The changes in the city walls made Feng Yu Heng's scalp tingle. Even Xuan Tianming realized that he had made a grave mistake.
Songzhou City's city walls were hollow.
Countless flippers moved from the ground, one after another. Soldiers poked their heads out, but they didn't charge forward. Instead, they raised their bows and fired at the two of them.
Although Feng Yu Heng had already seen that they weren't tracking arrows, the other side had the advantage of having more people and arrows, as well as the clever use of the city walls' mechanisms. The rain of arrows tore through the snow and wind, instantly separating her and Xuan Tianming.
The two of them pulled out their whips and continuously waved them to block the arrows. At the same time, they desperately wanted to get closer. Xuan Tianming even waved his cloak behind him, rolling up bundle after bundle of arrows, but they still continued to shoot at them.
Finally, the two of them got closer. Feng Yu Heng heard Xuan Tianming shout, "Think of a way to jump down the city walls." After saying this, he suddenly used his qinggong and flew down the city walls. He chose the direction of the city. As he flew, his body twisted and turned strangely, cleverly avoiding all the arrows that were shot at him.
Feng Yu Heng understood that the reason he chose to jump first was because he didn't want to be a burden to her. Xuan Tianming knew that if the two of them separated, she wouldn't be able to hide with him in her space. And Feng Yu Heng definitely wouldn't allow herself to hide without him. So he jumped first, and Feng Yu Heng could use her space to follow him.
She did indeed do this. As soon as Xuan Tianming jumped, she immediately covered her right wrist with her left hand and entered her space. Then, using the space's distance, she appeared again and again. Finally, not long after Xuan Tianming landed, she also landed beside him.
As soon as the two of them met, they immediately clasped their hands. They used so much strength that it was like they wanted to squeeze each other into their palms and never let go.
Xuan Tianming quickly retreated with her, rushing towards the main street of the city to get away from the archers on the wall.
However, after running for a while, they realized that the enemy did not rush out from the flippers to continue shooting. In the blink of an eye, the city wall was silent again.
However, the silence was only temporary. Soon, the ice and snow on the ground bulged up again. Countless soldiers raised their swords like evil spirits that had crawled out of hell. In the blink of an eye, they had surrounded the two of them. At the same time, the sound of drums and bugles could be heard from an unknown place. The army kept changing their formation according to the rhythm of the drums and bugles. They were arranged in a strange way, layer after layer, like a moving human wall.
Feng Yu Heng and Xuan Tianming stood back to back, cautiously watching this change. After a while, they heard Xuan Tianming say: "It's Qian Zhou's thousand wall formation."
She was puzzled. "What is the Thousand Wall Array?"
He said: "It's a formation of at least five thousand people. It uses the beat of the drums and the sound of the horns to complete the formation."
While he spoke, the sound of the drums became even louder. Feng Yu Heng watched as a group of soldiers suddenly stabbed forward with their swords. Tens of swords were aimed at her. Even if she nimbly dodged, her clothes were still cut open by one of the swords.
Xuan Tianming protected her and said in a deep voice: "Be careful. If there's really no other way, just enter the space."
Feng Yu Heng shook her head, "No, it's too obvious. Moreover, we can't just stay in there and not come out. Do you have a good understanding of the Thousand Wall Array? Do you know how to break it? "
While the two were speaking, the enemy began to move once more. This time, the second and third rows of soldiers took advantage of the fact that the first row of soldiers was half-bent to bring their weapons forward. The second row stabbed forward, while the third row grabbed the feet of the second row. They did not care whether or not they stabbed, as they dragged the soldiers back.
The horn sounded once more, and the troops turned once more.
Feng Yu Heng was irritated: "Turning around is giving me a headache."
"This is also one of the methods of the Thousand Wall Array." Xuan Tianming spoke while looking around, "These soldiers are not scary. The most important thing is to find the person controlling the array. The drummer and the horn player are the key." Although he said this, the person controlling the array was always hidden in the most hidden places. Wanting to find them in this snowstorm was easier said than done.
The large array continued to change, and wave after wave of attacks came. Under the attacks, Xuan Tianming had no choice but to give up on finding the person controlling the array and focus on the battle.
Feng Yu Heng knew that there was no way to continue like this. She was also an expert in formations. As long as the person controlling the array was still present, the large array would be invulnerable. With a few thousand soldiers against the two of them, it would be strange if they did not die of exhaustion.
She retreated to Xuan Tianming's side and used him to cover her body. Xuan Tianming saw this and immediately protected her. Very quickly, he saw Feng Yu Heng pull out a strange item from her sleeve and put it on her glasses. He did not know what it was, but seeing Feng Yu Heng begin to look around after putting it on, he knew that it was something that would be useful in finding the person controlling the array.
In truth, his guess was correct. Feng Yu Heng was wearing a pair of reconnaissance glasses. Not only did they have better penetrative power, they also had the ability to use binoculars. They could see things ten li away. Things that Xuan Tianming could not see, when she put on these glasses, could not be seen clearly. At the very least, she could see faint shadows.
Very quickly, a nine-storied tower in the northeast attracted her attention. That was the tallest building in Song Zhou City. At this moment, every floor of the nine-storied tower was filled with people and surrounded by drums. The sound of the drums came from that place, accompanied by the Wolf Bone Horn. When the sound entered her ears, it directly affected her heart.
"Over there!" She pointed in the direction of the tower and said to Xuan Tianming, "Think of a way to get closer. I have a way to deal with them."
Xuan Tianming knew that if Feng Yu Heng said she had a way, then she definitely had a way. His evil lips slightly curved as he pulled the little girl into his embrace and said in a clear voice, "Hold on tight. Husband will take you over there!"
As soon as his voice fell, Feng Yu Heng felt her feet leave the ground in an instant. Under the encirclement of thousands of soldiers, Xuan Tianming directly used qinggong to leap up. At the same time, he waved his long whip and created a gap in the air.
However, the soldiers in the Thousand Wall Array had already anticipated that they would choose qinggong. They only heard the sound of the bugle horn change and the Thousand Wall Array's human walls were erected. One by one, the soldiers stood shoulder to shoulder. In the blink of an eye, they formed a human wall that was as tall as the array. Xuan Tianming's whip created a gust of wind and water. The human wall could not withstand this kind of destruction and collapsed one by one.
But no matter how he fell, the enemy had more people. More and more people came forward to fill in the gaps. Gradually, Xuan Tian Ming's whip began to slow down, and the tip of the enemy's sword brushed past his hair, cutting off a small lock. But immediately, the long whip became a thorn and stabbed into the left side of the person holding the sword.
Feng Yu Heng stared straight at the tower and said in a deep voice, "That's enough. It's here. Go a bit higher, go a bit higher!"
Xuan Tianming followed her instructions and continued to circulate his qi to increase the height. Finally, Feng Yu Heng raised her right hand and aimed at the top of the tower. With a "bang" sound, she fired a shot. The bullet flew through the air and shocked the people in the Thousand Wall Array into chaos.
The bullet accurately hit the forehead of the person beating the drum at the top of the tower. That person fell down from the top of the tower without any warning.
Xuan Tianming was about to shout "Good!" when he saw another person coming out from the top of the tower. He immediately filled in the gap of that person. The sound of the drums, which had become chaotic because of the lack of a drummer, quickly returned to normal.
"Beat the drums, don't beat the people!" Xuan Tianming saw the trick and said anxiously, "The drums used in the Thousand Wall Array are human skin drums. We don't have too many. Beat the drums, beat a few more."
After Feng Yu Heng failed to beat the people, she immediately thought of beating the drums. As soon as Xuan Tianming said that, she immediately swung her gun and shot at the drums in her line of sight.
"Bang, bang, bang, bang!" After several gunshots, the drums were destroyed, the sound stopped, and the array was in chaos.
Xuan Tianming used his qinggong to continuously change his position. After Feng Yu Heng finished firing a magazine of bullets, she immediately pulled out another gun and continued firing.
During this time, the enemy changed three rounds of drums. In the end, all of them were destroyed. Only the faint sound of the drums could be heard from the back of the tower, but it could no longer support the activation of the array. The array of thousands of people suddenly lost the command to control it. The collapse could not be stopped.
Xuan Tianming laughed loudly. With one hand holding his wife and the other waving his whip, he chased and beat without restraint!
Feng Yu Heng raised her small chin and said arrogantly: "Say, does this count as beating a dog while it's down?" After saying this, she shook her head to herself, "The people of Qian Zhou are not as good as dogs."
At this time, in the nine-storey tower, in the cabinet on the top floor, Duan Mu An Guo was currently pointing at a woman sitting lazily across from him and loudly cursing: "Are you blind? Can't you see that so many people have died? Where are your people? Where are your drums? Why don't you call someone to replace them? "
That woman was dressed in a bright red robe. Her beauty was unparalleled. Faced with Duan Mu An Guo's anxiousness and cursing, she still had an appearance of not caring, only asking him: "Do you think that people don't care about their lives? Do you think that drums don't cost money? Why should I use my people and my drums to fill up your hole in Song Zhou? Duan Mu An Guo, what sort of dog are you? You actually dare to point fingers at I? "
This woman was none other than the Lotus King who infuriated people to death. Duan Mu An Guo had already exploded with anger. Not only did she not care, she even held a fruit in her hand and took a bite out of it.
Faced with this sort of question, Duan Mu An Guo rolled his eyes. He always felt that the anger in his heart could not be vented. It was very stifling. He told Prince Lian: "Don't forget, it was Qian Zhou's ruler that ordered you to help me defend the North. If Song Zhou City is lost, I want to see how you will explain it to the ruler!"
"You scared me to death! You scared me to death!" Prince Lian patted his chest and acted as if he was frightened. "Monarch! What a great official. Hahahaha! " She suddenly began to laugh loudly. She was so arrogant that even Duan Mu An Guo had to take three steps back to avoid her, "Qian Zhou's ruler, that brat can barely even protect himself. How could he still care about you."
"Hm?" Duan Mu An Guo was stunned, "What do you mean by that?" Qian Zhou's ruler could not even protect himself? Had this Prince Lian gone crazy?
"There's not much meaning." Prince Lian smirked and stood up with a sneer, "Duan Mu An Guo, think about it carefully. Why was the excavation of the dragon vein in Jiang Zhou stopped? Why was it that aside from I's subordinates, all of the soldiers were pulled back to Qian Zhou? Think about it carefully. I will be going to see an old friend! "
After she finished speaking, she turned around and walked out of the tower.
