Chapter 44: Laying Out the Valley of the Wolf's Teeth
"Your Highness is gracious. Another voice rang out, sounding a little grim.
Luo Fan also smiled lightly: "Brother Qingfeng came to Nankou Town, is it polite for Luo Fan to pick up the wind for his brother?"
"There are three people in total, two spirit masters, and one spirit king. Jian Jiu said.
Xie Chen nodded lightly, the two spirit masters were naturally Luo Fan and Xie Qingfeng, and the spirit king should be the white-clothed eagle king who had always been inseparable from Luo Fan. Listening to the tone of his words, Xie Qingfeng should have just arrived in Nankou Town, and Luo Fan was already here.
This place should not stay for a long time! Xie Chen's mind was racing, and he immediately reached out to grab the clothes that were placed aside. All three of them knew themselves, and if they were found alive, they would definitely cause a lot of trouble. Even if the matter of the spirit bead is not suspected of his head, he will inevitably be brought back to the family again.
But Xie Chen's hand just touched the clothes, but he was attracted by a sentence next door.
"Your Highness, Xie Qingfeng came here this time to want His Highness to help me achieve a big thing. In the next room, Xie Qingfeng got straight to the point and said directly.
"Oh?" Luo Fan's eyes flashed, and then he glanced at the Eagle King beside him. The white-clothed eagle king immediately understood, and the powerful spiritual power spread rapidly, enveloping the room where the three of them were in an instant, and the sound in the room disappeared instantly.
Big deal? Xie Chen frowned slightly, with his spiritual sense, he couldn't hear what was being said next door. But there is a faint curiosity, what big deal can these two people get together?
"Jian Jiu, listen to what they are saying. ”
"Okay, introduce your spirit into the dantian, and the old man will help you. "In the dantian, Jian Jiu has quietly broken through the spiritual power defense of the white-clothed eagle king. The voice next door was clear again.
In the private room next door, Xie Qingfeng took off the hood on his head and said, "Your Highness must also know that my second brother Xie Qingyang is going to come to Nankou Town to garrison before he is done." ”
Luo Fan smiled and nodded, "Yes, this time the children of the Four Holy Lands have entered the world, and they have really been busy with the major families in the kingdom." ”
The corners of Xie Qingfeng's mouth lifted slightly, "Your Highness knows that what I said is not what I meant. ”
"Then I don't know what Brother Breeze means?"
Xie Qingfeng was obviously not in the mood to set up a dragon gate formation with Luo Fan, a touch of murder flashed in his eyes, and he said bluntly: "This time, no matter what, I can't let Xie Qingyang go back alive!"
"What does Brother Qingfeng mean?" Luo Fan frowned, and then said, "Could it be that the situation of the Xie family is so grim now?!"
Xie Qingfeng nodded, there was a hint of helplessness in his words, "I don't know what method Xie Qingyang used, Xie Tuo's kid actually defended him everywhere." Now that the family's southern courtyard is getting bigger and bigger day by day, if it weren't for His Royal Highness secretly helping me restrain Xie Qingyang, I'm afraid my northern courtyard would be unable to withstand it now!
Hearing this, Xie Chen couldn't help but secretly wonder, hasn't Luo Fan always been very close to Xie Qingyang? But why does it sound like the relationship between Xie Qingfeng and Luo Fan is even closer? Could it be that these two have already been secretly married?!
Soon, Xie Chen got the answer.
On the other side, Luo Fan smiled and said: "Brother Qingfeng should have done this a long time ago, I have already said that Xie Qingyang is a scheming person, and he will become a big trouble." Now that Brother Qingfeng has finally made up his mind, I am also deeply grateful, little brother! I wonder what Brother Qingfeng needs me to do?"
When Xie Qingfeng heard Luo Fan's words, he couldn't help but soften his face slightly, and said in a deep voice: "This time, Xie Qingyang came to Nankou Town, and he brought a lot of family guards, in addition to the people of his Southern Courtyard headquarters, the family also sent two Spirit Venerables to accompany him. The strength of my North Courtyard is not enough to intercept and kill ......."
"Understood!" Luo Fan nodded and said, "However, this time the matter is not trivial, and I and the Eagle King must not show up." In addition, how about I help Brother Qingfeng's Iron Blood Battalion with 300 elites, 20 spirit masters, 10 spirit masters, plus four great spirit masters and three spirit masters?"
"That's enough!" Xie Qingfeng's eyes gradually lit up, "With the help of His Royal Highness, I will let Xie Qingyang come and go!"
Luo Fan nodded, suddenly remembered something again, frowned, and said, "If Xie Tuo comes together this time......
"Hmph!" Xie Qingfeng snorted coldly and said categorically: "Kill together! Even if he is a family genius, since he is not used by me, it is a scourge to keep it! Hasn't he always missed Xie Chen very much? Then I will let the two of them meet under Jiuquan!"
"Hehe, Brother Qingfeng really acted decisively, and the younger brother admires it!Come, I wish Brother Qingfeng success this time!" Luo Fan smiled when he heard this, and picked up his wine glass.
Xie Qingfeng also had a smile on his face, raised his glass and said: "Your Highness, rest assured, when I have no opponent in the family and get the right to speak, I will definitely use the strength of the entire family to help His Highness win the crown prince in one fell swoop!
"So, I'll thank you first!hahahaha......"
The two laughed loudly and drank the wine from their glasses. Next, the details of the operation began to be discussed.
"Let's go. After listening for a while, Xie Chen withdrew the power of his divine soul, stood up, and quietly went out. By the time he left the Tianfu Tower, his face had become extremely gloomy.
Stepping on the horse, Xie Chen slowly urged the horse forward. It wasn't until I got out of Nankou Town that I went all the way north on the official road, whistling away against the north wind!
"Do you want to tell Xie Qingyang about this? You must know that in the eyes of your people, I am afraid that you will be a dead man long ago. Inside his body, Jian Jiu slowly spoke.
Xie Chen kept beating his horse forward, shook his head and said, "I just want to confirm whether Xie Tuo is coming with me." If Xie Tuo is here, I naturally can't stand idly by. ”
Jian Jiu smiled: "My Lord of the Sword, I'm afraid Xie Tuo is not here, you won't just forget it, right?"
Xie Chen smiled awe-inspiringly, "You still know me." The infighting in the family has nothing to do with me, but if anyone wants to be unfavorable to Xie Tuo, it is to be my enemy!"
"Besides......" A chilling killing intent swept through Xie Chen's eyes! Sen Ran's voice was instantly annihilated in the north wind: "Dragon Slaying Knife, it's time to see blood!"
Inside the dantian, when Jian Jiu heard this, he stroked his beard and laughed: "That's right! If the mad sword doesn't dance with the blood, wouldn't it be a pearl secretly cast?!"
The north wind howled like a knife, blowing all Xie Chen's hair and swaying with the wind. One man and one horse, galloping against the wind, waving up billowing smoke and dust.
A day later, a hundred miles north of Nankou Town, on the official road, a horse team of more than 100 people slowly moved forward. Directly in front of the horse team, a flag fluttered high. The black characters on the red background are particularly conspicuous, so that people can see the word "thanks" on the flag from afar!
This is exactly the team that the Xie clan sent to Nankou Town to garrison. This time, the children of the Four Holy Lands entered the WTO, and all the countries in the Central Plains took action. As the cornerstone of various countries, the major families have naturally sent family members one after another. Xie Qingfeng and Xie Qingyang, brothers, are one of them.
As Jian Jiu said, this kind of patrol is just a situation. So Xie Qingyang is not in a hurry, not to mention, there are still his own "allies" in Nankou Town, and the second prince Luo Fan led the elite of the Iron Blood Battalion to garrison. Xie Qingyang is naturally even more fearless, and the right to be regarded as a trip to relax.
How many pedestrians on the official road didn't know the name of the Xie family? As soon as they saw that it was the Xie family's team, they immediately gave way to both sides and let the Xie family's team pass.
No one noticed that among the pedestrians who were avoiding on the side of the road, a young man in a black brocade robe was silently watching the team. His eyes swept over the faces of the Xie family members one by one, and he looked very serious.
"There are a total of one hundred and seven people, two Spiritual Venerables, five Great Spiritual Masters, ten Spiritual Masters, and twenty Spiritual Scholars. Xie Tuo was not in the team. Jian Jiu was the first to come to a conclusion.
Xie Chen nodded, and after some observations, except for some familiar faces such as Xie Qingyang, he did not find Xie Tuo's figure. Obviously, as the genius of the family, Xie Tuo was not sent out to participate in the patrol this time.
Slowly relieved in his heart, Xie Chen turned around without a trace, suddenly accelerated, overtook Xie Qingyang's team, and galloped straight to the Wolf's Tooth Valley, thirty miles to the south.
According to the information Xie Chen heard, the place where Xie Qingfeng and Luo Fan planned to do it was the Wolf Tooth Valley!
When Xie Chen rushed to the Wolf's Tooth Valley, he saw only a few secret sentinels disguising as ordinary people wandering outside the valley, and Xie Qingfeng and Luo Fan's brigade had obviously not arrived yet.
Abandoning his mount, with the help of Jian Jiu, Xie Chen easily avoided the dark whistle, walked through the dense forest, and found a place with an excellent view above the Wolf's Tooth Valley to sit down.
According to Xie Qing's speed of raising them, it is estimated that it will be almost dusk when they arrive in the Valley of Wolf Teeth. During this time, Xie Chen was just recuperating, and by the way, he observed Xie Qingfeng's layout.
About an hour after Xie Chen chose a location, in the south of the Wolf's Tooth Valley, Xie Qingfeng's men and horses also arrived.
This time, Xie Qingfeng can be said to be fully prepared, almost all the masters of the North Courtyard have been mobilized, and there is even a strong family spirit venerable with whom he has a good friendship. Coupled with the more than 300 people sent by Luo Fan to help, a group of nearly 600 people, divided into more than a dozen waves, sneaked into the predetermined location in the Wolf's Tooth Valley.
The Valley of the Wolf's Tooth is a valley about three miles long. The official road of the Tianluo Kingdom runs through the canyon, and the valley is surrounded by cliffs tens of meters high on both sides.
Although at the time of the war between the national armies, such small canyons were of little strategic significance. However, if it is an ambush for passing merchants, or a small group of people, it is the best choice.
Xie Qingfeng's layout this time was very thorough, not only did he have heavy troops at the two valley passes. Moreover, on the cliffs on both sides, the strong bows and crossbows of the iron-blooded battalion were arranged to prevent the strong people on the other side from jumping directly onto the cliffs on both sides to escape.
Xie Chen was in the middle of the valley, and not far in front of him, dozens of iron-blooded battalion crossbowmen in civilian clothes were quietly hiding.
Xie Chen squinted his eyes and looked at the ambush soldiers around the valley with interest, scattering like ants, and instantly disappeared into the rocks and trees. A sneer couldn't help but appear on his lips, "With such a careful deployment, it seems that Xie Qingfeng doesn't plan to let anyone go back alive." ”
