Chapter 189 Crisis
Su Jiu's heart sank, and he didn't answer. Seeing Mo Xian stepping into the forest, she also led the horse and trotted all the way to Su's house.

After entering the small courtyard of the Su family, the first thing Su Jiu did was to sew the jade ring finger and Biyue's comb in his belly pocket with needles and threads. The things are there, unless she dies, otherwise the things will never be handed over. go out.

At this time, Su Xiaoshan had just returned from playing chess under the mountain, and pushed the door in with the chessboard on his back. He looked at Su Jiu who was sitting in the yard frowning, "Sister, when will you come back, why are you frowning?"

"It's nothing, I was wondering if I should practice kung fu so that I can use a few more tricks when I fight with others in the future."

"How many extra moves? Sister, what else can you do besides running?"

"Go, and you will know how to expose the shortcoming."

"Hey, why are you back, isn't it very good in the army?"

"No, you went out to play chess again?"

"Yes, the flames of war in this chess game are no less than that of the frontier fortress."

Su Jiu stretched his waist, yawned again and again, and asked him, "Hey, where did father and mother go, and why are you not at home so early?"

"Oh, maybe she went to the fields. My mother seems to be very hardworking recently, and she always goes out after dark. At first I thought something happened, so I asked my father, and my father said that my mother went to the fields. I guess both of them have gone by now." , Huh, that's strange, there's nothing to be busy with right now."

Su's mother's capriciousness must have something to do with this battle. Su Jiu's heart began to feel uneasy. She touched the things in her arms, but she still didn't tell Xiao Shan about it, so she said, "Don't worry about them, just go I've been busy all my life, and I feel itchy when I'm not busy for a while. But you, why are you not at home all night? You can't stay home in the middle of the night even if you play chess, and you don't want to go home?" Su Jiu got up and poured the gruel that had been made earlier. He gave it to Xiao Shan and said, "Drink it, I know you don't like to eat in the morning."

"Hey, it's better, sister. I'm also a genius. I've been fascinated by playing chess with the old man recently, but I just can't break his chess game." Su Xiaoshan broke the porridge bowl and drank it with a "gulp" gulp.

"Drink slowly, there's still in the pot."

"By the way, sister, I want to go to the town to buy some things and come back. Do you want to go?"

"buy what?"

"I've run out of ink, I want to buy some more, and the shopkeeper of the bookstore I bought last time took it wrong, I have to change it."

"Oh. Just wait at home, I'll do it for you, I want to see Liang Xiaodie."

"Sister Xiaodie is here?"

"Hey, it's not that she is worried when I come back. I heard from Zhou Xiang that she is here too. I'm going to take a look. I guess I won't be able to make it back tonight. Just wait for me at home."

"Alright, I'm going to play chess with Senior at night."

"Just know how to play chess, don't delay reading."

"It's okay." After a pause, Xiao Shan said again, "Oh, sister, tell me, do I still need to go to the exam to obtain fame after that incident?" Xiao Shan knew that his future was related to the entire Su family, so he didn't dare to make a decision lightly, let alone speak out hastily.

Su Jiu understood Xiao Shan's mood. She was thinking about how to tell Xiao Shan about this when she came back last time, but she only said it after being questioned by Xiao Shan. Now that she thinks about it, Xiao Shan has let go, so she doesn't need to dodge any more, so she said, "Of course you need it. Although there is no sky there, you still have to be an upright official. When an upright official is there, bad people will be punished. Maybe you will be appreciated by more people and directly compete with the emperor. You see, isn't the grand master right now?" ?”

"Haha, my sister still knows about the situation, it's amazing."

"Go, the brat has imitated you badly. I have learned something from others recently, so I know how to laugh at your sister when I come back. Oh, by the way... Don't listen to what my mother tells you, let her go."

"Mother? I haven't seen my mother for many days. I heard that my mother has been in the field all the time. What's wrong with my mother? What did you say to my sister?"

"Oh, hehe...it's nothing, I also heard from my father that my mother has been in a bad mood recently and said some strange things, just don't worry about it."

"Oh, I understand. When will you leave for the town, sister? There is a war going on now, so be careful, or I will go with you!"

"Farewell, you stay at home with father and mother, I'll go by myself, it's not convenient for you to go to Xiaodie's place, now that she is pregnant and has trouble moving, I'm afraid of causing trouble for her if you go."

"Well, that's fine, sister, remember to close the door when you go out. I'm so sleepy, so I'll take a nap first."

"Go!"

Seeing Su Xiaoshan enter the house with the chessboard in his hands, Su Jiu let out a long sigh. Apart from his father and Xiaoshan, Su Jiu really had no relatives around him, so he couldn't help feeling sad, and sat there in a daze for a long time before slowly getting up. Ready to go down the mountain.

Su Jiu hadn't taken a carriage since she learned how to ride a horse. This time, she also rode the pony that Zhou Xiang gave her to the town.According to Zhou Xiang, Liang Xiaodie knew that Su Jiu could not sleep all day after she suddenly returned to Youxia Mountain. She often had nightmares and was worried about what happened to Su Jiu and Li Kuo. Ask someone to send her here.

But because there were often wars here, Liang Xiaodie never came out of the town. Su Jiu became worried when he heard that she was coming. The first thing he did when he came back this time was to see Liang Xiaodie.

But as soon as he entered the entrance of the town, he saw the heavy guards here, Su Jiu got off his horse, and led the pony to jolt inside.

It seems that because of refugees and strict investigation, many people are squeezed here, unable to enter or exit.

Su Jiu led the horse and stood among the crowd looking up. At this moment, she was thinking how nice it would be to meet someone she knew.

Thinking of this, someone called her over there, "Miss Su..."

Su Jiu was taken aback for a moment, then looked back, and saw Liao Xuanyi standing there with one hand behind his back.

"Hey, King Liao... Liao Xuanyi, why are you here?" Su Jiu ran over happily.

Liao Xuanyi also smiled, and walked towards her, smiling as he walked, "Because some barbarians are making trouble everywhere, Lord Nie is arresting people everywhere, so I can't be free, but because of my status, Lord Nie put me in Here, order me to take people there after the battle in a few days. By the way, strictly guard the people here and check the people coming and going."

"That's it, can you let me in?" Su Jiu said with a smile.

"Haha, Miss Su really knows how to joke, how can I not let you go. Come, follow me." Liao Xuanyi took the lead and walked inside first, Su Jiu led the pony and followed behind him.

When Su Jiu followed Liao Xuanyi into the town, there was a loud noise outside, followed by a boulder falling from the top of his head and hitting the ground.

Su Jiu fell to the ground in shock, Liao Xuanyi picked her up and ran towards the town.

There was a louder scream outside, "Ah... help, gunpowder, there is gunpowder."

Liao Xuanyi ran while protecting Su Jiu, and the guards who came behind him reported, "My lord, it seems that gunpowder was hidden under the town, and it exploded suddenly, many people were killed, what should we do?"

Liao Xuanyi was ordered to guard here, waiting for orders. There were not many people, but they were all elites. He immediately decided, "Bring them all in, we can't disperse, let everyone withdraw quickly, we can't control those people anymore. "

"Yes, my lord, where are we going to retreat? I'm afraid there are barbarians ambushing in the town."

"Go to Liang Mansion." Su Jiu suggested.

Liao Xuanyi hesitated for a moment, then nodded to the guard, "Follow Miss Su, we will all go to the Liang Mansion."

"Coax!" There was another roar that shook the sky, and a monstrous cloud of smoke and dust suddenly rose from the mouth of the town, submerging the whole town in gloom.

Not long after everyone ran out, before they could rush in again to block the walls of the dungeon, there was a sudden explosion, and the entire half of the dungeon collapsed.

Nie Wuhuan and the others stood in front of the dungeon, staring at it for a long time.It only took him two hours from receiving the news to arriving here. Although he was a step late, luckily he found out in time, because what he wanted to save was the special weapon under the town that had been secured by Zhou Xiangan.

The choking smoke and dust rolled in from the front, mixed with a stronger smell of fire, surrounding all the places here.

Nie Wuhuan yelled, "What are you looking at? Go back and guard the entrance of the town. You go to the back to defend, and you go inside to protect the rest of the people."

Nie Wuhuan shouted again, "Everyone else come here."

"Yes, my lord."

Nie Wuhuan sighed slightly, unable to bear to take another look at the collapsed stone, and ordered everyone to surround the entire exit of the dungeon. He wanted to arrest all the barbarians inside, and not let any one go.

While yelling at people to slowly remove the stones, he ordered people to extinguish the flames, and on the other hand, he arranged for people to continue to guard the city gate to prevent the retreating enemy from attacking again.

At the same time, a bolt of lightning suddenly struck in the sky.

Nie Wuhuan was shocked. It was the rainy season at this time, and there was a lot of rain in the south, and it was dark and humid. If water entered the dungeon and the water level rose, it would be difficult to transport all the remaining undamaged weapons.

Nie Wuhuan shouted, "Hurry up, don't panic, take it easy."

The stones shattered into slag, and if you moved a small piece, more sand would scatter down, and even the big stones dared not move. Very few people know about the dungeon of the town. After the subdued, the most critical place here was hidden, and many people moved to the front of the city to live, and this place became an important place to hide military supplies. I thought few people knew about it, but I didn’t want to be found out by the barbarians , and blew up the weapons they had just transported from the imperial city.

The dungeon is deep and high, built in a circle, think about what a magnificent scene it would be, a pile of scattered sand and stones collapsed in an instant, even if the fallen iron bars supported it, the weapons underneath How much is left?

Nie Wuhuan didn't dare to think about it, and kicked the stone at his feet fiercely, "Damn it!"

"Hurry up, hurry up!" Nie Wuhuan yelled and urged.

The soldiers who remained were also heavily wounded and scarred. Moving the stones was a lot of energy. In order to prevent more sand and stones from falling down, it became another vivid battlefield.

Nie Wuhuan watched the sand and stones fall down, and his heart became more and more flustered. He pulled a person and dragged him aside, "Clean up the dead bodies here for me."

"Yes, it's the prince." The man was startled, got up from the ground in panic, and walked to the side to clean up the battlefield.

"My lord, my lord..." Someone came to report.
