Chapter 205: Jialing Again
A golden blade pierced the night shrouded in heaven and earth, and between the green trees and grass blades, wisps of light jumped like a naughty child, sliding down the gaps in the grass blades, brightening the green mud that had been blocked for a long time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The silver thread flying flower brocade shoes were pointed, and a seat of green clothes hurried by, leaving a few drops of crystal clear sweat.
After walking for dozens of zhang, Ma Xiu stood on the branch, looked at the surrounding forests, and did not see the figure of Li Gao, wiped the sweat beads on his forehead, and couldn't help but shake the Qiankun fan and fanned it, "After walking for so long, I haven't seen half a figure, and I don't know if Xiao Wu and they have found it, or go back to meet first." ”
Looking up at the deserted four fields again, the horse embroidered the Qiankun fan, and shuttled between the woods again like a harrier pigeon.
After walking for a few hours, seeing Liu Xi who was healing on his knees, Ma Xiu stepped on the flying leaves and fell to the ground, and he didn't care about wiping the beads of sweat, and fell down in a hurry.
On the one hand, Xiao Wu and the others who had been searching in other directions also came back, and when they saw Ma Xiu's appearance, their eyes that were eager and expectant flashed with an indelible look of worry.
"I've seen the young master."
The black-robed worship stepped forward and bowed.
"No need to be polite."
Ma Xiu waved his hand, and then lowered his voice and asked, "Didn't everyone find that Li Gao?" ”
The black-robed worship shook his head, and a hint of helplessness flashed between his eyebrows, "I don't know where he hid, no matter how much he looked, he couldn't find a trace, it seemed that he had to dig three feet into the ground to find him out." However, the subordinates and the Xiaowu brothers met unexpectedly in Xiapi City, and they had already given Li Gao's portrait to the disciples of Shanmen. ”
Frowning, Ma Xiu pinched the fan bone of the Qiankun fan with his right hand, and sighed later, now the only way to do this is to send someone to inquire, Yangqu, Xiapi and Yecheng copper plates, Li Gao naturally did not dare to go. As for other state cities, it is Tongguan City recently, and more people need to be sent to keep an eye on it, once Li Gao is discovered, it will definitely be a disaster in the future.
Secretly having a plan, Ma Xiu took a few steps forward, and pointed to Liu Xi, who was healing with Tian Xun'er, who closed his eyes and healed, and the latter shook his head with worried eyebrows.
There was no clue about finding Li Gao, and everyone didn't know what to do, so they stayed by Liu Xi's side and waited for him to heal before making plans.
Caixia chases the sun and sets in the west mountains, and the lonely bird returns the forest with tired wings.
It wasn't until the night came as scheduled that Liu Xi let out a breath of turbidity, accepted the auxiliary tips, and slowly opened his eyes.
But before she got up, Xiao Ling'er had already taken the lead in rushing forward, getting into Liu Xi's arms, and her little hands kept taking out all kinds of ginseng and zhi spirit fruits from her pocket, which she found from the wilderness and forests, perhaps knowing that Liu Xi was injured and needed to recuperate, so she was not willing to eat any of them, and left them all for Liu Xi.
Seeing that Xiao Ling'er was so cute, Liu Xi couldn't help pinching her little face carved with pink jade, and put those spirit fruits back into the blue and white embroidered cloth pocket that Wu Shuang'er made for her, "Ling'er is good, I'm not hungry, you can keep these and eat them slowly." ”
Touching Xiao Ling'er's delicate face again, Liu Xi and Ma Xiu, who were full of concern, said, "I'm fine, but I still need to recuperate for a few days." ”
Hearing this, a stone fell in everyone's hearts, Tian Xun'er's willow eyebrows finally stretched, and the delicate eyebrows once again revealed the tranquil and lovely color of the past.
"By the way, have you ever found Li Gao?"
Ma Xiu shook the folding fan a few times in a depressed manner, "We searched in four directions and traveled dozens of miles, but we didn't see him, and I don't know where to hide." ”
Didn't find it?
Liu Xi bowed his head and was silent, not to mention that Tian Xun'er was a master of the cave, even if it was the three of Ma Xiu, they also had the realm of a grandmaster, they could perceive the mystery of heaven and earth, and they could perceive the flying flowers and fallen leaves within a radius of a hundred zhang, and even they didn't find Li Gao, Liu Xi could only sigh that this guy had learned a good hiding technique.
In this situation, Liu Xi understood that everyone had tried their best, and the best solution was to send more people to keep an eye on it, with the strength of the soldiers and miscellaneous families, it should not be difficult to find Li Gao's whereabouts.
Thinking of this, Liu Xi smiled and comforted Ma Xiu and the others, looked around, saw that the corpses of Zhanfu and the others were gone, and knew that they had been dealt with, so he led the group to leave in the night, after all, it was enough to sleep in the open with their cultivation.
And at this moment, Liu Xi's identity is inconvenient, and it is the best choice to rush to the road while the people are sparsely populated at night.
When Liu Xi and the others arrived at Tongguan, gray clouds had already appeared in the sky, accompanied by the morning breeze, spreading more and more, gradually covering the night that occupied the sky.
The people of Tongguan City Gate appeared one after another, picking firewood and catching up with cars, wanting to enter the city as soon as possible to do business and earn money to support their families.
Without alarming outsiders, Liu Xi and the others found a place without soldiers to cross the city, quietly sneaked into the city, and found a small inn that had just opened its doors to make a living.
After waiting for three days in Tongguan City, Li Gao's whereabouts were never found, but the canyon left by Liu Xi and Zhan Fu that day was more and more mysterious, and it was even said that it was done by ghosts and gods.
Although it is just a pastime for the people before and after tea, it will always be noticed by people who have a heart that Zhanfu and others disappeared for no reason, and more importantly, Liu Xi was taken away by the prisoner car in front of the entire Yangqu City that day, and he should have arrived in Tongguan when he counted the time.
No longer stayed, Liu Xi asked Ma Xiu to find a prisoner car to secretly transport out of the city, and when the night ended, Liu Xi sat in the prisoner car with a cloak and was escorted into Tongguan City again by the ragged black robe.
In Tongguan City, when the restaurant and tea shop were full, I saw Liu Xi sitting in the prisoner car, which was immediately quite sensational, and he threw down the bowls and chopsticks and rushed out to see what was going on.
Sitting in the prisoner car, looking at the more and more crowds, pointing and pointing and making a gesture of exchanging ears, which was mixed with contempt, Liu Xi couldn't help but sigh lightly in his heart.
From ancient times to the present, watching the excitement is the most lacking of people. Right or wrong, if you get into the prison car, you are a heinous sinner in their eyes.
Everyone in the world is pathetic, and most of the time they live in self-righteous seeing.
Close your eyes and ignore the sound of strife in your ears, no one in the entire Tongguan City cares about him, a Qincha who once fought to the death to protect the northern Xinjiang, even if the Tongguan guards who had met at the beginning disappeared, naturally needless to say that the county guards of Tongguan came to send them on a ride.
Seeking good fortune and avoiding misfortune is most vividly displayed in officialdom.
This is also very good, Liu Xi's trip was not delayed at all, and he soon got out of Tongguan, went straight all the way, and headed for Jialing City.
With a black robe to take care of, coupled with the slow recovery of his injuries, Liu Xi couldn't bear the hardships. As for Ma Xiu and the others, they followed the prisoner car far away, and walked towards Jialing very carefully.
Finally, after running for more than a month, when I arrived in Jialing, it was the season when the spring breeze was full of flowers, and as far as the eye could see, the flowers and the colorful butterflies were printed, and the Luo shirt and the jade face were colorful, so a fairy land that made people forget to return.
The crowd is bustling, and the things are all in place, this scene reminds Liu Xi of Yangqu City, right now, Yangqu City should also be open, right?
The prisoner car traveled through several streets in the city, and the black-robed worshipper suddenly stopped the car, only because there were a few people in front of him blocking the place.
These people are dressed in robes or shirts, no different from ordinary people, but they are all introverted in their eyes, and their breath is deep and even, needless to say that Liu Xi also understands that they are people from the worship courtyard.
"Lord Deacon's fate in the Northland has something to do with him?"
Their people, a white-shirted old man, said sharply, although he was talking to the black-robed worship, but his eyes were staring at Liu Xi like sharp blades.
Obviously, in the eyes of these people, Liu Xi has an inseparable relationship with Zhanfu's death.
The black-robed worship jumped out of the carriage and bent down to salute with the visitors, all of whom were worshiped at the level of the word "mountain" in the lower courtyard, and their status was at the level of the word "river".
After the salute was finished, the black-robed worshipper said in a hoarse voice, "After the Lord of the Deacon arrived in the North, he investigated the matter of 'Guangwu' in many ways, but he did not have a clue, but he secretly suspected that it was related to the failure of the Zhenbei envoy to rescue, but he met Liu Han's master on the way, and the Lord of the Deacon ordered his subordinates to escort the Zhenbei envoy first, and he and the rest of the people faced Liu Han's master, but ......"
Although the black-robed worshipper is a miscellaneous master, at this moment, he must show what he should do as an enshriner, otherwise, it will only arouse suspicion.
The white-shirted old man stretched out his hand to stop the black-robed offering that was about to continue speaking, "Since the Lord of the Deacon has doubts about this person, it seems that he has nothing to do with this matter, and he will be brought back to the Enshrinement House for strict interrogation!" ”
At this moment, a deafening roar came from a distance, and in an instant, around the corner, a column of black-armored soldiers galloped towards them on tall horses, and the red cloaks fluttering in the wind behind them were as bright as blood.
Seeing this outfit, Liu Xi's old acquaintance, Xiong Gang, came to mind.
Naturally, the person who came was the elite of the Tang Emperor, 'Feijia'.
When he arrived in front of the prisoner car, the leading square-faced man stared at Liu Xi and looked at him carefully, "Is it Liu Xi, the envoy from Zhenbei, who is in the prisoner car?" ”
Liu Xi replied, "Exactly." ”
The square-faced man took out a golden token entwined by a flying dragon from his arms, "There is a decree on the saint, and the north of the town will make Liu Xi quickly enter the palace to face the saint!" ”
As soon as the words fell, the white-shirted old man walked in front of the square-faced man with an arrow step, "This person has a lot to do with the cause of death of Lord Zhanfu of my worship institute. ”
"Bold!"
The square-faced man glared angrily under his thick eyebrows, and the long sword in his hand rang out of its sheath with a loud sound, pointing at the white-shirted old man, and immediately the rest of the people behind him drew their swords one after another.
The sword is like autumn water, and the autumn water is rippling in the eyes of everyone like a wave.
With a hint of disdain flashing in his eyes, the white-shirted old man stretched out his hand to stop the offering that was about to step forward, and stepped on the thick masonry road, and suddenly the masonry that had been crushed by countless wheels without the slightest damage cracked into countless cracks.
In the prisoner car, Liu Xi closed his eyes and ignored the tense scene in front of him, along the way, he was thinking about how to deal with it after entering Beijing, but he never had a clue, only one step at a time.
At the moment, Liu Xi didn't know Emperor Tang's attitude, but the people in the worship house were already hostile to him, so in his heart, he still wanted to enter the palace to find out Emperor Tang's intentions first.
Just when the worship courtyard and Feijia were about to exchange hands, a voice sounded in everyone's ears from far and near, "There is an order from the Yanzhi Academy, no trouble, and the envoy from the north of the town will enter the palace with the 'Feijia'." ”
When this sound fell, the old man in the white shirt hurriedly dispersed his aura, although there was unwillingness in his eyes, he didn't dare to make another move, and he flicked his sleeves angrily and led people away.
Looking at the back of the white-shirted old man and his party, the square-faced man's thick eyebrows showed a hint of imperceptible pride, and then waved his hand, "Let's go!" ”
With that, he turned and rode away, and a soldier dismounted and followed closely behind in a prisoner's cart.
Seeing that the prisoner car slowly disappeared, a trace of anxiety flashed in the eyes of the black-robed worshipper who stayed in place, and he was about to go to find Ma Xiu to report the matter, when the previous ethereal voice came from his ears again, "Yan Zhiyuan beckons you to meet." ”
