleeping soldiers in the city woke up suddenly, the enemy attacked!How could the enemy launch an attack without warning in such a matter!And hearing the sound of killing, the enemy has all arrived outside the city gate!What do the soldiers on guard do?
"Assemble! Go to the city wall! Even if you die, you can't lose the city wall!"

"Block the city gates! Get more people, logs and stones, block them all for me!"

A general is neatly dressed and keeps giving orders. He is not a general on guard and patrolling, but looking at him, he is obviously wearing armor while sleeping. It seems that there are still some loyal soldiers in the Wu Dynasty who really want to keep the capital. of.

Just when the general gave the order, he saw the north city gate in the distance suddenly opened, and the sound of rumbling horseshoes sounded, and he was about to rush into the city!

His face changed greatly, but his heart was full of puzzlement, how could this happen!Why did the enemy come so fast, and why did the city gate open!
But less than a stick of incense, Zhang Jiantao, who was going to go to the hut, came to the city gate. The city gate is the most important thing. There are hundreds of soldiers guarding it here, and no matter who it is, it cannot be missed Zhang Jiantao approached the gate for no reason, and Zhang Jiantao was no exception, so seeing Zhang Jiantao coming, a general below immediately walked towards him, and many soldiers also made preparations for defense.

"Who is it? Stop!" the general shouted, and said to Zhang Jiantao.

But Zhang Jiantao didn't answer, the fire flashed across his face, but he found that his appearance was not the original Zhang Jiantao at all, this was a face that was older than Zhang Jiantao's. At this moment, this man's eyes were full of murderous intent, and he pulled out his waist instantly. The long sword in the middle, a sword swung out, the sword light flashed, and the general was decapitated!
Seeing that the situation was not right, the soldiers immediately wanted "Zhang Jiantao" to rush over, but "Zhang Jiantao" was even faster, and went directly to the crowd to start the killing ring, and from the shadows beside him, a dozen masters suddenly appeared, and rushed towards them. The soldiers rushed to kill, and even among these soldiers, a few of them actually attacked their own people!

After repeated ruthless blows, this group of soldiers didn't even hold on for a few breaths before being chased and killed by these martial arts masters.

This was also the time when bows and arrows sounded outside the city, and the time was so fast that the soldiers on the city wall didn't even notice the situation at the city gate!
"Zhang Jiantao" and those martial arts masters did not hesitate at all. Their division of labor was very clear. Some cut off the ropes and lowered the suspension bridge, while others cut off the crossbars. After that, the sound of horseshoes sounded outside the city soon, and they rushed into the city!
