Chapter 661 Meeting
He and Jie Liancheng grew up together and were close enough to be like brothers.
This can be seen from the fact that Xie Liancheng habitually still calls him by his original name Zhou Hongxu.
From kindergarten to elementary school, to junior high school, high school, and even university, they were in the same school and were even assigned to the same class.
The only difference is that Zhou Xu's academic performance has always been quite good, while Jie Liancheng was specially recruited into high school and university as a sports athlete.
And during their graduation trip, they were in a car accident on the same bus and died together...
My goodness, from this point of view, they are simply living and dying together.
There was only so much that could be written on this small piece of paper. To sum it up in one sentence, it was about asking him to meet outside the city tonight for a chat, and it also gave a rough location.
"My lord, is this too dangerous?"
As the captain of the personal guards, he was responsible for Zhou Xu's life safety. After having a general understanding of the situation, Silk couldn't help but express his concerns.
"Don't worry, he and I are old friends."
Although he and Jie Liancheng have not seen each other for several years since the car accident, Zhou Xu still trusts his childhood friend very much.
Jie Liancheng was a gold medalist in the World Wushu Championships, a national Wuying-level martial arts athlete, and a member of the national team long before he traveled through time.
Later, he switched to mixed martial arts. Before graduating from college, he won the UFC world championship and was known as the most capable college student in China.
To put it bluntly, he was outside Huangsha City at that time. If Xie Liancheng wanted to kill him, he would have died long ago. There was no need to play tricks with him.
"Silk, you don't have night vision, so you don't need to come with me this time. With Drogo and the others, nothing will go wrong."
As the captain of Zhou Xu's personal guard, Silk's first reaction after hearing this was to refuse, but he found that he was powerless to refute.
Night vision is really a very important thing.
It is no exaggeration to say that because of the problem of vision, in a dark environment, an elven knight of the same specifications is basically no match for a centaur.
Without any delay, Zhou Xu quickly followed Joseph out of the city. At this moment, Drogo had already returned with a team of Centaur soldiers and was waiting at the door.
Although he didn't understand what was written on the note, he guessed that it might be something.
So he handed over the task of patrolling and reconnaissance to his subordinates, and ordered a team of Centaurs to rush back and stand by.
Looking at Drogo standing by outside the city, Zhou Xu's eyes lit up. He was a little surprised that Drogo could make such a judgment on his own before he gave any orders.
Compared to Diack, who is more functional, Drogo has three-star potential in both command and intelligence, and his bravery and endurance potential has even reached four stars. This five-dimensional panel can be said to be very comprehensive, which makes Zhou Xu have high hopes for it.
And now Drogo has completely lived up to his expectations and has gradually demonstrated his ability to stand on his own.
"Joseph, go and notify the team that is currently on patrol and reconnaissance missions, and ask them to increase their strength, take the initiative to attack, and disperse the opposing reconnaissance team. It would be best if you could capture them all alive. If necessary, it doesn't matter if you shoot a few of them. Go!"
"yes!"
After watching Joseph run away like the wind, Zhou Xu turned to look at Drogo.
"Let's go, let's go east to another place."
Obviously, this was an idea proposed by Xie Liancheng. After all, only when the reconnaissance team was busy with their own affairs could he spare time to meet Zhou Xu.
Zhou Xu didn't have to wait too long. Listening to the noise coming from afar, Drogo's nerves tensed up slightly.
That night, even if Zhou Xu activated the "Eye of Insight", his eyesight was not as good as Drogo and the others. After the distance was shortened to a certain extent, Drogo saw the other party's appearance clearly and reported quickly.
"That's right, he is."
Before, outside the Yellow Sand City, Drogo had fought a battle with Jie Liancheng. After overturning the opponent's mount with "War Charge", he relied on his stronger mobility to barely deal with the opponent, but he could not change the reality that he began to fall into a disadvantage after more than a dozen rounds.
Given the situation at that time, if he continued fighting, he would definitely be defeated.
This made Drogo quite afraid of him. It was hard for him to imagine that a human could be so strong.
Seeing Drogo's tension, Zhou Xu patted him on the shoulder and signaled him to relax and not be too nervous.
At the same time, Xie Liancheng's voice came from a distance.
"Hongxu?"
"Lao Jie, this way!"
They had already distanced themselves in advance, so from this position, they were not afraid that the other side would discover them.
After hearing each other's voices, they were completely relieved.
When they got closer, they saw them dismounting from their horses almost at the same time, and after a few quick steps, they hugged each other tightly and patted each other on the back, expressing their joy at the reunion of the two brothers.
After they separated, Xie Liancheng couldn't help feeling a sore nose when looking at Zhou Xu in front of him, and then he hugged him tightly once again.
“I’m sorry, I’m sorry…”
Listening to the other party's apologies, Zhou Xu was stunned for a moment, then he sighed.
"Do you know how much I regretted it at that time? If I had known that there would be such a car accident, I wouldn't have dragged you to participate in that damn graduation trip!"
According to Zhou Xu's personality, he didn't really want to participate in this kind of group activity at that time. Later, he couldn't resist Jie Liancheng and was dragged there.
There is no need to say more about what happened next.
Xie Liancheng really thought that Zhou Xu was dead. In his opinion, he was the one who killed his own brother. This regret and pain had been suppressed in his heart until this moment, when it completely broke out.
"Well, I'm still alive, right? And now I'm a big shot. I can be considered to have survived a great disaster, so I'm sure I'll have good fortune in the future."
Hearing this, Xie Liancheng, who had been crying, finally laughed out loud.
“It seems so.”
He wiped the snot and tears from his face hard.
"Damn it, this is embarrassing for me."
After taking a deep breath, Xie Liancheng adjusted his mood and spoke again...
"Okay, let's get down to business."
As he spoke, Xie Liancheng told Zhou Xu about Yan Sheng's future plans.
After listening, Zhou Xu laughed.
"It seems like this guy is really losing the game."
[If it were me, I would definitely wait until the autumn harvest was over, start recruiting soldiers after winter, and then wait until the beginning of next spring to mobilize the troops, but this guy was obviously blinded by defeat and lost his mind, and he acted a little recklessly. ]
Thinking of this, out of caution, Zhou Xu still asked...
"Old Jie, do you think this is normal?"
"I don't find it strange. When that guy started wars and annexed neighboring countries, he also relied on weapons and manpower to attack. After winning battles in succession, he became more and more crazy, and his mentality became more and more arrogant, and he became more and more reckless."
After hearing this, Zhou Xu had a rough idea in his mind.
To put it bluntly, Yan Sheng's situation is just like that of some nouveau riche. After suddenly becoming rich, he becomes arrogant, refuses to listen to good or bad advice, does not take others seriously, and thinks he is invincible.
Then Zhou Xu suddenly jumped out and slapped him twice, making his face swollen.
At this time, Yan Sheng, who has already become inflated, will he reflect on himself? He will only get angry and then save his face at all costs! (End of this chapter)
