Chapter 115: The Imperial Expedition

The two rode away on the black tiger, and Gu Du ordered: "Go quickly." ”

Dongfang Bin and Gu Du hurried together and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Gu Du replied: "The Black Tiger breaks through, the local garrison will definitely report, the nearest county will only need one day to report to the Imperial City, even if the Spirit Emperor sends someone to the Black Wood Forest to verify first, it will only take one day, and it will only take two days for six hundred miles to rush to Zhenbei Pass, and we only have four days, if we don't stop day and night, we may be able to get out before the mountain is closed." ”

Dongfang Bin was stunned and asked, "Then why don't you let them wait for two days before leaving?" ”

Gu Du replied: "If I tell the truth, Lixia will not accompany the county lord back, besides, I am afraid that there will be changes, the black tiger is more important than the psychic wood, so I don't want it if it's a big deal, and I will come to get it later." ”

As Gu Du expected, the Spirit Emperor received a report the next day, saying that two young girls were riding a black tiger to the north.

The Spirit Emperor was shocked and personally went to the Black Wood Forest to investigate.

The black tiger is a rare beast of the spirit country, named Mo Xuan, it is brought back from the overseas fairy realm, raised in the black wood forest, this beast only recognizes the royal bloodline, every time you want to take a hao pen, you have to go to the spirit emperor in person.

When they arrived at the Black Wood Forest, the Spirit Emperor called out loudly: "Mo Xuan...... Mo Xuan......"

Calling all the way, all the way to Lingquan, when he arrived at Lingquan, he saw four newly cut psychic tree stumps, and the Linghuang said angrily: "Quickly spread my oracle, order Zhenbei Pass to close the mountain, be sure to intercept the psychic wood!" ”

A palace guard answered the call, ran out of the black woods, mounted his horse and went straight to the nearest military post.

At dusk, Gu Du and the others were resting their horses on the side of the road, when they suddenly heard the sound of hooves, and a flying horse ran in front of them, leaving the dust.

Gu Duwei frowned and said, "This must be a six-hundred-mile rush to order the closure of the mountain, it is so fast, we can't get out." ”

Everyone looked at Gu Du, Gu Du pondered for a moment, and said, "Don't rush, stay in the hotel at night, sleep well, and turn to Rizhao Guan tomorrow." ”

Feng Jiu said: "The mountain road in Rizhao Pass is extremely rugged and dangerous. ”

Gu Du said: "It's better than being surrounded and suppressed by a large army, even if we don't bring a psychic wood and are surrounded by a large army, it will be difficult for us to get out." ”

After a pause, Gu Du said again: "Feng Jiu, you still have to find someone to cut the psychic wood into a one-foot-thick circle." ”

Feng Jiu responded: "Yes." ”

Each person carries a piece, which is easier to walk than to carry.

The Linghuang has not returned to the palace, so he urgently summoned the three divisions to meet him, the first seat of the three divisions waited in the inner hall for more than half an hour, the Linghuang returned to the palace, came in and asked for tea, Huang Zhen hurriedly brought the tea, the Linghuang took it and drank it, Huang Zhen exclaimed: "The emperor is ......"

Before he finished speaking, the Spirit Emperor squirted out the hot tea, and then slammed the tea bowl to the ground, angrily scolding: "Get warm water!" ”

Huang Zhen hurriedly went to get a cup of warm water, and the Spirit Emperor took it and drank it all, and then reprimanded: "Go down!" ”

Huang Zhen withdrew, and the Spirit Emperor said with a blue face: "I want to drive the expedition in person." ”

Chu Huaizhong and Shangguan Mingfeng were shocked, and Zhong Qi asked, "Your Majesty, has Mo Xuan really been taken away?" ”

The Spirit Emperor gritted his teeth and replied, "Yes, I want to find Mo Xuan back!" ”

Chu Huaizhong and Shangguan Mingfeng both looked at Zhong Qi with puzzled eyes, and Zhong Qi explained: "Mo Xuan is a rare beast in our country, that is, the black tiger in the black wood forest, this beast only recognizes the royal bloodline. ”

Chu Huaizhong and Shangguan Mingfeng glanced at each other, neither of them spoke, they didn't know the importance of Mo Xuan, so they didn't know what to say.

Zhong Qi said: "Your Majesty, if it is necessary to go on an expedition, it must be decided in a battle, otherwise you will only lose your soldiers and lose your money." ”

Emperor Ling said: "Transfer 30,000 defenders to Beiguan, combine 150,000 troops, and set out in three days." Except for those who guard the border gates, the Imperial Soul Division all go with the army. ”

Chu Huaizhong and Shangguan Mingfeng exclaimed at the same time: "The emperor thinks twice!" ”

This is to fight hard with Zeguo, is this a hasty decision? Just for a rare beast?

The Spirit Emperor said, "Zhong Qi, you explain to the two of them. ”

"Yes." Zhong Qi agreed, and said: "Two adults, Mo Xuan is not only a symbol of imperial power, but also the lifeblood of the Imperial Soul Division. ”

"In addition, Zeguo can get Mo Xuan, one of them can sign a contract document, and the strength of the soul army will suddenly increase, and the other can use Mo Xuan to confuse people's hearts and pretend to be orthodox. Therefore, Mo Xuan must be recovered, and if he can't be found, he must also be killed, so as to prevent future troubles. ”

The Spirit Emperor added: "Someone cut down four psychic trees, and must have taken the spiritual spring water, if I expected it to be good, it must be that Lixia who remembered the contents of the soul book and brought people to the Black Wood Forest." ”

Chu Huaizhong and Shangguan Mingfeng didn't speak, but both of them had a question in their hearts, since Mo Xuan only recognized the royal bloodline, why was he taken away?

Dongfang Xia Lan and Li Xia returned to Zeguo in only four days, and when the black tiger ran to the camp gate, the guards were so frightened that they shouted in unison, but when they saw Li Xia and Dongfang Xia Lan on the tiger's back, the cheers turned into cheers again.

Ma Chongren received the report and greeted the door, but he didn't see the black tiger, Dongfang Xia Lan said proudly: "The black tiger is hunting." ”

Lixia said: "General, my senior brother asks you to send someone to drive the carriage to meet them ten miles east of Lancheng. ”

Ma Chongren responded: "Okay, I'll send someone there immediately." ”

Gu Du and others crossed the city and passed the card, and within two days, they found that the people were in a panic and were competing to marry a daughter.

Dongfang Bin asked, "What's the matter?" ”

Gu Du replied: "The people are fighting for marriage, there will be war, the county lord has taken away the black tiger, I am afraid that the spirit country will raise an expedition." ”

Dongfang Bin was stunned and said, "Won't it?" ”

Gu Du replied, "Yes." If I were the Spirit Emperor, I would definitely take the royal expedition in person, and even if I couldn't find the black tiger, I would kill it to avoid future troubles. ”

Dongfang Bin frowned and asked, "Imperial Driver?" ”

Gu Du replied: "Yes, you and the county lord are both royal blood, don't you think that the black tiger looks like an elder coaxing a child to the county lord?" So I guess that since the black tiger is a spirit animal, maybe it only recognizes the royal bloodline, if the spirit emperor does not personally recruit, how can he find the black tiger? ”

"Oh!" Dongfang Bin was stunned, thought about it and asked, "Then what should I do?" ”

Gu Du replied: "Fight to the death." ”

After two days of rushing into the mountain, Gu Du said to Feng Jiu: "You stay and lead the team, and I will go back with Dongfang Bin first." ”

Feng Jiu responded: "Yes." ”

The two crossed the mountains and rushed to ten miles east of Lancheng, and Li Xia was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" Others? ”

Gu Du replied: "The Spirit Kingdom is going on an expedition, we have to go back quickly, you and the county lord ride the black tiger and hurry back to report the news, so that they can prepare to meet the enemy, and ......"

"Alright." Li Xia interrupted Gu Du and said, "Don't let me pass the word, you and Xia Lan ride the black tiger back, and I will arrive after riding a horse." ”
