Chapter 278 Infiltration
In a restaurant in Qinghefang.
Two casual cultivators in somewhat ordinary clothes were enjoying a meal in a private room.
"Brother Meng, the eldest brother asked me to ask how your plan is going. How sure are you that the raid will be successful?" The speaker was a middle-aged man with a scar deep into his cheekbones.
Sitting opposite him was a square-faced man with a mustache. Hearing the middle-aged man's anxious questions, he quickly looked around and then said softly: "Lu Yuanfeng has gone to the Huang family to attend the banquet. Song Qingyu is the only one left in the city. Please tell Brother that we are all ready and we are just waiting for the order from Brother."
"That's good. I'll go back and report the news first. As for the brothers who sneaked in with me, I'll leave it to you to command. It's all up to you tonight." The middle-aged man said slowly, and then Left here alone.
"It seems that things will start to change in Qinghefang after tonight." The square-faced man also muttered a few words to himself.
After nightfall, thousands of lights began to light up in Qinghe Square. A relaxed-looking Song Changxiong and several monks from the Song family who were selected into the law enforcement team were walking freely through the streets to inspect the safety of the entire city.
Whenever it was their turn to be on duty, Song Changxiong always used to take a few people out for a walk at night. Just when they reached a corner, two monks wearing bamboo hats suddenly walked towards them, heading east quickly. Go, and after passing by him, Song Changxiong saw that the two of them were wearing bamboo hats and going out at night. He suddenly felt something was wrong, turned around and shouted to the two of them: "Stop! Which monk are you from?"
As soon as they heard this voice, the two monks in bamboo hats saw that the patrolling law enforcement team called out to them. They immediately panicked and gritted their teeth and ran away through the night.
Seeing that these two people did not come over to cooperate with their inspection as usual, they immediately ran away without a trace. Song Changxiong and the others were also stunned, wondering what happened.
"You are such a shady person! How dare you do sneaky things here? I'm really too lenient with you on weekdays. Why are you standing around when you have work to do? Follow me!" was the first to react! Song Changxiong smiled and shouted into the distance, and then led the people around him to catch up.
The figures of the two groups of people soon began to rush around in Qinghefang. Those who were still busy saw that someone on the street dared to go against the monks of the Fang City Law Enforcement Team, and they suddenly became interested, thinking that this time it was... There is a good show to watch.
But a moment later, they didn't get the expected good show. Two loud sounds came one after another, instantly shaking the entire Qinghefang. A trace of panic appeared on everyone's face. Know what happened.
Now it is not only Song Changxiong and the monks of the Qinghefang Law Enforcement Team, but everyone in the entire Qinghefang has noticed that something is wrong. However, they are also used to living a peaceful life. After reacting, many people do not even know that they are How should I face this? I stared blankly at the deep sky in the night.
Song Qingyu, who was in retreat in the cave, was startled by the loud noise. He hurriedly left his cave and came to the market. He happened to meet Song Changxiong and his men chasing several unidentified monks.
"Uncle Thirteen, don't worry about these people for now. It seems that someone is going to attack Fangshi. Hurry up and control the entrance to Fangshi's gate and activate the Fangshi Mountain Protection Formation!"
After hearing Song Qingyu's reminder, Song Changxiong also reacted and realized that the top priority was not to waste time with these people. He hurriedly led his troops to the formation control areas around Fang City without stopping.
Looking at the mess in front of him, which was bombed into ruins, Song Changxiong's face instantly became very ugly. The noises just now should have happened here. The group of people he just encountered seemed to have planned it. , I came here for the Fangshi Mountain Protection Formation.
On a hill more than ten miles away from Qinghefang, Cheng Yilong looked at Qinghefang, which was already lit up in the distance. A smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he shouted to the many monks behind him: "Brothers, Qinghefang is here tonight." It’s ours, come with me to get it!”
At Cheng Yilong's order, hundreds of bandit cultivators from Yingchao Ridge appeared from all directions and had firmly surrounded the entire Qinghefang.
Cheng Yilong and the two foundation-building monks took the lead and flew to the top of Fang City and shouted loudly inside: "Fellow Taoists, we are here just for money today. If we don't want to die, we voluntarily withdraw from Qinghe Fang. We will definitely not It will hurt you. When we go in later, no matter who you are, no one will be left behind.
Although their threatening tone was very scary, no one in Fang City dared to respond to them and ran out to surrender. After all, most of the people in Fang City now have families and businesses in Qinghe County. How dare you trust these cruel robbers so easily.
Furthermore, the Fangshi Mountain Protection Formation is still there, so logically speaking, we are not at the end of our rope yet.
Seeing that their words failed to work, the three people began to use their magic power to attack the protective formation beneath them. Suddenly, several more shocking noises appeared in the sky above Fangshi.
"The power of this mountain-protecting formation has been weakened by most. Everyone, step up the attack for me. Victory is in sight." Feeling the mana fluctuations of the Qinghefang mountain-protecting formation, Cheng Yilong also knew that the operations inside were successful.
This time, the operation at Yingchao Ridge was at the right time and place. Not only did they catch Lu Yuanfeng's departure, but he also found several control points of the Qinghefang Mountain Protection Formation with the help of the traitor.
If Song Changxiong hadn't accidentally hit a group of bandit cultivators who were trying to destroy the formation at the northwest corner, none of the four mountain-protecting formation control points in Qinghefang would have been spared. Now Qinghe It would be impossible for the sky above Fang to return the protection of the mountain guard formation.
A total of four teams of monks were sent out to Yingchao Ridge, but only two teams succeeded. One team was discovered by Thirteenth Uncle Song Changxiong in advance. There was another group that failed to break through the monks who were guarding the formation control point in time. As a result, they fell short and were promptly reinforced by the Fang City Law Enforcement Team, who killed them in Fang City.
However, two core parts of the mountain-protecting formation have been destroyed, and the power of the formation has been reduced by more than half. Attacked by so many monks outside at the same time, it will definitely not be able to hold on for long. When I see the bandits suddenly appearing from all directions outside, Xiu, Song Qingyu felt a little headache and together with Song Changxiong began to organize manpower to guard Fang City, ready for a decisive battle with the opponent at any time.
"Uncle Thirteen, now the mountain-protecting formation is in danger. We only have so many people now. Once the formation is breached, we will definitely not be able to stop it. I think we still have to find a way to contain it, so that we can wait until July 7. Brother and the others came to support.”
A signal for help has been sent, but unfortunately almost all the foundation-building monks in Qinghe County have already gone to Taiyuan Mountain. Song Qingyu also knows that from Taiyuan Mountain to Qinghefang, even if the foundation-building monks fly at full strength, it will take For almost two hours, how to defend the city during this time has become a headache for everyone in Qinghefang.
