In the cave north of the city, Wang Tianao gently shook the folding fan and pondered quietly.

"Cuixian, is there any difficulty?" The Ice Jade Fairy asked in a deep voice. Wang Tianao is the identity of the county lord Zhu Cuixian.

"Li Tianba met with Qiao Wanyun and the others today, and he didn't come out of the Golden Sword Gate, thinking that he had already reached a deal to get the treasure together. They had already begun to assemble outside the West Gate, expecting to go to the front line of the defeat of the Guyuan army to find treasure. ”

"In my view of the Golden Sword Gate, only Qiao Wanyun is brave and strategic, has rich experience in the rivers and lakes, and can be a strong enemy, and the rest are not to be feared."

"Shen Wang Zhu Mo arrested many disciples of the Kwantung faction and tortured them, and he must have known the clues of the treasure. A radius of thousands of miles is the boundary under the control of King Shen, and if King Shen dispatches military horses on a large scale, it will be difficult for us to resist. ”

Hearing this, the Ice Jade Fairy also frowned. There are also 100,000 soldiers and horses in the territory under the jurisdiction of the King of Liao, but it is a crime to behead the soldiers and horses to move troops and horses across places. This time, the Liao Wangfu can secretly mobilize more than 1,000 people.

"Master, don't worry, I have my own arrangements." Zhu Cuixian smiled slightly, "Master will take 200 good men to join up with the 500 Guishun Mongol cavalry in Zarha, and gather at the designated place on the Tatar border for further instructions." When they have robbed the treasure, they will enter the territory of the Mongol-Tatars. We disguised ourselves as Mongol rangers and robbed the treasure, evaded King Shen's army, and then waited for an opportunity to return to Jian'anzhou. ”

The Ice Jade Fairy's eyes lit up, "Cui Xian is resourceful and strategic, and it is really the blessing of the King of Liao!" ”

In the Golden Sword Gate, in Zhou Yunbi's room, Song Shuling pouted and said dissatisfiedly: "Uncle Shi, if you call Huazi, you just don't take us there, it's too hateful!" ”

Zhou Yunbi sighed softly, "Shuling should not be willful, this trip is extremely dangerous, and Gang Master Xie is also for our good." ”

"But the boss wants us to take care of Dugu Xiaotian, and he will also go to find the treasure with the flowers."

Zhou Yunbi smiled slightly, "Silly girl, our Wudang faction Tiyun Zongqing is famous all over the world, and we have more than a dozen Wudang masters, secretly following and responding, how can they know." ”

"Even if there is danger, with our light skills, it is not difficult to climb over the mountains and retreat. As long as you don't fight the army in the plains, you can protect yourself. Song Shuling was overjoyed when she heard this, and wrinkled her nose, "It's still Uncle Gaoming, let's get ready to go!" ”

In the early morning of the next day, Li Tianba, Qiao Wanyun and others went out of the West Gate of Shenyang Zhongwei together.

Everyone turned to a mountain col outside the city, and the people of the Zhenwei General's Mansion and the beggar gang had been waiting for a long time. Forty carts loaded with dry rations and drinking water were prepared, and more than 400 people disguised themselves as caravans and dragged westward.

Jin Linfeng brought two disciples of the Golden Sword Sect with him, who had been darts in the west all the year round and were familiar with the geography of the nearby mountains and rivers and the situation of the passes.

Everyone disguised themselves as business travelers, bypassed the avenue, traveled day and night, and had nothing to do all the way, and came to the northwest of Ningcheng County fifty miles later three days later.

Ningcheng County is located in the ancient Songzhou boundary and is famous for its abundance of pine trees.

Li Tianba, Qiao Wanyun, Dugu Xiaotian and others looked at the pine forest near and far, secretly worried.

The change of dynasties is the difference between things and people. Over the decades, the landscape has changed significantly. According to the geographical topography of the map and the location of the red circle, it is about a dense place of pine forest, about ten miles square.

"The entrance to the treasure must have been hidden in that pine forest!" Li Tianba pointed to a large pine forest in the northwest corner and said.

"We don't have enough axes on hand, so we can stay in place, buy axes from nearby counties, cut down pine trees, and then investigate them carefully." Qiao Wanyun groaned slightly and suggested.

Everyone said that it was such a dense pine forest, and the entrance to the treasure was extremely difficult to find, so they immediately set up camp outside the pine forest, and the tents on both sides were three miles apart.

The next day, Qiao Wanyun instructed the elder in charge to bring more than a dozen beggars to help his brothers go to Ningcheng County to purchase axes.

He stayed in the camp with Xiaotian, monitoring the movements of the Zhenwei military camp, and at the same time dismantling tricks with Xiaotian and pointing out difficult problems in his martial arts.

In the past half a month, with Qiao Wanyun's guidance, Xiaotian's martial arts foundation has become more solid, and his internal strength cultivation has also improved rapidly, Qiao Wanyun was secretly surprised.

Two days later, the elder in charge returned from Ningcheng County, bringing back more than 20 axes. Qiao Wanyun gave half of it to Li Tianba, and assigned the beggar disciples to take turns to start cutting down trees.

The pine forest covers a very large area, and the pine trunks are thick and tough, and the progress of cutting down trees is not fast. The people on both sides worked together, and it is expected that it will take five or six days to clear the field. In addition to cutting down trees, the rest of the people silently worked hard to practice pranayama in order to cope with the changes that followed.

This is the fourth day that Xiaotian has come to the pine forest, it is late, the cool breeze is seated, and the pine waves are gusting.

Dugu Xiaotian wielded the Pingtian Sword in the camp, slowly performing the Wind Sword Technique learned in the Golden Sword Gate, "Ancient Tree Breeze", "Wind Tree Feeling", "Wind Forest Bursts", ......

In the sound of the heavenly pine waves, the profound artistic conception is in the rhythm of nature, quiet and far-reaching, deep and high.

The wind gently overflows, from the source of green, the sea surface of spring, with the breath of new life, floating, a new green tree breaks through the ground, an old tree has a new annual ring, and spring is clear through the pine forest overnight.

The sound of verdant leaves, the sound of the body of the tree shaking its arms, are all vibrating between the strings, and the vast forest sea stirs the soul of life that continues to grow.

Gradually, Xiaotian's mind reflected such a picture of reckless forests and pine waves. Inside his brain, the blue air mass flashed a few times, and his sword technique actually slowly released an endless artistic conception.

"Boundless falling trees and Xiao Xiao, endless Yangtze River rolling" After a long time, Dugu Xiaotian groaned softly and gradually sobered up.

"I felt like I was one with the pine forest, and I felt the mood of the wind," he muttered to himself.

"Well, Hongmeng Jin is in the middle of the sixth stage." Every time I have this kind of feeling, the Hongmeng Jin in my body will improve a lot, and Xiaotian has fully adapted to this change.

Li Tianba stood in front of the camp, looking at the camp of the beggars, his face cloudy.

"What just happened? I was practicing, as if I sensed something unusual over there. ”

"You need to be careful on this trip!" He muttered to himself.

A hundred miles east of the pine forest, there is a black and oppressive military camp, roughly speaking, there are 10,000 soldiers and horses.

Shen Wang Zhu Mo put his hands behind his back and looked at the west from afar, thoughtful. General Ding Hualong and military advisor Zhang Shimou stood behind him on either side.

"Yu Xiu, is there any movement in the treasure hiding place?" Zhu Mo asked in a deep voice.

"Lord Wang, the spies reported that they are cutting down the pine forest there, and there is no other movement."

"Well, keep looking." Zhu Mo snorted coldly.

"Lord Wang, with our troops, since we have discovered the approximate location of the treasure, why wait, it is better to kill them immediately and annihilate them all, right?" Ding Hualong sneered.

"Don't worry, the treasure hasn't been found yet, let them live for two more days, you first lead three thousand soldiers and horses to ambush on the road to Tatar, and act when the opportunity arises." Zhu Mo smiled coldly, "The day after tomorrow, the Chinese army will be pulled out, and there will be no living mouth left at that time!" ”
