Chapter 249: The North Wind Howls, the Waves Crash
After the five thousand elite soldiers set off, the entire Yuxiao Pass fell into calm again.
Wen Zeyu ordered the city gate to be sealed and no one was allowed to leave the city, this was to prevent spies from sending news out. For the sake of safety, this action is not a trivial matter, and Zeyu does not dare to be sloppy in the slightest.
"After all, it has become the world of young people, let you toss! I hope you kid won't let me down, and don't let Brother Ximen down......" Ask Zeyu stood alone on the city wall, looking at the direction of the distant Nancheng, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but outline a thought-provoking arc.
The north wind howled, blowing the hearts of many people in the North Abyss Country.
The waves crashed and the roar shook the heavens and the earth.
When the iron rider shoots out his spear, it will surely take the lives of many people and create many souls.
For thousands of years, those who have achieved great things have climbed up the ladder of countless corpses. But Xu Muchuan will not step on the lives of innocent people, he just wants to inherit the will left by Ximenxiong, the king of Zhenyuan, and protect Beiyuan.
Ying Yuan Restaurant
Wen Ruofei had been away from here for about three days, and Ran Hong, who was accompanying the guard general, was puzzled, and was extremely curious about where Wen Ruofei, who was reluctant to leave Xu Muchuan, had gone.
Whenever Ran Hong asked Xu Muchuan about Wen Ruofei's whereabouts, Xu Muchuan just smiled faintly and said, "Brother Wen has his own affairs to deal with, General Ran doesn't have to worry." ”
Every time he looked at Xu Muchuan's ambiguous answer, Ran Hong felt a little wrong in his heart, but as a subordinate, Ran Hong couldn't continue to ask, just thinking about it in his heart.
For some reason, the temperature in the southern city not only did not rise because of the end of spring, but also became more and more biting cold.
The four Zhizhou were tortured and did not look like adults, Xu Muchuan took the time to go to the prison city to take a look in the past few days, Liang Wenrong and the other four Zhizhou still have the makeup of the past, they all look like prisoners who are about to die.
In this regard, Xu Muchuan did not have half sympathy, but just glanced at it indifferently. Instead, Xu Muchuan turned around and left the cell.
After hearing that Ruofei left, Fu Hengsheng was more cautious than before, whether it was Xu Muchuan's diet and clothing, he had to carefully check it before he dared to let Xu Muchuan eat and wear it himself.
In the past few nights, Xu Muchuan couldn't sleep peacefully at all. His mind was full of human trafficking cases, and that fluttering and immortal shadow.
Looking down at the small sandalwood box quietly placed on the table, Xu Muchuan closed his eyes and stretched out his hands to open the box.
A white jade hairpin broken in two came into Xu Muchuan's eyes, Xu Muchuan's eyes flashed with a touch of nostalgia and sadness, and his right hand trembled slightly to pick up the two hairpins, just quietly looking at the hairpin that had no luster.
I don't know how long later, the moonlight shone directly into the room through the window, shining on the two white jade hairpins held by Xu Muchuan in his hands. The white jade hairpin seemed to shimmer in the moonlight, and seemed to return to its original color.
"Alas!" The endless thoughts only turned into a long sigh.
Then, he gently put the two pieces of white jade hairpin into the small sandalwood box, and held the box tightly to his chest.
Qing is intentional, and Jun is also pitiful, but it is a pity that the roulette wheel of fate cannot let them touch together. After all, this relationship just died in the mud in the rain.
The pain often needs to be borne by the living, and the things Xu Muchuan is carrying on his shoulders are getting heavier and heavier, but he can't appeal for an outlet, he can only maintain a high-minded and indifferent attitude.
"There are still ten days, whether it will be successful or not, it depends on yours." This battle can only be won, not defeated. Winning means that Xu Muchuan can have better capital to go on; If he loses, it means that Xu Muchuan will fall off the cliff.
……………
Beiyuan Kingdom, which seems to be divided into two countries by the same Shu, is actually devoured by termites, and it may be crumbling at any time.
The civil officials withered, and the court was mostly a dull official. Jun Yuyi, who is the Great Emperor of Beiyuan, is also helpless in his heart, treating Xu Muchuan as an important chess piece in the game.
If there is a choice, Jun Yuyi doesn't want to put his good fortune on Xu Muchuan's body. But Jun Yuyi knew that his body couldn't afford to consume it, and if he bothered to deal with these things, he would definitely not be able to support it for long.
Now Jun Yuyi, his body is almost hollowed out, and there is no blood. If it weren't for the fact that there were a large number of treasure medicines to prolong his life, he Jun Yuyi would have returned to the loess long ago.
Therefore, Jun Yuyi can't stand the toss. can only start this game of chess around Xu Muchuan.
Ten teams of elite soldiers moved separately, all dressed up and shedding their armor.
Ten cities have been linked to human trafficking, which is no small matter. There are only more than 30 cities in the entire Beiyuan Kingdom, and a full third of the cities are involved, which cannot but shake people's hearts.
Xu Muchuan can imagine what kind of shock it will cause if this matter is exposed.
The emperor of Kyushu has always won the hearts of the people in order to win the world. Now, the officials of the Beiyuan Kingdom are infinitely squandering the people's trust in the Beiyuan Emperor and the government. If he doesn't stop it and give an explanation to the people, Xu Muchuan believes that if he doesn't wait for Shu to leave the two countries' armies to press the border, the Beiyuan Kingdom will die.
Therefore, Xu Muchuan had no choice but to face the difficulties.
If you don't succeed, you will succeed.
No matter what the outcome is, at least Xu Muchuan has a clear conscience, and he has done his duty.
Under the leadership of ten generals, ten elite teams crossed the overlapping mountains and mountains, crossed one river after another, and quickly moved towards the cities of their respective targets.
Along the way, because they have to avoid the eyes of the world and hide their tracks, they can only walk the inaccessible mountain roads. Therefore, they don't know how many horses have died of exhaustion, and they don't know how many mountain trails they have walked out.
The edge is exposed, and the five thousand elite soldiers are ready to unsheath them at any time like sharp swords, just waiting for the destination to arrive, and the spear can be stained with blood at the first order.
Occasionally, ten elite soldiers would walk on the mountain roads and encounter bandits who wanted to rob them. I have to say that those mountain bandits are also tired of being crooked, and it is not good to rob anyone, but they want to rob and rob the soldiers guarding the frontier.
Therefore, the elite soldiers easily dealt with many mountain bandits on the mountain, and it did not affect the speed of their travel.
The time of ten days is not fast, slow or not.
All the elite troops have quietly infiltrated the city, only waiting for the day written on the note to come in two days. Then it will be time for the blood to shine and the butcher's knife to appear.
Xu Muchuan, who was in Yingyuan Restaurant, saw that the days were getting closer and closer, and his heart was extremely nervous. The palms of his hands were still sweating from time to time, as if expressing Xu Muchuan's signs of restlessness.
