Chapter 207
207 "Bold Tang Ning, capture him!"
"Hurry up, my disciples, or you won't be able to see it if you're too late!"
Not long after Gao Yuan finished speaking, a quarrel was heard and a gust of wind blew in front of Xiang Jiannan's eyes.
The old Taoist priest stood up very quickly, and by the time he turned around to call them, his hand had already hooked up the curtain of the tent.
When the three walked out of the tent, they saw that there was chaos outside. Tang Ning, holding a man with a silver spear on his shoulder, was walking around the camp unscrupulously.
Surrounding him were the officials who had argued with Li Si before, as well as many soldiers who were eager to try.
Although everyone was anxious, they just expressed their excitement lip service. No one dared to actually get close to Tang Ning.
"Speak louder. My ears are not good."
No matter how the person in his hand struggled, Tang Ning laughed and shouted in a loud voice in the encirclement:
"Today I just need you to fill the sea. If you run into anyone from the Demon Subduing Division when you go down, don't forget to tell Tang Ning a message. Make sure you say something nice."
The officials were furious and looked at Li Si helplessly: "Master Li, what do you mean by this?"
“Don’t panic, my lords. Didn’t I, Li Si, also try to persuade him? Tang Ning, quickly put down Lord Wang’s confidant!”
The anger on his face was no less than that of the others, and his words were like thunder. Li Si's words seemed to have an effect after spreading layer by layer. Tang Ning suddenly paused as if he had heard it, and then responded in a loud voice: "Your Excellency is right. One person's words are indeed not enough to fill the sea. I will come back to catch them later."
Everyone present was stunned when they heard this. Then they looked at Li Si and saw that he had gone mad: "This is simply lawless! What should we do, gentlemen? Tang Ning can't hear what I, Li Si, say."
After saying this, he seemed to be about to explode. Although his eyes were blazing with anger, his movements were harmless.
"If we act rashly, we might hurt Lord Wang's confidant. This Tang Ning is really not taking me, Li Si, seriously anymore! He's just using his ears as a cover."
"What a great show!"
Thinking that if a fight really came to this, how many moves would Tang Ning be able to withstand at the hands of Li Si, and knowing what was in his mind, the middle-aged man who had been bickering with Li Si before snorted coldly.
During this period, he had ordered his men to take action several times, but Tang Ning was too fierce. Even with the gun in one hand, others could not get close to him at all.
"Master Chen, what do you mean by this? If you don't believe it, why don't you try it yourself?"
"With your master Chen's cultivation, if you want to subdue Tang Ning, it will be a piece of cake."
He didn't care about being exposed by the middle-aged man, and immediately let them figure it out themselves. Li Si smiled at the side.
He knew that Lord Chen would definitely not take action for an unrelated servant. Lord Wang, an official in the same dynasty and the real master, had not spoken yet.
"Why did it become like this?"
After following Tang Ning around for a few more circles, seeing that the life of the person in his hand was about to be lost, Lord Wang, who had been thinking about something in his heart, finally said, "Lord Li, today's matter ends here. Since you, the Demon Subduing Division, do not agree, we will naturally not say anything more. Everything will be done according to your rules. Do you have any objections?"
The officials present nodded after hearing these words, but they were already thinking about how to phrase the next words.
Take another look at Li Si's book.
"Since Lord Wang has spoken, I, Li Si, will certainly not be ungrateful. Let me try again."
This was the effect he wanted. After several officials nodded in agreement, Li Si turned around and looked at Tang Ning. This time he didn't need to say anything. He just pointed at the person in his hand, and Tang Ning, who couldn't eat or drink, let go of his hand. When he stopped, he said happily:
"If you had said so earlier, I would have understood it. It's just a pity. Who will be responsible for the reclamation today?"
It sounded like he was talking to Li Si, but his eyes unconsciously looked at those officials. He stared at them until their faces turned unclear, and then they turned their faces away as if they were angry.
Is it possible to be like this when we are officials in the same dynasty?
After the farce was over, Xiang Jiannan looked at everyone. His understanding of the Demon-Suppressing Division had been overturned by this incident. He did not expect that Li Si would be forced to act out directly.
Is the officialdom of the Great Zhou Dynasty so joyful? A group of people with no acting skills gathered together, which made him, a man who has watched countless movies, feel awkward. He turned his head and was about to look at his master when he saw Li Si and Tang Ning coming over. Together with Li Jin, the eyes of several people were very unstable.
There seems to be a conspiracy.
Thinking back to what they had said before about land reclamation, I immediately wanted to step back involuntarily.
Please...you...collect_6Ⅰ9ⅠBookⅠBar (Six\\\Nine\\\Book\\\Bar!)
I don't think he is targeting me, Xiang Jiannan.
"Three Taoist priests, please follow me."
Noticing Xiang Jiannan's retreat, Li Si approached him with a slightly apologetic look, and his smile was very bright at this time:
"I'm really sorry to have embarrassed you Taoist priests today. Let's leave now without further delay."
"Master Li, just lead the way."
He didn't care about Li Si's performance. Seeing that he was anxious, Gao Yuan set off immediately after he spoke. Together with the group of officials who had given in, they quickly left the base camp and soon arrived at the water's edge. At a glance, it was calm and there was no sign of a flood.
"Master, please look, if we wait here for a while, the sea water will become extremely fierce."
Turning his head to look at Gao Yu'an, and hearing Li Si's words, Xiang Jiannan didn't expect that he would have to wait any longer. Fortunately, it didn't take too long. Not long after Li Si spoke, he saw something seemed to be surging under the water in front of him. A certain part of the sea surface quickly bulged upward, and in the blink of an eye it was several feet higher than the surrounding area.
But before I could take a closer look, the bulging water surface suddenly fell down with a loud bang.
"Evil spirits will never succeed."
He regained his composure and turned to look at Li Si, seeing him shaking his head. Gao Yuan spoke calmly, and soon he heard gusts of cold wind in his ears. This time, it was the turn of the entire sea to raise waves several feet high. For a moment, endless pressure came from the air. Looking at the rising waves, everyone's faces became extremely ugly.
"Old Taoist priest, be careful. I don't know if it will hit the shore this time. The sea water is very strange."
Together with Gao Yu'an, they did not retreat. Looking at the sea water that seemed to be reaching the sky, Li Si spoke to remind it when it was about to pour down. After he finished speaking, he saw the old Taoist pointing with one hand. It was a very ordinary action, but it caused the already restless sea water to instantly become turbulent.
As if being punctured, water splashed down all over the sky, and all the people standing on the shore were affected at once. The soldiers who could not stand were even knocked down by the pressure of the water.
Before he could struggle out of his embarrassment, the sea water, which had just returned to its original state, started a new round of waves in the blink of an eye.
