The convoy was not far from the small valley, and the horses returned ahead.

"There is a strange fog and fire in the valley for no reason?"

The lieutenant dismounted, took out a long telescope from a bag on the side of the horse, held it up, and looked into the distance.

Sure enough, the valley was shrouded in a white mist, and there was a faint flash of fire.

"Why did you have such a vision?"

"It's never been peaceful along the way."

The lieutenant was also depressed, and it seemed that since he took over this errand, there had not been a day when he had not been out of trouble.

What post horses were drugged, what bridges broke, what mudslides were encountered··········

From time to time, you will encounter several spies who try to infiltrate the convoy····· Previously, they were traveling in disguise as merchants.

Later, he simply stopped hiding it, and played the banner of Qincha openly, and issued official documents all the way, asking for the king's order card and holy decree, which stopped for half a month.

But after stepping on Jiangnan, the other party no longer hides it, assassins, bandits, ocean thieves, and scattered people in the rivers and lakes, it is one by one······

"Zhen family! Hum! There is a way to die! Not killing is not enough to calm the anger! ”

The lieutenant put down the bronze binoculars and carefully placed them away in a box padded with several layers of thick cotton cloth.

This is a foreign product, inlaid with polished crystal, which is worth a lot of money, even if he has a lot of money, he is only willing to buy one.

Although the warlocks who accompany the army also have spells and can look farther, those warlock masters may not be willing to waste mana for this, so it is better to use this and not ask for help.

Thinking of the warlock, the lieutenant suddenly had an idea.

Call the soldiers and say to them.

"Go and ask the warlocks who are with the army to come over and ask what the situation is!"

When the soldiers received the order, they ran to the rear.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the lieutenant ordered the horses to rest in place for a while and feed the horses water and forage.

This kind of stop-and-go is the daily routine of the march, just because the road is constantly bumpy, and we must not be cautious.

The warlock who accompanied the army soon came, and he was an old Taoist priest with gray hair, with a scruffy beard, unkempt, almost like a beggar, but fortunately, the clothes on his body were neatly groomed, and there was no peculiar smell.

When the old warlock saw the captain, he just bowed his hand disrespectfully, and said:

"Captain."

Captain Li didn't think about this warlock's attitude, obviously this kind of thing was commonplace.

At that moment, I roughly explained the abnormality in front of me.

"How, what does Zheng Gong think? Is there an ambush? ”

It is related to the life safety of the group, and it cannot be confirmed again and again.

More than 20 people died in the previous battle, which is already a great mistake, you know, this line of people has their own backgrounds, and there is no shortage of famous families, and it is a great loss to die one.

This old warlock has real skills under his hands, and he doesn't see what he does much, just releases a few small paper cranes and flies out.

Through the manipulation of the paper crane, it can play a role in detecting the enemy's situation.

Having learned the lesson of the previous ambush, Captain Li deliberately talked with the warlock of the army for a while before he got this permission.

The paper crane flew into the white mist and plunged headlong, and then the old warlock's face changed, and he exclaimed:

"Formation, this is the Xianmen formation, there are people in front of me, my paper crane is lost!"

"The paper crane can't detect the area isolated by the formation, just now my paper crane entered, maybe it has already been discovered!" ”

Then the old warlock solemnly bowed his hand to the captain and said:

"Lord Captain, the formation is dangerous, don't trespass, it's better to detour!"

Captain Li didn't make an immediate decision, just rubbed his chin and thought about it.

"Could it be for us?"

The old warlock didn't think about it, and replied categorically:

"No way!"

"The prosperity of the Zhen family is just the beginning of the founding of this dynasty, the Emperor Gaozong Shengzu accepted the daughter of the Zhen family as a concubine, so that the merchant became a relative of the emperor, only more than 60 years ago, it is impossible to arrange such an immortal family formation! This is not something that the average warlock can do! ”

Emperor Gaozong, the Holy Ancestor, was actually not called the emperor when he was alive, but only called the marquis, the ancestor of entrepreneurship, not the ancestor of the founding of the country.

The predecessors planted trees and the later people enjoyed the shade.

Today, he inherited the throne, but he was gaining momentum for three years, just like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, leveling all the princes in the world, unifying the Central Plains, and setting the foundation of the dynasty.

When the Zhen family was in Gaozong, it was just a big businessman's family at that time, and they were lucky enough to send a woman to the throne, and they did not hesitate to be a concubine.

Half a year ago, the concubine, who was over eighty-two years old, and the two concubines from the Zhen family, were enjoying the flowers in the imperial garden, when they were drenched in the rain, they all suffered from wind and cold, and the medicine was useless, so they went immediately.

The capital was dressed in vegetarian for three days.

Captain Li was born in a famous family in the capital, so he naturally knows this.

Even he knew a little bit better.

I heard that on that day, these three Zhen wives were drenched in the rain for a day and a night······

It is said that on that day, the Imperial Garden was actually closed······

It is said that the lock in the palace was half an hour earlier than usual·······

It's scary to think about it·······

In all dynasties, there are always uncontrollable palace secrets, unspeakable gossip, and all kinds of gossip that often drown out the truth.

Captain Li didn't dare to speculate, but one thing was clear, the daughter of the Zhen family was not treated today, and the Zhen family was going to fall!

"This is the path we have chosen many times······ This road is the safest and not easy to be plotted. ”

After thinking about it, he hesitated.

"However, since you want to take a detour, let's go and inform the two messengers."

The pro-soldiers ran out and quickly brought back a reply.

After receiving the reply of the chief envoy and the deputy envoy, Captain Li gave a military order.

"Detour!"

In the valley, white fog fills the air, and the firelight and electric light flicker.

Standing in the fog, riding the clouds, the young man wore long hair, and with a big sleeve, three small paper cranes fell into the palm of his hand.

The formation is isolated from the inside and outside, and the paper crane with mana loses the control of the original owner, and can only wander in vain until it loses power.

However, no matter how much the crane struggles. flapping his wings, he couldn't fly three inches into his palm.

"This is the paper crane commonly used by the Curse and Forbidden Division, the warlock of the imperial court?"

Looking out of the valley, that was where the Qincha team was, and despite the mist formed by the formation, it still couldn't block his vision.

Seeing that the convoy stopped not far away, it turned around and avoided the place.

"It's a detour, it's okay, it will take a while to finish here."

Zhou Xun looked at Gu Zhong, there was a Qimen formation that he had temporarily set up.

There are nearly 300 good players in the valley, all of whom are vigorous and experienced.

Among them, there are also some casual cultivators and warlocks, and the number is not large, only more than twenty people.
