Chapter 323: Take My Life
Zhangzhou is still brightly lit at night.
As the eastern border of the Xia Kingdom, the lights of Zhangzhou have never been extinguished.
On the tall walls, there would be bonfires at intervals, and a soldier would stand nearby, staring intently below.
This is the city wall to the east of Zhangzhou City, and the city wall to the west is much more lax.
Although there were bonfires on the city walls, they were only far away, and there were not many guards guarding them.
After all, going west is Liuzhou, which is the territory of the Xia Kingdom, so naturally there is no need to deploy a large number of people to guard against it.
Suddenly, from the flat ground to the west, there was the sound of horses' hooves, hurried and chaotic.
Soon, a small group of centaurs emerged from the darkness of the night.
The leader was a strong man, with a sideways face, a standard Xia Guo hairstyle, a luxurious costume in tatters, and bloodstained.
Next to the strong man was an old man, dressed in a turquoise robe, with messy hair and blood stains on his body.
These two are Tuoba Yong and Wen Zhezhu.
Seeing that the city gate was close at hand, Tuoba Yong shouted loudly: "Lao Tzu is Tuoba Yong, the chief official of Liuzhou, there is an urgent military situation, open the city gate quickly!" ”
"Lao Tzu is the chief official of Liuzhou, Tuoba Yong, there is an urgent military situation, open the city gate quickly!"
……
After shouting five times in a row, several soldiers finally appeared on the city wall, holding torches in their hands.
However, no one opened the city gate for him, but instead bent his bow and arrows, and the arrows were aimed at Tuoba Yong and the others.
"Who's making a noise here? Why don't you leave quickly? Otherwise, I'll shoot you right here! ”
Tuoba Yong saw that a few soldiers didn't take him seriously at all, and scolded: "Open your dog's eyes and see!" Lao Tzu is Tuoba Yong, there is an urgent military situation to find your family, and if you dare to delay, Lao Tzu will immediately cut off your dog's head! ”
"Whew!"
One of the soldiers spat at the city and scolded, "What kind of bullshit Tuoba Yong? Lao Tzu's adult surname is He, not Tuoba! ”
Tuoba Yong had been insulted like this, but now that he was injured, he couldn't exert the strength of a martial artist at all, so he looked at Wen Zhezhu as if asking for help, and said, "Mr. Zhu." ”
Wen Zhezhu frowned, put his hand on his shoulder, and then jumped forward.
In the next second, the two of them had already appeared at the head of the city.
Several of the soldiers in the city were stunned on the spot.
With such a high city wall, it is impossible for even a martial artist to jump up at once, and he also carries a strong man.
The identity of the green-robed old man in front of him is already self-evident, and he must be a martial sect whose strength is above that of a martial artist!
"Smack!"
Tuoba Yong slapped the soldier who was talking to him in the face just now, and scolded: "Dog, do you think you can't get in if you don't open the door?" ”
The soldier's face was instantly swollen, his head was "buzzing", and he didn't know anything.
"Dog, wait until Lao Tzu meets the adult in your family first, and then come to settle accounts with you!"
Tuoba Yong specially accentuated the word "adult", and the sound of biting the back molars made people shudder.
But he turned his head to show Wen Zhezhu a smiling face, and said, "Mr. Zhu, let's go!" ”
Wen Zhezhu nodded slightly, then glanced at the city, and said, "Why don't you bring those subordinates with you?" ”
Tuoba Yong originally wanted to say "forget it", but it suddenly occurred to him that saying this would make Mr. Zhu feel that he was too unkind?
You must know that those people were still with him when he was in danger, and now that he has arrived in Zhangzhou City, he has left them outside the city.
The lights are blind, there is not even a place to shelter from the wind and rain, and several people are injured, who knows if they will die of injuries?
"Smack!"
Tuoba Yong slapped the soldier in the face again, and scolded angrily: "Do you have any fucking eyes? Lao Tzu's brothers are still starving outside the city, and you don't know how the fuck to open the door and let them in? ”
"Yes, yes, yes!"
The soldier nodded mechanically, he was already stunned, and reflexively walked down the tower.
However, just as he was about to open the city gates, a voice sounded in his ears.
"Wait!"
The voice came from under the tower, and at some point, two teams of armor soldiers came over.
The leader was a tall man, dressed in black armor and wearing a sash that only a general can wear, with one hand pressed on his waist and a sword, strutting high.
"Li Lin!"
Tuoba Yong looked at the person who came over, and his face suddenly became solemn.
To say that the person he didn't want to deal with the most in the whole of Zhangzhou was not that He Lian, but the person who came over.
Although He Lian had a disagreement with him, that guy is notoriously greedy for money and lustful, and he can kowtow to you immediately if you give some money to a woman.
Li Lin is different!
This is a soldier through and through, and the money woman can impress He Lian, but she can't impress him.
Although He Lian was the chief officer of Zhangzhou, it was Li Lin who really managed the army, and He Lian only played a supervisory role.
The reason why He Lian was sent to supervise was because Li Lin was not a local, let alone a person from the Xia Kingdom. But his ability to lead troops is very strong, and he is needed in Zhangzhou, a strategic place.
While guarding against him, he also wants to use him, so he has He Lian to supervise him.
"General Li, I'm Tuoba Yong, we've met, brother, the people under your command are not sensible. I explained everything to him, but the dog still wouldn't let me in. Tuoba Yong shouted as he stood on the city.
"Really?"
Li Lin's tone was cold, and he looked at the beaten soldier with an expressionless face.
The soldier was so frightened that he knelt on the ground with a "poof" and his head slammed to the ground.
"Brush!"
The next moment, a bright light flashed, and the soldier's head flew into the air.
Then a large amount of blood spurted from his severed neck, bursting like fireworks.
Everyone was dumbfounded, and the air around them seemed to freeze.
Li Lin withdrew his sword and said coldly: "I killed you not because you said the wrong thing, but because you didn't take the general's military order to heart." Ben told you a long time ago that once he enters the curfew, no matter who he is or a dog, he is not allowed to enter the city! ”
When Tuoba Yong heard this, he was so angry that the roots of his teeth itched, which was obviously scolding him!
At that moment, an old voice came from the city.
"Li Lin! You're still in the same temper, and you haven't changed at all. ”
Li Lin raised his head with a "brush", and then noticed Wen Zhezhu standing behind Tuoba Yong.
"Mr. Bamboo!"
Li Lin's originally cold face immediately showed a smile and said, "When did you arrive?" ”
Wen Zhizhu held Tuoba Yong's shoulder with one hand and jumped from the city to the ground, the blood stains on his clothes were so eye-catching in the firelight.
Li Lin was immediately surprised, he knew the strength of this Mr. Bamboo.
More than ten years ago, he was already a martial arts master, and at that time, he became attached to this Mr. Bamboo, and his cultivation is even better than in the past.
"Mr. Bamboo, who hurt you?" Li Lin was worried and angry.
"Ahem!"
As soon as Wen Zhezhu spoke, a mouthful of blood coughed out, and even his body became unstable.
"Mr. Bamboo!"
Li Lin hurriedly stepped forward to support him and said, "This is not the place to talk, go to my house." ”
He didn't bother with Tuoba Yong the whole time, as if Tuoba Yong didn't exist at all.
Tuoba Yong was annoyed on the spot, and said angrily: "I said Li Lin, Lao Tzu has been standing here for so long, haven't you seen it at all?" ”
Li Lin said expressionlessly: "Is Ben familiar with you?" ”
Tuoba Yong almost choked to death by these words, if he hadn't been here, he would have scolded him a long time ago.
Now that he is under the eaves, he has to bow his head, so he can only try to squeeze out a smiling face, and say: "Once born, twice cooked, three times to put a cup, four times to sleep in a bed." This is the third time we've met, and we're still missing a drink, so brother, I'll definitely arrange someone to make up for it. ”
He looked familiar, and seeing the impatience on Li Lin's face, he hurried back to the topic.
"Brother, you don't know, the wild man of the mountain country of the dog day has been fucking killed again. Lao Tzu didn't know how to offend them, and he caught Lao Tzu's Liuzhou one by one! ”
As he spoke, he gestured to himself, "See? It's all done by those wild people from the high mountain country on the dog day, and I almost can't see you, brother! ”
At this point, he burst into tears and snot, grabbed Li Lin's wrist and cried: "Brother, you have to make the decision for your brother!" My brother's wife, children, and children are still in Liuzhou City! I'm waiting for you to send troops to save me! ”
Li Lin looked disgusted, took his hand away, and said: "I already know about this matter, but whether to send troops or not has to be decided by Lord He, and this matter still needs to be told by Lord Tuoba to Lord He in person." ”
"Good, good! I'm going to find Helian now! ”
Tuoba Yong was overjoyed and couldn't wait to walk towards the city, but after walking a few steps, he stopped again, turned back to Li Lin and said, "Brother, brother, I still have a few brothers who are locked up outside the city. They are all injured, can you do my brother a favor and let them in to rest? ”
Li Lin glanced at Tuoba Yong and said to the two soldiers beside him, "Open the door." ”
After receiving the order, the two soldiers quickly walked to the city gate and slowly opened it.
Several soldiers waiting outside the city were already impatient and couldn't wait to enter the city.
One of them complained: "Do you still think of us as your own brothers? Shut us out for so long. ”
When Tuoba Yong heard this, he hurriedly stopped: "Shut up!" Do you think this is your home? If you want to talk nonsense again, you will be beaten and scolded by my brother, Lao Tzu doesn't care about you! ”
Turning his head, he showed a smiling face again, and said to Li Lin: "My brothers are a little ignorant and wild, brother, don't be weird, don't be weird!" ”
Li Lin did not express his dissatisfaction, and said to the two teams of soldiers behind him: "This is Lord Tuoba from Liuzhou, he has an urgent military situation to see Lord He, you take him over." ”
Several soldiers immediately guided Tuoba Yong and the others, and Li Lin himself took Wen Zhezhu to his mansion.
As soon as he sat down, Li Lin's following words made Wen Zhezhu unable to sit still.
"Is Mr. Bamboo here to take my life?"
