Ding Ning's face was calm and gentle, but in the eyes of these girls, it was terrifying to the extreme.

They looked at the daggers that fell around them, felt the soreness and swelling of their arms, and two of them even cried in fear.

"Are you afraid of me or your master?"

"If you are afraid of me, you don't need to be afraid, because I will not do anything to you at all, and if you are afraid of your lord, you don't need to be afraid, because I am better than your lord. ”

Ding Ning looked at these girls and said two words.

These two sentences were very simple, but they were extremely useful, and even the two girls who were crying in fear immediately stopped crying and only sobbed slightly.

"Are you really more powerful than our island master?"

The girl who spoke at the beginning looked at Ding Ning suspiciously and asked.

Ding Ning nodded, smiled, and said, "The entire Jiaodong County has been controlled by me, do you think I am more powerful than your island master?"

In fact, the army of the Great Chu Dynasty commanded by Concubine Zhao Xiang has not yet entered Jiaodong County, he and Lin Zhujiu have only mastered most of the lifeblood of the Zheng family's gate valves, and have not achieved real and complete occupation and control, but this is only a matter of time, and he can see that these girls are very simple, and they should not see much, for these girls, Jiaodong County is probably the outside world in their subconscious. Such a simplistic and violent argument will be more effective than any persuasion.

Sure enough, when these girls heard this, they looked at Ding Ning with completely different eyes.

"The island master is in the city, and I will take you there. The girl who spoke at first gritted her teeth and said immediately.

Is there a city in this place?

This was the first thought that came to Shouchen's mind, but then he was relieved.

Since the edge of this island is full of docks, and it is so prosperous, it is reasonable that there is a city on this island, and the consciousness of the wild and barren land in the subconscious mind before should be completely eliminated.

Follow these girls forward, along the way are wooden plank road up, the island is uneven sand and gravel, but the plank road walking is extremely smooth, there are many pedestrians along the way, different costumes, in the eyes of Shouchen Some costumes are naturally very strange, but in the eyes of these pedestrians along the way, Ding Ning in a cloth robe and Shouchen in a robe are also strange, and the eyes that look at them along the way are strange.

Just walked a few miles to the island, Shouchen saw what these girls said, "In the city." ”

It was indeed a complete city, with walls made of white reef taller than most of the cities of the dynasties, but the city was not very large, and it seemed to be able to accommodate tens of thousands of people.

However, unlike the castles of various dynasties, the buildings inside this castle are also strange, and the density is very large, crowded together, and the east side is a temple that is particularly large compared to these buildings, which directly acts as a wall on that side.

I don't know what paint is applied to the whole hall, it is dark blue in the sun, although in the eyes of Shouchen, the appearance is still a little strange, but the momentum is as magnificent as a mountain, you don't need to think about it to guess that it must be the residence of General Guo Dong before.

Entering this city, there are many men and women in sight who are dressed similarly to these girls who lead the way, and they all have vitality fluctuations on their bodies, and they are like a layer of fish scales on their bodies under the sunlight.

From the time they fought with Ding Ning in the port outside, these girls who led the way have not been reported by the way, but these cultivators in this city looked at Ding Ning and Shouchen with a fearful expression, as if they had already known the identities of the two.

Ding Ning ignored nothing, and walked leisurely behind these girls, and soon arrived in front of the blue hall in the city.

Unlike the people in the entire city who cowered and avoided him and guarded the dust, on the steps in front of the blue hall, there were two cultivators standing respectfully, waiting for his arrival.

The first person on the left is a gray-haired man, with a tall posture and straight eyebrows, giving people an extraordinarily calm and solemn feeling.

It's just that he didn't belong here in the first place, because he was wearing a yellow robe with the logo of the Zheng clan in Jiaodong County.

The first one on the right is dressed in a dark blue, very ornate, inlaid with many precious stones, and wears a gold crown on his head that is also set with precious stones, like an emperor.

When Ding Ning walked to the road they were directly on, there was still a distance of more than ten zhang from them, and the two of them were carrying luggage at the same time.

The man, who was slightly younger and looked like an emperor, directly removed the golden crown he was wearing, and said, "I am willing to surrender." ”

Shouchen was stunned.

The girls who had arrived in front of this hall and didn't dare to lead the way at all, as well as the cultivators who were hiding in the surrounding alleys, suddenly heard these words and froze.

Ding Ning frowned slightly.

He didn't respond, just glanced at the gray-haired man on the left who was wearing a yellow robe from Jiaodong County, and then asked, "Zheng Xu?"

The gray-haired man was a little surprised, but immediately replied solemnly, "Exactly." ”

"You are General Guo Dong's disciple, Wu Donglian?" Ding Ning then turned his head to look at the man dressed as an emperor and asked.

The man held the golden crown in his hand, still did not get up, and said respectfully: "Exactly." ”

"He wants to surrender directly, what about you?" Ding Ning turned his head to look at Zheng Xu again, and laughed: "What do you mean?"

Zheng Xu said respectfully: "Since Mr. Wang is reborn, there is no chance to fight at all, I want to talk to Mr., if Mr. is not disgusted, I want to exchange some things for the lives of some people in Jiaodong County." ”

Ding Ning shook his head simply, "I dislike it." ”

Zheng Xu was stunned.

"Don't you want to hear about it, what do I have in Jiaodong County?" he stayed for a while, looked at Ding Ning in disbelief and said.

"I don't want to. Ding Ning shook his head again, then looked at him and laughed again.

Zheng Xu's brows furrowed, his complexion did not change, but there was some evil aura between his eyebrows, "Why?" he asked very seriously looking at Ding Ning.

"Zheng Sleeve used to know me very well, but for a while, I also knew her very well, and I also knew a lot of things about Jiaodong County from her. Ding Ning said lightly: "I know that there are a few people in Jiaodong County who she is unwilling to trade, and one of them is you." And I later learned that you were also one of the teachers in Jiaodong County who taught her. ”

Zheng Xu listened to these words calmly, then slowly lowered his hand, looked at the sky above, and said, "I didn't expect you to know this from her, it seems that she does have some feelings for you." ”

"You played a good game. Ding Ning didn't answer his words, but said sarcastically: "Both of them are people I want to kill, one deals with me, and the other surrenders directly." ”

"This chess game is very difficult, if we still kill you, what will our enemies think in the future?"

Ding Ning's gaze fell on the faces of Zheng Xu and Wu Donglian, looked at their eyelashes that were constantly fluttering, and then said: "Just like a general on the battlefield who does not accept surrender and slaughters the city at every turn, no one will want to surrender, and if he encounters him, he will fight to the death to the end." But if I don't kill you for the sake of profit, what will the people of the world think?"

Zheng Xu's brows twitched slightly, he didn't hide it, and he didn't explain anything, because he knew that in front of a person like Ding Ning, any explanation of words would be superfluous.

"But you're wrong. ”

Ding Ning laughed, and then said: "Because the strength is so strong that there is no need to think about some possibilities of the enemy in the future. And the most important thing is that I do things very directly, if I feel that there is a possibility of accepting reconciliation, I will go directly to the sword order first and say, I will not let the enemy's thoughts waver. ”
