On the scorched ruins, there was still the scorching heat of last night, Li Ang walked among the rubble, as if looking for something, suddenly he squatted down, picked up the blackened mask on the ground, wiped off the smoke marks on it, the mask returned to its original silver, Li Ang looked at it, remembered the bits and pieces of the past acquaintance with King Qiling, and stood in place for a while.

"Captain, Captain!" The sound of the tiger and leopard riding sounded in the distance, and the sound of footsteps woke Li Ang. Hiding the mask in his arms, Leon turned around, his face still as grim as ever.

"Captain, the corpses have been counted, and there are a total of one hundred and seven enemies who came last night." The tiger and leopard riders who came as they looked at the increasingly majestic Leon and replied loudly, "Almost all the chambers have their corpses, the people in the post station have not left any alive, and only one of the Uighurs and Tiele missions has survived. ”

"Is the princess of Tiele also dead?" Hearing this, Leon looked at the tiger and leopard rider. The tiger and leopard rider nodded.

"The Turks are crazy." Li Ang muttered to himself, and suddenly walked to the front hall, when Gao Huan left, he handed over everything to him to take care of, although he was still only a captain, but with the imperial black horse order given to him by Gao Huan, he could mobilize all the troops in the clouds.

The Taishou Xia Yu in the clouds paced restlessly in the antechamber of the post station. The tiger and leopard riders served tea from the ground and did not take a sip. The Turks attacked the post station at night, and there were quite a few of them, no matter how you said it, he was too derelict in his duties, one was not good, and the loss of official affairs was small, if he was implicated, his head might not be guaranteed.

Leon walked into the antechamber. Looking at Yun Zhong Taishou, who was dressed in red and black official uniforms, he frowned.

"Xiaguan see General Li!" Sweat broke out on his head, and he also heard that Gao Huan gave the black knight order given by the emperor to a young lieutenant, but he didn't expect Li Ang in front of him. It seemed that the evil aura on his face was three points heavier than that of some veterans in the army, and the coldness between his eyebrows made him even more frightened, what they were most afraid of as civilian officials was dealing with these sharp young officers, and the set of things in the officialdom was useless to these war-hungry young people.

"Xia is too polite, and Li Ang is just a lieutenant." After Li Ang returned the salute, he looked at Yun Zhong Taishou in front of him, his figure was not tall, but he didn't look thin. He looks ordinary, and his eyes are always squinted. Hidden from the deep. You can't underestimate the characters, Li Ang made a preliminary judgment in his heart.

"Where the words. Li Duwei is in charge of the Black Cavalry Order, and it is the Imperial Dynasty..."Xia Yu wanted to say some polite words to ease the solemn momentum in the hall, but Li Ang and the tigers and leopards around him who were not smiling and had cold eyes gave him a strong sense of oppression.

"Xia Taishou, I don't know what you think about what happened to the Turks last night?" Li Ang interrupted Xia Yu, who hated this procrastination habit of the civil officials the most.

"The lower officials were not properly governed, so that they were taken advantage of by the Turks. Xiaguan..."

"That's enough, Xia Taishou." looked at Xia Yu, who was talking cautiously. Li Ang interrupted him, he didn't want to talk to this civil official, since he didn't want to say anything, then only he would give orders, "I want to arrest the whole city, go to check the inn in the middle of the city, I also want all the documents for entering and leaving the city gate in the past few days, and all the people in the city who have a relationship with the Turks, all of them will be taken into custody." ”

Listening to Li Ang's words, Xia Yu looked at this young lieutenant with a cold face, hesitated for a moment and said, "General Li, isn't it too late to detain everyone who has something to do with the Turks, there are a few big merchants in the city, and they have always traded with the Turks, this..."

"All of them are taken into custody." Li Ang looked at Xia Yu in front of him and said coldly, "Before they clear their suspicions." ”

"Then, the lower official knows!" Xia Yu glanced at the young lieutenant in front of him with a faint murderous aura in his eyes, and responded, the expression on his face sank.

Looking at Xia Yu who walked out, Li Ang smiled coldly and looked at the tiger and leopard rider beside him, "Pass on my order, let Yunzhong Zhichong Mansion get ready, and be famous at any time." ”

"Whoa!" Listening to the cold voice with a killing aura, the tiger and leopard rider beside Li Ang answered in a loud voice and strode out of the front hall. The surrounding tiger and leopard riders looked at his figure, their eyes showed a cold killing intent, more than 100 Turkic masters sneaked into the clouds, if you want to say that there is no internal response, you don't believe it if you kill them, those who secretly collude with the Turks should all be killed.

The dim candle flame jumped, Ashina Sheer was lying on the bed, his eyes were deadly silent, the decoction on the side of the bed had been cold for a long time, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Li Ang, who walked in, frowned, and then stared at the Turkic prince whose eyes were sunken, and the white veil on his right shoulder faintly had a dark red blood mark, and said coldly, "If you want to die, just be simple." After saying that, he pulled out the horizontal knife at his waist and threw it on the bed.

"You're a piece of waste, so your father, your uncle abandoned you, and that Turk should have killed you yesterday!"

Looking at the horizontal knife beside him, there was a hint of anger in Ashina Sheer's disgraced eyes, he grabbed the handle of the knife sharply, and then struggled to stand up and rushed towards Li Ang.

Looking at Ashina Sheer, who couldn't even stand steadily, Li Ang punched him in the abdomen, and the Turkic prince was immediately knocked to the ground, his body curled up, and his forehead was full of cold sweat.

Picking up the horizontal knife from Ashina Sheer's hand and slowly putting it into the scabbard, Li Ang looked down at him coldly and turned around, "You are so pitiful. ”

"Kill me, kill me!" Ashina Sheer howled, his voice hoarse, like a beast of despair, his people abandoned him, his right arm was broken, he could no longer ride a horse, he could no longer wield a sword, he had no life to speak of, life was only pain, endless pain.

"Do you really want to die?" Li Ang suddenly turned around, squatted down and stared at the Turkic prince with a painful face, and said quietly, "You don't want to take revenge, to take revenge on those who have abandoned you for the sake of ambition?" ”

"Revenge, revenge!" Listening to Li Ang's voice, Ashina Sheer's expression became wild, his face continued to struggle, and at some point, his left hand was placed on the right shoulder where he had lost his arm, his eyes became hideous, and he muttered to himself, "I want revenge, I want revenge." ”

Looking at the shouting Ashina Sheer, the corners of Li Ang's mouth had a smile, hatred is always the best reason to keep a person alive, Daqin needs this Turkic orthodox heir, as long as he lives, even if his hands and legs are broken, it doesn't matter.

After venting, Ashina Sheer's heaving chest gradually calmed down, and he looked

Li Ang's face was blurred, and he asked in a deep voice, "I'm just a wasted person, I can't ride a saber, how can I take revenge?" ”

"Live." Li Ang looked at Ashina Sheer, showing his white teeth, and his voice had a demagogic power, "As long as you live, you will have the opportunity to go back and become the Khan of the Turks, and you can take revenge on those who abandoned you." ”

"As long as you live, as long as you are willing to practice, even if you only have your left hand, you can still ride a horse, swing a knife the same, and when you die, you really have nothing." Looking at Ashina Sheer's eyes, Li Ang said quietly, turned around and walked out of the house, he had already said everything he had to say, and then it would be up to him to see how deep the hatred in Ashina Sheer's heart was.

Looking at the disappearing figure, Ashina Sheer's eyes gradually calmed down, and there was something chilling in the depths of his pupils. He got up from the ground with difficulty, walked to a mouthful of the cold decoction, picked it up with his left hand, and drank the bitter and astringent liquid in it.

The night was dark, and Leon stood in the courtyard, looking at the waning moon, a little distracted, and suddenly he turned to look at the pale Thule, the only surviving member of the Uighur and Tiele missions.

"You said you wouldn't go back to Tiele, you would follow me." Leon stared at those light brown eyes, his gaze was cold, like a sharp sword piercing people's hearts.

"Captain Kuhn is dead, the princess is dead, and I have nothing to do with Tiele anymore." Thule met Leon's gaze and replied quietly that he was a wolf child, and that an old hunter had adopted him. Later, the old hunter was killed by the tribe's chiefs, and if it hadn't been for Kuhn, who was the captain of the Tiele King's guard, he would have rotted in the desert.

Kuhn's kindness made him stay in Tieler, and in his eyes, whether it was King Tiele or those noble leaders. It's just some bastards, hypocritical bastards. If it weren't for Kuhn's kindness for saving his life, he would have left Tiele long ago.

Thule looked at Leon with a grim face, and his gloomy eyes suddenly lit up, and he licked his chapped lips and said, "From the first time I saw you." I know that I have found my king, the king of the wolf in my heart, so please let me follow you. ”

Thule fell to his knees and bowed his head, like a wolf in a pack bowing to the wolf king.

"Follow me?" Leon looked at Tule who was lying on the ground and muttered, and suddenly he walked up to Tulle and looked down at him, "Get up!" I hate men who kneel at every turn. ”

"Will you let me follow you?" Thule stood up, eyes fixed on Leon. Motionless. For him, Leon in front of him is the only person in this world that he feels close to. Being with him is like following the wolf king when you were a child. Make him feel like he's not alone.

"You can follow me." Leon looked at Thule and finally nodded, his voice calm, "But I won't believe you until I'm sure what you're telling me is true." ”

"I understand that in the wolf pack I used to stay in, the wolf king is just like you, and he will not easily take in foreign wolves." Thule stood beside Leon. He whispered, and there was no displeasure in his voice. On the contrary, there was some joy.

Leon glanced at Tulle, who always had a bit of a beastly aura on his body, and didn't say anything, just walked into the darkness in the distance. Thule followed closely, like a wolf guarding his own king.

"How's it going?" Pushing the door in, Li Ang looked at the tiger and leopard riders who were checking the records of entering and leaving Cloud City for nearly half a month and asked.

"Captain, in the past half month, there have been a total of sixty-seven caravans with more than 100 people entering Cloud City, but we have carefully checked their records and found nothing wrong." A tiger and leopard rider took the paperwork in his hand and walked to Leon's side.

"Don't just care about the number of people." Taking the paperwork, Li Ang flipped through it, frowned, and said, "The Turks may have broken into pieces and entered the city, and checked the ranks of merchants who have been frequently coming and going recently. ”

"Yes." Listening to Li Ang's words, the tiger and leopard riders in the house were stunned, and then re-read the records. Soon, they found the three business teams that had been in and out of the cloud frequently in the past half a month, and they looked at Li Ang with a little more admiration in their eyes.

"Let Zhichong Mansion send troops to seal down these three businesses, and invite their local bosses over by the way." Leon looked at the three firms on the paper and tapped his fingers heavily on them.

"Whoa!" After receiving the order, the tiger and leopard rode in response, and strode out of the house.

Li Ang sat in the Taishi's chair, closed his eyes slightly, and quietly recuperated. Tulle stood behind Leon with a respectful expression, not caring at all about the strange gazes of the tigers and leopards around him.

On the street in the clouds, the sound of rolling iron hooves soon sounded like thunder, and the people living near the three merchants, watching the fierce iron horsemen surrounding the whole street, were all uneasy, and they didn't know what was going on, until the soldiers with knives surrounded the three families to death, and then they settled down, thinking of the rumors during the day, they couldn't help but think of these three families who were not good people and the Turks.

"You are trespassing on people's houses, I won't go with you." In the three-family mansion, the owner of the house said almost the same thing, but the soldiers who carried the knives didn't care what kind of boss they were or which big officials in the city they knew, they just put their knives around their necks and asked, "Do you want to go?" ”

Rich people are always afraid of death, so the big bosses of the three businesses went to the post station tremblingly, escorted by soldiers with knives on their shoulders.

After Xia Yu knew the news that the bosses of the three businesses were invited to the post station, he jumped up from the bed almost immediately, changed into official uniforms, rushed straight to his stable, and went straight to the post station on his horse.

In the lobby of the post station, the three business owners who were accustomed to seeing the scene looked at the tiger and leopard riders on both sides of the row, their faces were cold, and their hands were holding the horizontal knife at their waists, and their hearts trembled, and they sat down on the chairs carefully, and their buttocks were only half sitting. They looked at the young general who seemed to be asleep sitting at the top, and looked at each other, but they did not dare to say a word.

Outside the hall, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps, Li Ang opened his squinted eyes, and the sudden light shot out of them frightened the three bosses almost jumped up, they had heard the old man say before, the general would kill if he didn't open his eyes. Cold sweat broke out on his forehead.
