"What!??Failed again?!And there were heavy casualties!What did Long Teng eat?What did Qianlong Wei eat?" In the palace of the Han Dynasty, Liu Xingchen was furious when he saw Long Teng's recital, and the entire palace was shaking under the impact of his breath, as if it would collapse at any time.

"Slaves and maids are guilty, and they deserve death, and please ask the emperor to calm his anger. Seeing this, Liu Jixiang hurriedly knelt on the ground.

"Calm your anger, how do you let me calm my anger?" Liu Xingchen threw the fold in his hand in front of Liu Jixiang, and said angrily: "I ordered the hidden dragon guard to kill Xia Fan, but what did you do? First Long Fei was killed, and now it is Long Teng's fiasco, and the hidden dragon guard brought with him has suffered heavy losses, just one Xia Fan has made you so embarrassed, how can I trust you and hand over more important things to you in the future?"

"The slaves and maids have failed the emperor's grace, and they are terrified, so please punish the emperor. Of course, Liu Jixiang didn't dare to defend Long Teng at this time.

"The punishment will definitely be punished, but at the moment, you can still use your life to use soldiers on the grassland, so I will write down this matter first, if you make a meritorious service in the future, it will be repaid, if you do a big thing that smashes me, the two crimes will be punished together, not only the hidden dragon guard, even if you I will not be spared." Liu Xingchen said this, and his voice became more and more stern.

"Yes, the slave wrote it down. Liu Jixiang said busily.

"The battle between the Han Dynasty and the grassland is a national war, related to the national fortune of the Han Dynasty, it cannot be ignored, and Qianlongwei cannot stay out of it, you not only have to collect all kinds of intelligence, but also buy and assassinate some officials in important positions on the grassland, and be sure to make the grassland chaotic......" Liu Xingchen ordered in a deep voice.

Liu Jixiang memorized all of Liu Xingchen's orders in his heart, and only after Liu Xingchen stopped talking did he tentatively ask, "What about Xia Fan's side, do you want to send someone over to kill him again?"

"No need, now that they have been scared, no matter how many people are sent, they may not be able to kill him easily. A trace of coldness flashed in Liu Xingchen's eyes, and he said: "But this matter can't be just settled, the general Geng Qingping, who was ordered to exterminate the rebellion, does not have to come back for the time being after quelling the rebellion, and goes to the Blue Jade Country to exterminate Xia Fan and other rebellious ministers and thieves, and then blocks the border, cuts off trade with the Blue Jade Country, and then sends people to incite the Holy Dragon Kingdom and the Divine Eye Country to strangle Xia Fan's forces, and at the same time order the provinces bordering the Blue Jade Country to make a posture that they will march to attack Xia Fan's forces at any time and put pressure on them." ”

Liu Xingchen thought for a while and said: "In addition, send an order to Long Teng, so that he doesn't have to rush back first, and after recovering from his injuries, he will continue to assassinate the people who follow Xia Fan. Ordering someone to track down Xia Fan's whereabouts, I want to know where he is?"

"Yes. ”

...............

"Haha, Xia Fan was assassinated by the Qianlong Guard of the Han Dynasty, and his life and death are still unknown, a good thing. Long Xiaoshu, the head of the Holy Dragon Country, couldn't help but laugh when he received this information, and at the same time, he also realized that this was a good opportunity, so he said: "Spread the news of Xia Fan, especially let Xia Fan's army know." When their army is unstable, they will attack with all their strength and drive them out of the territory of the Holy Dragon Kingdom. ”

Speaking of the last sentence, Long Xiaoshu's face no longer had half a smile, and there was only Sen Ran's killing intent.

Recently, Xia Fan's army has been raging in the Holy Dragon Country, which has really made Long Xiaoshu a little angry. Now that he has the opportunity to fight back, he naturally will not let it go.

...............

Shen Zhong, the Divine Eye Country, who had been paying close attention to the movements of White Rock City and Yunhuan Lake, also knew the news of Xia Fan's disappearance, but he did not have a happy face, but said after pondering for a moment: "Temporarily block this information, especially not let Lan Haolin know, and at the same time continue to send troops to reinforce Qingyu City, and after defeating the besieging Yukong Yue, he will take Lan Haolin, and then use all his strength to capture Yunhuanhu Lake under the banner of helping him restore the country." ”

Shen Zhong had long coveted the land of Lan Yuguo for a long time, but now that Xia Fan and Lu Chuan were competing with Lan Haolin, he was not in a hurry to make a move, hoping that he could come out and pick up the bargain when they fought until they were defeated, but who knew that Lan Haolin was in vain as an emperor disciple, but it was so unbearable. So much so that he was first defeated by Xia Fan, and then he was beaten by Yukong Yue and retreated. If it weren't for the fact that there was a Qingyu City to defend, I am afraid that it would have been completely wiped out a long time ago.

Shen Zhong looked down on Lan Haolin, but he didn't want to watch him die, so he sent troops to help him before. Now that he heard that Xia Fan didn't know whether he was alive or dead, in his opinion, this was an opportunity. Taking advantage of the unstable hearts of the soldiers and horses under the command of Yukong Yue, he just defeated them and swept the Cloud Ring Lake.

...............

At this time, Lu Chuan, who was leading his troops to fight against the army of the Shenmu Kingdom again, also received information from the secret agent, and when he saw Xia Fan's disappearance, life and death were unpredictable, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment, and then crumpled the information, and muttered to himself: "It's impossible to be missing, dead?" I'm afraid that this little fox is digging a pit and calculating who is going on? Whoever jumps more fiercely at this time will definitely be liquidated by Xia Fan more and more in the future, so I'd better be cautious. ”

Of course, Lu Chuan didn't think about annexing Xia Fan's territory, but he couldn't deal with Xia Fan more than once, he used to be an enemy, but now he is an ally, and he has suffered more than one loss in Xia Fan's hands, and he not only understands him but is also quite jealous, so when he heard the news, the first thing he thought of was not that this was an opportunity, but that it was a big hole nine times out of ten.

If Lu Chuan had enough troops, he might try it under the banner of helping Xia Fan stabilize the situation. But now the soldiers and horses in his hand are already a little stretched to deal with the army of the Divine Eye Kingdom, and there is really no way to take care of anything else, plus he is really afraid that this is a pit, so he finally suppressed the matter, and he didn't know.

...............

Yong'an County.

Zhao Weiwei and Liu Yulinglong also received the news of Xia Fan's disappearance, but the two of them were quite calm. First, because they have extraordinary confidence in Xia Fan's strength, they firmly believe that he will definitely have no problems. The second is that Xia Fan's occasional disappearance is not uncommon, and they are all used to it, so they don't think there is any difference in this disappearance.

"Although it is normal to say that the boss occasionally disappears, we don't think so, but others may not think so, especially those who have just joined us, it is difficult to guarantee that they will not think nonsense, and it will not be good to do anything again. Zhao Weiwei said.

"Don't worry, I'll send someone to keep an eye on it, and whoever dares to jump out and make a fuss at this time will be killed. Liu Yu Linglong's handsome face flashed with a fierce murderous aura.

...............

Xia Fan was taken to an extremely desolate hill to recuperate from his injuries.

There are many such remote and inaccessible mountains in the Blue Jade Country, but the mountain that Jinsu is looking for is different from ordinary mountains.

Generally speaking, any place with good mountains and rivers and strong spiritual energy must be occupied by cultivators, even some poor mountains and evil waters with treacherous terrain and rampant beasts and poisonous insects may be entrenched by cultivators who practice evil skills, so it is not easy to find a mountain with strong spiritual energy and no owner, but the place that Jinsu brought him to is precisely such a mountain rich in spiritual energy.

It's just that on the surface, this mountain is really not very good. The rocks are steep and there is no luxuriant grass and trees, and even the exposed stones are dusty, no matter how you look at it, it gives people an extremely barren feeling, but after Xia Fan followed the formation through a very secret, almost impossible to find if someone led the way, and then passed through a series of three offensive and defensive formations, Xia Fan entered the belly of this mountain, and what came to his face was extremely rich, as if it was an aura that would liquefy at any time.

"What kind of place is this?" Xia Fan glanced at some of the houses standing around him, and found that the styles were very different, and many of them were quite ancient, obviously not built in the last few hundred years. Some of these houses are made of stone, some are made of mud or even wood, and because they are surrounded by layers of formations, they can withstand the erosion of time and remain immortal.

Xia Fan deduced from the style of these houses and formations, and he could be sure that the space in the belly of this mountain had already existed, and there were many people who had stayed here.

"This is where my teacher is. The array led Xia Fan to a house, and asked him to sit down before he said: "Don't hide it from the lord, I was a woodcutter in the world before I practiced, there were still many people around this mountain, and I often went to this mountain to collect firewood, one day I met a hungry wolf in the mountain, and ran here in order to escape for my life, and I was blessed with a great life, and it was extremely coincidental to pass through the three formations at the door, came here, and got the inheritance here, so I changed from a woodcutter to a formation mage." ”

"In this way, your master's inheritance should be quite old, how come you have never heard of it before?" Xia Fan looked at the houses in the distance that were shrouded in formations, and asked with some confusion.

"That's something I've always wanted to figure out. Jin Su shook his head and said with a bitter smile: "Not only has the Lord never heard of it, even if I have been in the business for so many years, I still don't know what the origin of our sect is, so when others ask me about my teacher, I either don't say it, or I claim to be a mountain dwelling sect." ”

"The mountain dwelling faction, living in the mountains, is also appropriate. Xia Fan laughed. It's not that he's laughing at Jinsu, but that he thinks his name is really funny.

"No one objected to me even if it wasn't appropriate, because before I accepted disciples, I was the only one in the Mountain Tribe. "When I came here, it was already empty. ”

"Then how did you learn the formation?" Xia Fan asked with some curiosity.

He asked this because the way of the formation was more extensive and profound, and it was more difficult to learn. Without Master's teaching, it would be really difficult to get started. This is also the reason why there are many cultivators in the cultivation world who are able to arrange some formations, but they are all simple and crude, not because they are not strong enough, but just because they can learn the essence of the formation at all, and they just take some formation diagrams that they don't know where to get them, and in the end, of course, they are in vain.

"Although there is no living person here, but there is an evil thing imprisoned, it can't break out of the formation by its own ability, so it wants to trick me into helping it get out of trouble, and I didn't understand the formation and didn't practice at that time, so naturally I couldn't help it, so it became my enlightenment teacher and led me into the Tao. When Jin Su said this, he couldn't help but smile, but there was a bit of bitterness in his smile.

"What about the evil thing you are talking about?" Xia Fan looked around, but did not notice what he was talking about.
