Chapter 662: Resignation and Retirement

Xia Yu turned to look at Mao Dan in the illusion and shouted, "Jump out!"

More than half of the boat had turned into paper and sank to the bottom of the sea, and Mao Dan was terrified and jumped towards the halo. However, the halo turned into a wall, and Mao Dan jumped a few times, but they all bounced back, and he couldn't jump over it at all.

"What's going on?" Xia Yu asked Ge Huaiqing.

Ge Huaiqing frowned and said, "He must have hidden the gold of the Golden Island on his body." ”

Xia Yu shouted at Mao Dan: "Hurry up and throw away the gold on your body, hurry!"

Mao Dan was proud of sacrificing his life and money, but when it came to the moment of life and death, after some hesitation, Mao Dan still chose not to have money, he threw the gold on his body into the sea, and then plunged into the halo, penetrated the halo, got rid of the illusion, and returned to the real world.

Mao Dan just jumped out, and in the illusion, a big wave hit and swallowed the paper boat. The rain and wind are raging, the turbidity waves are raging, and the illusion is already an apocalyptic scene.

Mao Dan let out a sigh of relief, and laughed when he saw that Lei Hu was still on the Golden Island, guarding a pile of gold. After laughing for a while, Lei Hu also realized that something was wrong with the scene around him, he was carrying a few pieces of gold, and wanted to jump into the sea to swim away, but the wind and waves were too strong, and he couldn't use his true qi, so he couldn't go into the sea at all.

"Damn, Lao Tzu has a golden island and a golden mountain, and he must not just die," Lei Hu wanted to find something on the island and make a boat.

After turning around, Lei Hu was a little desperate, there was nothing on the island except gold, and the gold sank to the bottom when it was thrown into the sea, and it couldn't be a boat at all.

The wind and rain became more and more violent, and the halo on the sea surface became thinner and thinner, and after the halo disappeared, the thunder tiger would never return to the real world.

Lei Hu was scared, with tears in his eyes, and shouted at the sky, "Third Young Master, I know it's wrong, you can find a way to save me." ”

Ge Huaiqing shook his head and sighed, "Hey, it's late, it's late, I knew today, why bother in the first place." ”

In the night sky, the moon and the seven stars scattered, and as the landscape of the seven stars and the moon disappeared, the illusion presented by the cornucopia also disappeared. Before the illusion disappeared, Xia Yu, Ge Huaiqing, and Mao Dan heard Lei Hu's terrible scream, which made people shudder.

The altar regained its calm, Ge Huaiqing grabbed the cornucopia, put it in the storage bag, and said, "This cornucopia is a harmful thing, and the head of the family told me to take it back and destroy it." ”

Mao Dan asked Ge Huaiqing, "Master, Lei Hu died like that?"

In the past, Lei Hu was Mao Dan's deputy general, and the two of them called each other brothers, and they had a good relationship.

Ge Huaiqing sighed and said, "Thunder Tiger is not dead, but his soul is scattered. ”

Mao Dan was stunned, his heart couldn't be calm for a long time, Lei Hu was such a strong man, and the fourfold cultivation of the Lingwu Realm was gone.

Ge Huaiqing Xia Yu and Mao Dan arched their hands and said, "Two, I have to go back to report to the head of the family, and I have said goodbye, we will have a date later." ”

Xia Yu, Mao Dan said goodbye to Ge Huaiqing, Ge Huaiqing summoned a somersault cloud, sat on top of the somersault cloud, swished, turned into a bright light, and disappeared into the night sky.

Mao Dan thought about the tragic situation of Lei Hu before he died, and his heart was still horrified, Xia Yu patted Mao Dan and said, "Let's go, let's go to Huoniuguan." ”

Xia Yu and Mao Dan came to the front of Huoniu Pass, at this time, the sky was bright and it was already morning. Xia Yu saw a group of people with weapons in front of the gate, shouting and scolding at the officers and soldiers on the city wall.

Xia Yu took a closer look, and among the people holding weapons, the leader was Li Tie.

"Second brother!" Xia Yu called out and ran over with Mao Dan.

After Xia Yu and Li Tie came to Huoniu Pass, they found that Lei Hu occupied Huoniu Pass and refused to surrender to the thief alliance, so Xia Yu and Li Tie wrote a letter, and Feige passed the book to Jiang Xiaobai.

After Jiang Xiaobai read the letter, he immediately sent a group of martial artists who were good at light skills to rush to Huoniu Pass as quickly as possible. When this group of warriors arrived at Huoniu Pass, they happened to meet Li Tie.

Li Tie was very happy to see Xia Yu, the two brothers laughed and talked about business, Li Tie told Xia Yu that the soldiers guarding Huoniu Pass would not enter the oil and salt, and he would take the warriors to storm Huoniu Pass.

Xia Yu said: "Second brother, don't be in a hurry to attack the city first, I'll let Mao Dan persuade those soldiers." ”

"Wasn't Mao Dan overthrown by Lei Hu and his whereabouts unknown?" Li Tie said.

Xia Yu called Mao Dan over with a smile and said, "Second brother, he is Mao Dan." ”

Li Tie looked at Mao Dan and said, "Aren't you ten thousand taels of gold?"

Mao Dan said: "Wan Liang Jin is my pseudonym, I am Mao Dan." ”

"That's just right," Li Tie pointed to the officers and soldiers on the city wall, and said to Mao Dan: "You quickly persuade them and let them open the city and surrender, otherwise it will annoy us to fight against the thieves and the coalition army, and after a strong attack, the jade will be burned." ”

Mao Dan stepped forward, and the officers and soldiers on the city wall bent their bows and arrows, aimed at Mao Dan, and shouted: "Stop!"

Mao Dan stopped, raised his head, and shouted at the officers and soldiers: "Open your eyes and look at it, I am your general." ”

The officers and soldiers looked at each other, and the thin man under the city was really Mao Dan, and there were many discussions.

Mao Dan said: "Lei Hu is dead, I am still the guard of Huoniu Pass, you quickly open the city gate and welcome the thief alliance into the city." I assure you that I will not punish any of you for the rebellion of the Thunder Tiger, and you will be bold and confident in opening the gates of the city. ”

The officers and soldiers hesitated, discussed for a while, and finally made up their minds, closed the spirit array, opened the Huoniu Pass, and invited the thieves to enter the city.

After entering Huoniu Pass, Mao Dan asked the officers and soldiers to take out wine and meat, set up a few tables, and invited Xia Yu, Li Tie and the warriors of the Thief Alliance to eat and drink.

Xia Yu and Li Tie held the wine bowl and wanted to get drunk with Mao Dan, Mao Dan waved his hand again and again, saying that he would not drink.

Li Tie's eyes widened and said, "You are also a manly husband and a soldier, how can you not drink?"

Mao Dan said: "General Li, I didn't lie to you, I really don't know how to drink, I will replace wine with tea, toast General Li, and ask General Li to bear with me." ”

Mao Dan said that he didn't want to drink, Li Tie felt bored, turned around, and had a few drinks with Xia Yu.

Xia Yu said: "General Mao understands the righteousness, submits to the third son, welcomes us to the thief alliance into the city, and after we show the third son, the third prince will definitely reward General Mao greatly." ”

Mao Dan said: "I once aided in the abuse, the third son is gracious, if you don't punish me, I will be thankful, as for the reward, I dare not ask for it." ”

Xia Yu said: "Since you have surrendered to the third prince and joined the alliance of thieves, you are our brother, don't be polite between brothers." ”

Mao Dan looked straight and said: "I'm really not polite, I've thought about it for a long time, and I feel that officialdom and rivers and lakes are not suitable for me, and the most suitable for me is the small mountain village in my hometown." I have also saved some money over the years, and I want to go back to my hometown to build a big mansion, relax and live a good life for a few days. ”

Mao Dan wanted to retire, Xia Yu and Li Tie persuaded him a few words, but he politely declined, and he was determined to return to his hometown.

Since Mao Dan is so persistent, Xia Yu and Li Tie are not easy to force. Mao Dan wrote a letter to Jiang Xiaobai, asking Jiang Xiaobai to allow him to retire.

Originally, Jiang Xiaobai was not at ease with Mao Dan, and was worried about how to arrange Mao Dan, and after receiving Mao Dan's letter, Jiang Xiaobai was overjoyed, and even waived the politeness, and directly allowed Mao Dan to retire.

Mao Dan took the gold, silver and jewelry, returned to his hometown happily, and lived a happy life as a rich man.

Xia Yu and Li Tie led the officers and soldiers to guard Huoniu Pass, waiting for Jiang Xiaobai's arrival. Jiang Xiaobai led a large army of thieves and thieves, and then arrived and met with Xia Yu and Li Tie at Huoniu Pass.

Everyone gathered together to discuss the next step, and Xia Yu proposed to send a vanguard team to open the way in front and clear the obstacles to Yongfu City for Jiang Xiaobai.

Everyone nodded their heads again and again, thinking that this method was very good.

Jiang Xiaobai pondered and said, "Who will lead this vanguard team?"

Xia Yu said: "Third brother, if you can trust me, let me lead this vanguard." ”

Jiang Xiaobai looked at Xia Yu and said, "Old pimple, I naturally trust your strength, but the task of this vanguard is very arduous and full of danger. ”

Xia Yu smiled indifferently and said, "Third brother, don't forget, I take adventures as food." ”

Li Tie said beside him: "I'll go with the old pimple." ”

Liu Changsheng and Leng Shuangyan raised their hands in response and said, "Let's go too." ”

Jiang Xiaobai arched his hand at Xia Yu and Li Tie, and said, "I have to work for everyone." ”

Having made up their minds, Xia Yu, Li Tie, Liu Changsheng, and Leng Shuangyan immediately took action, led a vanguard of 200 people, and advanced at full speed to open the way for the large army.

After passing the Huoniu Pass and walking forward, the first big city he met was called Grizzly Bear City, Xia Yu and Li Tie, Liu Changsheng, and Leng Shuangyan set up camp in a forest outside the city to discuss how to act.

Li Tie said: "This grizzly bear city is a big city, there are thousands of officers and soldiers in the city, we only have two hundred people, if we can't fight, don't fight, let's write a letter first to persuade the city lord to surrender." ”

Leng Shuangyan said beside him: "I heard that this grizzly bear city lord is Zhong Lizan's henchman, we wrote a letter to persuade him to surrender, he surrendered, which is naturally a good thing, if he doesn't surrender, wouldn't we be startled." ”

Liu Changsheng said: "Then we will sneak into Grizzly City, and after dark at night, we will do it, and we will break this Grizzly City." ”

Li Tie said: "Grizzly City mainly intends to surrender, isn't it self-defeating for us to toss like this." ”

Li Tie, Liu Changsheng, and Leng Shuangyan argued endlessly.

Liu Changsheng said: "Okay, let's stop arguing, listen to Xia Yu." ”

The three of them turned their heads to look at Xia Yu, Xia Yu frowned, also a little embarrassed, and was about to speak, when a soldier under his command walked into the camp tent and said, "My lord, there is a messenger asking to see you." ”

"Messenger, whose messenger?" Xia Yu asked.

The soldier said, "It's the emissary sent by Grizzly City." ”
