Chapter 153: Eating From the Inside and Betraying the Outside, Conflicts Escalate
At this time, Zhao Ya naturally saw the sudden appearance of the Dayan cavalry.
Their large troops were stationed collectively under the city wall. Looking from a distance, they looked like a black cloud, formidable.
Looking at this scene, Zhao Ya's face was calm, neither sad nor happy.
But just because he can keep his composure, doesn't mean that others can too.
"Brother, what should we do?"
"Yes, senior brother, we finally repelled the beast tide, but then these cavalry came. What do they mean?"
People were talking a lot, and the team was in a commotion.
Because any fool can see that this cavalry definitely has no good intentions when it appears at this time.
"Don't panic yet, the other side has sent people over, don't mess up your position." Zhao Ya said in a deep voice.
The crowd gradually quieted down.
Looking at the small group of cavalry that was speeding towards them, Zhao Ya whispered to Shang Tiefeng and Jin Zhenming beside him.
"Two seniors, it seems that some of you can't hold it any longer and plan to take advantage of this opportunity."
Shang Tiefeng did not speak, but Jin Zhenming sneered gloomily.
"The timing is really perfect. They came just after we repelled the beast tide. But it's not that easy to take advantage. We must first pass the level of my Guangrui Martial Arts School."
Although he was severely injured, Jin Zhenming still acted very tough.
Just like the horizontal refining method he practiced, it was as strong as ever.
Shang Tiefeng suddenly sighed quietly.
"It's Yuan Chenfeng!"
In fact, he didn't need to say anything, Zhao Ya and everyone had already seen it.
Among the galloping cavalry, the tall middle-aged man at the front was none other than Yuan Chenfeng, the owner of Chenfeng Martial Arts School.
As soon as I saw him, many questions were solved.
For example, why was there no sign of his Chenfeng Martial Arts School from beginning to end in this county defense battle?
For example, it was clear that Shang Jingchuan had already understood the stakes and would never dare to provoke the cavalry again. So who tipped them off and invited them here?
There is no doubt that the answer falls entirely on Yuan Chenfeng.
Thinking of this, many people looked at Yuan Chenfeng with extremely unkind eyes.
Although Yuan Chenfeng had some shortcomings in the past, he was still a martial artist and a comrade in the same trench, so no one cared too much about it.
Now what Yuan Chenfeng has done has touched the bottom line.
It was tantamount to openly betraying all the martial arts colleagues in the county and city.
This is of a bad nature.
Under this hostile gaze, this small group of cavalry suddenly pulled their reins and stopped in front of everyone.
Then I saw Yuan Chenfeng sitting on the horse, smiling at everyone and cupping his hands.
"Master Shang, Master Jin, and all of you, thank you for your hard work!"
No one responded.
Only Jin Zhenming snorted coldly from his nostrils.
The atmosphere seemed very awkward.
But Yuan Chenfeng didn't take it seriously at all, and the smile on his face didn't even change. Then he turned his attention to Zhao Ya and pretended to be surprised.
"Oh, isn't this Brother Lu? What's wrong with him? Is he injured?"
Zhao Ya said calmly: "Don't worry, Master Yuan. My master is only temporarily out of strength and not injured."
"Oh, that's it." Yuan Chenfeng sighed with emotion, "It seems that this battle was really tragic, but fortunately, from today on, the county has Commander Wei's cavalry guard, so you can all sleep peacefully. "Sleep."
After hearing his words, many people had angry looks on their faces.
Jin Zhenming even sneered.
"Yuan Chenfeng, I just thought you were petty and narrow-minded before. Now I realize that I was blind and didn't realize that you are such a wolf-hearted person."
This rebuke was merciless, but instead of being annoyed, Yuan Chenfeng showed a proud smile.
In his opinion, the angrier Shang Tiefeng, Jin Zhenming and others became, the more it proved that he was right in taking this step.
But he didn't forget to behave well when he got an advantage.
"What you said, Master Jin, is wrong. I know that you and everyone present have some misunderstandings about me, but in fact, I am also doing this for the people of the city. After all, if the beasts cannot be resisted by then, the herd enters the city. , Aren’t it the ordinary people who suffer the consequences?”
Yuan Chenfeng said with a look of concern for the country and the people.
"Well said!" Jin Zhenming sneered, and then asked: "Then let me ask you, since you and Wei Hongbin are so worried about the country and the people, where were you when the beasts besieged the city?"
"Where were you when the birds attacked the tower?"
"Where were you when we besieged the giant beast that was the leader of this beast tide?"
"Now that the giant beast is dead and the tide of beasts has receded, you jumped out and kept saying that it was for the sake of the people of the city. Yuan Chenfeng, don't you feel ashamed when you say this?"
Zhao Ya felt happy when he heard it, and couldn't help but secretly praise it, "Well done."
This Jin Zhenming's temper is obviously different from his masters Lu Dingtai and Shang Tiefeng.
Although Lu Dingtai also had a hot temper, he was arrogant. When faced with such insults, he would only take action and not even bother to curse.
Not to mention Shang Tiefeng, he is considered the most easygoing among the four martial arts masters. In the words of his apprentice Nie Jingnian, he is too indecisive.
Jin Zhenming, on the other hand, has a straightforward temper and hates evil very much. He will never hide anything he wants to say and say it on the spot.
really.
Even if Yuan Chenfeng was thick-skinned, he still felt a little embarrassed after being scolded by Jin Zhenming.
"Jin Zhenming, don't push your luck. To tell you the truth, Commander Wei is here to protect the people of the city. Now he has moved into the county governor's office. If you have anything to say, you can go to him to ask. What's the point of yelling at me here?"
"I'm just yelling at you, so what? You're a dog slave who betrays his martial arts colleagues. If you hadn't tipped off and spread rumors, how could Wei Hongbin bring people here? I feel ashamed to be on the same level with someone like you!" Jin Zhenming became even more anxious when he heard it, and jumped up and down and scolded.
Yuan Chenfeng was completely embarrassed now.
After all, the eyes of the cavalry behind him were all on him.
He sneered and said, "Jin Zhenming, don't ask for trouble. You are seriously injured now. It will only take me two moves to kill you."
"Haha, okay, then come on, I want to see if your palm can really turn the sky upside down!" Jin Zhenming was not afraid at all.
Yuan Chenfeng's face was gloomy, and he raised his whip and was about to speak.
At this moment, Lu Dingtai, who had been lying on Zhao Ya's back, had woken up at some point and said in a deep voice: "Yuan Chenfeng, do you believe that if you whip me with this whip, I will make sure you don't see the sun tomorrow."
His words were full of energy, and there was no sign of injury at all.
Not only that, while speaking, Lu Dingtai jumped off Zhao Ya's back and looked at Yuan Chenfeng with a bad face.
Yuan Chenfeng trembled slightly, and a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.
In the entire county city, he was most afraid of Lu Dingtai.
Although Jin Zhenming has a hot temper, he is brave but not wise. He has a sharp tongue but a soft heart. He can talk harshly but cannot really do anything.
But Lu Dingtai is different.
This person looks kind but is cruel. Although he looks happy on the surface, he will really kill you if you really make him angry.
In addition, his cultivation and realm are the highest among the four martial arts masters, so Yuan Chenfeng has always been quite afraid of Lu Dingtai.
This is also the reason why Zhao Ya beat up two of his disciples, but he did not dare to retaliate privately.
Because that would really kill people.
Today is no exception.
After hearing what Lu Dingtai said, Yuan Chenfeng's face was uncertain, and he finally snorted coldly.
"Lu Dingtai, I will let you be arrogant again today. After entering the city, with Commander Wei in charge, I wonder if you dare to do this again."
After saying that, he turned his horse's head and led this small group of cavalrymen away.
As soon as he left, Lu Dingtai's spirit collapsed.
His face was as pale as a piece of white paper, and his body swayed for a while, almost falling down.
Zhao Ya hurried forward to support him.
"Let's go back to the martial arts hall first!" Lu Dingtai ordered in a deep voice.
"Understood!"
Everyone hurried back to the city.
As soon as they entered the city, they found something strange.
They saw several cavalry teams patrolling the streets.
Many martial arts hall disciples stood on the street, glaring at these cavalrymen, but dared not speak, and the atmosphere seemed very depressing.
When they saw Zhao Ya and others, these martial arts hall disciples seemed to have seen the backbone, and they all came to greet them.
"Master Lu!"
"Master Shang!"
"Brother Zhao!"
The voices of greetings continued.
Lu Dingtai nodded slightly, but did not speak, and Zhao Ya greeted them for him.
"Brother Zhao, what do you think we should do? These cavalrymen actually entered the city when the beast tide just retreated and the defense was empty. What exactly do they want to do?" Someone asked in a low voice.
Zhao Ya's expression did not change, but he said coldly: "Which city gate did they enter the city from?"
Many people looked at each other, no one knew which city gate these cavalrymen came in from.
At this moment, a small man squeezed out of the crowd and clasped his fists to Zhao Ya.
"I know, it's the South Gate! At that time, Brother Nie from Renyong Martial Arts Hall was guarding the South Gate, but later he was injured, so several warriors from Baibu Martial Arts Hall were in charge."
"Later, the beast tide was fierce, and several brothers from Baibu Martial Arts Hall could not resist it. At this time, Yu Guizhi from Chenfeng Martial Arts Hall suddenly appeared and said that she would help defend the city. At that time, people did not doubt him and believed him, but they did not expect that this bitch would quietly open the city gate when the beast tide retreated and let these cavalrymen enter the city."
This person gave a detailed introduction to the situation.
Zhao Ya nodded after listening, "Thank you for telling me, what's your name?"
"Brother Zhao, you are too polite. We are all martial arts colleagues. My name is Bai Shilai, and I am a disciple of Zhenshan Boxing Gym."
Bai Shilai.
Zhao Ya secretly memorized this name.
Because this little guy can remember these insignificant situations so clearly in this chaotic situation, and even explain the ins and outs of them clearly, it can be seen that he is a talent.
Bai Shilai was very excited and was about to say something else.
At this time, a team of cavalry rode over, and the leader waved the whip and said: "No gathering or staying on the street, quickly disperse, otherwise you will be whipped."
The faces of the warriors showed anger when they heard this.
You know, almost all of these warriors present participated in the beast tide blocking battle just now. They should have been heroes returning with honors, but they didn't expect to be treated as criminals by these cavalry.
"Who do you think you are? When I was fighting those strange beasts on the tower just now, why didn't I see you waving your whip to show off your power?" A hot-tempered warrior cursed.
The cavalryman's face darkened when he heard it, and he didn't answer. He swung the whip in his hand and whipped the person who was talking.
Many people's faces changed when he started to fight.
Because judging from the skills of this cavalryman, he was at least in the third realm.
The whip came whistling, and if this whip hit the person who was talking, he would lose a piece of meat.
At this moment, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed the whip tip in the air in a split second.
"Huh?" The cavalryman was stunned, obviously not expecting that someone could actually grab the whip tip.
Then he wanted to grab the whip.
At this moment, the hand holding the whip tip exerted a little force, and the cavalryman felt a huge force coming, and fell off the horse with a plop.
"You..."
The cavalryman was about to yell, and at the same time, the cavalrymen under him also drew their weapons and wanted to fight.
At the same time, a foot stepped on his head, and then Zhao Ya said calmly.
"Don't move, if anyone dares to move, I will crush his head."
