The Golden Age Chapter 919: Ghost Cliff

In Heishui Village, Zhou Hongji and Shen Xuankan both looked solemnly.

Hearing the sound of rapid footsteps, the two looked out the door at the same time and saw Du Zitong rushing in. Zhou Hongji immediately got up and asked urgently: "What's the situation?"

"Brother, they were prepared." Du Zitong said with shame: "Song Lun failed to win the bridge, but they cut off the suspension bridge. Now it is impossible to pass. The more than forty brothers who boarded the suspension bridge did not have time to remove it. , All... all fell into the valley." At this point, he looked annoyed.

"Insufficient successes, more failures." Zhou Hongji said angrily: "This thing can't be done well, what else can I do?" I don't know if I am blaming Song Lun or Du Zitong.

Shen Xuan sighed: "It seems that Xuanyuanchong had guessed that tonight is unusual, so he made arrangements in advance."

"Big brother, from this it can be seen that Xuanyuanchong is indeed rebellious, otherwise why would he prepare in advance?" Du Zitong sneered: "Yuan Bao still thinks he has been wronged. It is really confused."

Zhou Hongji said angrily: "Is it still time to talk about this? As I said, although Huangtuzhai has few people, all of them are very brave. When you spend time and drink, Xuanyuanchong is with his men. Training day and night, I have never been lazy. Now that the suspension bridge is gone, what do I think you do?"

"Big brother, am I not worried that they will immediately rebel after they know that Xuanyuanchong is arrested?" Du Zitong said annoyed: "Since they have to do it sooner or later, naturally they will do it first. I wanted to take advantage of them before they had time to react. He rushed into Huangtu Village in one fell swoop and took control of Huangtu Village. Who knows... who knows that they have taken precautions on the suspension bridge."

Zhou Hongji became more and more angry, grabbed a tea cup, and smashed it on the ground, annoyed: "The suspension bridge is broken. If you want to lay down the Huangtu Village, you can only attack the mountain from the front, but Xuanyuanchong made the Huangtu Village like an iron bucket. Similarly, they still have a grain depot on the mountain, and there is no problem for three to five months." He fisted and said: "If you don't quickly control Huangtu Village, it's like a tiger around you. No one knows when it will pounce on it and take a bite. In the future, we will not only guard against Long Ruijun, but also guard against the nearby Huangtu Village, this...!"

"Brother, I have mobilized people and horses to block the crossing of Huangtuzhai Mountain." Du Zitong said hurriedly, "Xuanyuanchong and the officers and soldiers colluded. I only worry that if the Huangtuzhai group has nowhere to go, they will desperately kill one. Road, go and join the Long Ruijun."

Zhou Hongji shook his body and immediately said: "Yes, fourth brother, even if they can't break the Huangtu Village, they must not be allowed to go down the mountain and join the army. They must send more people to block the road down the mountain for me." Hate said: "We will encircle them to death."

Shen Xuangan shook his head and said: "Brother, the grain in Huangtu Village can even last until the beginning of spring next year. There is no possibility to surround them for a few months." But keep staring at us."

Zhou Hongji's pupils contracted, and he almost forgot that the deadliest Long Ruijun was still watching.

He thinks things in this world are really elusive.

Less than a month ago, Long Ruijun had just entered the Songyang Grassland. Zhou Hongji even regarded Long Ruijun as a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.

But in an instant, the officer army that was close at hand has turned into a fierce tiger staring at it.

The night attack failed, and the brothers merged. It takes many years for Montenegro to accumulate strength, but it only takes one month to decline.

"Big brother, the third brother is right." Du Zitong was also worried: "Let's deploy our soldiers and horses under the Huangtuzhai Mountain, and beware of the Huangtuzhai rushing out to join the army. Once the Long Ruijun knows, they will send troops to come. When the time comes, the soldier Ma Ke guarding at the foot of the mountain will be defeated by the enemy."

Zhou Hongji felt tired, and asked Shen Xuangan: "Lao San, your brain is active, think about what you can do."

"Big Brother, don't worry." Shen Xuan felt calm: "Big Brother, don't you forget that Xuanyuan Chong is not dead yet. Today, Big Brother wants to execute him, I immediately dissuade him, not to save his life, but just in case, I'm just worried about the situation like the present in Huangtuzhai."

At the banquet, Zhou Hong basically wanted to let Xuanyuanchong be slashed with a sharp cut. Forever, he was dissuaded by Shen Xuangan. At that time, Shen Xuangan only said that Xuanyuanchong would be useful, but Without explaining the purpose, Zhou Hongji saved Xuanyuanchong's life, and finally understood the reason at this time.

"You mean using Xuanyuan Chong to make Huangtu Village surrender?" Zhou Hongji was naturally not stupid, and immediately understood.

Shen Xuangan smiled and said: "Xuanyuanchong knows he is bound to die, but can he let go of those people in Huangtu Village? Huangtu Village is defensive, just because Xuanyuanchong is worried that we will kill Huangtu Village, if the older brother promises not Because of Xuanyuanchong, other people in Huangtuzhai will be involved, and he may not be able to persuade him to let Huangtuzhai lay down his weapons."

Zhou Hongji hurriedly said: "Do you think Xuanyuanchong can agree?"

"If my eldest brother can trust me, I will persuade Xuanyuanchong." Shen Xuan said with a serious expression: "I can't guarantee that I will succeed, but I can always give it a try."

Zhou Hongji thought for a while and nodded: "As long as Huangtu Village can disarm and surrender, I can renounce it."

It’s been lighted up early, and the fine snow is flying. There is a protruding cliff in the back mountain of Heishui Village. It hangs in the air like a sword out of its sheath. In the beginning, it was used to punish the traitors who betrayed Montenegro.

Once someone rebels and falls into the hands of Black Mountain, they will be locked in the stone house. The iron door here is locked, but the side facing the cliff is a wooden door that can be opened at any time. The bottomless abyss.

After entering the cliff of Ghost Gate, no food or water will be provided, and he will either starve to death in it, or he will jump into the abyss on his own to end the torture.

This is an idea that Zhou Hongji came up with himself. According to what he said at the time, even a traitor had a brotherhood. He was a scholar who values ​​love and righteousness and does not want to see the blood of brothers before. Think of such a way to punish.

However, compared to enduring hunger and torment at Ghost Gate Cliff, it's not as happy as a knife.

The stone house has long been wrapped in white snow, and the intersection is guarded by guards. Without the consent of the master, no one can step into the cliff of the ghost gate.

Shen Xuangan stepped on the snow and took out the road that Zhou Hongji drove. After passing, he walked slowly to the front of the stone house. Through the iron railing, you could clearly see Xuanyuanchong sitting cross-legged inside.

At this time, the weather is cold and the stone house is not surrounded on all sides. Here is just a row of iron railings. The cold wind can easily flow in. If the body is not strong enough, once the weather is too cold, you can’t wait to starve to death. , Will be frozen to death in it.

Xuanyuanchong's limbs were all handcuffed with chains. Hearing the sound of footsteps, he turned his head slightly and looked over. Seeing Shen Xuangan, he did not show any unexpected expressions, and his expression remained unchanged.

Shen Xuan

I felt that I lost a wine bag and went in. Xuanyuanchong did not hesitate to pick up the wine bag, lifted it with both hands, and took a big mouthful. Then he smiled lightly: "You can still send me a bag of wine. It's worthy of the brotherhood of these years."

"Why do you want to do this?" Shen Xuangan was wearing thick cotton clothes, sitting down directly on the snow, looking at Xuanyuanchong in the stone room through the iron railings, and sighed lightly: "I told you, There is no good banquet, you come to the banquet, there will be no good results."

Xuanyuanchong didn't answer, staring at Shen Xuangan, and asked, "I only want to know one thing now."

"I know what you want to ask." Shen Xuangan said calmly: "You want to know, the inner ghost on the mountain, is it me?"

Xuanyuanchong just stared at Shen Xuangan without speaking.

"The evidence this time was obtained by Du Zitong's men." Shen Xuan said indifferently: "If you did not send the topographic map, then is there someone in your Loess Village colluding with the army? The topographic map is Du Zitong. Give it to the master, is it the map that Du Zitong prepared himself to use as evidence of framing you? You know very well that Du Zitong thinks he is brave and good at fighting, and always feels that he should lead the army. Over the years, your limelight is completely overshadowed. Because of him, his hatred for you is already very deep." After a pause, he continued: "D Yanran, there is a more terrifying possibility."

"What?"

"The so-called criminal evidence was forged by the master and Du Zitong." Shen Xuan felt extremely calm, and said slowly: "Du Zitong is brave and illiterate. He can't think of such a strategy. The map is detailed. Incomparably, with Du Zitong's ability, he did not have the ability to draw such a map. On the contrary, he was a master. He was a scholar and knew the topographical strongholds on the mountain well. If the map came from the hands of the master, it is not impossible. "

Xuanyuan Chong raised his head slightly, thoughtfully.

"You and I know in my heart that the boss is worried that you are thinking about the top spot. Du Zitong hates that every time you send troops, it is up to you to decide on the defense of the mountain." Shen Xuangan stroked his beard and stared at Xuanyuan Chong Dao. : "It is not impossible for them to join forces to get rid of you."

Xuanyuanchong finally smiled indifferently, and said: "What you said, you can only suspect that they designed me to be an inner ghost, but it can't prove that you are not an inner ghost. Last night attack, there must be an inner ghost betrayed. The inner ghost is not me, and it is impossible to be the master. As you said, Du Zitong is brave and unscrupulous, he likes this kind of unscrupulous days of robbing the house, so the possibility of him being the inner ghost is very small. On the contrary, it is you Shen Xuan feeling. , The mind is so deep that people can't see through, it may not be a ghost."

"At the banquet last night, why didn't you expose it in public? I told you in advance the plan to kill Xuanyuan?"

Xuanyuan Chong shook his head, and said: "You are here today, of course, not to deliver wine."

"After they captured you last night, they were going to attack Huangtu Village immediately." Shen Xuan said, "However, Yang Shixin was prepared to cut off the suspension bridge, killing and wounding dozens of brothers. Right now Huangtu Village has turned upside down. They hope you will come forward and let the brothers from Huangtuzhai disarm and surrender."

Xuanyuan smiled and said, "Is that why he didn't kill me last night?"

"He doesn't kill you, but you are begging for death." Shen Xuangan stared at Xuanyuanchong, and said calmly: "Actually, when I told you the plan, you already believed it in your heart, and you have countless ways to avoid it. This catastrophe. But you still went to the banquet alone, presumably the altar of wine is poisonous, and you know it too." Frowning, he said solemnly: "Knowing you must die, but still going to die, what do you want to do?" /
