Chapter 85 Bianzhou, chaos

There was silence on the street.The once bustling avenue was now deserted. The doors of the shops along the way were closed tightly, and the wooden signboards swayed gently in the wind, making a slight creaking sound.This voice seemed particularly clear and lonely in this empty street.

The originally bustling market now had only a few stray cats and dogs looking for food on street corners or doorways.

The buildings on both sides cast long shadows, and the sunlight shines through the gaps in the tall buildings and onto the ground, forming streaks of light and shadow, illuminating this quiet world.The bluestone pavement on the street looks particularly smooth due to the long-lost footsteps. Occasionally, a few falling leaves rotate on it, as if they are also looking for the lost life.

Although he guessed that such a situation might occur, the scene in front of him still made Su Jiming sigh.

The bandits have broken into the city and may kill and rob property at any time.

Such a rumor is enough to make people panic, not to mention that the government has also advanced the curfew time, directly verifying the authenticity of this rumor.

The merchants who came out to sell their stalls during the day were a little nervous, fearing that bandits would come out of nowhere. This rumor had only been fermenting for a day, and the appearance of Bianzhou City had already changed drastically.

"The Crown Prince, Bianzhou"

Nie Qian's voice sounded, pulling Su Jiming back from his thoughts on the tower.

He just glanced at Nie Qian who looked a little anxious next to him, then quickly withdrew his gaze, fell on the slightly lonely street, and asked:

"What do you say over there at the six doors?"

"They haven't contacted us yet."

Nie Qian seemed a little uneasy and said:
"Your Majesty, do you really not need me to call a few more people from the Night Attendant? The recent situation in Bianzhou."

Before he finished speaking, Su Jiming interrupted with a smile:

"Mr. Nie is confused if he is concerned. There are so many guards from the Sixth Realm who have been with me for hundreds of years. Perhaps no one in Bianzhou City is safer than me.

Unless the seventh realm is found again, it will only be the fifth realm. If it is the sixth realm, the improvement is really limited. "

There is no shortage of people under Su Jiming to work. If it is just to ensure safety, it is enough to have the help of a few sixth realms.

When Nie Qian heard this, she pursed her lips and said nothing.

"Have the night attendants found any information about the bandits?"

Su Jiming suddenly asked.

"No, but there are some discoveries over at Tingyu Pavilion."

Nie Qian paused for a moment and then slowly said:

"Yu Lingzhu contacted me and said that a group of suspicious people were recently found in Bianzhou, wandering near the south of the city. They may be related to the bandits."

"Oh?"

"This is what Tingyu Pavilion concluded. The group of people flowing through the area in Bianzhou were very alert, and there were also some high-level people among them. In order to avoid alerting the enemy, Tingyu Pavilion did not send anyone to follow them."

After hearing this, Su Jiming has determined that the "suspicious" people noticed by Tingyu Pavilion are the bandits, or at least have a certain relationship with the bandits.

After all, there are only so many people in the Fifth Realm in Bianzhou City, "strangers" who can make Tingyuge's spies worry about being exposed. Various conditions have limited the candidates to a very small range.

"What do you think they will do?" Nie Qian asked.

In her opinion, these bandits from the Southern Region will not show up in a short time.One is that the whole city is under martial law, and the other is that from their own purposes, the longer they hide in the dark, the greater their impact will be on Bianzhou.

Su Jiming took the credo recording the location of the "suspicious person" recorded in Nie Qian's hand and said:
"Bring all the night attendants from Bianzhou with you."

"What do you mean?" Nie Qian was a little unsure.

Su Jiming put away the creed and said:
"It's time to get there first."

In a hidden corner, a faint light leaked from the crack of a dilapidated door, and a cold breath rushed towards the door, making people shudder.

In the dim room, only a few flickering candles cast weak light.The mold spots on the corners, the wooden floors that made strange noises, and the peeling paint on the walls all pointed to the age and desolation of this place.Under the candlelight, a large wooden table in the center of the room was highlighted, with some maps and weapons scattered on it.

Around this table, seven or eight rough men were sitting. They were all tall, with long beards on their faces, and sharp and fierce eyes.Their clothes are shabby, and the stains and scars on their bodies reveal their incompatibility with the world and their often dangerous lives.

One of the middle-aged men with beards and scars picked up a map and tapped it gently with rough fingers. His voice was low and hoarse:
"Tulums, this operation must be successful in one strike. There can be no more mistakes."

A younger gangster next to him lit a pipe, blew out circles of smoke, and said with a sneer:
"Those Central Plains bastards probably won't even think of our plan before they die."

In the corner of the room, a man dressed in black sat quietly. He did not participate in the discussion, but stared coldly at the magic weapon on the table. He was the leader of this group of bandits.

What was in front of him was a magic weapon used to communicate with the Southern Territory.

"Miss Xu, we have arranged the formation according to your plan. When will we start taking action?"

The magic weapon lights up and a line of words appears.

[This is the offensive route, the Bianzhou garrison, and the six-door patrol distribution map. Do as I say]

Immediately afterwards, a map emerged from above the magic weapon.

[Remember, this message cannot be seen by anyone, and the magic weapon will be destroyed after the purpose is completed. 】

[The action is tonight, I will let the secrets inside the six doors hold them back]

The lines of words gradually dispersed, and the bandit leader put away his magic weapon and looked at the other bandits.

"Time to act, Tulums."

As soon as the words fell, a murderous aura suddenly arose.

The moon was sparse and there were few stars, so it was a peaceful night.

However, a sudden explosion broke the peace.

The residents in Bianzhou City followed the movement and looked outside, but they saw an extremely horrifying scene.

Beneath the city wall, flames instantly shot up into the sky, dancing like bunches of bright fire dragons. Their flames licked the sky, and their light almost covered the moon in the distance. It seemed to tear the night apart and push the deep night directly into dawn.

The roars were deafening, followed by a rain of debris, hitting the city walls, land and nearby buildings.Sparks and smoke intertwined to form a huge ring of fire. A large amount of dust and smoke were stirred up, blocking the view, and only chaos could be seen.

From everywhere, sounds of commotion could be heard. On the city wall, the soldiers guarding the city looked pale, and the weapons in their hands could hardly be held steady due to the huge vibration.

——The turmoil began.
