Four hundred and fortieth chapters Tianqing 13
The people still heard the screams of those people before they struggled to death, and all kinds of screams and curses that were gradually weak.
Even though they had thanked me very sincerely and promised that as long as they could escape and return to their hometown in Qingzhou, they would do their best to protect me for a future and a new background. I did not hesitate to lead these people into a path of death.
With a whisper, the cry of Schrödinger, a living alarm, called me back from the precipitation of my memory. Because it was the cold winter, the heavy biogas that was once filled with the air was so thin that it was so faint that I could not hear. Therefore, I could continue to explore with confidence.
Then, I saw more corpses deep in the alley, big and small, new and old, stacked together in a terrifying manner.
The black holes that were eaten by insects and rats, and the final postures left before death, seemed to be silently telling the past. It seems that over the years, the residents of Luodu have regarded this place as a catacomb with some kind of abandoned corpses.
I walked silently to a thick stone slab. The marks carved by "I" were still in my eyes. At the command, the personal soldiers stepped forward and waved various tools to clear out a space.
I shoveled off the brick surface covered by thick moss and cemented mud, and finally revealed the faint traces of the vertical eye in the triangle. If I didn't look carefully, the commander thought it was just a special wall-colored stain. This is the symbol that has been bothering me in the nightmare for a long time, and it is also my predecessor. I have been exploring and pursuing clues for many years in Luodu. Now I finally have the opportunity to find out.
As one of the engineering projects left over from the Lianggong era, Luodu's underground pipeline network is undoubtedly a very large project, with various complexities such as spider webs that are enough for anyone who is not prepared to get lost in it.
However, in the face of the collective force called the army, these difficulties and inconveniences become clouds.
This place is not far from the famous Liangyuan site in history. Therefore, according to my personal speculation, these extremely vast pipe networks in the sewers may exist secretly as some kind of backup choice for escape.
But suddenly, except for Emperor Zhengding of the Southern Dynasty, no one else could escape, so this place was no longer useful and continued to be covered in dust.
In order to pursue the remains left by Liang Gong, my predecessor was particularly dedicated to Luodu's sewer network, but unexpectedly it became the key to finally escape.
At the beginning, my predecessor was eager to plan a escape, so he couldn't help but miss something. Later, on the way back, I couldn't help but think of some fragmented clues one after another, but I've never had the key points. Now I've verified it several times.
There are one and two, and more similar symbols hidden in mottled moss marks are found and formed into a specific direction and guide. After leaving behind wind lights as road signs in the fork in the alleyway, we continue to grop forward.
It was the dry season of winter, and several inlets were frozen again, so the ground that the footsteps were much more refreshing and hard. Soon, the mark disappeared in front of a wall without any warning.
I was not disappointed with this, but was a little surprised, which also meant that some truth and purpose were right in front of me.
As the enlarged crack was drilled through and the retaining wall fell down, dust flew up and revealed a hidden deep space. Under the illumination of several wind lights that only adjusted to the maximum brightness,
Apart from the air that seemed a little dirty because of the long-term closure, the soldiers who were trapped in the path exploration did not encounter any unnecessary mechanisms or mysterious traps. For example, the subsidence pits, the stones falling from the ceiling, the crossbow arrows shot from the walls, the swords and axes flying in the air, the rumbling walls, and the torches that burn without wind.
The only thing that may worry me is that the river water backflow caused by natural terrain, and also because of the low water level and freezing in winter, it becomes unlikely. As for the quicksand trap, sorry, this is a metropolis rather than a desert maze.
The legend is that countless people are fooling around, and countless people are desperate. The so-called Liang Gong treasure is presented to me. Within a small space of only two or three feet wide, there are only a few rows of bookcase shelves that have been covered with dust over the years, and there are also vague and indistinguishable index catalogs on the shelves.
Then there is nothing else,
When I was knocking on the four walls to find possible hidden mechanisms and spaces, I also found that there were not obvious secret messages on the stone wall, and used some sloppy self to describe the origin of this secret room in an understatement.
These were the books that Mr. Liang read the most during his lifetime, so they were stored here and left clues, waiting for those who are destined to discover and appreciate them.
Well, this discovery and result made me speechless again with the malicious interest of that time traveler senior.
Fortunately, although most of the books in these cabinets have not been tested by hundreds of years and are decayed and become a pile of gray and white debris residues with a slight touch, there are still some objects of special texture that can be preserved among these debris residues. They have become souvenirs that I unexpectedly obtained.
For example, the most conspicuous large piece of debris is a large volume marked in detail. The picture of Luodu underground network is made of fire-resistant and corrosion-resistant asbestos texture and special dyes to maintain its original state for a long time.
This discovery alone is enough to compensate for my exogenous actions. Although hundreds of years later, as a multi-line diagram of the underground pipeline network, there have been many changes, but in the general direction, we can still refer to it in detail.
When I returned to the base, I found that someone had already sent the message to the Baima Temple station with a sled.
Shortly after our team set off, under the leadership of Zhao Long, more than 10,000 left-behind soldiers defended the camp and repelled several more times. The large-scale and momentum of Hu Ma'er attack was far less than the first one. It was obviously the center of gravity and direction of their activities, and it had begun to shift.
Therefore, after obtaining preliminary contact with the scouts sent by Shangdongmen, Zhao Long took the risk of organizing a sled transport team from several miles away, mainly composed of the Yunzhou soldiers who were used to living in the north. He traveled through the vast snowfield without any danger and transported us a batch of filled turbulent oil and hundreds of barrels of medicine.
At the same time, behind the confrontational front, the Northern Army stationed in Duantan Temple
"Stay good at preserving strength?"
Yang Keshi looked at the person who was secretly visiting in surprise.
"I don't know where the Ministry of War will start..."
"Eunuch Yang is one of the few meritorious ministers in our dynasty, and he is also the only remaining leader of the Imperial Taoist sect..."
The visitor looked at him without showing any weakness
"Don't you want to think about it behind you..."
"Now the enemy has not yet gone,..."
Yang Keshi said solemnly
"It's too bad for all the officials in the court to think about these things."
"Then you think so about the future situation in the country and the dynasty..."
The person who came continued
"After this battle...even if all the thieves in the south go"
"The paths in the northern part are also eroded..."
"Now that the national crisis has not yet been resolved, we should work hard to serve the country..."
Yang Keshi frowned and decided.
"It depends on which country you serve and whose world is..."
The visitor analyzed calmly
"Even if you slowly clean up the country in the future... do you think the country still has enough strength to restore Xu Tu"
"Now the nine sides are all in vain, and they are all vassals outside the frontier galloping and traveling..."
"Do you think the remaining people will easily miss this opportunity..."
"In the clouds during this period, there may be some residuals in Pinglu Town, but they are trying hard to protect themselves but are unable to do anything outside..."
"For at least a few years, the north of the river was full of fishy winds and smelly, and most of them were no longer owned by the state dynasty..."
"The roads south of the river are also the decay of people's livelihood and the rest of the world are waiting to be rebuilt, and bandits and hungry people are rampant."
"Therefore, as the few generals in Luodu, the army still have a handful of troops, it seems extremely precious..."
"Besides, Mr. Yang is open-minded and selfless, but he may not be able to prevent and eliminate troubles. Some villains' hearts are slanting and suspicious..."
"I can only say this, I hope Mr. Yang has some things..."
Only Yang Keshi, who was full of fatigue, sighed deeply and extremely deeply in the shadows. After so many twists and turns, many people and things are still different after all...
When Jiangning was traveling, the farewell residence of Mr. Cai who was thinking about his past behind closed doors was a scene of a banquet with lights and a lot of visitors.
"All Jiangdong, Jiangxi, Liangzhe, Jinghu, Huainan roads,"
"A total of 28th Routes, 300 military prefectures, and more than 1,600 county seats were left,"
"There are vacancies for at least a few thousand military positions after the war."
"I actually summoned Mr. Zheng to consult related matters..."
"This is a big deal..."
"It is also a symbol of the favor of the country..."
"I guess Mr. Cai will make a comeback soon..."
The guests and disciples who gathered in the courtyard, with such whispering gratitude and expectation, the host's reappearance and then sent some kind of solemn congratulations.
But the exquisite and delicious dishes were replaced one after another, the expensive and rare wine was heated up again and again, but I couldn't wait for the banquet host to show his face.
Until the short and fat butler suddenly came forward to apologize, claiming that the owner was temporarily ill and could not meet guests.
The bad news from the north then spread quickly with some heavyweights who were summoned to the industry, with a gray face or unexpected face.
