Meng Shu and Nan Ye unexpectedly thought of going together, and they also wanted to win all five battles to shock the heroes. Meng You couldn't help but be excited when he heard his brother's declaration: "What my brother said is extremely true! As long as we suppress Zhurong Cave, who will dare to be the enemy of the 36 villages and 72 caves in Nanzhong? When the elder brother unifies Nanzhong, he can take advantage of the war in the Central Plains to send troops to Yizhou and become a vassal herdsman. ”

Hearing this, Jinhuan Sanjie smiled and said: "There is a great benefit to this victory, how did General Meng You forget?" ”

Meng You was puzzled: "In addition to subduing Zhurong Cave, shocking the surrounding caves, and controlling the power of the transaction, what are the benefits?" ”

Dong Dana said with a smile: "The advantage is that General Meng You has a delicate beautiful sister-in-law!" As soon as these words came out, the laughter in the silver pit suddenly rang out.

The ten-day agreed period soon arrived, and at this time, countless camps had been densely set up around Zhurong Cave. There are countless cave villages in Nanzhong, the so-called 36 villages and 72 caves are just a general statement, a village or a dock fort in the Central Plains is a cave village in the south and central areas. The south of Lushui in Yizhou is the boundary of Nanzhong, and how can there be only one hundred and ten villages in southern Xinjiang, which occupies half of Yizhou?

Among these countless caves, the largest Shili is currently Meng Huo's Yinkeng Cave, and Zhurong Cave is in second place. On the surface, this competition is to test whether Meng Shu can win the heart of the thorn beauty Zhu Ronghuabei. But in fact, it is a competition between the top two caves in Nanzhong.

If Meng Huo wins in this competition, he will not only be able to hold the beauty, but also be able to subdue Zhu Rongdong and become a veritable king of the Southern Barbarians. On the contrary, if Dong Chuan of Zhurongdong wins, it means that Zhurongdong already has the capital to compete with Meng for the first cave village in Nanzhong. I'm afraid that the first and second rankings will have to be reversed.

The chiefs of each cave and village are not fools, and they can naturally figure out the doorway. People like Jinhuan Sanjie, Dong Dana and others even bet in advance to fully support Meng to win, so that they can get rewards in the future.

On the other hand, on Dong Zhen's side, there are very few supporters, and even if he has a good relationship with Dong Zhen, he only sends hundreds of troops. This is all due to the impact of the previous heads-up failures of Dong Wei and Meng Shu. Although that heads-up bought time for Zhurong Cave, it also made the caves recognize that Zhurong Cave was weak. This is a fatal shortcoming in the Nanzhong region, where the strong are respected, and almost no one is optimistic that Dong Chuan can win, even those caves that sent troops to help Dong Chuan are the same.

The reason why these caves helped Dong Shen was not to get much benefit, nor did they think that Dong Zhen could win, but they had their own plans. Some caves suffered losses in the conflict with Meng Shu, it was Dong Shen who ambushed Meng Shu to seek justice for them, Dong Shen opened his mouth to help them, and naturally he had to send troops to help, otherwise he would be ungrateful, and the troops were sent to repay Dong Shu's favor.

There are also some caves and Zhurong Cave often trade closely, Dong Shen borrowed troops from them, although they did not think that Dong Shen could win, but they did not want to offend Dong Zhen. In their opinion, as long as Meng Shu wins the test, he will marry Dong Zhen, and when the time comes, the two families will not only not turn their faces, but will form a family to unify Nanzhong. At this time, Dong Zhen was rejected, and in the future, Dong Zhen became Meng Shu's father-in-law, and the two families were merged into one and did not find a back account! It is precisely because of this consideration that these caves sent hundreds of troops. Anyway, this battle can't be fought, so why bother mobilizing the people?

It can be said that except for Zhurongdong, all the chiefs who came to watch the ceremony regarded Dong Zhen's test of Meng Huo as a passing scene, just to see the excitement.

The camps outside Zhurong Cave are all over the place, and the inside of Zhurong Cave is even more lively. Although Zhurong Cave is called Dongfu, it is not actually a cave, but a big village, Dong Chuan has been operating for many years, Zhurong Cave has been similar to a small city. As the barbarians from the caves came to watch the ceremony, the streets were already overcrowded, and all kinds of cries and cries were heard. But the most lively is the martial arts arena in Zhurong Cave.

At this time, the martial arts arena was already crowded with people, and the viewing platform closest to the school was filled with more than 100 cave masters and village masters. Although these chiefs are dressed differently and have different customs, they have one thing in common at this time, that is, they are all excitedly waiting to watch Dong Zheng's martial arts competition, which is not often seen in Nanzhong.

"It's coming! Here it comes! "There was a commotion at the entrance to the school.

"Look! That is King Meng Huo. There are also Marshal Jinhuan Sanjie and Marshal Ah Huilan. A barbarian pointed his finger and said.

"Where? Let me see! A young man tiptoed.

"Hey~ Don't squeeze it!" A middle-aged man said angrily.

"King Meng is so majestic!" A barbarian girl stared at Meng Shu with a red face, her eyes full of little stars.

The commotion of the crowd soon attracted the attention of Dong Zhen on the viewing platform, and he introduced Nan Ye who was sitting next to him: "Young dart, the bull rider is Meng Huo." ”

When Nan Ye heard this, he looked at the entrance of the school and saw a group of more than 100 people entering the school field. The first person had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a wide mouth, a beard that was not long, but even his sideburns and cheeks were like steel needles, it was Meng Shu. Nan Ye saw that he was wearing a purple and gold crown with a treasure on his head, wearing rhino leather armor, a red brocade robe, a jade lion belt around his waist, green boots with an eagle's beak on his feet, two loose swords hanging from his waist, holding a shield in his left hand, holding a big knife in his right hand, and riding a red-haired cow.

Yang Xiong was the youngest, and he couldn't help but smile and said, "This Meng Yu is really different, and he actually rode a bull into battle." "Even if others don't say it, they can all be surprised.

Nan Ye said with a smile: "The customs of Nanzhong and the Central Plains are very different, and there are many beasts and birds in the mountains. Bull riding is nothing, and elephant riding is not to be underestimated. ”

As early as when everyone came, Nan Ye had popularized knowledge to them, so Nan Ye mentioned that the elephant generals did not ask. On the contrary, Dong Zhen was surprised: "Shao Dart is really well-informed, and he actually knows elephants." That beast is not very common in my south. ”

Hua Beiqi said: "Have Daddy and Brother Wang ever seen an elephant?" ”

Dong Zhen said: "I saw it once in Yongchang in the early years, but I don't know where I got the young dart?" ”

Nan Ye said in his heart: I saw it in the zoo, but I can't tell you. said: "I have only heard of it, but I have not seen it in person." ”

Dong Yu nodded when he heard this, and then pointed behind Meng Shu and said: "The three people behind Meng Shu are also three cave masters, Jinhuan Sanjie, Dong Dana and Ah Huinan. After these three, the two are Meng You, the younger brother of Meng Huo, and the general, Busy Tooth. ”

Nan Ye looked at the five people, and heard that more than 100 cave masters and village owners behind him were also talking about Meng Huo and others, so he asked Dong Weidao: "Since Meng Huo and Jinhuan Sanjie and others are all cave masters, why do all the village owners behind him become the king and call those three marshals?" ”

Dong Yi explained: "The customs of each cave village are different, some call the cave owner the king, and some call the village owner the marshal. Meng Huo's Yinkeng Cave Shili is extremely strong, he calls himself the king, and other caves do not dare to disagree. ”
