On this day, Huo Feng and the others from the Taipingdian Inn finally set off and headed towards Xiangyang City.

And Liu Ruyi, who had some insomnia last night, got up late, and Kang Lei was not easy to urge, so he passed by Huofeng and others......

In an abandoned courtyard on the outskirts of Xiangyang City, Zhu Tianpeng's wounds were treated, but he was still seriously injured and unconscious. He was guarding Yua Mikami, but Mikami didn't know where he went.

In the palace, Xiong Zongwei and Sima Linghui reported the situation to Concubine Chu, saying that they had already checked, and all the people on the list who were a threat to themselves had indeed disappeared from this world, and the two of them were confident that they would win the position of the leader of the Martial Arts Alliance!

However, when Concubine Chu said that Xiong Zongxiao's two sons died at the hands of headhunters, Xiong Zongxiao's eyes went dark and he almost fainted......

In the Xiuyuan Village on the outskirts of Xiangyang City, the five princesses and the left beast were looking at the painful death and life in front of them, and the shepherd wolf rolling on the ground didn't know what to do......

The fifth princess said: "Zuo Beast, you are also a master, how to solve this cold poison!" ”

The left beast didn't know who this young man who was covered in bruises and poison in his body was, but he didn't dare to ask. He could only see that the fifth princess was quite concerned about this young man, so he could only rack his brains to help the fifth princess think of a way to detoxify......

Zuo Beast said: "Your Royal Highness Princess, this kind of poisonous villain will not solve it...... Let's go find a Lang Zhong nearby and let Lang Zhong take a look! ”

The fifth princess also had no choice but to say, "Then you go and come back quickly!" Be sure to invite the best doctor in Xiangyang to this princess! ”

When the left beast heard this, he hurriedly went out to find the doctor.

The fifth princess looked at the shepherd wolf who was covered in sweat but had a cold body, and cried: "Let you do it, now you will be punished!" When I pour pepper water on you, wouldn't it be nice if you screamed twice! Shepherd, you idiot! ”

After about a quarter of an hour, the cold poison on the shepherd's body stopped, and the poison flare-up every three hours, and once it lasted for a quarter of an hour or so.

However, the shepherd wolf passed out due to the severe injuries to his body. His current body is really a mess, weak and unpresentable......

The fifth princess hugged the fainted shepherd wolf, wiped the sweat from his forehead for him, stroked his cheek, and said, "Now you are well-behaved, if you keep being so well-behaved...... Don't worry, I'll cure you of the cold poison......"

After Huofeng and his party came to Xiangyang, Bi Ling in the arms of the poisonous snake still did not sense the existence of the shepherd wolf, which made Huofeng and the others very puzzled.

You Long said: "Don't worry, let's go to the palace and ask Concubine Chu Guifei to know!" ”

So, the five of Huofeng came to the palace and asked to see Concubine Chu. Concubine Chu was startled when she heard that five more headhunters were coming, and she also remembered that the shepherd wolf in Xinye City had indeed sent a few headhunters out, saying that they were going to divide their troops to kill the people on the list to the west.

After Concubine Chu took a deep breath, she said, "What are you afraid of, they can't find out anything!" Even if they find out, Hongu will be able to find a way to destroy them! Let them in. ”

Huo Feng and the other five people came to Concubine Chu's palace and said, "I've seen Concubine Niangniang!" We have already killed the beggars Lu Dacong, Zeng Xiuzi of the Hengshan faction, Lu Ming of the Bajimen, Murong Ke of the Murong family, Wei Youhuang of the Qingcheng faction and others, and I have come back to restore my life! ”

Concubine Chu hurriedly said: "A few people have worked hard! Your meritorious deeds will be reported to the imperial court and rewarded! ”

Huo Feng said: "Guifei Niangniang, there is no need to reward or anything, but I don't know where my general is now?" ”

Concubine Chu hurriedly pretended to be surprised and said, "What? You don't know where General Mu went? I thought that General Mu had left a letter for you...... General Mu is a person who likes to accept the orders of foreign kings, and this palace doesn't know what he is doing with the headhunters......"

Huo Feng felt a little strange at this time, could it be that the Heavenly Wolf couldn't wait and had already gone to attack Chen Guo? Huo Feng hurriedly said: "Guifei Niangniang, I don't know when my general left Xiangyang?" ”

Concubine Chu said: "Coincidentally, General Mu also just left, yesterday, the palace wanted to go to Xiuyuan Fort to give my family Mei'er a hexagram, and then General Mu took the headhunters under his command out, saying that the palace has the protection of the people from Xiuyuan Fort, and he is not needed." ”

What Concubine Chu said was indeed quite like that, and it was indeed possible for the Shepherd Wolf to set off to the front line to attack Chen Guo in advance, Huofeng didn't ask much, so he said: "Since that's the case, then I'll retire first!" After speaking, the five of Huofeng left the palace.

After coming out, the poisonous snake said: "If the general hadn't found out the purpose of the concubine, he shouldn't have left Xiangyang and gone to Xianning." ”

You Long said, "But didn't you say that Xiangyang really can't feel the existence of the general?" This can only indicate that the general went to a distant land. ”

The poisonous snake said: "No, there is another possibility, that is, something happened to the general......

Huo Feng hurriedly said: "Let's go, go to that Xiuyuan Fort and have a look!" The remaining line mother of Xiuyuan Fort was originally Concubine Chu's person, and the last place the general went to was Xiuyuan Fort, how could it be so coincidental! ”

After speaking, the five of them came to Xiuyuan Fort non-stop. However, at this moment, the Xiuyuan Fort was empty, and there was not a single ghost......

Looking around, I still didn't find any clues. The poisonous snake said: "There is a strong smell of blood in the air, there must have been a big battle not long ago, but the ground is so clean, someone must be trying to deliberately hide the secret behind it......"

Mu Qinghong sniffed vigorously and said, "Why can't I smell it......"

Kang Jiulong hurriedly pulled down Mu Qinghong and said, "Qinghong, don't talk nonsense, listen to what Brother Viper has to say." ”

Mu Qinghong said: "Uh...... That, although I didn't smell anything, but Xiuyuan Fort turned into an empty city overnight, which must be strange! And just now, didn't Concubine Chu say that she now has the protection of the people from Xiuyuan Fort, so she doesn't need a general? This shows that the people in Xiuyuan Fort must have gone to Concubine Chu's side! Concubine Chu must know the inside story! ”

Huofeng felt that Mu Qinghong was right, and hurriedly said, "It seems that we still have to go back to find Concubine Chu......"

Although they knew that the Shepherd Wolf was very likely to have an accident, Huo Feng and the others did not believe that the Shepherd Wolf and the Wild Lion and the others would be killed by Concubine Chu overnight. They felt that with the means of Mu Tian Wolf and others, even if the masters of the southern martial arts were together, they would not be able to kill everyone overnight!

They stubbornly believe in this! Or rather, they would never accept that the shepherd wolf was dead!

Huo Feng and the others asked to see Concubine Chu again, which made Concubine Chu even more panicked, and she hurriedly sent someone to find the four ghosts of Pingjiang and Xiong Zongxiao, Sima Linghui and others to escort her, because she knew that the headhunter didn't care what her identity was, and in the eyes of these guys, there was no imperial power at all, only a shepherd wolf.

Concubine Chu said, "Didn't a few of you go to find the shepherd wolf?" How did you get there and come back? ”

Huo Feng said: "Guifei Niangniang, we went to Xiuyuan Fort, but for some reason, there were already people there, and we didn't even see a ghost." ”

When Concubine Chu heard this, she hurriedly said, "Hey, it turned out to be for this!" It's also that the palace didn't make it clear for a while, the people of this Xiuyuan Fort have abandoned the darkness and turned to the light, and are willing to submit to the imperial court, so they follow the palace. Lord Yubao, come out. ”

After speaking, Yu Xiaoxiao walked out and said, "I am Yu Xianniang, the castle master of Xiuyuan Fort, I am willing to follow the noble concubine Niangniang and serve the empire, do you have any opinions?" ”

The poisonous snake said: "We don't care who you are with, but why is there a strong smell of blood in Xiuyuan Fort!" What happened last night at Fort Xiuyuan! ”

When Yu Xiaoxiao heard this, she reacted very quickly, and said, "A few of you are really observant!" Yes, there was indeed a fierce battle in our Xiuyuan Fort last night, and I wanted to serve the Empire, but some people in the Fort were unwilling, so there was a conflict. This is the housework of our Xiuyuan Castle, and a few of us can't take care of it, right? ”

Concubine Chu was also very satisfied with Yu Xiaoxiao's explanation, and hurriedly said: "Let's go to General Mu quickly, don't delay your efforts here in the palace." ”

When the poisonous snake heard this, he was already angry, he wanted to capture Concubine Chu and ask what happened! But Huofeng stopped him and said, "Let's go!" It's all about ...... long term."

After speaking, Huo Feng and the others left the palace again.

Huo Feng said: "So far, there are only two possibilities, one is that the general has encountered an accident, and the other is that the general has gone to Chen State. And there are two ways in front of us, one is to go to the general, and the other is to give up looking for the general, return to the capital, and tell the emperor the secrets of Yu Hualong and Concubine Chu, the Golden Daomen, Xiuyuan Fort, Sima Shijia and other forces that we found in the Golden Daomen. ”

You Long said: "Since the general has entrusted you with the heavy responsibility, then you can decide." ”

Huo Feng said: "No, this matter can't be decided by me. I grew up with the general, and I have long regarded him as my relative, and if I choose, I will not care about the overall situation, I will only care about the general's life and death...... If you think you should focus on the general, then we will go to the general! If you feel that the safety of this world should be the priority, we will give up the general......"

Mu Qinghong said: "Can we divide the army into two ways, find the general all the way, and go all the way to the capital to expose the conspiracy of Concubine Chu and Yu Hualong." ”

Huo Feng said categorically: "No! If something happens to the general, it means that Concubine Chu has a strong force behind her, and once we divide our troops, there will definitely be danger. But if the general really went to Chen Guo, it means that he already knows about Concubine Chu's conspiracy, and he has also made arrangements, and we will only startle the snake if we act rashly. ”

After listening to this, Mu Qinghong said, "It's so troublesome...... Then I listen to Kowloon, and what he says is what it is! ”

Kang Jiulong said: "I think we should find the general first, after all, he is our backbone." If something happens to him, we won't be able to save the world. ”

You Long also said: "Kowloon is right, finding the general is the most important thing. ”

The poisonous snake had already turned over and said, "Let's go to the direction of Xianning and walk for a while to see if Bi Ling will have a sense!" If the general really went to Xianning, Bi Ling would definitely have a sense. If it still doesn't work, then we will arrest Concubine Chu directly, and I believe she will tell the truth obediently! ”

Viper has always been very confident in his torture to extract confessions, and so far, no tough guy can hide a secret in front of him, let alone a delicate concubine Chu.

After speaking, the five of them hurriedly left Xiangyang City and rushed in the direction of Xianning......

In the palace, the person sent by Concubine Chu came to report and said, "Back to Niangniang, those five people have already left Xiangyang and rushed to the direction of Xianning." ”

Concubine Chu said disdainfully: "Sure enough, it is a group of simple-minded guys with well-developed limbs, and this palace sent them away in a few words...... They're afraid they'll never find the wolf! ”

But as soon as Concubine Chu's words fell, another guard came to report and said, "Qi Guifei Niangniang, there are two people outside the palace who ask to see you, saying that they are here to find General Mu." ”

When Concubine Chu heard this, why did anyone still come to Mu Tian Wolf, and hurriedly said, "What kind of two people are they?" Are you wearing a mask? ”

The guard said: "It's not a headhunter wearing a mask, but two pedestrians, a man and a woman, saying that they are friends with General Mu." ”

Concubine Chu said: "Friend? Will the shepherd have friends? Hehe...... You go and tell them, just say that the shepherd wolf has left Xiangyang, and the palace doesn't know where he went, let them look elsewhere! ”

The people who came were naturally Kang Lei and Liu Ruyi.

The two were waiting outside the palace, and Liu Ruyi said, "Brother Kang Lei, are you going to follow General Mu to be a headhunter in the future?" ”

Kang Lei nodded and said, "Yes, in the past, Jiulong and I wanted to follow General Zhang Luo and help him fight against bandits, so as to repay him for saving our village's life." But now that the battle in the north has been fought, General Zhang Luo does not need us. Jiulong wants to follow General Mu, how can I, who is an elder brother, let him run around alone, so I just follow General Mu together. ”

Liu Ruyi said: "If General Mu comes out in a while, I can just take a look from afar...... I will stay in Xiangyang and go to see the martial arts conference tomorrow. ”

After hearing this, Kang Lei was also a little distressed by Liu Ruyi, and said, "Miss Liu, why are you so troubled?" Since you're here, why don't you make it clear to General Mu face to face! ”

Liu Ruyi smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, we have made it very clear between us, what he likes is the county lord, and I am just an outsider......"

Kang Lei also sighed and said, "Then after you stay, remember to look for me for something, since Liu Dashuai entrusted you to me to take care of you, how can I ignore you......"

Liu Ruyi nodded and said, "Well, Ruyi knows, and thank Brother Kang Lei for taking care of him along the way." ”

While the two were talking, they saw the doorman coming from the palace, and there was no one behind him. Kang Lei hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Brother guard, what's going on?" ”

The doorman said: "It's unfortunate that the two of you came, General Mu went out with the troops, and even our concubine Niangniang didn't know where General Mu went, only that General Mu was no longer in Xiangyang." ”

When Kang Lei and Liu Ruyi heard this, they didn't know where to go for a while......

After being stunned for a while, Liu Ruyi said: "It's okay, Brother Kang, with General Mu's style of acting, there will definitely be news of him soon, we just need to wait in Xiangyang." Why don't we go and see this martial arts conference tomorrow? ”

Kang Lei said: "That's it, that's the only way." ”

So, Kang Lei and Liu Ruyi also pounced, so they had to find a place to live first.
