This group of old people living in the mountain village are naturally not ordinary people. They are all worshipers of the royal family. Because they don't like the boring life in Yushan, they settled down in this mountain village. According to their agreement with Li Yan, if something unexpected happens, they will Light up the smoke.
Late at night, these old people did not fall asleep, but drank wine and ate vegetables in the courtyard.
As an offering, they naturally drank the Erguotou that Luo Zhang paid tribute to the royal family. As for Maotai, Luo Zhang didn’t give much every month. It was for His Majesty to drink. He was not qualified to offer it as an offering, but Erguotou was already a gift to them. It's a very good thing. You can't buy it outside.
Just when they were drinking, they saw the dark night sky, and suddenly there was a thick smoke rising into the sky in the direction of Yushan. Although the night was dark, the height of Yushan was so high that the smoke was still very obvious. Naturally, they were attracted by a bunch of old men. What the guys saw.
"problem occurs!"
"Then why are you so drunk? Hurry up and leave!"
Several worshipers hurriedly put down their wine glasses and rushed towards Jade Mountain.
In the direction of Yushan, Li Yan and a group of guards struggled to resist the attack of a group of men in black. However, although he was powerful, the enemy leader was not weak, and with several men in black around, he was unable to help him at all. 's subordinates.
Although he has two strong men at the third level of the True Essence Realm under his command, the enemy who cannot stand up to them is the fifth level of the True Essence Realm.
In order to entangle and hold back these enemies, the guards fell into a pool of blood one by one. Li Yan's eyes were splitting and he was almost crazy when he saw this. These were all subordinates he brought with him. Although he was very strict with these subordinates on weekdays. , but the feelings are very deep. Watching these men who usually smile playfully with him die, one can imagine how painful Li Yan is.
In the cave, after the second leader led a few men in black, they were a little confused. There were too many side roads in the cave. The two paths they took were both wrong. In the end, they were both dead ends, and they had no choice but to go back to the way they came from. Keep looking.
And this is another method Luo Zhang used to protect gunpowder. Even if an accident occurs, the enemy will not be able to find the place where gunpowder is produced as soon as possible, giving time for reinforcements to arrive and catch the turtle in the jar.
But although Luo Zhang was very defensive, he couldn't resist the strange people. Among these people, there was a person who could find the way by relying on the earth's hearing.
I saw a man in black lying on the ground, listening constantly, and soon heard a vibrating sound coming from one of the passages.
"Here!" The man in black said excitedly to the second leader.
Several men in black, led by the second leader, rushed in directly.
Outside, after many guards died in large numbers, one of the two third-level True Essence Realm guards who was dragging the enemy was finally unable to resist and was knocked away with a palm.
His fall greatly increased the pressure on the other person. He tried to restrain him but was unable to stop him. He was also knocked away with a palm.
The fall of these two people made the remaining guards unable to withstand the attack of the men in black and could only retreat continuously. It was not that they wanted to retreat, but that they had no way to stop them. The enemy was too strong, far beyond their Qi Sense realm. Able to compete.
Li Yan was so anxious that he cursed his mother. Normally, it would be fine if those old guys didn't come to Yushan, but at the critical moment, they failed to come and they haven't arrived yet. If the enemy really took away the gunpowder, then he would be a sinner. .
Helpless, Li Yan could only silently pray in his heart that the enemy would not discover the place where gunpowder was made.
Fortunately, at this moment, a group of old guys came over from the bottom of the mountain.
Seeing the corpses of many guards lying on the ground, the expressions of the old guys changed.
"What a bold maniac! He dares to come to the royal forbidden area. He is really looking for death!"
Without further ado, let’s get straight to work.
These old guys are not the guards at the third level of the True Yuan Realm. The weakest ones are at the fifth level of the True Yuan Realm, and the highest ones have reached the seventh level of the True Yuan Realm. Think about it, how can you become a royal servant without strength.
Seeing these old guys finally arriving, Li Yan was relieved, but at the same time he was extremely nervous. After all, an enemy had already entered the cave.
"Mr. Ma, some enemies have already entered the cave. Help me hold them back while I go in to check!" Li Yan greeted the royal ministers who came over.
"Go ahead, we can't make any waves here!" The white-haired old man called Mr. Ma waved his hand.
But before Li Yan could rush into the cave, he saw a group of people running out of the cave. Everyone was carrying a box on their backs. Naturally, Li Yan had seen that box before. It was Mugoda's box. He would see it every day. How could you not recognize such a box being transported from the cave?
"It's not good, Mr. Ma. The enemy has found something. Stop them quickly. Don't let them leave. No one can be spared!" Li Yan shouted anxiously, and he also stepped forward to kill the enemy who had just come out.
And Ma Lao and others were not hesitant, they also rushed forward and strangled the man in black.
"Brother, we got it!" The second leader rushed out of the cave and greeted the tall man.
Hearing this, the tall man was overjoyed. He would not be entangled with Li Yan and the others. He called his men and said: "We have got the things, move out!"
"It's not that easy to leave!" Li Yan stopped the tall man and the two became entangled again.
But the second leader didn't hesitate, just carried the box and prepared to go down the mountain, but was stopped by a royal minister.
The strength of the men in black should not be underestimated, it was no worse than the royal offerings, and they were even less willing to fight after knowing that they had obtained the items. They would fight and leave, not entangled with the royal offerings at all, and quickly rushed down the mountain, with the sound of fighting. Also gradually go away.
Only the tall man was left fighting with Li Yan on the mountain.
When he saw that all his men had gone down the mountain, although they were still being pestered, he felt much relieved. After forcing Li Yan to retreat with one palm, he fled down the mountain without moving.
Naturally, Li Yan couldn't let him go, so he pursued him closely.
An hour later, Li Yan and a group of white-haired old men returned to the entrance of the cave on the mountainside of Yushan Mountain. Looking at the mess on the ground, everyone's expressions were very ugly.
Only the man in black held in Mr. Ma's hand was still alive. This was the only one they captured alive.
"Mr. Ma, please interrogate this person carefully. I'll go in first to see the situation!" Li Yan said with a stern face.
Mr. Ma lost interest in talking. He just nodded and led the man in black to the room where Li Yan lived.
The rest of the ministers were not idle, but summoned the guards who had been forced to retreat to clean up the battlefield on the mountain. At the same time, they sent people to send the news back to Chang'an. It was impossible not to report such a big thing to Your Majesty, and the rest It's up to Your Majesty to decide how to handle the matter!
