At this moment, the poison barrier that had dispersed had gathered again.

Qianqiu forcibly circulated the power of cultivation, looked at the poison barrier that had gathered again, and said in her heart: "Can I still be suppressed by your mere poison barrier?"

Under Qianqiu's forced operation, the cultivation in the cultivation pool finally showed some improvement.

"Fire Technique—Fire Dragon Technique!"

Qianqiu released a whole fire dragon in his hand, roaring and charging towards the monsters that kept rushing in.

Wherever the fire dragon went, the monsters screamed.

Just when Qianqiu thought his cultivation power would return to normal, the poison barrier in the sky became even thicker.

"Oops! Another loophole was taken advantage of!"

As Qianqiu sighed, he felt that his power of cultivation began to slowly weaken again, and the fire dragon also slowly began to become smaller.

Qianqiu shouted to the side: "Hurry up and block the city gate!"

"Yes!" Regardless of the danger, the guards rushed towards the city gate with a knife in one hand and an iron net in the other.

"Brothers! Go ahead!" they shouted to build up momentum for themselves.

There were not many officers guarding the city. Although they shouted to cheer for themselves, they were still unable to stop the influx of monsters.

Qianqiu, who was standing behind, was not idle either. He ran to lift up a huge iron net, put it on his shoulders, and rushed towards the city gate. A row of monsters were blocked back by Qianqiu. .

"Qian Shaoxia is really a god!" The officials all admired Qian Qiu's move.

Qianqiu gritted his teeth and said, "Hurry up and block the entrance. Don't let these things squeeze in again."

Everyone nodded.

In the end, Qianqiu blocked the monsters out with only one person's power, and some fish that slipped through the net were also hunted down by the officials guarding the city.

Everyone collapsed on the ground, gasping for air.

Qianqiu took a short rest and said to the people on the side: "What's going on? When I went out, the city's defense was still in good condition?"

The guard told Qianqiu everything.

Qianqiu frowned and said, "There are still such scum in this world!"

The guard replied: "Qian Shaoxia, I am actually very surprised. Why would Capt. Gao do this? The entire Gao Town people have no enmity against him."

"Doesn't he have any relatives in the city?" Qianqiu asked.

The guard said: "The only relative I have is Gao Shang, the housekeeper of Gao Yuan's wife's family. He is lazy, arrogant and has few friends."

Qianqiu thought for a while, nodded, and said: "It seems that it is because he has no worries that he causes this guy to mess around. This guy has a dark heart. You should quickly inform Lord Gaotong and be careful of everyone approaching the city gate. This plague The real culprit behind this should be found soon.”

The guard nodded, took a horse from the side, and galloped away.

Besides, Gao Yuanda was considered lucky. He escaped safely from the west city gate. No one had time to pay attention to him, so he took the opportunity to run out.

Gao Yuanda found a shabby house and sat down, stroking his heart. When had he ever done this? Naturally, I was very nervous at this time.

"I have to go home! I have to go home! Find that woman!" Gao Yuanda suddenly stood up, "If Gao Town falls, I have to escape."

He stood up hastily and ran towards his home.

By the time he got home, it was already late at night.

"Hero! Heroine! Where are you?" Gao Yuanda pushed open the door of his house and called while searching. He was so anxious that he almost cried.

But who else is there in Gao Yuanda's family? The woman has disappeared.

"No, she won't lie to me." Gao Yuanda was about to collapse. He knocked over the teacups and tattered tables and chairs at home, and ran out in anger or despair.

The entire Gao Town is quiet except for the four city gates.

Gao Yuanda yelled and ran towards the west city gate again, but stopped halfway because he saw a familiar figure standing in front of him.

"Hero! My aunt! You are here!" Gao Yuanda seemed to have seen the savior, because at this moment, he felt that his arms had begun to become numb and stiff.

"Help! Help! Auntie, I've done what you asked me to do. Please detoxify me!" Gao Yuanda kowtowed and gestured, shouting and coughing.

The woman glanced at Gao Yuanda with disdain and cursed: "Look at what you are doing." Then she threw a pill on the ground.

Gao Yuanda hurriedly picked up the pills and stuffed them into his mouth, swallowing them immediately.

The woman scolded again: "It's useless. Did you know that the west city gate has been blocked again?"

After Gao Yuanda swallowed the pill, he cried and said: "Hero, it's already amazing that I can risk it all. How can I still have the courage to see if it is successful?"

The woman walked aside and said, "I need you to go to Nancheng again and try your old trick again."

Gao Yuanda stood up, waved his hands, and said: "No! No! Hero, someone already knows about my affairs. They must be rushing to inform all parties at this moment. If I go again, won't I be falling into a trap?"

"Don't worry, the messenger hasn't arrived in Nancheng yet. It's still too late for you to go now." The woman said with her hands behind her back, looking at the poison barrier in the sky.

Gao Yuanda shook his head repeatedly and said: "I won't go, and I won't go even if you are beaten to death. If I am caught, I will definitely die badly."

The woman turned around, stared at Gao Yuanda fiercely, and said, "The medicine I gave you just now can only temporarily suppress the toxicity in your body. If you don't take it, you will still turn into a zombie sooner or later."

Gao Yuanda's eyes suddenly opened wide, he looked at the woman and said, "Didn't you promise me that you would detoxify me?"

"I promised, but you didn't get the job done. How can I give you the antidote?" the woman said with a smile. That smile seemed to come from the underworld, which was very scary.

Gao Yuanda kept sniffing, his eyes rolled around, and his head was already in a mess.

The woman said: "If you successfully blow up the South City Gate, I will grant you a hundred acres of fertile land in the Holy Capital, two palaces, and a lovely wife."

Upon hearing this, Gao Yuanda's eyes lit up, but he still looked at the woman doubtfully.

The woman said: "If you don't believe it, you can leave on your own, I won't force you."

Gao Yuanda thought for a while and said: "Auntie, I don't know why you insist on destroying the entire Gao Town... We ordinary people have no enmity or enmity against you..."

"No grievance or enmity? What a clear person. When my father died tragically at Caishikou, Dongjie, was there anyone who helped collect his body?" The woman sneered.

Gao Yuanda looked at the woman's smile and knew that the person in front of him must have a grudge against Gao Zhen. He didn't dare to say anything, so he said, "I promise you."

The woman nodded and said, "When the matter is done, I will wait for you at the Caishikou of Dongjie Street." Then she left.

Gao Yuanda was stunned for a moment and nodded.

Then, he took advantage of the darkness to find a horse and reached Nancheng overnight.

Gao Yuanda stood behind a willow tree and looked at the South City Gate from a distance.

Everything was normal at the South City Gate, and nothing unusual happened.

Gao Yuanda nodded slightly, looked around, and got the wine jar prepared by the woman from a wine shop not far away.

He straightened his clothes and walked towards the south gate.

At the South City Gate at this time, Mr. Yang was not there, and the remaining guards were a little tired. Except for those on duty, some of the others began to feel a little dazed, and some even started to take a nap.

When Gao Yuanda walked here and thought about what he was about to do, he calmed down and said in his heart: "I don't know if they know about me. Seeing how tired they are, it's just right. I don't have to deal with these people." The trap is close, and it will be more effective if you sneak past."

He made up his mind, took off his cumbersome uniform, knelt on the ground, and sneakily crawled over under the cover of the night.

The closer he got to the city gate, the faster Gao Yuanda sweated. Listening to the hissing in his ears, he got closer and closer to the city gate.

He finally climbed behind a wooden barrel near the city gate. Looking at the city gate not far away, Gao Yuanda weighed the wine jar in his hand. Thinking of the good days in the future, he couldn't help but smile.

Then, Gao Yuanda was heartbroken, stood up, said, "Fuck you!" and threw the wine jar towards the city gate.

With a loud noise, all the city guards woke up, and Gao Yuanda had already fled.

"The city gate! The city gate! It was blown open!" the guards shouted in horror.

After a burst of smoke, the ferocious faces of the monsters gradually emerged...

[Gaozhen·Xichengmen]

A horse galloped from the south.

"Young Master Qian, the defense of the southern city has been breached!" The visitor shouted from his horse before he could reach him.

When Qianqiu heard this, his heart skipped a beat and he thought to himself, "How could it be? Isn't Lao Yang there?"

The messenger arrived quickly and told what happened.

The officer guarding the city couldn't wait to say: "It must be that thief Gao Yuanda!"

The messenger said with a hint of helplessness: "Brothers are also helpless. They haven't been able to rest for several days in a row. Tonight, I looked outside and calmed down a little. I was hungry again. None of them noticed the thief approaching."

Qianqiu asked: "Isn't Lao Yang at the South City Gate? How could something happen?"

The reporter said: "It's strange to say that not long after Yang Shaoxia left, this man came."

Qianqiu thought for a while and said to himself: "This is inevitably too coincidental. Lao Yang could have fallen into the trap of diverting the tiger away from the mountain."

The messenger continued: "Qian Shaoxia, please go over immediately. If you have anything to say, we can talk on the way."

Qianqiu patted the reporter's shoulder and said to everyone: "Let's leave quickly! You leave a few people to strengthen the iron net behind the city gate. If it doesn't work, seal the west city gate! After sealing it, come to Nancheng for support! The rest will wait follow me."

Just because Qianqiu was carrying the iron net as big as the city gate by himself, none of the official guards present were dissatisfied. Besides, Gaotong also gave the order. Qianqiu and Yang Xian were both trustworthy people, so they naturally followed his orders. wrong.

Qianqiu took seven or eight people with him and hurried from Xicheng to Nancheng.

At this moment, the South City Gate was in a mess, and the broken iron mesh of the city gate collapsed to the ground. Many of the officials guarding the city have also turned into monsters, and monsters from outside are also pouring in, heading in all directions in the city.

When Qianqiu led a group of people to the other side of the river, he saw this scene from a distance.

"It's too late." The official beside Qianqiu said desperately.

Qianqiu looked at the entrance of Nancheng, then climbed up to the house on the street, stood on the roof and looked around, and then said: "Don't be discouraged, now you go and block all the bridges in the town. If you can, block them. If you can't, do it." Block it and smash it! Make sure that the West City, North City, and East City are not implicated. I will go to the gate of the South City and block the gate. Otherwise, if this continues, I don’t know how many monsters will enter the city. If they are not blocked outside the city, these monsters will always be killed. Not finished.”

The policeman on the side said: "Young hero, it is best to be careful."

Everyone knows how dangerous it is to block the flood mouth, and Qianqiu blocking the city gate at this time is like blocking the flood outlet.
