Chapter 23: Birds and Beasts
"Childe, it's not too early, General Yuwen is worried about the situation in the imperial capital, and he has already taken a step ahead. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info "At the foot of Bodhi Mountain, Deputy General Yan Lingwei wore a green robe, rode a horse with a sword, and came to pay respects.
Yan Nanfei nodded, looked at Xue'er and Ling'er deeply again, and then took the reins from one of Yan Lingwei's hands and jumped onto a white war horse. Behind him, the ten sons of Yan Nanfei Academy's mirror platform also stepped on the war horses one after another.
The wind rises and kills, and the iron rider flies.
At the foot of Bodhi Mountain, Xue'er and Ling'er looked at the torrent of iron horses that gradually disappeared from their sight.
With a soft sound, the little pixiu flashed like a light and shadow on Xue'erxiang's shoulder mink. The little claws clawed their heads inexplicably, and their strange eyes looked into the distance......
From Bodhi Academy all the way to the east, this is a long way to go to the capital of the Great Yan Emperor.
Yan Nanfei's team is not as advanced as General Yuwen's high cultivation in the spiritual realm, even if the horses they ride are all thousands of miles of snow configured by the top generals of the Great Yan military, even if the Yan Ling guards and Yan Nanfei's ten sons and brothers are sleepless, day and night, if they want to cross this half of the world, it will still take at least twenty days and nights.
Of course, they didn't run all the way, and according to the original plan, after everyone reached the Luo River, they would change to the waterway. When General Yuwen escorted Xue'er to Bodhi Academy, the ship he was on anchored in the Luo River.
As for the question of whether to go against the wind and current, the Great Yan Empire has never been worried. There are countless cultivators in Yan Guoda, and there are not a few capable people who have been accepted by the imperial court and ranked in the court. Those people who cultivate the five-character gate naturally have no shortage of strange people and strange people, and they have the means to change the direction of the river. Therefore, on the Bishui River, no matter how you exercise it, it will be smooth sailing down the river.
In the starry night, the team led by Yan Nanfei passed through a small city, although the small city was small, it looked quite prosperous, and people of all kinds ran through the city.
A Yan Lingwei beside him inquired a little, and he knew that this city was backed by a cultivation sect, and the name was not easy for these people with extraordinary backgrounds to remember, only that it was a small sect among the eight hundred sects in Tiandong.
In the territory of Tiandong, there is the Great Yan Empire, the Bodhi Academy, the Seven Prefectures, and the Eight Hundred Sects. It can be said that it is an outstanding person, and the four major forces contain and balance each other, although there is no major conflict, but there are also small frictions.
However, at this time, Yan Bailou obviously had no interest and mood to pay attention to these, he just wanted to rush to the imperial capital as soon as possible.
The people had been on the road for ten days in succession, intending to spend the night in the city and rest for a while.
A Yan Ling guard found an inn in the city, and Yan Nanfei, along with his ten sons and brothers, led the horse and walked towards the inn.
"Huh, strange ......" Yan Nanfei's side, a handsome young man, turned his head to look back at the few figures who had just passed by the rest of them, his eyes showed a look of doubt, and he said to himself.
"What's the matter, Seventh Brother Gu?" Yan Nanfei and his ten sons and comrades were in the seventeen mirror platforms in the academy, ranking tenth. And Yan Nanfei was pushed to the position of the elder brother of the ten with the strength of the Rose Sword. He cast a questioning gaze, and then the rest of the ten sons and brothers around him also fell on the young man.
"Those few people are not from Tiandong. The young man surnamed Gu thought back and said.
"The seventh brother Xiuyi can speak well, when can you see a person's birth homeland by looking at his face?"
The sixth brother teased. ”
"You said that those people just now are not from Tiandong, could it be that the seventh brother knows them?" Yan Nanfei has always been thoughtful, knowing that his brother will not mention a few irrelevant strangers for no reason.
"Don't hide it from Brother Yan, those people seem to be from the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate!"
"Ten Thousand Beast Gate, do you mean that the Dixuan List is the ninth and the hundred refining families where Qianrou is located?" Yan Nanfei was a little surprised.
As far as he knew, the Gate of Ten Thousand Beasts was in the southeast, and it was twenty days away from here. Moreover, the Bailian family has been with all beasts for generations, and the people in the family have quirky personalities and rarely go out of the mountain. It is rumored that on the original Dixuan List, the guy who was refining Qianrou also left the Ten Thousand Beasts Gate and went to Zhongzhou after a long time, otherwise there would not necessarily be a place for that second dragon above Dixuan.
"Exactly. The people of the Bailian family have been hiding from the world for a long time, and they never go out of the mountain easily, so they don't know how to meet here. Gu Qi wondered.
"Isn't it easy to know why?
"Sixth brother! Our brother's trip is to escort Brother Yan back to Yandu. I don't know if there will be a hidden ambush along the way, so it's better to be cautious, cautious, and less troublesome. ”
Among Yan Nanfei's ten sons and brothers, this young man called the sixth brother is a short, flexible and alert teenager surnamed Yin Xingliu. The six-character door is the middle way of cultivation, a strange body method, and it is good at concealment. But he is in a hurry, and he often can't find anyone when he doesn't agree.
Forcibly pulled back, Yin Liu looked at Yan Bailou, who had a calm face, and smiled wryly.
Yan Nanfei said with a smile: "The seventh brother is too careful. It doesn't hurt to let Sixth Brother Yin take a look. The Hundred Refining Family never enters the world easily, and this encounter, maybe there is something hidden. ”
"It's still the eldest brother who is thoughtful. Wait for me at the inn, and I'll go back." Yin Liu left a word, and his figure disappeared from sight far away.
Gu Qi sighed deeply and shook his head.
Yan Nanfei's eyes revealed a deep cold light, which was fleeting. He immediately nodded to Vice General Liu behind him, who understood, and immediately ordered the four Yanling guards to follow closely.
And the group of them entered the inn.
No matter what this small city looks like on weekdays, there are often people wandering around the mountain gate, whether it is peaceful and peaceful. In short, in this small city under the starry night, there is a line of people from the Ten Thousand Beast Gate Hundred Refining Family who should not have appeared, which is by no means unusual.
There must be a reason for everything.
Perhaps Yan Nanfei didn't want to interfere in anything that had nothing to do with the safety of the imperial capital. This will only startle the snake and delay the trip. And once they enter the territory of Yan Kingdom, they will hide their whereabouts, not wanting to be seen by those with ill intentions.
But things often backfire.
Yin Liu followed the people of the Hundred Refining Family and sneaked out of the city quietly, followed by Yanling's guards to protect his safety. His departure was not as simple as everyone imagined, not only provoked things that should not be interfered with, but also brought back a person.
A half-orc with blond hair, blood on his hair, and a much stronger physique than the average human.
When Yin Liu brought back that person, he only knew that the latter was the target of the Hundred Refining Family's pursuit and killing at all costs.
The reason is very simple, it is said that a few days ago, that person seriously injured Bai Lian Qianrou, the heir of the Hundred Refining Family and the ninth in the Dixuan List, to the point of disability!
