Chapter 145: The riot begins
Dark clouds float by, and a full moon hangs in the sky, revealing its original appearance.
The silver moonlight shines on the earth, and there is peace.
In the late night, Dongxuan City, under the moonlight, was like a sleeping giant beast, standing quietly on the earth.
From time to time, there were clear sounds of military boots treading on the ground.
The sound spread far away in the quiet night.
Several men hid in a yard, breathing slowly, and quietly looked at the side room in the yard not far away.
A candlelight printed out several figures in the house, whispering to each other, and didn't know what they were saying.
These secret whistles have been observing here for a long time. Since the people in the city have started to have a small amount of commotion, they have been staring at this courtyard.
The cause is very simple. The owner of this yard has never come out, but many people have come in. There are many people entering and few people coming out, which is very suspicious.
Time passed, further confirming the vision of several secret whistles.
The people in this courtyard had no intention of dispersing. They were always in this room, not knowing what they were talking about.
They received an order from the city lord to strictly guard such places. There were about dozens of abnormal courtyards in the entire Dongxuan City.
Three secret whistles were arranged in each place to observe quietly. The rest of my life didn't believe that so many detailed works could be entered in the city. If they were all true, they would definitely belong to multiple different forces.
Time flies, and it is dawn in a blink of an eye.
There were dozens of courtyards, and the people inside were discussing something all night long, but none of them had any movement.
Yu Sheng quietly looked at the documents passed from his hand and frowned.
He was fully prepared, but these suspects did not move at all.
At the same time, Dongxuan City's actions to investigate the people continue, and martial law has not been lifted.
The rise of the chilly sun brought the first ray of sunshine today. This sunshine shone on the bluestone road in front of the city lord's mansion, and it was golden.
For two consecutive nights, he did not close his eyes for the rest of his life. He had been waiting for the other party to find trouble, but the other party did not move for a long time.
If these people are not from the same camp, they are really tacit understanding at this time.
After ordering the sergeant on duty to change shifts, Yu Sheng stood up, stretched his waist, narrowed his eyes slightly.
He understood the other party's meaning. These people obviously wanted to wait for the effort. When the soldiers were physically and mentally exhausted, they could not do anything else.
Thinking of this, Yu Sheng smiled and called a messenger in, whispering a few words in his ear.
The messenger took the order out, and Yu Sheng walked out of the front hall and looked around. He was a little bored and walked to the kitchen to find food.
There have been some changes in the layout of Dongxuan City.
The guards originally had secret sentries in the unusual courtyard, which increased from three to four, divided into two shifts, and rotated for four hours. Each secret sentry was equipped with a sound of the sky. Once there was an abnormal situation and soaring into the sky, soldiers patrolling around would immediately come to support him.
The sergeants responsible for the investigation secretly reduced a few people. Each team only maintained a minimum staffing configuration. Other sergeants were asked to go back and rest, but ordered Ar to stay away and not to be sheathed.
The patrol frequency of patrol sergeants was reduced again, and the number of sergeants in each team was reduced, and these people were also ordered.
For a time, from the outside, there were fewer soldiers on duty outside Dongxuan City. But in secret, there were actually many more.
Huang Yuchen and Huang Yuanwu had already woken up from entering into meditation and arranged for someone to send breakfast to the room for the rest of their lives. The two of them had not left the house and had used breakfast and practiced by themselves.
Huang Yuanwu did not have any new orders. According to yesterday's order, today, the other three teams sent to deliver the letter should have reached their respective destinations. The rest is waiting to return.
Believe it.
In fact, the purpose of Huang Yuanwu's arrangement of this step is very simple. Since you want me to be injured, I will tell you that I am injured. Not only am I injured, I will also call the four city lords under my command to gather together. Are you afraid?
If nothing unexpected happens, the other three teams of people who send letters will definitely encounter obstacles. It doesn’t matter whether the letters in their hands can be delivered to the destination. If the enemy cannot see these letters, it will be a headache.
Huang Yuanwu sat quietly on the chair, holding a book in his hand, and reading quietly. Huang Yuchen sat cross-legged on the bed, calmly adjusting his breathing.
The development of the situation has completely exceeded Huang Yuchen's ability, and all he can do now is to practice hard.
All day long, all the abnormal yards did not move at all. The people in the yard left in the early morning and returned to their residences separately. They did not move at all, and the secret whistle could not be surging.
During the investigation on this day, except for some criminals, there was still no problematic people, but dozens of problems appeared in the courtyards.
This made Yu Sheng a little unexpected. It was impossible to say that these people were all detailed works, but it was impossible to check which of them were complaining about the people and which were really detailed works.
Yu Sheng had to send secret whistles to stare at these courtyards, hoping to remove the innocent people from them before the other party starts to take action.
This made Yu Sheng a little bit overwhelmed. He didn't have too many men under his command. The entire Dongxuan City was a little stretched. With so many secret whistles arranged, the available personnel were even scarce.
Helplessly, he had to arrange a patrol team to investigate again near the suspicious courtyard in the name of re-examination, disrupting the arrangement of the people in the courtyard.
This still has some effect. With the martial law, several of the people gathered in the courtyard were brought back to the arsenal to inquire and investigate, thus liberating many arranged secret whistles.
The patrol team reviewed the areas where various courtyards existed. The people who quietly gathered in the courtyard secretly separated again. The secret whistle in charge of squatting to watch several of them, which made it much easier.
After such a struggle, when the sun sets, the people in the suspicious courtyards in the city have already scattered away. Except for about 30% of the people who were taken to the Martial Palace to wait for the release of people tomorrow, the remaining dozens of people in the courtyards have returned to their residences and no abnormal movements have occurred.
The sun sets, the last trace of afterglow disappears into the world, and the night falls.
The entire Dongxuan City soldiers were waiting for the battle and were ready to go. According to Xu Sheng's analysis, the detailed work in the city will definitely cause trouble tonight. If they did not have any abnormal movements, then the previous arrangement would be wasted.
Yu Sheng sat quietly in the main hall and slowly drank tea. The city lord's mansion was crowded with people, and all military orders had been issued. Several commanders stood outside the main hall, waiting for the news or the orders from Yu Sheng.
Time passes and dark night comes.
Tonight, the sky is clear, a full moon hangs above the sky, and silver light shines on the earth.
It was extremely quiet, and it seemed that everyone was asleep in Dongxuan City, with almost no sound.
Including patrol sergeants, the patrol frequency will be minimized at this moment.
Suddenly, a fire from the sky appeared in the sky, which was the sound of the sky.
The nearby soldiers immediately moved and headed to the location of the incident.
At the same time, several flames soared into the sky, prompting the patrol soldiers around to go.
Yu Sheng sat in the front hall, and he naturally heard the harsh sound of the sky, but he did not move anyway, but instead had a sneer on his face.
News is about to reach the city lord's mansion, and there are people who are making strange movements in secret, either setting fire to the courtyard or entering the neighborhood with a knife to kill. In short, all the abnormal movements are creating chaos and making the patrol soldiers run away.
There was no order issued for the rest of his life, but the soldiers who had been prepared for a long time in the martial arts palace were on standby at any time.
At present, there are a small amount of commotion, the purpose of which is to create panic in the city, make the soldiers run away, and thus trigger the rest of their life to start the action. Their real killer move must have not been implemented yet.
For a moment, fires rose in the city, and shouts of killing were endless, but there was no surging force. All the rioters were subdued at the first time, the setting fire was extinguished, and the people who killed the people were killed on the spot.
These actions were completed only by the cooperation between the originally patrolled sergeants and the secret sentry. In the middle of the night, the first wave of riots was almost subsided.
The city quickly returned to silence, but after all the troubles, all the people woke up from their sleep. The fires that soared into the sky, the harsh sound of the sky, and the nearby chopping sounds all made them frightened.
The people locked the courtyard gate and hid in places where they could hide at home, trembling.
After a while, there was no abnormal movement in the city.
The secret mail reported that there were only a dozen places where there were actions, and there were dozens of places where nearly a hundred suspicious people were left, and there were no actions until now.
Yu Sheng frowned slightly. In his opinion, since the enemy had started to move, he should not stop. The move just now was obviously to mobilize the soldiers in the entire city to rescue him, but judging from the location and frequency of the incident, this harassment was far from enough.
The rest of my life was thinking hard, but I heard a sound of diving into the sky. The diving into the sky did not rush straight into the sky, but deviated a little.
Frowning, Yu Sheng left the front hall, looked at the sound of the sky that was somewhat deviating, and his mood flew.
When the patrol sergeant saw the sound of the sky, he naturally went to the place of events immediately. The nearest group of sergeants had arrived at the place of events in a moment, but no enemies or riots appeared. Only two corpses lying in a pool of blood were seen rolling out of blood.
But the killer disappeared without a trace, not knowing where it is now.
When the news came, Yu Sheng frowned and immediately ordered that all patrol soldiers should go directly to the residence of the suspicious person instead of the secret whistle and capture him. If he encountered resistance, he could be killed on the spot.
In the city, the sound of military boots falling into the ground immediately came everywhere, and pairs of soldiers headed to the site of the secret whistle and carried out the orders for the rest of their lives.
After a moment, news from soldiers everywhere came, 30% of these secret whistles had died, and they did not even have the chance to release the sound of the sky.
It is obvious that the places where these dead secret whistles were squatting were already empty, and the soldiers rushed to the ground. Except for the corpses lying in the pool of blood, they could not see any suspicious people.
"Damn it!" Yu Sheng cursed inwardly and immediately ordered that all the suspicious people in other squatting places were stuffed into the prison of the Martial Palace. He no longer cared about whether it was overcrowded or not.
At this point, all suspicious places were removed, and there were no suspicious people inside. The patrol sergeants gathered back. According to Yu Sheng's order, there were only three key points to defend below.
City Gate, Martial Mansion and City Lord Mansion.
A small group of soldiers patrolled outside, and most of the remaining soldiers were surrounded by martial arts palaces and the city lord's palaces.
This seems very passive, but there is no other way to do this for the rest of your life, and you can only save important areas.
According to the news, there were about twenty to thirty people who escaped from the suspicious people who killed the scepter this time. These people all had cultivation levels, and their cultivation level was not lower than that of the cultivator.
The secret whistlemen are all in cultivation and have been through the battlefield for a long time. The cultivation level is not lower than that of the intermediate level of the monk. If they want to kill them quietly before they make a sound, they will never be able to do without the advanced level of the monk's cultivation and secret steps.
After this abnormal movement, Dongxuan City returned to silence again.
Yu Sheng's mind was filled with thoughts, and he didn't know what these enemies who had hidden in the city were going to do.
Suddenly, fires burst into full bloom in the city.
Chapter completed!
