Chapter 1068: Robbery
Tu Gou swept the dagger in his hand, if it was a year ago, he wouldn't even pay special attention to the changes in weapons, and naturally he could apply the various martial arts he had learned to a short blade, but now he felt very uncomfortable, thinking about how to make up for the lost length and how to surprise it.
That's what changed in a year, and Slaughter Dog began with the assumption that there was a living enemy in front of him.
Nie Zeng took matters into his own hands, dyeing his white hair jet black and carefully smoothing out the folds on his skin with fat powder, which took longer than usual.
Although he had been prepared, Tu Gou was still startled when he picked up the bronze mirror and looked inside, "ThisβIs this really me?"
Nie Zeng grinned, "I'm not too good at it, Tie Linglong is better at this." β
Tu Gou raised his left hand and patted it lightly on his face, and the person in the mirror made exactly the same movement, "Haha, do you guess what Old Man Mu would say if he was still alive?"
"I don't know, he's never merciless anyway. β
"He'll say, 'Old dog, look at what you draw, it's a little better than when you were younger,' or 'Old dog, you're like a gelding with a beard,' haha. β
"It's kind of like what an old man would say. Nie Zeng's mouth grinned wider.
Tu Gou put down the bronze mirror and said, "Nie Zeng, can I persuade you?"
Nie Zeng was stunned, he was not very familiar with Tugou, and he didn't like the lessons of the elders since he was a child, and he even went to Biyu City to avenge his uncle's family, without consulting his family, and he came when he said that he came, and he hummed embarrassedly, "Say it." β
Nie Zeng thought that Tu Gou was going to talk about Tie Linglong to himself, and he first had seven points of resistance in his heart, this elder of the Kongtong faction had never touched a woman in his life, and he spent half of his life in retreat and martial arts, so he was really not qualified to talk about human affairs.
But he guessed wrong, Tu Gou's eyes were solemn, and it was quite incongruous with the face that suddenly became younger, "Nie Zeng, I think your surname is very good, but it is too early to step into the rivers and lakes." β
"Killers have been trained since childhood, and the Dragon King was younger than me when he escaped from Jinpeng Castle. Nie Zeng was a little confused, in Hu Shining's opinion, he was already a little old when he was trained.
Tu Gou shook his head, "The surname Wu I said has nothing to do with the killer, let's put it bluntly, I don't think you are suitable to be a killer." β
Hu Shining also said something similar, but Nie Zeng still showed a stubborn and unconvinced look, and Tu Gou hurriedly changed his words: "Actually, what I want to ask is, do you want to ** higher and more advanced martial arts?"
Nie Zeng was really surprised this time, opened his mouth to look at the slaughtered dog, and stammered: "When, of course, you have to teach me ......"
"It's not me, it's not easy to teach martial arts, I don't have that ability, but I can recommend you to go to the Kongtong faction, where you can get in touch with some ...... Different martial arts may not work so quickly, but after you learn them, you will find that the beauty is no worse than the Dragon King's Dead Man's Sutra. β
Nie Zeng's mind was in a mess, "The Kongtong faction is in the Central Plains, I have to leave the Western Regions, and there are ......"
"You have even been to Beiting, let alone the Central Plains?" Tu Gou took out a letter that had already been written from his arms and put it on the table, "I won't say much, it is you who make the decision, take this letter with you, and whenever you go to the Kongtong faction, someone will accept you." Ah, by the way, don't judge the Kongtong faction based on my martial arts, I'm not the most powerful person in my sect, and ...... Walked the crooked road for decades, hehe. β
Slaughtering the dog's self-deprecation failed to make the young man laugh, Nie Zeng looked at the envelope on the table, and asked in surprise: "Slaughter the dog, aren't you going back to the Kongtong faction?"
"I will never step into the Central Plains again, the grievances of the Western Regions have to end in the Western Regions, and I can't bring them back to Kongtong Mountain and add trouble to this sect. β
Nie Zeng suddenly came to his senses.
The Dragon King only led six guards, and Tu Dog was one of them, and like the others, he wore the armor of the Dragon Army's soldiers, and even if Tu Pian Pian was reincarnated, he would not recognize this middle-aged man in his thirties and forties as his younger brother.
Tu Gou learned a lot of tricks from Old Man Mu, such as using his spare eyes when observing someone publicly, so as not to arouse suspicion.
Pang Jing on the opposite side was urging the horse to retreat slowly, dozens of Central Plains guards were on guard, more than half of the eyes were on the Dragon King, and the others were watching the six guards of the Dragon King.
Pang Jing was annoyed and angry because he had been deceived, and let out a series of curses, before waving his hand and ordering the guards to attack, wasting a lot of time.
Everything was as expected, the guards on both sides had already gathered momentum in advance, and as soon as Pang Jing raised his finger, everyone released the reins and rushed to the master's horse, both for protection and to facilitate the attack.
Pang Jing's guards had an absolute advantage in numbers, but they had not yet comprehended Pang Jing's true intentions, and they were deeply jealous of the Dragon King, although it was rumored that the Dragon King had also lost his skills, but everyone preferred to adopt cautious tactics - to besiege rather than attack.
There was only one strange thing: one of the Dragon King's guards suddenly lost his head.
Even in broad daylight, such an eerie scene was enough to frighten people, the full suit of armor still stood on the horse's back, even the single knife at the waist, only the top human head disappeared in the blink of an eye.
The surprise only lasted for a very short time, and the Central Plains guards behind had not even noticed the abnormality, and were still shouting loudly, and the remaining five guards on the Dragon King's side turned a blind eye to this, drawing their swords to defend themselves, as if the sixth person had never existed.
"Kill the Dragon King, there is a reward!" Pang Jing roared, revealing the most important purpose in his heart, but he didn't get anything, and it became a shackle around his neck, which was a humiliation he had never encountered.
There seemed to be something behind him, Pang Jing was impatient to get rid of it, and his heart was suddenly shocked, and his whole body froze.
Tu Gou thought of Old Man Mu again, it was with that old bastard that he learned the trick of galloping under the horse's belly, the difference between the two figures was quite large, but Old Man Mu once swore that he was tall and handsome, he could still use this trick, and Tu Gou suffered a lot for this.
But this trick did work, and the attention of the Central Plains guards was attracted by the dragon king, and the slaughter dog was able to jump under the horse extremely quickly, passing through the middle of the flying hooves, and as for the armor, it was originally only the front piece, and it was fixed to the saddle.
If it had been a year ago, he would have made the choice of the Kongtong Sect Elders: leap to his feet, trying to get over the heads of the crowd and confront the interceptor.
Now, he pressed the cold dagger against the enemy's neck, and silently thanked the old man Mu for his methods and the dragon king's trust in him.
"Stop!" Pang Jing shouted, even he didn't know who this order was for.
The Central Plains guards turned back in a panic and were all surprised to find that the protector of the Western Regions had fallen into the hands of the enemy.
"I'm a dog butcher, a personal vendetta, and I have nothing to do with others. Tu Gou said loudly, and the whole person almost hid behind Pang Jing, revealing only one eye and half a dagger.
"Dragon King, you said it...... You're going to let me go. The exuberant sense of humiliation disappeared in an instant, and Pang Jing only felt a palpitation, this was the first time in his life that he was threatened by a soldier, and the words of submission came out of his mouth involuntarily.
A Central Plains guard had a good personal relationship with the Kongtong faction, although he didn't recognize the appearance of the slaughtering dog, but he could hear his voice, "Slaughtering the dog, are you crazy? You are from the Central Plains, how can you treat the huge person like this? Even if you don't care about your surname, don't you even care about the Kongtong faction?"
"No one is allowed to come. Slaughtering the dog said in a deep voice, with a slight force on his hand, Pang Jing was forced, stretched his neck, and raised his head higher, "Slaughtering a dog is slaughtering a dog, from now on I will no longer be a member of the Kongtong faction, nor will I be a subordinate of the Dragon King, and no one can control me." β
Pang Jing maintained a stiff posture, unable to speak, the Central Plains guard still couldn't believe his eyes, the elder of the dignified Kongtong faction would do such a rebellious thing, "Slow." He turned to the Dragon King, "Dragon King, you brought the dog slaughter. β
"Everyone has the right to vengeance. Gu Shenwei said that in the face of a group of strangers, this is one of his very few truths, "Even gods and Buddhas can't control it." β
Gu Shen turned the horse, he had nothing to do, patted the horse forward, and the several Central Plains guards who came around to block the way hesitantly got out of the way, watching the dragon king and the guards go farther and farther.
Tu Gou was alone, without the slightest fear in his heart, Tu Pianpian would definitely object to his current behavior, but he no longer needed his sister's instructions, "Central Plains people." He spoke to dozens of guards, most of whom came from various sects in the Central Plains and used to be his "fellow martial artists": "You all have my sister's blood on your hands, and you want to watch me take revenge today." β
Gu Shenwei actually had a small satisfaction in his heart, even if he witnessed Shangguan Fa being killed, he didn't feel this way, the hatred of slaughtering dogs was very simple, and Gu Shenwei's road to revenge had only crossed a mountain, and there were higher peaks in front of him, but his enthusiasm was far from being as high as before.
Didn't the Sutra of the Dead solidify the hatred in my heart? Why did I still lose that powerful power? Could it be the effect of the temporary loss of power?
Gu Shenwei returned to the ranks of the Shule army, and a lot of news was waiting: Dugu Xian personally led his troops to Qianqi Pass, preparing to take the eastern gateway of Biyu City as soon as possible, and the Shulitu army, which was still on the way, also sent messengers, they would obey the will of the Dragon King, not close to the Western Regions, but turn around and march westward, keeping a distance from the Central Plains army, and at the same time sweeping away those tribes that still did not obey.
Gu Shenwei handled affairs on horseback, led the army on the return journey, and did not go far to usher in the messenger of the Central Plains.
The messenger humbly sued for peace, claiming that the Central Plains army would leave Biyu City without a single person, and asked for only one, asking the Dragon King to come forward and rescue the protector of the Western Regions who had been slaughtered by the Central Plains people.
The messenger deliberately emphasized the identity of the Central Plains who slaughtered the dog, to show that he did not blame the dragon king for the robbery.
Tu Gou did not kill Pang Jing immediately, but rode with him and also drove towards Biyu City.
Gu Shenwei did not give a clear answer, he and Tugou had reached a consensus, and this matter would eventually be resolved.
When the Shule army returned to Biyu City in the afternoon, they were greeted not only by hundreds of thousands of obedient residents, but also by the news of the murder of the lotus girl, and everyone said that this female demon was ready to replace the old man Mu.
