When Guo Yuanzhen and his entourage captured the monarch of the vassal country, two thick pillars of smoke rose from the peak in the distance, which was responsible for watching the wind and the situation.

So there was no time to interrogate again, Guo Yuanzhen grabbed the thick and fat neck of the monarch of the vassal country and said viciously in Tubo: "The Tibetan army has been killed, if you don't want to die, you will confess a hiding place!" Don't tell me you don't, Lao Tzu's eyes can penetrate people's hearts, if you want to penetrate the camp, you will never carry so many treasures! ”

As he spoke, he raised his leg and kicked over a cage near the left, and many gold and silver artifacts suddenly rolled out of the cage, the craftsmanship may not be exquisite, but the treasure is charming.

It has to be said that although the situation in the Tibetan region is chaotic and the strength of the local indigenous tribes is not strong as a whole, it is also really rich, otherwise it would be difficult to serve as a transit point for Tang and Tibetan trade all year round by virtue of its geographical advantages.

"You, are you a Fan or a Tang? I, I have the protection of the gods of the mountains and rivers, and I enjoy the offerings of the mountains and rivers here, and if I kill me, I will be ...... by the gods."

The monarch of the vassal country also replied tremblingly in Tubo, but he was greeted with trembling.

"Lao Tzu is a strong man of the Tang family, handsome and majestic, how can he be a slave and a thief! The great fortune of the Tang Dynasty protects all over the body, how can you be afraid of the revenge of your barbarian earth god? Quickly answer the question, and if there is half a nonsense, I will kill you on the spot! ”

Guo Yuanzhen grabbed the neck of the earth king and slammed his head violently, without any respect.

"Yes, yes! From here, I went west, crossed two hills, and there was a manor of mine, sheltered by ditches and ridges on both sides, and the Tibetan army did not know ......"

The monarch of the vassal country hugged his head and said bitterly, but then his eyes rolled, and he said with some embarrassment: "But that manor is a place for my children and grandchildren to avoid disasters when I am in danger, and it is not large, if there are too many strong men, I am afraid they will not be able to enter the ......."

"Ha, Lao Tzu only has a few strong men in front of him, and he can directly break through the royal capital of your Fanbang. Now that you have a place to hide, hit the road now and don't make any more senseless temptations! If you think that delaying time can let the pawns rush to the rescue, Lao Tzu will naturally pull you to the back of the earth king before he dies! ”

Hearing Guo Yuanzhen's blunt statement that there was no back road brigade, the monarch of the vassal country first stared at disbelief, but after a while, he turned into a tangled and bitter face, and only sighed to Guo Yuanzhen: "Admire, admire!" If there are such loyal and brave soldiers available in my country, how can I be willing to become a plaything of the Fan Kingdom! ”

The king of the earth was held in Guo Yuanzhen's hand and pointed out the direction of the road, but when he saw that Guo Yuanzhen didn't pay attention to the goods he brought out of the manor, he couldn't help but feel sorry again.

His own guards had been slaughtered by this group of wolf-like thugs, and these people would not help him carry his goods, how much could he take with his own hands? Fleeing in times of crisis, what he can pick up and bring with him is naturally the most precious goods accumulated over the years, and it is really sad to abandon them.

So the king of the soil had the courage to grab it with both hands, and ordered the nobles of the vassal countries who were escorted by Guo Yuanzhen and others to take it as much as possible.

Guo Yuanzhen didn't stop this, after all, this commotion was not really to wipe out the attached royal family, and his plan also needed the cooperation of the earth king, so it left some time for these nobles of the attached country.

At the same time, in line with the principle that thieves do not go empty, Guo Yuanzhen also instructed the attachés to select some small treasures to carry on their bodies without affecting their actions. He is not an incorruptible character, he can forge ahead in big things, and he is not even so-so in small sections.

A quarter of an hour later, as Guo Yuanzhen paused, his attachés immediately stopped moving, jumped three times on the spot and lined up, even if some treasures fell, they all turned a blind eye and stopped picking them up.

The group of nobles of the vassal country were still waiting to continue to collect it, but when they saw Guo Yuanzhen and the others entering this posture, they were all busy and stopped, and then under the leadership of the monarch, they went straight to the inside of the mountain col.

On the way, the wives and daughters of several vassal monarchs were weak after all, and even if there were horses to travel, they still dragged their feet when they hurried.

At this time, without waiting for Guo Yuanzhen and others to raise their dissatisfaction, the monarch of the vassal country had already cheered again and again, but seeing that the speed of these female dependents still did not improve, he turned over and dismounted, walked to the front of several female dependents and dragged off the horse, took out a short blade from his sleeve, and directly killed the path one by one, and then got on the horse without changing his face and continued to move forward.

"Let the strong man of the Tang Kingdom smile, but my small country is weak, it is not easy to survive, and nothing cannot be abandoned. I am not old, if I can survive this disaster, there are still women in the clan to recruit, and I can also have children, it is not worth dragging down the trip for these people and giving up their lives. ”

Seeing Guo Yuanzhen frequently looking at him, the monarch of the attached country forced out a smile and explained a little.

When Guo Yuanzhen heard this, he couldn't help but feel even more speechless, but he didn't take Chinese ethics to apply these barbarian customs. Dragons and phoenixes, each with its own way.

The group trekked along the mountains, changing directions, but barely able to make it all the way.

Guo Yuanzhen was in a hurry, while remembering some obvious mountain signs he saw along the way, his sense of orientation and memory of the road was very strong, which was also a kind of talent, otherwise it would be difficult to understand the terrain and layout around Daowu City so clearly just by watching from a distance on the peaks and ridges.

In the first half of the journey, the group could still vaguely hear the echo of the men and horses fighting between the peaks and mountains from Daowu City, but gradually, this sound disappeared.

After wading through a valley, Guo Yuanzhen suddenly stepped forward, pointed at the earth king who was in charge of guiding the way, and said angrily: "This realm has been walking forward for half an hour, but it was in Shanyin at that time, and now it is in Shanyang!" ”

As he spoke, he raised his eyes to look at the silhouette of the halberd on the top of the mountain.

When the monarch of the vassal country heard this, his face changed slightly, and then he spoke: "The ability of a strong man to know the way is really admirable. But here the valley is already twists and turns, and the mountain peaks are precipitous, so you can only wade through the valley. ”

When Guo Yuanzhen heard this explanation, his face softened slightly, and he motioned to continue walking.

After such a winding journey, in the evening, the group did not know how far away from Daowu City.

But before dark, I still rushed to the vicinity of a naturally formed karst cave, which was cloudy and humid inside, and dry outside, and even on the high stone platform, there were some clothes and fresh food, enough for more than 100 people to eat.

It can be seen that the monarch of the vassal country was also meticulous and careful when arranging this retreat, and he also did not lose top secrets, because even the commander who had led Guo Yuanzhen and others to hunt down the monarch before arrived here, he was amazed.

When he took out the food and sat on the ground to eat, the monarch of the vassal country looked at his guard commander and sneered: "You have turned your back on the king, stabbed my son, and sold my life to survive for yourself. But from now on, as long as you and your blood relatives stay in the Great Collection, I will kill you!" ”

"Settle down!"

Guo Yuanzhen shouted angrily while slapping the approaching mosquitoes.

The monarch of the vassal country was still ruthless just now, but after hearing Guo Yuanzhen's scolding, he suddenly changed to a sneer, and said with courtesy: "The mountains and forests are traveling, all kinds of inconveniences, please bear with the strong man." By the time I arrived at the manor where I was hiding, the food and lodging had improved greatly. ”

For such a living treasure, Guo Yuanzhen really has nothing to say. For his wife and daughter, he kills when he says he wants, and he is vicious to his subordinates, but he is attentive to his enemies. It is no wonder that after the annexation of Tibet, the Tibetan region left behind this puppet despite the continuous rebellion in the region.

After the meal, night fell, and the group did not dare to make a fire in the mountains and forests, and even the horses were arranged in a cave a few miles away from the cave.

The group of people lay down on the spot, and in order to prevent the king of soil from escaping or causing trouble, Guo Yuanzhen directly tied it tightly with himself. Of course, the sharp weapons on the earth king's body, including gold and silver ornaments, were all looted. If it weren't for the fact that he was too unappetizing with a fat body, Guo Yuanzhen would even want to strip off his clothes and attract those annoying mosquitoes for himself.

Encountering a drastic change, the Tuwang naturally couldn't sleep at night, so he whispered to Guo Yuanzhen: "May I ask why the strong man attacked my country?" Could it be that you are an official envoy sent by the Tang State? Because our country broke off the worship and surrendered to Tibet, did it come to attack? Alas, our country is also in a dilemma, originally guarding this mountain to live a stable life, and in the early years it was also an honor to become a Chinese vassal. But after that, the news was cut off, although there were constant Tang people, but they were only businessmen, and they didn't see Tang officials come to ask, and they were persecuted by Tibet......"

Not to mention the chatter of the earth king, Guo Yuanzhen fell asleep soundly. In the past period of time, he was full of worries and worries, and today's fierce fights are really a little unbearable.

When the earth king heard the snoring in his ears, he also felt bored talking to himself, and tentatively stretched out his hand, and then he felt a rough scabbard, and a low voice sounded in his ear: "What are you touching?" ”

On the side, a Tang army soldier sat cross-legged with a knife, and although he couldn't see his fingers in the cave, he still stared at the every move of the black shadow of the earth king.

If they had not said anything all night, they would continue on their way the next morning after their meal, and they had to drive the mountain road for two days in a row before they arrived at the hiding place that the king of the earth had said.

When Guo Yuanzhen looked around at the terrain, he found that they had traveled for three days, and the final place they arrived at was actually in the ravine behind a few peaks behind the peaks and cliffs of the Fan army garrison outside Daowu City!

Seeing Guo Yuanzhen's surprise, the monarch of the vassal country raised his eyebrows at him proudly, showing off his clever plan.

In this regard, Guo Yuanzhen can only sigh that if people give up their temperance to get happy. He used to think that he was very happy, but after meeting this earth king, he realized that his previous self was not really happy.

The manor is long and narrow, and there are dozens of slave families belonging to the royal family who live here all year round, and it is like a paradise for fishing, fishing, and hunting. The bamboo building near the mountain is indeed much more comfortable to live in than the cave.

But even if Guo Yuanzhen wants to be comfortable, he will not come to this poor mountain and remote place, and after a short rest, he will mention this soil king to the bamboo building, and said with a straight face: "It's time to talk about it, what is the purpose of my trip." Don't feel that being kicked out of the capital is a danger to you, if you can help me succeed, even my Datang can help you restore the country! ”

When the monarch of the attached country heard this, his eyes immediately widened, his face flushed, and he didn't know whether he was really looking forward to it or deliberately pretentious, in short, he was very excited, so that Guo Yuanzhen moved slightly towards the window of the bamboo building to prevent this guy from pounced on him and made any disgusting actions.

"I've been waiting for this day for a long time! I know that the Celestial Empire will not abandon my vassals, and there are still documents of tribute and endowment in the country! ”

As he spoke, the monarch of the attached country took out an old silk book from his side and held it to Guo Yuanzhen with a sincere face.

Guo Yuanzhen was surprised when he heard this, and when he looked down, he casually threw the silk book on the ground, and said in a sullen voice: "This is the former Sui Xishu, which has nothing to do with my Datang!" ”
