MTL - After the Fairy Disappeared-Chapter 62 we have all been lied to

  Chapter 62 We were all lied to

  He Lingchuan sneered, "Sun Guoshi asked us to go back to the south gate as soon as possible after we were done. He told us and threatened us, and set two hours. Don't you feel flattered? They only treat you like a messenger. When did you become so considerate?"

  Mao Tao immediately remembered the two "remembers" that Master Sun Guo earnestly said.

   "Just in case..."

   "What if?" Sudden concerns are often accompanied by ulterior motives, "In case something happens, how is it different from here at the South Gate? If you really need to rely on them, just rush over."

  He also spoke earnestly: "Do you think that the two of them seem to care about our lives? If that's the case, why should we care about them?"

  Mao Tao thought for a while, then nodded: "You are right, listen to you!"

  He Yue was writing furiously in the official office.

  The weather in Qiansong County is much better than that in Panlong Desert, but it is still terribly hot at the end of August, and everyone is waiting for the thunderstorm to cool Heishui City.

  Today was particularly irritable. He was correcting official documents while wiping sweat from his forehead.

   Seeing this, the guard at the back found a big cattail fan and said, "Second Young Master, I'll come."

   Within two blows of the fan, news flew in from outside:

  Panlong Desert is showing its power, and the crazy sand season has been advanced.

   With a thud, the pen in He Yue's hand fell to the table, staining several documents.

  The crazy sand season has begun, but my father and elder brother haven't come back yet.

  Really bad news.

  The guard called him several times in a low voice, only then did He Yue come back to his senses, and said in a shy voice: "Add more people for security, the city is not peaceful these days."

   Every time the crazy sand season is advanced, it will lead to loss of personnel and property. The disputes between the injured people, the families of the victims, and the chamber of commerce brigade soared.

  In previous years, He Chunhua also often dealt with cases of picking quarrels and fighting to death after the arrival of the wild sand season.

  Thinking of his father, He Yue felt a chill in his heart.

   Mrs. Ying waits for news in her house every day, should he send back bad news?

  This afternoon, he stayed in the official office for several hours, but he couldn't handle one more official business.

  It wasn't until dark that the boy stood up listlessly, ready to go home.

  When he went back home, he never resisted like this time.

   But at this moment a messenger came suddenly, and eleven crumpled and sealed letters were presented to him:

   "The east road has been opened. This is the letter that was stagnated in Jiaxinguan, and it was sent here at once."

  He Yue saw so many letters, his heart skipped a beat: How many major events happened in the east?

  Qiansong County is located in a remote area, and there is no direct waterway from east to west. Letters from the capital must go through Woling Pass and Jiaxin Pass to reach here.

  The mountains along the road are steep and dangerous. If you make a detour, you will have to walk for three more months. The road conditions are particularly bad, and generally no one does it.

  Before He Chunhua went to Panlong Desert, he was thinking about the situation in the east. Even if his last wish is fulfilled, He Yue has to read these letters.

  He opened one without any hassle, and after taking a second look, his brows frowned, and quickly opened another one.

   And then the next one.

   "It's unreasonable!" He Yue slammed his fist heavily on the table, and there was a loud "bang", which startled the officers nearby.

  The Second Young Master He has always been gentle and elegant, like a copy of the sheriff, why is he suddenly so angry?

  He Yue's eyes were red. For the first time in his life, he felt such grief and hatred.

   "Father, brother, your death is not worth it!" He gritted his teeth and said, "We were all cheated!"

  The boy stood up and walked out.

  Now, he has two bad news to pass back home.

  Nian Songyu carried the last box of crossbow bolts to the wall.

  Each box here weighs several hundred catties. Even though he is a master of martial arts, even after transporting forty boxes to the wall, his arms feel numb and the soles of his feet feel heavy.

  Sun Fuping had already stood on the top of the wall and looked down: "Is it all shipped up?" He was old and had a high status, so naturally he would not do such chores.

  With He Lingchuan and the other two absent, these jobs will fall to Nian Songyu.

   "Well, it's gone." Nian Songyu panted heavily, "Those two **** have gone to hell, their hands and feet are so slow!"

  He rested for a while, and poured a special grease on the weapon, also known as kerosene.

  Whether it is a long crossbow or a throwing stone, the power will double after being lit, effectively killing the enemy. But now, the two are interested in their ability to set fire to the city.

  Nian Songyu opened a box casually, first startled, then overjoyed: "It turned out to be a nail bomb!"

  Cannons have long appeared in the world, but their power is ordinary, and the interval between firing them is long.

  But the box of "nail bombs" is to add tiny iron nails to the pig iron shells, and after landing, it will explode in all directions with flames, which not only kills people, but also easily causes infection.

  Nian Songyu loaded the nail bullet and dusted off the dust on his hands: "Is it two o'clock?"

   "It's coming soon." Sun Fuping sat on the box and looked ahead, "The north has never been burned."

   "The sand bandits were dispatched to the north, did he escape?" Nian Songyu came over and set up an arbor with his hands, "Why don't we fire the cannon first."

"hold on."

  The national teacher said to wait, so he must wait.

   In the blink of an eye, another half an hour passed.

  The main street under the city was empty.

  Nian Songyu gulped down a few mouthfuls of water: "What do you think?"

   "Remind them?"

  Nian Songyu shrugged his shoulders and shouted: "He Lingchuan, hurry back to the south gate!" There was also the sand bandit, but he couldn't remember the name.

  He yelled three times in a row, resounding throughout Panlong Nancheng.

  Perhaps this place is so spacious that there is an echo. If He Lingchuan was on his way, he should be able to hear it.

   After waiting for a while, the city was still empty.

  He roared again: "Light the fire at the south gate, life and death are at your own risk!"

   I will catch fire later, not to mention other accidents, the fire will burn these two to death!

   After half an hour, Sun Fuping finally stood up: "The sand bandits are with He Lingchuan. They are on guard and won't come over."

  The fire in the north has never burned. If the Sand Bandit hadn't encountered an accident, he would have gone to meet He Lingchuan.

   "That cub of the He family has never been angry with me." Nian Songyu asked him, "What should we do now?"

"The houses on the east and west sides are all on fire. There is no abnormality. Then the key to breaking the situation is indeed in the south. This is also in line with my inference. Those two boys, no, it is the He family boy who has become suspicious. .He is not as reckless as we thought." The fire in the distance seemed to dance in Sun Fuping's eyes, "Think it's safe like this? Naive! Light the fire."

  The last three words, he said to Nian Songyu.

  Nian Songyu hesitated slightly: "Your original plan for the Heishuicheng Army?"

   "They are standing in my magic circle."

  One sentence dispelled Nian Songyu's doubts, and she fired her crossbow.
