Recently, too many things have happened, too many people have died, and an unknown panic has spread all over Zongzheng's body.

Zong Zheng looked at the bright moon in the sky, and then looked at the army that was about to leave for the north, and couldn't help but be upset, so he wandered around the camp to relieve his worries.

The more I thought about it, the more troubled I became, and there was a moment when Zong Zheng found that he didn't seem to be the original self anymore, since he came out of the fairy forest, everything seemed to have changed, he was no longer the pure self he was before, more helpless, more sentimental.

This kind of complicated thoughts have been haunting Zong Zheng's heart, mixed with inexplicable panic, Zong Zheng feels at a loss and has no sleepiness.

In the middle of the night, the army took advantage of the dark night led by Dong Wenbing to Fuling to the north, and the remaining soldiers were also on alert and defensive in an orderly manner under Liu Bingzhong's dispatch.

Watching the army march out of the camp gate, Zong Zheng couldn't help but feel a feeling, suddenly the cold poison attacked, his hands trembled, Zong Zheng quickly hid in the dark, struggled to take the medicine bottle on his body, poured out a pill, immediately stuffed it into his mouth, and swallowed it in his stomach.

After a while, the chill subsided, and Zong Zheng felt much more comfortable, carefully weighing the medicine bottle in his hand, only to notice that there was not much left of the pill.

The years are colorful, Zong Zheng is calculating, and there have been more than half a month since he came out of the Beauty Valley, and it has been some time in the Mongolian army.

In the days of the Mongolian camp, Zong Zheng was bored most of the time, and now the Mongolian army is about to divide his troops to the north, everything is going smoothly, Zong Zheng thought, if he successfully leads away those martial arts people, then everything is considered meritorious, then he is one step closer to his goal, and there are not many pills left, so he plans to resign to Kublai Khan, and wants to take the opportunity to lead away the martial arts people to return to the Valley of Beauty, in order to have the next opportunity.

In the moon and clouds, the breeze was slow, and after the night was peaceful, Zong Zheng and Liu Bingzhong felt a little calmer.

In the early morning of the next day, Zong Zheng quietly came to Kublai Khan's secret tent to ask for resignation, and when he saw Kublai Khan, he said.

"Now, the army is safely divided to the north, and the king also safely avoids the assassins, Mei left to lure away those martial arts people, and I don't know when I can see each other again, so I came to resign. ”

Kublai Khan remembered all the previous things, and suddenly felt ashamed, so he said: "Mei Shaoxia is strong in martial arts, why don't you stay with the army to help me?"

Zong Zheng took a deep breath and replied: "Military life is not my pleasure, please don't force the king to stay." ”

Kublai Khan saw that Zongzheng had made up his mind, so he only said: "Mei Shaoxia has made up his mind, he will not force him to stay, the grace of saving his life has not been reciprocated, if he needs my help in the future, he must inform him, remember, this door of this king is willing to be open for Mei Shaoxia forever." ”

Zong Zheng nodded and said, "Tell you certainly, king, farewell." Then he resolutely left the tent.

Kublai Khan looked at the figure of Zong Zheng leaving, and when he saw such a talent leaving, he couldn't bear it, and couldn't help but hold a trace of regret.

At this moment, General Zhang Rou and General Dong Wenbing had quietly led the troops north, General Zhang Xi was still seriously injured, and Zhang Hongyan was inconvenient to show up, only Zhang Honggang learned that Zong Zheng was leaving, so he personally rode a horse to see him off.

When Zong Zheng walked to the gate of the camp, he heard someone shouting behind him: "Mei Shaoxia, please stay." When he looked back, he saw that it was Zhang Honggang, so he stopped and stopped.

When Zhang Honggang came to Zong Zheng, he immediately dismounted and said to Zong Zheng,

"Mei Shaoxia, why don't you say hello when you want to leave, fortunately, the king informed me in time, otherwise I wouldn't be able to give you a ride. ”

Zong Zheng looked at Zhang Honggang, with a trace of warmth in his heart, smiled and explained,

"The army has been divided into troops to go north, and the task on your body is not light, so I didn't tell you when I thought about it!"

"Then Mei Shaoxia is outside, you saved my father's life, and I haven't had time to repay it, I'm really ashamed. Zhang Honggang responded, a trace of shame flashing in his eyes.

"Don't think like this, on that day, if you give me a horse, you will repay my kindness! Don't take this matter to heart!" Zong Zheng hurriedly comforted,

Zhang Honggang immediately replied: "No, big grace and small favor can not be equally important, if there is a chance in the future, I will repay Mei Shaoxia's great kindness, speaking of the horse that day, my father heard about it, and was even more harsh, now I know that you are leaving, I chose a good horse, specially brought to see you off, and I hope that Mei Shaoxia will not shirk and refuse my father and son's kindness." With that, he led the horse over and handed the reins to Zongzheng.

Zong Zheng looked at Zhang Honggang with a sincere face, thinking carefully about the lack of a running horse, so he quickly took the reins from Zhang Honggang's hand, glanced at the brown and yellow horse, and said happily,

"Sure enough, it's a good horse, then I'll accept it!" said and took the reins from Zhang Honggang's hand, then jumped on the horse and said to Zhang Honggang,

"It's not too early, Childe's military affairs are heavy, so let's go back early!

Zhang Honggang saw that Zong Zheng happily accepted the horse, and his heart was at ease, so he handed a bag to Zong Zhengdao: "I have prepared some coils for you to use on the road." ”

Zong Zheng didn't shirk it, he quickly took the burden, put it on his shoulders directly, and then replied: "Childe, thank you so much, you can go back, we will have a date later." So saying, he rode his horse and galloped away outside the camp.

Zhang Honggang shouted loudly towards Zongzheng's figure: "Mei Shaoxia, take care all the way." ”

"Take care, too. Zong Zheng immediately replied loudly, and then rode away and disappeared into the vast wilderness.

As soon as Zong Zheng left the barracks, the beggar Tan Liqiu led people to follow him secretly.

Zong Zheng rode a horse all the way, and after an hour, he came to a fork in the road, then stopped his horse, and looked at this fork in the road, Zong Zheng did not know where to go for a while. I thought in my heart: "I'm already wandering around, I don't know where to go, as long as I can lead away those people in the martial arts, where to go and what is the pass, it's better to let the horse choose for me." ”

After a while, Zong Zheng opened his eyes and saw that the horse had chosen the fork on the left, although he didn't know where the fork in front of him led, but he felt that this might be the will of heaven, and the will of heaven could not be violated, so he did not hesitate to go to the left.

Tan Liqiu saw that Zong Zheng was heading in the direction of Yincheng, so he ordered several subordinates to go back and inform the various gates to send to Yincheng to assemble, and he continued to follow with the remaining half of the people. ”

After the last time Xiaolin's eyeliner was killed, Tan Liqiu learned a lesson, so he deliberately asked the people who went back to report the news to be divided into three groups and returned in disguise.

Zong Zheng rode a horse all the way, and after half an hour of walking to Yin Cheng, the horse's foot strength gradually weakened, and Zong Zheng also felt a little hungry, so he dismounted and came to an inn.

Xiao Er greeted him and said,

"Guest officer, please. Saying that, Xiao Er took the reins from Zong Zheng's hand and led the horse to the inn stable, very enthusiastic.

Zong Zhengze walked inside with a sword and a burden on his back. Secretly thought to himself: "When I came out, I didn't dare to enter the inn without silver, and I haven't really tasted the food outside, it's a pity, with so much silver today, I naturally have to have a good meal." ”

Entering the inn, the shopkeeper saw that Zong Zheng was carrying a heavy burden, so he led Zong Zheng to sit down at the big table against the wall with a warm face.

Zong Zheng put the burden on the table, and the shopkeeper immediately made a pot of tea and brought it to Zong Zheng, and poured it enthusiastically.

Zong Zheng also felt a little thirsty during this trip, so he picked up the tea and drank it all.

When he raised his glass of tea, Tan Liqiu also rushed to the inn, led a few people to walk in with their heads down and took advantage of Zongzheng's inattention, picked up a remote position and sat down, and sat right behind Zongzheng.

Xiao Er walked up to Zong Zheng and asked, "Guest officer, what are you doing?"

Zong Zheng has eaten all the meat meat in the Mongolian camp these days, and he can't help but miss the taste of vegetarian dishes a little, so he said to Xiao Er: "Bring your best vegetarian food to serve, remember, don't eat meat." ”

Xiao Er immediately replied: "Okay, does the guest officer want some wine?"

Zong Zheng immediately replied: "I don't want wine." ”

"Okay, officer, you wait. After Xiao Er finished speaking, he walked towards the kitchen.

Tan Liqiu said to his subordinate Yu Ji: "You see, how hypocritical, on the surface he only eats vegetarian food, but in fact he is vicious, this kind of person I hate the most in my life." ”

Yu Ji's mind suddenly turned, and he said to Tan Liqiu: "Elder Tan, we might as well put some sweat medicine on his food and capture this kid alive when the time comes." ”

Tan Liqiu nodded and said, "Well, that's a good idea, you can sneak into the kitchen quietly and put sweat medicine in his dishes later." ”

Yu Ji replied: "Just take a look." With that, he got up and quietly walked to the kitchen.

Xiao Er put all the dishes on one after another, and placed them neatly on the big table in front of Zong Zheng, with more than a dozen plates.

After a while, Yu Ji came out of the kitchen, and Xiao Er also walked towards Zongzheng with the last dish from behind Yu Ji.

Tan Liqiu and the others looked at Yu Ji from afar, and while Yu Ji walked towards Tan Liqiu, he blinked his eyes slightly to indicate that the sweat medicine had been put away.

Tan Liqiu was secretly happy in his heart, and stared at Zong Zheng carefully behind his back.

Zong Zheng looked at the dishes, smelled the fragrance of the vegetables, and immediately took the chopsticks, casually went to one of the plates, and took a bite of the jade greens, Zong Zheng felt that it was extremely delicious, so he let go of his stomach and wanted to taste the dishes on the table one by one.

After only a few bites of food, Zong Zheng suddenly felt a little dizzy, and then fainted on the table.

Tan Liqiu and the others hurriedly stepped forward and put Zong Zheng on the sack and wanted to carry him out of the inn, Xiao Er and the shopkeeper hurriedly stepped forward, and the shopkeeper shouted,

"Guest, he hasn't settled the money yet!"

Tan Liqiu picked up the burden on the table, and after opening it, a pile of snowflakes and silver appeared in front of him, Tan Liqiu took a spindle at random and threw it to the shopkeeper, and then wrapped the burden and hung it on his shoulder.

The shopkeeper took the snowflake silver thrown away, looked at Tan Liqiu, inexplicably thought it was a robbery by bandits, so he stopped making a sound, and watched Tan Liqiu and others carry Zong Zheng away.

The two disciples forced Zong Zheng to lie down on his horse, and Tan Liqiu immediately led a few beggars to help the disciples ride their horses to the outskirts of the city.
