Chapter 107: Three Swords is the Return
Chu Xiangyu outside had been listening to the conversation between the two, and couldn't help but speak at this moment: "Regarding the method of double rest in Buddhism, it has been recorded in some ancient books, although the subordinates can't say why, but the other party should want to marry Gongzi as a Taoist couple." ”
Su Xiaoqi was stunned and said, "I see." ”
After a long time, he said: "It's good that I didn't promise to come down just now." ”
Chu Xiangyu was stunned for a moment, no matter what else the woman just now, just her appearance is rare in the world, and men look at women by their appearance, don't they all judge people by their appearance? But she was quickly relieved, the seventh prince should be because of that Yun girl.
Thinking of that Yun girl, she couldn't help but feel sad for Su Xiaoqi, about Miss Yun's departure, as the steward of Tianji Pavilion, she knew something, the difference between the seventh prince and that Yun girl, in fact, in some ways, is like life and death parting, because in this life, it may be difficult for each other to see each other again.
It's just that this matter is like a thorn in the heart of the seventh prince, so no one will mention it.
As soon as she thought of this, she didn't dare to say anything more.
After a short silence, Su Xiaoqi opened his mouth and asked, "How much do you know about Qi Chaoshan?"
Chu Xiangyu pondered slightly, and then replied: "Qi Chaoshan has always been the focus of Tianji Pavilion's monitoring, according to common sense, everything should be recorded, but Qi Chaoshan's side is not responsible for his subordinates, so his subordinates can't give Gongzi a detailed answer now." ”
Su Xiaoqi said again: "After I go back, I will discuss it with the Pavilion Master in person." ”
Chu Xiangyu asked casually, "Childe is ready to make a move against Chaoshan?"
Su Xiaoqi coughed before saying, "Otherwise, wouldn't my sins be in vain?"
Chu Xiangyu didn't say much, she didn't know much about the matter of Qi Chaoshan, so how to act, she still had to wait to meet the pavilion master before she could make a decision.
Su Xiaoqi unfolded the couplet and said in a low voice: "Before that, let's go home and have a look." After the New Year, it's time to settle old scores. ”
......
In the entire northern part of the Sumeru Kingdom, soon everyone knew that there was a black-armored cavalry army that was marching north from the south and running rampant.
Although the number of this army is not large, only 800 people, but along the way, there has been no news that this army has been blocked.
Soon there were rumors that this army was the famous Zhaoshen Army of the Chinese Empire, and this time it appeared in the territory of Sumeru out of thin air, in order to protect a very important person who returned to the north, but who the person to protect was, there was no clear statement for a while, but various speculations have emerged in endlessly.
The news soon reached the city of Snowfall in the south, and a holy decree came from the south, telling all the generals along the way, no matter what the cost, to stop the group.
Aries City, two people who know each other from abroad, are sitting on the second floor of a restaurant drinking at the moment, and the topic they are talking about is the Zhaoshen army, and the voice is very loud and unscrupulous.
I only heard one of them say loudly: "If you want me to say, this army is not so bluffing, the reason why it can be so arrogant and arrogant is nothing more than what they encountered, it was just a group of lounge rice bags, do you think these people dare to come to our Cloud City?"
The other frowned and said, "Why don't you dare?"
This person's face was full of pride, and his face was already Rong Yan, "Our Yunshang City is not only guarded by General Gu himself, but also has an army of 80,000 under General Gu, if these people dare to come, they will definitely be buried outside the South City Gate." In my opinion, this group of people must have been frightened, quietly bypassed Aries City, and fled, otherwise why haven't they arrived until this moment, you must know that the nearest way to go from the south to the north must pass through Cloud City. ”
The other nodded, convinced.
Downstairs, an old man suddenly stood on a stool, shook his sleeves, shook out a paper fan with a bang, cleared his throat and said loudly: "Ladies and gentlemen, you must have heard about the Zhaoshen army now, but do you know who this army protects?"
This question is indeed the answer that everyone wants to know at the moment, and they can't help but raise their eyes to look at it, and someone asks loudly: "Is it possible that you know?"
The old man smiled and shook the paper fan in his hand, "It's really unfortunate, I just happen to know the little old man." ”
Voices rang out in the restaurant, "Who is it, say it quickly, say it quickly." ”
The old man snapped and closed the paper fan and began to talk, "If you want to talk about this person, you have to start with this Aries City." ”
At this moment, everyone frowned, and their curiosity was even greater, even some disapproving drinkers raised their eyes at this moment.
The old man saw that success had attracted everyone's attention, so he continued: "If you want to tell the identity of this person, you have to tell a story first." A few months ago, a young man came to Aries City, who was young and not as weak as the crown, but he found the president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce and wrote a letter of war. ”
In fact, many people in Aries City know about this matter, although that battle was just a glimpse, but since then, the famous elder has not returned, but what does this matter have to do with the sudden appearance of the Zhaoshen army?
The old man beckoned, and a little girl ran out, carrying a large white bowl.
The old man smiled and said, "Little Lao'er is old, and his mouth is dry when he says a few words, and I hope you will reward you with two wine dollars to quench your thirst." ”
All drinkers are surprised by this, this is actually a storyteller's routine, a means of making a living, but how much you can earn depends on fate and whether the story told can be fascinating.
And today's story, of course, is what everyone wants to hear, so people have donated generously.
Looking at the big white bowl that was getting fuller and fuller, the old man's eyes were crooked, and the folding fan in his hand was unfolded again, and he began to tell the story about the battle that was thousands of miles away, and some of the details were actually told to him, plus his storytelling skills, so that everyone felt as if they were in the scene, as if they had seen the battle with their own eyes.
can talk for a long time, only talking about how wonderful this battle is and what the final victory and defeat is, but he didn't say the identity of the mysterious boy.
But everyone can already guess that this time the Huaxia Empire's Zhaoshen Army appeared out of thin air, and it was the mysterious boy who was protecting.
At this time, there was a sudden chaotic sound outside, and someone shouted loudly: "That Zhaoshen army has come to our Aries City." ”
Everyone was stunned, and then they got up and squeezed out of the restaurant, leaving the originally lively restaurant empty all of a sudden, leaving only the storyteller with a folding fan in his hand, looking embarrassed, and a big white bowl full of copper coins.
On the second floor, there were two teenagers with strange faces.
They also said that the army did not dare to come, but now it appeared in Aries City, which is a bit of a slap in the face.
Except for these four people, there were only the shopkeepers and their buddies, and their eyes were always on them.
All the drinkers have run away, and even the accounts have not been settled, how can you easily let the remaining guests run away again, anyway, today is destined to be a loss-making business, then you can get back a little bit, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is also meat.
The little girl raised her head, looked at the old man who was standing on the stool and had not yet come back to her senses, and said crisply: "Grandpa......"
The old man came back to his senses, put away the folding fan, and sighed, "It's hard to make a living these days." ”
Saying this, his hands were not idle, and he hurriedly put the copper plates he had just obtained into his pocket, not forgetting to leave two of them, which were exactly the money they had eaten earlier.
The old man pulled the little girl, "Let's go, let's go and see the excitement." ”
Upstairs, only the two teenagers were left, and it was not necessary to go, nor was it to go.
The young man who was still bragging in front of his friends before was embarrassed at the moment, and squeezed out a smile, "I really didn't expect these guys to really know the height of the sky, and they really came, let's go and see the excitement, General Gu will definitely come forward, when the time comes, there will be these people who are good-looking." ”
His friend nodded, and the two of them followed out of the restaurant.
To the south of Aries City, there are two carriages parked, and on both sides of this carriage are two straight black lines, which emit an eerie glow in the sun, which is breathtaking.
A black-armored general stepped forward, raised his head slightly, and said loudly: "The Huaxia Empire will escort the Seventh Prince back to China according to the Divine Army, and please let him go." ”
The voice is loud and spreads all over the four fields.
On the city tower, the soldiers guarding the city looked at each other one by one, not knowing what to do.
Those who watched the excitement flocked to this side, and after hearing these words, they couldn't help but stop, their faces full of disbelief.
According to the escort of the Divine Army, it turned out to be the seventh prince of the Chinese Empire.
In other words, the one who defeated the president of the Wantong Chamber of Commerce was also this seventh son?
And it is rumored that it is because of this seventh prince that the Chinese border army, which has always been mainly defensive, took the initiative to attack, and in just two days, it connected the three cities of Huayang, Qingshan, and Yishui.
They really want to see who this seventh prince is.
Above the south city gate, people began to walk in the sky, attracting the envy of many people.
Damn, it's good to be able to go to the realm of the gods, and you can even watch the drama so classy. Sure enough, it is really "if you don't enter according to God, you won't get started, and if you enter according to God, you will see God".
On the top of the city tower, a man slowly walked out, it was Gu Huating, the general of Aries City.
As the highest-ranking and most powerful defender of Aries City, he had an ugly face at the moment, and he actually knew the identity of the person escorted by the Zhaoshen Army.
Speaking of which, he had some festivals with the seventh prince of the Huaxia Empire, but he didn't want to beat the young man who was the seventh prince of the Huaxia Empire, and he didn't know that that guy could kill the famous elder with his own strength.
If it was in the past, not to mention that there was a Zhaoshen army composed of countless Zhaoshen Realm powerhouses, just if Su Xiaoqi took advantage of Aries City, he would also retreat and let him pass, but not now.
Flying Snow City had already issued an order for him to intercept the Seventh Prince of the Huaxia Empire.
Because once out of Aries City, to the north is Qingshan City, and now Qingshan City is already under the control of the Chinese Empire.
So Aries City is the last obstacle for this group of people.
If he failed to stop this seventh prince, the Flying Snow City side would blame him, and he would not be able to escape death, and he might even implicate the entire clan, so he was actually forced to come up when he walked here now.
He let out a depressed breath and said loudly: "I am Gu Huating, the general of the city guard of Aries City, please report your name." ”
Mo Zhan said indifferently: "According to the general of the Shen Army, Mo Zhan." ”
Gu Huating continued to say loudly: "General Mo, if it is usual, I will let you go over, at most, I will be scolded by someone behind my back A few words of the ancestor of the Gu family, but now it is not possible." ”
Mo Zhan didn't speak, turned the horse's head, and walked slowly backwards.
He walked to the front of Su Xiaoqi's carriage, turned the horse's head again, and said indifferently: "Break the city!"
Countless soldiers of the Black Army began to form a formation, and then rode forward, slamming towards the huge gate that had been closed.
Above the city tower, Gu Huating gave an order, and countless arrows rained down.
On the side of the black army, countless arrows also flew out, and then someone on the side rose into the air and rushed towards the city tower, and as soon as they fell on the city tower, they were like tigers entering a flock of sheep, killing all directions.
Every city has a formation defense to deal with those so-called strong, but this formation costs a lot, so it is generally only arranged on the side of the enemy country, even the strongest barrier of the Chinese Empire is built in the south, if the army composed of strong people breaks the city from the north, Wancheng may have already been taken by the Sumeru country.
And today's Aries City, in fact, is the same, although there is no strongest barrier, but on the north wall, there is indeed a formation against the strong people on the mountain, but now these people are not from the north, but from the south.
Therefore, no matter how high and thick the city wall in the south is, in front of this Zhaoshen army, it is just a mud pill.
Ma Dongping was originally just a few skin injuries, but now he has recovered a lot, but along the way, he has been in the carriage all the time, rarely showing up, and he has never said anything, thinking that it was because Su Xiaoqi said his identity as a dead soldier.
At that time, he originally thought that he would die, and Su Xiaoqi had always regarded him as a friend, he felt that before he died, even if he broke the rules of Tianji Pavilion, he should no longer hide it from his friends, but he didn't expect that he would still be alive.
So he didn't know how to face Su Xiaoqi, and he didn't know how to face his friend.
At this moment, he walked to the side of Su Xiaoqi's carriage, and said with a smile: "Seventh Prince, I, Ma Dongping, am still a dead soldier of Tianji Pavilion, so I have the responsibility to charge into battle, if I don't die this time, I will find my grandfather and find a way to remove my status as a dead soldier, and when the time comes, we will drink happily again." ”
Su Xiaoqi didn't lift the curtain, but said, "We are also friends now." ”
Ma Dongping smiled, "You gave me a sword book, I used two swords before, and there is one sword, so I will open the way for you to go north." ”
After saying this, he walked forward, his steps getting faster and faster, and the long sword in his hand began to tremble slightly.
As he rushed forward, he said loudly: "Thousands of miles of yellow sand, the sunset in the desert!"
The long sword is unsheathed, and in the southern city of Aries City, there is a touch of sunset hanging horizontally.
And at that moment, Su Xiaoqi just walked out of the carriage and looked at the sunset.
