Legend of the Demon Emperor of Kyushu

Chapter 54 Leizhou Association (5)

"What did Liu Caizi come to Leizhou for?" Baicheng Shuang asked Liu Xiyan at the meeting.

"I want to see the scenery of Leizhou and collect writings for future use, so I ask Princess Feng to bring me here. It's a great surprise to meet General Shuang." Liu Xiyan said respectfully.

"If this is the case, my Leizhou terroir will surely shine brightly in Mr.'s pen."

"Leizhou has its own good stories, why do we need outsiders to add color?" Liu Xiyan said with a smile: "When I first entered the border of Ju State, I heard children singing poems: 'Guanguan Jujiu, in the river continent. A fair lady, a gentleman is very good.' (Note [-]) You know that this recipe is top-grade in lyrics and songs, people in the world often say that the northern country is cold and bitter, but what I have seen recently, the treasures of heaven and earth are not inferior to any of the six prefectures."

Baichengshuang was startled when he heard the words, and said seriously: "Thank you for your kind words, sir."

"Sister Shuang, don't be deceived by these literati." Dugufeng came over at this time and said: "Some people say they can't write articles, but in their hearts, they are already thinking about what's going on. .'(Note [-]) Just wait until you go back to the school, and pass it on, so that you will be laughed at by the world."

When Baichengshuang heard the words and believed them, he immediately showed embarrassment.Dugu Fengnai smiled and said: "Sister, don't worry, if he really dares to do this, I will definitely take care of him for my sister."

Baichengshuang raised his eyebrows and said, "So Wang Ji can beat him."

Baichengshuang said this because she felt that Liu Xiyan's skills were not inferior to hers. At the age of 25, she had reached this level, and she probably had a magical weapon by her side.

But she couldn't detect Dugufeng's details at all, as if she had no cultivation base.So after listening to Dugufeng's words, he thought that Dugufeng's hidden skill could beat Liu Xiyan by a head, perhaps even stronger than himself.

But Dugu Feng was stunned when he heard Bai Chengshuang's words, and then smiled and said: "Sister, women usually don't do it themselves when they say they want to clean up a person. Sister thinks so, presumably because she has always done everything by herself and never pretended to do it. Others are really role models for my female generation. My sister admires them."

Baichengshuang fell silent when he heard the words, thinking in his heart that he is really not suitable for such an occasion as a banquet.

At this moment, Dugu Feng held up the wine glass, stood up delicately, and said in a clear voice: "Little girl toasts to the lords."

The noise of the banquet subsided immediately, and only Dugu Feng said: "The little girl came from poverty, and she was originally here to talk about buying horses with the Lord of the Nine Kingdoms on behalf of my father. After all, she is just a merchant.

It's just that when passing through Tianyue Imperial City, he was summoned by his father again.The father is concerned about the people's livelihood, and he is worried that the people in Leizhou will be harassed by horse thieves. When he learned of his daughter's itinerary, he ordered his daughter to ask the lords how the horse thieves are harming this winter, how many troops are there, and whether they can be defeated one by one?
I also ask the lords of the country to take care of the little girl who is ignorant and ignorant, to speak out boldly, and to solve the little girl's confusion, so that the little girl has something to say to the father. "

"Haha, Wang Ji, don't worry, we will not make things difficult for Wang Ji." Yin Changshu, who was in the chief seat, immediately laughed and said, "Please also ask Wang Ji to report back to Your Majesty. The nations of Leizhou have always kept in mind that the Northern Kingdom is the barrier of the Central Province, and every inch of the mountains and rivers are nothing to do with it." The state thieves strive to fight for the territory. The civil and military are of the same mind, and the common people share the same virtue.

But the Qianzhou thieves just paddled a few planks over, doing their own thing, loose and scattered, unable to form an army, and they are by no means an opponent of our heavenly army. "

"That's right!" Cheng Guohou Jiu Fangjian continued: "Horse thieves' strengths are nothing more than riding and shooting. But they crossed the Jiuwanmu River, and they couldn't even bring people together, let alone animals. Riding three thousand horses, sweeping across the territory, where the horse thieves are watching the wind and fleeing, there is no enemy."

"The three guards of the Ju Kingdom guard the whole country, have fought countless battles with the enemy, and have never suffered a loss." Bai Chengjiong said.

"The sun scales and the moon shadow will firmly protect its people." Xia Wuyang said piously.

Baichengshuang raised his head to scan the audience, and suddenly felt that it was the first time he knew these people.

"The lords of the country bravely defend against the enemy, love the people like sons, and my daughter admires them." Dugufeng laughed.

"It's just right, today we have prepared a good show for Wang Ji, which can show the military style of our northern country!" Yin Changshu said with high spirits: "This show is called 'Martial Chess'. , A vertical and horizontal game, would Wang Ji be willing to take a look?"

"Accepting the Lord's kindness, the little girl will be disrespectful." Dugufeng said.

Yin Changshu heard the words and immediately issued an order to go down.

So, after the dance banquet was withdrawn, Yin Changshu asked Baicheng Jiong for advice on chess skills, and finally decided that Baicheng Jiong, Marquis of the State of Ju, would hold the black pieces, and Yin Changshu, the Marquis of Yi State, would hold the red pieces.

The big drum sounded, and Ye Ziqi and Gu Feng, who had been idle in the audience for a long time, immediately cheered up, and the moment to make their debut finally arrived.

From the high platform, you can have a panoramic view of the chess field.The elites of Yi and Ju are divided into courts.

Gu Feng boarded the horse, and Ye Ziqi was sitting in command, only to hear the commanding officer say: Gong Er Ping Wu!The first chess piece is mobilized.

"Horse eight into seven!"

"Three into one!"

……

On the high platform, Baichengshuang carefully introduced the rules of "Martial Chess" to Dugufeng.

Under the high platform, the soldiers were either attracted by the "martial arts chess", or they were still watching the stage dutifully—in fact, they were looking at the two beauties sitting together, reluctant to take their eyes away.

Only the people on the chessboard stared at each other nervously at this moment, thinking about the strategy against the enemy in their hearts.

"Four horses enter three, eat pawns!"

This program, aimed at showing Dugu Feng and his party the military power of the Northern Kingdom, passed down the order of the first attacker.

All the audience looked at the black "horse" chess player together, only to see that the cavalry soldier's face remained unchanged, he turned his horse's head, and charged straight at the red "pawn" chess player.Who is it right now?It was Gu Feng!

Gu Feng leaned out his sword obliquely upwards, and put on a stance in advance to chop vertically, and bullied the horse.Seeing this, the red chess soldiers came to block with their spears, and the men and horses intersected. Gu Feng didn't change his move, he slashed down with his sword, and chopped down three inches of the horizontal spear, pressing it to the red pawn's neck. Returning the move, I saw that the long sword was already stabbing towards his neck!

The red pawn was shocked, and stepped back to dodge with all his strength, but the sword light was like a god of death, entangled with his gun and chased after him. The helmet was chopped off by a sword!
Amidst the sound of "bang dang", the red pawn watched the helmet fall to the ground, and nervously covered his neck with his hands, making sure that no blood was drawn, and he was in shock.

Gu Feng had already passed the red pawn, but in the eyes of all the people, he didn't immediately turn the horse's head, but buckled forward with his left hand, and pushed the horse's head down!

Before people realized what his intention was, the next moment, Gu Feng's steed raised its two hind hooves at the same time, and stared fiercely behind it!
The horse's hoof kicked precisely on the stunned red pawn, and with a scream, the red pawn flew five steps away in the air!
"Snapped!"

The gongs and drums beat.

"Hei wins!"

Inside the palace, there was a lot of noise.

Amidst the lively applause, Ye Ziqi was not very excited, he knew that Gu Feng would win of course, but at this moment, he cast his eyes on the high platform.

Seeing that Baicheng Jiong won the chess, he didn't react much, Yin Changshu lost the chess, and he didn't feel upset, but he talked to Wang Ji with a smile on his face, as if asking Wang Ji whether she was happy or not.

Ye Ziqi suddenly had a strange idea in his heart.

This is the Leizhou Club, he is a chess piece, they are chess players, there is no doubt that those people on the high platform determine the future of Leizhou Beiguo.

However, is the fate of Leizhou really determined by the chess players?
