Chapter One Hundred and Forty Nine: The Death of Dong Xuan

Huang Yuchen followed Huang Yuanwu and walked on the streets of Dongxuancheng at dawn. Looking at the smoke of gunpowder and the mess around, a faint feeling lingered in his heart.

A complex smell permeates the air, which is the breath after the fire.

There are very few shops on both sides of the main street that have been destroyed, and most of the burned houses are concentrated in the residential areas of the people. The enemy's purpose is obvious and targeted.

They seemed to have formed a tacit understanding. In Dongxuan City, all the attacks were directed to the people. On the surface, it seemed to be to make the soldiers in Dongxuan City exhausted, but in fact, they were killing people.

There were crowds of people on the streets, but everyone was whispering, and no one was making a loud noise.

The deceased people in the family sobbed in a low voice. The charred corpses were placed on the street, which was shocking.

No one realized the arrival of Huang Yuanwu. At this moment, all the imperial power and king laws seemed so insignificant.

The two walked quietly on the street, looking around, but did not talk to anyone. Along the way, no one noticed the arrival of them.

Everyone was silent in the deep sadness and could not extricate themselves.

In the early morning, the martial law order in Dongxuan City was revoked.

The city gates were wide open, but there was no traffic before. Every shop had a close door, and the entire Dongxuan City was lifeless.

After personally checking the losses of the entire Dongxuan City, Huang Yuanwu's face was as deep as water. He took Huang Yuchen and walked towards the direction of the Wu Mansion again.

After seeing the scene in Dongxuan City, Huang Yuchen had a lot of thoughts in his heart.

Since he was a child, he yearned for the battlefield and felt that men are determined to be on the battlefield, sweating and bleeding are a pleasure in the world.

But now seeing Dongxuancheng looks like this, I feel sad.

This was just a riot caused by the enemy's small number of fine works. For millions of people under the rule of the Eastern Prince's Mansion, the loss was minimal. However, for the people whose homes were destroyed and their relatives were innocently killed, it was a catastrophe.

For the first time, he realized that the trauma caused to innocent people by killing and fighting may be irreparable.

He saw with his own eyes that a child less than four years old was lying on the body of his parents who had been burned to charcoal, crying loudly, crying hoarsely, and crying exhausted.

He saw with his own eyes that a soldier on duty returned to his burned home, looking at the mess, all his relatives had no news, desperately spreading the collapsed house, digging out his relatives one by one, holding the body, roaring to the sky, tears were like springs, but they couldn't cry.

He saw with his own eyes that a wealthy family had been slaughtered, leaving only one and a half children. Looking at the row of corpses of relatives and servants placed outside the yard, he was panicked and stunned on the spot, his eyes were dissipated.

For these people, even if they tear their enemies into pieces, no matter how much compensation the empire gives, it will be useless.

It's gone, it's gone. When it's really gone, you know what it means to lose.

Huang Yuchen was very thoughtful, following Huang Yuanwu's pace, thinking about the miserable scene he had just seen.

In his impression, the battle and killing changed, no longer as dazzling as before, but added a little bloody color.

After entering the martial arts mansion, the two of them entered the hall directly and saw Yu Sheng sitting on the chair. Yu Sheng looked up and Huang Yuchen saw blood in his eyes. On the table next to him, there was a stack of documents, which should be the report from last night.

Yu Sheng saw Huang Yuanwu coming in and wanted to get up, but when he saw Huang Yuanwu waved his hand, he sat down again.

Huang Yuanwu sat next to Yu Sheng and picked up the report on the table. Huang Yuchen stood behind him with a solemn expression.

"Last night, two thousand two hundred and three people died, soldiers were killed, forty-six people, and secretly whistle, thirty-seven people. A total of 105 enemies were killed, and none of them were alive." Yu Sheng saw Huang Yuanwu sitting down and whispered a string of numbers. His voice was very hoarse and sounded very uncomfortable.

So far, the rest of his life has not closed his eyes for three days and three nights, but now the city is like this, and there are still many things that cannot be waited to do. He can't rest yet.

Huang Yuanwu sighed softly, looked at Yu Sheng, and said, "Don't blame yourself, we have done our best in this matter."

Yu Sheng didn't say anything, but just shook his head sadly.

Did you do your best? Of course, you did your best and did your best. He figured out the direction of all the enemies that might attack. The only thing he didn't expect was that they would attack the civilians directly.

The enemy's strategy seemed to have been planned long ago, and it was linked together, making it difficult to finish it. In the end, it protected the most important place he thought, but lost the direction he really important.

But even if you see clearly in the Yu Sheng, you can do nothing. How can you achieve perfection in such a large place as Dongxuan City with only three thousand defenders?

What's more, the enemy only used such a small price to make him anxious. The main reason is that the enemy is hiding in the dark, making him unable to defend himself, unable to concentrate his strength in one place, and could only be controlled everywhere, which ultimately led to the current situation.

"How much money is left in the mansion?" Huang Yuanwu asked when he saw that Yu Sheng didn't say anything.

Yu Sheng thought for a moment and replied in his already hoarse voice: "Hundreds of thousands of taels of silver are all in stock, and they were transferred from the East Mansion last month."

Huang Yuanwu nodded slightly and said, "Brother Yu, you give a few orders." As he said that, he looked at Yu Sheng and said seriously: "1. In the other cities, a large number of soldiers were called to enter Dongxuan City to help the people of Dongxuan City rebuild their houses. 2. All reconstruction costs were all the responsibility of the Lord of Dongxuan City. 3. Each soldier who died in the battle was given a pension of two thousand taels of silver and recorded their social relations. If there were any soldiers who joined the army or entered the government to do things, priority was given. 4. Turn on defense and dispatch the existing Dongxuan City defenders to other cities for one month to change their defense."

"Okay, I'll do it now." Yu Sheng nodded, got up and was about to go out, but Huang Yuanwu said again: "It has been two days, and the other three city lords and seniors have no news. They sent a team of soldiers to greet them in front."

"Okay." Yu Sheng agreed and walked outside.

Huang Yuchen stood behind Huang Yuanwu, lowered his head to think. He looked at the formation inscription carved in his palm, thinking about something.

On this page, he did not dare to remove the inscription of the formation, for fear that the enemy would suddenly attack, so he released the formation talisman paper again, and was on full alert. Now it seems that this thing is useless.

Thinking of this, he was about to remove the talisman seal in his hand. Suddenly, the surrounding aura fluctuated strangely and trembled slightly. A transparent barrier rose around and quickly gathered together. In just a moment, he wrapped Huang Yuanwu, Yu Sheng and Huang Yuchen in it.

"Not good!" Huang Yuchen frowned and immediately began to carve the talisman. Yu Sheng, who was walking forward, obviously did not realize that he was in a barrier, and he bumped directly into it. He was bounced away and sat on the ground, a little confused.

The talisman was quickly carved, and the pale yellow curse seal appeared in the air, forming a curse talisman to break the barrier formation. Huang Yuchen pinched his hands with his hands and shouted: "Break!" The pale yellow curse seal suddenly collapsed, turned into millions of light, flew around, and suddenly rushed towards the transparent barrier around.

Unexpectedly, the surrounding barrier formation did not move at all. Tens of millions of light disappeared into the formation, silently without any sensation.

Yu Sheng had not had a rest for a few days, and his mind was a little slow. He was sitting on the ground with a barrier. Seeing Huang Yuchen suddenly used magic, he suddenly woke up and quickly bounced on the ground. The red Dou Qi surging out of his body. The Dou Qi surging seemed to have stimulated the air. In this sealed barrier, he actually blew his long hair and slowly danced.

Huang Yuanwu did not move, sat quietly on the chair, picked up the already cold tea sitting next to him, and took a sip.

"Who! You have the ability to come out with these despicable means!" Yu Sheng was furious. He had just experienced the burning of Dongxuan City. Although he had killed many of the fine works hidden in the city, he didn't know who the manipulated behind the scenes was from beginning to end. At this moment, the other party suddenly attacked, how could he not let him furious?

Huang Yuchen used the curse seal to break the formation, but it did not work, and frowned. He used his fighting spirit to quickly gather on his hands. The formation talisman carved on his hands suddenly lit up, and he was about to slap the barrier behind him.

"Little brother..."

Suddenly, a voice came, as if it was right in Huang Yuchen's ear. He was shocked, stopped his hand and looked around, but could not see any enemy.

"You have good talent in formation and know many ways to crack it, but if you want to break this barrier, you still have to waste some effort." The voice spoke again. Huang Yuchen wanted to look around, but he still couldn't see any enemy. Through this transparent barrier, everything in the house came into view. Except for Huang Yuanwu and Yu Sheng, there was no one else in the house.

Huang Yuanwu and Yu Sheng obviously heard this voice. Yu Sheng glared and looked around like Huang Yuchen, but Huang Yuanwu showed calmness and continued to drink tea.

"Stop looking for it, I'm not here. This formation was arranged a long time ago to be used for voice transmission." The voice sounded a little old, but the tone was calm, without any provocation.

"Who are you! What are you doing?" Yu Sheng asked loudly. He quickly checked all the places, and no trace of others was found in his eyes or spiritual consciousness.

Huang Yuchen's eyes were shocked. He had seen this formation transmission in classics. This is a mysterious formation that can transmit voices for thousands of miles, but it is extremely difficult to arrange it. It is not much simpler than a teleportation formation. Arrangement also requires a lot of rare materials. Once activated, it will be greatly lost.

He carefully looked at the surrounding edges covered by the barrier and found that the edges of the barrier were all above the gaps of the blue bricks on the ground, and he immediately understood in his heart.

This formation is probably hidden under the blue bricks. It should have been arranged a long time ago...
