Chapter 905: Chapter 910 This is Truly the Life of Immortals!
Their Inner Strength had improved immensely, and their bodies had been tempered to excellent condition, making living to two hundred years old a breeze.
Yet he still had no confidence that he could outlive this rascal pig!
Upon hearing Qin Yi’s words, the normally indifferent rascal pig unexpectedly showed interest in what Qin Yi said and listened attentively.
After it had swept the table clean of food, it picked up the item entrusted by Qin Yi and swiftly set off into the dark night.
Soon, its tiny figure appeared outside Xiangyang City.
Without any noticeable action, it went straight across the moat, climbed the tall walls, and entered the city. It strolled by the city guards as if invisible to them, allowing it free passage.
It was very familiar with Xiangyang City and quickly reached the residence of Prefect Gongsun, stealthily making its way inside only to find the Prefect still furiously writing at his desk, despite the late hour.
It went straight up to the desk and looked down to see the Prefect repeatedly making marks on a City defense map. Finally, with a sigh, the Prefect put away the map and proceeded to the adjacent room to wash and rinse.
The rascal pig eyed the drawer holding the City defense map and then glanced at the room. Burying its head, it reopened the drawer, took out the City defense map, and left behind a letter from Qin Yi inside the drawer before taking the map and leaving.
What a City defense map was, the rascal pig didn’t quite understand.
The only reason it took the map was because it sensed the map’s importance from the careful manner in which it was handled, instinctively feeling it would be useful for Qin Yi.
Qin Yi was overjoyed to receive the City defense map!
Wishing he could kiss the rascal pig, he immediately promised it a multitude of delectable rewards without a care that it was the middle of the night.
The rascal pig, pleased with its rewards, wagged its small tail even more cheerfully!
With a happy heart, it joyfully handed over all the food that Su Pan’er had entrusted it to carry to Qin Yi.
Already elated with the earlier acquisition of the City defense map, Qin Yi became even happier upon receiving this abundance of food. Taking the City defense map, he gathered his men overnight to analyze it and crafted an effective attack plan.
Contrastingly, Prefect Gongsun of Xiangyang City was far from happy!
Waking up in the morning, he discovered that the City defense map had been stolen, and his face turned as dark as murky waters.
Before he could order a thorough investigation, he found the Persuade to surrender letter from Qin Yi in the drawer.
Prefect Gongsun barely glanced at the contents of the letter before his rage tore the letter into shreds!
"This naive youngster, just because he popped up from some mountain gullies, really thinks he’s nobility? He expects me to surrender to him, pah, in his dreams!"
He immediately ordered an increase in vigilance and hastily altered the city’s deployment in an effort to strengthen the defenses as quickly as possible.
It wasn’t until he had finished this flurry of activity that he thought of the suspicious timing between the unexpected theft of the City defense map and the arrival of the letter, suspecting a mole among his trusted aides, and thus commanded a meticulous investigation.
Suddenly, the whole of Xiangyang City was thrown into a state of anxiety.
In truth, Qin Yi had known all along that the letter would have no effect. His real strategy was yet to come!
Despite Prefect Gongsun’s best efforts to be prepared for everything, Qin Yi’s forces quickly identified weak spots in Xiangyang City’s defenses. Unexpectedly, they broke through from an underground waterway near the mountain side. Even with prompt remedial actions, thousands still lost their lives in this unforeseen assault, which left Prefect Gongsun seething with frustration.
But what angered him even more was still to come!
When he returned to his room, exhausted, he unexpectedly found another Persuade to Surrender letter on his desk!
Prefect Gongsun felt as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over him; a chill surged from his tailbone to the top of his head, scaring him into crying out for his servants and ordering a thorough investigation of all those who entered and left the City Lord’s Mansion.
That day, quite a few people in the City Lord’s Mansion were implicated and thrown into prison. Dozens more were pitilessly killed.
When he cautiously returned to his room three days later and saw the desk was empty, he finally breathed a sigh of relief!
Unexpectedly, in the middle of the night, he felt as if someone was staring at him. Startled from a nightmare, he awoke to see a shadow flitting across the window, causing him to cry out for help in alarm! In an instant, the entire City Lord’s Mansion was roused, brightly lit!
Yet the most horrifying things were still far from over!
As he turned around to get dressed, he unexpectedly saw another Persuade to Surrender letter resting next to his pillow!
He screamed in terror, "Mommy," and tumbled out of bed in a scramble.
That night, everyone in the City Lord’s Mansion, from the Chief Manager down to the old maids in the laundry workshop, was petrified and felt threatened, fearing that the executioner’s blade could descend upon their heads at any moment.
In the following days, the number of people in the City Lord’s Mansion rapidly decreased. No matter how they searched or how many guards they posted, the Persuade to Surrender letter would always mysteriously appear before his eyes, as if it had descended from the heavens.
He was at peak fear of that "expert" who came without a shadow and left without a trace!
As the tone of the Persuade to Surrender letters grew increasingly severe and the vile air intensified, Prefect Gongsun feared that the killer might turn on him at any moment!
After some thought, he gathered his trusted aides to collectively discuss the matter of capitulation.
His two huge dark circles could rival a panda’s, and the condition of his subordinates was not any better than his! It turned out that the "expert" was not only sending Persuade to Surrender letters to the City Lord’s Mansion but also to the close confidants of his trusted aides.
Furthermore, the enemy had obtained the City Defense Map, and for many days in a row, they were caught off guard, causing morale to disintegrate. Everyone felt that they could no longer hold on!
Should they capitulate?
The people looked at one another, none daring to be the first to suggest it, to be that leading bird.
Barely keeping his eyes open, Prefect Gongsun looked at the fewer than half of his trusted aides left and said, "Speak up, how should we deal with an expert on their side?"
What the people discussed and how they responded were naturally unknown to outsiders.
Compared to the dispirited people inside Xiangyang City, the Qin troops outside were recently jubilant, each one brimming with energy, eager to kill their way into Xiangyang City and establish their merits.
And the rascal pig had been having a blast recently!
The people in the city, not to be trifled with, naturally thought of many strategies, like digging traps and ordering strict vigilance. But with the rascal pig’s ability to read memories, their efforts were transparent and self-deceptive.
Every day, there were so many people taking turns playing with it, and with the recent lavish care and good food and drink it received daily, it had long forgotten about Su Pan’er and was thoroughly content.
It sprawled out on the bed’s head, squinting its eyes in sleep, still clutching an unfinished pig’s trotter between its two little hooves, laughing even in its dreams!
This was truly the life of an immortal!
