Plan to cut off the nine states

Mu Tianzi did not expect that he would be released. After leaving the city, he looked back frequently until he was sure that no arrows would suddenly be shot from the city. Then he galloped towards the camp dozens of miles away.

Baimu Tianwang was summoning all the new troops to join him. They had not yet arrived, and he hoped that Gongfan’s army would surrender voluntarily, so he camped in a place far away from Li Li Pass.

The new troops camped separately, very close to each other, but separated by fences, and could only pass through small gates.

Mu Tianzi was eager to enter his camp, but he had to pass Baimu Tianwang’s territory first.

He was a cautious person. Before meeting his subordinates, he did not want to meet Baimu Tianwang alone, so he dismounted early, grabbed a handful of dust and wiped it on his face, abandoned his horse and walked into the camp. When he saw the sentry, he claimed to be a soldier under "Ba Yimao" and had been separated before.

"Ba Yimao" was a small leader under him.

The rules of the Jiangshi Army were not strict. As long as the other party had a Hanzhou accent and did not look like an officer or soldier, he would be allowed to pass.

Emperor Mu hurried into the camp with a hunched back. He inquired about the direction of his own camp and walked with his head down, hoping not to be seen by acquaintances.

What made him feel at ease was that the camp of the King of Bitterness was still there and had not been merged with other camps.

Everything went well, but he was recognized at the gate of his own camp.

The gatekeeper was stunned. As soon as he said the word "you", he was covered by Emperor Mu's mouth. He looked back at the nearby camp of the King of Hundred Eyes and whispered: "Don't make a sound. Summon all the big leaders to see me."

Emperor Mu walked quickly towards his tent. He was recognized by some soldiers on the way. He didn't say hello to anyone.

There was already someone in his tent.

Prime Minister Mu was Emperor Mu's younger brother. When his brother was away, he always took charge of the army. Therefore, he did not follow him when he went to Sangcheng last time.

Prime Minister Mu was attacking the plate of meat in front of him with all his strength. In order to avoid being talked about, he never allowed others to enter when he was eating. He couldn't help but feel annoyed when he heard the footsteps. He looked up and saw the person coming. He was stunned for a moment.

Until he walked into the tent, Emperor Mu finally put his mind at ease and laughed: "I'm back, what's wrong, are you not welcome?"

Prime Minister Mu hurriedly got up, wiped his hands on his clothes, took a few steps forward, and showed a surprised smile on his face, "Brother, what's wrong..."

Emperor Mu walked past his brother, sat on the chair, grabbed the remaining meat on the table and ate it fiercely. After eating a few mouthfuls, he said: "Bring the wine."

"I just drank it all, I'll go get a pot of new wine." Prime Minister Mu hurried out of the tent and came back soon, holding a pot of new wine in both hands, "It's not hot yet..."

"It doesn't matter, bring it quickly."

Emperor Mu was thirsty and hungry. He took the wine and drank a big sip from the spout, and ate two pieces of meat. Finally, he recovered, "I thought I couldn't come back, everything It's like a dream - I asked the big boss to come over, but why can't I see anyone? "

"I just ran into a few people and asked them to wait in other tents. I mean that I will go to see them after I have eaten and drunk enough."

King Mu knew that he looked too embarrassed, and smiled: "That's right, but there is no rush to eat and drink. Get a towel, wipe my face and go to see the big boss. Let them know as soon as possible that I am back safely. The Hundred Eyed Heavenly King will also know soon. Before seeing him, I have to meet with my brothers first."

"Of course, brother, you have considered it carefully. There is no towel here. You wait a while." Prime Minister Mu hurried out of the tent again. Although his status in the army is second only to the Heavenly King, he still acts like an attendant in front of his brother.

King Mu felt at ease. He ate another piece of meat, wiped his hands, got up and changed his clothes, thinking about what to say to the big boss later, so that he could describe this unexpected release as a heroic escape.

After changing clothes, his brother had not returned yet. Emperor Mu paced back and forth in the tent, patching up a few small loopholes in the story. When he heard the sound of the curtain being lifted, he said dissatisfiedly: "It's just a hand towel, why would you need it..."

The person who came in was not his brother, Prime Minister Mu, but a soldier of the Advent Army whose face was a little familiar but whose name he could not remember.

"Who are you?" Emperor Mu said angrily. No one was allowed to enter his tent at will.

The soldier said nothing, looked at him, and stood aside. Then three more soldiers came in and stood on both sides.

Emperor Mu felt uneasy and did not expel these people. Instead, he took two steps back and looked at the place where weapons were usually placed. Fortunately, although Prime Minister Mu occupied the tent, he did not change his habit. A few steps away from him, there were two knives and a steel whip on the box.

Xu Dashi, the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly King, had an injury on his left foot and was a little lame. He usually walked slowly, and outsiders could hardly see it. He himself was very careful to conceal it and rarely walked with big strides.

Xu Dashi was neither tall nor short, neither fat nor thin, which was quite inconsistent with his illustrious reputation. He walked slowly and looked a little bad, as if he was sick.

"King of the Bitter Heaven passed by my camp, why didn't he say hello?"

"Ah, he was in a hurry, eager to meet his brothers. Look, I changed my clothes and will go to see the Hundred Eyes King later." Mu Tianzi took a step sideways, closer to the weapon.

"That was because I was too anxious. As soon as I heard the news, I immediately came to see King of the Bitter Heaven. How did you come back?"

"I heard that the Hundred Eyes King gathered all the troops to ask for punishment, and the subordinates of the Godly King were scared and didn't keep a close watch. I found an opportunity to sneak out."

"Congratulations. What about the Demon-Subduing King?"

"Unfortunately, he didn't seize the opportunity."

"Alas, this is called everyone has their own destiny, such as the Godly King and the Sun-Pointing King. What happened at that time that caused the two kings to die together?"

"It's a long story. Can the Hundred-Eyed Heavenly King wait for a while? After I meet my brothers, it will take at least half an hour, and then I will go and visit in person."

Xu Dashi seemed not to have heard these words and continued: "There are rumors that the two heavenly kings died unjustly and were killed by traitors."

Mu Tianzi pointed at himself and said in surprise: "Me? If I were a 'traitor', how could I be imprisoned by the subordinates of King Shenxing? How could I escape alone?"

"If you ask me to guess, although you killed the two kings, the first half of your plot failed to succeed, and instead you were caught. You didn't escape, but you were released and shouldered a heavy responsibility."

"An important task? What important task?"

"To alienate all the big bosses, you said you were going to see me later. Didn't you have good intentions?"

Mu Tianzi was furious, "Xu Dashu, I treat you as a guest, so I respect you very much. Don't push yourself too far. This is my camp, and I am the King of Destruction of Suffering..."

Xu Dashi nodded repeatedly, with a smile on his face, "You are right, except for one thing. You are not the King of Destruction."

"Um?"

"King Ku Mie Tian is still named Mu, but he is no longer your Emperor Mu - oh, I really don't understand, why do you have such a name? Do you think you can suppress it?"

"Prime Minister Mu is my younger brother, and he dares to take my title!" Emperor Mu became even more angry.

"The new king has returned to his old name, Mu Jian. What a great name. For people like us, it's enough to call ourselves the king. Don't play tricks on your name."

Mu Tianzi took a step forward, grabbed a knife on the box, and pulled it out of its sheath, "I don't believe it, let my brother come in."

Xu Dashi was unmoved, "The new king is too embarrassed to come in to see his brother. I advise you to save some face for your brother, put down the knife, kneel down and be bound. If you don't make trouble, I will also give you a good pleasure." , not to embarrass you.”

"Prime Minister Mu, come in and see me!" Emperor Mu shouted loudly.

There was no sound outside.

Xu Dashi sighed softly, "My flag is missing a King's Eye. I have nowhere to ask for it. Please do it for me, Brother Mu."

Mu Tianzi usually acted calmly, but at this time, he also became fierce. He cursed, pulled out the other knife, and held it with both hands, "You want my eyeball, and I also want your other." It's a leg. If you have the ability to challenge me, if I lose, I'll kill you, not to mention the eyes. You can take your heart, liver, spleen, and kidneys as well."

"We are all kings, how can we behave like this?" Xu Dashu waved his hand, and the four soldiers drew their swords. After they dispersed, they slowly approached Emperor Mu.

"People outside, listen, King Ku Mie Tian has returned to camp, and whoever comes to save the Savior will be heavily rewarded. I will share the property equally with him!" Emperor Mu still held out a glimmer of hope.

Xu Dashi showed a trace of surprise and looked back for a while. When he saw no one came in, he turned back and said with a smile: "Everyone who doesn't have you outside has been taken away by the new king. Brother Mu is also true, why do you need to be a spearman for others? Now that the king is withering, there are only a few left. You Mu brothers can definitely become kings at the same time, but you suddenly came back - the new king is also in trouble, so he has to ask me for help. "

"He is just your dog, what kind of king is he?" Mu Tianzi roared, and rushed towards Xu Dashi with a knife, but was stopped by four soldiers.

Emperor Mu was able to become the king of heaven because he was outstanding. He danced with two swords like a tiger and a tiger, and the four soldiers did not approach him, but they just prevented him from wandering around.

The tent was not big, and there was hardly any space left for the five people fighting. Xu Dashi did not avoid it, but watched it with great interest.

Mu Tianzi suddenly felt his mind sinking. His feet slipped and he almost fell. He couldn't help but feel horrified.

Xu Dashi saw this and smiled: "Is the wine sent by the new king delicious?"

His own brother actually drugged the wine. Emperor Mu was anxious and angry, and swung his sword to attack one person, hoping to open up the situation, break out of the tent, and maybe find his cronies in the camp.

But the effect of the medicine became stronger and stronger. Mu Tianzi used too much force and fell forward, throwing the knife in his hand.

The four soldiers raised their knives to chop. Xu Dashe said, "Don't chop at the vital points. The Eye of Heaven must be taken alive to be useful."

Mu Tianzi was stabbed twice in the leg and screamed in pain, but he felt much clearer and regretful. He struggled to turn around and said to Xu Dashi who was approaching: "Hundred-Eyed Heavenly King, we once worshiped the same incense stick." …”

"So your eyes will be sewn on the top of the flag. Do you prefer the left eye or the right eye? I only want one, and I will get a second one from another king if I have the chance."

"I...I...please spare my life, I will be your pawn."

"I don't lack pawns, but I lack the king's eye." Xu Dashu pulled out the dagger, looked at it for a while, and said with a smile, "I think your left eye is better."

Emperor Mu knew that he would not be spared, so he shouted loudly: "Xu Laizi, if you kill me today, he will die at the hands of Xu Chu!"

Xu Dashi was stunned, "Who is Xu Chu?"

Mu Tianzi laughed and used all his strength to hit the knife in the hand of a soldier. He would rather commit suicide than have his eyes removed alive.

Mu Tianzi's chest was bleeding profusely and he fell heavily. Xu Dashi sighed and rushed over to take action, "It's a pity, it's a pity. There should be one breath left that can be used...Who is Xu Chu?"

A man happened to walk into the tent and replied: "Xu Chu is the King of Wu."
