Chapter 479 - 80

362  Thinking of this, he came to Chen Jie's side and deliberately raised his voice: "Jiu Si, look at our Nan Gang Leader. He is usually very majestic, but when he kneels down, he looks like a pug. Hahaha..."

  Um!

  Nan Batian became furious upon hearing this, and stared at Old Monster Liu with murderous intent in his eyes.

  If you dare to call me a dog, I will kill you!

  Chen Jie knew that Old Monster Liu was deliberately humiliating Nan Batian, so he also said: "Boss Liu, you are really good at associating. Now that you put it that way, it really seems to be similar!"

  "Are you two tired of living?"

  Nan Batian couldn't bear it any longer. Chen Jie looked at Nan Batian and said, "Why can't you bear it anymore? If you don't accept it, get up. Gang Leader Liu and I are willing to spar with you."

  Nan Batian fell silent after hearing that. He was very arrogant, but without using his trump card, he could not beat the combined forces of Chen Jie and Liu Laoguai. As for his trump card, he did not want to use it yet as it was to save his life.

  At this time, he endured the ridicule behind him, suppressed all his anger, and ignored the ridicule of Old Monster Liu behind him.

  He straightened his body, saluted with both hands and said: "Brothers, have a safe journey. I am the Southern Tyrant and I am sorry for all of you today, but I am also here to share the worries of the court. I hope all of you will have a safe journey to the underworld. Don't blame me. I am bringing 700 brothers with me to kowtow to you and have a safe journey!"

  After saying this, he banged his head three times at the coffin. Qin Ying and others behind him also shouted, "Rest in peace."

  Then he kowtowed three times following Nan Batian.

  For a moment, he actually regained a lot of points in people's impression of him. At least he gained points for being brave and responsible.

  Chen Jie watched all this with a slightly focused gaze, and there was a hint of solemnity in his eyes. This Nan Batian was indeed a difficult character. He was definitely not someone who could be easily dealt with since he had been in Mianshui County for so many years. Just from his previous words, it could be seen that he was shrewd and was definitely not a stupid person.

  Thinking of this, Chen Jie turned his head and looked at the twenty-eight large coffins, and silently said in his heart, "Brothers, have a safe journey. Nan Batian kowtows to you, and I will avenge you bit by bit."

  Thinking of this, Chen Jie waved to Xiaohu and said, "Xiaohu, take the brothers to re-spiel and send the brothers on their way."

  After hearing this, Xiaohu immediately had the coffin put away again and nailed shut.

  At this time, Chen Jie bowed to Yelu and asked, "My Lord, do you have anything else to say?"

  Yelu heard this and said, "No more, please do as you please."

  Chen Jie thanked Yelu again, then waved to the brothers of the White Tiger Hall and said, "Lift the coffin and go!"

  As soon as he finished speaking, Si Xi shouted, "Blow it up, fight it, and set off."

  After hearing this, the band immediately started beating, and with the sound of funeral music, the team headed towards Qingshankou, with people scattering copper coins on the way.

  [Money opens the way, big ghosts and small ghosts, please don't make things difficult for my brothers! ]

  …

  Watching the people walk away, Nan Batian stood up from the ground. At this time, Yelu rode up to his side and said, "Nan Batian, is this the great harvest you promised so much? Where are the weapons? Where are the Zoroastrian demons?"

  Nan Batian was filled with rage at this time, with nowhere to vent it. When he heard Yelu's words, he looked up suddenly and wanted to say something foul, but he was frightened back by Yelu's eyes. He immediately regained his senses, and reason told him that Yelu was someone he could not afford to offend.

  Nan Batian suppressed his humiliation and anger, looked at Yelu and said, "Master Yelu, this is a trap set by Chen Jiusi. He deliberately harmed me just to force me to kowtow!"

  Yelu glanced at Nan Batian and said, "If you didn't want to kill him, why did you fall for it? Now, Chen Jiusi didn't collude with the Zoroastrianism, and you made such a big mess. The whole Mianshui County was thrown into chaos by you. You just pray that the Zoroastrianism doesn't do anything weird during this period, otherwise..."

  Yelu didn't finish his words, but Nan Batian understood them. Nan Batian looked ugly. "My goodness, I went through life and death for you, not only did I abandon my dignity, but you also want to abandon me and let me bear all the consequences. You are so cruel!"

  Thinking of this, Nan Batian felt anger, grievance, and humiliation all gathered together in his heart, and he only wanted to say: "It's really hard for me!"

  While the two were talking, they suddenly saw a cavalryman in the distance urging his horse to run towards them frantically, shouting as he ran: "Sir, it's bad, it's bad..."

  Hearing this, Yelu frowned, and Qimuge, who was not far away, immediately rode his horse towards the younger brother and asked, "What happened?"

  At this time, Yelu also came over and looked at the scout, who was almost exhausted from running and was covered in sweat. When he heard the question, he immediately said, "East Gate, there's something wrong at the East Gate!"

  "East City Gate? What happened to the East City Gate?"

  Yelu frowned and asked. After hearing this, the scout said, "The Zoroastrian demons suddenly attacked the east gate. Now the gate has been broken and the demons have left!"

  "What?!"

  Yelu's expression suddenly turned extremely ugly. He stared at the scout and said, "Did you see clearly? Is it a demon from the Zoroastrianism?"

  "I have seen clearly that they are the Zoroastrian demons. They have red cloths tied on their heads, which makes them easy to identify. By the way, sir, the leader of the Zoroastrian demons is Sun Tiechui from the blacksmith shop. He is a Zoroastrian."

  "ah?"

  Yelu's face turned pale when he heard this. The scout continued, "They attacked the East Gate. It took less than a cup of tea for the East Gate to be breached!"

  "Wait, how many of them are there?"

  Yelu asked, and the scout replied, "More than a hundred people."

  "Over a hundred people broke through the East Gate in just a cup of tea? Where are the guards at the East Gate? Are they all dead?"

  Yelu was completely furious, and the scout said with a bitter face: "Sir, there is no one guarding the east gate. There are only a dozen court officials. Sun Tiechui and his men broke it open in one go. If they hadn't moved so slowly, it wouldn't have taken even a cup of tea!"

  "The east gate is unguarded?"

  Yelu's face changed drastically and then he suddenly thought of something. He turned to look at Nan Batian.

  The East Gate was guarded by this Nan Batian. He actually sent all 700 guards to capture Chen Jiusi!

  When Yelu thought of this, his eyes turned red. He looked at Nan Batian and said, "You, you wait!"

  Nan Batian's face also turned pale. Who could have thought that the Zoroastrian Church would take advantage of the loophole at this time? Wait, is the other party taking advantage of the loophole?

  Or say?

  Nan Batian's face looked extremely ugly. Could this also be a conspiracy designed by Chen Jiusi?

  "Master Yelu, I..."

  Yelu had no time to pay attention to him at this time. He just urged the horse under his crotch, and the horse neighed repeatedly. Then Yelu waved his hand and said, "Everyone follow me to the east gate. We must not let these Zoroastrian monsters escape!"

  "yes!"

  After hearing Yelu's words, five hundred cavalrymen immediately set off and rushed towards the east gate, ready to block Sun Tiechui and others.

  But he was overthinking. If Sun Tiechui and others were transporting military equipment, they couldn't move very fast. But they were empty-handed. As long as they left the city, they would be like dragons swimming in the sea. Who could catch them?

  Therefore, Yelu's trip was doomed to fail.

  Watching Yelu walking away, Nan Batian's face became gloomy. He was in big trouble this time. Not only did he fail to catch Chen Jiusi's handle, but he also got himself involved. He kowtowed three times, feeling completely humiliated.

  He thought that the matter was over, but good fortune never comes alone, and misfortune never comes singly. Now there are Zoroastrians who have broken through his defense line and rushed out of the city, and the reason is that he had transferred his troops away in order to capture Chen Jiusi.

  This is just rubbing salt into one's own wounds.

  At this time, you must completely kill yourself.

  Nan Batian thought about it and turned around to see Tang Ziyue, with a somewhat unfriendly look in his eyes. It was all his fault. He was the one who said everything that happened today. He planned everything for him. If he was not sure that he would not betray him, he would really suspect that he was Chen Jiusi's spy.

  Thinking about this, he looked at Tang Ziyue and said, "Mr. Tang, do you have anything to say about this situation? Didn't you say that Chen Jiusi wanted to use a coffin to transport the military equipment out of the city? Now, how do you explain it?"

  When Tang Ziyue was questioned by Nan Batian, his face looked very ugly. It was not because he was questioned, nor because he was scolded by Nan Batian, but because he felt that his IQ was crushed by Chen Jie, and it seemed that everything he thought of was what Chen Jie wanted him to think.

  Tang Ziyue was a very conceited person. He had never been defeated by anyone in terms of IQ, and he didn't think he would lose to Chen Jiusi. Last time in the woods, he was crushed by Chen Jie's IQ, and it was also at that time that he made up his mind to seek an explanation for his IQ.

  That's why he had been targeting Chen Jie and had come up with many strategies. He thought that he could definitely pin Chen Jie to the ground this time, but he didn't expect that this was actually a trap carefully set up by Chen Jie.

  He lost this round.

  "I'm sorry, Boss. I didn't expect Chen Jiusi to be like this..."

  After hearing what Tang Ziyue said, Nan Batian sighed and patted him on the shoulder, but did not pursue the matter.

  He knew Tang Ziyue's loyalty, and the rapid development of the Fishing Gang over the years was entirely inseparable from Tang Ziyue's planning. Nan Batian really admired Tang Ziyue.

  Therefore, even though he hurt himself badly this time, Nan Batian still did not blame Tang Ziyue for this incident.

  As long as the counsellor planned carefully, he should not be blamed for his mistakes.

  This was Nan Batian's attitude, but Nan Batian didn't blame him. Qin Ying on the side shouted angrily, "Tang Ziyue, what on earth did you do? Don't you claim to be a master of strategy every day? How come Chen Jiusi has designed you into this situation today? Not only did he not find the weapons, but he also forced us all to kowtow to the coffin three times, and we have become the laughing stock of Mianshui County."

  "And the gang leader wanted to take away all the people from the East City Gate. Why didn't you stop him? How can you be a white paper fan? When this is over, how are you going to explain to Lord Yelu? Will Lord Yelu think that we deliberately let the Zoroastrians go?"

  Qin Ying questioned Tang Ziyue angrily.

  Nan Batian was also helpless after hearing this. This time he really lost both his wife and his army. This time he suffered a huge loss.

  Qin Ying angrily accused Tang Ziyue at this time, but Tang Ziyue did not say much. He just let Qin Ying accuse him without saying a word to comfort himself.

  Nan Batian waved his hands and said, "Okay, this matter is not all Mr. Tang's fault. We have fallen into Chen Jie's poisonous scheme. The current plan is not to pursue who is responsible, but how to minimize the impact of this incident on us."

  "We have figured out a solution!"

  Qin Ying looked at Nan Batian and said, "Boss, what else can we do?"

  Nan Batian was silent for a moment and said, "It is definitely impossible to catch Chen Jiusi now. If we want Lord Yelu to calm down and exempt us from punishment, there is only one way to go."

  "What road?"

  Qin Ying looked towards Nan Batian.

  Nan Batian said: "Finding the weapons of the Mulan people is a concern for Lord Yelu. If we help Lord Yelu get rid of this concern, we can be exempted from punishment and even regain Lord Yelu's trust and turn the disadvantage around."

  Qin Ying heard this and said, "Where can we find the weapons?"

  Nan Batian looked at Tang Ziyue and asked, "What do you think, Mr. Tang?"

  After hearing this, Tang Ziyue said, "What the gang leader said is absolutely right. The only way to break the impasse is to find the weapons. However, if we want to find the weapons, we still need to analyze it."

  Tang Ziyue said as he picked up a branch from the ground.

  Then he drew a square on the ground and said, "First of all, we can confirm that this batch of weapons is definitely in the city. Since it is in the city, we can narrow down the scope."

  "They have to find a way to transport it out. Usually the city gates are strictly guarded, so there is no chance at all. And they are in a hurry, so they have to make a fuss at today's funeral."

  "We have just checked Chen Jiusi's coffins. There are no weapons in them. That means they did not leave the city from the South Gate!"

  Tang Ziyue drew a cross at the south gate of the square, ruling out the south gate.

  "Just now, the scouts reported that the Zoroastrians left the city from the east gate, but they did not say that they carried a large amount of weapons. In other words, this is actually an ambush. The purpose is to lure people over there, thereby reducing the attraction of other places. There must be no problems along the way."

  Tang Ziyue said: "But the strange thing is, why did Sun Tiechui want to expose himself?"

  Tang Ziyue thought of a strange question. Sun Tiechui could have charged out with his face covered, but he was recognized by the scout. There seemed to be something wrong here!

  Thinking this way, Tang Ziyue soon gave up further investigation and thought for a while and said, "But the East Gate did not transport the weapons out of the city, which means that the weapons must still be in the city, but where is it?"

  Tang Ziyue took a branch and drew a cross at the East City Gate.

  After listening to Tang Ziyue's analysis, Nan Batian said: "So Mr. Tang, where is this weapon hidden? Could it be hidden in Sun Tiechui's blacksmith shop?"

  Tang Ziyue shook his head and said, "Impossible. If he was hiding in the blacksmith shop, Sun Tiechui would not show his face. He showed his face in the hope that someone would recognize him. Why did he want someone to recognize him?"

  Tang Ziyue frowned, feeling that there seemed to be a big pit here.
