Chapter 3: Attacking Fox Mountain
The guys watching the field looked at Cheng Tianyun, and they expected that he was here to smash the field, and immediately you threatened me with a word, and some of them were covered with a layer of qi. Just as he was about to do it, the middle-aged man suddenly said, "Stop it for me-"
The guys turned their heads, a little unclear, but they saw that the boss who usually pretended to be unsmiling smiled at the moment as if he was the second shopkeeper, and greeted him respectfully: "Oh, Chengye! It's been a year since the days are counted! Sure enough, I'm back! I miss my little brother." ”
The guys couldn't react for a while, but they saw Cheng Tianyun retract his eyes, glanced at him and said, "Oh, Li Laosan! I haven't seen you for a year, and I've made a lot of money!"
Li San showed a flattering smile to the extreme, and bowed his head: "Isn't this all up to your old man, your hands must be itchy again when you come here today, right? Come on, please inside!"
Li San smiled and led Chengtianyun into the door, and at the same time pointed to the unconscious guy lying on the ground, and said, "Why don't you drag this thing down quickly! You also want to do it with Chengye! Think you live too long?"
Because of Li San's greetings, many gamblers were attracted to the eye, and couldn't help but stretch their necks to watch the show, most of them had never seen Li San so low-voiced, and today can be regarded as an eye-opener.
Cheng Tianyun nodded, "Next time I educate my subordinates, I thought I would forget about me after not seeing you for a year." ”
"Ride you, my little brother has always remembered it! No, in the year you were away, Sakura Niang, I was waiting for a good life. I also invited a famous guzheng musician from Tianteng, her guzheng and Sakura Niang's pipa together is really Xianle, Xianle! You must appreciate your face. ”
As he spoke, Li San's already extremely curved back bent down a little.
After showing himself to the Heavenly Fortune, he glared at a guy again and motioned him to hurry up and prepare. After receiving the master's eyes, the man quickly rushed into the back hall, and after a while, he led the two women out.
Looking at the two women's dress, although they were dressed in the dust, they were very decent, and they walked up to the two women by heavenly luck, smiled with satisfaction, and said to the older women: "Hehe, Sakura Niang, I haven't seen you for a long time, but it's still so beautiful." ”
Sakura Niang smiled and put a hand on his arm familiarly, "I haven't seen you for a long time, Cheng Gongzi must be a confidant all over the world, where is my turn." ”
Cheng Tianyun took out a box of rouge and handed it to her, patted it on the back of her hand, and quietly pulled it away, "No matter how many confidants you have, you still have to listen to the sound of the piano." Has there been any regression in the past year?"
Sakura took the rouge box, and looked at the brocade box satin, and knew that it was very precious. Knowing that Chengtianyun has always been generous to women, he just smiled and thanked him: "Chenggongzi remembers me every time, and what I can repay is the sound of the piano, and the music for a while will be dedicated to you." ”
Fortune smiled at the younger girl again. He first smiled politely, then frowned, and raised his head to look at Li San.
Li San bowed down and said, "Back to the master, this girl's name is Ziyan." ”
Cheng Tianyun took out another bracelet from his bosom and put it on for her personally, "How is the skill of the purple smoke girl?"
Ziyan was a little younger, looked at his wrist a little shyly, and said, "Although there is still room for improvement, I don't hesitate to be ugly tonight, but I also want to please my son." ”
Cheng Tianyun waved his hand and said: "Wonderful, play the music and gamble!"
The piano sounded, and he sat down at a table that shook the dice.
After a while, several women were holding the wine and food, and he didn't have to do it himself at all, and all the food and drink were taken care of by Tianyun. During the gambling period, there are also beauties pinching their shoulders and beating their backs, so uncomfortable.
Wherever they are waiting for them to gamble on their luck, although the gamblers are envious, they also know that the people who can make Li San look like this are far above Li San, and many people deliberately gathered around the gambling table where he was to find out. Riding the fortune of heaven while listening to the song and humming while betting on the big bet, as soon as he made a move, many opponents were red-eyed.
Just as Chengtian Fortune waved his hand and shouted "Kill!" the sound of the piano also stopped. He confiscated all the money and clapped his hands: "Okay!"
A group of gamblers, whether they understood it or not, also clapped their hands together. ushered in the applause of the whole house, and the two girls also smiled proudly.
Sakura Niang came forward and asked if she was dissatisfied, and she was just about to speak, but she was squeezed by the gamblers who wanted to see Sakura Niang up close, and inadvertently touched two dice.
Li San hurriedly lowered his head and was about to pick it up, but suddenly stopped his hand, pointed to the sieve and said, "Leopard!
When I looked at the two sixes on the ground, I knew that this luck was really rare. But he frowned.
Gamblers know that if the gambling table is too comfortable, they are afraid that they will touch some mold elsewhere. He learned the Hushan Qimen Dunjia by heavenly luck, and he has achieved great success, and he is even more transparent about this kind of thing.
Li San frowned and was silent when he saw Tianyun, and for a moment he realized that he was speechless, and wanted to speak, so he threw a look of help at Ying Niang.
Sakura Niang walked over and poured wine for Tianyun, and her every move was sultry, "Is Childe troubled?"
Chengtianyun came back to his senses, raised his eyebrows and smiled, and comforted her: "How could it be? I can still think of the things next to you when I hear this song of yours? Now this song seems to be Mr. Hengyi's "Three Alleys of Plum Blossoms", and there is an extra meaning of Jin Ge inexplicably, what is the reason?"
Li San breathed a sigh of relief, this matter is in the past.
Sakura Niang smiled and approached, half-bowed her head and listened carefully: "The musician changed it a few months ago, and I have been practicing with Sister Ziyan for a long time. However, Gongzi has never come, and Qu Hao doesn't know how to listen to it, and it's also boring. ”
Cheng Tianyun stroked her chin, and praised with a smile: "Yo, you have something to say, blame me for snubbing you." Come on, come on, please play a few more songs with the Purple Smoke Girl, this style of music is suitable for a gambling game. ”
After that, Li San shouted for him: "Come again!"
On the other side, the palace of the moon and half of the city is also brightly lit, and there is a way to dance and sing and drink endlessly, and it is difficult to sleep all night long.
Just as the fortune of heaven raised his hands to "kill the Quartet", the dinner party had just ended. The Zheng brothers and the main officials of the counties and counties in Haizhou left one after another.
The mansion of the Zheng brothers is not far from the palace. Taking advantage of the wine, simply stepped on a piece of moonlight and walked together.
Zheng Xian was still drunk, and he spoke a little louder than usual: "Today is finally over." ”
Zheng Guang's movements also increased, and he waved his hand: "Yes, you see that Jiuzhao is laughing and laughing on the table." That must be very satisfying. ”
Zheng Xian smiled and said: "After Jiu Zhao leaves, I will hand the fold to Chaozhong, what do you think about the Shenjian Capital Protectorate?"
Zheng Guang pretended to be suddenly enlightened, "My brother is so prepared for today"
Zheng Xian's eyes were slightly suspicious, and he followed Zheng Guang's words and said, "Yes, she can have her current status but she has the full support of various sects, including my Zheng family. Jiu Zhao has already rejected the matter of building a capital and protecting the mansion several times, and he can't find a reason this time, right?"
"It's the right time, it's so good, the eldest brother is the head of my family. If approved, our people will surely reach new heights. Zheng Guang took advantage of the night and had a sneer on his lips.
The best way to apply for the construction of the capital is to protect the country, which is more difficult for the Zheng family. In addition, the Zheng family seems to be united on the surface, advancing and retreating together, but behind the scenes, there is actually an undercurrent surging, so it is difficult to add.
The two brothers of the Zheng family said a word, and soon passed by the two mansions facing each other. The two brothers parted ways, turned around and entered their own gates, each pregnant with a ghost.
The palace in the middle of the moon is not calm, singing and dancing, and after the fragrance of wine dissipates, it is still like day.
The Xuantie Army on the periphery of the palace is patrolling.
The atmosphere outside the gate of the main palace was solemn, and hundreds of cultivators with cold expressions exuded a heavy aura and coercion, standing in several lines.
Jiu Zhao in the palace was high in the dragon chair, and his face was set off by candles, which added a bit of coldness at this time.
Xiang Min looked at this face stupidly. Jiu Zhao knew Xiang Min's intentions very well, although the master and servant had a part, he had long been used to it, and ignored Xiang Min's admiring eyes without any indifference.
Jiu Zhao sighed: "The purpose of this trip should be well disguised!"
Hearing this, Xiang Min showed a hint of sneer: "Yes, Zheng Guang thought that His Majesty was a great grace and a charity to him, so he didn't even return to Muyang City, and stayed in Yuebancheng." ”
There was a sneer between Jiu Zhao's lips and teeth: "With the tour of the world as bait, we are very prepared." After waiting so long, it's finally time to do it. ”
"It's okay if I surrender my name and obediently hand over the "Recipe for Death", if I don't hand it over, I will risk my life and not let it hurt Your Majesty in the slightest!"
In the eyes of any cultivator, raising troops to attack the Firmament Palace, which has a retired name, is a fool's dream and a suicide attempt, but Jiu Zhao is full of confidence and pride: "When will Dongfang Ji come back?"
"The math should be soon. Xiang Min replied.
As soon as the words fell, a figure floated into the hall, the doors and windows were closed, impermeable, and there was no trace of opening. Under the lamp, a thin and fair face appeared, and the pupils of his eyes were extremely light, and he slowly walked in front of Jiu Zhao and did not kneel, but opened his arms to show dry hands, and his face was full of sincerity: "Dongfang Ji has seen my great Empress Majesty." ”
As soon as Xiang Min saw Dongfang Qi, his face showed displeasure, and his eyes fluttered and did not fall on Dongfang Qi.
Jiu Zhao's face was expressionless, and Huang Wei was still: "Can you investigate?"
Dongfang Yan looked cold again: "I, this old bone, went to investigate the geographical location of Fox Mountain, and Her Majesty the Empress, who is famous for thousands of miles, didn't even ask me if I was affected, but I was very sad in my heart." ”
Jiu Zhao sighed and narrowed his phoenix eyes to stare at Dongfang Ji.
"Don't worry, the direction of Fox Mountain is traceable, and it changes back and forth from top to bottom according to fifty nautical miles. I can deduce the specific location by looking at the concentration of immortal barriers next to the moon and half of the city. Dongfang Yan restrained his smile.
"It is rare for me to hear such valuable words from your mouth. Jiuzhao's tone was cold, and the air around him seemed to condense.
"Where, where is it, the grass people's slight merit is naturally not as good as His Majesty's wisdom and martial arts. "Dongfang Ji first pretended to be serious, and then modestly pushed. One sentence changed several expressions.
Jiu Zhao suddenly sneered: "I can have today, you have spent a lot of effort. ”
"What the minister has done is for the sake of my Empress Jiuzhao, those meager things are really a drop in the bucket compared to what my Empress Jiuzhao has done. Dongfang took a bite of the Empress Jiuzhao, full of mockery.
"Dongfang Beard!" Xiang Min really couldn't listen to it, and raised his eyebrows angrily, and at the same time, the wave black electric halberd in his hand tore through the air.
Dongfang Yan made an innocent attitude again: "What the grass people said is from the heart, I don't know why His Excellency the Marshal is angry?"
Xiang Min pointed at Dongfang and said, "Do you have half a sincerity on your face?"
"What can be expressed in words should be embellished with expressions. "Dongfang said righteous words.
"Enough!"
Jiu Zhao spoke to stop it, but Xiang Min had no choice but to give up and take back the halberd.
"I'm just concerned, Mr. Dongfang betrayed his master first, and then betrayed his master's secrets, is it inappropriate to attack the mountain together now?"
Dongfang Yan's voice was faint: "Your Majesty's words are not true, although I am a teacher from Fox Mountain, but since I left Fox Mountain, I am no longer a person from Fox Mountain, how can I come to the teacher." ”
Seeing that Dongfang Yan's words no longer meant sarcasm, Jiu Zhao asked sharply: "Xiu is your senior brother, how do you compare with him?"
Dongfang Yan's eyes rolled, and his expression seemed to be saying something very proud: "It depends on how you fight, if you reach the point, he will win." If life and death are fighting, I can still die together. ”
Dongfang Jiu knew the strength of Dongfang Ji for a long time, got up and paced back and forth slowly, thinking for a while, and then turned to Dongfang Ji and said: "In that case, then why don't you salute first and then soldier? I am still merciful and willing to avoid this fight." ”
Although Jiu Zhao said this, there was no retreat in her expression.
Seeing the situation, Dongfang shook his head and smiled evilly: "Hehe, then I'll tell you, not only will I give you a resignation." There will be some preparations, and then the 'first salute' will become a scare for the snake. Once Hushan is prepared, it will be useless to have any rear soldiers, and at that time, five times as many troops will be hanging. ”
Jiu Zhao was rarely refuted, and although he was unhappy in his heart, he had to change his agreement with Dongfang Yan's reasonableness, and immediately abandoned the idea of avoiding war. Thinking that she was about to face the legendary strongest cultivator in the world, she felt a sense of pressure in her heart and at the same time a fighting spirit rose, and the pressure in her eyes was a look that Dongfang Ji had not seen for a long time, and he remembered that when she took Tianteng that day, she was also like this.
"Okay, this so-called No. 1 in the world, this so-called strongest master. As the Son of Heaven, I want to see if the resignation has the ability to go against the sky. ”
Jiuzhao pushed open the closed palace door. Immediately, Dongfang Ji and Xiang Min followed closely.
Outside the door, a group of cultivators saw Jiu Zhao come out, and they lifted their spirits one by one.
Glancing around, Jiu Zhao raised his arms and shouted: "Ladies and gentlemen, you are now my warriors. Do you know where we are going to fight? Listen! You are going with me to tear apart the false name that Fox Mountain has always been inconsistent with its strength!"
The crowd was silent, and they couldn't believe it for a while.
Jiu Zhao showed a smile, and it has always been Jiu Zhao's forte to provoke others to work for him with words: "My lord of Tianteng, the Holy Empress Jiu Zhao Tianhou promised you that those who return together, I will give the title of 'Tianteng Wukui', so that his name will spread all over Tianteng and leave his name in history." If there is any unfortunate victim, I will set up the 'Wukui Fengyun Monument' in the Fengwu Imperial City so that it will be worshiped by thousands of people for thousands of years!
The expressions of the people changed from hesitation to excitement, and most of the cultivators knew that if it were not for the adventures, how many people would be able to go down in history in this life, and even be comparable to the resignation? Not to mention that they were outnumbered, if they really captured the sky, then the small favors of Jiu Zhao would be completely negligible, and what would await them would be the glory of thousands of years.
Many monks could no longer hold back, and their cries resounded through the sky. "Kill, kill, kill, sacrifice for Your Majesty!"
"Okay, let's go now!"
It was night, and hundreds of shadows galloped across the night sky of the moonlit city, falling on the tiles without making a sound. The three-legged cat kung fu of the city guards naturally couldn't be found.
Everyone landed on the ships docked on the dock, dozens of small boats disappeared into the confusion with the waves in the moonlight, and a battle at the pinnacle of the world, which symbolized the territory of the Tianteng Dynasty, also kicked off because of Jiu Zhao's words.
"Dongfang Ji, you have memorized it for me. Jiu Zhao was under the moonlight, his eyes were shining, "Those who go against me for a long time will die!"
