Chapter 79: Quietly watching you drink chicken soup
Outside Beiluo City.
In a corner of the endless plain, a carriage was parked quietly. The horse was breathing hot air from its nostrils as it chewed the green grass on the plain.
The moonlight poured down from the sky, making the plains look white, cool and beautiful.
The curtain of the carriage was lifted.
The hunchbacked octogenarian got off the carriage, put his hands behind his back, and looked at the city of Beiluo that was looming in the night.
The coachman was Mo Shougui, who had a broken arm. His face was pale and he followed behind Mo Beike.
"Shougui, what time is it now?"
"In another cup of tea, it will be the Chou hour." Mo Shougui's voice was a little hoarse.
He looked at Beiluo City with a cold look in his eyes.
After all, one of his arms was cut off by Ning Zhao, and Ning Zhao was the maid of Young Master Lu, so the hatred naturally fell on Young Master Lu.
"It's the ugly hour..."
Mo Beike took a deep breath and his eye bags trembled.
According to the agreement, once they have taken control of Beiluo City, Wei Luan, one of the disciples of the Yin-Yang School, will release a signal. However...
Starting from the Zi hour, it is now the Chou hour.
Beiluo City was still eerily quiet, so quiet that it made people uneasy, like a dormant poisonous snake, emitting coldness in the darkness.
"Failed..."
Mo Beike felt a little melancholy and let out a breath. The wind in the middle of the night was a little cold, blowing his beard gently.
"Shougui, hurry up and go to Beijun."
Mo Beike got back into the carriage.
“Yes.”
Mo Shougui held the whip with one arm and pulled it hard. The carriage immediately turned around and galloped away at a high speed.
The wind blew, and Mo Shougui's long hair fluttered. He looked back at Beiluo City, with a trace of hatred like a poisonous snake in his eyes.
…
The edge of Wolong Ridge.
A bonfire was burning, illuminating the depths of the surrounding forest.
On the carpet covered with hay, there was a graceful figure lying on its side.
Xiang Shaoyun sat by the campfire, breathing in and out spiritual energy, with dark demonic energy constantly flowing around him.
"Reversing the immortal method is the magic skill..."
"One thought is immortal, one thought is devil?"
Xiang Shaoyun murmured.
This time, he was nearly dying, but he sold his soul to the devil, transformed himself into a devil, fought his way out, and survived.
He looked back and saw Luo Mingsang sleeping soundly on the hay. The murderous look on Xiang Shaoyun's face disappeared completely, leaving only gentleness.
Seeing the woman's peaceful face and the good times, he had no regrets.
In fact, he had no intention of becoming king.
He started an uprising just to make her the most noble woman in the world and let her have everything.
In fact, what Xiang Shaoyun likes most is to pursue martial arts and pursue the ultimate of his own strength.
It is said that tough guys have tender feelings, and Xiang Shaoyun is no exception.
The soft part of his heart is Luo Mingsang.
Childhood sweethearts.
However, turning his head back and looking at the burning bonfire, Xiang Shaoyun's eyes became even colder, bursting with terrifying murderous intent.
"Mo Beike..."
"What a pity that you failed to kill me. If you failed to kill me, this world... will never fall into the hands of your Mo family!"
Xiang Shaoyun's deep voice tore through the night sky.
When Xiang Shaoyun was looking at the campfire.
The long eyelashes of the woman lying on her side on the hay trembled slightly. She looked at the scarred back of the man sitting cross-legged by the campfire, and a touch of tenderness emerged in her eyes as bright as stars.
Behind the tenderness, there is a struggle, a mixture of pain and sadness.
She closed her eyes.
There was some painful murmur in my heart.
"Shaoyun, Mingsang doesn't deserve this from you, not worth it."
…
Drunken Dragon City.
The fog was thick and the whole city was in deathly silence like Beiluo, with everyone sleeping.
Outside the farmyard.
Jiang Li, wearing silver armor and covering his mouth and nose with a white cloth, held his helmet with one hand and looked at the courtyard with deep eyes. He could see a girl in the farmhouse who had fallen asleep because of the Yin-Yang fireflies.
The girl was sleeping soundly, as if she had had a wonderful dream. The dimples on her cheeks were blooming like peach blossoms, and her pretty face was slightly flushed.
Jiang Li had a blank expression on his face. Then he put on his helmet and turned away.
After walking a few steps, he put his thumb and index finger in a circle against his lips, like the sound of a whistle.
A white horse came galloping in the night, its white mane flying.
Jiang Li's figure fell on the white horse. There was a long spear on the saddle of the white horse, and an unsheathed rusty sword was slung on his waist.
After mounting the horse, Jiang Li hooked his foot and took the spear.
It transformed into a ray of white light and ran along the long street of Zuilong City in the night.
Several figures covering their mouths and noses followed Jiang Li and rushed into the vast night of Zuilong City.
On the long street.
The Yin-Yang school alchemist appeared like a ghost.
There are mechanical beasts roaring, poisonous insects flying around...
A bloody storm swept across the entire Zuilong City.
Jiang Li's eyes were as sharp as torches, and the sound of white horse's hooves exploded as rapid as raindrops. Holding a spear and wearing silver armor, he led his men, like a sharp sword, piercing straight into the darkness brought by the Yin-Yang school alchemist.
This is a bloody night.
Compared to the crushing of Beiluo City.
The war in Zuilong City is normally cruel.
The terror of the Yin-Yang School's alchemists was fully displayed this night, along with the mechanical beasts of the Mechanical School and the Mohist School's rangers.
The three were like terrifying giant hands, destroying the Zhou Dynasty's solid defenses.
When the first ray of dawn light leaps out from the end of the horizon and spreads across the earth.
On the long street that had been bloody all night, the sound of armor clanging could be heard.
Jiang Li walked out from the corpses step by step. He threw his spear on the ground, put his hand on the hilt of the unsheathed rusty sword at his waist and exhaled. Behind him, there were shattered mechanical beasts and piled corpses of Yin-Yang family alchemists on the ground...
Of course, there were also bodies belonging to his men.
Jiang Li's face was numb. He had seen too many deaths and had long been accustomed to it.
The dawn light shone on his face, causing him to squint.
Behind him, a woman covered in blood followed him.
"Deal with the body..."
"Wait until everyone wakes up and guard the city."
Jiang Li Road.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
“Yes.”
The woman responded tiredly, and when she saw the unsheathed rusty sword at Jiang Li's waist, her eyes suddenly became fanatical.
Lord Jiang's rusty sword has not even been unsheathed, which shows that this crisis is nothing at all.
Watching Jiang Li leave with blood all over his body, leaving a trail of blood with every step, the fanaticism in the woman's eyes disappeared, leaving behind a bit of complexity. She knew where Jiang Li was going, but she did not follow him to disturb him.
Farmyard.
Jiang Li took off his helmet and removed the bloody cloth covering his mouth and nose. His hair was a little messy.
He entered the farmhouse, blew out the candle that was about to burn out, and looked at the peaceful face of the sleeping girl. He stretched out his hand and trembled, afraid that blood would stain her face, so he withdrew it.
He walked to the door of the farmhouse, sat on the threshold with a sword on his shoulder, his back straight, and looked at the morning light that broke through the clouds in the sky.
Watching the clouds roll by, waiting for the girl to wake up.
Inside the house.
The girl woke up slowly and saw a burly figure sitting on the doorstep.
She screamed and sat up suddenly, and the chick Xiao Fengyi, who was sleeping soundly curled up on her chest, was immediately thrown out.
It landed beside the bloody figure sitting on the threshold.
Jiang Li glanced at the chicken expressionlessly, then looked at the girl on the bed and raised his eyebrows.
"Is this... the chicken for today's soup?"
Bai Qingniao's face flushed with embarrassment.
"Uncle Jiang, when did you come?"
She became frightened, picked up Xiaofeng and stuffed it into her clothes, then ran to the kitchen.
"The soup will be ready soon, Uncle Jiang, wait a minute..."
After a while.
Jiang Li put the blood-stained helmet on the ground and drank the orange chicken soup and ate the fragrant chicken with relish.
The white bird rested its chin on its hand and looked at Jiang Li who was drinking soup and eating chicken, its eyes narrowed into crescents.
The first time she saw Jiang Li covered in blood, she was really scared.
However, after seeing it so many times, she got used to it and was no longer afraid of blood.
She just liked to watch him drink the soup quietly. What did he do, or who he killed, had nothing to do with her? The pot of soup was empty.
Jiang Li wiped the oil stains from the corner of his mouth.
Stand up.
"I'm leaving."
He would drink his soup and leave; he never stayed long.
"That chicken... fatten it up." Jiang Li walked to the door, stopped and said.
He glanced at Xiao Fengyi, whose head popped out from Bai Qingniao's chest, and curled the corners of his mouth.
He definitely wasn't jealous of that chick.
I just simply thought that the chicken might be delicious when used in soup.
…
Great Zhou, the imperial capital.
At dawn.
The warm morning sun shines all over the earth.
Outside the imperial capital, there were six fast horses, the sound of their hooves bursting like raindrops, rushing into the capital without slowing down.
These six fast horses came from the six major cities in the imperial capital, and they had urgent news to deliver.
The main hall of the imperial palace.
After reading the six urgent letters, Yuwen Xiu threw them away in a rage and slapped the dragon throne, causing a shocking sound to echo throughout the hall.
All the officials looked at each other in bewilderment, and some high-ranking officials who had received the intelligence lowered their heads, not daring to breathe.
The old eunuch picked up the dispatch.
"read!"
Yuwen Xiu gave the order with a cold face.
The old eunuch did not dare to disobey and read out the urgent message in a shrill voice.
All officials were shocked! The six major defense cities of the Great Zhou capital were attacked.
The four cities of Beiluo, Zuilong, Wangtian and Pingnan were defended with difficulty. The lords of Yuanchi and Tong'an were killed, the noble families in the cities rioted, and the people were in panic.
Yuwen Xiu looked at the officials who were only in shock, his face full of disappointment.
He waved his sleeves to leave the court and rushed to the study.
…
When the imperial capital was shaken by the attack on the six major city defenses.
Beiluo City, Lu Mansion.
The morning light shines down.
Bringing the morning mist and comfort.
Lu Fan sat in a wheelchair, drinking porridge.
In front of him, Ni Yu had her hair tied into a bun, her eyes filled with tears, she beat her chest and stamped her feet, staring at Lu Fan eagerly.
