Chapter 108: Yan City
In a mountain forest more than thirty miles away from the capital, Fang Yun saw Zhou Xin and several scholars. They hid in the grass with their horses in their hands.
"Brother Fang. Zhou Xin strode over and handed the reins of one of the horses to Fang Yun.
"Little Hou Ye. Several scholars who were traveling with Zhou Xin said respectfully.
All seven men survived the Bahrain mines, slave revolts, and slave revolts. Whether it was in the Bahrain mine, Fang Yun's strength to deal with the crisis calmly and bring everyone out of danger, or the courage of going to the capital and the three halls of trial, Fang Yun's courage in openly impeaching the heroic Marquis Yang Hong made these scholars extremely admired, so they unanimously decided to follow Fang Yun and join the army together.
Fang Yun took the reins from Zhou Xin's hand, glanced at the seven people, and said in a deep voice:
"Zhou Xin should have already told you that there will be certain dangers in joining the army. It's not a matter of months and months, but of years or even more than a decade. There is a certain chance that you will never return to the capital. ”
"Little Hou Ye, we all understand this. The battlefield is ruthless, and life and death are conceited!"
A slender man with bright eyes said in a loud voice.
"Little Hou Ye, we all understand. The others nodded as well.
"Good. What's your name?" Fang Yun pointed to the person who spoke at the beginning.
"Back to the little marquis, I'm Chu madness!" Chu madness saluted and said respectfully.
"The seven of you, in the future, you will be headed by Chu Mad as the leader. Everyone has read the Art of War, and everyone should understand the meaning of the four words "order and prohibition". After leaving here, I ask all of you to obey my commands, and to do the four words of the command. To put it simply, you will be my personal soldiers and confidants in the future. **Later, if you are crowned a king and a marquis, you will naturally not be treated badly. ”
"Little Marquis, we understand. ”
All seven of them bowed their heads and assumed a respectful gesture to actually show their choice. Fang Yun's status was much superior to theirs. Even if you don't follow Fang Yun today, you will inevitably have to obey other people's orders. It's their fate, there's not much difference.
"That's for the best. I won't say anything superfluous. Take the seven of you out today. I hope that in a few years, I will be able to bring a few of you back with me!
A group of nine men stepped on the fierce horse, and with a wave of the whip, they immediately rode westward. The path of life immediately diverges in this.
Riding alone is much more convenient than riding in a horse-drawn carriage. As long as it is a road, you can walk it, and you can enter the woods and mountains.
Fang Yun led a few people not to take the avenue, but directly crossed the mountains and headed west.
Everyone brought a little dry food with them, and after the grain was eaten, they hunted foxes and roe deer on the spot, and roasted them on a fire to eat.
More than a month later, the group finally arrived at the residence of Feng Ninghou, Yan Cheng.
Yancheng is located in the western part of the Great Zhou Dynasty, adjacent to the sea. Unlike other cities in the Great Zhou, Yancheng looked dilapidated and gray, completely lacking the riches of the rest of the Great Zhou.
"Is this Yan Cheng?" several scholars followed Fang Yun and walked down the mossy bluestone street. Unbelievable.
The Great Zhou Dynasty was rich and peaceful, and everyone was dressed in fine clothes, but the people here were wearing linen clothes, and more importantly, these people were lifeless and had no vitality.
"Nothing strange. The people here used to be criminals in various provinces and provinces, Liu Fang and Fa were assigned here to serve hard labor, and when they encountered the amnesty of the imperial court, they became good citizens, and later lived here. Merchants pursued profits, this was originally a bitter cold place, and overseas, tens of thousands of miles away is the Vedic continent, which is known as a barren continent. Naturally, businessmen are reluctant to come to this kind of place. Without merchants, it would only be poorer and poorer. ”
Fang Yun led the horse and explained as he walked forward. Before he came, he had already collected a lot of information and knew something about Yan Cheng.
A few people think about it, except for the exiled and distributed criminals, who else here wants to come over.
Fang Yun also felt quite weird, Feng Ninghou was elegant and graceful when he was young, he could be said to be a gentleman, but he didn't expect that after becoming a prince, he actually changed his habits and ran to this kind of bitter cold place to guard.
"Let's go. ”
The entire Yan City is a huge barracks, and the one who controls this huge barracks is a metal hall in the city of Yancheng. Feng Ning Hou Lan Alum lives in it.
"Go in, Master Hou is waiting for you inside. A moment later, the guard came out and preached.
Fang Yun and his party entered the main hall through the mermaids.
The main hall was a little dark, and the sides were full of captains, governors, generals, and generals. These people all gathered together, as if discussing something. Seeing Fang Yun and the others coming in, they all swept their eyes over. Zhou Xin and the others immediately felt an invisible pressure pressing from all sides, and they immediately struggled and slowed down a lot.
"Fang Yun has seen Master Hou!"
Fang Yunshen walked to the front of the main hall on foot, and said to the man in Confucian clothes sitting on the metal throne at the top of the main hall.
The man in the main hall has a dignified appearance, a majestic demeanor, and a strong military and princely atmosphere. But his skin is extremely white, and his chin has three strands of black beard, and in his majesty, he exudes a Confucian demeanor. The two completely different breaths are perfectly combined in this person, giving people a feeling of Confucianism.
On the way to martial arts, the higher the cultivation, the stronger the breath. Cultivating to reach the level of courage, he immediately breathes like thunder, and when he reaches the realm of Yang Hong, it is like the emperor of heaven descending into the world, and his breath is just to yang, and he is extremely domineering.
However, this Feng Ning Hou was just a few feet away in front of Fang Yun, but there was not a trace of aura on his body. It seems that he is really a Confucian student, like a military general.
"Among the princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is estimated that only this Marquis of Feng Ning has this ability. actually relied on a Confucian aura to cover up the aura of a martial artist on his body. ”
Fang Yun was secretly frightened. I can hide my breath. Either there is some treasure such as a hidden breath bead on his body, or it is Feng Ninghou's cultivation, which is really terrifying.
Fang Yun's mind moved, and he immediately cast the Hope Qi Method. In the blink of an eye, when he opened it again, he immediately saw a red jīng mang, which shrouded most of the hall, erupting from Feng Ninghou's body, and shaking the sky. This jīng mangs even spread outward, enveloping the entire hall in a dense red sè.
"This Feng Ninghou!"
Fang Yun was shocked, and his luck was red, which was a symbol of the prince. This jīng mang, even if it is placed in the princes of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is extremely impressive.
"Feng Ninghou has such strength, but he is in a corner. Suppressing this poor place. The so-called big is hidden in the court, and the small is hidden in the wild. Feng Ninghou made it clear that he didn't want to get involved in any struggle. ”
Fang Yun glanced at Feng Ninghou thoughtfully.
"You are Fang Yunjiao," Feng Ning Hou Lan Alum spoke at this time, when Fang Yun looked forward to the Qi Method, Feng Ning Hou had a sense, and a strange light flashed in his eyes: "Li Yi's letter, on his body?"
Feng Ninghou's moaning is mellow and calm, giving people a feeling of not fighting with others.
"It's still there. ”
Fang Yun immediately took out Li Yi's letter, and a guard on the side immediately took it and handed it over.
All the captains, governors, and generals in the hall changed their faces as early as when they heard Fang Yun's words.
The three sessions of the trial and the impeachment of Wuhou have already caused a lot of uproar. I'm afraid that the champion of Da Zhou is not as famous as Fang Yun at the moment.
"Hmm. Feng Ninghou opened the letter of recommendation, just glanced at it a few times, and immediately put it down.
"Your strength is more than enough to be a school captain, but the rules of the court cannot be abolished. Come on, take him to Lieutenant Ye Wang's place to report!"
Feng Ninghou said lightly. In the main hall, the face of the named general changed slightly, and he immediately lowered his head and said nothing.
"Yes, Master Hou!"
As soon as Feng Ninghou's voice fell, a white-robed guard immediately led Fang Yun and a few people towards the west of the city. The group, only in the temple, stayed for less than half a pillar of incense, and left immediately.
"Little Hou Ye, I don't feel like something is quite right!"
Chu Hao followed up and whispered. Li Ji tried his best to pull Fang Yun into the Fengning Hou army, and they all knew about this matter. But judging from Feng Ninghou's demeanor, he didn't seem to care about this matter. This is very different from what they expected, creating a huge gap.
Fang Yun shook his head: "The problem is not with Feng Ninghou, but with this school captain Ye Wang. One will act on the opportunity. ”
A moment later, the west of the city arrived. There are many buildings around a huge school grounds. There are also many camp tents built around. On the school grounds, hundreds of recruits are training.
"You wait here, I'll go talk to the captain. ”
The white-robed guard said as he entered one of the houses.
After a while, the white-robed guard came out, and behind him, a thin man dressed as a lieutenant was followed. This person's eyes are very thin, and when he speaks, his eyes blink, although there are no thief eyebrows, but the rat eyes give people a strong feeling that this person is good at attacking the heart.
Master Hou has already sent someone to tell me. There are only nine of you, and in a moment, I'll send another one. Composition of a tithe. Arrange it yourself! Come, take them to Barracks No. 10!
After Ye Forget finished saying this, he flicked his sleeves, glanced at Fang Yun deeply, and immediately turned around and left. However, instead of knowing how to barracks, he went in the other direction.
"Guys, please follow me!"
The soldier who was ordered by Ye Wang, said cautiously. The nine people in front of him are richly dressed, and they can still let Feng Ninghou send personal guards over, and they will definitely not come
"It's here!"
What appeared in front of Fang Yun and the others was a barracks in disrepair, the wooden door was rotten, and before they entered the door, there was a musty smell coming to their nostrils.
"Little Hou Ye, this"
Zhou Xin was also stunned, but he didn't expect the so-called No. 10 barracks to be like this.
"Hmph!" Fang Yun sneered: "Don't think about it. Feng Ninghou asked us to deal with this person. The prince convened, a small school captain, he dared to disobey his orders, if there was no big backstage, he would not know whether he was alive or dead. Don't think about it, this Ye Forget is either the Marquis of Pingding, or the Marquis of Zhenguo, anyway, he can't get rid of the noble marquis. ”
Everyone was shocked when they heard this, and only after hearing Fang Yun say this that they noticed the facts. When everyone first entered the main hall, Feng Ning Hou was clearly gathering everyone to discuss things. The lieutenant is also among the conveners and councilors. At this time, Ye Forget actually stayed in the barracks with peace of mind, not fearless, what is that!
