Chapter 71: The Three Armies Compete in Eating Tofu; Tiger and Wolf Mountain Take Advantage of the Situation

  And then there's the group of rebel-suppressing generals in Jizhou City, who were first infuriated by Huang Shiren and then incited to a frenzy, each one rubbing their fists and grinding their palms, wanting to make a contribution to the country and plead for the people.

  When Tai Shi sat in town, Ji Zhou Hou Su Hu and Cao Zhou Hou Chong Hei Hu Can Jun, 200,000 soldiers gathered under the city of Ji Zhou, it was really murderous, just waiting for a good day to open the Tiger Wolf Pass.

  On this day, the weather was auspicious, and under the city of Jizhou, the city gate was wide open. The army set out, and Huang Shiren sat on that rickety wooden cart, just about to leave the city with Wen Zhong, Su Hu, and others, when they saw a group of people from the Su family come to see them off.

  "Your Excellency, Zhōngzhōng is my son. This time, I beg of you to allow him to serve the country." Su Hu pointed at Su Quanzhong, who was fully armed.

  "A tiger father begets no dog son!" Wen Zhong looked at Su Quanzhong with unending admiration.

  Su Quanzhong was only in his early twenties, but when he put on his armor and rode into battle, his prestige was no less than that of his father, and he too was a brave general.

  "Daddy, I want to go too." Tada saw her brother like this and was also happy, pulling Su Hu's arm and acting coquettishly.

  "Suddenly, Su Hu glared at her: 'Nonsense! This is war, not embroidery. What are you doing here, a little girl?!'"

  Daji was displeased upon hearing this. As a sixteen-year-old girl from a good family, she spent her days cooped up in the inner chambers, feeling suffocated to death. For her, going to war was uninteresting, but going out for a stroll wasn't bad at all.

  "Dad, I don't care, I want to go!" Taji hugged Su Hu's arm and shook it back and forth. She was originally a stunning beauty, and when she pouted, the surrounding generals were all mesmerized.

  "This said: 'Lord Hou, Miss Taizi wants to go, then let her go, we won't let her get hurt even a single hair.'"

  "That's right, that's right. Lord Hou, it doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."

  Many generals rushed to mediate, and Su Hu also seemed helpless, and could only look at Wen Zhong: "Taishi, this..."

  Wen Zhong's face turned red. The two armies were facing each other, and bringing a woman along was most unseemly!

  Although he had a mind to refuse, seeing all the generals one by one being bewitched, it was hard for him to speak out, so he kicked the ball to his master: "Master Uncle, what do you think?"

  "Alright!" Huang Shiren agreed without any hesitation.

  "Master uncle, this is war!" Wen Zhong's anger was so great that he pulled Huang Shiren over and said in a low voice.

  Haha... Old Huang burst out laughing and said: "One Daji is worth more than a million soldiers."

  "What does this mean?" Wen Zhong was stunned by Huang Shiren's words.

  This cheap person cast a flirtatious glance at Daji and immediately said: "This battle, then, is about morale. Wherever Daji stands, the young men's morale will surely soar, isn't that good?"

  It seems to make sense when heard. Men, after all, need to save face, especially in front of women. Daji is a stunning beauty, who would want to lose face in front of her?

  Not to mention, this cheap master really knows how to grasp people's psychology.

  "The military advisor is right!"

  "What a brilliant military strategist!"

  The crowd doesn't care about anything else, they just want Daji to follow them, and they all give Huang Shiren a thumbs up.

  Everyone is like this, and when they hear about Zhong, there's nothing to say, so they can only agree.

  "Thank you, Master Xie! Thank you, General!" Tadaaki cheered and jumped for joy, looking at Huang Shiren with a faint smile.

  Wow, this is really a case of husband and wife being in harmony! Not bad, not bad! Old Huang is so pleased with himself in the car.

  "Daji, I have a good horse here, you can ride it." Chong Heihu was a serious person and was afraid that Daji would get into an accident, so he ordered his men to bring over a gentle little horse.

  "Lord Hou, I don't like horseback riding. The little carriage of the military advisor sounds good." Huang Shiren's wooden carriage was indeed flashy, with peacock feathers and gold and silver inlays, which suited Da Ji's style.

  "Come on, come on, Taizi, I don't mind the squeeze." Old Huang couldn't get enough of it. Anyway, there was an empty space on the wooden cart, and he helped Taizi up onto it. The two sat together, a sight that made the eyes of the other generals bleed.

  Boom! Boom! Boom! The three cannon shots sounded, and the 200,000-strong army set off, with men as fierce as dragons and horses as ferocious as tigers, charging towards Tiger Wolf Pass.

  Sun Wukong exerted the strength of a nursing infant, but only managed to spin the wheels of the wooden cart like a top, and it flew forward like a flying arrow into the midst of the enemy army.

  "Is this car comfortable, Taizi?"

  Comfortable.

  "Haha, it's windy, don't catch a chill. Look at your cold hands, come on, Brother Huang will warm them up for you."

  "Hey Huang, tell us something interesting."

  "Is there anything interesting? No, let's just sing a song instead. I'll sing a little ditty for you to hear, okay?"

  "Oh dear! Oh dear!"

  "I'm singing, you have to harmonize."

  "How to match?"

  "You'll know when I sing."

  "Huang, your hands are too... too dishonest..."

  "Yes, this is a duet, if you don't cooperate, I won't sing."

  "Then... as you wish... you... be gentle..."

  "It's itchy but doesn't hurt."

  ……

  Huang Shiren, this scoundrel, took advantage of the fact that there were only a few people in the car and Monkey King had pushed the wooden cart to the front, where no one could see them. With his hands moving up and down like a pair of salted pigs, he was enjoying himself immensely, eating tofu with great relish.

  Na Daqi had a good impression of Huang Shiren before, and at this moment she was extremely ashamed, and could only let him have his way.

  Wukong was delighted in the back, thinking to himself: "My cheap master is really awesome! Those dogs behind are all like taking advantage of the situation, but they were all suppressed by my master with one move! This skill, this shameless cultivation, is truly brilliant! Good master! Wonderful master! Master is so cool!"

  In his mind, it appeared in front of his eyes, and with a burst of energy in his hands, he pushed the small cart away, leaving the 200,000 troops behind to eat dust.

  To make a long story short, the 200,000 soldiers were exhausted to death on the way, while Huang Shiren was living a life like an immortal, always eating tofu and taking advantage of others. In his spare time, he would tell Daji stories about "ripened peaches" and other nonsense, making Daji both love and hate him.

  On this day, the great army finally arrived at the foot of Tiger Wolf Pass. The pass was located between two large mountains, with a vast plain in front of it, majestic and unparalleled.

  That pass down, originally had Wen Zhong led away more than 100,000 troops, the two armies merged, set up camp, momentum like a rainbow.

  In the military tent, the generals discussed ways to defeat the enemy, some advocating for a fierce attack and others for a defensive siege, with the debate becoming increasingly heated.

  "Master Shu, what's your opinion?" Wen Zhong finally had to ask for Huang Shi Ren's view.

  When others were arguing, Huang Shiren didn't care at all and just went over to tell jokes to Daji, who was laughing out loud. This time, seeing Wen Taishi ask, he had to hold back that vulgar smile, clear his throat and say: "Everyone, I think the Tiger Wolf Pass is a treacherous place, if we launch a hard attack, there will be heavy casualties, it's not good."

  "What Master Shu meant was being trapped?"

  "Not necessarily." Huang Shiran shook his head: "This rebellion, of course, the sooner it's put down the better, otherwise there will be endless troubles."

  Everyone is so angry about this, for goodness' sake! Isn't it like I didn't say anything? This won't work, that won't work either.

  "What clever plan does the military advisor have?" Chong Hei Hu was anxious.

  Huang Shiren fanned himself with a feather fan and said, "As the saying goes, 'To capture the bandits, first capture their leader.' Tomorrow, when the great army calls for battle, that Yuan Futong will come out. With one move, we'll capture him, and naturally, everything will be settled."

  "General's words make sense!" Chong Hei Hu nodded his head.

  "Master Shu, that Yu Fu Tong's treasure in his hand is not easy to deal with." Wen Zhong frowned.

  "No big deal, tomorrow, just watch my skills." Huang Shiren smiled slightly, and the expression of the egg that was destroyed by his swift and decisive movement made Daji look at him with joy in her heart.

  This Huang brother, although a bit rough around the edges, has real skills. People like him!

  Everyone saw Huang Shiren like this and didn't dare say anything else, so they all returned to their tents to prepare.

  After dinner, Huang Shiren took Wukong out of the camp gate and looked up at the majestic pass. The night sky was bright and clear, with stars twinkling like diamonds, and the pass seemed like a giant beast lying under the night sky, its mouth wide open as if to swallow everything. Under the pass, the tents stretched to the horizon, and the sound of human voices was deafening, truly magnificent.

  "Alas!" Huang Shiren sighed at this scene.

  "Huang Da Ge, why are you sighing?" came the soft voice of Daji from behind him. Old Huang hastily turned his face, and saw that Daji was wearing a pure white long dress, under the moonlight, she looked like an immortal descending to the mortal world.

  Lao Huang supported Daji as they arrived at the high platform. The two of them faced the thousands of soldiers and horses, momentarily silent.

  "Taizi, do you think fighting is fun?" Old Huang said with a solemn expression.

  "It's fun!" Taji had a great time all the way and didn't say another word.

  "No." Huang Shiren shook his head and said, "Who doesn't want to live a peaceful life, with a warm wife and children by the stove? Only those who have been squeezed by the door would like to fight. On the battlefield, swords and guns are flying everywhere, corpses are piled up like mountains, which one is not a precious life, and who does not have a daughter or a family? This war is the most tragic thing under heaven."

  "As a cultivator, I shouldn't be involved in worldly affairs, but with the outbreak of war and the slaughter of innocent lives, even if it means sacrificing my own life, I accept it."

  Lao Huang's words were sincere, but also somewhat pretentious. However, when Daji heard them, she felt infinite admiration in her heart.

  "Huang Da Ge, tomorrow, are you really going on stage?" Ta Ji saw that he was being serious and had some concerns.

  "There's no way. Yuan Futong has a powerful backer, his magical treasure is very formidable, otherwise Wen Taishi would have been finished long ago."

  "Is the man behind Yuan Futong even more formidable than Huang?" Tairen was shocked.

  "I reckon, nine out of ten, it's still above me." Huang Shiren said with a bitter smile.

  "Brother Huang, aren't you in great danger!" Tà Jī was anxious. Since birth, who could treat her like that, who could make her heart beat so rapidly? Seeing Huang Shìrén's precarious situation, her heart was in a state of turmoil.

  "Danger! Very dangerous!" Huang Shiren's eyes widened and he said, "It's a narrow escape from death!"

  "That's it, Brother Huang, I won't let you go!" Tàozǐ didn't know what was going on in Huáng Shìrén's mind and became even more flustered.

  "It can't be helped. For the sake of the people, for the soldiers, to die for one person is nothing!" Someone's pretentiousness was so over-the-top that even Sun Wukong wanted to vomit behind their back.

  "Brother Huang!" Taizi was so anxious that tears fell down, and she didn't care about anything else. She rushed into Huang Shiren's arms, tightly embracing his cheap body, and whispered: "I won't let you die, I won't let you die."

  Seeing Daji like this, Huang Shiren was also moved in his heart.

  Alas, damn heaven! Such a good girl, how can I bear to give her up!? If you have eyes, tomorrow on the battlefield, let me show off once, and then hold onto the beauty and return. If you don't have eyes, heh heh, I'll go to your mother's!

  "Daji." Huang Shiren lifted up Daji's breathtakingly beautiful face, looked at that stunning visage, and said: "Everyone has a death, either as heavy as Mount Tai or as light as a feather. To die for the country and the people, I have no regrets, I am glorious, do you understand?"

  One sentence, spoken from the heart, made Taizi's heart ache with love and respect. The affection was like a boundless river, flowing endlessly, and like the Yellow River overflowing its banks, unstoppable. Crying out: "Huang Da Ge, I'm waiting for you! No matter if you're alive or dead!"

  "Good girl!" Old Huang held Tà Jī's face, leaned in, and kissed her red lips passionately.

  Under such circumstances, Daji could hardly refuse, and let him have his way.

  Behind him, Wukong burst into loud sobs: "Damn it's touching! This is what they call a perfect match! This is what they call a hero and a beauty! Master, you're really my idol!"

  Under the big wind, in front of the heroic pass, the sky is the canopy and the earth is the bed, Old Huang eats this tofu with a truly dignified and righteous demeanor!

  "Alas, I don't know if tomorrow at this time, I'll still have a life to eat tofu." When embracing Daji, Huang Shiren's heart was also filled with bitter smiles.
