Chapter 314: One Step First
The lives of a dozen thieves disappeared in an instant, and it was as if they had been suddenly swept away by a rushing wind, and no one could see what had just happened, like an incredible dream.
Then, seconds of shock!
The boy turned around and gave his name, and then everyone woke up from a dream, and then read the boy's name as if fearing the gods:
"Yang Ming!"
"Trainee Jiang Guo, Yang Ming!" Wei Yingnan read these words, each word was very clear, and he wanted to remember the name clearly.
Wei Yingnan stared straight at Yang Ming, with a bit of anger in his tone, and asked, "Yang Ming, since you are a student of Jiang Guo, why did you appear near the border and deliberately conceal your identity?"
Listening to Wei Yingnan's questioning, Yang Ming smiled indifferently, and the bright sunlight happened to be projected from between the treetops, falling on the young man's radiant smiling face, which was very warm and brilliant.
"Hehe, although I am a student of Jiang Country, but two years ago, I went out to practice and left Jiang Country, and now that my practice is over, I just came back to Jiang Country, and I met you near the border. As for concealing your identity? You are the wicked person who sued first, and I ask you, why didn't you hide your identity from me?"
"Yes, my lordship, no, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wei. Yang Ming bowed his head slightly in respect, and when he raised his eyes again, the young man's dark eyes suddenly brightened, like a sharp morning light, insight into the truth under the darkness.
Hearing that the other party had clarified his identity, Wei Yingnan no longer quibbled, he straightened up, looked solemn, and said, "Okay, what a Yang name, you really saw my identity." ”
Hearing Wei Yingnan admit his identity, the faces of the surrounding vendors were shocked again, and they gasped again and again. The surprise brought to the traders by the identity of the "Prince of Wei Guo" was no less than the shock brought by Yang Ming's killing of more than a dozen thieves in an instant, and the traders witnessed and heard these unprecedented "big events" one after another, making their fragile hearts almost stagnate.
"Did you hear that? Yang Ming said that the girl in men's clothes was the son of Wei! The first power in the East, Wei State!"
"Yes, the girl nodded in acknowledgement!"
"Prince of Wei Guo, why did such a big man come to our Jiang Kingdom?"
......
After his identity was revealed, Wei Yingnan's image seemed to be magnified dozens of times in an instant, but his delicate body brought people a sense of intimidation like a hundred-meter giant. Everyone cowered to the foot of the tea shed, and no longer dared to approach Wei Yingnan, even the shopkeeper was in a nervous mood, thinking repeatedly in his heart, "Was there anything wrong with the reception just now, is the tea served the best, and is the prince of Wei Guo satisfied?"
Wei Yingnan didn't have the leisure to care about these little things, his eyes always fell on Yang Ming, and suddenly Wei Yingnan was a little curious in his heart, so he asked again: "Listen to the words of those thieves and traders just now, it was you who exterminated the thieves in the dozen cottages outside the border." What enmity do those thieves have against you, and why do you have to kill them?"
Hearing this, Yang Ming replied like this, saying: "I have no grudge against them, but Jiang Guo has a grudge against them. Those thieves who were entrenched outside the borders of Jiang often robbed Jiang Guo's caravans, plundered and looted, making Jiang Guo's trade with other countries unsmooth, hindering and hindering Jiang for a long time. Moreover, it won't be long before our students from Jiang Country will leave Jiang Country and cross the border to take the 'Heavenly Selection' exam. The border is the main road leading from Jiang Guo to the outside, how can we let those thieves block our way? Therefore, the border thieves must be exterminated!"
The young man's words were conclusive, his expression was resolute, and his tone was full of hope and confidence for the future. The main road on the border of Jiang Guo is not only the road for Jiang Guo traders to do business, but also the only way for Jiang Guo students to participate in the "natural selection" exam in the future.
Looking back at Wei Yingnan, Yang Ming continued: "Prince Wei Guo, you came to Jiang Guo this time for the selection of 'Heavenly Selection', and we Jiang Guo are very grateful and very welcome. I think our king will definitely prepare a grand state banquet in the palace and treat the prince well. Previously, Childe asked me to take you to Dongwang City, and frankly speaking, it was indeed I who deliberately took the wrong way and brought you to Chaohua County, the capital of the country. However, I beg your pardon, I am also for the sake of your safety, there is an army stationed in Dongwang City, which is heavily guarded and very dangerous, if you go, Childe, if the soldiers guarding the city mistake you for a spy and shoot you with arrows, it will not be good if it hurts you. You follow this road, go straight ahead, and then one day's journey will be to Chaohua County, Chaohua County is lively and prosperous, delicious and fun, everything, but much more interesting than the Dongwang City, so ah, this Dongwang City, or not to go. ”
"Well, you really took the wrong path on purpose. Hearing Yang Ming admit that he deliberately took the wrong path, Wei Yingnan suddenly became angry and said, "Yang Ming, you are really clever and eloquent, and you dare to say that what you did was for the sake of my son." Bastard, I can go wherever I want, I don't need you to care. How dare you play with me, Wei Yingnan, I'm going to make you pay the price of blood......"
Seeing that Wei Yingnan didn't listen to good words, there were signs of anger, and then looked at the golden haired lion beside him, bared his teeth and roared, his front paws fell to the ground, opened his bloody mouth, revealing his sharp fangs, and he was about to pounce out, Yang Ming didn't want to argue with this prince of Wei, so he quickly turned around and put on a posture of "escaping", before leaving, Yang Ming said to Wei Yingnan again: " Childe, don't be angry, when you come to Chaohua County, I will toast you at the banquet and make amends, but I have to rush back to Chaohua County now and say hello to our king, so that the king can prepare the state banquet early and welcome the prince of Wei. ”
"Hehe, goodbye, Gongzi Wei, I'll go first, I'll wait for you in Chaohua County. After speaking, Yang Ming turned his head, stepped out with his front foot, and his body turned into a phantom, like a vague wind, and in an instant, the wind dispersed, and the young man disappeared without a trace.
Looking at the direction in which Yang Ming disappeared, Xun Yang immediately stepped forward and asked, "Childe, do you want to catch up?"
Wei Yingnan's little face was angry, and he asked coldly: "Where can you chase after you?"
Hearing this, Xun Yang looked bitter and did not answer, and then asked, "Childe, what should we do next? Do you want to go to Dongwang City?"
Wei Yingnan exhaled heavily, slowly retracted the anger on his face, his eyes slowly returned to calm, and after a while, he said: "What else are you going to Dongwang City? Didn't you hear what Yang Ming said before leaving? He wants to go back and tell King Jiang! Do you think he really asked King Jiang to prepare a state banquet?"
"Yang Ming will definitely tell King Jiang the news that I have come to Jiang Country this time, as well as my plan to go to Dongwang City to inquire about Jiang Guo's army. After King Jiang learned about this, he would inevitably take measures to deal with it, and there was no point in going to Dongwang City again. Wei Yingnan calmly analyzed, "Now that my whereabouts have been exposed, then Ben Gongzi doesn't need to hide it anymore." Let the soldiers change into armor, raise the lion banner of our Great Wei State, and march towards Chaohua County. ”
"Yes. Xun Yang immediately received the order, and then asked: "Childe, I think General Guo Chuan should have already arrived in Chaohua County, should we send someone to Chaohua County first, and inform General Guo Chuan, so that he can send troops out of the city to meet us." ”
Hearing this, Wei Yingnan shook his head lightly, smiled coldly, and said: "Hmph, Yang Ming goes back to Chaohua County, the entire Chaohua County people will know that this son has come to Jiang Kingdom, and do you still need us to send someone to inform Guo Chuan again? After Guo Chuan heard the news, he knew that my identity had been exposed, and he would definitely go out of the city to find us." ”
"What Childe said is very true. Xun Yang hurriedly nodded in response.
In accordance with Wei Yingnan's order, a group of Wei soldiers took out armor and weapons from the bags they carried, changed them all into heavy armor, and then held high the lion flag, escorted Wei Yingnan's carriage, and marched towards Huajun, the national capital.
Heavy footsteps can be heard clearly from a distance of 100 meters!
......
Jiang Guoguo, Chaohua County, post house.
The day before yesterday, Guo Chuan, the general of Wei Wuwei, led the Wei army, 20 chariots, more than 100 cavalry, and 3,000 heavy armored infantry to Chaohua County.
In the past two days, Jiang Guo ordered martial law in the whole city, and at the same time, Dazai Chen Ping hurriedly mobilized the city guards to increase the guards at the city gates. From the day the Wei soldiers were stationed, the entire Chaohua County entered a tense state of preparation for war.
King Jiang and all the palace ministers, even the Japanese court, were speculating about what the intention of Wei sent such a large army. Yesterday, King Jiang sent out three invitations in a row, wanting to hold a banquet in the palace to catch the wind and wash the dust for General Guo Chuan, but Guo Chuan refused all of them. What's even more strange is that since he lived in the post house the day before yesterday, Guo Chuan closed the door tightly, refused to see guests, and at the same time, ordered the guards to strengthen their vigilance, and the entire post house was heavily guarded, and not even a fly could fly in.
Such a strange move aggravated the suspicion of Jiang Guo's subjects, and everyone was discussing, what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd of this Wei people?
Guo Chuan stood by the window, looking at the high sky, but his solemn face was covered with gloomy clouds, sighed softly, and then said to himself: "Hey, son, where have you been?"
Because Wei Yingnan did not come to Chaohua County for a long time, before receiving a new order from Gongzi, Guo Chuan could only not go out of the gate, standing still, and waiting for the arrival of Gongzi Wei Yingnan.
At this time, Guo Chuan's eyes suddenly sharpened, his pupils shrank slightly, and above the high sky, under the floating clouds, there seemed to be something weird floating......
"Hey, strange, there seems to be a person in the sky......"
