Chapter 3: The Tempest (I)

"Click-la-" A bright lightning bolt streaked across the blood-stained night sky, and the raindrops were reflected in a crystal white, dancing wildly and throwing themselves into the world, like rushing to a feast.

This light from the night sky also illuminated the Langyu Pavilion as bright as day, and dozens of arm-thick butter wax swayed and crackled under the storm.

Xiang Yu knelt behind his mother, resisting the urge to yawn to watch the ghost master play against Fan Jian, while Wang Rou had already fallen asleep because she was bored.

The ghost master and Fan Jian were very slow, Xiang Yu sipped the tea, and when the cup of tea was drunk to the bottom, he didn't see an extra child on the chessboard.

Waves of heralds and scouts kept coming in and out like marquees, bringing back the battle situation outside, and hurriedly left with Fan Jian's latest orders.

Others are also busy, in the center of the main hall is a huge imperial city sand table, the palace building rockery trees are lifelike, Shi Yifu is directing two eunuchs to place battle flags, repeatedly deducing the dynamics of the two sides.

Seeing all this, Xiang Yu felt very down-to-earth, even if the sound of the tragic battle penetrated the rain curtain all the time, she did not feel the slightest fear.

She had never seen her father's conquest of the world back then, but she thought that she would be like this, strategizing and winning thousands of miles away.

At this time, a scout hurriedly walked in and whispered a few words in Fan Jian's ear.

Fan Jian's expression usually dropped on the chessboard, and said, "It's clear." ”

The ghost master stared at the chessboard with both eyes, not bothering about everything that was happening around him, and said lightly: "It's early." ”

Fan Jian agreed: "If it is half a minute late, let Geng Tian let more people in, the harvest of the Eight Dragon and Snake Great Array will be even greater." ”

The ghost master said: "I killed more than 3,000 people in one go, be content." ”

Fan Jian sighed: "It's okay, killing too much is not a good thing after all. ”

The ghost master said lightly: "It's not a pity that the rebellious ministers and thieves die. ”

Xiang Yu seized the opportunity to speak, and asked excitedly, "Lord Fan, is Brother Chengche here?"

She had already heard Yu Yu talk about the battle of Guanlan Pavilion in Lingshan the night before, Ji Chengche was born out of thin air, and used a fetal Yuan Divine Sword to defeat Tang Yan and Wugong Zang, the two great sages of the world, and protect her father and queen mother.

He saved himself and his mother last time, and this time he saved his mother and father regardless of his previous suspicions, and he has repeatedly been greatly favored by the Xiang family, how can such chivalrous feelings not be sincerely admired and admired?

For no reason, Xiang Yu recalled the scene of Ji Chengche carrying his bloody assassin on his back that day, and his jade cheeks were hot and hot.

She lowered her head, and she could hear her heart beating like a fawn.

She was thinking about her thoughts in a daze, when the hall suddenly fell silent.

Xiang Yu was stunned for a moment, and found that everyone's eyes were looking at the door of the hall in great surprise.

Xiang Yu followed everyone's gaze and was surprised to see Qi Longxiang, dressed in a gray robe, standing proudly in front of the door alone.

There were guards on both sides of the hall door, but seeing that Qi Longxiang came alone, and was afraid of his tiger might, no one dared to step forward to stop him.

Qi Long ignored the guards who were staring at the enemy as if they were facing a great enemy, and slowly walked into the hall and beckoned: "Brother Ghost, Brother Fan, it turns out that both of them are here, no wonder Micang Mountain broke his head at the Suzaku Gate." ”

Yuan Shisi Niang and Wu Da Hammer saw Qi Longxiang approaching, and the nurse rushed forward to meet him.

"Brother Qi, please sit down. The ghost master said calmly: "Brother Qi is here to be a guest, you must not lose your courtesy." Besides, if Brother Qi really wants to be unfavorable to the old decay, you can't stop him with a few of you. ”

Qi Longxiang laughed and said: "Brother Ghost has won the award, if the old man had known that you and Brother Fan had already entered the palace, he would not dare to visit if he borrowed ten bear-hearted leopards." ”

Although Yu Yu and Qi Longxiang did not share the sky, he also had to admire this person's courage, and said with grief and indignation: "Prince Qi is ambitious and strong, I don't know what to do here? ”

Qi Longxiang looked around at the hostile eyes, and replied nonchalantly: "What the queen said is that even if there is Prince Fan and the ghost master here, it is natural that they can fight together." But I don't know how many times can Brother Ghost launch the 'Ten Thousand Dragons Burning the Sky and Thousand Snakes Red Land' Absolute Transformation Array like Fang Cai?"

The ghost master said coldly: "But I don't know how many people are left after Brother Qi's soldiers and horses kill His Excellency Langyu?"

Qi Longxiang said hesitantly: "Even if there is only one soldier left in the end, I will win." ”

The ghost master snorted and said: "Besieging the imperial city with twenty times the strength of the army for a day and a night, Brother Qi is really a good means." ”

Qi Longxiang said with a calm expression: "Brother Ghost, dare to make a bet with the old man? If I attack with all my might, the Imperial City will be destroyed within three hours!"

Xiang Yu said angrily: "Don't be ashamed, and I'm not afraid of the wind flashing my tongue! When my father and emperor raise troops to return to Beijing, it will be the end of your wait!"

Qi Longxiang laughed loudly and said, "Your Royal Highness, princess, do you think Your Majesty is still alive now?"

Xiang Yu said angrily: "I have to laugh now, and when you cry later!"

Wang Rou was woken up by Qi Longxiang's laughter, covering her ears and looking around blankly.

Qi Longxiang strode to the sand table, picked up a black battle flag and planted it outside the Qinglong Gate, and looked back at Fan Jian and the ghost master.

Fan Jian got up, and without saying a word, he transferred half of the soldiers and horses originally deployed in Qinglongmen and turned them to Xuanwu Gate.

Qi Longxiang smiled, picked up three black flags in one breath and inserted them outside the Xuanwu Gate, cloth them in the shape of finished characters, and then put on bed crossbows, catapults, crashes, and many siege equipment, lined up along the moat.

Fan Jian responded strongly, suddenly opened the Xuanwu Gate, led a heavy cavalry to kill, and destroyed most of the siege equipment outside the moat.

Qi Longxiang thought about it, circled around the sand table for half a circle, and added 3,000 troops in front of the White Tiger Gate.

The two of you go back and forth and use the sand table to deduce, killing the dark people and turning their backs.

It seems that Yu Yu and Xiang Yu are just watching a lively scene, but Shi Yifu and others are so interested that they forget themselves.

After a while, the ghost master also got up and joined the battle group, operating the formation to help Fan Jian fight against Qi Longxiang.

These three are the top commanders and advisers in the world, and any one of them has the strength and courage to sweep the southeast half of the wall with 100,000 male soldiers in his hands. There were endless ideas surrounding the attack and defense of the imperial city, and Shi Yifu and the others were dazzled and sweaty, and they couldn't help but be fascinated in their hearts.

Unconsciously, everyone's attention was attracted to the sand table, and even Wang Rou couldn't help but open her eyes wide and find it interesting.

Suddenly, a faint pale golden halo appeared on the ground, and it slowly spread like ripples.

Fan Jian was addicted to the sand table as if he was enchanted and didn't realize it, but the ghost master was shocked and shouted: "Qi Longxiang, you dare to make a ghost!"

"Hmm-" In the pale golden halo, the ground spread out like water waves, and dozens of black shadows shot out, and it was a powerful hermit from Meizu!

This group of hermits suddenly jumped out from all over the hall, killing Yu Yu and Xiang Yu's mother and daughter together.

"Sss

Yuan Shi Niang and Wu Da Hammer were the closest to Yu Yu's mother and daughter, but they didn't have time to show off the bamboo cane and the wild dragon wind chain.

Wu Da Hammer roared loudly in front of Yu Yu and Xiang Yu, his sleeves bulging like balls and hitting the quenching cross dart.

Yuan Shi Niang also floated and took off in mid-air, and the ten fingers of both hands burst out like knives to cover the parry.

As soon as the news was sparse, a hermit suddenly emerged from behind, holding a charm knife and slashing at Yu Yu viciously!

Yu Yu was caught off guard, and Xiang Yu rescued his mother and shouted, "Don't hurt my mother!" desperately threw her to the ground, and used his back to meet the blade.

"Princess!" Fan Jian waved his sleeves with an angry face, and an invisible sleeve wind whipped towards the hermit like a whip.

"Bang!" Qi Longxiang intercepted sideways, and slapped down with one palm to scatter the sleeve wind.

Between the lightning and the fire, seeing that the hermit's charm knife was about to slash Xiang Yu, Wang Rou, who was originally sitting on the side in a daze, suddenly shouted: "Villain, look at the fight!" reached out and grabbed the hermit's right wrist with his hand.

The hermit couldn't help but be furious, and shouted: "Girl, look for death!" Yun Gong Zhendao wanted to break free from Wang Rou's grasp, and killed Xiang Yu's mother and daughter first.

Who knew that Wang Rou saw that his expression was hideous, and he was scared in his heart, so he couldn't help but close his eyes and shook his hand vigorously, just hoping to leave this wicked man far away.

"Click!" The hermit heard his bones pop, his right wrist shattered, and a fiery force that was overwhelming rushed backwards along the meridians like magma, heading straight for his shoulder.

"Gaba!" The hermit was frightened, unable to withstand Wang Rou's tremendous force, and his body was thrown backwards like firewood, and his entire right arm sneered and smoked and burned.

Everyone was taken aback when they saw this, no matter whether they were friends or enemies, they didn't expect that this seemingly weak and charming girl was actually equipped with peerless magical skills.

Only the ghost master was calm, as if he had long expected this to be the result.

Shi Yifu was shocked into a cold sweat, if Yu Yu and Xiang Yu had a good relationship, he could only apologize with death. It can be said that Wang Rou's unintentional move this time actually saved her life.

He took out the black and white double sword, not daring to give the hermit a second chance to assassinate Yu Yu's mother and daughter, and the sword flew with all his might.

The guards in the Jade Pavilion also reacted, angrily shouting and calling for reinforcements to pounce on the attacking hermit.

Fan Jian and Qi Long exchanged blows with their palms, their bodies shook slightly, and they took two steps back to remove their remaining strength, seeing that Xiang Yu and Yu Yu were safe and sound, they couldn't help but feel relaxed, and they were not in a hurry to counterattack each other.

Qi Longxiang was shocked and angry, and he actually missed Wang Rou in a thousand calculations, but when did she become so powerful?

In this operation, he was originally in the hands of Zhizhu, but he didn't expect the ghost master to come to help, resulting in Shi Yifu, Wu Dazhu, Yuan Shisi Niang and other masters in the Jade Pavilion out of thin air. In addition, Wang Rou killed a horizontal bar halfway, could it be that God would not destroy Chu Xiang?

Rao was like this, and the hermit in the hall still had the upper hand, injuring several guards in a row.

The guards outside the hall rushed to reinforcements when they heard the news, but saw the two hermits throw out a string of projectiles and burst into a multicolored poisonous mist to seal the entrance.

Qi Longxiang sharply ordered the hermit: "Fight quickly!"

Fan Jian shook his head when he heard this, "Brother Qi, you don't have a chance." ”

Qi Longxiang said hesitantly: "It is still unknown who killed the deer!"

Fan Jian didn't respond, and only slapped his palms twice.

"Huh-" The secret doors on both sides of the main hall opened, and more than thirty old eunuchs poured out, and the first one smiled at Qi Longxiang: "Lord Qi, I haven't seen our family for a long time!"

Unexpectedly, it was Zhao An, the eunuch leader of Zhangwu Palace!
