Shao Zhenyu glanced sideways at Shao Qifeng and motioned for him to explain.

Shao Qifeng was hindered by the status of the clan elder, so he had to stand up and say: "Elder Jia, we fell for the enemy's plan to divert the tiger from the mountain, resulting in the annihilation of the whole army, we are despicable and incompetent, and our subordinates are willing to dismiss our posts to apologize!"

Jia Yucai's face changed when he heard this, and he was about to shout.

Shao Zhenyu hurriedly took over the words and replied: "Elder Jia, this matter of the mine source is our judgment is wrong, after investigation, there should be a force involved in this treasure grabbing, the other party is extremely clean and neat, and he is a master of using guns!"

Then he bowed his head and said, "My subordinates suspect that the people from the Seven Killing Peaks have intervened!"

Jia Yucai asked with a little surprise: "How can you see it!"

Shao Zhenyu continued: "My subordinates sent out two commanders and forty elite soldiers last night to explore the route of the mine, but all of them were exterminated, and they were all killed by marksmanship, except for the strongest among them, the rest were killed by one shot. To be able to exterminate them so unexpectedly, his subordinates thought that it was difficult for ordinary people to do it, and his marksmanship was so powerful, very similar to the people of the Seven Killing Peak!"

Shao Zhenyu added with an embarrassed face: "And the treasure should have been taken away by this person!"

When Jia Yucai heard this, he was furious and said: "Qibao has been taken away? You waste! All are waste!? What are we here for? I don't care if the army is completely wiped out, but Qibao is our purpose, how do you plan to explain it to the inner court?"

Shi Xinyan, who was standing on Elder Jia's left side, was also full of anger at this moment: "Hmph! Shao Zhenyu! You should know the rules of the inner courtyard, such an important matter has been messed up by you, and you will suffer it when you go back!"

Hua Feng, who was standing on the right side of Elder Jia, said with a smile: "Shao Zhenyu, when you go back, you will report the situation to the inner courtyard this time, it depends on your luck whether you are dead or alive!"

Shao Zhenyu had no choice but to take over the words with a disgraced face: "Yes, this time the responsibility is all under my subordinates, I hope that the three elders can help me with my hard work!"

Shao Qifeng stood aside with his head bowed and didn't dare to intervene at all, secretly complaining for Shao Zhenyu, I'm afraid the clan elder is even worse than me.

Jia Yucai pondered for a moment and said, "You quickly take me to the cave of Qibao and explore it, just in case something is missed!"

Shao Zhenyu had to take the lead in exploring the mine again, and Shao Qifeng and the four commanders followed silently.

For the sake of the strange treasure of the mine source of Fuchou Mountain this time, the six commanders and three elders of the outer courtyard were secretly placed, and the Shaw Clan troops were used as the open action, and the broken military gate was hidden in secret, which was originally no problem, but by chance, the Nangong clan turned the tables, and the mine source camp was almost wiped out, and now the treasure is nowhere to be found.

In the east of the city tower, Nangong Xuan, the commander of Yancheng, was restless, anxiously walking around in the commander's camp, and suddenly a herald came to report: "Report! The head of the family has a reply, please check it!"

Nangong Xuan finally relaxed, took the letter and immediately opened it, only to see that it was written: "Nangong Xuan, open it in person." I have already learned about the siege of Yancheng by the Shaw Clan's troops, so don't worry! I have already sent my dog Nangong Shangqing to lead the troops to rush back to help, and at the same time send a letter to inform the Ningcheng Fang Clan's troops to come to the rescue, you only need to guard against it for a few days! After reading the letter, a big stone hanging in Nangong Xuan's heart was put down.

He shouted: "Order, all city gates are strictly guarded, the east gate, the south gate, and the west gate, if there is any situation, report it immediately! Let the left and right guards take turns to keep an eye on the granary!", and the heralds immediately scattered and ran non-stop.

There are more than 600 miles away from Ningcheng on the road, the dust is flying, and I see that thousands of elite soldiers are all in the hurry, and the high flag is printed with the word Nangong, which is the Nangong clan troops who went to Ningcheng for help, there is a carriage in the center of the troops, and there are only Nangong Junyi, the second son of the Nangong clan, and Wang Yanxu, the captain of Yancheng.

Wang Yanxu said: "Second son, my subordinates have a secret to tell you!"

Nangong Junyi smiled: "There are only two of me in the car, we have been friends for so many years, you don't need to use honorific titles, let's call me Nangong Junyi!"

Wang Yanxu said with a smile: "Okay, it's about the mineral source treasure, that treasure has already been obtained by me!"

Nangong Junyi was surprised: "Really?!What kind of treasure, let's talk about it!How did you snatch it from under the noses of the Shaw Brothers troops and the broken army?"

Wang Yanxu began to talk a little meaningfully, Nangong Junyi listened to it and laughed, and he already knew everything in about a quarter of an hour.

After Wang Yanxu finished speaking, he asked, "Do I need to hand over this strange treasure?"

Nangong Junyi smiled and said: "You have already confessed to the Lord with blood, how can you turn it in? I can only hand it in if I kill you! Do you want to hand it in with your life?"

Wang Yanxu said embarrassedly: "That's definitely not good, my life is more precious than this!"

Nangong Junyi then smiled and said: "I'll tease you! This heaven and earth treasure has its own ability to choose the master, since it has chosen you, it means that you are its master, and our family is not bad for this treasure! You hide it well, don't let the broken army door find out!"

Wang Yanxu nodded and smiled: "Thank you, Second Son! Your subordinates will definitely serve the family well!"

Nangong Junyi said with a straight face: "It's also called the second son, there are no outsiders, so you don't have to be restrained!"

Wang Yanxu said embarrassedly: "After all, there are generals of the Nangong clan all around here, and subordinates should still be cautious!"

Nangong Junyi waved his hand and said, "That's it, let it be, talk about the treasures of heaven and earth, and tell you a story about our family!"

Wang Yanxu nodded and asked, "Okay, what is it about?"

Nangong Junyi didn't answer, and said directly: "When I was a child, I read the family tree and biography, according to which it is recorded that our Nangong clan is a very ancient big family, and when the six major sects were not born, they were already one of the most prosperous families in the Kyushu continent. ”

Wang Yanxu was surprised: "Is it so strong? The six major sects feel that they are already the top forces in the Kyushu Continent!"

Nangong Junyi continued: "Yes, it is said that at that time, the first head of the Nangong clan was called Nangong Jun, who was one of the best sword gods in the world, and he could also be said to be a sword idiot, he was gifted since he was a child, and he learned all the swordsmanship, and later traveled the world alone just to find a sword, so there were countless enemies, but no one was his opponent, although he had read all the swordsmen of Kyushu, but he was not satisfied." It was at this time that the Nangong clan reached its peak under his leadership and gradually became famous in Kyushu. ”

Wang Yanxu interjected: "Did Nangong Jun's predecessor find a divine soldier that satisfied him later?"

Nangong Junyi replied: "I found it later, it is said that I found a very powerful divine weapon on a treasure hunt. At that time, the heyday of several major families all went, but Nangong Jun got the magic weapon, called "Taiji Sun and Moon Sword", and it was also because of this magic weapon that Nangong Jun was almost invincible in the Kyushu continent, and it is said that he was already respected as the sword god at that time, like a mythical figure. Later, the Nangong clan also reached its heyday!"

Wang Yanxu said with envy when he heard this: "This divine soldier is very powerful when he hears the name! I really want to see it! Is this sword still in the Nangong clan now?"

Nangong Junyi replied: "That sword has long been missing, it is said that after Nangong Junxian went, this "Taiji Sun and Moon Sword" disappeared, and no one can see it anymore, which is why the Nangong clan collapsed and gradually declined, until now..."

Wang Yanxu comforted: "Nangong Junyi, don't be discouraged, as long as we work hard from generation to generation, we will definitely be able to restore the former prosperity of the Nangong clan!"

Nangong Junyi smiled: "Yes... Be... Are you still optimistic, let alone before the restoration, the six major sects will overwhelm the major families. ”

Wang Yanxu was embarrassed when he heard this: "That's all temporary!"

The two of them chatted happily, but Wang Yanxu didn't notice that when they mentioned "Tai Chi Sun and Moon Sword", the "Bafu Qinggang Mirror" in his pocket flashed with a faint light, as if he was responding to something.

When night falls, the moonlight is hazy, and layers of clouds obscure the starlight.

On the road more than two hundred miles away from Ningcheng, tens of thousands of elite soldiers in front of them rode horses and galloped endlessly, heading towards the Nangong clan's troops.
