Chapter 190: To praise or not to praise
"What if not?"
Nanmen narrowed his eyes, "Otherwise, between you and me, only one can survive!"
Xiao Jin sneered, and the dagger in his hand flew out again.
Nanmen did not dare to be distracted any longer, and responded with all his heart. If he was fighting alone, he would not be Xiao Jin's opponent at all. His sharp weapon was the arrow.
Nanmen turned around and ran, he jumped up to the tree like a monkey, and after finding the best position, he quickly pulled out the arrow behind him and shot at Xiao Jin.
There was a "chick", and the arrow hit the target.
But before he was happy, he took a closer look and found that the one shot just now was not Xiao Jin at all, but a tree!
Before Nanmen came back to his senses, a chill suddenly felt down his spine. When he turned his head, the short knife in Xiao Jin's hand had been lying across his neck at some point.
"You! Huh!"
Before Nanmen could speak, his throat was cut by Xiao Jin. His staring eyes seemed to indicate that he would not rest in peace.
Perhaps he didn't expect Xiao Jin to kill him so simply and neatly.
The corpse fell from the tree, and Xiao Jin jumped down, wiped the blood from the dagger on his body, and then returned to Tiger Camp for them to dispose of the corpse.
Nanmen will come here, probably because the two people they solved before, and now Nanmen is dead, even if Nanguo knows that there may be a mystery in the northern wilderness, I am afraid that they will not easily send people here again. After all, for many people in these countries, the Northern Wilderness is full of weirdness and unknowns, and everyone will be afraid of unknown things.
"Master, Second Master Qiao and Chief Mengyu have also returned from selling charcoal, but Chief Mengyu was seriously injured." No. 5 told Xiao Jin about the previous situation.
Xiao Jinjian frowned, "Take care, I'll go and have a look."
"yes."
When Xiao Jin arrived at the Tiger Camp, the sky had already turned pale, and the Tiger Camp had already got up and just walked out when he saw Xiao Jin walking in.
"Why did brother Xiao come here so early?"
"I heard that the head of the North District was injured, so I'll come over and have a look."
"The injury has been treated, there is no major problem, I will take you there." Huwei took Xiao Jin to the outside of Mengzi's house, and after confirming that Mengzi had woken up, he opened the door and walked in.
Actually, Mengzi didn’t sleep all the time, mainly because the wound was so painful that he couldn’t sleep at all.
"Why did brother Xiao come here?" Mengzi's complexion looked bad because of his injury and poor rest.
Xiao Jin glanced at the Broken Arrow that was taken out beside him, his brows sank, "Is it an arrow wound?"
"Yes, the opponent's arrows are too strong, and it is really hard to resist."
Xiao Jin looked at Mengzi with deep eyes, "Even if a general master is prepared, he can't escape his sword alive. Uncle Meng's skill is not low."
Hu Wei was surprised, "What is the background of this person?"
"The number one archer in the Southern Kingdom, but now he has gone to the Palace of the King of Hades to report."
"What?"
Both Huwei and Mengzi were shocked.
Xiao Jin said with the same expression on his face: "Just now he wanted to force his way into the formation, but I have already killed him."
The two were silent, thinking that the man was a king, but it turned out that the king was right in front of their eyes. Do they want to praise it or not?
"If there is any abnormality in the wound, send someone to find Su Ying." After Xiao Jin left a sentence, he turned and left.
Mengzi looked at Xiao Jin's back and shook his head, "After all, he was a prominent killing god, and he really deserves his reputation."
Huwei thinks so.
As Xiao Jin said, the masters sent by Nanguo Yi never returned, which made them fearful, and even felt that this might be a trap set by Chu State to kill their masters.
So the officials who were going to negotiate a peace with the Chu State sent a letter to Xiao Jue directly, not to negotiate a peace, but did not say whether to fight or not.
When the news reached Xiao Jue, Xiao Jue was sending people to investigate who was attacking the southern border before, but his people could not find the existence of that team even after searching all over.
"A bunch of useless trash, what the **** is this king raising you for?" His wound still hurts so much that he can't sleep, but they not only failed to find Su Ying's whereabouts, but now there is a mistake in the peace negotiation, How did this make him go back and explain to the emperor?
"My lord is not well. I just sent a letter from the Southern Kingdom to say that I will no longer negotiate peace with the Chu Kingdom."
"What did you say!" Xiao Jue stood up from the bed at once, just touching the wound on his body so that he yelled loudly.
"My king has already explained to them what happened before. It is clear that someone wants to provoke the relationship between the two countries. Those idiots in the southern country don't believe my king's words! Continue to send letters to the southern country and tell them that the king is sincere. here."
"My lord, the letter from Nanguo said that if we are sincere, we will hand over Xiao Jin's head. If we can't, then don't blame them for being rude."
He wants Xiao Jin's head more than anyone else!
"You're welcome, what else can they do if they lose the country alone?"
"My lord, this subordinate thinks this is a big deal. It's too dangerous for us to be here. Why don't you go back to Beijing and report the situation to the emperor, and then even if you want to take Xiao Jin, it will be more reasonable to change your name?"
Liang Kuan didn't think that the emperor would send someone to find Xiao Jin, but he knew that if Xiao Jue stayed here and didn't go back, if the southern country really had a brain twitch, then Xiao Jue would be left with an incompetent The infamy, after all, the emperor asked him to negotiate a peace, and the war broke out after the negotiation, it's not because he is useless or what!
Xiao never wanted to evacuate so soon, as if he was really scared.
Seeing Xiao Jue's thoughts, Liang Kuan could only comfort him earnestly, "My lord, if the Southern Kingdom really comes, the food and grass here will not arrive so quickly. By then..." Xiao Jue couldn't keep it all together, so he had to think of a way. Would Xiao Jue do unpleasant things?
The soldiers guarding the border are half farmers and half soldiers. From the beginning of the imperial court to save food and grass, these soldiers and horses have taken turns to defend. Save a lot of food and grass.
If the war calls everyone back, then the hoarded food and grass will definitely not be enough.
Xiao Jue thought over and over again, although he was unwilling, he could only grit his teeth and go back.
"Let's go back to Beijing early tomorrow morning. We will continue to send people to look for the whereabouts of Su Ying and Xiao Jin. As soon as we have any news, we will report it to me."
"Don't worry, my lord, the people here will never neglect you."
Early the next morning, Xiao Jue left without stopping.
When Nanguo got the news of Xiao Jue's departure, he confirmed his guess even more. He felt that Chuguo was defrauding them, waiting for them to be fooled and wiped them all out. It was really sinister intentions, and immediately asked people to close the border gate. Everyone is only allowed to enter but not to exit, and no one should think of going to the southern country.
