Chapter Seventy-Eight: Picking People Home
Chen Wanjuan was waiting for an opportunity.
For a while, there was a mixture of thoughts in my mind.
With an indifferent expression, he thought back to what the city lord had said to him.
"This ability can only be used at the moment of surprise. β
"You only get one chance. β
There is only one chance, so there can be no mistakes.
Chen Wanjuan took a deep breath, his body slowly sank, and gradually approached the unconscious two people below.
The sleeves of his coat were blown by the strong wind, and countless clouds passed through his body.
Zhu Lianxiang's divine sense swept countless times.
But they couldn't find him.
It's like air.
Or nothingness.
Chen Wanjuan closed his eyes, thinking back to the means he had prepared for today.
These methods may not be able to kill Yi Xiao.
But his goal, from beginning to end, has always been the ...... who is now so badly injured that he can't walk freely
His Royal Highness Qi Liang, Xiao Buyi.
......
......
The Qijiang turmoil is extremely noisy.
Where Xiguan is close to the river, the sky is cloudy and turbid, and the huge waves crash on the shore.
The port wharf, due to the instructions of a certain big man in Xiguan, is densely packed with many figures that should not appear here.
The white robe was a little upturned and stained in the heavy rain, but such a dress was a costume that Xiguan was worthy of wearing only when it was included in the real core figures.
Salute to that prince.
More than a dozen white-robed figures stood by the river.
Led by Xiguan Shadow Huan Tu is poor.
Dense black armor behind him.
There are more than 1,000 of them.
This is the sixteen-figure battalion that was temporarily transferred, and all of them are in front at the moment.
Qijiang heavy rain, big waves, the river fog is gloomy, even if the eyesight is very good, Huan Tu is poor, can not see what kind of scene is on the side of the river fog.
Huan Tu did not move.
Therefore, the white-robed officials in Xiguan behind him let the storm blow and the Qijiang River splashed, and their posture was as tall as a gun.
The black armor behind him was murderous.
Huan Tuqian said softly: "Have you ever thought that this day will come so quickly?"
Several Xiguan officials behind him squinted their eyes, not daring to respond casually.
"Lord Yuan Zhongzhong said to me...... There will be guests from Qijiang to Xiguan today. β
Xiguan's shadow voice was not loud, but it was clear for everyone to hear.
"As I believe everyone knows, the Qijiang agreement was destroyed a year ago. β
One of the nominal leaders of Xiguan still has a gentle voice at the moment.
He said with a smile: "I have thought countless times about what the scene of Qi Liang crossing the Qijiang River to Xiguan was like. β
The sound that followed gradually became colder.
The murderous aura gradually rose.
"In what capacity they will cross the Qi River, whether they are guests or enemies, I don't know, and no one will know. β
"When the prince built the Xiguan barrier, he said that he hoped that Xiguan would be peaceful for a hundred years. β
"I also hope for a hundred years of peace and eternal peace. β
"But when the war will break out and in what form it will break out, these are always unknown!"
"In my heart before, no matter how powerful the enemy is, as long as there is a prince in charge, Xiguan will not take a step back-"
"But now, I realize I was wrong. β
"All of us, all of us have spears in their hands, long swords at their waists, Qi Jiang who raised them in front of us, and relatives and children behind us, this is our home country!"
"So...... Whether the prince is here or not, we can't retreat!"
Sudden stagnation.
There was the sound of a huge wave breaking through the air at the other end of the Qi River!
Huan Tuqiao shouted: "Listen to my orders-"
Xiguan's shadow was bruised, his pupils contracted, and he raised a hand high at this moment.
"Draw your sword!"
Countless silver lights behind him!
Cut the rain curtain in an instant!
The sound of drawing swords in unison is chilling!
The tip of the sword pointed at forty-five degrees to the sky, and the killing intent boiled straight into the sky!
The river mist at that end was broken by the huge giant beast body-
It was a giant monster that was so big that it couldn't be seen at a glance.
A bolt of lightning fell from the sky, flashing across the horizon, illuminating the true face of the monster in a pale light.
It was a huge ship.
The bow of the ship is carved with a dragon with its front paws, and the details of this huge monster are so delicate that the heart trembles at the first glance.
The waves under the seat of the giant ship were terrifying, and the roaring sound shook the surface of the river.
Countless guns poked out from the underbelly of the ship and struck the surface of the river.
In the heavy rain, all the river fog was swept away!
That huge ship was like breaking through the sky, and the hull of the ship rose and crossed the Qi River!
What a majestic shock -
Dragon's head and a hundred lances!
On the bow of the ship stood a handsome burly man in a red robe.
The color under the Qiliang Hall was gloomy, the halberd in his hand stood on the iron armor at the bow of the ship, the red robe cloak danced wildly in the wind, and the thunder flashed, reflecting the strange and mighty of His Highness at this moment.
Inhale slightly, then speakβ
The sound is like a bell.
Deafening.
"I am the Marquis of Qi Liang Beigu Su Dao Fengsui!"
Halberd.
A bolt of lightning fell not far from the Great Highness.
Even people with halberds shine like gods descending to earth.
His Royal Highness was condescending, looking at the more than 1,000 black armor drawn on the shore of Xiguan.
There is also the shadow of Xiguan who stood at the forefront.
There was silence between heaven and earth.
Everyone looked at the heroic man above the dragon's head and a hundred lances.
At that time, the only one who was enshrined as the Marquis of Beigu Sudao Fengsui was His Royal Highness Qi Liang.
The man with the halberd said indifferently: "I didn't want to provoke a war, so I will give you ten breaths to collect your sword." β
......
......
Huan Tuqian stared at the figure at the front of the dragon boat.
Didn't want to start a war?
This is...... What do you mean?
This man came with a halberd, and under him was a dragon boat and a hundred lance boats cast by countless craftsmen in Qi Liang, and the momentum was incomparable, and such a momentum alone was enough to overwhelm the heroes of the world.
This can already be considered a provocation.
Xiguan Shadow suddenly noticed that there was a second person beside His Royal Highness Qi Liang.
It was a woman.
The woman stood in the wind, but there was no one to hold an umbrella for her.
The red lips were stained with rain, and her face was even paler, but the corners of her lips couldn't stop smiling.
If you look closely, it's actually a bitter smile.
Tang Xiaoman kept rubbing his face frozen by the rain, looked into the distance, squeezed out one smile after another, and tried to make himself look better.
Because he said that he would look better when he smiled.
The eldest lady of the Tang family propped her hands on the railing of the bow of the boat, standing on tiptoe, but she couldn't see how far away the man was from her beyond the majestic world of heavy rain.
The Bodhisattva of the Great Banyan Temple was no longer willing to reveal the secret of heaven, and finally made a little vague mention of it.
The bodhisattva said that as long as he arrived at the Qijiang River, Xiao Buyi would come soon.
Now it's my own.
But the Bodhisattva spoke quickly..... And how fast?
It wasn't dawn yet.
Tang Xiaoman only hoped to wait until dawn to be able to wait for Buyi to come back.
......
......
His Royal Highness pursed his lips slightly and glanced at the woman beside him.
Fengguan Dai Xia, red makeup and red lips, heavy rain fell, this red wedding dress was drenched, Tang Xiaoman's eyebrows and eyes were still smiling, but his eyebrows couldn't be shaken, and there was a touch of bitterness after all.
I don't know it, but outsiders can see it at a glance.
Worried, anxious, waiting, anxious.
This is something that can't be hidden by laughter.
This is the pain of love words.
Teach people to cut off their liver and intestines.
How infatuated should it be that he will wear a red wedding dress and come to Xiguan thousands of miles away, just to wait for one person to return.
This wedding dress, this life wedding dress.
His Highness suddenly took a deep breath.
He took a step forward and shouted at the shadow of Xiguan: "Behind me, there are a hundred dragon ships of Qi Liang, if the tide comes today and wants to provoke a war, don't say that the battle line gathers in Xiguan, even if it extends to the entire Northern Wei Dynasty, you can only retreat a hundred miles and retreat to the royal city!"
The hand in which he raised the halberd was remarkably steady.
The muscles bulged and the blood vessels were exposed.
His Royal Highness stared at Huan Tu Poor under the dragon boat.
"If you don't put away your sword, I will tell you to wear white for thousands of miles. β
"Crying for the dead and running for the bereaved white. β
Xiguan Shadow's face was quite ugly.
He knew that this sentence was extremely arrogant and arrogant.
But he knew that what the man said was not bad at all.
Qi Liang's march north was a disaster for the Northern Wei Dynasty.
What's more than retreating?
Half of the Northern Wei Dynasty had to be handed over.
It's just that Huan Tuqiao has a lot of pictures flashing in his mind at this moment.
He didn't have any reason to think that for more than a year, he had been constantly transferred by Yuan Zhongzhong to carry out tasks, and after returning to the ethereal slope, unfamiliar faces kept appearing in the military tent...... Bizarrely, these unfamiliar faces have been trusted by Yuan Zhongzhong.
When the prince was alive, he gave a considerable part of the decision to Yuan Zhongzhong, and Huan Tu asked himself that he did not have this talent, so he never interfered in internal affairs.
It's just that at this moment, some thoughts that shouldn't have floated in my heart have all sprouted like sprouts after the spring rain.
The entire Central Plains said that Qiliang and Northern Wei eventually had a war.
But Huan Tuqian never wanted this battle to break out at this moment, in such an absurd form, in such an absurd form.
He never thought that the war between Qi and Liang and Northern Wei should start today.
In other words, the fuse of war should never be lit by itself in such an inexplicable way.
His face was cloudy, and he was still thinking about whether to put away his sword.
In the distance, the sound of horses' hooves galloping, trampled on the mud, came from the east.
A lone horse.
The man in the sky-blue robe on horseback bowed his body with a gloomy face, and he was the only surviving Sky Wolf King among the four kings of the Northern Wei Dynasty after the turmoil in Fengting City.
Ning Fengsleeve slapped the horse suddenly, and the horse under him let out a long roar, and the handsome face of the prince of Nanguan flew up, Yuan Li broke through the air, and the whole person came to Huan Tuqi's side in an instant.
His Royal Highness Qi Liang, who was standing at the bow of the ship, squinted his eyes, looked at this great feudal king who was second to none in Nanguan, and whispered a few words to Huan Tuqiang.
After that, Huan Tuqiao was silent for a long time.
He slowly spread out the fist he raised and clenched, then pressed his palm, and said calmly: "Xiguan man...... Collect the sword. β
But the sound of the sheath was very neat.
This is actually a very demoralizing thing.
However, no one in the Sixteen Battalion hesitated.
No one questioned Huan Tu's poverty.
Huan Tuqiao raised his head and looked at the man at the bow of the boat who had put away his halberd at the same time.
He asked flatly, "How many people did you bring with you on board?" β
The lower hall said calmly: "Except for the shipwrights, I have not brought a single soldier or armor." β
Xiguan Shadow's voice was emotionless: "Xiguan does not welcome guests like you. β
His Highness smiled.
He sat cross-legged on the bow of the dragon boat, with a big red drum behind him, and a halberd standing beside him.
"I know I'm not welcome in Xiguan. β
"So what?"
His Highness slowly held the halberd in front of his knees.
"You can try to draw your sword. β
One of the hands of the Heavenly Wolf King Ning Fengsleeve slowly pressed on Huan Tuqiao's shoulder.
Xiguan Shadow was silent.
His Highness let out a soft breath.
"But you can rest assured. β
"I'm just here to pick people up. β
Flash of thunder β
He was condescending, looking at Huan Tu Poor with an expressionless face.
"I'll take my brother homeβ"
"What's your opinion?"
