Valkyrie Storm

Chapter 759 Sensation
In the middle of the night, the city lord's mansion was brightly lit and heavily guarded. The old lord had been sitting in the lobby, restless, waiting for news from the ominous bird troops.

He had a slightly ominous premonition, as if he had predicted such a day long ago that he would face the rise of the contracted race again.

Since fate made him reincarnate and awaken again, things would not be suppressed so easily.

He is waiting for the news, and he is also hesitating whether he needs to report the news to the royal family.

Dragon-eating loach, dragon-eating loach, after all, you are still looking forward to the moment when Li Bing returns!
But you are no longer the dragon-eating loach of the past, and he is not the Li Bing of the past. Can this contract continue in this cycle?

After getting the news that the old master had left the customs, more and more generals and city officials came to visit.

The old master has not appeared for many years, and they have reason to come to visit to express their goodwill.

But the old master remained silent and ignored their intentions. Frightened by the oppressive atmosphere in the lobby, the old people who came to visit stayed silently to accompany them, the younger generation all retreated, and the generals hurried back to their respective camps. Summons own troops into a state of martial law.They don't know what the old master is worried about, but they have never seen the old master behave like this in their memory.

The night is like ink, and the ancient city is quiet and peaceful.

The sound of the wind from the direction of the Daxue Mountain is passed here slowly and weakly, bringing a different kind of tranquility, permeating the eaves at the corner of the street.

Somewhere in the inner city less than a kilometer away from the city lord's mansion, there is a landmark building - the lighthouse, which is the watchtower of Agung City overlooking the snow-capped mountains, and it is also the tallest building.

Although it was a time of peace, there were still many troops stationed there. From the bottom to the top of the lighthouse, the number of defenders decreased from a few hundred to a few, but although the number decreased, the strength of the defenders gradually increased.

Sitting at the top of the lighthouse is a venerable man from the City Lord's Mansion.

This is also his retreat.

It's just that during this tense and delicate special period tonight, he actually fell asleep on the bed, sleeping very deeply. Golden butterflies danced around him, covering the whole bed with a layer of golden brilliance.

From a distance, it looks like a sleeping golden butterfly!

This is... the Ecstasy Seal!

In this top stone house where he lived alone all the time, there was a black-haired man in black, leaning against the window, quietly looking at the city lord's mansion a thousand meters away.

It was Tang Yan who quietly left the hotel.

He sat there quietly, his mind was like a wave, slowly infiltrating towards the city lord's mansion, avoiding the strong as much as possible, and also exploring the realm of strength of the strong.

Lips and teeth opened and closed, a small golden scissors jumped happily on the tip of the tongue, splashing out a golden brilliance like electric light, it looked very delicate and charming, like a handicraft, but the sharp aura that diffused made people dare not look directly at it.

According to what I have learned for a long time, there is really a semi-holy old master in the city lord's mansion, and there are two third-order martial arts powerhouses, one is the current city lord Venerable Bone, and the other is the guardian elder of the city mansion. He is an old slave who has served the old master for many years.

Tang Yan was not in a hurry to rush in to investigate. He was waiting, waiting for the return of the [-] ferocious birds and iron army, and was also thinking about countermeasures, how to solve the situation in Shicun satisfactorily.

In fact... the development of the matter was somewhat unexpected. Judging from the [-] ferocious birds flying far away from the snow-capped mountains, it can be seen that the city government's emphasis on the stone village has reached an 'exaggerated' level.

Tang Yan originally wanted to solve this matter easily. After all, after 3000 years, a little deterrence can resolve it, but... thinking back to the [-] fierce birds in the morning, and seeing the brightly lit city hall now, a sense of ominous premonition rose in his heart.

It seems to have broken into a quagmire.

In the city mansion, the old master sat at the head of the lobby, with a flickering candle beside him, illuminating his old face, accompanied by all the old people silently, the atmosphere was oppressive and weird.

The guards outside tried not to make a sound, and also prevented some juniors and maidservants from entering by mistake, for fear of alarming the old master.

Suddenly, the old master raised his eyelids, and his eyes full of vicissitudes were cast into the distance.

A thousand meters away, on the top of the lighthouse, Tang Yan's golden scissors stopped abruptly, and he stared in the direction of the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion through the dark night sky.

The old master got up slowly and walked out of the hall leaning on crutches.

All the old people woke up from their dreams and got up one after another to follow, looking at each other strangely.

The guards outside hurriedly knelt down on one knee and called out to the old master respectfully.

The old master didn't make any special expression, just stood in front of the lobby, looking at the distant sky calmly, his eyes were swept away by the vicissitudes of life, clear as water, bright as light, staring at the distant sky.

The rest of the old people looked at the night sky one after another, but the night was so dark that they couldn't see anything clearly. They searched intently, but found nothing, and felt even more strange in their hearts.

Tang Yan stopped at the window for a while, swallowed the golden scissors on the tip of his tongue, waved away the golden butterfly on the bed, and jumped down the thousand-foot-high tower.

Like a falcon under the night, disappearing in the sky of the dark ancient city.

The Venerable on the bed woke up faintly, wondering why he fell asleep.

The old master in the city mansion continued to look at the tower for a long time, and said calmly, with a hoarse voice: "Go and check."

In the nearby darkness, a hunched old man bowed his head and then disappeared without a sound.

"My lord, what happened?" Everyone was shocked, the old lord actually arranged for the old slave to go out, what's the matter?Check who! !
When Tang Yan returned to the hotel, candles were lit in the yard, the two old men and the little girl Tingting were all there, and there was an extra soldier in ordinary military uniform.

He looks 40 years old, unshaven and a little tired, but still has a gentle smile on his face.

"Eat more, I know you will come back today, I will leave it for you."

"Come on, there is still half a roast chicken. There are guests today, and there is some left over. Tingting is reluctant to eat it, and I will keep it for you."

"Don't worry, don't worry, drink some soup."

The old woman kept picking vegetables for the man and sorting his clothes kindly.

Although it's just some common rice and light vegetables, the man eats very deliciously, swallowing big mouthfuls, the little girl Tingting stands on the stool and stands on tiptoe, humming a ditty, and happily combs his hair while standing behind the man .

The old man was smoking a cigarette, sitting across the table, casually talking to the man about the affairs of the army, the old woman kept nagging, interrupting the old man from time to time, concerned about the man's body, and told him to be careful.

The man is tired but quiet, and reminds his parents to keep warm.

Standing in a dark corner, Tang Yan was suddenly moved by the picture in front of him, moved by the warmth and happiness, moved by the sincere and pure emotion.

He didn't even dare to appear, for fear of breaking this warm scene.

In the lives of ordinary people, there is not so much domineering and gorgeousness, and there are no such schemes and calculations. There are only hardships and hot and sour, but there are also different splendors and warmth.

At noon the next day, the ominous bird troops returned to the ancient city, causing an uproar and making the whole Agung city boil.Because when the [-] ferocious birds left, they were majestic and murderous, and when they came back, they howled all over the field, which was terrible. When the [-] elite soldiers returned, only [-] were left, almost all of them were wounded, and the two venerables who led the soldiers were only One person returned with injuries!
"The monsters in the snow mountain rioted and ambushed the ominous bird troops!"

"A giant white python swallowed the deputy commander alive!"

"Twenty-three thousand elite soldiers died in the Great Snow Mountain!"

"According to reliable sources, the purpose of the 3000 troops entering the snow mountain is to round up the remnants of Shicun, that is, the relics of the saints who rebelled [-] years ago."

"Are they still alive?"

"They survived until now? It's incredible!"

"Why did the ominous bird troops round up the survivors of Shicun? Were they involved in this ambush?"

"Could it be that Shicun has awakened again?"

People talked a lot, and all kinds of conjectures and versions were circulated in the streets and lanes, teahouses and wine shops, and they were constantly relayed with embellishments.

The city lord's mansion shook, and the barracks of various ministries were frequently mobilized.

"Are the old monsters in Snow Mountain crazy? They have lived for hundreds of years or nearly a thousand years. They should all know the prestige of Agung City and our number. How could they kill them for no reason?"

"This time it is definitely a purposeful attack, this is an ambush!"

"Could it be that someone is instigating behind it?"

"Those demon venerables are rebellious and unruly, how could they obey outsiders' orders!"

"Will it be with that mysterious man in black in Shicun?"

The old people in the lobby of the city mansion began to discuss again, and realized the seriousness of the problem. The matter may be more serious than expected.

The old master's face was solemn, even though he was ready, he was still shocked by such a violent change, waved away all the old people, and stayed alone in the lobby to meditate.

Tang Yan continued to wander around the city, learning about the news in the snow mountain.

The worrying things did not happen, and those monsters did a good job.

Corner Inn.

Tingting was carrying a basin of clear water with great difficulty, following her grandma to water the vegetable bed outside the yard, her immature face was flushed, maybe her father came back last night, the little girl was very happy today.

Grandparents start a busy day, hard but warm.

Although the small shop is simple and few people come to live in it, they still take good care of it and make it neat and tidy.

"Grandpa, are you here to stay at the hotel?" Tingting suddenly ran to the front cheerfully, looking at the old man coming from the alley with big bright eyes.

"Hi, do you want to stay at the restaurant or eat?" The old woman hurriedly left the vegetable bed and enthusiastically welcomed the guests into the restaurant.

But... the old man ignored their enthusiasm and looked at the dilapidated shop with cold eyes.

"Grandpa?" Tingting felt that the old man was weird.

The old woman also noticed something was wrong, she quietly pulled Tingting to her side, and asked with a smile: "Guest officer, are you going to stay in the hotel? It's very clean and affordable."

The old man glanced at them, his expression was indifferent, and his voice was even colder: "What is the origin of the man in black who lived in yesterday?"
