The Mythical Version of the Three Kingdoms: The Evil God Arrives

Chapter 439 Classic Plot
"Do you two have anything else to say? If not, I will launch the final attack. If there is anyone from a noble family you want to protect, please tell me quickly. I might accidentally kill a few unlucky guys with my sword later." Yang Ji asked Zhou Yu and Sun Ce.

Zhou Yu and Sun Ce's faces darkened. After hearing what Yang Ji said, it seemed that he was not going to let some people survive.

Sun Ce was about to speak when he was silenced by Zhou Yu, who asked, "What is the standard for the unlucky guy you are talking about?" Zhou Yu knew one thing very well. After Yang Ji attacked Shouchun City, although he would not kill most people, some people must be liquidated.

"Standard?" Yang Ji was stunned. Since when did there have to be a standard for death in war? If one really had to set a standard, it would probably be strength. I am stronger than you, so I won, that's all.

"Don't worry, you won't have any objection to the people who can be included in the list. You may even applaud. I'm not a bloodthirsty person." Yang Ji waved his hands, indicating that he was acting according to simple moral concepts and would not wrongly accuse anyone.

Zhou Yu was silent. Simple moral concepts? If we really follow simple moral concepts, more people will die, right? After all, in this era, if we really adhere to simple moral concepts to survive, basically no one can survive. Even if someone can survive, it is only because of temporary luck. Sooner or later, they will die because of bad luck.

"How about inviting Uncle Yuan back to take charge of this matter?" Sun Ce suggested cautiously from the side. He found that the man in front of him seemed to be a ruthless person.

Even he knew that if those people were dealt with according to simple moral concepts, the death toll would be huge. It would be better to call Yuan Shu back to preside over this matter. At least Yuan Shu killed people according to Han law.

"Let Yuan Gonglu do it." Yang Ji thought for a while and said, "It's a pity that he is not in Shouchun now, otherwise it would not be impossible to let him do it." The opportunity has been given to them, it depends on whether they can know how to save themselves.

After hearing what Yang Ji said, Sun Ce and Zhou Yu looked at each other and understood what Yang Ji meant. Before Yuan Shu appeared in front of them, he would deal with those people according to his own rules. If Yuan Shu returned to Shouchun, then he would leave the matter to Yuan Shu.

Sun Ce signaled Zhou Yu with his eyes: [Uncle Yuan wouldn't really have some secret agreement with Taishan, otherwise why would he agree to let Uncle handle this matter? ]

Zhou Yu also used his eyes to respond to Sun Ce's question: [I don't know about that, maybe Lord Yuan and Taishan really reached some agreement.

However, now is not the time to discuss these things. The most important thing now is to find Yuan Gong back and let him preside over this matter. 】

Sun Ce blinked again and asked Zhou Yu: [Why should we care about the lives of those guys? Isn't it better to let them end like this? ] Zhou Yu saw some anger in Sun Ce's eyes. After all, these people also accounted for a considerable part of the cause and effect of their ending today.

[It's not that we want to take care of him, but the person in front of us wants us to take care of him.] Zhou Yu said calmly with his eyes. Yang Ji wanted to make trouble with them, which Zhou Yu had thought of a long time ago, otherwise Yang Ji would not have brought them back to Shouchun.

Similarly, calling Yuan Shu back to deal with the matter was also one of Yang Ji's plans. He wanted to bring the matter under the jurisdiction of the aristocratic families and use the aristocratic families to check and balance each other.

Moreover, while classifying the matter as an internal dispute within the aristocratic family, it also gave the two of them an opportunity to get closer to them, just like Cao Cao who was watching them vigilantly.

They were all captives, so why was Cao Cao so wary of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu? It was simply because of the factor of checks and balances. This is also why they both got the opportunity so quickly instead of having to wait as long as Cao Cao did.

Is Cao Cao naturally wary of Sun Ce and Zhou Yu? No, he had to show a certain hostility towards Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. If he got together with Sun Ce and Zhou Yu, it would be difficult for Yang Ji, Chen Xi and Liu Bei.

After receiving Zhou Yu's answer, Sun Ce said that he didn't understand and decided to leave the matter to Zhou Yu to resolve.

Sun Ce's reaction did not surprise Zhou Yu. After all, Sun Ce had always been like this, habitually leaving matters other than charging into combat to Zhou Yu to solve. Anyway, Zhou Yu could always solve these problems perfectly.

While Sun Ce and Zhou Yu were flirting with each other, Cao Ren and Le Jin had completely broken through the defenses of Cheng Pu, Huang Gai and Han Dang and captured them alive.

Originally, these three people wanted to resist, but the clouds on their side had already dissipated, and they had no way to face the charge led by two warriors with internal energy out of their bodies. In the end, they were seriously injured by Cao Ren and Le Jin.

It has to be said that veterans are veterans. They will fight to the end even if they know they can’t win. This is in stark contrast to those guys who escape before the battle. So Cao Renle Jin chose to give them a quick death by beating them severely so that they could not see what was going to happen next.

"General, someone from the city came out and said he wanted to talk to you." A messenger ran over to report to Yang Ji.

Hearing the messenger's words, Yang Ji was stunned. What was that? The people in the city wanted to talk to him? What? What could they talk about? What was there to talk about?

"What else did they say?" Yang Ji's face was somewhat amazed. He suspected that he had encountered a classic plot from a novel.

"They also said that if the general didn't want to negotiate with them, they would fight the general to the end." The messenger said truthfully, and at the end he added: "Their attitude is very arrogant and they don't look like deserters at all."

Hearing the messenger's words, Yang Ji's mouth twitched. Why did he have to see a classic scene of a villain's intelligence being reduced at the last minute? With the survival philosophy of the aristocratic family, would the plot of intelligence being reduced really happen at this time? Yang Ji couldn't help but look at Zhou Yu. The villain's intelligence being reduced, Zhou Yu could also do this kind of plot.

"Hey, you don't think I did this, do you?" Zhou Yu was also shocked by the stupid behavior of the noble families in the city, but he really didn't do it.

"Isn't your spiritual talent the aura of lowering intelligence?" Yang Ji expressed his doubt very bluntly. Although he didn't know whether Zhou Yu's aura of lowering intelligence could achieve this classic villain's lowering of intelligence scenario, Zhou Yu really had this ability and also had the motive to commit the crime.

Zhou Yu's face froze. What kind of name did Yang Ji get? Although this name was indeed in line with his spiritual talent, he really didn't like this name. He thought it was good to stand out from the crowd.

"Why, don't tell me that your spiritual talent is not to restrict the enemy's thinking and weaken the enemy's IQ in a range. This is definitely an aura that reduces intelligence." Yang Ji said with interest. Anyway, no matter how Zhou Yu explained it, Yang Ji would call Zhou Yu's spiritual talent an aura that reduces intelligence.

Zhou Yu's expression changed. Although he had known that his spiritual talent would be known by others, it was beyond his expectation that Yang Ji could know it so clearly. He remembered that he had not used his spiritual talent on Yang Ji. "I didn't use my spiritual talent on them. They made this choice completely out of their own heart." Zhou Yu said with a dark face. Since meeting Yang Ji, how many times has his calm state of mind been broken?

"Really?" Yang Ji looked at Zhou Yu with a smile. It was rare to see Zhou Yu's expression like this. Should he use the secret technique of recording images to record this scene? Presumably, a girl who likes to write taboo novels will be very excited after seeing this.

Zhou Yu looked at Yang Ji with some suspicion. There seemed to be an inexplicable wave sweeping over him just now. He suspected that Yang Ji had done something, but he could not find any evidence.

Yang Ji put away the secret mirror with satisfaction, and said to the messenger: "Tell them that if they want to surrender, they should surrender quickly and stop complaining." Yang Ji waved his hand, signaling the messenger to go and tell that idiot quickly.

"Oh, that's right." Yang Ji stopped the messenger who had just set off and said, "Tell them that if they dare to threaten me with the people in the city, I don't mind completely destroying their family heritage and ending it in this era."

Although Yang Ji's voice was gentle, Zhou Yu felt an inexplicable chill, which made Zhou Yu believe that Yang Ji was not joking, he was serious.

Family inheritance is what aristocratic families value most. I hope those guys can make the right choice. Otherwise, Yang Ji, who holds a powerful weapon, will not get involved with these guys.

Soon, the various forces in the city made their own choices. Faced with Yang Ji's warning, they were intimidated and did not dare to do anything to the people in the city.

The reason why they dared to speak to Yang Ji like this before was because of the people in the city. Given how much Liu Bei valued the people, Yang Ji would not joke about the safety of the people in the city.

Unfortunately, they completely underestimated Yang Ji. They threatened the safety of the people in the city, and Yang Ji threatened them in return with their family inheritance.

As for whether Yang Ji could end their family inheritance in this era, they believed that Yang Ji could do it. If even Liu Bei, who possessed this level of military power, could not do such a thing, then what were the matters of those disappeared family lineages in history?

"Wow, these guys surrendered so quickly, even faster than your brother." Yang Ji glanced at the aristocratic family troops who began to lay down their weapons after their battle line was broken by Le Jin, and then looked at Sun Quan, Zhang Zhao and others who were still resisting stubbornly.

Yang Ji was a little surprised that Zhang Zhao had persisted until now. This was not right. Shouldn't Zhang Zhao be a surrenderist? How come he became a war advocate?

When Sun Ce heard Yang Ji mention Sun Quan, his heart tightened. He almost forgot that his brother was also on the battlefield. He hurriedly looked in Sun Quan's direction and saw that Sun Quan was fighting hard against the mental barrier of Zhang Zhao and others.

Seeing Sun Quan holding a knife and slashing, Sun Ce was also stunned for a while. Sun Quan was holding a knife and slashing the enemy on the battlefield. What kind of dreamy scene was this? He couldn't help but start to wonder if he was seeing things, and that person in the picture was not his own brother at all.

"How about you two go and persuade those guys?" Yang Ji said to Sun Ce and Zhou Yu. This was also one of the reasons why he brought Sun Ce and Zhou Yu to Shouchun, but he didn't expect it to be used in this kind of scenario.

After hearing Yang Ji's words, Sun Ce did not rush out immediately, but looked at Zhou Yu. Although he was not willing to use his brain, he also understood one thing, that is, the more times like this, the more he should not be impulsive.

Zhou Yu nodded to Sun Ce, indicating that he could go find Sun Quan. After Sun Ce rushed out, Zhou Yu looked at Yang Ji and said, "What else do you want us to do? Tell us all at once."

It was not surprising to Zhou Yu that Zhang Zhao and others had persisted to this extent. After all, he and Sun Ce did not deliberately conceal their presence, so it was not surprising that Zhang Zhao and others saw them.

How could Zhou Yu not know what kind of character Zhang Zhao had? So Zhang Zhao and his men had to hold out until Sun Ce and Zhou Yu showed up to persuade them to surrender. After all, being persuaded to surrender by Sun Ce and Zhou Yu sounded better than surrendering.

"What do you think I need you two to do?" Yang Ji said to Zhou Yu with a smile. He originally didn't have to do so much, but Chen Xi wrote to him asking him not to make the relationship between future colleagues so awkward.

What could Yang Ji, who had not experienced much office struggle, do? He could only follow the advice of senior Chen Xi, a veteran in the workplace, and make some arrangements.

Zhou Yu was silent for a moment. He wondered whether Yang Ji would bargain or not. He actually gave the choice back to him.

Although Yang Ji's words could be interpreted as - what you give must satisfy me - but Zhou Yu could actually hear that Yang Ji did not mean that. He just wanted Zhou Yu and Sun Ce to show some respect, give each other face and let the matter pass.

"Okay, in that case, I will ask Bofu to present the jade seal to Lord Xuande after I go back." Zhou Yu took a deep breath, and then calmly stated the fact that the jade seal was in their hands, even though Cao Cao, Zhuge Liang and Cheng Yu were right in front of them.

Although Zhuge Liang and Cheng Yu were also very interested in the imperial seal, they knew that it was not something they could get their hands on, so they just listened to the rumors.

But, it was different for Cao Cao. He was an eyewitness of what happened back then. Oh, Yang Ji in front of him was also an eyewitness.

Cao Cao gritted his teeth, his face somewhat gloomy. In the past, that ruthless Li Ru had used the imperial seal to divide the princes of Guandong. Now that the imperial seal appeared before his eyes again, he really didn't know what to say.

"It is to be returned to the Han Dynasty, not presented to Lord Xuande." Yang Ji corrected Zhou Yu's wrong wording. The jade seal belongs to the Han Dynasty, not to Liu Bei alone. This point must be made clear.

As for the future...that's a matter for the future.
