The guard scrambled to stand up, still bent over and did not dare to straighten up, and said tremblingly, "Everyone, please follow me."
While he was leading the way ahead, the people next to him secretly gave a wink, and the other guard quietly withdrew from the crowd, presumably to secretly inform the generals defending the city.
Tangning saw the man sneaking away from the market, and was about to chase after him when Si Wuxiu grabbed his wrist.
Si Wuxiu blinked at him, and Tangning immediately realized that he had seen it too, but pretended not to, and let the guard go on purpose.
"What are you planning?" Tangning lowered her voice and asked him curiously.
Si Wuxiu shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't have any ideas. I know that the other party will not tell the truth, even if I see the guards, the other party will only pretend to us. If he wants to report the letter, let him go. Originally, I didn't I plan to take a trip to solve the matter."
"Huh? You didn't go to the general who defended the city to solve this matter?" Tangning didn't understand.
"Find two people to settle those children first, don't send them home for now, lest they will be betrayed by their parents again." Si Wuxiu casually found a disciple of Tangjiabao, whispered in his ear, and made arrangements.
Then he turned around and said softly to Tangning, "Next, is Aning willing to play a play with me?"
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Acting is fine, but you have to give me a script, I don't even know how to act..." When Tangning heard the word "acting", she was unavoidably nervous and excited, for fear that she would mess it up.
Because as soon as Student Si opened his mouth, Tangning knew that the other party was about to do something big.
"A Ning thinks, if you are the general who defends the city and you have a ghost in your heart, and you meet passers-by like us, knowing that you can't beat them, but you can't give up your vested interests, what will you do?" Si Wuxiu threw away first. Asked a question.
Tangning thought for a while, and said, "Then make a good promise on the surface, and when those passers-by leave, they will turn around and not repent, and continue to do those unconscionable things."
Si Wuxiu curled his lips slightly: "As Aning said, so why should we bother talking when we know they won't change?"
Right at this point, the guards had already brought them to a well-built house: "Guys, the guards of our Sunset City are inside."
Tangning took a look at the environment around the courtyard. It was several times better than the house they rented. The various flowers and plants planted in the courtyard made him think for a moment that this was a courtyard in the south.
Such extravagance, at first glance, looks like a corrupt official, the kind who seeks the people's fat and anointment!
Moreover, the generals guarding the city did not guard the city gates during the daytime, did not inspect the guards, and what did they do in the house? Isn't this blatant absenteeism?
It was probably because someone reported the news. As soon as Tang Ning and the others arrived at the house, the general dressed up and came to greet them: "Sorry everyone, Hao didn't know that the heroes are here, so I am far away to welcome you!"
The guard of Sunset City was surnamed Hao, and his official title was Xiaowei, so he was called Xiaowei Hao.
Colonel Hao looked around forty, and in this desolate Sunset City, he was able to grow a round waistline. Against the backdrop of the rest of the guards, he looked like a rich man with big arms and round waists.
It can be seen that his surname is different from his, and he is not "Hao" at all. It is even worse than Tangning imagined.
"A few masters have come from afar, why don't you let me hold a banquet for you to clean up the dust?" Hao Xiaowei looked at Tangning and the others with a flattering expression, and when he laughed, there was nowhere to put the flesh on his face.
Captain Hao is only a fourth-level warrior, barely enough to reach the Jade level, but his cultivation base is not very solid. Compared with Tang Ding and Tang Ning, the Jade-level fighters seem to be weak .
So after sizing up Tangning's group, Hao Xiaowei was secretly startled, and realized that his own strength was completely unable to compete with the other party, so he quickly adopted a soft policy, hoping to stabilize them first.
Second Brother Tang has a straightforward personality, and immediately snorted coldly: "There is no need for a banquet, I just came to ask, what do you think of the matter that you Sunset City dragged the children to the border to sacrifice to the Yaozu?"
"Oh, it's a misunderstanding!" Hao Xiaowei immediately put on a headache expression, beat his chest and said, "I have told the people in the city countless times that we cannot compromise with the monster race, but they just don't listen, often privately. The boys and girls are sent to the Yaozu side, in order to keep them safe..."
"Really?" Brother Tang looked at him suspiciously, "But when I was at the market, I clearly heard the car owner say that this was ordered by the White Tiger Army. As the guard of the White Tiger Army in this city, don't you Don't you know anything?"
"I...I really don't know!" Captain Hao said with an apologetic smile, "It must be that some of my subordinates are using my name to commit crimes, everyone, please be safe, and when I go back, I will definitely reprimand my subordinates The gang!"
Rao is the person Tang Erge is used to being careless, and he still has doubts about what he said: "You said you didn't know about this, so why did the city guards come so timely when we fought in the market? Without you Do they dare to blatantly say that they want to arrest me and put me in prison?"
Colonel Hao's forehead was covered with bean-big cold sweat, and he hurriedly described it. He said for a while that the lieutenant general took his transfer order and concealed the matter; Let the people talk like this.
The logic was quite clear at the beginning, but in the end it was a bit confusing.
Tang Ning curled her lips inwardly, and sure enough, she revealed her secrets after talking too much. Even his second brother could tell something was wrong.
Especially when Brother Tang asked questions head-on, there were very few people who could face the barrage of questions with ease - except for Si Wuxiu.
So in the end, Colonel Hao had to bow his head and admit his mistakes, admitting his negligence and laissez-faire mistakes, and said that he would urge his subordinates to never let such things happen again in the city.
Brother Tang nodded in satisfaction: "Remember what you said today, as a city guard, you should love the people like your own son!"
"Yes, yes, I will definitely repent seriously." Colonel Hao nodded and bowed, and couldn't help asking, "I wonder if those children... Can some masters send them back home?"
"After we are sure that you have restrained those subordinates, we will naturally send them back." Brother Tang Er said, "If I find out that you continue to do such things in private, then don't blame me for taking your court Order the officer to be tied up and sent to the officer!"
Colonel Hao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Naturally, after I promise, nothing like this will happen again in Sunset City."
Hao Xiaowei didn't mention those children's affairs anymore, but when he lowered his head occasionally, a stern look flashed in his eyes.
Since Tang Ning practiced spirit control, although she couldn't hear what the living people were thinking, she still had a certain sense of their emotions.At this moment, he could feel a strong malice from Captain Hao, and couldn't help frowning.
It seems that this person really followed Si Wuxiu's analysis, on the surface he agreed very well, but in fact he had other plans in his heart, and he would not listen to persuasion at all.
Only the second brother was willing to give him another chance to reform himself, but Tangning didn't think Captain Hao would listen.
Tangning finally understood why Si Wuxiu said she wanted to "play a show".In this case, it would be a waste of time to tell the other party, it is better to pretend to be fooled by Captain Hao, and see what he does when the time comes, and adapt accordingly.
Thinking that the matter was almost done, Brother Tang waved his hand and said: "From now on, you can do it yourself! If we didn't find out this time, some people in the city will secretly give the child to the Yaozu in the future. When that time comes, you in Sunset City It will only make people more and more withered. Moreover, using the method of sacrificing your own flesh and blood to protect yourself will also make people more mentally distorted. By then, you may destroy yourself before the monsters attack!"
"Your Excellency is right, what you said is like enlightenment!" Hao Xiaowei smiled again, "Are you leaving now, I have already ordered people to prepare a feast..."
"No need!" Second Brother Tang waved his hand impatiently, "Could it be that we are short of that meal?"
"Yes, yes." Colonel Hao smiled all over his face, "Then... everyone plans to stay in Sunset City for a few days, can you tell me?"
"Tell you what to do, do you still want to wait for us to leave before repeating the old tricks?" Brother Tang frowned, and pointed at him with the scimitar in his hand, "If you think you can continue after we leave? It’s a big mistake to do whatever you want! Naturally, we will leave a dark trail in the city to watch your every move, don’t think we can cheat the world.”
"How could it be! I feel that I am very close to the heroes and masters. When you leave, I want to see you off." Captain Hao wiped the cold sweat from his brow and said with a smile.
"There's no need to see him off, we don't need it." Brother Tang rebuffed flatly.
Tangning was exhausted just seeing Hao Xiaowei's forced smile, and he couldn't see where they hit it off. Hao Xiaowei clearly wanted them to leave as soon as possible.
Captain Hao said a few good words as if he didn't want money, and sent them all the way out of the captain's mansion, and asked the guards to escort them back to the small courtyard they rented, but Tangning and the others refused.
The guard also showed an expression of amnesty. This group of people is powerful and terrifying. It's better not to get close or not.
On the way back, Tangning couldn't help but whispered to Si Wuxiu, "What do you think Captain Hao will do next?"
The little fox muttering in a low voice looked cute, Si Wuxiu kissed him on the lips first, and then replied: "In my opinion, he will find someone to check our identities first. But we are going out on this trip He didn't take the initiative to reveal his identity to the outside world, and the clothes of Tangjiabao's disciples have also changed styles. I'm afraid he won't be able to find out for the time being. Besides, I don't think he will have the patience to look down. He only thinks that we are stronger warriors who like to fight against injustices. That's all."
"Then, after confirming our identities, what will he do?" Tangning nudged him, telling him to speak quickly.
"Then, of course, we have to find a way to deal with us." Si Wuxiu smiled coldly, "You heard what the Second Young Master said just now. In order to ensure that such things don't happen again in the city, he will leave a dark line to stare at him. Although The second son was just trying to scare him, but I think Captain Hao really believed it, and he was afraid that we would ruin his business. Maybe he can't wait until we leave Sunset City before doing it. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, maybe he I will choose to take the risk and attack in the city."
Tangning asked in surprise, "How can he be so courageous?"
"If you don't have the guts, you won't be able to do such a heartless thing." Si Wuxiu said, "Who would believe that he has no collusion with the Northwest Monster Race?"
"The common people still believe him. Are they all blind?" Tangning said sullenly, "Who would want to send their own flesh and blood to monsters, knowing that the children won't survive..."
Si Wuxiu hugged him into his arms, and quietly sighed in his heart.There are so many selfish people in this world. In the eyes of some people, they would not feel guilty about sacrificing their own flesh and blood for their own benefit.
Leaving aside, let's just say that Si Chenyan's parents poisoned their daughter for the sake of their son. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
However, he felt that it was better not to say these words to Tangning explicitly. If he said too much, the little idiot might be depressed for a while.
Tangning was still a little puzzled, why did she suddenly hug her again halfway through? "Hey, did you hear what I just said?"
"I heard you." Si Wuxiu held the back of his head and let his head rest in his arms, "I want to hug you like this for a while, and talk about serious things later."
Tangning thought about it for a long time, and finally thought that he mentioned the word "parents", maybe it made Si think of her own parents, a little sad, right?
It's not that everyone is as lucky as himself. Being born in Tangjiabao, his family members favor him.
Thinking of this, Tangning couldn't help wrapping her arms around his back and patting him lightly.Unable to think of anything to comfort the other party, Tangning had no choice but to borrow classmate Si's lines: "Don't be sad, you still have me here."
Silently, Si Wuxiu raised the corner of her mouth and kissed Tangning's neck, "Well, my Aning is the best."
Brother Tang turned around and wanted to ask them what to do with the rescued children, but when he turned his head, he saw the two hugging each other.
The big brother just walked away, is it really okay for you to hug your back feet so blatantly!
Have you put my second brother in your eyes?
Brother Tang was also very upset today.
……
After returning to the residence, Tangning went to see the children and comforted them.
Probably because of Tangning's friendly attitude and good looks, the frightened children's emotions gradually stabilized. Among them, some older children took the initiative to comfort the younger children, very well-behaved and sensible.
Tangning looked at these children and couldn't help but sigh.Such a good child, how could their parents bear the heart.
Si Wuxiu watched from the side without saying anything, but quietly held Tangning's hand.
"The conditions in Sunset City are difficult. Many people's homes can't open the pot, and the guards in the city have to collect boys and girls. They are willing to spend money to buy children from these poor people's homes. Therefore, these children were sold to the guards by their parents."
After leaving the room where the children were placed, Si Wuxiu said to Tangning, "Yuhe came back and told me that according to her unannounced visits, this so-called custom has been going on for three years. Every once in a while, children are sacrificed to monsters. Boys and girls, the people in the city have even discussed the order, and no one can shirk when it is their turn, they must hand over the children."
Tangning felt a chill. These people didn't want to fight against the monsters. Instead, they would rather sacrifice their children in exchange for a moment of peace. They even negotiated the order?
"If this continues, one day they will have no children to sacrifice." Tangning frowned, "What should they do then?"
"That's why these common people still have the idea of doing business in the past. Anyone who sees someone bringing a child will find a way to steal other people's child, and then lie that it was done by a monster." Si Wuxiu said.
"In this way, after we leave, these children will still be doomed?" Tangning began to think about whether she could take these children away and find a place to resettle them.
"If you think like this, it's a good idea, but it's not a good idea." Si Wuxiu shook his head and said, "After all, it's a separation of flesh and blood, so can you still let the children in Sunset City leave their parents? Sometimes people won't think you are kind, but only think that you have broken up the family relationship."
"Then what do you say?"
"Tackling the problem from the root is the most effective way." Si Wuxiu looked down at him with a confident smile in his eyes, "Does Ah Ning understand what I mean?"
Tangning shook her head resolutely, "I don't understand."
Si Wuxiu pinched his ears: "A Ning is really getting more and more cunning by pretending to be ignorant."
"I really don't understand." Tangning said with her eyes wide open, "You said you want to solve the root cause, do you want to replace the guards of Sunset City, or get rid of the man-eating monsters outside? Do you want to give me an answer?"
"Two-pronged approach, what does Aning think?" Si Wuxiu raised her eyebrows.
"Double management...you have to manage both ends?" Tangning blinked, looking at him with some doubts, "I've never seen you so actively meddling in other people's affairs before. What's going on today?"
Could it be that he was really moved by what happened to those children, like the one with Wang Feizhou?
"Have you forgotten, Ah Ning, there is a yellow dragon deep in the yellow sand in the northwest, with a golden staff in his hand that should belong to you." Si Wuxiu said with a serious face, "The man-eating monsters at the border belong to that yellow dragon." It would be even better if you can get rid of Huang Long while taking care of him."
Tangning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The golden staff doesn't belong to me either, and Huanglong is hiding in the heart of the Northwest monster clan, so how could it be so easy for you to get rid of it?"
What's more, since the opponent can control the golden rod, it means that his cultivation base is not low, and his bloodline is also unusual, at least he has the ability to compete for the Demon Emperor.
Tangning didn't dare to say that they would definitely defeat each other.
"But the master of the shrine, Gu Le, and even Emperor Yuan all hope that you can become the demon emperor. Maybe we are lucky. Not only can we drive down the black-hearted and incompetent guard, but we can also solve the man-eating monster outside, and finally lead the Northwest How about getting rid of the monster yellow dragon, and completely pacifying the northwest?" Si Wuxiu laughed.
"Dream it and you will." Tangning rolled her eyes at him. There is no such thing in the world. To get the Yaohuang Robe, he felt that it was a blessing in disguise.
What's more, the White Tiger Army has been operating in the northwest for so long. From the first marshal until now, there is no way to pacify the northwest. It is not easy to maintain the situation of competing with each other.
In addition, the current Marshal of the White Tiger Army does not have the white tiger seven-suspended armor, and his cultivation level has not reached the level of the first marshal's martial arts. He is able to defend several important towns in the northwest, not to say that he has no merit, at least he has no faults.Thinking about it this way, Tangning could understand why there was a place like Sunset City.
Really, I can't manage it.
The White Tiger Army can't do anything against Sunset City, and the people here have a bad guard, what else can everyone do?
Many times, when good people turn bad, they are forced to do so.Hateful people also have pitiful qualities.
Of course, this does not mean that the behavior of those parents is worthy of forgiveness. Some wrong things can be turned back, and some can never be.These children who were rescued by Brother Tang were lucky to save their lives, but who would complain for those innocent children before?
"Frowning again." Si Wuxiu sighed softly, and poked Tangning's forehead, "How many times have I told you that this kind of thing is for me to worry about, and you are responsible for being happy every day, let me watch Just be happy."
"Won't that make me look stupid?" Tangning glared at him. Although he was furry, he wasn't really a mascot. He could help.
"A-Ning is cuter if he's a little silly." Si Wuxiu said, too smart to be like him.
And if Tangning becomes too smart, then Si Wuxiu's resourcefulness will not be able to be used, and it will lose a lot of fun.
The two bickered as usual, and walked all the way from the backyard to the front yard. At this time, the sky was a little dark, and the red sunset glow hung high in the sky. The sky was high and vast, and the bottom was the vast yellow sand, which was a unique scene in the desert.
It is desolate, but also seems to have a kind of primitive charm.
Tangning was engrossed in watching, and didn't bother arguing with Si Wuxiu, thinking that the scene in front of her might be seen once in a lifetime.
Just as he was about to enjoy the scenery, his mouth was suddenly blocked by someone, and his lips and tongue were unconsciously entangled with the other person, and a slight moan was mixed into the whistling wind.
The sunset glow gradually faded, and the stars in the night sky began to brighten.Brother Tang was showing off his skills in the kitchen, and when he came out of the kitchen with his specialty dishes, he saw these two not only hugging each other again, but even kissing each other!
"You...you..." Brother Tang felt that he really couldn't bear it anymore this time.
"Second brother?" Tangning was taken aback by his second brother. He thought that there was no one in the yard, but he didn't expect his second brother to see him kissing. In a hurry, he pushed Si Wuxiu away.
Si Wuxiu's face turned cold, and the robe transformed from the white tiger armor on his body also exuded a dignified aura.
He suddenly drew his sword at Second Brother Tang, swung the sword and stabbed at Tang Ding directly!
"Wait a minute, even if the second brother saw it, you don't have to... ah!" Tangning originally thought that Si Wuxiu was a little angry after being seen, not to mention that the second brother would often come to him to discuss ideas, but waited He took a closer look and saw that was not the case.
It turned out that behind his second brother, there was still a dark shadow with malicious intentions!
Si Wuxiu's sword was actually aimed at that black shadow.
In the blink of an eye, the sword energy arrived first.
Before Brother Tang could react, he was still holding the dish in his hand when he was sprayed all over the face by the blood spattered by the shadow.Looking down at the chopped pepper fish head in his hand, Tang Ding could no longer tell whether the bright red ball was pepper or blood.
"The surname is Si, can't you say hello first?!" Brother Tang was extremely angry. It is not easy to buy fish in the Northwest. He made this fish head specially for Tangning, and now the other party After doing this, can this dish still be eaten?
"Sorry, pay attention next time." Si Wuxiu said lightly.
"Second brother, are you alright?" Tangning hurried over, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his brother's face, then looked down at the man in black next to him, "Who is this?"
Second brother Tang yelled "bad luck". After putting down the pot of vegetables, he took the handkerchief from Tangning and wiped his face. I have not been discovered behind me, so it can be seen that I am well versed in the technique of lurking."
Si Wuxiu said: "I'm afraid they were sent by the guards to spy on us. They came sooner than I expected. It seems that Captain Hao is really not a calm person."
"To spy on the details?" Tangning said, "Then what will Colonel Hao do until this person returns to his command?"
"Tonight at the latest, he will definitely make some moves." Si Wuxiu said firmly.
Most of what Si Wuxiu decided would actually happen.So Brother Tang no longer felt sorry for his fish head, and quickly summoned all Tangjiabao disciples to strengthen their defenses.
After nightfall, Sunset City became extremely quiet.Compared with the occasional noises that can be heard during the day, at night, there is nothing but the sound of the wind, like a dead city.
In such a quiet environment, even the slightest disturbance would become extremely obvious.
Tangning immediately opened her eyes when she heard the sound of footsteps that were deliberately hidden but still revealed a little movement.
He didn't feel much sleepy at first, and he just pretended to be lying on the bed. He didn't even change his clothes, and he still held all the weapons in his hands.
So did Si Wuxiu who was lying beside him.
The two turned over tacitly and jumped off the bed lightly.The moment they landed on the ground, a sharp knife suddenly stabbed out from the top of the bed, and several figures swooped down along the ceiling pierced by the sword at the same time, and landed precisely on the position of the bed. He slashed at the quilt on the bed!
When they slashed at the quilt with their knives, Si Wuxiu flicked his wrist at the same time, and shot out several sword qi from the green shadow sword, leaving a thin line of blood on the necks of these assassins.
Before realizing what happened, several assassins fell silently, before they could even say a word.
Tangning glanced at Si Wuxiu. With this skill, what happened to his second brother's pot of vegetables just now?
Sure enough, it was intentional.
After Si Wuxiu put these people down, he pulled Tangning and said, "Go, meet everyone outside!"
"Yeah!" Tangning acted cooperatively. The two came outside, just in time to see Brother Tang leading other disciples in the yard, and more assassins climbed over the wall and launched an attack on them.
"Catch some workers!" Tangning shouted to his second brother, "See if I can ask anything!"
"Understood!" Tang Ding yelled, "Just don't worry, Ah Ning, with Second Brother here, it's fine to catch them alive!"
But that being said, it is not so easy to catch them all alive. These people are vicious in their moves, and they are all here to take their lives, and get rid of them quickly.
After being knocked out of their weapons and restricted in their movements, these assassins would still bite the poison hidden between their teeth and commit suicide by taking the poison, just to prevent them from asking the mastermind behind the scenes.
Not only Tangning, but even Tang Ding frowned, "Are these people desperate?"
Of the dozen or so assassins, two escaped, and none of the others who were stopped by them survived.
"Following a person like Captain Hao, who has done all kinds of bad things, he must also know that once someone finds out, he will die." Si Wuxiu shook his head, "Find someone to bury them all."
"No." Tangning pulled him back and gestured to the other Tangjiabao disciples to stay away for now, "How could Captain Hao, who is so greedy for life and afraid of death, have such fierce and fearless subordinates? Those guards How useless it is, we haven’t seen it during the day, but at night they all covered their faces, wouldn’t they retreat if the assassination failed, anyway, we have no evidence.”
Si Wuxiu was stunned: "A-Ning is right, these corpses... No, everyone spread out!"
In an instant, a cloud of black smoke emerged from the body and quickly spread to the entire courtyard.
Everyone quickly put on the windshield cloth, covered their mouths and noses, and held their breath.
When I looked at the corpses again, I saw black snakes as thick as human arms coming out of the stomachs of the assassins, slithering out a few feet, and turning into warriors with black scales on their skin. .
The two who escaped did not escape unharmed. When they saw a snake crawling out of their stomachs, their eyes were wide open when they died. They didn't know whether they were killed by the snake's poison or scared to death.
These snake demons looked at Tangning and the others with contempt and resentment in their eyes, "Are you the ones who interrupted our king's eating? Since we can't wait for virgin boys and girls, then we will arrest you and bring you back to the king When rations!"
The snake monsters are extremely fast, they can change their limbs into tails at will, and use the tail as a whip. Being briefly obscured by fog is not easy to deal with.
However, compared with the black python in the secret realm of Haoshan Mountain, these northwest black snakes are not enough.
Tangning didn't let them get close at all, and directly activated the power on the Demon Emperor's robe. When the demonic wind blew, the snake demons' legs went limp in an instant. Everyone looked at Tangning in horror.
"what is that……"
"My God, could it be the Demon Emperor's Robe?"
"This power is stronger than the golden staff. What kind of monster is this..."
The whispers of the snake monsters fell into Tangning's ears. The veins on his forehead twitched slightly, and he walked up to them, "It doesn't matter what kind of monster I am. Let me ask you, you are the one that the people say can eat people monster?"
The snake demons nodded, shook their heads again, and explained to Tang Ning, "My lord, although you got a lot of virgins from Sunset City and nearby villages, we are not willing to eat them. , all dedicated to Master Huanglong! And we took the benefits of these people, and did not commit any crimes again, this is what their human race said..."
"Everyone takes what they want!" Someone rushed to answer.
"That's right, everyone gets what they need, for mutual benefit!" The snake demons all begged for mercy.
"That's not an excuse for you to get away with the crime." Tangning rubbed her head, feeling a little headache from being quarreled by these snake monsters, "Besides, Sunset City is so depressed, you need seven virgins every month, isn't that a general Are the people driven to a dead end?"
The snake monsters said with mournful faces: "My lord, we really can't blame us for this. Originally, we came once every six months. It's because Master Huanglong's appetite has grown recently that we changed it to once a month. We didn't want to!"
Si Wuxiu asked: "What will happen if you don't dedicate these children to the adults over there on time?"
The snake demons all showed terrified and frightened expressions, shaking their heads like rattles, and dared not speak further.
Tangning looked at Si Wuxiu, "What should we do now?"
"Tie them up first, and then bring them to the captain's mansion to testify. If the two sides can agree, it means that they are not lying." Si Wuxiu said.
"Of course we won't lie!"
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Since we are candidates for the Demon Emperor, how dare we have that courage!"
The snake demons defended themselves with one voice.
"There won't be any more assassinations, right?" Tangning breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the snake monsters being tied up obediently by her disciples. "If there is a third wave, it might affect the people living nearby."
"Probably not." Si Wuxiu shook his head and said, "Sunset City is so poor, it is not easy for Colonel Hao to raise a group of assassins. Compared with Captain Hao, these snake monsters are not much richer. Go, you still have to make a living under Huang Long's subordinates, and now you're going to fight in person, what else can they come up with in the future?"
The snake demons burst into tears, why do they sound so shabby.
Although this is indeed true, don't they want to lose face? After finally establishing a frightening image in the city, it is estimated that it will be shattered from now on.
On the way the snake demons were bundled up and brought to Xiaowei's mansion, Tangning and the others did not hide from the surrounding people. He could see that many people did not dare to open the doors, but dared to look out through the windows. There was an expression of fear and hatred in his eyes.
Fortunately, they have not yet reached the level of numbness to the Yaozu, and they will show expressions of hatred, indicating that they did not sacrifice their children voluntarily.
Everything can be saved.
It's just like this, Tangning didn't like the yellow dragon deep in the northwest hinterland even more.
Originally, he didn't understand why Gu Le and his clansmen were unwilling to associate with the Northwest Monster Race, but now it seems that the seniors of Myna Bird are more foresighted.
Captain Hao didn't get the news of the successful assassination, so he fidgeted in the mansion for a long time. He finally heard a movement at the door, and thought it was someone coming to report. When he was walking quickly to the door, he saw Brother Tang kicking the door open. He came towards him murderously.
Captain Hao quickly stopped halfway through the run, and quickly ran back with his head in his arms.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to run.
"Tie them all up!" Second Brother Tang glared at him even more angrily after learning that the three waves of assassins were all related to Colonel Hao, "You clearly promised well during the day, but I didn't expect you to be a treacherous villain. I thought you knew your mistakes and could correct them!"
Hao Xiaowei saw that all those creepy and terrifying snake monsters were arrested, and he was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he cried bitterly: "Hero, spare your life, I am really forced!"
"You clearly said that you could provide virgin boys and girls for us!" Some snake demons were not convinced, and exposed Captain Hao's lie.
"That's right, you also said that if it's not enough, you'll start from other towns." Another snake demon said, "You dare to lie in front of the adults, and you want to throw the blame on us, what a beautiful idea! "
Tangjiabao's disciples were a little dumbfounded when they saw the people on both sides fighting among themselves.
"Detain them separately, ask them as much as possible, and see if they have anything to say." Si Wuxiu said to them.
Tang Jiabao's leading disciple, Ge Li, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Si, we will definitely interrogate them carefully, and we can even ask them about the scandal of not taking off their pants to pee when they were three years old!"
Tangning was a little embarrassed. Don't ask about this kind of thing. What's worth asking? Isn't the key to how many towns and villages have been threatened by this kind of thing, and they still believe in this bad habit?
"Let them interrogate. Ah Ning should take a rest first." Si Wuxiu rubbed Tangning's tail, "Look, after working all night, even the tail is listless."
Tangning pulled her tail out of his hand annoyedly, and glared at him, "You took the opportunity to eat my tofu again!"
"Well, Ah Ning's tofu is delicious." Si Wuxiu curled his lips.
The two looked at each other, Tangning couldn't help laughing and said, "In this way, as long as we send the witnesses and material evidence to the White Tiger Army, these matters will be considered over? As long as the White Tiger Army strengthens supervision, Sunset City will be able to This will never happen again and the children will be able to return to their parents."
"Ah."
"That yellow dragon is too hateful. We must alert the White Tiger Army so that he cannot continue to harm the towns near the border," Tangning said.
"Ah."
"I'm still talking to you about something serious, can you let go of your hand first?" Tangning gave the other party a helpless look, and refused to touch her tail.
While he was leading the way ahead, the people next to him secretly gave a wink, and the other guard quietly withdrew from the crowd, presumably to secretly inform the generals defending the city.
Tangning saw the man sneaking away from the market, and was about to chase after him when Si Wuxiu grabbed his wrist.
Si Wuxiu blinked at him, and Tangning immediately realized that he had seen it too, but pretended not to, and let the guard go on purpose.
"What are you planning?" Tangning lowered her voice and asked him curiously.
Si Wuxiu shook his head slightly, and said: "I don't have any ideas. I know that the other party will not tell the truth, even if I see the guards, the other party will only pretend to us. If he wants to report the letter, let him go. Originally, I didn't I plan to take a trip to solve the matter."
"Huh? You didn't go to the general who defended the city to solve this matter?" Tangning didn't understand.
"Find two people to settle those children first, don't send them home for now, lest they will be betrayed by their parents again." Si Wuxiu casually found a disciple of Tangjiabao, whispered in his ear, and made arrangements.
Then he turned around and said softly to Tangning, "Next, is Aning willing to play a play with me?"
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Acting is fine, but you have to give me a script, I don't even know how to act..." When Tangning heard the word "acting", she was unavoidably nervous and excited, for fear that she would mess it up.
Because as soon as Student Si opened his mouth, Tangning knew that the other party was about to do something big.
"A Ning thinks, if you are the general who defends the city and you have a ghost in your heart, and you meet passers-by like us, knowing that you can't beat them, but you can't give up your vested interests, what will you do?" Si Wuxiu threw away first. Asked a question.
Tangning thought for a while, and said, "Then make a good promise on the surface, and when those passers-by leave, they will turn around and not repent, and continue to do those unconscionable things."
Si Wuxiu curled his lips slightly: "As Aning said, so why should we bother talking when we know they won't change?"
Right at this point, the guards had already brought them to a well-built house: "Guys, the guards of our Sunset City are inside."
Tangning took a look at the environment around the courtyard. It was several times better than the house they rented. The various flowers and plants planted in the courtyard made him think for a moment that this was a courtyard in the south.
Such extravagance, at first glance, looks like a corrupt official, the kind who seeks the people's fat and anointment!
Moreover, the generals guarding the city did not guard the city gates during the daytime, did not inspect the guards, and what did they do in the house? Isn't this blatant absenteeism?
It was probably because someone reported the news. As soon as Tang Ning and the others arrived at the house, the general dressed up and came to greet them: "Sorry everyone, Hao didn't know that the heroes are here, so I am far away to welcome you!"
The guard of Sunset City was surnamed Hao, and his official title was Xiaowei, so he was called Xiaowei Hao.
Colonel Hao looked around forty, and in this desolate Sunset City, he was able to grow a round waistline. Against the backdrop of the rest of the guards, he looked like a rich man with big arms and round waists.
It can be seen that his surname is different from his, and he is not "Hao" at all. It is even worse than Tangning imagined.
"A few masters have come from afar, why don't you let me hold a banquet for you to clean up the dust?" Hao Xiaowei looked at Tangning and the others with a flattering expression, and when he laughed, there was nowhere to put the flesh on his face.
Captain Hao is only a fourth-level warrior, barely enough to reach the Jade level, but his cultivation base is not very solid. Compared with Tang Ding and Tang Ning, the Jade-level fighters seem to be weak .
So after sizing up Tangning's group, Hao Xiaowei was secretly startled, and realized that his own strength was completely unable to compete with the other party, so he quickly adopted a soft policy, hoping to stabilize them first.
Second Brother Tang has a straightforward personality, and immediately snorted coldly: "There is no need for a banquet, I just came to ask, what do you think of the matter that you Sunset City dragged the children to the border to sacrifice to the Yaozu?"
"Oh, it's a misunderstanding!" Hao Xiaowei immediately put on a headache expression, beat his chest and said, "I have told the people in the city countless times that we cannot compromise with the monster race, but they just don't listen, often privately. The boys and girls are sent to the Yaozu side, in order to keep them safe..."
"Really?" Brother Tang looked at him suspiciously, "But when I was at the market, I clearly heard the car owner say that this was ordered by the White Tiger Army. As the guard of the White Tiger Army in this city, don't you Don't you know anything?"
"I...I really don't know!" Captain Hao said with an apologetic smile, "It must be that some of my subordinates are using my name to commit crimes, everyone, please be safe, and when I go back, I will definitely reprimand my subordinates The gang!"
Rao is the person Tang Erge is used to being careless, and he still has doubts about what he said: "You said you didn't know about this, so why did the city guards come so timely when we fought in the market? Without you Do they dare to blatantly say that they want to arrest me and put me in prison?"
Colonel Hao's forehead was covered with bean-big cold sweat, and he hurriedly described it. He said for a while that the lieutenant general took his transfer order and concealed the matter; Let the people talk like this.
The logic was quite clear at the beginning, but in the end it was a bit confusing.
Tang Ning curled her lips inwardly, and sure enough, she revealed her secrets after talking too much. Even his second brother could tell something was wrong.
Especially when Brother Tang asked questions head-on, there were very few people who could face the barrage of questions with ease - except for Si Wuxiu.
So in the end, Colonel Hao had to bow his head and admit his mistakes, admitting his negligence and laissez-faire mistakes, and said that he would urge his subordinates to never let such things happen again in the city.
Brother Tang nodded in satisfaction: "Remember what you said today, as a city guard, you should love the people like your own son!"
"Yes, yes, I will definitely repent seriously." Colonel Hao nodded and bowed, and couldn't help asking, "I wonder if those children... Can some masters send them back home?"
"After we are sure that you have restrained those subordinates, we will naturally send them back." Brother Tang Er said, "If I find out that you continue to do such things in private, then don't blame me for taking your court Order the officer to be tied up and sent to the officer!"
Colonel Hao nodded like a chicken pecking at rice: "Naturally, after I promise, nothing like this will happen again in Sunset City."
Hao Xiaowei didn't mention those children's affairs anymore, but when he lowered his head occasionally, a stern look flashed in his eyes.
Since Tang Ning practiced spirit control, although she couldn't hear what the living people were thinking, she still had a certain sense of their emotions.At this moment, he could feel a strong malice from Captain Hao, and couldn't help frowning.
It seems that this person really followed Si Wuxiu's analysis, on the surface he agreed very well, but in fact he had other plans in his heart, and he would not listen to persuasion at all.
Only the second brother was willing to give him another chance to reform himself, but Tangning didn't think Captain Hao would listen.
Tangning finally understood why Si Wuxiu said she wanted to "play a show".In this case, it would be a waste of time to tell the other party, it is better to pretend to be fooled by Captain Hao, and see what he does when the time comes, and adapt accordingly.
Thinking that the matter was almost done, Brother Tang waved his hand and said: "From now on, you can do it yourself! If we didn't find out this time, some people in the city will secretly give the child to the Yaozu in the future. When that time comes, you in Sunset City It will only make people more and more withered. Moreover, using the method of sacrificing your own flesh and blood to protect yourself will also make people more mentally distorted. By then, you may destroy yourself before the monsters attack!"
"Your Excellency is right, what you said is like enlightenment!" Hao Xiaowei smiled again, "Are you leaving now, I have already ordered people to prepare a feast..."
"No need!" Second Brother Tang waved his hand impatiently, "Could it be that we are short of that meal?"
"Yes, yes." Colonel Hao smiled all over his face, "Then... everyone plans to stay in Sunset City for a few days, can you tell me?"
"Tell you what to do, do you still want to wait for us to leave before repeating the old tricks?" Brother Tang frowned, and pointed at him with the scimitar in his hand, "If you think you can continue after we leave? It’s a big mistake to do whatever you want! Naturally, we will leave a dark trail in the city to watch your every move, don’t think we can cheat the world.”
"How could it be! I feel that I am very close to the heroes and masters. When you leave, I want to see you off." Captain Hao wiped the cold sweat from his brow and said with a smile.
"There's no need to see him off, we don't need it." Brother Tang rebuffed flatly.
Tangning was exhausted just seeing Hao Xiaowei's forced smile, and he couldn't see where they hit it off. Hao Xiaowei clearly wanted them to leave as soon as possible.
Captain Hao said a few good words as if he didn't want money, and sent them all the way out of the captain's mansion, and asked the guards to escort them back to the small courtyard they rented, but Tangning and the others refused.
The guard also showed an expression of amnesty. This group of people is powerful and terrifying. It's better not to get close or not.
On the way back, Tangning couldn't help but whispered to Si Wuxiu, "What do you think Captain Hao will do next?"
The little fox muttering in a low voice looked cute, Si Wuxiu kissed him on the lips first, and then replied: "In my opinion, he will find someone to check our identities first. But we are going out on this trip He didn't take the initiative to reveal his identity to the outside world, and the clothes of Tangjiabao's disciples have also changed styles. I'm afraid he won't be able to find out for the time being. Besides, I don't think he will have the patience to look down. He only thinks that we are stronger warriors who like to fight against injustices. That's all."
"Then, after confirming our identities, what will he do?" Tangning nudged him, telling him to speak quickly.
"Then, of course, we have to find a way to deal with us." Si Wuxiu smiled coldly, "You heard what the Second Young Master said just now. In order to ensure that such things don't happen again in the city, he will leave a dark line to stare at him. Although The second son was just trying to scare him, but I think Captain Hao really believed it, and he was afraid that we would ruin his business. Maybe he can't wait until we leave Sunset City before doing it. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, maybe he I will choose to take the risk and attack in the city."
Tangning asked in surprise, "How can he be so courageous?"
"If you don't have the guts, you won't be able to do such a heartless thing." Si Wuxiu said, "Who would believe that he has no collusion with the Northwest Monster Race?"
"The common people still believe him. Are they all blind?" Tangning said sullenly, "Who would want to send their own flesh and blood to monsters, knowing that the children won't survive..."
Si Wuxiu hugged him into his arms, and quietly sighed in his heart.There are so many selfish people in this world. In the eyes of some people, they would not feel guilty about sacrificing their own flesh and blood for their own benefit.
Leaving aside, let's just say that Si Chenyan's parents poisoned their daughter for the sake of their son. @无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
However, he felt that it was better not to say these words to Tangning explicitly. If he said too much, the little idiot might be depressed for a while.
Tangning was still a little puzzled, why did she suddenly hug her again halfway through? "Hey, did you hear what I just said?"
"I heard you." Si Wuxiu held the back of his head and let his head rest in his arms, "I want to hug you like this for a while, and talk about serious things later."
Tangning thought about it for a long time, and finally thought that he mentioned the word "parents", maybe it made Si think of her own parents, a little sad, right?
It's not that everyone is as lucky as himself. Being born in Tangjiabao, his family members favor him.
Thinking of this, Tangning couldn't help wrapping her arms around his back and patting him lightly.Unable to think of anything to comfort the other party, Tangning had no choice but to borrow classmate Si's lines: "Don't be sad, you still have me here."
Silently, Si Wuxiu raised the corner of her mouth and kissed Tangning's neck, "Well, my Aning is the best."
Brother Tang turned around and wanted to ask them what to do with the rescued children, but when he turned his head, he saw the two hugging each other.
The big brother just walked away, is it really okay for you to hug your back feet so blatantly!
Have you put my second brother in your eyes?
Brother Tang was also very upset today.
……
After returning to the residence, Tangning went to see the children and comforted them.
Probably because of Tangning's friendly attitude and good looks, the frightened children's emotions gradually stabilized. Among them, some older children took the initiative to comfort the younger children, very well-behaved and sensible.
Tangning looked at these children and couldn't help but sigh.Such a good child, how could their parents bear the heart.
Si Wuxiu watched from the side without saying anything, but quietly held Tangning's hand.
"The conditions in Sunset City are difficult. Many people's homes can't open the pot, and the guards in the city have to collect boys and girls. They are willing to spend money to buy children from these poor people's homes. Therefore, these children were sold to the guards by their parents."
After leaving the room where the children were placed, Si Wuxiu said to Tangning, "Yuhe came back and told me that according to her unannounced visits, this so-called custom has been going on for three years. Every once in a while, children are sacrificed to monsters. Boys and girls, the people in the city have even discussed the order, and no one can shirk when it is their turn, they must hand over the children."
Tangning felt a chill. These people didn't want to fight against the monsters. Instead, they would rather sacrifice their children in exchange for a moment of peace. They even negotiated the order?
"If this continues, one day they will have no children to sacrifice." Tangning frowned, "What should they do then?"
"That's why these common people still have the idea of doing business in the past. Anyone who sees someone bringing a child will find a way to steal other people's child, and then lie that it was done by a monster." Si Wuxiu said.
"In this way, after we leave, these children will still be doomed?" Tangning began to think about whether she could take these children away and find a place to resettle them.
"If you think like this, it's a good idea, but it's not a good idea." Si Wuxiu shook his head and said, "After all, it's a separation of flesh and blood, so can you still let the children in Sunset City leave their parents? Sometimes people won't think you are kind, but only think that you have broken up the family relationship."
"Then what do you say?"
"Tackling the problem from the root is the most effective way." Si Wuxiu looked down at him with a confident smile in his eyes, "Does Ah Ning understand what I mean?"
Tangning shook her head resolutely, "I don't understand."
Si Wuxiu pinched his ears: "A Ning is really getting more and more cunning by pretending to be ignorant."
"I really don't understand." Tangning said with her eyes wide open, "You said you want to solve the root cause, do you want to replace the guards of Sunset City, or get rid of the man-eating monsters outside? Do you want to give me an answer?"
"Two-pronged approach, what does Aning think?" Si Wuxiu raised her eyebrows.
"Double management...you have to manage both ends?" Tangning blinked, looking at him with some doubts, "I've never seen you so actively meddling in other people's affairs before. What's going on today?"
Could it be that he was really moved by what happened to those children, like the one with Wang Feizhou?
"Have you forgotten, Ah Ning, there is a yellow dragon deep in the yellow sand in the northwest, with a golden staff in his hand that should belong to you." Si Wuxiu said with a serious face, "The man-eating monsters at the border belong to that yellow dragon." It would be even better if you can get rid of Huang Long while taking care of him."
Tangning didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "The golden staff doesn't belong to me either, and Huanglong is hiding in the heart of the Northwest monster clan, so how could it be so easy for you to get rid of it?"
What's more, since the opponent can control the golden rod, it means that his cultivation base is not low, and his bloodline is also unusual, at least he has the ability to compete for the Demon Emperor.
Tangning didn't dare to say that they would definitely defeat each other.
"But the master of the shrine, Gu Le, and even Emperor Yuan all hope that you can become the demon emperor. Maybe we are lucky. Not only can we drive down the black-hearted and incompetent guard, but we can also solve the man-eating monster outside, and finally lead the Northwest How about getting rid of the monster yellow dragon, and completely pacifying the northwest?" Si Wuxiu laughed.
"Dream it and you will." Tangning rolled her eyes at him. There is no such thing in the world. To get the Yaohuang Robe, he felt that it was a blessing in disguise.
What's more, the White Tiger Army has been operating in the northwest for so long. From the first marshal until now, there is no way to pacify the northwest. It is not easy to maintain the situation of competing with each other.
In addition, the current Marshal of the White Tiger Army does not have the white tiger seven-suspended armor, and his cultivation level has not reached the level of the first marshal's martial arts. He is able to defend several important towns in the northwest, not to say that he has no merit, at least he has no faults.Thinking about it this way, Tangning could understand why there was a place like Sunset City.
Really, I can't manage it.
The White Tiger Army can't do anything against Sunset City, and the people here have a bad guard, what else can everyone do?
Many times, when good people turn bad, they are forced to do so.Hateful people also have pitiful qualities.
Of course, this does not mean that the behavior of those parents is worthy of forgiveness. Some wrong things can be turned back, and some can never be.These children who were rescued by Brother Tang were lucky to save their lives, but who would complain for those innocent children before?
"Frowning again." Si Wuxiu sighed softly, and poked Tangning's forehead, "How many times have I told you that this kind of thing is for me to worry about, and you are responsible for being happy every day, let me watch Just be happy."
"Won't that make me look stupid?" Tangning glared at him. Although he was furry, he wasn't really a mascot. He could help.
"A-Ning is cuter if he's a little silly." Si Wuxiu said, too smart to be like him.
And if Tangning becomes too smart, then Si Wuxiu's resourcefulness will not be able to be used, and it will lose a lot of fun.
The two bickered as usual, and walked all the way from the backyard to the front yard. At this time, the sky was a little dark, and the red sunset glow hung high in the sky. The sky was high and vast, and the bottom was the vast yellow sand, which was a unique scene in the desert.
It is desolate, but also seems to have a kind of primitive charm.
Tangning was engrossed in watching, and didn't bother arguing with Si Wuxiu, thinking that the scene in front of her might be seen once in a lifetime.
Just as he was about to enjoy the scenery, his mouth was suddenly blocked by someone, and his lips and tongue were unconsciously entangled with the other person, and a slight moan was mixed into the whistling wind.
The sunset glow gradually faded, and the stars in the night sky began to brighten.Brother Tang was showing off his skills in the kitchen, and when he came out of the kitchen with his specialty dishes, he saw these two not only hugging each other again, but even kissing each other!
"You...you..." Brother Tang felt that he really couldn't bear it anymore this time.
"Second brother?" Tangning was taken aback by his second brother. He thought that there was no one in the yard, but he didn't expect his second brother to see him kissing. In a hurry, he pushed Si Wuxiu away.
Si Wuxiu's face turned cold, and the robe transformed from the white tiger armor on his body also exuded a dignified aura.
He suddenly drew his sword at Second Brother Tang, swung the sword and stabbed at Tang Ding directly!
"Wait a minute, even if the second brother saw it, you don't have to... ah!" Tangning originally thought that Si Wuxiu was a little angry after being seen, not to mention that the second brother would often come to him to discuss ideas, but waited He took a closer look and saw that was not the case.
It turned out that behind his second brother, there was still a dark shadow with malicious intentions!
Si Wuxiu's sword was actually aimed at that black shadow.
In the blink of an eye, the sword energy arrived first.
Before Brother Tang could react, he was still holding the dish in his hand when he was sprayed all over the face by the blood spattered by the shadow.Looking down at the chopped pepper fish head in his hand, Tang Ding could no longer tell whether the bright red ball was pepper or blood.
"The surname is Si, can't you say hello first?!" Brother Tang was extremely angry. It is not easy to buy fish in the Northwest. He made this fish head specially for Tangning, and now the other party After doing this, can this dish still be eaten?
"Sorry, pay attention next time." Si Wuxiu said lightly.
"Second brother, are you alright?" Tangning hurried over, took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood off his brother's face, then looked down at the man in black next to him, "Who is this?"
Second brother Tang yelled "bad luck". After putting down the pot of vegetables, he took the handkerchief from Tangning and wiped his face. I have not been discovered behind me, so it can be seen that I am well versed in the technique of lurking."
Si Wuxiu said: "I'm afraid they were sent by the guards to spy on us. They came sooner than I expected. It seems that Captain Hao is really not a calm person."
"To spy on the details?" Tangning said, "Then what will Colonel Hao do until this person returns to his command?"
"Tonight at the latest, he will definitely make some moves." Si Wuxiu said firmly.
Most of what Si Wuxiu decided would actually happen.So Brother Tang no longer felt sorry for his fish head, and quickly summoned all Tangjiabao disciples to strengthen their defenses.
After nightfall, Sunset City became extremely quiet.Compared with the occasional noises that can be heard during the day, at night, there is nothing but the sound of the wind, like a dead city.
In such a quiet environment, even the slightest disturbance would become extremely obvious.
Tangning immediately opened her eyes when she heard the sound of footsteps that were deliberately hidden but still revealed a little movement.
He didn't feel much sleepy at first, and he just pretended to be lying on the bed. He didn't even change his clothes, and he still held all the weapons in his hands.
So did Si Wuxiu who was lying beside him.
The two turned over tacitly and jumped off the bed lightly.The moment they landed on the ground, a sharp knife suddenly stabbed out from the top of the bed, and several figures swooped down along the ceiling pierced by the sword at the same time, and landed precisely on the position of the bed. He slashed at the quilt on the bed!
When they slashed at the quilt with their knives, Si Wuxiu flicked his wrist at the same time, and shot out several sword qi from the green shadow sword, leaving a thin line of blood on the necks of these assassins.
Before realizing what happened, several assassins fell silently, before they could even say a word.
Tangning glanced at Si Wuxiu. With this skill, what happened to his second brother's pot of vegetables just now?
Sure enough, it was intentional.
After Si Wuxiu put these people down, he pulled Tangning and said, "Go, meet everyone outside!"
"Yeah!" Tangning acted cooperatively. The two came outside, just in time to see Brother Tang leading other disciples in the yard, and more assassins climbed over the wall and launched an attack on them.
"Catch some workers!" Tangning shouted to his second brother, "See if I can ask anything!"
"Understood!" Tang Ding yelled, "Just don't worry, Ah Ning, with Second Brother here, it's fine to catch them alive!"
But that being said, it is not so easy to catch them all alive. These people are vicious in their moves, and they are all here to take their lives, and get rid of them quickly.
After being knocked out of their weapons and restricted in their movements, these assassins would still bite the poison hidden between their teeth and commit suicide by taking the poison, just to prevent them from asking the mastermind behind the scenes.
Not only Tangning, but even Tang Ding frowned, "Are these people desperate?"
Of the dozen or so assassins, two escaped, and none of the others who were stopped by them survived.
"Following a person like Captain Hao, who has done all kinds of bad things, he must also know that once someone finds out, he will die." Si Wuxiu shook his head, "Find someone to bury them all."
"No." Tangning pulled him back and gestured to the other Tangjiabao disciples to stay away for now, "How could Captain Hao, who is so greedy for life and afraid of death, have such fierce and fearless subordinates? Those guards How useless it is, we haven’t seen it during the day, but at night they all covered their faces, wouldn’t they retreat if the assassination failed, anyway, we have no evidence.”
Si Wuxiu was stunned: "A-Ning is right, these corpses... No, everyone spread out!"
In an instant, a cloud of black smoke emerged from the body and quickly spread to the entire courtyard.
Everyone quickly put on the windshield cloth, covered their mouths and noses, and held their breath.
When I looked at the corpses again, I saw black snakes as thick as human arms coming out of the stomachs of the assassins, slithering out a few feet, and turning into warriors with black scales on their skin. .
The two who escaped did not escape unharmed. When they saw a snake crawling out of their stomachs, their eyes were wide open when they died. They didn't know whether they were killed by the snake's poison or scared to death.
These snake demons looked at Tangning and the others with contempt and resentment in their eyes, "Are you the ones who interrupted our king's eating? Since we can't wait for virgin boys and girls, then we will arrest you and bring you back to the king When rations!"
The snake monsters are extremely fast, they can change their limbs into tails at will, and use the tail as a whip. Being briefly obscured by fog is not easy to deal with.
However, compared with the black python in the secret realm of Haoshan Mountain, these northwest black snakes are not enough.
Tangning didn't let them get close at all, and directly activated the power on the Demon Emperor's robe. When the demonic wind blew, the snake demons' legs went limp in an instant. Everyone looked at Tangning in horror.
"what is that……"
"My God, could it be the Demon Emperor's Robe?"
"This power is stronger than the golden staff. What kind of monster is this..."
The whispers of the snake monsters fell into Tangning's ears. The veins on his forehead twitched slightly, and he walked up to them, "It doesn't matter what kind of monster I am. Let me ask you, you are the one that the people say can eat people monster?"
The snake demons nodded, shook their heads again, and explained to Tang Ning, "My lord, although you got a lot of virgins from Sunset City and nearby villages, we are not willing to eat them. , all dedicated to Master Huanglong! And we took the benefits of these people, and did not commit any crimes again, this is what their human race said..."
"Everyone takes what they want!" Someone rushed to answer.
"That's right, everyone gets what they need, for mutual benefit!" The snake demons all begged for mercy.
"That's not an excuse for you to get away with the crime." Tangning rubbed her head, feeling a little headache from being quarreled by these snake monsters, "Besides, Sunset City is so depressed, you need seven virgins every month, isn't that a general Are the people driven to a dead end?"
The snake monsters said with mournful faces: "My lord, we really can't blame us for this. Originally, we came once every six months. It's because Master Huanglong's appetite has grown recently that we changed it to once a month. We didn't want to!"
Si Wuxiu asked: "What will happen if you don't dedicate these children to the adults over there on time?"
The snake demons all showed terrified and frightened expressions, shaking their heads like rattles, and dared not speak further.
Tangning looked at Si Wuxiu, "What should we do now?"
"Tie them up first, and then bring them to the captain's mansion to testify. If the two sides can agree, it means that they are not lying." Si Wuxiu said.
"Of course we won't lie!"
@无限好文, all in Jinjiang Literature City
"Since we are candidates for the Demon Emperor, how dare we have that courage!"
The snake demons defended themselves with one voice.
"There won't be any more assassinations, right?" Tangning breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the snake monsters being tied up obediently by her disciples. "If there is a third wave, it might affect the people living nearby."
"Probably not." Si Wuxiu shook his head and said, "Sunset City is so poor, it is not easy for Colonel Hao to raise a group of assassins. Compared with Captain Hao, these snake monsters are not much richer. Go, you still have to make a living under Huang Long's subordinates, and now you're going to fight in person, what else can they come up with in the future?"
The snake demons burst into tears, why do they sound so shabby.
Although this is indeed true, don't they want to lose face? After finally establishing a frightening image in the city, it is estimated that it will be shattered from now on.
On the way the snake demons were bundled up and brought to Xiaowei's mansion, Tangning and the others did not hide from the surrounding people. He could see that many people did not dare to open the doors, but dared to look out through the windows. There was an expression of fear and hatred in his eyes.
Fortunately, they have not yet reached the level of numbness to the Yaozu, and they will show expressions of hatred, indicating that they did not sacrifice their children voluntarily.
Everything can be saved.
It's just like this, Tangning didn't like the yellow dragon deep in the northwest hinterland even more.
Originally, he didn't understand why Gu Le and his clansmen were unwilling to associate with the Northwest Monster Race, but now it seems that the seniors of Myna Bird are more foresighted.
Captain Hao didn't get the news of the successful assassination, so he fidgeted in the mansion for a long time. He finally heard a movement at the door, and thought it was someone coming to report. When he was walking quickly to the door, he saw Brother Tang kicking the door open. He came towards him murderously.
Captain Hao quickly stopped halfway through the run, and quickly ran back with his head in his arms.
Unfortunately, it was too late for him to run.
"Tie them all up!" Second Brother Tang glared at him even more angrily after learning that the three waves of assassins were all related to Colonel Hao, "You clearly promised well during the day, but I didn't expect you to be a treacherous villain. I thought you knew your mistakes and could correct them!"
Hao Xiaowei saw that all those creepy and terrifying snake monsters were arrested, and he was so frightened that his legs went limp, and he cried bitterly: "Hero, spare your life, I am really forced!"
"You clearly said that you could provide virgin boys and girls for us!" Some snake demons were not convinced, and exposed Captain Hao's lie.
"That's right, you also said that if it's not enough, you'll start from other towns." Another snake demon said, "You dare to lie in front of the adults, and you want to throw the blame on us, what a beautiful idea! "
Tangjiabao's disciples were a little dumbfounded when they saw the people on both sides fighting among themselves.
"Detain them separately, ask them as much as possible, and see if they have anything to say." Si Wuxiu said to them.
Tang Jiabao's leading disciple, Ge Li, patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Si, we will definitely interrogate them carefully, and we can even ask them about the scandal of not taking off their pants to pee when they were three years old!"
Tangning was a little embarrassed. Don't ask about this kind of thing. What's worth asking? Isn't the key to how many towns and villages have been threatened by this kind of thing, and they still believe in this bad habit?
"Let them interrogate. Ah Ning should take a rest first." Si Wuxiu rubbed Tangning's tail, "Look, after working all night, even the tail is listless."
Tangning pulled her tail out of his hand annoyedly, and glared at him, "You took the opportunity to eat my tofu again!"
"Well, Ah Ning's tofu is delicious." Si Wuxiu curled his lips.
The two looked at each other, Tangning couldn't help laughing and said, "In this way, as long as we send the witnesses and material evidence to the White Tiger Army, these matters will be considered over? As long as the White Tiger Army strengthens supervision, Sunset City will be able to This will never happen again and the children will be able to return to their parents."
"Ah."
"That yellow dragon is too hateful. We must alert the White Tiger Army so that he cannot continue to harm the towns near the border," Tangning said.
"Ah."
"I'm still talking to you about something serious, can you let go of your hand first?" Tangning gave the other party a helpless look, and refused to touch her tail.
