Chapter 22 The Battle of Tongues
At night, it is extremely deep, and the sky filled with thick ink does not see a trace of starlight!
Ye Gucheng's heart seemed to be shrouded in a haze with the night.
This negotiation is really not easy!
At dinner, he saw Zhang Yueli, although the other party looked the same, but quietly warned when he passed by, and now, there are heavily guarded guards at the door, and he is indeed on guard against himself.
Behavior determines mentality, obviously, Zhang Tao doesn't want to form an alliance with him!
"Lonely City, why don't you sleep yet?" Xuanyuan Xiu was lying in the futon, staring at the isolated back full of doubts, in the past, the other party had already been lying on the bed and hugging himself and sleeping.
Hearing this, Ye Gucheng slowly turned around, staring at the starry eyes that were brighter than the starlight, and suddenly felt a calm in his heart!
Yes, what am I anxious about? I think I'm a modern business elite, can't I still handle these turtles?
The soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, and who am I afraid of? Immediately, he smiled dumbly and walked quickly to the bed. "Xiu'er, sleep!"
The morning light dispelled the darkness, and when the first rays of light fell on the earth, everything was revived!
"Ye Gongzi, Miss Xuanyuan, the head of the regiment is invited, please come with me. ”
Here it comes!
Ye Gucheng glanced at the herald silently, as if he wanted to see the clue from it, but the other party had no waves, and he couldn't see the good or bad at all, so he immediately said: "So, it's hard work." ”
The conference hall is still yesterday's handsome tent, the only difference is that the empty Taishi chair is full of people, old and young, and Zhang Yueli's sister and brother are also among them.
It's beautiful!
What an aura woman!
Everyone lost their minds for a while because of Xuanyuan Xiu's appearance, Zhang Tianci was even more unbearable, his eyes were about to fall to the ground, if it weren't for the clan relatives and senior generals all here, he really wanted to run over and pull the other party to sit beside him.
"I'm sorry, Ye Gongzi, because of the suddenness of the incident, I didn't have time to get ready to sit down, I hope you will forgive me. Zhang Tao was not so much apologizing as deliberately embarrassing.
Ye Gucheng is not an idiot, how can he not see it, nor is he angry, he responded indifferently: "It's okay! Anyway, it's not the first time I've seen the aristocratic style." ”
"What do you mean by that?" a general struck first.
Ye Gucheng took a deep look at Zhang Tao, whose face was as heavy as water, and immediately, slowly turned his gaze to the person who spoke, and said without humility or arrogance: "Before coming to the noble treasure land, the patriarch of my clan told me a thousand times, the barbarian tribe Zhang Jia is the royal family of the Nansheng Continent, and pays the most attention to etiquette, so I can't wait to be rude, for this reason, the kid has always been sincerely afraid, and he admires it for fear of being rude, but he doesn't want the nobles to be this kind of behavior, the hospitality of the nobles, I have seen it!"
These words instantly moved everyone, and even Zhang Yueli, who was watching coldly, couldn't help but show a strange look in his eyes.
"Kid looking for death!"
"Slow!" Zhang Tao stopped the rampaging general in time, stared at the figure of Ao Lizhong, and said: "What Ye Gongzi said is true, our clan has indeed neglected the distinguished guests, come here, take a seat." ”
Soon, several guards carried two Taishi chairs into the tent, and quickly exited after placing them.
Ye Gucheng is not fighting for two seats, but the initiative, the most taboo in negotiations to show weakness, if the first battle is lost, the odds of winning will be greatly reduced. Judging from this game, he won!
"Ye Gongzi, I heard that you are coming to ally with us on behalf of the Xuanyuan clan, please forgive the old man for being stupid, the old man has lived in the Northern Wilderness all his life, but he has never heard of a family with the surname Xuanyuan, I don't know which tribe the nobles belong to?"
You must know that in the Northern Wasteland, the subordinate tribes have the least status, and only the weak races will become subordinates!
After a few months of life, Ye Gucheng is no longer the little hairy man he was at the beginning, and he is even more prepared for homework, and said with a dumb smile: "It seems that the old gentleman has really stayed in the Northern Wasteland for too long, and he doesn't know anything about the situation in the Nansheng Continent, and he doesn't even know the Xuanyuan clan!"
"Please advise me as well. "How could the old man not be able to hear the sarcasm in the other party's words, but it was just not good.
"The Nansheng Continent experienced several generations of dynasty decline, the Li clan destroyed the Ji clan, and the Zhang clan destroyed the Li clan, and then was wiped out by the Xuanyuan clan, which had the strongest corps in the entire Nansheng Continent. Ye Gucheng successfully saw the shock in everyone's eyes, and continued quietly: "Although the back has declined, it is because of the betrayal and plot of the Tuoba clan! But even so, he still fought a bloody way from south to north, and after entering the northern wilderness, he was attacked by tens of thousands of horses of the Montenegrin clan, and still used a tired army to defeat a hundred, killed and wounded more than 2,000 people, and killed tens of thousands of horses of the Montenegrin clan. ”
The Xuanyuan clan is actually the royal family of the Nansheng Continent?
Thinking of this, everyone was shocked.
Zhang Tianci couldn't help pursing his lips, and whispered to himself: "How do I sound like I'm bragging, how can there be such a powerful army!"
Zhang Yueli naturally heard her brother's muttering, but she didn't speak, and the corners of her mouth unconsciously hooked up a trace of arc.
Zhang Tao did doubt the moisture in Ye Gucheng's words, but he also knew that the Black Mountain Clan had suffered heavy casualties and greatly reduced its prestige, could it be that it was really the Xuanyuan Clan's injuries, if this was the case, this family was too powerful, if it was really able to form an alliance with such a powerful family, not to mention dominating the Northern Wilderness, at least it was enough to deter various tribes.
"If the Xuanyuan people are really so powerful, why haven't I heard of the noble name? Besides, if the nobles are really so powerful, they can completely expand their territory on their own, so why should they ally with us?" The one who spoke was a middle-aged general, and as a military general, he naturally knew something about the forces of various clans.
"Actually, it's not that our clan is unknown, it's that our clan has long been tired of the life of killing! Our clan has defended the Traces of the Sky and set up a village according to the Angry Sea and the Demon Beast Forest, and has lived a peaceful life and has no quarrel with the world, but something has happened recently, which has made the clan uneasy! Moreover, I am worried that not only my clan, but the entire continent has fallen into a crisis. ”
"What do Ye Gongzi mean by what he said?" Zhang Tao couldn't help but be shocked.
"I don't know if you know the origin of the Warcraft Forest?" Ye Gucheng wants this effect, as a modern person, he is not superstitious, for rumors, he has always been resigned, of course, for the ancients, believe in the gods, naturally also believe in some false legends.
"Could it be that Ye Gongzi refers to something strange in the Demon Beast Forest?" The old barbarian clan's expression changed greatly, and he even spoke with trembling.
"That's good!" Ye Gucheng pretended to be full of fear, and with a sad face, he told what he had seen and heard in the Warcraft Forest recently, and Xuanyuan Xiu echoed it, making the atmosphere extremely weird.
I don't know how long it took before Zhang Tao said in a deep voice: "What Ye Gongzi means is that the things in the Warcraft Forest are very likely to come back and run rampant on this continent?"
Zhang Tao's words successfully ignited the strange atmosphere to the highest point, and the old people present exchanged words and discussions, while the young people were unimpressed, obviously, they did not believe in the ancient rumors passed down from generation to generation.
"Although I can't be sure that it will happen, but it is always right to be prepared, and the area around the Warcraft Forest will definitely not be able to continue to stay, so my clan decided to move the clan to find another place to live. For this alliance, Ye Gucheng is becoming more and more confident! He has already seen fear in everyone's expressions, as long as he is afraid, he will definitely not be satisfied with the status quo, which is exactly what he needs!
"Where do the nobles want to move?" Zhang Tao was very curious about this, if it was really a comeback of demonic beasts and demons were rampant, how could there be a place for this continent to settle down?
"Strange Stone Forest. ”
"Strange Stone Forest?" Zhang Tao's eyes widened as if he had seen a ghost, although the geographical location was unique, the area was huge, and it was easy to defend and difficult to attack, but that place was not suitable for living.
"It's the Stone Forest. Ye Gucheng didn't seem to see everyone's faces, and talked eloquently about his future construction plan for the Strange Stone Forest, and also explained why he didn't want to expand the territory and only wanted the alliance.
Yes, owning an impregnable city is more valuable than owning the territory of Wanli Pingchuan.
If the strange events in the Warcraft Forest set off waves in everyone's hearts, then the shock caused by these words was even more unprecedented.
Zhang Tao couldn't help but stand up and said, "Ye Gongzi wants to build a city in the Northern Wasteland?
"How is it impossible?" Ye Gucheng slowly explained: "We can completely share resources, the nobles have blacksmiths, carpenters and other talents, our clan has stonemasons, plus the human resources of our two clans, as long as we plan carefully, it is not impossible to complete." ”
"Ye Gongzi Mo laughed, how can a city be completed by us, even if there are stonemasons, it cannot be completed without architectural scholars and manufacturing scholars, and architectural scholars and manufacturing scholars are only a handful of the entire Nansheng Continent, and the northern wasteland cannot exist. A family elder spoke bluntly and broke everyone's illusions.
"If I tell you that I am an architect and a manufacturing scholar myself, would you believe it?" Ye Gucheng is not a big man, his uncle is an expert in architecture, he has also followed the study, and he has participated in the construction of his own building in his hometown, a city formed by a wall, in addition to requiring more manpower and time, the difficulty is far less than that of modern building construction, as for the tools, it is even simpler.
"Are you an architectural scholar, or a manufacturing scholar?" At this moment, the elder of the Zhang family couldn't help but stand up.
"I'm still a healer, and Xiu'er's wind and cold are the ones I cured. Ye Gucheng seems to have not thrown off enough, and with another ***, he needs more aura to increase his chances of winning.
"What? You can actually cure the wind and cold? This is something that the most powerful healer in the entire Nansheng Continent can't do!"
I have to say that the impact of Ye Gucheng's blockbusters one after another on the crowd is indeed very strong, not only Zhang Tianci is demented, but even Zhang Yueli's phoenix eyes are also brilliant.
Zhang Tao was suddenly very jealous of the Xuanyuan clan, how could such a top talent be owned by other clans! His expression moved, and he said slowly: "Where does Ye Gongzi come from, and where is his teacher? It seems that he is not from the Xuanyuan clan. ”
Ye Gucheng naturally guessed the other party's thoughts, and did not pierce them, and said calmly: "I am indeed not from the Xuanyuan clan, which is strange to say, in fact, I don't know where I came from, but I woke up in the Warcraft Forest and happened to be rescued by Xuanyuan Xiu." ”
In fact, Ye Gucheng wanted to make it more bizarre, he couldn't wait to say that he was from the sky and was an immortal, but he was afraid that if he said this, he wouldn't believe it, let alone these people, and besides, immortals can do spells, in case these guys really let themselves perform spells, they must not be blinded.
Zhang Yueli frowned slightly, Ye Gucheng obviously told her that he was from the Nansheng Continent, why did he become a Warcraft Forest now? This person, which sentence is true and which sentence is false?
"Lonely City is right, I did save him in the Warcraft Forest, and he is very powerful, he can cook a lot of delicious things, and also taught us fishing skills, at the beginning, many people in our village were infected with the cold, and they all felt that they would definitely die, and he saved us. Xuanyuan Xiu felt very proud, she liked the eyes of everyone worshipping Ye Gucheng, as if she was even happier than worshipping her.
"Sister, you say, that straw bag shouldn't really be a god, right?" Zhang Tianci looked at Ye Gucheng blankly, and couldn't help but swallow his saliva secretly.
Immortal!
I think it's almost the same!
Zhang Yueli didn't believe that Ye Gucheng was a god, and the gods would not be as weak as the other party, she hadn't forgotten that when she slashed with a sword, the other party was scared half to death, but she still wouldn't break it, after all, she also hoped to reach an alliance.
