Chapter 297
I don't know if it's because the battle has just started, anyway, there are still as many guards in the Guo Mansion as usual.

Sun Jue returned home after gaining some knowledge.

As for whether Guo Ming can find a way to deal with Taiping Dao, that is not something Sun Jue should worry about.

Sun Jue continued to do his own thing, waiting for the opportunity.

night.

At this time, the shouts of killing at the tower had stopped, and the two sides had withdrawn their troops.

And Sun Jue came to his residence under the leadership of the servants sent by Qi Heng.

"Dalang, you are here, sit down."

Qi Heng's tough face showed a bit of fatigue. He was wearing loose clothes at this time, his hair was loose, and it was still a little dry, most likely because he had just showered.

Sun Jue took advantage of the situation and sat down, then asked, "I don't know how the battle is going?"

"It's still able to withstand it. Based on the current situation, it shouldn't be a big problem to persist for ten days and a half months, but..."

Qi Heng sighed, picked up the tea in front of him, and took a big sip.

"Sigh, the Taoism of the Taiping Dao has too much influence. Only by seeing it with your own eyes can you know how powerful it is. It can be said that it has brought earth-shaking changes to the troops of the Taiping Dao."

"Things that could have been easily killed suddenly became hard to hurt. Even if they don't have much discipline, they are still very difficult to deal with."

"Even if it doesn't last long, a stick of incense is enough for them to kill many soldiers!"

"If it weren't for the favorable location, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to hold on for a day."

There was a trace of struggle in Qi Heng's eyes.

If this continues, the army in Rongcheng will suffer heavy casualties, and I am afraid that they will not last for a few days.

"I heard that Lord Sheriff can use his own skills to heal the wounded? It should be able to offset some of the effects, right?"

This is what Sun Jue heard from Guo Hun just now.

The Guo family's inheritance technique is called the Aoki Longevity Kungfu. After reaching the Earth Shade Realm, it has the ability to heal others. A fatal wound can become a serious injury, a serious injury can become a minor injury, and a minor injury can be cured.

Under such circumstances, it is enough for many soldiers to have the courage to exchange injuries with the enemy, and the casualties will be greatly reduced.

"The county guard does have this ability, but he is only one person, and the scope and duration of his exercises are limited, and it is too serious to be undone."

"Thus, although some effects can be offset, the effect can only be said to be passable. Of course, it is much better than nothing, but that's all."

Qi Heng sighed again, "If I am also a warrior in the Earth Fiend Realm, maybe I can make a difference."

Sun Jue was silent. At Qi Heng's age, he had no inheritance, and he was not a genius.

He wanted to break through the evil realm, but it was as difficult as climbing to the sky.

"Second Uncle Qi, have you made any other arrangements? Have all the family members been sent away?"

"It's already sent away, that's when I told you to come here before, but unfortunately you said you didn't want to leave."

Qi Heng looked at the young man in front of him, "However, with your ability and the fact that you don't have much to do with us, even if the Taiping Dao comes in, it won't affect you much, and it really doesn't matter if you leave or not."

He stared at Sun Jue, and suddenly said, "Da Lang, I have something to ask of you, and I hope you can promise me."

In Qi Heng's sharp eyes, there was a rare look of pleading.

"I don't know what it is? As long as I can do it, I will never refuse."

Sun Jue didn't know what Qi Heng begged him for.

However, Qi Heng has taken care of him a lot these days.

Sun Jue felt that he might not be able to save Qi Heng, but if he promised him one thing, he should still be able to do it.

"I sent Boyang and some clansmen to Mingzhou, but the current situation is extremely chaotic. I hope that if you have time in the future, you can take a look at them for me and see how they are doing. .”

Qi Heng still couldn't worry about his family.

He already had predictions about his own fate, and it was probably inevitable that he would die.

But he didn't want his family to live a miserable life.

As for why he got rid of Sun Jue, who is also in the innate realm and has no background, it can only be said that he is out of intuition.

He felt that Sun Jue's achievements in the future must be limitless, which is why he was very optimistic about Sun Jue from the beginning, and has been taking care of him a lot.

Without any blood relationship, the reason why he favored Sun Jue was because of appreciation and investment.

Although there is no way to continue investing now, he hopes that Sun Jue can take care of his family because of fate.

Sun Jue agreed without any hesitation: "Second Uncle Qi, don't worry, if I go to Mingzhou, I will definitely find them."

"Then I don't worry. There is a high probability that they will be in Cangmu County in Mingzhou. As for where they will settle down, I don't know."

The reason why Qi Heng arranged his family to Cangmu County was because that place had been taken back by the imperial army, and he had a close friend in Cangmu County.

It's just that the situation is changing now, and he is not sure about the situation over there.

And whether the road goes smoothly, whether he can arrive safely, is beyond his control.

This is also the reason why he asked Sun Jue to take a look on his behalf, because there is a high probability that he himself will not be able to wait for that day.

Sun Jue nodded solemnly: "Don't worry, I will definitely go there, and no matter what the result is, I will definitely find them."

"I believe you."

In fact, it's not that Qi Heng didn't think about leaving with his family.

However, with so many people under him, when he and Guo Ming overthrew Yang with him, how could he abandon them at such a critical moment and run for his life alone?

"Second Uncle Qi, why don't you take your subordinates and leave here together?"

Sun Jue was a little puzzled, since Qi Heng had already anticipated the current situation, why didn't he take people away earlier?

Qi Heng shook his head, showing an ugly smile.

"Guo Ming won't let me take away part of the power of Rongcheng, otherwise how can he persist?"

Sun Jue didn't ask Guo Ming why he didn't take anyone away.

The difficulty of leaving the homeland may be one reason, but the root cause is power.

When Yang Shi joined Taiping Dao, Guo Ming did not fall out with Yang Shi for his own power, but chose to acquiesce in such a result.

But when the imperial court dispatched the forbidden army to suppress the rebellion, he saw the opportunity and overthrew Yang Shi again.

Even at this moment, he still held on to the idea of ​​holding on for a little longer and waiting for the reinforcements from the imperial court, so crazy that he didn't even send his family away.

That's right, the Guo family didn't leave much room for retreat.

What Guo Hui said about making some arrangements before was just talking about the escape route after the city was broken.

According to the information Sun Jue got from Guo Hui, Guo Ming planned to use such a big gamble to wash away his previous behavior.

If he can succeed, it will be a matter of course for him to become the sheriff, and maybe he will be praised.

The previous default slave will also become a burden of humiliation.

With such a reputation and achievements, if there is any connection in the future, it must be a prosperous official career.

The reason why Guo Hui told Sun Jue this was that he hoped that Sun Jue would go with them and have a helper.

He is still very optimistic about Sun Jue's strength.

Sun Jue talked about this for a while, and then comforted him, "Second Uncle Qi, if Guo Ming dares to do this, he might have someone behind him."

After all, Guo Hui said before that Guo Ming was not sure how long he would stay, but he made such an arrangement again.

If there is no backer, is it just a gamble on luck?
Guo Ming shouldn't be that stupid.

It's just that Sun Jue was a little uncertain.

After all, the ending of the two of them is not very good, even if there is some backup, it is probably useless.

In other words, even if it is useful, it cannot turn the tide of the battle.

[Perhaps we can only delay for some time, but still haven't waited for the imperial army? 】

Sun Jue was thinking in his heart, but he didn't say it out. He just wanted to comfort Qi Heng and give him a glimmer of hope.

Besides, the predicted picture may not necessarily become a reality.

Qi Heng nodded slightly: "Maybe, no matter what, I have prepared for the worst."

It was almost midnight when we left Qi Heng's residence.

Thinking that Qi Heng would die at the top of the city soon, Sun Jue couldn't help but sigh.

"Sure enough, my strength is still not enough. If I have the cultivation base of Tiangang Realm at this time, maybe I can reverse this situation."

A sense of urgency appeared in Sun Jue's rare heart.

During this period of time, he didn't feel much threat, so he naturally lived easily, without any sense of urgency.

Encountering such a thing now can be regarded as breaking Sun Jue out of his leisurely mood.

"If I want to protect myself, my strength is far from enough."

Sun Jue thought for a while: "The so-called one-shot, then decline, and three-time exhaustion, if the commander of Taipingdao doesn't want to fight a protracted war, he will probably launch a fierce attack in the next few days and try to win it all. Guo Ming these days There is a high probability that I will concentrate all my energy on this aspect, and this is my opportunity."

Sun Jue planned to wait another two days, and even if the Guo family's guards had not weakened, he planned to give it a try.

"After the Variety and Thousand Illusions reached the Earth Shade Realm, there is a part of the use of spiritual illusions. Although I have not yet reached the Earth Shade Realm, my mental power is extremely strong after all, so I can use it a little earlier, which may be helpful. .”

……

In the next few days, Sun Jue seemed to stay at home peacefully, but secretly observed the situation in Guo's residence.

He even went to observe around the Guo Mansion in person at night.

Finally, on the fifth day of the battle between Taipingdao and Rongcheng, Sun Jue noticed that the guarding force of Guo Mansion had finally weakened.

Moreover, Sun Jue got the news that Guo Ming lived on the tower and did not come down. He planned to use this to boost morale.

At the same time, he selected strong men in the city to help defend the city, which also had the effect of stabilizing the people in the city.

In this way, Sun Jue was given a good chance.

That night, the time had come to the wee hours of the morning.

According to these days of observation and inquiries, Sun Jue easily slipped into Guo's mansion from a dead corner of surveillance.

Sun Jue was already very familiar with the terrain of Guo Mansion.

After dodging a group of patrolling soldiers, Sun Jue headed towards the study at an extremely fast speed.

"Ok?"

After approaching the study for a hundred meters, Sun Jue suddenly felt a move in his heart, and looked towards a shadow not far away. Although he didn't see anyone, he intuitively felt that there was someone there.

[It's dangerous, I was almost exposed. 】

Sun Jue made sure that there was no one there when he was close to this place a few times ago.

[Perhaps there is no one arranged during the day, but specially arranged at night. 】

Sun Jue guessed.

After all, there are guards around here during the day, and any movement will be discovered, so this secret whistle is dispensable.

But it was different at night, the surroundings were pitch-black, and it was inevitable that there would be omissions.

And this study has a place of inheritance, so naturally it cannot be allowed to cause problems.

Sun Jue detoured a bit, approached the dark whistle from the shadows, and then quietly stretched his hands forward from behind the dark whistle, knocking him out.

Sun Jue supported his body and brought him down slowly, so as not to disturb the patrolling guards nearby.

After checking around and making sure that there was no hidden whistle, Sun Jue quietly approached the study.

The study room was not locked, and since there was no one in it, Sun Jue entered easily.

【This journey is safe and sound. 】

Sun Jue breathed a sigh of relief, and then began to explore the study, looking for the painting Guo Hui mentioned.

Soon, Sun Jue found his target.

After lifting the painting, Sun Jue found that there was a wall behind it.

He tapped lightly with his hand, and sure enough, some clues emerged, the wall was actually empty.

Sun Jue groped around, but found no mechanism.

After slightly frowning, Sun Jue stretched out his finger, and then the innate zhenqi stretched out, turning into a blade of zhenqi.

Then cut the wall like cutting paper.

Sun Jue reached out and got a special item.

The thing he held in his hand looked like silk cloth, but the material had a metallic feel.

Sun Jue opened it and saw that it was indeed "Aoki Longevity Technique".

After obtaining the technique, Sun Jue didn't look at it much. After restoring the place as much as possible, Sun Jue stuffed the special silk cloth into his arms, and then came to the door.

After observing by the door for a while, Sun Jue went out from the study room after the patrol team passed by.

The journey went smoothly, and it took Sun Jue less than half an hour to get what he had planned for a long time.

After returning home, Sun Jue couldn't wait to unfold the special silk cloth and began to study the exercises.

"It turns out that the innate true energy of the Cyanwood Longevity Kung Fu combined with the evil spirit of the dead wood, the unity of life and death, and the achievement of the earth's evil environment are indeed a well-intentioned exercise."

"However, this is much worse than my life and death wheel of the heavens. At this time, it can be changed..."

Not long after, Sun Jue opened his eyes, and his breath fluctuated.

"The achievement of the evil land is at this moment!"
