Chapter 72 The fire in Qingzhi City passed the message, and Tianxin Louwen knew about it

The night breeze blows, the clouds and the moon close, and the whole land is shrouded in darkness.

Southern Qi border pass, Tong Yao Province Qing Cheng City.

At this moment, there was a curfew, and there were no pedestrians on the road, when suddenly a rapid sound of horses' hooves resounded through the street, and more than a dozen knights galloped on horseback. Several patrolling soldiers rushed to hear the sound, but when they saw the knight's attire on the horse, they immediately flashed to the side and let them gallop by.

Tianxin Building, known as the first green building in Qing Cheng City, is very famous in the entire Tongyao Province.

However, at this moment, the night is dark, except for the prostitutes who stay overnight, there are no outsiders in Tianxin Building.

This group of knights galloped all the way, as fast as lightning, and suddenly the leading knight raised his hand, and more than a dozen horses stood up at the same time, and stopped in front of the gate of Tianxin Tower.

The knight on the horse turned over and dismounted, and the movements were uniform, and more than a dozen war horses were silent, and there was no superfluous movement in the whole process.

With such a big formation outside the door, the turtle slave who was on vigil had already heard the movement, and when he lay on the crack of the door and looked at it, he was taken aback.

There were a total of 16 people standing outside the door, except for one man with a cloak covering his body, and the other 15 people were dressed in sackcloth and leather armor, with a ghost face covering his face, shouldering two spears, straddling a saber at his waist, and a small diamond-shaped shield tied to his left arm. This costume is well-known in Tongyao Province, and it is the Mai Army of Yuwen Junxun, one of the six leaders in the southwest.

Speaking of the Mai Army, they also have a title, called the Filial Piety Army! It is rumored that in the Three Kingdoms melee that year, 10,000 cavalry of the Tiande Horn Antelope Department besieged Eagle Cliff City, the city lord of Eagle Cliff City asked for help from various armies, and the five reinforcements were sent together, all of them were defeated by the Horned Antelope Department halfway, when Eagle Cliff City fell into despair, the southwest corner of the smoke and dust were billowing, Yuwen Junxun led five hundred pro-troops to rush into the enemy camp, among the thousands of troops, smashed the big tent of the Chinese army, and killed the general of the Horn Antelope Department, and the siege of Eagle Cliff City was relieved, and more than 300 people were killed in the battle of 500 pro-troops, and less than 200 remained. Yuwen Junxun kissed Mai for the fallen soldiers Dai Xiao, the whole army followed suit, although later the Mai Army was restored, re-recruited 500 people, but their military uniforms have always been Mai style, since then this army has been renamed Xiaoyi Army, the people of the southwest are called Mai Army.

The five hundred Mai army crisscrossed the battlefield, invincible, tens of thousands of enemies died in their hands, and gradually the original meaning of the Mai army was forgotten by the people, and they became the ghost envoys of the underworld who gave the enemy a funeral in the mouth of the people in the southwest of Southern Qi. When it comes to the Mai Army, in addition to the recognition of their combat power, everyone is more deeply afraid.

Mai Jun is Yuwen Junxun's pro-army, and he suddenly came to Tianxin Tower at this moment, and immediately scared the big and small people in the building.

Hearing that the door of Tianxin Tower was knocked on by these terrible Yamas, the old bustard hurriedly opened the door with a few turtle slaves. As soon as he looked up, more than a dozen hideous ghost faces were neatly lined up in front of him, and everyone was immediately shocked and scattered, and they didn't dare to look at it directly.

"Who's in charge?" asked a Mai sergeant, his voice as cold and unforgiving.

The old bustard trembled and said, "Old... Old woman... The old woman is!"

Mai sergeant said: "Except for Meixiang Pavilion, drive all the prostitutes away!"

The old bustard was embarrassed: "Master Jun, this... I'm afraid this is not good? Everyone has paid for it, and besides, in the middle of the night, there is a curfew outside..."

Sergeant Mai's eyes were cold: "Either it, get out, or die!"

was glanced at by the Mai sergeant, the old bustard suddenly fell into an ice cellar, and he couldn't care about anything else, and said in a trembling voice: "Military master, rest your anger, military master rest your anger, horse... Do it now!"

After saying this, the old bustard hurriedly beckoned his men to go to various rooms to call people.

The Mai sergeant took out a silver ticket and threw it on the table, saying, "This is five thousand taels of silver, which is considered compensation for you." Remember, tonight's events must not be passed on in the slightest, otherwise ......"

The old bustard shook his head and hurriedly said: "Don't worry, don't worry, don't worry, we will never confide in half a word." However, these overnight masters, you, you also know, there are many people, and I can't control them. ”

"Take care of your own people! no one else needs to take care of you!" Sergeant Mai said coldly.

The old bustard responded and hurriedly flashed aside. Sneaking a look at the silver ticket on the table, the old bustard was secretly happy. Five thousand taels is not a small amount, although I was a little frightened tonight, but I made a fortune, it's worth it, it's really worth it!

Not long after, a commotion came, more than a dozen benefactors staying in Tianxin Building were called up from the bed, at first they didn't know the reason, they were naturally angry, furious, but then they were frightened by the name of the Mai Army, and quickly put on their clothes and came downstairs.

Sergeant Mai took out a piece of white paper and pen and ink from the table next to him, and looked at the crowd: "Everyone who goes out, everyone writes their names on this piece of paper and puts their handprints! Whoever dares to deceive, once it is verified, will be killed! After going out, the events of tonight are not allowed to be spread outside, otherwise, there will be no forgiveness!"

Everyone present was so frightened by the Mai sergeant that their legs were weak because of the two "killings" in a row, and they trembled and wrote their names on the paper and pressed their handprints. After everyone finished writing, Sergeant Mai picked up the paper and glanced at it, and said coldly: "Get out of here!"

Everyone suddenly ran out like an amnesty, and in a blink of an eye, except for the people in Tianxinlou, the rest of the people were gone.

The Mai sergeant at the head asked his subordinates to close the door, turned his head and said to the old bustard, "Take us to Meixiang Pavilion!

The old bustard even claimed that it was, and led everyone upstairs with trepidation, and every few steps, two Mai sergeants consciously stayed behind to stand guard, and finally only the Mai sergeant who was the leader accompanied the mysterious man in a cloak to the door of Meixiang Pavilion.

The Mai sergeant glanced at the old bustard and said, "You go." ”

The old bustard nodded and agreed, and his little feet flew fast, and he disappeared in a blink of an eye.

The Mai sergeant turned around and bowed to the cloaked man: "My lord, do you want your subordinates to accompany you in?"

The cloaked man shook his head, his voice crisp and pleasant, "No need. ”

As he spoke, he didn't knock on the door, but pushed the door in. Sergeant Mai closed the door, and then stood by the guards, not even looking into the room the whole time.

The candles in the room are bright, but there is no vivid and beautiful scenery. A middle-aged man sat quietly at the small table, and a delicate woman fell asleep on the bed.

"Why do you want to meet in such a place? Do you know that it will cause me quite a lot of trouble?" the cloaked man lifted his hood with his hand, revealing a cold and handsome face. This man looks to be in his forties, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, a slashed face, a high nose, and a wisp of beard under his chin.

The middle-aged man stretched out his hand and poured a cup of tea and pushed it to the opposite side: "Yuwen Kui is the leader of Tong Yao, it can be said that he covers the sky with one hand, what else can make you feel troubled?"

As soon as these words came out, the identity of the hat man was self-evident, it was one of the six leaders of the Southern Qi Dynasty, Yuwen Junxun, who ruled Tong Yao Province.

Yuwen Junxun was silent, sat opposite the middle-aged man with a robe and glanced at the woman on the bed.

The middle-aged man smiled slightly: "I drugged the wine, and she can't hear our conversation now." ”

Yuwen Junxun snorted coldly: "The owner of the T-shaped house of the dignified fire department, the Great Sage of Huoyun, will also use this kind of small means?"

The fire department is responsible for hooking up the martial arts, and the good hands in the department are like clouds, and it is rumored that the four owners of the fire department have martial saint cultivation, among which the T-shaped house owner is the highest, and the holy name is Huoyun. For a long time, he has been in charge of the communication between Feng Yang and Yuwen Junxun, and if the great sage martial artist wants to hide his whereabouts, naturally no one will be able to see through it.

At Yuwen Junxun's ridicule, Yan Huo smiled, didn't care at all, and said straight to the point: "Don't talk too much, Master Hou ordered me to send you something, and after you read it, you won't be so cold to me anymore." ”

As he spoke, the fire reached out, and a neatly folded envelope appeared in his palm.

Yuwen Junxun stretched out his hand to take it, then frowned, took out a brocade handkerchief from his sleeve, and put it above his hand before pulling out the letter. Seeing this, the fire couldn't help but laugh.

As a general who once personally rushed to the battlefield, Yuwen Junxun has a well-known characteristic, that is, he has a habit of cleanliness. But this cleanliness habit only appears in normal times, and when he really goes to the battlefield, Yuwen Junxun will be like a completely different person, cold-blooded and ruthless, regardless of life and death, and his murderous intent is irrepressible, like a crazy demon. Yuwen Junxun has a nickname, which is called "Cold-blooded Guanyin" (Guanyin is considered to be a man), which refers to his two different states inside and outside the battlefield. The battlefield is cold-blooded and ruthless, and the battlefield is as holy as Guanyin. It's not a derogatory term, but Yuwen Junxun doesn't like the name, so only a few people dare to call him that to his face, and Yanhuo is one of them.

Yan Huo naturally knew about Yuwen Junxun's quirk, the secret letter was stained with the blood of the messenger, but he deliberately folded the letter paper and hid the blood stains on it, in order to see Yuwen Junxun make a fool of himself. He has been dealing with Yuwen Junxun for a long time, and the relationship between the two is also friend and foe, Yuwen Junxun sneered at him, so he tried to return the color. However, one of the two is the leader of the Southern Qi Dynasty, and the other is the owner of the Fire Department, and the two sides are in a cooperative relationship, so there will be no grievances because of this.

The fire slumped on its side in the chair, its right hand tapping lightly on the tabletop, looking leisurely. On the other side, Yuwen Junxun glanced at him coldly, shook the letter paper in his hand, and a bright red seal suddenly came into view.

Immediately afterwards, with a hula, Yuwen Junxun stood up suddenly, and his face changed drastically.

Hearing the vision in the room, the Mai leader at the door suddenly pushed the door in, the saber on his waist had been pulled out halfway, and a pair of eyes looked at the fire sitting opposite. Maijun was loyal to Yuwen Junxun, even if he knew that the other party had a great sage cultivation, he still did not hesitate at all.

Yuwen Junxun turned his head and glanced at the Mai leader, and shook his head slightly: "It's okay here, you go out first!"

The Mai leader immediately put away his sword and retreated.

The door closed, Yuwen Junxun looked at the fire, and asked in a low voice, "Where did you get this secret letter?"

Xuan Huo shook his head: "Hou Ye didn't say anything when he handed it over to me, he just said to hand it over to you, and you will naturally understand." ”

Yuwen Junxun was silent for a moment, and said: "You help me turn back to Hou Ye, Yuwen Junxun is here to thank you! In addition, you tell Hou Ye that I know what to do." ”

After speaking, Yuwen Junxun folded the secret letter, thought about it and wrapped it in a brocade hand, stuffed it into his sleeve, and then turned around and opened the door and walked out.

I only heard the sound of footsteps outside the door, and the sound gradually spread away.
