[579] Bewildered
The sun is shining brightly on the clear sky of the mountain bay city. The sea breeze blows across the bay and sand, through the streets and alleys of the city, and into the lobby of the government. The cyan skirt of the female squirting on the floor swelled and churned like cyan waves under the sea breeze.
Facing Lin Cong's interested gaze, the female who was already real gold and was not afraid of fire refining nodded again with a smile and said slowly: "I am happy." ”。
After a pause, she looked around again and said, "Please arrange the venue." ”。 The implication is that I just feel that this lobby is a little too crowded.
Lin Cong, who knew about it, stood up and made a gesture of invitation to the door: "You don't have to deliberately pick a place, the courtyard in front of this lobby is quite spacious, just perform on the spot." ”。
The female didn't think much of it, turned around and looked out of the door along his fingers. Immediately, I saw that Ju Hong, who had left for a while, had already brought more than a dozen ghost officials and ghost officials of the Nine Shadows Kingdom who served in this city to the courtyard and stood still.
After thinking about it for a while, she knew that what Lin Cong muttered to Juhong just now was nothing more than asking the other party to find a few witnesses to watch this performance.
However, the female Lu just guessed correctly, and Lin Cong was a cautious person in doing this, and of course, he also told Ju Hong to send an order to the garrisons in and outside the city, so that they could see the fireball descending from the sky and not be like a great enemy, so as not to panic unnecessarily.
She turned around on the spot, smiled at Lin Cong, who had bypassed the table, and strode out the door.
The ghosts in the hall followed the female Lu Lin Cong, came to the courtyard and stood still, and saw the female Lu taking a deep breath in front of everyone's eyes, putting her arms across her chest, ten fingers or bent or straight, pinching out a trick, and then concentrating on the luck of the ghosts in the dantian.
The ghostly heart was silent, and the yin wind suddenly appeared at the feet of the female squirt with red glow in her eyes, and swirled around her body.
In the sky above her head, the fire gathered together, turning into a dazzling fireball, suspended in mid-air. The scorching and dazzling fireball is surrounded by waves and winds, and the light it emits can compete with the cloudy sun hanging in the sky.
The female who let go of her hand opened her lips and whispered a few incantations, then raised her right hand above her head, and flipped her palm to aim at the fireball that had gathered and not dispersed.
From afar, it looked as if she was trying to hold a fireball.
When the ghosts saw it, they were all stunned. Even Lin Cong, who had seen the world, couldn't help but widen his eyes, and an incredible color overflowed from his eyes little by little.
At this moment, the fireball in the air flickered slightly, and the red flames turned black in an instant. The heavenly fire, which is incomparably powerful and can burn all tangible things, appears in front of the eyes of the ghosts.
The sky sparked, and it has been proved that the female squire is not pretending.
The fireball changed with the girl's thoughts, and turned into a high-flying cormorant under the yin wind, and flew towards the courtyard in a swoop.
"Nulu, don't make a mistake!" Ju Hong looked shocked, thinking that Nulu was going to attack, he raised his hand while shouting angrily, and gave the guards around him a gesture to prepare to attack.
Then the guards in the courtyard immediately took off the firearms they were carrying on their backs and aimed at the female slug one after another.
Lin Cong didn't think so, he didn't feel that there was murderous aura in the ghost aura on the female lug, and immediately scolded the sergeants in a deep voice: "What are you panicking!"
When the scolding voice came to the ground, the cormorant that had been turned into a fire from the sky was only about ten feet away from the ground in the courtyard. The tumbling heat wave fell from the sky, instantly filling the entire courtyard, distorting the surrounding scenery and scorching the eyebrows and hair of the ghosts in the courtyard.
The female flicked her sleeves, and the breeze suddenly gave birth, spinning straight up.
In an instant, the Black Flame Gulfer, which was only two or three feet away from the ground, had disappeared in an instant.
The heat disappeared without a trace. The wind blew again, and the courtyard was immediately filled with refreshment and coolness. The nervous ghost officers and ghost soldiers before also breathed a sigh of relief.
The female who gasped a few times slowly turned around, looked at Lin Cong who was smiling again, pursed her lips and smiled, and asked, "Now Lord Lin should believe that I am not an impostor, right?"
"Of course. After Lin Cong bowed slightly, he beckoned to Ju Hong.
"Arrange the food and accommodation of the princesses well, and don't be lazy. After explaining to Juhong, he turned back to look at Nulu: "Please also ask the princess Nulu to rest first, and I will immediately arrange for a sergeant to escort you to my lord." ”。
"There's Lord Laurin. The female girl bent her knees slightly, and after making a blessing ceremony, she took the boss of the boat and followed Ju Hong, and slowly walked out of the palace.
"Come with me to the lobby. After seeing them leave, Lin Cong put away his smile and said aloud to the ghost officials around him: "Let's go and discuss how to escort the female to see the lord." ”......
In the big lonely city, in the back hall of the Chenghuang Yamen, Xiao Shizhu, who didn't know that the female leader had arrived in Dongyizhou, was holding a teacup and chatting happily with King Yama, who was sitting opposite him.
The two ghosts also hit it off at first sight, and King Yama admired Xiao Shizhu's foresight and calmness, while Xiao Shizhu admired King Yama's courage and unique insights.
Hearty laughter wafted out of the room with the doors and windows closed from time to time.
The guards standing at the gate of the courtyard couldn't help but be suspicious, and muttered, "How can the lord and a captive have such a kind conversation?"
"Shut up. Who does the lord talk to, and how does he have a good time? That's not something we should worry about. Shi Cassia on the side immediately shouted: "Let's just stand the post." ”。
The guards hurriedly put away their curiosity, and turned a deaf ear to the occasional laughter in the room.
In the back room, Xiao Shizhu put down the teacup, put away his smile at King Yama, who had completely relaxed, and asked, "King Yama, do you think you will interfere in the war between the Corpse Country and our country every day?"
"As far as I know, there has been a rebellion for many days, and I will not help the ghost country loyal to the Northern Yin Dynasty again. After taking a sip of tea, moistening his throat, the king slowly asked, "Does the king know why you robbed the grain and grass once before, and the Xudu army fighting outside Manjiang City had no rice to cook?"
"I remember that at that time, it was because I looted and burned a lot of grain and grass, so the Xudu army on the front line had no rice to cook. Xiao Shizhu replied casually, according to his calculations, but he burned at least nearly 800 grain trucks, and also stole hundreds of grain trucks of grain and grass.
More than 100,000 stone of food is gone, and the front-line army naturally has no rice to cook.
"That's because of repeated resistance. Immediately afterwards, the king of Yama told the truth: "For the safety of grain and grass, Emperor Xudu originally required that the grain and grass be sent to the front line as soon as they arrived in Dongyizhou, which was transported once a day. However, after many days, he insisted on accumulating grain and grass to 300,000 yuan before starting to distribute grain. Passing by on the way, he quietly withheld tens of thousands of stones of grain and grass than the corpse country and the black tooth. ”。
"When it came to us, there was no grain and grass in the barracks, so I used this as an excuse to detain 50,000 stone of grain and grass and did not report it. The rest was handed over to Bei Shu, and he took it to the front line together, and then it was robbed by you, so the front line army suddenly had no rice to cook. After saying this, King Yama raised his teacup and took a sip of tea, smashed it and said: "For various reasons, the front-line army has fallen into the danger of food shortage for more than ten days. ”。
"I see, so at that time, Emperor Xudu had already planned to let Emperor Xudu suffer defeat in Dongyizhou. Xiao Shizhu bowed his head slightly, and after thinking for a while, he said slowly: "From this point of view, he is indeed going to rebel against the Emperor Xudu." ”。
"Well, this may have something to do with Zong Tian's death. King Yama, who put down the teacup, took over and said: "Zong Tian and Zong Tian are friends of life and death, but Zong Tian died innocently and tragically in the hands of Emperor Xudu, so it made Zong Tian have a rebellion." ”。
The innocent and tragic death of Zong Tian he said, Xiao Shizhu probably knew, it was the incident of the fire dragon gun. In a way, Zong Tian is just a scapegoat.
However, for the Nine Shadows Kingdom, this foolish decision made by Emperor Xudu was a good thing; this removed an obstacle for Xiao Shizhu to attack the Northern Yin Dynasty, so Xiao Shizhu would not care if Zong Tian was wronged! Anyway, it was not him who killed Zong Tian in vain.
"Next, what does the king need to arrange for me, the 'general of the defeated army'?" After a moment of silence, King Yama asked again.
This is a question that he has been curious about since the moment he entered the iron prison car.
"Do you know why I keep asking you to be a prisoner cart with iron shackles and handcuffs?" Xiao Shizhu smiled indifferently, did not answer directly, but looked at King Yama with interest and asked.
After pondering for a while, King Yama lowered his voice and replied slowly and mysteriously: "It's to confuse his ghost, so that the ghosts who have seen me think that I am a prisoner of war, not the inner ghost you have planted in the Northern Yin Dynasty." ”。
"Yes, so you have to play your role as a prisoner of war. Xiao Shizhu shook his head a little.
At this time, the tea was almost drunk, and the snacks and fresh fruits were all eaten by the two of them. Xiao Shizhu put down his teacup, smiled and said meaningfully to King Yama: "What I want you to do next will be very, are you still willing to do it?"
"I will go to the soup for the Lord, and I will not hesitate. King Yama immediately got up and bowed without hesitation.
Xiao Shizhu showed a wicked smile on his face, waved his hand and motioned for King Yama to sit down, and deliberately sold Guan Zi and said: "What you have to do next will depend on your acting skills; ”。
"What is that?" asked King Yama, who was very curious, tilting his head slightly.
"I'll tell you about this later. Xiao Shizhu coughed, cleared his throat, and continued: "You are going to perform an attitude of being forced by me to surrender, and then being in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and then show Emperor Xudu that you are still secretly loyal to him. ”。
King Yama was a little confused, probably meaning that he knew that he wanted him to be loyal to the Nine Shadows Kingdom while quietly having secret contact with the Northern Yin Dynasty. What Xiao Shizhu asked him to do next must be to spread false information to the Northern Yin Dynasty.
But this kind of thing to confuse the Northern Yin Dynasty is not something that King Yama is unwilling to do, he is very happy. However, he didn't know how to secretly get in touch with the Northern Yin Dynasty.
It won't be long before the news of his defeat and capture will definitely spread to Xudu, once he can't find the channels and opportunities to secretly contact the Beiyin Dynasty for too long, the suspicious character of the Emperor Xudu will think that he has betrayed the Beiyin Dynasty.
Thinking of this, King Yama hurriedly explained his guesses and thoughts to Xiao Shizhu with a frown, and said a little worriedly: "In this way, the gains outweigh the losses." ”。
"Hehe, King Yama is really an urgent son as King Qin Guang said. Xiao Shizhu cocked Erlang's legs, his face was covered with a faint look of disapproval, and he slowly shook his head and said, "Once the news of your surrender by me reaches Xudu, Emperor Xudu will privately ask King Qin Guang to investigate your affairs." ”。
