Eight days have passed since the funeral banquet in Yunzhong City. During these eight days, Ranchen and several of his guards seemed to have disappeared in the martial arts world, causing people in the world to take stock. In fact, people from all factions had Already keenly aware of the changes in the situation, behind this storm, there seemed to be an invisible hand secretly controlling it, and it quickly began to expand.
Gongsun He's second notice posted in the city and nearby counties caused an uproar among the people like a stone thrown into a calm lake.
After discovering the mark left by Ranchen for them, Nan Liluo and Feng Fanxiao finally met everyone in a dilapidated wooden house in the mountains and forests.
After a few days of training, the injuries of Ye Xinghe and Nan Liyu have improved a lot.
The second notice posted by Gongsun He also let them know that the time they really needed to face had arrived.
Gongsun He announced to the world——
Ranchen, the lord of Yunzhong City, wanted to have a larger territory in the world for his own selfish interests, so he did not hesitate to join forces with the dark forces in the world. However, he never wanted to divide the spoils evenly, which made the other party angry. He sent a killer to kill Yunzhong. city.
In order to successfully break through Yunzhong City, they placed many spies in the city for their use, so they succeeded so easily at the wedding banquet that night.
Naturally, there are different opinions on this notice.
The scorching sun hits the city wall with hundreds of pheasants, like a majestic pass.
The scorching sun after the beginning of summer made the soldiers standing guard on the city wall uncontrollably sweaty, but they did not dare to move at all and had no choice but to let the sweat flow freely behind them.
Gongsun He stood on the city wall, and the armor on his body reflected strongly in the sun.
Sun Tian took the umbrella handed over by his subordinates and wanted to shield Gongsun He from the scorching sun, but he raised his hand to stop him.
"How's the search going?"
Seeing that Gongsun He insisted on rejecting the umbrella in his hand, Sun Tian no longer insisted. After passing the umbrella in his hand to the soldier who had been waiting behind him, he bowed his hand to him: "Sir, five suspected spies have been captured. The people are now pressed under the city, waiting for your disposal."
Gongsun He looked up at the sky, and his eyes were almost burned by the strong sunlight.
"Tie the suspect to the city gate."
"yes."
Sun Tian, who took the order, hurriedly got off the tower. Within a moment, the heavy man was pushed away with a loud rumbling sound.
The people in the city gathered fifty steps away from the city gate. The unusual morning made them feel panic for no reason. They didn't even have time to get out of the stalls because the Xuanwei Army had already arrived in the dark of night last night. The so-called suspect was searched for in the city with great fanfare. But this morning, before it became clear, news came out that the person had been arrested. At this time, the brave people gathered around the street, wanting to find out.
Many soldiers formed a circle around the city gate, holding spears in their hands and looking around vigilantly, as if they were afraid that the surrounding people would gather around and cause unrest.
After a while, five people came over escorted by a group of soldiers, and there was a commotion in the crowd.
"Isn't that Xiaozhu?"
"Old Wu, isn't that the old Wu who kills pigs? What's going on?"
"Lao Zhang and I have been neighbors for almost 20 years. How could he be a spy?"
…………
…………
There were more and more surprised voices in the crowd, and they were getting more and more excited. Some people had begun to move forward, and their bodies were intentionally or unintentionally touching the spears used by the soldiers to resist the crowd.
"Everyone shut up."
A sharp shout came from the group of soldiers standing to escort the suspect.
For a moment, there was silence.
A middle-aged man wearing silver armor walked out from the group of soldiers and walked slowly in front of the onlookers. A pair of pure black eagle eyes looked at the people in front of him coldly, and his gaze swept across everyone like a cold arrow. The noisy crowd instantly fell silent, and the few people at the front even took a step back unconsciously.
"People's hearts are unpredictable. Do you know how many good people there are around you?" Sun Tian uttered a sentence coldly, "The city lord you worshiped like a god at the beginning is still leading wolves into the house, but he has abandoned you."
Among the crowd, some people who were familiar with each other suddenly stood close together and looked at each other, but they were unable to answer Sun Tian's words.
"Someone is coming."
"Vice General Sun." A soldier ran up.
"Push the pillar out of the city gate."
"yes."
After Sun Tian gave the order to his subordinates, he once again glanced coldly at the people in front of him, then turned around and climbed onto the tower again.
The sound of "boom, boom" came from the city wall.
The people watching were so frightened that they took a step back.
Five pillars that were close to the height of the building were placed on the cart and pushed out one by one. The huge pillars must be heavy, so even the strong soldiers had to use six people to push one. .
The cart pushing the pillars walked out of the city gate and arrived at the wide outside of the city.
Standing on the city wall, Gongsun He watched every move of the soldiers below the city, watching the pillars standing at the door like five Optimus Primes.
Under Gongsun He's gaze, five men were escorted by soldiers and walked out of the city gate. One by one, they were tied to the pillars at the city gate.
The sun above his head seemed to become more fierce. Gongsun He's forehead finally couldn't stand the heat, and slight beads of sweat began to appear.
"Sun Tian, what time is it?"
"General, it's already been a moment."
"Very good," Gongsun He raised his head and glanced into the distance, with a faint sneer on his lips, but it was hidden by his beard and no one noticed, "Let us see how compassionate the Lord of Yunzhong City really is. He has such a heart that he can let go of the people in his city."
He retreated from the city wall, and the shadow immediately made him feel a lot cooler. The soldiers brought a chair from nowhere. Gongsun He handed the sword in his hand to Sun Tian, touched the armor with his hand, and sat down. down.
This year's early summer seems to be even shorter. In the past, there were some cool days in early summer, but this year's early summer seems to have ended in just a few days. The surrounding trees have become a little wilted due to the scorching sun.
The five people tied to the pillars began to feel the pain of being burned by the scorching sun.
The younger men could still bear it, but the older men's faces had turned red due to the heat. They wanted to shout, but their mouths were tightly gagged with a piece of white cloth.
The soldiers who were originally guarding the surroundings began to gradually retreat into the city, but in a blink of an eye, except for the five people tied up, there was no one else outside the door.
