Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1078 Siege
  "Black Qilin?" When Tianming heard the name, he couldn't help but asked curiously, "What is this? Is it a person?"

Chen He didn't answer Tianming because he generally didn't like to popularize science for others.

Now, he had more of a vague premonition in his heart.

Black Qilin can be said to be the most difficult character in the Quicksand Intelligence System. Even White Phoenix and Black Crow are inferior to him. After all, birds are just trouble to deal with, but faceless people are often impossible to deal with.

Compared with his achievements in this area, Black Qilin's part-time job as a killer in Niqulisha could only be used to stretch his muscles and relax his mood.

Since Wei Zhuang has dispatched such a dangerous character, he must achieve certain key goals.

The machine city...maybe really in danger.

Although Chen He was not interested in meddling in other people's affairs, Chen He was in Guancheng after all, and he did not really want to see the anti-Qin conference end without a problem, and even the major anti-Qin forces suffered heavy losses as a result.

It’s okay to ignore this matter!
  "Tianming, please go back to your room and rest first. Don't run around. I will take care of it." Chen He came back to his senses and calmed the anxious child.

"No! I want to work with you to ask them to let uncle go." Tianming was not very happy to accept this arrangement.

But Chen He was very determined, "Be obedient, Tianming, you...can't help much."

"Just go back and wait with peace of mind. Remember not to leave the room... I remember that the rooms of you and Mr. Gai are next to each other, right?"

"Uh...right." Tianming lowered his head in despair and answered Chen He's last question.

After receiving confirmation, Chen He nodded, "Well, do as I say. I hope... everything will be fine."

In any case, Gai Nie's side is one of the safest places in the city, and Tianming's safety is absolutely guaranteed when he stays there.

What? You said Genie was locked up?
  Just kidding, is it possible that the Mo family can still dispose of the sword master's weapons? Or tie him up with chains as thick as his wrists?
  At most, it is just locked in the room. That stone door is not like a piece of tofu to Yuan Hong, so what use can it be!

After successfully sending the child back, Chen He also planned to leave.

Before leaving, he glanced at the small window in his room——

In the deep and dark sky, a white light gradually emerged.

Day, it is about to dawn.

………………

In the agency city, on the cliff corridor, Duan Murong, who had been free for the time being, was walking slowly, her cold eyebrows slightly furrowed, obviously she was a little lost in thought.

She was still wondering what was wrong with the central pool.

Logically speaking, there must be something wrong there, but she really couldn't detect any problem.

As the world-renowned Jinghu Medical Immortal, Duan Murong is not a proud and complacent person. She never thinks that her medical skills have truly reached the pinnacle.

Therefore, she felt that she had spent a long time looking at the pool but found nothing. It was not that there was nothing wrong with the pool water, but that she might have missed something.

But the question is, what was left out?

She has done various toxicity tests on the pool water, and the results are without exception that they are all non-toxic. She has even found someone to test the poison herself.

No matter whether he drank the water directly, or drank the water and then came into contact with other common things in the city, or ate and drank the daily meals provided in the city, no toxin reaction was triggered.

All evidence shows that this pool of water is still the same pool, and there is no problem.

But Duan Murong still insisted on her opinion. There must be something else that she hadn't noticed.

Just then, the light of dawn begins to bloom, and the long gloomy night fades away.

Looking at the sun disk rising bit by bit from the undulating ridge lines, Duan Murong's face suddenly turned pale, the pupils of his eyes suddenly dilated, and his whole body was trembling.

She finally understands!

The reason why she can't detect the toxins in the water at all, nor does it react with any substances in the human body, whether it's the rocks, grass and trees in the city, or the porridge, rice and soup, will have no effect. It’s because there is no poison in the water at all. All the water in Guan City is non-poisonous and you can drink it at will without any consequences!

Where toxins really exist is beyond water.

After Duan Murong figured everything out, she couldn't help but staggered a few steps and felt her eyes go dark.

The impact of the truth on her was a bit too great.

Then, Duan Murong, who had regained consciousness, immediately rushed out of the corridor without any hesitation.

She must find Gao Jianli as soon as possible and let him take precautions. Although she doesn't know if it's too late, but...she has only this choice now.

It's not too late to make amends, the only choice is fate.

At this time, Gao Jianli was no longer guarding the central pool.

The Qin army has launched an offensive, and he must arrange for the Mohist disciples to prepare for defense.

The Qin army mainly came from the direction of the back mountain, and he was naturally near the back mountain at this time.

Of course, he also witnessed the rising sun today.

And the snow girl was also on the side.

"I'm... a little worried. I always feel a little palpitated for some reason." Looking at the mountains, forests and rivers covered by the sun again, Xue Nu covered her heart with her left hand and said to Gao Jianli with a sad expression.

Gao Jianli had a grimace on his face, his brows were knitted together, and he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

However, this was not the time to undermine morale. He still held on and said, "It's okay. All defense lines have been manned. The Qin army will not succeed so easily."

"I hope so..." The snow girl looked into the distance and murmured softly.

………………

At this time, opposite the Mo family, on the other side of the mountain, densely packed Qin soldiers were carefully forcing their way through the forest area in front of them.

Almost every moment, a soldier fell into a trap and lost his life after letting out a panicked wailing.

There are also those who are lucky enough to not die on the spot and can still carry them back for a while.

But whether he can wait for treatment and whether he can be saved is another question.

After all, the quantity and quality of doctors in the military are there.

Of course, this is already very good. At least with Gu Xun's vigorous promotion, the Qin army is equipped with a certain number of accompanying military doctors who can provide a certain degree of treatment to the lower-level soldiers.

In the past, the distance between being injured and dying was actually not too far, or rather... very close.

Behind these soldiers, Han Xin and Zhong Limei, the chief and deputy generals, were watching all this silently.

Han Xin had an indifferent look on his face, and his smoky eyes were emotionless, while Zhong Limei's eyes were full of unbearability.

However, Zhong Limei also understands the principle of being kind but not wielding troops. He cannot bear to return, but he cannot stop taking action.

"The number of losses is more serious than I expected..." Han Xin's unique voice sounded without fluctuations, "Are the reserves ready?"

Zhong Limei nodded, "It's available at any time."

"Well... get ready to take over."

At this time, the forest was filled with corpses of the Qin army, and the number of casualties was at least five hundred.

An entire vanguard force of 1,000 people was suddenly killed and injured.
