Assault on the Nightmare Tower

Nightmare Attack Chapter 26

In whose hand is the token of the alliance leader?

In this way, under the leadership of Mu Xuechen, the various sects in the Jianghu really surrounded the Heavenly Gu Sect.

The one who joined the Heavenly Gu Sect with Mu Xuechen was a young hero with outstanding lightness kung fu from the Wudang sect.When the two of them parted on the city wall, Mu Xuechen gave him a deep look.He knew that there was a high probability that that person would never come back.That person doesn't have Tiansi Snow Clothes to protect against poison, so he can't beat Leng Nu at all.But what I need is such a victim to hold back Leng Nu and give him time to rescue Gu Jingyan.

A human life is just not important to him at all.

He was such a cold person.

Re-entering the Heavenly Gu Sect, Mu Xuechen felt that it was much easier than entering it for the first time. He leaned against the wall and sneaked to the entrance of the dungeon, and waited there for a while, until the ear-piercing sound of weapons clashing could be heard in the distance.

That Wudang disciple had already entangled Leng Nu.

In this way, at this moment, it is the best time for him to rescue Gu Jingyan.

Mu Xuechen took out a small knife from his waist, and that knife had an extremely thin and sharp blade.Mu Xuechen inserted the knife into the gap between the stone bricks at the entrance of the dungeon, tilted the stone brick up, and entered the dungeon with a cat body.

At this moment, there is only one voice in his heart.

Wait for me, Gu Jingyan, you must wait for me.

You still owe me so much, you must not die.

When Mu Xuechen walked deep into the dungeon, he found that Gu Jingyan was still curled up in the fox fur as he had seen that day, looking really pitiful.

However, his body was still moving, and his chest was still heaving with breathing.

It's good, it's good that he's alive.

Afterwards, Mu Xuechen sent the disciples of the Wulin League to send Gu Jingyan back to the Wulin League for treatment, while he and the Wulin army stationed outside the Heavenly Gu Sect, watching helplessly as the people in the fortress ran out of ammunition and food.

The martial arts army stationed outside the Heavenly Gu Sect for seven days. All the Heavenly Gu Sect disciples who secretly escaped from the city to report for help were killed, and all those who wanted to transport supplies into the city from outside were captured.The head of Emei even smashed a century-old pine tree by the Lushui River outside the city with his heart-destroying palm, and the fallen thick tree cut off the water source.

Today, the Heavenly Gu Sect really has no place to retreat, and no way out.

After the siege battle lasted for fifteen days, Leng Nu, the leader of the Heavenly Gu Sect, stood above the city gate alone.Wearing a scarlet floor-length gauze, she looked so charming, so enchanting, and so sad under the golden light of the setting sun.She just had a bird's-eye view of the martial arts army surrounding the city, but she didn't say a word.

After the siege battle lasted for twenty days, more than half of the disciples in the Heavenly Gu Sect died.

After the siege battle lasted for 23 days, Leng Nu, the leader of Tiangu Sect, committed suicide in the flower hall inside the sedan chair.The disciples of the Heavenly Gu Sect who wished to survive opened the gates of the city wide, left the city and surrendered, hoping not to die.However, Wulin Zhengdao did not want to let the tigers go back to the mountain, and killed them one by one to avoid future troubles.

At this point, the Heavenly Gu Sect was finally destroyed.

Wu Linmeng, in Gu Jingyan's bedroom, Mu Xuechen sat at the table, and opened his mouth to swallow a lychee that Gu Jingyan had peeled for him.

"So, in the end, Leng Nu still died?"

"Yes." Mu Xuechen spat out and said softly. "That woman is also a strange person. She died Zhenlie. I think she is willing to use her own death to give her disciples a way to survive. It's a pity that none of her disciples survived after all."

Gu Jingyan lowered his head sadly, he suddenly remembered that the woman had told him that she had been imprisoned underground for 14 years, and that such a poor person could not end well now.

At this moment, my mind is full of the enchanting figure of that woman.

Mu Xuechen sat beside him, poured himself a cup of tea, raised the teacup, and said calmly: "Gu Jingyan, but, I don't understand, do you think those righteous Xiao Xiao who only care about their own lives are really worth your life for them? When it comes to crisis, you are just a bargaining chip that can protect themselves in their eyes, why have they ever regarded you as their master?"

Gu Jingyan smiled lightly, looked at him with rippling eyes, and said, "Mu Xuechen, are you thinking I'm not worth it?"

Mu Xuechen stopped moving, his throat choked: "Of course not, it's just that this time, I finally recognized the faces of those people."

"However, the lives of those people are indeed much more important than mine alone." Gu Jingyan said. "There was nothing wrong with their choice."

Mu Xuechen frowned, and said slightly annoyed: "However, if my palace lord is captured, I will risk my life to save him. If I can't even keep my own master, then in the future, in the Jianghu, there will be no What face do you have, and how should you stand?"

Gu Jingyan smiled softly, and said: "You are a loyal person."

"That's natural."

"Since you have nothing to do recently, would you like to go to a place with me?"

"where to?"

"Li Jiang." Gu Jingyan's face darkened a little, and his voice was a little melancholy. "Now it's only September. Although Lijiang is a small city in the south, it has been uncharacteristically snowing for three consecutive days. As a result, the river freezes, food harvests fail, and people's livelihoods are miserable."

But Mu Xuechen just sipped his tea and said: "The heavy snow in Lijiang, that is a natural disaster, and the government should be responsible for the loss. You are the leader of the martial arts alliance, so what does this have to do with you?"

Gu Jingyan just smiled: "You really think that the Wulin League doesn't care about anything other than the affairs of the Wulin? Since the establishment of the Wulin League, it has been the bridge and medium connecting the government and the Wulin. What's more, the heavy snow in Lijiang this time, the disaster situation Seriously, even if it’s nothing to do with me, I should go to help, not to mention that I am the leader of the martial arts alliance. Now Lijiang, the government director opens a warehouse to release food, but the rescue of the people and the exploration of the disaster also need the help of our martial arts alliance. What's more, now that the frontier is at war, how can the government have so many officers and soldiers to help the victims?"

"You go and do your own work, why do you have to take me with you?"

"I'm afraid that when I go there, I don't care about the disaster and just think about you in my mind."

Mu Xuechen chuckled, but snorted coldly: "The majestic martial arts lord is the most eloquent."

"are you going?"

"......go."

Lijiang once lived in Changchun all the year round.Flowers are red, willows are green, fish and rice are abundant in all seasons, and it has a gorgeous scenery especially in the south of the Yangtze River.

But now, this place is just a dilapidated small town covered with ice and snow, and there are only mournful sounds and broken walls and ruins everywhere.

Because they brought some relief supplies, Gu Jingyan and Mu Xuechen went in a carriage.When they arrived at the gate of the city, Gu Jingyan got out of the carriage and waited for a while, then took out a fox fur from the bag and put it on Mu Xuechen, and then let him get out of the carriage.

Mu Xuechen just got off the carriage, although he didn't feel very cold, but he couldn't help frowning when he saw the disaster everywhere.This former ancient city has already been trampled and shattered by the snow all over the sky. There are only bricks and tiles and walls shattered everywhere, and the desperate cries of women, children and old people can be heard beside my ears.

Although the government opened a granary to release grain, they didn't bring in a few bags of rice, they just boiled a pot of porridge with snow water.The porridge was so thin that it was not even beige, but there were still too many people. Thousands of disaster victims looted for the few rations. wait to die.

"Is this government blind? There are so many victims, why only so much food is brought in, and how can there be enough food for everyone?" Mu Xuechen glanced coldly from the corner of his eye, and had already glimpsed several bones that had died of cold and starvation . "If things go on like this, these disaster victims will just fend for themselves."

"Now is the time of national calamity. Tiele and Khitan have repeatedly invaded the border. The military funds are insufficient, the treasury is short of money, and natural disasters have been suffered again and again. Where can there be extra food to relieve the victims?"

"So what? Can we just let the people die?"

Gu Jingyan only patted him on the shoulder lightly: "There are some things, even if you are the emperor, there is nothing you can do about it."

While the two were talking, a little girl who was only six years old suddenly ran over from afar.The girl was extremely handsome, and the pair of dimples on her face added a bit of sweetness and cuteness.It's just that in this icy and snowy place, the little girl was only wearing a thin coat, and her feet were bare, her hands and feet were covered with chilblains, and they were red from the cold.But she herself didn't care about those things, she just trotted to Mu Xuechen, and asked in a low voice with a sad expression: "Big brother, do you have anything to eat?"

Mu Xuechen frowned slightly, but remained silent.

The little girl was still looking at him, with tears in her eyes and a very sad expression.She stretched out her hand cautiously, gently pulled the corner of Mu Xuechen's clothes, and said, "Big brother, my mother hasn't eaten for a long time, and my younger brother is going to starve to death. Although Yun'er is a little girl, it's no big deal." No, but if you are willing to serve your elder brother until the end of your life, then you can be your elder brother, so you can just buy Yun’er and be a maid, okay? Just one piece of dry food, one piece of dry food will do, save my mother, save my younger brother.”

Such a cute and pretty girl is only worth a piece of dry food?

In this time of natural disaster, human life is so contemptible?

Mu Xuechen squatted down, took off the fox fur on his body, and put it on the girl.He looked at the girl, gave a rare gentle smile, and said softly: "Good Yun'er, take this fur coat to your mother and brother to keep out the cold, the food will be here soon, big brother knows you are a How about a strong girl, just endure for a few more days?" Then, he gently stroked the girl's head and said, "Now many houses here are under the weight of ice and snow and may collapse at any time, you go back to your mother , don't run around, be obedient, okay?"

The girl nodded slightly, and said: "But, big brother, will there really be food in a few days? Will it really be able to save mother and younger brother?"

Mu Xuechen's throat choked, but he didn't know how to answer him.

Will the government still send food?He simply does not know.

Most likely, there will be none.But, how to let him speak?

In desperation, he only frowned, and continued: "Yun'er just listen to big brother. By the way, why is there only mother and brother in your family? Where is your father?"

Yun'er opened her watery eyes, and replied obediently: "Daddy, he went to Longya Mountain to look for Longya grass."

"Dragon tooth grass?" Mu Xuechen didn't know what it was, but turned to look at Gu Jingyan.

Gu Jingyan thought for a while, and then said: "It is said that the dragon's tooth grass is a supreme god that only grows in Longya Mountain. It becomes a thick soup, ordinary people drink it, it is very nourishing, but it will not be hungry or hungry for a month."

Mu Xuechen only felt a flash of inspiration in his mind.

Now that the disaster is like this, if we can get a dragon tooth grass, that would be great.

But, does the legendary fetish really exist?
