Chapter 327 Cannibal Forest
Although Zhao Lie changed into a general's uniform and a blue shirt, he still remained unabashed in style and had a certain temperament while walking.
When Zhao Lie entered the door, a friend who led the way for Zhao Lie retreated and closed the door.
"General Zhao is here to visit his humble house, and his brilliance is shining!" Fujichiqiu stood up and clasped his fists with respect. Judging from his attitude, Fujichiqiu was much better to Zhao Lie than to the old emperor. Even Zou Zichuan felt that Fujichiqiu had expressed his inner respect for Zhao Lie.
"Mr. Teng, I've disturbed it. Because the situation is too urgent, I can only take the liberty to visit. Please forgive me."
"please!"
"please!"
The two of them politely said a few words before they sat down. Zou Zichuan just looked at Zhao Lie quietly and didn't say anything. For some reason, Zou Zichuan actually saw his own shadow from Zhao Lie.
He was as energetic as Zhao Lie, but ended up hanging. Thinking of this, Zou Zichuan couldn't help feeling a little sad. I wonder how the Redel Empire was like?
Suddenly, Zou Zichuan had an eager plan to return to the Redel Empire to see. The old emperor pretended to die. What is the situation now? Has the large-scale invasion of the colorful shell insects been curbed?
Moreover, Zou Zichuan really wants to know how Xiao Hei is now.
"Mr. Zou, thank you!" Zhao Lie, who was sitting, suddenly stood up, clasped his fists and bowed deeply to Zou Zichuan.
"fine."
The two of them made a tacit polite remark. Zou Zichuan naturally understood why Zhao Lie thanked him. When Zou Zichuan was in the Dicheng conference room, if Zou Zichuan revealed that Zhao Lie had been to the grassland, then Zhao Lie would definitely die without a burial place, because the news of the death of the little duke will sooner or later reach Dicheng.
After Zou Zichuan read a lot of history books, Zou Zichuan had already guessed that even if Zou Zichuan didn't kill the young duke that day, Zhao Lie would kill him. This was obvious, because Zhao Lie had no reason to run to the prairie alone in the middle of the night.
The duke and his family kept preventing Zhao Lie from gaining military power and constantly increasing their own private army, which had already aroused Zhao Lie's murderous intent...
It is precisely because Zhao Lie is a dangerous person who uses any means that Zou Zichuan sees his shadow in him.
Zhao Lie's mentality is already at a very dangerous level for fame and fortune, which is also the main reason why the old emperor is worried.
"I am confused. Why does the emperor believe your deceptive words?" After Zhao Lie sat down, his originally gentle face suddenly became extremely serious.
"How can I see that what I'm saying is a bewitching word?" Zou Zichuan stared at Zhao Lie's face with cold eyes.
"The eighteen countries have strong troops and horses. It is the time when the national strength is at its peak. Your Majesty is able to unify the entire continent. Do you know what consequences your Majesty will bring to you?" Zhao Lie did not retreat when facing Zou Zichuan's sharp and cold eyes.
"General Zhao, whether it is the old emperor or me, you are just a chess piece. You will not understand that you have not reached the core of your rights." Zou Zichuan picked up the tea and said slowly.
"Just, Zhao abandoned his pen and joined the army at the age of 32, and had already shown his strength at the age of 33. At the age of 34, he had already made his mark. Not long after he was 35, he drowned more than 300,000 elite troops from the 17 countries in the Jingguan battle. He set up an ambush in Pingjin Pass, killed 70,000 enemies and captured 20,000 enemies. The great marshal of the Red Dragon Empire, Tieguer, and Zhao, were also hanging their bodies for a hundred days... On the mainland, who dares to say that I, Zhao, is a pawn?!"
Zhao Lie stood up suddenly, laughed at the sky, and a sense of heroism soared into the sky. He was wearing a blue shirt without wind, and he actually had a momentum that looked down on the world.
"I said you are you."
Zou Zichuan paused word by word, with a trace of disdain on the corner of his mouth. Compared with Zhao Lie's military merits, he had the capital to be disdained. He slaughtered more than 2 million people just by burying them alive. Zhao Lie's only hundreds of thousands of them were a trivial number, not to mention that this was completely incomparable. After all, this is the era of cold weapons.
"you!"
Zhao Lie had a scattered beard and a furious look on his face. No one dared to look down on him so much.
"General Zhao, Mr. Teng and I went to the Death Desert to see. I wonder if you have time?" Zou Zichuan was unmoved by Zhao Lie's rage.
"I'm very busy, too!"
Zhao Lie said angrily, and walked out with his sleeves. The so-called "not speculating" is a lot of words.
"General Zhao calms down. Since Mr. Zou invites you, it's okay to go there." Fuji Chiaki shouted quickly.
"It's okay to go or not, but General Zhao, what I want to tell you is that no matter what possibility, you will not end well." Zou Zichuan stood up and strode outside.
"Why?" Zhao Lie's pupils tightened and he stared at Zou Zichuan's broad back. His figure was already majestic enough, but this young man was stronger and thicker than him, like a mountain, giving people a kind of pressure out of thin air.
"If the Gallon Empire is defeated, you will naturally be the defeated general, and the result needs to be said. If the Gallon Empire wins greatly and unifies the entire continent, you will be very good at conquering the master, and you will be cunning rabbits and lackeys... Haha..."
"Please make it clear!" Zhao Lie's body suddenly shook. This was exactly what he was most worried about. In the history of more than 800 years on the mainland, the Edward family did not do much to kill heroic officials. Now the enemy has entered the Galen Empire and is about to reach the city. However, the old emperor still held on to the military power and his suspicion for him is already very obvious.
"Since you dare to kill the little duke, you have already escaped from the control of the old emperor. Could it be that a royal family will allow someone like you to be by your side?"
"You killed the little duke?" Fuji Chiaki looked at Zhao Lie in amazement with an incredible expression on his face.
"No...I didn't...it was him who killed..."
"Haha, why are you doing in the prairie? No one will believe you. I believe that someone will monitor you when you leave the city. At least, they know that you happened to leave the city when the little duke died. It is very likely that the old emperor has already received the news that you are his last life-saving straw and it is not easy to kill you. After the war, you will settle the accounts with you."
"I...I..." Zhao Lie stammered and couldn't speak.
"I'll leave first, please discuss with Mr. Teng. Five hours later, I'll wait for you in the Death Desert. Mr. Teng will talk to General Zhao." Zou Zichuan pushed the door and walked out with great strode.
"Where are we looking for you?!" Fuji Qianqiu asked anxiously when he saw Zou Zichuan walking out.
"I'll look for you!"
Zou Zichuan left a sentence, his voice far away, obviously, had already walked out of the door, and could hear Opp's urgent footsteps following closely behind.
After a while, it was already five o'clock in the afternoon, which means that it was ten o'clock in the evening when Zhao Lie made an appointment to meet in the desert.
Zou Zichuan deliberately staggered it for a while because he needed to help Yazi cover the bone pieces of the corpse bird king.
After Opp returned to the small room, he followed Zou Zichuan with some gadgets in his arms. He didn't understand what Zou Zichuan asked him to do with these things.
The two walked out of the heavily guarded city gate. What made Zou Zichuan strange was that it was much more difficult to get out of the city than entering the city. There were five checkpoints in the short city gate of a few dozen meters, and the inspection was very detailed. Fortunately, it seemed that most of the soldiers knew Opp and did not make things difficult for the two.
Walking out of the city gate, there is a huge forest of cannibal trees. Because Zouzichuan did not walk through the city gate in the desert, but walked through the cannibal trees forest. This forest is obviously artificially cultivated, with a large number of spacing. It is probably for fire prevention and convenient access to people and animals. There are also some tortuous official roads built inside. The construction of the official roads is also very particular. It can pass through cars and horses, but the speed cannot be increased to the limit. Obviously, this is to avoid the enemy using the speed of the black horse to impact the city gate...
The moonlight shines in the woods, like a poem and picturesque, but the big tree waving its ostentatious vines in the air adds a strange atmosphere.
"I...we...what are we here?" Opp stammered behind Zou Zichuan. He felt that his body could not control himself, and an extreme fear spreading in his blood vessels.
The two of them walked carefully along the official road, because the hunting range of the man-eating tree was just on both sides of the official road. If they were not careful, they would be swept into the woods by the long vines of the man-eating tree.
After the two of them ran quickly for more than half an hour, Zou Zichuan began to penetrate into the woods. The ground of the woods was very clean. Except for some soft and not deep grass, there were few shrubs and weeds. Opp looked at the vines waving in the air with fear, and his chest was almost touching Zou Zichuan's back.
"Bang!"
"oops……"
After going deeper for more than ten kilometers, Zou Zichuan suddenly stopped by a particularly lush forest. Opp accidentally hit Zou Zichuan's back.
"arrive."
"What are you doing..."
Opp looked at the big trees around him with fear. Maybe the place is fertile and some trees are particularly tall, some of which are dozens of meters high. The vines are more than 200 meters long. Almost all the trees are controlled by the vines. Under the moonlight, you can see some white beast bones on the grass, among which, there are some musk pig bones...
This is an extremely dangerous place, and the waving rattans on the top of the head seem to be wrapped around at any time.
"Please guard the surroundings and don't let people get close!"
Zou Zichuan's hand shook in the air, and the purple core bow appeared in his hand and handed it to Op.
"Who will be there in this ghost place...ah...Purple Heart Bow..."
Op whispered in a low voice, and when he took the bow from Zou Zichuan's hand, he was immediately attracted by the legendary longbow.
"Eye highlights!"
Zou Zichuan's sharp eyes swept Op's face. Opup had a cold war and quickly cheered up and looked around. Zou Zichuan sat on the grass with satisfaction.
The spirit was stirring in the air, and it was advancing little by little, one, two, three...
There are more than 700 small insects in this forest chewing trees. It seems that even the cannibal trees at the top of the food chain have natural enemies.
