Chapter 040: Finally met
There was a rumbling sound in the woods again, and this time it was galloping fast, unlike the small pony carriage that was walking slowly. Even the little deaf white mantis felt that someone was coming again.
Xian Hatsui hurriedly got up and dragged the horses deep into the woods, leaving a place for the incoming large army of men and horses.
Ji gradually set up a carriage with four horses in parallel, and quickly passed in front of the white mantis and Xian Chujing, although the white mantis was not very easy to make of the heavy damage to his ears, but his sharp eyes recognized Ji gradually sitting in front of him. He happily grabbed Xian Chujing's arm and said loudly: "It's General Ji!" It's General Ji! General Ji has taken the most powerful army of our Chu State to support the Golden Key City! β
Xian Chujing didn't like outsiders to stick too close, so he quietly put down the hand of the white mantis on his arm, and before he could say anything, the white mantis seemed to fall down again in an instant, and said to himself: "Actually, I don't think that demon sister is too bad." β
The white mantis's hand that had just been helped down by Xian Chujing suddenly grabbed it again, and the white mantis pulled Xian Chujing to the side to sit, Liu Wu and Mrs. Zhuang also got out of the carriage, and the four of them sat by the stream, and the white mantis began to tell stories to the four of them.
"I grew up in Lingcheng since I was a child, in fact, before Emperor Chu ascended the throne, the royal city was still called Lingcheng. I have known since I was a child that there are two most powerful nobles in the city, the Chu family and the Ni family. The Chu family has the royal family blood of the previous dynasty, the Ni family is a good person, and Ni Shanying of the Ni family has always been a great good person in the hearts of our people. There is a son of the Chu family who has outstanding martial arts, literary brilliance, and is proficient in political affairs, and he is Chu Ziyu, the emperor of Chu. There is an eldest lady in the Ni family, who is beautiful, beautiful, intellectual and kind, and is Ni Tong.
The two made a marriage contract and have always been envied and blessed by the people of Lingcheng. I once saw Miss Ni from afar, when I was still young, but eight or nine years old, and Miss Ni was only a teenager, but she was really beautiful. I only glanced at it from a distance, and I made up my mind that when I grew up, I would marry a wife as good-looking as the eldest lady.
We all thought that Emperor Chu would marry the eldest lady when he ascended the throne and make her his queen. But I didn't expect something to happen on the eve of the enthronement, and Emperor Chu brought back the princess of the Wu clan, Wei Xin, who calculated that the eldest lady's life was abnormal, and it would be a disaster for the world. Emperor Chu ordered the entire Ni clan to be exterminated.
I didn't believe that such a beautiful and kind lady would cause trouble to the world, but I didn't expect that the eldest lady really became a demon, and I went to Ni Mansion to see that the eldest lady really killed so many people.
I thought I would hate her, after all, she killed so many people, but today she was coming to the Golden Key City, no one told her how to go, she caught me, and I showed her the way. She didn't embarrass me along the way, and she didn't want to kill me or anything when she arrived. I think the eldest lady just wants justice. Although it is true that Wei Xin's prophecy is right, I think Ni Shanying should not die, and if Emperor Chu killed her father, she would definitely be sad. β
Xian Chujing only then knew that there was this reason for the appearance of this demon king, and he didn't know the whole situation, so he didn't say much, only patted the white mantis on the shoulder comfortingly.
The white mantis sighed a little and continued: "In all fairness, the eldest lady is still so good-looking when she is enchanted, but I am not as afraid of her as I imagined." β
Xian Chujing silently supported his forehead, Yan Gou's world is really just. It's not saved, it's not saved.
ββ
There has been a restlessness in the Golden Key City, Zhuang Yue returned to the inn gloomily, Xiao San, Four, Five and Six surrounded him, and Xiao Wu said with concern: "Lord Zhuang, what's wrong with you?" β
"I'm fine."
Xiao Liu chirped in his ear: "Lord Zhuang told you a good news and a bad news, which one do you want to hear first?" β
Zhuang Yue had no intention of playing games with him, and said casually: "Let's talk about good and bad together." β
"The good news is that the Demon King we've been looking for for so long has finally been found."
"What?!" When Zhuang Yue heard this, she was very excited, "Where is it?" β
"Fight with the lord at the gate of the Golden Key City."
"Let's go, let's hurry up to the city gate and meet Duan Yizhen and gather the Dai Yue Army to support the city lord!" Zhuang Yue immediately stood up and prepared to walk out the door.
was caught by Xiao Wuyi.
Xiao Liu said: "Lord Zhuang, you haven't heard the bad news yet." The bad news is that even the city lord's protector can't defeat the demon king, and now that the city is closed, we can't get out. β
Hearing this, Zhuang Yue calmed down, he thought for a moment, and said, "No, it's a critical moment, and we can't be separated from Duan Yizhen." I have a way to get out of the city, come with me. β
ββ
"One last time. Where is Chu Ziyu? β
Ni Tong was already impatient, she condensed the demonic black qi, and said to the closed city gate: "If you don't say it, I will destroy your entire city." β
"Everyone, defendβ" Jin Lun shouted weakly, lying on the ground.
With a "boom", the soldiers on the city wall suddenly felt that they had suffered a heavy blow, and then felt that the entire city wall was trembling.
Jin Lun no longer has the power to attack, he is even ready to live and die with this city wall, and when Ni Tong's second palm is split, Ni Tong hears an extremely familiar call.
"Xiao'er."
The black qi in her hand slowly calmed down, and she could feel the carriage behind her getting closer and closer to her, and the familiar, loved, and hateful aura was getting closer and closer to her.
It's Chu Ziyu.
Ignoring Jin Lun on the city wall, Ni Tong slowly turned around, and Ji gradually reined in the horse and stopped right in front of Ni Tong.
Ji gradually jumped out of the carriage and opened the curtain for Chu Ziyu, and Chu Ziyu stepped out and stood in front of Ni Tong.
"Finally met. I've been waiting for you for a long time. β
The last time we met, it was at the stake. She was tied and he was sitting. Yes, we finally met, Ni Tong thought that he would be crazy when he saw Chu Ziyu again, and he would tear him to pieces as soon as possible. But she didn't. She was very calm in her heart, and suddenly felt that this was also good, and her emotions were not affected by him.
"Wait for me to show up and kill me again?" Ni Tong raised her hand and regathered her qi, and the black demonic qi was surging around her, and it was about to take shape.
Chu Ziyu suddenly said, "Let's go to a farther place to fight." The grievances between you and me should be resolved between you and me, and do not harm the innocent. β
Ni Tong looked at Chu Ziyu coldly, and after half a sound, he responded, "Okay." β
Ji gradually looked at Ni Tong and Chu Ziyu on the side, thinking in his heart, if he looked at it carefully, it seemed that this eldest lady was the eldest lady, and the Yan Ni he saw before was another person, these two people had extremely similar faces, and when compared seriously, there were still some differences.
Seeing that Ni Tong agreed to Emperor Chu's request so easily, Ji gradually sighed in his heart, Miss, do you know that there is an ambush.
Chu Ziyu lured Ni Tong to the place where Wei Xin and the large army were ambushed. began to talk to Ni Tong according to He Weixin's plan. "Xiao'er, these days, I miss you so much."
ββ
Zhuang Yue came to the river leading to the outside of the city, because the news of the demon king's call spread throughout the city, even the boatman went home to hide, Zhuang Yue jumped on the boat first, followed by Xiao San, Four, Five and Six. Several people rowed in unison, and soon reached the other side of the river.
"Everyone be careful, let's go find Duan Yizhen."
"Okay."
sneaked around to the city gate, but there was no Ni Tong at the door. Jin Lun was so frightened that he almost failed to defend the city, so he first asked the medical officer to treat the wounded soldiers, and then gave an order, calling on the people of the city to repair the city gate together. In the end, he assembled a sound city guard, intending to help Emperor Chu a little bit.
Duan Yizhen, who was hiding behind the tree, watched the demon king leave the city gate with Emperor Chu, worried that the place where they went was very close to Dai Yuejun, and was about to follow quietly, when he suddenly felt that there was someone behind him, he immediately prepared for defense, turned around sharply, and at the same time waved his fist out, and was in the eyes of the middle six.
Xiao Liu screamed in pain, and as soon as he called out, Xiao Wu covered his mouth.
Duan Yizhen found out that the person who came was Zhuang Yue and Xiao San, Four, Five and Six. He said, "How did you come out of here?" β
Zhuang Yue said succinctly: "There is a trail here. β
Look around.
"Where's Miss Yan?"
"What about the others?"
Neither of them saw the other and asked at the same time.
Duan Yizhen said first: "I let the others retreat to the periphery. β
Zhuang Yue lowered her head and said softly, "She left with her fiancΓ©. Then he instantly changed the topic, "Let's hurry up and find them, gather the Dai Yue Army, and fight the Demon King." β
Duan Yizhen grabbed Zhuang Yue, who was about to walk forward, and said, "Lord Zhuang, no." β
"What? Why? β
Duan Yizhen's eyes saw the image of Ni Tong shooting the bow and arrows back at the soldiers on the city wall with just a quick operation of the black qi, he shook his head and said, "You haven't seen it, you can't imagine how strong the demon king is." We're not even her opponents. β
Zhuang Yue had never seen Duan Yizhen retreat without a fight, and he said incredulously: "You wouldn't have been like this before." β
"Those who fought with us before were bandits, robbers, and wicked men......"
Zhuang Yue interrupted: "The Demon King has killed so many people, isn't she evil?" β
"It's not a question of whether evil is evil or not, it's that we can fight the wicked and eliminate harm for the people, but we can't die in vain. General Ji Jian and His Majesty the Emperor of Chu are here, they have the most powerful army in our Chu State, and they don't need our small Dai Yue army at all. The most important thing is that Dai Yuejun can't go to death in vain. β
Zhuang Yue couldn't listen to it at all, he was now full of negative energy, and he especially needed an outlet to vent. "Okay, if you don't go, I'll go!"
Zhuang Yue shook his hand and broke away from Duan Yizhen, and strode forward.
"Zhuang-sama ......"
"Zhuang Yue!"
Zhuang Yue paused for a while, and said to Duan Yizhen: "Guard the Dai Yue Army for me." If I can't come back, you are Lord Duan of Dai Yuejun. β
ββ
Liu Wu suddenly felt a little out of breath in her chest, she held Mrs. Zhuang's hand and said, "I don't know what's going on in front of me." β
The white mantis is an idle master, and when he heard Liu Wu say this, he volunteered: "I feel that the tinnitus is much smaller, and I can hear my sister-in-law talking." Well, stay here and don't run around, I'll go see what's going on for you. β
