Chapter 1278: Seems Not a Loss
On the other side.
Ye Fusheng was hiding in an abandoned pit, perhaps infected by the little girl's innocence or the satisfaction of helping her afterwards.
Happy from within.
As for why the fish swarm, it's very simple. Just a faint scent is enough to attract them. To put it crudely, it's like throwing a hint of blood into a cage full of predators.
Anyone in Fengdu could do it, but perhaps the faint “bloodiness” I just poured in had already exceeded what they needed to maintain their soul bodies.
“It seems the guards aren't stupid. They stationed themselves by the river, which means they figured I hadn't entered the city yet. After what just happened, they must have increased security, making it even harder to get in.”
Thinking about this.
Ye Fusheng's mood was somewhat heavy.
The Judgement Hall was right before his eyes, he just needed to go there and there would be hope of finding Ginger Cai Ni. But in the middle, stood a chasm that seemed impossible to cross.
"No."
Ye Fusheng's expression suddenly became stern, his face extremely serious: "They were guarding the riverbank, they did determine that I didn't enter the city. Since they determined that I didn't enter the city, why don't they come to this boundless city to look for me"
They can be sure that no one has entered, yet they don't come out to look. This is contradictory in itself.
"There is only one answer, they don't have enough manpower!"
"The Endless City is much larger than Changsheng Town, and there are many more people. They can't search thoroughly, so they can only sit back and wait."
"So, that's opportunity!"
Thinking about this.
Ye Fusheng swiftly got up and peered out. The outside was, as before, undisturbed with no sign of movement. The city wall was just a short distance away, with no changes on its surface.
Rush out and head towards the city gates.
……
City gate.
Two ghosts approached two guards.
With a smile, he carefully asked: "Gentlemen, who was that man you were just talking about Who could possibly cause such a stir"
I was too curious. After all, there were unusual occurrences in Fengdu. The guards who never entered the city actually came in. All signs pointed to something big happening.
Before, the captain dared not ask here. Now, with only two guards remaining, he dares to ask.
Two guards glanced at each other.
Hmph, "Keep your mouth shut and don't ask what you shouldn't. Be careful or you'll regret it!"
Two ghost messengers were still smiling, their smiles brighter than flowers.
"I understand, I understand, keep it confidential, but we brothers aren't strangers either. It's okay to let slip a little, right"
"So, tell us, we can also do our part, right"
Two guards burst into laughter, sneering: "What use are you lot of pampered city dogs What could you possibly tell us"
"You guys, take a good look in the mirror, do you even know yourselves"
"Hahaha."
Seeing the two guards laughing hysterically, the faces of the two ghost messengers finally changed. They knew that the guards looked down on them, but they also looked down on them. Wasn't it just standing at the city gate showing off
What did they do while maintaining the city
The ghost clerk retorted, "If we're not supposed to know, why did you ask us in the first place Isn't there something you need our help with"
The guard, upon hearing this, immediately glared with fury: "What are you saying You're asking to be skinned alive!"
The ghost messenger felt guilty, but now that things had come to this, he couldn't back down.
"Scoffed, 'This is the inner city of Fengdu, our turf. Don't overestimate yourselves!'"
The guard immediately roared, "Dare you sass me Take this!"
The ghost soldier puffed out his chest and said, "Move if you dare, don't think we're afraid of you!"
Both parties drew their weapons as they spoke.
Just as tensions were running high.
Suddenly, a man walked onto the main road. He was wearing silk clothing that didn't match the simple style of the outside world at all. He looked quite luxurious.
One of the guards tensed instantly upon seeing this.
blurted out, “Right there!”
Heard a sound.
The man ahead turned and ran.
Two guards chased after him without a word, forgetting to even argue with the ghost messenger.
The ghost guards looked at their retreating figures, exchanged glances, and quickly chased after them. They weren't there to help, but the man's attire was identical to the one they had questioned earlier. Though they didn't know who he was, being able to allow a guard to enter the inner city for an arrest meant he was very important. If they could catch him, they too could share in the reward.
The journey is not long.
A short hundred zhang thereafter.
The guard raised the soul-whupping whip in his hand and lashed it down hard.
Slap!
The whip landed accurately on the person.
"Aw..."
The man fell to the ground, his mouth contorting in a heart-wrenching scream. His voice was so shrill and piercing, it sounded like a banshee's wail.
The guard caught up to him, stomping his foot heavily and boasting, "You useless vermin, you actually thought you could escape in front of me You... who are you"
Midway through the sentence, I finally saw this person's face. There was no trace of makeup, his complexion pale and weak, the appearance of someone who hadn't eaten in a long time.
This outfit doesn't quite fit.
It was completely different from the one I saw in Changsheng Town.
"My Lord, I was wrong, I won't do it again, please don't hit me, please..."
"Be quiet!"
The guard shouted, glaring angrily, "I ask you, where did this clothing come from, and why are you running"
"He trembled and replied, 'I found the clothes on the road. I thought you suspected me of stealing them, so I ran.'"
"Then why did you come to the city"
I want to go into the city and sell my clothes for some money.
Two guards were rendered speechless, unable to find a flaw in his words. They suspected he was lying but had no evidence to support their claim.
Tap tap tap.
Two grim reapers finally arrived, raising their soul-binding chains to tightly bind the man.
“With righteous indignation, he declared: “Shameless wretch, the end has finally come for you. You won't get away with this!”
"Return to the city with me at once. If you dare resist, beware of the soul chains in my grandfather's hands. Come now, let's go!"
Hearing what the two said, the guard was momentarily stunned.
Two Ghost Guards looked over with serious expressions and said, "We two have captured him. Let's go back together to hand him over to Captain Gu. You don't need to thank us!"
Two guards were about to speak when suddenly they noticed a man in plain clothes walking towards the city gate from afar. A bad feeling came over them, as if that man was the one they were looking for.
Do not give them any time to react.
The man stopped, glanced back, and a knowing smile played on his lips. Then he quickened his pace and melted into the crowd within the city.
The ghost messenger also followed his gaze, and when he saw the man blend into the crowd, he retracted his eyes.
Blackface said, “Why aren’t you speaking Don’t you want to monopolize the credit I tell you, there's no way. My Soul Binding Lock is already on him, he won’t be able to let go.”
"Yes, we caught the human together! No one can escape us!"
Two guards withdrew their gazes, when they saw the ghost messenger's face, their emotions were completely unable to be concealed. They raised their soul-suppressing whips in their hands and lashed out at the two of them, while shouting angrily: "I swallow you spicy..."
"Aw…"
Two ghosts were being pulled and screamed in pain, they retracted the soul-binding chains to counterattack.
The man in front saw an opportunity and quickly ran away, muttering as he went, “A lash for a change of clothes doesn't seem like a bad deal…”or so people, all of them warriors from the Wu Kingdom.The mighty Wuwang spoke in fluent Daxia, his voice cold as he said: "This is the territory of Yue. Please return to Daxia immediately, or face th...
