Chapter 25: Ambush!
General Yang glanced at Song Yufeng and said to the Eight Sages King and the others: "Three days ago, Song Yufeng found that the Red Maple Forest seemed to have signs of that demon beast. So Yu Tian took four disciples and went to investigate. Until now, it has not returned. β
Cheng Mubai stood at the back of everyone, crossed the shoulders of everyone in front of him, and looked at Song Yufeng.
What a coincidence!
Moreover, when he took over the task of the sect in the deacon hall before, he would not forget what Zhang Dabiao said.
Cheng Mubai felt a little impulsive to scold in his heart.
Knowing the news provided by Song Yufeng, the chief disciple still dared to go over like this, was this a forced downgrade?
When the Eight Sages King heard General Yang say this, he frowned and said, "Three days ago, this king came here when he was young. If you go all out, it only takes one day to go to the red maple forest! It will only take two days to go back and forth, and if there is no result, you will be back a long time ago!"
The Eight Sages looked at Song Yufeng.
Song Yufeng said lightly: "Eight Sage King, I did detect the signs of that demon beast, do you suspect that I am planning wrong?" Senior Sister is my fellow sect, the future sect master, I don't dare to do anything to her." Otherwise, I'm waiting to be kicked out of the sect by her in the future?"
"Moreover, I found signs of that demon beast at that time, but I came back to ask General Yang for orders to continue the investigation. It was the senior sister who insisted that they go by themselves, what can I do?"
"Orβ"
Song Yufeng met the gaze of the Eight Sage Kings, and the corners of his mouth flashed with a slight sneer: "The Eight Sage Kings are looking for me? I am also a disciple of the sect master, in order to contribute to the imperial court." The Eight Sages King treated me like this, this is to tell the major sects, as a member of the imperial court, can you control our major sects at will?"
"Bastard, when did my father say that? Don't you have to buckle your hat! My father, as an elder who has fallen into the court, as the Eight Sages of the Imperial Court, doesn't he even have the right to ask about the people related to her?" Qiqi scolded sharply.
Song Yufeng glanced at Qiqi, didn't even pay attention to it, and closed his eyes directly, as if the old monk had settled down.
The face of the Eight Sages King was extremely ugly.
Kiki was about to scold again, but was stopped by the Eight Sages King waving his hand: "Okay, Kiki." β
Kiki flicked her sleeve angrily.
The Eight Sages looked at General Yang again and said, "General Yang, did you send any soldiers to pick you up?"
General Yang said: "I also noticed that something was wrong, so I sent dogs with five hundred soldiers to take a snow sculpture early this morning to check. In the evening, there should be results. β
The Eight Sages King took a deep breath and said, "Okay then! Gather all the soldiers to the tent, and this king has brought the holy decree. The court appreciates the hard work of all the soldiers in guarding the frontier, so it is ready to reward you. β
General Yang said respectfully: "Oh, Lord Wang!"
The Eight Sages, led by a soldier, walked towards the tent first.
Kiki and Fang Qin followed.
General Yang went to beat the drum and gather the soldiers stationed there.
Huang Jiaotou, Cheng Mubai and other fourteen guards stood outside the tent.
Song Yufeng looked at the handsome tent, and a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth.
His eyes swept over Cheng Mubai, who was among the fourteen guards, and he didn't even stop for a moment.
As far as he is concerned, this kind of sixfold disciple of the Quenching Body Realm is a waste, and there is no need to target it at all.
After this time, the worst enemy was gone.
Yi Jian Tingyu Pavilion is his!
Hehe, it's wishful thinking that you want me to do it.
Before, it was just that I Song Yufeng didn't want to fight, if I wanted to fight, everything would be a joke.
Song Yufeng snorted disdainfully and turned to leave.
When Deng Ping saw Song Yufeng leaving, he gently poked Cheng Mubai next to him with his elbow, and said in a low voice: "Hey, master brother, you are not calm when you play the sword and listen to the Yuge! You say, your chief disciple won't have an accident, right?"
Since being beaten by Huang Ming before, Deng Ping has been extremely sensitive to the word "waste".
He didn't dare to be careless about the name of Cheng Mubai, who injured Huang Ming, for fear that if he said something wrong, he would usher in another fat beating from Huang Ming.
Therefore, Cheng Mubai's title was changed to "master brother".
This kind of compliment, he thought, will never anger Huang Ming again, right?
Cheng Mubai was silent and did not answer his question.
You ask me, I ask the ghost?
Deng Ping saw that Cheng Mubai did not answer, and was a little dumbfounded.
The Eight Sages King and the soldiers of the northern garrison stayed in the tent for a long time.
From time to time, the sound of laughter of the soldiers came from inside.
Cheng Mubai was a little surprised.
This Eight Sages King is not a small danger!
can endure what ordinary people can't endure, and can mingle with all the soldiers.
I hope he will not affect the situation in Vietnam.
Otherwise, you will also suffer from the fish in the pond.
At dusk, there were several chirps in the sky.
Cheng Mubai and the others followed the sound and looked over.
I saw several snow sculptures flying quickly from a distance, and landed in front of the tent in a short time.
In the handsome tent, Kiki rushed out first.
On the snow sculpture, two soldiers supported a sword and listened to the disciples of the Yuge Pavilion come down.
Three in total.
There was also a soldier holding the corpse of a female disciple of the Listening to the Rain Pavilion with a sword.
Qiqi's face suddenly turned pale, and she said in a trembling voice: "Fall into the sky!"
At this time, the Eight Sages King and all the soldiers also came out.
And the soldiers shall kneel.
The Eight Sages King hurriedly stopped and asked, "What happened?
Cheng Mubai frowned slightly.
The corpse of that female disciple was already unrecognizable, and her body was covered in blood, and she couldn't tell it at all!
When everyone heard the Eight Sages King say this, their faces changed drastically.
Yi Jian, whose right arm was cut off, heard the male disciple of Yuge say in a hoarse voice: "Lord Wang, that's not Senior Sister, that's Senior Sister Sisi, Senior Sister Sisi's whereabouts are unknown since she was separated from us. β
Kiki's legs and feet were weak, and she knelt down directly.
The Eight Sages King said in a deep voice, "Bring the others down to rest!" Invite two healers to come and heal this sword master of the Listening Rain Pavilion. β
The crowd sprang into action.
Only then did the Eight Sages King look at the male disciple and said, "You have the right and patience to tell this king, what happened?"
The male disciple took a deep breath and forcibly calmed himself down and said, "We are in ambush. Three days ago, Senior Sister led us to the place that Senior Brother Song Yufeng said to detect the traces of demon beasts. Who knew that no trace of the demon beast was detected, but instead he encountered the soldiers and horses that were ambushed there by the Great Liang Kingdom. β
The male disciple clenched his fists and gurgled, knelt down, and begged the Eight Sages King: "Lord Wang, Song Yufeng, they are all traitors! I beg Lord Wang to punish them with capital crimes! I hate myself for being incompetent, otherwise, I will definitely kill them!"
Everyone looked at each other.
General Yang said: "Zhao Liang, do you have any evidence that the ambush of the Great Liang Kingdom was arranged by Song Yufeng? If so, we can take them down immediately, escort them to the imperial city, and hand them over to your sect for disposal!"
The male disciple said excitedly: "General Yang, what evidence is needed for this? Such a coincidental thing, isn't he still a ghost?"
Seeing this, the Eight Sages King sighed and said, "This really can't be used as evidence. If there is no definite evidence, there is nothing the king can do. β
Looking at the two soldiers behind Zhao Liang, the Eight Sages King said, "What about the young general and the other soldiers?"
The soldier clenched his fists and said, "The major general and the other soldiers are still looking." β
The Eight Sages King looked at General Yang and said, "Dispatch six thousand soldiers and horses to follow this king to the Red Maple Forest!"
