Volume III Chapter 184: Before the Duel
Diao Chan knelt on the ground, her delicate body trembled a little, Yun Zhong could feel her fear, and failed to stop Peggy's impulsive decision, which was likely to make this fifth lady Xiang Xiaoyu, if this was the case, I was afraid that she would be severely punished by Yun Zhong.
Yunzhong sighed lightly, motioned to Zhao Qian and Mo Li to help Diao Chan up again, and said warmly: "The blame for this matter lies with me, you don't need to blame yourself." ”
In order to consolidate the rule of this small territory, Yunzhong decided to accept the proposal of the nobles of the Iwaku Kingdom, and married the widowed queen Peggy and the young princess Sylvia, and also married Diao Chan, and ordered the three of them to sit in Yannan City together.
Since then, Yunzhong has only occasionally come to the Western Regions, and the development of Yannan City has been handed over more to Diao Chan and Peggy, two weak women, and Yunzhong does not care enough about the two ladies, especially Peggy, Yunzhong is his husband-killing enemy, and she has to be committed to being a concubine, as a hostage-like existence, she does not get the slightest attention and love from Yunzhong, and now, her half-brother has killed her biological father, making this poor woman even more lonely in this world.
Peggy is stubborn and challenges her brother to life and death, to a large extent, she is rebelling against the world, gambling with her own life, and announcing to the world that she does not want to endure so humiliation and steal life forever.
"There are nearly twenty days left before the duel, so I'm not in a hurry, I'll rest for two days, and then we'll go to Pine City together. ”
In the military camp of Yannan City outside Songmu City, there is a military tent, a wooden platform ten meters square has been temporarily erected, and on the wooden platform, two women in tight short clothes are each holding a wooden spear, and they are fighting fiercely.
Of the two women, one looked to be in her forties, with gray hair and a tall and plump build, and the woman she was fighting against was much younger, about twenty-six or seventeen, with beautiful blonde hair, fair skin, a beautiful face, and a well-proportioned figure.
On both sides of the wooden platform, there were more than a dozen people in battle robes, both men and women, all of them were full of anger, obviously some battle-hardened generals.
The two fought to more than fifty times, and the older gray-haired woman seemed to be physically exhausted, and her blocking action slowed down a little, and she was smashed in the ribs by a blonde beauty with a wooden spear, and with a miserable scream, she threw away the wooden spear in her hand and squatted on the ground holding her stomach.
The blonde woman showed a hint of concern on her face, "I can't stop it, Caitlyn, how are you?"
A smile appeared on Caitlin's pained face, "It's not a big deal, Lady Peggy, maybe I have a broken rib, and I will have to recuperate for two days before I can practice with you again." ”
"Come," cried a young general who was watching the battle, "pull Caitlyn out, give her twenty lashes, and send her to recuperate." ”
Catelyn looked panicked, then lowered her head, and two soldiers approached her, lifted her up, and escorted her out of the tent.
Peggy looked puzzled: "Why, Master Zhang Xiu?"
Zhang Xiu's face remained unchanged: "Because she deliberately lost to you several times, it will cause you to misjudge your strength, and on the day of the duel, your brother will never give you the slightest." ”
Peggy exclaimed, "Didn't we say okay, Caitlin, you're going to give it your all?"
Catelyn had a complicated look on her face, but she didn't say a word, and let the two soldiers drag her out of the tent to be tortured.
Zhang Xiu said to another female general who was watching the battle: "Dong Bai, you will accompany your wife to practice below, remember, you don't need to keep your hands." ”
Dong Bai's face was a little hesitant: "However, Madame's cultivation is only ten heavens of the Xuan Rank, and we are nearly ten small realms apart." ”
Zhang Xiu said: "I'm standing here with Ashulu, so I don't need you to think about this problem. ”
When Dong Bai heard this, he groaned slightly, then took off his coat, jumped onto the wooden platform, picked up the wooden spear thrown by Caitlin just now, and said to Peggy: "Madam, offended!"
Peggy shouted: "Come on!" The wooden spear in his hand shook out a spear flower and rushed forward, Dong Bai used the spear handle to lure Peggy's spear edge away, and then raised his arms, the tip of the spear was pestled on Peggy's chest, Peggy snorted, retreated seven or eight steps in a row, and supported it with a wooden spear without falling.
Zhang Xiu shouted: "Come again! Remember, before thinking about attacking, you must defend in place!"
Peggy suppressed her churning blood and said loudly, "Okay!
After two or three rounds, he was hit hard again, fell to the ground, and got up for four or five minutes.
Fight again, be knocked down again, fight again, be knocked down again......
"Zhang Xiu's training method is too ruthless, this way, you don't have to wait for the day of the duel, Peggy can't hold on. ”
In the mid-air outside the camp, Yun Zhong, Zhao Qian, and Mo Li stood in the air, and it was Mo Li who spoke, looking at the state of Peggy on the wooden platform, Mo Li frowned.
Yunzhong said: "Zhang Xiu was born in Xiliang, Dong Zhuo used to train in the army, and he had the name of raising wolves, so Zhang Xiu's training was also extremely harsh, but for Peggy, it was also good, and now time was pressing, and her brother Miles was already a cultivator of the Fourteenth Heaven of the Xuan Rank, and he was much stronger than her, so Zhang Xiu used stronger people like Caitlin and Dong Bai to fight against Peggy, which was to improve her survivability in the duel." ”
Mo Li said: "However, the practice is too hard, and Peggy seems to have been injured a lot." ”
Yunzhong nodded: "In the evening, I will go to help her heal, and try to raise her cultivation to two small realms, now, continue to hand over the training to Zhang Xiu." ”
Mo Li and Zhao Qian also stopped talking, just looked at the wooden platform below with some concern.
Two hours later, Dong Bai, who had been beating Peggy, was also a little tired and was replaced by Zhang Xiu to rest, but Zhang Xiu immediately ordered a Rakshasa female general Kress to play.
Zhao Qian and Mo Li, who were watching the battle, were extremely worried, and Zhao Qian was already scolding Zhang Xiu angrily for that Xiliang wolf cub.
Yunzhong's face is also not good-looking, no matter what, Peggy is also his pillow person, in the past few years, although they have not been together for a long time, they have lingered many times, and they are not without feelings.
Yun Zhong raised his eyes and looked at the side of Pine City, and in the middle of the air above the city that was not very large, there were more than a dozen monstrous momentum rushing straight to Xiao Han.
"Eighteen Great Luo Golden Immortal Steps have come in one breath, it seems that the Olin Mountain side is also very serious about this duel. There was a murmur in the clouds.
"Interesting little guy!" Among the gods of Olin Mountain above Pine City, a tall and majestic white-haired man looked at the clouds standing in the air dozens of miles away with a smile on his face.
