C164 Night Feast
Yun Fei spoke very quickly just now. He kept questioning Zhao Tong without giving Zhao Tong any time to catch his breath. Zhao Tong's speed was also adjusted very quickly by Yun Fei.
The two of them exchanged blows. Everyone was also dazzled and confused by what they heard. But the last thing they could confirm was that Zhao Tong was a spy! He wrote a letter to the enemy to leak the information. He had made the "special forces" fall into a trap and almost caused the entire Three Gorges Pass to fall into an irrecoverable situation.
Yih Qingchen, who originally used elegance as a symbol, could not hold it in anymore, because of Zhao Tong. He had almost suffered a catastrophe. If it wasn't for those Talisman, he would have already sacrificed his life for the country. He angrily rushed forward, grabbed Zhao Tong's collar and lifted him up. " Pah! Pah!" He forcefully slapped him a few times. "Why? Why did you betray me? Bah! You traitor!"
"After a few heavy punches, Zhao Tong, who had lost all his ability to resist, had his dantian destroyed by Yih Qingchen. He was now a cripple. He was tied up and brought to Chang'an for punishment.
Everyone could not help but feel lucky. Who would have thought that General Pingxi, who had been appointed by the Imperial Court and controlled all the soldiers in Liang Country, was actually a spy from Yu Dynasty?
This victory had come by luck. If not for Yun Fei, this seemingly impregnable Three Gorges Pass, which seemed to be under the protection of heaven, would have become so open and defenseless because of Zhao Tong's existence.
Actually, everyone, including Yun Fei, didn't know about Zhao Tong's identity. This Zhao Tong wasn't a spy of Yu Dynasty, but Zhou Tai's subordinate. His goal wasn't to break the city as soon as possible. Instead, he wanted the two dynasties to fight evenly, causing the two dynasties to lose even more military strength. Otherwise, in the ten or so days before Yun Fei arrived... Three Gorges Pass had already been breached.
"All generals, listen up! We will rest for a day. Tomorrow, we will send troops out of the Three Gorges Pass to reclaim the lost land of the Liang Country and seize the Tiger Pavilion Pass!" Zhong Weifeng ordered.
"Yes!" The voices of the generals shook the hall, and their morale was high.
"Report to the entire army. Each soldier will be rewarded with 10 gold, and every dead soldier will be compensated with 1,000 gold." As a minister in Liang Country, Zhong Weifeng still had the right to pay tens of millions of gold coins.
"Thank you, commander!" The voices of the generals were even louder.
At night, Yun Fei, Yih Qingchen, Zhong Xiu and Liang Xinyue gathered together and drank happily.
During the feast, Yih Qingchen also put down the shelf that he had been holding. He was no longer like the modest gentleman who sat like a bell and stood like a pine tree. He actually had his arms around Niu Ben and Zhong Xiu's shoulders. He did not care about his image as he ate and drank. This made Yun Fei's eyes drop a little.
The wound on Ni Hongyun's leg was healed by Yun Fei in the afternoon. In the past, she had been determined to cut off her emotional threads and seek the great path. She had almost never participated in such an occasion. Sitting there, she seemed a little shy. She still rolled her eyes at Hu Lang's entanglement, but she rarely scolded him harshly. Furthermore, his face, which had always been as cold as ice, had a red cloud flashing on it from time to time, making him look even more beautiful.
The most excited one was Hu Lang. He did not care about Ni Hongyun's punches and kicks. He leaned over to Ni Hongyun's side and picked up food and wine for her. He ignored her rolling her eyes and kept asking about the warmth and concern. It made Ni Hongyun's face turn red and she said hatefully, "Hu Lang, you haven't defeated Niu Ben yet."
"Then I will compete with him now!" Hu Lang turned around and shouted at Niu Ben, "Brother Niu, Brother Niu, let's compete now. If you win or lose, you will be my Brother Niu, how about it?"
Niu Ben, who was drinking with Yih Qingchen, heard someone calling him. He looked over and saw Hu Lang winking at him. Yun Fei whispered into his ear, "Old Bull, pretend to lose to Hu Lang once."
"Okay, come on. It's here. Hurry up and finish the fight. I still have to continue drinking." Niu Ben stood up and went to the empty space next to the table.
Hu Lang stood up and walked over while blinking at him. Niu Ben looked at Hu Lang with a bit of confusion and said, "Little Lang, what happened to your eyes? How can you fight when you blink?"
Everyone couldn't help but laugh, especially Zhong Xiu. He was shouting loudly, whistling, and making noise. Everyone knew why Hu Lang blinked, including Ni Hongyun.
Amidst the laughter, Hu Lang raised his fist and punched Niu Ben in the chest. Before his fist could reach him, Niu Ben fell to the ground and shouted, "I lost, I lost!"
Everyone burst into laughter once again. This Niu Ben must have done it on purpose, pretending to have lost. You should also pretend to be a bit more alike, like Hu Lang's fist that didn't have true essence astral energy. He had knocked down a Great Martial Master Peak before he could even reach him. Isn't this a bit too fake?
He was so angry. Hu Lang went up and gave him a few punches and kicks, but he was afraid that Niu Ben would get up and beat him up. He quickly ran back to the table and sat beside Ni Hongyun. He licked his face and said, "Sister Hongyun, now you can be my woman, right? I defeated Niu Ben."
Ni Hongyun, who was extremely ashamed and angry, subconsciously struck Hu Lang's chest with a backhand attack out of habit.
Hu Lang screamed and kicked hard with his feet. He flew back a few meters and hit the wall. He slid down the wall and kept moaning.
Ni Hongyun was stunned. "I broke through to the Martial Ancestor, and my attack was too heavy?" She was worried and confused. She quickly got up and walked to Hu Lang's side. "You, are you alright?"
"It hurts, it hurts so much." Hu Lang held his chest with both hands. He was still thinking about whether he should ruthlessly force the blood out of his mouth when Zhong Xiu's whistle sounded.
Ni Hongyun came back to her senses. She did not use any strength just now. This Hu Lang had been beaten up quite a lot in the Profound Heaven Sect. His ability to withstand blows was unmatched among the disciples of the Profound Heaven Sect's Outer Sect. Furthermore, he had already broken through to the Great Martial Master Peak, and his skin was' thick '. How could her casual palm strike injure him? With this thought in mind, he sent a kick towards ___, "Bad guy, rogue!"
Hu Lang stood up with a mischievous smile on his face, "I didn't expect Sister Hongyun to be so concerned about me." He raised his right hand and patted his chest. He said to Ni Hongyun with a serious face, "I, Hu Lang, swear to the heavens that from now on, I will protect you for the rest of my life! I will never betray you! If I let you down... I will not die a good death! If you die, I will not live alone! " His tone was firm and resolute.
Hu Lang was one of the "Four Great Geniuses" in Liang Country. Although he was known for his ruthlessness, he was open and upright, and his words were recognized by everyone.
Ni Hongyun, who was already panicking, was completely lost. She stood there at a loss, not knowing what to do.
Hu Lang reached out his hand and grabbed Ni Hongyun's white hand, "Sister Hongyun, let's eat and drink."
Ni Hongyun wanted to subconsciously break free from Hu Lang's hand, but she hesitated for a moment. She suddenly felt that the rough big hand was very warm and did not hate it that much. An inexplicable sweetness appeared in her heart and she did not struggle anymore. He followed Hu Lang to the table and sat down with a red face.
Niu Ben stared at Hu Lang, whose face was filled with happiness and happiness. He slammed the table and said, "Little Lang, Brother Niu is very interesting today, right? But what about you? In order to help you pick up girls, I was beaten to the ground by you on the orders of my boss. You didn't say thank me, and you even came up to kick me a few times. What is this called? Repaying kindness with ingratitude, forgetting justice when seeing profit, no, it's called forgetting your friends when you see lust. No, that's not right, it's more important to look at sex than friendship. "
