Fluttershy and Liu Cheng are led by Song Hongyan to walk through the twists and turns of the checkpoint, but the Mongol soldiers are well-trained and neatly groomed, much to Liu Cheng's surprise.

His original impression was that the Mongol cavalry was a scattered sand, coming and going at a moment's notice, and the battle depended on bravery and the speed of the cavalry. But the Mongols in the city of Fengzhou seem to know the art of war, because the checkpoints are all set up in formation, maybe there are masters to guide them.

Bypassing many camps, I finally came to the big tent where Gao Qisheng was.

As soon as I entered the tent, I saw a Taoist chief grinning and shouting: "Ouch, tap and tap, I'm afraid this arrow has a hook, slow down, if only some oil was dropped first." ”

Liu Cheng took a look, isn't this the old Hu Dao. "Why is Brother Hu here. Liu Cheng stepped forward and bowed his hand.

"Yo, that's not the ..... What kind of brother, what's it called? Hu Lao wanted to call the official, but he thought that it was wrong to shout this, so he stopped again.

"In Xia Liu Cheng, he is in business, do you remember having a meeting with Brother Hu?" Liu Cheng also reacted, and hurriedly revealed his identity first.

"Ah, yes, Brother Liu, why did you get to this ghost place too?. Boss Hu held his shoulders and said painfully.

"It's hard to put into words, it's not about eating for a while. What, you're injured?" Liu Cheng said.

"This bow and arrow don't have eyes, but fortunately I used the art of mind to deflect the arrow to the right, otherwise it would have stabbed me in the chest. ”

"You just blow it, and you can also think of it, why don't you shoot you with an arrow? A gray-haired old man next to him said, it was Hu Lao Dao's senior brother.

"Senior brother, it's not right for you to say that, I didn't look back at you before I got hit by the arrow, if I kept running forward, the arrow should have hit my back, how could it hit the front. When Hu Laodao heard this, he immediately retorted.

"If you run slower, you probably won't get hit. ”

Liu Cheng also arched his hand to Hu Laodao's senior brother, "I haven't seen you for many days, but the Taoist is good." The chief nodded to him, "For a while, I won't be able to die." "It seems that the two senior brothers don't fight for a day, they are afraid that their mouths will stick, and this mouth is really unmatched in the world.

Liu Cheng didn't talk to them anymore, and went to Gao Qisheng with Fluttershy, only to see that he was covered in sweat, his lips were cyanosis, and he was wounded by a firearm in the back, if it wasn't for the shoulder blades blocking it, I'm afraid it would have been pierced.

Gao Qisheng gritted his teeth because he had a son, until he insisted on reaching Fengzhou City, and now he felt that he had no strength and could barely speak.

"I'm the Immortal Trustee to take care of you, and I'm afraid I can't heal your injuries at the moment, what do you have to say?" Fluttershy says, pulling out a small scroll with three triangles printed on it, like three peaks. "This is a mark left by the immortals, saying that when you see it, you will recognize it. ”

Gao Qisheng smiled a little, and he laboriously pointed to his arms, "Another wave, I don't know how capable my father is? It seems that he really hasn't bragged." If I hadn't been here to make a living, I wouldn't have ended up like this, and all living beings would have suffered a miserable life. ”

Liu Cheng took out a small oilcloth bag from Gao Qisheng's arms, opened it, and saw a copper seal inside, and the pattern under the seal was similar to the one on Fluttershy's scroll.

"Now I'm just not worried about Xiao Rui, I hope you can take good care of him. Gao Qisheng looked at his son Gao Rui and said with difficulty.

"Okay, we'll take good care of him. Fluttershy says with tears in her eyes.

Before night, Gao Qisheng was out of breath and was cremated along with the other two White Lotus disciples who were seriously injured and died.

Gao Rui was not yet twelve years old, and now he was the only one left in the family, how could he not be sad and cry until he turned his back.

Fluttershy gives him a pill, and Gao Rui wakes up crying for a while before falling asleep.

In the evening, Song Hongyan brought several leaders of the White Lotus Sect to visit them, although Gao Qisheng was not a disciple of the White Lotus Sect, but he also received a pension, they handed over two taels of silver to Gao Rui, and then ordered a banquet to entertain, which was also to give Song Hongyan a face.

From the chat, Liu Cheng learned that Altan Khan (Altan Khan) was not in Fengzhou, was training in the desert, and the Great Khan was actually unwilling to meet with the Ming Dynasty. The Great Khan has always wanted to exchange horse markets with the Daimyo, friendly trade, and the Ming court was stubborn, so he started a war with it, and under force, the horse market was opened this year, and the Great Khan brought many good horses to go, and also told his subordinates not to make trouble and to trade seriously. But I don't know why? The horse market was open for a few days and then it was no longer open. In order to keep Datong, Qiu Luan, the Marquis of Xianning, of Datong, bribed the Great Khan with a lot of money last year, so that the Mongol attacking army avoided Datong's eastward direction to Jizhen and smashed the Beijing Division.

When Liu Cheng heard this, this is a major secret, why did he easily leak it in front of us people, whether it was intentional or unintentional.

Zhao Hongyuan and Song Hongyan wanted to go back to the Peach Blossom Realm with Fluttershy, but after learning that the Peach Blossom Realm had been in trouble, they decided to stay in Fengzhou, after all, they were used to the White Lotus Sect and the Mongols here.

Early the next morning, Song Hongyan sends two fast horses to Liu Cheng and Fluttershy, telling them that when they get to the border, the horses will come back on their own, and that there is no need to worry, and that taking care of Gao Rui is the key.

They seem to be very superstitious, thinking that it is because they have not fulfilled the instructions of the immortals that the Peach Blossom World will suffer this calamity and need to make up for it.

The two took Gao Rui, said goodbye to everyone, and were just about to beat the horses and leave, when the two brothers Hu Laodao chased after them, "Brother Liu, please also ask us for two horses." We're here just to bring back my uncle's ashes. Now that we've got it, we're going to go back. The two of them begged.

It turned out that the uncle of the two of them entered the White Lotus Sect, returned to the west here, and was appointed by the master to come here to pick up the ashes of the uncle and return to the Taoist temple for burial. They see that Liu Cheng and Fluttershy don't have a good relationship with the people here, so they want to get two horses as well.

Song Hongyan happily agreed. Because when they get to the vicinity of Datong, they have to find a way to sneak through the checkpoint by themselves, and the horses generally can't take them over, and their uncle also has a relatively high status in the sect, so they still have to help with this little favor.

So five people and four fast horses rushed in the direction of Datong. Along the way, I saw that the water and grass on the edge of Fengzhou were fertile, there were many cattle and sheep, and there was a team of Mongolian cavalry rehearsing the formation, and the attack and defense were all obeying orders, and it was by no means a chaotic battle.

Liu Cheng thought to himself, this Altan Khan's army is really different from the Tatars in the past, and the White Lotus Sect must have taught them a lot of things to be with them, no wonder they can hit the city of Beijing, it seems that the Ming Dynasty army should be more careful.

After walking a long way, you realize that it is really easy to get lost without a guide in the desert surrounded by grasslands. Fortunately, they rely on solar energy to discern the general direction.

The scenery along the way is so beautiful, everywhere is green, walk in, you can also see some flowers in the grass that have not yet withered, under the blue sky and white clouds, often see all kinds of small animals in you chasing me to hide, you can occasionally see wild horses running in the distance, the most are birds, especially eagles hovering in the air, no matter where you go, it seems to always fly over your head. precisely

The eagle spreads its wings and dances in the sky,

Fertile water and green grass grow everywhere.

It is said that the winter wind blows the north,

Who knows that there is tenderness here.
