Chapter 278: Surprise Attack on Tuyuhun (Part )

Last time we talked about how Li Yi and Xiao Ziyi disguised themselves as Prince and Princess Salaman and successfully entered Fuqi City. So let’s take a look at what Li Yi’s next plan is.

The king enjoyed the delicious food and wine, the bells and drums were ringing, and he was happy. He put down his chopsticks and raised his cup to sing more happily, and the sound of Qiang pipes and huqins was harmonious. Tuyuhun King Tuyuhun Ashiyin entertained Li Yi very warmly. After all, he was a big money sponsor, so how could he not be warm!

A Shiyin asked, "Prince Salaman, what do you want to buy this time?"

Xiao Ziyi translated, "They mainly come to buy tea and silk. City Lord Liang told us that tea and silk from Western Chu are the best, so he sent two groups of people, one to Ningzhou to buy Pu tea, and the other to Xijing to buy Shu brocade.

These two teams need to borrow the passage from your country, so Lord Liang specially asked us to visit the king, so that we can make money together. I just don't know what good things the king has here?"

"Prince, you have hit the nail on the head! Although our Tuyuhun Kingdom is not big, we have a lot of good things! Since you have come all the way from Persia, we must bring out the best things! Come on! Bring out our best Cordyceps and Kunlun Jade for Prince Salaman to see."

The maid came out holding two brocade boxes and placed them in front of Li Yi and Xiao Ziyi. The latter curled their lips at the Cordyceps sinensis and picked up the Kunlun jade to play with it.

Li Yi shook his head and smiled, "Although this Kunlun jade is good, we don't want it. However, this Cordyceps is indeed a good thing."

Xiao Ziyi asked in confusion: "What good thing is this thing that is neither a bug nor a grass? It's disgusting just to look at it."

When A Shiyin saw Prince Salaman pressing down the Kunlun jade in the princess's hand and explaining Cordyceps to her, he immediately smiled and said, "Prince Salaman is really knowledgeable. I think he must know the wonders of Cordyceps."

Xiao Ziyi translated, "Your Majesty, the prince said that this Cordyceps can nourish the kidneys and lungs, stop bleeding and resolve phlegm, and is an excellent medicinal material. I just don't know if this thing is a worm or a grass?"

A Shiyin smiled and said, "Of course it's grass!"

"Oh, the king said it was grass, but why doesn't the prince say it's not? How about this, ask the king to find a few medical officers tomorrow, and we can study it together?"

"What's there to study? We've been selling it for years. It must be grass!"

"Hey, Your Majesty, don't say that too early. The prince said that as long as Your Majesty can prove that this Cordyceps is grass, we will use all the ten boxes of gold we brought to buy this Cordyceps!"

"Ten boxes of gold? Great! This is easy to do! I will ask someone to dig up some Cordyceps that haven't grown yet, and you will know the answer once you see it!"

After the banquet, Prince Salaman and the Princess were naturally arranged to stay in the best side hall, which was like the presidential suite, and they were also equipped with maid costumes, but Li Yi only asked them to get a bath and then let them leave.

Xiao Ziyi said unhappily: "Hey, if you let them all leave, who will help me take a bath?"

Li Yi said with a wicked smile: "You are stupid. If you let them help you take a bath, your face as a Central Plains person will be exposed immediately! But if you don't mind, I can..."

"No, I mind! Get out!"

"Okay, okay, but you must remember not to take a shower for too long. Showering will speed up blood circulation, increase oxygen consumption, and cause altitude sickness! And after you shower, use an air blower to dry all the moisture on your body immediately to avoid catching a cold. Otherwise, you will be ruined tomorrow! So remember to shower quickly and go to bed early."

Xiao Ziyi asked in confusion: "What are you talking about? Wait, are you leaving?"

"Nonsense, how about I really sleep here with you tonight? You're dreaming! I just brought you here to take a bath! Otherwise, why would I bring you to the city with such fanfare? I haven't slept in a bed for a long time, have a good sleep! I'll be back tomorrow morning."

"Why are you going?"

"Of course I have to do business. I have to confirm where the people from the Witchcraft Cult are hiding! By the way, for safety reasons, I have to set up a barrier for you. If someone comes, I can respond in advance." As Li Yi spoke, he recited the six-character mantra, and a lotus seal lit up under his feet. Golden light filled the entire room.

"Okay, don't wander around from now on. I'll be back early tomorrow morning." Xiao Ziyi nodded, and Li Yi teleported away with the power of words.

Li Yi first found the base of the Wu Gu Cult in Fuqi City according to Li Yu's instructions. It was a teahouse. Combining the righteousness and bat sound skills, Li Yi quickly locked on the six Gu Masters hiding there.

Fortunately, the cultivation levels of these six people were not very high. He used his talent to block out the sounds, just like he killed Gao Huan and his men, and killed the six people silently.

After that, Li Yi flew to the Huben Army camp on his sword and distributed the weapons and saddles stored in sacks. An hour later, the Huben Army was fully equipped and sneaked to the west wall of Fuqi City in the dark. The reason for this was that it was closest to the palace and the defense was the weakest. Liu Xun led the Huben Army, lurking in the night, waiting for Li Yi's signal.

So what is our great talent Li doing at this moment? Digging a tunnel! Li Yi transformed the measuring ruler into a shape similar to the drill bit of a shield machine, with a series of spiral shovels. He used the Dharma to transform it into an air base to control the measuring ruler to dig the soil, and then used his talent to block the noise to prevent disturbing the people. Who else can do this except him?

Fortunately, he did not need to dig too wide, as long as four people could walk in parallel. He also did not need to dig too long, as long as it extended from the outside of the palace to outside the wall of Fuqi.

The city of Fuqi is actually not that big. The royal palace, which is the inner city, is only a hundred feet from east to west, and the outer city is only four miles square. After all, they have maintained nomadic customs, so there are no large city walls. Although the city walls are not low, they are not deep enough, which gave Li Yi an opportunity.

Seeing that it was almost dawn, Liu Xun said nervously: "Why hasn't the tunnel of Li Yuefu been dug yet? As soon as the day breaks, we will be exposed, and then it will be all over!"

Yu Jiu said: "General Liu, don't worry, my young master will definitely... come!"

At this moment, the ground beside Yu Jiu collapsed, and Li Yi, wearing a homemade mask, jumped out, pushing the gravel and dust. He took off his mask and sat on the ground, panting and said, "Damn it, I'm so tired. General Liu, it's up to you now! Eight thousand people, raid the palace! Capture the King of Xiping as quickly as possible! Let him order all soldiers to lay down their weapons, and the defense of the palace will be taken over by the Tiger Guards!"

"Don't worry! Li Lefu has already completed the most difficult part. The next step is left to us. Soldiers, follow me!" Eight thousand Tiger Guards immediately rushed into the tunnel.

Liu Ruyun walked up to Li Yi and asked, "Have you arranged for Hero Xiao?"

Li Yi wiped his sweat and nodded, "It's a good arrangement. Even if there's a lot of noise outside, she won't be disturbed. Let her have a good sleep. When she wakes up tomorrow morning and finds that the sky in Tuyuhun has changed, it's a good surprise for her."

"You are really capable. You can dig a five-mile long tunnel in just over an hour. How did you do it?"

Li Yi smiled and said, "If you want to accomplish your task, you must first sharpen your tools. Only if you have good tools in your hands can you dare to take on this job! I really have to thank the fox. If she hadn't made an ice sculpture in front of me, I wouldn't have thought of this idea."

"Fox? Ice sculpture? What are you talking about?"

"It's okay, it's okay, just think of it as my intermittent psychosis. Hey, Langya, where's Yu Jiu?"

Langya replied, "He and Master Zhang followed the Tiger Guards and rushed in. They said they wanted to see who could kill more enemies."

Li Yi shook his head and laughed, "Then Zhang Biao will definitely lose. Yu Jiu used spiritual power, which is not affected by the plateau. What are they betting on?"

Langya said awkwardly: "Whoever wins will be the Second Master!"

Li Yi slapped him, causing him to stagger, and then cursed: "You really love to stir up trouble!"

Langya covered the back of his head and said aggrievedly: "How did you guess that it was me who started it?"

"Humph, I don't know you yet!"

The Tiger Guards rushed out of the tunnel and immediately attacked in teams. Five people in a squad climbed over the wall and ten people in a group broke down the pillars and smashed the door. It took only a quarter of an hour to break through the palace gate. The Tiger Guards attacked all the way, and Liu Xun led the vanguard and approached the palace. An hour later, the Tuyuhun king, Tuyuhun Ashiyin, was captured alive. At this time, the sky was just getting bright.

Liu Xun put a knife on A Shiyin's neck and forced him to give an order that the guard of the palace would be taken over by the Huben Army, and the guards of the royal city were not allowed to enter the city without orders. The Huben Army's flag was erected outside the palace hall.

Li Yi changed his clothes, returned to the door of Xiao Ziyi's presidential suite, waved away the two maids, removed the barrier, and pushed the door open. Xiao Ziyi was sleeping soundly, and Li Yi did not disturb her. Seeing the bathtub next to her, he gathered his righteous spirit and said, "Change the tub of fresh water." It was a magical skill to be able to do what he said, but it was a bit of a waste for Li Yi to use it like this.

He put his hand into the water again, using the Red Lotus Karma Fire Seal as a heat source to heat himself up for a bath, and when the water temperature was right, he took off all his clothes and stepped into the tub. After all, he hadn't taken a bath for a long time, and he had just been digging for a long time, so his body was so dirty that mud could be rubbed out!

Xiao Ziyi was awakened by the sound of water from Li Yi's bath. She rubbed her eyes and looked over. She immediately became nervous and asked, "Li Yi, what are you doing?"

"Nonsense, can't you see I'm taking a shower? You haven't showered for more than half a month and you feel uncomfortable all over, and so do I! Don't you have to take a good shower too?"

"You are not using my bath water to wash yourself, are you? Eh! That's so disgusting!"

"Well, what else can I do? Where can I get water? How dirty are you? Look at the water after you wash, it's all mud!"

"Nonsense! There's no mud on me! It's you who's dirty! I'm telling you, don't touch me later, I think you're disgusting!"

"Yeah, I feel the same way! I feel sick too! Well, go get me my sack. There are some clothes for me to change into."

"Who do you think you are, asking me to get you something?"

"Okay, I'll take it myself." Li Yi stood up and showed his white butt! In fact, he could have controlled the sack to fly to his hand, but he had to tease Xiao Ziyi like this. Alas! Li Yi's bottom line is really the limit! No, he seems to have no bottom line!

"Ah! Go back! I'll get it for you! I'll get it for you!"

Xiao Ziyi walked to the clothes that Li Yi had taken off, and saw that they were covered with dust. She was surprised and asked, "Where have you been? Did you kill someone and then dig a hole to bury him?"

Li Yi nodded and said, "Well, you're right! I did dig a hole, otherwise it wouldn't be so dirty! Stop talking nonsense and bring me the sack."

Xiao Ziyi held the dusty sack and turned her head to hand it to Li Yi with a look of disgust. Why is it so dirty? The gravel and sand that Li Yi dug out are all in this sack! Where else can you put it! Otherwise, why is it said that no one else can take on this project except Li Yi! Even if you transport it out by truck, it will be a mountain of dirt!

Li Yi reached out to take the sack and shook it casually, causing dust to fly all over the floor. Xiao Ziyi immediately hid aside and said loudly, "Are you crazy? They were just washed!" Li Yi did not answer her, but reached out and took out new clothes from the sack.

Seeing that Li Yi took out a Confucian robe, Xiao Ziyi asked in confusion, "Why don't you wear that white robe?"

"There's no need for that. Today is the day for a showdown!"

"Oh! The fight starts today, right? I had a good rest last night, so I will have a great time killing people later!"

Li Yi rolled his eyes at Xiao Ziyi and said, "I'm going to come out and get dressed now. Are you going to help me get dressed, or are you going to step away?"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Ziyi immediately retreated to a far corner, but could not help but peek. In fact, not only men are lustful, women are also lustful, and may be even more so. It's just that there are too few good-looking men and too many good-looking women, so the range of men's lust is too wide, while women's lust is too concentrated, and the effects shown by the two are very different.
