Ten minutes later, the Japanese army stopped 300 meters away from the entrance of the sky.
Watanabe Junichi reined in his horse and looked around. It didn't matter if he didn't look, but he couldn't help but gasp.
Lai San didn't threaten him. The terrain here was indeed extremely steep.
Watanabe Junichi saw that the originally narrow mountain road was close to a tall cliff on one side and a cliff that was dozens of meters deep on the other. At the entrance of the One-Line-Sky, two watchtowers that were more than ten meters tall stood on both sides.
The watchtowers were built against the mountain, made of bluestone, and looked exceptionally sturdy. On each watchtower was a light machine gun, aimed at the entrance of the canyon like a tiger watching its prey. Once the two machine guns were fired, the attacking side would have to pay a huge price.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?"
Watanabe was watching when he heard someone ask upstairs.
"Taijun, they asked us what we are here for? What do we say?"
Lai San ran over and asked Watanabe.
"Just as we discussed yesterday, we'll say that we're here to visit Patriarch Li.”
"Yes."
Lai Sanling agreed and walked forward.
"Stop, don't go any further. If you don't listen, we'll shoot.”
Seeing Lai San getting closer and closer to the watchtower, the people on top gave a warning.
Lai San stopped in his tracks and said,""Listen up, this is our Great Japan Imperial Army's Senior Officer Watanabe Junichi. I've long heard that your chief is a noble warrior in Yuling, so I've come to pay you a visit today.”
"Alright, I'll report it now. You guys stand where you are and wait. Don't move forward, or don't blame the bullets for not having eyes.”
Lai San quickly took a few steps back. This kid was smarter than a monkey. He was not willing to die in vain.
The people on top only said that they were going to report, but no one came out of the watchtower. The sound of a flute like a bird's cry came from inside. Soon, the echo of the flute came from inside the valley.
The sound of the leaf flute rose and fell, gradually spreading into the distance...
After about twenty minutes, the sound of galloping horses came from the canyon.
Before long, four or five horses rushed out of the valley. Not far from the Japanese army, the people came to reins.
One of them was a middle-aged man in his forties. His clothes were obviously more luxurious than the others. He seemed to be the leader.
He held the reins in his hand and took a few steps forward. He asked,"Who wants to see our master?"
Lai San quickly stepped forward and answered,"It's our Captain Watanabe. I've long heard of your master's great name, so I'm here today to pay you a visit."”
"Lai San? Well done, you've grown up and mingled with the Japanese.”
The man glanced at Lai San and said disdainfully.
"What, you know me? May I ask who you are?"
"I am the butler of the Li family. My name is Yun Fei. Your name is notorious, and everyone in Yuling knows you. How can I not know you?”
Lai San's face turned red after being ridiculed by Yun Fei, and his heart was filled with anger. However, he did not dare to flare up. He was afraid that if he ruined Watanabe's plan, he would definitely chop himself up.
"Ah, hehe. So it's Butler Yun. I've heard a lot about you. It's my honor to meet you.”
Although Lai San said that, he was cursing in his heart."F * ck, isn't he just a butler? What are you so f * cking awesome for!”
Yun Fei didn't care what Lai San thought. He said,""Who wants to see our master? Let him come forward and speak.”
Watanabe, who was behind, saw Yun Fei's arrogant appearance and cursed in his heart,"Eight squares! How dare a small butler be so rude? I'll definitely make you die in the future!”However, for the sake of the treasure that he dreamed of, he decided to endure it.
Watanabe suppressed his anger and lightly lifted the reins of his horse to stand in front of Yun Fei.
"Greetings, Great Housekeeper Yun. I have long admired the great reputation of Patriarch Li and have specially come to visit today.”
Watanabe forced a smile.
Yun Fei looked at Watanabe Junichi and a trace of anger flashed across his face. He said coldly to Watanabe,""I accept your kindness on behalf of our master. My master said that he doesn't see any guests recently, especially strangers. Please go back!”
Watanabe didn't expect his hot face to be stuck on a cold fart. His expression changed immediately and he said with a warm and angry face,"China is a country of etiquette. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for you to treat visiting guests like this!”
"Humph! What hospitality? Whether you come or not is your business, and whether you want to see him or not is our master's business. Besides, you're just paying a visit, but you don't have to ask what you're thinking. Just look at the soldiers behind you.”
Yun Fei sneered.
"Oh, so you're here for this. It's not safe everywhere now. I'm afraid that there will be any danger on the road. They're here to protect me.”
Watanabe tried his best to quibble and make a final effort.
"Haha, what a joke. You still need protection? If it weren't for you guys, we wouldn't be in so much danger.”
Watanabe Junichi was so angry that his face was like a rotten eggplant. However, he held back his anger and didn't know what to say.
Just as Watanabe was feeling extremely awkward, one of his subordinates, the captain named Yamaki, couldn't take it anymore. He stood up and said,"You Chinese pigs, we treat you with courtesy, but you don't know what's good for you. Colonel, don't waste your breath on them. I'll bring my men to destroy them.”
"Hahaha! You really don't know what's good for you. Do you think we're afraid of you? Come and try if you have the ability! Let's see who's going to destroy who!"
After Yun Fei finished speaking, he shouted at the penthouse,"Old Master has ordered that anyone who dares to intrude will be killed without mercy!”
After Yun Fei finished his instructions, he turned to Watanabe and said,"Captain Watanabe, if you know what's good for you, you should hurry back. If you want to force your way into the Celestial Confining Valley, I won't stop you. But let me remind you that there are traps and traps everywhere. If you hurt your people, don't blame us. Alright, I won't accompany you anymore!"
After Yun Fei finished speaking, he whipped his horse and the horses left.
Looking at the arrogant Yun Fei, Watanabe's subordinates couldn't hold it in any longer and requested to fight.
Watanabe Junichi was also furious. He had never been humiliated like this since he joined the war in China. Seeing his subordinates rubbing their fists, if he still did not agree to start the war, the morale of his soldiers would definitely suffer a serious blow.
Watanabe drew his sword and ordered his officers,""Artillery, prepare to bombard the sky. Also, inform Fujino immediately and tell him to get here as fast as possible. I want blood from the Immortal-trapping Valley!”
