Because she couldn't sleep all night, Jiang Pengji kept the livestream on. She watched a group of night owls and idle people send bullet screens to kill time.
When Yang Si said that, the night owls who were still dozing off in front of the screen instantly woke up.
[Fat Cat Chili]: Wait — what the f * ck, am I hearing things? What happened to Beauty Ci?
Ye Wu Yanling: Oh my god, don't scare me. How could something happen to Beauty Ci? How could it be? Today is not April Fool's Day!
Nuo Nuo Xiang: Although I always feel that Beauty Ci is delicate and weak, he doesn't have the appearance of a short life. How could something happen to him?
Cat Demon Jun: Today is April Fool's Day. I'm not listening, I'm not listening. This is definitely a joke designed by the streamer!
Yun Ruochen: Wei Ci is dead? As his veteran fan, I absolutely can't accept this result!
The livestream room was in an uproar.
Although the livestream room only had an upper limit of 150,000 viewers, after several years, the number of livestream fans accumulated was more than 10 million.
Wei Ci's Tieba alone had more than 30 million followers. These 30 million fans were live fans, not zombie fans. The Tieba was abnormally active. Although these aunty groups were all here for their looks, the world was a place where looks mattered the most.
Now that everyone received the news of Wei Ci's "death," they suddenly felt as if two bombs had exploded in their ears.
The words "Wei Ci's death" became a hot topic in minutes. Madam Madam's fan club couldn't wait to rush into the livestream room.
Jiang Pengji was also shocked, but her mental fortitude was excellent. No matter how thunderous her heart was, she remained calm on the surface.
"Tell me in detail what happened." Jiang Pengji's tone was unprecedentedly cold. Every word contained murderous intent. Even though there was a charcoal brazier burning in the tent, one could still feel the obvious drop in temperature. "Zixiao is dead? Could it be the group from Qiuyu County? "
Yang Si held back the grief in his heart. He gritted his teeth and endured the surging sourness in his throat. He spoke with difficulty.
Hearing that Wei Ci's body had been chopped up and thrown to the wolves as food, and that his bones had been gnawed clean and sent back, Jiang Pengji's state of mind was already unstable. She was as cold as ice, and her murderous intent rose steadily. The livestream room even lost its order.
She was not in the mood to care about the explosive bullet screen, and turned her eyes to the two attendants behind Yang Si.
Each of them was holding a corner of a piece of white cloth, and the white cloth was wrapped around a heavy object. That was where the smell of blood came from.
Yang Si said, "The thieves in Qiuyu County threw this on horseback in front of the camp …"
Jiang Pengji stood up coldly. The two attendants put down the white cloth, revealing a pile of human bones.
It was stained with dark blood, and the flesh that wasn't completely eaten was still stuck to the bones. Many places had bite marks of dogs.
Jiang Pengji only glanced at him once, and her murderous gaze softened a little. She raised her hand and ordered her attendants to leave.
Although Yang Si was immersed in hatred, he also noticed the changes in Jiang Pengji.
His gaze then fell on the pile of fresh human bones, and his lips moved for a while. "My Lord, Zixiao …"
Jiang Pengji scoffed and snorted. "He's not dead."
Yang Si: "…"
"Put away that mournful expression. This isn't Zixiao's human bones." Jiang Pengji squatted down and took out a piece of bone with blood and minced meat. The audience in the streaming room expressed that they could not stand such a large scale taboo scene, and they all commented on the bullet screen to protect themselves. "The bone age isn't right."
Bone age?
Jiang Pengji said with experience, "The bone age of this set of bones is at least 35 years old. Zixiao is only in his early twenties. Also, although Zixiao has learned martial arts, he's at most at the level of square dancing. The bone age of this set of human bones is obviously that of someone who has been doing strenuous work for a long time. Moreover, Zixiao is on the skinny side, but this set of bones is different. It's at least a size stronger than Zixiao, so he's not Zixiao. "
Yang Si: "… Not Zixiao? Then where is Zixiao? "
Jiang Pengji secretly heaved a sigh of relief, but she appeared calm on the surface.
She smiled and said, "I'm afraid he's hiding somewhere, sitting back and watching the show begin."
Yang Si's expression twitched. He looked at the pile of human bones on the ground with hidden bitterness, and he secretly gritted his teeth.
"This Wei Zixiao! What tricks does he want to play this time? "
Jiang Pengji rubbed her chin and smiled faintly. "In short, it's definitely beneficial to us."
After Yang Si calmed down, he regained his wits. He frowned deeply and carefully tried to figure out Wei Ci's train of thought.
If Wei Ci was killed by the second-in-command out of anger, who would benefit the most?
The Red Lotus Group!
Because this move cut off the second-in-command's escape route of relying on Liu Xi, in order to protect himself, he could only continue to ally with his old boss, the Red Lotus Group.
His old boss was also happy to accept the second-in-command and his troops. Coupled with the convenience of the city gates of Qiuyu County, they could delay Jiang Pengji to death.
Not long after, Yang Si understood Wei Ci's plan. He was angry and furious.
"This guy … Can't he tell me in advance what his plan is? He almost scared me out of my wits! "
Jiang Pengji said, "Plans can't keep up with changes. Maybe he came up with this idea on the spur of the moment."
Yang Si asked, "Since Zixiao is fine, then my lord … what should we do tomorrow? Should we directly challenge him to a fight? "
Jiang Pengji nodded. "Yes, our trusted advisor has been killed. We should at least put on a show. I don't want to act. Tomorrow, you'll go to the front lines. "
Yang Si was speechless.
He didn't want to act either. Wei Ci wasn't dead yet. Why should he waste his feelings?
Jiang Pengji continued, "Zixiao may have already instigated the one in Qiuyu County to defect. Now that the Red Lotus Group is united on the surface, I'm afraid that both sides will suffer losses and fight to the death. We'll challenge them first. On the surface, we'll exert pressure, but in reality, we'll bide our time and observe the specific situation. "
Based on Jiang Pengji's understanding of Wei Ci, this person had probably already made a comprehensive plan.
If the Red Lotus Group didn't lose everything this time, Jiang Pengji's name would be read backwards.
When Jiang Pengji received Wei Ci's corpse, the Red Lotus Group outside the city also received the news.
The scholar from the Red Lotus Group was not suspicious. Instead, he was secretly pleased.
Although Wei Ci's reputation on the battlefield was not prominent, he was in charge of the post-war pension and the stationing of the troops. He had a high reputation among the people of Fengyi County. As Liu Xi's right-hand man, he had been hacked to death and fed to the dogs. His corpse had even been sent to Liu Xi. He would wake up laughing even in his dreams.
Liu Xi had made him suffer a lot. Now that Wei Ci was dead, he could be considered to have regained some of his dignity.
The scholar was certain that it was impossible for the Deputy Chief to side with Liu Xi. Naturally, he did not suspect that there was a trick.
The two sides agreed to meet the next day to resist Liu Xi together.
Before dawn, Jiang Pengji had already sent someone to the foot of the city to challenge them. The generals and soldiers were ready for battle. Their murderous aura shook the sky, and the war drums thundered.
Even though they were far away, the people on the city walls could feel the repressed and resentful murderous intent.
For a moment, everyone was in a state of panic. The Deputy Chief's face was a mixture of green and white. Panic and fear surfaced on the surface.
The more it was like this, the more relieved the scholar from the Red Lotus Group was.
