"Search! Search me carefully, and don't let anyone go!"

The general at the head was a burly man, sitting on a horse as if he were sitting on a foal, and he lifted his helmet to reveal a gloomy round face, and his short hair was like a steel needle.

Immediately, the team of 1,000 people divided into eight teams and spread out in eight directions, searching everywhere to see if they could find anyone.

"Boom!"

"Bang bang bang!"

"Sneer——!"

......

All sorts of voices rang out, followed by screams one after another, in harmony with them.

The short-haired general shouted with a calm face: "What's the matter?!"

A moment later, several sergeants rushed over, embarrassed, some smelling of burnt paste, some of them chilling.

"General, there is an ambush!"

"What ambush, where ambush?!"

"This ......"

"What the hell is going on?!"

"General, we don't know, so the sky changed inexplicably, and suddenly there was thunder. ”

"It's snowing over there. ”

"General, weird, let's withdraw!"

“...... Withdraw!" The short-haired general's gloomy face changed several times, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Withdraw for me!"

Everyone hurriedly gathered, but when they looked at the number of people, there were only a few dozen people, and the rest were nowhere to be seen.

"What's the matter, how come so few people come back?" a middle-aged man looked left and right, and shouted: "Withdraw! withdraw!"

His voice was like a brass bell, resounding through the brightly lit camp, and the echo of "retreat, retreat, retreat" was heard, as if in the valley.

Such a strangeness made their hearts even more furious, and the forty or so people gathered close to each other to strengthen their courage.

As veterans of the battlefield, they are extremely bold and fierce, and even if they encounter a strong enemy, their faces will not change, and they will not die.

But the situation in front of them is different, everywhere is strange, this military camp is like a devouring monster, they are in the belly of this monster.

They are not afraid of death, but they don't want to die unclear and confused.

"General, what should I do?" the middle-aged man hurriedly asked.

"Smack!" The short-haired general gave him a slap and said coldly: "Waste, what are you afraid of!"

The middle-aged sergeant touched his cheek and hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, there is a general here, we have nothing to fear!"

The short-haired general shouted: "We are iron-blooded and evil, and if we are bold, there is nothing to invade!"

The spirits of the crowd were lifted.

"Qiang ——!" The short-haired general broke off, pulled out his long knife, and pointed forward: "Rush out with me!"

"Rush ——!"

"Bang bang......" They rushed out a dozen steps, and suddenly turned into a trap in front of them.

Suddenly, the horse fell and the man flew.

After flying out, there was a clear pool of water in front of him, and after falling into the pool, he found that the water was cold to the bone, and he was frozen before he had time to urge his mind to resist.

At this time, Li Chengkong and they were in a valley, and the whole valley was silent and did not move, and occasionally horses neighed lightly.

Li Chengkong was sitting quietly in a wooden house, with Dugu Shuming in front of him, occasionally opening his eyes to look at him.

The white qi above Li Chengkong's head suddenly burrowed back into his hair, and when he opened his eyes, a trace of purple light flashed in his eyes.

He nodded with satisfaction, this hard work, cultivation is a point of refinement, and it feels very refreshing to cultivate all the time.

"Thank you. Dugu Shuming said.

Li Chengkong said with a smile: "Your Highness's words are too outward, can you reply?"

"Nope. Dugu Shuming shook his head slightly.

Her face slowly darkened.

The letter eagle she used was a different species, and its speed was like electricity, not inferior to Li Chengkong's light skills, and the distance of thousands of miles was not too far.

According to estimates, it should have come back, but it was a long time coming, obviously because Shenjing was hesitant.

Of course, that letter only poked out the situation of Tiexi Pass, and proposed that he temporarily take the command of Tiexi Pass to eliminate the bandits.

The second letter should not have arrived in Shenjing at this time.

"If the name is not right, it is not good, and if you make a rash move, not only will it be useless, but you will have it. Li Chengkong shook his head: "Your Highness, don't worry. ”

"Alas......" Dugu Shuming said: "I'm afraid it's too late!"

Li Chengkong said: "Tiexi Pass is not so easy to occupy!"

Dugu Shuming shook his head.

Hou Yan is not so easy to surrender to the enemy, and it is not the same as throwing himself into the big cloud? There is no absolute in the world.

"Hidden here for the time being, they can't find it. Li Chengkong said: "Once the holy decree arrives, I will find a way to kill Hou Yan." ”

"It's too dangerous!" Dugu frowned, not wanting him to do this.

Dayun must have been prepared for Da Yue's move, and he must have sent heavy troops or top masters to guard it.

Li Chengkong's assassination is to throw himself into the net.

"Always try. Li Cheng said emptyly.

Dugu Shuming frowned and said nothing.

The cabin suddenly fell silent, and the two of them did not speak, listening to the faint noise outside.

Suddenly escaping from the place of death, the joy of escaping death made them all excited, and they talked endlessly.

Suddenly, the sound of wings sounded.

Dugu Shuming perked up, got up and pushed open the window, and suddenly a small bird as small as a sparrow came in.

Its eyes were smart, and it glanced at Li Chengkong curiously, then jumped onto Dugu Shuming's shoulder and chirped.

Its entire body is white and flawless, except for a pair of small beads and a beak that are black.

However, the beak is black on the top and white on the bottom, so when it flies into the air, it is not visible.

Dugu Shuming untied the bamboo tube of its claws, took out a porcelain bottle from his arms, and poured out an emerald green pill and stuffed it into its mouth.

It chirped and rubbed its mouth against her white jade face.

Dugu Shuming opened the bamboo pipe, but it was a ball of yellow silk, as thin as a cicada's wings, which seemed to be only a small ball, but when it was unfolded, it was the size of two plain papers.

After Dugu Shuming saw it, his jade face was gloomy and he handed it to Li Chengkong.

Li Chengkong took it and took a look: "It seems that the emperor still doesn't trust His Highness, no wonder, I can't complain about him." ”

If anyone else is changed, he will not directly give her so much power based on Dugu Shuming's words.

After all, this is Tiexi Pass, and the stakes are very important, and if you really lose Tiexi Pass, you will have endless trouble.

"Don't believe what you should believe! Don't doubt what you should doubt!" Dugu Shuming said coldly.

"Then keep waiting, Your Majesty will change when he sees the second letter. ”

"No!" Dugu Shuming shook his head: "He is sometimes suspicious, sometimes stubborn, and will never trust me easily!"

"Your Highness, there's not much we can do, let's sit on the wall and watch. Li Chengkong said: "Look at what this Hou Yan is capable of!"

Dugu Shuming glared at him: "You have been hating your father, this is a good opportunity for revenge, right?"

Li Chengkong smiled but did not speak.

Dugu Shuming snorted and didn't say much.

——

Hou Yan sat in the hall of the Command Embassy's Mansion, the cow candle was brightly illuminated, but his face was so gloomy that it seemed to be dripping.

The short-haired general never returned, and he kept sending people to investigate.

Wave after wave of people were sent out, and at first some people went into the camp to investigate, but they never returned, and later spies only dared to observe from a distance, and they knew nothing.

The camp looked brightly lit, and there were people in it, and if you looked closely, you couldn't see it clearly.

As the two more detectives reported, his face became more and more ugly as he waved back.

An old man with white eyebrows sitting at the bottom stroked his hair and said, "Commander, I'm afraid this is a formation." ”

Several people in the hall looked over.

The old man sighed: "If it's really a formation, then it's troublesome." ”

"Formation?" Hou Yan perked up and leaned forward: "I've heard of the formation, but I haven't personally learned it, Huang Lao, you know the formation, right?"

Huang Bin shook his head: "I'm ashamed, the old man doesn't know the formation, but the old man knows who knows." ”

"Who?!" Hou Yan said busily.

"Some of the Qi practitioners of Shangqing Peak are familiar with formations. Huang Bin said: "The old man can invite the emperor, please invite the qi practitioners of Shangqing Peak to come!"

"It couldn't be better!" Hou Yan was overjoyed.
