Chapter 118: End

Maybe that's the inescapable fate Fang Lang said!

No matter, since you have already agreed to something for others, it is impossible to break the contract.

However, she only agreed to the promise, but she never said when it would not be the case? Thinking about it, Shang Xiuxun sat calmly on the wooden chair and took a small sip of tea, thoughtfully.

After listening to what Fang Lang said, Song Yuzhi quickly said: "Now that this battle is over, we can't stay here for a long time. The Pegasus Ranch is already in our pocket, and we have to get to Jingling as soon as possible."

When I went out, my father had already told me that if we wanted to dominate the world, apart from Pegasus Ranch, the other fortress must be Jingling! If you have enough time, you will definitely accept it.

However, this matter is simple to say.

You should know that Xiangyang is located at the confluence of various rivers beside the Han River. If you go down the river, you can reach Hannan, another smaller city, in one day, and reach Jingling in two days.

Since Yang Guang was killed by Yu Wenhua and Qi Bing, the situation in various places has intensified.

Those who were already hegemonic and proclaimed themselves kings and emperors took advantage of the situation to expand their territories. Those who were originally Sui officials or were adopting a wait-and-see attitude rose up one after another and became local forces to protect their urban and rural homes. Qian Duguan in Xiangyang is a typical example.

Fang Lang thought about it carefully and realized that what Song Yuzhi said did not make sense.

However, time is short, and I am afraid that Shang Xiuxun is no longer willing to go with them. But upon closer inspection, Shang Xiuxun was not one of those treacherous and treacherous people. However, it seems to be a bit overwhelming, and it seems that we have to discuss it with them.

He hasn't told Xu Ziling about this yet.

"Have you heard that Master Kou and Master Xu scared the Japanese pirates into fleeing in all directions? I don't know how they did it." A maid passed by outside the door, presumably with another maid. .

"Where, you didn't know that you were helping in the logistics today. I secretly went there to take a look. You didn't see them killing the enemy. Their eyes were red. If you didn't know, you thought they were killing my father's enemy."

Another maid sighed. Her voice was also much softer. After all, it was a serious crime for her to take a peek. If someone who shouldn't know knew about it, it would be enough for her to suffer.

However, almost nothing they said escaped Fang Lang's ears. Although he doesn't have the clairvoyance of Koo Zhong, he can spy on anything he wants to know as long as he exerts a little inner strength, but there is no need to do this on weekdays.

"Shh, keep your voice down! It's okay to let others listen. Let's go quickly. Auntie's work is not finished yet." As he said that, the hurried footsteps of the two maids reached Fang Lang's ears. Hey, why don't you say a few more words, so that you can save yourself some energy to explore where the two of them are now.

However, now that the two maids had spoken, the thieves were so frightened that they fled in all directions. He must have returned home in triumph. After thinking about their daily habits, he might have dragged Xu Ziling to have a drink. Hey, let's wait until tomorrow. Everyone is a little tired from what happened today. It's already dark now, so it's not appropriate to disturb others so late.

By the way, this is the shortest battle in history. The four major bandits had as many as 200,000 troops, while Shang Xiuxun's men and horses, even if counted in full, were only 100,000. This battle will be regarded as a good story in later generations.

Sure enough, Gao Zhong took Xu Ziling to the most famous Piaoxiang Restaurant in the town. On this day, everyone followed the owner's instructions and hid in their homes. Some people had already made plans to escape. But since the owner of the venue had already given the order, they did not dare to disobey Shang Xiuxun's order, so they had no choice but to wait at home.

However, except for those who are as timid as mice, there are still some bold people who dare to pop up and take a look.

It's okay if you don't look at it, but it's not surprising at first glance. I didn't expect that there were such brave soldiers in Shang Xiuxun's house. Since the two of them could scare off many Japanese pirates, this spread spread to ten, and spread to hundreds. After those Japanese pirates left. The affairs of Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling have been exposed all over by the people here, no. Whenever I go out for a drink, I get dragged along.

"Waiter, bring two jugs of wine. A plate of meat, hurry up!" Today was a great kill. Although it was already getting late, it didn't stop them from celebrating. After the thieves left, the nearby taverns and markets gradually returned to their normal state.

The bold waiter was the one who stuck his head out just now. Now that he had the opportunity to see the two of them, he naturally would not let go of the opportunity to talk to the hero at such a close distance. He quickly pulled the two of them to ask about the situation at that time. . Everyone around them gathered around with interest. When the shopkeeper saw the distinguished guest, he immediately went to serve him personally and put the best wine and meat in his store on the table of the two of them.

Kou Zhong found it difficult to refuse the warm welcome and there were so many people watching. So I had no choice but to recount what happened just now, which was somewhat embellished. Xu Ziling just listened silently, almost spitting out the wine that was brought to his mouth several times. Sometimes what Kou Zhong says seems a bit exaggerated.

Surrounded by a large group of people, Kou Zhong talked with these people for more than two hours.

Xu Ziling couldn't help but secretly sigh at Kou Zhong's ability to talk nonsense. He couldn't tell how he could talk for so long even though he could finish it in just a few words. What was even more strange was that the group of people actually listened with gusto. If Kou Zhong doesn't have that ambition, Xiang Bianxin would be a good choice as a storyteller. It's obvious that he is very talented!

At the third watch, there was almost no one on the road. Even the tavern just now was closed, and Xu Ziling seemed to be the only one left in the world, except for the already drunk Kou Zhong of course. Now I have to carry him back on my own

Go, if I had known, I wouldn't have let him drink so much just now. Now I am the one who is in trouble.

After finally carrying Kou Zhong back, Xu Ziling fell asleep from exhaustion as soon as he touched the bed. He was surprised that this kid Kou Zhong was so good at drinking. ..
