Chapter 294: Alone on the Road

The magicians left behind in Autumn Twilight City looked at Shaodiantai strangely, and said, "The magicians of a division of your regular army are equivalent to a lower-level city magician guild, I took a look at the city just now, at least tens of thousands of people came.

Shao Diantai stretched out his hand to support his forehead, not knowing how to explain, "Okay, that's it, you two are in charge of Autumn Twilight City, and my subordinates are in charge of the outside." ”

The Tenth Legion is one of the three elite legions, and Shaodiantai does not lack arrogance, and he solves it himself without anyone to assist him.

From Autumn Twilight City to Tianmen Town, the terrain is flat all the way, and there are several hills less than ten meters high, which is the most suitable terrain for cavalry to charge. The five divisions of the Tenth Army lined up in the east and west, and more than 50,000 men and 70,000 or 80,000 horses filled the 40-kilometer defensive line.

Because it was a local battle, the 10th Army Corps did not equip each cavalry with double horses this time, but only brought more than 20,000 war horses to carry their baggage, otherwise the five divisions would have at least 100,000 war horses. They were in charge of the royal pastures, and the most indispensable military supply was the war horses, and the cavalry units of all the legions looked down on them.

When the sky was bright, the defense line of the Tenth Legion had taken shape, and at this moment, in the town capital, the streets and alleys were enthusiastically discussing who would win the championship of the knight competition, but there were people in the Protector's Mansion full of sorrow.

Ding Xiao handed over a letter to the old man with red eyes and sobbing, and the old man opened his eyes in fright after reading it, "When did you find out? Who guarded the young master's courtyard last night?"

The old man's voice was not loud, but he obviously lowered his voice hard, and his hands holding the letter were trembling, which was very rare in the sunset archer.

"Because the light in the young master's room was not extinguished last night, the slave maid did not rest until late, and he had the intention to let the young master rest more, so he deliberately entered the room late for the time of three incense sticks, and it was already bright at that time. It was Ding Cai who was on duty outside the hospital last night, and he was outside the door. Ding Xiao said while wiping his tears.

"Ding Cai, you get in for me. Now the old man's voice raised a little.

Ding Cai really crawled into the old man's room.

"You," the old man slapped the letter on the table, pointed at Ding Cai with his finger, and then seemed to have woken up to something, and lowered his hand in frustration, "The young master is now gone, what can I do?"

"Senior Qian, I didn't sleep lazily last night, I kept an eye on the surroundings of the courtyard, but the young master is used to cultivating in the room, so I don't dare to pay attention to the situation in the room. Ding Caicheng knelt on the ground in fear.

"What's wrong, what's going on?" General Shi heard the movement here and rushed over.

The old man pointed to the letter on the table and said, "The young master ran away from home alone, and he should have slipped out of the secret passage, I didn't expect this, the secret passage only made a warning mechanism to come in from the outside, but did not do it when he went out from the inside. ”

General Shi picked up the letter and read it quickly, put down the letter in his hand without saying a word, jumped out of the door quickly, and then jumped on the roof, and disappeared after a few ups and downs, and the letter paper had not yet fallen to the ground.

"Alas. The old man sighed and bent down to pick up the letter left by Ding Kui, "This news must be tightly sealed and not let others know." For the young master's senior brothers and sisters and seniors, they all said that the young master went to the Anguo Mansion and didn't know when he would come back.

Just say to your own people that the young master has important things to deal with, no one should ask more, let alone leak it to the outside world, who dares to chew his tongue and say half a sentence, don't blame me Qian Bu for being ruthless. You go back, I'll go to the Anguo Mansion. ”

Anguo Mansion.

Jiang Tong, who had not been in retreat for two days, came out again, he sat on the main seat of the study, looking at his son who was standing with his head bowed solemnly on both sides and the old man kneeling in front of him, "What are you panicking, Kui'er can leave this letter, which shows that he has thought it through."

This kid has high aspirations, look at the saying, 'The world is big outside, I want to go out and see', who can match him when you are young?

If you want to become a peerless powerhouse, you must go through the grinding, and he has always been under your protection, and he doesn't even know what the danger is.

Although it is a bit dangerous to wander outside alone, with his skills, his mind, and the experience you usually teach him, I believe that Kui'er will come back safe and sound. ”

"What my father taught me is that once this matter spreads, it is likely that someone will be unfavorable to Kui'er, and we don't know where he is, so we can't send someone to protect him secretly. Jiang Li still has worries.

"The young master's disguise technique was taught by me, and he is extremely talented in this area, if you are not very familiar with him, you will definitely not be able to see his disguise. The old man knelt on the ground and said.

"Well, you get up first, so that's fine, we don't know where he went, and the others won't know, but we can't be unguarded against some people.

Jiang Xi, you find someone who is similar to Kui'er in size and appearance to pretend to be a stand-in, and declare to the public that I will take Kui'er out on a trip, let the stand-in leave the capital in a carriage with me, and let him show up a few times on the way.

With me here, the people who are tracking and monitoring don't dare to get too close, outsiders will only think that Kui'er is with me, and then I will find a place to disappear with a stand-in, so that outsiders can speculate wildly. "Jiang is still old and spicy, and Jiang Tong has come up with a countermeasure.

"Yes, boy, I'll do it. Jiang Xi left in a hurry.

"You," Jiang Tong pointed at the old man, "Don't stay in Zhenjing, let's clean up and go back to Xiaxi Town in the next two days, so that the outside world can be convinced that Kui'er is with me and doesn't need the protection of you people." ”

Ding Kui did run away from home, after talking with Shao Dianmi, he had long wanted to fade out of people's field of vision, and the sudden arrival of family affairs prompted him to be willful and play a runaway game.

"If you play a sudden disappearance, you don't need to fade out, people can't find me, and after two years, everyone will forget about me, and then I reappear in a low-key manner, at least I can dispel some people's thoughts of plotting against me. Ding Kui looked at the reflection in the water and said proudly.

He was dressed as a magician in his twenties, but he didn't have gold trim on his cuffs.

Mage robes are sold all over the street, but the gold trim on the cuffs is not something that can be embroidered casually, it needs to be certified by the Magician Guild, and a special person is responsible for embroidering the gold trim.

Not all magicians find a guild for certification, once they join the magicians' guild, they have to fulfill certain obligations, and a small number of magicians would rather collect cultivation resources by themselves than join the magicians' guild.

Ding Kui pretended to be a magician who had not joined the guild.

He left the Protector's Mansion before dawn through the secret passage in his room, and with the stealth technique he had learned from the old man, plus the Eagle Eye and Acceleration Technique, he slipped away to the Magician's General Assembly without realizing it.

That's right, it's the Magician Association, yesterday he saw the notice of recruiting the adventure group, remembered that Ruan Xingzhu was still in Tianmen Town, and couldn't help but be a little worried about her, and after sending Lu Ji away, he decided to plan to leave home in advance, and the first destination when he went out alone this time was Tianmen Town.

In order not to let others associate and guess his true identity, Ding Kui assumed the pseudonym "Xie Peng".

There was no overnight queue in front of the Wizards' Association, and the final of the Knight Tournament was exciting, but there were fewer players involved, and there were fewer people who cared about the game, so as long as you could afford the money, you didn't have to worry about not being able to watch the game.

Ding Kui watched his surroundings for a while, and walked into the gate of the Wizards' Association without anyone noticing, and was led by the person who specially received the adventure group to the outside of the hall equipped with the portal.

An old magician with gray hair sat behind a table with a pile of jade plaques on it, and a wooden sign erected next to the table that read "Recruitment Office".

The staff brought Ding Kui to the table, and the old magician raised his head to look at Ding Kui, then lowered his eyes and said, "What's your name?"

"Xie Peng. ”

"Occupation?"

"Magician. ”

"Level?"

"The early staff magician. ”

The old magician raised his head and glanced at Ding Kui again, "Where's your magic wand?"

"I'm just short of money, that's why I came to apply, and this time I went to Tianmen Town to earn a sum of money, which is enough money to buy a magic wand. Ding Kui made up the reason in advance.

It's not that he doesn't have the money to buy a magic wand, but he doesn't have time to buy it, so he made the decision to run away from home on the fly, and if he goes to the Lu Chamber of Commerce, he may be caught by his family.

"And how do you prove yourself to be a wand-wielding magician?" said the old magician slowly.

"You wait. Ding Kui pondered silently, and the whole person floated up.

"Alright, alright," the old magician waved at him before Ding Kui could rise a few meters, "You can't fly around here at will." ”

When Ding Kui fell back to the ground, the old magician asked again, "How old is it?"

"Twenty-five. ”

The old magician finally stopped interrogating, he picked up a jade plaque and held it in his hand, and after a while, handed the jade plaque to Ding Kui, and said, "When you go through the portal to Tianmen Town, you have to hand over the jade plaque to the magician over there for inspection, and then settle the bounty with this jade plaque every day."

You are not a member of the Wizards' Guild, you are not allowed to embroider gold trim on the cuffs yourself, you are not allowed to go near the Guild's important places, and you must obey the Magicians' Guild's deployment during your time in Tianmen Town.

The portal only allows you to go through it for free, and you need to pay a fee when you come back, of course, you can choose other ways to return, and you need to return the jade plate before that. ”

"Understood. Ding Kui took the jade card.

"You go in. The old magician gestured down the hall.

Ding Kui had been here, and knowing that the hall was the portal, he strode into the hall.

Although there is a portal in Tianmen Town, it is not usually opened, and it will only be opened by the vice president of the Magic Time Association when it is critical, so the people who come to Tianmen Town through the portal are basically here to resist the beast tide.

After Cheng Deng handed over the task of presiding over the magic communication array to Ruan Xingzhu, he was arranged by Rong Ci to go to the basement of the magic tower to guard the magic array that protected the portal.
