Chapter 65: The Fire of the Taishou Mansion
In the Yangnan Inn, Ji Wushuang was dressed in civilian clothes and sat cross-legged alone in front of a wine table. On the wine table were a plate of peanuts and a pot of hot wine.
Pouring himself a glass of wine, Ji Wushuang picked up the glass and sniffed the aroma of the wine. The strong smell of wine immediately entered Ji Wushuang's nose. Although it was only rosemary that had been stored for twenty years, the taste was still mellow enough. Courtyard Gate
Suddenly opened, Diexiang walked into the courtyard wearing a red dress, bowed to Ji Wushuang: "I've met you, sir!"
Diexiang clasped his hands in fists and looked extremely respectful. In front of the man in front of him who had single-handedly changed the world, Diexiang did not dare to have the slightest thought of disrespect.
After taking a sip of wine, Ji Wushuang put down the glass and said, "How's it going?"
Diexiang said in a condensed voice: "Replying to Sir, the prince has promised Sun Hua to send people to fight with three of Sun Hua's men. If Sun Hua's men win two games, Sun Hua will be let go. But if the prince wins two games, Sun Hua will be let go.
Sun Ke went to death happily."
Ji Wushuang nodded and said, "Then who did Xiao Chen send?"
Diexiang thought for a moment, then said: "Scorpio Ouyang Xu, Black Armor Army Commander Xue Wuwei!"
"Two people?" Ji Wushuang said with a look of surprise on his face: "Didn't Sun Wei send three people? Why did Xiao Chen only send two people?"
Shaking his head, Diexiang said thoughtfully: "Maybe the prince thinks that Ouyang Xu and Xue Wuwei alone are enough to win those two battles!"
There was a look of thought in his eyes, and Ji Wushuang said thoughtfully: "Maybe, this kid is deliberately trying to let Sun Wei go."
Diexiang didn't say anything after hearing this. I don't know when it started. Diexiang suddenly realized that she couldn't see through Xiao Chen's thoughts. Of course, Diexiang also cared so much about what Xiao Chen was thinking.
With a helpless smile, Ji Wushuang murmured: "This boy always likes to do things that are kind to women. He thinks that in this way he can help Sun Wei, and maybe he can save someone who is not worthy of death.
But he doesn’t understand that with Bai Qi’s ruthlessness, he will never let Sun Wei leave Yangnancheng alive.”
After a pause, Ji Wushuang's eyes suddenly became fierce and said: "Sun Wei must die tonight, and he must die in Xiao Chen's hands. Since our Prince Xiao cannot make up his mind, let us help him.
.”
Diexiang was slightly startled when she heard this. Although she didn't know why Ji Wushuang had to kill Sun Wei, since it was the decision made by the man in front of her, she understood that there was nothing else she could do except comply with it.
"Sir, what should we do now?"
Picking up the wine glass, Ji Wushuang slowly stood up from the ground and poured the contents of the glass into his mouth. Ji Wushuang took out a firework from his arms and pulled the fuse. The next moment, a bright firework was accompanied by the harsh sound of the bird.
The sound rose into the night sky.
The silent night sky of Yangnancheng looked bright and beautiful under the embellishment of this fireworks.
Looking at the fireworks, Die Xiang was slightly absent-minded. At this moment, how could she not understand that Ji Wushuang had probably anticipated what would happen tonight and had already prepared for it from the first day he came to Yangnan.
It's really scary to be prepared with such calculation and scheming.
But then she thought about the name of the person in front of her, and Diexiang was completely relieved again. Yes, is there anything else in this world that Ji Wushuang can't figure out?
…
Outside the Yangnancheng Prefecture, on the street, tens of thousands of soldiers were divided into two groups. The leader of one side was naturally Bai Qi, Xiao Chen and Linghu Chu. The three of them were sitting on Linghu Chu's carriage. The curtains were raised, and inside the carriage A wine table was set up, with a pot of wine on the table. The aroma of wine overflowed, but the three of them tacitly agreed not to touch the glasses.
The only two Pegasus horses in the Wei Kingdom stood quietly on the side of the carriage. They were both the pride of horses. Both horses had their own tempers. They raised their heads and neither looked at the other.
On the other side, Sun Wei and Pang Ji were sitting on horses. In the open space in the middle, five men with deep breaths stood facing each other. Bai Qi got out of the carriage, glanced at Ouyang Xu among the five and said, "Get ready." Yet?"
Ouyang Xu turned his head and smiled slightly, without saying anything. He just flicked his long sleeves, and a three-foot green peak suddenly appeared in Ouyang Xu's hand.
At the same time, among the three people on the opposite side, a man holding a pair of hammers also took a step forward. Ouyang Xu was about to step forward, but was stopped by Xue Wuwei who was behind him.
"Hello……"
Ouyang Xu turned his head and looked at Xue Wuwei and said, "What? If you want to say something pretentious, I suggest you stop it."
Xue Wuwei smiled hoarsely, lightly hit Ouyang Xu's chest and said, "I just want to tell you that after this time, we will have an honest fight again."
Ouyang Xu smiled and suddenly joked: "Are you sure you are the one fighting me?"
Xue Wuwei recalled that when he and several first-level masters beat up Ouyang Xu, the upright man suddenly showed an awkward smile on his face, shook his head, and Xue Wuwei said: "That incident before was instigated by Fatty Wu Liang."
Ouyang Xu smiled slightly, shook his head and said, "It's not important anymore."
After saying this, Ouyang Xu walked out with a short sword in hand.
The battle happened faster than everyone imagined. Both of them were masters above the first-level True Self realm. The moment they fought, countless sparks burst out from their swords and hammers, and their momentum was as shocking as a lightning strike.
Xiao Chen couldn't understand the doorway, and he could only see two figures intersecting. He looked away, picked up the wine bottle and poured a glass by himself. In the final analysis, Xiao Chen didn't care at all about who lost and who won.
If Ouyang Xu loses, it will be nothing more than losing his life. This may be a relief for Ouyang Xu. As for Ouyang Xu, if he wins, it will only be the death of Sun Nuo. Xiao Chen never thinks that he is a saint. Whoever dies, as long as it has nothing to do with him, Xiao Chen can't care that much, and he doesn't want to care that much.
The battle in the darkness was still going on, but at this moment, a dazzling light suddenly came from the direction of Yangnan Prefecture. Xiao Chen narrowed his eyes, and a bad premonition suddenly arose in his heart.
At the same time, everyone also noticed this scene. In the carriage, Bai Qi and Ling Huchu rushed out of the carriage and looked in the direction of the Prefect's Mansion.
"This is……"
Following everyone's gaze, they saw a raging fire burning in the prefect's mansion. The fire illuminated most of the night, and the thick black smoke raged in the fire, and finally dissipated in the ink-like night sky.
On the horseback, Sun Nuo showed an angry look on his face, looked at Xiao Chen and Bai Qi suddenly, and asked angrily: "Why, Sun Nuo has already embraced the ambition to die, why do you have to force each other so hard?"
Bai Qi didn't speak, but glanced meaningfully at Xiao Chen beside him.
He can be sure that he did not order the burning of the Yangnan Prefecture, and the only one who would do this is Xiao Chen...
Although from the bottom of his heart he had no intention of letting Sun Yao go, Bai Qi couldn't help but be impressed by Xiao Chen's attempt to pull the plug. Although he agreed to Sun Yao deciding his life or death through a duel, as the saying goes, those who achieve great things don't stick to trivial matters. , sometimes, special things naturally require some special means.
Xiao Chen frowned. He actually wanted to know who started this fire, but what was certain was that after this fire, there was no way for the two parties to resolve the matter harmoniously.
"Whoosh!"
Pang Ji, who was beside Sun Wei, pulled out the long knife from his waist and said indignantly: "Sir, I think Bai Qi and the others are just delaying us. Since they don't respect benevolence, justice and morality, then we will fight them."
Sun Wei frowned, although there was still an angry look on his face, but after all, he did not have the heart to fight with Xiao Chen and other mermaids to death.
Seeing Sun Wei's hesitant look, Pang Ji's face turned pale, he suddenly raised his long sword and said:
"The Yangnan garrison obeys the order and all Wei soldiers will be killed without mercy."
Following Pang Ji's order, the Yangnan defenders present immediately went crazy, roaring like wild beasts and rushed towards the carriage where Bai Qi and others were.
Sun Wei originally wanted to stop him, but looking at the Yangnan infantry who had already rushed out, knowing that he had no way to save himself, he finally let out a long sigh. On the other side, he looked at the thousands of Yangnan soldiers rushing towards him. The defender, Bai Qi showed a sneer and disdain on his face.
"Just in time."
With a cold whisper, Bai Qi waved his hand gently. In an instant, behind Bai Qi, the black White Tiger Army rushed towards the Yangnan defenders like a flood.
A big war finally breaks out...
