Chapter 803: Killing Hu Ling
In July in the northwest, the sun is like fire, and at noon, the sun that has completely turned into a big fireball hangs in the sky, and the temperature on the ground can almost bake all the eggs.
Although the weather is too hot, in recent days, there has been an endless stream of people coming and going every day on the official road leading from the north of Ganzhou to Qiyun County, and there are more and more trends.
The people who came and went on the official road, the most, were groups of riders dressed as wind and fire rangers, riding fast horses, or sitting in carriages, few in groups of three or five, and many dozens or hundreds together, hurrying towards the direction of Qiyun County.
In addition to these rangers, there are many teams that are the most crowded on the official road, and there are many teams that are organized at first glance, these teams are few dozens, many or even hundreds or thousands, and the long queue is driving carriages and consignment a lot of things, and the people in the team are all carrying weapons such as knives, bows and spears, and they are all in high spirits, heading towards Qiyun County.
As for those Jianghu characters who went to Qiyun County with swords and knives, there are countless of them.
Because there were too many carriages and horses going to Qiyun County, the official road that could have accommodated four carriages in parallel also became a little crowded, and those who rode horses or rhinosaurus horses could no longer let go of the speed of the mounts under their crotches to run on the official road, so they could only trot, not fast or slow towards Qiyun County.
Among the countless people and horses who went to Qiyun County, there was a team of people walking on the official road, but it was quite eye-catching.
There are about more than 200 people in this team, all of them are riding on rhinosaurus horses, and the momentum is extraordinary, although this team of people and horses are all wearing strong suits and samurai costumes, and they are wearing all the same color cloaks, but this team of people and horses are different from those ordinary characters and rangers, the most obvious point is that those people on this team of people and horses, almost all of them are carrying strong bows and arrows, swords and weapons are hung on the saddle, and some even carry long weapons that will be used in the army, and then look at the riders on the horses, one by one The breath is calm, not like ordinary people, many people are also wearing half-body armor that Jianghu people rarely wear, as long as people with a little experience in the rivers and lakes take a look, you can find that more than half of these horses have samurai cultivation or above.
At the front of this team of people and horses, there is an old man with a face like snow and eyebrows, on the saddle of this old man, there are two very scary long-handled armor-piercing machetes, with a thick evil aura, beside and behind this old man, there are more than a dozen young men and women who can almost make people see at a glance that they are masters and elites, these young men and women have bright eyes, or their temples are high and bulging, and a random glance can give people a kind of pressure.
These people walked on the official road, naturally no one dared to provoke, and the people they met along the way all looked at them and went on their own roads, and some even deliberately staggered with these people, so as not to get into any trouble.
Behind the old man at the front of this team, there were two women, the two women, one looked in his twenties, with a pretty face, heroic, graceful, and a unique taste, and the other looked only eighteen or nineteen years old, and he was also more beautiful than flowers, his eyes were as smart as water, and the corners of his mouth seemed to have a hint of a smile all the time.
The older woman looked at the official road in front of her, her eyes were thoughtful, as if she was thinking about something, and the younger woman looked at the official road in front of her, she was full of interest, her eyes were shining, and she kept looking at the crowd coming and going on the official road.
"Sister, I heard that when you came to the northwest to experience before, you knew that Qi Yun Governor Yan Liqiang, and you also killed the Shatu people together?" The eighteen or nineteen-year-old woman looked at it for a while, and suddenly her eyes turned to the woman in her twenties, and asked.
It's just that when this sentence was asked, the woman in her twenties still looked at the official road thoughtfully, as if she hadn't heard it.
"Sister......" the young woman of eighteen or nineteen called out in a loud voice again.
"Ah......" The woman in her twenties suddenly reacted and turned her head to look at the young woman next to her, "Did my sister call me?"
"Well, what is my sister thinking, I am distracted again, I found that as soon as my sister came to the northwest these days, she often went out of her mind on the road and often ignored people!"
"I was really thinking about something just now, and I didn't notice my sister calling me, I'll give my sister a sin first!" The woman in her twenties laughed, "I don't know what my sister just asked me!"
This woman in her twenties is Mo Ziye, the female disciple of the Ming Wangzong that Yan Liqiang met on the way when he escorted Sun Bingchen back to the imperial capital, and the two sides fought together with the Shatu people, although they were not together for a long time, but they were also friends who fought together, and Yan Liqiang still had a life-saving grace for Mo Ziye. And the younger woman is Mo Ziye's own sister Mo Ziling, both of them are disciples of Ming Wangzong, and their families have a great relationship with Ming Wangzong, and even the grandfather of the two is now one of the elders of Ming Wangzong, and his status in Mingwangzong is noble, which is extraordinary.
The biggest reason why Ming Wangzong sent a large number of disciples led by Elder Feng to the northwest this time was that last month, Yan Liqiang killed 50,000 Shatu elites in Baishi Pass, and then issued an order to kill Hu - according to the order to kill Hu, no matter who can cut off the head of a Shatu person or a black man outside Baishi Pass, he can get ten acres of grassland on the Gulang grassland outside Baishi Pass, and the more he kills, the more land and grassland he gets, and these grasslands will never be taxed.
As soon as this killing order came out, it simply shook the world, the rangers from all directions, as well as the people in the rivers and lakes, all flocked here, and the powerful clans in the northwest also organized their own brave volunteers, and all went to the Gulang grassland to hunt for foreign heads.
According to what Ming Wangzong and these people saw along the way, the entire northwest was almost boiling. If it was before, no one would care what a ten-acre grassland on the Gulang grassland could do, but now, the entire Han Empire is hungry and thirsty looking for wool, the value of a piece of grassland, compared with before, it is not the same, with the grassland can graze sheep, with sheep there is wool cloth, with wool cloth, the silver of white flowers can be said to be endless, the grassland, is simply a green gold mine.
In the Guannei, in recent years, for the sake of wool, even some landlords and wealthy families have taken the good land at home to grow grass and graze sheep, and outside the Guan, as long as you take off a foreign person's head casually, you can exchange ten acres of grassland, that is ten acres of fertile grassland, ten acres, such a good thing, for many people, it is simply a few hundred years can not be encountered, casually killing a hundred alien races is a thousand acres of grassland in hand, so all kinds of knife head licking blood characters, ambitious local clans, as well as wealthy and powerful wealthy and far-reaching wealthy magnates, for a time, heroes from all walks of life rushed into the northwest, poured into Qiyun County and Gulang grassland, a headhunting campaign that had never been seen in the history of the Han Empire and the entire Silver Continent was vigorously launched.
Although the Ming Dynasty Sect is the four major sects of the Han Empire, but to maintain such a large sect, it also needs money, economic resources, and the cost is greater, after hearing that Hu Ling was killed, the big men of the Sword God Sect discussed, anyway, even if they did not kill Hu Ling, the disciples of the Sword God Sect are often sent to the battlefield in the northwest to hone life and death, this time simply organize a little more manpower to the northwest, to see if it can be the second bigest, if it can not only allow the disciples of the sect to be tempered in the battlefield and fighting, but also open up a steady stream of financial resources and business for the Ming Dynasty Sect in the northwest, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds。
It is precisely because of this that there was this time Mo Ziye and their trip to the northwest, Mo Ziye and their group were only sent by the Ming Wang Sect to explore the way, and they were the vanguard of the Ming Wang Sect, see if this matter can be done, if it can, the Ming Wang Sect will send more masters and disciples to come.
......
"Does Sister Mo know that Qi Yun Guardian Yan Liqiang?" Mo Ziling blinked and continued to ask.
"Acquaintance!" Mo Ziye smiled lightly.
"I don't know what kind of person that Yan Liqiang is......" Mo Ziling looked at his sister with curiosity, Over the years, I have heard a lot of rumors about him in the sect, and some of those rumors are too exaggerated, if he is a master of the organ, I still believe it, after all, he also invented wool cloth, the improved spinning machine and loom, and the water and fire machine, it is indeed exquisite, but those rumors say that his cultivation is also extremely powerful, and I don't believe it when he cultivates in the northwest, and those senior brothers of our Ming Wang Sect are a little unconvinced, is he really so powerful when my sister met that Yan Liqiang?"
Mo Ziye smiled, there was a look of memory in her eyes, "When I met Yan Liqiang that day, he was only sixteen years old, escorting Sun Bingchen into Beijing, and met ...... by chance on the way" The events of that year were sad for Mo Ziye, so she didn't want to go into too much detail, just a brushstroke, "Although he was young at that time, he was already outstanding among his peers, and I haven't seen him all these years, I'm afraid it's even more powerful, those rumors may not be true!" Otherwise, how could he become the Guardian of Qi Yun at this age, and be able to behead 50,000 Shatu elites at Baishi Pass? Such a feat, how could an ordinary person do it!"
"What my sister said is, listening to my sister say this, I really want to see that Yan Liqiang this time......" Mo Ziling said with some longing in his eyes.
Looking at the look in her sister's eyes, how could Mo Ziye, who was a person who came over, not understand what it meant, which made her heart slightly vigilant, a woman often starts from curiosity when a man falls, Mo Ziye turned around and looked at the senior brothers and disciples behind her who were still some distance away from herself and Mo Ziling, and she couldn't help but say another sentence seemingly unintentionally, " I heard that Yan Liqiang's status in the northwest and Qiyun County is extraordinary, and many people are optimistic about him, he is married to the Lu family, a big family in Qiyun County, and he is a little ambiguous with a young lady of the Zhong family in the northwest, and he will marry two wives at the same time in the future, such a man will spend his heart as soon as he has the ability......"
"Sister, when you say this, it's a bit like you're talking about Elder He, hehehe......" Mo Ziling laughed as if he didn't understand, "Our Elder He has six senior ......."
"Sister, don't talk nonsense......"
