Chapter 144: Xie Mu's Curtain Call (Part II)

What Xie Mu was going to do by the Yellow River, Ziyou had already faintly noticed something.

But it depends on how much Xie Mu can do.

In addition to really going to the Yellow River as Ziyou expected, brewing something big, the thief who came to report added. "Xie Mu named and asked to see Young Master Liu."

"What are you doing with me? Do you think that dying at my hands is a well-deserved death? Then satisfy him. ”

As he spoke, he took some bandits who volunteered to follow the past, walked towards the Yellow River on foot, and when he left, he instructed others to deal with Uncle Cheng's funeral, and wait for him to come back with Xie Mu's head as a memorial to Cheng Li's funeral!

……

The turbulent Yellow River has given birth to the 5,000-year-old civilization of China, a huge dragon that fertilizes the entire East China Plain.

It can be said that without the nourishment of the Yellow River, there would be no ancient powerful Han culture, but it is this Yellow River that has raised the Han people and destroyed the Han people.

In the past 5,000 years, the Yellow River has broken every three years and changed its course every 100 years, and each time it will displace countless Han people and destroy their families.

It was against this background that Xie Mu stood on the embankment of the Yellow River, looking down at Ziyou and the others who were rushing over.

"Ahh......h I've only heard of it before, and it's the first time I've been so close......" Ziyou raised his head and looked at the towering earthen embankment, and exclaimed. "I've only heard of the lower reaches of the Yellow River, and they are all above ground rivers, and the riverbed is higher than the surrounding ground...... I didn't expect it to be so much higher......"

Young Master Liu...... The bottom of the Yellow River...... But it's higher than the walls of Selangor......" reminded the bandit beside Ziyou.

Ziyou nodded, as if he heard it, he restrained his joy, and his eyes were slightly fixed to look not far away.

It is adjacent to the Yellow River, and many people stand there...... Xie Mu and his gang.

In front of them, there were hundreds of bandits who had chased them before, and the two sides were facing each other, and no one dared to make any further moves.

I saw Ziyou and his party gradually approaching.

Among them, Xie Mu was holding a torch. Under his feet is a long gray line buried in the ground. He couldn't help shouting at Ziyou. "Liu Ziyou! You're here just in time, let you see my masterpiece Xie Mu! Masterpiece! ”

"Let you witness this moment with your own eyes!"

Ziyou was not in a hurry or panic, and only after walking to a position about the same distance from Xie Mu did he answer Xie Mu's words.

"Is it to break the embankment of the Yellow River and let everyone go to fish farming......

"Aha!" Xie Mu swallowed excitedly. "Now, it's not surprising that you can guess it, because of this in the first place, because I threatened to break the Yellow River, forcing Wu Yun's army of more than 10,000 to give up the attack on our Jiuli Cottage. To this day, I still dare not act rashly! ”

"It's me! It's me Xie Mu who did all this! It's not you Liu Ziyou! No one can compare to my resourcefulness, whether it is Luo Yuan or you Liu Ziyou, because I am Xie Jinyuan's son! I'm going to vindicate him! Our Xie family is definitely not a wine bag and rice bag! ”

Speaking of this, Xie Mu knelt down and raised his head to the sky and roared. "Daddy! Do you see, everything you have not done will be done by your son! Overthrow the Hong Dynasty and defeat Luo Yuan. Even if I can't, I'll bear your name and go down through the ages! ”

"Let everyone remember the Xie family's father and son!"

Xie Mu seemed to have thought of something, and he cried. The people around him couldn't help but speak.

It wasn't until Xie Mu himself recovered from this feeling that he stretched out his arm to wipe the tears on his face, and at the same time returned to that hideous color. "Break open the embankment of the Yellow River. Hundreds of millions of fertile fields were destroyed in one fell swoop, hundreds of people were displaced, and the roots of the Hong Dynasty were basically unstable. After this incident, there may be another chaos in the world. ”

"Even if I can't see it, I'll be happy to think about it......"

"There are thousands of pounds of gunpowder buried under my feet, as long as I ignite this line of fire...... It doesn't take long for us to go up to heaven together, but our heads that fall from the sky will see the waves of the river rushing towards Selangor City...... Isn't that interesting......"

Xie Mu is really crazy.

It's just that his madness is indeed a headache, and the surrounding bandits don't dare to take a step under Xie Mu's madness. I'm afraid that his excitement will really ignite the line of fire, then everything will be over, and the people of the entire East China Plain will suffer a huge disaster!

Azusa You's eyes locked...... In fact, he was also worried that such a thing would happen, and as far away, he could clearly see the peaceful city of Selangor in the distance, sitting like a turtle on the earth, but the people in it did not seem to be aware of the possible disaster.

Zhao Yiyi is in the city, Ziyou's small family is also in that city, and the original plan to make a fortune is also in the city, it seems that Selangor City can't suffer disasters no matter what, even if it is not for the sake of those people, he Ziyou should think about himself.

The gunpowder exploded, and even if Ziyou could get away with it, the surrounding land would be flooded...... Then the Nine Mile Mountains will become Hawaii...... It's just that there are no stunning beaches, only ...... Famine that gradually starved people to death.

If the Yellow River bursts, Ziyou has already imagined what will happen.

Turning around, facing Xie Mu, who was already crazy, Ziyou still had a calm look, slightly mocking. "How long have you been buried with gunpowder?"

"What's wrong? If you don't believe me, I'll just try it. Xie Mu said waving a torch. Since two years ago, we have come to this Jiuli Mountain to settle for the grass, and we have prepared all this, enough to deal with the preparation of a million troops, if the Hong Dynasty sends a large army here, as long as I break the Yellow River dam! Let them have no return! ”

"So, some years?" Azusa got to the point. "That's fine, you know, after so long, your gunpowder should have been dead."

"No way! Those are powder kegs made of iron sheets, it is impossible to enter the water, I have arranged it a long time ago, it is seamless! ”

"But gunpowder has an expiration date, you can light it and try it, if you can light it, you have my surname ......"

Although Zi You's words were a bit far-fetched and difficult to understand, Xie Mu still heard what he meant from Zi You's confident expression.

He seemed to be completely convinced that the gunpowder would not have any effect at all, which made Xie Mu hesitate, holding the torch and staring blankly at the line of fire that went deep into the ground under his feet.

"No...... It is absolutely impossible, everything I have prepared cannot end without a problem like this! ”

"Then you're going to try?" Ziyou looked at Xie Mu's behavior without worry. "Nothing worked on the methods you came up with. It's not that no one thought of it, and it's not that no one cracked it, how can those places where the Yellow River embankment is so life-threatening be easily destroyed......"

"And you can only live in your own dreams......"

Xie Mu didn't speak, his throat was a little dry, and he ...... under Ziyou's words Brought the torch closer to the line of fire...... Then there was a thud, and the line of fire was under the terror of the bandits...... lit.

There are a few bandits who are timid and run away.

And Ziyou looked at all this with a frown.

Until the line of fire disappeared from the ground and burned underground.

Xie Mu and a few bandits who stayed here stood still, waiting for the disaster that might happen.

…… It's just that there is no disaster.

It even felt like the line of fire was hidden underground. and it has been extinguished.

One minute, two minutes, five minutes passed, the embankment was calm, and the water of the Yellow River was ...... Continue to flow in the same direction...... Nothing happened.

Zi You breathed a sigh of relief, it looked like he was almost blind, and Xie Mu couldn't believe that his bare hands went under the ground, with his fingers, with his fingernails. Digging something.

"It can't be!" Xie Mu shouted, continued to dig, and at some point, dug out the first tin keg. The crazy Xie Mu did not hesitate to pick up his sword and stab it into the iron keg, and then cut it open with a tear, and the gray powder in it poured down.

Xie Mu touched the powder. When I put it in my mouth and tasted it, I was stunned. "How so?"

The thief next to him also approached curiously, and learned from Xie Mu to taste the gray powder. Suddenly, his face turned pale and he fell off. "It's flour!"

"Flour is a good thing, what are you spitting ......" Ziyou breathed a sigh of relief, it seemed that it was really in danger.

"Moldy ......"

"Okay......"

……

The barrel that was supposed to be gunpowder turned into a flour bucket, which made the crazy Xie Mu also wilt, and he lay on the ground for a long time and couldn't get up. "How can this be?"

"It's impossible, but Uncle Huang Zhongyi got the gunpowder from Selangor...... How can it be flour? ”

Zi You walked to Xie Mu's side, and at some point there was an extra sword in his hand, which hung above his Xie Mu's head, and it could fall at any time to kill him.

"Maybe your uncle didn't want you to do such a thing, or maybe it was the ghost of Selangor City, but you failed...... Xie Mu. ”

"No, no! Uncle Huang Zhongyi can't lie to me, and it is impossible for the Selangor side to know, otherwise he wouldn't be so frightened by me that he wouldn't dare to attack Jiuli Mountain! ”

"Xie Mu, you are wrong, Selangor City does not dare to touch you, not because you can break the Yellow River embankment, but because your existence can ensure their safety."

"What do you mean?" Xie Mu raised his head and looked up at Ziyou, the figure looked extremely tall.

"The world is uncertain, the princes are rising, every local warlord is expanding their strength, even if you don't break the Yellow River embankment, this Central Plains will no longer be in peace, because of your existence, Selangor City can have enough excuses to expand its strength and face the coming storm...... So you're just being taken advantage of, and you're still too young and frivolous...... It's just too impetuous......"

"Hehehe......" Xie Mu smirked, with despair in his eyes. Is that so...... I see, Azusa ...... You are indeed a person to admire! ”

"But I'm not defeated at your hands yet!" Xie Mu looked at Ziyou's hanging long sword and said with a smile. "At least I wasn't killed by you!"

Speaking of this, Xie Mu grabbed the blade of the long sword under Ziyou's slightly changed expression, and the two palms of his hands were cut with blood by the blades, but Xie Mu didn't care about this, and pulled hard suddenly!

Let the long sword plunge into his chest.

"Suicide......" Ziyou's face softened. You deceived other people, and now...... Are you still deceiving yourself......"

"Maybe......" The corners of Xie Mu's mouth, blood flowed out, and he said miserably. Azusa ...... You're really not the Azusa I knew before......"

"Promise me......" Xie Mu's eyelids drooped. For the sake of us all descendants of the Black Flag Army...... Promise me ......"

"Must ...... Defeat Luo Yuan...... ...... by all means."

"I believe that the person who can beat me will definitely be able to defeat that person......"

Ziyou was speechless and didn't answer, until Xie Mu said all this and lowered his head.

Ziyou took out a letter from her bosom...... Lost in front of Xie Mu, under Xie Mu's half-closed eyes.

With the wind spread out.

It's just that his eyes are dim, and he may no longer be able to see the contents of the letter.

To my son...... Xie Mu...... (To be continued.) )
