Xing'er was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Senior brother, then we will set off now, we must arrive in Dangyang City before the wicked woman!" ”

Xu Zhitang nodded, and then asked everyone to prepare to leave. He was afraid that he would meet Wu Zetian and his party on the road, so he decided to take a detour to Dangyang. At the same time, Xu Zhitang sent a few shrewd and capable subordinates to quietly follow Wu Zetian behind, so as not to lose Wu Zetian's traces.

Xu Zhitang explained to these people that if they found that Wu Zetian had changed his route and did not go to Yuquan Temple, he would immediately send someone to report to him. Then Xu Zhitang sent someone to Jingzhou to inform his friends in the yamen of Jingzhou about the results of the ambush, and by the way, he also learned about Wu Zetian's latest situation.

After Xu Zhitang made arrangements, he and Luo Sitang and Dongfang Xing'er took the rest of the people and went straight to Dangyang City. Since Xu Zhitang and the others came by detour, they only arrived in Dangyang one day earlier than Wu Zetian and the others.

At this time, the people who followed Wu Zetian also sent someone to Dangyang City. The man told Xu Zhitang that Wu Zetian might arrive in Hejia Town the next day. At the same time, the man also told Xu Zhitang about the many attacks that Wu Zetian had encountered recently.

When Xing'er heard this, she hurriedly asked who attacked Wu Zetian. The man said that they had been following from a distance, and that they had heard only the sound of fighting, but did not dare to approach, so it was not clear who it was.

Xing'er had no choice but to let the man go down to rest, and then sighed. Luo Sitang asked strangely, "Little junior sister, why are you sighing?" ”

Xing'er said with some loss: "I think that since these people are also the opponents of that evil woman, if we can join forces with them, then we will definitely be able to take Wu Zetian in one fell swoop!" But now there is no way to find these people, so I feel regretful. ”

Xu Zhitang smiled slightly and said, "Xing'er, we didn't expect others to help. Besides, we don't know who these people are or what their purpose is. Even if we can get in touch with them, we can't easily cooperate with them. ”

Xing'er asked puzzledly, "Senior brother, why is this?" ”

Xu Zhitang told Xing'er that Wu Zetian had fought wars with some neighboring countries and defeated these small countries. It is inevitable that these small countries will hold a grudge against Wu Zetian, and it is possible to send some people to assassinate Wu Zetian. Although he hated Wu Zetian very much and wanted to kill Wu Zetian, he couldn't join forces with those people.

Once this matter is known, he will be infamous as a traitor and traitor who colludes with foreign enemies. Xu Zhitang must not leave such a notorious reputation, so that not only will he be spurned by the world, but the good reputation of his father and grandfather will also be ruined.

After hearing this, Xing'er suddenly realized, and hurriedly said: "Senior brother, it seems that in this way, it is indeed impossible to join forces with these people. Otherwise, if you accidentally get involved with these people, you really can't tell. Let's go it safe on our own. ”

Luo Sitang then asked Xu Zhitang what arrangements he had since Wu Zetian would go to Hejia Town tomorrow. Xu Zhitang thought about it, and asked Luo Sitang to take a few people to prepare something for fire attack. He and Xing'er went to Yuquan Temple to check on what Wu Zetian would do, and to see if they could find out which way Wu Zetian might go.

Luo Sitang asked Xu Zhitang and Xing'er to concentrate on finding out the news, and the rest was left to him. Luo Sitang immediately sent a few people and asked them to go to several roads leading from Dangyang to Luoyang to check the terrain and find suitable ambush spots.

Of course Xu Zhitang has no opinion, these things are what Luo Sitang is good at. Xu Zhitang and Xing'er visited Yuquan Temple in advance the next day. Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived today, they met Feiyun.

When Xing'er saw that it was Feiyun, she was immediately furious, and said coquettishly: "You lackey, you dare to appear in this girl?" I'm really impatient! ”

Apricot said as she reached for the sword at her waist. Xu Zhitang hurriedly reached out and grabbed Xing'er's hand, and said softly: "Xing'er should not be impulsive." This is not the place to do your hands, so don't get people's attention. ”

Xing'er was stunned for a moment, looked at the bustling crowd around her, and had to pull out half of the sword and insert it again, only to look at Feiyun with a pair of beautiful eyes.

Feiyun didn't mind Xing'er's insults and attitude, but arched his hand towards Xing'er and said, "Xing'er girl, last time I really had to offend the girl. I apologize to you again, and please bear with me! ”

Xing'er snorted coldly, ignoring Feiyun's words and deeds. Xu Zhitang immediately thought that since Feiyun was here, Wu Zetian must have come to Yuquan Temple.

Xu Zhitang wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to probe Feiyun's tone. He then smiled slightly: "It's really a place where you don't meet in life!" It seems that we are very close to each other, and we will meet here again in a few days. Last time, Shaoxia didn't make it too difficult for my junior sister, I thank you here! ”

Xu Zhitang said as he bowed his hand. Xing'er was very displeased, she was inconvenient to be angry with Xu Zhitang, and instead shouted at Feiyun in a deep voice: "The shame that your brothers and sisters have brought me, I will definitely repay it in the future!" ”

Feiyun hurriedly said, "Miss Xing'er, haven't we humiliated you?" At that time, you just didn't notice it for a while, and we were secretly attacking, so we got lucky. It's not your shame, it's that we don't follow the rules. It's just that considering that the girl's martial arts are too high, in order to avoid casualties, she used not enough upright means. ”

Xing'er saw Feiyun praising herself vigorously, her attitude was also very sincere, her anger decreased slightly, and she said coldly: "Hmph, it turns out that lackeys and eagle dogs also know despicable and shameless?" I thought the three heroes of Xiaoxiang had become the three dogs of Xiaoxiang? ”

Feiyun thought to herself that it was fortunate that Meijing was not there, otherwise Xing'er would definitely have a big quarrel with Xing'er if she was so abusive. Feiyun didn't want to have a grudge with their Yandang faction, and the grudge became deeper and deeper.

Feiyun didn't get angry at Xing'er's insult, but smiled: "Girl, we are not some lackeys, we are bodyguards who were paid for." If we had known that your faction and Mrs. Li had a grudge, we would never have agreed to Mrs. Li to come to this troubled water. ”

Xu Zhitang immediately said: "Since Lin Shaoxia already has remorse, he should immediately change his evil and return to the right, and don't continue to work for a wicked person who is destined to be stinking for 10,000 years." ”

Feiyun made a helpless look and said, "It's too late to regret it now, since we have promised Mrs. Li to send her to Luoyang, we can only keep our promise." ”

Xing'er sneered and said: "Greedy for fame and fortune is greedy for fame and fortune, why bother to find some grandiose excuses." The people in the rivers and lakes are all heroes who dare to be heroes, and everyone knows what kind of people you are now. You don't want to gild yourself anymore! ”

Xing'er insulted Xiaoxiang Sanxia three times and twice, and Feiyun was also a little displeased, and said, "Xing'er girl, it's not appropriate for you to say this." You say we're greedy for money, and we admit it. You are from a famous family, you have been living a worry-free life since you were a child, so you naturally don't know how difficult life is for us ordinary people in the rivers and lakes, and it is normal to value money a little. ”

Feiyun paused, he made money with martial arts, and it was not a shame. When he was protecting Mrs. Li, he didn't hurt anyone. As for the covetousness of official positions, it is even more nonsense and groundless.

Feiyun told Xing'er that Mrs. Li did intend to give them an official position, but they Xiaoxiang Sanxia politely refused. They just promised Mrs. Li to send her to Luoyang. After that, Mrs. Li's affairs had nothing to do with their Xiaoxiang Three Heroes.

Feiyun actually wanted to tell them that his mission would end in Luoyang. Feiyun hoped that Xu Zhitang would go to Luoyang to find a way, and not make trouble for himself on the road and make himself embarrassed.

Although Xu Zhitang heard the sound of Feiyun's strings, he did not reply. Naturally, Xing'er couldn't hear it, she thought that Feiyun was just talking about it.

Feiyun saw that Xing'er was messing around, so he stopped paying attention to her and stopped talking. Xu Zhitang said: "Lin Shaoxia, the person you protect is in the Heavenly King Palace, right?" ”

Feiyun naturally couldn't reveal Wu Zetian's whereabouts, so he asked, "Xu Shaoxia, do you want to do it here?" If so, you're giving the Wagang hero a black face. Your grandfather's and father's good name will be ruined in your hands. ”

Xu Zhitang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "Lin Shaoxia, please rest assured that we will not do it in such a lively and prosperous place." Because in that case, it will definitely hurt the innocent. In the future, we will have a chance to deal with the wicked woman, so why hurry. ”

Feiyun breathed a sigh of relief and said, "After being worthy of being a hero of Wagang, like your predecessors, you can think about the people." ”

When Xu Zhitang heard Feiyun mention the heroes of Wagang again, he knew that Feiyun might already know about his grandfather. Xu Zhitang asked strangely: "Lin Shaoxia, why do you keep mentioning the heroes of Wagang?" ”

Feiyun smiled slightly and said, "I have admired the heroes of Wagang since I was a child, but I didn't expect Xu Shaoxia, the hero of Wagang!" ”

Xu Zhitang said in surprise: "How do you know where I come from?" Did the wicked woman tell you? ”

Feiyun immediately told Xu Zhitang that it was indeed Wu Zetian who said it. Feiyun also told Xu Zhitang that Wu Zetian had great respect for Xu Zhitang's grandfather.

Although Xu Zhitang set up a poisonous plan for fire attack, Wu Zetian admired Xu Zhitang very much and praised him. She also regretted that it was a pity that Xu Zhitang's ingenuity did not come to resist foreign enemies and make contributions on the battlefield, but was used to assassinate her.

Xu Zhitang said disdainfully: "She even has the face to mention my grandfather? If my grandfather had known what she had done, he would have regretted helping her in the first place! ”

Feiyun didn't know these things, and immediately asked, "Xu Shaoxia, what's going on?" Why haven't you heard of it? ”

Xu Zhitang sighed and said, "I don't want to mention the past. Go and ask your master. ”

At this time, Xing'er was a little impatient, and said to Xu Zhitang: "Senior brother, we still have to visit the whole temple, so don't talk nonsense with this lackey!" ”

Xu Zhitang saw that Feiyun's mouth was very tight, and he didn't mention Wu Zetian's matter at all, and he was afraid that it would be difficult to find out anything from Feiyun's mouth.

Xu Zhitang arched his hand towards Feiyun, turned around and left with Xing'er. From Feiyun's practice of blocking himself and not allowing him to go to the Heavenly King Palace, he can be sure that Wu Zetian is definitely in the Heavenly King Palace.
