Distant Mountain Battle Song

Chapter 277 Cracking such a simple password is not difficult

The arm shield on He Tian's armor was smashed open by the hammer, and the two arms, which were crossed in a cross shape, bent backward in a strange posture when they were slightly touched by the hammer.

He Tian, ​​who was kicked away, rolled on the ground repeatedly. Yun Ce's meteor hammer followed him closely, smashing the bluestone slabs and shattering them. Even so, He Tian's will to live was still strong. Even though he could only use his two legs, his cheeks were still bulging and trembling violently.

This was exactly the result Yun Ce wanted. If he hadn't been anxiously summoning the Tiger Legion, Yun Ce would have kicked him to death the moment he smashed his arm with a hammer.

The Tiger Legion, which had been standing like wooden stakes in the courtyard, finally moved. And once they started moving, they attacked everyone in the courtyard indiscriminately with overwhelming force.

Of course, He Tian is an exception.

When the two horse-slaying swords came slashing down, Yun Ce had no choice but to temporarily release He Tian and engage in an extremely fierce battle with the two Tiger Warriors.

Chu Xiong and his men were different. Seeing them kill the Tiger Legion soldiers who were fighting against them, Yun Ce felt a pang of pain in his heart. Sure enough, only when something is yours can you feel pain when it is destroyed by others.

Just as Chu Xiong was about to use the stolen horse-slaying saber to kill the Tiger Legion soldier opposite him, Yun Ce's meteor hammer flew over at that moment, knocking Chu Xiong's horse-slaying saber away and helping the crazed Tiger Legion heavy armor soldier to cut open his armor with the horse-slaying saber.

Just as Chu Xiong was about to yell and curse, he realized that Bai Chengfeng was already in danger. Not only were three Tiger Legion soldiers attacking him, but Liu Zhengchun and that guy Hu Tong were also attacking him.

Seeing that He Tian, ​​who had just escaped danger, was behaving strangely by puffing out his cheeks, Chu Xiong naturally disregarded Bai Chengfeng's safety, bypassed the fighting in front of him, and slashed at He Tian with his saber.

The Tiger Legion surged into the courtyard in an endless stream. They seemed to have no brains. In a short while, the courtyard was packed with Tiger Legion soldiers. More Tiger Legion soldiers were jumping into the courtyard from the gate, the courtyard wall, and even the roof. It was clear that He Tian was completely surrounded by the Tiger Legion.

Yun Ce shouted first and jumped over the wall to run away. Chu Xiong brandished his sword to force back the Tiger Legion soldiers who surrounded him. He glanced at He Tian, ​​who was still frantically puffing out his cheeks, and knew that it was impossible to get the whistle today. He cried out in frustration and also jumped over the wall.

He had barely leaped over the wall, his feet not yet touching the ground, when a massive meteor hammer was already at his chest. Chu Xiong was shocked and tried to dodge by bracing himself against the wall, but it was too late. The meteor hammer struck his chest, instantly collapsing his sternum.

He wanted to curse Bai Chengfeng for her shamelessness, but then he saw a gleaming white iron spike shove into his mouth...

Yun Ce waited quietly for the big fish to fall into the net. After all, this was the only side close to the fire where the Tiger Legion was not present, while the Tiger Legion was still pouring in from the other three sides.

"He Tian, ​​stop! We're here to help you!" Liu Zhengchun's furious roar could be heard through the wall.

"That sounds nice, but you're all a bunch of carrion beasts, here to devour my flesh and blood. I thought you'd at least have some sense of friendship, but I never expected that you'd be the most ferocious man-eaters. Liu Zhengchun, today, none of you will live. Men, kill them all!"

Hearing the continuous screams coming from the courtyard, Yun Ce felt somewhat regretful. Of the seventeen targets that the dogs liked, only six remained in an instant.

Only six people managed to escape alive from the crowded courtyard. Each of them had fallen victim to Yun Ce's ruthlessness. Liu Zhengchun, a man with the air of a leader, risked his life to cover their retreat. After sacrificing an arm, the other five were able to escape death.

So, when Liu Zhengchun was hit by a meteor hammer and was spitting blood as he tried to get back to the other side of the high wall by sticking one hand into the solid wall, he was still spotted by the greedy dog.

Today, Yun Ce has no intention of letting those who know the secrets of the Tiger Legion live.

When Yun Ce climbed over the wall again and came into the courtyard, He Tian was receiving treatment from his subordinates. His broken arms had been straightened and were strapped with wooden boards.

Upon seeing Yun Ce, He Tian did not immediately summon the Tiger Legion to attack him. Instead, he stared intently at Yun Ce and asked, "Bai Chengfeng, the city lord of Bai City, Bai Chengfeng?"

Yun Ce did not argue, but looked at He Tian and said, "I have always had a question for you."

He Tian endured the pain and sneered, "You still want to steal the whistle I mentioned?"

Yun Ce shook his head and said, "I only want to know one thing: back in Qiuhe Prefecture, how could you bear to put your own daughter in a steamer to cook her?"
Also, how did you feel when you saw her steamed?
Was it a revenge, or simply a release of pent-up resentment?

He Tian thought for a moment and said, "I feel uncomfortable. Even though I hate that traitorous brat, I still feel uneasy and uncomfortable after steaming her."

After he finished speaking, he whispered a few words to his subordinates, and soon his subordinates brought over a stove, a large pot, and a huge steamer.

After his subordinates lit the fire, boiled the water, and gathered the steam, He Tian said to Yun Ce, who had been waiting for a long time, "Bai Chengfeng, during the process of steaming you, you will understand how much my daughter regrets betraying her father."

Yun Ce was silent for a moment, then nodded and said, "That's good. It's better to steam things after the steamer is steaming. Meat steamed this way will be more tender. Meat steamed with cold water will be a bit tough."

Seeing Yun Ce's nonchalant expression, He Tian asked suspiciously, "Are you here to die?" After speaking, he began to puff out his cheeks and tremble rhythmically.

Yun Ce walked through the Tiger Warriors. Sometimes, some Tiger Warriors blocked his way, so he carefully moved these obstructing wooden stakes until he arrived in front of He Tian.

For the first time, fear appeared in He Tian's eyes. Even though Yun Ce was within reach, he did not resist. Instead, he continued to puff out his cheeks and tremble violently.

Yun Ce said softly, "Kill all the irrelevant people."

As soon as he finished speaking, He Tian saw the Tiger Legion, which he had desperately wanted to command, immediately move. The cleaver fell without hesitation on He Tian's former subordinates, and in an instant, they were all dead.

He Tian opened his mouth in despair and said, "I don't want the whistle anymore, spare my life."

Yun Ce grinned and said, "You chose the steamer!"

He Tian glanced at the steamer that was already emitting white steam, then at Yun Ce who was smiling warmly, and gritted his teeth, saying, "You'll regret killing me."

Yun Ce said, "He Junnian? Do you know who I am?"

He Tian stammered, "You're not Bai Chengfeng?"

“When did I ever say I was Bai Chengfeng? You’ve been calling me Bai Chengfeng from beginning to end.”

"who are you?"

Yun Ce laughed loudly, "I'm not going to tell you."

Having said that, he pointed at He Tian, ​​and immediately a silver spike brutally pierced his body from the broken part of his arm, causing his left leg, which he had just lifted slightly, to droop limply again.

When the dog pulled its tentacles out of He Tian's body, it seemed rather unsatisfied. However, considering that Yun Ce was going to steam him, it ultimately restrained itself and did not suck him dry.

He Tian was put into a steamer by the Tiger Legion. Yun Ce remained unmoved as he listened to He Tian's screams of agony inside. He let the Tiger Legion hear it, perhaps because they no longer understood the meaning behind Yun Ce's actions.

Yun Ce still believes that it would be better for the world to have more fairness.

The people of Liangcheng first witnessed a massive fire, then heard screams in the middle of the night, and later that night, they heard the commotion of a large group of people setting off.

At this moment, no one dared to care what was happening outside, after all, too many people had died in Liangcheng tonight.

As dawn broke, people cautiously opened their doors and found the streets deserted. Some daring rogues cautiously looked around and discovered that there were no warriors left in the entire city of Liang.

As they expanded their search area, some of the desperados eventually ransacked the deserted city lord's mansion. Finally, after lifting the lid of a steamer in the courtyard, they found a person steamed until soft and fragrant, with tears streaming from their eyes, which had been steamed until they burst open.

After leaving Liangcheng, Yun Ce checked the troops on the wasteland and found that He Tian was a complete liar. The number of Tiger Legion soldiers was neither six thousand nor three thousand, but two thousand four hundred and fifty-seven.

The so-called six thousand actually included a logistics force of three thousand men. After He Tian died, the Tiger Army stopped moving, and the logistics personnel immediately ran away.

In other words, Yun Ce now has to face 2,457 walking corpses all by himself. These walking corpses still rely on food for energy, and the food they eat needs to be fed into their stomachs by logistics personnel through tubes.

Yun Ce couldn't possibly do all these things by himself. Moreover, since these people could eat, they would definitely be able to defecate. Thinking of this, Yun Ce let out a strange cry and warned Gouzi that he must train them to eat and defecate on their own. Otherwise, he would rather set a torch to let these souls that should have been at peace rest forever.

The Tiger Legion disappeared from Liangcheng, and no one knew where they went. Scouts from Yongzhou and Xinpingzhou, like startled donkeys, searched outwards from Liangcheng for three hundred miles, but still found no trace of the Tiger Legion.

Meanwhile, the sky-flying altars searched for two days but found no trace of the Tiger Army.

They vanished as if they had suddenly evaporated from the face of the earth, disappearing without a trace.

People in Yongzhou and Xinpingzhou were searching for the Tiger Legion. Soon, almost every prefecture and county began to pay attention to the Tiger Legion's whereabouts, and news was being relayed intensively from various checkpoints, but there was still no news.
