374 Rumor-mongering

Three yellow lightsabers burst through the air as if they were substance.

Seeing the ferocity, Su Mu immediately held his sword to his chest and shouted: "Gather in the sky for hundreds of millions of Lei Yin...... Grid!"

When the green qi sword in his hand was pronounced out of the spell, the light was great, and a huge green light curtain was instantly condensed to block the three yellow light swords.

Su Mu took the opportunity to turn around and say to the three fire-type warriors behind him: "You three defend, sweat Mo evil, and the seven of us will attack." ”

"Yes, Commander. ”

The four of them stood in a row, sword in their chests, and summoned the incantation in unison: "The spirits that dance in the flames turn anger into walls of fire...... Guardian Fire Shield!"

The flaming wall of fire surrounded the furball mercenary group, and the remaining thunder warriors were unambiguous, and they summoned a spell one after another: "Obey the ancient contract of electricity and fire...... Thunder and lightning strike!"

Su Mu used mid-level wind magic: "In the name of the contract, summon the spirit of the wind...... Whirlwind!"

With such an adjustment, the Cupid mercenary group was beaten up in a hurry, their strength was not as good as the hairball mercenary group, and a teammate was knocked to the ground by Su Mu before, and now it hasn't gotten up, and if there is one less person, it will inevitably affect the overall collaboration of the team, and the chance of winning is even smaller.

I heard another scream, one of the Cupid mercenary group was struck by lightning, and the other teammates were also exhausted, bending over and wearing rough clothes.

Due to a moment of negligence, Khan Moxie was hit in his right foot by a lightning bolt, and his injuries were not serious, but he sat on the ground for a while and couldn't stand up.

Su Mu was approaching the Cupid mercenary group step by step, and it could be seen from his cold and ruthless eyes that he would not have any softness.

A man from the Cupid Mercenary Regiment who looked like a regimental leader stepped forward. Wheezing violently. "We threw in the towel. ”

The audience erupted in enthusiastic cheers. The people of the Xisi Kingdom who had come all the way to support the Maoqiuer mercenary group waved their fists and opened their mouths hoarsely, as if they had won the championship.

As the Cupid mercenary group admitted defeat and left, only the hairball mercenary group and the deafening cheers were left in the holy arena, and Su Mu pulled up the sweat Mo evil: "I made you suffer." ”

With pain and satisfaction on his face, he barely straightened his body, put one hand on his chest and said, "It is an honor for Han Moye to be able to fight side by side with the Seventh Prince. ”

The rest of the team also gathered. The group surrounded him, and put his hands on his chest in unison: "The last general swears to follow the Seventh Prince to the death." ”

Su Mu also returned the salute seriously.

At this time, the referee Qu Mei said: "Congratulations to the Maoqiuer mercenary group for winning the ......" The latter sentence has strong personal feelings: "Congratulations to the seventh prince of the Xisi Kingdom for recovering his spiritual power and continuing to write the legend ......"

Su Mu was not modest, and waved at her with a smile.

Qian Dai on the table finally couldn't help but run off the field, grabbed Su Mu's arm and jumped and jumped, originally going to hug his neck, because the height gap was uncomfortable, so she had to grab her arm to express her joy.

Su Mu patted her head: "Call your brother, let's drink together in the evening." ”

According to the ranking of jihad. The mercenary groups that advance in the first round will be redrawn three days later for the second tournament, which will take place during these three days. The other mercenary groups will also play their first round in turn. Su Mu was the first to win, which meant that he had three days of rest at a time.

On the first day, he spent the morning learning the more jerky wind wall in the intermediate magic of the wind system.

The wind wall is to summon the spirit of the wind to increase the ability of his comrades to resist magical attacks, and what he learned before was martial arts that emphasized individual attacks, but in yesterday's game, he knew that only when the strength of the entire team improved, could he win steadily.

In the afternoon, he was about to familiarize himself with the spells he had just learned, but he was pestered by Qiandai to go to the street together, Su Mu swore to die, and it happened that Wang Yufei came, and the atmosphere became embarrassing, and in desperation, Su Mu chose to go shopping with Qiandai.

The next day, a messenger came from the kingdom of Sis, bringing the congratulations of the king of the king, and also bringing the news that the king of the king was seriously ill, and said: "Don't worry, I will not die until you enter the top four of the holy war, and I will live to see the day when you return home with honor......"

Su Mu laughed again and again when he heard this, Long Ka really wanted to try to put pressure on himself......

"Why is my father sick?" he asked.

"The defense line in southern Xinjiang is overwhelmed, and most of the 50,000 soldiers brought by the Han Mandarin Prince of Kachu have suffered from some minor illnesses due to water and soil inadaptability, and have now retreated to the defense line for eighty miles. ”

Su Mu frowned: "Huawu Kingdom has already invaded Xisi Country?"

"Yes. Many people in southern Xinjiang who had no time to retreat were suffering from misery, men were slaves, women were prostitutes, old and young were killed, and the king was seriously ill because he was worried about the country and the people. ”

"Kill both the old and the young?" asked Su Mu in shock.

Laijin was frightened by his demeanor and took a step back, and said with some embarrassment: "This is the ...... of war"

Su Mu whispered to himself in a daze: "He is right, the happiness of children is indeed insignificant......"

"What did the prince say?" asked the envoy, poking his head out.

"Nothing...... You go back and tell your father, I will do my best to reach the semi-finals, return to the country of Xisi with everyone's respect, and then go to the border to help the second brother and the third brother fight against foreign enemies. ”

The envoy bowed his head: "Yes, prince." ”

"When are you going back?"

"I'll leave tomorrow. ”

The dormitory of the five princes of the kingdom of Xisi.

The fifth prince is trying to persuade the sixth prince: "Sixth brother, we only have this chance, otherwise when Su Mu returns to China, he will inevitably be supported by the whole country, and it will be impossible to bring him down at that time, this is a godsend, sixth brother." ”

"But......" The sixth prince still hesitated, "my father is already bedridden, and I am afraid that I will ...... if I suffer such a blow again."

"It's better if my father dies, and he Su Mu won't want to do it for a day. ”

The sixth prince looked at him reproachfully: "Fifth brother, how can you say such a thing? Father and seventh brother are all members of our family." ”

"Sixth brother, do you want to see the day when Su Mu ascends to the throne? Do you want to see our power shrink day by day under his suppression in the future? Do you want to see him keep us under close watch and send us to prison at the slightest mistake? These things are about to happen, and we can't sit idly by. ”

"The seventh brother shouldn't be that kind of person. ”

"He's a wolf's ambition! Don't you see what he did to us a few years ago? He didn't even bother to say a word to you. Obviously, he has long lost his brotherhood in his heart. Sixth brother. This is our only chance. Listen to me, you only need to be responsible for creating public opinion in the country, and I will take care of the rest. ”

The sixth prince looked at him timidly: "What are you going to do?"

A trace of ruthlessness flashed in the eyes of the fifth prince, and he sneered, "Just in time for Su Mu to participate in the holy war...... My father fell ill, and this was a godsend. The messenger who went to Dula Country to deliver the letter this time was my person, and I had already explained it to him, no matter what Su Mu said. When he reported to his father after returning to China, he said that Su Mu was extremely arrogant and indifferent to his father's serious illness and the invasion of Huawu Kingdom. ”

"But what public opinion should I create?"

"Listen to me, not only to say that he is indifferent to his father and state affairs, but also to slander him for trying on the dragon robe in the hotel that night, and to tell the people around him that he can't wait to be the king......"

The sixth prince laughed, and spread his hands outrageously: "Does my father believe it?"

The fifth prince smiled gloomily: "Do you know that the commander of the Praetorian Guard, Khan Morui, has been secretly supporting me?"

"You know, didn't you sue me the other day? ”

"Who is the deputy head of the Maoqiuer Mercenary Regiment?"

"O brother of Khan Mori. The fifth brother is to say......"

"Not bad...... The leader of the Praetorian Guard, Khan Morui, has been trusted by his father for many years, if Khan Moxian told his brother that he saw Li Yichen proudly wearing a dragon robe in the hotel, do you think his father would believe it?"

The sixth prince nodded in a daze: "I probably believe it." ”

The fifth prince smiled proudly: "And with his indifference to state affairs, no matter how high his spiritual power is." What qualifications do you have to be a prince? Not only that, but I also asked people to forge a secret letter. Saying that he had secretly betrayed some secrets of Xi Siguo's offensive and defensive strategies and political decision-making with the Qi Qi Kingdom, hum, this was enough to make my father crazy. ”

"Father will believe that this letter was written by the seventh brother?"

"I have studied Lao Qi's handwriting recently, it is very different from the past, he is now writing the king character is very simple, three horizontal and one vertical, it is the simplified Chinese character that was popular on the mainland many years ago, my father has also been aware of it, but I have not been concerned about such a trivial matter, do you say this is not a godsend? What's more, the prime minister Tu Ge that my father relies on is my father-in-law, and when he comes to speak from the side, what reason does my father have not to believe it?"

The sixth prince smiled flatteringly: "The fifth brother is really clever. ”

The fifth prince said: "In three days, the letter will be sent back by the soldiers on the front line of the border defense, I can't help but believe it, I can't help but believe it, you just wait to see the show, and when Su Mu is driven to the country, then the prince will be selected among you and me, and the world will be in charge of you and my brothers in the future, what a pleasure." ”

"The fifth brother is extremely smart, I am not qualified to compete with you, I just hope that the fifth brother will have more protection for my brother in the future, and the sixth brother is willing to assist the fifth brother for the rest of his life. ”

The fifth prince seemed to have seen the day he sat on the throne, laughed proudly, waved his hand and said, "Whatever the sixth brother says, the fifth brother will not treat you badly." ”

In the evening, Longka went to the back garden with the help of colored ink, and there were several plates of delicate snacks and two cups of fragrant tea on the low square table.

The father and daughter whispered something and smiled. The sound of insects chirping in the flowers makes it more and more quiet.

At the entrance, the fifth prince and Khan Morui hurriedly walked over, and the fifth prince looked frightened: "Father, have you heard?"

"What did you hear?" Ronka looked up weakly.

"It's spread in the city, and it's been talked about everywhere, and the seventh brother is ...... It's unbelievable that he'd do such a thing. ”

Caimo obviously didn't know what he was talking about, and asked Longka with his eyes.

Long Ka took a sip of tea and said lightly: "I know very well who the seventh brother is, I don't need others to talk about it, your trust in your seventh brother, can't even match the folk gossip?"

Caimo looked nervous: "Father, what's wrong with the seventh brother?"

Long Ka held Caimo's hand: "Your seventh brother is fine, it's okay." ”

The fifth prince lowered his head, peeked at Longka with his eyes, and said boldly: "But there is no wind and no waves, and the trees do not come out of the wind and do not urge, and the commander of Khan Morui can prove that this matter is not groundless." It's not that I don't believe in Lao Qi, it's just that I can't tolerate others doing such a rebellious thing, even if he is my brother, I won't have any favoritism. ”

"Are you going to get justice?" Ronka looked at him with displeasure.

"Your Majesty ......," Khan Morui, who came with the fifth prince, spoke: "My brother Khan Moxie sent someone to send a message. He was silent for a moment. Say it with determination: "It is true." Mo Xie saw the prince wearing a dragon robe in the pavilion with his own eyes, and asked Mo Xie to call him King Xisi. ”

The teacup fell to the ground, and the porcelain pieces bloomed like flowers.

Longka's body was shocked, he had heard this news from his attendants yesterday, but he had never believed it, and at this moment, when he heard the commander of the Praetorian Guard who he trusted the most also say this, he couldn't help but start to think about it again, and he stood up. His fingers trembled uncontrollably, pointing at Khan Morui, and his eyes were full of fierceness: "You look at me and say, word by word, tell me, the seventh ...... Did he do that?"

Caimo also stood up in surprise, subconsciously stretched out his hand to support Long Ka, and looked at Khan Moxie in a daze.

Khan Morui forced his composure, glanced at Longka, and turned his gaze away: "The prince may just be confused for a while, and he will definitely be able to get lost if he teaches him in the future." ”

Longka's eyes were instantly full of fatigue, and his face was full of tiredness. Slumped in his chair, his voice getting quieter: "Go down." No one is to mention this matter again. ”

"I don't believe it!Father, don't believe them, they are jealous that Seventh Brother has become the crown prince, and they are spreading rumors!" Cai Moqing said excitedly.

The fifth prince spread his hands innocently: "Ninth sister, I don't care who is the prince at all, as long as the Xisi country can be prosperous and strong, I, Li Fanjian, will fully support him, I love our family, I love our country even more, believe me, I'm not targeting Lao Qi, I'm just thinking about the Xisi country." ”

"Caimo, send them out. Ronka raised his hand weakly.

Zhengming Lide Hall.

This is the first time that the court has discussed this matter since Ronka fell ill, and the importance of this matter is self-evident, and it is related to the fate of the crown prince of the country and the future of the country.

Long Ka didn't believe it at all, but listening to Khan Morui's words last night made his trust in Li Yichen shake, but after all, he didn't see tangible evidence with his own eyes, and he still had hope and was willing to believe in his seventh son.

He looked at the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty and said: "Recently, there have been some rumors in the country, and it is rumored that the prince wore a dragon robe privately in the mansion of Dura Country when I was sick and bedridden......"

He paused for a moment and looked up at the sky outside the hall.

The ministers whispered and chattered, and the buzzing sound was endless.

Longka added: "If there is no one in a country who can put an end to the rumors, it will be a very dangerous thing, from this day on, if anyone mentions this matter again, bring him over immediately, and I will personally interrogate him if he has seen the prince wearing the dragon robe, and if not, he will be punished with broken eyes." ”

Long Ka stretched out his hand, and the maid on the side immediately came to help, and when he was about to walk off the desk, a guard rushed over and knelt on the ground: "Secret letter from the front line of border defense." ”

Longka's body trembled, and he sat back down on the desk. "Present it. ”

The eyes of the civil and military monarchs of the Manchu Dynasty all stayed on Long Ka's face, and I saw that he changed from the worry before opening the letter to the shock when reading the letter, and then sluggishness, fear, and anger...... The case was slapped and roared: "Who intercepted this letter?!"

The comer raised his head and said, "Back to the king of Xisi, intercepted by the defense line of the third prince, the person who bears the letter is preparing to be sent to the military camp of the kingdom opposite, this person is now imprisoned in the garrison camp, and obeys the king's fate. ”

"Did he recruit him?" asked Ronka, who was experiencing both physical and mental pain.

"It's called, it's from the hands of the prince. ”

Prime Minister Tugo stepped forward, and when he opened his mouth to ask something, he finally didn't say anything, and bowed his head and retreated.

"Retreat! Tugo stayed. ”

After the ministers had left, Ronka handed the letter to the maid and pointed to Tugo.

Tu Ge hurriedly stepped forward to take the secret letter, covered it with a wide sleeve, looked down, and after reading it, his face was bloodless, his head was covered with sweat, and he asked while wiping: "Your Majesty, this letter clearly displays all the offensive and defensive points of my Xisi country, and it contains some political secrets...... And this letter is written in simplified Chinese, this kind of penmanship has been lost on the mainland for a long time, and I have only seen the prince write this kind of simplified style recently, could it be ...... Could it be that the prince really has a heart of disobedience?"

After Tu Ge finished speaking, he knelt on the ground in a panic and kowtowed: "Weichen is panicked, he is at a loss for a while, he shouldn't talk about the prince in vain, please punish the king." ”

Long Ka's face turned pale: "This letter is indeed the handiwork of Lao Qi." ”

Tu Ge bowed his head: "The king is angry, take care of the dragon's body." ”

Longka clenched his teeth, his fists turned white, and he suddenly became angry. The throat tightened. A mouthful of blood spurted out. Passed out to the ground.

The knockout round of the Holy War has reached the third round, and Su Mu won the first two games, especially after the second game was reasonably arranged and tactics, he defeated the opponent without any suspense.

At present, only 12 of the 48 teams participating in the competition have left. These twelve mercenary groups are undoubtedly powerful, especially the furball mercenary group is about to face a backwater battle with Hollywood tomorrow, and the Hollywood mercenary group led by Kodak is a powerful country.

A playful smile tugged at the corner of his mouth...... Hollywood Mercenary Group...... Hmph....... just wait. Lao Tzu roasted you as a pig, and the worst state of beating people is that you don't know your own mother, right? Then I will let your old lady never recognize whose seed you are for the rest of your life.

He is very satisfied with being able to play against the country in the group stage, which is what he dreamed of, if it weren't for the invasion of the country, Caimo would not have suffered such grievances, and this account can finally vent his anger today.

To be able to reach the top 12 all the way, Su Mu mainly relied on his concurrent skills, which often made it difficult for opponents to guard against, but in the final analysis, it was because the number of spiritual power of those opponents was equivalent to his own, if he was replaced by the third runner-up of the last holy war. Can the Hollywood mercenary group led by Kodak, a fifth-stage second-level thunder warrior, still win easily?

Su Mu's belief is very simple. Also with some newborn calves are not afraid of the tiger's temperament, no matter how strong you are, I have to do my best, one to live up to the expectations of the country, and the other to fight with the master is also an opportunity to improve yourself, such a good thing, how can you retreat. It doesn't matter what third runner-up you are, even if you can't defeat you, I have to create some deadly threats for you, so that you know that I, Su Mu, am not easy to mess with.

The backyard of the hotel.

Su Mu was holding the Night Charm Book in his hand, and he was looking at the last skill he could learn with his current spiritual power, summoning divine beasts.

He was thrilled that he could finally summon the furballs...... Ancient Beasts...... What does it look like? I hope it's not too ugly......

Maybe in the future, I will teach it to speak, let it be friends with humans, and not be like the previous Seven Princes who didn't let it touch it.

"Su Mu!" An extraordinarily active scream sounded in his ears, Su Mu moved his buttocks back, frowning with some reflex: "Why are you here again?"

"Aren't you going to watch the individual competition?"

"Go by yourself, it's nothing to do with me. ”

Qian Dai held her palms in front of her chest and said longingly, "Do you know who is participating in the competition today?"

"It's a big deal. ”

Qiandai jumped up excitedly: "Yes, yes...... It's Hui Yilan. ”

"Didn't you see it yesterday, and she was nothing more than that. Su Mu continued to read again.

Hearing that her idol's strength was not recognized, Qiandai immediately felt a little displeased: "What do you know? Yesterday was the team competition, in order to cooperate with the team's tactics, her own strength was not fully exerted at all, and the individual competition was different, it was a special event that belonged to her alone, and she would definitely defeat her opponent with great personality." ”

"En......" Su Mu had no interest in listening, and responded casually.

Qian Dai turned her head to look around, squatted beside him, and said softly, "While there is no one now, let's talk about some personal topics, shall we?"

Su Mu looked at her with a strange expression: "What are you talking about on a private topic?"

"Talk about you and Wang Yufei, you see, she divorced you because you had no spiritual power, and now that your spiritual power has recovered, do you plan to get back together with her?"

Su Mu knocked her on the head: "Can you pay less attention to these indifferent things?" I was already a Night Charm Warrior when I was your age, and you are not ashamed?" After speaking, Su Mu himself was ashamed first, not to mention two years ago, he didn't know what the Night Charm Warrior was doing two months ago.

"I ...... How can I compare to you? I'm a girl. Qian Dai said the last sentence, raising her chin quite proudly.

"Hui Yilan isn't it?"

"That's why I adore her. Qiandai looked like a matter of course. "Besides, even if I cultivate for ten years, it is not as fast as eating an immortal monster's demon core, my brother will help me fight the demon core, and when the holy war is over, he will lead the team to the demon world. ”

Su Mu laughed and said, "You mean the immortal monster?"

"That's right. Qiandai's tone was as disdainful as if the immortal monster was just a puppy that could only bite: "Isn't it just an immortal monster, what's the big deal?"

Su Mu didn't want their brothers and sisters to take the risk lightly: "I've heard my ninth sister say that Yege once led a mercenary group to kill the Immortal Monster, and he was the only one who came out alive, so you must look at this matter carefully." ”

Qian Dai untied her braids, combed her fingers a few times, tied them back up, and was about to speak, Su Mu couldn't help but say, "Your hair is good and not messy, why are you dismantling it like this?"

Qian Dai smiled: "Others say that my braiding action is very beautiful." ”

Su Mu was speechless for a while, and then laughed: "So you pierce this more than a dozen times a day?"

"I don't say anything to the people I do, but the people you see are troublesome?"

"No hassle, no hassle. Su Mu waved his hand again and again, and he could see clearly with his eyes closed that this girl was definitely not easy to mess with. (To be continued......)
