Chapter 7 Mouse Thrower (I) One Update
Ling Junlai and his party set off overnight, and the heroes said goodbye in front of the south gate, so that Xue'er was even more reluctant to let her father leave, and was reluctant to give up in her arms, so Ling Junlai comforted her with kind words, and got on the horse and went out of the south gate.
The four of them traveled for two days and two nights, and came to a small town fifty miles away from Zulong Mountain to stay at the tip. Leaving the town early the next morning, he no longer hurried his horse, but rode his horse slowly, in order to adjust his mood before the battle. At noon, we came to the woods at the foot of Zulong Mountain. Usually there are many sentry posts here, but now there is no one. They rolled over and dismounted, tied their horses to trees and hiked up the mountain. After a while, I came to the Yellow River Village, and I could hear the noise in the village from a distance before, but now there is no other sound except the roar of the waterfall, and there is no one in sight. The lock demon village, Gu King Village, Immortal Village, Demon King Village, and Divine General Village are also empty.
There are four mountain paths leading to Tuotian Ridge, there is a stone city on the road, each with a hall master to guard, generally everyone will take the Black Rain Hall, where it is in a straight line with the peak, the distance is the shortest, and the slope is gentle, but Ling Junlai decided to climb from Stormwind City to the top. Because he knew that the other three cities must also be empty cities, he simply went directly to Tie Han's territory to see how they reacted.
When they arrived at the foot of Stormwind City, they saw that the drawbridge was hanging high, the city gate was closed, and the stone wall was full of soldiers. Ling Junlai said aloud in front of the moat: "What about Tie Han? Not long after, a burly man appeared on the city wall, but it was Yang Tan, the owner of the Yellow River Village, who saw Ling Jun and hurriedly saluted: "It turned out that the fort drove back to the mountain, why was it stunned, and the door was not opened." The soldiers said yes, and "Boom" lowered the drawbridge and opened the city gates. Ling Junlai sneered and walked in. When I entered the city, I found that there were as many as 8,000 soldiers inside, many of whom were from other halls, and all of them had wounds on their faces, presumably forced to come.
There was no loud noise in the city, and the soldiers lined up on both sides to make way for the road. The four of them saw the corpses of several soldiers tied to the big tree in the distance, all of them were beaten with skin and flesh, and they died for a long time, presumably Tie Han beat those who swore to death to death in public, and tied them here to set an example. Ling Junlai's heart was furious, but his face was silent. Yang Tan saluted Ling Jun from afar and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, everything is okay with the castle master?" Ling Jun didn't look at him when he came to see it, and he didn't answer him. Yang Tan said again: "The four princes and the Iron Hall Master are all waiting for the Lord in the Blood Sword Palace, please move the castle master to meet each other." "Ling Jun came and left. Yang Tan secretly made a color to Tie Ying, and said: "The virtuous nephew has worked hard all the way, Uncle Yang has something to say to you, you should come over first." Tie Ying snorted coldly, walked up to him, and spat at the mouth. Yang Tan was caught off guard and was being spit on his face, he wiped his face and said angrily: "I don't know what to do, I ...... it."
Suddenly, the knife flashed, and in just a flash, Yang Tan's head fell to the ground, and his headless corpse took a few steps backwards before falling to the ground with a "poof", and a pool of blood flowed out of the broken neck. Looking at Ling Junlai, he had already drifted outside the city. Lu Yi, Zhu Yushi, Tie Ying hurriedly caught up. Yang Tan was in a different place, but no one was pitied, and no one shed tears, even the soldiers of the "Yellow River Village" headquarters did not come forward to pick up the corpse, so they were left to fall there.
When passing by Qingfeng Cliff, I saw that there were two graves, one new and one old, the old one was Zhong Yuanpeng's, and the new tomb had not yet been erected. Gu Yao said: "Tie Han finally has no conscience, and Brother Jiang is finally in peace." Lu Yi said: "Dead people are no threat to him, Master Jiang is very popular in the castle, and he is doing this to win people's hearts." The four of them bowed respectfully in front of the two graves and continued to ascend the mountain.
Tuotianling was originally the cleanest place in the Blood Knife Castle, but at this time, the road was full of soldiers, leading directly to the gate of the Blood Sword Palace. And the door of the temple was opened, and the four of them came to the door, and saw that it was full of people. Wanyan Wushu smiled and leaned on the black dragon chair that belonged to Ling Junlai, stepping on the stone lion next to him, with a leisurely expression. Tie Han sat on the mahogany high chair of the former Gongsun Mingyue, his eyes were hollow, although he knew that he was blind, he still had a feeling of being stared at by him. On the other seats, Wan Yan Li, Wan Yan Lou Room, Ni Hongyan, Chu Laike, Lin Lingsu, Li Xiuzhi, Li Qingwan, and Ji Wa. Wanyan Wushu pointed to the last seat with his hand and said to Ling Jun: "Please sit down." ”
Ling Junlai was still standing, and said lightly to Tie Han: "Tie Hall Master, what's going on?" Tie Han said calmly: "The castle lord is extremely smart, what happened here, there is no need for the old man to say more." Ling Jun said: "Why do you do this?" Tie Han said: "The position of the castle lord is the old man's, your father and son have lived in steal for thirty years, and the old man himself has taken it back, why not?" Ling Jun came and said: "The position of the castle lord is passed from father to son, and there is a saying of stealing residence, but I admit that I did underestimate you and misbelieve you." Tie Han said: "You didn't underestimate me, I deliberately made you underestimate." Ling Junlai said "oh?", and said, "How do you say this?" Tie Han smiled bitterly: "Anyone who is old and blind will be less wary, isn't it?" Ling Junlai was slightly stunned, frowned, and said: "I have always wondered how you can blind your eyes with the martial arts of the "Three Heroes of the Hetao", it turns out that you are blind on purpose, and your bitter tricks are really hard enough. Tie Han said: "Your eyes can see through other people's minds, and no conspiracy can hide from you, only the blind can't see it." The old man's sacrifice was worth it, and now I have taken back what belongs to me. Ling Junlai said: "Even if you become the castle master, apart from Gao Xuan, and Yang Tan, who was just killed by me, who else is willing to follow you?" Tie Han was silent for a while, and said: "The old man doesn't care so much, as long as he becomes the castle master, the old man has the confidence to regroup and gather the heroes of the world, no worse than you and Gongsun Mingyue." Ling Junlai smiled and said: "Just because you also want to gather the heroes of the world, your own sons may not listen to you." Tie Han said angrily: "Fart! Eagle, come here!"
Tie Ying had already determined that his father had taken refuge in Jin Guo, and his whole body trembled with anger, and the word "no!" burst out from between his teeth. Tie Han said in a deep voice: "Ling Jun is so shameless to come here, you actually hold a descendant hostage. Ling Junlai said lightly: "I will never stop Xiaoying from going to your side, but he himself does not want to go." Iron Eagle said fiercely: "The lord of Lingbao has never held me hostage. Tie Han frowned and said, "Then why didn't you come? Didn't your Uncle Yang go to you just now?" Tie Ying cried: "Father, your old man has always taught me to value love and righteousness, isn't what you are doing now the most despised treachery you have?" Yang Tan came to me, I ignored him, and I was killed by the castle master. Tie Han said angrily: "Rebel, Ling Junlai is no longer the castle master, your father is." Tie Ying said: "The lord of the castle has indeed given way to the third lord of the castle, Luo Tianchu, but it is not you. Tie Han sneered and said: "The old man thought it was Lu Fei, but he didn't expect it to be Luo Tianchu's milky doll." Eagle, you come over first, my father will pass on the position of the castle lord to you in the future, what is Luo Tianchu, how can he compare with you. ”
Tie Ying said: "Dad, you are wrong, Brother Luo's intelligence and martial arts are ten times better than the child, he defeated the Jin soldiers in the monk Yuan, and the child really admires it." Tie Han said in a deep voice: "Everything Dad does is for your good, do you want to be against Daddy?" Tie Ying said: "The child just asks Dad not to make more mistakes, let's drive the Jin people away together, so that the castle lord has promised the child, and he will never embarrass his father." Tie Han sighed and said earnestly: "Ying'er, Dad has broken the kettle, it is impossible to turn back, as long as you are willing to come over, Dad will promise you everything, haven't you had a crush on Miss Ling for many years, but what? People like Luo Tianchu." Don't you hate? You have known Ling Xue'er since you were a child, childhood sweethearts, you were a natural pair, if you can really get married, for the sake of Ling Junlai is your father-in-law, your father will not oppose him, but the little white face surnamed Luo has only been on the mountain for a few years to win her heart, and Xue'er has never played with you again. You are stoic by nature and don't show it at all, but Dad knows that you are uncomfortable. The hateful thing is that Ling Jun came to know everything, but he didn't say anything, so how could his father not be angry. Na Luo Tianchu used treacherous tricks to seize the position of the lord of the demon king village, his reputation in the castle has been much higher than you, if he is allowed to develop, he will always crush you, and you will never have a head in the castle. Dad is old, this is all for your sake, I hope you can get ahead, command the heroes, don't you understand Dad's hard work?" (To be continued.) )
