Bang!
After a heavy sound, the gate of the shopping mall, which was originally open, was closed.
With the light of the fire, one could see that above the city wall were rows of densely packed arrows.
In other words, they were surrounded by people.
Seeing the densely packed figures on the city wall, especially the faintly discernible face in the fire that he would never forget, the King of Shu's expression changed drastically.
"Li … Yi!" He spat out the name through gritted teeth.
"I said to be careful of spies." Wang Wei led a thousand people to block the city gate that they had just entered from. He looked at the King of Shu and shook his head. "Your Highness, look, I didn't overthink, did I?"
"A hundred people go and capture Envoy Fang." Wang Wei looked back. Although he didn't know how Envoy Fang saw through them and escaped without entering the city, he couldn't let this big fish escape after planning for so long.
Immediately, some people went out of the city gate, while the rest closed the city gate.
The King of Shu was stunned. After a long time, he came back to his senses and looked at him. His eyes widened and he said in disbelief, "You, you …"
"I'm sorry, I'm a spy."
Wang Wei looked at him and said, "Your Highness, give up your fearless resistance and surrender …"
Beside the King of Shu, several people immediately shouted, "Protect His Highness!"
They looked around and said loudly, "Everyone, don't panic. We have the numbers. Follow me and kill our way out!"
"Kill our way out?" Wang Wei looked at them and weighed something in his hand. He said, "Do you know what this is? This is Heavenly Punishment. As long as I throw this out, with a boom, you will … F * ck, who the f * ck ignited it!"
Seeing that the fuse of the thing in his hand was about to burn out, Wang Wei hurriedly threw the Heavenly Punishment out.
Boom!
Although he threw it at the corner of the wall, and the Heavenly Punishment was a low-quality version with limited power, more than ten people in the King of Shu's group who were closest to it fell to the ground, moaning in pain.
The fire in his eyes had yet to dissipate, and his ears were buzzing, mixed with the moans of the people around him. The power of the Heavenly Punishment made it so that no one dared to act rashly.
"If anyone dares to resist, I'll let you have a taste of Heavenly Punishment!" Countless figures had already come down from the city wall, and a dense wave of arrows was aimed at the people in the middle of the open space.
The King of Shu's face turned pale in an instant.
There were originally three thousand people in the allied army, but because there was a spy in the middle, it suddenly became two thousand people. They foolishly rushed into the city gate, but were surrounded here like dumplings, unable to advance or retreat …
"Put down your weapons and surrender immediately. Fight for leniency. If you resist, kill without mercy!" Wang Wei held a paper tube in his hand and shouted, "Those who surrender, stand on the left. Those who don't, stand on the right. Everyone move, move …"
"Follow me and kill …"
Someone in the crowd had just said a few words when an arrow shot out from the front and hit him right between the eyebrows.
The man fell to the ground, and the people around him immediately scattered.
Seeing this, Wang Wei's voice became cold as he said, "If you resist again, you will be punished by the heavens!"
"Everyone, don't be afraid. We have the advantage in numbers. Follow me and kill …"
Among the crowd, another person revealed a fierce expression. However, just as he finished speaking, there was a commotion beside him. He saw that the surrounding people were avoiding him as if he was the plague and distanced themselves from him.
Everyone knew that they were surrounded here, and there was no way out. As long as the people above kept shooting arrows, they would be easily taken care of. Not to mention that the other party had the Heavenly Punishment Divine Weapon, which was extraordinarily powerful. If the other party threw one over, wouldn't they be implicated?
At the city gate, Wang Wei had already lit an incense stick. He continued to raise his megaphone and shouted, "Those who surrender, stand on the left. Those who don't surrender, stand on the right. Move, all of you, move. You only have five minutes. After that, immediately release the arrows!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a clamor of footsteps from the crowd.
Wang Wei looked at the dense crowd and shouted, "Yes, just like that. Put down your weapons, put your hands behind your head, and squat …"
Not only did they not have the advantage in numbers, but they were also surrounded by the other party. Emissary Fang of the Right was nowhere to be seen, and the Holy Religion was without a leader. Under Wang Wei's coercion, they could only stand on the left.
After the time it took for half an incense stick to burn, the King of Shu looked at the remaining people around him and murmured, "They're gone, they're all gone …"
Li Yi came down from the city wall and walked to the King of Shu.
The King of Shu looked at the few people around him, and then at the bald men pointing arrows at them. His gaze finally stopped on Li Yi.
At this time, it had been less than four years since they first met.
He still remembered that their first meeting was at the Cold Mountain Temple.
In the second year of Jing He's reign, the plum blossoms in the Cold Mountain Temple were in full bloom. He stood together with Li Xuan, whom he hated the most. From that time on, he didn't like this scholar of the Jing Kingdom, who had just made a name for himself.
At that time, he was still the King of Shu, the prince closest to that position. He disregarded his feud with Li Xuan and condescended to invite him to a banquet at the King's Mansion …
But what about him? He and Li Xuan made a mess of his banquet, making him a laughing stock in the circle of the nobles in the capital.
Then, he beat him up in the palace in front of all the court officials, seriously injuring him, and continued to get away with it …
Then, he uprooted his power in the court one by one. He drove him out of the capital. He made him get further and further away from that position, the position that he had dreamed of for more than twenty years.
Then, he extinguished his last shred of hope.
The Cui family fell, his mother died, he became a fugitive, and he became the Gyeong Of Silla. He took over his fief and his mansion …
Now, he had finally found a chance, a chance to wash away the shame he had suffered …
However, Li Yi was standing right in front of him. They had never been so close to each other, nor had they been so far away from each other.
The moment he met Li Yi, he missed his whole life.
How good would it have been if he hadn't met Li Yi in the winter when the plum blossoms were in full bloom in the second year of Jinghe?
However, there were no ifs.
"Cough! Cough! "
The King of Shu bent over and couldn't stop coughing. He covered his mouth, but blood still seeped out from between his fingers.
He suddenly pulled out a saber from the waist of a guard beside him and slashed at Li Yi. A crazed look appeared on his face. "Li Yi, Li Yi, I'm going to kill you!"
Li Yi pinched the tip of the saber. No matter how much strength the King of Shu used, the long saber couldn't move an inch.
He exerted a little force and the saber flew out of the King of Shu's hand. He casually threw it to the ground, making a crisp "clang" sound.
The King of Shu's body fell limply to the ground. Blood flowed from the corner of his mouth. He lowered his head and panted heavily.
"Haha, you, you traitors, traitors, I am the Emperor. How dare you, how dare you rebel …"
At a certain moment, he suddenly raised his head and pointed at Li Yi. He took a few deep breaths and his face was no longer pale. Instead, it turned rosy. He got up from the ground, put one hand on his waist, and laughed wildly. "Li Yi, Gyeong Of Silla, you are just a Prince. Why don't you kneel before me?"
"Treason, you are treason!"
"I want to punish you for your crimes, I want to punish you for your crimes!"
"I'm going to kill you, I'm going to exterminate your entire family …"
…
Li Yi looked at the crazed King of Shu and shook his head. He waved his hand and said, "Take him away."
"Don't touch me, don't touch me …" The expression on the King of Shu's face became terrified. He shouted, "You unruly people, unruly people …"
"Where is the Imperial Army, where is the Imperial Army?"
"Guards, guards, guards. These unruly people, these unruly people want to harm me!"
