Chapter 90: The Autumn Wind Doesn't Move

On the nineteenth day of the first month, Xu Beiyou went out of the city again to visit Xie Suqing.

This time he was going to do it in Tianxianglou, he didn't plan to use his own people, but wanted to borrow some people from the Jiangnan Dark Guard Mansion through Xie Suqing, and the people from the Dark Guard Mansion would take action.

Xu Beiyou didn't plan to stay alive, he just wanted to kill people.

If it is said that in the deserted land outside the northwest, Xu Beiyou and Zhang Daoshuo meet on a narrow road, then they can only fight to the death to see how their cultivation is, but in the Xiongcheng of Jiangdu, there are countless rules, Xu Beiyou can hide behind the rules, and even without having to go down in person, he can let this opponent who is not self-sufficient be buried here.

That's the taste of power.

The Jiangnan Secret Guard Mansion is the only branch of the six Secret Guard Mansions that has a capital governor and Tongzhi, and has the responsibility of supervising the major families in Jiangnan and the Sword Sect, the White Lotus Sect, and the Wenxiang Sect, so it is the most powerful, ranking first among the mansions, far from being comparable to the Northwest Secret Guard Mansion that ranks lower.

Regarding the matter of transferring manpower, Xie Suqing agreed very happily, and promised to give Xu Beiyou two masters of the Ghost Immortal Realm and ten first-grade realm secret guards, equipped with an equal number of Heavenly Machine Crossbows, God-Destroying Arrows and Xuansha Heavy Armor, and twelve people set up an ambush, as long as they are not masters of the Earth Immortal Realm, everyone else will be hated on the spot.

This is not a big deal, looking at Jiangnan, that is, Xie Suqing can be so lightly replaced, and if he is someone else, even Jiang Bin, the governor of Jiangnan Secret Guard Mansion, does not dare to use public weapons so blatantly.

Xu Beiyou returned to Jiangdu at noon, while Xie Suqing's men would be a little late, arriving in Jiangdu in the evening.

Tomorrow, it will be the Hongmen banquet of Tianxianglou.

As for the owner of Tianxianglou, Xu Beiyou knew who it was, and if he wanted to come to Zhang Zhaonu, he also knew who it was, with that person's temperament, most of them would watch the play gloatingly, and they would never stop it.

There is a short road from the ancestral house of the Xie family to the river, and you have to pass through a valley called Baiqing Valley, Xu Beiyou will pass through here every time he goes to the Xie family, and today is no exception.

Xu Beiyou, who was sitting in the carriage, lifted the curtain and glanced at the early spring scenery outside where the snow had not melted, and he felt a little uneasy in his heart.

Since he opened the Upper Dantian Purple Mansion, there was a bit of the autumn wind that only the masters of the Earth Immortal Realm had before the cicada felt strange, and as the carriage continued to move forward, the haze in Xu Beiyou's heart became thicker and thicker.

Almost as soon as Xu Beiyou wanted to give the order to turn the carriage around and return, a sharp whistling sound sounded in the air.

Xu Beiyou's face changed suddenly, because he recognized the source of this sound, it was the sound that could only be made after the siege ballista broke through the air, and there was definitely more than one.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze, Xu Beiyou's face became more and more pale, but his eyes were extremely hot, and the phantom of an ancient sword slowly appeared under his eyes.

Why was the imperial court able to dominate the world and make countless monks bow down? Not only because of a Heavenly Machine Pavilion and a Secret Guard Mansion, but also because of hundreds of thousands of elite and strong troops that swept the world.

The army takes the cavalry as the most, and the cavalry takes the heavy cavalry as the most, and the heavy cavalry that reaches a certain level can pose a huge threat to the realm of ghosts and immortals, which is a bloody lesson that countless monks have exchanged for their lives, but the heavy cavalry will inevitably be dwarfed in the face of the realm of earth immortals.

There are not many earth immortals who can really block millions of divisions with a sword, but there are many earth immortals who can fly away for a long time.

Without the deterrence of heavy cavalry, it is inevitable that all the earth immortals will not obey the rules.

In order to deal with the unruly earth immortals, the Metropolitan Governor Wei forbade the Metropolitan Governor's Mansion to further improve on the basis of the Dark Guard's Divine Destroying Arrow, and developed this crossbow named Thunder, which means that the Earth Immortal will be punished by thunder when he ascends, and this crossbow is to imitate the Heavenly Dao to kill the Earth Immortal.

A thunder ballista needs to be operated by thirty-six crossbow officers, each crossbow arrow is almost as tall as a human being, and the arrow takes the advantage of the god-destroying arrow, and specializes in breaking all kinds of body protection magic weapons.

An arrow is fired, which is almost equivalent to the sacrificial blow of the peak human immortal realm, which is enough to seriously injure the ordinary earth immortal realm, if supplemented by the heavenly machine pavilion's heavenly machine master to blind his perception with secret methods, and use his own qi as the traction, he can use several thunder ballistas to lay down an ambush array that is enough to kill the earth immortal master.

In an instant, three huge crossbow arrows carried the sound of wind and thunder, and shot into the carriage where Xu Beiyou was located.

Xu Beiyou's carriage is specially made, and there is a forbidden law on the outer wall, I dare not say that it is as hard as King Kong, but it is by no means an ordinary arrow that can be injured, but in the face of these three crossbow arrows, the whole carriage is like paper paste, and it is wiped out in an instant.

Even the ground around the carriage was blown apart, opening a huge crater with a radius of dozens of feet.

Xu Beiyou did not die in this wave of raids, it was precisely because of the miracle of the cicada that the autumn wind did not move that he had already taken precautions, jumped out of the carriage at the last moment, and then ran wildly along a gravel path in the Baiqing Valley, and the whole figure instantly disappeared into the dense forest on both sides.

In the process of escaping, Xu Beiyou's mind changed sharply.

Maybe because it was a matter of confidentiality, or maybe because Xu Beiyou was not in the realm of earth immortals, the person who ambushed this time did not dispatch the heavenly machine warriors of Tianji Pavilion, but simply ambushed with a thunder ballista, so Xu Beiyou had a glimmer of life.

Who would have thought that Xu Beiyou, a freak, would be able to open the Upper Dantian Purple Mansion in advance? If it was someone else, whether it was Crouching Tiger Zhao Tinghu or Qi Xianyun before he was promoted to the Earth Immortal Realm, he couldn't escape the ending of dying on the spot.

So who is the person behind this ambush? Looking at the whole of Jiangnan, the thunder ballista is only available to the Jiangnan garrison, and neither the Sansi Yamen nor the Secret Guard Mansion has the right to call on the Jiangnan army; as for Zhang Zhaonu, his foundation is far away in Jiangbei, and he has not yet affected the Jiangnan army.

But why did Yu Kuang kill him? The two have no grudges and no hatred, and they can even be regarded as half allies, Yu Kuang has no motive to do this. After all, Xiao Bai behind Yu Kuang is not the emperor, or even the crown prince, he has no reason to offend a second assistant of the dynasty, and add many variables to his succession process.

Especially this second assistant is still a lonely person and doesn't have so many scruples, such a person is to some extent more terrible than the real person in charge of the big family.

Above the temple, there is no temperament, only a layman who weighs the pros and cons, since Yu Kuang can calm and endure dormant for decades, he is by no means a person who is willful, so it is impossible for him to kill Xu Beiyou.

Could it be that some of the two right governors of the Jiangnan Army took advantage of the fact that Yu Kuang, the left governor, still had a shallow foundation and acted without authorization?

Xu Beiyou, who was extremely cautious, did not make a conclusion prematurely, whether it was Zhang Zhaonu's collusion with the local head snake, or someone who wanted to take the opportunity to fall into the ground, after this incident, everything would come to the surface.

Xu Beiyou walked through the dense forest, his figure fluttering like a ghost, and behind him was a rapidly spreading shadow, and I don't know how many assassins lurked in this shadow, wanting to put Xu Beiyou to death.

No one would have thought that Xu Beiyou would dodge the first wave of almost death-defying thunder crossbow arrows, so the assassins who were responsible for the aftermath were slow down and failed to form an encirclement of Xu Beiyou at the first time.

Xu Beiyou didn't want to turn back and show the courage of the horseman, after all, the sages had made it very clear that the gentleman did not stand under the dangerous wall, as long as he could return to Jiangdu City alive, then the situation was still under control, after all, he was the head of the snake, no matter how Zhang Zhaonu, the dragon who crossed the river, how he dominated, he had the power to fight.

Of course, the person who ambushed him also knew this very well, if Xu Beiyou was allowed to return to Jiangdu alive, then the previous efforts would be completely in vain, not only to startle the snake, but also to be caught by Xu Beiyou.

One chase and one escape, one life and one death, affecting the entire situation in Jiangnan.

Rushing out of the dense forest, there was a mighty river rushing, and the bridge over the river had been destroyed.

u Kujiang D5 Net ^ Only Positive $ Version 5R, $ Other M Other) are K is "pirated."

Xu Beiyou's body is like falling leaves with the wind, tapping on the river surface, treading water and crossing the river.

After crossing the river, Xu Beiyou looked back, and with his eyesight, he just saw that three hundred zhang away, there was a woman with a blurred face jumping out of the shadows, standing on the treetop of a towering tree, dressed in purple and white cotton armor, with white hair tied into a ponytail, heroic and cool.

She held a half-human-tall bow in her hand, and the bow had a purple-black aura on its body.

She was bending her bow and arrows, and there was a purple-red qi machine visible to the naked eye on the arrow.

Kill one stone with one stone.
