On the fourth day of the first month of March, it is advisable to accept wealth, open the market, avoid traveling, and break ground. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Xiaodao and Tang Tianchen had already changed their outfits before they arrived. Yesterday, they had already discussed, and this trip changed their name and surname, turning into a tea merchant.
Xiaodao and Tang Tian first went all the way up to meet the pavilion master, after all, if they wanted to take flowers, they still needed the pavilion master's warrant.
The two came to Shengyue Building, followed Ran Yue into the study, and saw Yue Manlou reading a few secret reports on the table.
"See the Pavilion Master. "The knife and Tang Tianyi saluted together.
Yue Manlou looked at the two people in front of him, and couldn't help laughing: "You two are here?"
"Meng Sicheng has seen Pavilion Master Yue. Tang Tian bowed down again, put on a weak look and said, pointed to the knife beside him, and said with a posture of lesson: "You unruly guy, don't hurry up and salute when you see the world-famous Yue Pavilion Master!"
"I've seen the Yue Pavilion Lord in Xia Meng. The knife also saluted respectfully again.
"Yesterday, the two of us discussed, pretending to be a tea merchant, one master and one servant traveling, enough to hide people's eyes and ears, and the road can be more peaceful. The knife is the best, and the things are safest in him. However, if we really encounter any risks, the master will definitely be the first to become the target of others, so simply change it, I am the master, he is the servant, if it is an ordinary bandit, I will never guess that this treasure will be on the servant. "Tang Tiandao.
Yue Manlou laughed heartily a few times and said, "That's very good." After finishing speaking, he got up and took out an ordinary wooden long box with a length of one foot five and a width of one foot two from the shelf behind him, and handed it to the knife.
When the knife was opened, the cotton wool inside was at the bottom, wrapped in brocade cloth, and when I opened it, it was really the ice magnolia flower.
The knife closed the box and arched his hand: "The knife will definitely live up to the trust of the pavilion master, and hand over this thing to the Wanhua Palace with his own hands." ”
After Xiaodao and Tang Tian said goodbye to Yue Manlou, they went straight down the mountain. Yesterday, Xiaodao had also ordered people to arrange carriages and horses at the foot of the mountain.
The two of them carried light skills and walked quickly, this winding Longting Mountain Road, under their feet as if it was flat ground, about two hours, the two of them had come to the foot of the mountain.
Several Moon Shadow Hall disciples had been waiting here early, and as soon as they saw Xiao Dao and Tang Tian arriving, they stepped forward to salute.
The two took the dry food and water, and without saying much, the prancing horse and whip were already on the journey.
"Wanhua Palace has been famous in the rivers and lakes more than 100 years ago, it is rumored that the first palace master is a royal princess, in the deep palace but love martial arts, a chance out of the palace to play and get acquainted with a hero, but the two identities are very different, although there is love, but it is difficult to become a family in the end. Then the princess heard that the heroic man had another wife and had children, and she was even more heartbroken, and decided that he was forgetful, and went to look for him with several maids on a rainy night. Since then, the royal family has lost a pretty princess, but there is an additional Wanhua Palace in the rivers and lakes. "Little Knife Road.
"My God, where did you know about such a long time?" Tang Tian asked.
"The secret of the thousand flowers in the vault is recorded. "Little Knife Road.
"Then how did you know that the princess was the Lord of the Ten Thousand Flowers Palace?" Tang Tian asked.
"At that time, the princess's title was Wanhua, and she loved to raise flowers, and the inside and outside of the palace were full of flowers, and the people around her jokingly called her the princess of Wanhua. Knife said.
Such an assumption is also far-fetched. Tang Tian said.
"But it's not important, it's just to tell the world that this Wanhua Palace is not an ordinary place, we are going to send flowers, and the pavilion master has a long-term plan. Knife said.
"I also heard that the Wanhua Palace is located in the Yunlin Valley in Yuezhou, it is rumored that there are hundreds of flowers blooming all the year round, one step at a time, attracting many elegant people in the rivers and lakes are admired, but there are deep clouds and heavy fog, ancient trees are intertwined, if there is no insider to lead the way, once it is difficult to get out again, so although the Wanhua Palace has been famous in the rivers and lakes for a long time, there are few outsiders to visit. How can we enter the valley safely?" said Tang Tian.
"Let's get there, let's improvise. "Little Knife Road.
"Where do we settle down first today?" Tang Tian asked.
"There is a Sanquan Town to the west and south, if I remember correctly, there should have been an outlet there, I asked Deputy Pavilion Master Mo before, the outlets in various parts of the Fengsheng Hall are still operating as usual, if the journey is smooth, we can arrive before sunset." We can settle down there, go to Ding San, the son of the wind there, change a horse and dry food, and continue our journey tomorrow morning. Knife said.
The horse's hooves galloped, and along the way, Xiaodao and Tang Tian stopped talking, and went all the way.
This way, Xiaodao and Tang Tian were on the horse after resting for a while, seeing that the sky was dark, the two of them rode up a hill, and finally saw the appearance of Sanquan Town from a distance.
"I'm tired, I'm going to have a good rest later, you say I'm still like a rich kid like this." Tang Tian said.
"That's right, if someone asks about it on the road, you can say that your family is in the middle of the road, and the situation is not as good as before, so you can only work hard. Knife thought for a moment and said.
The two of them laughed and had just ridden two steps when suddenly a gust of wind approached behind them. Tang Tian and the knife were immediately alert, and hurriedly lay on the horse's back, and a sharp arrow passed through Tang Tian's position just now. Just after an arrow, another flew in. The knife kicks the leg and deflects the arrow.
The sound of horses' hooves behind him was loud, and in an instant, more than a dozen black-clothed and masked men surrounded them, bending their bows and arrows at the two of them.
"Who are you?" Tang Tian asked.
"Don't talk nonsense, hand over the things and spare your lives. One of them said in a deep voice.
Xiaodao and Tang Tian looked at each other, and suddenly jumped at the same time and shot together.
Seeing this, the man in black immediately shouted, "Up!"
But before their sharp arrows could fly out, Tang Tian folded the fan together, and the hidden weapons flew in mid-air, and five people fell to the ground in an instant.
The knife was also a swift step, the dragon's teeth appeared in the palm, a volley flew in the air, and three people were killed.
When the man saw that he was unable to fight, he kept flying arrows in his hand, and at the same time shouted, "Withdraw!"
The men suddenly scattered in all directions, ignoring their wailing companions on the ground.
Xiaodao and Tang Tian stepped forward, and were about to ask them about their identities, when the three of them, who were still panting, suddenly let out a low groan, and then stopped moving.
"The blood was dark, and they were poisoned. Tang Tian checked it and said.
"We've only been gone for the first day when someone sneaks up on us, and they're pointing at what we're doing. I really don't know who is so powerful and got the news so quickly. But at least one thing is certain. Knife said.
"What is it?" Tang Tian said.
"We no longer have to worry about whether the road will go smoothly when we set off, and the things in front of us show that this road is destined to be full of twists and turns. Knife said with a smile.
"You are still joking, they fired arrows just now, I believe that the follow-up people will be there soon. Let's get into town. Tang Tian said.
"It's just that they can ambush us here, and maybe the town isn't a clean place. Knife said.
"That's better than being on this avenue. Let's go. Tang Tian said.
The two of them got on their horses and trotted again, and finally rushed to Sanquan Town just as the sun was about to set. The two of them dismounted at the entrance of the town and slowly walked into this town that did not know the blessings and misfortunes. After riding the horse all day, the knife and Tang Tian were covered with dust and a little sour and numb, but this was just the beginning.
