readx;? Yin Mo led a hundred city troops to explore a radius of ten miles around the dense forest, but found no trace of Lu Yifan. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info At this moment, the night was dark, Yin Mo led people back to the dense forest, intending to report the investigation to Zhao Wuyang, but when he and his men entered the forest, the strange silence in the dense forest suddenly gave birth to an extremely ominous premonition in Yin Mo's heart.

"Phew!"

Yin Mo hurriedly reined in the horse, and at the same time stretched out his hand to signal the people behind him to stop, a pair of solemn eyes looked around left and right in the dense forest, except for the place where they were illuminated by torches, the other directions of the dense forest were all pitch black, there was no light at all, let alone noisy and noisy sounds. The entire dense forest was as quiet as death, except for Yin Mo's horses moving a few times from time to time, there was no other movement between heaven and earth.

At this moment, the dense forest is quiet and a little terrifying.

"Commander Yin, is it a little too quiet in the forest?" A city soldier who followed behind Yin Mo looked at the darkness around him with a look of jealousy, and his eyes inadvertently showed a look of unexplained worry, "Could it be that Commander Zhao has already caught Lu Yifan, so they went back first?"

"Impossible!" Yin Mo's eyes narrowed slightly, and he said in a solemn tone, "If Commander Zhao catches Lu Yifan, he will definitely send someone to inform us, and he will never say goodbye!"

"Could it be that we are afraid ......that we will steal the credit?"

"Shut up!" Without waiting for the city soldier to speculate again, Yin Mo snorted coldly, and immediately interrupted the man's words, "Something is not right here, I ordered everyone to follow me, and no one is allowed to leave the team without permission!"

"Yes!"

After Yin Mo gave the order, he took the lead in riding his horse towards the darkness in the depths of the dense forest, Yin Mo and his hundred city army advanced very slowly, everyone stared at the darkness around the dense forest with wide eyes, one by one trembling, as if some monster would rush out of the darkness to eat them unexpectedly, everyone did not dare to take it lightly, although they held swords in their hands, there were still some timid people whose legs were trembling.

Yin Mo led people deeper and deeper, followed by a heavier mood and an inexplicable increase in tension. However, just after Yin Mo led people around a few towering trees, the scene that suddenly appeared in front of him made everyone's hearts skip a beat, and at this moment, with a gust of cold wind quietly hitting, the city army that was already frightened and pale was sweating like rain one by one, and even more couldn't help but wet their pants.

At this moment, in front of Yin Mo and the others, in a relatively open wood, under the hazy moonlight, countless blood-drenched corpses were hanging high above the big trees, and the corpses hanging on the branches were swaying with the wind, like a defeated willow and a remnant flower, better than hanging a ghost, and more like a pig and sheep in a slaughterhouse. The rich smell of blood fills this world and is disgusting!

In the dark and lonely night forest, this scene is particularly terrifying. Yin Mo and the others looked at the scene in front of them with shocked eyes, and they didn't come back to their senses for a long time.

......

At the same time, in the Northern Frontier Guard Mansion, which is tens of thousands of miles away from Jinling City, a heinous bloody massacre is also taking place at this moment.

"Governor Xi Chen, what the hell is going on? Otherwise, let's go out and make things clear to Lord Lan, right?" The person who spoke was an official of the Imperial City, named Wu Chun. Wu Chun is the emperor's chief butler, but also the emperor's cronies, although there is no cultivation, but this person has a lot of eyes, cautious and reliable, and loyal to the emperor, so he won the appreciation of the emperor Yanchong. Wu Chun was ordered by the Emperor to sneak into the Border Guard Mansion through the teleportation formation yesterday, the purpose was to have a private meeting with Xi Chen, and to find out the true situation in Northern Xinjiang for the Emperor, especially to find out Lan Shixun's current movements.

Don't look at the emperor pretending to be indifferent on the surface on weekdays, in fact, he has been secretly calculating the time, and now he has calculated that Lan Shixun's 50,000 army has almost arrived in northern Xinjiang, so he secretly sent Wu Chun to the border guard mansion to meet Xi Chen privately.

It's a pity that although Emperor Yan Chong has already sensed Lan Shixun's disobedience, he still underestimated Lan Shixun's determination to rebel.

Lan Shixun arrived in Northern Xinjiang two days ago, and after he led the army into Northern Xinjiang, he did not go to visit Xi Chen as soon as possible, but directly led the army into Chu Lingtian's Northern Xinjiang Battalion, and the 50,000 troops led by him and the 100,000 horsemen of the Northern Xinjiang Battalion were integrated, and Lan Shixun also directly replaced Chu Lingtian's position as commander, and at the same time removed Lan Chen's power, and personally took charge of the 150,000 Sacred Domain Army.

And the first thing Lan Shixun did after entering the northern Xinjiang was not to blame Lan Chen, nor to reward Chu Lingtian, but to directly mobilize 50,000 troops to rush south and surround the entire Dingbei Town. Then before Xi Chen came forward to confront Lan Shixun, Lan Shixun, who did not say a word, directly ordered the slaughter of the city, and the army of 50,000 holy domains slaughtered into the small town of Dingbei like a wolf and a tiger, and the people in the town instantly fell into purgatory on earth, and for a while, the lives were devastated, the blood flowed like a river, and the heart-rending wails spread throughout the northern Xinjiang, and the fear of life was worse than death filled the hearts of everyone in the town, and everyone was either in the pain of being killed, or in the fear of being killed!

Under the ravages and slaughter of 50,000 troops, it was difficult to find a living mouth in Dingbei Town in less than a day, and corpses were piled up all over the ground, and the walls were broken everywhere. The town was full of fire, the wails of the fields gradually died down, and the small river of blood flowed bubbling in every street in the town, and the houses, walls, trees, and pavilions were full of scars from slashing and axes, and everywhere were the blood splashed by innocent people when they died in vain, and the smell of blood wafted in the streets and alleys of the town.

An army of 50,000 also roamed the town in groups of three or five carrying bloody butcher's knives, carefully checking whether there were any survivors, and if they found one, they would not hesitate to make up for a few more knives. Lan Shixun is full of words, and his words are true, since he ordered the slaughter of the city, he must definitely leave no one behind, otherwise these sergeants who are responsible for sweeping the tail will not be safe.

At this moment, except for the Border Guard Mansion, the entire Dingbei Town is a sea of blood. And the reason why the 50,000 army did not enter the Border Guard Mansion was because Lan Shixun specially ordered that the Border Guard Mansion should be kept as the last thing he personally killed. Lan Shixun can sit still, but it doesn't mean that Xi Chen can also sit still, as early as when the 50,000 army attacked Dingbei Town, Xi Chen personally led the 3,000 soldiers left by Han Xiao and all the northern guards in the mansion to kill them, but unfortunately in front of the 50,000 army Xi Chen's men and horses are really pitiful, so under a few charges, Xi Chen's command has been wiped out. In the end, he was forced to be helpless, and Xi Chen could only take Hu Lao, Tan Si, and Qin Bao to return to the Border Guard Mansion with the surviving banner owners, and only then did he survive until now.

It was late at night, but the lights outside the Border Guard Mansion were bright and very lively, and countless sergeants had surrounded the Border Guard Mansion, and the row of sergeants standing at the front was each holding a blazing torch in his hand, illuminating the gate of the Border Guard Mansion as bright as day.

In the middle of the sergeants, Lan Shixun was sitting gracefully on a chair that had just been moved and closed his eyes to recuperate, while Lan Jin and Lan Chen were standing straight on Lan Shixun's left and right, and then standing next to them were Chu Lingtian, Hai Lao, Ma Rufeng, Fan Jiang and others. Several small commanders stood outside the gate of the mansion and shouted and cursed, trying to force Xi Chen and the others out.

In the Frontier Guard Mansion, Wu Chun looked at Xi Chen, who was covered in blood, with a frightened face, he listened to the incessant shouting and scolding outside the mansion, and felt the fear of being besieged by tens of thousands of troops, and he had no confidence in his heart, he originally thought that coming to Northern Xinjiang this time was an easy and good errand, but he never expected that there would be such a catastrophe of life and death on this trip.

"Governor Xi Chen, do you have something to say?" Wu Chun kept urging Xi Chen, who was sitting on the chair, looking extremely flustered, "We can't just sit here all the time and wait for them to rush in, right?"

"Rats, shut up for me!" Tan Si, who was bloodstained, was bandaging the wound on his arm at the moment, and when he saw Wu Chun's greedy appearance and fear of death, he was angry, "If you want to go out, you just go out by yourself, no one here stops you!"

"I ......" How could Wu Chun have the courage to do this? His heart was already out of the backbone, at this moment he just wanted to pray to God and worship the Buddha to return to Jinling City safely and steadily, but the teleportation formation to return to Jinling Imperial City was outside the palace gate, if he wanted to go back, he had to go out, but once he left the mansion gate, could he still live? Don't forget that there were tens of thousands of tigers and wolves gathered there waiting for him.

"Old Hu, how many of us died?" said Xi Chen with a tired face, his voice sounding weak.

"Back to the Governor, except for a few of us, all the other brothers died during the day!" Hu Lao replied with a bitter face, "Lan Shixun is going to kill them all this time......

"Anyway, it's all a death, it's better to go out and fight with them!" Qin Bao shouted angrily.

"Do you really think so?" Xi Chen raised his eyebrows, looked at the embarrassed Hu Lao, Tan Si and Qin Bao, and said with a smile, "It's not easy to live tonight, but it's very simple to die!"

"I don't want to die!" Wu Chun's legs weakened when he heard this, "I want to live......!

"Let's go!" Xi Chen didn't pay attention to Wu Chun's wail at all, but stood up on his own, picked up a bloodstained sword on the table, and walked towards the gate of the mansion with Hu Lao and the three of them up, "Whether you want to die or live, you have to go out and meet Lan Shixun!"

"Dad, Xi Chen is out!" Lan Jin saw several figures swaying in the mansion gate at a glance, and then said with a sneer, "I see that he already knows that he has reached the end of his rope and will die sooner or later!"

And completely different from Lan Jin's reaction, Lan Chen's eyebrows at this moment were faintly revealing an indescribable solemnity, as if he still had a trace of sympathy for Xi Chen's fate tonight.

"Governor Xi Chen, we haven't seen each other for almost ten years, right?" Facing Xi Chen, who walked out slowly, Lan Shixun didn't mean to get up, he just tilted his body slightly, and then said with a light smile, "Governor Xi Chen, it's really Hongfu Qitian, looking at your appearance, your body is still very tough!"

"Lan Shixun, last time you led your troops to quell the troubles in the Zhuo Wolf Grassland, and it was this trick that killed the Xie Zi Battalion and wiped out the entire army! I didn't expect that today, you will still use the same trick, and the 50,000 army of Lord Han Xiao will be wiped out again!" Xi Chen sneered and said, "This fisherman has been a fisherman for ten years as soon as you do it, and you have earned a lot of fame and fortune, Xi really doesn't know whether to admire you or despise you!"

"Sandpiper and clam compete for fishermen's profits, if you want to blame you for not being able to see the situation clearly, every time I am willing to be the fish on my board, don't I eat the fat meat sent to my mouth?" Lan Shixun sneered and said, "But this time is different from last time, this time I don't just want to invite merit in front of the emperor......"

"I know! Your ultimate goal this time is to sit on the throne of the emperor!" Before Lan Shixun could finish speaking, Xi Chen interrupted him with a sneer, "Wolf ambition, the governor of Pontus has already seen you through!"

"What if you see through it? What if Han Xiao sees through it? Lu Haoqian can also see through him?" Lan Shixun laughed wantonly, "Yan Chong still chooses to believe me instead of you in the end!"

"You are scheming, but don't think that you can hide it from the world!"

"Forget it!" Lan Shixun waved his hand nonchalantly, "I just used a little trick to beat Han Xiao and Lu Haoqian into a land of no return, the imperial dynasty is full of my eyes and ears, your every move, your careful thoughts are all under my control." If it weren't for my son Lan Chen's soft-heartedness, do you think you would still be alive now? Do you think that the three thousand sergeants who Han Xiao had been surviving would still be alive today?"

"Shameless man, you are secretly dealing with the beast clan against us, you are simply a pig and a dog!" Tan Si shouted angrily.

"It's just that they use each other to take what they need!" Lan Shixun smiled casually, "Now the entire Northern Frontier is under my control, as long as I get rid of a few of you tonight, there will be no more enemies in the huge Northern Frontier!"

"Lord Lan...... The little one was just ordered to come on an errand, and all this is none of the villain's business......" Wu Chun had already knelt down in front of Lan Shixun at this moment, pleading bitterly with a handful of snot and tears.

"Wu Chun, aren't you supposed to be serving Yan Chong in the Imperial City, how can you be here now?" Lan Shixun frowned suspiciously at first, but soon he figured everything out and sneered disdainfully, "It seems that Yan Chong has already suspected me, so he sent you to meet with Xi Chen privately, the purpose is to investigate the evidence of my rebellion, yes or no?"

"Yes...... Ah no!" Wu Chun explained again and again in a panic, "I haven't found anything, I don't know anything...... Lord Lan is loyal and courageous, and he is the minister of His Majesty the Emperor......"

"You don't have to compliment me, I won't kill you tonight!" Lan Shixun said with a sneer, at this moment he looked at Wu Chun's expression like he was looking at a dog, "I also want you to help me bring a big gift to His Majesty the Emperor!

"Yes, yes...... The villain must be brought!must be brought!" As soon as Wu Chun heard that he didn't have to die, his face immediately burst into laughter, "I just don't know what kind of gift Lord Lan wants the villain to bring?"

Hearing Wu Chun's words, Lan Shixun couldn't help but smile lightly, and then he slowly cast his gaze on Xi Chen, who had a solemn face, and the smile on his face instantly became more exciting.

"The gift I asked you to bring is that of Governor Xichen...... Heads on the neck!"
