I have a weird dynasty

Chapter 464: Delaying Time (Additional chapters in October with 10 monthly tickets)

At the pass of Mingyue Mountain, on the city wall of Chaotian Pass.

Zhao Yunshu, Zheng Xuan, Liu Tianyou, and Yu Da stood together, looking outside the mountain with serious expressions.

The smoke and dust from the explosion had slowly dissipated, and there was silence outside the mountain. The enemy had no intention of exploring further inside.

The two brothers Luo Dayong and Luo Danian came from Mingyue Mountain. After climbing the city wall, Luo Danian wiped the sweat off his head and said, "Most of the people have moved to the Dawn Base at the foot of the mountain, but there are still some elderly people who are reluctant to leave, saying that they can't bear to leave the food in the fields."

Yu Da muttered when he heard this, "My life is about to be lost, and you want to give me food?"

Having said that, Yu Da could actually understand it. He had experienced famine as a child and knew the feeling of being hungry. These people in the mountains had gone from having no food to having rice and flour for every meal. They were beginning to have hope in life, and they definitely didn't want to give up just like that.

Especially in the past six months, agricultural experts from Xianxiang have taught them a lot of planting knowledge, brought them many crops they have never seen before, and imagined with them the scene of enjoying the cool under the rice. Many experimental crops in the fields have not yet matured.

Everyone is looking forward to the time when these crops mature, wanting to taste the flavors that the experts have described. Who would be willing to let them go now?

Luo Danian couldn't help but ask, "Can we defeat the imperial court?"

His brother Luo Dayong was also a little confused, "We have all withdrawn from Mingyue Mountain. There is nothing here. Why do we have to fight them?"

After Luo Dayong asked this question, he received a glare from his brother.

Liu Tianyou, who just turned 18 this year, has a sense of vicissitudes that only middle-aged people have. He sighed and said, "If we retreat and let them in, everything in Mingyue Mountain will definitely attract them to explore in depth. In this way, how long can the Dawn Base under the mountain hide? If we retreat one step, we will have to retreat step by step."

Yu Da added, "If we make peace with them, we will have to hand over everything in the mountains, including you all. You will all be forced to work as laborers in the mountains and quarrying stones. It's our fault for possessing a treasure! It's all because we are too rich!"

As he said this, Yu Da took a vicious bite of the sausage in his hand. In order to be able to eat such delicious sausages in the future, he would fight these people to the end.

When Yu Da said that they were rich, the Luo Danian and his brother agreed very much. The current Mingyue Mountain was like two different worlds from the outside world. The level in all aspects was definitely not as good as the fairyland they had never seen with their own eyes. But Luo Danian said with confidence that they were definitely living better than those dignitaries in Shengjing.

Have those nobles ever eaten instant noodles? Have they ever eaten the stinky and fragrant rice noodles? Have you ever seen a motorcycle that can run very fast without being pulled by horses? Have you ever seen a light that can stay on all night? Have you ever played the game of Three Kingdoms?
Definitely not!

This made Luo Danian and other rough guys feel very superior. When they were bandits, they thought that they could go to Shengjing City to see the world and die without regrets.

Now, it’s boring to think about a garbage place like Shengjing City. Even the dogs in Mingyue Mountain don’t want to go there!

With this mentality, when they saw the imperial soldiers outside trying to seize their Mingyue Mountain and force them to dig stones, Luo Danian and his men felt so angry that their teeth were itching!

Zhao Yunshu was wearing the same black combat uniform as Zheng Xuan. He put down the telescope in his hand and looked worried.

Qin Ze, Hua Qianmian and Xia Chan came back a few days ago and are now helping to evacuate the people in Mingyue Mountain. The situation of Sangque is unclear, so they are all trapped here with no way out.

Although he was mentally prepared and aware, and ready to sacrifice at any time, Zhao Yunshu still wanted to win this battle and protect the people of Mingyue Mountain and the Dawn Base.

But Zhang Junyao, who had been helping them pass on information, said that the person coming from the east line of Qianyue Mountains was Qiu Wanjun, a sixth-level ghost general, a diehard, and Zuo Jin's most loyal subordinate. Zhao Yunshu looked at Liu Tianyou on the side. Qiao Ling and Yao Zhen were still in the modern world. The ghost peddler could only provide logistical support. The situation of the old Gu Master brought back by Qin Ze was still unclear. The three strongest people in the supernatural field in the mountain were Liu Tianyou, Yu Da, and Xia Chan, all of whom were fifth-level.

Hua Qianmian has a greater auxiliary role and is not included for the time being.

The top ghost controlled by Liu Tianyou has a potential of level six and is also their last trump card against Qiu Wanjun.

They had agreed with the modern base to provide Liu Tianyou with incense support through the old method so that Liu Tianyou could reach the sixth level as soon as possible. If Sang Que's trip went smoothly, the specific time would be based on Liu Tianyou's preparation, and Sang Que would notify the modern base at any time.

If something unexpected happens to Sangque during this trip, they also have a latest time, and now there are still four days left before the agreed latest time.

The reason for doing this is that they have discovered through several previous attempts that modern news releases can only maintain their popularity for one or two days. That is when the incense is at its strongest and it is of the greatest help to those who are walking in the underworld. After that, the incense will decline to a certain extent.

The extent of this decline is difficult to calculate, and they are also worried about letting Liu Tianyou advance too early. What if the incense falls back to below the sixth level before the battle even starts?

Liu Tianyou has the mountain ghost seal of Sangque on his body. Without enough incense, the No. 1 ghost cannot harm Liu Tianyou, but it may not be easy to make the No. 1 ghost use all his strength to fight against Qiu Wanjun.

It is also not possible to publish news about the same person over and over again in modern times, as doing so will make people suspicious, and it would be counterproductive in the end.

So they have to hold on for four days no matter what. Only when Liu Tianyou reaches the sixth floor can he create a ghost domain that even Qiu Wanjun can't easily step into, and at least protect the Dawn Base.

"Brother Yu, I may have to trouble you next." Zhao Yunshu said to Yu Dadao.

Yu Da finished the sausage in a few bites, nodding as he chewed, "I know they are scared now and don't dare to come in for a while. Wait until I'm full before you go."

Yu Da turned around and asked the Luo Danian brothers to boil some hot water for him, as he wanted to eat some instant noodles.

What Zhao Yunshu meant was to let Yu Da go out to negotiate now. After all, Yu Da used to be a member of the Evil Suppression Division and he was a very smooth person, making him the most suitable person to do this.

After the intimidation just now, if Yu Da came forward to negotiate peace, he could haggle back and forth on the negotiation conditions and delay time.

Without deterrence, they would not be qualified to negotiate peace with the imperial court. With deterrence, the imperial court would know that they had something good in their hands, and even if Yu Da casually leaked something, the probability of them surviving four days would be very high.

Under the wall of Chaotian Pass, Yu Da boiled water on a wood stove and cooked a box of instant noodles and a box of canned meat in a large iron pot. He had a delicious meal before the farewell ceremony. He was very worried when he thought that he would not be able to eat these delicacies in the next few days.

He only hoped that Sang Que would come back soon and get rid of these annoying guys, or simply rush to Shengjing, force Queen Mother Yu and the little emperor to come down, and let Sang Que sit on the throne instead.

When the situation stabilizes in the future, he will be able to go to the fairyland and become a person who can eat crazy delicious food and make money. The fairyland is so beautiful, this kind of job is simply tailor-made for him!

Because of his stutter, Yu Da's thoughts became increasingly "outrageous".

"Give me two more cakes, and get inside!"

see you tomorrow~
