Three hundred miles southeast of Heishui Town, a huge pass is built against the mountain, and not far from the pass is the largest Heishui River in Youzhou, which flows slowly from west to east. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info this level is Heishui Pass, built three hundred years ago, the Great Zhou Dynasty stationed here elite soldiers, one is to prevent the people in the "ghost domain" from harassing the people of Youzhou; the other is to check the past personnel, strictly prevent fugitives from all over the country from entering the "ghost domain".

As the opening time of the "Ghost Domain" approached, batch after batch of prisoners were escorted to Heishui Pass one after another. These prisoners, including high-ranking officials, bandits, and ordinary people, were all guilty of exile. At this time, he was locked in prison, and when the time came, he was all sent to the "ghost domain" and left to fend for himself. Wanted notices were also plastered near the gate of Heishui Pass, and Zhang Zifan and Wu Yuren were impressively listed, offering a reward of 2,000 taels of gold; looking back, Mrs. Liu and Liu Yue were also among them, offering a reward of 500 taels of gold, and the crime of adultery and killing their father and brother was actually among them; Ji Cheng and Zhao Xinming were not among them for some reason.

Early that morning, a group of men and horses galloped in. The leader was a general, about sixty years old, with a grim expression and a burly figure, exuding a terrifying aura from all over his body. He was followed by more than 30 horsemen, all of whom were strong men in their thirties, and they also maintained a tacit understanding on the horses, and were faintly divided into three teams. The three generals in front of him were powerful, and a faint brilliance flashed on their horses from time to time, and these three people turned out to be all masters of the outside world.

Soon, the group came to the front of the Blackwater Pass. The city gate of Heishui Pass had already been opened, and the two generals in charge of the pass got the news and hurriedly greeted them, followed by more than 30 people, all of whom were good players with more than four levels of internal strength.

Seeing the leading general, the two of them hurriedly bowed and saluted, shouting, "My subordinates have seen General Zhou." ”

General Zhou rode on his horse, looked at the two of them condescendingly, and said in a deep voice: "General Wang, General Li, please get up." ”

"Yes. The two saluted again. This Zhou general is not only a master of the Waigang Triple, but also a clan from the Great Zhou Dynasty, the two of them did not dare to slack off, and immediately turned over and led the way. When they got on the horse, a faint brilliance flashed on the two of them, and these two people turned out to be masters of the outside world!

After entering the Heishui Pass, General Zhou left aside the two generals Wang and Li, and took his people to walk through the Heishui Pass. Along the way, the soldiers were neatly equipped, lined up on both sides, and in good spirits, General Zhou nodded secretly. Heishui Pass is divided into four parts: the east side is the council hall, where several sergeants guard the gate, and the inside is cleaned; the south side is the training ground, where two teams of sergeants are practicing and shouting to kill; the west side is the cell where the exiled prisoners are held, and a group of prisoners are doing coolies; and the north side is the accommodation area, which is empty at this time, and there is no one in sight. Everything in the entire Heishui Pass is in good order, and it can be seen that the two generals, Wang and Li, are managing it very well.

General Zhou was quite satisfied in his heart, and said in a deep voice: "General Wang, General Li, how is everything going in Guanzhong recently?"

The two glanced at each other and hurriedly replied: "General Hui, everything is as usual in Guanzhong." It's just that there are more exiled prisoners, and the cells in Heishui Pass are about to run out. ”

General Zhou nodded, casually asked a few more questions, and the two also answered each other fluently, General Zhou's face eased, and the two of them immediately breathed a sigh of relief. While speaking, the group came to the conference hall, and General Zhou gave an order and walked into the hall with the three generals. The two generals, Wang and Li, understood and hurriedly retreated from the crowd, and then followed.

After General Zhou sat down, he took out a holy decree and said in a deep voice: "General Wang, General Li, the purpose of Zhou's trip must have been known to the two generals for a long time, and this holy decree is also for the two to look at." ”

"Don't dare. Although the two generals Wang and Li said this, they still took the holy decree with both hands, opened it and looked at it, and it read: "The edict said: General Zhou Yuanhai is ordered to handle all matters in Heishui Pass, and the two generals Wang Wen and Li Wu will fully assist, and there must be no mistakes." Covered with the jade seal of the imperial court below, the two generals Wang and Li collected the holy decree, and hurriedly knelt down and said: "The lower official receives the decree." ”

"Two generals, please get up. General Zhou took a few steps forward, helped the two generals up, took out a portrait from his arms, and said, "The two generals, Zhou is here for this person, and I also ask the two generals to look at it." ”

The two hurriedly took the portrait and looked at it carefully, the person in the painting was a young man, about twenty years old, with a face like a crown of jade, handsome appearance, wearing a white silk robe, with a piece of ancient jade hanging from his waist, faintly flashing a hint of green, and he knew at a glance that he was not an ordinary thing. If Zhao Xinming was here, he would be able to recognize at a glance that the person in the painting was that prince!

"Lord Zhou, I don't know who is in the painting?" General Wang asked softly after a moment of silence.

"Hehe, it's normal that the two generals don't know each other. General Zhou smiled faintly and said, "This person's name is Ji Cheng, and he is the fourth son of the King of Xishan." In the first half of this year, the king of Xishan died violently, this person had a bad heart, and he had no father, so he killed a group of brothers and won the throne of the king of Xishan. When our emperor heard the news, he was furious, and he immediately raised troops to exterminate this thief! Unfortunately, this man was seriously injured and fled from the city in the chaos, and his whereabouts have not been known ever since. Because this person's injuries are quite special, and only a few medicinal materials in the 'Ghost Domain' can be cured, the imperial court sent me here to arrest this thief. Two generals, this person is scheming, once discovered, he will be killed!"

"Yes, my subordinates obey. The two generals hurriedly received the order.

General Zhou nodded and said again: "Two generals, this matter is very important, and you must not leak the news." As for the portrait of this person, the general can rub a few copies and let the soldiers in the city write it down. ”

"Yes, my subordinates will do it. Again, the two took orders.

General Zhou was very satisfied, and said with a smile: "The two generals have worked hard and made great achievements, and they must be enlightened and saintly." There is no rush in this matter, these three generals have been with me for many years, and they have also come to get acquainted. ”

After speaking, General Zhou pointed to the three of them in turn, and said: "These three are General Zhao, General Qin, and General Zheng, and all three of them are the commanders of the 'Hushan Guard' of the imperial court, so you might as well get closer and closer." ”

Wang and Li's faces changed suddenly, and they looked up to these three people even more. "Hushan Guard" is a royal soldier, a team of ten people, both offensive and defensive, and the combined strength of ten people can even block the attack of a triple master of Waigang. The most important thing is that these people are the guards of the Son of Heaven, and the people who guard them are either rich or noble, all of them are direct members of the clan, and they are far from being able to climb high. Wang and Li deliberately became friends, and these three people also had intentions in their hearts, and they were full of harmony for a while.

At this moment, a "Hushan Guard" suddenly walked in and whispered a few times in General Zhou's ear.

"Zhou Jin?" General Zhou muttered and said, "Bring him in." ”

"Yes. The man who came took the order and retreated.

Outside the Blackwater Pass, a team of people was waiting anxiously. Five days ago, Master Zheng received the order and finally arrived here with more than a dozen people day and night. If this operation is unsuccessful, Master Zheng sighed slightly, looked up, the sky was covered with black clouds, and the Heishui Pass in front of him was like a dormant giant beast, hideous and terrifying!
