When they left Sealed Fire Town, everyone was silent, just keeping their heads down and hurrying away.

Last night, Li Qing had already asked in detail about the terrain around Luhuai Mountain. Although there is already some distance from Chuyi here, Li Qing's heart is not steady.

Mengzi and Erya are both Li Qing's playmates, and he knows how much Mengzi cares about Erya. Er Ya ran away in a bad mood and came to Sealed Fire Town, but Mengzi did not follow. Li Qing was almost certain that something must have happened on Mengzi's side.

Although he recaptured Chuyi, Li Qing did not know the whereabouts of the enemy. Yesterday I chatted with Lu Huaishan all night, if the enemy appears here, then they have only one target, Shanyang Town.

Shanyang Town extends in all directions, and is located in a valley, which is not suitable for defense. Could it be that the enemy's goal is far more than Shanyang Town, and there are other plans?

I haven't seen you for half a year, and I heard Erya say that Mengzi's current ability is not what it used to be. But he hasn't shown up until now, which shows that the enemy he is facing is also extraordinary.

The future is difficult, Mengzi is his brother, and Li Qing is not willing to affect innocent people. Before dawn, Li Qing had already left the town with steamed buns and Erya.

To Li Qingli's surprise, there were already three people standing under the big locust tree at the entrance of the town: Chen Mubai, Situ Xiu and Lu Huaishan.

When everyone saw each other, there was no superfluous explanation, and they just stood face to face. Li Qing was now somewhat moved in his heart, no matter what purpose these people were for helping him, the danger he was going to face was real. If it were in normal times, Li Qing would definitely persuade them to go back, but today is different. If these people are friends or foes, and I insist on not taking them, it will definitely make them suspicious, and if they are not enemies, thank you for your help.

Li Qing arched his hand and was the first to cross the stone pillar. Embarked on the official road outside the town.

Shanyang Town was originally very prosperous, and tonight it was even brighter. The old mansion of the Qi family has changed its owner again, and Helian Gui is standing in the flower hall, looking up in a trance.

Today's battle was really a fluke, if it weren't for Chu Huaichuan's violent attack and killing Zhou Ran at the critical moment, I don't know who it is standing in this flower hall now.

"General. A general walked in briskly and bowed.

"What about the casualties?" Helian Gui did not turn around, and his voice could not hear joy or sorrow.

"Returning to the general, the last general took an inventory. In this battle, 723 soldiers were killed and 44 wounded. ”

Helian Jue turned his back to the general and waved his hand, his eyes were a little moist, it seemed that he was still too proud, and he always thought that the warriors of Tianlong were not good at riding and shooting. With a little more preparation, his brothers would not have suffered so much damage. Helian Jue made up his mind, and when this time happened, he went back to ask his father to resign, and he saw Qianqian again, what worship to the prime minister and marquis, in Helian Jue's opinion, it didn't matter, he just wanted to take Qianqian, and live in seclusion in the mountains and forests from now on, no longer pay attention to court disputes, and live a life of idle clouds and wild cranes.

"I said Brother Mu, although it is true that he Helian Jue is the son of the city lord, but if it weren't for him today, he wouldn't be able to capture Zhou Ran for a long time, so why should we attack in advance? At the speed at which Heluohou is advancing, we will at least have to stay until dawn. If there is an enemy in the middle of this, how can we defend it with such a few people?" Thinking about it, he was really angry in his heart, and his hand holding the dust was trembling slightly.

The Taoist chief said cautiously. Mu Feiyu walked to the door of the tent, lifted the curtain, and looked outside. Seeing that there was indeed no one around, he breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and looked at the Taoist priest, "Anyway, he is the son of the city lord." Although all the elites we brought out, in the final analysis, they were also soldiers of the Helian family. There were heavy losses in this battle, but with his fourth son in front, the city lord couldn't blame us too much. For so many years, if it weren't for the sake of the family, who would want to live a life of licking blood with a knife?"

The two men were talking as they packed their clothes. Complaining is complaining, and things have to be done. Thinking of the solemn lobby of the City Lord's Mansion, the hearts of both of them trembled a little.

Li Qing led everyone along the way very carefully. But contrary to Li Qing's expectations, he drove for two hours, not to mention danger, and did not even encounter the shadow of an enemy.

Although the journey was very smooth, Li Qing had experienced too much in the past six months, and there were still two or three miles away from Shanyang Town, and Li Qing climbed a high slope alone. I looked up at the moonlight in the sky, and it was already past the hour. At such an hour, even if Shanyang Town is prosperous, the people should rest. But Li Qing looked at the town under the hillside, but it was still brightly lit.

There is something abnormal, and Li Qing must deal with it carefully. He decided to take the steamed bun and the second girl to the town to investigate first. As for the other three, Li Qing didn't want them to go along. After all, they have just met, in case there is any problem with these people, once they face danger, the three of their brothers and sisters will not be attacked on their backs.

What Li Qing didn't expect was that when he heard his idea of dividing his troops into two ways, the three of them didn't have any objections, and they were all gearing up and eager to try.

The town of Sanyo is nothing but a small town in the mountains. Although it was a thoroughfare, the city defense could not catch up with the majestic and strict state capital, so how could they stop Li Qing and the others? With almost no effort, the three of them had already climbed over the city wall and entered the town.

Looking at the soldiers coming and going on the street, Li Qing's heart sank. Before coming, Li Qing had been reluctant to believe it. Shanyang Town not only has its own brothers, but also Jian Dahu, what kind of enemy is it? Can Shanyang Town be taken away from the hands of Jian Dahu and Mengzi?

After a long day of busy work, several important positions in Shanyang Town have been deployed. Helian Qi relaxed a little and walked towards the backyard.

For him, the people who were being held in the backyard were almost as important as the goods of Heluohou. With Jian Dahu's identity, Helian Jue is almost certain that tonight will not be so peaceful.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Helian Jue smelled a strong smell of blood. Shanyang Town is a small town, and if you want to talk about big families, only the Qi family is quite spacious. Therefore, the backyard of the Qi family is not only used to lock people up, but the brothers who were injured in today's battle are also placed in it for healing.

Through a wooden door, the miserable wails were heard endlessly. Although he has experienced a lot of fighting over the years, Helian Jue still subconsciously stopped. He was very grateful to Gong Jiu, and he was also very grateful to the old man named Xue Fan. If it weren't for Gong Jiu's efforts, how could this Xue Shi from Wenliu Villa do his best to heal his brothers?

The backyard of the Qi family's old mansion is desolate and dilapidated, but it is very spacious. In a row of houses to the east, which is still intact, Jian Dahu and the others are imprisoned. To the west and north, the houses were somewhat dilapidated and filled with wounded soldiers. There are not only the soldiers of the greedy wolf banner, but also the warriors of the evil unicorn. After all, every time a warrior who saves an evil unicorn is equivalent to an extra weight in his hand for Helian Jue.

As soon as he entered the courtyard, Helian Jue saw the old man sitting in the distance. There was a square table in front of him, and there was wine and food on the table. In such an environment, the old man's demeanor was still leisurely, but the disciples he brought with him were running back and forth one by one, busy.

Helian Jue frowned, but didn't say anything, turned around and took a brocade box from the soldier behind him, which was a gift he had specially prepared for Xue Fan. As long as the old man in front of him is dedicated, hundreds of lives will come back to life in this courtyard tonight. So Helian Jue took out the "Ruyi incense" that he had treasured for many years. There is no other use for this thing, there is only one use, and that is meditation.

Whether it is for those who practice martial arts or those who practice medicine, although meditation sounds simple, it is difficult for people who have been practicing for many years to maintain a calm mind for a long time. And with one of these wishful incense sticks, it can allow a person to quietly cultivate for seven days and seven nights, which can be regarded as a priceless treasure for cultivators in the world.

The seven ruyi incense sticks in the brocade box were specially given by Helian Jue's father when he was an adult. Over the years, although he has faced many difficulties, Helian Gui has never been willing to use them, but today, for the sake of these brothers under his hands, Helian Jue took them out.

When he was still ten zhang away from the old man, Helian Jue was stopped. A young man and a sword appeared in front of Helian Jue. didn't speak, just stared at Helian Jue like this, his eyes were as cold as ice.

"Helian Jue has seen Master Xue. After all, there is a request for others, Helian Jue had to say that his posture was very low, he didn't care about the rudeness of the youth, he just bowed down and greeted the old man in the distance.

"Jing Qian must not be rude. When the old man heard the call, he turned his head and saw the young man standing in front of Helian Jue with a sword. The old man's face changed immediately, he stood up in a panic, accidentally knocked down the wine jug on the table, still unconscious, took three steps and made two steps, and ran towards Helian Jue.

"Don't step aside yet!" the old man yelled at the young man with the sword, turned to Helian Jue and smiled, "My disciple is stupid, he only knows how to practice martial arts, but he doesn't understand the world, he is rude in front of the general today, the old man will definitely discipline him well, and I hope the general will not blame." ”

"Where, where," Helian Jue said with a smile on his face. "The little brother is loyal to the liver and courage, and the nurse is heartfelt. It's too late for Helian Jue to admire such a loving and righteous character, where can he blame him? Fang is entangled in military affairs, so he has time to visit Master Xue at this time, and I ask Master Xue not to blame. ”

The two of you say a word to me, each with a plan in his heart, but his face is very humble. Xue Fan heard that the brocade box contained Ruyi incense, and pushed it up, but his eyes were smiling.

is the so-called taking people's money and eliminating disasters with people, although he had to come because of Gong Jiu's face, Xue Fan himself was too lazy to do it, and just asked his disciples to treat the soldiers. Now that he got the Ruyi incense, Xue Fan was embarrassed to drink, and hurriedly beckoned the disciples to remove the wine and food on the table and re-lay the paper and ink.

Xue Fan went to see them one by one, and the prescriptions were prescribed one by one. Some of the disciples grabbed medicine and some decoction, and the courtyard became busy and orderly. Gradually, the wailing was not as loud as it had been at first, and Helian Qi relieved his heart a little, got up to say goodbye to the old man, and walked towards the east side of the courtyard.
