CHAPTER 6 CHAPTER XVII
Twenty-eighth, the sky is bright.
Inside the Mansion of the City Lord of Wucheng.
"Brother Zhao, long time no see. The square-faced man in the golden robe greeted Zhao Danchen, who had just arrived in Wucheng, with a smile.
Behind this square-faced man, there was also the Wucheng City Lord. However, in this level of communication, the city lord of a city is not qualified to intervene at all.
"Brother Zhao, the Black Nightmare Horse will let his subordinates follow me. Someone went to help take the Nightmare Horse.
Zhao Danchen smiled and said, "Brother Wang, I don't know how many people and horses from my Qinghu Island have come here?" He walked side by side with the gold-clothed man.
The man in gold said, "One hundred and fifty of you people from Qinghu Island have just arrived. At this moment, they were all resting in the backyard, waiting for Brother Zhao to go and give orders. Zhao Danchen frowned when he heard this, this time Qinghu Island summoned the order to send people from the six nearest county towns around Wucheng.
Fifty men were to be sent to each station.
Now it seems that there are only three county towns, and less than half of them are there.
"Well, it's still early. Zhao Danchen looked up at the sky, "The last time we appeared, that Teng Qingshan was very cunning in the dark environment. "Zhao Danchen can remember clearly, in the Tianhong Palace, when he and the 'Beast King' Wuhou were in front of the golden dragon turtle, Teng Qingshan hid around the corner, and the two of them just didn't show up.
This ability to hide in the dark. Zhao Danchen was also a little jealous.
So
Do it. It has to be during the day!
Immediately. Zhao Danchen and the golden man rushed to the backyard together.
Because of the six major counties. The distance from this Wucheng is not equal. The order of arrival is not exactly the same.
"Drive!"
More than 20 horses with bright yellow bodies and four hooves galloped on the official road for blood-red war horses, as if more than 20 sharp arrows were advancing through the air. This is the 'Fire Riding Horse' from Rongzhou in the Western Regions, which is considered to be the best horse in Rongzhou in the Western Regions. It can travel nearly 2,000 miles a day.
This daily distance generally refers to the distance that can be traveled in five or six hours in a day.
After all, horses also have to rest. Each of these horses was worth more than 10,000 taels of silver, and more than 20 of them appeared at once. There are very few forces in the world that can be so extravagant.
"My lord, there is Wu Cheng in front. ”
"Hmm. Riding at the front was a handsome young man dressed in black, his face was like frost, it was Yan Danchen who was transferred to Yuzhou to be the protector of the Dharma and manage the garrison of a county town. Yan Danchen got the news last night and led fifty people to Wucheng, Yuzhou as quickly as possible.
Therefore, Yan Danchen immediately wielded the maximum energy possessed by Qinghu Island and got twenty-six fire-stepping horses.
He rode a horse alone, and the deputy protector stationed at the station also rode a horse. The others were two people riding a fire-treading horse.
"The island is in such a hurry, what is the matter?" Yan Danchen was puzzled.
But he did not diminish, and led his men and horses into the city soon. Today, the guards of the underground city gate were obviously explained, and they did not block it at all, and at the same time guided the direction of the city lord's mansion.
"Stop!" Yan Danchen ordered.
"Rhythm~" More than 20 fire-stepping horses excitedly raised their front hooves and neighed in unison. Fifty of them jumped off their horses.
"Guys, follow me to the backyard and hand over the horses to us. The guards of the City Lord's Mansion had already opened the gate, and someone immediately went to lead the horse, and Yan Danchen led the people to enter the City Lord's Mansion under the leadership of the guards.
Yan Danchen looked at the guards who led the way: "How many people are here now?"
"You Qinghu Island, there are two hundred people. You've arrived, and you're still the last of you. The guard laughed, "The first batch arrived before dawn." ”
"Oh. Yan Danchen was secretly shocked, "On the island, it seems that many people stationed on the island have been ordered to rush over. ”
Moments, arrive in the backyard.
The backyard was full of people, but it was still relatively quiet, only some whispered chatter, and no one dared to speak loudly. Because in the pavilion not far away, Zhao Danchen was sitting opposite the golden man.
"Yuzhou Wunan County stationed Protector Yan Danchen, meet the elders!" Yan Danchen immediately walked over and saluted respectfully.
"Oh, Danchen, have you been released?" Zhao Danchen glanced at the young man in front of him in surprise.
For Yan Danchen, a young man, Zhao Danchen still remembers it very clearly. The first is that Yan Danchen's performance in the past year is amazing, and the second is because Yan Danchen's name is too similar to his name. Except for the difference in the surname, the first name is at least phonetically the same. One is 'Danchen' and the other is 'Danchen'.
Zhao Danchen also remembered this young man.
"Yes, Elder. Yan Danchen said respectfully.
"Well, you take your people to rest first, and wait for the last group to arrive. Zhao Danchen commanded, and immediately Yan Danchen retreated.
Yan Danchen found a stool to sit on, because there were too many people in the backyard, and only some high-status people had stools to sit on. Most of them are standing on the sidelines.
"Senior brother, why are you in such a hurry to gather the people stationed in the six county cities this time? and fifty of them are gathered in each city!"
"It's definitely a big deal. It is estimated that it is related to Yuhuangmen, and it may also be related to Teng Qingshan's matter. Who knows...... This kind of secret will definitely not be told to us until the end of the action. ”
Yan Danchen frowned slightly when he heard the voice next to him: "It is estimated that it is really related to 'Teng Qingshan' Brother Teng!"
For Teng Qingshan, Yan Danchen is grateful.
After all, Teng
He died, but for Qinghu Island, Yan Danchen was also very loyal, and his master was also very good to him. Therefore, it is impossible for him to betray Qinghu Island and do something that will cause heavy losses to Qinghu Island.
"There is kindness in return, if this matter really involves Teng Qingshan, I have to ......" Yan Danchen was also a little anxious in his heart.
At this moment, dense footsteps sounded, and a large group of people came in from the gate of the courtyard.
"Brother Zhao, all of you people from Qinghu Island are here!" The golden-clothed man in the pavilion in the backyard stood up and said with a smile, Zhao Danchen also got up and looked at the three hundred people in the backyard, and the last group of artificial protectors also saluted respectfully: "The Dharma protectors stationed in Huayang County, Yuzhou, should be correct and meet the elders." ”
"Hmm. ”
Zhao Danchen walked to the center with a pile of papers in his left hand, got up and looked around, "Everyone gathered around, and the six Dharma protectors came to my side." ”
Suddenly, Yan Danchen, Ying Xingzheng, Bai Bo and other six Dharma protectors all stood on Zhao Danchen's side, and everyone else was around.
"This time, I, Qinghu Island, came to Wucheng for the purpose of capturing Teng Qingshan alive!" Zhao Danchen looked around at the people around him, he didn't know the news before, but everyone on Qinghu Island who had just guessed a little was a little surprised to find Teng Qingshan? Yan Danchen's heart trembled.
Big trouble!
"Teng Qingshan's life is a great shame for my Qinghu Island! Tens of thousands of soldiers of my Qinghu Island Yinjiao Army died tragically because of this despicable person. Even the young island master was killed by him!" Zhao Danchen looked around at everyone, "From now on, everyone will hear me clearly. ”
As soon as Zhao Danchen let go, there was a 'peng' sound, and a pile of papers fell to the ground. Zhao Danchen picked up the most superficial piece of paper and said: "This map is a detailed map of the entire Wucheng, which also points out the location of the inn where Teng Qingshan is located. ”
"Three hundred of you, all you have to do is to lay down men and horses in every street and alley within three miles of the inn. No matter where Teng Qingshan flees, our people can appear immediately. I'm going to let him have nowhere to escape!" Zhao Danchen took out six maps from the stack of papers, and handed them to the six Dharma protectors around him.
"You six, I've mapped all the street areas on this map. ”
Zhao Danchen was in the pavilion before, and he had already planned everything. And these maps are naturally provided by Yuhuangmen.
"The White Wave Protector, your centaurs, is in charge of the first area south of the inn. Fifty people are optimistic about three alleys and one street. ”
"Yes. The White Wave Protector immediately bowed down and responded.
"Juyanfeng Protector, your men and horses, are in charge of the second area east of the inn, and the places drawn are all shown to me tightly. ”
"Yes. ”
"Yan Danchen Protector, your men and horses are in charge of the third area in the north. ”
......
Soon the six Dharma protectors were all tasked with the task, and it was obvious that with the inn as the center, there were 300 people within a radius of three miles. Zhao Danchen continued: "Teng Qingshan is now disguised as a businessman 'Qin Wei', this is a portrait of 'Qin Wei', and each Dharma protector takes three of them. Everyone under your command must remember what 'Qin Wei' looks like. ”
The six Dharma Protectors immediately received three portraits each, and looking at the portraits, they also marveled in their hearts that this Teng Qingshan's disguise was too amazing.
"Arrest Teng Qingshan, you don't need to do it, I'll solve it myself. Zhao Danchen said indifferently, "Once Teng Qingshan escapes, you must show his location." Of course, it's unlikely that he'll be able to escape to you. ”
"Remember, no one of you is allowed to enter the inn or go near it. ”
Zhao Danchen looked around and said indifferently: "With Teng Qingshan's ability, as long as you see a few of you, it is estimated that it is easy to see that something is wrong." "There are subtle differences between the locals of Wucheng and the people of distant Yangzhou, whether it is temperament, speech, etc. One side of the water and soil to support the other side.
With Teng Qingshan's eyesight, if there is really a stranger disguised as a shopkeeper, or surveillance, etc., he can indeed appear.
"If someone disobeys, others can simply put them to death. Zhao Danchen said indifferently, "Now, out!"
"Yes. ”
The six Dharma Protectors bowed down to answer the order, even if Yan Danchen was anxious, but because of Elder Zhao's arrangement, he couldn't think of a way to help Teng Qingshan for a while.
......
Zhao Danchen and the man in gold left the City Lord's Mansion side by side and walked towards the inn. The two of them seemed unhappy, but they walked in the crowd suddenly, and after a while, they were far away. They did not follow the main street completely, but walked through the alleys, crossed the river, etc., and made their way to the inn as quickly as possible.
"Brother Zhao, I think you're making a big fuss. This time, it was difficult for Teng Qingshan to fly. The man in gold laughed.
Zhao Danchen said indifferently: "Be careful, this time, if Teng Qingshan is allowed to run away again, I won't have the face to go back to see the island owner." ”
"Don't worry, on the opposite side of the inn, there are three innate Jindan elders of my Yuhuang Gate. The man in gold said with a smile, "In the entire Wucheng, my Yuhuangmen arranged more than 1,000 people overnight, all over Wucheng. It's that Teng Qingshan who is now you. He wants to escape! With his degree, under the three Jindan elders of my Yuhuang Gate, how can he escape from Wucheng?"
"If you don't think about Qinghu Island, let your Qinghu Island kill Teng Qingshan. I, Yuhuangmen, have already started. The man in gold said confidently.
