Chapter 199: Soldiers Descend on the City
When Chen Jianping heard this, he was overjoyed in his heart, and secretly thought: "Although this trick takes a lot of effort, it still works!"
Immediately waved his hand at Nalan Yue, flashed into the backstage, and according to the plan, Nalan Yue quickly changed into a set of men's clothes and slipped out of the crowd.
Seeing this, Wu Datong immediately appeared on the stage and announced loudly: "Everyone, please go back, the three-day deadline has arrived, let's say goodbye, there will be a period later!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a sad sigh in the crowd, Wu Datong held his head in his hands, and in a panic, he jumped off the stage with celery, radish and cabbage leaves flying in the sky, and took advantage of the chaos to blend into the crowd and slip away.
Almost all the men in the entire Lingjiang City were suffering from lovesickness, and they refused to leave one by one around the ring, and continued to add new content to the radish and cabbage that had already piled up.
The next moment, on the ruins of the Guanglai teahouse in Lingjiang City, the owner of the teahouse erected a huge round platform, on which all kinds of things were placed, only to hear the boss shout loudly: "Come on, everyone, come quickly! This is the chair where the beauty has sit, this is the hair of the beauty, and the fan used by the beauty at this time!"
Suddenly, all the men in Lingjiang City seemed to have found a new direction, holding handfuls of silver tickets in their hands, and rushed madly towards the Guanglai Teahouse, smashing the large round platform set up by the owner of the teahouse.
Everyone rushed to the owner of Guanglai Teahouse like crazy, and the most sought-after thing was naturally that he was holding a black silk in his hand claiming to be a beauty's hair.
At this critical moment, when life and death were at stake, I only heard a loud shout, and everyone followed the prestige, only to see that it was the proprietress of the Yuelai Inn where Nalan Yue had stayed in the past few days.
I saw the proprietress standing on the windowsill on the second floor, holding a wooden basin in her hand, and said loudly: "Listen, this is the beauty's footwashing water, if you want it, take the money to buy it, and the highest bidder will get it!"
The teahouse owner was saved!
The Yuelai Inn is crowded!
Chen Jianping, Nalan Yue, Ji Xiaowu, and Zhao Dazhuang met in the predetermined Luoma Market in Dongcheng, which was a relatively remote place in the east of Lingjiang City.
The four of them waited for a while, and when they didn't see Wu Datong coming, they were already extremely impatient, Nalan Yue cursed repeatedly, and at this moment, they saw Wu Datong hanging vegetable leaves all over his body, and ran over in embarrassment.
Ji Xiaowu glanced at Wu Datong, smiled, and said to this Wu Datong: "This brother, the little brother has no intention of offending, please forgive me!"
Wu Datong sighed, but before he could react, he saw Ji Xiaowu frowning and asking Chen Jianping, "Big brother, why did you find such a product as an apprentice?"
Chen Jianping was slightly stunned and said, "Second brother, you don't know, he ......"
Before Chen Jianping could finish speaking, Zhao Dazhuang said in a rough voice: "Big brother, what the second brother said is, where did you pick up such a person?" After speaking, he smiled at Wu Datong and said, "No offense, forgive me!"
Wu Datong said helplessly: "It's also in front of me, can you take into account my feelings, are your famous and decent disciples usually so upright?"
Chen Jianping waved his hand and said: "Two virtuous brothers, don't look at him obscenely, but he is a strange person, this person's right ear is born to hear very far, rare in the world, very powerful!"
Wu Datong smiled and said, "Thank you Master for the compliment, but you blurted out the word 'obscene' so naturally, don't you think it's against your will......?"
Speaking of this, as soon as Wu Datong raised his head, he saw that among the three people in front of him, Chen Jianping naturally didn't need to say that he was tall and handsome, with the air of a king.
Ji Xiaowu's eyebrows are clear and beautiful, with a bookish atmosphere, although his eyebrows are thin, the corners of his eyebrows reveal a heroic spirit, which can be described as a beautiful man.
Next to Zhao Dazhuang, although the name is rustic, but the life is tall and big, with a national face, cold eyebrows, and a righteous body.
Wu Datong's words after "I" were stunned, and Nalan Yue said with a smile: "Come on, it's not your fault that you are like this, don't humiliate yourself here, hurry up and talk about the situation!"
Speaking of this, several people went to the middle, Ji Xiaowu, Zhao Dazhuang, and Wu Datong each talked about the situation they checked, and the three of them followed a few people who were very suspicious.
Chen Jianping pondered for a moment and said, "In this way, only one by one has been investigated, starting with Xiao Wu's check!" Saying that, he and Nalan Yue stood up at the same time and walked away, but suddenly Ji, Zhao, and Wu squatted in place and did not move.
I saw Wu Datong looking at Ji and Zhao, and said with a smile: "Two, do you dare to gamble?"
Ji Xiaowu rolled his eyes and said, "What to bet on?
Wu Datong took out ten taels of silver from his arms, stretched it out in his hand, and said: "I bet that the two of you found not a spy, but what I found, one pays ten, how about it?"
Ji Xiaowu and Zhao Dazhuang looked at each other and smiled, slapped Wu Datong's hand, and said, "Okay, bet!"
Chen Jianping looked at it and said angrily: "When is it, you still have the heart to gamble on this matter!"
As soon as Chen Jianping's words fell, he saw Nalan Yue next to him leaning over, walked over, and whispered: "Count me in, I bet that the three of you are not secret agents!"
Chen Jianping stared at these people helplessly, Nalan Yue turned around, walked to Chen Jianping's side, and smiled playfully at Chen Jianping, extremely gorgeous, Chen Jianping whispered: "I bet you are wrong!"
Saying that, a few people quietly came to the corner of the street, Ji Xiaowu nodded in front of him, watched for a while, and saw a man sitting next to the blacksmith shop on the west side of the middle of the street, which was facing the gate of the official mansion of Lingjiang City, and saw the man in a daze there with nothing to do.
Ji Xiaowu turned around and whispered: "There are five or six people in this group, the one next to the blacksmith shop is the leader, when the competition recruits relatives, all the men in the city, young and old, go to the ring, even if they don't go, they ask around, they are very concerned, but these people are indifferent, and their sneaky behavior is very suspicious!"
At this time, Wu Datong lay on the ground, crawled to the front, turned the corner of the wall and looked at the blacksmith shop for a while, smiled, moved back excitedly, and then lay on his back on the ground, everyone bent down and bowed their heads, just to meet him.
I saw Wu Datong smile happily, and whispered happily: "Wrong, wrong, there must be something wrong with this person, but it is definitely not a spy!"
Ji Xiaowu was furious when he heard this, and said, "Why do you say that, you only glanced at him, do you know that he is not a secret agent?"
Wu Datong said proudly: "This is natural, you famous disciples, if you say that I am naturally inferior to you in terms of internal strength and martial arts, but you are greatly inferior to me in this street matter! I know that there is something wrong with this person at a glance, but he is by no means a secret agent......
At this moment, just as the hinterland of the Central Plains is turbulent and the undercurrent is surging, on the second Daguan Valley Pass in the Central Plains, tens of thousands of soldiers are wearing armor and saddles on horses, and the flags are standing in a forest, and the momentum is high.
The blades in each person's hand, regardless of the spear or short sword, are wrapped in a layer of golden light, as far as the eye can see, the city wall, the military camp town, everywhere is shining with golden light, especially on the top of the city wall on both sides, the golden yellow spreads out, like a yellow dragon hovering in the valley pass.
And what made the soldiers even happier was that yesterday afternoon, three thousand light horsemen rushed one hundred and fifty miles, spying on the evil beast forward, and fighting fiercely with the evil beast forward for half an hour, and the result was just as Xuanlin Daoist said, after the tiger wolf evil spirit conjured by the tiger power evil beast was hacked to death by a blade wrapped in golden light, it could not be recovered.
When all the officers and men heard the news, they were even more confident, and this morning five or six thousand people from the rivers and lakes around the valley pass who practiced martial arts came to take refuge and were willing to guard the valley pass together.
At this moment, General Wang Chen, Dao Commander Xuanlin, military advisors and all the sergeants gathered on the main city, General Wang Chen gave people a calm and calm feeling, and saw his expressionless eyes looking far away.
On the horizon in the distance, there was a dense black line high and low, and finally, in the slightly cool north wind, there was a faint roar, and the smell of blood and blood came to the face.
In the face of this devastating momentum, everyone's reaction was unexpected, and there was no despair and fear as expected or imagined, on the contrary, every sergeant had a surge of excitement about the imminent war, and everyone burst out of a bloody nature, and once the most belligerent part of people's hearts was stimulated, how could it not be a disaster?
There was a loud thunderclap, the solar term was the end of autumn, but the sky was unusually cloudy, as if the heavens were also infected by this tragic atmosphere of destruction, and the downpour poured down violently, adding a touch of wildness to the atmosphere when it was already excited!
Finally, the soldiers are coming to the city, and the big war is about to break out!
