Chapter 431 Dark clouds are over the city, and a storm is coming

In the spring of March, the grass grows and the orioles fly, and everything revives.

In Liangzhou, located in the southern border of Dayao, the plum rain season has passed and the warmth of late spring has ushered in.

At this time, Guijun's county town lacked the warmth and tenderness of spring. There was an aura of chilling despair inside and outside the county town.

As the governor of Gui County, Su Hong had imagined many bad situations about himself, but he never thought that the governor's mansion in the county would one day become his prison!

Just over twenty days ago, Wang Yang, the Marquis of Nanqing, who had taken refuge with a foreign race, suddenly came to the city like a divine soldier. With the help of a group of experts, he broke through the gate of the county city and captured many Yao officials.

Although he knew that Wang Yang had betrayed Dayao more than half a year ago, the areas he and the barbarians had been attacking were the central and western parts of Liangzhou. Su Hong thought that the other party would not have much interest in the barren southeast because it was far away from Jingzhou. It's too far and has no strategic significance.

In Su Hong's opinion, for military purposes, Wang Yang and the barbarians should go straight to the west of Liangzhou and capture those strategic areas, so as to open up a connection with the Rong tribe who invaded Yongzhou. The worst option is to go straight to Jingzhou in the north and directly Threatening the center of Dayao's abdomen.

Su Hong couldn't figure out why Wang Yang, who was quite talented in military affairs, would give up the best option and instead turn around and walk eastward to go to Guijun, a place where birds don't shit, to cause trouble.

It wasn't until he met Wang Yang that he realized that the latter was not coming for Guijun, nor for him, but for Chu Tang!

Chu Tang!

This name is not unfamiliar to Su Hong - in fact, what Chu Tang did before leaving Liangzhou was too sensational and evil!

A policeman dared to break into the Nanqing Hou Mansion in a majestic manner and kill the prince of the Hou Mansion with a knife. Such a person cannot help but impress others.

What's more, Su Hong and Chu Tang have a different relationship——

First of all, the two of them were subordinates before. Chu Tang was a police officer in Gui County, and Su Hongzai was the boss of Gui County, which was also the boss of Boss Chu Tang.

The younger brother killed someone else's son, and the other party was a marquis of the imperial court. It was impossible for Su Hong not to be worried, for fear that Marquis Nanqing would come to Gui County to question him indiscriminately.

At that time, Su Hong almost announced that he had severed all relations with Chu Tang. That is to say, he thought of Chu Tang's contribution in escorting his daughter to Qingcheng, so he decided to wait and see for a while.

After waiting and watching, Chu Tang escaped from the pursuit and disappeared in Liangzhou!

What makes Su Hong more fortunate is that Wang Yang has died down since Chu Tang left Liangzhou and did not do anything crazy.

This made Su Hong feel relatively relieved.

But what he didn't expect was that Wang Yang just held his breath, and the ensuing revenge was jaw-dropping - he directly united with the aliens to rebel, and the purpose was just to get the court to hand over Chu Tang to him!

In order to take revenge, he would not hesitate to abandon the justice of his family and country and betray his own nation with foreigners. Is there anything crazier than this?

Su Hong asked himself that he couldn't do such a thing. If he didn't think about his family, he also had to think about his reputation. How could Wang Yang be so indifferent!

However, Wang Yang did just that, and after taking Qingcheng, he suddenly turned his gun and attacked Guijun.

Guijun, which had been preparing for war after the barbarian invasion, still seemed too weak in front of Wang Yang's tens of thousands of troops. In addition, there were many masters on the other side, and the high walls and gates were of no use to the masters of the eighth and ninth realms. In just half a day's effort, the city of Guijun was lost.

The only thing that Su Hong admired was that Wang Yang still maintained his basic demeanor and did not make it too difficult for officials like them. He even gave Su Hong the prefect's mansion to keep, but Su Hong became a prisoner and was imprisoned in the prefect's mansion. , not allowed to go out.

Afterwards, more people moved into the prefect's mansion. After some inquiring, Su Hong found that these people had a close relationship with Chu Tang, such as Xu Wei, the arrester of the Shixian Yamen, and Xu Jin, one of the arresters...

They are all Chu Tang’s relatives and friends in Shi County!

Finally, to Su Hong's surprise and joy, he met his daughter Su Qingyue in Gui County!

When he heard that Qingcheng had been lost, Su Hong was very worried because his precious daughter was in Qingcheng.

As he thought, Wang Yang did not let anyone related to Chu Tang go, and his daughter Su Qingyue was escorted all the way to Qingcheng by Chu Tang. For this reason, many turmoils were caused, and the entire Qingcheng Everyone knew clearly that Wang Yang could not let go of this clue.

Before that, he was worried about his daughter's fate, but Wang Yang solved the problem for him and sent Su Qingyue directly to Guijun as a prisoner.

Along with them came some people from their Su family in Qingcheng, as well as some teachers and students from Wutong Academy.

What surprised Su Hong was that even Tao Ying, the dean of Wutong Academy, was not spared!

When Tao Ying was sent to the prefect's mansion, she was in an extremely depressed state, like a man without the strength to tie a chicken.

It turned out that when the barbarians and Wang Yang besieged Qingcheng, she led a group of masters from Wutong Academy to participate in the defense of the city. When faced with a desperate situation, she broke through to the seventh realm and became a master of the upper three realms.

Unfortunately, before she could kill everyone, she encountered Luo Changying, a master of the Nine Realms from Luoshen Valley. Before she could use ten moves, she was defeated by Luo Changying's finger sword and was blocked by the opponent. Meridian became an ordinary person and became one of the prisoners sent to Guijun.

In short, in the past half month or so, Su Hong has seen more and more people related to Chu Tang becoming his companions. All of them were placed in the Prefect's Mansion, and many of Wang Yang's soldiers and horses from Luoshen Valley were surrounded outside. master.

This situation gave Su Hong an unpleasant feeling, as if dark clouds were pressing down on the city and the city was about to be destroyed, and the mountain rain was about to come and the wind filled the building.

"Wang Yang wants to use Gui County as Chu Tang's tomb, and all of us are his bait?" Su Hong, as smart as he was, had already thought of this possibility.

Even when he discussed it with Tao Ying, the other party had the same view.

Su Hong was worried about whether Chu Tang would come.

If you come, you will die; if you don't come, it may be them, the hostages, who die.

"He will definitely come!" Tao Ying said with certainty.

"Why?" Su Hong expressed doubt.

Tao Ying explained: "Once a warrior reaches the upper three realms, if he wants to go to the next level, he does not rely on the accumulation of skills, but relies on comprehension. And comprehension is the category of the spiritual realm. If the spirit is not perfect, the realm It is also difficult to improve.

"Why did Wang Yang suddenly give up on his bright future and not become a traitor? It's because he had a mental disorder! Chu Tang killed his only son, and he couldn't kill Chu Tang to avenge him. This became his inner demon. Therefore, he must find a way to kill Chu Tang, otherwise the inner demon will be difficult to get rid of and will drive him crazy.

"The same truth holds true for Chu Tang. Unless Chu Tang is a cold-blooded person, otherwise he will ignore the lives of so many relatives and friends and watch Wang Yang kill us, and he will also become a lingering influence in his life. The inner demon that won’t go away! As long as he still wants to achieve success in martial arts, he has to come even if he doesn’t come this time!”

"Even if you are here to die?" Su Hong still didn't believe it.

Tao Ying was silent after hearing this. After a long time, he smiled bitterly and said: "This time it is obviously not a one-on-one challenge. I hope that Chu Tang will be accompanied by the imperial army or top experts. Otherwise... when we come to Guijun, there will be Luo Shen Valley with us. Changying, he is the ultimate master of the Nine Realms..."

Su Hong also felt that if Chu Tang really came to Guijun, he would have a narrow escape this time.

Everyone couldn't help but worry about Chu Tang.

On the morning of March 15th, Su Hong and others watched in surprise as Wang Yang sent someone to take them out of the prefect's mansion.

This was the first time they left the house after being imprisoned for nearly a month. In the end, they found that they were being led up to the city wall of the county!

"Chu Tang is here?" This was the first thought that came to everyone's mind.
