Chapter 4 Gambling with the Queen as a Wife

Chapter 4 Gambling Qing as Wife

Wan Renyu said: "This should be the last time we gather here for dinner! I really can't bear to part with it."

He and Long Ying went to the open-air canteen in the market for medical treatment.

Feng Guoting agreed: "The flood receded very quickly, and the enemy might come to attack the city tomorrow. Zong Mi was eager to restore his prestige, so he ordered his people to make two wooden chariots and use shields to block the arrows, so they could attack the gate.

."

Looking for Nan Tian said: "What Ying Ye shot this morning was only Zong Mi Zhi's animal-headed staff. Why did it cause him to vomit blood and be injured?"

Long Ying said: "Ask me, who should I ask? Maybe he made a fool of himself on the spot and was provoked to vomit blood!"

"lie!"

The four of them looked at each other in astonishment. Yue Ling came to the table slowly and quickly like a ghost, and to everyone's surprise sat opposite them. She was covered in a white robe with yellow edges and wore a top hat.

The yellow hat still hangs a gauze scarf, but it is not hanging down from the hat, but is buckled horizontally, covering the area below the root of the nose, but revealing a pair of jewel-like eyes, which is another kind of graceful and charming style.

Everyone was stunned for a moment.

Longying glanced at Mi Nantian and said awkwardly: "When Yue Ling said this, didn't he mean that I deceived Brother Mi?"

Yue Zhen said coldly: "Even if you don't mean to deceive, it's still incomplete and unclear."

Feng Guoting came to Long Ying's rescue and said to Mi Nan Tian: "Brother Mi, don't blame Long Ying. There are things he really cannot tell."

Minantian said without hesitation: "I understand this, just like I also have some things that I can never tell others."

Yue Ling's eyes fell on Feng Guoting and said, "Then it's up to you to tell me!"

Feng Guoting smiled bitterly and said: "How can I reveal his secret? Isn't that why the princess is here!"

After Yue Ling stared at him for a long time, she glanced at him with bright eyes, as if she was a bit coquettish. Not only was Feng Guoting the first to be stunned, the other three people also felt fascinated.

Yue Ling's eyes moved to Longying and said softly: "Who are you?"

Long Ying said with a smile: "If the princess can explain clearly why she asked such a strange question, and if I am satisfied, I might be willing to give the princess an answer."

Wan Renyu and Feng Guoting found out that his demonic nature was aroused by Yue Ling, so they began to switch from defense to offense and challenged Yue Ling.

Mi Nantian was very interested and watched the two people's exchange of words with great interest.

Yue Ling looked at the bright moon in the sky with a dreamy look in her eyes. Although everyone could not see the whole leopard, they seemed to be able to see her expression just from her eyes.

Yue Ling said leisurely and fascinated: "Since the death of the female ghost master Danran of the Bai tribe, Zong Mizhi's magic power has continued to grow, and he has become a terrifying ghost master that no one in the Erdian region is afraid of. When he integrated the Mengxu and Yue

Analyzing the two tribes and adopting an expansion policy, the Erdian District has actually fallen under his evil and terrifying power. Almost no one dares to resist him. His own martial arts skills are enough to make him the number one person in Erdian.

When his martial arts is combined with sorcery, not only is there no one in the Erdian region who can control him, but even in the whole world, there is probably no one who can match him. Otherwise, how could the King of Tubo lose his life at his hands?"

Minantian couldn't help but said: "It's not that powerful!"

Yue Ling said: "This is just because his sorcery still has flaws, but because no one has the ability to force him to reveal it, it creates the illusion that no one can control him. But last night and this morning, he encountered two powerful people.

The nemesis of breaking his evil spell will be a huge blow to him, which you can't imagine, so don't say I didn't warn you first, Zong Mi Zhi will do anything to destroy you."

Wan Renyu said calmly: "Can I ask more? The princess is just a little girl who grew up in Mengshezhao. Why does she know more about Zong Mi Zhi than your brother Piroge?

?”

Yue Ling said calmly: "Maybe one day I will be willing to tell you, but not tonight, because I first have to satisfy the commander-in-chief before he is willing to recruit who he is."

Feng Guoting said: "How did the name Yue Ling come about? Why is your name a secret?"

Yue Ling frowned and said, "Why do you ask?"

Feng Guoting's eyes were sharp, staring directly into her eyes, and slowly said word by word: "Because the real name of the female ghost master Danran, like your name, cannot be spoken.

"

Yue Ling stared at him blankly for a while, then asked in surprise: "How do you know about the female ghost master Danran?"

Feng Guoting stepped forward and said, "Answer the question I just asked first."

The wind passing through the court at this moment was as sharp and unstoppable as his rainbow sword that could cut through gold and jade. Long Ying and Wan Renyu, who were familiar with him, felt strange.

Yue Ling said coldly: "I haven't liked answering questions since I was a child, and I never have to answer questions. Brother Ting! Don't be aggressive!"

In the last two sentences, the voice became softer, with a hint of coquettishness, and the mood of a little girl, which was very different from the sophisticated and mature tone of the first two sentences.

The three of them were stunned.

Feng Guoting, however, refused to give in and said with a smile: "Are all the things about you Meng Shezhao's secrets? Even your brother doesn't know and dare not interfere, including your name and age."

Yue Ling sighed quietly and said: "Since you have guessed it, why do you still ask? Can you wait until they finish talking?"

Feng Guoting smiled casually and nodded slightly to Long Ying.

Long Ying said to Mi Nantian: "Brother Mi, are you confused about the weird conversation between us and Yue Ling?"

Mi Nantian said: "Of course it is difficult to fully grasp. The relationship between the three of them and the princess is not as simple as it seems, but the more I listen to it, the more fresh and exciting it becomes. It feels like watching the masters compete, and it is dizzying. Don't pay attention to me, don't

There should be no scruples, we are already brothers who have had a life-long friendship, and we will keep the secret for you."

Then he said: "But there is one thing that is really confusing. Why did the three of you suddenly become energetic and have strange lights in your eyes after the princess admitted that the young master guessed it right?"

Wan Renyu said happily: "Then you have to listen more." He turned to Yue Ling and said: "Princess, don't blame us for joining forces, there is a good intention behind it."

Yue Ling said angrily: "I'm doing you a favor! But you're interrogating me about this and that. What kind of logic is that?"

The naughty little girl is back again.

The three of them had long been accustomed to her wisdom and mature charm, and they didn't know how to "deal with" the unruly princess at the moment.

Yue Lingxuan returned to his usual indifferent and autistic state, and said calmly: "Do you want to continue listening?"

Feng Guoting said: "I know that the princess can come when she wants and go when she wants. However, because the matter is so important, please do not flee the scene, otherwise we will follow you like ghosts in hanging boots."

Yue Ling said angrily: "Who wants to be a deserter? Since I met you in Erxi Ji, I have been following you because there is nothing better to do. I am even more afraid that you will eat Zongmi without understanding it.

It’s a great loss of wisdom. But it wasn’t until last night, when I witnessed your Brother Ting forcing back the arrogant Zong Mi Zhi, that I really saw the dawn of hope. But until this moment, I still don’t understand why you came to Erhai. Can you tell me

me?"

Wan Renyu said: "We came here, met you at Erxi Ji, and now we are fighting side by side to defend Fengcheng. Nothing is accidental, it is a destined fate. It can be said that I and Long Ying

, I’m just a brother who comes to pick up the bride with Brother Ting. Ha! It’s so cool.”

Yue Ling was startled and said: "Who is the bride?"

Feng Guoting smiled and said: "It's still not clear yet, but it will be clear soon."

Yue Ling's pair of beautiful eyes were gleaming, making her jewel-like eyes sparkle and extremely moving. However, her tone was so calm that it was almost cold, and she said: "You have gone too far. Now I only care about Zong Mizhi's affairs."

, Aren’t you worried at all? Things have their own priorities!”

Feng Guoting asked: "Is the princess restricted by the law that she cannot marry?"

The three of them understood that Yue Ling was the female ghost master ordered by Meng She, or the heir of the great ghost master, so everything about her and even her name must be kept secret.

Yue Ling rolled her eyes at him, her eyes seeming to say, "Why are you asking questions knowingly? As long as you are not blind, you will see that Yue Ling has no affection for Feng Guoting."

Long Ying interjected: "Since the Great Ghost Lord is not allowed to marry, how did the sect's secret wisdom come about? His parents are both great Ghost Lords with powerful magic powers."

Yue Ling said calmly: "It involves sect skills and broken laws. The mother of Zong Mi Zhi must have discovered a secret that can never be grasped. In addition, she had feelings for her, so she had to commit herself to marrying."

Feng Guoting said casually: "The princess and I will make a bet. If I can tell the year, month, and day when the princess was born, the princess will marry me, Feng Guoting, and have children for me."

The four of them, including Yue Ling, were dumbfounded and could only stare at him. For a moment, it was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

The sound of footsteps came.

Ye Qiye hurried over and saw Yue Ling sitting there. He respectfully said hello. Then he said, "It's time!"

The city gate was opened, the drawbridge was lowered, and more than twenty cavalry galloped out of the Windy City and ran towards the stone bridge. A group of 500 enemy soldiers guarding behind the trench woke up from their nap and prepared their formation.

Last night, both the enemy and the enemy stayed up all night, but because Longying took the initiative and was the big winner from the flood, the morale and spirit were very different. Zongmi Zhi's army suffered heavy losses one after another, and Zongmi, who was revered as a god,

Zhi Geng vomited blood and was injured in front of everyone. He was in a depressed mood that he had never experienced before. He was all listless. He only hoped that Long Ying and others were just pretending to show off their power and were not really coming to attack their blockade.

A young general rode up from the rear, preparing to command his own troops in battle. A cold arrow shot from the Dragon Eagle's folding bow fell from the sky, broke into his helmet, and penetrated his face. The young general let out a miserable howl before he died, and fell off his horse.

, his right foot was still entangled in the stirrup, and the war horse did not know that its master had been killed by an arrow. It dragged the body, making a thrilling sound of friction with the ground, marking the beginning of the war.

The enemy camp's horn sounded, and several groups of cavalry galloped out from each camp to strengthen the defense.

More than ten large torches were erected behind the trench, illuminating the front line as bright as day. However, the stone bridge more than 200 paces away, and from there to Fengcheng, had no lights at all. It was pitch black. To the enemy, it was

The enemy is in darkness and we are clear, so we can only judge the distance of the attacker based on the sound of hoofbeats.

Screams rang out one after another, and the shield bearers in the front row were unable to block the effect at all. Some of the soldiers in the rear could not help but fall to the ground after being hit by arrows. Some of the archers in the formation were frightened and blindly fired forward, but they were all swallowed up by the darkness, facing the dragon.

The Eagle side doesn't pose any threat at all.

The commander of the army saw that the situation was not right. He gave an order and all five hundred people knelt down. Unexpectedly, another cold arrow was shot silently, passing through the shield array and through the neck of the army commander. There was a burst of enemy troops on the front line.

There is confusion and people are in panic.

Suddenly a black shadow soared into the sky and entered the range illuminated by the torch light. The archers fired hundreds of arrows without waiting for instructions, but how could they hit the target? When they were all in the air, the opponent crossed the trench and came down from the sky, striking with the light of their swords.

Flash: Six or seven enemy soldiers who were still half-kneeling on the ground declared that their bodies were missing.

Dragon Eagle carried a black sword in his hand, and while the enemy was still in shock, he started killing. The enemy gave him a black sword weighing a hundred kilograms and struck it on the iron shield, making a "ding-dang" sound. Before he had a chance to fight back, he gave it to him

Even the man with the shield was hacked away, the demonic energy invaded his body from the shield, and he was shocked to death. In addition, he advanced and retreated like the wind, left and right, the sword expanded and contracted, and enemies everywhere were thrown and fell, making it difficult to form a formation.

At this time, Wan Ren Yu, Feng Guoting, Minan Tian and Ye Qi Ye came over the trenches and threw themselves into the battle. In no time, the enemy's 500 frontline troops were shattered into pieces by the impact, and they were completely defeated, with corpses lying everywhere.

The enemy's frontline positions were not originally so muddy. They not only built earthen ramparts, but also set up barriers such as fences. However, when the flood came, everything was washed away, even the spikes stuck in the bottom of the trenches.

As the mud rose up, all military defenses were reduced to nothing overnight, leaving only flesh and blood to withstand the fierce attacks of the five masters.

When enemy reinforcements arrived, the dragon eagle screamed, crossed the trench, and flew back towards the stone bridge.

Dozens of cavalry rushed out of the trenches from the corridor, bent their bows and fired arrows at Long Ying and others who were in the dark. It was not known whether they hit the target. Arrows rained down from both sides, and the enemy cavalry began to rain down.

The arrow fell from the horse, and the war horse was frightened. The empty cavalry turned around and ran back, bumping into the cavalry who were swarming out from the aisle. There was a chaos. Some soldiers, including men and horses, fell into the trench, cursing and hissing.

, it is no longer possible to organize an effective offensive.

It turns out that the two archery towers near Shiqiao and Fengcheng have long been occupied by the Eagle Clan. Their archery skills are famous in Erhai. Now they are condescending and their goals are obvious. Who can break through their arrows?

The enemy's war drums sounded, and two groups of infantry marched out from the eight corridors and formed a formation outside the trench. Although everyone showed signs of fatigue, those holding shields and swords still had a certain power.

The war drums sounded again, and a force of a thousand men advanced towards the stone bridge with steady steps. The front row held their iron shields flat, and the shields behind them all raised their shields diagonally above their heads, forming a tight shield formation.

They were arranged in a row of ten, which was exactly the width of the stone bridge. This showed that they were not charging into the formation haphazardly, showing their well-trained military appearance.

The sound of the war drums became urgent and short.

The enemy shouted loudly and changed from advancing steadily to running quickly, heading towards the stone bridge.

The archers who hid behind the shield formation fired their powerful arrows from their strings and threw them towards the stone bridge. They also lit four torches and illuminated most of the stone bridge, immediately reversing the enemy's initial defeat.

When we stepped onto the stone bridge, there was still no sign of anyone on the bridge, and the expected cold arrows were not shot down from the archery tower.

The young general who led the army knew that something was not going well, but since it was a point of no return, he bravely rushed to the other end of the three-foot-long stone bridge.

Suddenly a figure flashed, and Dragon Eagle rushed onto the stone bridge, cutting off the enemy with a single sword at the end. The black sword was all about slashing, sweeping, and other wide-open and wide-open moves. The sword was full of magic power.

The person who was hit, no matter whether he was a master or a low hand, never imagined that there was a sword weighing a hundred kilograms? Therefore, it was like being hit hard by a big stone. Either the person and the shield were thrown back, or the weapon was thrown back.

Sweep it down the river.

Long Ying turned sideways and put his foot on the belly of an enemy, causing the unfortunate enemy to fly back. After knocking down seven or eight of his own people, he realized that his stamina was not going to last, so he backed away.

The entire stone bridge was filled with enemies who had been killed in one go. Torches were tied along the stone bridge, illuminating the long bridge with blood. The Eagle Tribe warriors on the archery tower fired arrows again, and everyone who stepped on the bridge became living targets. More than ten people were killed.

In the next breath, corpses were lying everywhere on the bridge, and blood flowed from the bridge into the river. The situation was unbearable to see.

Long Ying withdrew, and Wan Renyu and Ye Qiye came in with two fresh troops. Their momentum was like a rainbow, and they actually killed the enemy so hard that they retreated step by step. No matter who advanced or retreated, they would trample on their corpses. The whole sky was shaken by the shouts of killing.

The mountain city and the hilly wilderness beyond it.

The war affected the enemy's entire army, and reinforcements were constantly coming. They set up formations outside the trenches, preparing to take over the retreating troops. Under the cover of the shield formation, the two teams of archers moved forward to both sides of the stone bridge and attacked the two archery towers across the bank.

They launched a counterattack, but the Eagle Tribe warriors did not fight back, but they did not know whether they were hiding behind arrow shields or whether they were empty.

The stone bridge became the bottleneck area for the confrontation between the two armies. Under the cover of darkness, it became the key point of the entire battlefield.

When Wan Renyu and Ye Qiye were close to running out of oil and lamps, Feng Guoting and Minan Tian took their place, guarding the bridge.

The enemy general took advantage of the situation to recall the troops who had suffered heavy casualties at the front, and replaced them with another group of people to attack. Before anyone arrived, enemy arrows rained down from the sky.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Long Ying shouted "Zhahu!" and took the lead in running towards the Windy City.

The enemy's commanding general, who had been in battle for a long time, immediately blew the horn, and those who had boarded the bridge hurriedly stepped aside. The cavalry team, which was waiting for them, no longer had any scruples, and rushed across the stone bridge at high speed, heading towards the suspension bridge.

When the enemy's commander saw his own knights rushing onto the drawbridge in time, he was overjoyed and knew no tricks, and issued an order for a full-scale attack on the city.
