The ancient master used his spiritual power to activate some of the runes on his body. The activated runes were like winding snakes. They came to the surrounding walls through the ancient master's limbs, blended into the walls and disappeared.
These are "phantom symbols" and "insulating notes"
The ancient master borrowed the power of the "phantom charm" to create the illusion that "we are all asleep", and then used the "insulating note" to "separate the inside but not the outside" to prevent the content of the conversation from being leaked.
It can be said that their anti-investigation awareness is very strong.
After the arrangement was completed, Master Gu put on the black robe he had taken off before and sat down at the table again.
Bai Meng'an took out a thumb-sized stone from the space ring and placed it in the center. He put his thumb on it and injected spiritual power. The stone projected a one-to-one three-dimensional map of Xueyue City on the table.
"There are three hundred people in one team at the top and bottom of the city gate, a total of nearly ten teams of 3,000 people. The five teams at the top of the city gate and the three teams at the bottom of the city gate will meet one of the patrol teams every three hours. It is expected that every thirty-five Every hour there will be a vacancy of an hour.”
Yi Zifeng nodded in response to Master Gu’s information today.
"There are a total of one hundred and eighty-one streets and several alleys and secret passages in the city. The number of one team in the city is the same as the above. A total of twenty-five teams carry out day and night patrols. It is expected that every twenty days, six streets will be unmanned at night. vacancy"
Yi Zifeng also nodded in response to the information Bai Meng'an observed while shopping today.
"What's the economic situation in the city?" Yi Zifeng asked
"It's generally not high; the per capita daily income is about one hundred coppers, and the difference is around half a hundred, but the daily consumption is about two hundred coppers, so the residents in the city cannot make ends meet. Here..." Master Gu pointed to the upper left corner of the map
"It has turned into a real slum. Most of the homeless and moneyless people are here. The number is still increasing. The territory of the slum is still expanding, and the same people who have been annexed by aristocratic families are the same."
"Yeah" Yi Zifeng nodded.
"If this trend continues, it is expected that Xueyue City will be divided by various families into several small cities in twenty years..."
Yi Zifeng raised his hand to signal "stop"
"What will this city become in the end? What will it develop into? I'm not interested at all. What I'm interested in is sending "them" to the grave." Yi Zifeng clenched his fists
"Next item"
"After observing that most people in the city..."
"Dong dong dong" came a very soft sound from outside, which was similar to the sound made by walking on tiles.
The three people who heard the voice stopped talking, put away the stones on the table, and looked fierce, ready to enter the battle at any time.
Bai Meng'an came to the wall and began to observe through the dilapidated holes in the wooden house.
"Outside, Thirteen, black, chasing?, passing by" Bai Meng'an communicated with the two in sign language
Together they are "a total of thirteen people wearing black clothes outside, seeming to be chasing something, passing by here."
After Bai Meng'an finished the gesture, Bai Meng'an and Master Gu quietly looked at Yi Zifeng sitting on the chair, waiting for his comment.
Yi Zifeng thought for a while
Yi Zifeng stood up and said only four words
“Go and have a look”
"Yes" they both nodded in response.
———
"Huh-huh-"
Frequent gasps echoed in the dark streets. In the deserted streets, the two girls held each other's hands and ran desperately on the streets, as if something was chasing them, which frightened them and frightened them.
"This way"
The sisters ran from one street to that street and then to another street without stopping.
"ah!---"
The violent running caused the scabbed wounds on his body to reopen.
The blood from the wound dyed their white plain clothes red, but the pain caused by the wound did not slow down their running speed at all. Instead, it accelerated their speed and became faster.
There was a clear "tap-tat" sound from behind them. This sound was basically the same as the sound of stepping on the tiles, but this sound was softer, just like the sound made by stepping on the tiles with a lighter force.
Originally, the sound was incredibly light, but when they saw them running on the tiles at almost the same speed as the two sisters, it became even more confusing.
Chasing them were thirteen mysterious men dressed in black chasing them.
They don't know who the mysterious people are, let alone why they are chasing them. The only thing they know for sure is that they are not good people.
My sister looked at the men in black getting closer and closer to her. While running, she took out the folding bow on her waist and the "little black pill" in her pocket.
The "little black pill" is round and shiny, about the size of a thumb. It makes people wonder what it is. Is it a pill? Is it gunpowder? Or is it something else?
The elder sister only turned her head for a glance, then immediately turned around and raised her bow to shoot at one of them, just in time for that person to stay in the air while "crossing the roof".
When a person is in the air, there is no point of strength that can be used and there is no way to quickly defend the whole body. The whole body is weak. It can be said that entering the "floating" state without advance preparation is asking for death.
The man slowed down his breathing when he saw the ammunition being fired at him rapidly. The ammunition was like a weak animal in his hand, one that would break when touched. He knocked each round of ammunition vertically down to the ground. The four rounds of ammunition hit the ground and caused a "chain reaction", resulting in a huge explosion. He used the huge air pressure generated by the explosion to fly up to the roof and join the chasing team.
Although the clothes were burnt, it did not affect the black man's progress at all.
On the contrary, the bombed-out walls were in pieces, which not only woke up the sleeping residents, but also frightened a man and a woman who kept covering themselves with quilts on the bed.
"Who is it! I'm a bad guy but a good guy"
If it hadn't been for the explosion just now, they would have probably finished it. The man was still in bed cursing the people who ruined his good deeds, and he didn't know how many generations he had greeted them.
"That is……"
My sister unconsciously dilated her pupils in surprise when she saw the Kungfu used by that man.
"Tai Chi Yun Shou, so someone knows how to use it here? Could it be that... someone sent by Marquis Wu has been here before? Or... is he from Marquis Wu's sect?" My sister was thinking as she ran.
The intersection of yin and yang, the combination of hardness and softness, can become Tai Chi. It is said that Tai Chi produces all things.
Tai Chi Jin is a kind of Kung Fu that can transform thousands of kinds of strength, and Tai Chi Cloud Hands is one of the strengths that "conquer hardness with softness". It can dilute all things that are very difficult to control. In other words, Tai Chi Cloud Hands is the essence of Tai Chi and Tai Chi. One of the kung fu techniques.
The man in black used Tai Chi cloud hands to stop the explosion of gunpowder. Gunpowder is like small glass beads, very smooth, harmless and will not explode. When he let the gunpowder explode, the air pressure generated by the explosion was in his eyes. It's just a glutinous rice dumpling that you can pull and pull at will without any threat to you.
"It seems we have encountered a ruthless character this time, sister."
"Well, but...ah!"
"elder sister!"
The wounds on my sister's body continued to open and expand, and her whole body was dripping with blood. It was like there were many small nozzles installed, spraying blood constantly. She also looked extremely weak, and her face was as pale as a Japanese singer wearing heavy makeup. , scary white, not optimistic at all.
"It's okay," my sister said with bloody teeth, "Let's go"
The way my sister looks now, she could fall down at any time, and no one would doubt why.
Seeing my sister dragging her body covered in blood, running as hard as she can, not daring to slow down, and unwilling to stop no matter how painful or tired she is, how many relatives can watch this without feeling sad or distressed.
Compared to her elder sister, she only suffered some skin trauma and some deep scratches. If it weren't for her sister's protection, I probably wouldn't be able to run here "relaxed", but would have been hurt to death long ago.
"It's so cold! I really want to... sleep!..."
My sister's consciousness has reached the edge of collapse, and she may fall down if she is not careful.
"Sister..." Before the younger sister could finish her words, an explosive talisman tied to it appeared silently in front of the two sisters.
The speed of the arrow was so fast that even my elder sister, who had little skill in archery, only had a split second to see clearly what the arrow looked like.
Everything around Arrow was so slow. My younger sister was about to ask her elder sister, "Sister, are you really okay?", but the elder sister on the side slowly showed a scared expression and was about to shout "Sisi, it's dangerous!".
In the face of death, the passage of time seems so slow. No matter whether it is expressions or movements, everyone seems so stupid and ridiculous. No matter how fast or how slow time is, some things can never be changed.
"Bang"
A snap of the fingers awakened the long-lost enthusiasm and vitality of Explosive Talisman.
"Bang!" The blasting talisman exploded with an explosion that was completely incomparable to the explosion created by his sister Kuromaru just now.
The pause in time has been broken, and the ashes of victory have resounded in the sky, completely declaring the winner of this "cat and mouse" game.
The igniter stood on a tall building a hundred meters away, watching everything, looking at the big hole on the ground that he had blown up, feeling a little excited.
