Gongsun Qiandu ordered the craftsmen of the family to wear the stars and the moon, work overtime, and rush to make siege equipment. The city was brightly lit, and everyone was busy preparing for the attack on the barbarian state.

Zhong Lizan wants to dominate the next three states, and the first step is to conquer Qingzhou. In addition to Chengping, Qingzhou also has some barbarian states in remote mountainous areas. These barbarian states were at war with the Chengping Kingdom, and they always refused to be tamed.

Now, Zhong Lizan wants to destroy the barbarians, completely tame the barbarians, and then occupy Jizhou, send troops to conquer Yangzhou, and realize his grand hegemony.

Xia Yu and Ning Ning smelled the smell of war and went to find Gongsun Qiandu.

Ning Ning asked, "Dad, what are we doing with so many siege equipment?"

Gongsun Qiandu said: "Adults don't care, children. ”

Ning Ning was unhappy and shouted: "Dad, I am not a child anymore, I am also a member of the Gongsun family, and I have the right to know what happens in the family (qíng)." ”

Gongsun Qiandu looked at Ning Ning and said, "Zhonglizan asked me to build a batch of siege equipment. ”

Ning Ning said: "Is this batch of siege equipment built to attack the barbarian state?"

Gongsun Qiandu said: "Ning Ning, you don't have to worry about some things, you just need to stay at home with peace of mind and listen to me." ”

Ning Ning said: "Dad, the barbarian state has not offended our Chengping country recently, for no reason, why should we attack the barbarian state? As soon as the war starts, there will definitely be casualties, how many lives will be lost, how many families will be broken, have you ever thought about it?"

Gongsun Qiandu (yīn) had a calm face and said: "Don't be self-righteous about you little girl, I know what you say, but can I disobey Zhong Lizan's order? If I don't help Zhong Lizan attack the barbarian state, Zhong Lizan will charge our Gongsun family with rebellion, and when the time comes, it will be our Gongsun family who will shed blood." Dad is the patriarch, and Dad has the responsibility and obligation to protect the safety of the whole clan, so that the Gongsun family can survive and reproduce in this ancestral land. ”

Ning Ning said: "But for the sake of the Gongsun family, can you ignore the lives of the people of the barbarian state?"

Gongsun Qiandu said: "I don't want to hurt the barbarian people, but for the sake of the Gongsun family, I can't help it, I can't have both fish and bear's paws." ”

Xia Yu said beside him: "Mr. Gongsun, you helped Zhong Lizan to lead the Gongsun family to the abyss. ”

Gongsun Qiandu glanced at Xia Yu and said, "Mr. Xia, I know about you (qíng), you burned the Blood Refining Flower Farm, and now you are the key culprit named by Zhong Lizan to be arrested, and Zhong Lizan is incompatible." ”

Xia Yu said: "Mr. Gongsun, what I said is completely for the consideration of your Gongsun family, without the slightest selfishness. ”

Gongsun Qiandu Shen (qíng) was cold and said, "Mr. Xia, then I thank you." ”

Ning Ning shouted: "Dad, today Zhong Lizan asked you to help him attack the barbarians, and tomorrow, he asked you to help him attack Yangzhou." Zhong Lizan's ambition is to dominate the lower three states, or even the entire Kyushu continent. If he does this, there is only one end, and that is destruction, do you want to drag the Gongsun family to bury him?"

Gongsun Qiandu (qíng) was excited, clapped his hands, and shouted: "Then tell me, is there any good way to protect our Gongsun family without indiscriminately killing innocents?"

Ning Ning said: "We can refuse to accept Zhong Lizan's order, if Zhong Lizan sends troops to attack us, we will hold the organ city and confront Zhong Lizan." In terms of the solidity of the city, it would never be possible to defeat it without an army of 100,000. ”

Gongsun Qiandu frowned, looked at Ning Ning, and then at Xia Yu. Gongsun Qiandu knew that his daughter couldn't say this, this

The words must have been taught to her by Xia Yu.

Gongsun Qiandu sighed and said, "I still have something to do, you two can go to the study to find me in a while." ”

"Daddy, Daddy, Daddy!"

Ning Ning wanted to stop Gongsun Qiandu, but Gongsun Qiandu strode away.

Ning Ning pursed her lips and said to Xia Yu: "Don't worry, I will definitely convince my father." ”

Xia Yu said: "Your father seems to think that what you said was taught by me, and he is a little disgusted. ”

Ning Ning said: "Whether it's your words or my words, as long as it's a good word, I will say it to my father, the Gongsun family must not help Zhong Lizan do bad things!"

Ning Ning and Xia Yu stayed for a while, went to the study to find Gongsun Qiandu, walked to the door of the study, and saw the iron hand.

Ning Ning asked, "Is my father in the study?"

Tie Shou said, "The master is waiting for Miss and Mr. Xia in the study. ”

Ning Ning and Xia Yu walked into the study, and the study was empty, and they couldn't even see the shadow of Gongsun Qiandu.

Xia Yu suddenly realized and shouted, "Ning Ning, go quickly!"

Xia Yu pulled Ning Ning and wanted to leave the study, but it was too late, the doors and windows of the study were all iron plates, and the entire study was sealed tightly, like a cage.

Ning Ning slammed the iron door hard and shouted, "Open the door, open the door!"

Iron Hand shouted outside the door: "Miss, I'm sorry, my lord is also for your good." ”

Ning Ning was furious and shouted, "Hurry up and open the door, or I will set fire to this study!"

Tie Shou said: "Miss, the master has something to say, before he comes back, he must not let you come out." ”

Ning Ning said: "If you don't open the door, I'll bite my tongue and kill myself, see how you explain when my father comes back!"

Tie Shou said: "Miss, it's not that I'm ruthless, if you really want to commit suicide, I can't stop it." The master said, if I release you, I will kill me, please, Miss, you will be embarrassed for me. ”

"Bastard, asshole, asshole!~~~"

Ning Ning screamed hysterically, pounding the doors and windows non-stop.

Xia Yu stopped Ning Ning and said, "Eliminate the anger, let's find a way to get out." ”

Ning Ning said: "This is the trick of our Gongsun family, even if the blasting bomb can't explode, it's all my fault, it's careless." ”

"Don't be discouraged, we must have a way to get out," Xia Yu touched the wall and walked around the study.

The Gongsun family's mechanism skills really lived up to its reputation, and there was not even a trace of a crack in the entire study, Xia Yu was so anxious that he scratched his head.

Ning Ning sighed, sat on the ground, and said, "It seems that we can only wait for my father to come back, and after tossing for a long time, I am a little hungry." ”

Xia Yu's eyes suddenly lit up and said, "I have a way!"

"What can you do?" asked Ning Ning.

Xia Yu attached himself to Ning Ning's ear and said so.

After listening to this, Ning Ning nodded, stood up, and shouted at the top of his voice: "Tie Shou, you get me something to eat, I'm hungry!"

Iron Hand said outside, "Okay, Miss, you wait a moment. ”

After a while, a hole opened in the door of the study, and a food box passed through it

The small opening was handed in, and the small opening was just big enough to accommodate a food box in and out.

At the moment when the small mouth opened, Xia Yu summoned the spirit treasure of the Earth Thief Star, and the human and spiritual spirits were one, turning (shēn) into a flea and jumping outside through the small mouth. After Xia Yu jumped to the iron hand (shēn), he regained his human form.

As soon as Tie Shou noticed it, Xia Yu took out a silver needle and pierced Tie Shou's (shēn). The iron hand was frozen, and his two subordinates wanted to capture Xia Yu, but Xia Yu took out two more silver needles and fixed these two subordinates.

Xia Yu took a look, this study cage is controlled by a password, and a password disk is placed on the door, on which is written the Heavenly Stems and Earthly Branch, a total of twenty-two words.

Xia Yu asked Tie Shou, "What is the password?"

Iron Hand looked like he would rather die than give in, and said, "If you kill me, I won't say it." ”

Tie Shou is a good person, and he once helped Xia Yu, but Xia Yu couldn't bear to torture him.

Xia Yu looked at the password disk, and according to the fingerprint traces on the password disk, he used the skills of the Earth Meeting Star to start calculating.

(In "Water Margin", the earth will star as a god operator-Jiang Jing, who is good at calculation)

Xia Yu calculated the password, pressed it a few times on the password disk, and the study made a rumbling sound, and untied (jìn) closed.

Iron Hand was dumbfounded and shouted, "Impossible, impossible, impossible......"

Ning Ning ran out of the study, gave Xia Yu a thumbs up, and shouted: "Xia Yu, you are so powerful, handsome and smart, I (ài) will kill you." ”

Xia Yu said: "Let's hurry up now to stop Mr. Gongsun, and we can't let the Gongsun family help Zhong Lizan invade the barbarian state." ”

Xia Yu and Ning Ning snatched a mechanical carriage, advanced at full speed, rushed out of the organ city, and drove towards the mountainous area where the barbarian state was located. Iron Hand and the family chased after him, Xia Yu drove the mechanical carriage to turn left and right, and it took a lot of effort to get rid of Iron Hand and them.

Xia Yu pointed to an official road in front of him and said to Ning Ning: "Let's follow this road, and we can reach the barbarian realm in three hours." ”

Ning Ning said, "Okay, let's go quickly." ”

The mechanical carriage moved at full speed for more than three hours, and finally arrived at the territory of the barbarian state in the evening. Xia Yu and Ning Ning lifted the curtain, looked into the distance, and saw a team in the distance, because the sky was getting dark, the flag of this team could not be seen clearly.

Xia Yu asked Ning Ning, "Is that the team of your Gongsun family?"

Ning Ning said: "I can't see clearly, let's go over and ask." ”

Xia Yu and Ning Ning drove the mechanical carriage and approached the team in the distance. Walking near the team's camp, several warriors with swords stopped the mechanical carriage.

"What man?!" a warrior shouted.

Xia Yu walked out of the carriage, looked at a warrior led by him, was ecstatic, and shouted, "Changsheng, it's me." ”

"Xia Yu!" Liu Changsheng blinked, his face surprised.

Xia Yu smiled and looked at it, those martial artists on Liu Changsheng's side (shēn) were all students of the Righteous Dao Academy, many of whom Xia Yu was familiar with, and Leng Shuangyan was also among them.

Liu Changsheng asked, "Xia Yu, why are you here?"

Xia Yu said: "I want to go to the Barbarian State to stop Zhong Lizan from attacking the Barbarian State." Changsheng, what are you doing here?"

Liu Changsheng said: "Like you, we will go to the Barbarian State to help the Barbarian State defend our homeland and resist Zhonglizan." ”
