Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1188 Dangerous situation in the city ()
  "It turns out...it's true..." In a dark corner of the hall passage, Mo Ya watched the dust-settled Zongheng battle. He was shocked by its twists and turns and murmured softly to himself.

Gu Xun stood next to him, heard the repeated words he muttered, and asked casually, "What's wrong? What did you remember?"

"Oh..." Mo Ya nodded towards Gu Xun, "Before, Mr. Wei Zhuang had talked with his subordinates, saying that Mr. You once said that Yuan Hong was the worst quality among the famous swords ranked high in the sword manual. .”

"Originally, my subordinates didn't quite understand why you said that, but now... at least it has been proven that what you said is right."

"So he has talked about this with you." Gu Xun pursed his lips and explained carefully, "Yuanhong's quality problems actually stem from the way it was born."

"You mean... Can Hong was recast?" Mo Ya guessed the answer after hearing the beginning.

Gu Xun nodded, "At that time, Ying Zheng ordered the best craftsmen of the Qin State to tan the metal and recast the Can Hong Can Sword used by Jing Ke to assassinate Qin. This was also the suggestion I gave him to get rid of Can Hong's strangeness. Vicious."

"However, the material of Canhong itself is too special. The craftsmen of Qin State have no understanding of it and the processing is not up to standard."

"A slight mistake can lead to a mistake of a thousand miles. The Yuanhong recast under such circumstances will naturally have great hidden dangers. Today, Wei Zhuang just seized the right opportunity."

"That's it." Mo Ya nodded repeatedly after hearing this, and all the doubts in his heart were cleared, "If you hadn't told me, who would have thought that Yuan Hong, who ranks second in the swordsmanship, would have such a hidden danger!"

"It was only because I had actually come into contact with Can Hong that I was able to discover Yuan Hong's problems. Otherwise..." Gu Xun chuckled, "This problem is hidden too deep, Feng Beard, Xu Fuzi and both of them are Master Xiangjian, but they didn’t realize that I am no better than the two of them.”

After making a few casual comments, Gu Xun began to think about retreating and no longer wanted to watch in secret, "Okay, let's go."

"What happens next, let's..." Mo Ya was stunned when he heard the words. He felt that he was walking a little abruptly, so he subconsciously asked one more question.

Gu Xun had turned around, facing away from him and waved his hand, "There's nothing worth caring about anymore, let's go."

"I came here just to see the ending of Yuan Hong's collapse and Gai Nie's serious injury. The rest is not important."

"Oh..." Mo Ya responded softly, then glanced back at the sword master lying on the ground in the distance, turned around and asked, "Sir, Gai Nie... will be buried in this machine city today. ?"

"Ha!" Gu Xun chuckled, shook his head simply, and even asked Mo Ya, "Why do you think so?"

"Of course Genie won't die here, he will die today."

"This just represents the end of the Zongheng War. Although it is not the real end, but... that's about it."

"Then Mr. Wei Zhuang spends so much effort, isn't it in vain?" Mo Ya turned to glance at Wei Zhuang again and asked doubtfully.

"Ha!" Gu Xun laughed again, "You are overthinking. What he wants is just a battle, not Gai Nie's life."

"As long as one of the brothers Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang is truly determined to complete the Zongheng Duel, the new leader of Guigu will have been chosen long ago."

"After procrastinating for so many years, to put it bluntly, both of them are avoiding war, but to varying degrees."

"This... is really beyond my expectations." Mo Ya laughed dryly, quite surprised by this answer.

Gu Xun had already seen clearly, and responded with a pleasant chuckle, "Anyway, let's just take care of the affairs of the two senior brothers. Let them do whatever they want."

"My subordinate understands."

………………

Outside the city.

An elite team of experts led by Yan Dan Xiaoyaozi and others.

"There don't seem to be many signs of the Qin army's presence along the way?" Zhang Liang glanced at the mountains and forests outside and said to Yan Dan with a smile.

The bamboo hat moved slightly, and Yan Dan agreed and analyzed, "That's true. I'm afraid the leader of the Qin Army this time is not an easy one to deal with."

Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and added, "The siege outside is just well hidden, but inside the city... why does it feel like there is no movement at all? It doesn't look like a large number of Qin troops are stationed there?"

"This is indeed the most puzzling part." Zhang Liang smiled warmly and nodded slightly.

Thief Zhi came up at this time, his face anxious and surprised, "Big man, big man! The poisonous gas...the poisonous gas seems to have dispersed?"

"Huh?" Yan Dan was shocked when he heard this and quickly asked, "Are you sure?"

Thief Zhi scratched his head, "I...I can't say, but this place should have been under the influence of poisonous gas before, but now the poisonous gas is gone."

"Could someone else have successfully opened the water change valve?" Xiaoyaozi asked Yan Dan sideways.

"Maybe..." Yan Dan nodded after hesitating.

Even if Master Ban is blocked in the Black Ink Core Chamber and cannot get out, there is still a chance that someone can open the Xuanwu Water Valve, but... the person who opens the gate will most likely die at the hands of Xuanwu.

"In this way, the steps of opening the water valve, changing the water and detoxifying can be omitted." Yan Dan then adjusted the action plan, "We will divide the troops into two groups according to the original plan."

"Thief Zhi, you lead most of the people and rush to the medicine warehouse as quickly as possible, confirm the status of the antidote in the warehouse, and if it is well preserved, immediately treat the poisoned disciples in the city, and at the same time send someone to inform the large troops at the rear of the situation. .”

"I, Taoist Brother Xiaoyaozi, Head Zhang San, and Xiao Ling will go directly to the central hall to rescue Xiao Gao and the others."

The original plan was that they should open the gate and release the water first, but now that the poisonous gas has dissipated, this step can be skipped.

Thief Zhi didn't waste time by talking nonsense. After cupping his fists and saluting, he immediately set off with most of the people.

Yan Dan looked at the few people left, nodded and said, "Without further delay, let's set off."

………………

"Uncle!"

"Uncle!!!"

With an anxious look on his face, Tian Ming rushed to kneel down next to Gai Nie, reached out and grabbed his shoulders, trying to wake him up by shaking him, but he was concerned about his injuries and did not dare to use too much force. He shook and shed tears. shouted:

"Uncle! Wake up!"

"Uncle! You'll be fine, just tell me you'll be fine!"

Genie, who was groggy and dying of thought, seemed to have really heard Tianming's cry and suddenly woke up!

Gai Nie opened his eyes and saw the tearful Tian Ming. He was so weak that he couldn't get up, so he could only stretch out his palm and grab Tian Ming's hand.

Tianming was overjoyed to see Gai Nie regaining consciousness. He raised his free hand to wipe away his tears and forced a smile, "Uncle, uncle, are you okay!?"

Gai Nie shook his head invisibly, and his tone was softer and weaker than ever before, "Tianming, do you still remember what I told you?" Looking at Gai Nie's performance, Tianming knew that this time he woke up, and he was afraid that it would be too late. It was just a comeback, but he was unwilling to accept this, and instead forced himself to believe that his uncle was fine.

But... the tears couldn't be controlled by him, and they fell from his eyes in clusters, wetting his entire face and blurring his vision.

"Tianming, you must walk on this road with strength." Ge Nie lay on the ground and continued talking angrily, "Even without me, you have to walk alone!"

"No!" When Tianming heard this, he immediately lost control of his emotions. He shouted and shook his head, "No, I don't want to go alone!"

"You promised me that you would accompany me, and you would go on with me!"

"Uncle, you still want to teach me swordsmanship!"

"You want to come with me!"

Gai Nie said no more, just looked at the child with gentle eyes, raised his hand to touch his face, but unfortunately... he didn't touch it in the end, so he closed his eyes again and passed out.

"No! Uncle!" When Tianming saw someone messing around again, he suddenly panicked, "Don't fall asleep, uncle!"

At this time, Duan Murong appeared next to Gai Nie.

Her tone was rare and no longer so cold, and she looked at Tianming lovingly, "Let me take a look at him."

"Yes!" As soon as Tianming saw her, he climbed up in panic and got out of the way, "Yes, you are the Jinghu Medical Fairy, you can definitely save my uncle!"

"It will definitely work!"

Gao Jianli and Xue Nu also stopped in front of Gai Nie in time, guarding Wei Zhuang.

Unknowingly, Chen He also appeared in an excellent position to take action.

After a brief inspection, Duan Murong raised her head and said to Gao Jianli, "The situation is very dangerous and rescue must be done as soon as possible, but the current conditions..."

Hearing this, Gao Jianli no longer hesitated, drew out Shui Han, and pointed the sword pointed at Wei Zhuang:

"Wei Zhuang! I admit, you are very strong, even far stronger than I expected!"

"But now that you have no helpers, how much strength can you still have after experiencing successive battles?"

"Leave now! I promise that within today, the Mo family will not embarrass you or care about the sins you have committed!"

"Sin? Ha!" Wei Zhuang sneered, as if he heard some very funny joke, his two falcon-like eyes slowly glanced over Gao Jianli and others one by one, and then shook his shark teeth, "I thought Look how you are making things difficult for me!"

Seeing that Wei Zhuang had made it clear that he was not going to give in, Gao Jianli stopped talking nonsense for the second time. He didn't know how long Gai Nie's injury would delay him. Since making peace didn't make sense, let's start a fight.

He didn't believe that Wei Zhuang could deal with three of them at the same time!
  At this time, a deep laughter sounded.

"Ah!"

Wei Zhuang suddenly turned around when he heard the sound and looked towards the entrance of the passage.

The next moment, countless dark ink threads began to twist and spread towards Wei Zhuang, like an ink painting being created.

"Hmph!" Wei Zhuang snorted coldly, and swung the shark-tooth sword in a full circle. The red sword light swept across, and all the ink lines were swept away immediately.

When the storm calmed down, Yan Dan, wearing a dark cloak, had already stood in front of Gao Jianli and Gao Jianli, causing them to shout in surprise:
  "Giant!"

Immediately afterwards, Xiaoyaozi and Xiaoling also walked in from the entrance of the passage.

At this time, the disparity in strength on the field began to widen further, and the Mohist side had already formed a crushing trend.

Because Wei Zhuang was the only commander left, and even Hong Lian didn't know when he left.

However, he still calmly looked at the large group of enemies in front of him, without worrying about his own safety.

Of course, there is really nothing to worry about. If you can't fight, can you still run away?
  Yan Dan quickly scanned the situation on the field and couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

The difference between this scene and what he expected before coming was quite big.

He originally thought that since Gai Nie was in the city, as long as he came forward to deal with Wei Zhuang, the two sides would be in at least a certain degree of stalemate, and the Mo family should not suffer even if they did not have the upper hand.

But the reality is... none of Gao Jianli and the others were in trouble, but the strongest Gai Nie was lying on the ground, not knowing whether he was alive or dead?
  In the end what happened?
  Although he had some doubts in his heart, now was obviously not the time to ask questions. Yan Dan nodded to Gao Jianli and the other two as a signal, then turned to look at Wei Zhuang:

"You captured the government city, but you haven't taken any action yet. I think one of the targets you want is mine, right?"

"Ha!" Wei Zhuang sneered and asked without comment, "To this day, you still wear that ridiculous hat and don't dare to show your true colors?"

Wei Zhuang and Yan Dan didn't have much substantial interaction, to be more specific, just once.

When the capital of Yan was defeated and King Yan wanted to use his own son's life to appease Qin, Yan Dan chose the strategy of feigning death to escape, and the person he used to prove his death was Wei Zhuang.

To put it simply, Yan Dan personally placed an order with Niliuxha, asking them to take his life.

That transaction was handled by Wei Zhuang himself, and it was done very beautifully.

Because the killer who appeared (referring to Wei Zhuang) was far more powerful than expected, Yan Dan almost failed to fake his own death, and the fake became reality.

But it was a blessing in disguise. Even though the risk had increased, it was precisely because of Wei Zhuang's personal intervention that the news that Yan Dan was dead was firmly believed by most people.

At that time, Wei Zhuang himself didn't realize anything was wrong. Although he suspected that the target was not dead, he didn't care. He would just kill him again after he heard more news about the target.

Of course, the next time he got news about Prince Yan Dan, his death was confirmed, so Wei Zhuang regarded the transaction as completed and paid no more attention to it.

It was not until later that Wei Zhuang was reminded by Gu Xun that he discovered that Yan Dan did not die under his sword, but faked his death and hid in hiding, becoming a new generation of Mohist giants.

Wei Zhuang will naturally not allow Yan Dan to play with and use him like this, and naturally intends to make him pay some due price - either really die by his sword and let the truth return to the truth, or let Yan Dan's true face be exposed again Let the lies be corrected in front of the world.

However, Yan Dan has been reclusive in recent years, rarely showing up, and he seems to be specially guarding Wei Zhuang, always avoiding the intersection with Niqusha.

In short, Wei Zhuang has never seized the right opportunity. After all, this matter is just a trivial matter for him, and it is not worth the trouble.

Until today, Wei Zhuang finally seized this opportunity, although he had never even thought that he could solve this matter today.
