Chapter 289: Challenge
The soldiers carried the half of the stone man to the tent, and Zhou Tong took a few stones and put them in the stone man's mouth. The stone man was still conscious, chewed it, and swallowed the stone.
Not to mention, after this stone man ate these stones, there was no longer a slag of rubble on the wound and began to fall. I wanted to continue to give the stone man some stones to eat so that he could fully recover, but my uncle stopped me.
"Wait a minute, Xiao Yu, this stone man doesn't know if he is friend or foe. Anyway, he has also regained his senses, so it is better to let him stay like this first, and ask him about his situation first. ”
It's still my uncle's thoughtfulness.
"Hey, what's your name, how did you get to be like this." General Zhou had already walked over to ask about the stone man.
"Zhou, General Zhou, I am the captain of the king's guard, and I saw you when you came to Shiren City." The injured stone man seemed to know Zhou Tong.
I look at this stone man, his face has been beaten to pieces, and there are constantly debris falling, no wonder Zhou Tonghui can't come out of this person.
"You know me?" Zhou Tong didn't seem to be quite sure if this stone man was the king's guard.
"General Zhou, last winter, General Zhou and Wang Wang traveled together. When it came to the tiger's den in Longtan, our king also captured a white-fronted insect with hanging eyes and gave the tiger skin to the general. ”
Zhou Tong thought about it for a while, and seemed to confirm the statement of this stone man.
"You say that, but it happened last year. It's just that at the beginning, I and the Stone Man King each brought dozens of guards, and there were so many of them that I can't remember them all. However, it is true that few people know about the tiger's skin, and it seems that you should be the captain of the king's guard. It's just that why you have become like this, and why the stone man city is blazing again, you come one by one. ”
Since it was certain that this stone man was not in danger, my uncle motioned for me to give him a stone so that he could replenish his physical strength.
"General Zhou, there is a big change in Shiren City, and the world is going to be in chaos. I came out this time to go to Qincheng to ask for help, and go back to save my king, otherwise my king will be in danger. "At this time, I was very excited when I spoke, and it seemed that there was a lot of chaos.
"What is the current situation of the Stone Man King, and how are the variables in the city, you can tell me carefully." Zhou Tong asked him to stabilize his emotions before continuing to describe what happened.
"General Zhou, it was supposed to be three days before the time to re-elect the king. My king has not met an opponent for ten years in a row, and this time the throne is also determined to win. But this afternoon, the ten stone men who had been exiled because of their failure to challenge the king appeared in the city together to challenge our king again. ”
"You may not know that every five years, we in Stone Man City have to re-elect the king through a contest, and only the strongest force can continue to be re-elected as king. In a one-on-one duel, all those who disagree can come to the stage to challenge, and the final winner is the new king. And those who fail to challenge the king will end up miserable and exiled to the bitter cold land of the far north. ”
"Originally, those exiled stone men were not qualified to come back to challenge, but I don't know why, the ten stone men who were defeated by the previous challenge king actually returned to the city at the same time to challenge my king again."
"They were doing this against the law, and the Senate was going to send soldiers to expel them. But as soon as our soldiers delivered their ten stone men, they were immediately routed. I really don't know what kind of training they have gone through in the bitter cold land of the extreme north, and now they have such a high combat effectiveness. ”
"It was because the Senate saw that the ten men had crushed the army at once, that they agreed to participate in the challenge to the throne. The ten stone man light challenges are not counted, and they are required to be executed immediately. There was no way, my king went to the arena to accept the challenge of ten of them in turn under the condition of insufficient preparation. ”
"These ten stone men fought one after another, and although my king was strong in battle, he finally lost his strength after hitting the fourth enemy. In the battle against the fifth enemy, our king was smitten. In desperation, the throne of this stone man city was taken away in this way. ”
"Originally, according to the regulations, my king would have been exiled. Although the senate supported the new king, my brothers in the guard were loyal to my king and intended to accompany him into exile. But the good times did not last long, and on this night, the ten stone men raided the Senate, killed all the senators, mobilized the army, and took control of the whole city. ”
"Seeing this, my king plans to take us out of the city to move the rescue soldiers. But before we reached the city gates, we had already been discovered by the enemy and engaged in a fierce battle. Those ten stone men are really powerful, the combat effectiveness of the guards is already very strong, and they are all excellent selected fighters, but I only took one punch and one kick, and half of my body was gone. ”
"In the melee, my brothers were killed and wounded. Because I lost half of my body, my weight was very light, and my king threw me out of the city and came out to ask for help. It's been two hours since I left Stone Man City, and I don't know what the situation is in the city. ”
After listening to the narration of this stone man, we probably know what is going on in the city. The ten exiled stone men returned to the city at the same time, which was obviously an organized revenge. However, I think that if those people are just revenge, it is indeed a bit heavy, and it is more like a big conspiracy against Stone Man City.
"Mr. Yu, what do you think about this?" Zhou Tong wanted to ask my uncle's opinion.
"General Zhou, I think this Shiren City challenge incident is obviously premeditated, those ten Shiren must have been assigned by someone, otherwise they wouldn't have gone so smoothly. And you see, after defeating the king, they killed all the senators of the Senate, and their purpose was to control the stone man city. ”
"Mr. Yu and I went together, it seems that some people don't want us to build alliances with other countries, so they sabotage it."
Hehe, who else could be the one who caused the sabotage, I'm afraid there is no one else except the Virgin.
"Mr. Yu, what do you think, we have to think of a rescue plan. If we succeed in this rescue, Stone Man City will become our staunchest ally. ”
"Okay, the enemy always likes to infiltrate us and wreak havoc, so why don't we disguise ourselves this time and blend into the city."
My uncle's words really scared me, it's okay to disguise yourself as a person in the Golden City, after all, with a mask, the embodiment is similar. But the stone man city is full of people made of stone, how good is this? But when I look at my uncle's appearance, his face is full of red light, and he seems to be confident.
"Okay, since Mr. Yu said so, I will respect your opinion." I didn't expect Zhou Tong to agree with my uncle's unobtrusive opinion.
"It's good that General Zhou agrees, then ask General Zhou to send someone to collect stones similar to those stone figures, the more the better."
