Chapter 25: Coming Home
The news that the Seventh Prince killed Lu Hou in a big way spread in a very short period of time. After all, there are thousands of pairs of eyes who witnessed this incident, so don't expect these soldiers of Furong County to be able to keep this matter tight.
Spread together, naturally, the top three Oolong King, Zhang Zidong, and Shan Tianguang on the Void Realm list all fell. And the sensation caused by this incident was almost unimaginable, and it swept the entire Feng Country, especially for the martial arts cultivation world.
Even everyone speculated that if even the Oolong King, Zhang Zidong, and Shan Tianguang died, then the Forgotten Dust Dao Chief, who ranked fourth on the Void Realm List on Nanqiu Mountain, would probably be more auspicious.
The matter has come to this point, and all the people ranked on the Fengguo Realm list have all fallen.
Therefore, it was rumored that the Seventh Prince personally went out and led the troops to exterminate the murderer, in order to return peace to the Fengguo martial arts cultivation world.
This made many people in the rivers and lakes have an excellent impression of the Seven Princes, and also laid an invisible good foundation for the Seven Princes to carry out his grand cause in the future, which needs to recruit troops and horses.
The Seventh Prince only adjusted the time in Furong County for one day, and the Furong County guarded Zhou Buwei and personally sent someone to escort him back to the imperial court.
This time, although the Seven Princes had the help to kill Lu Hou, their own losses were also extremely heavy, as well as forty-five imperial court guards who died under Lu Hou's sword, these people were all Qi Realm martial artists, and the sacrifice of each one was a huge loss to the Fengguo Imperial Court.
The corpses of these royal guards must all be brought back and buried properly. And the family members of the royal court guards will also get a generous pension.
At this point, the Fengguo Imperial Court is still doing very well, and it will not chill the hearts of many soldiers.
As soon as he returned to the imperial court, the Seventh Prince immediately brought the body of Lu Hou to the coffin placed in front of the Forgotten Dust Daoist in the high hall to sacrifice the spirit of this imperial uncle in the sky.
Emperor Fengguo, who got the news, rushed to see the true face of the murderer as soon as possible.
However, when he saw Lu Hou, who was covered with arrows and looked like a hedgehog, the emperor was extremely moved.
Next, the Seven Princes asked the painter to come, and according to his dictation, he drew the portraits of Lu Hou, Beihe and Modu, of which Lu Hou was also the largest in the center, and Beihe and Modu were on both sides.
After examining the portraits of the three people, they asked them to rub the scrolls one by one and distribute them to the thirty-six cities and twelve counties of Fengguo. Whoever can provide information about these three people will be rewarded with a hundred taels of silver. And to be able to find the provenance of the three people, the reward is a hundred taels of gold.
Under the heavy reward, I believe that news will come soon.
......
While the Seventh Prince was working on this, Beihe at this moment was riding on a black horse, and behind the horse was a dilapidated trailer, which was covered with a layer of straw, on which was the body of Modu wrapped in a white cloth.
He had already left Furong County, came to Liangcheng in Fengguo, and headed towards Zhou Guoxing.
He wanted to bring Modu's body back and bring it back to the Lanshan Sect.
Beihe has been by Lu Hou's side for more than ten years, and he can't remember how many times he has gone out to kill people with Lu Hou. But he never thought that one day Lu Hou would die tragically under the random arrows, even his junior brother Mo was no exception.
It seems that what Lu Hou said to him that day was correct, no matter how powerful the Void Realm martial artist is, he must act carefully in order to live a long time.
This time, didn't Lu Hou fall under the iron cavalry of the dynasty and be besieged by thousands of troops and horses and died.
And if you really want to talk about it, the reason for Lu Hou's death may be related to one of his negligence, because he let go of the yellow bird in Puyang Temple that day.
Lu Hou kills people, and he has always cut down the grass and eradicated the roots, leaving no living mouth. But it was precisely because he let go of the oriole that day that the bird recognized Lu Hou's appearance.
Beihe finally understood why Lu Hou taught them to be cautious for twelve hours a day. Why did Lu Hou let him act without the slightest mistake. Why did Lu Hou say that it was best to leave a way back for himself in everything.
Even a master like Lu Hou will be doomed if he is not careful, so what reason can he be negligent. It is precisely because of this incident that Beihe will be extremely cautious in his future behavior, and even before making every major decision, he will leave himself a way back or retreat.
However, Beihe didn't know that his negligence was not the direct cause of Lu Hou's death, but because the Seven Princes of Fengguo were extremely thoughtful, he had already found Shan Tianguang in Furong County, and secretly bought this person, just to use Shan Tianguang to lure Lu Hou out.
Not only that, but even the Zhang Zidong and the No. 1 Oolong King were all found by him with both soft and hard, and he planned to use these three people to deal with Lu Hou.
didn't expect that even if the three of the Oolong Kings combined, they were not Lu Hou's opponents, so he personally went out and was almost killed by Lu Hou.
Just as the Fengguo Imperial Court sent people to send the portraits of Lu Hou and the others to Liangcheng, Beihe happened to leave Liangcheng and set foot on the border between Fengguo and Zhou.
Seven days later, Beihe entered the mountains of Tianyuan County of the Zhou Kingdom, and finally came to the bottom of the steep mountain peak of the Lanshan Sect.
For seven days, he has been on the road without sleep. I drank only some water along the way, and didn't even eat anything.
Although the martial artist is much stronger than ordinary people. But Rao is like this, now Beihe's face is also pale, his breath is floating, his lips are even peeling because of dryness, and even his eyes are dull, as if what can support him to get here is only the obsession in his heart.
He turned over and dismounted, carried the corpse of the fool's brother, and stepped up the stone steps leading to the top of the mountain.
After a long time, Beihe carried Modu's corpse, stepped into the gate of the Lanshan Sect, and walked on the bluestone street.
At this time, he attracted the attention of many fellow sects of the Lanshan Sect, and everyone looked at his gloomy figure, and then carried a corpse wrapped in white cloth, and they all showed surprise.
It's just that Beihe doesn't squint, and although his steps are weak, he walks forward step by step firmly, leaving a gaze looking at his back all the way.
When Beihe finished walking through Bluestone Street and came to the fork in the road, he noticed two figures on horseback coming towards him.
Beihe's gaze was still glazed, and he didn't even mean to look up. And at this moment, suddenly his feet went limp, and then he fell, and at the same time, his eyes went black, and he lost consciousness.
After reaching this step, his body could no longer support it and passed out.
The two tall horses that came on front stopped and stopped, and there were two women on horseback, these two women were the two beauties of the Lanshan Sect, Jiang Qing and Leng Wanwan.
The second daughter looked at Beihe who fell in front of her, and couldn't help but glance at each other, and there were obvious doubts and surprises in her beautiful eyes.
