Zhuge Wuhou can be called the top strategist in the world of Dynasty Warriors, and he is also a perverted all-round military commander. Although the secret passage Tokugawa Ieyasu dug in Edo Castle was very secret, it was still not able to conceal Zhuge Liang's investigation.
For some reason, instead of destroying the secret passage leading into the city, he took this opportunity to lay out a series of trial formations, hoping to trick future intruders.
And Honda Tadakatsu, who was completely unaware, would have been captured by countless defenders attracted by the sound of the trap, even if he had not fallen into this trap without Le Yuan's prompting.
As a secret road laid by Zhuge Liang, the trap will naturally not be that short one. This thousand-meter-long road has three major traps. What Le Yuan and I just passed was just the first level - the trap formation. Although it has no direct lethality, it will alert the defenders on the ground after being triggered, and Le Yuan's infiltration plan will directly fail.
Although the next two traps are quiet and very secretive and will not attract the attention of the defenders, they are more deadly.
Before Le Yuan and Honda Tadakatsu had gone far, Honda Tadakatsu who was walking in front stopped unknowingly. When Le Yuan came to his side, he realized that his eyes had become very blurred. Although his body was normal, his soul seemed to have floated away. No matter how Le Yuan whipped him, he could not wake him up.
"How could this happen? I wasn't hit, but Honda Tadakatsu was. What's the problem?"
Le Yuan had just formed an alliance with someone, so it was unjustifiable to leave Honda Tadakatsu here.
Le Yuan, who stopped, looked around at the almost empty passage, looking for possible formation eyes. There were none on the soles of the feet; there were still none on the left and right walls. When Le Yuan looked at the passage above his head, he discovered that there was a dark purple gem hidden in the darkness.
One was found, and Le Yuan then found dozens of gems of various colors arranged in a strange formation in the passage in front. Le Yuan raised his right hand and pointed at a gem above his head, stretched out two fingers and raised his sword at the same time. Qi suddenly burst out from his fingertips.
"Qiang—"
The sword energy hit the gem and let out a soft cry. Although Le Yuan's attack hit, it had no effect at all. Immediately afterwards, Le Yuan used his sword to chop and pry again, but the gem showed no tendency to fall off. Seeing that his attack failed, Le Yuan could only shake his head. If Zhuge Liang's formation was so easy to break, then he would not have set it up at all.
External attacks were ineffective, and Le Yuan had no choice but to continue walking forward. Le Yuan advanced no more than seven steps, and the scenery in front of him suddenly changed. Le Yuan seemed to have arrived at another place in an instant. There was a vast area in front of him, except for a wooden machine man.
When Le Yuan saw the machine man opposite him raise his right hand, he immediately threw a right hook at the machine man without thinking. However, he did not expect that before his attack could hit the opponent, the machine man's right hook hit him. Hit him on the right cheek.
Then a piece of information was automatically transmitted to Le Yuan's mind. It turned out that the area he was in now was the location of the maze formation, and the key to breaking the formation was to defeat the machine man in front of him. The machine man does not have any intelligence. The only way to attack is to read the challenger's thoughts and counterattack in the same way with a reaction attack speed that is 0.1 seconds faster than the challenger.
Straight punches, downward kicks, hooks, sword attacks... After Le Yuan's various attempts, dragging his scarred body, he finally became convinced of one thing, that is, the machine man was indeed faster than him in any movement, and at the same time, he was really There is no wisdom at all.
"Quick? Is it useful?"
At this moment, Le Yuan suddenly raised two fingers of his right hand and placed them on his heart. The wooden mechanism man also followed suit and put his right hand on his body. When Le Yuan grinned, powerful sword energy burst out from the hands of several people standing in front of Le Yuan and pierced his heart.
The moment Le Yuan saw the opponent being hit, he suddenly removed his right hand in just 0.1 seconds and stopped the suicide attack.
With the death of the wooden machine man in front of him, everything in front of Le Yuan slowly dissipated like a mirror, and finally when Le Yuan regained consciousness, he found that he had returned to the tunnel.
Everything in the illusion in his mind gradually blurred, but this did not prevent Le Yuan from hating the formations deployed by Zhuge Liang. Turning his head and looking at Honda Tadakatsu, who had just woken up, Le Yuan waved his hand to let him continue to follow.
After two encounters, Le Yuan used his spiritual sense to check up and down the passage, and explored all possible problems in advance, and finally found the last one at the last 200 meters of the passage. The location of the formation. This time Le Yuan did not intend to be tricked again, and directly led Honda Tadakatsu across here.
There are many buildings in the inner city of Edo, among which two buildings are the most eye-catching. There are two buildings: the small castle tower and the castle tower. The castle tower was originally Tokugawa Ieyasu's mansion. It was burned down just once on the day of Torochi's invasion, and it didn't take long for it to be rebuilt.
"What should we do now? Do you, the guide, have any suggestions? Where is the most likely place to imprison someone?"
Le Yuan took Honda Tadakatsu, who had come out of the tunnel, to hide behind the small castle tower.
Honda Tadakatsu poked his head out and inspected the heavily guarded inner city, then returned to Le Yuan and said: "Basically, there has not been much change. If they have not renovated it, then the dungeon and the dungeon under the east building will The castle tower is the most likely place, but these two places are heavily guarded, so I think... "
Before the words "long-term plan" were uttered, Honda Tadakatsu saw Le Yuan's right hand suddenly spurting out a transparent liquid, and then completely wrapped him and Le Yuan, and then their bodies emerged from the night. completely disappeared.
Although the Illusion Body Curse cannot be deceived by unparalleled generals, it can be used to deceive ordinary people. With Honda Tadakatsu leading the way, the two of them avoided six teams of patrolling soldiers along the way, and followed the deep and dark stone path to the underground prison in the inner city of Edo.
Once inside the prison, the guards relaxed a lot. This may be related to the environment in the dungeon. It was dark and the air was not circulating. All the resisters detained here were weak. Although they were not sick, their condition was very poor.
Le Yuan and Honda Tadakatsu glanced at the people imprisoned here one after another. Le Yuan was very calm, but Honda Tadakatsu on the side could not control his anger. He knew many of them very well, and some of them were his former companions.
Just when Honda Tadakatsu planned to fight to rescue the group of people based on the principle that he could bear no more, Le Yuan directly put a hand on his shoulder. Le Yuan's power made the people who were originally angry Honda Tadakatsu, who was overwhelmed by his reason, shivered and came to his senses.
Even if Le Yuan and others can rescue this group of people, what can they do? It seems that they will not be able to recover in a short time. Even if they are rescued, they are still a group of soft-footed shrimps that cannot help. Even if they were forced to take them with them at this time, let alone capture Edo Castle, even if they were captured, they would not be able to defend it.
You must know that Edo Castle is located in the hinterland of Torochi's power and is basically isolated and helpless. Once it is captured, it will face conquests from Torochi's army from all directions. Le Yuan has no interest in staying to help them defend the city.
The best way to completely save this group of people is to wait for the army to attack the city, and then work together to rescue them all. Resisting the urge to take action, Honda Tadakatsu followed Le Yuan and continued to move forward.
Soon the two of them came to the deepest part of the dungeon. When they saw the two cells at the end of the passage, both Le Yuan and Honda Tadakatsu opened their eyes wide. The people imprisoned inside were both recognize.
The person imprisoned on the left is a woman with a long ponytail and a purple cloth armor with the intellectual beauty of a woman. This person is Inahime, the daughter of Honda Tadakatsu. As for the person imprisoned in the cell on the right, there is a beautiful girl with short brown hair and a waist that is unimaginable for ordinary people. Sun Shangxiang is known as the Bow-waisted Girl.
The mental state of these two people is much better than that of the group of people outside. Although their skin is a bit pale, they are in a state of being able to fight at any time, both mentally and physically.
Honda Tadakatsu could endure it before, but when he saw his daughter being imprisoned in front of him, he could no longer endure it. He looked back at Le Yuan, with determination in his eyes.
Le Yuan considered the fighting prowess of the two, and then nodded to Honda Tadakatsu. But before that, Le Yuan still had something to ask them. Le Yuan's body passed through the pillar and came to the captured Sun Shangxiang.
Looking at Le Yuan who suddenly appeared in front of him, Sun Shangxiang opened his mouth wide and was about to scream. The blue light of the dragon ring on Le Yuan's hand lit up, and then the inside and outside of the cell became two worlds, and the sound was at this moment Completely separated.
"Hey, Miss Sun, I'm not a weirdo. Can you stop looking at me like a monster?"
Le Yuan looked at Sun Shangxiang, who had screamed for a full minute, and couldn't help but put his right hand on her forehead, temporarily eliminating her ability to speak.
It took Sun Shangxiang a lot of effort to accept Le Yuan's existence, and then after Le Yuan removed his hand, he couldn't help but ask: "Who are you? How did you get in here?"
"Well, if I really want to talk about it, it should be the person who resisted Yuan Luzhi. Before that, can you answer me a question? Are Liu Bei and Liu Xuande also imprisoned in this city?"
Le Yuan asked with the attitude of giving it a try.
"This, it should be gone. I seem to have heard the jailers chatting here a few days ago. Liu Bei was indeed imprisoned here for a period of time, but it seemed that he had been taken away by someone. As for where he was taken, he didn't know where he was. No idea at all.”
Although Liu Bei has been transferred away, Le Yuan is not worried at all. As long as the generals of Shu are still useful to Yuan Luzhi, then Liu Bei will be absolutely safe.
At this time, Le Yuan turned his attention to Sun Shangxiang and looked down at Sun Shangxiang, who was holding wooden shackles in his hands. Le Yuan asked aloud: "Miss Sun, are you willing to leave this place with me? Join us to resist Yuan Luzhi Among the ruling alliances!”
Hearing Le Yuan's words, Sun Shangxiang had an idea. How could a girl want to stay in such a ghost place? But then she shook her head and said, "Father is still in their hands, I can't leave like this!"
As the hostages of Soochow, Sun Shangxiang and Sun Jian can be said to be powerful weapons that threaten the entire Soochow. Once there is any change in Soochow, the two hostages will be the first to suffer.
"Do you want to save Sun Jian? I don't think there is any use in being captured without mercy. The most important thing to Soochow is Sun Jian and Sun Ce. Even if you rebel against Yuan Luzhi, they can only turn a blind eye. Once you attack Sun Jian, they will force you to do it." Since the generals of Soochow rebelled, why don't you join my team, I think I should be able to help you get Sun Jian out!"
This girl Sun Shangxiang, who has not yet married Liu Bei, is like a little sheep. The desire for freedom in her heart is gradually aroused by Le Yuan's words. Finally, she agrees and wants to use Le Yuan's power to rescue Sun Jian.
