The Heroes of Gulong: Great Chefs from Past to Present

Chapter 60 White Clothes and Black Knife
  Although Li Chaofeng kept saying that he was fine and the color returned to his face, Ji Bingyan did not ignore it.

But no matter how much he pressed, he couldn't get an answer when facing someone who didn't want to answer the question.

At this time, the king of Kucha was full of arrogance, and he was surrounded by ministers and attendants. They entered the city of Kucha in crowds.

Li Chaofeng and Ji Bingyan followed far behind the team. Li Chaofeng's eyes were still filled with emptiness and hesitation, which eventually turned into a long sigh.

"Ah"

After entering the city, the ministers also got off their camels, and the attendants displayed the flag of the King of Kucha to announce to the people that the King of Kucha had returned.

The large group of people followed the Western Region Allied Forces in front and headed towards the palace. Then countless Kucha people were driven out of their houses by Kucha warriors and knelt down on both sides of the road.

King Qiuci doesn't care about these small things, he is more concerned about when he can return to the throne.

Because Wang Jia was deployed, the team could only advance slowly in the city. When they reached the foot of the royal city, the Western Region Allied Forces also happened to break through the royal city.

The wall of the royal city is not high, only more than two feet, and ordinary people in the world can climb up it by using their nimble skills to pick through the cracks in the rocks.

After all, it is just a small country.

Seeing that the coalition forces were overwhelming, King Qiuci nodded with satisfaction and ordered his troops to follow closely. He wanted to see the rebel Andershan face the end of the road.

However, when King Qiuci followed the Western Region Allied Forces into the gate tower of the royal city, everyone suddenly saw a person jumping from the gate tower.

An ugly man with a deer head and rat eyes suddenly landed behind the Western Region Allied Forces and quickly grabbed King Qiuci who was walking at the front of the team.

King Qiuci only felt the back of his neck tighten, and then someone held a long knife in front of his neck. The crowd behind him was already shouting to be careful, but it was too late.

Turning his head slightly, King Qiuci saw the face of the visitor clearly and said angrily through gritted teeth.

"Rebellious ministers and traitors, do you still want to resist at this time?"

The visitor's name is Wu Juxuan, who used to be named Miao Monk Wu Hua.

Wuhua was very upset about the current situation. It was not that King Kucha's city was destroyed too quickly. Anyway, after he saw King Kucha's oasis camp empty, he already knew something was wrong.

At this time, there were not many soldiers in Kucha City, and most of the Imperial City's forbidden troops were taken away by General Min.

Wuhua really didn't expect that before he could get the treasure of the Star of Bliss, Kucha City would be captured by the King of Kucha and the coalition forces from various countries.

Now it's better, let alone creating a desperate situation for King Qiuci, the city of Qiuci has been lost.

Fortunately, King Qiuci was too proud after his victory and did not defend himself against the Jianghu people's surprise attack, which allowed him to succeed.

As long as King Kucha is in his hands, this operation cannot be considered a failure.

The Western Region Allied Forces are not the soldiers of King Kucha. They still have to go back. As long as they go back, General Min's forbidden army can still take back the royal city.

But the premise is that King Kucha cannot get the treasure of the Star of Bliss.

With the treasure, it is possible for these Western Region coalition forces to stay here and fight General Min for money.

Wuhua calculated clearly, but he didn't know that the Western Region Alliance Army got paid first before helping.

Thinking about his plan in his mind, he looked at the Kucha attendants who were about to move outside the royal city gate. Wuhua smiled slightly, and the ugly human skin mask made everyone feel sick.

Without much hesitation, he held a long knife on King Kucha's neck and slowly retreated.

After walking out of the gate building, Wuhua jumped up, dragging King Qiuci and rose out of thin air, the direction was actually the inside of the royal city.

Ji Bingyan already had the Judge's Pen in her hand. Seeing that the other party wanted to run away, she planned to catch up.

No matter who the opponent is, first capture the King of Kucha.

But just as he was about to step forward, Li Chaofeng reached out to hold the other person's shoulders and whispered a gentle reminder.

"Look at the situation first."

Ji Bingyan's eyes were stunned, and she looked at Li Chaofeng with more doubts in her eyes. Because he knew Li Chaofeng's abilities better than others. The fact that someone was ambushing above the gatehouse could be hidden from many people, but he could never hide it from Li Chaofeng.

Could it be that the smell of blood just now affected Li Chaofeng's perception?
  However, he only followed King Qiuci to capture him as a hostage, but he did not really become a guard. His expression was not very excited, but he was confused about Li Chaofeng's purpose of letting him go.

Ji Bingyan was stopped, but Li Chaofeng didn't move.

There are a lot of Kucha guards, but they are only strong men with a little strength. Chasing a master like Wuhua
  The royal city was full of soldiers from the Western Regions who were rushing to kill them. They also saw Wuhua arresting people, but Wuhua just jumped up and down and completely disappeared among the stone pavilions of the royal city.

Not to mention chasing him, even if he was blocked, they couldn't stop him.

"Wu Juxuan, let the king go!"

Several Qiuci ministers were already shouting the man's name, which made Li Chaofeng's expression slightly twitch, wondering why Wuhua appeared here.

But after thinking about it carefully, he also reminded Ji Bingyan in a low voice.

"We are Han people, Han people. We should not kill Han people!"

Ji Bingyan was stunned: "But this is rebellion."

Li Chaofeng's expression remained unchanged and he reminded in a low voice: "But this is the Kucha rebellion, not the Central Plains rebellion, right?"

Ji Bingyan was stunned. He didn't understand why Li Chaofeng said that there were some and no such things. No matter where rebellion happened, weren't they all rebels and traitors?

The Kingdom of Kucha is a vassal state in the Central Plains, and the King of Kucha is also a vassal king who needs to pay tribute every year.

But the Kucha rebellion really has nothing to do with him as a Jianghu person, and can only be reminded.

"But this man captured King Qiuci, but we don't know if he is from Shi Guanyin."

Li Chaofeng was stunned for a moment, then nodded his nose and explained in a low voice: "It doesn't matter, I can find this person."

Ji Bingyan was silent. Li Chaofeng was affected by the smell of blood for a while, and then found someone again. What happened to him?
  Moreover, Li Chaofeng's attitude was obviously that he only wanted the two of them to find someone alone.

Why not let the Kucha guards follow him? Wouldn't he worry about meeting a strong enemy after chasing him?
  Nodding silently, the ministers and attendants of Qiuci Kingdom were already searching the royal city, but Li Chaofeng just looked around and took Ji Bingyan to a remote corner.

Wuhua ran to the palace openly in front of everyone. In fact, after avoiding everyone's sight, he immediately entered a room next to the city wall.
-
  When Wuhua took Qiuci away, a man suddenly climbed up from a big bed embroidered with dragons and phoenixes in the palace.

This man is naked, handsome in appearance and heroic in stature.

And lying next to him were two delicate beauties from the Western Regions, who had not woken up at all because they were too tired last night.

He seemed to hear the noise outside the door. The man slowly opened his arms, yawned, and cursed outside.

"If you don't let me sleep well in the early morning, are you planning to die?"

Unfortunately, no matter how much he yelled and cursed, no one from his subordinates who was supposed to be guarding the door responded. Soon he also heard the sound of fighting, and his expression was stunned.

Scratching his scalp, the man seemed to remember why he stayed in Kucha. He sighed and walked out of the bed, picked up the white clothes on the ground and put them on one by one.

After he was fully dressed, the man picked his ears with a speechless expression and walked slowly toward the weapon that he had casually leaned on the table before last night's debauchery.

It was a knife, with a dark scabbard and a dark handle.

From the appearance, it is very similar to the Yanling knife, which is the most common in the Central Plains.

After holding the knife, the man remembered something embarrassingly and grinned.

"It's over. Those guys seemed to have called me just now, but I scolded them away."

Through the window he saw a plume of smoke rising, and the man had an angry look on his face.

"These people are really not afraid of trouble!"
