There was a place in the Zhou Dynasty, which was connected to Sanzhou by the sea, and this place was called Nanshao, and Nanshao was the most famous in the entire Zhou Dynasty for honey. There is not a drop of honey in the palace that is not produced by Nan Shao, and Nan Shao has also gained the reputation of a honey town.

At this time, the spring is a good season for beekeeping, and if the people in the court come here to purchase honey on weekdays, they will be welcomed loudly by the people of Nanshao, but now it is the army crossing, and the people flee wherever they pass.

The three thousand iron horsemen swept the wind and dust, the iron clothes on their bodies were sonorous, and a large area of flower fields was trampled by iron hooves, and no one could stop them.

"Stop!" Li Yu shouted at the front.

Three thousand men immediately stopped moving.

"Dismount and camp!" Li Yu ordered again.

The three thousand men immediately began to work, and although the three thousand were busy at the same time, they were not cluttered, and in less than a stick of incense they had set up camp and set up a wall.

"Fence this mountain for me!" Li Yu waved his hand and looked in the southwest direction, although he was separated by a Zhuying Mountain, he seemed to be able to see the Peak City five miles away.

Li Yu knew that although the three thousand people were not airtight, these people were all highly talented in the Dao Sect, and they were all uneducated, and it was not a problem to face the ordinary army.

At this time, in the city of Xiaofeng, Lin Zheng took Yan Liang and Shen Yueting to wander aimlessly, the purpose of this trip was not to enjoy the mountains and rivers, but to come here to quell a rebellion.

"This honey osmanthus cake is so sweet, twice as sweet as all the osmanthus cakes I have ever eaten!" Shen Yueting was holding a bag of honey osmanthus cake in his hand, and he didn't know how to pour honey into it, and a lot of sweet honey would burst out when he wanted to take a bite, no wonder Shen Yueting was full of praise.

Lin Zheng remembered that there was a person who seemed to like osmanthus cakes, so he turned around and went to the pastry shop just now to buy a pack and pack it carefully.

"Pavilion Master, for whom?" Shen Yueting stepped forward and smiled cheaply, revealing a look of talk.

"Have you practiced treading the snow without a trace?" Lin Zheng squinted.

"It's not ...... yet" Shen Yueting's face was sneering, and he walked down and landed at the back of the three.

"Yan Liang, where do you say they are in this den?" Lin Zheng walked in front and asked Yan Liang sideways.

"My subordinates don't know, but it should be a safe and secret place. Yan Liang dismantled and said.

"I don't think so. Lin Zheng shook his head: "Since they can hide the army on Zhuying Mountain, it means that they can see Zhuying Mountain, and even directly let the people on the mountain see them and give orders." ”

"What do you mean, my lord?" Yan Liang looked up at the center of Peak City, a thirty-three-story tower building that was as tall as Zhu Ying Mountain.

Peak Tower.

"Keep up. Lin Zhengda strode forward, and Shen Yueting heard that he knew that he was shouting to himself, so he also quickly followed.

The peak tower, because there are many flower fields around the peak city, is built to view this beautiful scenery. When it was built, countless high-ranking officials came here to congratulate, and even the first emperor did not hesitate to cross the three states to come in person, just to see the beautiful scenery.

And the lord of the city here has also risen step by step, becoming a big official in the court, and now he has returned to his hometown to live in a mansion in this peak city.

When Lin Zheng and the three of them came to the foot of the Lookout Tower, a young woman immediately stepped forward to greet them with a smile on her face.

"Do you want to go up to the Peak Tower?" The woman smiled shyly and with a lovely attitude, I am afraid that she would have already lost her soul if she were an ordinary person, but which of the three Lin Zheng was an ordinary person?

"Naturally, it is to go up to the tower and have a glimpse of the style of this peak city. Lin Zheng smiled and nodded.

"How many floors do you want to go up to?" the woman asked softly, her soft voice tickling her heart, and she couldn't wait to pick up the woman and rush into the room to do that kind of thing.

"What's the difference?" Lin Zheng asked lightly.

The woman was surprised by the blandness of the three of them in her heart, but her face did not show the slightest: "The first layer of the peak tower can be entered with five taels of silver, and one or two will be added for each high floor, and twenty taels of silver will be used as the base for the tenth floor, and one more layer can be climbed for every two taels of silver." ”

"What about the thirty layers?" Shen Yueting patted the residue of the osmanthus cake in his hand and asked.

"The thirty layers are not silver, but gold. The woman smiled: "Thirty layers, forty taels of gold can be entered, and for each upper layer, add another twenty taels of gold!"

"Sit on the ground and start the price. Shen Yueting was dissatisfied, he walked the rivers and lakes alone, and all he got was some firewood, rice, melons and fruits, but it turned out that it was a hundred taels of gold casually?

"That's the price, you can't blame people. The woman's pitiful appearance was even more endearing.

"Then the thirty-third floor. Lin Zheng smiled lightly and took out a silver ticket from his sleeve.

"One hundred taels of gold, the cost is just right. Seeing that the silver ticket was not faked in the slightest, the woman immediately understood that the identities of the three people in front of her were not ordinary, and throwing out a hundred taels of gold casually was not something that ordinary rich armor could do.

The woman turned around and led the three of them into the first floor, where the walls were plastered with some poems and songs, and the screens were painted with cranes flying into the clouds and dragons going out to sea.

For no reason, the words vassal elegance appeared in Lin Zheng's mind.

The woman led the three of them into a wooden cuboid and closed the door.

"What is this?" Shen Yueting was puzzled.

Lin Zheng didn't know, but when he saw the rope and pulley overhead, he had a faint guess in his heart.

"Thirty-three floors. The woman said to the two big men on the side.

The big men nodded, stepped forward and grabbed the joystick, and as the big men exerted their strength, the three of them began to slowly move upward.

"I see, it's really a clever design. Shen Yueting was surprised.

"The thirty-third floor may not be a big deal for some masters of the rivers and lakes, but it is extremely difficult for us ordinary people to step on, so I asked someone to design this mechanism design. ”

The woman chuckled.

"It's not a loss of the famous tower that the emperor has visited in person. Shen Yueting admired.

During the conversation, the wooden ladder had slowly risen to the thirty-third floor, and the woman took the lead to walk out and led the three of them to the porch.

The thirty-third floor is not as wide as the first floor, there are only three or four private rooms, and the periphery is a circle of plank roads, where the scenery is excellent, you can overlook the four or six flower fields of the peak city, but the only thing you can't see is the seventh flower field that is blocked by Zhuying Mountain and broken by the three thousand iron horses.

"Beautiful. The woman walked to the plank road and looked back at Lin Zheng and the three of them: "The slave family can only see such a beautiful scenery when they occasionally bring guests up, and I hope that the guests will not go out to report them." ”

"Naturally not. Lin Zheng had already sensed that a conversation was coming from one of the four private rooms, so he chose a neighboring room and sat quietly with Yan Liang and Shen Yueting.

Coincidentally, the windows of the two private rooms are far away from Zhu Yingshan.

"Let Li Yu begin. "Lin Zheng took a sip of the best honey wine, and tasted it with a sweet aftertaste with the unique flavor of Peak City, but it was much worse than the green plum wine brewed by the Heavenly Master Pavilion.

Yan Liang took out a pink lotus flower from his arms, and the elegant fragrance immediately spread, such a lotus flower would be a treasure wherever it went.

But Yan Liang didn't care about pity for the fragrance and jade, and crushed the lotus flower with a pair of big hands.

At the same time, an equally pink lotus flower in Li Yu's hand instantly withered, as if it had lost its vitality and turned yellow.

Li Yu saw that the lotus flower was withering, as if he had received an order, and looked at the miscellaneous army that found that his three thousand iron horsemen had already arranged the line, and took out the folding fan from his arms and shook it gently: "Dismount." ”

The three thousand iron horsemen suddenly jumped off their horses and fell to the ground.

"Kill!" Li Yu hissed.

The drums sounded, and three thousand iron horsemen held black iron spears and charged mercilessly towards Zhu Yingshan.

The footsteps moved, and the entire Zhuying Mountain seemed to tremble slightly, although there were 10,000 soldiers on Zhuying Mountain, no one dared to lead people to charge and shake the three thousand iron horsemen who rushed like beasts.

Looking at the peak tower, Yan Liang threw away the shattered and Dilian, and Li Yu started to act, and he should also make a move.

"Celestial Master, please instruct. Yan Liang pleaded.

Lin Zheng smiled slightly and drank all the honey wine in the cup.

Yan Liang walked out of the room with his sword in his hand, his face was as cold as iron, cold and ruthless, and his intention was already clear.

Laugh down a glass of wine and kill people in the city.

In the next room, a middle-aged man and an old man were drinking opposite each other: "The Zhou Dynasty is weak, and it is really a nest to let these Jianghu warriors not move a single soldier to divide one side, wait for me to ascend to this throne to see how I clean up these chaotic reckless people." ”

The middle-aged man was in high spirits, and he really had a bit of heroism after a big drink.

The old man smiled slightly: "This world is far from being so simple, the Zhou Dynasty did not send troops because it was weak, but there must be other reasons, I think it should be the national teacher Li Jiunian who coerced the Son of Heaven to order the princes, just for pleasure." ”

"Then I will be beheaded together with that Li Jiunian, with a master like Liu Lao to help me, wouldn't this world be at my fingertips?" the middle-aged man smiled arrogantly.

The old man known as Liu Lao smiled and didn't accept it, saying that he was fighting for the world, he was just using the name of the uprising to take advantage of the weakness of the Zhou Dynasty to stop some more heroes in the world to build momentum for himself, so as to establish a sect of his own, compared with the world, he is not a master.

"Are you drunk?" Liu Lao saw that the middle-aged man did not speak, thinking that he was drunk, and was about to get up and bring him back, but out of the corner of his eye, he suddenly glanced at Zhu Yingshan in the distance.

"How come?" Liu Lao looked at Zhu Yingshan in surprise, at this moment, it was actually a fire, the fire had spread to the mountainside, and it seemed that none of his 10,000 troops were spared.

"How come?" Yan Liang appeared behind the old man like a ghost, and when a sword stabbed out, the old man couldn't avoid it.

"You should have thought about your end. Yan Liang drew his sword, and the old man fell on the table.

"Huh?" The middle-aged man sat up suddenly: "You, are you drunk?"

There was another flash of cold light in Yan Liang's hand, and the middle-aged man's eyes widened but he couldn't say a complete word, and his throat was sealed by a sword.

On the first floor of the Peak Tower, the woman in light veils who had previously taken Lin Zheng and the three of them to the top floor also noticed the sight of Zhu Yingshan and fled towards a mansion in the city in horror.

When he came to the court with all his might, he was already drenched in sweat, and when he leaned against the wall and walked into the master's study, he saw the man who terrified him.

"To condone an uprising is treason, and to be beheaded according to the law. Yan Liang stood in front of an old man with a sword, and this old man was the one who finally returned to his hometown because of the rise in the middle of the Peak Tower.

The old man didn't show the slightest surprise at Yan Liang's appearance, he slumped in his chair: "You don't understand. ”

The old man's voice was a little hoarse, he didn't cultivate martial arts at this time, and his life was about to reach the end: "Li Jiunian has gone crazy, he has never been loyal to the Zhou Dynasty, he is only loyal to the first emperor." He's gone crazy and I have to stop him. ”

"You've failed. Yan Liang said lightly.

"He's still very strong, and I'm too old to move, I've restrained him for decades, and now I don't have the strength anymore, please give this letter to your pavilion master, I haven't married me in my life, and I don't have anything to do, you kill me and leave." The old man trembled and handed Yan Liang a letter, and then closed his eyes and waited quietly.
