Chapter 58: The Beginning of the Rebellion
When the executioner's axe slashed at Wu Ryoko's head, Wu Wei's heart was indifferent.
It's hard for him to have any more fluctuations. In the cheers of the soldiers in the sky, the axe slashed at Wu Liangzi, who he had been protecting, and it seemed that everyone chose to let this prisoner die here, and he was the only one who objected.
What should I do? Do I confront the whole country? Is it worth it to give up my position as the head of a country to save a woman? Wu Wei kept asking himself, at this moment he seemed to be firmly bound by the situation he had set up, and he couldn't help himself. The axe was held in the executioner's hand, but what Witch knew was that there was actually an invisible thread at hand, and the other end of the thread was connected to the tanuki. Obviously, this man can move his fingers and Wu Liangzi doesn't have to die, why did it end up like this?
You want me to choose between power and women, but why are you forcing me to make a choice, I am your brother.
The axe continued to fall, and the cheers grew louder.
A "bang" sounded in everyone's ears, and then there was silence downstairs in the parade.
The axe did not slash down as everyone expected, but fell directly to the ground. The executioner was pushed several feet away with a palm, but fortunately the other party did not injure his life. When the executioner stood up, he only saw a picture that he could not have imagined at all: the head of the witch tail stood in front of him next to the prisoner of the cow who should have been sacrificed to the flag, his head bowed slightly, his face gloomy, as if he had no expression at all.
"Witchtail, you've disappointed me so much. The king's voice came and the executioner followed the sound and saw the mysterious smiling face of the monarch on the parade floor. Isn't it disappointment, why do you still laugh? With the intelligence of the executioner, it seems that it is incomprehensible for a while.
Hearing the tanuki's voice, Witch Tail didn't react any superfluously, he just jumped up to the parade building, and after a few breaths, he stood in front of the tanuki. The low pressure he brought made the tanuki shiver, and the latter, almost instinctively, took a step back, stared at him tightly, and said, "What are you going to do?"
"You're the one who let me down. When Witch Tail looked up, the tanuki saw a flash of blood in his eyes, which was the expression that only appeared when he was about to kill! It seemed that he suddenly felt a chill coming, and Witch Tail had just taken out his hands from behind him and took a step back to make a fighting gesture, but the next moment he was numb and sore, and lost his ability to fight.
At this moment, the guards and maids on the entire parade floor exploded. The guards stepped forward one after another, and the maids all tried to flee backwards in panic, but everyone's actions were temporarily halted by Wu Wei's "Stop!" Witchtail pulled his left hand out of the tanuki's abdomen, and blood splashed all over his face, but his right hand was still holding the other man's neck, and he took control of his brother's movement and scarred him in mid-air.
"Why ......" the tanuki began, his voice weak. Wuwei's shot just now was too surprising to him, but it was too fast and strong. The near-fatal blow quickly shattered his internal organs, and the rupture of the aorta and internal organs quickly made him incapacitated. What this fake Kiss monarch never imagined was that he would lose the ability to resist at the hands of his brother.
In front of everyone, in the dead silence and the sound of the tanuki panting, Witchtail slowly drew his saber and said, "You forced me first, didn't you?"
"Don't you want to unify the Nine Kingdoms, why do you waste so much time on one woman!" the tanuki almost roared these words, his anger reaching everyone's ears, and inexplicably some of the guards on the parade floor actually heard a trace of grievance in it.
Witchtail's saber sliced steadily into the tanuki's neck, and his hand was steady, neither fast nor slow, as if it were unusually determined. Gradually, the knife cut through the skin, muscles, and then through the throat, and the tanuki's eyes widened as he looked at Witchtail, but he couldn't say a word.
He couldn't see the hesitation on Witchtail's face either.
"Jiangshan, women, I want it. You're wrong, and you shouldn't threaten me. Witchtail's saber slashed through the tanuki's neck and cut off his head. Putting the saber back into its scabbard, Witch Tail took the mask off the Tanuki's dead head, and then threw the head onto the parade square without hesitation.
The tanuki's head fell from the parade tower with a thud, and although it didn't fall into a puddle of flesh when it fell to the ground, only a pair of hideous eyes could see it. All the soldiers felt a suffocating sense of oppression rush over them, and everyone stared at each other with wide eyes, not knowing what was happening, only the skull..... Probably the king's?
The country of the kiss seems to have changed.
Wu Wei was on the parade floor, scanning the guards present, but no one dared to use force against him. Everyone held knives at him, but everyone's hands trembled as if their knives could fall to the ground at any moment. The man who was half splattered with blood smiled, carrying the mask that had just been peeled off from his hand, Wuwei turned to look at the 60,000 soldiers present and said, "Do you think that the person who has been serving and has been loyal is the king?"
"No! our monarch has long been exchanged for a prince by a tanuki!"
"This person's name is Tanuki, and he was once a death row prisoner, but he secretly used forbidden methods to kill our monarch Wei Quinoa and replace him!
Witchtail's voice resounded through the sky, and he was answered by shouts of excitement that filled the sky.
Where is the objection? It doesn't seem to make the difference between the monarch dying or not dying, anyway, most of the soldiers in the country of the Kiss have long been taken under the command of Witchtail, and the rest are just swaying.
Witch Tail raised the hand holding the mask above his head, as if it were a trophy of war, indicating his sovereignty. Most of the 60,000 soldiers downstairs in the parade were cheering for his victory, as if their general Wuwei was a saint at this moment, a saint who revealed the truth to them and broke the illusion.
No one paid attention to the corpse of the tanuki who fell to the ground at this time, bleeding profusely, as if no one cared about the loser.
Hustle and bustle, but what's the use of hustle and bustle? Wu Liangzi thought to himself. She was tied up in the middle of a crowd, and despite being an outlier, no one paid any attention to her at the moment, not even the man who had been saying for days that he wanted her to get her and wanted to keep her, and he didn't even look at her at the moment.
Oh, man.
Witchtail was laughing, and he was laughing happily. It was as if all his scars had healed, and he no longer had to worry about anything being leaked or others knowing his secrets. Isn't it enough that he's safe, and he's able to take full control of the entire Kiss Nation and carry out all his plans?
"You seem to be happy, don't you?" Suddenly, a familiar voice came into Witchtail's ears, causing him to thump violently. It was as if a swarm of tiny insects were crawling down his spine from his skull, and fear and a lot of cold sensations instantly spread from his head down to his body.
Isn't he supposed to die???
Turning around at the sound of the voice, he was about to see what was going on, when he noticed that a huge fist had approached. Witchtail hurriedly raised his hands to block, but it was too late, and the fist smashed firmly into his face and knocked him a full foot away. In a hurry, the human skin mask that he had just taken off floated gently to the ground, and no one paid attention to it.
"You?" Witch Tail suddenly felt a chill on his face, and when he looked up, he saw a familiar face appear in front of him, and a slight chill was still bubbling from his outstretched fist. "Who the hell are you?
"Of course he's my friend. While Wuwei was still staring at Nine-Half, the voice that had just spoken came from behind Nine-Half. Then, in Wuwei's eyes, a sturdy man walked in with a chair on his head. The sturdy man's actions didn't make Wu Wei react, but the face of the man in the chair really made Wu Wei tremble and couldn't speak.
"How's it going, my old friend Wuwei, don't come unharmed?"
The quinoa spoke, his expression a little hideous.
When the quinoa appeared, everyone was amazed as if their souls had been shocked. Time seemed to stand still, and after a few breaths, all the people on the parade floor, whether they were the property keepers or the soldiers' maids, knelt down in unison, and they said in unison: "Meet the monarch!"
Of course, among these people, there is no such thing as Witchtail.
Wuwei, who has been greatly impacted in his heart, is more remorse at the moment. He could almost imagine that the tanuki had found a place to put him under house arrest instead of killing the man in front of him, but what no one could have imagined was that the man would be able to escape alive and stand in front of him with what seemed to be a strong outsider.
He has an impression of the two people in front of him. And in fact, it is impossible not to be impressed, after all, they had just fought a few days ago. But at that time, it was because of the presence of the tanuki! The tanuki was a rare fighting genius, so he was able to beat these two into the ground. It is a miracle that these two people were trapped in the underground palace and were able to escape.
Wu Wei's mind was a little confused, and the scene in front of him was so large that he couldn't accept it for a while. "You... You're not...."
"I should be dead, right?" Wei Qu sat in front of Wei Xicheng, tilted his neck and looked at Wu Wei and said, "I, the Kiss Monarch Wei Quinoa, should be dead, right?"
"Yes, yes, you shouldn't have died somewhere in this world, I was looking for someone to fake your identity to maintain the stability of the country!" Witchtail said in a trembling tone, but it seemed to shout these words.
But Wei Quinoa always looked at him with a smile, looking at a person as if he was staging a one-man show. Wei Terrestris is naturally not afraid of anything, although he has not yet seen Wei Xicheng and Jiu Ban make a move, but he has a very clear trust in these two people along the way, not to mention that he repelled Wu Wei with just one punch in Jiu Ban, which gave Wei Wei more confidence. He was about to speak, trying to wear down the usurper's confidence, but suddenly the witchtail in front of him pulled out his sword from behind him and slashed forward.
"You shameless man, suffer death!"
Wu Wei's knife was about to slash the head of the Wu Terrestris, but in the next moment, a big hand firmly grabbed Wu Wei's wrist, and then a calm and rough voice appeared in the ears of everyone on the parade floor: "General Wu Wei, please explain what this situation is." ”
The hand that stopped Wuwei belonged to General Zuo.
The military system of the Nine Kingdoms is almost unified, and the top general of a country's army is called the "head of the general", such as the Wuwei of the country of the Kiss. Under the general, there are two generals on the left and right who are in charge of different affairs, and they are generally one inside and one outside. And General Zuo of the country of the kiss is even more of a legend, he has been in the army for decades, and he has steadily achieved the position of General Zuo all the way. Born with infinite strength, he has taken the lead in every battle, and has accumulated a lot of military achievements over the years, and his honest and reliable character has always been loved by the officers and soldiers in the army.
His innate divine power allowed him to take over Wuwei's knife steadily, even though his realm was far from Wuwei's, and his prestige in the army made it impossible for Wuwei to continue to swing the knife at Wei Quartre. After all, although Wuwei has mastered most of the soldiers, if he loses his military heart, he will definitely be doomed.
Withdrawing his hands, Wu Wei calmed down a little and was about to speak, but Wei Quinoa interrupted him: "Forget it, General Zuo, let's talk about it." ”
Then Wei Wei was helped up by Wei Xicheng beside him, although his tendons and tendons were all broken, he still walked towards Wuwei step by step with difficulty, and said as he walked: "One night two months ago, General Wuwei led the thirty-six soldiers of the Imperial Forest Army, and I don't know how to do it, but I broke through the many prohibitions and patrolling guards in the palace, came to my dormitory, and forced me to abdicate, right, General?" Saying that, the kissing monarch turned his eyes to the right general who was standing aside, but the other party just lowered his face slightly and hid his eyes, and didn't say a word.
It is not unreasonable for Wei Terrestris to be suspicious of General Right. The left and right generals of the country of the Kiss are one of the two of them, one of them is the outside, and the other is the inside, the duty of the left general is to fight abroad, and the right general is in charge of the imperial defense project, and the defense of the imperial city is naturally among them. The defense project of the Kiss Palace is actually very vast and detailed, and ordinary people who want to invade can only rely on the help of the inner ghost unless they have extraordinary martial arts cultivation.
And to be able to fight all the way into the monarch's bedroom, this inner ghost must be not small.
Seeing General You's dodge, it seemed to be expected by Wei Quinoa, and he didn't care about it, but turned his head and continued to look at Wuwei and said, "If you can't force the palace, you tied me up and knocked me out with one palm, right?"
"What evidence do you have! If you don't have evidence, you don't want to spew blood, I'm telling you that this is a felony and you will be punished!"
"Evidence, then tell me who the man who just died, what is the human skin mask in your hand, can you explain everything that just happened, well? hahahahahaha......" The quinoa suddenly laughed, the laughter was sarcastic and arrogant, an emotion that could hardly be contained. He jerked his face close to Witchtail's face, stared at the other party's eyes with his eyes, and then said fiercely, "I asked you to skin and verify your identity, but do you dare?"
Hearing the words, Wu Wei suddenly took a step back, but felt a chill all over his body. What the hell is going on, why did this person who should have been killed by the tanuki suddenly appear as if he had returned from hell, and he was almost as vicious as a different person? But after seeing the black in the other party's eyes, Wu Wei suddenly understood everything: I am afraid that what he has experienced in the past few months has made the Tsunoa no longer a Quinoa, and this Kiss Monarch may no longer be himself.
After taking a step back, Wu Wei turned around suddenly, and then jumped directly and jumped towards the outside of the parade building. His body was still in mid-air, and at the same time, there was a full voice behind him: "I am the head of the country of the kiss, and I have deceived and concealed the crime of treason, and now I am dismissed from the position of the head of the general, and there is no forgiveness for killing him!"
As soon as Wu Quinoa's words fell, before Wu Wei could react, he only felt that a sudden chill on his back was as if he had been hit hard, and then the extremely cold aura instantly invaded from a point and spread at an extremely fast speed. He suffered pain in his lower back and fell straight towards the parade ground.
Then, the voice of the ninth half came into his mind: "Wuwei, the battle of the day is not over yet." Now that your brother is gone, you can replace him!"
Wuwei was smashed to the ground by Nine-Half's punch, and Nine-Half's followed.
On the parade floor, the roaring Wai Quinoa sat paralyzed in a chair, losing his strength like a dead fish.
