After dusk, night falls.

On a spacious mountain road under the moonlight, a mighty long queue is like a night dragon in the deep mountains, swimming among the mountains.

There are more than 700 people from the 12 major sects.

And this originally silent mountain forest has also become noisy because of the footsteps of more than 700 people.

Along the way, there were many young disciples in the team, who were still fighting with high morale and gesturing how to kill the enemy, as if they didn't realize how dangerous this decisive battle would bring to them.

Shi Wuwei walked at the forefront of the team, followed Wang Zhengnan and moved forward.

Along the way, he rarely spoke, and he was not in the mood to enjoy the scenery on both sides of the mountain road along the way.

The deeper he went into the mountains and forests, the closer he got to his destination, the more restless and restless his heart became.

He had a hunch that something seemed to be waiting for him in the town not far away......

And Su Wushi, who is perverse and talkative on weekdays, surprisingly didn't talk much today.

From his solemn eyes, it was not difficult to find that his solemnity seemed to be for the disciples of the Divine Shadow Sect.

……………

Time passed, and after walking a large section of the mountain road, which was relatively flat, a steep slope up appeared at the front of the team.

The steep slope is not very steep, but this uphill road is very long.

Due to the full moon tonight, it is exceptionally bright, and it appears at the top of the slope.

Therefore, at this glance, it seems that you are on a heavenly road leading to the bright moon.

And Shi Wuwei has already heard that after crossing this slope, Nanyang Town is in sight.

The footsteps of the crowd did not stop, and they walked up this slope unhurriedly, and did not slow down because of the impending danger.

A moment later, a disciple in the middle of the group, who was in the middle of the hillside, saw that the person in front of him suddenly stopped, and said suspiciously, "Why don't you leave?" ”。

Due to the stop of the people in front of them, the entire long line has come to a standstill, standing in place.

In addition, they couldn't look at the situation in front of the team, and naturally there were doubts in their hearts.

At the front of the team, Wang Zhengnan had already crossed the hillside and came to a flat and wide yellow mud land on the top of the mountain.

On the left side of the mud floor, there is still a small hill that rises high. But on the right side of the dirt floor, there is a complete row of black wooden houses.

Directly above the gate of the wooden house, the plaque with the word "post station" written on it is crooked, but at least it can barely tell the passers-by that this is a place for passers-by, food and lodging, or changing horses.

The reason why Wang Zhengnan stopped was not because of this post station. It's because there is already a figure in front of you.

There were about twenty figures, and not far in front of him, they formed a wild goose array.

He didn't make a sound, and he didn't make a vigilant gesture, because these people didn't seem to have the intention of assassinating them.

These more than 20 people, all wearing white clothes and white scarves, each holding a red tassel gun, the leader of the person, the gun in his hand, is bright silver.

In fact, when Wang Zhengnan saw this silver gun for the first time, he had already discovered the identities of these people.

In June of the fourth year of Yongle, Jinyi Wei exterminated the 'Lingnan Gun Sect', and no one survived in the sect, only the sect master Lu Chonger and a few disciples fled.

The reason why the night suit is black is because it is easy to hide in the night, and it is mostly used for assassination or to listen to the enemy.

And the fact that these people dare to wear white clothes in the dark of night is enough to explain their purpose.

The person at the head has a sallow complexion, sharp edges and corners, and is extremely resolute. Although he was missing his left eye, his only remaining right eye was exuding a strong fighting spirit.

Behind him, there were only twenty-one people.

In front of him, there were hundreds of people.

But he was heavy and dared to fight this battle for the southerners, so he had no fear in his heart.

He saw Wang Zhengnan's desire to speak again, but he ignored it.

Instead, he lifted the silver spear in his hand and pointed the tail of the spear heavily on the yellow earth under his feet.

After the sound of 'bang', his low cheer also floated throughout the mountains and forests.

"Where is the Five Stick Gate! Where is Sun Changxing! Come out and die! ”。

………

After a while, feeling the crowd behind him, Shi Wuwei frowned, and bypassed a path for the people who were coming.

He didn't understand why these more than 20 people wanted to intercept them here openly, and why they didn't gather manpower to kill themselves from the forest by surprise.

You must know that if the other party only has these twenty-one people, then with the strength of the twelve major sects, they can be killed in less than a cup of tea.

He looked at Sun Changxing, who was wearing a black felt hat and a mustache at the corner of his mouth, and walked out of the team with a solemn face.

He also saw Xu Tai and more than fifty disciples of the Five Stick Sect, and followed him with a fierce look.

These people ignored his puzzled eyes, but bypassed Wang Zhengnan in front of them and walked straight to the more than twenty people.

Sun Changxing was the first to stop, and Lu Chong'er, led by the enemy, was only ten steps away.

He looked at the other party's blinded eye, and a trace of unbearability flashed in his heart.

He took a deep breath before reaching behind him, pulling out the swarthy Zhenshan Treasure Stick and shouting in a deep voice.

"Xu Tai and twenty disciples are out of the ranks! The rest of the disciples are not allowed to come forward, and those who violate this order will be expelled from the sect! ”。

His eyes were still staring at Lu Chong'er in front of him, and he didn't care at all about his remarks, which was what shock it brought to the disciples in the back.

Mo said that the rest of the young disciples, even Xu Tai, who was the eldest disciple, were also full of doubts about the master's remarks.

He didn't understand why the master was saying this.

When Sun Changxing saw the commotion behind him, he shouted in a deep voice again, "Xu Tai and twenty disciples are out of line!" The rest of the disciples obeyed the orders of the alliance leader, and those who violated the order were punished for the crime of killing the teacher! ”。

The crime of killing teachers is the number one crime in the rivers and lakes. If one person kills the teacher, everyone will be punished by the rivers and lakes.

And after seeing the number of the other party clearly, after hearing the master's harsh reprimand, Xu Tai finally understood the master's deep meaning.

He knew that even now, his master still had to act in the way of the rivers and lakes.

Vaguely, he also seemed to have a hint of enlightenment.

He has realized that the master is teaching this righteousness to their generation.

"All the junior brothers listen to the order! Twenty people were left, and the rest of the disciples entered the town with the alliance leader!! ”。 Xu Tai shouted in condensation.

He came to the master's side and stood in place, with no fear on his face.

And the remaining fifty or so disciples of the Five Stick Sect, seeing that the master and brother were already so decisive, had to obey the order and divided into two groups.

Twenty people stepped forward, and the remaining thirty or so reluctantly returned to the team.

When Sun Changxing saw that his disciples were present, he said in a deep voice, "Senior Brother Wang, it is enough for me to be here, and you go to deal with Zuo Wuchang!" ”。

Wang Zhengnan was slightly shocked, and from his inexplicable emotions, he was relieved.

His brows tightened again, and he took the lead in stepping forward, glancing at this old friend who had known him for most of his life, and just said "take care".

Shi Wuwei unconsciously followed.

His mind at the moment was also in a trance.

He didn't know how to describe his feelings.

He only knew that Senior Brother Wang's eyes when he looked at Sun Changxing at the end, and the word 'take care' he said, seemed to have a strong sense of parting.

He unconsciously turned his face and looked at Xu Tai, who was holding a stick, and was standing behind his master with a solemn face.

He suddenly realized that this person, who had been despised by him, was a little different today.

It's a change in personality, and it's a change in the realm.

His eyes rolled slightly, and he muttered in his heart.

"Is it ..... Is this the real Jianghu? ”
