People in Terra, poor and weak but invincible

Chapter 919 Although Liberi doesn’t understand, Liberi is very happy

The city wall of Yumen is very high. If you stand on the edge of the wall, you can even overlook half of the scenery of Longmen next door.

But at this moment, the soldiers stationed on the city wall had no intention of appreciating this magnificent man-made landscape.

The twin cities hanging upside down overhead have become even lower, and one can even vaguely see the patterns on the floor tiles in the streets and alleys.

The setting sun in the sky gradually moved westward, but the twin cities became brighter than at noon.

The orange-red light that was slanting down seemed to cast a dazzling veil over the four cities that were facing each other.

Zuo Le climbed up the winding steps of the city wall.

A soldier saw him and immediately stepped forward to remind him:

"Sir, General Zuo is discussing matters with Master Meng of the Sword Forge in the south of the city."

"...Well, I'll wait for a while."

Zuo Le nodded calmly.

His reaction surprised the soldier.

Although my young master is not arrogant and domineering on weekdays, he is also rash in doing things. Why did he suddenly change his temper today?

Just when the soldier was puzzled, he saw Meng Tieyi walking past him with a calm face.

The soldiers were even more surprised.

Although he was just a new recruit, he knew Meng Tieyi's identity and was considered an old senior respected by everyone in Yumen.

When this man came up to him in a threatening manner, he thought that Meng Tieyi wanted to speak up for the military men and have a big quarrel with his own general.

How come after chatting for a while, he just left so calmly?

Meng Tieyi walked past the soldiers and nodded to Zuo Le as a greeting. Zuo Le obediently followed the etiquette of a junior and then walked to find his father.

The two men passed each other and went their separate ways, leaving the soldier standing there scratching the feathers by his ears.

This Liberi was confused for a moment, and then naturally reconciled with himself.

"There are so many things in this land that I don't understand. I'm too lazy to think about them. Anyway, I will follow the general's orders and fight wherever he tells me to fight."

After letting nature take its course, the Liberi quickly returned to his patrol post.

On the other side, Zuo Le also walked to his father's side.

"Were you taught a lesson by the Grand Tutor?" Zuo Xuanliao said calmly.

Zuo Le showed a trace of shame on his face and apologized proactively:

"Dad, I was too impulsive before. I always considered things based on the surface. I didn't know that you and the master had already made plans."

"That doesn't have to be the case."

Zuo Xuanliao's tone was somewhat puzzling.

He had no intention of blaming Zuo Le, and he was feeling a little conflicted.

The youthful mentality is something that many people can’t wait to get rid of when they are young, but then regret it too late, wanting to find it again but unable to.

Zuo Xuanliao always disliked Zuo Le's impulsiveness, but if he saw him so depressed and pretending to be calm, Zuo Xuanliao couldn't help but feel distressed.

After all, Zuo Le was no better than a teenager, but because he was Zuo Xuanliao and the son of a general, he had been holding back his desire to prove himself over the years and not let others laugh at him.

Zuo Xuanliao raised his head.

The towering walls of Yumen made him the person closest to the two cities hanging upside down in the sky.

Zuo Xuanliao can clearly see another self, and can also see the sigh and helplessness in his own eyes.

"Zuo Le, you have had contact with Qi Yan in Shang Shu. What do you think of Qi Yan?" Zuo Xuanliao suddenly asked.

"... Zuo Le can't see through him." Zuo Le said distressedly, "His personality is too weird. He says nonsense and does nonsense, but he can always grasp the development of the situation. To be honest... I'm a little envious."

Zuo Xuanliao laughed softly: "How many people in this land would not envy Qi Yan?"

"Dad, I know you've been anxious these days, but maybe you don't have to be so hard on yourself." Zuo Le comforted him.

Hearing this, Zuo Xuanliao couldn't help but laugh.

He had just secretly felt sorry for Zuo Le, but unexpectedly, Zuo Le came to comfort him, his father, first.

Zuo Le didn't know what his father was thinking, so he said to himself:

"Although I can't see through Qi Yan, after these days of contact, I can understand that he is not a bad person. Maybe he likes to play tricks on people around him, but when he is really in danger, he will be the first person to stand in front of everyone."

"Yes, he has already stood up." Zuo Xuanliao said slowly, "Standing before everyone else on this land."

Zuo Le:?

He had only praised Qi Yan slightly, so why did his father praise him so highly?

No, Dad, when did you become Qi Yan’s fanboy?

"What are you thinking about?"

Zuo Xuanliao noticed that Zuo Le's thoughts were wandering, and brought him back to reality: "Do you think Yumen and Longmen can survive this disaster?"

Zuo Le immediately said confidently: "I think it is possible. Not to mention that Qi Yan will not sit back and watch the two cities fall to the hands of the beast, the guards brought by the Grand Tutor alone are enough to fight the beast!"

"You underestimate the beast, and you also underestimate Qi Yan's attitude at the moment."

Zuo Xuanliao showed a strange smile: "Yan Country is not afraid of giant beasts, but that is based on the whole country's strength and unity. The current Yumen is far from enough.

Perhaps Qi Yan will take action to save the two cities in this battle, but if the Grand Tutor has not made that decision, Qi Yan's figure standing in front will disappear. "

"Dad, what are you talking about?"

"I can't tell you yet."

The conversation between father and son came to a momentary stalemate.

At this moment, a voice that no one expected came from beside them.

"What's the harm in telling him?" Qi Yan walked to Zuo Le's side with a smile, "Will the Master's decision change because of Zuo Le?"

Zuo Xuanliao was a little stunned. He looked up at the upside-down twin cities. There was no one around him and his son, but Qi Yan had clearly appeared next to him.

Qi Yan ignored Zuo Xuanliao's rattle and put his arm around Zuo Le's shoulder, acting like a good brother and saying:

“They are all riddlers, they are bad, I am here to help you solve the riddle, I am good.

You have to remember my kindness. When I don't have money to drink in Rhode Island in the future, you have to take the initiative to come and treat me, understand?"

Zuo Le was stunned for a moment, but nodded without hesitation.

It was just some wine money. Not to mention the wine money, anything related to money had never been a headache for him, the general's son.

Qi Yan was very satisfied and said happily:

"The Yan State's court's attitude towards the giant beast has always been a confrontation between the two factions, with the pro-war faction and the pro-peace faction refusing to give in to each other, forming a delicate balance.

I have no intention of caring who is secretly controlling the birth of this balance, but I only know that the Master is a neutral party and is also the most important person to break this balance. "

Zuo Le understood: "You want the Master to side with one of the factions?"

"I want him to lean towards the pro-friendly camp."

"Because you are also a member of the Behemoth?"

"..."

Seeing Qi Yan suddenly stop talking, Zuo Le was still a little confused, and then he felt someone suddenly lift up his collar.

Then, under Zuo Xuanliao's nervous gaze, Qi Yan carried Zuo Le to the edge of the city wall and hung him directly on the top of the wall.

Zuo Le was a little confused. In front of many soldiers on the city wall and his father, he was just swaying in the wind alone.

"Don't come down, keep listening to the wind blowing for me."

Qi Yan threatened, folded his arms and said: "Although I am not a giant beast, there are many such beings on Rhodes Island. Later, I will attract more of them to face the catastrophe of this land together.

Other forces are fine, but Yan Country has a grudge against the giant beasts. I don’t want those giant beasts of our own to fight hard on the front line and then turn around and get hit in the face by a cannon from Yan Country.

If I were asked to choose between Yan Nation and the giant beasts, I would choose the giant beasts without hesitation, because they can play a greater role than Yan Nation, that's all."

Zuo Xuanliao was not surprised by this, but he felt a little sorry for his son being hung up.

Zuo Le swayed twice in the wind, and suddenly realized:

"So, how the Grand Tutor treats the three sisters of Nian Xiling this time will directly determine your attitude... You are forcing the Grand Tutor to take sides."

"Congratulations, you got the answer right, but there is no reward." Qi Yan clapped his hands softly, "You dare to scold me in front of me, you'd better stay here until Jing's death comes."

"Qi Yan, if that's the case, Mr. Zuo won't be able to stay alive for long."

A burst of refreshing female laughter came from behind Qi Yan.

Qi Yan and Zuo Xuanliao turned around and looked, the former smiled, and the latter couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Ling changed out of the robe she usually wore when traveling and now wore a heroic military uniform. Her long blue hair was tied up and fluttered gently in the desert wind.

The woman was wearing armor and helmet, her face was rosy without any makeup, but she was more beautiful than countless beauties in the world.

A military flag was raised in Ling's hand and then dropped heavily and powerfully to the ground.

"Imperial Guards, follow me up the city walls, line up, and fight!"

As the order was sounded, the armored soldiers lined up in neat rows and went to the top of the city wall. There were no deliberate growls or shouts, but just silence emitted an overwhelming pressure that seemed to be falling from the sky.

In the wind, Ling held the flag in one hand, smiling carefreely and with a bit of arrogance:

"Qi Yan, thanks to your pressure, this imperial army that neither Zuo Xuanliao nor Wei Yanwu dared to touch has now fallen into my hands, allowing me to enjoy myself for once!"

(Ahem, I can’t resist playing dirty. If you find any typos, please @ me.)
