In order to take care of General Su, Yu Xiaoxiao took four days to get to Yanhui City.

At this time, the four gates of Yanhui City were closed, and outside the city were military camps stretching for miles. The merchant caravans that used to flow on the official road were nowhere to be seen. Only baggage and food carts guarded by soldiers passed by on the official road from time to time, with hurried footsteps and rolling wheels, and the atmosphere was solemn and murderous.

Yu Xiaoxiao brought Gu Xinglang to stop in front of the south gate of Yanhui City. She looked up at the tall city wall and said to Gu Xinglang, "My God, this city is so high! It's higher than the city wall of our Fengjing City."

Gu Xinglang was holding General Su at the moment, and he also looked up at the city wall of Yanhui City. The Fengtian army was unable to reach the city gate of Zhuri, so this was the first time that Gu Xinglang saw Yanhui City, known as the first gate of Zhuri, with his own eyes.

Yu Xiao: "The walls of this city are thicker than those of Wangxiang Pass."

Gu Xinglang said: "The moat is also deeper than that of Wangxiang Pass."

Yu Xiaoxiao smacked her lips and said, "So nothing we have there can compare to Jing Mo's country."

Out of professional habit, after looking at the moat, Young Master Gu looked at the defenses on the tower again and casually asked Yu Xiaoxiao, "So what do you want to do?"

Yu Xiao: "What do you think we should tear down Wangxiang Pass and Fengjing City and rebuild them?"

Young Master Gu...

The young couple stood by the moat as if no one was around, which scared the soldiers guarding the city on the city wall. It was as if the two of them had fallen from the sky or crawled out of the ground. They had been looking at the city below with their eyes open and did not see how the two of them appeared.

The general guarding the city was stunned for a moment, and waited for Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang for a while, wanting them to introduce themselves and see whether they were enemies or friends. As a result, the general waited for a long time, and Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang were looking at the scenery and whispering to each other under the city, and they didn't pay any attention to them at all!

"Who is under the city?!" the general had no choice but to shout loudly.

Gu Xinglang wanted to speak, but Yu Xiaoxiao pulled Gu Xinglang's arm and looked at the moat with a frown.

Gu Xinglang knew that his wife would not do this for no reason, so he quickly lowered his head to look at the moat.

The officers and soldiers on the city wall all looked sideways at their general. Their general was a great general after all. How many years had it been since he was ignored like this?

The water in the moat was very turbid, and ripples appeared from time to time in the wind, looking like huge waves crashing against the shore.

"What's wrong?" Gu Xinglang didn't see anything wrong.

Yu Xiao: "There's something in the water."

Gu Xinglang asked hurriedly: "Where is it?"

Yu Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and said, "A lot."

Gu Xinglang subconsciously hugged General Su tightly. Nothing could happen to him.

"Who are you?!" General Wang Zhao asked angrily.

"Shut up!" Yu Xiaoxiao also shouted at General Wang harshly.

General Wang...

"Do you want to shoot arrows?" a deputy general asked his general who was yelled at by a little girl to shut up.

Yu Xiaoxiao muttered to Gu Xinglang at this moment: "Mo Wen is not here."

Gu Xinglang said: "What's in the water? Medicine man?"

"Monster," Yu Xiao said, "maybe there's also a medicine man? To find out, I have to go down to the water and take a look."

Gu Xinglang hurriedly said: "Don't go into the water, just die like this."

"I thought so too," Yu Xiaoxiao nodded, "This world of water, it's not like I have a hole in my head."

"If you don't tell me your name, I will order my men to shoot arrows!" General Wang shouted on the city wall.

Yu Xiaoxiao and Gu Xinglang looked at the city wall together, an action similar to rolling their eyes.

"Let him be. He can't kill us with arrows." Yu Xiaoxiao clenched her fist and said to Gu Xinglang, "Xiao Gu, step back. I'll kill the monster first."

Gu Xinglang held General Su and retreated.

The creature lurking in the moat may have sensed something. A black and gray creature that looked like a big lizard with a head that looked like a human suddenly jumped out of the river that was twenty or thirty meters deep and clung to the city wall.

When someone on the city wall saw the monster clearly, he screamed.

"Shoot!" Gu Xinglang shouted to the top of the city wall. People know to shoot arrows when they see people, but now they see a monster, why don't they know to shoot arrows?

Human-headed lizards jumped out of the moat one after another, making huge splashes of water. In a moment, one of the city walls was almost covered with these monsters.

Arrows flew like locusts from the city walls, and the archers went crazy, shooting their largest eagle feather arrows at the monsters.

Yu Xiaoxiao, who originally wanted to take action, stood by and watched, standing with Gu Xinglang and looking up at the city wall.

After watching for a while, Gu Xinglang shook his head and said, "Arrows can't kill them."

Yu Xiao: "There's still a lot in the water."

Gu Xinglang watched as a monster opened its mouth and bit a rock that hit its head into pieces.

"set fire!"

A general on the city wall shouted to set fire.

The soldiers poured kerosene down from the city wall and shot rockets, and the city wall was suddenly ablaze with fire.

"It's useless?" Gu Xinglang muttered to himself when he saw these monsters were on fire but still climbing up the city wall.

"This fire can't kill them instantly," Yu Xiao said, "These deadly things seem to be more difficult to deal with than the medicine man."

The commotion here on the tower must have been known to the military camp outside the city. A group of soldiers and horses had arrived at the foot of the city. The general and the cavalry were all stunned when they saw the scene before them. This scene was beyond their common sense, and the officers and soldiers who rushed out to support them suspected that they were dreaming.

A monster with fire all over its body gave up climbing and jumped directly onto the city wall.

More than a dozen spearmen on the city wall thrust out their spears at the same time and put the monster on the tip of the spear.

"Throw it down," a captain shouted to the spearmen, knife in hand.

The spearmen worked together and threw the monster into the moat below the city.

"What is this?!" an archer shouted while shooting arrows at the city wall.

The monsters clinging to the city wall now jumped onto the tower.

"Spearmen!" Many generals on the tower shouted, their voices sounding hysterical.

Several personal soldiers wanted to escort Wang Zhao down the city, but Wang Zhao kicked them away one by one. General Wang held his halberd horizontally in his hand. If he retreated from the tower at this time, how could he have the face to lead the three armies in the future? I'm afraid that His Majesty, who is in the city, can't avoid him.

"Xiao Gu, over there," Yu Xiaoxiao was standing by the moat at this time, and suddenly pointed to a piece of snow and asked Gu Xinglang to look at it.

Gu Xinglang looked at the snow.

"Shoot!" The general who led the troops to support came to his senses and gave the order loudly.

Yu Xiaoxiao raised her hand back and said, "Stand still, don't move."

The officers and soldiers didn't recognize Yu Xiaoxiao, but they all stopped what they were doing.

Yu Xiaoxiao waved his palm towards the city wall in front of him.

The people on the city wall heard a hissing sound. Before they could figure out what was happening, a heat wave swept towards them. Although it was winter, the officers and soldiers felt the unbearable heat of the dog days of summer.
