Su Zhuo smiled dumbly: "Could it be that the emperor is also interested in martial arts competitions among people in the rivers and lakes?"

Fang Baishi said: "The emperor naturally wants to see who is better among the two young people who are the most popular in the rivers and lakes." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info”

He paused, and then said: "Actually, the emperor has already thought that there may be some unexpected emergencies in this competition. Therefore, he asked me to go to Huashan to keep an eye on it to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to make trouble. ”

Su Zhuo's eyes rolled, and he suddenly smiled: "That party saved Su's life on a whim, isn't it going to regret it now?"

Fang Baishi said strangely: "Why is this?"

Su Zhuo said: "If that person shoots me to death with one arrow, there will be no more battle of Huashan, and naturally no one will make trouble!

Fang Baishi's eyes widened, looking at Su Zhuo's expression was simply unreasonable. He said: "Since no one can make trouble, it is natural to prevent someone from assassinating the two of you." This is my duty, how can I watch you be harmed for the sake of saving trouble?"

Su Zhuo smiled and said, "I'm just joking, why should Fang Zhutou be angry? Fang Zhutou is really dutiful, doing his best for the court, and he is dead!"

Fang Baishi snorted, and after a while, he asked, "The Four Seas Alliance has already begun to take measures against you, what are you going to do?"

Su Zhuo smiled, straightened the reins, stepped on the horse's back, and said, "What else can I do?"

Fang Baishi waved his hand and motioned for his subordinates to follow. He rode a horse and walked side by side with Su Zhuo, unwillingly: "Can you really swallow this breath?"

Su Zhuo suddenly glanced at him and asked with a smile, "Is there any good way to catch the head of Fang?"

Fang Baishi was stunned, shook his head and said, "What can I do...... But don't worry, with our relationship, I will definitely protect you from the secret arrows of the Four Seas Alliance!"

Su Zhuo smiled slightly, and said, "There is a way to catch the head and escort all the way, I think that even if those killers are bold, they will not dare to come again!"

Fang Baishi followed, and the two chatted with each other. All the way to the west, as Su Zhuo said, since the two of them were on the same road, they never encountered trouble again. It was as if the assassination had never happened at all.

The group hurried and hurried, and finally spent more than ten days of hard work to rush to the Huashan boundary. On the east side of Huashan, there is a small county town at the foot of Chaoyang Peak, which is built next to the mountain. A mountain spring flows down the mountain and passes through the city.

After walking through the barren mountains and mountains, I finally arrived at a place where there were people. Fang Baishi let out a long breath, and seemed to finally let go.

Su Zhuo said lightly: "Have a safe journey, arrive smoothly! It seems that Fang Zhutou is a little disappointed!"

Fang Baishi was stunned when he heard this, and said, "What do you mean by this?"

Su Zhuo smiled: "Fang Zhutou has such a good skill, and he didn't get a chance to show it along the way, isn't it uncomfortable?"

Fang Baishi chirped: "Nonsense!" Although there was no abnormality on his face, when he saw Su Zhuo's deep eyes, he couldn't help but tremble in his heart, and a trace of apprehension actually appeared.

Su Zhuo laughed, hugged his fists and said: "Fang Zhutou, in two days it will be the 14th of July." I'm going to live in seclusion for the next two days, and I can't be with you!"

Before the martial arts competition, people in the rivers and lakes have to retreat for a period of time in order to adjust their bodies and spirits to the best state. Fang Baishi naturally understood this approach, and didn't say anything, hugging his fists and saying, "Mr. Su take care!"

Su Zhuo saluted again, which was regarded as a thank you for his escort. After the salute was finished, he led the white horse, which was already covered in mud, and slowly walked into the city.

This county seat is located in the east of the peaks of Huashan Mountain, you can see Chaoyang Peak when you look up, and it is called Chaoyang City after this. Chaoyang City is not a traffic point, and there is no city wall, only a memorial arch is erected, and there is a plaque hanging on it, and two big characters of Chaoyang are written.

The road to Chaoyangfeng from here is the closest, so there have been a lot of people in the city in the past two days. Soon a few small inns were full, and even many of the houses were occupied.

Su Zhuo walked on the road and saw that the originally deserted town suddenly became overcrowded, and he couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. Are people now bored and panicked? They actually traveled thousands of miles to watch a non-existent competition. Fortunately, he always hid his whereabouts along the way, which saved him a lot of trouble.

These people on the street originally came to see Su Zhuo's liveliness, but Su Zhuo was standing in front of them at the moment, but no one recognized him. Thinking of this, Su Zhuo felt very funny again.

Seeing that the lively martial arts people came, they naturally brought a large number of peddlers and pawns, people of three religions and nine streams. They set up stalls along the street, hoping to take advantage of this opportunity to earn more money. What's more, gambling stalls were set up on the street and shouted at everyone to bet.

Su Zhuo shook his head slightly, bought a few buns on the street, and nibbled on them as he walked. He had been on the road for a few days, and he took the opportunity to relax. The street is not long, Su Zhuo walked to the center of the street, and suddenly saw a large group of people in front of him, very lively.

He led the horse forward, wanting to see what was going on in front of him. When I got closer, I saw that in the middle of the street, a shirtless man clasped his fists and said to everyone: "On the way down through the treasure land, who knows that the entanglement on the body is exhausted, and I specially play a set of kung fu here." If you are happy to see it, you can enjoy two copper plates, so that I can make up enough money for the journey, and I can go home as soon as possible!"

As he spoke, he threw a set of punches in the clearing. This set of punches is commonplace, and he fights with strength. There were people in the martial arts who were watching, and after seeing it, they just sneered. And most of them are ordinary people, who can't see any way, and they all applaud loudly.

Su Zhuo smiled slightly, and didn't care. At this time, I heard someone in the crowd shouting, "Look! there's still a lot of excitement over there!"

The shouts drew everyone's attention, and everyone couldn't wait to go over and see what was going on. For a while, there was a crowd of people, and everyone squeezed in one direction at the same time. The streets are not wide in the first place, and they are so crowded that they hardly even have a foothold.

Su Zhuo was coerced by the flow of people, so he had to follow forward. Just because he wants to turn back, it's impossible.

The crowd crowded for a while, and several people carrying burdens suddenly squeezed to Su Zhuo's side, faintly guarding Su Zhuo. Su Zhuo was slightly stunned, and before he could understand what was going on, he heard a terrible neighing from the white horse he was holding in his hand.

"Uhhh

Su Zhuo turned around blankly, and saw that the white horse's belly had a few cuts, and bright red blood gushed out. The white horse could not hold it up, and its hooves fell limp, and he collapsed to the ground. A pair of horses looked at Su Zhuo and seemed to cry.

From the eyes of these beasts, Su Zhuo seemed to be able to read fear, sadness, and despair...... His heart trembled, and he looked around blankly, and sure enough, he saw the men who were carrying the burden, each holding a short knife with blood in his hand.

The men stabbed the white horse to death, and put the short knife in their sleeves as if nothing had happened. Su Zhuo stopped, and the people around him seemed to have stopped, and no one squeezed forward, but surrounded Su Zhuo among the 100 people. (To be continued.) )
