After a period of time, out of Ying Tianfu City, Xu Baichuan took out the map and checked it, there was only one road left in his eyes, left all the way to the south city gate, and then jumped over a place called Qingyuan City, even if it was to the border of Dali, as for the place after that, the map was not recorded on it, although the map he bought was the most comprehensive, but it only recorded the territory of Dali, and did not mention anything about the rest of the places, but even so, according to his thoughts, there must be a road before the mountain, and he didn't even finish the road, and it was not yet time to talk about the border places。

Walking with Liu Yansong before, was delayed a lot of time, Xu Baichuan is monk is not afraid of these journeys, but Liu Yansong is an ordinary person, along the way there have been countless major illnesses and minor illnesses, and each time he is sick, he has to delay in place for a period of time, so he and Liu Yansong walked for more than two months before arriving at Ying Tianfu City, now without Liu Yansong's drag, Xu Baichuan is in a hurry a lot faster, usually it takes three or four days to reach the road section, now it doesn't take a day to walk, every time he thinks of Liu Yansong, he can't help but sigh, if he hadn't saved him in the mouth of the black wolf before, he must have already arrived at the border, not far from the country where the old Taoist priest said that there were many sword cultivators.

Xu Baichuan encountered a lot of crises along the way, although all of them died under his sword, but he knew that he could deal with some little monks, if the realm was more subtle, he could only flee from the wind, he thought more than once, what kind of scenery Qingyuan Country was, whether the sword cultivator could walk out openly and honestly, and not worry about the bad intentions of other monks.

Nowadays, he can encounter so many crises just in Dali, a small border country, whether it is a female ghost or a demon, he wants to put him to death, and he just wants to hold the sword in his hand well, go all the way up, to see more brilliant scenery, thinking that one day, he can rely on the sword to make the most of the scenery, and is called the great sword cultivator, and no longer has to worry about someone greedy for sword cultivation to offer a reward for the sword in his hand.

Xu Baichuan is to the border Qingyuan City is located in the place of the road, and Qingyuan City is the first city by the border, the outside of the city is full of wind and frost murderous atmosphere, the Dali Emperor once ordered, not allowed civilians to live in the Qingyuan City, to avoid the border war was accidentally injured by the siege equipment, the Dali Emperor loved the people like a son, after the holy decree came down, the city boiled, the civilians of the Qingyuan City have poured to the interior of Dali, this was an excellent policy, but at this time it had a lot of obstacles to Xu Baichuan.

The general guarding the pass looked at Xu Baichuan suspiciously, all he had seen in the past were civilians walking out, and only the grain convoy came to Qingyuan City, Xu Baichuan was the first person who wanted to enter Qingyuan City in the past few months.

Although he has the certificate in his hand, but the general of the guard of the pass thought that Xu Baichuan is a spy sent by the enemy, after obtaining the information, he wants to leave from Qingyuan City, and his thoughts are becoming more and more scattered, in the end, the general of the guard is already convinced of what he thinks, and his eyes are becoming more and more hot, since he drank and made trouble in Qingyuan City, he was assigned to the pass guard, and what he saw every day was either loess or wilderness, and occasionally a group of wild birds flew over could make him happy all day, and his bones were itchy, if Xu Baichuan was a spy as he thought, then he could rely on this merit to return to the front line to fight with the enemy。

Therefore, although the general guarding the pass heard Xu Baichuan's explanation, he only took it as a deaf ear, and now he was thinking in his heart, how to catch Xu Baichuan, and what kind of crime to be charged, in order to reflect his own merits, with Xu Baichuan to show his merits, thinking of these, the general guarding the pass couldn't help but sweat profusely, he was a battlefield warrior, because he couldn't read, he came to the battlefield with weapons to eat, but with his intelligence when he read, his fate was very different.

Xu Baichuan pulled the corners of his mouth, looking at the sword guarding the pass like a Sichuan opera changing face, he was a little speechless, and he also felt funny, if the guard general withdrew from the battlefield, he could mix a good meal by relying on his own skills, at least the major restaurants and teahouses would not be short of his food.

The more the general thought about it, the more irritated he became, and in the end, his face turned red, Xu Baichuan looked curious, puzzled: "This general, but the identity credentials of the subordinates are suspicious?"

General Guan waved his hand and subconsciously replied: "No problem, I'm just trying to weave some charges for you, so that I can go back to the battlefield to fight." ”

After the words were spoken, the general of the guard realized that he had said what he thought in his heart, and the atmosphere fell silent for a while, and the two were silent for a moment, and finally the general of the guard said first: "That's it, I'm still honestly guarding here, as for you, just go in." ”

Xu Baichuan looked at the small door that opened, and then turned his head to look at the boring look of General Guan, and sighed a little, he thought that there was only one stupid person in the world, Liu Yansong, but he didn't expect to meet the other one, the only difference between the two may be that one is a scholar and the other is a martial artist on the battlefield.

Seeing that Xu Baichuan had been looking at him, thinking about what he had just said, the general guarding the guan was a little embarrassed, so he muttered dissatisfiedly: "Looking at what General Ben has done, he is not afraid that he will arrest you as a spy and put you in the Xiandeng army as a dead soldier?"

Xu Baichuan listened to these words, shook his head helplessly, and didn't say whether he was a spy or not, even if he was, the general guarding the pass was helpless against him, after all, the cultivation realm was here, if anyone could catch him, then he didn't have to practice this sword anymore.

Xu Baichuan looked at the general guarding the pass, thought for a while, and asked softly: "This general, why are you the only one guarding this pass you guard, where are the rest of the soldiers?"

The general guarding the pass wanted to ignore it, this pass was originally no pass, since he drank and made trouble, the principal of Qingyuan City had no way to deal with him, a hard-working and thick-skinned veteran, he was not afraid, scolded and did not listen, so he simply built a small pass for him not far from Qingyuan City, and sent some people to bring him some food every day, as for wanting to drink wine and eat meat, he could only think about it, saying that he was a general guarding the pass, but in fact, he was better a prisoner.

In this wilderness, it is difficult to meet people to talk to him, the soldiers who came to deliver food had already heard that he was a character who was not afraid, and he didn't dare to talk to him at all, Xu Baichuan was the first to talk to him in the past half a month, so he was willing to say more.

Xu Baichuan was stunned after hearing this, and then a smile appeared on his face: "The general is very generous. ”

The general of the guard grinned: "Of course, no one knows the name of my cycle in Qingyuan City, and no one knows?" As long as I stand on the battlefield, the cowards of Qingyuan Kingdom will be scared to the core. ”

Xu Baichuan tugged at the corners of his mouth, and did not reply, it is understandable for the battlefield generals to boast of their merits, after all, there is no other pastime in the military camp, so he has to secretly drink some wine, and then brag to his comrades, which is also considered the norm in the military camp, for a moment he even felt that the cycle was driven here to guard the pass not because of drinking, but because he bragged too much, and he couldn't even stand the main affairs in the city.

The cycle said a lot, even if Xu Baichuan didn't respond, but when he said it, he sighed heavily, and his elated appearance suddenly dissipated.

And Xu Baichuan had already left with the road as soon as he spoke.

It's not early, so it's time to go into town and find a place to rest.

As for the cycle, after no one spoke to him, he quieted down, still guarding here, in a daze at the loess everywhere.

......

......

Qingyuan City is not very big, compared to the very wide Ying Tianfu City, it is much petite, but it also has some more iron and blood breath that Ying Tianfu City does not have, looking at the red blood stains and potholes on the city wall, Xu Baichuan has a kind of pride in his heart, smelling the smell of blood that spreads with the wind, he can't help but give birth to a tragic scene in his mind, he roughly knows why the cycle sighs because he left Qingyuan City, and the place he has guarded all his life is not far from him, and he can only look at it from a distance, no matter who it is, put himself in his shoes, and his heart will not be very good。

After the guards checked, reported the name of the place of origin, in the eyes full of curiosity, Xu Baichuan slowly walked in this border city that had been washed by the baptism of wind and frost, because of the holy decree of the Dali Emperor, all the civilians in the city had been evacuated, and many rooms were vacated, so Xu Baichuan did not spend too much effort, and easily found an uninhabited house.

Looking at the house with the door wide open, he didn't go in, just sat quietly on the big bluestone on the side, waiting for someone.

After all, he is the first Dali person in the city except for the army, especially when he enters the city at this juncture, his identity is sensitive.

He didn't wait long, he heard the sound of horses galloping, turned his head to look, a young general in a white robe was the first to come into view, quite a bit heroic, behind him were three cavalrymen in heavy armor, carrying heavy broadswords in their hands, even if they were just standing far outside, it was enough to make people daunted.

The young general got off the horse, walked in front of Xu Baichuan and looked around, and only after a long time did he say, "You are a sword cultivator!"

Xu Baichuan was a little surprised, he thought that the young general would ask him his name, place of origin, and whether he was from Dali, but he didn't expect that what he asked was not these, but bluntly said that he was a sword cultivator.

Xu Baichuan didn't hide it, and responded very happily: "I am indeed a sword cultivator, I don't know how the general found out?"

The young general is very direct: "Qingyuan City is on the border of Qingyuan Dali, so you can know a lot of things over there, compared to Dali's sword path, Qingyuan kendo is much more prosperous, so there are many people who hold swords in the rivers and lakes want to go there to learn swords, and they will naturally know if they see more." ”

Xu Baichuan nodded, quickly reacted again, and said curiously: "Why don't you recognize me as those Jianghu people?"

The young general pointed to Xu Baichuan and said: "The people I have seen in the past are all old people who have been famous for a long time, and they know that the way of the sword is hopeless and wants to go to Qingyuan Kingdom to seek swords, and you are young, and you come from this remote place in Yunzhen, and there are all kinds of demons on the road, robbers and robbers are indispensable on the road, you can walk here alone, no matter how you look at it, it is not ordinary, not to mention that sword cultivation is not a good situation in Dali, so I prefer to go to Qingyuan Kingdom." ”

Xu Baichuan looked at the young general, listened to him analyze his itinerary, but felt that he was a little different, thought about it, and asked the most critical point: "Just like the general said, if you want to jump across the border to Qingyuan Kingdom, I think the general came to me because of this, I don't know what to do?"

The young general nodded, and moved his hand to the autumn wind on Xu Baichuan's waist, he did have other meanings here, although Emperor Dali issued an order not to let any person jump across the border, but after all, this place is far away from the emperor of the sky, and the emperor of Dali will not say anything if he puts a few people in the past, even if he knows, he has nothing to do with them, and the border of Dali has to rely on them to guard, as long as it is not too excessive, it should be ignored.

Xu Baichuan also looked at the autumn breeze on his waist with the young general's hand, smiled, and said calmly: "Kill whom?"

He is a sword cultivator, and what he is best at is killing, and it is impossible for him to find him in the future to let him reason in the past, so it is better to find a few readers to read articles, so it can only be murder.

The young general didn't say the name of the person, but said sincerely: "I don't know who the person I want to kill is, I just came here to invite you, and there is someone else who wants you to do something." ”
