Chapter 735

The Tu Fang envoy left the venue.

Although the medical staff at the venue provided emergency treatment, the Tu Fang envoy still suffered irreparable heavy injuries.

As a three-headed person, one of his heads was torn off by Li Li Banfeng with the "Five Horses Dividing the Body" technique. According to Li Li Banfeng's understanding of the physiological structure of three-headed people, this middle head should not be able to grow back.

The Tu Fang envoy wanted to issue a stern warning to Li Li Banfeng; they wanted to tell Li Li Banfeng that the result of this incident was very serious!

But after Li Li Banfeng asked about their injuries with concern, they chose to express their dissatisfaction with silence; they believed that silent resistance was more powerful.

After confirming that the Tu Fang envoy had no other problems, Li Li Banfeng left the venue. The accompanying personnel stayed for a while longer, repeatedly emphasizing that Li Qi's actions did not represent the position of the Da Huan Kingdom.

As soon as he returned to the Dark Star Bureau, Li Li Banfeng received a call from Song Song Laoshi. "Li Banfeng, you've caused trouble! You should understand the current situation. What we need to do is delay time.

You are too impulsive. Where are you now? I asked my father to find Dr. Kang to see if this matter can still be remedied."

Li Li Banfeng responded calmly, "Teacher, I really don't think there is a better way to handle this matter."

Song Song Laoshi was very angry. "I know the Tu Fang people's attitude is a bit overbearing, but as long as you master the appropriate negotiation skills, you can still minimize the losses. You should have remained clear-headed and restrained in this matter. You have now seriously injured the Tu Fang envoy; what is the difference between this and declaring war?

The Like Puluozhou is not prepared for war at all. What do you expect them to use to fight the Tu Fang Kingdom?"

Regarding Song Song Laoshi's reproach, Li Li Banfeng did not make any further defense.

Leaving the Dark Star Bureau, Li Li Banfeng sat in the park for a while. An old woman was sweeping fallen leaves with a broom next to the bench. Li Li Banfeng stood up and said, "You sit."

"Young man, thank you, I won't sit, I still have work to do." The old woman wiped her sweat and continued sweeping the leaves.

Li Li Banfeng took the broom and said, "Second Aunt, sit down quickly, I'll do this work."

Bitter Granny sat on the bench and sighed. "It's really embarrassing to have you call me Second Aunt; people of my generation are all brothers with you."

Li Li Banfeng thought for a moment, and it was indeed the truth; Sun Sun Tiecheng was very dissatisfied with the title "Second Aunt".

"Big sister, it's like this—"

Slap!

Bitter Granny took out another broom and slapped Li Li Banfeng on the face. Li Li Banfeng took the two brooms and continued sweeping the floor.

Bitter Granny said earnestly, "Big nephew, do you know you've caused trouble?"

Li Li Banfeng swept the leaves into a pile and poured them into the trash can. "Do you also think I've caused trouble?"

Bitter Granny laughed. "Who hasn't been young? When I was young, I was more chaotic than you, and the trouble I caused was more than yours.

But the trouble you caused this time is too big; I'm afraid it won't be easy to end. You could have just scared them, how could you really cut off their heads."

Li Li Banfeng stood leaning on the broom. "But if I didn't cut off their heads, could I have scared them?"

Bitter Granny shook her head helplessly. "You chaotic kid, you just don't listen to advice. I tell you,

the Like Puluozhou is going to suffer. The Tu Fang people won't let it go. You must remember, don't get involved in this matter. Once you are deeply mired, it will be difficult to get out."

Li Li Banfeng turned the broom in his hand. "If I don't get involved, who else can manage this matter?"

Bitter Granny took the broom from Li Li Banfeng's hand. "That depends on whose head this matter falls on. Sweep the snow in front of your own door, don't worry about the frost on others' tiles.

The Like Puluozhou has always been like this, why do you have to be stubborn? If you really can't hide, just hide in the Bitter Vegetable Village, I will protect you."

After speaking, Bitter Granny flew away with the broom.

Li Li Banfeng stood on the ground, thinking about one question.

Why couldn't she fly away on the broom?

Returning to the Leaving Suishenju, Li Li Banfeng told the Lady about the incident.

The Lady pondered for a long time. Li Li Banfeng asked, "Do you also think I've caused trouble?"

"Husband wouldn't cause trouble. Husband is Xiao Nu's heart and treasure, how could he cause trouble?"

Li Li Banfeng shook his head. "Don't just protect me because I'm your man; doing so isn't rational."

The phonograph immediately changed her words. "Husband's actions have always been wise and decisive, how could he cause trouble?"

Li Li Banfeng nodded. "This evaluation is relatively objective."

The phonograph let the soul drill into Zhao Zhao Xiao Wan's body and sat beside Li Li Banfeng. "Husband, Xiao Nu really doesn't think you did anything wrong in this matter, but the cause and effect of this matter must be clarified.

The Tu Fang Kingdom has always been overbearing, but this is their first time dealing with Husband. At the very least, there should be some testing; it shouldn't be such a blatant provocation right from the start."

Li Li Banfeng hadn't dealt with the Tu Fang Kingdom, but he had another inference. "What if provocation is also considered testing?"

The Lady was clever and naturally understood the meaning. "If the Tu Fang Kingdom wasn't sure whether the Like Puluozhou would participate in the war, they wouldn't rashly provoke.

If the Tu Fang Kingdom had already received news that the Like Puluozhou was going to participate in the war and stood on the side of the Shang Kingdom, then provocation at this time would really become testing.

If we let it be, the Tu Fang Kingdom will push their luck, asking for a city today and a piece of land tomorrow, gradually controlling the Like Puluozhou in their hands.

If the Like Puluozhou resists, they might strike first, taking the opportunity to declare war, or they might continue to provoke to find out the truth."

Li Li Banfeng rubbed his forehead. When receiving the Tu Fang envoy, he realized this point. The situation at that time was very similar to some historical materials he had touched.

"This was forced into a dead end by them."

The Lady sighed. "Xiao Nu just doesn't understand, why did the Tu Fang Kingdom determine that the Like Puluozhou would participate in the war?"

Li Li Banfeng took a piece of paper, and the couple wrote and drew, stringing together the clues of the matter.

Li Li Banfeng first drew the first clue: "The Peddler and the Tu Fang Kingdom have had several conflicts recently, and both sides have already buried hatred."

The Lady drew the second clue: "Husband abolished the slave system in Xiao City. Lan Qiao Yi withstood the pressure of the court and did not interfere with Husband, helping Husband facilitate this matter. The Tu Fang Kingdom must think that Lan Qiao Yi and Husband reached a benefit exchange."

Hong Ying said, "Lan Qiao Yi didn't dare to interfere with Seventh Brother, isn't it because he turned from three heads into one, had a handle in Seventh Brother's hands, and also signed a contract with Seventh Brother?"

The phonograph said, "Outsiders don't know these things. In the eyes of outsiders, Lan Qiao Yi is so indulgent to Husband, he must have formed an alliance with Husband. The smooth progress of abolishing the slave system indeed has Lan Qiao Yi's credit."

Li Li Banfeng drew the third clue: "Lan Qiao Yi went with the flow and sent troops to the border. I heard from the Luo sisters that the Tu Fang Kingdom comes to plunder every autumn, and the court generally doesn't respond, but this year it's abnormal; the Shang Kingdom made a response."

The Lady continued, "The Tu Fang Kingdom must be able to infer that the reason why the Shang Kingdom has the confidence to resist is because of the support of the Like Puluozhou. Lan Qiao Yi released some wind, and the Like Puluozhou was dragged into the battlefield."

Jiu'er also saw the situation clearly. "Now the Tu Fang Kingdom has extended its hand to the Like Puluozhou. Lan Qiao Yi just waits for news. If the Like Puluozhou doesn't make a move, he will wait and see. If the Like Puluozhou makes a move, he will make a move together.

If this battle is won, Lan Qiao Yi's prestige will rise, and he will sit firmly in the court of the Shang Kingdom, and no one will be able to shake his position in the future."

Li Li Banfeng sat on the edge of the bed, thinking of the face of Lan Qiao Yi when he left Xiao City.

Thinking about it, Li Li Banfeng smiled.

"He put his methods on the table so clearly, but there's nothing you can do about him!

As long as he gets a bargain, he will definitely get it back with interest, not losing a bit.

This is not the first time. This old thief Lan Qiao Yi, no wonder that Saint couldn't fight him."

This was Li Li Banfeng's heartfelt praise, but the key question now was how to respond next.

What if the Tu Fang Kingdom wants to start a war directly?

What if he wants to test again?

Li Li Banfeng hadn't thought of a countermeasure when something happened in the Yaowang Ditch.

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng sent news that a group of three-headed people were going to the Bitter Mist Mountain to pick snake-pattern chrysanthemums.

Li Li Banfeng was surprised. "Are snake-pattern chrysanthemums blooming so late this year?"

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng said, "Old Seven, early or late is not the key, the key is that they cannot be allowed to go up the Bitter Mist Mountain. They are not three-headed people from the Like Puluozhou. Although they look very similar, they should be from the Tu Fang Kingdom."

"How many came?"

"More than three hundred."

The Lady heard the news and realized that the situation was not good. "This is the second provocation. Every provocation hits the vital point. There are iron-ribbed bamboos on the Bitter Mist Mountain."

Li Li Banfeng packed up simply and immediately returned to the Yaowang Ditch.

At dawn, more than three hundred three-headed people arrived at the foot of the Bitter Mist Mountain.

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng led his men forward to block them. "Please leave the Bitter Mist Mountain."

A three-headed person said to Qiu Qiu Zhiheng in a stiff tone, "We are from the Three-Head Fork, we are Like Puluozhou people, we want to pick some snake-pattern chrysanthemums to maintain our livelihood, what's wrong with that?"

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng shook his head. "If you want to find a living, I can help you, but you can't do this living."

》

"Why can't we do it?" The three-headed person looked at the flower pickers who were on the mountain. "Just because we look different from them, don't we have the right to make a living?

Seventh Brother says he wants to save us three-headed people, but doesn't give us the right to survive. Does he use this kind of hypocritical lie to deceive us?"

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng sank his face. "Where you are from, you know it in your heart. Do you have to make me speak clearly?"

The three-headed person looked at Qiu Qiu Zhiheng without any fear. "You speak clearly. Tell me, where exactly are we from?"

People from major medicine firms were watching from the side. Qiu Qiu Zhiheng couldn't bear it anymore and was about to make a move when a middle-aged man stopped Qiu Qiu Zhiheng and shook his head slightly at him.

Half-pot Yellow Soup Lan Qiao Lan Qiao Wuzui. He replaced Xu Lao and was responsible for looking after the Yaowang Ditch.

"Qiu Zhiheng, this matter cannot be managed, it will cause big trouble."

Qiu Qiu Zhiheng also knew that he couldn't easily make a move against these people. While hesitating, more than three hundred three-headed people went up the Bitter Mist Mountain.

On the hillside, Xu Han wiped the spoon and prepared the bucket.

Face-Big persuaded from the side, "Xu Lao, you are a smart person, you can't be confused about such a big thing. You are going to cause big trouble."

Bitter Granny also persuaded him from the side, "Xu Han, you are usually cautious in doing things, why are you so stubborn today?

Tu Fang people are here to test us, why do you have to drill into the trap?"

Xu Han put the bucket on the ground and looked up at Face-Big and Bitter Granny. "I am a farmer. As long as they don't touch my one-third of an acre of land, everything is fine. If they touch my one-third of an acre of land, the matter has to be calculated separately."

Face-Big saw that he couldn't persuade him, so he took a step back. "In that case, let's stop them, but don't hurt them, do you think it will work?"

Xu Han asked, "You tell me, if we don't hurt them, how can we stop them?"

"Slide them over!" Face-Big patted his chest. "I'll use a little means to let them slide all the way,

slide to the bottom of the mountain, won't this matter be finished?"

Xu Han asked, "What if they come up the mountain again tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow the snake-pattern chrysanthemums will all wither, what else is there to go up the mountain for?"

"Is it easy to find an excuse?" Xu Han pushed Face-Big away. Seeing the figures of the three-headed people approaching slowly in the fog, he scooped up a spoonful of half-dry and half-thin, ready to make a move.

Face-Big was still blocking him. "Xu Lao, don't kill them, leave some leeway!"

The three-headed people walked to the front and looked at Xu Han, Face-Big, and Bitter Granny.

The middle head asked, "Who are you?"

Xu Han laughed. "What do you think?"

The middle person laughed. "I think you look like a good person."

Xu Han nodded. "Others say so too."

The three heads spoke one after another:

"What are you doing here? Are you waiting for us?"

"You can support yourselves on the hillside of the Bitter Mist Mountain for so long, proving you are not ordinary people."

"If you are not ordinary people, you should know our identity, and you should also know our purpose for coming here,

so I advise you not to do stupid things."

Xu Han didn't speak; he didn't want to say much.

Face-Big whispered, "Don't be anxious, wait for them to gather, and I'll send them down together."

The three-headed people gathered more and more, and laughter rose one after another.

"We have gathered, what do you want to prove? Continue to prove your ignorance and stupidity?"

"Do you still think the Like Puluozhou has the highest combat power? The times have changed. If you want a battle, we can satisfy your requirements."

"Seeing that you are too old, we won't be too cruel to you. Just like a sentence you often say in the Like Puluozhou, we can stop at the right point. At least we can preserve your lives. This is our mercy and charity to you."

Face-Big saw that the timing was about right and was about to use his technique to let these three-headed people slide down the hillside.

Crack~

A tearing sound with a sense of heaviness suddenly sounded, and the leading three-headed person stopped laughing.

His shoulder was torn open, and there was a human head on the left, right, and middle of each shoulder.

All the three-headed people stopped laughing.

Bitter Granny looked at Face-Big. "Did you slide them away?"

Face-Big shook his head. "I haven't made a move yet."

Xu Han laughed. "It really is stopping at the right point, not letting you lose your heads, which counts as leaving a whole corpse."

Face-Big was anxious. "Xu Lao, how can you—"

"It wasn't me just now," Xu Lao picked up the spoon. "Now it's my turn!"

Seeing the leader die on the spot, the three-headed people screamed, and some fled to the bottom of the mountain. Xu Lao raised a spoonful of golden light like a waterfall,

blocking them.

There were also many people drilling into the woods. Xu Lao scooped up golden light again, and the golden juice turned into golden beads, jumping and chasing the scattered three-headed people.

First, it burned through their clothes, then it burned through their flesh and blood. After burning through their bones, the golden juice flowed into their body cavities and jumped happily with their internal organs.

The three-headed people's bodies were special and could persist for a period of time under the golden light.

Just now, when the three-headed leader was torn open, Li Li Banfeng saw it very clearly. Their body structure was the same as Lan Qiao Yi's, with two bodies embedded in another body.

A tenacious three-headed person rushed out of the woods, shaking off the pursuit of the golden light. Their bodies also suffered serious damage, but their flesh and blood and internal organs could regenerate at an extremely fast speed. He used the speed of regeneration to resist the speed of the golden juice corrosion.

This was some kind of body cultivation means. No wonder this group of Tu Fang people was so rampant. They were all dark energy users, and their level was not low. It was just that they were not familiar enough with the Like Puluozhou and regarded Xu Han and others as ordinary cultivators.

Li Li Banfeng stopped the three-headed person who was fleeing. "This is the Bitter Mist Mountain, it's very dangerous. Don't run around, you'll get lost. Go back quickly."

He kicked the three-headed person to Xu Han.

"You came from so far away, it's not easy. I, the old man, didn't treat you well, eat something first!" Xu Lao fed him a spoonful of golden juice.

This mouthful of golden juice burned from the mouth all the way down, burning through the internal organs. This three-headed person died on the spot. No matter how strong the regenerative ability was, it was impossible to recover.

Others were anxious and fled in all directions. Xu Lao carried the spoon and persuaded, "Don't be anxious, don't grab, everyone has some!"

After a while, more than three hundred three-headed people were cleaned up by Li Li Banfeng and Xu Han.

Face-Big was so angry that he jumped. "You two villains, more than three hundred people, not one left!"

"That's not how it's said," Xu Han searched the bucket for a long time. "There's one left, this one seems to still have breath."

Face-Big took a look. "Give him a quick end, what has he been soaked into? Didn't I say not to hurt them?"

Li Li Banfeng looked at the corpses all over the ground. "Didn't hurt them, aren't they all dead now?"

Face-Big looked at Li Li Banfeng, so angry that he couldn't speak, and turned to Xu Han. "He is young and doesn't understand things, are you also messing around at your age? With things turned out like this, how can we explain to the Peddler?"

Xu Lao put away the spoon. "I still say the same thing, touch my one-third of an acre of land, no matter who it is, I can't spare them.

As for the Peddler, I have nothing to explain. You have a big face, you go and explain to him."

Face-Big was angry. "What does this have to do with having a big face?"

Bitter Granny looked at Face-Big. "I think your face isn't big either."

Li Li Banfeng shook his head. "Second Aunt, we have to speak with a conscience. Isn't Face-Big's face big?"

"Not big!" Bitter Granny answered very decisively.

Li Li Banfeng was stunned for a moment.

He remembered one thing: there really was someone who thought Face-Big's face wasn't big. Who was that?

Face-Big squatted on the side of the road and didn't speak.

Xu Han looked at the corpses all over the ground and sighed. "They are all people who don't listen to advice. I told them not to go up the mountain, but they insisted on going."

Li Li Banfeng also sighed. "They went up the mountain to pick snake-pattern chrysanthemums, all for the sake of earning a few pennies to survive. Every year, I don't know how many people die on the mountain like this. Xu Lao, bury them thickly."

Xu Han nodded. "Okay, I'll scoop some dry ones for them later."

Bitter Granny said, "Don't think that this matter can be brushed off like this. The Tu Fang Kingdom might take the opportunity to start a war.

"

Li Li Banfeng looked at the fog on the Bitter Mist Mountain. "If we don't brush it off, will the Tu Fang Kingdom not start a war?"

Bitter Granny was speechless. She understood Li Qi less and less; whether it was his temperament or his strength, she couldn't understand.

Just now, Li Qi suddenly killed the three-headed leader. Bitter Granny hadn't sensed Li Qi coming before.

Face-Big hadn't sensed it either, only Xu Han had sensed it.

To what extent had this descendant's cultivation reached?

How should this situation be cleaned up? The Tu Fang Kingdom was bound to attack, how should the Peddler respond?

Tu Fang Kingdom, outside the Desert City, vanguard camp.

Centurion Yang Genni was patrolling the camp. He saw a soldier squatting next to a tent, making a fire.

That soldier had a white long hair and a pair of curved horns. From the appearance, it was a sheep, and it should be a person in his camp.

He stepped forward and asked, "What are you doing here?"

The soldier raised his head. "It's too cold at night, I want to roast the fire and warm up."

Yang Genni stroked his beard and carefully sized up this soldier.

This soldier did have a sheep's face, but Yang Genni didn't remember having such a soldier in his camp.

Besides, his accent was also very peculiar. Although it could be understood, his pronunciation was very stiff.

"Why don't you return to your own tent? At this time, fire is not allowed in the camp!"

The soldier shrugged. "I told you just now, it's too cold in the tent. If you don't let me make a fire, how can I warm up?"

These words completely exposed the soldier's identity.

He was not a Tu Fang person; his Tu Fang language was not standard at all.

"Who exactly are you?" Yang Genni drew his sword and pointed it at the soldier's face.

The soldier raised both hands. "Don't be so excited. Actually, my language talent is not bad, but your pronunciation is really uncomfortable."

Yang Genni swung his sword to cut, but his hands were shaking violently, and he couldn't swing the sword at all.

"The sword is very heavy, right?" The soldier retreated a few steps, trying to keep a certain distance from Yang Genni. "I suggest you put the sword down first. Later, when your sword falls to the ground and cuts your own foot, it will have an adverse effect on your subsequent condition."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Genni's sword fell to the ground.

Although the sword edge didn't hurt his foot, he bent down to pick up the sword, but his fingers couldn't exert any strength.

The soldier tried to dissuade him. "You don't have much time left. Don't waste it on meaningless things. In the next less than a minute, you can still remain clear-headed. Please allow me to use this precious time to introduce your condition to you.

Your hands will quickly lose the ability to move, but this is not important, because your subsequent actions will mainly rely on your legs and teeth.

Although you will lose consciousness, as a soldier, you can still maintain a good combat state.

You will run, run very fast, and you will go and bite anyone you see, regardless of friend or foe.

People bitten by you will become the same state as you. Their hands will lose function, but the function of their legs and jaws will be strengthened. They will run faster, bite harder, and bring the same condition to more people."

Yang Genni rushed toward Cui Tike, wanting to fight him to the death.

Cui Tike dodged to the side. "I reminded you, don't do meaningless things. It's useless for you to bite me; I already have the condition on me.

You go over there, go to the tent, there are many people waiting for you there, they are your targets."

Yang Genni looked at the tent, then looked at the soldier in front of him.

He wanted to shout, but no sound came out of his throat.

Cui Tike felt very sorry. "Forgot to remind you, after the onset, you will lose the ability to express, but I don't think this is very important."

Yang Genni rushed toward Cui Tike several times, but couldn't even touch Cui Tike's battle suit.

His consciousness gradually blurred. He didn't want to rush toward the soldier's tent, so he chose to rush toward the fire, wanting to end his life, but was stopped by Cui Tike.

"Don't be in a hurry to die. Your life only has three to five hours left. When the time is up, you will rot and die, but before you die, please do something meaningful first. The meaning of your life is inside the tent."

Cui Tike guided Yang Genni into a tent.

A few minutes later, Cui Tike saw a group of soldiers rushing out of the tent with their arms hanging down, opening their mouths, looking for targets in the camp.

Cui Tike bent his waist, lowered his arms, imitated their movements, and ran wildly with this group of soldiers.

This running posture was very tiring, but Cui Tike enjoyed the joy of this moment.

He turned to look at a soldier and whispered, "This technique is called 'Oral Transmission and Heart Teaching'. You must use your mouth and your inner fighting spirit to spread the condition.

Can you remember the name of this technique? I'll tell you a good news: with three techniques above the clouds, I can move toward a higher level!"

Thirty miles away from the vanguard camp, there was a granary, storing a large amount of grain.

Unlike the Shang Kingdom people, most of the Tu Fang people's food was grain, which could be eaten in the Like Puluozhou.

The Peddler sighed. "The Tu Fang Kingdom's grain is getting less and less. It's really not easy to fill such a big granary."

Ayi also sighed. "It's not easy. Why don't I send the grain to Gourd Village for them to keep?"

The Peddler shook his head. "Don't talk nonsense. How long will it take to move such a big granary?"

Ayi was a bit helpless. "Anyway, let's do it."

She took thirty pounds of explosives from her backpack, rubbing them while whispering.

The Peddler was a bit worried. "Is this thing really okay? I spent a lot of effort to find this granary and camp."

"Rest assured," Ayi smiled triumphantly. "Li Qi bombed the altar in Hao City with this good stuff."

The Peddler was worried about Cui Tike's situation and urged Ayi. "Is this thing ready?"

"Ready!" Ayi nodded. "It will explode in the blink of an eye!"

The Peddler: "Explode in the blink of an eye?"

"Hmm!" Ayi blinked at the Peddler, revealing a sweet smile.

PS: In Chapter 302, Face-Big once said that someone said his face was not big.
