Chapter 23 Zhou Wu Dynasty

"Zhou of the Zhou Wu Dynasty!"

As soon as the young man's words came out, Ma Chenan's face changed dramatically, and he exclaimed!

"Not bad!"

The young man who called himself Zhou Zishen nodded, not surprised by Ma Chen'an's change!

Not only Ma Chen'an, Xu Zhang and the others heard Ma Chen'an's exclamation, and their complexions also changed drastically, but they looked inexplicable when they left the central government!

"Why did you choose us?"

At this moment, Ma Chen'an no longer wanted to be cold to the young man before, and his tone was even more depressed and helpless!

"Since you have accepted the commission to protect me, some sacrifices are inevitable, there is no need to put on this appearance of suffering for me, even if I have something to hide, but you still accept the commission, right?"

Zhou Zishen's expression was indifferent, and he did not answer Ma Chen'an's words, but glanced at the people of the Ma Gang, and finally looked at Ma Chen'an and said slowly!

"Indeed, the temptation of this thousand taels of silver is something we can't resist, even if we know that there is danger in it!"

Ma Chen'an didn't deny it, but his expression was a little gloomy, and when the client took out a thousand taels of silver at the beginning, although he also knew that there was something wrong with it, he still took it after hesitation!

"However, since you want to know why I chose your caravan, it doesn't hurt to tell you about it at this time!"

The look of surprise on Zhou Zishen's face flashed, but he didn't expect this Ma Chen An to be simply unreasonable, and did not excuse himself by not knowing the true purpose of the commission, he glanced at his expression, and continued:

"Actually, the reason for asking you to escort me on a ride is also simple, because the strength of your horse gang is not weak but not strong!"

"In other words, we were chosen because our horse gang is not very famous in the martial arts!"

"You can understand it that way, too!"

Zhou Zishen glanced at the Ma Gang and said calmly!

"This place is less than half a day's journey from Jinshan Town, send me to Jinshan Town tomorrow, your commission will be completed, now you can deal with the affairs of those two brothers first!"

After Zhou Zishen put down this sentence, he found a place to rest by himself, and the old groom followed them quietly!

After Ma Chen'an was silent on the spot, he turned around and gave a few orders to Xu Zhang and the others, and Xu Zhang and the others, who received the order, split up in an instant, and when they reassembled, everyone held a bundle of dry wood in their hands, and came to the two corpses to stack up!

After a while, as the fire folded down, the stacks of dry wood immediately burned, and then another gust of wind blew, and the fire became even more vigorous, and the blazing fire reflected in the eyes of the caravan, and the haze in their eyes was obscured......

The night deepened, and the raging fire was extinguished and vanished, replaced by two simple burial mounds!

"Brother Xu, who is Zhou Zishen that time?

Seeing that the matter was dealt with, Liyang looked at Xu Zhang, who was pale and still wearing blood-stained clothes, hesitated for a while, and finally couldn't help but ask!

Xu Zhang raised his eyes, looked up at the starry sky, and didn't know what he was thinking, he was silent for a while, and his voice was a little distant:

"In today's world, the martial arts gang is prosperous, and there are many martial arts families, it can be said that the martial arts are respected, and some powerful sects or families have a certain right to speak, just like this Litian Gang, the Tang family!"

Although Liyang didn't know why Xu Zhang said this, he also knew that he should have a reason for saying this, so he didn't interrupt him, but waited for his next step!

"However, perhaps few people would think that this place belongs to the Zhou Wu Dynasty, and all these changes originated from the fact that fifty years ago, there was something wrong within the Zhou Wu Dynasty, which led to the subsequent authorities gradually losing their control over the world, followed by the rise of various martial arts sects and families, and finally formed the current situation!"

"Zhou Wu Dynasty, is it possible that Zhou Zishen him?"

Hearing this, Liyang also had some understanding of Zhou Zishen's identity, but what he still didn't understand was that the Zhou Wu royal family had declined, could it be that Zhou Zishen could turn everything around, otherwise Ma Chen'an and the others would change color as soon as they heard his name!

Xu Zhang glanced back at Liyang and continued:

"Originally, we didn't care much about this so-called Zhou Wu Dynasty, but a year ago, an extremely strange thing suddenly happened in the Zhou Wu Palace, when the Zhou Wu Palace emerged with colorful clouds, shrouded in the palace, and even formed a sentence, and it existed for seven days!"

"What's that?"

Liyang immediately heard that the key should be in the sentence composed of the colorful clouds!

At that time, it caused an uproar in the martial arts, but after a long time, nothing happened at all, so gradually no one paid attention to it, but I didn't expect that this sentence has really come true now, and Zhou Zishen appeared, and it also triggered the attack of the Chilling Thorn Organization!"

Speaking of which, everything is clear, and Liyang also knows, so Xu Zhang stopped talking here!

"The Chilling Thorn Organ, could it be the previous assassins?"

"Yes, this was found on them while cleaning their bodies!"

Xu Zhang took out a small token with a blood-colored spike carved on it!

"What is this?"

Liyang took the small token, looked at it repeatedly, and asked!

"This is the identity token of the Thorn Order!"

Xu Zhang replied and walked away! And Liyang glanced at the token in his hand, and after thinking about it, he threw it away, looked at the people who were obviously silent, and didn't say anything more, found a place, and meditated cross-legged!

The next day, at dawn, the group was silent, and after taking care of their bags, they went straight to Jinshan Town, but after half a day, they arrived!

"Little brother Liyang, this time thanks to your gift of wine and the rescue of the key shot, I don't say thank you, if there is a dispatch in the future, we still have a batch of goods, we will part ways here, take care!"

In front of Jinshan Town, after Ma Chen'an, Xu Zhang and others solemnly hugged their fists and said goodbye to Liyang, they entered Jinshan Town with Zhou Zishen!

As for Liyang, he watched their backs disappear into the town before he went on the road alone!

Until noon the next day, Liyang looked up at the plaque with Jinghong City written on the tower of the city gate, his eyes were full of light, he took a deep breath, and was about to step into the city gate!

"Da! Da!"

However, before he could enter the city, there was a rush of horses' hooves from within the city, followed by the dust that had been raised, mixed with the sound of invective, and rumbled out of the city!

"Strange? Why are these centaurs hurrying into the city now?"

Avoiding the flying dust, Liyang looked inexplicable, because on the previous road, he met them hurrying by, but now he saw them hurrying out of the city!
