Chapter 573 573 Surrounded, the last laugh is the winner
Chapter 573 Surrounded by 573, the winner is the one who laughs in the end
Things developed exactly as Xiao Jiuan expected. Not long after Li Yuan left, news came from outside that their Zhuangzi was surrounded by people from the Demon Sect.
The number of people from the Demon Sect is not too many, but not too few. To surround Zhuangzi, at least three hundred people are needed.
However, so many people could be brought into the guest room, which shows that there are so many followers of the Demon Cult, and it is enough to show that they are afraid of Xiao Jiuan.
"Master Jiu, there are more than 500 people outside, and the leader is the Great Protector of the Demon Sect. He said outside that there might be some misunderstanding, and asked the prince to go out and talk." The guard hurriedly walked in and said.
"Great Protector? You really gave me face." Xiao Jiuan laughed mockingly and said, "Since there is a misunderstanding, please invite the Great Protector to come in and discuss it in detail."
"Returning to Master Jiu, this is what Master Li said. The Great Protector said that if we are sincere, we should go out." The Demon Cult's Great Protector said this, but because of the large number of people, he thought they would be afraid.
The people of the Demon Cult really underestimate them. They are not afraid of thousands of troops on the battlefield. How can they be afraid of such a small number of people?
"Sincerity? Go, let them see what sincerity is." The Demon Cult is too self-righteous if it wants to bully others with more people.
"Yes, Master Jiu." The guard bowed his head and responded, then turned around and went to show their "sincerity" to the Demon Sect's Great Protector.
After the guards left, Xiao Jiuan also stood up and walked out, but not to the outside of Zhuangzi, but to the main courtyard nearby.
He and Ji Yunkai were living in this courtyard for the time being.
"You can go." Xiao Jiuan stood at the door and said.
"Is the person here?" Ji Yun opened the work door and walked out.
At this moment, she is dressed in military uniform and has a heroic appearance. She has the charm of a daughter but also the heroism of a soldier. The two temperaments blend together and are indescribably attractive.
"It's very beautiful." Xiao Jiu'an's eyes lit up and he answered the question incorrectly.
Ji Yunkai's face suddenly turned red: "Master Jiu, we are talking about business."
"What I'm talking about is serious." Xiao Jiu'an was serious, his face was as serious as he wanted to be.
Ji Yunkai was so angry and funny that he didn't know what to say for a moment.
"Ahem..." Ji Yunkai coughed slightly to cover up his discomfort: "Didn't you say let's go? Let's go."
"Yes." Xiao Jiu'an stepped forward and naturally held Ji Yunkai's hand: "Let's go."
Ji Yunkai instinctively wanted to pull it back, but Xiao Jiuan's grip was too tight. She moved but couldn't pull it out. She tried hard but still couldn't pull it out, so she had to give up in the end.
In order to prevent others from seeing their hands clasped together, Ji Yunkai could only walk next to Xiao Jiu'an to hide their clasped hands.
Xiao Jiuan did not speak, but the slightly raised corners of his mouth betrayed his good mood.
This small village is also Mo Qixi's property near Black Rock Mountain. There is a secret road under the small village that leads to the outside of the city. Now the two of them use the secret road to get out of the mountain and join the army outside the mountain.
As for where the army came from?
Naturally, they were the soldiers and horses that Xiao Jiuan had gone out to find all day and night.
These soldiers and horses are not from Tianqi or Yanbei Army, but from Beichen!
As Beichen's enemy, even if Xiao Jiuan's true identity is Beichen's prince, he has no right to borrow troops from Beichen, let alone deploy troops, but don't forget that he has a close relationship with Beichen's general Wang Liuyuan.
He does not have the right to mobilize Beichen's troops, but Liu Yuan, the general king, can, and with Liu Yuan's handwritten message, as long as Xiao Jiuan does not show up, he can use Beichen's troops in Black Rock Mountain at will.
Beichen originally had only 10,000 troops stationed in Black Rock Mountain, and they were all old, weak, sick and disabled, but Xiao Jiuan asked Mo Qixi to contact Liu Yuan long before departure.
A month ago, Liu Yuan ordered his lieutenants to lead troops to inspect the border. It happened that during this period, a lieutenant brought five thousand troops to the border of Black Rock Mountain.
Of course, all this is by no means a coincidence. There are not so many coincidences in this world. The so-called coincidences are all the result of deliberate calculations by thoughtful people.
Five thousand soldiers and horses are not much, but these five thousand people are Liu Yuan's elite troops. There is absolutely no problem with one against ten, not to mention one against three. With these five thousand people in hand, it is enough to wipe out the remaining countries of other countries.
Garrison at the border of Blackstone Mountain.
Xiao Jiuan and Ji Yunkai followed the secret passage and soon walked out of the Black Rock Mountain. At the exit of the secret passage, Mo Qixi's people had been waiting for a long time.
"Master Jiu, the horses and military symbols are here. Take a look." Mo Qixi's people saw Xiao Jiu'an and Ji Yunkai coming out and hurriedly led the horses forward.
Along with the soldier talisman, there was also an extremely ugly mask given to Xiao Jiuan.
"Yeah." After Xiao Jiuan saw the military talisman, he handed it to Ji Yunkai. As for the mask?
He would bring it himself.
"I thought the mask was for me." When Ji Yunkai first saw the mask, he instinctively thought that Xiao Jiuan wanted her to wear the mask to cover up her beauty.
She wore a mask when she left the city, but when she arrived at the Black Rock Mountain territory, she took off the mask.
She still remembers how exaggerated Fei Xiaochai screamed when he saw her true appearance, and kept saying it was a shame, it was a shame that she was so beautiful, and it was a shame that she married Xiao Jiu'an.
It wasn't until Xiao Jiuan beat Fei Xiaochai that Fei Xiaochai calmed down and no longer dared to stare at her face.
"Everyone in the world knows that Princess Yanbei's appearance is completely ruined and she needs a mask to cover up her appearance. Now you are not Princess Yanbei." Having an additional identity is a kind of protection for Ji Yunkai.
"The King of Yanbei has never been a womanizer, but there is a stunning woman by his side. Aren't you afraid of people misunderstanding him?" Ji Yunkai now doesn't care at all whether he wears a mask or not.
The mask is just a tool for convenience. She won't feel uncomfortable wearing it, and she won't get used to taking it off.
"What's the misunderstanding?" Xiao Jiu'an asked in confusion.
"I misunderstood that if you have a confidante, your Princess Yanbei will become a thing of yesterday." Looking at Xiao Jiu'an, who was wearing an ugly mask and could not suppress his arrogance, Ji Yunkai looked at the sky silently.
Why is the gap between people so big?
It is also a big mask, but Xiao Jiuan is more imposing and attractive than her when wearing such an ugly mask.
Sure enough, there is a kind of person who is born to be the focus of the crowd, regardless of appearance or temperament, such as Xiao Jiuan.
"I don't need a confidant, and I'm not afraid of people's words." It's enough for him to have a beauty, and he doesn't need many. It's good to have just one.
After all, women are such troublesome creatures. One Ji Yunkai is enough to give him a headache. One more Ji Yunkai will be too much for him to handle.
Xiao Jiuan got on his horse and saw that Ji Yunkai had not made any move, so he said, "Can't you get up? Do you want my help?"
"No need." Ji Yunkai quickly refused.
She was just thinking, what did Xiao Jiuan mean when he said he didn't need a confidant?
There was nothing wrong with these words, but she always felt that Xiao Jiuan had a deep meaning when he said these words, especially the second half, but...
