Chapter 721 In the way of the Jianghu people
In the face of the Yuwen family, if only in terms of military strength, Su Peng was not afraid of them.
After all, the Liangzhou Army and the Yuncheng Demon Army combined, their strength is almost twice that of the Yuwen family, and the Yuwen family is in a disadvantageous state at this point.
However, the plague mastered by the Yuwen family was the most feared place by Su Peng.
This time, the plague leaked in Liaocheng, and Su Peng guessed that it was not the kind of plague that the Yuwen family mastered, but another plague source that didn't know how to act on Liaocheng, causing the current situation in Liaocheng.
According to the content of Yuwen Wuji's letter that Su Peng read, the plague of the Yuwen family, whether in terms of manifestation or other aspects, could not be the plague of Liaocheng.
In this way, the Yuwen family has at least another source of plague in their hands.
If the Yuwen family really didn't care about the others and used the source of the plague to attack Su Peng's area, Su Peng really didn't have any treasure to do.
This time is lucky, in reality, there is a special medicine to treat the plague in Liaocheng, if the plague does not have this special medicine next time, Su Peng really doesn't know how to deal with it.
Today, I pointed out that I knew about the Yuwen family's plague offensive, which was to point it out in advance, so that the Yuwen family would have a consideration, and not use this plague weapon lightly, so that the other party would be afraid in their hearts.
To put it bluntly, it is to give the Yuwen family eye medicine in advance to make the other party maintain restraint.
Although Su Peng's meaning was not clearly stated, Yuwen Wuji, who was extremely thin on the other side, seemed to have understood what Su Peng meant.
I just heard him sit down and say to Su Peng at the negotiation table: "What Mr. Su just said is too much to worry about, the plague is relatively rare, how can it appear continuously?" Liaocheng and Yuzhou will need some time to recover. ”
"That's fine." Su Peng listened to the other party's words. Knowing that the other party understood what he meant, he nodded to him and said: "Then now, let's talk about the matter of Liaocheng, a few people have also seen it, the current situation in Liaocheng is that I am dealing with the matter here, you gave up Liaocheng at the beginning, and I treated the plague raging in Liaocheng, from this point of view, the ownership of Liaocheng is now in my hands." Absolutely no objections, right? ”
"That's not right!" The white-haired Yuwen was hurt when he heard this, and said to Su Peng: "As we all know, Liaocheng has always been the chassis of the Yuwen family, you ...... this time."
As soon as Yuwen Wuji said half of his words, Yuwen Wuji's hand beside him pressed on Yuwen Wuji's hand on the table. interrupted Yuwen's speech.
"Uncle Cousin, all of you here are smart people. We say that some of these are not. Inevitably, I look down on Mr. Su too much. Yuwen Wuji pressed Yuwen Injury's hand with his hand, and said to Yuwen Injury in a calm tone.
Yuwen was hurt when he heard this, and seemed to be really persuaded to do so, and he didn't say anything more about the history of the city.
Su Peng saw it, and he knew in his heart that he would come forward this time. may still be dominated by Yuwen Wuji, and Yuwen is injured just by relying on seniority to suppress the scene.
"Mr. Su, I won't say anything superfluous, I admit that you are the actual controller of Liaocheng now. However, Mr. Su should also understand that it is imperative for our Yuwen family to return to Liaocheng. Yuwen Wuji looked at Su Peng and said to him: "Although I think that your promise may be very slim, but because of the meaning of some elders in the clan, I still ask, does Mr. Su have the intention of selling Liaocheng?" If you are willing to sell the ownership of Liaocheng, the Yuwen family is willing to pay 100,000 taels of gold to buy. ”
When Su Peng heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "One hundred thousand taels of gold? It doesn't sound like a little, but unfortunately, Liaocheng is worth more than this, and I won't sell it. ”
Just kidding, not to mention the extremely important strategic value of Liaocheng, that is, the people of Liaocheng and various commercial places in Liaocheng add up to more than 100,000 taels of gold, and Yuwen's family wants to buy it back to Liaocheng for 100,000 taels of gold, which is simply wishful thinking.
Yuwen Wuji also smiled when he heard this, and said, "I don't think Mr. Su will sell it either, but I always have to ask about the sentence just now...... Okay, now let me ask Mr. Su, are you like my Yuwen family, you are not willing to fight each other at every turn, but want to find a relatively gentle way to deal with the affairs of Liaocheng? ”
"If possible, I would have this desire." Su Peng nodded, and said to Yuwen Wuji: "We all know that if the two of us start a war, there will be other forces that will benefit, if possible, I don't want our two families to really meet each other, and it is best to solve the matter of Liaocheng in a relatively gentle way." ”
"That's great." After listening to this, Yuwen Wuji gently slapped the table with his hand and said to Su Peng: "Mr. Su, I have a proposal, since neither of you nor I will suffer from the use of swords, then you might as well change the large-scale war into a small-scale battle between the rivers and lakes, and rely on the way of fighting in the ring to decide the ownership of Liaocheng?" ”
"Fighting?"
When Su Peng heard this, he felt a little surprised, he looked at Yuwen Wuji and asked him, "How is it a mode of fighting in the rivers and lakes?" ”
"It's simple." Yuwen Wuji looked at Su Peng and seemed to be a little moved, and continued to say to Su Peng: "Since Mr. Su has become a great sacrifice wine in Liangzhou, he can naturally mobilize a lot of masters in Liangzhou, and my Yuwen family is also in control of a state, and there are also some masters with good martial arts, so, you and I will each have five people in each family to fight in the ring, and whoever wins the ring in the end will have more people, then whoever will get the ownership of Liaocheng, and the losing side can't fight each other, what does Mr. Su think?" ”
"Huh?" When Su Peng heard this, he was a little surprised that Yuwen Wuji's creativity actually wanted to turn a large-scale army struggle into the last days of the rivers and lakes, which was a bit novel.
"Agreed...... I'm afraid there's something wrong. After Su Peng listened, he looked at Yuwen Wuji and said: "Before, your Yuwen family had signed a treaty with the Yuncheng incident, saying that they would not attack Yuncheng, but the news I got that before the Liaocheng plague, what you did was to use Liaocheng's army to attack my Yuncheng in one fell swoop, and I don't believe in your Yuwen family's agreement." ”
"And what about adding the Great Empty Temple as a guarantee?" Yuwen Wuji's eyes flashed with a glimmer of light, and he asked Su Peng.
"Oh?" Su Peng listened, turned his head to look at Shi Weixin, and asked Shi Weixin: "Master Shi Weixin, are you willing to guarantee the Yuwen family in Dakong Temple?" ”
"Amitabha." Shi Weixin listened, sang a Buddha horn, and said: "The sword soldiers are unknown, once the war starts, the people of Yuzhou and Liangzhou will be affected and poisoned, Yuwen Wuji's donor proposed to fight in the rivers and lakes instead of war, but it is a great good deed, such a good deed, my Dakong Temple is willing to guarantee the Yuwen family, one to ensure that the Yuwen family abides by the agreement, and the other is to ensure the safety of both parties...... No matter where the venue of the competition is, the safety of people on both sides of the competition will be guaranteed. ”
"Master, you're quite compassionate." Su Peng listened and nodded, not to mention, the Dakong Temple did quite an authentic thing.
If the Dakong Temple is the guarantor, then with the relationship between the Dakong Temple and the Puning Sword Sect behind the Yuwen family, this competition in the ring is really worth participating.
Although behind the Yuwen family is the Puning Sword School, there should be many masters, but in Liangzhou, Xu Huaiyu has been hiring masters for many years, although Liangzhou does not have a particularly large martial arts sect, but there are not a few masters of the Assassin Mansion, and they may not lose to the people of the Puning Sword School in terms of quality.
And if it is a battle between the rivers and lakes, Su Peng can also play himself, and Su Peng still has some confidence in his own force.
"I'm a little interested......," Su Peng said, and then asked: "It's just that I have occupied Liaocheng, but you don't have Liaocheng, just by winning or losing a battle, you want to recapture the city, does it seem a little advantageous to me?" ”
"There is such a suspicion." Yuwen Wuji listened, nodded, and said: "In this way, Liaocheng is not ownerless now, but is occupied by Mr. Su, so it does seem that we have taken advantage, but I have already considered it, and I am willing to give an extra 50,000 taels of gold, which is counted as an addition, if Mr. Su wins, you can win it together with the gold and the ownership of Liaocheng, if we win, Mr. Su doesn't have to lose anything, this gambling money, we also put it in Master Shi Weixin, guaranteed by Dakong Temple, what does Mr. Su think?" ”
When Su Peng heard this, he nodded, the gambling contract is not much, but from this point, he can see the sincerity of the Yuwen family.
"How exactly is the fight, and where is the place of the ring?" Su Peng asked again.
"The way of the competition, each side out of five people, the ring match, each time the two sides on the stage each one, and then the fight, can not continue to fight again, admit defeat, or the dead side is considered to lose, the winning side can choose to go down the stage and replace the fight again, or continue to fight, their own substitution is not a loss, but can not go on again, and finally see who wins the most in the ring on both sides, who is considered the winner, how about this?"
Yuwen Wuji asked Su Peng.
Su Peng nodded, and then said, "Where is the location?" ”
"The location is in the Puning Sword Sect on Wugong Mountain in Yuzhou...... Mr. Su, there are several aspects to consider it this way, first, the martial arts mountain of the Puning Sword Sect is a famous mountain on the rivers and lakes, and going there to compete is not an insult to Mr. Su and this competition, second, this competition, my Yuwen family will invite fellow Taoists from the rivers and lakes to come to watch the ceremony, so as to supervise both sides of the competition, if you win or lose and do not admit it, it will be laughed at by the martial arts people in the world, and it is also a supervision, so that the place of the competition is placed in other places, it will inevitably seem that the Puning Sword Sect is a little rude, so it is finally set in Wugong Mountain. As for the third, Mr. Su, this time I dare to come to Liaocheng alone, Mr. Su, you are not afraid to go to my Yuwen family's territory, right? ”
Yuwen Wuji looked at Su Peng and said to Su Peng.
When Su Peng heard this, he thought for a while, and finally raised his head and said with a smile: "That's fine, then I will make an agreement with you to use the rivers and lakes to fight in Wugong Mountain, where the Puning Sword Sect is located, to decide the belonging of Liaocheng!"
