Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1662 The Battle for the Stone of Fire (Four Seasons)

Several people watched Han Xin leave. Except for Wei Zhuang, the other three people were more or less murmuring in their hearts.

This person comes suddenly and leaves in a hurry, and he always knows all kinds of news... What is his origin?
  Among them, Gai Nie was still more keen. His eyes quietly swept over his junior brother, and he had some guesses, but he didn't say anything.

From the current point of view, Han Xin, who has a mysterious origin, must have his own little agenda, but Ge Nie can basically be sure that the other party and Luo Wang are not the same.

In this case, there is no need to be too nervous.

Seeing Han Xin's figure completely disappear from sight, Long Qie turned his attention back to business, looked at several companions and said:

"There is no delay in rescuing people. I will take them to Chi Youtang now."

"What's the point of going?" Wei Zhuang curled his lips when he heard this and asked with a sneer, "With you and the hundreds of people under you, do you still want to force your way into Chi You Hall?"

His tone of speaking to people in the Mo family was always direct and venomous, without regard to whether the other party would be comfortable hearing it - he only ensured that his words were correct.

Although Tian Hu's focus is definitely on the Zhu family now, that doesn't mean that Chi Youtang has become an empty shell from which anyone can save people.

Not to mention that Tian Hu probably not only simply locked people up, but also arranged back-up tactics to deal with them.

Long Qie... is too weak!
  Long Qie had a good temper and was not angry. He calmly asked, "What do you think Mr. Wei Zhuang has to say?"

Wei Zhuang said nothing and turned to Gai Nie.

Gai Nie quickly said, "Let Xiaozhuang and I go rescue people. General Long Qie and Mr. Xiaoyao will stay here to prevent accidents."

Long Qie arched his brows and said with some worry, "There are many farmers, and the strength of the two of them is worthy of each other, but it may be a little inconvenient to save people..."

The specific situation of Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer is still unclear. If the two of them are injured and basically lose their ability to move, it will be difficult for two people to escape.

Xiaoyaozi stroked his beard and nodded, and then said, "It's better to let Long Qie take the people with him and provide support to prevent any unexpected events."

"Now that Zhong Limei's injury has stabilized, it's enough for me to stay here alone."

Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang looked at each other and nodded.

The plan was finalized, and without any further delay, Gai Nie and the others immediately set off for the entrance of Chiyou Hall.

………………

Han Xin, who left Ganie and the others, was still busy and rushed to another place without stopping.

A remote small farmhouse in the mountains looked like the home of ordinary people living in the mountains. It was very similar to the place where Ji Bu temporarily hid.

The terrain of Daze Mountain is complex, with mountains and waters, streams and ravines, valleys and ditches... There are many small courtyards hidden in corners like this.

As for what exactly it does...only the owner of the house knows.

And this room has exactly the same purpose as Ji Bu's room - for hiding.

Hiding here is the black swordsman Shengqi who was severely injured by Tian Hu and the others before.

Han Xin carried the sword on his back and walked slowly towards the house. Suddenly the door opened wide, a whistling sound sounded, and the huge black sword suddenly shot out from it, carrying a faint bloody sword light and hitting Han Xin's chest.

He hurriedly turned back just in time to avoid the giant bridge, allowing it to plunge into a big tree behind.

As soon as he landed and before he could stand upright, there were subtle footsteps behind him again. Shengqi people had quietly appeared behind him and were pressing their giant sword against his back.

Han Xin resisted the urge to give a French military salute, just raised one hand and waved it as a greeting, and then slowly stood up straight.

Sheng Qi now recognized Han Xin, who had invited him in the name of the Zhu family, and subconsciously asked with some surprise:
  "Is it you?"

"The Zhu family sent you as a lobbyist this time?"

Han Xin looked down at Juque's thick blade and shook his head, "No."

As soon as he said this answer, the big tree that had just been struck by the huge bridge broke with a creak and fell to the ground.

Although the tree is quite old and has a very thick trunk, its diameter is only about the same as the width of the giant tower, which is basically equivalent to being cut directly in half.

"Then why are you here?" Sheng Qi ignored the fallen tree and stared at Han Xin fiercely and calmly and asked, "Is it possible that you started doing things for others?"

Shengqi suspected that Han Xin had sold him.

"Don't be nervous." In response, Han Xin raised his hand slightly to comfort Sheng Qi, "If I were an enemy, I wouldn't appear here alone."

"..." Shengqi stared at him for a while, then finally relaxed, put Juque behind his back, and said rudely, "Speak directly if you have something to say, I don't like to beat around the bush."

Sheng Qi said so, but Han Xin came up and said nonsense.

He took a look at the situation in the yard, gave a stiff smile and said, "It's very secluded here, very suitable for injured people to hide."

When Sheng Qi heard the word 'hiding', he was immediately irritated and retorted angrily, "I don't need to hide, it's them who should be afraid!"

"Black Swordsman is indeed a name that is feared in the world," Han Xin nodded cooperatively and boasted, "You have been sentenced to heavy punishment by the Seven Kingdoms, but there is no prison that can trap you."

"Challenging the world's most powerful enemies, making the two hundred giants jump to the twelfth place in just a few years."

"Shengqi is indeed a famous name."

After hearing this, Sheng Qi's eyes shrank, and he turned around, no longer facing Han Xin directly. Memories flashed in his eyes, and then he replied in a low tone, "That's not my name."

Han Xin nodded, "Indeed, you have another name in the farmhouse."

"I only have one name!" Shengqi emphasized coldly upon hearing this.

Shengqi was never his name, just a... code name.

Han Xin frowned and shrugged, "You're right, you only have one name, a name that you haven't found yet."

"I just don't know. Is it the name of Hall Master Kuui that you want to retrieve, or the name of an abandoned peasant disciple?"

"What are you going to say!?" Sheng Qi's voice was mixed with hidden anger. If Han Xin didn't tell the key point, he would probably take action.

Han Xin pursed his lips and smiled, then got back to the topic, "Before you clear your name, there is one more important matter that I think you need to deal with."

"What's the matter?" Sheng Qi frowned and asked.

"You owe the Zhu family that life." Han Xin replied calmly.

"The Zhu family has obtained the Stone of Enlightenment, and the position of leader of the heroes seems to be within easy reach. However, most of the power of the peasant family has been captured by Tian Hu, and the Zhu family is actually at a disadvantage."

"They are rushing to the Sixth Tomb of Emperor Yan right now. I think I should tell you this."

After saying that, Han Xin turned around and left without saying another word to Sheng Qi.

Sheng Qi had no intention of continuing to question Han Xin. After letting him leave, he quickly left the place.

According to Han Xin's words, the Zhu family seems to have the upper hand now, but in fact they are in danger, in danger, and in urgent need of additional help.

To be honest, in Sheng Qi's view, although the overall strength of the Zhu family is slightly weaker, Tian Hu's brains cannot outwit the Zhu family.     If there are no other factors affecting this battle between heroes and chiefs, the Zhu family should be a sure winner.

Even if you count the interference from off-field factors, at most it will not be smooth, and it will not put you in danger and your life will be worried.

But... he couldn't see through Han Xin, this mysterious man who claimed to be a nobody, and he didn't dare to underestimate the message delivered by the other party.

More importantly, if his position as the hero is really coming to an end, he must go there, even if his injuries have not fully recovered.

………………

Daze Mountain, outside Four Seasons Town.

Zhu Jia, Qu Shang, Liu Ji, and Situ Wanli, surrounded and escorted by many farm disciples, were heading towards Four Seasons Town.

Although there is only one road leading to the Tomb of the Six Immortals of Emperor Yan, it is only the last section.

Before that, there were still many routes to choose from, and taking the Four Seasons Town was one of them.

Looking at the faintly visible outline of Four Seasons Town, the short and fat Zhu family smiled and touched the box containing the Stone of Fire and said:
  "Hey, we're finally here."

“It’s really hard work for this thing!”

Situ Wanli also said with joy, "The process was very hard, but the result is perfect."

"As long as you pass through Four Seasons Town, you will not be far from the Tomb of the Six Sages of Emperor Yan. After handing the things to the six elders, the position of the leader of the heroes will be yours, Hall Master Zhu."

The Zhu family didn't know when they switched to the 'sorrow' side again, and responded with a sigh, "Oh... I hope so."

Upon seeing this, Liu Ji asked with a smile, "We are almost done. Why is my brother looking so sad?"

"Alas..." Zhu Jia let out another long sigh, tapped his fingers lightly on the box, and replied sadly, "Brother, I seem to have the upper hand now, but Tian Hu is still very annoying. Worry.”

"Earlier, a brother sent news that Tian Hu had captured the Mo family's Gao Jianli and Big Iron Hammer."

"Ah?" Liu Ji was stunned when he heard this, "Is Tian Hu mentally ill? Are you going to deal with the Mo family at this time?"

"That's the problem." The Zhu family sighed. "At this time, he dares to take the initiative to provoke a dispute with the Mo family. Obviously, he is very confident about the opponent who competes with him for the position of the hero."

"Haha..." Liu Jigan laughed twice and made no comment.

With Tian Hu's brain, it was difficult for him to tell whether the other party was confident before he dared to take action, or whether he was simply overheated.

After thinking for a while, Liu Ji sighed, "Speaking of which, Tian Hu is really worthy of his name. He is quite a tiger. He completely ignored the old friendship between the Nongmo and Nongmo families and took action as soon as he said it."

"Hehe!" Zhu Jia cut to the 'happy' side and smiled, "Tian Hu, it's not the first day you've met him."

"From the moment I learned that Gao Jianli and the others were the first to meet Tian Hu, I guessed that it would eventually lead to this result."

Liu Ji sighed with a hint of regret when he heard this, "Hey, it's such a pity, otherwise they might be our helpers."

"It's not a loss now. It can cause Tian Hu more or less trouble." Situ Wanli interjected with a smile.

"Yes... we're here!" Liu Ji nodded, and at the same time he also realized that he had officially arrived at Four Seasons Town.

Four Seasons Town is the most special town in Dazeshan.

All towns and villages around Daze Mountain are basically located in the outermost circle, with only a few people living alone inside.

The reason is naturally because Daze Mountain is the territory of farmers.

Of course, this has no impact on the people.

As mentioned before, the terrain of Daze Mountain is complex, and few acres of land can be cultivated. Farmers never prohibit activities such as fishing and hunting.

Four Seasons Town is the only one located inside Daze Mountain, and it is a relatively core area - it is close to the Six Tombs of Emperor Yan, and the Six Tombs of Emperor Yan are located in the center of Daze Mountain.

Moreover, this town was built by farmers alone, not a spontaneous gathering of people, nor was it the work of the empire.

Therefore, the purpose of this town's existence is also very pure - to serve farmers' disciples.

As long as you are a human being, you will have all kinds of needs. Farm disciples are also human beings and they will have all the needs they should have.

Naturally, someone is needed to meet these needs and serve the farm disciples.

The towns around Daze Mountain are generally desolate and backward, and the distance is far away, which is inconvenient for farm disciples, so Four Seasons Town was born.

This place is always bustling and lively on weekdays, always crowded with people. However, it has been depressed recently due to the increasing tension between the six halls.

However, today's Four Seasons Town has returned to the bustling scene of the past, with people everywhere coming and going in and out of the streets.

When something goes wrong, there must be a monster.

There is naturally a reason why the number of people in Four Seasons Town will increase again - it is all arranged by the Zhu family.

Of course he chose the road to Four Seasons Town because there were sufficient arrangements on this road.

"Hey! It's not worth brother's preparations. The Four Seasons Town is too safe for us now!" Liu Ji sighed with a happy face.

Just during the short walk in, he saw several familiar brothers.

Now Four Seasons Town is full of brothers from Shennong Hall and Siyue Hall. Even if Tian Hu leads people to chase them, it will not be easy to break into the town.

The Zhu family pinched their whiskers and responded proudly, "The closer we get to the end, the more we must ensure absolute safety!"

"It's only a matter of time before Tian Hu figures out our position and comes over. We must make complete preparations first."

Situ Wanli followed up and said, "Tian Hu has dealt with the Mo family's people so that he can go on a big fight and use all his strength to deal with us."

"Hall Master Zhu is taking the initiative to choose the battlefield and seize the opportunity."

The Zhu family smiled proudly, "This place can be attacked when advancing and defended when retreating. It is really a treasure."

"Brother Situ, your eyes are still so cunning and vicious!"

It seems that this place was chosen by Situ Wanli.

"As long as Hall Master Zhu is satisfied." Situ Wanli did not take any credit. He ignored the topic lightly and then asked curiously, "Speaking of which, Hall Master Zhu, your secret weapon - thousands of people with thousands of faces, no Do you know if there is a chance to see something this time?”

The Zhu family's reputation in the world is "Half-hearted, Thousands of People, Thousands of Faces."

This not only refers to his character of assessing the situation, being cautious and nimble, and speaking nonsense to others, but also refers to his special skill - half-heartedly tapping acupuncture points, and the legendary secret skill - thousands of people with thousands of faces.

But what exactly Thousand People and Thousand Faces are, almost no one knows.

Some people say it's a powerful martial arts, others say it's a special team hiding in the dark, and still others say it's just a gimmick, used to scare people.

Situ Wanli didn't know what it was, but it was obvious that he was very concerned or curious about what Thousand People and Thousand Faces was.
