Chapter Ninety-Four: Assassination
Cao Yun and Xu Shu came to the north gate of Jian'an City, but as for Lu Su, Cao Yun asked him to rest for a few days first, adjust his mood, and wait for a good job after the war. After arriving at the city tower, Zhou Yu led 7,000 soldiers out of the city to set up an ambush, and Gan Ning also went with Zhou Yu. Cao Yun then had a brief conversation with Xu Shu, telling him that he must pay attention to the camp of Sun Ce's army, and as long as there are fireworks released, he must launch an attack at the first time and not delay.
Not long after the two of them looked at the city tower, soldiers came to report that Sun Ce's army had arrived at Jian'an City, and stopped at a distance of three thousand meters, and they were going to be stationed on the spot to rest, which was similar to Cao Yun's guess.
Then Cao Yun left the city tower after telling Xu Shu a few more words, and went to a remote place in the city alone, seeing that there was no one around, he changed into the black clothes prepared in advance, and then pinned the three knives prepared to his waist. Then he flew up and stepped out of the city.
It didn't take long for Cao Yun to come to a short distance from where Sun Ce's camp was, stop on a tree, and carefully observe the movements of Sun Ce's army camp.
Sun Ce's army camp obviously has a tired atmosphere, it can be seen that the Wu army that came overnight is very tired, if Mrs. Wu and her party had not been let go before, maybe Sun Ce would have led the army to arrive and forcibly attack regardless of the fatigue of the soldiers, so that maybe there was no need to assassinate Sun Ce himself, and the Wu army would also be defeated. Thinking of this, Cao Yun secretly said a pity in his heart.
Quietly observing the movements of Wu Jun on the big tree, waiting for the night to get darker, and estimating that Sun Ce had fallen asleep before moving. Although the Wu army is tired, the guard is still very strict, there are many soldier sentry posts arranged outside the camp, and there are hierarchies, there are guards every few steps, and it is not easy to get in.
After the night was very dark, the sentries outside the camp also changed twice, and Cao Yun retreated first, leaving the sentry's sight, and then flew into the air. Flying in the air, flying high in the middle of the camp, he saw a no-man's land and fell sharply, and at the moment he was about to land, he rolled a few times to avoid making too much noise.
Hiding behind a tent, Cao Yun quickly observed the tent patterns in the camp, wanting to see the tent where Sun Ce might be. Glancing around, Cao Yun locked on to three tents, these three tents were very conspicuous in the camp, and they should be the places where the big people were.
Cao Yun then rolled a few steps, then bounced up and landed in a tent. As soon as he entered the tent, Cao Yun judged from the clothes in the tent that it was not Sun Ce, because there was no armor in the tent, only a few cloth clothes, and it should be someone from the Xia Yu faction.
Not wanting to waste time, the people from the Xia Yu faction will settle accounts in the future, Cao Yun hurriedly exited the tent. Not long after he withdrew and went to the tent, the person in the tent opened his eyes and frowned, "How do you feel that someone has come in?" This person is Yu Ge, the elder of the Xia Yu Sect.
Yu Ge sat up in a daze, saw a footprint on the ground, and was immediately startled and hurriedly walked out of the camp. After walking out of the camp, Yu Ge glanced around, didn't see anything unusual, and felt at ease.
Suddenly, Yu Ge seemed to remember something, and looked at the tent where Sun Ce was, but vaguely saw a shadow in the tent, and was a little surprised in his heart, could it be that Sun Ce didn't have anyone yet? Thinking about it, he walked over.
As soon as Yu Ge came to the outside of Sun Ce's tent, he heard an 'ah' sound, which was not very loud, but it shocked Yu Ge, and Yu Ge suddenly lifted the tent.
"There are assassins~" Yu Ge roared, and at the same time, he urged the supernatural power to come, and a flame flew towards Cao Yun violently.
When Yu Ge opened the tent and roared, Cao Yun turned his head suddenly, and the knife in his hand was pulled out of Sun Ce's heart. The flame that Yu Ge urged was very fast, and Cao Yun hurriedly threw a torch into the air before he moved his thoughts to enter the Temple of Eternity, and the flame flew to Cao Yun's left arm when Cao Yun disappeared, burning his clothes at once, but fortunately he entered in time.
The torch pointed out by Cao Yun broke through the tent and flew out, and immediately after the torch flew out, it burst open, releasing dazzling fireworks.
Zhou Yu, who was ambushed outside the north gate, saw that there were fireworks in the camp of Sun Ce's army, his eyes tightened, and then he swung his sword down, "The whole army is attacking!"
Xu Shu, who was on the tower of Jian'an City, saw that Zhou Yu's army was already attacking, and immediately ordered the whole army to attack.
At this time, many people had gathered in Sun Ce's tent.
"Call 、、、 call my brother Sun Quan~" Sun Ce said weakly while holding his chest, his chest was already scarlet.
"General, don't talk too much, hurry up and follow the method of knowing the gods and visualizing the gods I told you, visualize and recognize the gods in this peach box, and I will personally go to the Taiyuan Sect in the territory of the Great Song Dynasty to worship and ask the sect to reshape the general's body. Yu Ge said, holding a peachwood square box in his hand. After urging the supernatural powers to repel Cao Yun before, Yu Ge supported Sun Ce and hurriedly told Sun Ce a method of contemplating the gods of the Xuanjia family, and stored the contemplation of the gods in a peach box, which can reshape the body within a certain period of time, and re-enter the body, which is equivalent to resurrection.
Sun Ce didn't say much when he heard this, and hurriedly visualized and recognized God according to the mantra told by Yu Ge, and it didn't take long for him to see white gas coming out of Sun Ce's head and invading the peach box. After all the white qi was submerged in the peach box, Yu Ge closed the peach box tightly and wrapped it in a red cloth.
"General Sun Ce was assassinated, the general trend has gone, you and a few of you quickly return to the sect, let the master redo the plan, I will now take this peach box to the Taiyuan Sect, and ask the Taiyuan Sect to reshape Sun Ce's body and resurrect him. Yu Ge said in a deep voice, and as soon as he finished speaking, he rose into the air and flew away.
The rest of the Xia Yu faction elders glanced at each other, and they also flew away, leaving only a few lieutenants of the Wu army.
"What's wrong with my son?" At this time, Mrs. Wu took Da Qiao and Sun Quan to Sun Ce's tent.
"Woo woo ~ my son ~"
"Husband~Husband~"
"Woo woo, brother~"
After Mrs. Wu entered the tent, she saw Sun Ce's body and cried, her voice was not miserable.
At this time, Cao Yun, who had entered the Temple of Eternity, took out a suit of clothes from the storage bag and changed them, and at the same time asked Bai Qi to open the square mirror to observe the situation outside, and happened to see Mrs. Wu and the others crying loudly.
"Madame, don't cry, the elders of the Xia Yu faction have used Xuanmen thaumaturgy to retain General Sun Ce's divine knowledge, and rushed to the Taiyuan Sect, asking the Taiyuan Sect to resurrect the general. A lieutenant comforted Mrs. Wu.
Although Mrs. Wu didn't know what to do, when she heard that Sun Ce could be resurrected, she stopped crying at once, "Can my family still come back to life?"
"Madame, rest assured, the people of the Fangwai Sect have many strange techniques, and they want to resurrect the general. ”
Cao Yun, who was in the Temple of Eternity, also heard this conversation, and thought in his heart, "Resurrect Sun Ce, can the God of Knowledge be preserved and used to resurrect people?" Cao Yun was very puzzled, could he really resurrect a person?
Thinking of this, Cao Yun was a little excited in his heart, and his thoughts were all about resurrecting his master, but he didn't expect that his enemy Sun Ce might be resurrected, and he would be his enemy!
Looking at Cao Yun, who was a little excited, Bai Qi was a little puzzled, how could the enemy be resurrected and still excited? Then he said loudly: "Cao Yun boy, what's wrong with you? If Sun Ce is resurrected, won't he have to be your mortal enemy? You are excited. ”
Cao Yun came back to his senses when he heard this, "Eh, Ancestor, where am I excited! Eh, I was excited to look at that beautiful woman." Cao Yun said curtly.
Bai Qi rolled his red eyes when he heard this, full of contempt, thinking that Cao Yun was the kind of person who **.
At this moment, Mrs. Wu and the others in the square mirror were in a panic, and there were bursts of shouting and killing, and Cao Yun knew that it should be Zhou Yu and Xu Shu who led the army to attack.
"I don't know if those elders of the Xia Feather Sect are not around, so I don't dare to go out rashly. Cao Yun pondered, "Ancestor, can the picture of this quadrangular mirror turn in the direction?"
"Absolutely. Bai Qi said proudly, and then floated to the black throne, and turned the square beast head with the top of his head, and then the picture of the square mirror turned.
Cao Yun also walked to the throne, "Ancestor give me this thing." ”
Bai Qi immediately floated over when he heard this, "Heh, then you go and turn it." ”
When Cao Yun heard this, he happily stretched out his hand to turn the square beast head, but he didn't want to be unable to turn it, so he was puzzled, so he asked, "Ancestor, why can't I turn this beast head?"
"You think you can turn it at will, and if you don't have the power of a hundred elephants, how can you turn the beast's head? Bai Qi said with some disdain.
"Ah~ the power of a hundred elephants?" Cao Yun said in surprise.
"Hmph, or I'll turn the beast's head and won't let you spin it yourself, as if I was in control of the Eternal Temple. Bai Qi snorted coldly and said, and then floated to the throne again, "Stop and say when you get there." ”
"Eh~ Thank you, Ancestor!" Seeing Bai Qi turn the beast's head again, Cao Yun could only show a stunned look to reduce Bai Qi's anger.
Bai Qi turned the beast's head, and the picture of the square mirror slowly rotated, and Cao Yun was able to see the people in Sun Ce's tent clearly. The quadrangular mirror turned in every direction, and Cao Yun saw that only Mrs. Wu, Da Qiao, and Sun Quan were left in the tent, and all three of them were sobbing beside Sun Ce's body. Although the three of them knew that Sun Ce might still be resurrected, they were still very sad that he was dead after all.
"Alright, Ancestor, you can stop. Cao Yun said.
Bai Qi suddenly stopped turning the beast's head.
"Thank you, Ancestor, thank you, Ancestor. Cao Yun thanked Bai Qi.
When Bai Qi heard this, he rolled his red eyes, revealing a look of contempt, which was very disdainful, which made Cao Yun not embarrassed.
