Zhaoyue Country.
In the territory of Yunzhou, Zhaoyue Kingdom can be regarded as one of the few powerful and rich empires, with a territory of more than 100,000 li, which is not comparable to a small country like Wuguo. Even if it is a small person in a remote county town of Wuguo, there are many people who know the name of Zhaoyue Kingdom.
An inconspicuous camp on the border of Zhaoyue Country, with stone walls that are not high or thick, are stationed with hundreds of elite cavalry and one guard. For an empire like Zhaoyue Kingdom, which has millions of troops, the defenders here account for a fraction of the country's military strength, which is simply not mentionable.
The emperor of the Zhaoyue Kingdom never worried that this camp would be attacked by enemy countries, and there was no need to station troops here. Because after this small camp, it is a mysterious place that is not explicitly indicated on the maps of all secular realms - the boundary of Tianwu Immortal Yuan City.
The only function of this small camp is probably only to show that this is the border of Zhaoyue Kingdom. If this place was really attacked unexpectedly, it was most likely a certain immortal cultivator who looked at Zhaoyue Kingdom unpleasantly and vented his anger, and the emperor of Zhaoyue Kingdom could only consider himself unlucky.
Zheng Zhicheng rushed to this camp, visited the guards, reported the name of his disciple of the martial arts national teacher, and made friends with the guards as brothers and brothers. A day later, Zheng Zhicheng explained his intentions.
"Lord Wang, this is a bill of exchange of three thousand taels of gold, a bill of exchange from the Zhaoyue Chamber of Commerce of Zhaoyue Country. The little brother came in a hurry, and he couldn't bring more generous gifts, which is not a respect. ”
Zheng Zhicheng presented a few large bills of exchange, put them on the table, pushed them over, and said.
The general's eyes were half-squinted, and his heart moved slightly.
If three thousand taels of gold is only a small meaning, then what is a big one? Even in a rich empire like Zhaoyue Kingdom, it is not easy to earn three thousand taels of gold. There is no oil and water to fish in this place, and it is very poor. If you want to get three thousand taels of gold, I'm afraid it will take several years.
"Brother Zheng, what do you mean!"
The military general glanced at Zheng Zhicheng and said slowly. Neither shirked nor accepted. It's not too late to figure out what you want to do before you consider whether to accept it.
"The junior brother wants to ask Lord Wang to do a favor to deal with a few warriors and prevent them from passing through here, I wonder if the adults are willing to make a move?"
Zheng Zhicheng said with a smile.
"I guess your injuries have been left over the last few months. You are a disciple of the Martial State National Master, a Zhenguo-level swordsman, and if you can seriously injure and break your arm, the strength of the opponent is definitely no less than the strength of you, a ninth-level master in the body refining period. With this bit of gold, you want to ask me to deal with a few powerful martial artists?"
The military general glanced at Zheng Zhicheng's severed arm and sneered, "Disciple of the dignified immortal master, if you take out this bit of goods, you want to support the general to eradicate the hostile people for you, you also think too highly of yourself!" The general's words were unceremoniously.
"I just missed it out on the spur of the moment. ”
Zheng Zhicheng's face turned red, he felt embarrassed and embarrassed under the ridicule of the general, and gritted his teeth and took out a piece of black ebony several inches long wrapped in oil paper from his arms, "This is rootless wood, a nine-grade medicinal material, and a quenching best medicinal material." Back then, my master spent a lot of money to find it for me. I only used a small part, and I gave the rest to Lord Wang!"
"Rootless wood, this is a rare good thing, only the immortal cultivation world can produce it, even gold can't be bought in the market of Zhaoyue Kingdom, it can be seen that Brother Zheng is still very sincere. Haha, I just made a little joke with my brother, and I will order a hundred elite cavalry to guard outside the pass, and let them kill those four people outside the pass! As long as they appear, they will definitely die. ”
The military general was finally slightly surprised, accepted the piece of ebony, and patted Zheng Zhicheng's shoulder. He is already at the ninth level of the body refining stage, so he can't use it, but he can use it for the younger disciples of the family. This piece of medicinal herb is even more rare than the three thousand taels of gold just now.
"One hundred cavalry, I'm afraid this is too little, right? One of those four people is at the eighth level of the body refining period, and the rest are at the seventh level of the body refining stage, and a hundred cavalry may not be able to stop them. ”
Zheng Zhicheng's face suddenly became ugly. paid such a big price, and actually sent such a small number of troops.
"Do you think that the cavalry of the Zhaoyue Kingdom is as weak as an ordinary small country? Every one of the cavalrymen is a fourth- or fifth-level martial artist in the refining period, and they are well-trained, and this hundred cavalry can even beat a small country to cry dad and call mother!"
The military general laughed a few times, suddenly stopped, and said in a deep voice, "But Ben will say ugly things in front, and your little wealth is worth buying a few lives." If more than ten of my 100 horsemen die, they will retreat. Don't expect this to be a big hitch on General Ben!"
Zheng Zhicheng's face twitched slightly, and he forcibly held back his anger
"In front of it is a small nameless camp on the border of Zhaoyue Country, after passing the camp, as long as you travel for a few more days, you can reach Tianwu Immortal Yuan City!"
Princess Wu rode a horse and galloped to the front, excitedly.
Ye Chen, Yan Han, and Wei Xuanyu followed closely behind, and they couldn't help but show anticipation. Soon they will be in the legendary Xianyuan City, which is the place they have dreamed of rushing to the place for the past few months.
"Phew!"
Princess Wu suddenly stopped.
"What's going on?"
She was stunned.
In front of the camp, there stood quietly a team of nearly 100 lancers, wearing stainless steel chain mail, high-grade war horses under their hips, holding spears, charging in formation, silent, filled with a faint murderous aura. The cavalry had not yet moved, and it had already exuded a terrifying deterrent.
Ye Chen, Yan Han, and Wei Xuanyu stopped their horses and looked at the cavalry group hundreds of zhang away.
"They're going to kill someone! There's no one else here here but us, and they're clearly coming at us!"
"For no reason, why are the cavalry of the Zhaoyue Kingdom coming at us? Unless someone is directing them behind their backs! Damn, maybe Zheng Zhicheng is making trouble. He previously instructed the horse thieves of Heishuiyuan to sneak attack us, and after being seriously injured, he disappeared for a few months, but he didn't expect to run here first and bribe the cavalry of Zhaoyue Kingdom to deal with us!"
"This is the border of Zhaoyue Country, and there is a camp. After leading to this place, it is the boundary of Heavenly Mist Immortal Yuan City, and there is no longer any obstruction, you must rush over!"
"I'll rush to the front, let's meet them for a while!"
Ye Chen held the reins in his hand and said in a deep voice.
The three of them all nodded, among all of them, Ye Chen's strength at the ninth layer of the refining period was the strongest, and against the hordes of elite cavalry, I am afraid that only Ye Chen could make a move.
"Huh!"
Ye Chen pulled out the treasure knife, clamped the horse's belly, and rushed over first. When dealing with hordes of cavalry, you can't wait for the opponent to run. Otherwise, as soon as the hordes of cavalry run, they will be unstoppable and very difficult to deal with.
Princess Wu and the three followed behind, ready to support.
Thundered!
The hundred cavalry did not expect to be the first to move, "Charge!", the leading cavalry immediately launched, holding spears, and began to gradually accelerate and run. The acceleration of a group of cavalry is different from the acceleration of a cavalry, and the speed of activation is a little slower. Before the speed was activated, the power of the cavalry charge weakened a little.
"Forty zhang, twenty zhang, ten zhang and five zhang!"
Ye Chen stared at the cavalry phalanx that was getting closer and closer in front of him, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
"Drink!"
Ye Chen jumped up from the horse.
Poof!
More than ten cavalry rushed more than once, and more than a dozen spears stabbed into the body of the sweaty horse, stabbing it with thousands of holes, and Yin Hong's horse blood sprayed wildly.
Ye Chen fell to the ground and fell into the middle of the cavalry.
"Whirlwind Slash!"
Ye Chen drank vigorously, pouring all his strength into the treasure knife, and the treasure knife in his hand slashed a flawless arc around his body, bursting out nine dazzling sword qi, and swept the surrounding obstacles in a square circle with great domineering.
Poof!
A circle of cavalry around Ye Chen, the autumn wind swept by the wind, fell to the surroundings, flesh and blood flew, and the corpses of the cavalry that flew out knocked the cavalry in the rear into the air.
Rumble!
The dense charging formation of hundreds of cavalry seemed to have been smashed into a punch and completely dented. The charging formation was suddenly frustrated, and it was interrupted, "Nine layers of the body refining period, a large-scale attack sword technique!"
The cavalry was shocked.
Ye Chen's whirlwind slashing qi was released, and he fell into an extremely brief period of exhaustion.
At this time, the cold horse quickly crossed him, and another semi-circular arc of sword swept towards the frustrated cavalry group.
Poof!
Four or five heads flew into the sky.
The recess of the cavalry formation was again thinned by a layer.
Ye Chen had already put away his sword, jumped on an ownerless war horse, and rushed towards the cavalry again.
In one face-to-face effort, more than 100 elite cavalry have been lost.
"Bastard! A Zhenguo-level swordsman at the ninth level of the body refining period, and an eighth layer of the body refining stage! Don't even think about killing them unless you send out thousands of elite soldiers. Brother Zheng, these are the few opponents you said are easy to deal with?"
On the arrow tower of the camp, General Wang's face turned pale, and he ordered the horn of retreat to be sounded.
"Ye Chen has reached the ninth layer of the body refining stage, how is this possible! The last time I saw him, he was only at the eighth level of the body refining stage!"
Zheng Zhicheng's face turned pale and he clenched his fists.
"Woo--!"
"Retreat!"
The cavalry of the Zhaoyue Kingdom had already collapsed and lost their morale, and when they heard the order, they turned their horses and fled towards the small camp.
Princess Wu and her entourage rode four horses, rushed through the border camp of Zhaoyue Country in one go, entered the boundary of Tianwu Immortal Yuan City, and disappeared.
"After this pass, it is the boundary of Tianwu Immortal Yuan City, and the army of Zhaoyue Kingdom is not allowed to enter. In order to kill several of your enemies, I have killed thirteen elite cavalrymen, and I am afraid that no less than ten people have been wounded, and it may cost me thousands of taels of gold to suppress this loss. Brother Zheng, please, it seems that your enemy still needs you to deal with it yourself!"
General Wang said coldly and got off the arrow tower.
Zheng Zhicheng's face was gloomy and distorted, he kicked off the arrow tower and rode away from the small camp of Zhaoyue Kingdom.
This interception failed, and the revenge of the broken arm could not be avenged for the time being, but there was an even more troublesome thing that made him feel cold all over.
"Once Wu Lingxiang enters Tianwu Xianyuan City, he will soon be able to arrive at the Jinding Immortal Gate, and when he sees the Xianmen Wu Clan, I am afraid that he will have to face the anger of the Xianmen Wu Clan, I must pass the book to Master Feige as soon as possible, so that he can find a way to deal with it." I will go to Tianwu Immortal Yuan City first to wait for news, and then what to do, I can only let Master have an idea. ”
Zheng Zhicheng felt a suffocating pressure.
