After the immortal disappeared

Chapter 56 Fire Burns the City

Human memory can be tampered with.

People often even tamper with their memories, one-sidedly magnifying the good things, and choosing to forget the hardships and misfortunes in the process.

"The perfection of this illusion is actually its biggest flaw and failure." He sighed and put away the notebook. "Finally, Tao Bo wrote that he had a bold solution. After burying the notebook, he would He wanted to try. But it was difficult to do it on his own, and he would inevitably die if he failed. However, there was actually another place in this city that distorted reality and was incompatible with the real history, but his physical condition could no longer be considered. Perhaps latecomers can find breakthroughs.”

Maotao hurriedly asked: "What is this place?"

"He didn't write it." Sun Fuping shook his head. "Ever since entering the illusion, the expedition team felt that they were being targeted. Some people even claimed that they saw a giant red shadow in a trance."

Big red shadow! He Lingchuan's expression changed: "Did they see it too?"

"also?"

"You...didn't see it?"

Everyone was shaking their heads.

"After entering the pool, there seemed to be a big man in the blood, but I couldn't see clearly at all." He Lingchuan smiled bitterly, "So others saw it too? I thought I was dazzled for a moment."

"Living or dead?"

"It's moving, but I'm not sure if it's moving on its own or if it's drifting with the flow."

Obviously his news didn't bring anyone any useful clues. Sun Fuping returned his attention to the issue at hand:

"Tao Bo believes that it may be the spirit of the square pot, or the resentful soul hidden deep inside. Therefore, he cannot write down his own solution or the flaws in the illusion, otherwise the world will change accordingly."

Nian Songyu frowned: "The so-called cracking method doesn't matter whether it is written or not. Tao Bo's failure to return alive means that his method failed."

He Lingchuan said: "But his view of the world is quite interesting. You can start from here."

"How to enter?"

"This world is too perfect, so there is no big square pot?" He Lingchuan said carelessly, "Isn't that very simple? Destroy the world and big square pots will appear, right?"

"You..." Nian Songyu wanted to call nonsense, but then he thought about it, such simple and crude reverse logic seemed...

It seems reasonable, huh?

"Is there any better way to hide than this? No wonder the previous explorers came back empty-handed one after another!" He Lingchuan also became more and more proud as he thought about it, "The most important thing is that Tao Bo turned this place upside down. I’ve searched for it many times, but there must be no useful clues, so I wouldn’t feel bad if I destroyed them all.”

Sun Fuping was a little lost in thought: "About that misfit..." If it is burned, it will be gone.

"Panlong City is so big, where can we find a small flaw? Even if we spend another sixty days, we won't be able to find it. Besides, I don't think we can survive another sixty days."

When Mao Tao heard this, her heart was agitated.

Tao Bo could live for more than sixty days, except for the food and water he brought with him, just by gnawing on the bodies of his companions. There are four people here now. When things are really running out, no matter how you calculate, you will be the first to be eaten!

Thinking of this, he felt that the other three people looked at him with deep malice. He quickly agreed: "Young Master's idea makes sense!"

He Lingchuan glanced at him sideways, as if he could see through his fear: "I remember the National Master said that in the worst case, you can use the luck of the country to rescue us all?"

"Of course, but you only have one chance, so we have to be cautious."

"Are you afraid of a bird?" He Lingchuan chuckled, "Let's discuss how to destroy a world!"

"Set fire!" Nian Songyu and Maotao said in unison this time.

The latter immediately shut up, and the former looked at Sun Fuping: "Just like after Panlong City was destroyed!"

In the past, the Xianba coalition attacked Panlong City, looted and massacred it, and then burned the entire city on fire.

It doesn’t get any more brutal and retro than this.

Sun Fuping thought about it and nodded: "Let's collect the fire starter materials and work separately."

"It's not easy to burn down such a big city, isn't it?" He Lingchuan said, "It's just the four of us, it won't take more than a month or two?"

Maotao was startled and immediately thought of her own fate. Sun Fuping thought for a while: "You are right, we are short of manpower, it is best to call in everyone from outside."

Do you want to call daddy down too? He Lingchuan was startled: "Can you contact me?"

"It's hard to say, let's give it a try." There are two worlds inside and outside. It's not just a matter of distance. Sun Fuping is not completely sure.

Seeing Sun Fuping rolling up his sleeves and preparing to shake people, He Lingchuan waved his hand quickly: "If they can get in but not get out, they will be tricked to death. Why don't we try it first? Tao Bo was the only one who could do it back then."

"So he failed." Nian Songyupi smiled, "No one can leave Panlong Desert in the wild sand season. This is what you said. If we can't get the big square pot, your father can't live without Panlong Desert either." Deserted city. Either way, you have to die here, it’s just a mile away.”

This kid is so cruel. Since he is not his subordinate, he will not feel bad no matter how many times he dies. He Lingchuan was about to fight again when he suddenly had an idea: "We can burn the city alone. We just need to turn around the city ordnance. You see, the houses are mainly concentrated in the south. Dad shouldn't come down now, otherwise who will help us block it?" Gale Army?”

City ordnance?

Nian Songyu pondered, rarely praising him: "It does make some sense!"

There are fortifications on the city walls, and ordnance vehicles are generally used for long-range operations. Some throw rolling stones and flints, and some shoot giant crossbows to defend against siege troops. But if you change their direction, you can set fire towards the city, and the range is far.

This efficiency is naturally much faster than four people fanning around and lighting fires.

Besides, it is not necessary to burn such a large Panlong City. It is probably close to burning the main city area completely.

He Lingchuan struck while the iron was hot: "After all, the range of ordnance is limited. I will first go to the outer areas where it can't hit and burn down all the scattered houses."

He was so considerate that Nian Songyu didn't object anymore. Sun Fuping instead told him: "We will split up and meet at the top of the city in two hours."

"Be sure to be on time! If there is an accident, you must come to the south gate immediately!" He looked solemn. "The flaw we used was thought up by Tao Bo, but he still couldn't go back in the end. This shows that there was force majeure after the burning of the city. You guys If you don’t want to die, you must stand with me when the time comes, remember this!”

So, the four of them split up.

Nian Songyu went south to check the ordnance on the city gate, and also went to the armory to look for war preparation supplies. He has actually led troops to fight and knows exactly where these things will be placed.

He Lingchuan goes east, Maotao goes north, and Sun Fuping goes west.
