Just after seven o'clock in the evening, Lu Xiaoning had eaten early and stayed in front of the computer.
After getting bored of waiting, Lu Xiaoning called his girlfriend.
"Guess what happened today? You must not have imagined it."
"No, guess first, guess what happened to me today? You must not have imagined it."
An Xi on the other end of the phone was also very excited. She was obviously looking forward to the prospect of the company entering the short drama industry. Lu Xiaoning did not dampen her enthusiasm. In fact, it was too late to enter the short drama industry at this time. Not only was the market saturated, but the unit price had also dropped. , and the piracy trend of short dramas has been difficult to curb.
"Okay, let me guess first, have you met a handsome guy?"
"What? There is no handsome guy. Guess again. Guess again."
"That means you suddenly missed me and made a surprise attack. You are outside the door now, right?"
"Well, I miss you very much, but I really can't go back now. I will make it up to you when I get back from my work."
"Then I can't guess, Bao, what happened to you over there? You can tell it directly."
"I really don't have any patience at all." An Qin muttered and then said, "Am I not the assistant to the company's art director? I am responsible for preparing props and venues for filming. This time I am filming a short play about the Tang Dynasty, about Princess Taiping. A love story in which the male protagonist travels through time and becomes the princess’s consort, Xue Shao.”
"As a result, when I was setting up the scene, I suddenly had a feeling."
"Those costumes, those props, and those scenes actually gave me a very familiar feeling."
"It's like I've worn those clothes, used those appliances, and lived in that house before. It's really like returning to the old place where I've lived for a long time. It's very familiar."
Listening to An Xin's eloquent talk on the other end of the phone, Lu Xiaoning felt creepy again.
Something is wrong, something is really wrong. It seems that ever since lightning turned his computer into a window of time and space, strange phenomena have been appearing around him. So is it Anqin's turn now?
Could it be said that An Qin awakened some memories of her previous life?
"Xiao Ning, are you listening?" An Xin asked suddenly.
"Ah, yes, I'm listening, go on." Lu Xiaoning said hurriedly.
An Qin continued: "This familiar feeling helped me a lot. I knew how to put on clothes and set up the scene almost without thinking. Sister Yu and my colleagues all praised me for my ability to restore the atmosphere of the prosperous Tang Dynasty. It’s much more restored than those dramas from the Tang Dynasty.”
After a pause, he added: "Now it's my turn to guess. Did you get a salary increase?"
"Salary?" Lu Xiaoning slapped his forehead and said in annoyance, "Forgot about this."
When I was so happy, I forgot to mention my salary to Xia Liangming. This was careless. Huayi Company didn't have any job allowances or anything like that. If you didn't mention it to the boss, you would still have the same salary even if you became the vice president.
"There's no salary increase." An Xin said thoughtfully, "Is that just picking up money?"
Lu Xiaoning said proudly: "I'll tell you directly. Our company has a new engineering department, and I am the manager of the engineering department. How about it? Didn't you expect it?"
"Really?" An Qin, who was opposite, was so happy, "Husband, you are awesome."
"Don't you still know whether I'm great or not?" Lu Xiaoning said with a smirk.
"I hate it, I won't tell you anymore. I'm going to be busy here." An Xin hung up the phone.
Lu Xiaoning looked at the time. It was already past nine o'clock, and the sky over Anxi was finally dark.
Lu Xiaoning immediately put on the low-light night vision goggles and turned off the lights in the room to ensure the effect.
It's okay. It actually works. Originally, the computer screen was completely dark and I couldn't see anything clearly. But after I put on the low-light night vision device, I could see clearly. I could even see the waves in the Selu River.
After waiting for about half an hour, a black shadow floated upstream of the Sailu River.
Lu Xiaoning zoomed in on the picture and quickly saw clearly that it was a raft made of a large number of logs spliced together. On each raft there was a Tibetan soldier holding up the grass.
There were many sacks tied to many rafts.
Needless to say, it must be military supplies.
Lu Xiaoning immediately returned the camera to the watchtower.
…
Looking upstairs, Lu Wen was also looking eastward.
It's a pity that I can't even see it with my eyesight.
Pei Zhen saw Lu Wen's worry and said, "Li, why don't you shoot a fire spear on the river with every snap of your fingers from now on? So as not to miss the raft."
"No need." Lu Wen shook his head decisively, he believed in the Immortal.
What's more, there aren't that many fire spears for them to waste.
Du Yue also advised: "But Lu Tou, if you don't shoot the fire spear, you won't be able to see anything at all."
"Hush, be silent." Lu Wen suddenly made a silent gesture and said after a moment, "Here we come, the Tibetan rafts have already come down. Prepare the fire spears and check the hemp ropes!"
Cui He looked over suspiciously upon hearing this.
Pei Zhen and Du Yue placed two spears with arms about six feet in length on the bed frame.
The head of this spear also wears a bowl-sized ball wrapped in linen, and the linen has been soaked in stone grease, and the smell can be smelled from a distance.
After loading the spear, Du Yue and the two men continued to check the hemp rope.
After checking the hemp rope, everyone began to wait quietly.
Time passed quietly in the suffocating waiting, and a quarter of an hour passed quickly.
At a certain moment, Lu Wen suddenly shouted: "The Tibetan rafts are here, light them up quickly! Get your crossbows ready!"
Upon hearing this, Du Yue and Pei Zhen immediately lit the fire with the fire sickle and the fire spear. The two cloth balls soaked in stone fat at the front of the fire spear immediately started to burn.
The remaining Mo Dao soldiers of the Mo Dao team raised their crossbows one after another.
In addition to the main weapon Mo Dao, Mo Dao soldiers also have a variety of secondary weapons such as short-handled bones, crossbows, horizontal knives, and long bows. Some are even equipped with rifles and human-shaped arsenals.
Lu Wen strode behind a bed crossbow and held the crossbow handle.
Cui He and Du Yue held the end of the bed crossbow and lifted it up.
"A little higher, okay, that's it, go left, go left again..."
Lu Wen then signaled Cui He and Du Yue to adjust the shooting angle of the bed crossbow according to his command.
In fact, it was Lu Xiaoning who was directing Lu Wen, because Lu Xiaoning had already pointed the surveillance camera at the crossbow.
Although Cui He did as he was told, he was still full of doubts in his heart. Can Lu Wen really see the Tubo rafts floating down from the Sailu River? He's not a night owl, so how can he see at night?
While I was thinking about it, a loud bang suddenly sounded in my ears.
But Lu Wen had already deactivated the crossbow, and the fire spear, which was more than six feet long and as thick as its arm, immediately shot towards the Sailu River with a piercing scream and drew a trail of flames in the air.
That is, Shizhi will not be blown out even if it flies at such a high speed.
The next moment, a muffled sound came from the Sailu River.
Then the flickering flame stabilized, illuminating an area of more than ten steps in a radius.
"Hit!" There was a burst of cheers from the south watchtower, because it could be clearly seen in the firelight that the fire spear just shot was indeed nailed to a wooden raft.
Cui He was also stunned on the spot, and he actually got shot? How can it be?
There were Tibetan soldiers on the nearby raft responsible for holding up the pole. Upon seeing this, they immediately rushed over and tried to cut the hemp rope.
But how could the Mo Dao team let the Tubo soldiers get their wish? Before the Tibetan soldiers could rush forward, more than a dozen crossbow arrows had already shot down from the watchtower, instantly turning the Tibetan soldiers into a hedgehog.
The distance from the watchtower to the Sailu River was only thirty steps, and since they were at a high altitude, the Tibetan soldiers had no place to hide.
Lu Wen then shot a second fire spear, and the wooden raft that was originally flowing down the river was pulled to a stop in the river bend below the watchtower. This is a river bend, and the water flow is relatively gentle, otherwise it may not be possible to pull it.
After all, these are hundreds of logs, and they have great inertia flowing down the river.
In order to ensure that the raft would not be washed away, Lu Wen shot eight more spears.
The raft was tightly bound by ten spears and ten arm-thick hemp ropes.
Dozens of Tibetan soldiers who were holding poles on the rafts rushed to the rescue and tried to cut off the hemp ropes. However, without exception, they were shot and killed by the Tang troops on the watchtower, and the Tibetan rafts were completely stopped.
When Tian Dajia and Wang Chang arrived, Lu Wen had even sent people down to the raft, untied the sacks tied to the raft and sent them to the watchtower through the winch. They were all full of highland barley.
"Captain, highland barley, all highland barley." Du Du said excitedly.
Tian Dajia grabbed a handful of highland barley, put it in his mouth and chewed it. He felt a faint fragrance in his mouth.
"High-quality highland barley, newly harvested last autumn." Tian Dajia put the highland barley back, then patted Lu Wen's shoulder hard and said, "Lu Wen, you can do it, and you have made great achievements again!"
"The captain is overrated." Lu Wen still looked modest.
Wang Chang next to him had a gloomy look on his face, unable to leave now.
