Trapped Beast Chapter 246: First Encounter
Canghedian is near the water, and there are countless large and small rivers in the vicinity. Starting from the post where Su Yi was going, the destination of this trip was on the ground, but he couldn't bypass a river. The easiest and quickest way is to cross the river by boat at the ferry.
However, because the choice was too simple, Su Yi subconsciously developed a sense of crisis. The ferry port to Kamitaki is almost a must-stop, so the route you are traveling is too easy to guess. He believed that since Chaotian Pavilion could catch up here, he must have done some homework. Speculate on the whereabouts of the lurking ambush, no problem, have to be on guard.
It's just that the dilemma in front of us is whether to advance or retreat.
To enter, is to know that there are tigers in the mountains. Retreat, to say that the good thing is to judge the situation and know the difficulty and retreat, and to say that it is difficult to hear is to escape from the battle, afraid of the people of Chaotian Pavilion.
Although Chaotian Pavilion was something that Gui Yangzi emphasized to avoid, Nanxuanke had also said that Su Yi lacked toughness. If you retreat in the face of setbacks, and show cowardice before you fight, I am afraid that you will lose your mood. If the mental balance is not properly adjusted and a demonic obstacle is generated, it is not conducive to cultivation.
"Brother, since there is an unknown danger ahead, then we can't go away. Zhi Yuan explained. Most of her talent has lost its effect, and she is also very annoyed in her heart.
Su Yi shook his head and said, "This line is something you have worked hard to track down all the way, and you can't give up." Moreover, to bring down Wan Qingxiang, there is still a lack of key evidence, and no suspicious point can be let go. Wan Qingxiang is such a shrewd person, the route of the goods, and the foothold must be exquisite. This Kamitaki is definitely a trip. β
"That's... Brother, let Zhi Kite investigate again. Maybe this time... The kite can go in human form, which should be able to disguise some of it. β
Su Yi shook his head again and said, "I can't let you go on any more adventures." They only know that there are scouts around me now, but they must not guess that this scout is a little beauty. β
Two flashes of crimson appeared on the cheeks of the iris for a short time.
Su Yi only habitually took Meng Lang occasionally, but he didn't notice the change in her expression, and continued: "Zhiyuan, I'm afraid I'm going to wronged you during this time. During this period of confrontation with Chaotian Pavilion, you can just hide yourself and leave me alone. How important you are to me, I told you, do you remember?"
"Brother, Zhi Kite remembers..."
"Just remember. Su Yi touched her head with a smile and said, "Then let's go." β
Zhi Kite nodded obediently, paused again, and said "Zhi Kite is not aggrieved", before turning into a bird and throwing herself into the forest.
Su Yi took a deep breath, exhaled turbidity, and rode his horse towards the ferry not far away.
He said in his heart that what should come is always coming, and it is just when his injuries are healed and he can still grasp some initiative, he will go to meet these Chaotian Pavilion people for a while.
The ferry was very deserted, as if it had a premonition of a storm, and everyone was gone. Only on the tea stall on the side sat many people, scattered and scattered, each at the same table. But they were all eyeing each other, looking at the approaching horsemen.
Su Yi tied the horse to the side casually, glanced at the tea stall, and saw that there were people sitting at each table, so he picked Zhao Rui's table and sat down.
"Chaotian Pavilion?" he asked casually.
Zhao Rui was obviously stunned, and asked rhetorically, "How do you know?"
"I'm just asking. Su Yi said lightly, "So, you admit it?"
Zhao Rui was stunned again, then laughed and replied, "I'm not, but they are." β
"Then you...?" asked Su Yi again.
"You can be when I am... A strategist. β
"Strategist..."
Presumably this person is the "smart man" in this team, Su Yi said in his heart. And when it came to the strategist, Su Yi thought of Master Jia again, and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?" Zhao Ruiqi said.
"Nothing, just remembering an interesting person. β
"Oh, what's interesting, would you like to hear about it?"
"I don't know if Brother Tai knows Master Jia in the capital?"
"Master Jia Shiyu under the command of the Ministry of War?"
"yes... He says he likes to be strategic, and so must you?"
"Are you familiar with him?" asked Zhao Rui.
"It's okay, it's not too familiar. Su Yi took a cup, dragged the teapot in front of him, and unceremoniously poured himself a drink.
He thought to himself that if he counted his relationship with Yue Wushuang, then his relationship with Master Jia should be closer.
Zhao Rui didn't mind his noisy behavior, and said: "I can't hide it, Master Jia is the person I admire the most. I have been studying the military book for ten years, so that I can become a strategist like him. β
"Isn't this a coincidence?" Su Yi suddenly slapped the table and said, "Since you worship Master Jia, and I have a good relationship with Master Jia, then we can barely be regarded as our own people, right?
Zhao Rui smiled and said, "No." β
Su Yi couldn't help but shake his head and said, "You're too uninteresting." β
Zhao Rui explained: "It's not that I don't want to help you, it's that I can't command these people." Have you ever seen a strategist give orders to a general? β
"Besides, the Yueshang Book that Master Jia is following is from the prince's faction. Below, it is Zhao Rui, the son of King Huai'an, who naturally belongs to the same faction as the eldest prince like his father. Therefore, he and Master Jia are friends and foes, and they can't talk about their own family with you. β
"By the way, I've been chatting for so long, and I haven't asked my brother Taigao's name. β
Su Yi said in his heart, why do you ask knowingly, but his face pretended not to know like Zhao Rui, and said, "Under Su Yi." β
"Brother Su, I'm glad I will..."Zhao Rui arched his hand at him, "What I said just now are some open secrets, Brother Su can know if you ask casually." β
Su Yi nodded and said, "Since your prince and Lord Yue belong to two factions, and you are mixed with Chaotian Pavilion, does it also mean that the military department and Chaotian Pavilion are also hostile relations?"
Zhao Rui didn't expect Su Yi to think of this so quickly, he seemed to have some understanding of the relationship between the forces of the DPRK and China, and he was slightly surprised in his heart, but his face did not change, and he said vaguely: "Brother Su said that he laughed, whether it is the Ministry of War or Chaotian Pavilion, they are all from the Great Song Kingdom and the Son of Heaven, so how can there be a hostile relationship?"
Su Yi didn't ask any more questions, and said, "Brother Zhao is right, but I was a little reckless when I spoke. β
"Don't get in the way, be straightforward and fast-talking, and only then can you show your true temperament. Zhao Rui waved his hand and said, "Can I ask Brother Su a question?"
"Brother Zhao, please speak. β
"There are so many tables here, why do you want to pick my table?"
Su Yi was drinking tea, seemingly careless, but in fact he was observing the every move of the people around him.
"It's simple," he replied, "because Brother Zhao seems to be the weakest." And at this distance, I can easily kill you without using my hands. After talking to you for so long, I found that taking you hostage seemed just enough. β
Zhao Rui was not frightened by Su Yi's intimidation at all, but his face was as usual, and he smiled: "It's better to be famous than to see it, Brother Su is really an interesting person." β
Zhao Rui could ignore Su Yi's threat, but the people in Chaotian Pavilion on the side couldn't. The first is arrogance, and the second is that Zhao Rui's status as a prince is too noble. If something happens under their noses, even if Chaotian Pavilion is the Chaotian Pavilion of the Son of Heaven, it will inevitably pull a few of them to behead them and give an explanation to King Huai'an.
The people of Chaotian Pavilion all stood up at once, showed their blades, and glared angrily at Su Yi.
The owner of the tea stall was so frightened that he hurriedly hid behind the big water tank. As everyone knows, if he fights, no matter where he hides, it will be a dead end, and only by escaping far away can he save his life.
Zhao Rui hurriedly reassured: "Don't get excited, don't get excited, didn't you say that you should let me have a good chat with Brother Su first?" I believe that Brother Su will not attack a weak person like me." β
When everyone heard this, they reluctantly sat down again, but they still had their blades in their hands, ready to strike at any time.
Su Yi smiled: "Do you think that if you say that, I really won't do anything to you?"
"Will you?"
Su thought about it for a while, and finally replied truthfully: "No." β
"You see, my vision is still okay, and I can trust Brother Su's character. Zhao Rui said as he lifted the teapot and filled Su Yi with a cup of tea. As the prince of the royal family, it is already commendable to be able to do this.
I heard him say again: "Actually, I really just want to meet and talk to Brother Su today." But I definitely don't want to do it, and I ask Brother Su to believe me. β
Su Yi drank all the tea he had poured in one gulp, as if he was drinking, showing the greatest kindness.
"Thank you Brother Zhao for the tea, now that we have met and talked about the day, can I go first?"
"Of course, Brother Su, please. β
Zhao Rui really didn't break his promise and got fat.
However, Duan Feng was not so good at talking, so when Su Yi was about to leave, he also stood up, blocked the way, and said, "The young master said that you can go, but I don't." β
Su Yi looked at Zhao Rui suspiciously, and said, "The dog raised by your Huai'an Mansion is so disobedient?"
The trick of sowing discord is always simple and easy to use, and it has no technical content for him, so he will come as soon as he opens his mouth. Sure enough, a hint of displeasure flashed in Zhao Rui's eyes, even if he thought he was a strategist, he was just humble, and his identity was always there. Duan Feng's actions were already considered to have lost his face, but he still restrained his anger very well, and he didn't intend to embarrass Duan Feng in front of Su Yi.
It's just that Su Yi's words made it a little difficult for him to answer, and it was obviously very inappropriate to answer, "He is not the dog of our prince's mansion". As long as you follow his words, you can't say anything. Zhao Rui will not fall into the trap easily, and if he wants to maintain the relationship with Duan Feng at this time, he can only sacrifice the image he had established in front of Su Yi before, and said stubbornly: "Brother Su, Brother Duan is right. I also told you just now, I'm just a strategist, and I can't command the Heavenly Pavilion. β
"Boy, do you hear me? Duan Feng said, "Obediently follow me back to Chaotian Pavilion, I can spare your life." β
Su Yi sneered: "Are you all naΓ―ve people in Chaotian Pavilion? β
Being ridiculed, Duan Feng's face changed, the arm holding the knife tightened, and his muscles skyrocketed.
The two sides are tense and the battle is on the verge of breaking out.
