In Niyang Town, the matter is over.

But the matter of the three families of Su Zhou and Tan is not over yet, although at first this matter was intervened by Tan Rusu's moving Su Mu, and he also told Tan Rusu that he would not care about this matter anymore.

But leaving without a head or tail is definitely not what Su Mu wants.

Since he is fortunate to come to this mysterious world, and since he is fortunate to embark on the road to immortality, Su Mu does not want to give up halfway about the things he encounters in his practice, otherwise he will not be in a smooth mood when he thinks about it in the future, how can he talk about a free life?

Thereupon.

After completing the procedure at the city god and sending Su Qian and the others to the Yin Division.

In the gloomy weather of the second day, Su Mu took Yunqi to the Northern Wolf Residence Pass, which was where Tan Zheng was stationed.

A month later.

A man, a lemur and a monkey finally arrived at this border fortress.

The wolf lives in the pass, only more than 1,000 households live, even if it is about to enter the autumn harvest season, but the city is still quite deserted.

However, when Su Mu stepped on the majestic Wolf Dwelling Pass, he looked out towards the extreme north, although it was a wild place, it was vast and boundless, and his vision was broad, which made Su Mu, who belonged to the southerners both in his previous life and now, feel quite spectacular.

It's just that this trip to Su Mu has become a simple ornamental scenery after all.

Originally.

Not long ago, Tan Zheng was promoted to the post of Taishou of Dongliao County because of his merits, and he went to take up his post more than a month ago.

About half a month ago, Tan Zheng sent someone to Wolf Juguan to pick up his father, indicating that Tan Zheng's government affairs in Eastern Liaocheng were progressing smoothly.

Su Mu was also slightly surprised after hearing this, first, he was surprised that Tan Zheng's father was still alive, and second, he was surprised that Tan Zheng was actually promoted.

After leaving Chengguan, Yun Qi asked, "Sir, you heard that Tan Zheng went to Dongliao City before, and you seem to be a little worried?" ”

Yunqi is a native of Qingqiu, so he naturally doesn't know the border defense line of the Great Zhou.

Su Mu explained: "On the northern border defense line of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are nine passes on the edge of the town, and the Wolf Ju Pass is one of the nine passes, guarding the middle section of the northern border defense, but although it is nominally called the nine passes, in fact there is a city in the nine passes. ”

Nine passes in the northern border of the Great Zhou, Yunqi has still heard of it.

But Da Zhou's pass in the north is far more than nine passes, so she doesn't know exactly which pass.

However, Su Mu's words had already been said very clearly, and Yun Qi looked at it contemplatively and said, "What does Mr. mean that Eastern Liao City is one of the nine passes?" ”

She was surprised, she didn't know why it was a city, and why it was listed as one of the nine levels.

"That's right,"

Of course, these are not military secrets, as long as you are slightly interested, you will know that Su Mu told Yunqi that it has nothing to do with it.

"Not only is it an important town in Jiuguan, but it is also the head of Jiuguan, and the imperial court transferred Tan Zheng to the Taishou of Eastern Liao, which is to ask him to supervise the military of Eastern Liao, and he can already be called a general of the town who really guards the border pass."

Yunqi was smart, and quickly understood what Su Mu's worries were, "Mr. is worried that the imperial court will protect Tan Zheng?" ”

"Yes, there is no possibility,"

Su Mu said: "When talking to the main general of the Wolf Pass, you must be able to see that this general is very optimistic about Tan Zheng, since Tan Zheng can sit in such a high position, how can there be no one in the court?" ”

"No wonder,"

Monk Hai suddenly came out, as if he had seen through the warmth and coldness of the world, "I don't know if the general is not worried at all after hearing about Tan Zheng's matter, maybe they already know about it, and they are still ready to do it." ”

Hearing this, Yunqi also became worried, "Sir, if this is the case, what should I do?" ”

Su Mu was silent, he didn't seem to have a conflict with the people in the court.

But since he has been involved in this matter, if he does not understand, he will not be able to leave with peace of mind.

After thinking for a moment, he said, "Let's go to Liaodong City and see the situation." ”

......

A few days later.

Su Mu and his entourage, facing the autumn wind, finally set foot in the Dongliao region.

This is the extreme east of the northern border of the Great Zhou Dynasty, to the south is the blue sea, and to the east or north, it is the territory of the alien race.

More importantly, the rear convenience of Eastern Liao City was the Tianhaiguan that guarded the Great Zhou Jingshi.

It can be seen from this how important the significance of the Eastern Liao City in the Great Zhou is.

And now, the Eastern Liao Taishou, who had just taken office, was involved in a major case involving more than 100 people's lives, and the matter would definitely be reported to His Majesty the Emperor, and no one knew how His Majesty the Emperor would make a judgment.

When Su Mu approached the land of less than 100 miles of Eastern Liao City, he found that there were no crops in the fields.

"Sir, it seems that the crops in the fields have been harvested,"

Yunqi looked at the yellowing woods in the distance, still puzzled, and said: "But although it is said that it is August now, and it is the autumn harvest season, not everything is ripe, how can it give people a barren feeling?" ”

"I'm afraid something big is going to happen in Eastern Liao City,"

This is obviously a means of clearing the wilderness, and now that the crops are ripe, the group of guys in the north is indeed very likely to go south to raid.

"Let's go, go to Dongliao City quickly!"

Su Mu took Yunqi and rose up with the sword.

On the way, between the suburban villages outside the city, the common people could no longer be seen, and they thought that they had moved into Liaodong City, which strengthened Su Mu's conjecture in his heart.

Not long after, Su Mu saw a group of sergeants escorting many civilians about thirty or forty miles outside the city.

So he went down and inquired.

The sergeant escorting the people saw a man and a woman suddenly appear behind him, the man was obviously a weak scholar, and the woman also looked weak.

guessed that the other party should be people farther away, but he didn't blame the other party for missing the specified time.

"You two, hurry up and join the team, there's no one behind, right?"

Hearing the sergeant's words, Su Mu and Yunqi were stunned one after another.

However, Su Mu reacted quickly and saluted: "Master Jun misunderstood, our brother and sister came to Dongliao to look for relatives, but when we saw everyone running to the city, what happened?" ”

Hear this.

The sergeant did not get angry, let alone drive them out of the ranks, and said: "You two brothers and sisters are really not at the right time, the group of horned demon cubs in the north is leading a large army south, and there will be a big battle soon, you quickly enter the team, enter the city and slowly look for your relatives." ”

The alien race in the north is actually called the Tiantong tribe.

The Tiantong clan believed that they were gifted with divinity and could communicate with heaven and earth, hence the name of the clan.

However, the vast majority of Terrans do not recognize their name.

Because the Tiantong clan supported the Demon Sect to deal with the Great Zhou, and they had horns on their foreheads, the human race named them the Horned Demon Clan.

As a result, among the military and civilians, there is such a name as the horned demon cub.

In fact, this is also one of the reasons why the Terrans and the Tiantong have been fighting for tens of thousands of years, the Terrans consider themselves to be the primates of all things, and the Tiantong people think that they are the real primates of all things.

"Are you really going to fight?"

Yunqi was a little apprehensive, she didn't expect that she would see the Horned Demon Clan's army fighting with the Terran army.

The northern part of the ancient kingdom of Qingqiu is also the territory of the Great Zhou, and their country is under the arm of the territory of the Great Zhou.

It is also because of the geographical location that Qingqiu has an excellent relationship with the Great Zhou, and Qingqiu will also select soldiers from the country to go to the periphery of the country every year to defend it, but it is difficult to see the horned demon clan with a little fox like Yunqi.

The sergeant didn't know that she was emotional, but felt that she was afraid, and comforted her with a smile: "Girl, don't worry, our new Taishou in Dongliao City is a great general who has made great achievements outside the Wolf Residence Pass, which has made those horned demon cubs fearful." ”

"This time, even if this group of horned demon cubs is blind, they must not know that General Tan has been transferred to Dongliao, so they want to come to the east to plunder, you wait and see, how our general will break the enemy army."

You can see it, and you can hear it.

The sergeant in front of him, whether it was his expression or words, had a high level of trust and admiration for Tan Zheng.

Right now.

An elderly man also looked back and said: "The two little dolls must not have heard of General Tan's prestige, a few of us, in fact, we all moved from the Wolf Residence Pass, and we are steady." ”

When Su Mu heard this, he was terrified.

From the Wolf Ju Pass to the East Liao City, not to mention the thousands of miles, "Uncle, you mean, you moved from the Wolf Pass thousands of miles away to the East Liao City, why is this difficult?" ”

"You don't understand, I'll tell you,"

The old man said: "When we were in the Wolf Residence Pass, we were tossed by the horned demon cubs in the north every other time, and sometimes the crops were destroyed, but since General Tan arrived at the Wolf Residence Pass, we have never seen those horned demon cubs in the pass. ”

"That's right, you two brothers and sisters can rest assured,"

Another young man's tone was extremely firm, "With General Tan here, your relatives are absolutely fine, of course you will be fine, maybe you can still see General Tan breaking through the alien races and holding their horns to build a Jingguan." ”

Oh my God, what a trust.

In his previous life, Su Mu had only heard of Liu Bei crossing the river with his people, and now these people are not afraid of the dangers of a thousand miles to follow Tan Zheng, what kind of scene is it?

"Hehe, with General Tan here, I'm really not afraid, following him is a down-to-earth person."

"Yes, I really wish there were more people like General Tan!"

"Okay, I want to be like General Tan in the future."

"Cut, just you?"

"What do you despise? I heard that General Tan was also a small person before, before he joined the army, after nightfall, he began to sharpen his sword, and after dark, he went out of the customs to kill foreign races, and General Tan was appreciated by General Wolf Juguan. ”

Su Mu and Yunqi walked behind the line.

But by their side, there is always someone who is very interested in telling them the story of Tan Zheng's killing of the enemy.

Su Mu believes that the words of these low-level people are absolutely true.

One person, one fox and one monkey treated this general who originally planned to slaughter more than 100 members of the Su family, and his feelings became more and more complicated.
