National Teacher's House.

"King Qijun, according to the spies' report, Fang Zhi and Zhou Deng have already set off."

Yang Guoshi slowly picked up a book of tea.

"The king of this county knows, it's just Yang Guoshi, you asked me to come this time, won't it be just for such a trivial matter?"

Qin Mingqi stared at Yang Guoshi and asked.

"Naturally not, King Qijun, now the national division will not hide it from you, the national division intends to help you ascend to the throne, but you have also seen the current situation,

Zhou Deng didn't say it, now that there is another way, even if the national teacher wants to help you to take the position, he is more than willing and not enough. ”

Yang Guoshi said lightly.

"What does Yang Guoshi mean by this?"

"Zhou Dengfang has been against his own division three or four times, if King Qijun wants to ascend to the throne, then he must first get rid of these two guys who are in the way!"

"Yang Guoshi means that he wants to get rid of Fang Zhi and Zhou Deng by the hand of the king of this county?"

"Yes, what's more, that Fang Zhi was introduced by Prince Chun before he could sit in the position of the right national teacher, so Prince Chun has the grace of knowing Fang Zhi.

Fang Zhi is naturally of the same mind as Prince Chun, presumably this, King Qijun doesn't need to be reminded by his national teacher, right? ”

Yang Guoshi smiled slightly.

It was as if everything had nothing to do with him.

"Whoever stands in the way of the king of his county will surely die! This matter shall be entrusted to the king of this county. ”

King Qijun said with a heavy face.

"Then the national division will wait for the good news of the county king."

Yang Guoshi smiled.

King Qijun nodded, and immediately brushed his sleeves away.

Looking at the back of King Qijun.

Yang Guoshi became more and more happy.

He said to himself, "Fang Zhi, this time it's not my national teacher who wants your life, you can't blame me." ”

By a stream outside the city.

Fang Zhi Zhou Deng sat on the ground, the two of them held a kettle in their hands, and drank water in large gulps.

"Poof!"

Fang Zhi squirted out the water in his mouth, took back the kettle and looked at Zhou Deng.

"Archmage, how far are we from the Heavenly Tower?"

"There are about 300 kilometers left!"

Zhou Deng stretched out his hand, counted his fingers, and replied.

"What? And so far? How long will it take us to get there? ”

Hear what Zhou Deng said about 300 kilometers.

Fang Zhi almost didn't spurt out a mouthful of old blood.

In those days, there were no cars, no airplanes, and so on.

Three hundred kilometers, even the fastest, takes more than a day to arrive.

"National teacher, this is also helpless, and we are fast enough at the moment, and we will be outside Tianliang City in just two hours."

Zhou Deng spread his hands and walked in front of Fang Zhi.

"You ......"

Fang Zhi was speechless for a while, raised his hand and slapped it towards the big bald head.

As soon as Zhou Deng lowered his head, he dodged Fang Zhi's slap.

"Hey, hey! Didn't fight. ”

Zhou Deng smiled.

"Bang~"

"Ah......h

But he didn't expect Fang Zhi's fist to hit him directly on the nose.

Suddenly made Zhou Deng scream.

"It's going to be this time!"

Fang Zhi said angrily.

"No, National Teacher, even if you kill me, we can't fly to the Sky Tower in an instant."

Zhou Deng covered his nose and said aggrievedly.

"Okay, stop talking nonsense, it's getting dark, let's hurry into the city and find a place to live."

Fang Zhi waved his hand.

got on the horse at the same time as Zhou Deng and headed towards Tianliang City.

Tianliang City is quite large, although it is not as good as Kyoto, but it is also very prosperous.

After all, Tenryo Castle is strategically located close to Kyoto.

After entering the city, the two found an inn and stayed first.

After a short break, the two went downstairs.

ordered a table of dishes, and Fang Zhi was eating alone.

As a monk, Zhou Deng naturally can't eat meat, so he can only eat his own vegetarian dishes, looking at Fang Zhi with blank eyes.

"Archmage, are you sure you don't want to come a little? This chicken is delicious. ”

Fang Zhi held a piece of chicken and slowly swiped it in front of Zhou Deng.

"Amitabha, national teacher, don't underestimate me, I, Zhou Deng, am also a high-ranking monk, and I won't break my vows because of this."

"In that case, there's no way, only I'll solve the dishes on this table."

Fang Zhi laughed and began to eat.

Finish a meal.

Fang Zhi hiccuped several times in a row.

Since coming to Nan'an after the crossing, this is the first time Fang Zhi has eaten so full.

Although he was with Fang's father and mother before, he didn't go hungry, but he didn't enjoy this kind of nonsense.

On the other hand, Zhou Deng was aggrieved and ate vegetarian dishes, glancing at the leftovers on the table from time to time.

"Haha...... I said, Archmage, why do you bother? ”

Fang Zhi laughed.

"Humph!"

Zhou Deng snorted unconvinced, and finished the rice in the bowl in one go.

That's when I put down my job.

"It is said that yesterday we had another national teacher in Nan'an, what is it called...... Presentable. ”

Fang Zhi and Zhou Deng were about to leave.

I heard someone next to me talking about Fang Zhi.

Fang Zhi was not interested in hearing his deeds.

On the contrary, Zhou Deng was very interested, and pulled Fang Zhi to sit down again.

"I've heard about it, and I heard that this Fang Guoshi is only seventeen years old, and he is younger than Yang Guoshi."

Another man spoke.

"Who knows if this Fang Zhi is really capable, or if he relies on relationships, but I heard that he has a lot to do with Prince Chun."

"That's not necessarily the case, I heard that when I treated the king that day, Fang Guoshi really showed his powers."

"Who knows, let's not talk about him, let's talk about what happened to the Sky Tower recently."

"Shhhh You can't talk nonsense about the skyscraper. ”

"No one is talking nonsense, but when I heard the news that came back, the workers who climbed to the sky did not survive."

"Yes, I've heard about it too, and it seems that it was made by youkai."

"Youkai again? This is the territory of our human beings in Nan'an, why do we have to endure these monsters' misdeeds. ”

Some people said indignantly.

"Yes, since Yang Guoshi took the throne, we can see monsters running rampant in the city of our Nan'an Kingdom all the time."

"This damn Yang Guoshi!"

"Shh~~"

The words fell.

A group of people made a silent gesture.

"Originally, it was originally the monster that caused trouble in Nan'an, and then what kind of sky-climbing tower was built, and there were countless people killed by him."

"So what's the solution? We're just ordinary people, and we can't talk about these things. ”

"Alas, there is no way, drink and drink."

The four of them picked up their glasses and drank them.

Hear the moment.

Fang Zhi already felt that there was no need to listen to it.

immediately pulled Zhou Deng's sleeve, and the two returned to the room one after the other.

"It seems that Yang Guoshi is indeed angry and resentful, and even these ordinary people at the bottom hate him to the core."

Fang Zhi said in a deep voice.

"But it's not, I didn't expect that so many things have happened in ten years, and now, we can only find a way to get rid of Yang Guoshi in order to restore the prosperity of Nan'an in the past."
