The Gouchen family has a long history and is a noble family in the Middle Ages. Two thousand years ago, they tried their best many times to enhance the family's strength into an ancient family.
However, several seemingly perfect opportunities failed in succession. Bao Taowei's intelligence showed that behind the Gou Chen family's successive failures, there were shadows from the imperial court and several other ancient families.
From the imperial court's point of view, it certainly does not want another uncontrolled force to appear under its rule.
From the perspective of the Taikoo family, of course, the fewer forces of the same level, the better.
Gou Chen Qianying's father, Gou Chen Guangbo, was a genius who had made great achievements in weapon making and strange formations. He might even become the first powerful person in the Gou Chen family to rule the country.
Because of his appearance, the Gouchen family's ambitions for the Taikoo family were once again ignited.
But when Gou Chen Qianying was forty years old, Gou Chen Guangbo, who was already in the early stage of Xuantong realm, was ambushed by a strong demon clan when he went out and never returned. Gou Chen Qianying urgently inherited the position of head of the family, which was smooth and stable.
until now.
Bao Taowei did not find out that he had any other sons.
Song Zheng put down the documents and waved Zeng Baihu out. He sat in front of the case, lightly tapping the pile of documents with his fingers, and began to think in his mind.
Suddenly, his ears moved. There was obviously no sound around him, but he heard something...
The Void God Town fell in the sky.
At dawn, Song Zheng ordered someone to call Li Sanyan, handed him something, and then said: "This matter... you are full of bad ideas, so it is best to do it."
Li Sanyan was excited, took the thing and kowtowed and left: "Thank you for your attention, Sir!"
Just as Li Baihu left, a dull loud noise suddenly came from Huzhou City, and then Lei Minzhi and Zeng Baihu rushed in in a panic: "Sir, something bad has happened!"
"The government office of the prefecture was captured, and a clever formation master cut off the connection between the official's seal of the prefecture and the city defense formation. The city defense formation is now theirs!"
"The Blazing Dragon was taken away by them, and there are people from them in our yamen!"
"It was done by those rioting rural martial arts cultivators."
Lei Minzhi stamped his feet repeatedly. He had reminded Song Zheng before that it was inappropriate for the two of them to open Huzhou City together. But Song Zheng remained indifferent. He pointed at Zhao Qianyong's military camp opposite and said, "Let's see what good things they can do."
patterns."
"Lord Song..." Lei Minzhi said anxiously: "Civil chaos has arisen, and life and death are at stake!"
Song Zheng smiled indifferently and said to him: "Master Lei, please believe that I am definitely more afraid of death than you."
When it was almost noon, urgent reports came from Bao Tao Guard:
"The rebels in Rao County are coming quickly under the leadership of the bandit leader. They are still 120 miles away from the state capital, Huzhou City."
"The Zhenfang City Army Lieutenant leads three thousand troops and thirty war beasts. We are still sixty miles away from the state capital."
"The Ancient Anchor Ship Gang rebelled against 30,000 thieves, and they are still 200 miles away from the state capital."
"Rebels from all walks of life in Kunzhou, Xizhou, Fuzhou, and Yanzhou are speeding up to kill each other. They are hundreds of miles away. It is estimated that they will join forces in Huzhou City at the latest this evening!"
Lei Minzhi's complexion would change with each message. Later, he could no longer stand still. He sat down on a chair, his face was pale, his lips were trembling, and he could not speak for a long time.
The rebels from five states gathered in Huzhou City. He, the governor of the imperial court, was torn into pieces, and there was not enough for the rebels to divide it among themselves.
This is the realm of cultivation, and the five states in the south of the Yangtze River are within easy reach for the strong cultivators. It will not take more than a day for the rebels to arrive one after another.
Song Zheng nodded: "Are they all here? Someone is commanding from behind."
Lei Minzhi came back to his senses with a shiver, glanced at Song Zheng, and then stretched out his old hand to grab Song Zheng's arm: "Master Song, do you have a plan?"
Lei Minzhi knew how capable he was. The situation in front of him was a desperate situation. He had no ability to reverse or even escape. Song Zheng was his last life-saving straw.
Song Zheng just said: "I'm not 100% sure either."
"..." Lei Minzhi let go of his hand, silently returned to his tent, laid out a jade tablet, and began to write a suicide note to his wife and daughter.
…
Less than half an hour later, the first group of rebels arrived and set up camp on the northeast side of Bao Tao Guard. Then came the second group, and the third group... Their camps seemed chaotic, but they killed Bao Tao Wei's camp one after another.
siege.
In the evening, the rebels from the five states finally gathered together. The wanton laughter of the rebel monks came from various camps, and vague voices mocking Song Zheng came down the wind.
"What bullshit is the first official in the five states?"
"Hongwu will perish, Song Zheng has no vision."
"It doesn't seem to be difficult to kill Song Zheng and seize Jiangnan."
Song Zheng stood at the door of the tent, looking at the dotted rebel camps and listening to the waves of the Xiaoshui River near Zhao Qianyong's camp. He put his hands behind his hands and remained silent. Lei Minzhi came out and stood side by side with him. He seemed to have calmed down.
Accepting the reality, he said calmly: "There are intact eggs under the nest, and the Hongwu disaster is coming. Imperial officials like you and me cannot escape the final disaster."
Song Zheng didn't speak, because there were roars coming from Zhao Qianyong's military camp.
The three-hundred-foot-long winged snake soared into the air with a cry of imaginary spirit, stretched its body, and transformed its powerful power into a storm of energy, sweeping towards the Bao Tao Guard's camp.
Ga——Gah——Gah——
The gate of Zhao Qianyong's camp was wide open, and four thousand soldiers were lined up neatly, with bright armor, and they were approaching the Bao Tao Guard's camp majestically.
Zhao Ganyong rose into the sky, and behind him were five Tianzun lieutenants who were in the early stage of the Mingtong Realm. He came to the front of the two armies from a high position.
As Zhao Ganyong left the camp, all the other camps were opened, and rebels from all walks of life arrived one after another, some in an orderly manner, and some in chaos, but the sheer number was mind-numbing.
"Song Zheng, Lei Minzhi!" Zhao Qianyong shouted: "Go out of the camp and die! After today, this Jiangnan will be our world."
Song Zheng looked back at Lei Minzhi. When things came to a close, Mr. Zhou Mu looked pale and trembling. Song Zheng smiled casually and walked out first.
"Follow!" Zeng Baihu roared with cold sweat on his head, and the nine hundred leopard guards took out their usual fierce aura and followed Song Zheng together. And the hundreds of government officials in the state government office,
They were already paralyzed in their respective military tents, unable to take a step forward.
Song Zheng came to the front of the battle and smiled at Zhao Qianyong: "Yours? It belongs to the Gou Chen family, right?"
A long laugh came, and Gou Chen Qianying walked out of the military camp. He was followed by Gou Chen Dongfeng and Master Qiao, and was protected by four ancestors.
"Song Zheng, you are very capable. If you are willing to submit to me, the Gou Chen family, and you will achieve great things in the future, I will make you a king with a different surname!" He sincerely solicited: "What is the reason why Hongwu Celestial Dynasty is worthy of allegiance? You must be better than me in this regard
See more clearly."
Song Zheng looked around and answered the question: "This is a desperate situation."
Gou Chen Qianying saw his thoughts and said: "Yes."
"I know how prejudiced the world is against you. They think that you are in a high position at a young age because of the elders in your family and Xiao Zhen. But I have carefully studied your words and deeds since you came to Huzhou City. From Huzhou to
Xizhou, you are meticulous every time and never make a mistake. You make plans before taking action, and you can always strike first."
"It's a pity that you lost this time. I have been preparing to seduce the Chen family for hundreds of years. How can you be our opponent when you just arrived? The medieval family has deep roots."
He said: "I understand your disappointment and unwillingness. This may not be entirely your failure. After all, your conditions are much worse than ours."
"But... you misjudged me, which is why you were defeated today!"
Gou Chen Qianying talks eloquently, with a calm tone to hide her pride.
He had endured for hundreds of years, made many sacrifices, planned at every level, and made arrangements everywhere. Finally, he was able to be proud and proud today, control the five states, and even be able to further sweep the world!
He should be proud!
Song Zheng thought of the words he deliberately said when he was arrested in front of his home. It turned out to be just for this moment.
But he just nodded and looked around with some disdain: "You just want to trap me with these rabble?"
Zhao Ganyong snorted coldly from the side and pressed down the 300-foot-foot-high Winged Snake Void Spirit with overwhelming force. He told Song Zheng with practical actions: Those rebels are a rabble, but he and his men are not!
Song Zheng smiled mockingly: "No need to show off, the mob is talking about you!" He pointed around again: "As for them, they are not even a mob, they are just chickens and dogs."
Zhao Qianyong was furious and strode towards Song Zheng in the air: "When death is imminent, all I have left is hard words."
Song Zheng cursed: "You bastard, why don't you do something about it? Do you need me to do something like this myself?"
The little insect was crawling out slowly, but it showed the master with practical actions: He hasn't eaten for a long time, his belly is flat, and he is so hungry that he has no strength.
After being scolded by the master, he immediately trembled and didn't dare to be lazy anymore. With a cry, he expanded hundreds of feet, fully manifesting his huge true body, and began to take on the shape of a dragon!
It was huge and rolling, with a ferocious look, turning up the scales on its body, each one like a sharp blade. Then it kept roaring, sizing up the situation, and still expressed to the master with practical actions: I am the vanguard of the master! Whoever dares to offend my master will kill me.
When the insects are released, I will feed them for you!
The Winged Snake Void Spirit is about the same size as a small insect. Not to mention that the Winged Snake is controlled by the dragon and is just an ethereal spirit and an entity. The Military Formation Void Spirit is even worse.
Zhao Ganyong himself was also a bully and afraid of the strong. He only dared to jump out and show off his power with the help of the virtual spirit of the military formation. As soon as Song Zheng's spiritual beast came out, the insect roared and knocked the winged snake virtual spirit away, and the light of the virtual spirit continued to explode.
It seems like I can't hold it any longer.
The little insect rushed forward with a roar, wrapped its tail around the virtual spirit, and bit it again.
This bloody mouth is more than ten feet long horizontally and more than thirty feet wide open. It can swallow even a small hillside in one bite.
Xu Ling took this bite and was immediately on the verge of death.
In the military formation, the four thousand soldiers were almost directly injured. More than half vomited blood and fell down. The remaining ones were staggering, their faces turned pale, and they also had internal injuries.
Zhao Ganyong roared, rushed up, and shouted: "Master, help me!"
