After A Yi left, Xie Nanshi looked at Song Yu again: "It's just that I still don't understand. What is the reason for the people from the Ping An Department to do this?"
To Lin Ting, besides being useful, Song Yu was also his beloved nephew. For Song Chengwei, Song Yu is his most beloved son. No matter what Song Yu's situation is, personal safety will not be a big problem.
Song Yu nodded: "So there is a third party here."
"Calling people in vain?"
"That's right. Their young city lord died because of me. They can't defeat Song Chengwei head-on. Who wouldn't pinch me, a soft persimmon with no cultivation level, when I come to your doorstep?" Song Yu smiled bitterly and shook his head, "I didn't expect that I would be like this It really hurts the self-esteem of a powerful player to be treated as such a soft-footed shrimp."
Xie Nanshi thought carefully for a while and found that he was indeed in the game. He said, "Yes. You are dead. At the beginning of the battle between the two cities, Bai Zhao first took away a young city lord of Tianyong City. There is nothing like this." This can boost military morale even more.”
"If you hadn't shown such a trick yesterday, the other party wouldn't have engaged in such a conspiracy - of course, I guess the other party didn't expect that Tang Ya and I had such a good relationship." Song Yu touched his chin and suddenly felt that he Although the trip to Demon Suppression Pass was delayed for a long time, it should be regarded as a side mission. Even if Jie Nanshi is not by his side in this round, with Tang Ya's cautious temperament, he can be relied upon, and the subsequent development may turn into a werewolf killing situation in the Ping An Department.
Song Yu was thinking about the past, but Xie Nanshi was thinking about the future: "The change in Zou Ye may also have something to do with this Bai Zhao spy."
"I just don't know if the other party has a way to leave Zou Ye safely, or if he is trapped here, waiting to die with us." Song Yu sighed.
I don’t know when it started, but the two of them always had a tacit understanding of being able to continue what the other said. But for Song Yu, this meant that his thigh was tied more firmly.
"What should we do next?" Song Yu let out a long breath and looked at Jie Nanshi. His judgment of Zou Ye's situation was too rough. As for the details of what should be done first and then what to do next, he still had to rely on Xie Nanshi's judgment.
Xie Nanshi also understood what Song Yu meant. He pulled the person behind him and asked Song Yu to put on the protective talisman with extreme caution before taking a deep breath.
"Broken—" The sound and the sword energy suddenly exploded, and the fog in front of his eyes immediately dissipated, revealing the desolate streets of Zouye. Song Yu suddenly felt that his breathing became much smoother, but after looking at his status, there was no debuff. It seemed that walking in the fog for a short time would not endanger his life so quickly.
Although the fog dissipated, Xie Nanshi's mantra and sword energy did not completely dissipate. Instead, they shook the fog, causing it to create ripples layer by layer. This skill was so thorough that Song Yu even suspected that all the survivors of Zou Ye and those Bai Zhao spies could hear it.
…
"What a sound that knocks the mountain and shakes the tiger..." A man with a sword stopped his progress, with both surprise and admiration in his eyes.
Ah Yi's eyebrows were beaming: "I told you a long time ago, but you still don't believe me."
"Such a giant beast can be killed with a single sword. No one will believe it if you tell me this." Another rough man muttered, "And that little chicken, is he really our young master?"
This group of people is naturally the Zou Ye city defenders whom Song Domain encountered just now. Ah Yi went back to meet them, and when she spoke about what she had just seen and heard, everyone thought she was lost in the fog and was telling stories in her mind.
"Why are you lying to me? With such a cultivation level, he is even more generous than the legendary city lord." Ah Yi's eyes lit up when he thought of the plain-looking swordsman, "Think about it. Although that person has no cultivation level, he has With so many magical treasures and talismans, and with such a master around me, my identity must not be simple, so why bother coming to such a ghost place to lie and deal with us?"
Just as the leader was about to say something, he suddenly looked solemnly and looked at Jie Nanshi and Song Yu. He hardly hesitated. Although he was wearing armor, he knelt down and bowed in full ceremony: "Zheng Yao, a humble official, has met the young city lord. I didn't know the identity of the young city lord before, and I have offended him. Please forgive me."
Although the people following Zheng Yao had already expected it in their hearts, they did not expect that Zheng Yao would perform such a grand ceremony, and one after another they also followed him and bowed down. Most of them knelt down on one knee in military salute, and those in light clothes also followed Zheng Yao's full salute.
Song Yu understood that most of the credit for his identity being suddenly convinced by these people was Xie Nanshi's. But being convinced and being loyal are two different things. Zou Ye is now in danger, and all the defenders are frightened. Being able to give Song Yu this face is a sign that his sanity has not collapsed.
Song Yu stretched out his hand to help Zheng Yao up: "He who doesn't know is not guilty, and there is no need to use so many etiquette when going out."
Zheng Yao hesitated for a moment, then thanked him and stood up, but lowered his head very low, as if he didn't dare to look directly at Song Yu and Xie Nanshi.
Song Yu just helped him up, and then retreated to Jie Nanshi, not paying attention to the other people who were still kneeling. Now that he has become the young city lord, he has to act like a young city lord, lest these people who had drawn swords against him before really think he has no temper.
What's more, according to common sense, Song Dynasty should not forgive them. Neither cold nor hot, they would be more accepting of Zou Ye first.
Song Yu and Xie Nanshi looked at each other. The latter signaled Song Yu to come forward, and Song Yu knew that Xie Nanshi wanted to continue to hide Feng. It is estimated that if Xie Nanshi had a chance to obtain the human skin mask props earlier, Song Yu would not have discovered Xie Nanshi's behavior from the beginning. The NPC is unusual. He looked at Zheng Yao and asked: "What's Zou Ye's condition now? How many survivors are there?"
Zheng Yao was silent for a moment, then sighed and said, "There are still four thousand survivors in Zou Ye."
There were more than 300,000 people, and now there are only 4,000 left... Song Yu's heart tightened, and he couldn't bear to let these people kneel anymore: "Everyone, get up. Where are the survivors now?"
"Here..." Zheng Yao was about to speak, but was grabbed by the woman beside him.
That woman was the female general who danced with guns and flowers before, and among the people, she was the most wary of Song Yu. She shook her head slowly: "Brother Yao, be careful."
Zheng Yao obviously didn't agree with the female general's views. Beside Song Yu, Xie Nanshi suddenly said: "It's in the east? It's not too far from here... How did you survive in this fog?"
Song Yu silently gave Xie Nanshi a thumbs-up gesture behind his back, with an arrogant expression on his face. He looked at the horror in the eyes of this group of people with satisfaction: "My disciples and I are here just to save you. We really think we are useless." You guys just randomly bumped into each other and found you by chance?"
Everyone was silent again. Yes, it was true that they were sorry for this guy with unknown origins. The other party helped them fight monsters and they suspected his identity and almost killed him, but they really didn't know Song Yu's identity at the time. It was better to be cautious. Besides, this guy's bad mouth is a bit irritating.
Although Ah Yi, who has almost become Jie Nanshi's fanboy, is at the back of the team, his whole body is shaking slightly, and finally he can't hold it in anymore: "Sister Lin, the fog will not dissipate until the people in the city die. Today's Zou Ye It’s almost like an empty city, why not take a gamble!”
"What you said is really unpleasant." Song Yu looked very hurt, "How do you believe that I am really here for reinforcements? Otherwise, I will let you meet the people from the Security Department first. Correct the identity, correct the password, and then we start again?”
"If you are really a mediocre person," the female general known as Sister Lin said, "you shouldn't have known that the Department of Security and the Army are not on the same line. Even if they meet, they can't prove it."
Song Yu's eyes darkened. Is there such a thing? He was already about to open the customer service box and continue to cause trouble for Ye Jiao.
"I heard that Young City Master Song Yu is a idiot. It's normal if you don't know." A Yi said.
Song Yu: "Thank you."
Ah Yi smiled and said, "You're welcome."
Song Yu was a little confused, and he didn't know whether A Yi's yin and yang was a strange thing. What's even more outrageous is that the female general actually accepted this reason!
Song Yu's mouthful of old blood made him want to spray it in her face.
In the end, it was Zheng Yao who made the final decision: "As the shield of our team, Ranshu is always cautious and prudent. I have offended you so much, so please forgive me, Young City Lord. Although the Ping An Department is very different from the army, they can still tell whether it is true or not." The Department of Peace and Security of Yong. Zhou Qi, you come with me."
Zhou Qi immediately came out to say yes.
Lin Ranshu's eyes immediately showed surprise, and even a little urgency. She obviously wanted to try to dissuade her again, but Zheng Yao ordered: "If I leave here and never come back, Ranshu will be your leader from now on."
At this time, not only Lin Ranshu, but also everyone else had expressions of concern, and shouts of "Boss" and "Brother Yao" were heard everywhere.
Song Yu picked his ears and couldn't help but interrupt their tragic farewell atmosphere: "Just find a safe person, not a dragon's pool and a tiger's den, so that we won't have to part ways."
Only then did Zheng Yao realize that he had said the wrong thing: "Young City Lord, I have no intention of being humble. It's just this mist..."
He obviously rarely needed to speak so quickly, so he bit his tongue suddenly and choked on the blood. He was coughing so much that he could only communicate with his eyes. But Zheng Yao was a man with a dark complexion, and now his face was dark and red, and his muscles were as tight as his eyes. He looked at Song Yu eagerly, making Song Yu's skin crawl.
Song Yu waved his hand and stopped Zheng Yao from continuing: "Okay, no need to explain, you decide for yourself. Soldiers are fast, so hurry up. Otherwise, who knows how many of the remaining four thousand people will be left? "
He didn't have much patience to waste it. Anyway, Jin Thigh was here. The worst he could do was let Jin Thigh make a talisman and follow the group back to find the stronghold of the survivors.
Zheng Yao sighed and looked at Lin Ranshu worriedly, but finally said: "Ranshu is with me, you go back first."
