Volume 4: The Game of the Gods Chapter 28 Who Ruffled the Spring Water?
In a mansion in Yonghui City, the girl in green was bored and made the Qiongqi, who looked like Mo Yi, pose in a variety of strange shapes. Finally, she got tired of it and let the poor Qiongqi rest in the corner. She held her cheeks with both hands, sighed, and finally couldn't help yelling: "G, do we really have to wait here for that General Mu to come back? I'm so bored, can you let me go out for a walk?"
Soon after being brought into Yonghui City by the red-haired general named Mu Feng, they parted ways. General Mu hurried to the Ruoye tribe's palace to report to Long Yu, but asked his soldiers to take everyone directly to this extremely remote courtyard, saying that they could rest here for a while. The words sounded nice, but in fact, they were put under house arrest in disguise.
Although it was house arrest, the guards at the door and the guards with only a few skills would not be able to stop Gong Lili and others. However, Wei Xingying did not seem to have any objection to this arrangement and accepted it calmly.
We have learned from the guards that the several waves of scouts sent out before have brought back different news. Some reported that they had spotted the Kongming army eight hundred miles to the west, while others said that there seemed to be a large army approaching in the northeast. There were many different reports and no one was sure.
Therefore, Mu Feng, the combat commander of the first battalion of the Dragon Wing Army, could not hold back any longer, and personally led a dozen guards to Gaoyangpo, hundreds of miles away, to conduct a reconnaissance. He insisted on seeing it with his own eyes. However, he did not expect to meet Gong Lili and others by accident on the way back.
According to the Ya soldier, the Kongming tribe's army has indeed arrived eight hundred miles away. It will take at most one day to reach Yonghui City, and at most two days at most. It seems that this war is really about to break out!
Wei Xingying also had his own plans in mind. The battle had not started yet, so it was not appropriate for the men on his side to act rashly. Since this was the place arranged by Mu Feng, keeping it secret would not be a problem. He was not worried that Mu Feng would betray him in front of Long Yu. Mu Feng was a very generous and righteous person. He would never go back on his word. Wei Xingying had promised him that he would wait for him here and give him a satisfactory explanation. He would keep his promise.
So, this place seems to be a good place to stay. More importantly, Wei Xingying has been wondering how his people should join the battle. This is a war, not a joke. There is no room for recklessness. Perhaps a wrong step will ruin the overall situation.
It's impossible to shamelessly report to Uncle Long Yu for orders when the war starts, right? Although he had already made such a worst-case scenario in his mind, Wei Xingying did not intend to choose this path unless it was absolutely necessary.
Meeting Mu Feng at this time was an opportunity that came to him. As the combat commander of the first battalion of the Dragon Wing Army, Mu Feng was definitely the main force in the war. You know, Mu Feng was almost a replica of Nangong Huang, and he was also a forward. Following him, not only would there be no worries about not having a fight, but you might even get an important job!
However, all of this is just Wei Xingying's beautiful plan now, and everything has to wait until Mu Feng comes back before they can make a long-term plan.
So, at this moment, Wei Xingying was sitting very calmly in the small courtyard, drinking tea, humming little tunes, and chatting with the Ye country woman Qingluan about some ulterior topics.
He has always been very interested in the disciple of the Holy Mother of Mount Li in Penglai Fairyland, because Penglai Fairyland has always been an extremely mysterious existence for the mortals of the Xuming Realm Continent. Wei Xingying had vaguely heard some of their legends because of his travels hundreds of years ago. Now that a living person has appeared by his side, how can he not be curious.
It's a pity that Qingluan didn't cooperate with him at all. She talked about this and that with him, but every time when it came to the key issues, she would casually avoid the subject.
Being interrupted abruptly by Gong Lili just now, he threw sentence to her: "Wandering? You saw it just now, there are people from the Longyi Army outside, where are you going to wander? But if you still want to be thrown out of Yonghui City by Uncle Longyu, you can go wandering."
Upon hearing this, Ping Lili fell silent. She rolled her eyes at him angrily and pouted. She knew that Wei Xingying was right, but she was unwilling to stay here obediently because she was always worried that Mo Yi might also be in this city. How could Ping Lili stay here peacefully?
Suddenly, her golden brown eyes rolled around and she saw Zeze, who was sitting alone on a chair in the corridor beside the courtyard, looking up at the sky. She curiously imitated him and looked up. The blue sky was boundless, without even a cloud. She didn't know what was so good about it that made Zeze look at it for a long time.
During these few days of getting along, she found that Zeze was really a very special child. He was taciturn, calm and reserved like an adult, but he did not have the innocence that he should have at his age. She really didn't know how he developed such a personality?
She had an idea, so she walked over and sat down next to him without any courtesy, then leaned over to his ear and whispered, "Hey, Zeze, how about we sneak out and have some fun?" Pinglili was very envious of Zeze's earth escape technique, as that was a great skill for robbing houses and wandering around!
It took Zeze a long while before he turned his gaze from the sky to Yinglili's face. He quickly glanced at Yinglili with his smart eyes, then turned his gaze back. The words that came out of his thin red lips almost made Yinglili's nose crooked: "There is no clause in our agreement that I accompany you for entertainment, right ?"
Listen! Is this human language? Such harsh words should come from a little boy who looks no more than 10 years old!
Ping Lili was so annoyed that her face turned green. She looked back and saw Wei Xingying's lips slightly raised with a mocking expression. She stamped her feet fiercely, turned around and walked away, spitting as she walked: "Humph, boring, you are all wooden and boring!"
As he spoke, he turned around angrily and prepared to walk out. Before he took a few steps, he suddenly collided heavily with a person who was coming towards him. Because of the height difference, Yinglili's face hit the other person's hard black iron armor on his chest.
There was a cry of "Ouch!", and when everyone looked over, they found that Gong Lili was holding his aching nose with one hand, pointing at the newcomer with the other hand, trembling, and said in a muffled voice: "You! You! Why are you so strong if you are fine! You almost knocked my nose off!"
The other party had his mouth slightly open at this moment, with an innocent expression that was difficult to explain. It was obvious that he was not able to react quickly enough to the evildoer who made the first move to accuse him.
It was clearly this woman who bumped into him head-on, what did it have to do with him?
The person who was framed innocently by Ying Lili was naturally Mu Feng, the combat commander of the first battalion of the Longyi Army who had brought everyone into the city. He had just reported to Long Yu and briefly described what he had seen and judged. Because he was still thinking about the explanation that Wei Xingying owed him, he hurriedly said goodbye to Long Yu and rushed here. He did not expect to run into such a thing as soon as he came in.
He looked at the fierce look of the girl in front of him, and suddenly remembered the way she fell from the sky and landed on his horse's back, and her pair of golden brown clear eyes. For no reason, he felt embarrassed and blushed...
Mu Feng had joined the army since he was a child and had fought on the battlefield for many years. He had hardly come into contact with women, and he had never heard of someone as lively and interesting as Ying Lili. This time, it was a coincidence, but it seemed like an encounter destined by God, which made him feel something strange.
However, he soon remembered the other party's identity, his face darkened, and his eyes suddenly dimmed.
Before, when he was outside the city, he had no time to think deeply about the identity of the woman in green. Later, on his way back after reporting to Long Yu, he suddenly remembered the rumors he had heard before. It was said that the prince was bewitched by a woman from the Shamo tribe and had even fought with others for her under the city wall.
Because he had been on standby in the military camp and rarely went in and out of the prince's palace, he had never seen the Shamo woman. Although he had heard those ridiculous rumors, he always laughed it off. Although he was curious about what kind of woman could make His Highness, who was not very interested in women, so nervous, it was only a slight curiosity. He never thought that he would have any intersection with the Shamo woman.
At least in his eyes.
The Ruoye tribe has always had beautiful women, but those women are beautiful, but they always seem to lack something. Is it spiritual energy? Or is it this fearless aura? The only one who had this aura before was the eldest princess Long Xin.
Thinking about it this way, this woman from the Shamo tribe is actually somewhat similar to the eldest princess.
But I didn't expect that she was his highness's person.
If that's the case... He collected his thoughts slightly and quickly suppressed the inexplicable strange feeling in his heart.
Just at this moment, Wei Xingying also saw him, stood up and walked towards him hurriedly.
"Xingying, you should give me a reasonable explanation now, right?" Mu Feng remembered something more important. He quickly put away the inappropriate emotions in his heart and walked over with a sullen face.
"Then you must promise me first that if you want to fight against the Kongming Clan in the future, you will find a better job for me!" Wei Xingying was very rude and asked Mu Feng for a job right away.
