The head is full of dead branches.
The morning light sprinkles gold.
The dry branches seemed to be covered with a hazy golden halo.
The illusion of beauty.
I don’t know if it was an illusion, but Cheng Lin felt dizzy for a moment when he looked at the forest.
He took a big bite of the biscuit.
Still hesitant.
"Or, let's wait a little longer!"
Inside the big tent.
Zhan Zixing exclaimed.
...
...
"I figured it out! I figured it out!"
There was a faint layer of dark circles under his eyes.
But his eyes were full of spirit.
Not a trace of fatigue.
At this time, Xiao Yuqi was entertaining guests in the side tent.
The so-called distinguished guests are three representatives sent by the ten major families.
The Zhou family is the first of the ten great families.
The Helian family respects martial arts.
There is also the Jiang family, which is known as the God of Wealth in the North.
The head of the family and the deputy head of the family are all in Xiao Yuqi's hands.
They were able to remain calm and only went to Xiao Yuqi's house last night to beg him to release the people.
Xiao Yuqi was sitting at the top, playing with the jade dragon ring in his hand nonchalantly.
There was a faint smile at the corner of his lips.
Left them out all night.
Apparently, that's still not enough.
The noble family lowered its noble head.
Kneeling in front of him, trembling with fear.
They showed the utmost humility.
Attempted to reach a reconciliation with Xiao Yuqi.
"Your Majesty, I am a commoner!"
Loud shouts were heard from outside.
Xiao Yuqi was just fed up with getting along with these three people.
He stood up.
Slowly put the white jade ring on your thumb.
"If this is your sincerity, then please go back!"
The curtains were drawn back.
As soon as Xiao Yuqi went out.
Zhan Xingxing immediately ran towards Xiao Yuqi.
"His Majesty!"
He was a man who could not hide things, so Xiao Yuqi just raised his hand slightly.
Zhan Xingxing immediately realized the inappropriateness of his behavior.
He quickly covered his mouth and looked left and right.
He belatedly felt the eyes being cast upon him.
Xiao Yuqi continued to move forward.
Zhan Zixing lowered his head and trotted after him.
Inside the side tent, the Zhou, Tumen and Jiang families knelt down and looked at each other.
"Now, what shall we do?"
They didn't deliberately drag so many geniuses here.
In fact.
After the young masters were captured one after another.
Among the top ten families, nearly half of them had internal strife.
Main family, side branch, direct line, illegitimate line.
Everyone desires that supreme position.
Money, power.
Those who don't have it fantasize about having it.
Some people fantasize more.
This is how people are.
Desire is insatiable.
Always saying that money is vulgar and power is burdensome.
Idle clouds and wild cranes are the most unrestrained, unfettered and leisurely.
But, who doesn’t try their best to climb higher?
I didn't fight in the past.
Because there is no dispute.
When equal opportunities are presented to everyone.
When you are only one step away from the top.
Who can resist fighting?
When I think of the mess in my clan.
If the heads of the family were still here.
How could this be?
A person who was once a very good person, now has the face of a bodhisattva and the heart of an evil ghost revealed.
Every step is calculated.
I wish I could fight everyone to the death.
"From what His Majesty said, he thinks we gave too little?"
Zhou Xuanting's fourth brother Zhou Xuanqing spoke hesitantly.
Tu Men Wuguo spoke angrily.
"We would like to give more, but some people are not happy about it!"
Today, the three of them were able to arrive here safely. I wonder how much they had planned in secret.
From the moment they stepped into His Majesty's military camp, they put their lives and property on the line.
Who has it easier than who?
Jiang Yao is the only woman among the three.
She was the younger sister of the head of the Jiang family and the aunt of Jiang Zhiheng.
If it weren’t for the accidents that happened to my eldest brother and nephew this time.
She really thought that her sweet-looking sister-in-law was a good person.
Colluding with a man outside her family and trying to seize her Jiang family's property?
Her sister-in-law just got married, not dead.
Does that bitch really think that there is no one left in her Jiang family?
The more Jiang Yao thought about it, the angrier she became.
She straightened her back.
"If Your Majesty thinks it's too little, my Jiang family is willing to give up half of our family property, as long as it can bring my brother and nephew back."
As soon as these words came out.
The other two men gasped.
"Half? Are you crazy? Will your sister-in-law agree?"
Jiang Yao stood up and brushed the dust off her knees.
"As long as my brother comes back, what right does that bitch have to disagree?"
She figured it out and realized that giving away half of it was better than giving it all away.
We can’t let that bitch and that adulterer get away with it for nothing.
"Fan Jiang, His Majesty invites you!"
Wang Dajun came in from outside.
He respectfully made a gesture of invitation to Jiang Yao.
Things took a turn for the better.
Jiang Yao returned the greeting respectfully.
"I obey your command."
Jiang Yao followed Wang Dajun out of the tent.
In the huge tent, only Zhou Xuanqing and Tumen Wuguo were left staring at each other.
"What is she doing?"
"Let's wait a little longer. Maybe there will be a turn for the better."
Zhou Xuanqing stood up and looked at the swaying door curtain.
Tu Men Wuguo immediately stood up and paced anxiously in the tent.
"Mrs. Fan is very sensible and has the same bearing and courage as any man. I just wonder if my brother and Mrs. Fan have the same ideas?"
Jiang Yao snorted coldly.
"If he dares to disagree, I will no longer care about him and let him be a tortoise for thousands of years. I will only take my eldest nephew back. Whether he is dead or alive, I will no longer ask."
Jiang Yao and Jiang Heng are twins.
Since she was a child, Jiang Yao felt that she and her indecisive brother were born with the wrong gender.
She got angry when she saw that he had no opinion of his own.
Wang Dajun stopped.
Turn around and nod.
"I will take my wife to see the head of the Jiang family. Whether we can bring her back safely depends entirely on you, my lady!"
Only then did Jiang Yao understand the soldier in front of her.
Much more powerful than she had imagined.
Jiang Yao became solemn.
"Yes, I will live up to your expectations."
On the quadruple door.
We are experiencing a war without gunpowder.
Zuo Ying took the lead.
The army followed closely behind.
Cheng Lin was the last one to leave.
The scouts had reported that if one was fast enough, it would only take a stick of incense to make a round trip through the woods.
But Zuo Ying felt that he had been walking for a long time, but for some reason he had not yet walked out of the woods.
He looked up at the sky.
The sparse branches strangely made it impossible to see the sky clearly.
It was quiet all around.
Zuo Ying looked back suddenly.
There was no one behind him.
Where is the team?
What about the scouts who led the way for him?
The world was silent, as if there were only the forest and himself.
A strange hand, wielding a knife, came straight towards him.
Zuo Ying dodged and avoided it.
The hand and the scimitar disappeared together.
The picture is weird.
Creepy.
"Who is playing tricks here?"
He shouted loudly.
No one responded.
The surrounding trees seemed to be moving.
The knife waited for its chance.
Appear again.
Zuo Ying swung his knife.
I want to chop off that weird hand.
Blades collided with blades.
With a clang sound.
The blade vibrated and made a buzzing sound.
The surrounding trees couldn't help but tremble.
There was a cut on the sharp scimitar.
Zuo Ying couldn't believe it.
His knife was made of fine iron, and could cut through iron like mud, but it actually left a hole in it?
A distraction.
The knife disappeared again.
However, the half of the opponent's blade that he had cut off fell to the ground.
Now, Zuo Ying felt balanced.
Someone else broke through the defense.
No more weird knives.
Zuo Ying noticed that the tree in front of him also disappeared.
He rushed forward rapidly.
A long knife slashed forward recklessly.
Nothing was cut.
The world was empty and only he was left.
Time stands still.
Nothing.
For a while.
Zuo Ying couldn't even tell whether this was a test of his courage or a test of his psychology?
When Yu Kun and Chen Gang arrived.
We went up from the first gate and reached the fourth gate very smoothly.
Didn't meet a single living person.
Although Yu Kun is a bit reckless, he is not stupid.
He immediately sent someone back to report the news.
He followed Xiao Yuqi's instructions and did not move forward rashly.
Instead, he brought his men and horses and surrounded the woods, cursing.
"You bunch of cowards, despicable villains who cannot stand the light, if you have the guts, come out and fight me face to face. Only people without guts would hide behind a small forest and do shameful things."
Yu Kun shouted a series of impolite words.
Then he bumped into Chen Gang's shoulder.
Motioned to him.
Chen Gang pointed at the grove and kept saying “you, you, you” for a long time.
He tried to hold it in until his face turned red and his neck became thick, before he finally managed to utter four words.
"you're right."
Yu Kun: “…”
Against a stick?
"I asked you to follow me in scolding, who asked you to follow me in praising?"
Chen Gang's face turned even redder.
Even though he is a man.
Although I often hear people talking nonsense in the army.
But he really doesn't speak very well.
I'm always a little embarrassed to talk about it.
"You bunch of bastards, did you hide behind me and peed your pants when you saw me coming? I'm telling you, you're grown-ups, you won't have to go back to your mother to wash your pants if you peed them, right?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
Someone pushed the useless Chen Gang aside.
He very cleverly agreed: "What mother? I think it's wife!"
"Oh, you are praising them too much. What kind of girl from a good family would marry a loser who wets his pants and can't even wash his pants?"
"Ha ha ha ha!"
The crowd was in an uproar.
You say something back and forth, it's not very aggressive but extremely insulting.
The rebels who were lying in ambush in the woods and at the Five-Layer Gate heard these words and gnashed their teeth in hatred.
"I'm going to go out and fight those bastards!"
"If you go out now and ruin the mountain master's plan, aren't you afraid of the mountain master's punishment?"
"A gentleman can be killed but not humiliated. I really can't stand this humiliation."
"Hey, listen to the boss, let's be patient."
On the forest side, there were several large baskets filled with sarcastic remarks.
Each basket is different.
In the middle of the woods, there was a silent fight and the atmosphere became increasingly tense.
Over in the woods, the sounds of teeth grinding and fists clenching could be heard continuously.
But a small space.
The three worlds were forcibly separated.
Chen Gang only felt a new sensation in his ears.
His brain hasn't figured out what the previous sentence was alluding to.
The next sentence popped out, constantly refreshing his understanding of nonsense.
He really opened his eyes today.
Oh no, my ears are open!
