Chapter 113: Attacked Again
The speed of the prisoner car team was still relatively slow, and Liu Su often sent people to explore the way ahead on the way.
This greatly reduces the possibility of being ambushed.
Fortunately, nothing major happened along the way, and it was not worth mentioning that a few little demons were solved by the way.
It's just that when passing through Weicheng, Liu Su frowned and didn't give the order to enter the city for a long time.
Seeing this, Li Hongye opened his mouth and asked, "What's wrong?" ”
Liu Su did not shy away from it, and said bluntly: "The people of Weicheng have been favored by Commander Shen, and now I am afraid that it is inappropriate to enter the city with this appearance." ”
Li Hongye frowned when he heard this, Liu Su's concern was not unreasonable, so he asked, "Can I take a detour?" ”
Liu Su shook his head:
"There are a lot of mountains and mountains in Henan Province, not to mention how much time will be delayed by the detour, and even the safety on the road cannot be guaranteed, after all, some of the demons with advanced cultivation are hidden in these deep mountains, they don't come out to make trouble, and the court will naturally not take the initiative to provoke them, this is a practice for thousands of years, if we venture into the mountains, then it will touch the territory of the other party, which is likely to cause unnecessary disputes, and I am afraid that there will be a lot of casualties."
Hearing Liu Su's answer, Li Hongye also made a difficulty, but Jiang Chuci, who was behind them, spoke up at this moment:
"There's nothing to be embarrassed about, Shen Ningxiu is sealed, there are so many of us here, we can release him out of the prisoner car, and make plans after leaving Weicheng."
Liu Su and Li Hongye glanced at each other, it was obviously against the laws of the Great Jin Dynasty to do so, but wasn't there a living example around him?
After a brief thought, Liu Su nodded, personally came to Shen Ning's prisoner car, and opened the wooden door of the prisoner car.
Seeing the other party's behavior, Shen Ning's eyes revealed a trace of incomprehension, and the eyes of others also looked here.
"Weicheng is ahead."
Liu Su's answer was very simple, Shen Ning heard the meaning of his words, and of course he would not refuse the other party's decency.
So he got out of the prisoner car and walked towards Weicheng.
When everyone walked into Weicheng, the originally bustling streets became even more noisy when they saw them.
"Look, it's the people from Tsing Yi Si and the Heavenly Master's Mansion who are back."
I don't know who shouted in the crowd, and the street suddenly seemed to be fried, and many people walked to both sides of the street to welcome the hero in their eyes.
Shen Ning's matter soon spread all over Henan Province, and of course the people of Weicheng also heard about it, and they were still full of worries, but when they saw Shen Ning walking in the crowd intact, they immediately let go of a heavy heart.
"Look, isn't that Immortal Master Shen?"
"If it's really Shen Immortal Master, someone said before that he committed a catastrophe, I didn't believe it at the time, how could a person like Shen Tianshi who worked hard for our people have such a tragic fate?"
"Who's to say it isn't? These rumor-mongers deserve to die. ”
Listening to the words of the people in his ears, Shen Ning sighed slightly.
Peony approached him at this time and asked softly, "How is the situation?" ”
Shen Ning naturally knew what Peony was asking, so he nodded.
After getting Shen Ning's confirmation, Peony continued: "When we get out of Weicheng, let's find a place and run." ”
Shen Ning couldn't help frowning, although he had unlocked the acupuncture points, he hadn't thought about whether to run away yet.
Peony saw his hesitation, and immediately spoke: "Silly junior brother, what are you still hesitating?" We escort you back to Shenjing City, and that is going to be beheaded by the Autumn Queen! Do you want to die? What's more, the people escorted this time are also our disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion, you will definitely be able to escape. ”
"It's because of you that I can't run." Shen Ning was faint.
If he escapes, these people who are responsible for escorting him will be guilty of dereliction of duty and will be punished not badly.
Peony was stunned, and said angrily: "You used to be such a smart person, why are you confused now, even if we are condemned by His Majesty, then we will not be guilty to death, but what about you?" Do you want us to watch you die? ”
Shen Ning was silent, and now he was indeed in a dilemma.
If he wanted to run, with these men, it would be difficult to keep him.
However, Shen Ning didn't hesitate for long, not to make a decision, but the officials in the Weicheng Yamen heard the movement on the street and saw Shen Ning and them.
At the first time, Weicheng Taishou and Sima Xiangru came up.
When he saw Shen Ning, Sima Xiangru's eyes moved slightly, and he took Shen Ning's hand warmly:
"Knowing that you have calmed down the demon trouble, Lord Taishou and I have been happy and have not been able to sleep for several days, why did you come back without saying a word, so we were not prepared at all."
Shen Ning looked natural, and replied with a smile: "It's just passing by, what is there to say?" ”
"That's your fault!" Sima Xiangru said with a straight face: "With our friendship, we still have to eat a parting meal, and I don't know when I will be able to see you again, listen to me tonight after eating before leaving." ”
Shen Ning, as a prisoner, had the right to decide where to rest, so he just smiled and said, "There is still official business, so it is inconvenient to stay for a long time." ”
Hearing this, Sima Xiangru's eyes were gloomy, he glanced at Taishou who was talking to Liu Su, and then looked at the rest of the people, and then called the official behind him to buy a few pots of good wine.
"Even if we don't eat, a glass of wine is the whole friendship between us."
Looking at Sima Xiangru's earnest eyes, Shen Ning knew that he had learned something, and this glass of wine was probably the other party's send-off bar, so he didn't refuse.
Of course, Li Hongye and Liu Su would not refuse Sima Xiangru's request to see him off with wine, and after the official bought the wine, he poured a glass for everyone, wanting to pay respect.
Shen Ning and Sima Xiangru drank a pot of spirits together.
Sima Xiangru raised his wine glass, looked at Shen Ning, and said earnestly: "You return to Shenjing City on this trip, and the two of us don't know if we can meet again in this life, so we only use this spirit to pay tribute to our past." ”
Even if he is deeply trapped, even if the road ahead is dead, but at this moment, Shen Ning is still free and easy, raised his wine glass, and said lightly: "Don't worry about the road ahead, who in the world doesn't know you?" ”
In just two lines of poetry, Shen Ning's state of mind was exhausted, and Sima Xiangru drank the liquor in the cup with red eyes.
As an official of Weicheng, of course, he has an extremely keen political sense, and now that many things in Henan Province have not been completely resolved, Shen Ning hurried back to Shenjing City under the escort of a group of people, so the rumors that spread throughout Henan Province during this time are true or false, and there is no need to verify it.
After drinking the wine in the cup, it was still early, Shen Ning followed the team and continued to set off, and the people of Weicheng spontaneously organized a send-off, and only stopped their footsteps after leaving Weicheng for more than ten miles.
The disciples of the Tsing Yi Division and the Heavenly Master's Mansion, many people's tears wet the blue clothes, they fought to the death with demons, not for themselves, but for the sake of this group of people in the world, it can be said that the reluctance of the people at this moment is the affirmation of the meaning of their lives.
Seeing this scene, Liu Su also felt a lot of emotion in his heart, and at the same time looked at Shen Ning with a little more reverence in his eyes.
After disappearing from the field of view of the people of Weicheng, Liu Su did not propose to re-imprison Shen Ning in a prison car.
Since Liu Su didn't mention this matter, the disciples of the Heavenly Master's Mansion naturally wouldn't take the initiative to talk about it, so Shen Ning followed the team like a normal cultivator and continued to move forward.
As the sun went down, the sky gradually darkened, but it was only the time of the new year, and the night was far from so early.
"Boom" exploded, as if the sky had fallen, the whole sky suddenly darkened, the black clouds of the mountains on all sides were originally stacked and restricted, and were shaken by the thunder, the black clouds were like a big mantle from all directions above the sky, covering the sky and the sun, the wind wrinkled, stirring the dark clouds rolling, deep in the dark clouds, lightning and thunder -
"It's going to rain?" Shen Ning looked up at the sky.
Liu Su said: "This rain came too suddenly, everyone hurry up to see if they can get to the next city before dark." ”
When everyone heard this, they quickened their pace, trying to find a place to shelter from the rain, but they couldn't wait for the heavy rain, and they could hear the sound of "rustling" in the mountains and fields, and the pouring rain poured down from south to north, and the kung fu of more than a dozen steps drenched everyone on the head and face-
The rain poured down, the rain splashed down all over the sky and flew like a whip, and the sky and the earth were full of vast rain, the mountains, rivers and trees silently endured, and Shen Ning and his party who were hurrying.
With the rain falling there is also the roaring thunder, the sound of horses' hooves and footsteps are mixed, everyone braves the heavy rain to move forward, the feeling of being wet is very uncomfortable, here is a flat mountain range is the link between Weicheng and the next city, there is no village cave nearby, there are a lot of big trees on the side of the road, and there are still a lot of miles to get to the place where people live.
Pairs of dark boots made a splash on the water stalls, and their steps were fast, and no one wanted to endure the bad weather.
Although the environment was very harsh, the people of Tsing Yi Division and Heavenly Master Mansion also did not relax their vigilance, and observed the surrounding situation while hurrying.
Of course, Shen Ning was no exception, but the others didn't know that he had broken through the acupuncture points, so they gave him a fiery horse to keep up with their actions.
The rain hit Shen Ning's body coldly, the mountains were lush with trees, and the towering trees with lush branches and foliage fell under the impact of the rain, falling pieces of green leaves, and the smooth dirt was soon covered with fallen leaves.
Shen Ning looked at both sides of the road, and when a leaf fell on him, he suddenly seemed to realize something, and immediately grabbed the reins, and the horse neighed, only to hear him shout:
"That's not right! All stop! ”
As soon as the words fell, a killing machine burst out from the dense forest!
