War horse Xiao Xiao, gust of wind hunting, Wu Gen stood on the mountain road next to Shixing Village, looking at the village hanging halfway up the mountain, and couldn't help but feel a little emotional. When I first came to Kuntianzhou, my first stop was here. It's like a baby croaking to the ground, watching it get upstairs, add ding, and grow little by little.

For Shixing Village, Wu Gen has actually regarded it as a Dafeng Village in his heart. Now he left suddenly, went away from home, and said that he was not nostalgic, it was false.

This time, the team chose to leave from Siheung Village, mainly because it was relatively secluded, so as not to be targeted. As the number of dreadnoughts increases, there may be spies from other families, so it's better to be cautious.

Yang Zheng hadn't come back yet, and Wu Yan had already made an appointment with Chu Xi to establish contact with Lingyun Village when he settled down. When Yang Zheng and the others came back, Chu Xi sent someone to send them over.

"Let's go back." Wu Yan sat on the horse and waved at Chu Xi and the others who saw them off, "Seeing off thousands of miles must be goodbye in the end." I'm sure it won't be long before we'll be back. ”

The secret guard token of the school desk has been handed over to Chu Xi, in case something happens, it is better to use the power of the Ascending Heaven Hall to resist one or two. Wu Yan didn't believe it, could it be that the Black Tower family dared to refute the face of the Heavenly Palace.

"Take care." Chu Xi led everyone to bow their hands. Wu Gen also solemnly returned the salute, "Go." As he spoke, he turned the horse's head, raised the whip in his hand, and took the lead in riding the horse. The rumbling sound of horses' hooves sounded, and the procession gradually disappeared into the mountains amid the farewell of everyone.

According to the map given by Yu Hao, there are two roads to Tieshou Province: the Middle Road and the East Road. There are many big roads in the middle, and people and horses are easy to pass, but the disadvantage is that there are too many families, and there are 27 large and small families along the way. Which of these houses doesn't like Wu Gan, just come here, maybe you can make Wu Gan unable to eat and walk around.

The east road is mountainous, and there are several large rivers to block it, and there are relatively few families here, but the road is really difficult to walk, and this is the one Wu Gen chooses at present.

There are only more than 100 people, and the goal is not big, and these people, under the leadership of Xue Xin, take the route of elite soldiers, and train troops in the mountains all year round, and it is not difficult for them to cross the mountains and mountains.

Why are there only these two roads, in fact, this is due to the strange terrain of the Iron Hand Province. It is a long strip of boundaries, less than 800 li from the border with Bailing Province. Therefore, the route of Wu's march was to the northeast as a whole, from the junction of the two provinces into the Tieshou Province.

In fact, there is another road for Wu Gen to choose, that is, to go all the way east, enter Shule Province, and then turn north along the river.

It's a difficult path at first, but the further back you go, the easier it becomes. It's just that when it comes to other provinces, Wu Gen doesn't want to involve more forces, so the situation will be very troublesome. Moreover, according to Yu Hao, there is something wrong with Shule Province and Tieshou Province, and it is not asking for trouble to use their roads.

Walking on the mountain road, Wu Jian let go and let Xue Xin have full authority to command the troops. The Lingyun Eight Cavalry all went out to spy on the surrounding terrain and military information, so as not to collide head-on with some families.

After walking for seven days, the group had already crossed half of the Zuoheng Road site. Along the way, there were no conflicts with various families, but there were many disputes with some scattered tribes and bandits.

In the mountains, there are many places that the families cannot really govern, and there are not many of them, but they are like mosquitoes and flies, and they are very annoying.

On this day, Wu Gen was resting in a captured village.

This is a small remote village, the herdsmen in the village are also people and bandits, seeing Zhuo Ke walking alone, he rushed up and was about to be arrested, just when he was seen by Wu Gan, who rushed over. In a fit of rage, Wu Gen led people into the stockade and used this place as a place for himself to rest.

Beside him, there was a capable young man in his twenties, who was aggrievedly pouring wine for Wu Gan.

The young man's name was Sogi, and he had erected this little village. When he entered the stockade, the man saw that he could not resist, so he turned around and ran to the woods behind the stockade. While running, he blew his whistle, and a sharp whistle came out, and a large number of rats and ants poured out from the forest, attacking Wu Gan's people desperately.

None of these things are powerful, but if there are too many of them, it will be quite disgusting, and they can't be killed, and they can't be driven away, and Wu Gan's people and horses are embarrassed by these little things.

After being provoked by several ants one after another, Wu Jian finally couldn't help it and chased directly into the forest. When it comes to running away, there are not many people in the world who can compare to him. Soon, Wu Gan walked out of the forest with Suoji and ordered him to drive away these rats and ants, and he was born.

The journey has been hard in the past few days, so Wu Jian asked Xue Xin to greet his subordinates and rest in this small village for a few days.

was drinking, but the one in his hand moved a few times restlessly. This insect is the earth dragon that accompanied Wu Gen to the catastrophe that day, after all, they have walked through the field of life and death together, and Wu Gen took it with him on this trip. Xu was robbed by thunder and opened up some wisdom, but he was also obedient to Wu Gan.

This insect has a very warm and cool body, and when he is usually fine, Wu Yan will put it by his side to go to the heat. Moreover, it is very sensitive to the vibration underground, and the slightest movement will warn, so Wu Jian also uses it as a sentry.

After a while, Harry Eagle rode his horse and hurried in from outside the stockade. When he arrived in front of Wu Gan, he glanced at Suo Ji, who was squatting on the side to serve, and Ha Yingyu reported: "My lord, fifty miles away from here, I found traces of a large number of cavalry, which should be from the Heita family. ”

Wu Yan sat up from the recliner suddenly, "You can see it clearly." ”

"There should be nothing wrong with it, looking at its posture, it is the cavalry of its own family, not a random conscription of various small families." Ha Ying wiped the sweat from his forehead and squatted beside Wu Yan with a horsewhip.

"How many people." Wu Gen then asked.

"There are about 200 people in front of me, I don't dare to get too close, but from a distance, behind this group, there is smoke and dust flying, it should also be from the Heita family." Ha Ying knew that the stakes were high, and his expression was also a little nervous.

Wu Gan's face was a little ugly, if it was a person from the Black Tower family, why did he run so far away. It is more than 1,000 miles away from Gaoyuan City, and the road is long, trekking through mountains and rivers, what is worth running all the way to the Black Tower family. The biggest possibility is that I still came for myself. This also means that the news of his departure was finally leaked out.

As for who leaked it, Wu Gen can't track it down now. Now there are more than 8,000 people in the three strongholds, and it is really not difficult for the other party to install a detailed work. Taking away so many backbones at once, it will definitely attract people with a heart to investigate, which is also a helpless thing.

However, he has been away for so many days, and the talents of the Heta family have caught up, and he should not be a core person. Otherwise, I would have met someone from the Black Tower family soon after I traveled, instead of waiting until now.

Chu Xi Wu Yan was not worried, there was a sign of the Ascending Heaven Palace, and the Black Tower family should not be so short-sighted.

Then, the Heita family should have learned the news that they were leaving Bailing Province, so they hurriedly sent troops from their own family to intercept them, and wanted to intercept themselves in the wilderness. At the same time, in order to prevent the news from leaking, there was no order to let the small families along the way block it.

"Are you here for this, but it's all heavy armor." Wu Yan lay back down, his fingers lightly tapping on the armrest.

Ha Ying was a little surprised by Wu Gan's reaction, "No, I took a look at the direction of these people, and they didn't come here." He was also wearing ordinary armor, which was supposed to be convenient for traveling in the mountains. ”

Wu Yan nodded, thinking about the terrain ahead marked on the map. Further on, there is Kejing Pass, which is located in the middle of the stone mountain.

In this mountainous and unpreoccupied place, there is only one way for a horse team to pass. That also means that if they really came to get their own, the Heita family must not have found their traces yet, and they just wanted to go to Kejing Pass as soon as possible and block the only passage.

After thinking for a while, Wu Yan sighed slightly, at this time, it was too late for him to take people to Kejing Pass, and he would not be able to collide head-on with the light horse of the Black Tower family. With only 100 or so people, the casualties in the fight must have been heavy.

"Let's stay in this stockade just yet. Tell Xue Xin to strengthen vigilance, and at the same time send more scouts to find out how many people from the Heita family are here and where they are going. Wu Yan lay down on the chair and commanded slowly.

"Why don't you go, the owner of the village, what if they find out here." Ha Ying was a little anxious.

"It's hard to be sure now whether the other party is coming at us, if it's just passing by, if it's really coming to encircle and suppress us, now going to Kejing Pass can only be a desperate fight, and it can't be done, it's better to stay here and wait for the changes." First send a letter to Chu Xi and them, and say that the stronghold has a detailed work. Wu Yan sighed, there is really no good way to do it right now, is it difficult to go back.

Ha Ying thought about it, nodded and got up to find Xue Xin. At this moment, Suo Ji, who was silent on the side, suddenly spoke: "Two adults, you are going to Kejing Pass. ”

Wu Gen turned his head in surprise and looked at the little village owner who had been in a low mood, "Yes, is it possible that you want to report to the Heita family." ”

Suo Ji hurriedly waved his hand again and again, and said with a smile on his face: "How can Suo Ji have the guts, even if he reports to others, he will not be able to benefit from it." I was a wanted fugitive, so I had no choice but to hide here, and I pulled a group of people to barely get by, and ran to the house of Heta, didn't I ask for hardship.

In the past few days, after the adults arrived here, they did not embarrass the villain and his subordinates too much, and the little ones were very grateful, and they did not have any resentment towards the adults.

Therefore, when I heard that the adult was blocked by the Black Tower family, the little one dared to say that in fact, if you go further, there is not only the road of Kejingguan. There is also a small road that does not pass through Kejing Pass, but the road is a little difficult to walk. ”

"Oh." Wu Gen had a little more smile on his face, and looked at the other party with a smile, "How to go this way." ”

"My lord, this road is a convenient road for the local mountain people, because the road is not easy to walk and is located in the deep mountains, so many outsiders do not know about it. There are only more than 100 adults, but they can take this road to bypass Kejing Pass. Sogi pointed to the distance and signaled the direction of the road, "If the adults are not at ease, the small ones can lead the way themselves." ”

"Why help us." Wu Jian put his hands behind his back and looked directly at the other party.

"Whoever goes against the Black Tower, I'll help whomever I want." Undeterred, Sogi said loudly.
