Chapter 6: The End of the Road
Relying on some of the time wasted by the other party's entire army, Qiu Yundu has distanced himself from the other party, but he can still see the shadow of Bai Lanjun from a distance, how can Qiu Yundu have time to rest? Only to lead the army to escape, about half a day, suddenly found that the terrain in front of him was getting narrower, Qiu Yundu was suspicious, and asked Lao Yan: "I only care about escaping, but I don't know where I have arrived now?" ”
Lao Yan ran to a slightly higher place, checked it slightly, and rode his horse back: "If the subordinate material is good, I am afraid that I will have to reach the boundary of the first zero department." ”
Qiu Yundu's heart was cold when he heard this. He knows a little bit about the boundary of the first zero department, in the past, the first zero department was the Kelan department, but unfortunately there is no road further north, and there is one of the biggest problems, the Kelan department and the white orchid department are alliance tribes, if they and others rush forward, the white blue department cuts off the back road, and then the front and back with the Kelan department, then there is no way out.
Qiu Yundu was anxiously riding his horse around for a while, and seeing the Bailan Sergeant behind him getting closer and closer, Qiu Yundu immediately made up his mind and said, "Continue to walk and enter the realm of the first zero department." ”
When Lao Yan heard this, he was shocked: "If you enter the first zero department, then there will be no way back for me to wait." ”
Qiu Yundu shouted: "At this time, there is no way out for me to wait. With a wave of his hand, the Iron Cavalry rushed straight forward.
After escaping for a long time, he disappeared from the shadow of the White Orchid Sergeant, and Qiu Yundu knew that he and the others had entered the realm of the First Zero Division. Just as he was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard the sound of horses' hooves in his ears, and Qiu Yundu hurriedly ordered Zongyi to come forward to check, and soon reported back: "About 3,000 soldiers are coming in front, and it seems that it is the first zero army." ”
When everyone heard this, they almost fell into despair, and now, everyone really had no way to escape, Niu Ben shouted beside him: "I'm afraid of his mother, come on, let grandpa kill enough." ”
Qiu Yundu bowed his head and was silent, seeing that the Xianling Army was getting closer and closer, Qiu Yundu suddenly ordered: "The whole army rests on the spot, and must not act rashly." "Go ahead on your own. Seeing this, Niu Ben hurriedly followed alongside.
Seeing that the army was coming slowly, one of the two was about fifty years old, and the other was about the same age as Qiu Yundu, seeing Qiu Yundu and the two of them coming on horseback, they raised their hands to make an appointment with the sergeant, and waited for the two to approach.
When the older man saw Qiu Yundu approaching, he took a closer look at him and said with a smile: "Yundu came on a trek, why did he grudge with Bai Lanbu with great fanfare?" ”
Qiu Yundu was stunned for a moment and asked, "Do you dare to ask the leader?" ”
The man laughed and said, "I'm the first to ask for a lot." He pointed to the person beside him: "This is my son Guangbo." ”
Qiu Yundu hurriedly saluted: "I don't want Guangquan to come in person, Yundu is rude." ”
Qiu Yundu has also heard of Guang Qiulu, although this person is not included in the top ten lists, but he is by no means incompetent, his insight is far-reaching, quite strategic, the first zero department is in the Kelan Department, the Bailan Department, and the Fangdang Department are surrounded by three departments, but they can still turn around freely, it can be said that most of them rely on the work of Guang Qiulu.
Qiu Yundu remembered Guang Qiulu's question, and replied: "Yundu doesn't know how to offend the Bailan Ministry, Yundu originally wanted to take advantage of the road, and didn't dare to disturb at all, but he didn't want the Bailan Department to send thousands of soldiers to surround and suppress us, if you don't fight to the death, it will be difficult to get here." ”
Guang Qiulu snorted coldly: "The sect master of the Bailan Sect, Su Yuan, is too fond of the Daquan Shou Long Bide, but Long Bide is a person who is jealous of the ability, Yundu may want to understand the reason at this time?" ”
Qiu Yundu thought about it for a while when he heard this, and couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Could it be that he is burdened by Yundu's reputation?" ”
Guang Qiulu nodded and said: "Yes, Xu Yuansoap may have the intention to recruit Yundu, but Longbi has known your reputation for a long time, for fear that once you join the Bailan Department, it won't be long before his position as the head of the whole family will be taken away by you, so I simply take advantage of your current strength to be alone, it is better to kill you in one fell swoop." ”
Qiu Yundu was furious in his heart, but he said lightly: "I don't want Longbi to be such a small-hearted person." ”
Guang Qiulu asked again: "What about the casualties of Yundu's subordinates?" ”
Qiu Yundu felt a pain in his heart, and said with difficulty: "Although he broke out of the encirclement, he lost at least three hundred sergeants. "This thousand iron cavalry troops are all elites, and now they have lost more than 300 people in the first battle, and Qiu Yundu's heartache is difficult to regain.
Guang Qiulu said: "If my expectations are good, the Bailan Sergeant has already camped at the border, and Yundu cannot return, so where to go from Yundu can be decided?" ”
Qiuyundu said: "Please give me some advice." ”
Guang Qiulu smiled and said: "Yundu is a smart person, why use me for guidance? To the north is the Kelan Department, I expect you to fight with the Bailan Department, the Kelan Department is afraid that it will not be able to accept you, now Yundu is under siege, there is only one way out, if Yundu has a heart, I am willing to lead the way. ”
Qiu Yundu did not hesitate when he heard this, and said to Guang Qiulu: "If you can get Guangquan's first success, Yundu is grateful, and fortunately I can often listen to Guangquan's teachings in the future." ”
When Guang Qiulu heard that Qiu Yundu agreed so easily, he couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he immediately stepped forward and grabbed Qiu Yundu and laughed: "Okay, to be honest, I have admired Yundu for a long time, and today I finally got what I wanted." ”
At that moment, Qiu Yundu returned with Niu Ben and announced to everyone: "Only now can we survive if we join the first zero department, but fortunately, Guangquan led the way, saving Mo Duo trouble." ”
Hearing this, Chao Suo Tu hurriedly said: "Young Master, don't you know that the sect master of the first zero department will test this person?" This man is insidious and cunning, jealous and treacherous. Lewd and lustful, he is one of the most despised sect masters in Gu Li, how can the young master serve him? ”
Qiu Yundu was speechless for a while, and said next to him: "If I don't join the first zero department, I will have nowhere to go, and now I can only take one step at a time, and the young master has decided very well." And they were silent.
At the moment, led by Guang Qiulu went straight to Kaisha City, the main city of the first zero department, and stayed outside the city, Qiu Yundu ordered the iron cavalry to rest outside the city, and Guang Qiulu sent someone to send dry food and cooked meat to feed the sergeants.
The sect master of the first zero department was rewarded by the more early he was examined, and ordered the main leaders of the first cadre to gather in Dazhai and wait for Qiu Yundu to come.
The three of Qiuyundu followed Guangqiulu into Dazhai when they landed and attracted everyone's attention, at this time Qiuyundu was quite famous in Guli, and everyone had to see with their own eyes what this Qiuyundu looked like.
As soon as Qiu Yundu entered Dazhai, he saw Yue Jikao sitting on a wooden chair. Yue Jikao was five years old Chinese New Year's Eve, but he had been the sect master for nearly ten years, and I saw him reclining on a wide wooden chair, his eyes dull and lifeless. On the right hand side of Yue Ji Kao is a person about thirty years old, his expression is the same as that of Yue Ji Kao, lazily leaning on the wooden chair, yawning incessantly, the only difference from Yue Ji Kao is that his eyes are full of mockery when he looks at Qiu Yundu; On the left hand side of Yue Ji Kao is a person about forty years a year, dry and thin, but his eyes are bright, and he can't help but look at Qiu Yundu; Qiu Yundu had to be secretly introduced by Guang Qiulu, only to know that the person on the right of Yue Ji was his younger brother, and the first zero sub-sect master Yue Lu Bei, and the one on the left was the first zero part of the Shi Bi Ji.
The time to enter Dazhai is still short, and Qiu Yundu has no time to observe others, so he hurriedly knelt down and bowed: "The person in distress, Qiu Yundu, led his subordinates to visit the sect master. ”
Lao Yan and Chao Suotu have always seen the sect master with a military salute when they were in the fine sealing department, and they didn't need to kneel to meet them, and they originally wanted to meet with a military salute when they came here, but when they saw Qiu Yundu kneeling and saluting, they were not good at standing, so they had to kneel down with Qiu Yundu.
Seeing that Qiu Yundu was so respectful, Yue Jikao seemed to be very satisfied in his heart, raised his head slightly and said, "It turns out that Qiu Shaoquan has arrived, well, excuse me." Then the three of them got up.
Yue Jikao continued: "I heard that the head of the Daquan said that you came to take refuge? ”
Qiu Yundu bowed down and said: "Exactly, we have admired the sect master for a long time, and we know that the sect master is like the sea, so I have traveled thousands of miles to come, and I hope that the sect master will have mercy and take us in." "Words are extremely humble.
Yue Jikao nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, Qiu Yundu, you also have a reputation, and joining the first zero department is also good for our department, so I agreed." ”
Qiu Yundu hurriedly knelt down again and bowed: "Thank you Sect Master for your kindness!" Lao Yan and Chao Tu had to kneel down again.
But I listened to Yue Lu don't say lazily: "I have always heard that there are few geniuses in Qiuyundu in the Fine Seal Department, and he is one of the three young leaders of Gu Li, and his reputation is far and wide." It may sound like a compliment, but anyone can tell that there is mockery in the words.
Qiu Yundu didn't dare to get up when he heard this, and hurriedly said: "The sub-sect master is ashamed of me, the people of the various departments don't know the details of their subordinates, and they deliberately elevate me with false rumors, and today the sub-sect master also saw it, if his subordinates have a little talent, how can they be so embarrassed?" I have heard that the sub-sect master is heavy and far-sighted, and from now on, the sub-sect master will need more guidance, and his subordinates will definitely benefit immensely. ”
Yue Lu's eyes lit up when he heard this, but he was a headless and brainless person, seeing that Qiu Yundu was so respectful to him, he thought that Qiu Yundu was telling the truth, although he had heard a lot of compliments, but it was really rare for Qiu Yundu to say so well, and he couldn't help but be really happy, and pretended to be majestic: "Since you have a heart, of course I won't hide my secrets." ”
Seeing that Qiu Yundu had coaxed Yue Lu into a daze with just a few words, Ji Wuwu couldn't help but be vigilant, and asked slowly: "Chief Qiu, since the sect master has promised to accept you into the first zero department, what do you have in return?" ”
Qiu Yundu was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but hesitate, to be honest, the current Qiu Yundu is poor, so what can I give to Yue Jikao? Fortunately, he reacted very quickly, and said continuously: "The subordinates have nothing else, only a cheap life, dedicated to the sect master." From now on, it will be sent by the suzerain. ”
Yue Ji Kao nodded, but Ji Wuxian would never let him go easily, and continued: "I know that you have a reputation, and your knowledge must be extraordinary, and now the sect master is having a problem, I wonder if you can solve the sect master's worries?" ”
Qiu Yundu was stunned for a moment and said, "I still hope that Shibi will make it clear." ”
Yue Jikao's eyes lit up when he heard Ji Wuwu's words, and he seemed to have just reacted, and said first: "Exactly, I am now worried about how to break through the Kolan Department, do you have an idea for Qiu Yundu?" After Yue Ji finished speaking, Guang Qiulu, who was standing below, had already changed his face.
Qiu Yundu was shocked when he heard this, and said secretly: "Break through the Kolan Department? How could it be so easy? Seeing Yue Ji Kao looking at himself with anticipation, Qiu Yundu knew that he couldn't tell a lie, so he said honestly: "The subordinates are honest, although the first zero department is stronger than the Kelan department at the moment, it is difficult to break through the Kelan department in a short period of time, and the sect master can ......."
Before Qiu Yundu finished speaking, Yue Jikao had already interrupted him and said, "Okay, okay, since you don't have an idea, you don't need to say more, forgive you for your young age and no good idea." He leaned back in his chair.
Qiu Yundu's face turned red, and he was speechless for a while, but Yue Ji suddenly asked, "Is there a female dependent among the people you are brought?" ”
This question was very abrupt, Qiu Yundu couldn't figure out why he wanted to ask this sentence for a while, and when he quietly peeked at Guang Qiulu, he saw that Guang Qiulu's face had become extremely ugly, and Qiu Yundu had to answer honestly: "There is no female dependent in the nearly 1,000 people brought by his subordinates. ”
Yue Ji was even more interested, and said, "Then you wait and retreat." He got up and was about to leave, but he heard Guang Qiulu below already say loudly: "Sect Master, the head of the autumn dynasty is coming, and the sect master should take the lead." ”
Yue Ji was quite impatient, but he couldn't refute Guang Qiulu, so he sat down again and said to Ji Wuxian: "How to arrange it in terms of interpretation?" ”
Ji Wuwu pretended to ponder for a while, and said: "Sect Master, Qiu Yundu is also a famous person, don't wronged him, let him be the head of the thousand regiments, and go to Yuedi to garrison." ”
The head of a thousand regiments! A small thousand group leader also said that it was not a grievance, Guang Qiulu couldn't bear it anymore, and stepped forward and said: "Sect Master, how can Qiu Yundu's talent be shown by a small thousand group leader?" Besides, the land is desolate, why do you need a garrison? I implore the Sect Master to reconsider. ”
Qiu Yundu hurriedly said: "The subordinates have thanked the sect master, the subordinates have just come to the first zero department, and they have not made an inch, and it is an exception to be able to serve as the head of the thousand regiments, and the subordinates thank you here." ”
Guang Qiulu was stunned for a moment, and Yue Ji said: "Since Qiu Yundu has agreed, this matter is decided." "Get up and leave.
Guang Qiulu sent Qiu Yundu and the three out of the city in a daze, and said dejectedly: "I originally wanted to keep Yundu by my side, but I didn't want it to be like this. ”
Qiu Yundu said to Guang Qiulu: "Don't be anxious, although Yundu is not by the side of Daquan Shou, everything is under the orders of Daquan Shou. ”
Seeing his earnest words, Guang Qiulu felt a little relieved, and sighed: "It's a pity that there are very few scattered people in Yuedi, and Yundu will have to suffer a little when he goes here." ”
Qiu Yundu smiled: "Daquan is worried, what is a little pain?" ”
Guang Qiulu's heart suddenly moved, and he whispered to Qiu Yundu: "Although Yue Di is desolate, but Shao Di in the northeast of Yue Di is good, there was originally one of my subordinates stationed, and then I was withdrawn by me because of something, these days I am planning to send him back, since Yun Du has gone, then I don't need to send people again, Yun Du will control Shao Land, you have lost a lot of soldiers before, you and replenish the sergeants there, no matter how much, you don't need to report to me." ”
Qiu Yundu really jumped up with joy when he heard this, Ji Wuwu let him be the head of a thousand regiments, he really had no opinion, because Ji Wuwu arranged him outside, which was exactly what he wanted. Now that Guang Qiulu has privately given him another piece of land, and he is allowed to replenish the sergeants, this should really be a good thing, but Qiu Yundu will not show his excitement on his face, but asked worriedly: "The sect master only asked me to be stationed in Yuedi, if I go to Shaodi to camp without permission, wouldn't it violate the order of the sect master?" ”
Hearing this, Guang Qiulu pointed at Qiu Yundu and laughed, and after a long time, Fang laughed and said: "Yundu, Yundu, why is your head so bad at this time?" You are still stationed in Yuedi, and you must not be stationed in Shaodi, where I will no longer arrange for others, but the people, cattle and sheep of Shaodi can enjoy as much as you want, isn't it just like your own? ”
Qiu Yundu pretended to be suddenly enlightened, and bowed to Guang Qiulu deeply: "Thank you Daquan for taking care of you, and after that, Yundu will only be the first to look forward." ”
Guang Qiulu nodded, patted Qiu Yundu's shoulder, and said, "Don't worry, I will send someone to visit you regularly, if you lack anything, just ask." Qiu Yundu's heart moved, and he said: "If this is the case, the subordinates really have something to ask for the head of the family." ”
Guang Qiulu did not hesitate and said, "Yundu just speaks bluntly. ”
Qiu Yundu said: "When Yundu fled, he left the familiar weapon axe blade gun in the Dragon Underworld City, and now he has not taken advantage of the weapon, Yundu wants to ask the head of the Great Quanquan if he can send someone to make one?" ”
Guang Qiulu smiled: "What's so difficult about this? At that moment, he asked about the weight, length and shape of the head of the axe-bladed gun, and said, "When it is ready, I will send someone to Yundu." Qiu Yundu even claimed to be grateful.
