Chapter 370: Taihao Goes to Wurong City

Rong Xuan then told Master Jiuqiu about his encounter with Zhenzheng at the gate of Thousand Winds City. He described in detail the conversation with Zhenzheng and Zhenzheng's reaction, and finally said, "Master, I have already told Zhenzheng's senior about my senior brother's presence in Mountain Frost City. ”

After listening to Rong Xuan's narration, Jiuqiu did not show much surprise. He already knew that Zhenzheng was now in Thousand Winds City, so he was not surprised by what happened to Rong Xuan. However, when he heard Rong Xuan tell Zhenzheng about Taihao in Mountain Frost City, his face suddenly became solemn.

"Oops!" Jiuqiu's heart sank, and he had a hunch that things might get very tricky. He knew Zhenzheng's character and methods, and once he knew about Taihao's affairs in Mountain Frost City, it would probably be unfavorable to Taihao.

Jiuqiu hurriedly summoned Taihao and Koji Yi to come over, his face full of seriousness and nervousness. When Tai Hao and Lu Yi walked into the room, they saw the expression on Master's face, and their hearts couldn't help but tighten.

"Master, what's going on?" Taihao asked.

Jiuqiu didn't answer his question, but said directly, "You must leave Mountain Frost City immediately!" ”

When Tai Hao and Koji Yi heard this, they were stunned. They didn't understand why Master would suddenly let them leave this place.

"Master, why do you want us to leave? Didn't you say you were going to be here for three months? It's only been a month. Taihao asked.

There was more seriousness and urgency in Jiuqiu's tone, and his eyes shimmered with a deep light like stars in the night sky. He stared at Taihao and Lu Yi tightly, and every word seemed to carry a thousand powers, deeply imprinted in their hearts.

"Because you're in danger of staying here now." Jiuqiu spoke slowly, every word clear and powerful, "You two leave quickly, this is the order of the master to you." ”

He stretched out his hand, and a charm appeared in his palm, a faint glow. He handed it to Tai Hao and said in a deep voice, "Put this spell on Maxima's leg, and it will take you all the way south." Don't take a break on the road, and you have to persevere when you're tired and thirsty. This is for your safety and for the peace of the rivers and lakes. ”

Taihao took the spell, and a warm current surged in his heart. He knew that Master was protecting them in his own way, and although his heart was full of reluctance and worry, he still nodded firmly.

"Go to Wurong City and find a hero named Xu Tang there." Jiuqiu continued, "He is ten years younger than his master, and he is the sworn brother of his master, so you call him uncle. He has a very high prestige and status in the rivers and lakes, and you go to him to live in seclusion for half a year, learn martial arts, and cultivate yourself. Don't forget to take your medication every day, because the toxins are still present in both of your bodies. It's up to you to stay after half a year, but until then, you must follow his arrangement. ”

Tai Hao frowned slightly, and asked puzzledly, "Master, why do you want to stay for half a year?" Didn't you say that as long as we avoided the limelight for three months, it would be fine? Now, a month has passed, and there are only two months left......"

Jiuqiu sighed softly, a trace of helplessness and worry flashed in his eyes. He glanced at Taihao deeply, and said in a deep voice: "Taihao, the rivers and lakes are like a turbulent sea, with undercurrents surging, and what you and I know is only the tip of the iceberg. Now there are more and more knights who want your life, so you must hide for another half a year to ensure your safety. ”

When Tai Hao heard this, his heart couldn't help but sink. He knew that Master's words were not alarmist, and the grievances and hatreds in the rivers and lakes were often more complicated than imagined. He had no intention of resisting, so he had to nod his head and suppress the doubts and unwillingness in his heart.

"Master, I understand." There was a hint of firmness in Taihao's voice, "I will do what you have asked me to do, go south to find Uncle Xu Tang, live in seclusion for half a year, and practice martial arts." ”

Jiuqiu nodded with satisfaction, he knew that Taihao was a smart and sensible child, and he could understand his hardships and expectations. He patted Taihao on the shoulder and said, "Remember, no matter what difficulties and challenges you encounter, you must be firm in your faith and move forward bravely." Master will always have your back. For the teacher, I will give you another two months' dose, and you must take it on time. ”

Tai Hao let Koji Yi take the medicine from Jiuqiu's hand, and he held the charm in his hand tightly, his eyes shining with determination. He knew that this was the talisman that Master had given him, and it was also his expectation and trust in himself.

At this moment, there is a smell of parting in the garden, as if even the wind carries a faint sadness. Zhenqi's flute is like crying, melodious and poignant, like an ancient farewell song, telling the sorrow and reluctance of parting. Every note was like a crystal dewdrop, dripping on Taihao's heart, causing him to resonate deeply.

Taihao stood in front of Master Jiuqiu, his expression full of determination and determination. He bowed deeply, and his voice trembled slightly: "Master, the disciple is leaving." Your teachings are kept in mind by the disciples and will never be forgotten. ”

Jiuqiu nodded silently, a trace of reluctance flashed in his eyes, but he didn't say anything. He knew that Taihao was going to be more than lucky, but he also believed that Taihao could overcome difficulties and find a path of his own.

Taihao and Koji Yi turned to leave, and when they passed by Zhenqi, who was playing the flute on a boulder in the garden, Taihao said sincerely: "Brother Zhenqi, what you said is right. I really need to get out of here and find my own path. Thank you for your previous advice. ”

However, Zhenqi seemed to be immersed in the sound of his own flute, and did not hear Taihao's words at all. His eyes are hollow and deep, as if he is talking to another world. Taihao looked at him, and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

Then, Taihao and Koji Yi took Maxima and embarked on the southbound journey. The charm shimmered faintly under the horse's hooves, as if to escort their journey. They clinged to each other tightly and traveled all the way south, chasing the hero named Xu Tang to seek refuge. Their hearts are filled with determination and faith, and they know that no matter how many difficulties and challenges lie ahead, they will be able to overcome everything if they are steadfast in their faith.

Along the way, Taihao kept in mind Jiuqiu's entrustment and did not dare to slack off. They rode thousands of miles of horses and galloped on the wide official road, and the sound of horses' hooves was like the sound of war drums. Even after walking for a day and a night, Taihao and Koji Yi never had a moment of rest. Their thirst is like a traveler in the desert, in desperate need of nectar for nourishment.

On the side of the road, dozens of tea stalls are arranged in a staggered manner, and the enticing aroma of tea and steaming tea seem to beckon to them. However, Taihao and Koji Yi tensed their nerves and did not dare to stay at all. They know very well that this river and lake are sinister, people's hearts are unpredictable, and behind every seemingly ordinary tea stall, there may be a deadly danger.

In this way, they withstood exhaustion and hunger and thirst, and went all the way south, and finally arrived at Wurong City. Taihao's heart was both fortunate and worried, they successfully avoided countless traps and pursuits, but the next road was still full of unknowns and challenges.

In fact, Taihao's worries are not unfounded. All the tea stalls and people they encountered along the way were traps set by Zhenzheng and Shaoling to catch them. They used the huge bounty and Zhen Zheng's prestige on the rivers and lakes to mobilize countless knights to chase and kill Taihao.

The reason why Jiuqiu asked Taihao and Koji Yi to leave Mountain Frost City quickly was because he learned of Zhenzheng and Shaoling's conspiracy in advance. He is well aware of Zhenzheng's means and influence on the rivers and lakes, and if he doesn't let Taihao leave in time, the consequences will be unimaginable. The reason why he came to Mountain Frost City to find Zhenzheng was to understand the truth on the one hand, and to protect Taihao's safety on the other hand.

Zhenzheng's reputation on the rivers and lakes is not good, and he is good at using power and means to achieve his own goals. Although he and Jiuqiu had a friendship when they were younger, they drifted apart as time went on. Jiuqiu's understanding of Zhenzheng is deeply rooted in the bone marrow, and he knows that Zhenzheng can do anything for power and profit.

And this plan to murder Taihao was planned by Zhenzheng and Shaoling. They used Taihao's fame and influence in the rivers and lakes to take this opportunity to get rid of this potential threat. Zhenzheng not only accepted Shaoling as an apprentice, but he was also the master of Wanyan. The reason why they want to get rid of Taihao is just to consolidate their position and influence in the rivers and lakes.

However, they didn't expect Jiuqiu to learn the news in advance and take measures. The reason why Taihao and Lu Yi were able to successfully escape the pursuit and reach Wurong City was entirely due to Jiuqiu's wisdom and decisiveness.

The sun hung high in the sky, the sun was scorching, and the stone pavement of Wurong City reflected a dazzling light. After a day of running, Taihao and Koji Yi were already hungry and had a dry mouth. They caught a glimpse of a roadside liquor shop with a wine flag swaying in the wind in front of the door, as if beckoning to them.

They looked at each other and smiled, and stepped into the wine shop. The interior of the restaurant is cool and pleasant, and the air is filled with a faint aroma of sake and the enticing smell of the dishes. Taihao and Koji Yi sat at a table by the window, and the shopkeeper greeted him warmly, wiped his sweat and asked, "Two guest officers, what do you want?" ”

Taihao rubbed his eyes, glanced at the menu, and casually ordered a few drinks and dishes. As soon as the food was served, they devoured it as if they were going to swallow all their hunger.

While chewing on the food, Tai Hao asked the shopkeeper for the news: "Little Er, may I ask that in Wurong City, there is a hero named Xu Tang, do you know where his mansion is?" ”

Shopkeeper blinked, thought for a while, and said, "Oh, Xu Tang Daxia, he is a big celebrity in our Wurong City." He comes to my shop every afternoon for a few drinks, and if you want to see him, just wait here, and I guess he'll be here in a moment. ”

Taihao was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked: "Thank you, Xiaoer!" ”

At this moment, a man with five big and three thick strode to Tai Hao and Ko Yi, and stepped heavily on the stool next to Tai Hao with one foot, making a "crunch" sound. He stared at a pair of big eyes like copper bells, and said in a rough voice, "Hey! You two are from out of town? ”

Taihao frowned slightly, raised his head and glanced at the man, but he didn't speak, just signaled with his eyes to koji not to act rashly.

Seeing that Taihao ignored him, the man couldn't help but be a little annoyed, and his voice raised a few points: "Hey! Are you mute? Uncle Ben is talking to you, can't you hear me? ”

Tai Hao spoke slowly, with a hint of disdain in his tone: "Oh, it turns out that you are talking to me." I thought it was a dog barking. ”

When the man heard Taihao's words, he was immediately furious, the horizontal flesh on his face trembled, and his eyes flashed with fierce light. He raised his fist and smashed it towards Taihao like a small mountain, with a fierce momentum, as if he was going to punch Taihao away.

At the moment when the fist was about to hit Tai Hao, Koji Yi's body moved, flashing in front of Tai Hao like a ghost. A cold light flashed in his eyes, and the long sword in his hand was instantly unsheathed, and the tip of the sword was pointed directly at the man's throat.

When the man saw this, a trace of fear flashed in his eyes, but then he was overshadowed by anger. He sneered and said, "Yo! It seems that you two country men from other places are really not afraid of death, and you still brought your guys here? ”

He shouted behind him: "Brothers, it seems that these two guys want to have some fun for us, let's teach them a good lesson, let them know that Wurong City is not the place for them to go wild!" ”

With his order, the men at the four tables behind him stood up one after another, and walked towards Taihao and Koji Yi menacingly. They were armed with sticks or short knives at their waists, and they all looked hideous, obviously intending to be unkind to Taihao and Koji.

Koji Yi looked at the approaching men, turned his head to look at Tai Hao, and a hint of inquiry flashed in his eyes. He asked, "Master, are we going to beat them?" ”

Tai Hao's eyes flickered with cold light, he patted Ko Yi's shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "We are people in the rivers and lakes, and what people in the rivers and lakes pay attention to is a righteous word." These guys provoke for no reason, and we can't afford to be bullied by this. Hit and let them know that we're not to be messed with! ”

With Taihao's order, the liquor store suddenly fell into chaos. Taihao and Koji Yi were agile, shuttling through the crowd like two swimming dragons, their fists and feet were as fierce as wind and thunder, and every shot was full of thunder.

Although those men were also strong people, they were quickly defeated under the joint attack of Taihao and Koji Yi. There were screams and begging for mercy in the wine shop, but Taihao and Koji Yi had no intention of stopping.

Even though the shopkeeper was anxiously persuading on the side, none of them was willing to stop. In the eyes of Taihao and Lu Yi, these men are no longer just provocateurs, they are insults to the righteousness of the rivers and lakes. Therefore, they have to use their fists to tell these men that the rivers and lakes are not places where they can go wild at will!

About half a column of incense was played, and the wine shop was already in a mess. The group of men lay on the ground in all directions, moaning one after another, obviously unable to fight anymore. Seeing this, the shopkeeper hurriedly wiped the sweat from his forehead and ran out of the door in a panic, obviously to report to the official.
