Although Master You is on the battlefield, the situation is in full swing. But elsewhere, it's still a peaceful scene.

At this time, thousands of miles upstream along the Qiandu River, there is a quiet border town that is not disturbed by the smoke of gunpowder. In the side hall of the City Lord's Mansion, the City Lord was enjoying a quiet dinner with his family.

Look at this person: ordinary appearance, short stature, but the body is particularly fat.

The city lord was full of praise for today's meal, and said with a smile while enjoying it: "Oh, military advisor, I didn't expect that this soldier would be able to eat such delicious things." Only those ordinary people in Hezhen Country are living in dire straits. Every time I eat a meal, I don't know if it's the last 'guillotine feast'......"

In front of him, there were several people sitting. Among them: two boys and two adults. The two children were well-dressed, clean, and looked a little similar to the lord of the city, so it was his two sons.

And the other two, one of them is a military advisor in the city, and the other is born with five big and three thick, with a fierce face, judging from the token on his waist, there is no doubt that he is the deputy city lord.

Before the military advisor could speak, the young master of the city lord on the side grabbed the conversation and said, "Father, it is not good for your health to eat like this! No matter how rich you are, I am afraid that the carriage will not be able to fit ......."

The city lord seemed to be doting on his two young masters, and even if the eldest son said this, he didn't show the slightest displeasure. Instead, he responded happily: "The world is so chaotic at the moment, and it is a meal to be able to eat a full meal! Otherwise, when the crisis comes, it will be too late to regret it......

The deputy city lord on the side put down his chopsticks and disagreed with the city lord's words: "City Lord Sun, what you said is a little inappropriate! Our Shuangzi is thousands of miles away from the front line, with Fuqiu Kingdom in the west, Fengjia and Bihai City in the south. Even if the war is tight, it won't be our turn to talk......"

When the city lord Sun heard this, he raised his head and said with a smile: "What the deputy city lord said is extremely true! It seems that the city lord is too worried. Hehe, now that the sky is falling, it's none of our business, let's just hold our troops for now.

If it is Emperor Li, this time he will wipe out the army of corpse monsters in one fell swoop. In this way, there is no need to spend a single soldier on both sides. The innocent civilians below will not be harassed by foreign races. Everyone is happy......"

With that, he raised his glass. But because of his oversized body, it was difficult to even stand up. Then he sat in his place and saluted the two of them: "Come on, come on, for the sake of Shuangfeng Country to stand, for the sake of the elegant savior Emperor Li, and for the sake of peace, we have made this cup......!"

Here, it is one of the only two cities in Shuangfeng Country: Shuangzidu, known as "Twin Cities" in the world.

As one of the vassal countries of Hezhenguo, Shuangfeng is not big, but it is not small. The territory is only a few hundred miles, and there are two cities of "Shuangzidu" and "Fengjia". There are hundreds of attached villages and towns, and I won't count them here.

It is said that decades ago, Li Shanlou, the founding monarch of Hezhen State, overthrew the Tianluan State regime. Its momentum was unstoppable, destroying all the way, and almost even the entire Shenya Territory was taken under its command! However, due to the stubborn resistance of the Nine Holy Kingdoms in the north and the Western Witch Kingdom in the extreme west, they could not take one of them in one fell swoop.

Therefore, small countries such as Shuangfeng Guo that relied on the first two were deliberately retained by Li Shanlou. As a buffer zone between the three kingdoms, it is also a vassal country, and pays tribute to the country of Hezhen every year, and it also ensures that it is safe and sound.

The city lord of these twin cities, named Sun Chaohai, has little ability, and he is idle all day long. Due to the small size of Shuangfeng Kingdom, even a small city must be hereditary. If nothing else, the kid who spoke just now, that is, Sun Chaohai's eldest young master, is the next city lord.

But there are no absolutes in everything, and it is only said here that "if there is no accident", no one can say anything about the things between heaven and earth. It is the best to use "the plan has not changed quickly" to describe the recent situation of Shuangzidu.

I didn't say much about this, just when Sun City Lord and the others were unguarded. What no one knew was that a ghostly figure, taking advantage of the night, quietly approached the city gate.

Look at this figure: tall and majestic, wearing a wide wind-sheltering robe, it is difficult to hide its strong physique. This man hides his face in the darkness and cannot see clearly. Instead, a pair of dark reflective eyes, under the light of the wall lamp, faintly emitted a cold light like a beast.

Behind his back, a weapon was tied diagonally: half a foot wide and more than four feet long, and the blade was tightly wrapped in cloth. I couldn't tell if it was a knife or a sword, only at the end of the handle, a hideous ghost head was cast.

At this time, it was late at night, and the gates of Shuangzidu had long been closed. At this time, the nearby patrol team also withdrew into the city before closing the door.

In the shadows under the city walls, this man stood for more than half an hour, motionless like a sculpture. The sentries on the wall patrolled back and forth several times, but they were completely unaware.

At this moment, two sentries happened to meet him. The moment they staggered by, they only felt a breeze behind them. Almost invariably, they turned around, only to see their companions who also looked back. Then he smiled, didn't think about it, and walked away again.

At this time, the figure had infiltrated the Twin Cities without realizing it. I didn't have time to look around, so I went straight into a small alley, and after turning around in the narrow alley, I finally stopped somewhere.

I saw another figure suddenly appear in front of him. The face was also blurred under the cover of the night. I could only take advantage of the lights of his house to vaguely see the latter carrying a one-man high bow and crossbow on his back, and an unknown animal skin on his shoulder.

The two figures were so stalemate for a while, only to hear the figure with a bow on his back say lightly: "Brother Chai, you are finally here." The brothers have been waiting here for two days, and they are already ready, just waiting for you to give the order yourself!"

The other person was still like a sculpture, not moving. But the hoarse voice slowly floated out from the shelter robe: "Now that I look like this, even if I am walking on the road and being looked at by others, I am afraid it will make people suspicious, it is always good to be careful." Brother Zhen, you did a good job. Now that everything is ready, we don't have to wait any longer, we will act tonight......"

As they spoke, the eyes of the two suddenly lit up. I saw a person hurrying out of the corner, carrying a lantern in his hand. When he saw the two of them, he walked over quickly.

When the latter approached, by the light of the lantern, he could see the two people standing here: the man hidden in the windbreaker now showed half of his face, and his face was an unnatural iron blue. And the strange thing is that the pair of eyes, without a trace of the whites of the eyes, are as dark as a bottomless pool!

If Liang Mingdi was here at this time, he would definitely be shocked when he saw this person. Because this person is actually the deputy city lord of Bihai City who has disappeared for four years, his third brother - Chai Jiuzheng!

And the other person is not a stranger: it was the "First Warrior of the Nine Saints" who fought with the Liang City Lord for Hu Qin - Zhen Lu!

Just as he and Jinsha Shengu had guessed, this Chai Jiuzheng and Zhen Lu were really in cahoots! At this moment, the two of them coincidentally appeared in Shuangzi Capital, there must be nothing good!

The later person is also a master. He hurried through the alley, apparently looking for them. When I saw that both of them were here, I hurriedly ran over.

Approaching, Chao Chai Jiuzheng knelt down on one knee, and said respectfully: "Deputy City Lord Chai, you are finally here, your subordinates have already prepared, do you want to act immediately?"

The latter waved his hand, and then responded in a deep voice: "Don't be in a hurry to startle the snake first, you lurk first, wait for me and Zhen Lu to find out, and then use fire as the number." When you see it, you know what to do next. Hurry up and give the order!"

The master took the order to retreat, and when the light was far away, the faces of Chai Jiuzheng and Zhen Lu gradually disappeared into the darkness.

I saw the former make a gesture towards the latter, signaling to talk as he walked, and said softly: "Let's go, we have been planning for many years, and now is the best time to implement the plan." Don't drag everyone down at this critical moment......"

Zhen Lu followed and responded angrily: "Look at what Brother Chai said~ Now we are grasshoppers on a rope, do you still have anything to worry about me? On the contrary, the younger brother has a question, where have you gone if you have not been in the past two days? ”

The former glanced at him, and only said lightly: "I haven't been idle in the past two days! Before entering the city this time, I also went to inquire about the latest situation on the front line.

The guy told me that there was going to be some movement on his side recently. I'm afraid I'm afraid I've already started to attack at this point!"

After hearing this, Zhen Lu let out an "oh", but there was a faint worry in his heart: "That guy is the 'ghost king'! Brother Chai can trust it so much? Don't be beaten by them when the time comes, then the plan we have worked hard for several years will be in vain......

On the other hand, the former waved his hand indifferently and said: "It's okay, we are just using each other, although we are exchanging information now, but it is all for our own purposes."

We just need to be cautious, and when the time comes, sooner or later I will have a turn of face with it. Now with these thousands of masters, I have been hiding in XC for four years, and it is time to find a place to stay!"

After a pause, as if he suddenly remembered something, he sneered and said leisurely to the latter: "Brother Zhen, don't say it, that guy's mind is really not covered. Recently, the spies talked to me about the strange behavior of the corpse monsters in Yu, and even the spies I planted there couldn't figure out what they were trying to do.

This guy is so cunning that he doesn't know what tricks he is playing secretly. In my opinion, Li Xuanli's coalition army may have suffered a lot recently......

As they were talking, the two turned a corner, and their eyes suddenly opened up. This is the main street of Shuangzidu, a straight and wide street that stretches to the end of the line of sight. At the end, there is a luxurious mansion.

The mansion is the tallest and most imposing building in the Twin Cities. Don't think about it, that is Sun Chaohai's city lord's mansion. At this time, it was very dark, and the shops on both sides of the street had already closed, but the city lord's mansion was brightly lit, reflecting the faces of Chai Jiuzheng and Zhen Lu flickering and dark, like ghosts.

The two stood quietly for a long time, only to hear Zhen Lu say lightly: "I didn't expect a small Shuangzi Capital, the City Lord's Mansion to be built so luxuriously, it seems that this Sun Chaohai has not taken any benefits from the people."

Our trip should also be for the heavens, not only to win the foothold, but also to eliminate harm for the people, killing two birds with one stone! Brother Chai chose the target here, and it was really a far-sighted plan!"

Only Chai Jiuzheng's expression was solemn, and he carefully analyzed and listened to the latter: "Although the surname Sun is good and evil, he is also the lord of a city." Shuangfeng has existed for hundreds of years and has not fallen, after all, it still has some heritage.

Now you and I are exploring the tiger's den alone, but don't show your feet at the critical moment! The others are easy to deal with, the deputy city lord of these twin cities: Yang Xiaolin, it's not a simple thing, let's not capsize in the gutter!"

After listening to this, Zhen Lu also agreed a little. immediately smiled gloomily: "Hehe, that guy, Zhen has already heard of it." But counting all of Shuangzidu, except for him, no one is Brother Chai's opponent. As long as you can subdue it, everything will be easy...... It seems that from tomorrow, I should call you 'Chai City Lord'~ haha......"

With a sneer, the two figures gradually disappeared into the darkness.
