Xuantian took out three talismans from his bosom, and said: "These are two 'invisibility talismans' and one 'divine talisman', the 'invisibility talisman' can make people in a large area hallucinate, so that they can't see the person using the talisman, and this talisman can change the range with the movement of the user's body, which means that people will 'disappear' after using this talisman." As the name suggests, the 'Divine Talisman' can make people or things that use it move quickly. After that, Xuantian stuffed an "invisibility talisman" into Li Mengluan's hand and told Li Mengluan to put it away and not lose it. So the rescue plan was so decided, and the three of them were relieved.

Song Zhendong summoned the housekeepers and subordinates closest to him to handle the preparation of the ship, and these subordinates all knew Song Zhendong's character, so they never asked the reason for what Song Zhendong ordered, which can be described as loyal. And Li Mengluan, who has studied the art of disguise, began to prepare the required materials, and Xuantian also helped together, and the two were very busy until Zi Shi returned to his room to sleep. Everything is ready now, just waiting for tomorrow.

The next day, Song Zhendong's subordinates had prepared the wooden boat by the Mianyue River. When they arrived, Xuantian and Li Mengluan began to disguise themselves as village husbands and village women. Seeing that noon was approaching, Xuantian and Li Mengluan hurriedly set off, and came to the front of the Dharma field after a short time. Seeing that there were a sea of people around the court, almost all the people on the island came to watch the execution, and Xuantian could feel their hatred for the Tang Kingdom and the pleasure brought to them by the execution of the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty from their expressions and words.

Li Mengluan saw the helpless look on Xuantian's face, so he gave him a bright smile as comfort. Xuantian was taken aback, even if he disguised himself as an ugly and vulgar village woman, Li Mengluan's smile was still so charming, people couldn't take their eyes off it, what kind of perfect temperament could it be! But as soon as he thought of the word temperament, in Xuantian's mind, Qing Ling's figure resurfaced, dancing with a sword, white clothes fluttering, and ribbons flying. Even if it is a scattered flower fairy in the Heavenly Palace, how many points can she compare?

Seeing Xuantian wandering, Li Mengluan knew what Xuantian was thinking, and pretended to be angry and said coquettishly: "Silly melon, what are you thinking about again? Pay attention to your image!" Xuantian understood, gathered his mind, and focused his eyes on the Dharma field.

After a while, more than a dozen jailers escorted the prisoner cart to the court, and five palace guards led five horses into the court. The jailer opened the door of the prisoner's car and escorted the prisoner to the center of the courtroom. Seeing that this death row prisoner was upright and dignified, about forty years old, Xuantian and Li Mengluan both expected that this person was Xue Huai, and secretly prepared. At this time, the guards firmly tied five iron chains to the five horses, and put the other end of the iron chain around Xue Huai's neck and limbs. When everything was ready, the warden waited for the execution at noon. Xuantian and Li Mengluan were very nervous at the moment, after all, it was the first time in their lives to try such a profession as robbing the law field. The two held their breath, not daring to be distracted for a moment.

After a cup of tea, the warden took a wooden skewer from the sandalwood table placed in front of him, wrote a striking red word "beheading" on it, threw it to the ground, and said loudly: "Noon has arrived, execution." ”

Xuantian and Li Mengluan glanced at each other, suggesting that the moment for the other party to act had come. Before the five horses began to gallop in all directions, the two of them flew up and pointed out in the air. The autumn water is cold, the tiger roars, the sword finger and the palm wind break through the air, and suddenly the air waves in the ten zhang radius roll, and the "buzzing" sound caused by the vacuum fluctuation is deafening. The onlookers retreated back with their ears blocked, apparently fearing that they would be injured by the waves. The shape of the green manghu merged in one place, and in an instant, the five iron chains connecting the horse and the man were all shattered. Xuantian and Li Mengluan couldn't help but say, pulled Xue Huai up and left, and flew to the bank of the Mianyue River with superb light skills.

That Xue Huai seemed to be stunned by what had just happened, and his face was full of surprise, not knowing what had happened. I only heard the prison officer behind him be furious, and shouted to the guards and jailers: "It's all a bunch of waste, don't let me chase it!" The guards and jailers were helpless to the "obscenity" of the prison beheader, so they had to chase quickly in the direction where Xuantian and Li Mengluan had escaped, shouting while chasing: "Thief, leave!"

How could Xuantian and Li Mengluan pay attention to the minions behind them, and just sprint towards the Mianyue River by themselves. After about half a pillar of incense, they finally succeeded in reaching their destination, and the two of them breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts and put Xue Huai on the boat. Xue Huai came back from his surprise at this time, his face was full of gratitude, he bowed to Xuantian and Li Mengluan, and said in the Moon Shadow language: "Thank you two heroes for saving your life." ”

Xuantian was stunned for a moment, although Xiao Xue Huai was proficient in the Moon Shadow language, he still felt that something was wrong, so he immediately glanced at Li Mengluan. Li Mengluan immediately understood Xuantian's intentions, and said in the Moon Shadow language: "Your Excellency is Lord Xue Huai, the Prime Minister of the Tang Kingdom?"

Li Mengluan used the Moon Shadow language to ask about the plan, so that people could not identify the identities of the two. But I saw the man wave his hand again and again, and said: "You must have misunderstood, I am also a resident of the island, and I was convicted only because I committed a murder..."

Before they finished speaking, Xuantian and Li Mengluan's faces changed, their hearts were bad, and they ran back without saying a word, flying at full speed. When they returned to the court, they saw that the head of a middle-aged man with a straight face had been hung on a wooden pole, and the two of them couldn't help but be disheartened when they saw this scene, knowing that this rescue operation ended in failure.

Xuantian lowered his head and was silent, while Li Mengluan gritted his teeth and said hatefully: "This must be my brother's trick, he is too cunning, it seems that our plan has already been seen through by him." ”

Xuantian shook his head and sighed: "It's useless to say anything now, let's get out quickly." Without waiting for everyone to notice the abnormality of the two of them, Xuantian and Li Mengluan hid in the dark and activated the invisibility talisman, and their figures disappeared in an instant. Pity the death row prisoner who thought he could survive, did not know how to row, and was captured by the guards again.

Xuantian and Li Mengluan came to Song Zhendong's room with heavy steps, and their mood was very low. Song Zhendong had been waiting for the two of them for a long time, and when he saw the expressions on their faces at this moment, he knew eight or nine times out of ten.

Li Mengluan bowed his head and said apologetically: "Brother used tricks to deceive us, so that the two of us mistakenly thought that the condemned prisoner was Master Xue Huai, and when we were not in the court, we took Lord Xue Huai and him..."

Song Zhendong hurriedly comforted: "Xue Huai's death must be due to the number of days, and you must not be disobeyed, so naturally you are not to blame." Xue Huai is now in the industry, which is not a good thing. ”

When Xuantian heard Song Zhendong's words, he felt a little better in his heart, and he also admired Song Zhendong's calmness. Song Zhendong thought quietly for a long time, and said: "There are two major troubles now, one of which is that the Tang Kingdom will definitely come to seek revenge this time, and war may be inevitable. Second, Li Zaixing must have begun to suspect us by now, and all our future actions will be monitored by him, and I am afraid it will be difficult to do anything. ”

Xuantian said: "Big brother said very well, we should all be careful in the future and wait and see what happens. Xuantian let out a long sigh, worried about the variables that would happen in the future.

The next morning, Li Zaixing was in a good mood, and for no reason, he promoted Cui Hao, a seventh-rank civil official who proposed to divide Xue Huai's five horses, to a second-rank officer. After the reward was over, Li Zaixing said loudly: "At present, the border of Yasukuni is very unstable, and there are many hidden dangers, which have affected the people. The barbarians have repeatedly invaded, and now that the Great Tang Kingdom is ready to attack at any time, Yasukuni is in danger! The Yasukuni army is not strong, and the two armies will certainly lose when they face each other. Therefore, I have now issued a conscription order, and all men over the age of 16 who are not disabled must serve the country and train on a certain day. If our army can be reborn, it will definitely be invincible on the battlefield in the future!"

When the ministers heard this, they hurriedly said in unison: "Your Majesty is wise. ”

However, Xuantian and the other three didn't know anything about the conscription, and when Li Mengluan was practicing boxing in the square in front of the Longyin Pavilion early one morning, he suddenly heard a commotion outside the palace, and there seemed to be a cry. was busy going out to check, but if he didn't look at it, Li Mengluan was shocked when he saw it. I saw hundreds of palace guards holding the imperial conscription order, and recruiting young and middle-aged men over the age of 16 from each family to be incorporated into the army, and the scene was very miserable. She witnessed a gray-haired old man and a burly guard pulling each other for a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, and the old man cried out loudly: "Sir, you should be merciful, grandson, he is extremely filial, if there is no him, how can my old man live alone in the future!" The guard saw that the old man would not let go of his grandson, and his anger rose in his heart, and he drew a whip from his waist and threw it down at the old man's arm.
