Chapter 429: The Four Dharma Protectors

One of them, a white-faced man straightened his clothes when he heard this, stood up and came to me, swept his eyes and asked, "You are the Bai Xiaoyi from Luoyan Town?" ”

I stared at him, did not answer, and said in a deep voice, "Which of you is the commander?" ”

The white-faced man was stunned, and glanced at the three people behind him, who were already dressed and sat on the side, before telling me: "In Xia Shigu, he is the commander of the coalition army. ”

Surname Shi?

I frowned, a little surprised, "Could it be that the four of you are all surnamed Shi?" ”

The man nodded, in acknowledgement.

It seems that the four protectors under his hands have been shaved, so it must be regarded as a monk in his hands, but the beautiful scene in the room just now, the contrast, really made me a little unacceptable for a while.

But these four people seemed to have become accustomed to this, and their attention was still on the corpse on the ground, and I came to my senses, looked at the man in front of me, and said, "The enemy leader is dead, do you still want to continue the siege?"

The faces of the four changed suddenly, they glanced at each other, and did not give them a chance to speak, I then said: "I came this time to convey to you the words of General Wu Jiyun, the vanguard general of the Wushan Expedition to the Northern Army, that the people choose the Ming monarch and the ministers, and the birds choose good trees and perch, the four protectors seem to be menacing, but in fact they are a group of straw bales, and in his eyes they are not even a rabble, but now they are in the process of employing people, and the new Wu Mountain Lord does not listen to the opinions of his subordinates and sticks to the southwest of the wilderness, resulting in the army not being able to make a living, and General Wu can't see that the low soldiers are there for no reason. Therefore, the special 50,000 elites took advantage of the siege of the city to rebel out of Wushan, set up their own portal, and expanded the new forces with Shuofang City as the main camp, but the monofilament does not form a line, and the lonely tree does not become a forest, and it coincides with the chaos in the world, everyone can protect themselves for safety, but the trip of the four protectors of the Dharma is already famous in the ancient road, even if it attracts 300,000 coalition troops, it is only a temporary momentum, and it is just to gain some prestige in front of the Buddha-faced Venerable, and then seek a foothold. ”

Speaking of this, I paused for a moment, and saw that the faces of the four people were like boiling pots, if it weren't for the black sword in my hand and the corpse on the ground, it is estimated that I would have been broken into thousands of pieces by this time.

"But even so, if there is no hair in the skin, will it be attached?" I cleared my throat and continued: "Looking at the entire ancient road catastrophe, although the betrayal of the lord has happened from time to time, but after the betrayal, there are only four of you who gather a large army to kill the master, Shuofang City is only broken today and tomorrow night, the city is broken, and the many benefits promised by the four of you to these horses will also come to naught, and then provoke the anger of the heavens and people, and even the people around you turn against each other. ”

I relied on my memory to repeat the complete meaning of Wu Jiyun's words to me, after speaking, I felt that several cold eyes fell on me, but I was not afraid, face it directly, and said lightly: "Although General Wu Jiyun is invincible in marching and fighting, but he has always had little experience in managing a huge city, I heard that the four Dharma protectors have been following the Buddha-faced Venerable for many years, and their subordinates are in charge of the city quite a lot, and they also have rich experience, so I specially invite the four to be the chief soldiers of the four cities and take charge of Shuofang City together, I don't know what you think?" ”

The four of them looked at each other, and then Shi Gu looked at me suspiciously and asked, "Are you about to break the city, and you have come to find someone to govern the city?" ”

I nodded, and then said coldly: "Of course, if the four adults have any other plans, General Wu will not be embarrassed, but on the side of the couch, how can others be allowed to sleep soundly, today the four of you can gather an army of 300,000 to attack the Buddha-faced Venerable, then tomorrow it is difficult to guarantee that you will summon another 50 An army to raid Shuofang City, so with the current situation, either friends or enemies, when we take Shuofang City, it is not too late to clean up you snakes, ants and rats." ”

"With your little strength?"

A black-faced man behind him suddenly became angry, stared at him with red eyes, and said with fire: "With your 50,000 people, you want to destroy my 300,000 army?" Then you might as well let him Wu Jiyun try it and see if he eats us first, or if he is broken by the iron gate first! ”

I smiled coldly: "In the past Xilingdu battle, you surrounded and suppressed General Wu with ten times the force, not only was he broke through, but also almost directly ended your Chinese army's big tent, this time General Wu led more than 50,000 elites, full of equipment, even if you take Shuofang City, and then destroy your straw bale waste, what is the difficulty?" ”

The black-faced man's body suddenly burst out with a chilling murderous aura, and the momentum was pervasive, stirring all the utensils in the room to fly, and I snorted coldly when I saw the situation, instantly urging the black sword wind to the extreme.

The Twelve Hate Sword Technique, which had not been used for a long time, reappeared, and the accumulated soul power suddenly exploded, and the panicked sword wind was like a black storm extending from hell, covering the entire room tightly.

The sword wind is just a flash, I don't have enough soul power to support it for too long, just have a deterrent effect.

When I was waiting to regain my composure, the black-faced man was standing in the corner, looking at me with a frightened face and saying, "You, you are a sword demon......"

I shook my head, motioned for him not to continue, and then turned my head to look at Shi Gu, and saw that his eyes were also full of surprise, and he looked at me deeply and said, "No wonder you can kill the enemy general so easily, it seems that this Shuofang City is really a treasure for you." ”

"Still."

Shi Gu's words changed: "Although the command of this 300,000 army is mine, but it is really calculated, it is composed of a total of ten teams, and I have promised them before this, and after talking to His Holiness, one person will be divided into one city and kept as a reward, even if I agree to your conditions today, the four brothers have a place to support, but let the other ten generals return in vain, I am afraid that they will not be able to convince the people, and then mutiny in this army, will not the gains outweigh the losses?" ”

I looked at Shigu with a smile: "Do you know what I'm going to do?" ”

Shi Gu nodded noncommittally: "I know, you want to preserve your strength and let our people be cannon fodder, right?" ”

I smiled: "It's their people." ”

Shi Gu took a deep breath, turned his head to look at the three people behind him, the four of them looked at each other, just a short time, they reached a tacit understanding in silence, and then looked at me and said: "Words are unfounded, seeing is believing, I will personally go to the front line to see if the war is really as you said." ”

I nodded and turned to leave.

The two of them stood on the boat when I came, and set off towards the army against the current, and halfway through, Shi Gu looked at me suspiciously: "The person that the Sword Demon has been looking for in the sky is you, right?" ”

I smiled and didn't reply, but I saw him hesitate again: "I heard that Princess Wushan has left Wushan County, and she is now in Luoyan Town, is it true?" ”

I still smiled and didn't reply.

"Then you should always tell me, what is the meaning of your attack on Shuofang City before me?"

I turned my head to look at Shi Gu, and I found that his eyes at this moment were no longer as frivolous as they were in the building boat before, but more and more deep, like a deep pool, which made it impossible for people to penetrate his heart.

"I couldn't expose it in front of the other three before, although I haven't seen the so-called 50,000 troops in your mouth, but it's not difficult to guess, I'm afraid you don't even have half of the men, right?" Shi Gu said coldly.

"It's really helpless to follow the three junior disciples to rebel against the master, and I don't have the intention of turning against the Venerable at all, I just want to build momentum to find a way out for the three junior brothers, and then disappear from then on, and no longer interfere in any disputes on the ancient road."

I looked at Shi Gu in surprise, thought for a moment and said, "Then why do you still want to come with me?" ”

"I said, I just want to find a way out for the three junior disciples, since you are sure to take Shuofang City and provide the position of the general army of the four cities, I don't need to do this anymore to find other ways." Interpretation of the ancient road.

I stared at him, trying to see some clues on his face, but in vain I said, "Then why do you think that I will definitely be able to take Shuofang City?" ”

"Because of Wu Jiyun."

Shi Gu sighed: "This person is a natural general, if I can persuade my ten generals to hand over the 300,000 army to him and take Shuofang City, it will not be enough." ”

"Still." Shakko took a deep breath and said, "I have followed His Holiness for dozens of lifetimes, and we have long been in close communication with each other, but now I can feel that he seems to be no longer alive. ”
