The Rat King felt wronged. It was the Snake King who was chasing him, so why did Chengmen Shi only blame him? Was he blind?

So, it turned around angrily, pointed at the snake king that was catching up not far away, and squeaked...

"Sir, are you blind? Didn't you see that it was the snake king chasing me? I am the victim, so you should scold it instead of scolding an innocent person like me."

However, Chengmen Shi simply couldn't understand what it was saying?

However, when the Rat King pointed, he understood clearly that it was the Snake King that was chasing the strong man.

However, the snake king not only saved him during the day, but also saved the lives of all the people in the city. The city gate historian was very grateful to it and naturally would not blame it.

He even stepped forward, blocked the snake king's way, and said politely...

"Snake King, thank you for keeping watch with us tonight. I thank you on behalf of the people of the whole city."

After saying this, he bowed to She Tian and continued...

"I know you have a big appetite, and keeping watch is too boring and easy to fall asleep, so I specially prepared a lot of snacks for you to pass the time."

After saying this, he respectfully took the snake king aside to eat.

The Rat King was left aside and felt very unbalanced.

Both it and the snake king work for their ancestors, so why are they treated so differently?

It ran forward unconvinced and squeaked at the snake king...

"Snake King, if you have anything delicious, I want to eat it too."

The snake king's long body coiled on the ground, with its head raised high. It was eating the roasted chicken, fish and dried meat on the table, stretching and shrinking, looking so enjoying it. When the Rat King saw it, he wanted to swing his claws at it and wipe off the smug look on its face.

The Rat King ran forward angrily, sat aside, picked up a roast chicken and started to eat it, gnashing his teeth and saying...

"I ate all your food, what are you so proud of?"

When the soldiers who were on guard nearby saw this scene, they all curled their lips in disdain, thinking that the strong man was too shameless to snatch food from the snake king. The man had made great contributions and saved the people of the whole city during the day, so he deserved this treatment.

How dare this strong man snatch food from it?

You are really shameless and invincible.

Although the soldiers didn't say anything, the expressions on their faces showed their contempt. The Rat King was not stupid, of course he knew what they meant. He threw the roast chicken on the ground in anger and squeaked...

"No, no, I don't want to eat anymore."

When you are angry, even the most delicious food tastes like chewing wax.

What's more, it doesn't lack food, it's just doing it out of spite.

The snake king glanced at it lazily, and while eating the delicious food, he said angrily...

"Rat King, now you know how important it is to be able to speak human language, right?"

"If you can speak human language, as long as you explain to everyone, others will not misunderstand you. Unlike now, everyone thinks you are shameless."

The Rat King gnashed his teeth and said, "Snake King, don't be too proud. I will learn to speak human language tomorrow. If you try to piss me off now, you won't have the chance in the future. When I eat meat in the future, you can only watch helplessly. Then, I will let everyone spit on you and let you know what it means to be unable to defend yourself."

The snake king opened his bloody mouth and used his red tongue to roll a roast chicken on the table into his mouth. He swallowed it in one gulp and said angrily...

"Is it like the situation we are in now? I eat meat and you can only watch helplessly from the side? Then everyone despises you, thinking that you have not done anything meritorious and you are trying to snatch food from me, right?"

"Hmph! I won't talk nonsense with you." The Rat King was so angry that he snorted coldly, put his hands behind his back and walked aside. He didn't intend to pay any more attention to the Snake King to avoid making it angry to death.

At this moment, outside the city gate, not far away, dozens of small black dots appeared. They moved very quickly and arrived under the city gate in an instant.

A few seconds later.

The "clang" sounds were heard one after another.

The python stretched out its long head and looked over...

I saw dozens of long ropes with iron hooks hooked on the stone pier of the city gate. Below the city gate, vaguely, those small black dots turned into human figures. They were holding on to the ropes and struggling to climb up the city gate.

"Oh no! The enemy is launching a surprise attack."

The python opened its bloody mouth and hissed.

Unfortunately, no one could understand what it was saying?

At this time, the Rat King didn't care about the rift with the Snake King. He immediately pointed at the bottom of the city gate and squeaked. Then, he rushed to a stone pier, grabbed the iron hook, and threw it under the city gate...

"Ahhhh..."

A shrill scream was particularly abrupt in the silent night.

As a result, everyone knew that the enemy was coming for a surprise attack, and they all picked up the stones and wood they had prepared and smashed them hard at the enemy who was climbing up.

The giant python was not idle either. It dragged its long body and quickly flew down the city gate. It used its tail to knock the enemy soldiers who were halfway up to the bottom of the city gate.

Suddenly, in the pitch-black night, screams and wails rang out non-stop...

“Ahhh…it hurts…it hurts so much, wuwuwu…”

"Oh no! That big python is coming again. Let's run away quickly."

"Help me, help me, my leg is broken."

The city gate historian showed no mercy to the enemy. He immediately ordered his men to throw down torches soaked in kerosene and oil, which instantly burned the injured enemy soldiers and those who had no time to escape to death.

The screams outside the city gate became more miserable, and the whole night was filled with their miserable cries.

The people of Youzhou were all awakened. They knew that the enemy was going to attack at night, so they couldn't sleep at all. They immediately put on their clothes and walked out of their homes, looking in the direction of the city gate and talking to their neighbors...

"Hey! Why is that scream so creepy? Did our army win or lose?"

"From the sound, it should be coming from outside the city. Our army must have won."

"That's right. With the Snake King here, how could we possibly lose?"

At this time, Huo Xi, Huo Bei, and Huo Zhong, three siblings, also rode in a carriage towards the city gate. When the common people saw this, they gathered around to ask...

"Master, Miss, are you going to the city gate?"

Upon hearing this, the three little guys stretched out their hands to pull aside the curtain of the sedan chair, poked their heads out, and said in baby voices, "Yes, we just received news that the enemy army is coming to attack, so we came to take a look."

"Quickly get out of the way and don't delay the military situation."

They had originally planned to sleep until midnight and then go to guard the city gate. As luck would have it, just when they were about to get up, a little mouse came to report that something had happened at the city gate and that the enemy had launched a surprise attack. Now the city gate historian and everyone else were resisting, so they asked the three little masters to hurry over.

The people of Youzhou all know that although the prince's five children are young, they are all extremely strong and have great martial arts skills. Most people are no match for them.

Moreover, they are gifted and know how to tame all kinds of beasts.

The Snake King and the sacred bird are the best evidence, as well as the driverless carriage they ride every day.

When the common people heard what they said, they all made way for them. After all, the master and the young lady rushed to the city gate to protect their safety.

So, they knelt on both sides of the street and shouted respectfully...

"Farewell, young master and young lady. I wish you a successful start and revenge for the eldest and second young masters."

"Revenge, revenge." There were constant shouts on the streets.

"Okay, so that you can live and work in peace in the future and no longer suffer from unnecessary disasters, and also to avenge my elder brother and second brother, I will kill them all without leaving a single survivor." Huo Xi lowered the curtain, murderous intent in his eyes. Although his elder brother and second brother were not directly killed by the Dayao Kingdom, they were also related. If they had not coveted the Golden Mountain and colluded with the emperor of the Moli Kingdom, his elder brother and second brother would not have been killed, and the people of Youzhou would not have to suffer from the plague anymore.

A plague has destroyed countless happy families. In order to prevent such things from happening again, the only thing to do is to become strong so that neighboring countries will tremble in fear when they mention Youzhou and never dare to invade again.

Seeing that the young master didn't say anything else, the gray horse immediately raised its four hooves and headed towards the city gate.

At this time, the enemy troops who had launched a surprise attack on the city had been burned to death by torches thrown by the Snake King, the Rat King, the City Gate Historian, and the soldiers.

The death was horrible. The body was burned directly into charcoal and the smell of the burning body lingered in the air for a long time.

"Miss, Master, why are you here?"

When the city gate historian saw the three Huoxi siblings, he was surprised. The enemy had launched a surprise attack, but he did not send anyone to the palace to inform them. How did they know about it?

Huo Xi looked like a little adult, his face dark, and he said in a cold voice: "In the future, if there is an enemy attack, you must report it. This is a matter of life and death for the people of the whole city, and it is not a joke."

The reason why the city gate historian did not inform them was that he took into account that the Snake King was at the city gate and the enemy's sneak attack would definitely not succeed. In addition, the eldest and second young masters had just passed away and the three young masters must be very sad, so he did not inform them.

"Yes, I understand." The city gate historian bowed respectfully.

Although the young masters are young, their abilities are unmatched in the army, including him, of course.

Huo Xi waved his little hand and said seriously: "Sir, give orders to wake up the soldiers and open the city gates. We are going to attack the enemy camp at night."

Upon hearing this, the city gate historian was shocked. Although they had temporarily won the battle, the remaining troops of Youzhou were only 200,000, and the rest were taken away by the prince. The army of Dayao State had more than twice as many people.

Otherwise, the crown prince of Dayao Kingdom would not be so arrogant.

How can they be opponents of others?

The city gate historian lowered his head and advised earnestly: "Master, Miss, now is the best time to send troops. Let's wait for the prince to come back."

The three Huoxi siblings seemed to have reached an agreement, and waved their hands together, saying...

"No, the timing is perfect now, sir. Go gather the soldiers and open the city gates to prepare for a night raid on the enemy camp."

"That's right, why can they sneak attack us but we can't sneak attack them?"
