Chapter 333: The joke is innocent

Views:

"The turmoil in the Duan Mansion is the best time for us to break out, isn't it?"

"Sister Yang, Sister Wen Yi, what are we waiting for?" Upon hearing that the Duan Mansion was in chaos, the sloppy girl immediately became excited. How could she miss such a good thing that she had been longing for

At this moment, she was so excited that even the two caterpillar-like snots under her nostrils were wagging happily. She immediately turned her head, looked at Yang Zhengjian and others, and called out.

Li Gufeng and others were immediately interested when they heard this. The internal strife in Duan Mansion was indeed the best opportunity for them to escape from danger.

Yang Zhengjian was even more decisive. Without saying a word, she immediately turned around and went into the house. In an instant, she carried Li Tianfu out.

Li Wenyi looked at Zhou Ran with some reluctance in her eyes, but she also knew that at this time, she must not let her senior brothers and junior sisters continue to suffer because of her. She just glared at Zhou Ran, went back to the house and carried Yi Jiangnan out.

Wenlan and Yangguang were equally quick. The two little girls, excited about being able to eat for free, quickly stepped forward to support Li Gufeng.

The actions of Long Hu and his group have made their intentions clear to everyone; they are obviously planning to take the opportunity to break out.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Jing Ming also took the opportunity to advise Zhu Li: "My dear, let's go too. If we wait until 'Duan Qiuqian' wakes up and gives him the opportunity to mobilize the army outside the city, we will be in danger."

"Duan Qiuqian?" Upon hearing this, Zhu Li turned to Jing Ming and said solemnly, "Where is he? I'm looking for him. Brother Jing Ming, please help me find him. Xiao Gulu and I haven't completed our goal yet. How can we just leave like that?"

No one expected that Zhu Li would give such a response at this time, which instantly shocked everyone; no one thought that this general with obvious mental disabilities would still have the leisure to persist in completing his goal.

Facing Zhu Li's insistence, Jing Ming and Wang Chong frowned at the same time. They only thought for a moment, and then they saw Wang Chong's eyes light up. He immediately bowed to Zhu Li and said, "Sir, according to the information obtained by me and Brother Jing, the internal strife in the Duan Mansion was caused by 'Duan Chief Qian', who used Zheng Maisi as a shield, causing Zheng Maisi to die on the spot."

"But as far as I know, it seems that only you and your group are uninvited guests in the Duan Mansion. Does that mean that you have killed Zheng Maisi?"

Wang Chong naturally had no idea of what happened in the courtyard, but there were obvious signs of a fight in the courtyard, which suddenly gave him an idea. As long as he could fool Zhu Li with some specious words, he could take their general away from here.

But he never expected that what he said hit the mark. The unlucky guy who was chopped to death by Zhu Li was none other than Zheng Maisi.

"Yes, the man the general just chopped to pieces was Zheng Maisi, the long-time praiser of Nanzhao. The general has won the battle and should retire after achieving success. Does the general want to fight to achieve his goal?" The sloppy young lady next to him, who had not yet moved, suddenly spoke up and confirmed for Jing Ming.

The sloppy girl was helpless as the situation of the Dragon, Swan and Eight Immortals was simply horrible.

Yang Zhengjian was carrying Li Tianfu on his back, and Li Wenyi was also carrying Yi Jiangnan on his back; the two young girls who were inexperienced in the world had to protect Li Gufeng who was seriously injured. If they hoped to fight their way out with them, the sloppy girl could not guarantee that they could all break out safely.

War is dangerous and swords are merciless, and this is not just talk; if one of them is injured, considering the relationship between Long Hu and his fellow apprentice brother and sister, both of them will probably suffer the consequences, this is obvious.

Therefore, for safety reasons, the sloppy girl must encourage Zhu Li and others to rush out with them, so that it will be safer.

Jing Ming and Wang Chong were loyal, brave and fierce generals at first glance; even without considering Zhou Ran and Zhu Li’s abilities, as long as this mentally ill general was willing to lead the way, they would be able to rest assured.

As long as she can rely on the help of Zhu Li and others, why wouldn't she, a sloppy girl, do it

"Huh? The person you just killed was Zheng Maisi?" Before Zhu Li responded, Zhou Ran, who had been low-key and silent, suddenly raised his head. His expression was as excited as if he had not woken up from a daydream.

In Zhu Li's view, 'Duan Qiuqian' and Zheng Maisi were the targets of his trip.

But in Zhou Ran's view, these two people were the ones who made contributions; when he heard that the person just killed by the general was Zheng Maisi, Zhou Ran immediately felt that his luck had come and the general's throne was beckoning to him.

Without waiting for Zhu Li's orders, Zhou Ran jumped down the steps in front of the wing room with a "whoosh"; he drew out the long knife from his waist with a "clang" and rushed towards the body that was split into two in the courtyard like a devil seeing a beautiful girl.

Zheng Maisi's head is the guarantee for his promotion. How can Zhou Ran not be excited

It is indeed not easy for grassroots to rise. Zhou Ran had to put his head on his belt to get the opportunity to chop off Zheng Maisi's head with his own hands. Can he be negligent

It has to be said that although Zheng Maisi, as the Great Jiuzan of Nanzhao, was powerful for a time, he was not very popular.

Historically, although Zheng Maisi eventually killed Yang Deng, seized the Nanzhao kingdom, and established the Great Changhe Empire, it did not last long before it was destroyed by later comers.

The same thing happened now. His head was chopped off by Zhu Li's knife, and there was no one to collect his body.

I really don't know whether his subordinates suddenly started an internal conflict because they wanted to avenge him or they had some other purpose.

Zhou Ran's actions made Jing Ming frown; he felt that Zhou Ran was really unreliable. At this time, shouldn't the three of them join hands and coax the general to leave

But this guy Zhou Ran actually wanted to chop off some heads to gain merit. If it were another situation, Jing Ming really wanted to hang him up and beat him up, but now was obviously not the time.

Zhou Ran's movements were very efficient. Moreover, he had prepared a cloth bag in advance. He soon came back carrying a cloth bag with a head in it, with a happy look on his face.

"General, uh, sir, the mission is accomplished. Let's call it a day and leave quickly." Now that Zheng Maisi's head was in his hands, Zhou Ran was obviously anxious to go back and claim the reward from Yuchi Jin. He didn't want to stay in such a dangerous place even for half a breath.

Upon hearing this, Zhu Li looked at Zhou Ran in surprise and said dissatisfiedly: "Little Gulu, don't we still have 'Duan Qiuqian'? How can we share the credit for killing Zheng Maisi?"

"Uh..." Zhou Ran was also stunned by Zhu Li's question, but in his heart, he was secretly complaining, General, don't you know that no matter how many people you kill, you don't have to share the credit

But on the surface, he obviously wouldn't say that. His small eyes rolled around, and he immediately said to Zhu Li in a heroic manner: "My dear, Zheng Maisi is a long-standing hero. Duan Qiuqian is nothing in front of Zheng Maisi, not even a drop in the ocean. Now that we have taken down the biggest target, why are we still worried about that little guy?"

"Besides, my dear, when we eat meat, we have to leave some soup for those who come later. As a human being, we should not be too greedy, don't you think so?"

In order to leave quickly, Zhou Ran started to talk nonsense in a serious manner. As long as he could make Zhu Li leave quickly, he could say anything.

Don't say that Zhu Li really fell for his words. After hearing what he said, he immediately nodded and said in agreement: "Well, what Xiao Gulu said is right."

"It's just like every time I eat candied haws, you always ask me to leave one for you to try. Eating candied haws together makes us good brothers, right?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Zhou Ran's originally serious expression immediately froze on his face. His eyes rolled around and he was speechless. He couldn't utter a word for a long time. What was going on

You have to know that Zhu Li is nineteen years old this year, and Zhou Ran is also nineteen years old. They are the same age and have similar appetites. They are both greedy and active.

When in Huichuan, Zhou Ran would go for a walk with Zhu Li every day. Zhu Li would buy him candied haws to eat, so he would naturally be a little greedy; however, all his money was prepared for Qi Miaoge, and he was reluctant to spend it.

After he felt greedy, he tried to trick Zhu Li into eating the candied haws. But Zhu Li exposed all his secrets with just one sentence.

As expected, as soon as Zhu Li said this, Jing Ming and Wang Chong, who were standing on both sides of Zhu Li like door gods, immediately cast malicious glances at Zhou Ran, secretly hating him in their hearts. This guy is so capable that he even dared to cheat the general for his candied haws.

Zhou Ran dared to fool Zhu Li because Zhu Li had a good temper and was mentally retarded, so he was easy to fool. But even if he had the courage, he would not dare to fool Wang Chong and Jing Ming. The malicious looks from the two made Zhou Ran almost wet his pants.

Therefore, he quickly changed the subject and said, "My dear, I think we'd better leave as soon as possible. While 'Duan Qiuqian' is unconscious and the Duan Mansion is in chaos, we can quickly send someone to deliver a message to General Geng, and then we will have made a great contribution."

"My dear, think about it. As long as General Geng seizes the opportunity to send troops, it will not be difficult to quickly capture Xielong City or even the entire Yongchang area. Is there any greater achievement than expanding the territory?"

This is what it means to defeat a master with random punches.

Zhou Ran's original intention of talking nonsense was to change the subject, but his words did not make the same sense to Jing Ming and Wang Chong. The two of them would obviously carefully consider the feasibility of doing so.

The two most authoritative people in the entire Xielong City are Zheng Maisi and "Duan Qiuqian". Now no one knows that this "Duan Qiuqian" is actually impersonated by Duan Wudao.

Now Zheng Maisi was chopped to death by Zhu Li's sword, and Duan Wudao was also defeated by Zhu Li's sword, seriously injured and unconscious. It can be said that Xielong City is now leaderless.

In addition, after Zheng Maisi's death, his subordinates had evil intentions and acted recklessly, which aggravated the instability of Xielong City. This timing was definitely the best time to take over Xielong City. After careful consideration, Jing Ming and Wang Chong came to this conclusion.

The two just looked at each other and nodded silently. Zhou Ran finally said something meaningful, but unfortunately this guy didn't know anything about it. He held Zheng Maisi's head like a treasure and refused to let go.
