Many people saw the arrival of King Xigui.
"Zhou... Prime Minister Zhou..." A guard also saw this scene and looked back timidly at Zhou Ziru. The next second, a flash of sword light flashed, and the guard's head flew high, but his eyes were still staring at Zhou Ziru, full of fear.
Zhou Ziru slowly lowered his head, not daring to look at those eyes...
As King Xigui led the army to arrive, the shouts of killing around him gradually became muffled. Many Yulin soldiers even dropped their weapons on their own initiative, quietly threw away the ears collected in their arms, and hid aside.
He who knows the current affairs is a hero, everyone knows this truth...
But not everyone agrees!
The two Yulin troops acted in perfect harmony. One left and one on the right rushed towards King Xigui. One slashed the horse, and the other stabbed the man with a spear. The division of labor was clear, and they came straight towards King Xigui.
King Xigui sat still, and two war horses rushed out from both sides, as fast as the wind and as fast as fire. The two spears were like wild snakes spitting messages, piercing the two Yulin soldiers directly. They raised them high and whipped them. On the side. Seeing that the two Yulin soldiers were dead, he turned his horse's head and returned to the military formation from both sides of King Xigui, one on the left and the other on the right.
"Young man from the Zhou family! Why don't you come over and kneel down when you see me? Huh?" King Xigui shouted loudly. He leisurely pulled the reins lightly and headed in the direction of Zhou Ziru.
Zhou Ziru looked at the leisurely King Xigui without saying a word, turned back to the carriage, and grabbed his heirloom sword: "Unexpectedly, grandpa wanted to pass down the sword to the family, but he only passed it down. Three generations…”
This sword was not used against Yi Xiaodao at that time, but now it seems that it may be the right choice.
"Your Majesty, you can't have no one around you..." The reputation of the Zhou family and his own ambitions all sounded so ridiculous now. Zhou Ziru threw them behind him and only thought of the man sitting alone on the throne thousands of miles away. The young man on board.
The guards around him had been killed to pieces. Although the cavalry on the opposite side also paid a tragic price, victory or defeat was already determined. The white-haired old man walking over step by step held victory or defeat in his hands. .
"Conquering Nanhuai, Fu Donglu, and suppressing Chuxiang. I thought that this generation of the Zhou family would produce some extraordinary figure, but I didn't expect that it would just be like this. I am very disappointed!" King Xigui shook his head and sighed, Looking at it like that, it seems really sad.
"Mr. Wu, let's do it." King Xigui suddenly stopped, reined in his horse slowly and turned around, not looking here. There was no more suspense.
Mr. Wu pulled the reins, looked at Zhou Ziru, and murmured in a low voice: "I'm offended!" His horse leapt over, his sword shining brightly, and he took only the head.
The sword stopped, missing by a few inches. However, this difference of a few inches is not for Zhou Ziru, but for someone else.
"The... eldest son..." Mr. Wu was dumbfounded. Fortunately, he stopped his hand in time, otherwise the person who flew up would be the head of Zou Wen, the eldest son of Xigui.
"Cut, why don't you chop?" The sword was already placed on his shoulder, but Zou Wen didn't even frown, but looked at Mr. Wu and said coldly. No one knew where he came from or where he came from. They only knew that he was standing in front of Zhou Ziru at this time and blocked the sword for Zhou Ziru.
Mr. Wu quickly withdrew his sword and jumped to the ground. He knelt down in the tunnel with one hand and said, "My lord, please forgive me!" The surrounding cavalrymen also hurriedly dismounted, but did not all kneel down. They were wary of the few remaining soldiers around Zhou Ziru. Guards.
"Mr. Wu, why don't you kill him? You haven't answered me yet." Zou Wen strode forward, looking down at Mr. Wu, with a trace of hatred, a trace of disgust, and a trace of pity in his eyes.
"The villain... was only acting on the orders of the prince..." Mr. Wu is not stupid and will not resist on his own. Anyway, King Xigui just ordered him to take action, and everyone present heard it. He didn't know where the eldest son was at that time, but he didn't believe it if he didn't hear King Xigui's order.
Zou Wen looked at his broken sleeves and frowned even more: "You have harmed your fourth brother and you want to kill me today? You said that my father ordered me to kill my fourth brother?"
Mr. Wu lowered his head and said nothing, and the rest of the Xigui soldiers did not dare to say a word. Of the four sons of King Xigui, only this one is left now. This will be the future King Xigui. Even though he is just the crown prince of Xigui now, who in Xigui dares to be presumptuous in front of him?
"If nothing happens, eldest son, I will leave first." Mr. Wu looked a little embarrassed, and after holding it in for a long time, he only said this, and then he got up and left.
"Let's go? Huh, I want to see where you can go!" Zou Wen stood in front of Zhou Ziru, changing his usual elegant attitude, and now facing Mr. Wu, he was quite unyielding. .
"Do you think there is still room for you in this world?" Zou Wen looked at Mr. Wu's back and continued to chatter: "You swung your sword and slashed at Daqi Wenxiang. It was obvious to everyone present. From now on, what will you do to Mr. Wu?" As far as the court is concerned, he has committed a capital crime and is already a dispensable dead person."
"Want to stay in Xigui to save your life? Wait a hundred years after my father, I will be the king of Xigui. You killed your fourth brother and now you want to kill me. How brave are you! Wash your neck and prepare to use it. Kill it!"
Zhou Ziru also looked at Zou Wen in surprise. Although he didn't have much interaction with him, his impression was that he was gentle, humble and polite. He had never been as aggressive as he is today.
Mr. Wu turned around, took a deep breath, and said slowly: "What happened to the Fourth Young Master is due to the villain's negligence. The villain has never thought of doing anything bad to the West Young Master, the prince, or the eldest young master..."
"I went to the capital and lost my fourth brother, and now I say that I have never thought of harming us. You only want me to take power, and there is no place for your Wu family in Xigui!" Zou Wen's face was full of anger, and the rest None of the Xigui army had seen him look like this, and all of them were too frightened to speak.
Mr. Wu turned around and walked slowly to Zou Wen's side. He held the sword in both hands and handed it over: "This sword was given by the prince. Now that it is returned to the eldest son, it is considered to be the original owner. Please keep it well." "
Zou Wen took the sword with one hand and still looked at Mr. Wu coldly without moving a bit.
Mr. Wu raised his head, saw Zou Wen's cold eyes, smiled slightly, and whispered: "Wu knows the eldest son's kindness. In the next life, he will work as a cow or a horse to repay the eldest son."
When Mr. Wu said this, Zou Wen became a little nervous. Was he seen through?
Mr. Wu casually picked up a long knife from the ground and put it on his shoulder: "I am really ashamed of King Xigui and the Zou family. I am willing to commit suicide in front of the eldest son today to apologize for his sin!" When he was done, he drew the long knife sharply and blood splattered everywhere.
Mr. Wu's force was too great, and blood spurted out. Seeing that he was helpless, his body slowly fell to the ground, and his eyes gradually became blurred.
"Fourth Young Master..." In a daze, Mr. Wu seemed to see the Fourth Young Master, lying on the ground like himself, being beaten and chased.
The last time he lay on the ground like this was three years ago, when he was still in the capital... The situation was exactly the same as now... Seeing the Fourth Young Master being beaten, Mr. Wu wanted to reach out to his good apprentice, but he couldn't reach him. .
Finally, Mr. Wu turned over and finally touched the Fourth Young Master's arm. This time he held it tightly in his hand and refused to let go without saying anything. The blood flowed faster, and the ground was red...
Zhou Ziru looked at Mr. Wu who was slowly losing his vitality, stepped forward and said, "Did you deliberately force him to death?"
"Well, he won't survive. His father doesn't believe him at all. Living in Xigui, he will sooner or later touch his father's evil side. It doesn't matter if he dies, at least he can save his family." Zou Wen said lightly. .
Zhou Ziru shook his head slightly: "Isn't it too early for you to do this now...I will soon become a prisoner of Xigui..." He was not pitying Mr. Wu, he was just talking about the matter.
"It's not too early. If I offend my father, I'm afraid it'll be too late to die..." Zou Wen obviously knew his father better.
"Wen'er! You're okay!" King Xigui heard something was wrong behind him. When he turned around and saw his eldest son come back from the dead, he was overjoyed and hurriedly ran over.
"Father." When Zou Wen saw King Xigui, he leaned down, but did not lower his eyes, but looked at King Xigui quietly.
King Xigui jumped off his horse and took two steps forward to get closer to his eldest son, but Zou Wen took two steps back instead.
King Xigui was confused: "Wen'er, what are you doing? Come here, dad, they don't dare to do anything to you!"
"Father, do you still remember how the second, third, and fourth brothers died?" Zou Wen had heard a lot of news in the Yulin Army.
King Xigui was stunned: "They..."
"Father, do you think... we can really defeat the imperial court?" Zou Wen lowered his head, as if he was also thinking about this issue.
King Xigui looked at his eldest son. The four sons were all from the same mother. From childhood to adulthood, he was the only one who looked nothing like himself. But looking at it today, although it doesn't look like me, it looks a bit like a motherfucker.
"Wen'er, what do you mean? What did the court say to you?" King Xigui couldn't help but ask.
Zou Wen suddenly raised his head and looked at King Xigui with firm eyes: "Father, we obviously can't win the court, but you still want to rebel. The second brother, the third brother, the fourth brother, and many other soldiers and the people all died tragically innocently, is this what you want to see, father?"
King Xigui looked at his eldest son blankly, looked at him quietly for a while, and slowly narrowed his shining old eyes.
"Yes! This is what I want to see! I want to see our Zou family, standing in the capital! overlooking the world!" King Xigui suddenly became furious and roared loudly.
Zou Wen showed a wry smile and nodded: "Okay... okay... our Zou family... overlooks the world. Dad... you might as well take a look at this first..." Zou Wen said as he took out the Xigui King's sword that he had just hidden behind his back. Hold the sword with both hands and draw the sword out of its sheath.
"Wen'er! What are you going to do!" King Xigui panicked.
"Dad, I'm leaving you unfilial son!" Zou Wen held the sword in both hands, and when he passed the sword, blood began to flow. Zou Wen, the eldest son of Xigui, fell limply, and Zhou Ziru, who was closest to him, didn't have time to help him.
"Wen'er!!" King Xigui shouted hoarsely, watching helplessly as his last son fell in front of him.
King Xigui knelt down and cried bitterly, his white hair flying messily in the air, his eyes were cloudy and no longer sparkling. This time, he seemed to have aged more than ten years, and his energy was exhausted...
