Chapter 208: Extraneous Branches
The Tenryu faction didn't stay in Ayutthaya for long, and it was supposed to take two days to replenish the needs of the long trip, but because of the Naoki family, everything needed was prepared in half a day.
After noon on the second day, Jiao Tang sent two people to stay in the courtyard, and the rest of the people walked out of the city and returned to the familiar sea ship.
The sea ship did not anchor for a long time, but the disciples didn't care, but in Elder Jiang's house, Meng Shan was a little anxious.
"Uncle Shi, the entourage of His Royal Highness King Naping has all returned to the ship, but King Ping Hongan and two entourage, after going ashore with everyone yesterday, have not been found so far. The disciples sent out to look for them have also returned, and there is no trace of the three of them. ”
Elder Jiang sat on the couch, frowned slightly, and said in a deep voice, "There was a lot of chaos in the city yesterday, and it is inevitable that something unexpected will happen. Send disciples to continue the search, and if you don't see him return tomorrow, you won't wait!"
Elder Meng bowed down and said yes, and was just about to leave, when he was stopped by Elder Jiang: "If there is an accident in that Hong'an, I'm afraid you won't be able to do it." It's just an idle prince, and it's not the old man's turn to look for him. What's more, this sea ship is the foundation of our travel, and the old man will not leave here easily. If you go and invite Lin Yi to come to me, I'm afraid I'll trouble him again!"
After the half-pillar incense, Lin Yi walked out of Elder Jiang's room with a smile on his face, just because he had three more Qi Gathering Pills in his hand.
This Elder Jiang didn't know anything about Lin Yi, but he didn't want to give instructions in vain, he had said that he would give a big gift first, but it turned out to be a Qi Gathering Pill that could only be used in the later stage of Qi training. Elder Xu Shijiang knew that his cultivation was hopeless, so he couldn't bear to cut his love. For the disciples in the early stage of Qi cultivation, the Qi Gathering Pill was regarded as a treasure, and Lin Yi only got three grains from the ancestor Xuanyuan Zhenren. This is also a great gift for him.
Walking onto the dock again, Lin Yi looked at Ji Tang and Yu Zixian who were following him, and said, "The direction where Hong'an went yesterday has been ascertained, I'll look for it, and you two will wait in the big city!"
"Lin Yi, wouldn't it be better for you and me to go together, and we can take care of each other. Ji Tang thought for a while and said. The meaning of Lin's words is self-evident, he and Yu Zi are a drag first.
"This ......" Lin Yi was a little embarrassed, the three of them together, maybe it was convenient to take care of it, but it made him feel constrained.
"Senior Brother Lin, it doesn't matter if the prince can't be found, you and I can just talk all the way!" Yu Zixian laughed, couldn't help but say, raised his feet and walked forward.
After seeing that the two were unwilling, Lin Yihao followed him, walked through the big city, and walked north.
The red sun was scorching overhead, and the dirt road under his feet was dusty, and he didn't take two steps, Yu Zixian shouted impatiently: "It's so hot, you have to do a light job." Senior Brother Lin, when did you learn my inner door light skills? The 'Nine Transformations of the Dragon Movement' you performed yesterday is even more clever than my master!"
Ji Tang saw sweat on his forehead, and he was similar to what Yu Zi thought first. In this unfamiliar place, it is difficult to find three lost people, and there is no local guide, which is also a human move. However, Elder Meng asked the two of them to follow Lin Yi, could it be that Lin Yi could find someone?
Hearing Yu Zi mention the Nine Changes of Longxing first, Ji Tang's interest also came, and said: "Lin Yi's Nine Changes of Longxing is very wonderful, I don't know which master in the sect is under his tutelage?"
If it weren't for the two of them, Lin Yi would have used the Wind Resisting Technique early in the morning and left. Walking along the dirt road like this, staggering forward, where are you looking for someone, you are clearly wandering.
Seeing that the two of them mentioned yesterday's incident, Lin Yi stopped, looked at the two behind him with a wry smile, and said, "I have seen Mu Zhangmen perform it, but it has not been taught. What's the matter, are you two going to be searched?"
Yu Zixian smiled and shook his head, obviously not believing Lin Yi's resignation, he grinned and said: "The language here is difficult to understand, and if you are not familiar with the place, where can you find that Hong'an?
Seeing that the two of them were not very interested in finding people, but were very interested in their martial arts, Lin Yi shook his head and smiled: "Then you two will move forward with me to perform light skills, and it will not be too late to talk slowly!" Before the words fell, regardless of the pedestrians on the dirt road, his body had floated up lightly and ran out of the distance. Seeing this, Ji Tang and Yu Zixian suddenly became victorious, and they showed their bodies and followed closely.
The divine sense was released, and it was in full view within a radius of five or six miles. And there are many mountains here, the weather is very hot, and there are not many places to stay in people. According to the report of Hongan's subordinates, the three of them were separated from the city yesterday and came to the north, so it should not be difficult to find the three people. Lin Yi's move was no different from Ji Tang's two, and he was just doing his best, not to mention that he didn't have much of a good impression of Hong'an. It's just that the personnel are also different, since he has taken Elder Jiang's Qi Gathering Pill, he can't be perfunctory.
Lin Yi deliberately left strength under his feet, causing Ji Tang and the others to chase after him, but they were always so far away that it was difficult to get close.
Running all the way down like this, more than 20 miles down in a blink of an eye, Lin Yi turned around and ran under a big tree on the right side of the fork in front.
A group of locals gathered under the tree, and in the open space between the crowd was a man who was being supported by an old man drinking water with a clay pot in his hand. Seeing Lin Yi approaching, the crowd parted ways.
Lin Yi frowned and was silent in thought. Ji Tang and Yu Zixian came sweating profusely, and when they saw the people on the ground, Yu Zixian exclaimed in surprise: "Isn't this Hong'an?"
The man on the ground, dressed in light silk covered with dust, with a few cracks on it, was also smeared with stains on his face, and his hair was stranded with only ribbons and no beads, and his expression was embarrassed. Seeing that it was Lin Yi and the three of them, he struggled to sit up in surprise, and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Three good brothers are here to save me?"
Ji Tang walked forward, thanked the old man, helped Hong'an up, and said, "The three of us are looking for you, you are fine, why did you come here and become like this? And your two entourage?"
Hong'an came before he burst into tears, and Chong Ji Tang choked up: "Thank you three good brothers, my body is fine, it's just due to fright, I drank some water, and I'm much better." If it weren't for the three of you, I'm afraid you and I would never see each other again."
Yu Zi first persuaded the onlookers to leave, Hongan took out some gold leaves from his arms and dispersed, and the locals left happily. Under the big tree, only the four of them remained.
"Hong'an, don't be sad, if you have something to say, come slowly!" Ji Tang asked Hong'an to sit down again, he picked up the crockpot and was not polite, poured a few sips, and ran down in one breath, but he was tired, just to take a rest.
"Give me a drink, I'm exhausted. Senior Brother Lin, why don't you even sweat!" Yu Zixian sat down and begged for the crockpot in Ji Tang's hand, but when he saw that Lin was not shocked, his expression was as usual, and he cried out in surprise.
Lin Yi ignored Yu Zixian, put his hands behind his back, quietly looked at Hong'an and asked, "Hong Gongzi, is it the accident between Hongbao and Bai Qianchuan that caused you to be like this?"
Hongan wiped his tears, he had no former demeanor, and said pitifully:
"Thank you Brother Lin for inquiring, here's the thing, yesterday you and I entered the city together, I waited for a restaurant to eat, but unexpectedly there was a sudden chaos in the city, and it was rumored that we would kill all the people of Shangguo. My guards blocked the locals who came to harass me, and Hongbao and Bai Qianchuan escorted me and fled. The retreat has been blocked by those soldiers, but Hongbao still has to retreat back and forth, but fortunately, Bai Qianchuan is loyal to the lord, saying that Hongbao has a hidden evil intention. I listened to Bai Qianchuan's words and went out of the city to take refuge first.
When we were about to leave the city, we were chased by the soldiers, so we had no choice but to flee along the way. When you arrive, you spend the night in a farmhouse in the countryside in order to return at dawn. Who knew that in the middle of the night, Hongbao wanted to hold me and dedicate it to the Fusu people, and Bai Qianchuan saw through it. And Hongbao said that Bai Qianchuan wanted to plot against me, and the two of them argued, and when they were fighting, I escaped alone. In the middle of the night, he panicked and fell into a mountain stream, and finally climbed out, but he couldn't find the way he came, and under hunger, he fainted on the side of the road and was rescued by this group of mountain people. Luckily, they don't know who I am, so you waited to find me. God is pitiful, my life should not be extinguished!"
After listening to Hong'an, the three of them realized that it was caused by a chaos yesterday.
Ji Tang and Yu Zixian glanced at each other and looked at Lin Yi together. They secretly said that as long as they found this Hong'an, no one wanted to ask more about his entourage.
Lin Yi thought for a while and said, "You wait here for a while, I'll go find the two of them!" Dropping a sentence, he ignored Hong'an, and his body was already twenty zhang away. Ji Tang and Yu Zi looked first, and only a faint figure remained in the distance.
The two shook their heads and smiled bitterly, only then did they know that when they ran all the way, Lin Yi was deliberately letting them.
While Hong'an was speaking, Lin Yi's divine sense had already found Hongbao and Bai Qianchuan. After galloping four or five miles to the east, in a dry mountain stream, two bloodstained people were fighting to the death.
Hongbao held a long bright silver knife and slashed towards Bai Qianchuan like the wind. And Bai Qianchuan didn't have a weapon in his hand, but he wore a pair of gloves made of gold wire, and he didn't dodge or dodge the incoming long knife, grabbed it with five fingers, and tore the opponent's clothes with a sharp whistling sound.
Hongbao dodged and dodged, snorted, and the place where his clothes were torn was a rainbow, and the long knife in his hand slashed at Bai Qianchuan's arm, splashing sparks.
Obviously, Bai Qianchuan's arm also had something invulnerable. The long knife was so powerful that although it couldn't cut into his arm, it also made Bai Qianchuan scream in pain, his eyes were cold, his face was hideous, and he danced his arms close to him.
"You've had enough!"
Lin Yi stood on the mountain rock on the side, and when he saw that the two were fighting endlessly, he didn't notice his arrival, so he shouted coldly.
The two of them were startled and hurriedly jumped away.
"Brother Lin came just in time, this Hongbao is the master, help me capture it!" Bai Qianchuan exclaimed with surprise on his face.
Hongbao didn't have time to talk to Lin Yi, and scolded angrily: "You fart, you are going to plot against His Highness, but the thief shouts to catch the thief, I will kill you!"
Hongbao raised the silver knife and slashed towards Bai Qianchuan's head.
"Hmph! It's been half a day, why don't I stand well! If you want to kill me, you can come!" Bai Qianchuan made a mistake with his arms, his body turned around, and he dodged Hongbao's long knife, and then took the opportunity to punch his waist.
Hongbao's long knife fell short but was not in a hurry, his wrist flipped, the long knife suddenly slashed back, Bai Qianchuan was so frightened that he jumped back, the knife wind slashed over his shoulder, and a string of blood beads burst out.
Bai Qianchuan grinned in pain, his eyes showed murderous intent, and he was just about to rub his body close to Hongbao to kill, but he suddenly felt the wind around him tighten, and his neck was pinched, and then the meridians around his body suddenly became numb, and then he rose into the air and fell a few feet away.
