C325 Luo Capital
C325 Luo Capital
After coming out from the Zhou family, Ghost King didn't stop for even a second. He immediately spread the news to all directions.
"The Zhou family has gifted us riches!"
For a moment, the news spread all over the place with the Lo Capital as the center. It was more than a thousand miles away from the city.
At that time, Ghost King was still full of confidence. He thought that this matter would definitely succeed. However, he never expected that the girl wouldn't show any signs of coming out even after half a month of waiting.
When he thought of the resolute look in the patriarch's eyes when he said that he would be buried with her, Ghost King gritted his teeth and decided to go out personally.
In just a short three days, Ghost King finally found a girl with eight birth dates that matched Young Master Zhou in this nameless town. She was Chen Rong, who had just become an adult of the Chen Family.
After rushing to the Chen Family happily, Ghost King had never thought that old man Chen would be so stubborn and even kick him out mercilessly.
Ghost King bore a grudge in his heart. Finally, that night, he sneaked into old man Chen's house and killed all four of them.
At this point, Yang Xuan finally understood everything. What Ghost King said was basically the same as what the old man said. He was sure that he wasn't lying.
"If that's the case, where did you kidnap Chen Rongrong?" Yang Xuan raised his brows and asked.
"Chen... Chen Rongrong is already... dead..." Ghost King said bitterly.
"What!"
The few of them arrived in front of Ghost King almost at the same time, especially the old man. He gave Ghost King a heavy kick.
"You said Rong Rong is dead?! You are really a beast!" The old man screamed in pain. He did not hold back at all and kicked Ghost King until he vomited blood.
Yang Xuan frowned and pulled the old man away. It wasn't until then that Ghost King finally recovered and said, "Why are you in such a hurry? What I said is that I am going to die soon..."
He seemed to like to catch his breath. This time, Yang Xuan couldn't bear it anymore. He took the lead and stepped on the old man.
"Tell me quickly. Where is Chen Rongrong?"
"She's in the Zhou family Prefecture in Lo Capital. During this period of time, she has been providing delicious food and drinks. Both of you, please stop fighting..."
Ning Zifeng still couldn't vent his anger. He kicked him again and said snappily, "You all want her to die. Isn't it just delicious food and drinks?"
After letting a few soldiers hold Ghost King down, the three of them went back to their rooms and sat down to discuss.
"I think since Chen Rongrong is not dead yet, we should go to Lo Capital to save him." Yang Xuan said seriously.
Ning Zifeng nodded at first, then shook his head and said in a hurry, "That is the Zhou family! I'm afraid that the general will come out before I make a move."
"Isn't the general pacifying the war?"
"Who knows..."
The two of them spoke in confusion, then turned to look at the old man. "Old man, come up with an idea!"
Wei Kingdom had always had a good tradition of respecting the old and loving the young. At this moment, Yang Xuan and Ning Zifeng were trying their best to explain this principle.
When he saw the two of them kick the ball to him, the old man frowned and said, "How about this? I think the two of you can go and talk to the patriarch of Zhou family."
"How do we talk about this? It's that old bastard who nodded his head that made Ghost King do such a thing. You want us to talk to him? Isn't it obvious that he is going to fight? " Ning Zifeng said with a frown. His rude words made Yang Xuan laugh out loud.
No one knew when it started, but Yang Xuan felt that Ning Zifeng seemed to have changed into a different person.
The solemn, cautious, and respectful look he had when he first met Ning Zifeng in the Wind Shadow Valley had disappeared at this moment.
Looking at Ning Zifeng stepping on the stool without any scruples and looking like a ruffian, Yang Xuan finally felt that this person was closer to him.
The old man was still speaking slowly to Ning Zifeng. "That's not true. General, you heard it just now. The patriarch of Zhou family had been deceived by Ghost King. As long as he spoke nicely to him... I believe that he won't be an unreasonable person. "
Yang Xuan wanted to laugh out loud when he heard this.
Of course, it was impossible for the patriarch of Zhou family to be an unreasonable person. On the contrary, he was a very shrewd person.
Although he didn't know what the patriarch of Zhou family was thinking, Yang Xuan had already realized that this matter was arranged by the patriarch of Zhou family. There was no reason for him to be deceived.
If he went to Zhou family to reason with them, he wouldn't need to guess to know the consequences of being thrown out.
Yang Xuan didn't express his thoughts. Instead, Ning Zifeng's eyes lit up. He rubbed his chin as if he was deep in thought and kept muttering to himself.
"This is a good idea. This will also give Zhou family a way out. Even if this matter is over, if the general comes to find me and denounce me, I can still shirk the responsibility."
"In order to give us a way out, Zhou family will surely come to a realization. We will release Chen Rongrong and sentence that traitor to death. Then, everything will be a happy ending for everyone!"
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this method was feasible. Ning Zifeng immediately slammed the table and made up his mind. "We will rush to Lo Capital overnight!"
Being annoyed by Ning Zifeng, Yang Xuan had no choice but to agree to this request. After that, he followed the group of people and left the nameless town in a grandiose manner.
They ran for a whole day on the plains. After the night, Yang Xuan couldn't take it anymore. Just as he was about to ask Ning Zifeng to stop and rest, he raised his head and saw the outline of a city in the distance.
"We're almost there! That's the most prosperous city in the north, Lo Capital!"
Ning Zifeng shouted excitedly. He swung the horsewhip in his hand down heavily, and the horses under him ran even more vigorously.
However, Yang Xuan also understood the principle of running a dead horse. He didn't have too much expectation in his heart, and just followed the group with a helpless look on his face.
Sure enough, another day passed. The group of people only arrived at the tall city gate of Lo Capital at night.
"This is the Lo Capital. How is it, Mr Yang? Have you never been here before?" Ning Zifeng lifted the rope and the group stopped.
Yang Xuan looked at the 20-30 meter tall city gate, the 7-8 meter wide moat, and the two neat rows of soldiers at the gate. He nodded in his heart.
"As expected of Lo Capital. I thought what I read in the books was already exaggerated. I didn't expect the layout to be so small."
