Chapter 917: Intimidation
Tian Xian breathed a sigh of relief, picked a leaf from the mother king vine on the side of the street, kneaded it in all directions, and sprinkled the juice into the air. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
The juice of the mother vine was viscous, and there were not many droplets in the air, so Tian Xian stood on the ground with wide eyes, and when the droplets fell, his body suddenly moved.
Like this more than a dozen times, I was tired and panting on the side of the road.
And there are already green spots on the body......
These falling droplets are not as fast as the wine droplets that Bai passed through, and they can even be said to be a hundred times and a thousand times different, so they can only barely flash a part of them, and Tian Xian is more and more aware that Bai has shown more terrifying combat skills.
However, fortunately, it still dodged some of it, and if it was just a single attack, there should be no problem now.
If that black-armored commander comes again, he might be able to catch her by surprise!
Although I haven't been able to use the new tricks yet, I've already caught the essentials, and I'm very happy.
Looking at the time, Tian Xian dragged his tired body back to the town hall, and today Fire Leaf City will be fully opened again, which means that the envoys of various countries who were blocked out of the city under the emergency situation two days ago will flock in, and as the Grand Duke, he should still show his face.
Of course, it is the frosty face of the snow that will never melt to deal with these messengers who always ask all sorts of unreasonable questions.
But today, Tian Xian also wants to hear what these envoys will say, after all, the situation is starting to be a little special.
In the evening, Fire Leaf City was completely opened, and the envoys of various countries who had been waiting for a long time were allowed to process, and they watched the travelers from all over the world shuttling inside and outside the city gate without hindrance, and their faces were a little ugly, but this was the consistent style of Fire Leaf City, and no one could say a word.
Tian Xian ran the trick of rebellion early, eliminated the redness and swelling of his body, changed into casual clothes and sat next to him, and put the snow on the main seat.
Xue brought a pot of herbal tea, knowing that she might have to sit a little longer today.
This time, the envoys were much more respectful than before, and I don't know if it was because of the strange victory in the magical battle two days ago or because of the fact that Tian Xian was now in awe as a self-proclaimed person of divine inspiration.
But Tian Xian didn't care about this, leaning lazily beside him, looking like he didn't ask me about everything, and whispered to Gu Li and the four girls who were sitting next to him, and the two girls chuckled from time to time, but they seemed to whisper.
The envoys saluted, and for a moment they were a little embarrassed, not knowing whether to ask the Grand Duchess, who had no expression and would not answer when asked, or whether to ask the Grand Duke, who was sitting there flirting with other girls.
"If you have something to say, the snow will give you a satisfactory answer. Tian Xian smiled casually at everyone, and then went back to whisper to Gu Li, Gu Li's cheeks were slightly red, and it seemed that Tian Xian was talking about meat jokes.
"Hmm. Xue nodded cooperatively, but there was no expression on her face except for nodding.
"Dear Grand Duke, the night before yesterday, Fire Leaf City was attacked by unknown forces, and it was really bold to attack this city that was inspired by God, but I don't know who launched the attack. A messenger finally stood up.
Tian Xian waved his hand at Xue, turned around and continued to bite his ears with the four girls.
The messenger had no choice but to ask Xue again.
"Hmm. Xue nodded, took a sip of herbal tea, and put it down......
Everyone waited for a while, but the snow was gone, and the "um" just now seemed to be what you meant......
This kind of situation is often used to the envoys of Fire Leaf City, and when facing this cold-faced beauty, most of them can't find out any information, but since there is still a day to be idle today, the envoys still have a little more hope in their hearts.
Although Xue didn't mean to answer, since he came forward to receive the envoys, there should always be some reaction, and the envoys took the trouble to ask questions one by one, from the battle situation the day before yesterday to the smell of the elven fruit, from the divine revelation to the color of the wasteland outside the Fire Leaf City......
All sorts of questions pop up trying to get Snow to say something.
"Hmm......" Xue nodded, her eyes fixed on the messenger who asked the question for the first time, and the messenger suddenly felt honored, and waited for Xue to speak.
"Hmm. Snow nodded again and drank tea.
Finally, a knight in a white robe walked out, "Since the Grand Duke and Madam are unwilling to say anything, we have no choice but to take action on our own, Fire Leaf City is a place inspired by God, and it cannot be attacked for no reason, if the Grand Duke and Madam do not object, the Holy Spirit Temple will immediately reconvene the armies of all countries on the mainland to come and garrison to protect the safety of Fire Leaf City!"
The envoys were stunned when they heard this, and then they agreed with it.
Now, Fire Leaf City is a piece of incense, this place that is against the Longyuan Empire and does not fall to the Holy Spirit Hall can be said to be neutral, which is nothing originally, but it is completely different after being inspired by God.
The reason why the Holy Spirit Temple can stand for thousands of years is that the biggest reliance is the name of the descendants of the gods, and this banner is the golden signboard of the Holy Spirit Temple's activities in various parts of the mainland.
And now Fire Leaf City also has such a banner, and it is bigger and more appealing than the Holy Spirit Temple.
Now the power of Fire Leaf City is still weak, but they have begun to recruit troops, and it will soon be a delicate time for the rise of new forces.
A little opportunity will bring endless benefits, who is at home at this time and does not go out, and when they come out again, the world may be completely different.
Snow nodded, still unresponsive.
For these messengers, Xue didn't pay attention at all, usually, Xue sat here thinking about how to sleep more comfortably at night, and then he studied the control method of the Hangu Tower, and then occasionally made a sound, and when his train of thought was interrupted, he glanced at those messengers, and the way they stared at them was really interesting.
Tian Xian frowned slightly at this time, and his gaze moved away from Gu Li's alluring curves and fell on the knight's face.
Still want to come to the garrison?
A fire slowly surged up in Tianxian's heart, if it was someone else's words, or he could sit idly by, but the Holy Spirit Hall said this, but it was a little unbearable!
"I don't know, how is General Gunn's injury now?" Tian Xian finally spoke.
The envoys all turned their faces with a "sigh", and all of them came to Tianxian's side as if they had been amnestied, and the knight saw Tianxian speak, and was a little proud that his plan had worked, and replied with a smile: "General Gunn is only slightly injured, and it is not in the way." ”
"Minor injuries...... Tian Xian smiled, "It turns out that in the eyes of the Holy Spirit Temple, broken hands and feet are only minor injuries, it seems that your common sense is not quite the same as ours." ”
Gunn had broken his hands and feet in the battle with the Black Armor Commander, and now he should be lying in the army to recuperate, and he may have even been sent back to the Holy Spirit Temple headquarters, how could it be a minor injury.
Most of the envoys laughed unceremoniously, and in recent years, many countries on the mainland, especially some small countries, have not had a harmonious relationship with the Holy Spirit Temple.
Tian Xian continued: "But since he was only slightly injured, then it is naturally a good thing, but there is one thing I don't understand, I hope you can give me an answer." ”
The knight bowed his head respectfully, "Archduke, excuse me." ”
"Just now you said that the Holy Spirit Temple wants to summon all the countries of the mainland to garrison here, that is, ...... You want to protect Leaf City, right?"
The knight puffed up his chest and replied proudly: "Yes, as the guide of the human race, the Holy Spirit Temple, which enshrines the gods, will never watch the inspired Fire Leaf City being attacked, and we will definitely protect the Fire Leaf City at all costs." ”
The knight smiled at Tian Xian and gave him a look.
Tian Xian understands the meaning of this look, Gu N has explained it before, and hopes to join forces with Fire Leaf City to create a direction guided by the gods.
"However, why didn't the Holy Spirit Temple move the day before yesterday?"
The words of the day were splashed in the hall like cold water, and all the voices of everyone were splashed at once.
"The night before yesterday, Fire Leaf City was attacked by unknown forces, I believe that all of you have now understood the situation at that time, at that time, the sound of killing shook the sky, and the city bricks on the other side of Fire Leaf City were shaken out of cracks, I don't know if the Holy Spirit Temple is stationed not far from outside Fire Leaf City, did you hear the shouting of killing?"
"This ......," the knight's face suddenly turned ugly.
The military camp of the Holy Spirit Hall was much closer to the Fire Leaf City than the military camp of the Longyuan Empire, and the sound of shouting and killing soared into the sky that day, and the wilderness was empty, and it could be heard clearly dozens of miles away, and the Holy Spirit Temple naturally heard the shouting of killing.
"Didn't you hear?" Tian Xian continued to ask, "Didn't you see that too? The enemy attacked frantically in front of our city, and even flew into the sky, it was simply overwhelming, there is no city on this desert border except Fire Leaf City, I can see the lights of your barracks at the head of the city, can't your sentinels see that we are being attacked?"
The knight's forehead began to sweat, his eyes wandered, and he could not answer a word.
Tian Xian snorted coldly, "On that day, we were attacked suddenly, and we fought bloodily without preparation, and even the inheritors of the stigmata in the city were mobilized, and we suffered heavy casualties in a short period of time! The tombstone of the war dead is in the west of the city! This is the first bloody ...... in Fire Leaf City."
"The Longyuan Empire can't wait to raze this place now, it's already our luck that they didn't take advantage of the situation to attack, but ...... Why didn't you see the Holy Spirit Temple that wanted to protect Fire Leaf City? while we were bleeding...... What are you doing?"
The knight was covered in cold sweat, his head hung down, and his face was uneasy.
As a servant serving the gods, the Holy Spirit Temple actually didn't rescue Fire Leaf City, which was attacked in front of him!
As a servant of God, how is it possible for the Holy Spirit Temple, how can it not come to the rescue?
For the divinely inspired city to die and not be saved, can faith still be pious?
All the messengers looked at the knight with suspicion, some full of contempt, some pure schadenfreude.
The knight tried to speak several times, but could not.
He really couldn't think of anything to say, Fire Leaf City was close at hand, and the shouts of killing when attacked woke up all the soldiers of the Holy Spirit Temple, and under the lights of Fire Leaf City, the surging fog soldiers in the white mist were clearly visible, it was simply a nightmare.
Hear it clearly! See it really clearly! This is an obvious fact, and it is completely irrefutable.
But if this matter is not dealt with today in front of the envoys of various countries, I am afraid that it will be an extremely serious blow to the reputation of the Holy Spirit Temple.
Does this young man want the Holy Spirit Temple to die?
"Oh! I see!"
Just when everyone was stimulating the knight with their eyes, Tian Xian seemed to figure it out, "The night before yesterday, the fog was thick, and we ourselves didn't know how many enemies there were, and in what direction, I sent a few teams of men and horses to the Holy Spirit Temple camp to ask for help, is it ...... Didn't you see them?"
The knight was stunned for a moment, raised his head and looked at Tianxian, his face full of cold sweat squeezed out a surprised expression, "Please...... Asking for help?"
Tianxian shook his head, "Why, didn't you see them? ”
The envoys suddenly looked at Tianxian strangely, thinking to themselves what the situation was?
Tian Xian said to himself: "Those damned enemies, I don't know where they came from, at that time the fog was thick, my distress soldiers seemed to have not been able to get out, General Gunn has always been cautious, is it because he was afraid of an ambush, so he didn't attack?"
The messengers let out a faint cry of consternation, could it be true?
The knight almost cried, but these two words saved him, otherwise he would be severely punished if he didn't get it right.
"Yes...... Yes!" replied the knight, almost roaring, "at that time! when Admiral Gunn found out about the situation, he was actually preparing...... No, rescue troops were sent, but ...... But the fog was thick and we were ambushed in the fog and had to retreat!"
"Oh...... That's right. Tian Xian smiled kindly, "It seems that I blame you." ”
"No...... Don't dare! The rescue was not successful that day, and General Gunn ...... Let me apologize!"
Tian Xian smiled, "You're welcome, you're welcome...... He is still fighting on the battlefield at his age, I admire him deeply, how dare he apologize. ”
Tian laughed, and the knight hurriedly laughed with him, and the strange atmosphere between the two made the messengers a little baffled.
Obviously, the Holy Spirit Temple was watching from the wall that day, and it did not send even a single soldier at all, which is an extremely bad act.
However, Fire Leaf City didn't mind, which made the situation fundamentally different, and the inspired city didn't blame the Holy Spirit Temple's practices, was there any mystery in this?
The emissaries were skeptical, but they all understood one thing, and it was clear that there was some subtle connection between Fire Leaf City and the Holy Spirit Temple now.
Tian Xian didn't say anything nutritious, and the frightened knight almost lost his soul and then patted his ass and left, leaving the snow for the messengers to stare at, and finally he could only sigh and leave.
Tianxian looked at the departing messenger in front of the upstairs window, and couldn't help but smile.
"Brother Tian, is the concubine preparing some refreshments for Brother Tian to use at night. ”
Tianxian looked back at the fourth girl, took her little hand and smiled, "You are smart, you are too smart to be careful not to marry." ”
The fourth girl giggled, "The concubine is not worried about this......" (To be continued.) )
