Chapter Seventy-Eight: Meet Cao Qiudao Again
Billowing black smoke continued to ignite everywhere in Linzi City, and soon enveloped this originally prosperous city.
Countless Qin soldiers were wandering around in Linzi City, strangling the remaining Qi soldiers in Linzi City.
The faces of these Qin soldiers were almost full of smug smiles, they never dreamed that this attack on the Qi State would go so smoothly.
Since Wu Anjun Bai Sheng took over the handsome seal, he led the Qin soldiers all the way to Linzi City. Along the way, the Qin soldiers were so overwhelming that no matter how the Qi soldiers blocked them, they could not resist the attack from the powerful enemy. Even, the 200,000 army led by Qi Xiang Housheng was killed by Wu Anjun Bai Sheng with only 50,000 soldiers and horses.
These Qin soldiers easily attacked Linzi City, the capital of Qi State, and accepted the surrender of Qi Wangjian.
At this point, the Qi Kingdom of the Tian clan, which had been inherited for more than 200 years, was declared extinct.
It's just that when the Qin soldiers were celebrating the fall of the Qi State, no one noticed that Bai Sheng, the commander of the army, had disappeared.
It's still the Jixia School Palace, or the stargazing platform.
Gu Xiao brought his own soldiers to this familiar place.
It's just that everything in front of him surprised him.
When he first came here 20 years ago, the scenery around the observatory was pleasant, and the birds were singing, and it was a very peaceful and peaceful place. However, when I came here again this time, the original fragrance of birds and flowers had already turned into dead branches and leaves.
The once peaceful and tranquil place is now only a cold and murderous atmosphere.
All this seems to symbolize the national fortune of the Qi country!
This originally peaceful place now seems to have fallen into decay with the fall of the Qi Kingdom.
Gu Xiao came to the stargazing platform alone, and walked towards the stargazing platform step by step, his steps were very calm, without the slightest hesitation.
When Gu Xiao walked up to the stargazing platform, he saw Cao Qiudao.
Twenty years have passed, Cao Qiudao has long since lost his former demeanor, his black hair has turned silver-white, and his originally ruddy face has now become pale. In his hand, he was also carrying a broadsword, and at this moment he was looking at everything in Linzi City.
"What are you looking at?" Gu Xiao walked to Cao Qiudao's side and asked leisurely.
Cao Qiudao was not surprised by his appearance, he didn't even turn his head, and said indifferently: "I'm watching the demise of a country!" ”
"Haha, right in front of your eyes, the Qi Kingdom is destroyed!" Gu Xiao said with a smile.
Cao Qiudao turned his head sideways, looked at him, and said, "No! I'm watching the demise of the Qin State! ”
"Are you kidding?" Gu Xiao couldn't help laughing.
Although he was smiling on his face, he was already on guard in his heart. No one would know that the current powerful Qin State had perished in just a few decades because of tyranny, and now Cao Qiudao actually said that he was watching the fall of the Qin State. Could it be that he had already predicted the end of Great Qin?
Cao Qiudao turned around, faced Gu Xiao, and said, "The old man never jokes!" ”
Gu Xiao sneered: "Then you are still telling jokes in front of me!" ”
"No, the old man didn't tell a joke, your Qin State will soon perish!" Cao Qiu said.
Gu Xiao said: "How can you see it? ”
Cao Qiu said: "You Qin people are brutal, and they are destined not to last long!" ”
Gu Xiao couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he heard this, he thought that Cao Qiudao, a sword idiot, had already learned Zou Yan's set. It turns out that it's just that he's talking nonsense.
Gu Xiao sneered: "It's a pity, even if the Qin State really has a day of destruction, you can't see it anymore." In my eyes, sooner or later, my Great Qin will flourish and create the most glorious page in the land of Kyushu! ”
"You can't see this day anymore!" Cao Qiudao's tone turned cold, and he lifted the sword in his hand - the sword of the sword!
With a bang, Cao Qiudao pulled out his sword from the sheath, even though he had entered his twilight years, the sword in his hand was still so sharp, as if he was in his prime.
With a bang, Gu Xiao also drew his sword out of its sheath.
"Sword name, please advise!" Cao Qiudao drew his sword in his hand and said coldly.
Gu Xiao also drew his sword in his hand and said, "Sword hero, please advise!" ”
After speaking, the two of them saluted each other at the same time.
This ritual has nothing to do with mutual enmity, it is just a simple etiquette.
After the salute, the two stood up straight at the same time, facing each other, and the two sharp swords in their hands flashed with cold light in the sun.
The four looked at each other, and both of them looked at each other without giving in.
At this moment, Cao Qiudao's desire to kill Gu Xiao can be said to be unprecedentedly high. No one knows how much Cao Qiudao regrets that he didn't kill Gu Xiao back then.
Many times, Cao Qiudao wondered if he had killed the other party on this stargazing platform back then, and things would not have been so bad.
For a long time, Cao Qiudao, like everyone else, has regretted and regretted the act of letting the tiger go back to the mountain. If he hadn't let the tiger return to the mountain back then, but had killed the kid in front of him and his apprentice, then the Six Kingdoms might not have been wiped out now.
This is the thought that Cao Qiudao and others have appeared.
It's just a pity that it's already too late now.
Now, among the six eastern countries, the last country, the Qi State, has also fallen under the iron hooves of the Qin people, and it is too late to regret letting the tiger return to the mountain.
There is only one thing Cao Qiudao can do now, and that is to kill the person in front of him!
