Chapter 427: Talks under the city

An imperceptible panic flashed in Bai Nanyuan's eyes, and even the sword qi condensed on his body was a little messy.

"Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are used as dogs, but you Bai Nanyuan is a wolf and not a dog, just in time for the sky to change, if you don't seize this last opportunity, I'm afraid no one will be able to help you anymore."

After finishing speaking, I held my breath and looked at Bai Nanyuan, who was in a state of embarrassment.

Bai Nanyuan's right palm holding the hilt of the sword trembled slightly, a trace of complicated expression continued to flash on his face, and the messy sword qi had turned into reality, like white snowflakes slowly rotating around his body, as if he had reached the edge of a violent struggle.

But at this critical juncture, a piercing scolding suddenly appeared above his head.

"The surname is white, is it possible that you dare to disobey the army's orders, defect to the enemy, and be that shameless villain?"

The snowflakes around Bai Nanyuan suddenly broke as he spoke, and fell in the air.

At the same time, he raised his chin slightly, swept his eyes like a sword to the city tower, and said lightly: "If I kill this son, will you really fulfill your promise and give me half of the city?" ”

Half of the city?

I couldn't help but be shocked when I heard this, and I also raised my head, and saw the general who guarded the city standing at the city wall, proudly under the city gate, and said coldly: "Ben will always speak with his words, and if he says half the city to you, he will give you half the city!" ”

Bai Nanyuan nodded slightly, but then his eyes flickered, and he suddenly spoke: "I want the western half of the city." ”

Half the West!

Don't say that it is the general of the city tower, even I heard it and secretly frightened, Shuofang City was divided into two by the ancient road Yellow River, the northern city is the residence of the poor and small merchants, but the west city is different, not only gathered the merchants and celebrities in Shuofang City, even the Fenglou including the city lord's mansion and a cadre management yamen are also included, it is no exaggeration to say that mastering the northern city is also disguised as becoming the city lord of Shuofang City.

Bai Nanyuan suddenly opened his mouth, making the face of the city tower general as cold as frost, but at the moment of the great enemy, the fifth aunt had cut him down with two knives before, and the two generals obviously caused him a lot of pressure, and his face was cloudy, but it was just a blink of an eye, and he returned to his usual words: "You fulfill your promise first, as for the matter in the north of the city, I can't be the master, and when the matter is completed, I will take you to see the city lord and let the old man make a decision." ”

Bai Nanyuan smiled, his tense body also loosened, snorted disdainfully, and said, "Then you let him come over now, when he agrees, it's not too late for me to do it again." ”

Bai Nanyuan glanced at me as he spoke, simply flicked his silver sword, and sat alone in the bow of the boat, as if he had put on a posture, if the conditions could not be negotiated today, he would not continue to work hard.

When I saw this scene, I couldn't cry or laugh for a while, and at the same time, I was also worried that Venerable Yi Buddha was currently worried about the shortage of manpower inside, and whether he would think that the snake would temporarily agree to Bai Nanyuan's conditions under the condition that the army was pressing.

But I obviously overestimated the temperament of the general who defended the city, after listening to Bai Nanyuan's words, and seeing him look leisurely and complacent, his face suddenly fell, and he looked at Bai Nanyuan coldly and said, "Are you threatening the general?" ”

Bai Nanyuan sat on the bow of the boat and gave him a blank look, but did not speak.

"Good, good!"

Seeing Bai Nanyuan's attitude, the general guarding the city laughed angrily, pointed his finger at Bai Nanyuan and sneered: "A lackey raised by Jiuquan Mansion is just a dog, and he actually dares to bark in my Shuofang City, let me tell you, His Holiness has long expected this situation, and specially ordered me that if Bai Nanyuan changes his hexagram in battle, no matter what conditions he proposes, don't agree, they will be dealt with as a collaborator, and there will be no mercy!" ”

The change in front of me was something I didn't expect, listening to the anger coming from the top of my head, and then looking at Bai Nanyuan's indifferent look, I couldn't help but ask, "Didn't you come for Jiuquan Mansion to help Venerable Buddha Face defend the city?" ”

Bai Nanyuan scoffed when he heard this: "If the Buddha-faced Venerable doesn't even have this ability, how could Jiuquan Mansion choose to cooperate with him?"

"Then you ......"

I looked at Bai Nanyuan without saying anything, but a wry smile appeared on his face, and he said with hostility: "Where does the Bai family sit in Jiuquan Mansion and how many things have they done, but in the eyes of those adults, it is always a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh. ”

I looked at him in amazement, only to realize that this proud swordsman had not only fame and fame, but also an unknown and thoughtful side.

"So you're tempted out now?" I asked, feigning calmness.

Bai Nanyuan snorted disdainfully: "I'm afraid you are more real than I see." ”

……

Under the tense Shuofang City, the situation has become twists and turns since the army pressed the border.

The two armies faced each other, watching Bai Nanyuan and I sit leisurely on the wooden boat and chat, no one spoke, but each other's hearts were entangled.

For Shuofang City, the current Bai Nanyuan is tantamount to a hedgehog biting in his mouth, swallowing is not, although the words of the general defending the city spit fire, but he will not send Bai Nanyuan, an outsider, to defend the battle, why the Buddha-faced Venerable, including the remaining four protectors, has not shown up until now I don't know very well, I only know that the two of us continue to talk like this, for the defenders of Shuofang City, it is tantamount to boiling a frog in warm water, after all, he knows in his heart, except for us people, There are nearly 300,000 troops waiting for them to fight five hundred miles away, and the further they drag, the more unknown factors will be for them, and for us, the longer the stalemate lasts, the more the coalition will overestimate our strength, and there will be many benefits for the next negotiations.

Hearing the bursts of angry scolding coming from the city tower, Bai Nanyuan and I ignored it disapprovingly, looking at his leisurely appearance, I couldn't help but laugh and said: "You are so embarrassed to embarrass the Buddha-faced Venerable in front of the two armies, aren't you afraid to return to Jiuquan Mansion, those adults will take you for blame?" ”

Bai Nanyuan pursed his lips, stroked the silver sword in his hand and said: "The Buddha-faced Venerable is gone, it is just a watchdog left here by the adults, even if I don't help them today, but I will not let you capture the first level of this Jiuquan army to enter the ancient road, if I guess correctly, the Buddha-faced Venerable has not shown up until now, it should be that he is negotiating the conditions with Jiuquan Mansion, and if the negotiation is completed, the entire city will be owned by him, if the negotiation fails, it is estimated that someone will take over the city soon to resist your attack." ”

I shook my head when I heard this: "You have overestimated the strength of Jiuquan Mansion, and you have underestimated the operation of the Buddha-faced Venerable in the ancient path for so many years. ”

I looked at Bai Nanyuan lightly and said, "Don't forget, in this Shuofang City, there is also a Fenglou with a famous ancient road. ”

Bai Nanyuan scoffed: "Then do you think that I followed the adults here so many times before, just for a Buddha-faced Venerable?" ”

Seeing my surprise, Bai Nanyuan smiled proudly: "Let me tell you this, the Buddha-faced Venerable is now in name only, and the only four remaining protectors under his command have also surrendered to the Jiuquan Mansion, and the owner of the Fenglou has already reached an agreement with the Ninth Evil Monk, once the Buddha-faced Venerable does not take control, he will come forward to remove the Venerable, take charge of Shuofang City, open the gate of the ancient road for the Jiuquan Mansion, and provide a lot of convenience for the Jiuquan Mansion to enter the ancient road, adding firewood and fire." ”

When I heard this, my heart was shocked, "The Ninth Evil Monk you are talking about, but the current Lord of the Nine Springs Mansion?" ”

Bai Nanyuan nodded, "Exactly." ”

I took a long breath, looked at Bai Nanyuan and said, "What are the conditions?" ”

"What about the conditions......" Bai Nanyuan glanced at me meaningfully, the corners of his mouth hooked upward, and he smiled strangely: "Of course it's a woman." ”

How could I not understand the meaning of his words, and I was immediately furious, but at this time, from Shuofang City, there was a sound of military drums beating, and the two of them raised their heads together, and found that the previous general who defended the city had already been replaced at some point, and the flags with the word "swastika" on the city wall fell down in sight, and were replaced by black flags printed with the scarlet word "聻", covering the sky and the sun, and an extremely gloomy ghost aura suddenly rushed to the face.
