Chapter Fifty-Eight: Attack in the Night
The waning moon is in the sky, and the night wind is cold.
On the official road ten miles away from Prison Niu Mountain, a group of people and horses walked slowly.
The two leaders rode on tall horses, and more than a dozen people behind them were all majestic and solemn, and they were wearing uniform dark purple unicorn suits, their steps were hurried but coordinated, and a three-foot-six-inch black sheath long knife hung from their waists, each of which had been tempered thousands of times, and sharpened iron like clay. This is the embroidered spring knife of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
And this line of people and horses who are orderly in the dark night is naturally the ears and eyes of the Great Zhou Emperor who is all over the world.
Among the two people who were on horseback, an older leader in a purple gold python robe suddenly asked the person who was leading the way at the forefront, "Liu Baihu, are you sure that the people of the Tianya Pavilion and the Nine Swords Gang have all broken into our realm?"
The person who led the way first was also wearing a unicorn suit, but the color was slightly darker than the dozen or so people behind him, and his belt was wider. When he heard this, he immediately turned around on horseback and said with a flattering face: "Don't worry, Lord Qianhu, this is what our two brothers have seen with their own eyes, and it is absolutely true. ”
The person who answered, named Liu Yunhe, was one of the thousands of dragon claw guards scattered in Wuling County, he was also from the Jianghu sect, after Yicheng came out of the mountain, he mixed the rivers and lakes for a few years but did not break into any fame, and then by chance, he joined the dragon claw guard. Because he knows a little about observing words and feelings, and his martial arts are not weak, he was quickly promoted to the position of 100 households. Of course, the reason why he was able to do this position was also because he spent a sum of money.
Liu Yunhe looks kind, but in his bones he looks down on those colleagues who only rely on relationships to get to the top but have no real skills, but he is still afraid of Feng Jiyao, the master of a thousand households behind him; it is said that this person's martial arts cultivation has reached the realm of transforming gods, and he also has some relationship with the Wei Commander in Yu'an City. Who is the Commander of the Guard? That's the henchman of Boss Wen, the biggest leader of the Dragonclaw Guard. With this layer of relationship, it is enough to make Liu Yunhe, who has already stepped into the realm of transforming gods with half a foot, throw his five bodies to the ground.
Seeing Feng Jiyao's brows twisted slightly, Liu Yunhe also knew that he was indeed a little reckless. After he heard the news an hour ago, he immediately reported the matter to the top boss behind him, which was equivalent to pulling Feng Jiyao out of the bed; if this matter is not done well and Feng Qianhu is offended, then his future career will be buried by himself.
Thinking of this, Liu Yunhe said with a smile: "Since the last time Lord Qianhu greeted his subordinates, his subordinates have been particularly concerned about the gangs from outside the rivers and lakes. This time, the Jiangnan Dao Nine Swords Gang and the Sichuan Shu Tianya Pavilion did not return to the Pavilion, and the reason why they entered Wuling County, Taiqing Prefecture at the same time was actually because of two people. Fang was in too much of a hurry in the adult's mansion, so he didn't make it clear to the adult, and hoped that the lord of the thousand households would forgive him. ”
Feng Jiyao waved his hand and said lightly: "It's okay, anyway, there is still a distance from Prison Niu Mountain, and it's not too late for you to talk about the reason now." ”
Liu Yunhe slowed down, kept pace with Feng Jiyao, bowed his head sideways and said: "Lord Qiyu, some time ago, we came to Dongping County a big man in the rivers and lakes, this person is Qi Hongyu, who ranks seventh on the sword list, although he is now compared to the rising star Jiang Ruhua, but it is still not to be underestimated. His subordinates also inadvertently bumped into him in the county that day, and if he wanted to change to someone else, he would definitely not recognize him, but when his subordinates were in the rivers and lakes before, they had a relationship with Qi Hongyu. At that time, I met the legendary sword god for the first time, so I remember him very well. ”
Feng Jiyao sneered: "Hmph, what seventh sword god, if you meet our seventh commander of the Heavenly List, isn't it still a matter of three or five swords." But what about this person, I have also heard a little, it is said that he is obsessed with a female devil and ruined his good future, but I don't know, who is that female devil, is it really that beautiful?"
Liu Yunhe said with a smile: "Beautiful, really very beautiful, my subordinates once looked at her in the hospital hall in our county, she seems to have some kind of disease, and her face is not very good, but even so, she is much more beautiful than the Oiran of the Qinglou in the city." ”
Feng Jiyao narrowed his eyes and said coldly: "Oh, I didn't expect Liu Baihu to have the silver to invite the Oiran to drink, haha......"
Liu Yunhe was immediately frightened and trembled, secretly scolded himself for being open-mouthed, and hurriedly explained with a smile: "My lord said that he was joking, but his subordinates could barely support their families, where did they have the money to find an oiran? After speaking, he smiled and threw a tacit look at Feng Jiyao.
Feng Jiyao naturally understood what kind of task he was talking about, it was nothing more than secretly stalking in the brothel of the Qinglou to see which court official had nothing to do and went to the Qinglou to drink flower wine, and then recorded it easily.
Feng Jiyao smiled and didn't say anything more.
After Liu Yunhe saw that Lord Qianhu's expression was as usual, he continued: "Presumably, my lord doesn't know that this sick female demon is also a female disciple who came out of the Pavilion of No Return at the End of the World, so she attracted several of her classmates. ”
Feng Jiyao nodded thoughtfully and asked, "Then do you know how many people they are here, and what are their realms?"
Liu Yunhe was a little embarrassed: "There are three of them in total, and as for what realm, the subordinates don't know very well." ”
Feng Jiyao nodded, "Well, it's really difficult for you to be able to find out so much news, it can be seen that there are hundreds of households near Tianxi City, and you are the most self-motivated, and when this matter is done, this official will definitely say a few kind words for you in front of Commander Wei." With your martial arts cleverness, it is indeed too tyrannical to live in a small county town. ”
Liu Yunhe was overjoyed when he heard this, and hurriedly thanked him again and again, if he wasn't afraid of delaying the march of the team, he would definitely jump off the horse and kowtow to Feng Jiyao a few times. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "Lord Feng, not far ahead, is the Prison Cow Mountain, what are we going to do after we enter the mountain?"
After Liu Yunhe was promoted to one hundred households, he was told by Feng Jiyao to pay attention to the battles between foreign Jianghu sects and local forces, and to report to him immediately if there was a situation, but he really didn't know why he did this.
Feng Jiyao smiled and said in a low voice: "The official won't hide it from you, these are all orders from above, you will naturally understand in the future, as for what to do after entering the mountain...... Hehe, I'll tell you the bottom again, the Wei Commander who is far away in Yu'an City, Kyoto, has an inextricable relationship with the Nine Swords Gang......"
Feng Jiyao paused at this point, and asked with a smile: "Now, what do you think we should do?"
Liu Yunhe was shocked in his heart, and after a while, he nodded and said: "The people who come out of the pavilion are all fucking poisonous, harming people everywhere, there is no good thing, Qi Hongyu and the female devil Hua Luan are not good people, they should be arrested." ”
Feng Jiyao said with a smile: "It turns out that the beautiful woman you said is called Hua Luan, this name makes people reverie, but it's a pity, it is out of the pavilion that the end of the world does not return, it is estimated that the clothes are stripped off, and ordinary people can't touch it." ”
He said that he had no intention, but Liu Yunhe, as a subordinate, had a heart, and secretly thought that he would take advantage of the chaos to capture the female devil surnamed Hua alive later, first abolish her martial arts, and then find a way to remove the poison hidden in her body, and then send it to the bed of the Lord Qianhu, so that there would be no chance of promotion in the future.
After the group entered the Prison Cow Mountain, more than a dozen followers under Liu Yunhe lit torches one after another, walked in front of Feng Jiyao and the others in a fan shape, and went deep into the forest. After walking for several miles, I didn't see a single figure.
Liu Yunhe was a little apprehensive in his heart, and he couldn't help but speed up his pace, rushed to the front, and after climbing over a big mountain, he entered a deep mountain, and walked for a long time, but he still found nothing; the group shuttled aimlessly through this lofty mountain, like a swarm of headless flies.
Since Feng Jiyao entered the second mountain, he has been with a cold face and followed behind everyone without saying a word.
The more he was like this, the more Liu Yunhe, as a subordinate, felt like a man on his back, and he was very anxious, but he was helpless.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a subordinate shouting more than ten feet away from his left hand: "My lord, two corpses have been found here!"
Liu Yunhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, and before he could make any moves, Feng Jiyao had already stepped forward quickly, and one of the dragon claw guards who was the first to find the corpse presented him with two knife-like waist cards, and said respectfully: "My lord, this was found on the corpse. ”
Feng Jiyao took the two waist cards, looked at the firelight, couldn't help but turn pale, and after examining the corpse, he ordered loudly: "Speed up, expand the range, and report any findings immediately!"
Liu Yunhe glanced at the two corpses with blue faces, and asked the subordinates who had just searched for the waist card to clarify the content on the waist card, and also knew the seriousness of the matter.
But the further he went, the more shocked Liu Yunhe became, because six corpses with the same way of death had been found, all of which were two people who died together.
At this moment, Feng Jiyao suddenly pointed in one direction and said, "It's all with me!"
When everyone heard this, they immediately ran towards the direction he pointed, and Liu Yunhe took the lead, which was an excellent opportunity to perform, but he was also extremely cautious.
After walking about a mile, Liu Yunhe saw two people fighting in the forest not far ahead. When the group approached, the two who were fighting stopped for a moment, and one of the men with the knife glanced at Liu Yunhe and the others, and then swung the knife forward again and fought with the young man in the red robe opposite.
Liu Yunhe gestured to a group of subordinates, and a group of more than ten people immediately dispersed and surrounded the two people in the field.
