A warm and comfortable place is a dangerous place, either to die in comfort or to survive in tribulation. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info

The rain kept falling and getting heavier and continued into the night.

In a small stockade in the southeast of the grassland, Rien and his companions once again defeated the strong enemy who came to sneak attack, this time they captured the third of the Void Slaves, but they could not stay any longer, he immediately ordered his companions to pack up their salutes, escorted the two captives out of the stockade, and rushed to the Liao River.

The rain had soaked their clothes, but fortunately they found the marks that Wang Meng had carved on the tree poles and rocks, and came to the banks of the Liao River, but because it had been raining, the river had risen sharply, and they could not cross the river for the time being.

While waiting, the sky gradually dawned.

It rained a little, and Li and Xiao Piye took turns to take Dong Jing and Zheng Lifeng and the two captives across the river with their bird mounts, and Zhao Caixia rode a phoenix mount in the sky to guard them.

After crossing the river, everyone was exhausted, Zheng Lifeng took out the skin, opened it and drank a few sips of spirits, and then threw the skin to his companions, the spirits can temporarily drive away the chill on the body, Xiao Biye said to Lien: "Alliance leader, we can't stay here for a long time, we must go to meet Li Haibo and the old time." ”

Dong Jing also said: "The Void Slave already knows our traces, so we must be fast, and it is best to avoid their ears and eyes!" ”

Rien twisted the water on his clothes and said, "Then let the Xiao guards be invisible for all of us, let's go north along the Liao River, hoping to catch up with Li Haibo and Wang Meng!" ”

Zheng Lifeng rode a white lion and was in charge of searching for the marks left by his fellow disciples, Xiao Piye was in charge of guarding, and Li En was in charge of escorting the two captives, and after they ate some boiled mutton, they continued on their way.

At noon, the rain was a little lighter, but it had not stopped, they came to a fork in the road, Zheng Lifeng saw a trace on a rock beside the road, so he stopped to inspect, Dong Jing also came over, and said affirmatively: "This is left by the same door of Shaolin Temple, the palm print is facing the northeast, it seems that they went to the northeast." ”

Rien asked the two captives, "Where is it from here to the northeast?" ”

The seventh child has been in a coma, and the third child said coldly: "It's Changbai Mountain, you won't go to Changbai Mountain too, right?" ”

Ryan said, "It's possible, but not for the time being!" ”

Zhao Caixia greeted everyone: "Look, there is a stone courtyard in front!" ”

Rien said to Xiao Biye: "Night Guard, you go and investigate, if it's safe, we will go in and rest!" ”

Xiao Biye responded, so he rode the cloud carving, hidden, and sneaked into the top of this courtyard, looking down from the sky, it can be seen that this is an old stone house, and there is no sign of human activity inside and outside. He gently jumped to the roof of the house, and then released the black tiger.

The black tiger roared, jumped into the courtyard, quickly got into the house, and soon came out again, Xiao Biye also slipped into the house, only to see that there were still ashes left in the room, and there were many irregular symbols carved on the walls, but among them was the mark of their Tianshan faction, and it can be seen from the marks that Zhao Jinfeng and Hu Yuanbo had stayed here.

Xiao Biye quickly inspected the other rooms and the backyard, and saw no one else, so he went out of the courtyard and said to Rien: "It's an empty house, it's safe inside!" ”

Rien said: "Then let's go in and rest, Zheng Xiashi, you leave a mark outside the door!" ”

Xiao Biye carried the two Void Slaves off their horses and placed them in the room. Li En asked Zhao Caixia to stay in custody, and he called Dong Jing to go to the next room with Li En, and said, "Zhao Jinfeng and Hu Yuanbo have been here here, otherwise we will wait for them here." ”

Xiao Zheng also entered the room and asked them, "Is there any situation?" ”

Rien said: "We have to contact our companions, we have to quickly find Li Haibo and Lao Shi and them back, Zhang Yupeng and they may go to Changbai Mountain to track down the whereabouts of Chief Huo." ”

Dong Jing said: "This is easy to do, I will build a fire in the yard and use the green smoke to transmit messages, but this smoke may also attract the enemy, so we need to leave the yard and ambush nearby!" ”

Everyone agreed, firewood and grass were easy to find, but because they were wet by the rain, it was difficult to ignite, and Xiao Biye's clothes were scratched by the iron claws of Bu Laosan, so he simply took off and started the fire. Zheng Lifeng took out a set of cotton robes from the salute and threw it to him, and said, "Wear it temporarily, you can't be naked, right?" ”

The fire was still lit, and the smoke was thick.

Ryan stayed in the room to watch over the two captives, while the others hid near the house.

Soon there was the sound of horses' hooves from the west, and Xiao Biye saw in the sky that the comers were a group of red-clothed horse bandits armed with scimitars, so he glanced at Dong Jing and Zheng Lifeng.

These horse bandits are naturally not their opponents, but they are afraid that the Void Slaves are also hidden in them.

However, a few knights came from the northwest, and the two groups met up and continued their way here.

A fork in the road appeared, a road to the north led to the courtyard, and the road to the northeast led to Changbai Mountain, the group of knights stopped, and the leader ordered his minions to go to the courtyard to inquire about the situation.

The leader looked at him and said aloud, "You are the only one, your companions?" ”

Xiao Biye looked at this leader and found that this person was Yelu Huzhen of the Liao army, and also asked: "It turned out to be General Yelu, isn't the general stationed in Yanbei?" Why did you come to the prairie, and it's still this makeup? ”

Yelu Huzhen said: "On the orders of our marshal, we came to the grassland to hunt down the fugitives. You released the smoke in front of you, right? ”

Xiao Biye responded: "Yes, I am also waiting for our companions to arrive, who is the general going to hunt down the fugitives?" ”

Yelu Huzhen stared at him, and then said: "The grassland is so big, how difficult it is to hunt down the fugitives, and the general doesn't care about the past two days, why don't you ask us to stay in the courtyard to rest for a while." ”

Xiao Biye naturally didn't want to have entanglements with the other party, but he couldn't obviously refuse, so he had to respond, and took them into the courtyard.

Yelu Huzhen immediately became vigilant, but still said politely: "The leader of the Li Alliance is also here, who are these two people, it doesn't seem that you Han, right?" ”

Rien said calmly: "Why did General Yelu also come to the grassland?" These two are the house slaves of Jiang Yang's thief Bai Mingqi! ”

Yelu Huzhen said: "Bai Mingqi's house slave, the void slave? What are you doing with the Void Slaves? It can't be for the treasure of the White Apocalypse, right? ”

Rien said: "We are not interested in Bai Mingqi's treasure, we can't hide it, Bai Mingqi instructed his subordinates to steal a very important thing from me, I led my companions to the grassland this time to recover the lost property, if General Yelu can help, I must be grateful, if General Yelu really can't pull away, then don't force it!" ”

Yelu Huzhen stared at the Void Slave and said: "Bai Mingqi's martial arts are strong, and his house slave's martial arts are not weak, although you have captured two, but there are still six, can you handle it with your little people?" ”

Rien then asked, "Is General Yelu willing to help?" (To be continued.) )
