Chapter 22 Entering the Battle, the Outcome Is in Doubt

Niu Qu saw that he was interested in wealth and became greedy. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 Info not only confiscated Situ Sheng's golden folding fan, but also misled his uncle, Niu Feng, the king of Daping Mountain, so that he ordered Situ Sheng to be driven away. The minions didn't know the truth, so they turned their swords at each other, trying to intimidate him down the mountain.

Situ Sheng secretly thought: "Ten Thousand Demon Valley and Daping Mountain have been friends for many years, it is impossible for Niu Feng not to see me, there must be something strange during this period!" Thinking of this, Situ Sheng held the horsewhip, and the minions shouted and pushed him down the mountain.

Suddenly, Situ Sheng violently waved the horse whip in his hand, and slapped it on the minions' hands a few times, knocking over the minions' weapons to the ground. The minions covered their hot and aching hands and screamed "ouch".

The big belly's right hand was whipped by the horsewhip and hurt into the bone marrow, so he picked up the knife on the ground with his left hand and scolded: "Your grandmother's!

Situ Sheng didn't take these people in his eyes at all, so he didn't love war. A few dodged, evaded the siege of everyone, and disappeared. The minions even called "stinky boy" a few times, but no one answered. When he turned back and saw the horse he had abandoned on the side of the road, he turned his anger on the horse. The people picked up their broadswords and spears, and cut their horses into several pieces.

Situ Sheng used light skills to leap over the mountain cliffs, and soon came to an open field. The terrain of Daping Mountain was quite familiar to him, so he recognized Niu Feng's house and walked straight over.

"Who!" a voice came from behind him. Then, Situ Sheng felt a gust of wind blowing behind his head.

"Who dares to sneak up on me?" Situ Sheng flashed his thoughts, hid to the side, and saw a huge fist flying over his head. Looking behind him, there stood a man with a big waist and a round waist. When the man saw him dodging, he punched again.

Situ Sheng recognized at a glance that this person was Niu Feng's nephew Niu Qu. He was not annoyed, but smiled while hiding: "I haven't seen you for two years, but I have learned to plot!

Niu Qu didn't pay attention to it at all, and just blindly made a move to hit him. When Situ Sheng dodged, he saw a slight bulge in his arms, as if he was hiding something. Even this man was greedy for money, and thought that it must be some kind of treasure, so he reached out and took it. Unexpectedly, he took out a string of jewels and took out his golden folding fan by the way.

"Haha! So it's here!" Situ Sheng threw away the other treasures and left the golden folding fan in his hand.

Niu Qu saw that he had snatched "his" fan, and he didn't care about anything else, so he scolded: "Little thief, dare to rob Lao Tzu's treasure!

The sound of the fight alarmed Niu Feng. Niu Feng, who had gradually fallen asleep, hurriedly put on a piece of clothing, walked out of the house and shouted, "Who is making noise here?"

Seeing his uncle come out, Niu Qu walked to Niu Feng's side and said, "Uncle, this kid robbed me of something!"

Niu Feng looked in the direction of his finger, only to see Situ Sheng slowly approaching with a golden folding fan, and said with a deep salute: "King, don't come unharmed!"

When Niu Feng saw Situ Sheng coming, he hurriedly greeted him and gave a deep salute and said, "It turned out to be Situ Sheng, the eldest disciple of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley!

Situ Sheng said with a smile: "Now junior brother, I am not only the big disciple of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley, but also the Great Song Dynasty. Junior brother, I am now the commander of the Situ Battalion of the Great Song Army!"

Niu Feng looked up and down: "Ouch! Brother Situ Xian actually got an official errand, it's really amazing! Hurry up and invite!" As he spoke, he let him into the house.

Niu Qu stood aside, not daring to speak, for fear that Situ Sheng would tell Niu Feng about his private money. Once Niu Feng learns of his misdeeds, it will be a punishment. And Niu Feng also knew in his heart that Situ Sheng's golden folding fan was worth a lot of money, and it must be his nephew who wanted to steal it for himself, so that Situ Sheng would make trouble in Dapingshan. Because of Da Pingshan's face, he didn't tell the matter. Situ Sheng still had important things to discuss with Niu Feng, and he didn't have time to joke with the pair of uncles and nephews, so he didn't say anything.

"That'...... Uncle and friend catch up, nephew retires", Niu Qu trotted a few steps away. As a result, the matter was as if it had not happened, and no one mentioned it.

Entering the house, Niu Feng let Situ Sheng to the guest seat and ordered the minions to serve a pot of hot tea.

The structure of the house is very simple, with only an inner room and an outer room, separated by a curtain between the two rooms. There is a large bed in front of the door of the outer room, which is Niu Feng's couch. In the inner room lived the mother of Niu Feng's two brothers, Cai.

It can be seen that Niu Feng woke up from a dream, and the bed has not been cleaned yet. The two sat at the table, and Niu Feng personally made tea for Situ Sheng. After sitting down, Situ Sheng looked at the curtain of the inner room and said, "King, come late at night, I don't know if it disturbs Lord Lingtang's rest?"

Niu Feng waved his hand and said, "It's not in the way, my mother is a few years old, and her ears are a little back." Especially after being blinded by the dog officer, I slept earlier and earlier. Brother Situ Xian has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, and it won't get in the way. ”

Situ Sheng nodded and said, "King, this time I came to be ordered by the commander of the Great Song Army to invite the king out of the mountain." ”

Niu Feng shook his head and said, "Brother Situ Xian, you must understand me." I, Niu Feng, don't think about recruiting at all. If Brother Xian is here for this matter, then I think we should talk about other things! This matter is not negotiable!"

"Haha! The king listened to me!" Situ Sheng continued, "The imperial court is not trying to edict the king, but to expand the territory for the king!"

"Oh, what do you mean by that?"

"King, let me ask you, who is the biggest enemy of Daping Mountain at present?"

"There are many brothers in Dapingshan, and there are mountains of gold and silver treasures, who dares to be the enemy of Dapingshan?"

Situ Sheng shook his head: "Great King, you are inevitably too underestimated against the enemy, haven't you considered that there is a Qingyun Village not far away?"

"Qingyunzhai?hahahaha!" Niu Feng laughed, "Qingyunzhai and my well water do not interfere with river water, he has his Jiangyuan City, and I take care of my Daping Town." After all these years, could it be that he still wants to swallow me?"

Situ Sheng pretended to be surprised and said, "Why, the king doesn't know yet? Qingyunzhai has already taken refuge in the Shu court. ”

"Oh, is there such a thing?" Niu Feng said, "Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Long Jiu is not the kind of person who is willing to ally with the imperial court, his wife ......"

Situ Sheng interjected: "Although his wife was killed by the government, the Taishou of Shu is dead, and the grievances have been written off. At noon today, Long Jiu led people to burn the grain and grass in the Song camp. Now, the situation of the Great Song Dynasty is critical, and if there is no help from the king, I am afraid that the Shu Kingdom will take advantage of the situation to defeat the Great Song Dynasty and even launch a counteroffensive. At that time, Long Jiu will annex Daping Mountain with the help of the imperial court's troops. Has the king considered this?"

Niu Feng listened to it, and thought to himself: "Situ Sheng has always liked to bluff, I don't know if what he said is false." Thinking of this, he asked rhetorically, "So, what does Brother Xian want me to do in Da Pingshan?"

Situ Sheng stood up, shook the folding fan and said, "Of course, the intention of the imperial court is not to edict the king. On the contrary, the king wanted to use the power of the imperial court to expand his territory. At present, Song and Shu are at war, Qingyunzhai has taken refuge in Shu, and the king, why don't you take refuge in the Song country? If you win a great victory in this battle, the king can make conditions to the imperial court!"

"How can you conclude that the Song Kingdom will win?"

"How can I determine whether I won or lost the war of annihilation? It's just that I bet on the Song Kingdom. As he spoke, he sat down, leaned over to Niu Feng and said, "King, do you dare to take this gamble?"

Niu Feng shook his head and said, "Brother Xian, you lost the bet, there is Ten Thousand Demon Valley to shelter." If I lose my bet, I will lose my life. You're leading me into a dead end!"

"King, this is not a dead end, this is the turnaround of Daping Mountain. ”

Niu Feng did not answer, stood up, and paced in the room. Seeing this scene, Situ Sheng picked up the teacup, drank a sip of strong tea and said, "King, this tea is fragrant and mellow." It's a pity that the flavor is too strong, and if you mix it with some plain water, it should be more delicious!"

Niu Feng listened, snorted and said, "Brother Xian, you and I don't have to go around the bend when we talk. You go and tell the Great Song Dynasty that I, Niu Feng, have responded to this situation!"

Situ Sheng stood up and arched his hand: "King, the little brother will not let the king down!"

Niu Feng patted him on the shoulder and said, "It's all here, it's better to stay with me for the time being." How about leaving early tomorrow morning?"

"So, then I stayed. As he spoke, he bowed deeply.

Niu Feng pointed to the door and said, "Come on, take the distinguished guest to the guest room to rest!"

After Situ Sheng retreated, Niu Feng plugged the door and returned to the bed to sit down, never thinking about whether this decision was correct. When I thought about it, I felt sleepy. Just when he was drowsy, only to hear a few light coughs in the inner room, Niu Feng suddenly sat up straight.

"Mother, are you awake?" Niu Feng asked softly.

With another light cough, the voice of an old woman came from the inner room: "The old body has not slept at all. ”

Niu Feng hurriedly turned over, knelt on his knees outside the door curtain and said, "The child is not filial, disturb the mother's rest." ”

"Get up quickly, as the king of Daping Mountain, don't kneel down at every turn. As he spoke, his mother Cai coughed again.

Niu Feng stood up and said, "Mother, then you should rest early!" After speaking, Niu Feng turned around and was about to go to bed.

"Child, don't you want to hear what the old man thinks?"

"What thoughts?"

"This gamble of yours. ”

Niu Feng was stunned for a moment, and then breathed a sigh of relief. Although my mother is blind, she knows everything in the world. At such a critical moment, it is indeed necessary to listen to the mother's opinion.

"What does my mother think about this?"

"This Situ Sheng only told you about Long Jiu, but he didn't mention Han Tao at all. I don't know if it was his negligence, or if he did it intentionally. ”

"Han Tao?"

Mother Cai Shi sat up slowly, coughed lightly and said: "Han Tao, the general of Shu State, is now sitting in Jiangyuan City, and his son Han Xiaoyue is even more brave and good at fighting. Do you know that Li Renhan was defeated by this Han Xiaoyue. In the old body's opinion, the reason why Situ Sheng was able to get out of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley and come here must have been entrusted by the Valley Lord of the Ten Thousand Demon Valley. ”

Niu Feng nodded and said, "Mother's analysis is very reasonable. As far as I know, there are many heroes in the Great Song Dynasty military camp now. ”

"There are so many heroes gathered together to serve the imperial court, and they don't want to do anything, which is really inexplicable. Money, fame, women?"

"Mother means that they have much more than these three things?"

"In the old body's opinion, there is only one thing that can mobilize so many heroes to participate in this war. ”

Niu Feng suddenly realized: "Could it be the legendary sword book?"

Mother Cai Shi smiled: "Son, you are right. This "Sword Hua Benji" has fallen everywhere, and those who have obtained it are afraid that people will find out and cause disaster. Only the emperor of Shu announced to the world with great fanfare that he had obtained 'a useless sword book'. Although it is useless, it is hidden in the inner court and has not been destroyed. It can be seen that this emperor heard the value of this book, so it is so. ”

Niu Feng nodded and said, "Mother thinks that the child decided to wade into this troubled water, is it correct?"

"From the old body's point of view, the child just goes! If you really let Qingyunzhai take the lead, I'm afraid you won't even be able to hold this mountain!" said the mother Cai, lying down slowly, "In addition, the old body wants to tell you a few words." In an eventful season, we should not believe people's words, and everything should be believed by seeing. Can you understand?"

Niu Feng let out an "um", and thought to himself: "Everyone is going to grab this "Sword Hua Benji", I'm afraid I don't have much chance of winning." However, this is a great opportunity to bring down Qingyunzhai, and it must not be missed!"
