Slowly approaching the city wall, the six people felt relieved when they reached a blind spot at the base of the wall. It was impossible for them to go through the main gate, so they could only climb up the city wall.

He took out the flying claws from the storage ring, and while the patrolling soldiers on the wall had just left, he swung them towards the battlements with force. The five flying claws hooked into the gaps in the blue bricks of the battlements. He gently pulled them a few times to make sure that the flying claws were stuck tightly. The other five people, except Zeng Wenyu, immediately climbed up the city wall along the ropes of the flying claws.

The sound of the flying claw stuck on the battlements did not wake up the sleepy guards. They simply did not believe that anyone would come to Zhengxi City to cause trouble tonight, so naturally they did not react to the small sound.

Looking at Hua Nongyu and the others who were already halfway up, Zeng Wenyu's mouth twitched. He didn't have a flying claw, but it was not that he had no way to get up.

He bent his legs slightly and jumped upwards. With just a light leap, he had already reached the halfway point of the city wall. Before falling, he used his hands to grab the gaps in the blue bricks of the city wall to secure his body. Although the gaps in the blue bricks were very small, he still held on tightly with his fingers. Then he used his arms to exert force, and even though he didn't have the flying claws, he climbed up the city wall earlier than the other five people.

He landed gently on the city wall, looked at several soldiers who were sleeping against the battlements, walked over quietly and broke their necks with his hands, and these careless soldiers died in their sleep.

The advantage of killing these soldiers by breaking their necks is that their clothes will not be damaged or stained with blood, and as long as their body shape is similar, they can be put on directly outside. While the other five people have not come up yet, Zeng Wenyu quickly found a few soldiers and broke their necks, then carried them to Hua Nongyu and the others.

"Put it on!"

Zeng Wenyu's voice was very low, but they could all hear it. He stripped the soldiers' clothes off, and several people quickly put the soldiers' clothes on themselves.

Seeing that everyone had changed into soldiers' clothes, the six men walked down the city wall along the stairs at the city gate. There were other soldiers who were awakened by them along the way, but unfortunately, after seeing the armor they were wearing, they leaned against the wall and continued to sleep.

He walked down the city wall, found an abandoned house and took off the half armor on his body. Turning around to look at the five people behind him, Zeng Wenyu immediately saw a scene that made him blush.

Hua Nongyu was fine. She didn't behave strangely after taking off the half armor. However, the four Lan Qianhu standing next to her rubbed their chests with their hands in unison. It seemed that the previous armor didn't fit them well and it caused some pain in their chests. Only Hua Nongyu didn't have this reaction.

"What are you looking at?" Feeling Zeng Wenyu's gaze, Hua Nongyu felt a little uncomfortable. She indeed did not have a good figure like Lan Qianhu and the others, but at least at this time she would not feel uncomfortable because of the ill-fitting armor on her body.

"No, I just want to see if you are ready. We are going to burn down the nobles' houses in the city. Do you have the kerosene and other things ready?"

"Don't worry, we have some of these things in our storage rings. Although it's not a lot, it's enough to burn down a few houses!"

Liang State was different from Dakang State. The entire Liang State implemented a curfew policy. No one dared to go out openly on the streets of Zhengxi City at night. Even the nobles and upper class people could not violate this rule.

Of course, this does not mean that there will be no one there on curfew nights. In fact, if you observe carefully, you will find that in some inconspicuous alleys, those who come out at night to steal or have evil intentions will look for opportunities in these inconspicuous alleys. Of course, there are more of them are some underground organizations of Liang State.

When Zeng Wenyu and his men came down from the city wall, they had already discovered that there were several people following them, but they did not show any malicious intent, so they ignored them. But when they said they were going to burn those nobles, one of those people left immediately. Sensing this situation, Zeng Wenyu winked at Lan Qianhu and the others, and several people left the abandoned house and quickly left towards their respective goals.

About five minutes later, six people returned to the abandoned house, each holding at least one person in their hands, who were the people who had been following them before.

They tied them up and threw them into the house, stuffing their mouths with rags. Zeng Wenyu squatted in front of a man and looked at him for a few times. This man was pale and thin, obviously malnourished, but his eyes were bright and he looked like a man of faith. Of course, it was not just this man, the seven people who were captured had such light in their eyes.

"I'm going to take the cloth out of your mouth and ask you a few questions. Don't yell. Do you understand?" Zeng Wenyu pinched the man's neck with his right hand. "You can yell if you want to. But if you do, I will break your neck. Do you understand? Nod if you understand."

The man whose neck was pinched by Zeng Wenyu nodded. Zeng Wenyu took out the cloth from his mouth. Sure enough, he did not shout: "You are from Kangguo, right? Why did you come to Zhengxicheng?"

"Oh? You asked me before I asked you? But it doesn't matter, I'm a generous person, so I'll answer your question first," Zeng Wenyu said with a smile while pinching the man's neck. "We are here to solve the crisis in Shubian City. Of course, we won't attack you civilians. We just want to cause trouble for the nobles and upper-class people in the city who usually bully you."

"Why should we trust you?"

"We clearly have the ability to kill you, but we only tied you back. Isn't that enough to prove our sincerity?"

"Okay, then just ask any questions you have..."

"Let me ask you, who are the nobles and upper-class people who usually bully you the most? Where are their mansions?"

"Is this the one that oppresses us the most? Ever since the establishment of Zhengxi City, every noble in the city has been oppressing us. They squeeze our lives and constantly force men from every household to join the army. Men in the city even have to break their legs to escape conscription..."

"Is there nothing good for you?"

"How could that be? They are all a bunch of scum. In their eyes, we deserve to be bullied by them. This is something that every city in Liang State would do."
