Autumn weather is crisp and suitable for traveling.

Dingnan City drove out a team to the south, from the point of view of the guard of honor, it still belongs to the relatively high specifications of the Great Jin Immortal Dynasty, this team has five carts, three hundred flying horses to escort the south.

This team was the envoy of the Great Jin Dynasty to the Southern Tang Dynasty, and the accompanying personnel were basically on horseback, and only in the five carts were the main and deputy envoys and the accompanying subordinates and attached personnel.

The commander of the escort team is Cui Dazhuang, the commander of the Flying Horse Team of the Divine Guard! Unexpectedly, the deputy commander is still Wang Zuonong!

For this arrangement, Wang Zuonong of course knew that it must be Sedum who said good things for him, and he couldn't help but be grateful.

Sedum didn't have the spare time to take care of this matter, but he knew that this was Hong Zhao's arrangement, so it naturally had a special meaning.

Wang Zuonong once said, "I am willing to be Sedum's attendant," Jingtian doesn't care whether there is one more or one less attendant around him!

Whether it was the housekeeper around him when he was four or five years old, or the descendants of the official eunuchs around him when he was older, he was the leader, and he actually just wanted to play with others, but the fear and fear that naturally flowed out of the eyes of those children when they looked at him made him too impressed.

So these people are followers, not friends, Sedum is very autistic for a little time, unwilling to go out, and it is also through the enlightenment of his father-in-law that he fell in love with reading.

Although no one paid attention to him in Liuyun Academy, relying on the books in the Shadow Book Pavilion, he didn't feel lonely, but deep down, the feeling of having no friends still existed.

That's why he doesn't think he'll be short of followers, and at present, the fat man riding a horse in front of him is a hardcore follower who claims to be himself.

Sedum looked out the car window, thinking about things in his head, and the two daughters behind him, Chun Tao and Xia Hua, didn't dare to disturb him.

After a while, Sedum suddenly smiled and said: "This kind of flying carriage is stable, and the carriage can probably be used to make tea on the fire, so get me some of the good tea that the old man treasured." ”

The second daughter smiled and lit the small stove, and after a while, the fragrance of tea wafted out, and Sedum drank a cup of tea and made a comfortable sound, he felt that if he traveled like this, it would not be bad.

At this time, the curtain of the carriage was lifted, and a fat face stretched in, and said: "Your Highness will still enjoy it, rub the tea and drink, rub the tea and drink!"

This guy is none other than Guan Shanhai, who is known as the hardcore follower of the little prince! He doesn't like to ride horses, and now he is sweating on his face.

"You're going to take advantage of Lao Tzu, come in. Sedum laughed and scolded.

Guan Shanhai came in with a smile, sat in the carriage with a butt, and the flying carriage was a suspended body depicted by runes, although this guy would not affect the horse pulling the carriage when he came in, but the carriage still sank downward.

Guan Shanhai, who drank a cup of tea, said: "I will arrive at Dingnan Pass tomorrow night, and the camping place has been chosen tonight, this road should be very safe, and after leaving Dingnan Pass the day after tomorrow, I will need to be in front! Your Highness does not need to worry." ”

Dingnan City is really more than 400 miles away from Dingnan Pass, according to the speed of flying horses, although walking 200 miles a day is nothing, but after all, it is in the territory of Dajin, and everyone is not worried about safety.

But Guan Shanhai knew what happened two days ago, and he interrogated those injured at the moment, so he knew some inside information.

"Don't be so fast! Walk slowly, after all, Lord Chu and Master Lu are going to Nantang for the first time, and it's not good to be too tired. The front arrangement is for Wang Zuonong and them to do. ”

Sedum needs to give Cui Dazhuang and Wang Zuonong some opportunities to perform, these two people are the people from the military arranged by Hong Zhao around him, and he also needs to give them a chance.

"Then I'll listen to you, so I'll inform Lao Cui and let him go slowly. After Guan Shanhai finished speaking, he lifted the curtain and left.

After Guan Shanhai left, Chun Tao and Xia Hua said: "The taste of this Guan is so strong!

"It's just that I don't like to take a bath. Xia Hua pouted.

Sedum smiled: "This fat man is not simple, he not only loves to eat meat, he also eats human flesh, and he is very heavy, haven't you heard?"

He was talking about several assassins captured by Guan Shanhai a few years ago, two of whom were not dead in their hands, and fell into his hands for interrogation, and he not only tortured them harshly, but also cut off the flesh of the man and woman and roasted them, and also made them eat each other's own flesh!

This is a legendary story, and the legend of the world is also to let outsiders know the ruthlessness and cruelty of this guy, but they don't know whether it's true or not.

Now that Sedum is talking about it, it is obviously true, and the frightened Chun Tao and Xia Hua are shocked, and when they see Guan Shanhai again in the future, their eyes are not right, in addition to disgust and fear.

After a two-day journey of three days, it was obvious that the mission was not in a hurry, and after camping on the road, there were also songs and dances, wine and meat, but in the evening three days later, the mission still arrived at Dingnan Pass!

From a distance, the middle section of this majestic mountain is obviously broken, and the missing piece of the mountain is as smooth as a knife chopping axe, and it is Dingnan Pass that blocks this missing valley!

This strategic place is really an artificial moat, to the west is the stretch of mountains connecting the northwest of the snowfield, to the east 5,000 miles away is a large river, this large river is a real swampy land, there is a thick fog all year round!

Legend has it that the edge of Daze is the Cold Mountain Demon Valley, which is an endless primeval forest with no roads at all, and the only passage from south to north is this Dingnan Pass.

Each section is only two miles apart, and a large bed crossbow engraved with runes is erected on the city wall! With the protection of the formation, it is really easy to defend and difficult to attack! This is a battlefield with the Southern Tang Dynasty for many years, and it is full of the smell of iron and blood.

Before the envoy came to the pass inside, this was the place where the huge military camp was stationed, and after showing the papers, he camped in the barracks for the time being.

Early the next morning, the procession of the mission passed through Dingnan Pass and headed south, and everyone got a closer look at the wall of this talkative pass.

The mountains on both sides are thousands of feet high, but now there are many caves dug into them, and there are also defensive weapons placed here, and the glowing beds and crossbow arrows are all facing the mountain path below.

After passing the three city walls, even if it officially left the border of the Great Jin Dynasty and entered the territory of the Southern Tang Dynasty, no one spoke in the entire mission along the way, and this atmosphere of slaughter affected people's emotions, and everyone was very depressed.

The horse team and the convoy passed quietly through the valley, and today he sat in the car and looked out of the window, and the dark old blood stains on the city walls and even on the mountains and roads made him silent!

The sky seemed to be very dark, and it was not until after leaving Dingnan Pass that everyone felt the smell of sunshine.
