Chapter 146 Outsmarting Pingyang City

The city wall of Pingyang City is also ten meters high. In addition, the battle between the Shangguan family and the Helian family in the empire is now tense. In order to hold Pingyang City tightly, there are twice as many heavy soldiers on the tower than usual, and they want to forcefully attack the city. There must be a huge price to pay.Cheng Cheng and Catherine led more than a dozen members of the Asura Corps to make up a caravan. Everyone put on colorful clothes and hats. They were all dressed as businessmen, and walked towards the city gate together. go.

The huge arched city gate, which can be six to seven or eight high, is divided into three gates. The middle gate is for those who have status in cavalry and sedan chairs. Only the big men can enjoy the main gate.The right door is for the poor people in the city, and the leftmost door is for those who enter the city.

Cheng Cheng led a group of people through the small gate on the far left. Only when they reached the gate of the city did they realize that the guards here were not so strict. Strict interrogation.

Seeing this scene, Cheng Cheng couldn't help but feel it was funny, the powerful characters are all hidden in the space ring, what's the point of interrogating these common people?
As soon as he entered the city gate, two long halberds stood in front of Cheng Cheng's chest. A man who looked like a military officer came forward with his hips akimbo, and asked in an official tone, "What are you doing in the city?" ?”

"Officer, we went to the city to stockpile the fruits and sell them outside the city." Cheng Sheng complimented the officer flatteringly.

"With so many people, do you want to wholesale a lot?" Seeing a group of more than a dozen people, the officer continued to ask.

"That's right, go out more wholesale, so as to avoid the trouble of running around."

"There are too many wholesales, are you afraid that the fruit will be spoiled?"

"We have a way to keep it fresh, so it won't break." Cheng Cheng scolded the officer over and over again, it's embarrassing, isn't it just trying to get some oil and water?
"Since it's wholesale wholesale, what are you going to get out of the city with empty hands like this?" The officer continued to interrogate them, not intending to let them enter the city.

"We are thinking, go to the city to wholesale more fruits, and then hire a carriage to transport them out of the city, saving money and effort."

"Since you want to hire a carriage to send it out, why are there so many people here?"

The question was really careful enough, Cheng Cheng really admired this leader, and he wanted to get some oil and water when he went around.Quickly reached into his pocket, took out five silver coins from the interspatial ring, others looked as if he took it out of his pocket, handed it to the officer and said with a smile: "Small business, these officers take out two silver coins A cup of wine, it is considered as our filial piety to you."

"That's about the same, you guys go." Without asking any questions, the officer directly let him go, five silver coins is not a small amount of money.But for Cheng Cheng, the people in the Asura Corps took it out specially, because he never put such cumbersome things as silver coins in his space ring.

After entering the city, Cheng Cheng led a group of people towards the agreed place, and saw that the streets in the city had also stepped up patrolling. It seemed that Xiang's family had made sufficient preparations.

The destination was an inn, an inn that Box had agreed with him in advance, and he came to meet him at this inn.Leading a group of people in, when they came to the counter, Cheng Cheng threw ten gold coins on the stage and said, "Look for a big room, and arrange all the people to live in for me. I will send some food and drinks to the room later, and we will go together when we leave." settlement."

The pile of gold coins made the counter clerk stare straight at the counter, swallowed, looked at Cheng Cheng and his party, nodded and said: "Guests, how long do you want to stay? How about I find you a single room, there are still a lot of people in the inn." .”

"No need, the big room has arranged for us, and then drinks will be served." This guy is really wordy, not because he has no money to live in a private room, but how convenient it is to live in a private room?

"Okay!" The business in the inn was deserted, and a batch after another came today, making the counter clerk very happy, and hurriedly asked the waiter to find a big room for the distinguished guests.

Everyone has been settled properly, and Cheng Sheng and Catherine live in a double room, which he ordered alone.Not long after, the clerk brought delicious food and drink into the room. After eating, he went out to inquire about Old Man Bo's room, and gathered all the people to find Old Man Bo.

"bang bang bang"

"Who?"

"Bo Lao, it's me!"

After a while, Box opened the door of the room, and a group of people entered the room.

"We came at the right time. I have figured out the bottom line of the Xiang family. That old bastard Xiangtian is retreating to break through the bottleneck. It is a good time to kill him." As soon as he sat down, Boxers was the big Kante. Let's talk about it, obviously, now is the best time to attack Xiangtian.

"It's really God's help, so let's move today and pull out the Xiang family in one fell swoop, killing the weeds and roots." Cheng Cheng also seemed very happy, he didn't expect that the old monster of the Xiang family would break through the bottleneck at this moment, and it would be much easier now .

"However, the old housekeeper is protecting him, so it's a bit troublesome to sneak attack." With the speed of Box, he came to Pingyang City that day, and he got a thorough understanding of Xiang's family these days.

"In this way, Yan Dong will hold back the old housekeeper and buy Bo Lao enough time to clean up Xiang Tian's old things. As long as Xiang Tian dies, the Xiang family will hardly be a threat. And Xiang Hai will hand over Us." Cheng Cheng thought for a while, now that Yan Dong has broken through the cultivation base of a one-star Doudi, it will be no problem to hold that old housekeeper for a while, as long as Box can kill Xiang Tian, ​​the Xiang family will basically be fine. What a threat.As for Patriarch Xianghai, facing such a powerful team as Death Blade and Catherine, he couldn't bargain at all.

"Okay." Yan Dong nodded.

"And you guys are in charge of going to the city gate to kill a few city guards who opened the city gate, and put on their clothes to guard the city gate. Only after hearing the arrival of the army at the city gate, can you open the city gate and let them in, you know?" After everything was discussed, Cheng Cheng said to the dozen or so masters of the Asura Legion who brought in.

"No problem." More than a dozen masters nodded in agreement.

After everything was settled, Cheng Sheng told everyone to go back and rest for a while, before starting to act at night.

The City Lord's Mansion in Pingyang City is really not small, covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters, which is not inferior to the City Lord's Mansion in Jinwu City at all. It seems that the Xiang family has put a lot of effort into the decoration of this mansion. .

Whether it is day or night, there are people patrolling the city lord's mansion, which is as solid as gold.

These guards can only guard ordinary people, and it is difficult to guard the masters of the general rank, let alone the emperor rank and the honor rank.In the night sky, two black shadows flashed past the city lord's mansion, no one paid attention to the sky at all, even if they did, they couldn't see clearly, because the speed was too fast.

It was Box and Yan Dong who entered the city lord's mansion, a powerful man of imperial rank and an old monster of respectable rank, who landed lightly on the roof of a majestic building, walked quickly, but did not step on the tiles at all The sound is extremely weird.

"The old housekeeper is in that room, and Xiangtian is in closed-door retreat in the basement. I will sneak up on the old housekeeper in a while, and then you go to pester him, and I will clean up the old things in the basement." Pointing to the front door House, Box said to Yan Dong in a low voice.

"Okay!" Yan Dong nodded respectfully, he was in awe of this respected and powerful man.

After discussing it, the two continued to float towards the house. Pox walked gently to the window, and through the gap in the window, he saw the old housekeeper sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking even older than him, exhausted. The lamp is dry.

Without too much observation, Box moved his hand directly. With his fingers, hundreds of tiny ice needles formed in front of him. With a wave of his hand, more than a hundred tiny ice needles pierced through the old butler on the bed. Shoot out, fast.

The old butler was also a master of the imperial rank, and he felt the wind blowing, relying on his years of experience in walking the line between life and death, he directly dodged under the bed.But can Box's sneak attack allow him, a master of the imperial rank, to escape?That would be too disrespectful to a powerful person.At least a dozen ice needles pierced the old housekeeper's body, making him suddenly icy cold, and he quickly used his fighting spirit to force the cold poison out of his body.

Without giving him any chance to breathe, the door of the room was shattered with a bang, Yan Dong fell into the room like a roc, swung the spear in his hand and stabbed at the old housekeeper.The old housekeeper who was attacked didn't dare to continue to force the cold poison, and instantly condensed into a blue grudge mask to block the tip of the spear, but judging by the continuous fluctuation of his grudge mask, it seemed that it might burst at any time.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the old butler shot out of the room at once. If he didn't take the opportunity to force out the cold poison in his body, he would not be able to exert his full strength, so he chose to avoid the edge temporarily.

And how could Yan Dong give him a chance?Chasing after him like a maggot attached to a bone, naturally he will not be given a chance.

The two chased out of the house and had a big fight. Box's opportunity came. He suddenly appeared in the house, found the vase on the table and unscrewed it.
