Back Off, Let Me Come

Qi Shan categorically rejected: "No!"

Shen Tang was stunned and asked, "Why not?"

She didn't expect that the Qishan Association would be the first to stand up and object.

Shen Tang thought his method was okay.

Although you can't pinch the rebels' weakness, you can pinch Zheng Qiao's weakness as well. As long as it can make Zheng Qiao and She Wang bite each other, both sides will suffer, or one of them will be annihilated! No matter how difficult the life of the people is, it is better to live under their hands.

Anyway, the situation is irreversible, so why not completely mess it up!

Qi Shan was speechless by her "innocent and simple" rhetorical question. He endured it again and again until his whole face turned red.

What should he say?

In the end, he could only hold back one sentence: "The national seal is of great importance!"

Shen Tang was depressed: "It's just spreading rumors. Just make Zheng Qiao believe that the national seal is in Xiaocheng. It's not true."

Qi Shandeng immediately showed a speechless expression.

What could he say? ? ?

Is it true that the national seal of Xin State is in Xiaocheng? ? ?

This is not about digging a hole for the rebel Zheng Qiao, but about digging a hole for herself, or taking the initiative to prepare a coffin and lie down in it to rest.

Qi Shan could only hint desperately: "If Zheng Qiao believed the rumors and really sent troops here, other forces in the territory would also take action. Then it would not be as simple as Zheng Qiao's brothers fighting against each other, but maybe a few or more than a dozen forces fighting... "

Shen Tang held his chin and thought.

"Yuanliang's words make sense."

Qi Shan thought that she had given up her mind and was about to secretly sigh in relief. Unexpectedly, he heard Shen Xiaolang Jun say something shocking in the middle of the sigh: "But - only when the water is muddy can you fish. If there is a fight between a few or more than a dozen groups, it will be worse." Is it a good thing?"

Qishan: "...you said it's a good thing?"

Shen Tang said: "It is indeed a good thing."

If she were to say what was the biggest impression Xiaocheng and his party gave her, it would probably be just now - she was truly aware of her own weakness and powerlessness. Because she has no power, no strength, no one, no voice, no backing, she can only be at the mercy of others in troubled times.

But what if she had?

As long as she wants to protect her, no one dares to touch her!

Strength is the foundation!

If you "reason" with Zheng Qiao, King She and his like, condemnation from the moral high ground won't hurt them even a hair!

Only with the power to threaten their lives and pinch their lifeblood will they listen carefully and reflect sincerely.

Shen Tang looked a little more unshakable and determined.

She said: "Wealth and honor should be found in danger."

Although she said this with a smile, Qi Shan could see that Shen Xiaolangjun was not joking, she was very, very serious!

Qi Shan opened his mouth, but couldn't say a word for a long time.

After waiting for a while and not getting a response, Shen Tang looked away, looked around again, and suggested: "Why don't we vote?"

Just as Zhai Le was about to express his stance, Qi Shan grabbed his hand.

The latter is incredibly powerful.

He whispered in confusion: "Mr. Qi???"

Qi Shan: "Zhai Xiaolangjun, please stop talking."

Shen Tang also noticed something strange about Qi Shan and looked over.

Qi Shan took a deep breath and tried hard to hide the distorted expression on his face: "Did Mr. Shen Xiaolang forget something?"

Shen Tang didn't understand what he meant: "What did I forget?"

She forgot a lot of things - such as the memory before time travel, but she couldn't say this, and Qi Bushan's expression obviously didn't refer to this memory. Shen Tang frowned and thought for a long time, but didn't expect that he had forgotten anything. He shook his head: "I didn't forget anything -"

Etc., etc--

She seems to have forgotten something important.

Shen Tang's expression changed suddenly.

Looking at the national seal of the Xin Kingdom, she forgot that she also had a "national seal" that she didn't know belonged to. Although she had no idea why she had the "National Seal" or where it was, the "National Seal" did indeed exist, and Lin Feng's ability to store the "spiritual energy of heaven and earth" in a woman's body was one of the ironclad proofs.

As a bound orange artifact that can only be dropped by death, the Seal's charm is undoubted. There are countless forces that covet it. If you don't operate it well, you may lose yourself.

Counting herself, Xiaocheng really has a national seal! ! !

Qishan saw that she remembered and couldn't laugh or cry.

What king would not carry something as important as the national seal with him? I wish I could take it out and wipe it three times a day. But Shen Xiaolangjun is different. He doesn't even remember that he has this thing.

Brother Zhai Huan and Captain Yang looked confused.

But this is their secret.

They did not take the initiative to confess, and it was not easy for them to pry.

Seeing the subtle changes in the expressions between Qishan and Shen Tang, Captain Yang knew that Shen Yishi's previous proposal of "leveraging others' strength" was not successful, and the hope that was ignited in his heart was extinguished again.

Unexpectedly, Shen Tang still insisted on his own opinion.

Her heartbeat was beating like a drum, she licked her dry lips and said, "Okay, I forgot about that thing, but it's not important. I feel like the method just now can still be tried, and it will definitely solve the crisis in Xiaocheng!"

"Youli, you-" Qi Shan was really anxious this time.

Shen Tang raised his hand to signal him not to say anything.

He asked rhetorically: "In addition to what I said, is there any more effective way at present? I know that whether it is Yuanliang or Wuhui, you are both famous scribes for a long time, and you must be more thoughtful about the situation than me. But you have to know - Qiao It’s hard for a woman to cook without rice! No matter how powerful the scholar is, no matter how tyrannical the warrior is, facing an army of tens of thousands, they can only suffer defeat."

Shen Tang tried to convince Qi Shan to take the risk.

"Our goal is to save the people in Xiaocheng! If we can borrow troops to save Xiaocheng, we will borrow them! The problem is that we can't borrow them now, and we don't know where to borrow them! Water far away cannot relieve fire nearby! We are short of people , lack of time, but Zheng Qiao is not short of time."

Qishan: "Even compensating yourself?"

Shen Tang: "If I am a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, I should stay far away now, take my people and my family with me and fly away. Anyway, the people in Xiaocheng have no blood relationship with me. They live and die with me. Shen You It doesn’t matter if the pear doesn’t cost a penny!”

Qishan: "..."

Shen Tang said: "Yuan Liang... I don't want to put the cart before the horse."

If it was just for self-protection, she could live in seclusion in the mountains alone, and she would not starve to death even if she did not produce, farm or work. Whether it was Zheng Qiao or King Pig, she couldn't see how they fought against each other, how they killed countless people, and what the people were like under their rule... She couldn't see it!

Since her original intention was to do her best to save the tragedy she saw, then it was worth taking some risks.

No?

Qishan: "..."

This was the first time I couldn't defeat Shen Tang.

A premonition told him that this wouldn't be the last time.

"It's too risky, Youli."

"Nothing in this world is without risk. If you are unlucky, your teeth will get clogged if you drink cold water, and you will choke to death if you eat a meal."

With good luck, justice comes from heaven, ten thousand against four hundred and twenty thousand!

Qishan could only sigh and shook his head with a smile.

"Okay, I'll do as you say."

Shen Tang's eyes suddenly lit up: "Seriously?"

She thought it would take a while.

Qishan said: "Wealth can be gained through danger, and taking risks is the right thing - I won't let you die in front of me anyway..."

Shen Tang smiled and cleared away the gloom, and teased: "It's amazing, Yuan Liang is quite flirtatious when he talks about people..." You must know that Qishan is really good at selling out his teammates, she was betrayed more than once!

If favorability could be digitized, she would have already raised the favorability value of this "guiding NPC" to over 90!

The three Captain Yangs who failed to join the group chat said: "..."

Shen Tang came back to his senses and realized that there were outsiders here. His expression was awkward for a moment, and he tried to pretend to be dumbfounded to get over what had just happened. Fortunately, none of the three got to the bottom of it.

Qi Shan diverted everyone's attention in an understatement: "It is true that Youli's method is good, but have you ever thought about how you are going to pass the news to Zheng Qiao? We don't have much time left."

Xiaocheng can't hold on for long. We must lead Zheng Qiao's troops over before Xiaocheng is finished, or there may be a glimmer of hope!

Otherwise, all planning is meaningless.

Shen Tang asked: "How do you usually send urgent military reports?"

After all, this is an unscientific world, and there is no shortage of unscientific means. It is impossible to just "honestly" rush eight hundred miles, right?

Zhai Le said: "Messenger, Wolf Smoke."

Shen Tang: "..."

Surprisingly honest.

If a messenger is to be sent, first of all, he must be strong enough to withstand the rush of traveling for days and nights, and secondly, he must have some identity, otherwise the news will not reach Zheng Qiao's ears. The only person present who met the requirements was Captain Yang, and everyone looked at him in unison.

Captain Yang was stunned for a moment before he reacted.

He said: "In that case, then it's up to me——"

Zhai Huan shook his head: "You can't."

The status conditions are met, but Captain Yang is the only tenth-level left-wing commander and the backbone and anchor of hundreds of soldiers. If he leaves, the already low morale of the soldiers will continue to decline and eventually turn into a pile of loose sand.

Neither their brothers nor Brother Shen could convince the public, and Captain Yang’s subordinate officers seemed unreliable...

Zhai Huan also expressed his worries: "Furthermore, even if Captain Yang goes, Zheng Qiao will definitely see him and trust him?"

People don't even pay attention to Sibao County.

Not to mention the warriors stationed in Sibao County.

The tenth-level Zuo Shu chief was not very attractive to Zheng Qiao.

Zhai Le: "What about using wolf smoke?"

Zhai Huan asked again: "Is Langyan so easy to borrow?"

Before the news can be spread through the smoke, it will expose itself first and trigger a full-scale siege by the rebels. This approach will not work.

Another deadlock.

When he was at a loss, Qi Shan said: "I have a way."

Everyone immediately focused their attention on him.

Qishan didn't say anything clearly, he just said: "We have to enter the city first."

Go into town and find someone!

Gong Shuwu!

The last hope may lie with him.

While Qishan and the others were discussing who would stay behind and who would enter the city, Chu Yao and Gong Shuwu went straight to the county government.

The governor of the county, Yan Cheng, fled, but the county government was not abandoned.

As soon as night falls, the lights are still brightly lit.

The rebels outside the city were besieging the city, but some people were still living as usual without being greatly affected. For example, Si Yan, who guards the gate of the county government. It was deserted in front of the door, and no one passed by for a long time.

He felt sleepy and yawned out of boredom.

Just as he was about to find a place to hang out for a while, he vaguely heard footsteps approaching, and the shadows of people blocked the candlelight reflected by the lantern.

Si Yan looked up and found that the visitors were two men. One person has gray hair and a slim figure, and is dressed in a very standard scribe's attire. The other person is tall, tall, and has tight muscles, like a practitioner.

Si Yan asked: "What are you doing here?"

Chu Yao: "Looking for someone."

Si Yan waved his hand politely: "There is no one you are looking for here. Don't get close here, otherwise you may lose your life."

Chu Yao didn't feel the slightest bit displeased at such an offense, and said with a smile: "I have a plan to defend the city and save my life, so I'll find someone to offer it to me. Little brother, do you think there is really no one I'm looking for in the house?"

When Si Yan heard this, his sleepiness suddenly disappeared.

He woke up with a start.

He said hurriedly: "Wait a minute - you said you wanted to offer some advice?"

Chu Yao: "Yes."

Si Yan was dubious and said, "Do you have proof? Don't think that the villain is making things difficult. It's really because the county has changed its owner. If you don't have real skills, you just want to fool people and seek some benefits. Once you step into this threshold, , my life is at risk."

The one who put them in couldn't do anything better.

Si Yan didn't dare to take risks.

Chu Yao smiled.

He took off the inscription monogram hanging from his waist and deliberately showed the rank on it. Si Yan from the county government also knew a few characters. When the four characters "Second Grade Shangzhong" came into view, it caused a huge visual impact on him, and he almost felt weak and could not stand on his feet.

he stammered, eager to grab his savior's hand.

"Two, please wait a moment. The villain will go in and pass the news."

He has seen many literary scholars.

But this is the first time in my life that I am "in the middle of the second grade"!

Gong Shuwu, who was about to take out the Wu Dan Tiger Talisman: "..."

He laughed and said, "It's still useful sir." Compared with the second-grade high-ranking doctor, the ninth-grade and fifth-grade doctor is more rare.

Chu Yao slowly hung the Wenxin monogram back.

He smiled and said, "Ordinary people don't understand."

The strength of a literary scholar does not depend on his grade.

"Second Grade, Upper Middle" will only fool laymen.

Gong Shuwu: "Sir, there is no need to be so humble."

Within a few words, he heard the sound of rapid and messy footsteps approaching them. Si Yan, who was just now, led the way and led out a young man with an extremely serious expression. The moment he saw the young man's appearance clearly, Gong Shuwu froze on the spot.

His eyes widened, and the hands hanging by his sides trembled and clenched involuntarily. Only in this way could he suppress the sudden burst of strong emotions. Naturally, these changes could not be hidden from Chu Yao: "Half a step?"

After shouting twice, he called Gong Shuwu back who was distracted.

"I, I'm fine..."

Gong Shuwu barely suppressed the strange feeling in his heart.

Fortunately, his vision was dim at this time, otherwise Chu Yao would have seen that Gong Shuwu's eyes were filled with mist and red threads, and his mood was very wrong. His eyes were all glued to the young man, for an instant, for fear that he would blink. In a blink of an eye, the boy disappeared.

nothing? ? ?

How could he be okay! ! !

He never dreamed that he would have the chance to see the Gong clan members, who were his close blood relatives! Yes, the young man walking quickly in front of me is the son of Brother Gong Shuwu——

Gong Cheng!

Gong Yunchi!

Gong Shuwu looked at Gong Cheng carefully.

He thought to himself: This kid Yunchi has lost a lot of weight.

When his eyes touched the tattoo on the young man's face that represented the exiled prisoners, his heartache became unbearable - Yunchi should have been the most dazzling and promising person of Gong's generation, but...

Unspeakable bitterness spread in my heart.

Gong Cheng, but no one showed up. The tall and brave martial artist in front of him was his second uncle Gong Wen, whom he cared about deeply. All his attention was focused on Chu Yao. When he heard Si Yan's reply, he was so shocked that he knocked over the tea and hurriedly came out without caring about anything else.

He slowed down his rapid breathing, calmed down his excitement, greeted Chu Yao and the other two, and then asked: "Which righteous man offered the idea?"

Chu Yao: "It's me."

1. More than 10,000 people versus more than 420,000 people, the battle of Kunyang, the ultimate fight between the son of the plane and the traveler.

PS: I don’t know if it’s because the Word document has more than 700 pages, and the coding and copying are stuck. I’m wondering whether to open a new document. Obviously the Queen's three or four thousand pages were fine at the time. Could it be that the computer has been in service for three or four years and needs to be replaced?
