Biquge www.mtlnovel.com, the fastest update of the latest chapter of Changan Twelve Hours (Complete Collection)!

Whether it’s watching lively people, entertainers on lamp-pulling cars, or officials, patriarchs, and embassies standing on the edge of the terrace, they all shut their mouths in unison, waiting for the birth of a prosperous world.

Tianbao three years on January 15th, ugly.

Changan, southeast corner of Xingqing Palace Square.

Yuan Zai is a rational person. He believes that all things can be divided into two categories: those that can be enjoyed and those that cannot. The meaning of life lies in constantly transforming the latter into the former.

Therefore, he still could not understand how the ordinary people in Chang’an City would be excited to look like this for a red chip that they would never be entitled to enjoy. Yuan Zai calmly looked at the extreme crowd in the far square, and the mad faces of the foolish gangsters made him feel sad.

A low rumbling sound suddenly came from the top of the head, Yuan Zai raised his head and saw that Taishang Xuanyuan Lamp Building finally woke up. Its body first shook a few times, making a jerky rubbing and squeezing sound, and then several external rotating rods began to move. Twenty-four lamp houses began to revolve slowly around the core of the lamp house.

Now, the red chip is going to the Xingqing Palace. The cumbersome security measures can’t be omitted. It may take some time. Therefore, although the lamp tower was open, the candle was not burned yet. The giant shadow of the black building was reflected in the torch of the Xingqing Palace Square. It was not like the true repair of the fairy family.

“A lamphouse of this size must cost a lot of money?” Yuan Zai stared at the lamphouse and sighed.

Suddenly, his eyes flashed. I saw a figure and something rushing out of the lamphouse, breaking through the skin, drawing an arc in the air, swinging limbs weakly a few times, and then falling heavily to the ground, just not far from Yuan Zai.

The accident happened!

Others have not responded yet, but Yuan Zai has been waiting for a long time. His eyes lighted up, and he rushed over in three and two steps, seeing the man lying on the ground with his limbs twisted and blood flowing from the back of his head. He quickly rushed over to support the other party, first observed the appearance, and found it was a rickety old man.

The old man’s consciousness was no longer clear, and he raised his trembling hand: “Kirin arm … explosion … turning … Tianshu.” Then his head shook, and there was no sound. Yuan Zai was so confused that he reached over and tried to hold the old man’s neck, and found that there was a long and narrow blood mark on his neck.

This man had his throat cut before falling out.

At this time, the soldiers of the brigade army also picked up the things that fell out. Yuan Zai looked at it, and it was a long bamboo tube with a special shape. It shook, and there seemed to be sound of water in it. He pulled the plug of the bamboo tube, and the sticky black liquid came out.

“This is fierce fire and thunder!” Some soldiers exclaimed, he was involved in the containment of the Turkic Wolf Guard before, and he was afraid of this thing.

Yuan Zai was so shocked that he threw it away. He read the report, and a barrel of fiery fire mine made of Yanzhou stone resin can level up a small square. If this thing is blown up in your hand, how can you get it?

At this time, Long Wujun was also alarmed. Wu Chang of the checkpoint brought a few people to ask what happened here. Yuan Zai showed his Jingan Secretary’s waist card and said that we were investigating a case and it happened that this man and this thing had fallen out of the lamphouse, and the murderer was still inside.

Wu Chang glanced at the old man’s body and was shocked: “Isn’t this Master Mao Shunmao?”

“Who is that?”

“Most of the lamp houses are expected.”

As soon as Yuan Zai listened to this post, his mind turned quickly, and he quickly thought through. He grabbed the Long Wujun Wu Chang, with a serious tone: “I’m afraid that an adulterer sneaked into the Xuanyuan Lantern Tower with the intention of destroying it. You see, this Qilin arm is filled with fierce fire and thunder. Once it detonates, the Lantern Tower will be destroyed. Master Mao is afraid Can’t stop it, was thrown out of the building by the earthworm. ”

The amount of information in this passage was slightly larger, and I heard that Wu Chang was a little overwhelmed and hurriedly told me to report to the summit.

“It’s too late!” Yuan Zai drank, “Master Mao has been traumatized by poisonous hands, and the cricket must be ready to start in the building.”

Wu Chang is accustomed to obeying orders, but lacks resilience to such emergencies. Yuan Zai said: “It was this case that our Jing’an Division pursued. It also brought enough manpower. Now the person who called you, let’s enter the building immediately!”

“However, this is out of order …”

“When the Xuanyuan headlight building is destroyed, you are the first to be beheaded!” Yuan Zai threatened. Wu Chang’s face was scared, and the adulterer entered the building. His guard could not escape his responsibility anyway. With Yuan Zai’s persuasion, Wu Chang had to call his colleagues to move away from the thorn wall.

Yuan Zai’s head was divided into two parts at this time. One piece was desperately integrating the information currently received in an attempt to restore the panoramic view of the attack plan; the other part was calculating quickly, how much benefit this time can get.

To stop the conspiracy of the earthworm to destroy the lamp tower, if this matter is done, it can go directly to heaven to listen, but it is a rare achievement! Moreover, calling this little dragon martial arts commander, not only will not be given credit, but can be used as a shield and a scapegoat when necessary.

Yuan Zai’s plan has been decided, and the spirit has been shaken. The Longwu Army and the Brigade Army each had a dozen or so soldiers, rushing towards Xuanguan under the lamp tower.

Tonight, it is destined to be a night of great success for me!

Zhang Xiaojing and the two guards returned to the main hall again. At this time, there was no one in the hall, Zhang Xiaojing said: “I guess Mao Shun has climbed up. It is too dangerous to go up now.

The two looked at each other and said in unison: “We are instructed to protect you, how can we give up halfway?”

“Okay, then you keep up.”

Zhang Xiaojing did not talk nonsense, and climbed up the stairs quickly, followed by two guards. On the steep narrow stairs, the three climbed up and down in a row. This level is the Lingguan Pavilion where Li Bi is being held. Zhang Xiaojing first climbed the stairs, and the two of them were still climbing down. He turned back suddenly, pulled out his crossbow, and snapped the last one of the two shots, then again in a row, and then shot the guard behind him.

This sequence is very important. If the person behind is shot first, it is likely that he fell and became the last person’s flesh shield.

The two rounds and four shots almost finished in an instant, and the two unexpected guards screamed and fell to the bottom of the stairs. Zhang Xiaojing is aiming at the top of their heads, so close that they can fully shoot through. Even if they are not lucky, they will never get up again.

“I’m sorry …” Zhang Xiaojing’s one-eyed eyes are full of sadness, he filled the last four crossbow arrows, turned around and quickly climbed from Lingguan Pavilion towards Ding Pavilion. He felt the floor trembling under his feet, and the entire Xuanyuan Light Tower was already officially in operation, and the power to move it was really spectacular.

The explosion in the top cabinet was delayed, and Zhang Xiaojing was worried that Mao Shun would repent temporarily. The **** craftsman hesitated at both ends of his head, and it was really uneasy not to stare.

Now he finally managed to win the best situation. Xiao Gui has gone to the hydraulic palace to perform other tasks. The two guards were also killed, and no one was tied. As long as he rushed to the top pavilion and forced Mao Shun to detonate the unicorn arm, he should still have time to withdraw.

Soon he reached the top cabinet, kicked the door open, and found that there was no one inside, only the machine was clicking. Mao Shun was not there, nor was Meng Huo Lei.

Zhang Xiaojing was cold all at once, where could this go? He turned around and walked out of the pavilion quickly, looking up at the Xuanyuan Lamp Tower above him. The inside of the lamp building that has not burned candles is like a giant beast with a mouth full of fangs of all sizes.

His feet seemed to step on something. When he lowered his head, he found flint and moxa, and a trace of blood. It seems that Mao Shun was not willing, but was dragged out of the cabinet.

“Fish intestines!” Zhang Xiaojing squeezed out two words from his mouth.

The only person who can do this is the fish intestines! He was provoking Zhang Xiaojing, forcing Zhang Xiaojing to fight him.

Zhang Xiaojing looked back and saw a line drawn by Mao Shun with talc next to the transfer, which was the detonated position of the calibration. That is to say, even if Mao Shun is not present, Zhang Xiaojing can operate by himself.

But the Kirin arm was not there, it was probably taken away by the fish intestines.

Looking at the turning point that slowly drives Tianshu to rotate, Zhang Xiaojing desperately calms himself down. He suddenly remembered that there should be a few left in the row of small tripods next to the Xuanguan Hall. Mao Shun had taken it from there before. When Xiao Gui evacuated, he didn’t take it all away. Now he returns, and he should still be there!

Zhang Xiaojing left the pavilion, followed the stairs just now, and returned to the main hall. The two guards collapsed at the bottom of the stairs, Zhang Xiaojing couldn’t take care of them to check their life and death, strode the meteor to the rear of the hall. The fires of the six small tripods have been extinguished, but in some of the tripods, there are also a few unicorn arms.

Zhang Xiaojing picked out one, carried it on his shoulders, and ran back to the main hall from the back of the hall. He was about to climb the stairs. Hearing the “boom” at the door of Xuanguan, the door was forcibly opened, and the soldiers of Longwu Army and Brigade Army rushed in.

Since Yuan Zai suffered from Zhang Xiaojing’s losses, he never dared to take the lead, so the leader of the Longwu Army was the leader of the army. When he saw Zhang Xiaojing carrying Qilin’s arm up, he shouted, “Take away the traitor!” He rushed straight forward.

Zhang Xiaojing groaned secretly, and his current behavior could not cause misunderstanding. But time is pressing and he is not allowed to explain. He took out the crossbow and shot forward, hitting Wu’s thigh. Zhang Xiaojing shot three arrows in a row, knocking down three people respectively, forcing Pioneer to stop. He took the opportunity to rush towards the stairs.

“Quick! Archery!” Yuan Zai shouted angrily outside the door.

The soldiers who woke up like dreams raised their wrists, and countless flying crossbows were nailed to the wall on this side like a migratory locust. Fortunately, Zhang Xiaojing climbed the stairs a step earlier, avoiding the arrow rain, crossed the Lingguan Pavilion, and returned to the top pavilion again.

He quickly put the unicorn arm to the line drawing position, struck out the fire twist, and hit the flint violently. The officers and soldiers outside had quickly arrived, and the footsteps on the stairs were louder than the cheers outside. Zhang Xiaojing felt that the fate thing was really wonderful, but he didn’t expect to be surrounded by him here, but he was actually an officer in the same camp.

But it ’s no wonder that anyone who sees a wanted criminal holding a fiery fire thunder and wants to explode a lighthouse, will they all think that it is doing damage? To explain to them the fact that the bombing is actually saving people, we must talk calmly. Zhang Xiaojing does not expect those people to give himself this opportunity.

In any case, you must stick to the unicorn arm explosion!

Zhang Xiaojing frowned, listening to the footsteps getting closer and closer, his wrist suddenly fluttered, the fire sickle drew a dazzling spark, and it was directly splashed on the fire twist, and the fire twist began to sizzle.

Li Mi traversed the cold water for a long time, and finally reached the exit of the passage. There are four dragon scale water column standing upright. The column is covered with layers of scales, but one of the columns has been disconnected, and it is obviously filed.

Maybe Zhang Xiaojing sneaked in from here, Li Bi thought. He dragged his wet body sideways through the water diversion column, grabbed the grass on the dike, and climbed ashore. At this time, his hair bun had been completely dispersed, and his face was very bad, and there was no trace of blood in the cold water.

He couldn’t breathe, looked up and looked around, guessing that he should be somewhere in Taoist Square.

This is a good judgment, because the violent cheers and drums came from the north, and the huge Xuanyuan lamp tower also started to run. Li Mi simply tossed her hair with her hand, brushed away the water droplets on her face, and ran to many places, deep and shallow, and he knew that there was not much time left for himself.

If he guessed well, the Cricket was planning to invade Xingqing Palace and arrived at Ouchi!

The underground water channel that Mao Shun dug in the Daozhengfang canal flows into the Denlou from south to north, and there is bound to have a northward drain-the nearest place is the Longchi in Xingqing Palace.

Longchi is located in the palace garden on the south side of Xingqing Palace. The water is deep and wide, and you can take a boat to draw a boat. There are lotus leaves in the pond, and peonies and willow trees are planted around the pond. Many buildings in the palace, such as the Dragon Pavilion, Agarwood Pavilion, Cahui Xianghui Building, and Qinzheng Affairs Building, etc., all rise by the pool and are known as four seasons and four sceneries. .

The water in the Longshou Canal of Daozheng Square flows into the Denglou Canal and then discharges into the Longchi. It virtually forms a tunnel that avoids the guards of the Forbidden Army and sneaks into the Xingqing Palace. As soon as the light tower exploded, dozens of squares were eroded around. Cockroaches can take the opportunity to swagger into the Longchi, burst into the Xingqing Palace, and launch a second round of attacks against the imperial family, high officials and even the emperor himself-so they must prepare for the water.

If the plan of the Centipede is successful, this Shangyuan Festival will be the most shameful day in the history of Datang.

He stumbled along the channel for a while, and finally saw the shadow in front of him, and several Fang Bing were standing there chatting. They were responsible for guarding Longshouqu, but the lights were turned off immediately, and they were all busy looking at the long neck.

Li Bi rushed over and shouted loudly. The Fang soldiers were shocked when they saw a black shadow radiating from their beard suddenly jump out of the ditch, and picked up spears and sticks one after another.

Li Bi showed the bronze medal Zhang Xiaojing had left and said that I was Jing An Si Cheng, and immediately took me to the Long Wujun. The Fang soldiers were a little surprised by this accident, and finally a veteran took the bronze medal and saw Li Mixi’s tender skin and hands, without cocoon in his hands. This is correct.

Soon Li Bi contacted the Longwu Army who was defending at the gate of Daozhengfang. They were all surprised when they heard that the Jing’an Secretary was missing. Li Bi said that you must immediately take measures to evacuate the crowds of people watching the lanterns in Xingqing Palace and the square.

The officers of the Long Wujun said in embarrassment that this was impossible. Now 50,000 people are crowded in the square, unable to move, and the Longwu Army is stationed everywhere, and there is no way to assemble. If the evacuation was forced at this time, the people would be seriously injured if they trample on each other.

Li Bi also knew that these low-ranking officers had no way to conquer, so they said they would take me to see General Chen Xuanli and Chen immediately. Seeing that Li Bi was aggressive, the officer did not dare to neglect and quickly prepared a horse. Long Wujun had his own temporary passage, and Li Bi drove along the passage, bypassed the impenetrable square, and ran to the southwest corner of Xingqing Palace in one breath.

At this time, Chen Xuanli, as the head coach of the army, was sitting in front of the Jinming Gate.

There are three gates in the south of Xingqing Palace, Jinming Gate in the southwest, Yangyang Gate in the south, and Chuyang Gate in the southeast. The location of the Qinzheng government building directly opposite the square is the Tongyang Gate. The red chip will be under the eyes of all people, go through this door and climb up to the platform, thank the emperor and thank the many fans of the square. It mainly assumes the role of etiquette.

The Jinming Gate near the southwest is a functional passage. Many materials and personnel of the Shangyuan banquet, the drunken officials Guizhou, Chuanhe Hefei, the singer and dancer bands of Liyuan, etc., all entered and exited Xingqing Palace through this gate.

So for security, the most critical node is at Jinming Gate, not Tongyang Gate. It is no wonder that Chen Xuanli sat in person.

Li Bi speeded to the Jinming Gate, and had seen Chen Xuanli in a bright light armor, standing majesticly on the enemy’s tower on top of the gate. He turned his head to look at the more majestic Xuanyuan Denglou. Although it turned, the upstairs was still dark. The candle was not burning yet, and there was still a little time left.

“General Chen, Jing’an Emergency Report!”

Li Bi was riding on the horse and shouted, but soon he seemed to be suddenly caught in the neck and dumb. The crotch mount felt his master yank the reins, and hissed unwillingly.

He widened his eyes and saw the heavy door of Jinming Gate half open, and a luxurious Siwang car hurried out from inside. The Siwang car was supposed to be pulled by a horse, but only two horses were pulled on the cowl, and the flag was not inserted at the rear of the car. If it was seen by the royals, it would have to criticize the sentence “There is a code of misconduct.”

Li Mi recognized it at a glance, it was the prince’s car, and the prince himself was in the car. He had traveled with the prince more than once, knowing that Li Heng was afraid of getting sullen in the car. Every time he took a car, he would pull the side window by a third and habitually put his hand on the mullion.

At that time, on the right side window of the carriage, the graceful and wealthy hand was riding. Lightly tapped on the finger, it seemed that the owner was a little uneasy.
