At night, in a valley in the northern suburbs of Changxing City, on a rare sunny day in winter, the high hanging moon illuminates the entire valley in a silvery white.

Hua Face and Yu Rang walked on the snow step by step, stepping on the sound of "creaking".

"You're half a quarter early."

Suddenly, a hoarse voice came from the grove next to the mountain road.

The two of them were startled, and hurriedly knelt in the snow and said in unison: "See the Lord!" ”

The hoarse voice hummed softly, "Everything is done?" ”

The two glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Lord Qiqi, everything has been done, but it's a pity that Xu Rui still escaped." ”

Yu Rang pleaded guiltily and said: "This time it was the subordinates who underestimated Xu Rui, it was a certain death, but I didn't expect that life and life would give him a glimmer of life, please punish the lord." ”

The hoarse voice sneered: "This matter is that this seat looks down on Emperor Hongwei and Xu Rui Xiao'er, it has nothing to do with you, get up." ”

The two of them suddenly stood up slowly, bowed their heads respectfully, and didn't even dare to photograph the snow on their trouser legs.

"At present, the dispute between the King of Liao and the crown prince is intensifying, and there is no possibility of reconciliation.

Hua's face was stunned: "I don't know where the Lord is going?" ”

The hoarse voice said: "The prince is about to go to Northern Qi, and this time I have to go on a trip." ”

Yu Rang hurriedly said: "Lord, if you want to improve your martial arts, I'm afraid you will soon be able to advance to the martial saint, you can't ignore it!" ”

Hua Mian also said: "On the fifth day of the first month of next month, Xu Rui is about to lead the Apocalypse Guard to set off and go to the grassland to give marriage. ”

The hoarse voice said: "This time I ordered you to come here to explain these two things, at the moment, this seat is short of manpower, and if you are about to leave the advanced martial saint, it is a good fighter, you can't miss it, this seat has ordered the five ghosts of Tiansha Chess Quicksand to bring it back, and Yu let you also go to help."

As for Xu Rui, this incident was also a temporary idea, just borrowing the general trend of the prince's troops, since he let him hide, he might as well stay for a few more days.

However, the purpose of his trip to the grassland is unknown, and he must not be in peace, notify Long Tu, let him keep an eye on Xu Rui, and Wu Liji will also say hello, lest he really make any noise and ruin the prince's big thing! ”

"Subordinates obey!"

Yu Rang and Hua Mian clenched their fists at the same time to receive their lives.

Hua Mian pondered for a moment, and then said: "Lord Qiqi, the new artillery of the Apocalypse Guard is still being kept secret, and Emperor Hongwei has sent a large number of masters to guard the military factory, but so far his subordinates have not been able to obtain the manufacturing process. ”

The hoarse voice said: "The last time the artillery was wiped out, it took a lot of effort to imitate a few, and the prince said that our production line is too far behind, and we have to start from the foundation to make up for it, and there is still a lot of time, but there is no need to be too anxious about this matter." ”

Hearing this, the look in Hua's eyes relaxed, and he finally let go of all his worries, hugged his fists towards the woods and said: "Rest assured, the Lord will definitely live up to his mission." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, a gust of wind suddenly blew on the calm mountain road, and the snow swept up by the wind flew everywhere, and for a moment it was like a blizzard falling from the sky.

The wind came and went as fast as it came, but in a matter of moments it was gone, and the snow fell silently, as if neither the wind nor the blizzard had never appeared.

Hua Mian and Yu Rang's expressions tightened, and they bowed down with their hands in fists, revealing a respectful and respectful appearance, not daring to make the slightest mistake.

I don't know how long it took, but when the birds in the mountains cried again, Hua Mian breathed a sigh of relief and said, "The Lord has left." ”

Yu Rang dusted off the broken snow on his head, and said with a wry smile: "The Lord has great powers, even I, a person who is only a line away from the Martial Saint, can't see the depth at all, do you know what realm the Lord has reached?" ”

Hua Mian shook his head: "It's probably stronger than the Martial Saint......"

As he spoke, Hua Mian shook his head again: "The Martial Saint is a heavenly moat, such as you and me, who are only a line away from the Martial Saint, there are not a hundred or eighty in the world, but there are only six people who have really crossed that threshold."

People who have not advanced to the Martial Saint will never be able to imagine where the limit of the Martial Saint is, although the Lord is strong, but to say that it is stronger than the Martial Saint, I am afraid it is not true, but it must be the level of the Martial Saint. ”

Yu Rang was stunned: "I believe it when you want to say that the strength of the Lord surpasses that of the Martial Saint, but his qi is very strange, and it seems to be different from the Martial Saint." ”

Hua Yan said: "How can the Xuan of the Martial Saint be something that you and I can speculate on?" It may or may not be intentional on the part of the Lord. ”

"Yes, I've thought too much."

Yu Rang suddenly crossed a hurdle in his heart when he heard this, and said to Hua Mian: "It's here, I'm going to set off later, see you again in the future!" ”

Hua Mian nodded: "Be careful, my junior brother is very evil, don't overturn the boat in the gutter." ”

Yu Rang laughed, didn't speak, turned around and strode down the mountain.

The flower face watched him drift away, and his body suddenly jumped vertically, flying away like a bat against the canopy.

At the same time, an old man suddenly walked out of the path below the mountain and stepped onto a Xuanyuan chariot that had been waiting on the side of the road.

More than ten zhang away, the shadow maid looked at this scene with a gloomy expression, and gently asked the little Hu Dao beside her: "Do you know this person?" ”

Xiao Hu nodded solemnly: "He is the first guest Duanmu Jin under the Han Throne, as for whether he has any other identity, it is unknown." ”

"Duanmu brocade...... Han Wang ......"

The shadow maid looked at Xuanyuan who was drifting away, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

Xiao Hu said: "Do you suspect that King Han is involved with those people?" ”

The shadow maid shook her head: "I don't know if King Han is involved, but I'm afraid this Duanmu brocade is not simple, why didn't you let me go up the mountain?" ”

Xiao Hu said: "There is a very strong existence in the mountain, although you have advanced to the first-class, it is difficult for idle people to find your whereabouts, but as long as you go up the mountain, it will be exposed, your young master said that it is a secret investigation, so you don't have to make too much movement." ”

The shadow maid said: "Do you think the person in the mountain will be this Duanmu brocade?" ”

Xiao Hu said: "This person must be in the mountains, but I am not sure if he is not a person in the mountains, it seems that there is no one else in the mountains, but the qi on his body is obviously not at the level of a martial saint, and there is a big gap between Fang Cai's earth-shattering movements." ”

The shadow maid nodded: "In any case, since this person appeared by King Han's side, and King Han is friendly with King Liao, maybe the mastermind behind the scenes is King Liao." ”

Xiao Hu shook his head: "It may also be that this Duanmu Jin lurked beside the two princes, using the identity of the doorman as a cover." ”

Seeing Xuanyuan disappear into the night, the two of them said the inference in their hearts word by word, and gradually disappeared into the vast snowfield.

Meanwhile, a pantry shop in the western suburbs was still dimly lit, and Mr. Huang sat at a table wrapped in a thick mink robe.

In addition to him, there were only two tables of guests left in the shop, one of which was occupied by a man in his thirties, and the other table was Huang Zhengyuan's two guards and the subordinates who passed the message.

The three pots of tea on the table have been emptied, and now Huang Zhengyuan's stomach is full of water, and the impatience on his face has become more and more obvious.

After waiting for another pillar of incense, there was still no movement, Huang Zhengyuan beckoned to the subordinate who was passing the message, and when the subordinate came to his side, he asked in a low voice, "Did you pass the word on?" ”

The subordinate hurriedly nodded and said, "It has been transmitted, and the old dog will definitely come!" ”

"Will it definitely come? Now that the hour has passed, where is there half a figure? ”

Huang Zhengyuan was dissatisfied.

The servant opened his mouth and was about to speak, when there was a sudden small movement outside the door, and in an instant, everyone in the tea shop looked at the door.
