Chapter 80
There are two types of deaths in human beings. One is physical death and the other is spiritual elimination. No one can live forever, but no one can guarantee that his spirit will last. Although King Chulie of Zhao died, the State of Zhao would not die because of this! Because his spirit of fighting unyieldingly and never giving up has long been passed down to his soldiers and subjects!
The people in Longcheng naturally didn't know the news that their king had died. A few hours ago, when the night was still covering the earth, countless ghost figures from unknown places began to sneak into this famous northern city from several different directions.
Although the enemy who came in the dark was agile and had a mysterious action, his whereabouts were discovered at the first time. Lie Zi Yufeng, who was in the Qianji Pavilion, immediately issued a killing order. All the spies in the Qianji Pavilion inside and outside the Long City immediately entered a state of emergency. The dark night was dispatched and intercepted everywhere. The battle of life and death surrounding the Jinxiang Palace kicked off.
Lie Zi Yufeng quickly determined that the enemy was from the south city gate based on the information he had. They all entered from the Zhaowu Gate area. Although the city guards stationed there were tight defenses, it was not too difficult for these powerful guys to sneak in.
As for the identity of the night attacker, it is easy to determine. After the first fierce battle near the inner city gate, several guys in black were killed. The things found from them were completely judging that they were all from the powerful Western Qin Kingdom. These should be dead spies affiliated with "Gou Miezha" and have already fought countless times.
Lie Zi Yufeng flew over the iron tower, looking at the firelights that began to appear in the city, his face was extremely cold. Sure enough, it was Qin people who were here to make trouble! Qin and Zhao have been incompatible for a long time! This time, the wars on the Pingyang front line were not counted, but he actually sent another traitor to disturb Longcheng. It was so rampant!
Qin and Zhao became mortal enemies, and they began decades ago. At that time, the Qin people coveted the Jiulong Baoding of the Zhou royal family, and relied on their strong national strength and began to have strange ambitions. The Qin army once took advantage of the opportunity to marry a royal princess to openly own heavy troops outside Luocheng, hoping to force a treasure tripod as the princess' dowry and take it back to Qin. The Great Zhou royal family could not bear bullying and could not bear it anymore, so they secretly ordered the princes to serve the king. Many princes were afraid of the power of Qin and hesitated. Only King Chu Lie of Zhao was determined and immediately brought troops to retreat the Qin army on the day of his order.
It was from that time that Qin regarded Zhao as its number one enemy, and the war between the two countries had never been cut off in open and secret ways until today.
As the owner of Qianji Pavilion who controls all secret spies, Liezi Yufeng's first responsibility is of course to protect the safety of Longcheng and Jinxiang Palace. If King Zhao is not there, no matter how much the price he pays, Longcheng will never fail.
The power of Qianji Pavilion staying in Longcheng has been dispatched. The spies who are infinitely loyal to Zhao are everywhere in the city, using their lives and blood to stop the invasion of powerful enemies. Emergency news is constantly being sent back, and the power to launch a night attack is actually very powerful, and the situation gradually becomes a little critical.
The young man who had just entered Qianji Pavilion nervously held a knife and kept looking up at the figure watching the tower. He heard all the news that he had received, and his heart became extremely anxious.
The enemy actually attacked Longcheng at night. He wanted to go out to fight immediately. Although his ability was low, at such an emergency, he was willing to use the knife and blood in his hand to defend the city where he grew up in it.
"The first batch of enemies who entered the city were blocked near the inner city gate. So far, about twenty or thirty have been killed... But there seem to be even more powerful enemies coming from Zhaowu Gate. According to the rewards of the brothers who went outside the city to resist the enemy, the ones who came from behind were very powerful. They should be powerful elder-level powers sent by Gou Miechu..."
The Qianji Pavilion spy who came back to convey the latest news was covered with blood on his body, and was obviously injured. After he finished speaking meticulously, he gasped, tore open his clothes and applied medicine with the help of the boy.
"Qin Wuzi really put in the capital. This time it seems that he is determined to win! Even the elder-level figures have been dispatched... What is the situation in the city now?"
Liezi Yufeng, standing on the iron tower, did not carry any weapons. Although the situation tonight was severe, it was still not worth his action. His main responsibility was of course to protect the safety of Jinxiang Palace and Qianji Pavilion.
The injured spy immediately replied: "In addition to rushing to Zhaowu Gate to intercept, some of our people are searching for the dead spies that have entered the city. During the fierce battle, several residential houses in the city were ignited. Fortunately, the residents followed the king to Jiuxing Mountain, causing no casualties. The Jinxiang Palace has also made every effort to strengthen its guard in case any enemy takes the opportunity to get closer."
"Okay! If there is any news, report it in time."
Liezi Yufeng nodded and waved his hand to let him leave. However, the brave spy did not leave immediately. After thinking about it, he asked in a hurry.
"Peace Master, if there are really powerful enemies coming from Zhaowu Gate, should we send additional personnel to focus on defense to block the danger from the city gate as much as possible?"
"No need. If it is really the old guys at the Elder Gou Mie level, you can't stop him!"
"What should we do... Pavilion Master! No matter how powerful the person who came, will our Qianji Pavilion still be afraid of him?"
"You can deal with ordinary dead spies who are coming. Don't worry about other things. If you don't need Qianji Pavilion to take action, someone will naturally block them!"
Although the spy was still a little confused, since Liezi Yufeng had already said this, he certainly would not say anything more. He then followed the order. Although he was injured, he should fight again and never retreat.
"I don't understand, you are so powerful... Why don't you go out and direct them to fight yourself?"
The young green bird finally plucked up the courage and asked loudly. Liezi Yufeng did not look down at him, nor did he blame him for his rudeness. Instead, he gently stroked the edge of the tower with his hands and said in a plain tone.
"My duty is to guard Qianji Pavilion and this iron tower. Only when it is absolutely safe here can you take care of other things."
"But, what's the best thing to guard in Qianji Pavilion? This iron tower cannot be moved away, and it cannot be lifted... We should protect Jinxiang Palace! Although the king is not here, the queen is still there!"
The boy's tone was filled with anger. He wanted to go out and see what was going on, but he knew very well that he could not get out without Lie Zi Yufeng's permission.
The figure who stopped and watched the iron tower finally looked down at him. Although he couldn't see the boy's face clearly in the night, he could feel his stubbornness. The reason why he allowed him to enter Qianji Pavilion was, in addition to Chu Jiangmian's face, what Lie Zi Yufeng admired the most was his backbone.
"Young man, you don't understand the importance of Qianji Pavilion, but you can't blame you. As long as you know, Qianji Pavilion and Jinxiang Palace are equally important! Don't worry, just stay here with me. Whether it's Zhaowu Gate or Jinxiang Palace, there are no mistakes. No matter how powerful the enemy is, they will find it difficult to get what they want!"
Bluebird widened his eyes in surprise. He really didn't understand why Liezi Yufeng had such great confidence. Could it be that there are people who are more powerful than him in the Dragon City? And his question, the figure who is lofty will naturally not answer him again. Many things in this world need to be understood and understood by themselves in the process of growing up. This young man has a long way to go, and he hopes that he can grow by himself.
The young man from Qianji Pavilion who did not get the answer naturally would not know that the reason why Longcheng is called Longcheng and King Zhao is called a contemporary hero has many profound backgrounds, which are far from as simple as it seems on the surface.
"Thinking back then, the four of us came to Longcheng for their own different reasons to help Chu Lie resist the Hu Qi... Now that so many years have passed, Wu Ju is dead, and only the three of us are left. It has been a long time and a long time since we have not had a chance to take action. Ji Zi, Pang Tuo, I hope that when you two of you take action tonight, it will be as powerful as you were back then!"
Liezi Yufeng murmured, no one could truly understand his mood at this moment. For many years, he has been accustomed to loneliness and loneliness. Perhaps only by watching the sharpness of his old friends from afar can we evoke those distant memories!
At some point, a light suddenly burst out in his eyes. Because he had already seen that the qi broke through Nantian and was outside Zhaowu Gate.
"Fatty Pang...you are finally willing to take action!"
The sword energy suddenly rose, and the wind swelled and the clouds stormed. On the top of the high palace of Jinxiang Palace, Lao Ji, who was holding a jar of wine, also felt the movements on Zhaowu Gate. Unlike Lie Zi Yufeng, there was no expression on his face. He was neither happy nor surprised. He just narrowed his eyes slightly, raised his head to the sky, and drank drunk with the wind and dust. His drinking was the best tonight!
"The moon is dark and the wind is high, and the wine is like blood... It's a good time to kill people!"
The people outside Zhaowu Gate in Nancheng were absolutely not as easy as the two of them. The information received by the spies from Qianji Pavilion was accurate. In addition to the carefully organized most of the spies lurking in Zhao State to the death, there were two extremely powerful figures behind the formation. And they have arrived now.
