Chapter 49: The Prophecy Comes True
Perhaps because of the withdrawal of the troops of Taiping Dao, the men and horses of Kong Deyao, the general of the expedition to the west, arrived in Rongcheng one day later than agreed.
And with the arrival of the imperial army along the way, Guo Ming and others were also completely relieved.
Sun Jue is the same.
"What? Are you leaving now? ”
Qi Heng looked at Sun Jue, only to feel inexplicable.
Sun Jue didn't leave when the Taiping Dao army attacked the city, but now that the danger is lifted, when the soldiers outside are in chaos, Sun Jue is leaving.
[Could it be that my previous speculation is true?] Da Lang has achieved his goal these days while the people of the war are panicking? 】
Qi Heng thought in his heart, but he didn't show anything on his face.
Sun Jue said with a smile: "Yes, now that the danger of Rongcheng has been lifted, there is a safe road opened up by the imperial court forbidden army outside, and it is just at this time to leave." ”
This forbidden army came from the direction of Mingzhou, and along the way attacked the city and pulled out the village, it also played a great reputation, and now it has entered Rongcheng, which can be regarded as occupying a strategic place, and can further recover Zhuozhou.
Therefore, if Sun Jue goes to Mingzhou along this road, there should not be too much danger.
In any case, it is also a forbidden army of the imperial court, and the most elite troops of Dachang Kingdom will not do anything to ordinary people casually, and safety can also be guaranteed.
Of course, the main thing is that what should be in hand has already been obtained, and there is no point in continuing to stay here.
He needs to take the initiative to create opportunities.
After listening to Sun Jue's explanation, Qi Heng thought about it carefully, and it did make some sense.
"Then you should be careful on the road, although it should be safer, but now is the time of chaos, and the imperial court has only temporarily stabilized the situation in many places, which does not mean absolute safety."
Qi Heng didn't have any reason to keep Sun Jue.
There is no such thing as an indispersible banquet in the world, and he has long been very clear.
"It just so happens that Boyang and they are all in Mingzhou, I will write you a letter, if you have the opportunity, give this letter to them, and say that it is safe here and you can come back."
"If you don't meet it, then forget it, I will send someone else to look for it, and you don't have to go out of your way to find it."
The reason why Qi Heng arranged for the Qi family's people to take refuge elsewhere before was because he didn't have much confidence that Rongcheng would be able to defend it.
And the same is true of what happened, if it weren't for Sun Jue's action, Rongcheng would have been lost.
So Qi Heng still sees it more accurately.
At this time, Rongcheng is already safe, and the Qi family's family business is in Qingdai County, and they must come back.
Even if Rongcheng may become the central point for the imperial court to recover other places in Zhuozhou in the future, with the current situation and the combat effectiveness shown by the forbidden army, there should not be many twists and turns.
The hardest bone to gnaw on lies in Fengzhou, the old nest of Taiping Road.
Toyosu and Zhuoshu are far apart, so there is no need to worry about being affected.
"Okay, Second Uncle Qi, don't worry, if you meet it, I will definitely give them the letter."
Sun Jue agreed, this was originally a incidental thing, and it didn't matter if you didn't have to spend time and energy to find someone.
"Thank you very much."
In these times of chaos, it is not easy to deliver letters.
Especially when you don't know the specific location, it is not easy to find dozens of people in a county.
Sun Jue waved his hand: "Second Uncle Qi, you are too polite, this is just a gesture." ”
The two talked again, and when they got the letter written by Qi Heng, Sun Jue left Qi Heng's residence.
Back at home, Sun Jue packed up his things.
There weren't too many, just a few bottles of elixir, a few changes of clothes, and a spirit beast-like egg, as well as two magic weapons.
Except for the spirit beast eggs, which are not easy to carry, the others are nothing.
Even if it is that magic sword, it only needs to be put on a scabbard, and ordinary people can't see any clues.
If someone can see the fame, then Sun Jue will save him from fishing.
Sun Jue came to the window, opened the window, and looked at Rongcheng, which was only lit up with stars outside, and couldn't help sighing.
"This Rongcheng is still very good, if it weren't for other things, it would still be okay to settle here for a few years."
"I can come back later."
Even if he was in Maple Village before, Sun Jue didn't have too many reluctant emotions.
After all, it was the predecessor who lived there for more than ten years, not him.
On the contrary, in this Rongcheng, Sun Jue has been here for a few months, and he has intersected with many people, especially the young lady of Yicuilou, who is really a little reluctant.
"Hire a carriage and we'll go early tomorrow."
Today's weather is getting hotter and hotter, although Sun Jue is not afraid, but he doesn't want to rush under the hot sun.
Therefore, the two time periods of morning and evening are good times to hurry.
Rumble!
At this time, a loud noise suddenly came, which made Sun Jue turn his head to look at the west with some surprise.
I saw that the rest assured, the aura of heaven and earth fluctuated violently, and the two powerful auras were even more undisguised.
"There's a master in the game? Strange ......"
Sun Jue frowned slightly, thinking about whether to go and have a look.
What is happening now is a bit strange.
You must know that there is only Guo Ming in Rongcheng, and now there may be two or three more masters in the forbidden army, but that's all.
Moreover, it is absolutely impossible for these people to make such a huge disturbance because of exchanges and the like.
This shows that these two people are foreigners.
Sun Jue suddenly remembered a possibility, and the curiosity in his heart inevitably rose.
"If it's really what I guessed, then I'm really going to confirm it today."
What happened now reminded Sun Jue of the earliest prophecy.
Although the second prophecy was not fulfilled because of his intervention.
But that doesn't mean the first prophecy was false.
"Hide your breath and see."
Sun Jue thought about it, but still planned to take a certain risk to take a look.
The reason is very simple, if it is really as predicted, then if there is a prophecy in the future, he can really use it as a reference.
Instead of being skeptical, as is the case now.
"Moreover, in the picture of the prophecy, the two figures seen, one is obviously at a disadvantage, and it seems to be being hunted down."
"If I can find out their identities first and get acquainted with one of them, then I don't have to think of looking for a needle in a haystack to find a disciple of the Immortal Sect."
No matter from which point of view, Sun Jue needs to take a look.
Although I thought about it a lot, it was just a few breaths of delay.
After Sun Jue made up his mind, he reined in his breath and walked towards the two breaths that were rapidly approaching Rongcheng.
With the help of the night, Sun Jue is hidden in the shadows, because of the blessing of the ever-changing magic method, even if someone sees it, they can't find Sun Jue's existence.
It didn't take long for Sun Jue to feel that he had come to the vicinity of those two breaths.
And his position at this time was also close to the West City Gate.
At this time, the defenders on the city tower had already attracted their attention by the huge movement, and even Sun Jue felt that there were several powerful auras and were rushing to this side at an extremely fast speed, including Guo Ming.
The other few people, although Sun Jue doesn't know who they are, are estimated to be masters in the forbidden army.
There is a high probability that I also heard the movement here, so I rushed over to check the situation.
At this moment, Sun Jue suddenly raised his head.
Then he saw two streamers, one in front of the other, and one of them crossed the top of his head, suddenly fell, and disappeared into the city.
Another streamer quickly followed, and then hovered over Rongcheng, probably looking for the whereabouts of the people in the pursuing streamer.
"Shi Yu, you'd better come out obediently, otherwise, don't blame me for slaughtering all the people in this city!"
The rolling sound spread so that the people of the entire city could hear it clearly.
From these obedient words, as well as that powerful aura, many ordinary people who were already insecure because of the previous Taiping Dao siege made them worried.
At this moment, a broken shout sounded: "Bold fanatics, dare to come to Rongcheng to spread wilderness, the whole army listens to the order and forms a formation!" ”
"Yes!"
With the sound of a neat response, the invisible military qi formed a barrier and shrouded the sky over Rongcheng.
At the same time, a dark red Menghu appeared in the sky above Rongcheng out of thin air.
A figure dressed in armor rose into the air, and it also landed on this dark red Menghu.
"Whew!"
With Menghu's roar, the invisible sound wave was like a substance, covering the streamer in the sky.
"Humph!"
The streamer revealed a figure, but it was a middle-aged man in a black robe, with a hooked nose and a gloomy face.
At this time, he stepped on a sword weapon at his feet, and looked at Menghu and the man in armor, and seemed to be a little jealous.
"The Blood Demon Sect is doing something, if you don't want to die, hurry up and get out of the way!"
Hearing this, the man riding on Menghu stared, but still said in a deep voice: "I don't care what Your Excellency wants to do, but this Rongcheng is not a place where you can go wild, if you don't retreat, don't blame me for being unkind!" ”
As the general of Zhengxi, the high-level of Dachang Kingdom naturally couldn't be unaware of the Blood Demon Sect.
Although he himself can't afford to provoke a big sect like the Blood Demon Sect, the Great Changguo behind him is backed by an immortal sect.
In addition, the immortal cultivation world originally had an agreement that he could not easily attack ordinary people, so he was not so afraid of this person.
The hook-nosed man seemed unwilling to retreat like this, or was stimulated by Kong Deyao's attitude.
"I don't know what to live or die!"
I saw that the hook-nosed man stretched out his hand, and the flying sword under his feet flew out directly, turning into a streamer that was difficult for ordinary people to see, and stabbed directly at Kong Deyao.
Although he knew that people in the Demon Dao were generally obedient people, Kong Deyao didn't expect that this person would actually say that he would do it, and he still wanted to kill him as soon as he made a move.
didn't take into account the rules of the immortal cultivation realm at all.
"How daring!"
Kong Deyao was the same as the dark red Menghu under him, his body was covered with a layer of dark red light, and his whole person seemed to be one with this Menghu, and the breath of the whole person skyrocketed.
He swung his spear in his hand.
In an instant, the surrounding heaven and earth aura seemed to be pulled by it, and with a loud bang, it accurately hit the flying sword.
Bang!
With a piercing collision sound, the flying sword was directly smashed to the ground, and the sword body was a little bent.
Kong Deyao's eyes lit up.
He originally thought that this person's strength had reached the Tiangang realm, and he felt that it would be difficult to deal with it today, but he didn't expect that this person was just an earth evil realm.
"It's just a hell of a place, you dare to spread wild here, you don't know whether you are alive or dead!"
After having the bottom in his heart, Kong Deyao had a little more confidence to speak.
If this person continues to attack, Kong Deyao doesn't mind slaughtering him with the help of military energy.
Anyway, even if the Blood Demon Sect behind him is investigated, it is his fault first.
Moreover, the Xianmen in Dachang Country are not vegetarians.
Kong Deyao swung his gun again, and the spear was extremely sharp, mixed with the dispersal effect of military qi on the aura of heaven and earth, and directly stabbed out.
Eagle hook nose's face was very ugly, he didn't expect that he would fall into the disadvantage with a single look.
He hurriedly pinched the trick, wanting to summon the flying sword on the ground to resist.
But it didn't work out.
At some point, his flying sword disappeared and contact with him was severed.
"What's going on?"
Eagle Hooknose wanted to vomit blood in his heart, so he could only hastily form a shield with the evil qi in his body to resist.
Then it was directly shot hundreds of meters away.
"Today's hatred, I will repay it a hundred times in the future!"
After leaving a sentence, adhering to the concept that heroes do not suffer immediate losses, the hooked nose turned into a streamer and disappeared into the sky.
Kong Deyao didn't chase after him.
He glanced down, and there was nothing left where the flying sword had been.
"Strange, could it be that his opponent snatched the flying sword?"
Kong Deyao sensed it carefully, but did not find the target.
Shaking his head, he wasn't going to worry about it.
Today's events, if it weren't for the hook nose who said that he was going to slaughter the city, he might have watched from the wall.
Originally, this matter was none of his business, and there was no need to meddle.
Later, I had to take action, lest this hooked nose come to the real thing.
As for who is being hunted down, he doesn't bother to care, as long as he doesn't do anything bad.
After thinking about it, Kong Deyao said loudly: "Rongcheng is my Dachang territory, and those who dare to invade will be punished!" ”
These words were spoken both to appease the people of the city and to the man who was hunted down.
After speaking, the dark red Menghu dissipated and returned into an invisible military aura.
This method of using military energy is not something that anyone can use.
In addition to mastering the corresponding secret method, it is also necessary to have a person.
In Dachang Kingdom, only those who have obtained the position of general will be granted the secret method, and their personality is just enough to support.
And like the county lieutenant, theoretically the personality is enough, but in fact it is still a little worse.
Of course, as a town guard, the county guard in charge of the power of the military formation is enough, and it only depends on whether his ability to command troops is qualified.
Sun Jue, who was hidden in the shadows, looked at the flying sword in his hand and smiled slightly.
Then he looked in one direction and hid in the shadows again.
The injured guy, you can touch it.
