Sealing Sword

Killing intent is cooler than water, and the night is as cold as ice.

There were repeated sounds from inside the big tent, as if something had been overturned, but the soldiers guarding outside did not move and did not dare to enter without permission.

This is the tent of the chief general Sa Luoyan, the inside is full of mess as if a strong wind passed through, but he blocked Amanda with one hand, retreated behind the table with a smile, and let others continue to vent their anger.

After retiring from the army and returning to the camp, Seridan released Ye Fusheng from the shackles, and the latter fought him as expected, and after several rounds, the two distanced themselves and began to lose their temper.

After Seridan quit the battle circle, he stood on the sidelines, and his strange-colored mandarin duck eyes rarely flashed a trace of pity - ten years of life and death, in exchange for a total veto, even the mud bodhisattva would be complacent.

Based on the information from the detailed work, he has made quite detailed guesses about "Chu Yao". The matter of King Jing is undoubtedly the opponent's pain point. Be suspicious.

After all, he is a child of the Tian family, and his arrogance is still there. Even if he bears the burden of humiliation, it is impossible to compromise.

However, this pity was only for a moment, and it was forgotten by Seridan. He clearly knew that this man was a strong man, and he didn't need such useless things.

Ye Fusheng was injured after all, after a fight with Seridan, he was very sad and furious again, he was furious for a while, the blood on his face flashed and then faded away, his lips were already bright red.

"Yonglehou, it's not helpful for you to be too angry." Sa Luoyan finally spoke, staring at Ye Fusheng's back trembling slightly because of anger, and a trace of color flashed in his eyes very quickly.

Ye Fusheng stood among the overturned tables and chairs, and turned around with a sneer when he heard the words: "Lu Wei has denied everything, what else can I do?"

When he said the last word, water flashed in the corner of his eyes, and he held back the next moment, refusing to show his weakness at all.

Sa Luoyan saw it very clearly, and said with a light smile, "It's impossible to do it alone, but isn't there us in Yonglehou?"

"Heh, people who are not of my race must have different hearts." Ye Fusheng sneered, "You were the ones who arrested me, and you were the ones who pushed me to this point. How can I trust you alien thieves who intend to commit crimes?"

Amanda quickly said: "We can't be trusted, do you people in Dachu believe you?"

Ye Fusheng's face immediately turned ugly as if someone had stabbed him three times and six times.

"Amanda, don't talk nonsense." Sa Luoyan reprimanded lightly, but without much censure, "Yonglehou, we are indeed untrustworthy, but right now you are safer staying here than returning to Dachu. We let you go back to Yanming City, in order to protect the emperor's reputation and avoid Xichuan mutiny, Lu Wei will also be eager to deal with you secretly, you must know this better than us."

Ye Fusheng clenched his left hand into a fist, his nails were deeply inserted, and four half-moon-shaped openings were dug out in the palm.

After a while, he said in a hoarse voice: "I am the royal family of Great Chu. When I was born, I stood on the frontier, and after I die, I will be buried in the country."

Seridan shook his head and couldn't help sighing.

He does not agree with "Chu Yao"'s persistence, but appreciates the other party's integrity. However, Seridan understands Sa Luoyan's personality too well. This person will use any means to achieve his goals. As long as "Chu Yao" is alive for a day, he will definitely not feel better It will be squeezed out of the final use value.

Thinking of this, Seridan said: "If Marquis Yongle is willing, you can go back to Jiuyao City with me after this battle. Although there is no way to march and enter politics, you can always live and work in peace and contentment."

As soon as Amanda's expression changed, she opened her mouth to yell and curse, but she still didn't dare.Sa Luoyan frowned, and glanced at Ye Fusheng inexplicably, and found that the latter was also quite surprised, then came back to his senses, and said disdainfully: "Thank you for your kindness, keep it for my dog."

Seridan has nothing to say, as an enemy who stands on the opposite side, he has done his utmost benevolence, just like the saying in the Central Plains, "It's hard to persuade a damned ghost".

Sa Luoyan said at the right time: "Wolf head, a scout sent a message early this morning. Kaino should be back soon. The situation is urgent now. Please go and meet him to avoid any trouble."

As one of the "Wolf Kings", Kaino was able to lead his troops across the "Ghost Crying Creek" and cooperate with that lunatic Helian Yu. Now that he has returned from victory, he is not far away, so why does he need the majestic wolf leader to meet him in person?Seridan knew that what he said just now aroused Sa Luoyan's suspicion, but he had no intention of defending anything, and he didn't want to stay and watch the hero's pride be broken, so he simply took advantage of the slope and said: "Take orders!"

After saying this, he walked away without showing any face to Sa Luoyan, and only looked back at Ye Fusheng the moment he was about to leave.

With this glance, I happened to see a slightly invisible crack under Ye Fusheng's lip, as if a slit had been broken in the drawing paper on which the jade case was laid out, revealing a suitable color underneath.Seridan was stunned for a moment, and wanted to see clearly again, but Ye Fusheng raised his hand to wipe off the blood on the corner of his lips. When he put his fingers down, there was only a little faint redness left under his lips, but the cracks were no longer visible.

Are you dazzled?Seridan frowned, but his hesitation made Sa Luoyan even more displeased, and his voice turned deep: "Langtou, is there anything else?"

"It's nothing, I was dazzled for a while." He took another look, but couldn't find any clues, so he put down the curtain and walked away.

When the neighing of the horse came from outside, followed by the horse's hooves stepping away, it was probably Seridan who led the people out of the camp, Ye Fusheng finally heaved a sigh of relief, and turned to face Sa Luoyan and Amanda.

"What the wolf head said just now is also the convenience I want to give to Lord Hou, but if Lord Hou can refuse him, he probably won't take my words to heart." Sa Luoyan paced in front of Ye Fusheng, unarmed and seriously injured In his eyes, the martial artist is like a tiger whose teeth have been pulled out, not to mention that Amanda is still there, the guards outside the tent are still there, and even he himself is not a fat-headed waste.

Ye Fusheng said expressionlessly: "I'm used to being a man-eating tiger, how can I live a life as a house cat?"

Sa Luoyan smiled and said: "Cats will be played with by others, and tigers will also be domesticated. In the final analysis, only the master and king can stand and survive."

"Is this why you attacked Dachu?" Ye Fusheng looked at him, "You pay tribute every year and come to court every year. If you don't want to be subjects, you have to compete with gold and iron horses? Ambition is a good thing." things, but if the ability is not enough, it will become a disaster.”

"For you people from the Central Plains...the success of the king and the defeat of the bandit are nothing more than the same." After a pause, Sa Luoyan raised the corner of his mouth, "If King Jing had succeeded back then, Marquis Yongle shouldn't be in such a state now. Even... you are already the crown prince, one person is below ten thousand people."

Ye Fusheng grabbed his throat violently, the next moment the sun wheel was inserted between the two, firmly pressed on Ye Fusheng's left hand, Amanda said sharply: "Let go!"

"Amanda, don't make a fuss." Sa Luoyan smiled, pushed away the sun wheel with one hand, and held Ye Fusheng's left wrist with the other, seemingly lightly but with great force, seeing the other's face turn pale with satisfaction.

"Great Chu is to you now, like a trap to prey. Yonglehou is a smart man, so he naturally knows the principle of 'being wise and protecting one's life'." Sa Luoyan pressed Ye Fusheng on the chair without rejection, his gaze was like a torch, "Everyone in the Central Plains Saying 'the body and skin are the parents', even if Marquis Yongle doesn't cherish his own body, he should take care of himself when he thinks about Prince Jing and his wife."

Ye Fusheng's eyes turned cold: "You are threatening me!"

Sa Luoyan shook his head and said, "I just want to negotiate a deal with Lord Hou."

"what?"

"Although we are ambitious, we also know the reason why our appetite is too small to survive. Big Chu is not a bone we can eat whole, so..." Sa Luoyan lowered his head and met his eyes, "What we want, It's Nishikawa."

Xichuan is mountainous, although it does not have the fertile soil in the South and the Dongling sea area, it has innumerable mountain forest resources, and it is densely populated, very close to the Western Regions.If they can win Xichuan, it will be like opening a unique door, choking the main roads of both parties. From then on, no matter whether it is the caravans of the Great Chu or other countries in the Western Regions, they will have to pass under the eyes of An Le and Rong Mo. What's the difference between the tiger's mouth and excuse?

How can you allow others to sleep soundly on the side of the couch?

Murderous intent flashed in Ye Fusheng's heart, and his face showed just the right coldness: "Xichuan has a vast territory and a large population. Taking this place is like taking down a treasure house. If you take a step further, you can invade the central capital, and if you take a step back, you can defend the border town. You really have a good idea."

"As Lord Hou said just now, 'people who are not of our race will have different hearts', even if we take down Xichuan, we will definitely encounter repeated resistance. This is a root problem that even massacring the city can't solve." Sa Luoyan stepped back. One step, "Instead of massacres, it is better to rule the people of Chu with the king of Chu. The Jingwang party has commanded Xichuan for many years. You are their young master. No one is more suitable to be the master of Xichuan than you."

Ye Fusheng tightened his five fingers and paused every word: "You want to support me as a puppet!"

"Whether you are a puppet or not depends on your ability, we just take what we need." Sa Luoyan's voice was full of temptation, "Think about your father's loyal subordinates being treated coldly in this remote place for ten years, Think about your ten years being wiped out with one word. Don’t you want to seek justice for them and yourself? After three days, you will forcefully attack the city, and both sides will suffer heavy casualties. I don’t know how many people there are, and it’s up to you to think about whether people will be devastated or everyone will be happy.”

Ye Fusheng was silent for a long time, Sa Luoyan also waited patiently, Amanda remained silent, but held the sun wheel tightly in his hand.

"...get my knife."

When the moon outside was in mid-heaven, Ye Fusheng's body trembled suddenly, he covered his lips with his hands and coughed violently, as if he had aged ten years, leaving only a layer of fake skin inside.

Sa Luoyan raised his eyebrows: "Huh?"

"Before I left, I made an agreement with my confidant to use the knife seal as evidence. Without this, any letter would be unreliable." Ye Fusheng raised his head, "If you are willing to follow me, if you see the letter, you will be able to take advantage of it. If you are not willing Yes, I have nothing to say."

After a pause, he stared at Sa Luoyan: "I don't believe your promise, but now I have no choice... I, as long as you promise, I will not indiscriminately kill innocent people or harm my generals on the day of breaking the barrier, otherwise I will die today." As much convenience as it can give you, it will give you as much trouble in the future, if you do what you say, you will never stop until you die!"

Sa Luoyan laughed loudly: "It's a promise, and the blood book is the proof! Amanda, take the knife for Lord Hou!"

Amanda stared at Ye Fusheng, the pain of broken arm was still there, she wished to chop him into meat, but she also knew that the big event was about to happen and she couldn't act rashly, so she could only swallow her anger and say: "Yes!"

She went out of the big tent, Ye Fusheng didn't talk nonsense, spread out a pen and paper to write a letter, Sa Luoyan looked over every word and made sure it was correct, so he was relieved.

Amanda quickly retrieved the water-breaking knife. Ye Fusheng just finished writing the first letter. He took the long knife and slashed it across his fingertips. A bright red water mark.

At this moment, a loud noise suddenly came from not far away, as if a fire and thunder had exploded, and the whistling of the wind was mixed with faint clamor.The foreign soldiers guarding outside the tent were all startled, and hurriedly looked up, only to see that the rear was smeared with red flames, as if there was a raging fire!

Amanda rushed out to take a closer look, her pupils constricted: "That direction... bad!"

That is the Grain and Grass Camp!

When marching and fighting, food and grass go first, not to mention that they have traveled so far here, and they didn't bring much food and grass. The original plan was that if they couldn't attack the city in seven days, they would have to retreat to Jiuyao City to seek supplies, but they didn't expect something to go wrong at this time!

Amanda sent people to rush to put out the fire, and at the same time, she was thinking quickly in her mind. Why would there be an accident with the food and grass even though there were heavy guards guarding it?

Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind, before she had time to say a few words, she turned around and rushed back to the coach's tent.

However, she came a step late.

A headless corpse fell to the ground, and the familiar clothes made her terrified.

The blood flowed down the knife, leaving a bright red line on the ground, Ye Fusheng held a bloody head in his hand, his pale face was splashed with blood, more terrifying than evil spirits.

Seeing Amanda coming in, he only gave a sneer, and swung his knife to split open the big tent. The guards outside were caught off guard. First, they were covered by the lifted curtain, and then the blade pierced into the flesh, and dust fell down.

"Stop going!" Amanda finally came back to her senses, and the sun wheel slashed out, but she didn't expect that the other party would still have the energy to perform lightness kung fu after the murder, so she missed this blow.

Only then did the guards outside realize the sudden change in the tent, and they rushed in one after another. Amanda's eyes shattered, and he said angrily, "Trash! Chase me quickly and shoot arrows! I'm going to chop him into mincemeat!"

Looking at the mess and the headless corpse, Amanda was angry and afraid. Before the war started, the commander was dead, and the food and grass were burned. After all, she was duty-bound as a half-manager. ...

etc!She suddenly grabbed the last soldier who was about to leave, and shouted: "Light up the signal fireworks! Urgently call the wolf head back to camp!"

"Yes!"

The two left one after the other, and after the big tent was empty, a person slowly climbed up from the mess of overturned tables and desks, it was Deng Sixun.

He glanced at the corpse on the ground, but turned around and dragged out an unconscious person from the collapsed tent, it turned out to be Sa Luoyan, who was supposed to be decapitated elsewhere.

Ye Fusheng said, "Treat the body according to the way of the person", the living Sa Luoyan is more useful than the dead, after all, after his death, the alien race may fight to the death, but his life is the bargaining chip that can make the opponent throw the mouse.

They agreed to use "take the knife" as a signal, so after Deng Sixun saw Amanda holding the knife into the account, he appeared near the big tent by accident. When the food caught fire and Amanda left in a hurry, he immediately The foreign soldiers who reported the letter were included in the account together, which is justified.

Surprised by the upheaval in the camp, Sa Luoyan was furious on the spot, he was confused, and Ye Fusheng, who had been preparing for a long time, finally took the opportunity to make a move.

The water-cutting knife fell on the head, and Sa Luoyan was so shocked that he had no time to shout, so he dodged in embarrassment. However, the knife was only a sway, and after the wrong hand, he turned sharply and cut off the soldier's head with one knife. Deng Sixun's hand.

He was good at acupuncture at odd points, and he was even more good at using poison. When he pierced the large point on the back of his neck with a needle, Sa Luoyan fainted on the ground unwillingly without saying a word.

Immediately afterwards, Deng Sixun exchanged his clothes with that of the soldier, put a mask on his face and threw it aside, and hid himself. This is the most dangerous and safest way.

Even if Amanda sensed something wrong, she would be preconceived, and Ye Fusheng used himself to draw her attention away, at least it would give Deng Sixun a chance.

Deng Sixun made a cut on Sa Luoyan's body, blood flowed all over his legs immediately, but he didn't wake up from the pain due to the effect of the medicine, he dragged the wounded soldier to the direction of the wounded barracks among the hurriedly walking soldiers, no one Give them a second look.

No one knows that after this unremarkable dumb military doctor scrambled and crawled out of their sight, he became as light as a swallow, grabbing a grown man without any effort, just like holding a chicken, Disappeared in the chaotic night in a blink of an eye.
