Starting from the wind and clouds, piercing through the heavens

Chapter 44
"City Master, the Clay Bodhisattva has arrived."

In the City Lord's Mansion, Liu Ming had just finished training when he heard a piece of news that made him happy.

"Wait for me in the main hall."

Liu Ming cleaned up and tidied up, only to feel that time flies, and two days passed in a blink of an eye.

Liu Ming has not been idle for the past two days. Apart from going to Qinxiangyuan to read information, Liu Ming is completely absorbed in practicing swordsmanship.

In addition to chopping and stabbing, he has mastered the cloud sword and blocking sword in the past two days.

Yunjian is a technique for trapping the enemy and unloading force, while Blocking Sword is more for defense.In battle, Ye San, a second-rate fighter, can be disarmed by Liu Ming with the cloud sword as soon as he makes a move.

The master is lonely.

"Two days have passed, and there is still no movement from the Ming family and Wushuang City."

In the past two days, Liu Ming had arranged for Ye Sanga to investigate the south and west sides, but there was no movement for a long time.

Liu Ming's eyes were deep. He knew that the fake city lord was stupid, but he didn't expect to be so stupid.

"The identity of the fake city lord has yet to be investigated. If he really supports the Ming family, this Wushuang city will become a dead game."

Liu Ming shook his head, put aside his worries, and came to the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion.

In the main hall, Ni Bodhisattva waited here with his granddaughter Xiaoyuan for a long time. After these few days of peace and stability, his complexion has improved a lot, and Xiaoyuan's face has also become much rosier.

"Young City Lord."

When he saw Liu Ming, he took the initiative to say hello.

That night, the mud bodhisattva felt that there was a change in the way of heaven, and calculated that there was going to be a great chaos, and the previous saviors had also changed, but the mud bodhisattva couldn't figure out who the present savior was.

Seeing Liu Ming today, he instantly felt a faint sense of luck condensed on Liu Ming.

The mud bodhisattva was shocked in his heart, and at the same time solved the previous doubts.

In all likelihood, Liu Ming is one of the saviors.

"Nud Bodhisattva looks pretty good. Mei Youqian didn't treat you badly in Beijiang City these days, right?"

Liu Ming said with a smile that the intelligence organization and killer organization that he wants to cultivate next will need the participation of the mud bodhisattva.

He is equivalent to Liu Ming's first guest official,
Liu Ming will naturally treat each other with courtesy.

"City Master Mei treats you wholeheartedly, how can you say that you treat him badly?"

Liu Ming nodded with a smile, stopped exchanging pleasantries, and began to get down to business.

He pushed back the people around him, but left Ye San behind.

"Ye San, I asked you to select a hundred young people with good talents, how is it going?"

"Back to the city lord, I have already selected from house to house in Dongshi City, let alone a hundred, there are three hundred."

For Liu Ming's arrangement, Ye San was still very conscientious in completing it.

Liu Ming nodded in satisfaction.
"Who is this, I don't need to introduce too much to you, three hundred are too many, I only want one hundred, and let them learn the art of disguise with the clay bodhisattva during the day."

This idea came to Liu Ming's mind when he first came into contact with the Clay Bodhisattva.

This disguise technique is comparable to cheating, especially for assassination and spying, it is no different from a magic skill.

And the clay bodhisattva's disguise technique is even more unrivaled in the past and present. If not, he would not be able to escape the carpet-like searches of the world all these years.

"Follow the order." Ye San took the order without asking any further questions.

"In the future, I will trouble the Clay Bodhisattva."

"Where is it, the young master provides me with food and lodging, and gives me and Xiaoyuan a stable life. I can feel at ease if I can do something for the young master."

Ni Bodhisattva touched Xiaoyuan's head and said sincerely.

"The Nine Heavens Dragon's Song is shocking, and the wind and clouds are brilliant and diving."

After explaining the matter, Liu Ming changed the subject and suddenly recited a poem.

Ye San didn't know why, but falling into the ears of the mud bodhisattva set off a storm in the latter's heart.

"I don't know where the young master learned about the second half of the poem?"

The mud bodhisattva hurriedly asked, but Liu Ming smiled lightly,
"The decisive battle between the Sword Master and Xiongba is imminent. It is only a matter of time before Wushuang City and the world will fight. Ni Bodhisattva, what effect do you think the second half of the poem will have if it falls into Xiongba's ears?"

The mud bodhisattva was silent for a while, but he knew in his heart that with his domineering and suspicious character, even if he didn't open the box, he would still listen to the slanderous rumors of the world, and regard Nie Feng and Bu Jingyun as thorns in his eyes.

"Nud Bodhisattva should be very familiar with Beijiang's organization."

The mud bodhisattva nodded.

"From now on, the Beijiang stronghold in Dongshi City will be taken care of by the Ni Bodhisattva. As for the second half of the poem, I want Xiongba to know. It shouldn't be difficult, right?"

"It's not difficult."

The mud bodhisattva answered frankly.

Liu Ming smiled when he heard the words,
"Then there is Lao Ni Bodhisattva."

……

"'Northern River' has been handed over to Ni Bodhisattva. From now on, I only need to concentrate on watching the city defense."

After the mud bodhisattva left, Liu Ming sat in the hall for a while.

"The Ming family has remained silent until now, this is absolutely abnormal."

After Ye San counted the war preparations stored in Dongshi City, Liu Ming knew how important Dongshi City was to the Ming family.

To put it simply, if there is no East Rock City, the staying power of the Ming family will be at least three months less!
This is only Liu Ming's conservative estimate. If the reserves of the remaining cities are not very sufficient, then the strategic position of Dongshi City will be even higher.

"It's impossible for the Ming family to not take action..."

Liu Ming firmly believed in this, and thought about it carefully, how did the defenders observe the movement?It's nothing more than what you can see.

But in this way, it is easy for people to take advantage of the gap at night, which is why many wars take place at night.

Actions at night are not easy to be noticed, and if the Ming family deliberately does not let themselves know, and chooses to travel at night, wouldn't it be...

Liu Ming suddenly realized,

"Ye San!"

"I'm humble."

"Strengthen the night patrol outside the city, three people on one post, and go deep into the forest outside the city to patrol every quarter of an hour. If no one comes back after half an hour, they will immediately enter a state of alert!"

Liu Ming turned pale, got up and walked out of the hall,

"You stay in the city. If there is something to warn, arrange another [-] light cavalry to follow me out of the city and look north!"

Da da da, the horse's hooves made regular sounds on the mountain road, and dust and smoke rose everywhere.

After leaving Dongshi City, head north, and soon entered the deep forest.

The climate is humid, and there are often insects and snakes in the forest. Except for the burrows that have been expanded, there is almost no place for human beings.

This saved Liu Ming a lot of trouble. He led the team to go deep, and after about a quarter of an hour, he stopped, looked at a depression ahead, and narrowed his eyes with a murderous look.

"Sure enough."

In the hollow, it was densely packed with human figures!

The members of the Ming family really traveled at night and rested during the day, which undoubtedly made the journey more difficult, so after four or five days, they still did not reach East Stone City.

Fortunately, Liu Ming noticed it early. This place is very close to Dongshi City. This group of people is expected to arrive tonight and launch an attack in the early morning.

Instantly, he was caught off guard.

"City Master, what should we do?"

The cavalrymen behind were also taken aback. If Liu Ming hadn't had the foresight, even tonight, they might have become dead souls under the knife.

Liu Ming looked at the figure in the depression, and said coldly,
"Let Ye San call the Bow and Arrow Camp over."
