"More than ten years ago, at a place outside the imperial capital, I saw a strange girl. At that time, she was the same age as me. Then, a huge poisonous scorpion suddenly appeared. At that time, all the adults took their children and fled in panic.”Chu Mingyue slowly talked about her past experiences.
"A strange girl and an extraordinary you. If this king's guess is correct, this is the beginning of a friendship!”Xia Wuyou couldn't help but laugh after hearing this.
"That's right. At that time, everyone else fled in panic. Although I also wanted to leave, when I saw this little girl happily walking towards the scorpion, I stopped and wanted to see if I could save her. At that time, I thought that this little girl would definitely be attacked by the scorpion, but it didn't. Not only did the scorpion not attack her, but after a confrontation, it even fawned over the girl like a little pet!”Chu Mingyue's eyes flashed with memories. There was a faint smile and a lack of coldness.
"Her name is Ji Caidie, and she's one of the five candidates to become the successor of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. I've been writing to her for the past ten years, so she's my only friend.”
Chu Mingyue was obviously different when she mentioned Ji Caidie. It was as if she was about to see an old friend she hadn't seen for many years, and she was filled with joy.
"Ji Caidie, this king is very curious about my beloved consort's friend, but I didn't expect that my beloved consort would have asked this friend of mine for help.”Xia Wuyou asked curiously.
"If it was wangye, would you be afraid?”Chu Mingyue asked.
"This King is naturally not afraid!" Xia Wuyou replied without thinking.
As soon as he said this, the two of them felt their hearts get closer.
"However, although Ji Caidie has come to help, she is only one of the five candidates for the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. She cannot represent the Ten Thousand Poison Sect. I don't think the Ten Thousand Poison Sect will take a liking to us. I believe Ji Caidie is helping my beloved concubine out of her own will.”Xia Wuyou gave Ji Caidie affirmation.
He knew very well that the disciples of the sects and families often had many scruples when they did things. The interests involved were all complicated. Ji Caidie probably received Chu Mingyue's request for help not long after leaving the Imperial City. At that time, they only had the old and crippled Martial King Mo Qingfeng. Almost everyone thought that they would die if they came to East County.
But Ji Caidie had rushed over to help Chu Mingyue. This was indeed a deep friendship.
"Wangye will know after seeing her!”Chu Mingyue said lightly and then left.
"Ji Caidie, from her name and Mingyue's attitude, she should be a beauty!”Xia Wuyou muttered before turning around and leaving the main hall.
Early the next morning, the entire county city was furious. News began to spread from unknown sources that the city had been sealed off and thousands of merchants had been killed. If they left the city now, they would only die.
This news first aroused the interest of the Merchant Union and the relatives of the deceased. They wanted to kill their way out of the city.
Under the influence of these people's emotions, their anger grew.
"Don't let me know who it is, or I'll make sure he dies without a burial place!”
"I will kill anyone who kills my friends and family!”
"The enemies outside the city must be eliminated. Otherwise, they will be our tomorrow!”
"Lord County Governor, please help us!”
At this moment, in the County Governor's Office, Bai Yuntian was constantly listening to the news from his servants. His eyes flashed with confidence. He had intentionally spread the news throughout the city to stir up the emotions of the citizens. He wanted them to stand on the same side as the East King's Mansion and oppose Ye Kuang.
"Brother Feifan and Wang Gu should also take action!”Bai Yuntian said calmly.
Chu Feifan and Wang Gu each led 10,000 soldiers to the east and west of the city.
"The bandits outside the city are rampant and have killed merchants of our county city. I am now under the orders of King Dong's mansion to go out of the city to kill the bandits!”Chu Feifan and Wang Gu's voices soon spread throughout the entire city. All of a sudden, all the people in the city were extremely excited. They had a deeper sense of belonging and recognition towards the East Mansion.
The officials who could make decisions for them were the officials they trusted and acknowledged.
Ye Kuang didn't know that his actions had caused Xia Wuyou to gather the hearts of the people. Gradually, the opposition between him and the East King's Mansion would soon become the opposition of the entire county city.
The 20,000-strong army left the city gates and headed into the distance.
"The army of the prefecture capital has moved out. Order everyone to hide in the forest and not clash with the army!”Ye Kuang's people had been watching the city. Seeing the army of the city move out, the leaders immediately ordered them to retreat. Once they entered the forest, it would be difficult for the army to spread out.
Chu Feifan led his army to a mountain forest. His eyes flickered as he looked at the dense forest and high mountains in front of him.
"Send scouts into the mountains. Once you find anything, send a signal immediately!”Chu Feifan ordered.
"Yes, General!" A small group of scouts moved and ran quickly towards the forest in front of them. As scouts, other than experience, their strength was not weak. Otherwise, they would only be food for others!
"Today's operation is just a test. It also has the effect of appeasing the people of the county capital. If we want to quickly eliminate the enemy, it will definitely not be possible in a day or two!”Chu Feifan thought to himself.
After waiting for a long time, a signal flew into the air. Chu Feifan's expression froze when he saw it.
"As expected, there are enemies here. There are hundreds of them, and this is only one of them. It seems that Ye Kuang has sent out a lot of people in secret. There are probably thousands of people, and this is only one of them.”
"The first brigade is moving out. Enter the mountain to kill the enemy!”Chu Fanfei ordered one of the 1,000-man teams to move out.
The sun set in the west. When evening came, the First Brigade finally completed their mission. They killed hundreds of enemies and brought their corpses back. However, they were also injured, with more than ten dead.
"General, these people are the elites of the army. We can basically confirm that they are Ye Kuang's elite soldiers!”The captain reported to Chu Feifan.
"Got it. Let's go back to the city!" Chu Feifan nodded, then brought the corpse to the county city.
On the other side, Wang Gu had also gained something. He also brought hundreds of enemy corpses back to the city.
Although it was very little to send out 20,000 soldiers to kill only 200 enemies, if they did not send out more troops, they would not be able to protect the army formation. They might even be attacked by an unknown number of enemies. That would be even worse.
