Saga Nozomi couldn't judge, so he simply chose according to his place of birth. Black, who was born on both sides of the duel, was born in Bianliang, and Nozomi Saga now thinks that he is a native of Bianliang, so he subconsciously feels that this Black who was born in Bianliang has a sense of intimacy, so he pointed to Black and said, "I choose Black's one." ”

The maid in the red dress nodded and asked; "I wonder how much Miss has to bet?"

Nozomi Saga thought for a moment and said, "Let's bet thirty taels of silver." The maid in the red dress said, "Okay, please come with me with the silver ticket." Nozomi Saga nodded to the maid, and the maid followed the maid in the red dress. Soon after, the maid returned, handed a ticket to Saga Nozomi, and said, "Miss, this is the ticket they issued, saying that if you win, you can use this ticket to go to the place where you bet to receive the prize." Nozomi Saga nodded.

Bang bang, the door banged a few times. The maid immediately went over and opened the door, only to see a red-dressed maid standing at the door with a food plate on her face, and said, "This is the tea we provide for free." The maid stepped aside, and the maid in the red dress walked in, placed the refreshments on the small round table in front of Nozomi Saga, and then stepped back and closed the door.

Nozomi Saga Yumi refreshments are very exquisite, and even though I'm not hungry, I can't help but eat and drink. Thinking of what he saw and heard in Bianliang City tonight, he couldn't help but chat with the maid. The two of them were full of interest, and time passed unconsciously.

While! Suddenly, there was a loud sound of gongs. The two of them couldn't help but be startled and looked towards the field. I saw that the audience gradually quieted down, and a woman stood in the middle of the competition venue and shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, tonight's blood-boiling iron-blooded battle is about to be staged!" The audience couldn't help but get excited and let out a burst of howls, and Nozomi Saga was so infected by the atmosphere of the scene that he almost couldn't help but shout.

"Two Warriors are invited!"

With her shout, the audience immediately resounded with a burst of shouts, divided into two factions, and shouted the names of the two sides of the duel. At the same time, a burly warrior in black heavy armor and a black cloak and holding a mace walked into the field from the left, while a burly warrior in red heavy armor and a red cloak and holding a steel long stick entered the field from the entrance on the right.

The shouts of the audience instantly turned into a howl, and the two of them couldn't help but shout, and the wild blood was already boiling.

The host raised his right hand, and the two sides of the duel immediately stepped forward, staring at each other from a distance of a few steps, although the audience was far away, they had already felt the strong murderous aura of the two sides of the duel, and couldn't help but be more excited, but the noise on the scene quickly calmed down. Nozomi Saga's eyes widened and she held her breath.

The host took a few steps back, put his right hand down suddenly, and shouted at the same time, "Start!" Then he turned and ran away.

I saw the Black warrior roar, stepped forward, and swept his opponent's waist with both hands with a mace. The Red Champion immediately took a step back, only to see the mace whistling past the Red Warrior, and narrowly struck the Red Warrior. The audience couldn't help but howl, and the two of them were nervous and excited, hoping that their warriors would continue to attack and defeat each other quickly!

At that moment, the Red Warrior suddenly took a step forward and smashed the long steel stick in his hand straight at the Black Warrior's wrist. Black's warrior has just used his old move, and he has no time to withdraw his hand to block. I heard a loud crack, and the steel stick hit the wrist of the Black warrior so loudly that one couldn't help but wonder if the wrist of the Black warrior had been broken! This sudden reversal caused the crowd to cheer in unison with the Red Warriors, while the crowd with the support of Black all exclaimed, and the two of Saga Nozomi and the maid raised their hearts to their throats.

Black's wrist hurts, and Den Den takes a few steps back. The Red Warrior was unforgiving, and attacked fiercely, and the pure steel long stick in his hand was fiercely picked from the bottom up, and the moves were very tricky. The Black warrior obviously did not expect this move, and his steps were messy, and he waved his mace with both hands to seal it. However, the mace was too heavy, and it was too late, and the footsteps were already chaotic, and he couldn't dodge, only to see the red steel rod snap on the waist and crotch of the black warrior, and the black warrior snorted. Immediately afterwards, the Red Warrior wrapped the steel rod around his waist, and swept towards the Black Warrior from the other direction with both hands. The Black warrior could no longer dodge, only to see the steel rod hit the black warrior the waist, and the black warrior snorted and fell to the ground.

The crowd cheering loudly for the Red champions, while the crowds for the Black champions were depressed and disappointed.

The Red Warrior did not take advantage of the victory and stopped. The host of the basically came, and the Black warrior who rushed to the ground shouted, "Is it still comparing?" The Black warrior seemed unable to speak, but nodded. The host immediately said loudly: "I'll start reading, one, two, three,......" The two of them watched the black warrior who fell to the ground trying his best to stand up, and they couldn't help but be shocked in their hearts, and they cheered for him like the rest of the audience!

When the host reads the ninth, the Black warrior finally staggers to his feet with his mace.

The host raised his right hand and said loudly: "Good! Get ready! The Red warrior carries the steel rod, and the Black warrior grabs the mace with both hands and glares at the other side. The host's right hand was slammed down, "Go on!" ”

The Red Champion stepped forward and stabbed the Black Warrior in the chest with the steel rod in his hand. The Black warrior did not dodge, and the steel rod slammed into the black warrior's chest. Nozomi Saga couldn't help but exclaim. At this moment, the black warrior suddenly stretched out his left hand and grabbed the opponent's steel rod, and raised his mace with his right hand and smashed it against the opponent's head! This sudden reversal made all the audience exclaim!

At the last moment, the RED Champion dodged sideways, but he dodged the skull-shattering evil, but could not completely dodge his opponent's mace. The mace slammed into the left shoulder of the Red Champion, sending the Red Champion to his knees! The Red Warrior roared angrily, and despite the sharp pain of falling apart all over his body, he took advantage of the situation to withdraw the steel rod held by his opponent, and his body spun around, and swept the calf of the Black Warrior with one hand! The Black warrior didn't have time to dodge, and was hit hard by the steel rod, snorted, and flipped to the ground! This fight was only a moment, but it was thrilling!

The two champions separated, and the black warrior fell to the ground again, while the red warrior barely collapsed with a steel rod. The scene was silent, and then there was an extremely enthusiastic shout. The two of Saga Nozomi's eyes widened, their eyes were full of shock, such a warrior fight, they don't say they have seen it, they have never heard of it!

The host ran up again, and the Black warrior who had fallen to the ground shouted, "Give up?" The Black warrior did not speak, but struggled to get up, and the answer was self-evident. The host immediately said, "I'll start reading, one, two, three......"

The Black warrior had already climbed up, but he couldn't continue, and as soon as his body went limp, he fell down again, spurting out a mouthful of blood. The Red Warrior's move to get the poisonous dragon out of the hole just now obviously caused him to be very seriously injured. The crowd in support of Black's warriors kept shouting, "Stand up! Stand up! Don't fall! ...... "The Black warrior was indeed desperate, but he was so badly wounded that he kept spitting blood, and he couldn't stand up at all.

The host kept reading, and when it reached ten, the Black warrior finally failed to get up. There was a huge cheer at the scene, and countless people shouted the names of the Red Warriors. At the same time, more than a dozen ambulance crews rushed in and carried both the red and black sides down.

Nozomi Saga's maidservant was extremely disappointed and said, "Miss, our warriors have been defeated!" Saga Nozomi nodded, and then his eyes showed excitement, and said, "This trip is really not in vain!" He stood up and said to the maidservant, "It is not too early, and we will go back." Then he led the maidservant and left. On the way, when I heard everyone talking about the contest, the crowd in favor of the Red Warrior was delighted, and the crowd in favor of the Black Warrior admired the Black Warrior. Also, although the Black warriors were defeated, they were also defeated very beautifully. Everyone can see that the strength of the Black warrior is very far from the opponent, but he dared to use the same method to inflict heavy damage on the opponent, and almost reversed! No one is not admired for such bravery!

What everyone admires is a real warrior, and a real warrior is not invincible, but he must be defeated vigorously and defeated like a warrior! is like Xiang Yu, he is a loser, but why are there more admirers than the victor Liu Bang? There is no other reason, because he is a real brave, a real overlord! Although Liu Bang won, it is just a villain's ambition, although Xiang Yu was defeated, but the last battle by the Wujiang River was vigorous, blood-stained mountains and rivers, its bravery, its domineering spirit is eternal, no one can compare! Therefore, everyone admires Xiang Yu!

Saga Nozomi walked on the street, and her heart was already extremely firm in her idea of becoming a Ming person, and subconsciously she already regarded herself as a Bianliang person of the Ming Dynasty.

The gaze turned to the Imperial Study. Zhang Xiang came to meet Yang Peng and said: "Your Majesty, not long ago, Mrs. Sima came to find Weichen again, saying that he knew that he had committed a great crime, and he actually had eyes that he didn't know Mount Tai, and he was presumptuous in front of His Majesty and Niangniang!" In order to atone for his sins, he is willing to hand over half of the Sima family's property to the public! ”

Yang Peng was stunned for a moment, and laughed: "This hairless old iron rooster has actually become so generous!" ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "They must be afraid of death now!" Naturally, I don't dare not pluck my hair! ”

Yang Peng smiled and waved his hand, "This kind of thing is just a smile, but it can't really be his filial piety." ”

Zhang Xiang said: "His subordinates told him that His Majesty is the first holy monarch in the past and present, and his mind is like the sea, and he will never have any prejudice against him because of this matter, so that he doesn't have to be like this." But he just didn't listen, and insisted on giving half of his wealth to His Majesty. It's useless for the subordinates to talk badly, there is no way, so I have to report to Your Majesty. ”

Yang Peng said: "There's no need to talk to him about anything, just tell him, if he doesn't accept it, he won't accept it, if he wants to chirp again, just drive him out." Zhang Xiang said with a smile: "The subordinates obey the order." After a pause, he said, "Your Majesty, about the fact that Western Catholicism is going to wage a holy war against my Ming Dynasty......

Yang Peng said: "We have already discussed this matter. The Western world is thousands of miles away from us, and there are thousands of mountains and rivers in between, and even if the Western world really wants to send troops, the scale will be limited. If troops are sent by land, they must pass through Western Liao, will Western Liao let them pass? I'm afraid that before they can clash with our army, they will have a big battle first. If you send troops from the water, hehe, you will have to pass the level of our water army first. From what I know about the West in this era, it is difficult for their naval army to compete with ours. Even if they were lucky enough to break through the barrier and come to the Bagan region, their forces would be very limited, and with Duan Zhixian and the elite under his command, they would be able to annihilate them completely. Therefore, there is no need to take the so-called jihad in the Western world seriously at all. These guys are screaming so hard right now, but when they find things hard to do, they will die down. Rushing to mobilize an army and deliver supplies for this 'threat' that is not a threat will only keep us busy in vain, and it will also pay some unnecessary costs. ”

Zhang Xiang frowned and said, "What Your Majesty said is extremely true. It's just that during this period of time, relevant information has been coming, which always makes subordinates feel uneasy! ”

Yang Peng smiled: "You just put your heart in your stomach." I'll pack you a ticket, and you'll be fine. ”

Zhang Xiang hurriedly said: "Your Majesty's words, your subordinates can't afford it." ”

Yang Peng said: "Okay, it's not too early. You should go back and rest early. Zhang Xiang bowed and bowed: "My subordinates retire." "Then it went down.

Yang Peng smiled, thinking of things in the West, he didn't pay much attention to it. However, he feels that his current understanding of the Western world is still too superficial, and the information in all aspects only stays in a general concept, and Hua Xu's tentacles have just entered the Western world, and he cannot depict the ecology of the entire Western society for the time being, and it is even more difficult to obtain important information about the Western society in a timely manner, let alone the confidential information within it. However, there is no need to worry about this, after all, the conflict and collision between our side and Western society should not occur for the time being, and even if it does, the intensity will be limited, and we still have time to build a complete intelligence network in Western society.

Yang Peng put these thoughts behind him, got up and left the imperial study.

Zhang Xiang returned to his mansion, and the official family immediately came to report: "My lord, Master Sima is still waiting for my lord!" ”

Zhang Xiang smiled bitterly and muttered, "This old thing! When I walked into the hall, I saw Mrs. Sima pacing back and forth with a worried face, and said with a smile: "Mrs. Sima." When Master Sima heard Zhang Xiang's voice, he quickly turned around, saw Zuo Mou, hurriedly stepped forward, bowed and said, "My lord, you are back!" ”

Zhang Xiang smiled: "Didn't I tell you to go back first?" ”

Master Sima said: "The grass people are really worried! Have you seen Your Majesty, my lord? Zuo Mou nodded. Mrs. Sima couldn't help but lift his heart, "Your Majesty, he, he ......"

Zhang Xiang waved his hand and said, "Your Majesty asked me to tell you, it was just a misunderstanding, and he had already forgotten it." As for the fact that you want to donate your family property, Your Majesty will never accept it. ”

Mrs. Sima was greatly disappointed and panicked, and said, "Your Majesty refuses to accept the apology of the grass people, and he will never forgive the grass people!" This, how can this be good? ”

Zhang Xiang said angrily: "What kind of character is Your Majesty?" That's a great hero who has not been born for thousands of years! Your Majesty said that he didn't blame you, so naturally he didn't blame you, what are you still doing here? Master Sima frowned and said, "What the Lord said is naturally good. However, His Majesty did not accept the apology of the grass people, the grass people, the grass people's hearts, this heart is really uneasy! ”

Zhang Xiang only felt that he couldn't make sense with this guy, and said angrily: "If you want to mess around again, don't blame me for driving you out!" Seeing Zhang Xiang angry, Master Sima couldn't help but feel a pang in his heart, and he didn't dare to say anything more.

Zhang Xiang said in a soothing tone: "Your Majesty is just a speck of dust in Your Majesty, Your Majesty will not take it seriously, and Niangniang will not take it seriously." If Your Majesty and Niangniang were really dissatisfied with you, Your Majesty would not have accompanied Niangniang to your house to apologize to you. When Master Sima heard this, he couldn't help but feel a lot more relieved, but he still couldn't be completely relieved, so he couldn't help asking: "Your Majesty, he, he really doesn't blame the grass people?" Zhang Xiang nodded, "Don't blame it!" I'll give you a packed ticket! ”

Master Sima was silent for a moment, sighed, bowed to Zhang Xiang, and said, "Thank you for your help, our Sima family will not forget the benefits of adults!" Zhang Xiang hurriedly waved his hand and said, "Don't hurt me!" I don't think you said that! It's not because it's your Sima family's business that I'm going on this trip, even if it's an ordinary civilian, I'll do it, don't think too much about it! Okay, it's not too early, you can go back. "Yes, yes, my lordship is loyal to the country, honest and honest, and the grass people are offended. The grass people don't bother the adults, and the grass people retire. "No." Mrs. Sima left. Zhang Xiang glanced at the back of Master Sima, sighed, and shook his head.

Mrs. Sima returned home. The third master, who had been waiting anxiously, saw that his father was back, and hurriedly greeted him, and asked urgently, "Dad, how is the situation?" ”

Master Sima sighed. The third master's face changed greatly, and he stammered and trembled: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, he, he refuses to forgive us!" That, that ......" said, and he couldn't help but swing all over, as if he was standing naked outdoors on a cold day.

Master Sima waved his hand and said, "No." Lord Zhang said that His Majesty had forgiven us a long time ago. ”

The third master breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily: "Dad, this kind of joke can't be made!" The children were almost scared to death! ”

Master Sima frowned and said, "Having said that, His Majesty has refused our donation. ”

The third old man was stunned and asked puzzledly, "Dad, is there anything wrong with this?" ”

Mrs. Sima glared at his son and scolded, "Stupid thing! Your Majesty didn't accept our filial piety, so it didn't necessarily mean that he really forgave us, don't you understand? The third master's face couldn't help but turn white again, "Then, what should we do?" Master Sima pondered: "I have to see His Majesty." The third old man smiled bitterly: "How is this possible!" Although His Majesty is far closer to the people than the previous emperors, it is not easy for ordinary people to see it. Even if we make a request to the government, the government will only scold us for being insane. ”

Master Sima pondered: "Maybe this method is feasible. The third old man looked at his father curiously. Master Sima smiled: "That's it." ”

After staying in Bianliang for a few days, Saga Xiyu came to the palace to meet Yang Peng.

Yang Peng smiled and asked, "Are you living well these days?" Nozomi Saga nodded, "Great! Grass people have never been so comfortable! Then he bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the grass people have an idea, and I ask Your Majesty for your permission." ”

Yang Peng said: "Let's hear it." ”

Saga Nozomi's eyes showed a look of fanaticism and hope, and said: "The grass people just want to do their part for the Ming Dynasty, please Your Majesty to do it!" ”

Yang Peng smiled: "Didn't you already send an important piece of information?" That's pretty good! ”

Saga Xiyu hurriedly said: "This is far from enough, the grass people want to make real achievements for Your Majesty and the Ming Dynasty!" Yang Peng glanced at Saga Xiyu, saw that her eyes were full of longing, and knew that what she said should be true, and asked, "Why do you want to work for Daming?" Saga Nozomi was stunned for a moment, and then thought: "Grass people, grass people can't say it clearly, they have this desire in their hearts!" ”

Yang Peng nodded, "Okay." I can give you a chance. ”

Nozomi Saga was overjoyed and thanked: "Thank you, Your Majesty for your grace!" ”

Yang Peng said: "I'll give you the identity of a Jinyi Wei secret agent, and when you return to Kyoto, someone will contact you." What we want you to do will be told to you through that person, and if you find any valuable information, you can also pass it on to us through that person. "Yes. The subordinates are determined to serve the country loyally! Yang Peng was stunned for a moment, and nodded with a smile.

On the same day, Saga Nozomi led a few entourages to leave Bianliang and embark on the return journey. After spending the night on the road, I finally returned to my home in Kyoto.

The Master Saga, who had been worried about his daughter, saw that his daughter had finally returned unharmed, and he couldn't help but let go of his choice, and immediately asked his daughter about the results of this trip. Saga Nozomi will see the Ming Emperor report the information, and the Ming Emperor promised to canonize the knighthood once the information is confirmed, and she asked to become a secret agent of the Ming Jinyi Guard and told her father everything. The father was both happy and worried, and only said after a while: "I just don't know if Da Ming is really worth us to take such a big risk!" ”

Nozomi Saga said with certainty: "It's definitely worth it!" Then she told everything she had seen and heard along the way, as well as what she had seen and heard in Bianliang for a few days, especially emphasizing what she had seen and heard in the dueling arena, and finally said: "Daming is like a new sun, exuding vitality, and like a dragon soaring for nine days, majestic in the world!" Hmph, the Japanese people used to think that they could compete with the Ming Dynasty, but in fact, they were really grasshoppers shaking the trees, and they couldn't do anything about it! ”

After all, what happens next, let's see how it will be broken down next time.
