Chapter 228 Red Rain

Xiao Kai didn't expect Xiao Beiheng to act like this.

Originally, the Jingzhou Army under his command and Xiao Beiheng's Dingbei Army had almost the same strength, both with more than 30,000 men. But with Xiao Zhuo's 30,000 surrendered soldiers, his strength immediately increased to nearly 70,000, giving him an advantage over Xiao Beiheng.

He believed that his military strength was far superior to that of his opponent and that he had a famous sword to protect him, so he came to Xiao Beiheng's banquet. When he saw that Xiao Beiheng was only wearing a red robe and no armor or weapons, he naively believed that the other party would not harm him.

meaning.

When everything was going smoothly, Xiao Beiheng suddenly gave him a head-on blow. Not only was he asked to sacrifice Jingzhou, he was also asked to take his head.

Although he was angry, he didn't understand where Xiao Beiheng's confidence lay.

There was an army of 70,000 of his own outside the city, and he was heavily armored and carried a Yanque sword. Xiao Beiheng was unarmed, how could he have the guts to provoke him?

In short, this completely angered him, and he overturned the table desperately and pulled out the Yan Que Sword.

"Xiao Beiheng, die." He roared angrily and slashed at Xiao Beiheng with his sword.

Xiao Beiheng's eyes fell on the Yanque sword, which was as bright as autumn water. A trace of fear flashed in his eyes, and he stood up and retreated hastily.

The Yanque sword slashed down diagonally, almost grazing his clothes. It first cut the jade pendant hanging from his waist in half, and then divided the table in front of him into two. The dishes and drinks on the table

They slipped together and splashed everywhere.

When the generals of the Dingbei Army and the Jingzhou Army in the tent saw him, they also shouted and drew their swords one after another and started fighting together.

Xiao Kai missed with his first sword and was about to pursue him. Suddenly, his vision blurred and the strength in his body began to pour out like a flood.

"It's... it's poison!" he shouted in fear.

You were obviously very careful and brought the food and drinks yourself, so why did you still fall into Xiao Beiheng's trap?

This poison will not cause him pain, but it will make him gradually weak. When he is finally unable to swing the sword, he will be a lamb to the slaughter.

Xiao Kai raised his head and looked at Xiao Beiheng, who was standing opposite, looking at him with a look full of teasing, as if to say, why don't you be so careful.

In this situation, no matter how hot-headed he is, he knows that he has no choice but to leave. This is the headquarters of the Dingbei Army. It is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge in ten years. He will take advantage of the poison to take effect. He still has the strength to take advantage of this opportunity to fight out. When the time comes,

Just lead the army and come back to take revenge.

After making up his mind, he was about to turn around and charge out when the old man behind Xiao Beiheng swayed and stopped in front of him, waving his palm with one hand.

"Don't block the road." Xiao Kai swung Yan Que and slashed at the inconspicuous old man in front of him.

Even though his hair and beard were all white, the dry old man dared to block the road.

The old man lowered his body and quickly dodged the edge of his sword. His fingers flicked on his elbow. Xiao Kai felt that his whole arm was numb instantly. He could not hold Yan Que, and the old man snatched the sword away with his hand.

"Impossible." Xiao Kai was shocked.

The old man took away his Yanque sword with just one move. Although he was poisoned and his arms were weak, he couldn't believe that his sword could be snatched away in one move.

He was not a three-legged cat in Kung Fu, so it was completely obvious that this old man was extremely skilled. He was actually a master he had never seen in his life.

"Sure enough, Mr. Ji's sword never grows old," Xiao Beiheng laughed and clapped his hands, "He deserves to be the best swordsman in the world."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Kai immediately knew the identity of this old man.

Ji Zhong was the most famous swordsman in the Yan Dynasty at that time. His swordsmanship was superb. He was invited by Emperor Yongde to teach Xiao Zhuo swordsmanship in the palace with a large sum of money. Later, Xiao Zhuo was deposed and he disappeared without a trace. Unexpectedly, he was taken under Xiao Beiheng's command.

.

No wonder Xiao Beiheng dared not wear armor or weapons. It turned out that Ji Zhong was protecting him from behind.

Xiao Kai lost Yan Que and had no weapon in his hand. In a panic, he caught a glimpse of a table next to his hand, picked it up with one hand and threw it at Xiao Beiheng, and at the same time turned around and ran away.

Xiao Beiheng had already taken over Yan Que from Ji Zhong. Seeing Xiao Kai struggling with the trapped beast, he sneered, lit up his sword, and cut the flying table in half.

Taking advantage of this free time, Xiao Kai tore a gap in the tent and jumped into the rain outside. When the generals of the Jingzhou Army inside the tent saw that the general had run away, they also gathered at the torn gap in an attempt to fight with Xiao Kai.

Kai retreats together.

When the generals of the Dingbei Army were about to pursue him, Xiao Beiheng stopped them all and said, "Hold on, I have got my famous sword, it's time to test it."

He calmly pulled out a hair from his head, hung it on the edge of Yan Que's sword, and stared at it intently.

The generals of the Jingzhou Army took advantage of this moment and fled out of the gap one after another. The generals of the Dingbei Army shouted: "Your Highness, they have escaped!"

Xiao Beiheng turned a deaf ear and spread his fingers. His hair fell lightly, split into two on the edge of the Yanque Sword, and was swept away by the wind.

"It is indeed a good sword!" Ji Zhong sighed.

Xiao Beiheng laughed loudly, shook the Yanque sword, and rushed into the rain. A series of screams suddenly sounded outside the tent.

When Ji Zhong, Lin Kui and others came out with the generals of the Dingbei Army, more than ten generals of the Jingzhou Army had fallen into the rain. Blood spurted out from the severed limbs scattered on the ground, completely draining the rain from the ground.

It was dyed red, as if a red rain had just fallen.

Xiao Beiheng was walking towards Xiao Kai with his sword in hand. The rain kept hitting the Yanque sword, turning into strings of water droplets rolling down from the tip of the sword.

Xiao Kai had been stabbed in the right leg by Xiao Zhuo. He had not recovered yet, and was poisoned. He fell into the muddy water and retreated hastily. His hair was wet and stuck to his frightened face, making him look extremely embarrassed.

When he looked around, he saw that everyone on the left and right had been killed by Xiao Beiheng, except for one confidant. It was the one who had brought him food and drinks before.

"Send warning rockets quickly!" he shouted to his confidant at the top of his lungs.

This was his last resort to save his life. The confidant kept the rocket used to report the message. As soon as it was sent out, the Jingzhou Army in the city would know that he was in danger and would immediately come out to attack the Dingbei Army.

The confidant was unmoved and said slowly: "General, you still haven't figured out why you were poisoned?"

"It turns out it's you, it turns out..." Xiao Kai raised his finger in despair and pointed at that person tremblingly, "When did you betray me?"

Lin Kui walked up to Xiao Beiheng with an umbrella, opened it to cover him from the rain, and said with a smile: "Let me answer it for you. It was when Lin entered the city to make suggestions for the general, and this poison was also given to him by Lin."

his."

Xiao Kai remembered that when Yongwei City was exploded by Xiao Zhuo's gunpowder, Lin Kui came to the city and told him Xiao Zhuo's secret, and said that if he could not defeat Xiao Zhuo, this strategy could save his life or even kill him.

Xiao Zhuo.

He was quite grateful at the time. He never expected that while Lin Kui was helping him, he was already thinking about harming him.

It's really unimaginable.

He looked up and saw Xiao Beiheng walking slowly, and finally realized that with his meager brain, it was impossible to compete with the man in front of him.

"Wait a minute, wait a minute," he knelt on his knees and raised his hands to force a smile, "Beiheng, my surname is also Xiao, for the sake of us being brothers..."

Xiao Zhuo once said after knocking him down that they were brothers with the same surname and he would spare his life and be taken to the capital to be punished by Emperor Yongde.

He hoped that Xiao Beiheng could be as generous as Xiao Zhuo. As for Jingzhou and Liangzhou, just give them to Xiao Beiheng. When people are at the critical moment of life and death, they will find that no glory or wealth is as important as life.

It's a pity that he didn't understand until his death that Xiao Beiheng was not Xiao Zhuo.

A flash of sword light flashed, and Xiao Kai's huge head left his body, spun several times in the air, fell into the muddy puddle, and bounced twice more.

"Take Xiao Kai's head and go to Yongwei to give orders. If you don't surrender, no chickens or dogs will be left behind."

After Xiao Beiheng killed Xiao Kai, his face showed no expression. He only held the Yanque Sword upright in front of his eyes. He looked down from above and his affection overflowed, as if he were looking at his own child.

Ji Zhong stood next to him and also praised aloud: "I have read countless swords in my life. Now I can see a real famous sword. I have no regrets in this life."

Xiao Beiheng turned Yan Que sideways and gently wiped the sharp sword edge with his wet sleeves:

"Mr. Ji, since I have obtained the Yan Que Sword, can I fight Xiao Zhuo?"
