I have a city that never sleeps

The battle is stalemate.

If it wasn't for the formation that suppressed everyone's level, Jiang Feng wouldn't be so tired of controlling it.

There were several enemies fighting in the four corners, but Jiang Feng only had one vest, which put him in a disadvantaged position. He barely managed to deal with it but failed to break through.

In addition, Jiang Feng himself had to control the defense of the city wall that never sleeps. He was sure not to allow an enemy to break through the defense line. Several layers of pressure piled up together.

The eagle in the sky hovered in search of Prime Minister Zuo's figure, but the man disappeared without a trace as if he had disappeared mysteriously.

At this time of hard work, the safety of the people was the most reassuring point for Jiang Feng.

Most of the people hid inside the Nightless City, and those who have not yet entered the Nightless City are either poisoned and slow-moving, or enemies who are besieging the people.

Since the number of people who need to be protected has decreased a lot, Jiang Feng can relax his vigilance a little bit, let the gangsters automatically meet the enemy, and focus on the formation, wanting to break it quickly.

However, it was his careless thinking that caused irreversible things to happen.

Su Buyi, who was half-hanging up, was awakened by a cry of surprise. Su Buyi, who was guarding the people in the city, immediately raised his head and followed the sound.

When he found that the screams came from the group of people who were poisoned and gathered together, his heart skipped a beat and he had a bad premonition.

But walking forward quickly, he saw his student holding his sister in his arms at a glance. The handsome young man was rolling on the ground in pain at this moment. The sister in his arms accidentally showed a corner. Su Bu doubted The rotten flesh on her face could be clearly seen, and she herself seemed to be in a frenzy, biting her brother's arm desperately, and the blood flowed from the bite.

"Yan'er..." But even though it was quite painful, the elder brother did not give up on her, but hugged her tightly with tears streaming down his face, refusing to let go.

And his blood, which was originally bright red, mutated at this time, and it was dyed a horrible green little by little, and when it flowed to his arm, the intact flesh of his arm would rot instantly.

Su Buyi was startled, and hurriedly said: "Hurry up and let go of the poisoners, their consciousness has gone crazy, and their relatives don't recognize them. After being attacked by them, you will be poisoned too!!"

But his shouts were already powerless, because the family members of the nearby poisoned people were also attacked by their relatives at the same time, and the endless cries spread all over the city that never sleeps. Even if some people ran away in panic, they would be killed. The poisoned person grabs the instinctive bite.

Not to mention that if you touch the poison on their bodies, you will be infected, and there is no cure for the blood that bleeds from your body.

Seeing the people who were infected with toxins everywhere and their consciousness became frantic, Su Buyi's face showed panic and uneasiness for the first time.

At this time, Yijia was developing an antidote. It took him three days to make the toxin last time. No matter how much Jiang Feng concentrated his attention this time, it would take several hours at the fastest.

So—it was too late.

The berserk people lost their targets and walked slowly towards the other common people, only wanting to tear their bodies apart.

Seeing that they were about to break through the line of defense, Su Buyu, who had nowhere to retreat, finally gritted his teeth and became ruthless looking at so many people to protect behind him.

These people are no longer the objects they should protect, so now there is only one way - kill them!

This is the best way to save most of the people.

But even though he has made up his mind, Su still has to face another problem, that is, this place is inside the city that never sleeps, and the defense line outside has no way to attack, and can only resist through the traps and guns that have been set up in various buildings.

Of course, the number of such weapons is not only small, but also has the problem of distance, which makes it difficult to manipulate.

Su Buyi had no choice but to lay out all his weapons and make preparations in advance. Once those enemies stepped into the defense line, they would shoot mercilessly.

Seeing that there were enemies in the city that never sleeps, the people who had just felt relieved showed panic again, and tried to back away.

"Don't be afraid! The Nightless City will definitely protect us!"

Someone loudly appeased the crowd, and when all the arrows pierced the enemy's body, the smiles of the survivors appeared on the faces of the crowd.

But Su Buyi looked at the corner of the Confucian scholar's robe that had fallen to the ground, bloody and bloody, closed his eyes, and fell silently into grief.

All this is because of Prime Minister Zuo, he must find out the traces of Prime Minister Zuo and avenge these innocent people!

The flames of anger could not help burning in Su Buyi's eyes, and Su Buyi clenched his fists tightly, and the figure of the enemy lying on the ground was reflected in his eyes. Every time he saw a person, the anger welling up in his chest would increase by three points.

Occasionally, some escaped fish escaped the hidden arrows and walked towards the people. Some people from the rivers and lakes boldly rushed out and slashed at the enemy's head with a sword. The city that never sleeps is not affected by the formation, and they can use their full strength. The enemy was easily killed with a single blow, which made everyone feel at ease again.

At least they have the ability to protect themselves, so they don't have to be so afraid of these enemies.

"Fortunately, they were all ordinary people, very weak." Someone said happily, "Even I can defeat this level."

Taking pleasure in the crisis has eased people's tension very well. Smiles finally appeared on everyone's faces and encouraged each other.

But will things really go so smoothly?

Suddenly, a sneer echoed from the ear: "Oh? Then you can come and try."

Before the person who spoke had time to react, a hand suddenly appeared on his body. He was shocked to find that his sleeve was being corroded and shriveled, and even his skin was emitting horrible blue smoke.

The young man on the opposite side looked at him with a righteous smile, his eyes were full of madness and joy, and the next moment, he felt severe pain, and couldn't help but shouted out: "Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"

Then everyone turned their eyes in fear, only to see that the man in the middle was wearing the same ordinary clothes as the others, but his outstretched right hand was covered with toxins and was shapeless.

The man he touched was infected with the toxin at an extremely fast speed, and turned into an irrational monster again.

This is? !

enemy! !

Everyone was shocked, and they realized instantly that they were fooled.

It turned out that these enemies didn't need uniform costumes, they mixed in the crowd just for this moment.

Before escaping, many people moved again in the crowd. They were all spies hiding in the crowd, and finally revealed their minions.

They unanimously attacked the surrounding people, and suddenly, the scene became chaotic, and everyone was desperately fleeing to the surroundings, and even panicked, scattered all over the place like headless chickens.

And they don't trust anyone around them anymore, because anyone may be disguised by the enemy, and they may be attacked once they get close.

Even Su Buyi couldn't control this kind of scene, people no longer obeyed his instructions, they were so chaotic that they screamed and couldn't hear his words clearly.

"Hahahahahaha! Run! You run!" The more panicked the people, the more rampant the enemy became. They laughed and jumped up into the sky, playing like an eagle catching a chicken, and for the sake of Appreciate their panic, neither of them attacked.

But they attack nearby buildings from time to time. As long as the people want to escape in, they will destroy the scenes inside and destroy everything that can be seen.

Looking at the messy scene below, Jiang Feng frowned, and guessed that this was Zuoxiang's trump card. He trained some self-aware and good martial arts men, disguised as innocent people and sneaked into the city that never sleeps, and then wiped out everyone in the city .

Obviously his plan was very smooth. Jiang Feng never thought that such enemies existed, or even if he had guessed, he couldn't find these people from the common people, so this road was a dead end from the beginning, and there was no way to solve it.

But even in this unfavorable state, Jiang Feng had to calmly find the only way out to avoid this dead end.

He can only think of gathering people to attack the enemy one by one urgently, and take advantage of this time to let the people hide in a safer room, such as this strong Tongtian Pavilion!

He opened the system interface subconsciously, but was overwhelmed by the system's red warning.

[Warning, warning, the city that never sleeps is being destroyed, integrity -10%]

[Due to the enemy's invasion of the city that never sleeps, the reputation of the city that never sleeps -500]

[System points -10]

[Warning, warning, the city that never sleeps is being destroyed, integrity -5%]

[Reputation -50]

【Points-10】

【Points-10】

……

A trace of astonishment finally appeared on Jiang Feng's face.

He looked at the decreasing points, and panic flashed in his heart.

It can be said that how the people are, how the capital is, and how the vest is actually doesn't have much influence on him. As long as the city that never sleeps is still there, and he is still there, there will be no problem.

But now, when the city that never sleeps was destroyed and points were deducted, Jiang Feng finally felt a sense of crisis.

And what followed was another critical attack on the system:

[When the points are negative, the system will be closed]

In other words...Jiang Feng will no longer own the city that never sleeps, nor will he own everything.

This nearly a year of hard work, the painstaking efforts of the sun and the moon, and his desperate struggle to survive, will be destroyed in an instant...

His heart tightened suddenly, and deep anger appeared in Jiang Feng's eyes.

Absolutely not, he hasn't fulfilled his wish yet, absolutely can't let his hard work disappear!

Jiang Feng stood up abruptly, determined not to let the enemy go on like this.

But before he could do something about it, he was suddenly startled and turned his head in an instant.

I saw a figure slowly walking towards the door of this room.

Even Jiang Feng didn't notice when he approached Tongtian Pavilion, but he stood there calmly, looking at Jiang Feng with a smile.

"The old man finally met City Lord Jiang." He stroked his beard and said casually, "This side is really not easy."

Jiang Feng turned around and turned his head to look at the person who came. He didn't feel the panic of being violated, nor did he see the anger of the enemy. He just looked serious and observed the person: "It's not etiquette to come uninvited. Jiang doesn't welcome the leftist here. "

That's right, the person in front of him is the culprit of everything - Prime Minister Zuo.

Jiang Feng searched outside and couldn't find him, but he didn't know when he sneaked into the city that never sleeps, and even took the initiative to meet him.

Jiang Feng believed that this was the most stupid move of the other party, because Prime Minister Zuo was definitely not his opponent.

"Don't be angry, City Lord Jiang. I just came here to see what kind of character the legendary City Lord Jiang is." Prime Minister Zuo also didn't have any other emotions.

Both of them have a very deep capital, and they conceal all their true thoughts under their calm faces.

"You saw it." Jiang Feng asked with a smile, "What do you think?"

"It's really wonderful." There was still a hint of appreciation hidden in Zuo Xiang's eyes, "Everyone said that the owner of Jiang City does not know how old he is, but he still maintains a youthful state. See, the depth of this inner strength and the ultimate in martial arts amazes the old man, it is definitely not something that can be cultivated at a young age."

"That's why the old man concludes that City Lord Jiang must possess the art of immortality!"

Although this passage is wrong, it is generally correct. After all, people in this world cannot explain the existence of the system and time travel.

But Jiang Feng was puzzled by Zuo's attitude towards him. It was a feeling of fanaticism but not worship, excitement but rationality.

Jiang Feng decided to go straight to the point: "You came here just to tell me this?"

Prime Minister Zuo looked at him fixedly, and said with a smile: "To tell you the truth, the old man has always liked to study this longevity technique, and has always wanted to discuss it with the city lord in person... It's just because of various misunderstandings. None were achieved.”

"So the old man came here to make a deal with the city lord."

Jiang Feng: "Deal?"

"That's right." Prime Minister Zuo said lightly, "If you can tell this old man the law of longevity, I will let the group of people below go, how about it?"

Jiang Feng was surprised. Could it be that Prime Minister Zuo has spent so much effort just to be able to enter the city that never sleeps to meet him and listen to the law of longevity?

...impossible.

I always felt that it was very weird, but Jiang Feng didn't have any ideas. Unfortunately, although Zuo Xiang had a good idea, he didn't know any way to cultivate immortals. He shook his head and said, "Even if I tell you, it's useless to you. My own chance cannot be transferred or copied... How can it be so simple if I want to cultivate immortality?"

I thought Prime Minister Zuo would not believe or be angry after hearing this, but Jiang Feng was already prepared, but Prime Minister Zuo was only disappointed for a moment, then shook his head and said, "What a pity."

He slowly shifted his gaze to the people outside the window, and said lightly: "Then the lives of the people below seem to be in our hands."

This casual sentence contained such a cold killing intent, Jiang Feng couldn't help frowning and asked, "What is your purpose?"

Prime Minister Zuo glanced at him, which contained some approval: "If other people ask this old man, this old man will not tell him the purpose, but since this man is City Lord Jiang, there is no need to hide it."

"There is only one person in this world who can understand the old man, and that person must be you."

Jiang Feng just thought it was ridiculous. If it wasn't for a lot of questions to ask, he would have subdued Prime Minister Zuo long ago. Do you think the two mortal enemies can reconcile?

"Jiang wants to hear what makes you misunderstand me so much." He couldn't help but sneer.

Zuo Xiang stroked his beard, and his memory searched for the distance, but he started to tell the story from a rare book: "...When I was young, my martial arts were superb, and I was so energetic that I thought that there would be no obstacles in front of my martial arts. As I grew older, I discovered that many new stars appeared in the martial arts world, and they were making progress, but I gradually withdrew from the arena."

"At this time, I realized that time is the eternal enemy. I began to look for the secret book of immortality everywhere. After many failures and attempts, I finally found a book called "Seven Demons" in an ancient tomb. "Books, which record magical formations, martial arts, poisons... and how to live forever."

Jiang Feng thought about the book "Seven Evil Spirits", but he couldn't find it in his memory. This should be a plot that only appeared later in the story, and he had never experienced it.

But when he thought of the formations outside, and Zuo Xiang himself's weird inner skills that can absorb people's inner strength, he had the answer: "Is this the reason why your martial arts are strange?"

"Sure enough, it was the little thief you sent yesterday." Prime Minister Zuo glanced at him in surprise, then nodded and said, "This exercise is called Star Absorption Dafa, and when it collides with someone's internal energy, it can absorb other people's internal energy, which is also a way to improve my strength." the most fundamental source of

"When I realized that this exercise could really bring me strength, I made up my mind to develop the method of immortality."

Jiang Feng looked at him coldly: "This is sorcery."

"Then what?" Zuo Xiang said naturally, "People always want to be for themselves."

Jiang Feng sometimes agrees with his ideas, but when he thinks that this sorcery needs to harm the lives of most innocent people, he will restrain his desire.

This is why he is completely different from Zuo Xiang.

Jiang Feng: "This evil method is to cultivate poisonous people, absorb the poison of hundreds of schools, and fight poison with poison, so as to achieve the effect of not collapsing or falling into the body?"

Prime Minister Zuo looked at him in admiration: "That's right, as expected you can understand."

"For this reason, I need more poisons, more violent poisons. According to ancient records, about two thousand poisons are needed to achieve the effect."

"The old man wanted to keep secretly trading refugees to gather the number of people bit by bit, but when the secret was suddenly broken, the old man understood that if I didn't take the initiative to attack one step earlier, I would be the one who lost in the end!"

He looked at the chaotic scene below, and there was no fluctuation in his eyes, "And now it only takes an hour, and I can realize my long-cherished wish. Thank you, City Lord Jiang. If it weren't for you, I'm afraid the old man is still alive." Little by little, gradually accumulating. Therefore, although there are many grievances and grievances between us, in fact, this old man appreciates you very much."

Prime Minister Zuo said slowly: "I don't mean to be hostile to you. If you agree, I can stop doing anything against Nightless City at all. How does City Master Jiang feel?"

His whole body did not contain a trace of murderous aura, and he was more gentle than when he was facing Ji Wuxin. Jiang Feng did not doubt what he said, but he frowned and asked, "Do you want me to ignore the cries for help from these people below?" ?”

Prime Minister Zuo pondered for a long time, then compromised: "2000 people!"

"I can promise you, I only need 2000 people. The rest of the people can stay in the capital safe and sound. The 2000 people who are covered with poison can't be treated anymore. I will take them out of the capital and practice the elixir, and stay away from the court. "

"Well, this is a good deal. If you don't agree, maybe the number of people poisoned will be far more than 2000, and the city that never sleeps will be torn apart and cause huge losses. However, only [-] people need to be handed over to solve the problem. Crisis, let the remaining people live in peace, there is no more cost-effective deal than this, right?"

Prime Minister Zuo said firmly.

He was convinced that his words were very attractive, and it was because of Jiang Feng's face that he decided to smile and disappear from the world.

Smart people know how to choose, and Jiang Feng is of course a smart person.

But Jiang Feng was indeed shaken at this time, his rationality reminded him that what Prime Minister Zuo said was correct.

No matter what you choose, it will inevitably cause casualties, so compared with tens of thousands of households, giving up only two thousand people is the best solution to this problem.

It's like the train problem in the previous life. There are two tracks, two people are tied up on one side, and ten people are tied up on the other side. If you have the ability to save each other, which one will you save?

Jiang Feng was the one who would definitely save ten people.

The most serious situation in the current situation is that there are too many enemies, and it will take a long time to defeat them one by one. He can withstand it, but the points are very dangerous.

When the points are negative, not only will he lose the city that never sleeps, but he will also have no way to improve his physical fitness. Maybe he will drag his sick body through this life for the rest of his life.

Physique is the beginning of Jiang Feng's obsession, and it is also the motivation for him to persist here. Is he really going to give up for the people he has never met before?

Jiang Feng lowered his head silently, the fighting spirit and sensibility in his heart were gradually fading.

Affected by the main body, several vests who were fighting also lost their fighting spirit. The original stalemate balance was broken, and they were accidentally hit by the enemy and suffered some injuries.

Among them, Ye Jianyi's injury was the most serious. Xiao Qing was a difficult enemy. Seeing him in a daze for a moment, he stabbed him with a sword, cutting a hideous gash in Ye Jianyi's chest.

The pain hit suddenly, Ye Jianyi stuck the sword on the ground, covered his chest with one hand, broke out in cold sweat, and couldn't stop breathing rapidly.

He felt that his consciousness was scattered, and he could no longer concentrate on fighting. He didn't even have the obsession to exist here, and he might drift away with the wind at some point.

"Ha, what's the matter! Are you already dead!"

Xiao Qing noticed his strangeness at the first time, and was pleasantly surprised.

Just now, even if Ye Jianyi's strength was suppressed, he didn't get any benefits. This made him more aware of the gap between the two, and the hatred in his heart gradually became stronger.

But now, with Ye Jianyi's retreat, Xiao Qing's eyes burst into a bright light, and a burst of joy gushed out of his chest. He laughed loudly, and once again swung his weapon to stab Ye Jianyi.

Ye Jianyi didn't resist, and was directly scratched by him on the arm. Gu Gu's blood gushed out and landed on the ground glaringly.

Such a scene made Xiao Qing extremely happy, he wished he could step on Ye Jianyi and destroy the face that had humiliated him until now.

"Sure enough, I am the Juggernaut! I am the only Juggernaut!"

He pointed the tip of his sword at Ye Jianyi, and said with a sneer, "As for you, remember, whose hand you died under! You can't beat me, never will!"

After that, his eyes turned cold, and the blade of the sword slashed straight at Ye Jianyi's neck.

Ye Jianyi's intuition did not disappear at this moment, he sensed a strong sense of crisis, and expected something bad in his heart.

But he wanted to resist instinctively, but he felt powerless, and he didn't have the slightest desire to hold the sword. He even felt that such a death was not wrong, so he slowly closed his eyes.

Ding--

However, a clear buzzing sound of weapon exchange suddenly sounded in his ears, which made him come back to his senses in a little surprise.

Looking carefully, someone blocked the attack for him with a sword, and beside him, a familiar figure also supported him, and asked worriedly: "Brother Ye, are you okay, sorry we are late! "

"You..." Ye Jianyi looked at the two in front of him in astonishment.

They were the first friends he knew, Song Ke and Hua Zian.

The two looked at him with a smile, and protected him tightly behind him: "We are here to help you!"

"Brother Ye, heal your injuries with peace of mind, and leave the rest to us!"

"That's right." Just as he was surprised, there were many footsteps nearby, and faces that were either familiar or unfamiliar gradually appeared in front of Ye Jianyi, raised their weapons, and confronted the enemy in unison. "Ye Jianshen, we are here to help!"

"You can't let Ye Jianshen play awe-inspiring all by himself, let us do our part too!"

"Tsk, I feel really uncomfortable in this formation. As long as we defeat them, it will be easy. This is our capital, we can't let people be so presumptuous! Brothers, protect Ye Jianshen, let's go!"

People jumped up and attacked the enemy. No scene could reassure Ye Jianyi more than now, but Ye Jianyi was still at a loss. He didn't understand why he came to help him in the battle that belonged to him.

Until Song Ke smiled and said to him: "Have you seen, Brother Ye, these people are here for you!"

"Hearing the news that you are fighting alone, all martial arts heroes have come to help, and we are also a part of it."

"Brother Ye, you and the city that never sleeps were protecting us in the past. Now, it's time for us to repay you!"

Ye Jianyi stood there in a daze, unable to accept the enormous warmth for a while.

But there are some sour and touching emotions fermenting in my heart, and they remain in my heart for a long time.

On the other side, Chu Zhi and others also received support from everyone.

"Hero Chu! Thank you for saving my brother in the imperial city. Today is the time for me to repay you!"

"Hero Chu, Nightless City saved my life. Now is not the time to be greedy for life and fear death. I'm back to help you!"

"Let me see how powerful the martial arts tempered in the city that never sleeps can be. Brothers, let's go together!"

A sentence of gratitude, one hero after another fighting regardless of their lives, made Chu Zhi's eyes full of bewilderment.

"Hero Chu! You once gave my grandfather 500 taels of silver and saved our family's lives." And when a young boy who was not very old stood in front of him holding a sword with a pale face and trembling shoulders, he The emotion in my heart has reached its peak, "My mother said, even if I sacrifice my life, I will repay you. Standing behind me, I will protect you even if I die!"

"You..." Tears unconsciously blurred his eyes, Chu Zhi gritted his teeth silently as he saw so many people who were obviously average in martial arts but were willing to sacrifice their lives for him.

This is not accidental, nor is it lucky. The other flags also have countless martial arts people to help out, and the bad state is suddenly reversed, and the lifelessness of the entire capital is broken, showing a state of prosperity.

The odds suddenly became incalculable.

Calling one after another, the back of going forward bravely, the heroic posture of guarding...

All of this reflected in Jiang Feng's mind, colored his pale memory, and added warmth to his lonely and boring life.

A single spark is enough to start a prairie fire.

Once you have experienced the existence of light, you will never be able to approach darkness.

A smile unconsciously hung on Jiang Feng's lips, and this time he finally raised his head upright.

Bright stars burst out of his eyes.

Since the people did not give up, how could he give up for them.

His answer is only one, and only one.

If the front is where everyone's heart aspires, then he is willing to protect this tiny light for them even if he has exhausted all his efforts.

He looked to the left, smiled slightly, and raised his robe: "Jiang, I am willing to fight for the living people!"

"Undead, endless!"
