I Am Immortal In The Cultivation World
Chapter 31 Ruined City of Beijiang
Among the jungle.
Countless bandits lurk secretly, staring coldly at the prison car below.
Woo - Chirp -
Rhythmic birdsong sounded, and the bloodthirsty light flashed in the bandit's eyes, and he sprang out from behind stones, bushes, trees and other places.
"Brother, borrow your clothes."
A voice sounded behind a certain bandit, and before he could look back, it was completely silent.
Zhou Yi put on his clothes, used his mana to perform bone-changing skills, and after changing his face shape, he was supplemented with a disguise technique, which was almost like a dead bandit.
at this time.
The forbidden army on the mountain road has already discovered something strange.
Seeing the birds flying in the mountains, Yang Shou, the commander of the imperial army, waved his hand to stop the march, and ordered the scouts to go to the mountains to investigate.
After waiting for a long time for the scouts to come back, they already concluded that there was an ambush in the mountains.
"Array, meet the enemy!"
Yang Shou led the elite imperial guards, quickly gathered the prison cars and formed a circular formation to stand by.
"Hahaha! Heaven is above! I am the protector of the Heavenly King, and today I will kill all butcher Li's clansmen and offer sacrifices to the Heavenly King!"
Deafening laughter came, and then dozens of huge boulders flew from the mountain, raining down on the army formation.
"Catapult!"
Yang Shou exclaimed, before he had time to evacuate the army formation, the boulder had already fallen on his head.
The boulder thrown from the mountain was so powerful that human beings could not resist it, and when it hit the crowd, screams could be heard endlessly.
After three or four consecutive rounds of boulders, the formation of the imperial army was broken up.
"Kill! Kill..."
The sound of charging and killing sounded from the mountains on both sides, and there were at least thousands of people listening to the sound.
Yang Shou shouted loudly: "Array, array!"
The imperial army barely reorganized their formation, and arrows rained down on them, causing heavy casualties.
"Fend off the enemy!"
Despair flashed in Yang Shou's eyes, not because he was afraid of the number of enemies, but because he had other guesses in his mind.
There are at least a dozen catapults and archers in the establishment system, which bandits or rebels can afford to support, and the other party deliberately shouted about their origins, which is obviously an excuse.
As soon as the imperial army and the bandits came into contact with each other, they noticed something strange.
The dignified Imperial Army is an elite army that trains and beats its muscles and bones every day, but in the end its strength is no match for the tyrannical bandits.
Yang Shou used Zhanger's long spear to kill several bandits, and he could see clearly that the imperial army was retreating steadily.
"I can't die like this!"
The commander had already had the idea of retreating, how could the soldiers under his command fight to the death, whether it was intentional or forgotten, there were no bandits blocking the mountain road.
Therefore, after Yang Shou took the lead in fleeing on horseback, the imperial army fled forward and backward one after another.
The bandit's goal was the prison car, and instead of chasing and killing the imperial army, they brandished weapons and slaughtered prisoners.
The Li family members in the prison car were shackled on their hands and feet, unable to resist at all, and could only be slaughtered before their eyes.
In the mountains and forests.
Zhou Yi carried the young Li Hong and stood on the branch.
"It's time to go, check the bones later, maybe you will find something strange."
During the scuffle between the Imperial Army and the bandits, Zhou Yi took advantage of the chaos to rescue Li Hong, and left a bandit with a similar build and a broken face in the prison car.
"Senior, wait a moment, I want to watch the clansman die with my own eyes, so that I can remember this hatred even more deeply!"
Li Hong didn't cry or grieve at all. He heard his mother, brother, and relatives wailing and screaming, each of them died under the knife of bandits.
After a while.
All the members of the Li clan died, the bandits opened the prison cart and laid out the corpses one by one.
A few people in long gowns came out of the bandits, and after counting the number, some of them were corpses with bloody faces, and their body shapes and clothes were carefully identified.
"It's the Jiangnan family who made the move."
Zhou Yi heard the conversation of several gowns clearly, and said, "They didn't suspect you, they just thought it was a serious face injury during the scuffle."
"Those are my uncle Li Chi, my cousin Li Yi, and my cousin Li Liang. They are only one or two years younger than me, and they are about the same size. The elder brother is very careful, and he sent someone to disfigure their faces for fear that I would be hunted down by Jin Yiwei. "
Li Hong's voice was calm and unwavering, only his eyes were red and bloodshot.
"To be honest, I am more optimistic about your brother. Whether it is a disfigured or a hands-on person, they probably don't know the purpose of your brother doing this!"
Holding Li Hong's skirt, Zhou Yi disappeared into the forest in a few vertical leaps.
...
Northern Xinjiang.
deserted city.
You can tell from the name that it is a place of bitter cold.
The exiled prisoners of Fengyang State are all here, and there is an iron mine nearby, which has been dug until death or amnesty.
The sound of horseshoes woke up the soldiers on duty.
"Stop!"
The soldiers drew their knives one after another, and stopped the two cavalry who were roaring: "What are you doing in the deserted city?"
"Visiting an old friend."
Zhou Yi fell from his horse, and Gu Lulu dropped two ingots of silver: "Huh? Big brother, your silver has fallen!"
"ah?"
It seems that the city gate officials have never encountered such a brazen bribery person. Even the officials who don't want to be shameless, handing over money and receiving money are all sneaky.
Disgusting, even if you cover your face?
The city gate officer felt contemptuous, but moved very quickly. He stepped forward to pick up the silver, wiped it, and stuffed it into his bosom: "Who is this gentleman looking for?"
Zhou Yi said: "I only know that the surname is Wei, from Yuzhou, about thirty-six years ago in Chongming."
The city gate official drew a long voice: "I've been young for thirty years, how do I know if I'm still alive, it's not easy!"
Zhou Yi flicked his cuff and dropped two more ingots of silver.
The city gate official said helplessly: "You go to the city to look for Liu San. He is in charge of the miners from Yuzhou. As long as he is still alive, he will definitely find him."
Zhou Yi took out two ingots of silver from his arms: "Is there a way to meet and arrange some easy work?"
The city gate official just felt hot: "Then you have to go to the yamen to find the housekeeper, and you can go to the yamen to do handyman for money."
Zhou Yi continued to pass the money: "Is there anything else that needs attention?"
"Grandpa, atmosphere!"
The city gate officer patted his chest: "I'll take you to do business, not to mention looking for someone, just take someone out of the deserted city."
Zhou Yi asked in surprise, "Can you still take it away?"
"You don't understand this. If you can't take it away, how can those people die every year in the mine?"
The city gate officer ordered the soldiers under his command to stand guard and not let the thieves enter the city, so he took Zhou Yi and the two into the city.
The walls and ruins of the city were ruined, the streets were overgrown with weeds, and not even a single person could be seen. The shops on both sides were empty, and the broken windows and doors squeaked and creaked like ghosts when the wind blew.
"This was originally the frontier army station, and it was quite prosperous back then. Now that the frontier army has gone to Yizhou, there is only an empty city left..."
The city gate officer seemed to feel guilty about collecting the money, so he took the initiative to act as a tour guide, narrating the historical changes of the deserted city.
"Look at the Jujiangtai, where Duke Zhen used to beat drums..."
"This tavern has fine wine from Shenjing. Every time Lord Zhen Guo comes back from a victory, he will come to drink it..."
"..."
Nine out of ten of what the city gate officials said had something to do with Lord Zhen Guo, and only when he arrived in northern Xinjiang did he know how famous Li Wu was and how far-reaching his influence was.
According to what the city gate officer said, Li Hong seems to have seen his father gathering soldiers on the general platform and drinking freely in the tavern.
Zhou Yi patted Li Hong on the shoulder, and said via voice transmission: "Remember your elder brother's instructions!"
Li Hong nodded slightly, restraining his emotions.
"Don't worry, sir, I will change my surname to Zhou before Jin Xiantian."
The role of silver in the deserted city is greater than Zhou Yi expected.
After being recommended by the city gate official, Steward Sun of the housekeeper was very reasonable and offered a price directly.
"One thousand taels for the one who is alive, and an extra two hundred taels for the household registration, no one cheats!"
