In a few days, the escort team of the Heavenly Hell Sect will set off. Although it is not completely ready, the news is getting worse and worse, there are people around the manor who are constantly inquiring about the news, there are the government's fast arrests, there are also the secret posts of the mountain bandits, and there are many idle people who can't tell the door, Zhao Zifeng has a big deal, and decided to leave immediately.
In the front, Liu Feng and other inner disciples opened the way, Zhao Zifeng personally sat in the center, and in the back, it was still the war boy and Amos who pressed the team.
The thirty-two outer disciples were all replaced with ghost-headed broadswords, and they were all majestic, making people dare not squint. The two teams were still led by War Boys, with Amos taking care of them.
Only two days after leaving the city, Amos had an instinct for danger. Looking back, there were some people in the distance, walking and stopping, hanging behind them. The news from the front was not easy, and the senior brothers who opened the road also encountered some obstacles, and the originally flat official road was often dug by people or blocked by trees. Uncle Zhao Zifeng asked everyone to raise their vigilance.
The Heavenly Hell Sect had a lot of baggage on this trip, and it took more than 20 days to come, and the return trip was estimated to take two months. It's going to go all the way, and if you run into bandits, you don't know what to do.
Along the way, Amos also further saw the deep roots of the Heavenly Hell Sect. Every time I go to a city or a county, there are people from the government to greet and see them off, and those military attachés go to Zhao Zifeng to greet and offer gifts, these places, there are former disciples of the Heavenly Hell Sect everywhere, and the friendship between the teachers and the disciples is still there, and they take care of each other.
But the closer to the Heavenly Hell Sect, the tighter the situation in the Great Yue Kingdom, although there were more disciples in the official mansion, it could not relieve the pressure on Zhao Zifeng's heart. Because, everyone got the news that the old emperor of the dynasty had died. And the eldest prince, the third prince, the fourth prince and the eleventh prince did not let anyone on the throne, and the war had already burned from the capital of Da Yue.
Before the emperor's death, the third prince intended to lead the army into Beijing, but was intercepted outside the Shili Pavilion. And the eleventh prince even commanded half of the Imperial Forest Army to close the imperial city, and was scolded by the mothers. The four princes united with the ministers and forced the palace to ask the emperor to pass on the edict, and they were defiled as disobedient people. And that night, after the eldest prince entered the palace, the emperor died, and everyone was suspicious. As a result, none of the princes were able to ascend to the throne, and the flames of war ignited.
As soon as the war was over, the power of the government was immediately weakened, and there was infighting between the officials and the army, and no one had time to take care of the convoy of the Heavenly Hell Sect. Zhao Zifeng was in a hurry, and on the one hand, he was anxious to the teacher, and on the other hand, he urged to speed up.
But in this way, some of the previous arrangements were abolished, and in the past they could always stop in the city or in the big towns, so in a hurry, sometimes they missed the camp and camped in the wilderness.
War Boy and Amos's rear team was very tired, and they had to enter the camp late every day, and they had to be in charge of the back sentry, and they couldn't sleep for a few hours a day. The war boy was worried about the morale of the team, and insisted on practicing the basic skills together in the morning every day, but the battle at night was temporarily stopped, and he had to rush to cook and eat at that time, and change posts in shifts.
The night sentry Amos took all of them, and he could carry them with him every night when he was practicing. Day after day, Amos did not feel so tired, and let the war boy marvel at how lame the man was.
As usual, Amos had eaten, arranged for the sentry to be on duty, and walked far to the rear himself, serving as a message tree for early warning.
The moonlight was bright, and Amos quietly absorbed the natural divine power of heaven and earth. The kamikaze swirled gently, sucking more divine power into his body, refining his flesh and bones. A few days ago, the matter of driving the magic weapon gave him a revelation, and now every time he compresses it through the divine wind whirlwind, and then infuses the divine power into the body, the effect is very good, and the tempered muscles want to hum comfortably.
The surrounding natural divine power moved, and began to dance chaotically, and Amos knew that someone had sneaked over. In the past, when cultivating in the mountains and forests, if a wild beast passed by, the point of divine power firelight would also begin to be disordered. Amos didn't know where the visitor had crept in, but he immediately lay down and got ready.
Amos struggled to block out his voice, like a frightened hare. The black cord was quietly untied from his waist and stretched out in a comfortable place. The spirit is highly concentrated, trying to sense the source of fluctuations in the natural divine power of heaven and earth, and estimating the distance of the incoming person.
Closer, closer, Amos recognized. Ten zhang, five zhang, three zhang, Amos opened his one eye and tried to find it. In the moonlight, a faint shadow lurked, and the weeds that passed by seemed to be untouched.
What a powerful stealth skill! Amos was secretly shocked in his heart, how could such a master come to be an enemy of the Heavenly Hell Sect? It seems that this trip is full of dangers.
Amos held his breath and hid his figure in the grass, waiting for the lurking night walker to take the bait.
The man seemed to be alerted to some danger, and even stopped, crouching silently.
"Brush!", the night walker suddenly threw something at Amos's side, so frightened that Amos almost jumped up, but fortunately he saw that the landing point was a little big, so he couldn't help it. If Amos's ears were good, he would definitely not grit his teeth and insist, and the man raised his voice and said, "Brother, this stealth skill is good, and he was almost blinded. Come out, I see you!"
Unable to hear him, Amos dodged the tricks of the stalker and continued to lurk. The night walker shook his head suspiciously, and brushed his body lightly, shining his back to Amos in the grass and Black Cord on the ground.
Seeing that he had entered the ambush circle, Amos moved his wrist, and the snake-like black cord shook straight and stabbed at the neck of the night walker. The whip bent slightly, and it was directly strangled up.
The night walker was caught off guard, and with a flick of his hand, a cold light flashed on his hand, and he cut the black cord around his neck.
Magic weapon-level black rope, that is what mortals can cut off? Amos took the lead, pulled the whip tightly, and continued to wrap the long black rope around his body with an oolong skein.
The Night Walker was agile and flashed the long whip behind him, but the noose around his neck became tighter and tighter, and he became more and more breathless.
Amos didn't dare to be careless, and once the dragon whip method was cast, he just didn't let the night walker slow down. And the tenacity of Black Rope was also unexpected, and the Night Walkers tried to make a desperate attempt several times, completely ignoring Amos's fists and kicks, and concentrated on sharpening the long whip, but he never could cut it.
Looking at the fainting night walker, Amos flashed past the other party and threw a life-for-life dagger, and let out a long breath. This first secular battle turned out not badly.
Binding the night walker with a black rope, and picking up the dagger in a daze, Amos dragged the man back to the camp.
After receiving the signal, the war boy quickly came to answer it, and when he saw the night walker who was tied like a dumpling, he was very happy to take over the interrogation. It's a job that Amos can't do.
As a result, the war boy was dumbfounded, this guy turned out to be Jiao Shenfu, the notorious "shadowless man" of Dayue Kingdom. This person is very good at lurking, and he has entered the palace three times at night without anyone noticing, and he has entered and exited the eunuch's house as if he were walking on the ground. The government once sent eighteen arresters to join forces to find it, but he sneaked into the prison and rescued the boss of Black Tiger Mountain, "Crane in the Clouds" Meng Weijun. This time it fell into the hands of this cripple, it was really shit luck.
Amos just thought that the dagger was good, so he took it away as a trophy, and the war boy took Jiao Shenfu to Zhao Zifeng to ask for credit.
