"Who knows, maybe you're the one who caught it!"

With a chuckle, the fortune teller Cai Yan pretended to be raised his head to look at Zhou Yue, the two delicate mustaches swayed from side to side like yarn hat wings, very proud, really weird.

"Is it the golden beetle?" Zhou Yue couldn't help but laugh and said that the mood that had been depressed before dissipated instantly at this moment.

"Less nonsense, looking at your leisurely appearance, then you must not know, I have two good news, two bad news, and one news that I don't know if it's good news or bad news, which one do you want to listen to first?" Cai Yan didn't pay attention to Zhou Yue's ridicule at all, but said in the tone of a fortune teller.

"It doesn't matter, as long as I see you, Sister Yan, then for me, whether it's good news or bad news, it will all become good news." Zhou Yue said with a smile, and then directly gained a white eye.

"Okay, I hope you can laugh out loud in the future, listen well, the first good news is that because we defeated the Mongol army a few days ago, in the camp of the Emperor of Man, our position has risen, so the Han Empire sent an envoy to formally discuss the establishment of trade routes with us, and also to show friendship, this envoy also led a caravan loaded with goods worth 20 million gold, and carried another 10 million gold to support our post-war reconstruction."

"And the second good news is the same as above, the Great Song Empire in the camp of the Emperor of the People also sent an envoy, as well as goods worth 20 million gold, and 10 million gold to support our post-war reconstruction free of charge."

"As for the first bad news, just late yesterday night, a total of 1,500 envoys and caravans and guards of the Han Empire were attacked by unknown enemies, and all of them have been killed one hundred and twenty miles southwest of Chishan City, and no one has survived, the news is provided by the Dragon Gate Inn, and our scouts are confirming it."

"The second piece of bad news is that almost at the same time, the fleet of the envoys of the Great Song Empire was about to arrive at the port of Linhai City, and the entire fleet capsized, now, do you want to hear the last news?"

"Say, I don't think it's too bad!"

Zhou Yue smiled bitterly, if he hadn't learned the truth about this black city sub-world from Mo Jiuxiao before, and learned that the Tang Dynasty, the Great Han, and the Great Song Empire who confronted him were all projection forces, these two bad news would indeed put him in a very embarrassing and dangerous situation, but now, although things are also very strict, at least, he doesn't have to be too entangled psychologically.

At this time, Cai Yan glanced at Zhou Yue deeply, and then said with some surprise: "Zhou Yue, what happened in the past two days, you can become so calm, this is really a very amazing thing, does this mean that your heart has finally become complete, or is it because you don't understand what kind of consequences these two things will bring to us?" If it was the second option, I would be disappointed. ”

"Okay, Sister Yan, am I so unbearable? In fact, although these two events happened very suddenly, they were not surprising to me, but what is the last news? Zhou Yue smiled helplessly.

"Well, then you listen carefully, this last news, I don't know whether it should be good news or bad news, that is, half an hour ago, the city lord of Linhai City, Deng Jiatong, reported urgently, saying that he rescued an old man from the beach, this old man claimed to be an envoy of the Great Song Empire, surnamed Fan, named Zhongyan, the word Xiwen, now, this Fan Zhongyan is in Linhai City, but Deng Jia can't distinguish the identity of this person, so he urgently reported back, asking for a decision, in other words, the urgent report came back, but he couldn't find you, where did you go?"

"What? Uh--I was just in Taibaiju, and I didn't bring a personal guard, damn it! Fan Zhongyan? It's actually Fan Zhongyan, he is the envoy of the Great Song Empire, and he hasn't died yet? And now in Linhai City? ”

Zhou Yue's expression finally changed drastically and couldn't help jumping.

"Hehe, it seems that Zhou Yue's heart is still not hot, yes, I think, that is Fan Zhongyan, it seems that this time the Great Song Empire is very sincere, and actually sent such a great Confucian, with this person, your aura of righteousness can finally be completed, huh? Why is your face so ugly, and what happened? ”

Cai Yan asked suspiciously, because Zhou Yue's expression was indeed very abnormal at this moment.

"Sister Yan, this-this is a huge conspiracy!" Zhou Yue said bitterly, it seems that this time the person who laid out the layout behind the scenes really made a bloody investment!

"There must be a conspiracy, but you're not so frightened, are you? Tell me, is there anything I don't know? Cai Yan was also cautious at this time.

"Yes-yes-" Zhou Yue didn't know how to speak for a while, because the Cai Yan he was facing now was the projection of Cai Yan in the Three Kingdoms Sub-World, so, according to what Mo Jiuxiao said, as long as it was a topic related to the Heichengzi World, these projections would be automatically blocked, which meant that they couldn't hear it at all, but in this way, many things could not be explained clearly.

According to what Mo Jiuxiao said, unless there is great power, he personally opens his eyes for these projection characters, but the consequences are immeasurable, and it may directly lead to the collapse of the projection characters, or a great change in temperament.

"What is it? Zhou Yue, are you hiding something from me? Although Cai Yan is a projection, she is so keen that she immediately perceives it.

"That's not it, it's just that I don't know what to say, Sister Yan, do you know that not long ago, I got a message that there is a powerful force that offers a reward of 3,000 chivalrous points to take my head, so I don't dare to go out of the city now!"

"Is there such a thing? Oh no, in this way, the envoys of the two empires of the Han Dynasty and the Great Song Dynasty were attacked and the whole army was annihilated, all of which had something to do with it, and Fan Zhongyan, who survived by luck, was a bait used to lure you out of the city! As long as you dare to go out of the city, I'm afraid it will be difficult to return, but if you don't go to Linhai City to escort Fan Zhongyan in person, then Old Man Fan will be killed directly, what a vicious scheme! ”

Cai Yan was also stunned, this kind of layout is too sinister, because now, Zhou Yue's forces can't and dare not offend the Han and the Song Dynasty, as a result, now that the envoys of the Han Empire are all wiped out, they will definitely make enemies of the Han Empire, maybe the Han Empire will directly send troops, so it becomes more and more obvious that Fan Zhongyan's importance, after all, they can't make enemies on both sides!

Moreover, from Zhou Yue's own point of view, this Fan Zhongyan is also very important, if such a Confucian-level Cunzi stays in the White Tiger City for a year or two, the benefits are almost unimaginable! Even Cai Yan himself can benefit a lot!

"No, Zhou Yue, we can't hesitate in this kind of thing, you must personally go to meet Fan Zhongyan, but you must bring the army, although this is the most critical point of the enemy's most vicious scheme, do you understand what I mean?"

Cai Yan is categorical.

It's just that this time, Zhou Yue really hesitated, not because she didn't believe Cai Yan, but because this time the enemy's huge layout and conspiracy were obviously arranged from a higher level, involving the level of the Heicheng sub-world, but Cai Yan couldn't know this, so her focus itself would have huge flaws.

Because any of her constructions, in this case, will be completely penetrated by the opponent, without any advantage!

Zhou Yue fell into a huge torment all of a sudden, to be honest, if this Fan Zhongyan was the real Fan Zhongyan, then he would snatch it back if he said anything, but this is just a projection of a sub-world!

Is it really worth risking his life to save him?

You know, Zhou Yue knows too well what 3,000 chivalrous points represent, it seems that in modern society, a willful local tyrant smashed 3 billion US dollars so powerfully, what kind of master can't be invited? What kind of beauty can't be pushed down?

Can he be as confident as the desert arrow god Jebe?

Even Jebe can be assassinated, can he Zhou Yue be spared?

"Are you afraid?" Cai Yan's eyes were fixed on Zhou Yue, but this made Zhou Yue's heart more and more painful, especially when he couldn't explain the truth of the whole thing at all.

"What are you afraid of? A few assassins scared you? If that's the case, how will you lead the army from now on? Do you want to be confined to this main city for the rest of your life? ”

"Sister Yan, I-"

"You make your own decisions, I won't interfere with you."

"Okay, Sister Yan, can't I be wrong? I'll personally escort Master Fan back with all his beards and tails, how about it? Zhou Yue could only smile bitterly, although Cai Yan in front of him was a projection, he still didn't want to disappoint her.

What's more, if he takes 10,000 steps back, is he really trapped in this main city for the rest of his life? He can't let the man behind the scenes just look at his jokes so proudly, damn it, don't let him find out who is behind this qiē!

"You are so wronged! Xiaoxue and Erniang have been sent out to Linhai City by me in advance, Qingming is going to the ruins of Chishan City to investigate, they are not afraid of being weak women, they are all running for your great cause, what qualifications do you have to be lazy? What qualifies as cowardice? Zhou Yue, I'm not making things difficult for you, but, I need you to know that you are never alone, if you really have any accidents, I won't let you be alone, go, be careful all the way, I will take over the affairs of the main city immediately, perhaps, the comfort we expected has come to naught. ”

"Also, Zhou Yue—"

Cai Yan hesitated for a moment, and finally said with a wry smile: "Actually, there is a secret, you probably can't think of it, I've been jealous of Claire, I don't know why, in short, every time I see her, I feel very uncomfortable, and I always have a vague feeling that she is pituring me, so for most of the past six months, I have basically deliberately used various means to isolate her from the inner circle, I know, it's not right, but I still can't stand it, can you imagine, no matter what I do, no matter how perfect I think I do, But all you can see in her is mercy, as if I did everything I did was a fool's act. ”

"But now, I have to admit that she is indeed better than me in terms of resourcefulness, I figured it out, after this matter, I will go to retreat, and if there is anything else, you can go directly to Claire!"

After Cai Yan finished speaking, he tore off the two mustaches on his face with some annoyance, and stomped on the ground twice, but at the same time, as if he had completely let go of his thoughts, he turned around and left, leaving only a stupid cruel word.

"I won't admit defeat, and if you dare to laugh at me, Zhou Yue, you will die!"

Looking at Cai Yan's distant back, Zhou Yue suddenly sighed and smiled bitterly in his heart, "Sister Yan, this is actually not that your resourcefulness is inferior to Claire, but that this is just your projection, from the Three Kingdoms sub-world to this sub-world, you have a total of 21 projections, and each projection will be weaker by one point!" The real you, but the demigod-level nine-star storage zài! As for Claire, she- wait? Claire's mercy? What does she pity? Of course, she can't be pity, she is sighing! There is no doubt that since Claire is a real body, she must have seen the real Cai Yan with her own eyes, so she has such feelings! ”

"That's right, that's right! Sister Yan is right, she actually forgot that there is such a mysterious and unfathomable capable person around her! As a real body, and it is likely to have escaped from the ancient Black City sub-world, her opinion is the most reliable! ”

Zhou Yue thought of this, but suddenly thought that Claire was now far away in Shenyang Heicheng, and the water far away could not quench his thirst, if he rushed all the way to it, then it would be no different from going directly to the port of Linhai City.

Shaking his head vigorously, Zhou Yue didn't care about anything else, jumped on the war horse, and went straight to the City Lord's Mansion, and on the way, he also ran into Qiao Celin, who was looking for him everywhere, and sure enough, there was an urgent report about Fan Zhongyan.

But at the same time, there was another surprise to him, that is, Claire actually sent him five hundred Night Elf archers, who are now waiting for his acceptance outside the City Lord's Mansion.

"Very good, very good, Qiao Celin, immediately send someone to inform Xiao Jun, let his 10,000 heavily armed wolf riders return to standby immediately, this time I will go to Linhai City in person, by the way, find a way to spread this news as quickly as possible!"

After Zhou Yue gave Qiao Celin's order, he took a deep breath, then slowed down and began to think, now, when he is facing this most dangerous and unpredictable situation, he can no longer rely on Cai Yan as he once did, and Claire, who Cai Yan recommended, is not around, so he can't mess up by himself, first of all, he must be stable!

Fan Zhongyan had to grab it back, even if it was just a projection.

Because this is related to the Great Perfection Realm of his aura of righteousness and righteousness, and also related to the relationship with the Great Song Empire.

Now that he has offended the Han Empire, he can't afford to lose this last prince power who has a positive relationship no matter what.

He still didn't believe it, under the protection of tens of thousands of troops, those assassins could still be killed?

In Zhou Yue's thoughts, the City Lord's Mansion was also in sight, but the most conspicuous thing was the side outside the City Lord's Mansion, with a full five hundred neatly arranged archers wearing dark gray cloaks and carrying black bows and arrows, there was no doubt that this should be the Night Elf archers sent by Claire.

When Zhou Yue quickly used the insight skill, there was also a burst of ecstasy in his heart, because the attributes of these night elf archers were just one word, strong, very strong!

This is simply beyond Zhou Yue's imagination.

These five hundred Night Elf archers, all of whom are level 90, are forest rangers, and their proficient skills are master-level archery, master-level daggers, and specialty-level bow dance!

Other than that, their equipment is hardly inferior to dark gold quality.

The average value of several basic naked attributes all exceeded 800 points.

Not only that, but it also has a series of powerful buffs, some of which are also proficient in spells, in short, this is not a simple team of archers, but a team, which can attack, defend, sneak attack, and pursue the special forces of the Black City era!

There are almost no troops under Zhou Yue who can completely defeat these forest rangers, and even the strongest White Tiger Knight is estimated to have heavy casualties.

And with this team of 500 forest rangers, plus tens of thousands of troops, there is really no need to be afraid of any assassins.

"My lord, at the behest of my lord, the children of the Dark Forest, report to you."

At this time, when Zhou Yue approached, a young man with a long figure and a handsome man walked out slowly, and saluted Zhou Yue elegantly.

"Your Excellency, you can call me Islam Dir directly, according to my lord's prompting, you may have some special questions that I need to answer, may I ask, my lord, have you encountered something very difficult now?"

This Islam Dir spoke in a very calm tone, although his face was extremely young, but what was revealed in his eyes was the wisdom precipitated by the passage of time, and for some reason, it actually gave Zhou Yue the feeling of an incomparably wise old man.

Of course, the most important thing is that Claire actually guessed that he would have a problem, which is indeed a little amazing, or rather, Claire has been waiting for this opportunity?

"Very well, I do have some questions, but I have a very urgent matter to deal with right now, do you know what I mean?"

"Of course, my lord, are you referring to the little problem left behind by the wise man named Beishan?" Islam Dir was still very calm and authentic, but his words made Zhou Yue like five thunderbolts, and then he immediately thought of someone.

"Deng Xiaomao? Are you talking about Deng Xiaomao? ”

"No, my lord, it's just a poor pawn, don't worry, if you agree, I hope that I can talk to you, my lord, personally, it's important, and rest assured, when our conversation is over, all the problems that bother you will no longer be a problem." Islam Dir smiled slightly, and his tone was full of confidence. The wisdom that has been precipitated, for some reason, actually gives Zhou Yue the feeling of an incomparably wise old man.

Of course, the most important thing is that Claire actually guessed that he would have a problem, which is indeed a little amazing, or rather, Claire has been waiting for this opportunity?

"Very well, I do have some questions, but I have a very urgent matter to deal with right now, do you know what I mean?"

"Of course, my lord, are you referring to the little problem left behind by the wise man named Beishan?" Islam Dir was still very calm and authentic, but his words made Zhou Yue like five thunderbolts, and then he immediately thought of someone.

"Deng Xiaomao? Are you talking about Deng Xiaomao? ”

"No, my lord, it's just a poor pawn, don't worry, if you agree, I hope that I can talk to you, my lord, personally, it's important, and rest assured, when our conversation is over, all the problems that bother you will no longer be a problem." Islam Dir smiled slightly, and his tone was full of confidence.
