Riding the Pheonix Chapter 398: General

What is the Zong family’s intention in bringing him here?

What does the Xuanshi hiding in the Commander's Mansion want to do?

Are there other hidden forces?

They are all unknown.

Yang Shu really didn't have the patience to stay in Baimen Gorge and slowly waited for them to take action.

Might as well give them a chance.

When performing martial arts, they will be isolated into an independent environment. Those nails from various forces in the Zuo Army cannot keep an eye on them throughout the process.

In this way, whether these people are well-intentioned or malicious, there is room for them to show their intentions.

Once and for all.

Ning Xiu commented: "If you do this once and for all, you may catch them all in one fell swoop, or we may be wiped out in one fell swoop."

Yang Shu was dissatisfied: "Brother, I have a request."

"Say."

"Just use your poisonous tongue on your enemies, but can you not use it on yourself?"

"I'm just telling the truth."

"Your truth is like poison, the kind that poisons you too!"

Being unceremoniously undermined by his junior brother, Ning Xiu still didn't react at all, looking indulgent and indulgent.

His behavior made Yang Shu a little embarrassed, so he added: "We are not that unlucky, right?"

"If you're really unlucky, you won't be able to see it anyway."

"..." Yang Shu decided to take back his embarrassment!

Mingwei chuckled and said: "That's fine, we still have the same division of labor as before. Even if the Zong family has malicious intentions, they don't dare to let you die in Baimen Gorge. I will leave it to you to handle the martial arts. As for the Mr. Ning and I are responsible for finding out the mysterious scholar hiding in secret."

……

Ten days is neither fast nor slow.

Before the martial arts performance began, Zong Xu finally came back.

This famous general in the northwest is a fat man who looks very kind.

Not the kind of fat that has a big head and a fat belly, but the kind of fat with big arms and round waist. Tall, strong, just the right amount of fat, looking very majestic.

As soon as he came back and settled the affairs, he invited Yang Shu over.

Zong Xu was not only the Duke of the country, but also a powerful general. He was also an elder. Yang Shu could not show off in front of him, so he had to restrain his arrogance and go to see him.

Zong Xu personally helped him up and said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for several years, and the third young master has become more and more talented."

Asked about the situation of Marquis Boling again.

Yang Shu answered one by one.

After chatting, Zong Xu pointed to Zong Rui on the side and said: "I have heard about your affairs. This boy in my family has been praised a lot since he was a child. He is inevitably arrogant and complacent, thinking that he deserves the best among his peers. First. I offended Senior Brother Ling earlier, and I apologize to Third Young Master on his behalf."

Yang Shu smiled: "General, you're welcome."

Neither was he polite, nor did he mean to settle the matter.

Seeing his reaction, Zong Xu sighed in his heart and said, "I found out when I came back that this boy made a bet with the Third Young Master. It was the dog who offended him first, and we should have apologized. Therefore, the Third Young Master Young Master invites you to come and express your apology. Third Young Master can tell you how to acquiesce, but we will never refuse."

Yang Shu said calmly: "General, your words are serious. A true man must be true to his word. I have made a bet with Mr. Zong, and there is no reason to give up halfway. As for the apology, we will talk about it after we finish the comparison."

The meaning behind the words is that there is no room for change.

Zong Xu could only say: "Speaking of which, our two families have a deep friendship. Your father and I were old acquaintances in our early years and often discussed each other, but later we became far apart and had less contact. The third young master is so talented that he can be called It’s good for this kid in my family to learn from it. If you can regain the old friendship, my ancestors will also feel happy under the spring."

This is deliberately making the matter trivial, treating it as a dispute between their juniors.

Similarly, in order to fight for territory and use martial arts to determine the outcome, what do you say? Zong Rui can do this because he is still young and a junior, but Zong Xu is a great general, and it would be embarrassing to speak out.

Yang Shupi smiled but said: "What Uncle Shi said is that my nephew will definitely ask Brother Zong for advice."

Zong Xu was stunned for a moment. Unexpectedly, he picked up the call quickly this time and immediately called him Uncle Shi.

However, the words have been spoken, so you can’t deny them, right? He could only reply with a smile: "Just think about it this way. Don't worry too much about the outcome. No matter you win or lose, I will ask this kid to apologize to you later. Just treat this time as a discussion between the two of you and make some progress."

Then he said some words of encouragement and allowed him to eat before sending him back politely.

As soon as Yang Shu left, Zong Rui couldn't wait to ask: "Dad, why are you so polite to him? Do you think the child will lose to him?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he received a blow on the forehead.

Zong Xu put aside his kindness and glared: "How dare you say such things to me? What did you say before I went out? I patted my chest and promised to settle this matter well. What happened? I was confused. It’s time to perform martial arts to fight for victory. It’s so noisy that I can’t patrol the border anymore, so I can only rush back.”

Zong Rui was confused by me and cried out: "What happened to Yanwu? I am confident that I can beat him!"

"Then what?" Zong Xu looked at his silly son with a sneer.

"Then..."

Zong Rui was stunned for a moment.

Yes, what next? They brought Yang Shu here not to win against him, but to test...

"Do you know why your father is avoiding you?"

"I know." Zong Rui lowered his head.

"If you are not careful about this ~IndoMTL.com~, it will be a disaster for the entire family. That is why I give it to you. If anything happens, you will take the blame and protect our family. If my father is involved, all of you will run away. No!"

Zong Rui defended: "But dad, we just promised to create opportunities for them to distinguish. Even if we make a bet with Yang San, it won't affect anything..."

"Did your head get caught in the door?" Zong Xu scolded, "You participated in a martial arts exercise with him, what would happen if something happened to him?"

Zong Rui opened his mouth.

"What we are doing, to put it harshly, is to hide the truth from the Holy One. Once something happens to Yang San, the Holy One will know that we are involved in this matter, and then our whole family will be finished! We can only be loyal to sit down People in that position must not be involved in the dispute over the reserve, not even the slightest suspicion!"

"But we brought him here, and that's it..."

"In the Commander-in-Chief's Mansion, we are confident that nothing will happen to Yang San. No matter whether those people can test it out or not, when the time comes, we will just send him away, and what happens next has nothing to do with us. But when it comes to martial arts, we will send him away when the time comes. , can you guarantee it? No matter how monolithic it is, accidents will happen if there are more people."

Zong Rui finally understood.

"So, we have to guarantee that nothing will happen to him during the martial arts performance?"

"That's right." Zong Xu's eyes darkened, "This boy, looking like a dandy, is much more scheming than you. I'm afraid he is deliberately messing up the situation to see what our intentions are. And we still have to To ensure his safety, we can only be extremely careful and survive in the cracks..."

At this point, Zong Xu sighed and patted his son on the shoulder: "Dad, I know I have wronged you. Who told you that your grandfather was confused for a while... Forget it, the son will not say anything about the father's fault. We have passed this. Let’s talk about it later.”...
