Chapter 16 No eggs under the nest

A rapid sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Dong Yanzhou put his hand on the pergola and looked at it, only to see three burly knights with sharp blades hanging from their waists constantly whipping their horses and trying their best to gallop towards where they were. Among them, the knight with a Chinese face at the front is his eldest son Dong Renzhao.

Seeing this, Dong Yanzhou couldn't help frowning, because he saw a hint of anxiety in his family's expressions and movements, which cast a haze on his heart.

"Dad, the eldest brother is back from the news!"

At this moment, a young man's voice came from behind him, and there was a hint of excitement in his rough voice.

Dong Yanzhou didn't need to look back to know that it was his fifth son Dong Xinzhao who spoke, and he didn't invite any of his friends in the rivers and lakes on this trip to seize the curse, but just brought his three sons and the descendants of his own Yiyun Society into the mountain.

Among the three sons, in addition to the eldest son who went out to inquire about the news just now and the youngest son who is now standing behind him, there is also his fourth son Dong Zhizhao, but at this time, the fourth son of the Dong family, who is obsessed with horses, is washing his beloved horses in the camp.

As for the reason, it's not that he, the old helmsman Dong, wants to monopolize this curse, but simply doesn't want to cause others to lose their lives in vain.

After all, this trip to take the curse is too dangerous, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a life of nine deaths.

In fact, even the three sons who followed him into the mountain this time were also decided by drawing lots. Tiger poison does not eat children, and he Dong Yanzhou is not a hard-hearted person who does not take his son's life seriously......

In an instant, Dong Renzhao and the other three horsemen arrived at the gate of the camp.

"Look at your face, did you find the people of the Western Continent? Which one, the Creation God Cult or the Brown Man, and what is the specific situation? ”

As soon as Dong Renzhao got off Ma Dong Yanzhou, he asked eagerly, this performance is not because he has lost an inch, but because the matter is too important.

Hearing his father's question, Dong Renzhao didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly took out a bright yellow silk cotton stained with a lot of blood stains from the placket of his clothes and handed it over, and said with a blue face:

"Dad, see for yourself!"

Since seeing the bright yellow silk, Dong Yanzhou's expression instantly became much more solemn.

"Templars, hehe." He smiled bitterly, "I didn't expect it to be the craziest group of madmen." ”

"Dad, that's not all." Dong Renzhao's face was gloomy as if he could drip water, "They are defeated!" ”

"Defeated?" Hearing this, Dong Yanzhou's eyes suddenly widened.

"Hmm." Dong Renzhao nodded, and added, "And it's a panic!" ”

Dong Yanzhou's face became more and more solemn, "Do you know who did it?" Long ears or brown man? ”

Dong Renzhao shook his head, "We just ambushed two madmen who fell behind during the retreat, one of them was seriously injured, and we will go to see their goddess after the battle." The other one was stubborn, refused to say anything, and wanted to fight back, and was killed by me. As he spoke, he shook the short iron whip in his hand, which was still stained with blood and brains.

Hearing this, Dong Yanzhou lowered his head and took two steps, then turned back suddenly, and ordered in a loud voice:

"Fifth brother, go find your fourth brother to gather people, we're on our way!"

"Daddy!" Hearing this, Dong Renzhao was so frightened that he almost jumped up, and he said with a worried face:

"Knowing that the road ahead is dangerous, why do we still go to the place of death? Our Dong family's power in the four towns of Wushan is already big enough, and the rewards of Emperor Yun 1 are not worth anything at all, as long as they take out tens of thousands of yuan, what good officials can't buy them? Even if it's a knighthood, don't you dare to think about it, can you fight for your life for these? And even if we fight for our lives, we may not end up well! Wang Duhu, who led the military of the four towns 2, didn't take it seriously, we were just people from the rivers and lakes, why bother with this matter? ”

"After all, Wang Duhu is a civil official, so it's understandable that he doesn't know the severity of this matter!" Dong Yanzhou patiently explained that his eldest son was the second strongest martial artist among the people who followed him into the mountain this time, and he still needed more efforts to capture the spell this time, so if it was possible, it would be better to persuade or persuade.

As for why the commander-in-chief of the four towns of Wushan is a civil official, it has to start from a hundred years ago. At that time, the eighteenth empire of Seris collapsed Wushan, unified the Eastern Continent, and a country, whether it was the emperor or the market Li Shu, they all thought that from then on, they could put swords and guns into the warehouse, and the horses were put in Nanshan, and they often enjoyed a peaceful world.

Therefore, the national policy turned to civil governance, in order to prevent the martial artists from being dissatisfied and raising troops, the Yun Emperor handed over the logistics supply and official promotion of the martial artists to the civilian officials. And in order to add another layer of insurance, all the military town chiefs have also been replaced by Wenchen.

However, with such a toss and turn of military force, the country's national defense strength and ability to respond to emergencies do not need to be mentioned......

It's just that his father's kind words boosted Dong Renzhao's arrogance, so he simply didn't go over it and played a trick.

"Whoever likes to go, I won't go anyway!"

"Bastard!" Now Dong Yanzhou can't bear it anymore, you must know that he is also a hot man!

"You rebel, you are so short-sighted! Do you think the old man's entry into the mountain this time is really a reward for Emperor Lao'er? Joke! ”

Dong Yanzhou said from the bottom of his heart: "I'm doing this for the hundreds of millions of people in the empire!" ”

However, Dong Renzhao was still stubborn, he pursed his lips, "What does their life and death have to do with our Dong family?" ”

At this moment, Dong Xinzhao, the fifth elder who had been watching from the sidelines, interjected, "Big brother, just listen to your father, those people are nothing more than beating away a group of Templars, what's the big deal?" Even if my father can't get it, with a few of our Dong brothers, we can easily clean it up! ”

"Shut up! What do you know as a little kid? Dong Renzhao glanced at him and said contemptuously. You must know that his sons are five years older than the old five, how can he bear to be underestimated by him? And the other party is indeed a little too unaware of the height of the sky.

"Obviously it's the eldest brother, you are cowardly......" The fifth said in a low voice.

"Enough!" Dong Yanzhou broke off and stopped the quarrel between the two sons.

He stared at his eldest son with burning eyes, "Let me ask you, if one of the two sects in the Western Continent gets that pair of city forbidden spells and hits the four towns of Wushan, what will you do if you are the head of my Dong family?" ”

"This ......" Dong Renzhao hesitated, "My Dong family can pack up and retreat to the hinterland of the empire." ”

"What if the other party is still not satisfied and continues to march into the hinterland of the empire?" Dong Yanzhou continued to ask aggressively.

"Ugh." Dong Renzhao was speechless.

"There will always be a time when you can't escape!" Dong Yanzhou directly asserted.

"This time to seize the curse, even if it is not for others, my Dong family will fight for their children and grandchildren! Under the nest, how many eggs are gone? I don't understand such a simple truth, how could the old man give birth to such a stupid son as you?! Dong Yanzhou looked at his eldest son, who was close to the age of the Mandate of Heaven, and said with hatred that iron is not made of steel.

"Alas!" Dong Renzhao let out a long sigh and lowered his head. Although there is still some resistance to this curse snatching trip, there is no doubt that what my Lao Tzu said is indeed reasonable.

That's right, under the nest, there are no eggs?

I just didn't expect it......

He glanced at the father who couldn't wait to fly on the horse and leave the dust, and smiled a little sarcastically.

My father has been a thief all his life, and when he is dying, he is going to do the work for the country and the people...... That's the funniest thing in the world, isn't it?

Three hours later, in the glade where the tomb of the Osan scholar was located.

After glancing at a nearby giant tree, but finding no sign of the elven sisters, he crouched down and groped around the corpse of Templar Captain Jerry.

After a few moments, he found what he was looking for.

It was a small porcelain vase covered in silver.

"Hey, hey!" Buchen smiled slyly, yes, there is no doubt that what he wants to get his hands on is the "holy medicine" of the Templars!

In yesterday's bloody battle, the Templars used this item one after another to improve their strength, which left a very deep impression on this slut, and he had wanted to find an opportunity to search for it after the Templars were defeated yesterday, but because the elven sisters were too tightly glued at the time, and his own injuries were too heavy, he had to give up.

However, after four days of healing in the virtual world, his body is now almost recovered.

Well, naturally, it's time for a "treasure hunt".

As for the question of whether it is moral to take drugs or something in battle...... Don't look at the fact that he used this to exchange Cedric yesterday, but to be honest, he doesn't really take this kind of behavior very seriously.

After all, he himself is a man with no discipline......

"Hey, it's a pity that there's only one bottle left." After holding the bottle of holy medicine in his arms, the slut sighed regretfully and said dissatisfied.

It was just at this moment that something next to the corpse of Douglas's tall black dragon horse caught his attention.

It was a long blade about eight feet long, with two sides open, and very delicate workmanship!

It's Douglas's spear!

Seeing it, Buchen's eyes suddenly lit up.

Note 1 Emperor Yun: The royal Yun family of the Eighteenth Empire of Seris, the ancestor of which was Yun Zhizhen, who had been a general of the Seventeenth Empire. In addition, the Seris people did not have a country name such as "Qin, Chu, Zhao, Wei, and Han", and in order to flaunt orthodoxy, they often called the dynasty at that time by the number of dynastic changes.

Note 2: The supreme military commander of a frontier military town in a certain strategic direction.
