When Tie Ning and Ning Xiaokun bowed their heads and discussed how to go to the Falling Soul Cliff to find Wu Zheng, who had been rescued, Ning Xiaoqian also came back from the front yard.

When he entered the door, he said, "Daddy is back." ”

"Daddy, is General Zhongli here to report something to Daddy?"

"Yes. In recent years, the Sword Gate has been a traitor, so that there are often Chen Shangguan in the nearby prefectures and counties, so the imperial court has notified the Wulin General Alliance and asked to crusade against the Sword Gate. At the same time, General Zhongli also brought a letter from the Ministry of War, asking the Shuntian Jiedu Mansion to send troops to recruit and suppress. ”

Seeing that Ning Xiaoqian suddenly mentioned the Sword Gate, Ning Xiaokun knew that there should be a follow-up, so he asked, "What else?"

General Zhongli said that just when he made a detour to inquire about Wu Zheng's whereabouts, he happened to encounter another bloody case committed by the Sword Gate. It was in Xiangshui Village, where Wu Zheng was recuperating from his injuries and was closest to the Falling Soul Cliff, that the Sword Gate was angry with the girl's family because of the forced marriage, not only killing the girl's father, but also cutting off the arms of the girl's four elder brothers. ”

"What about Wu Zheng?"

Wu Zheng also disappeared that night, and at the same time, there was also a girl who was forced to marry by the Sword Gate. ”

"Could it be that Wu Zheng rescued that girl?"

"Everyone in the village is talking about it, but Wu Zheng is seriously injured, even if he saves the girl, I'm afraid it will be ....... ”

Speaking of this, Ning Xiaoqian stopped when she saw the tears that were already rolling in her eyes.

"What then?"

"Now that the Martial Arts Alliance has received a notification from the imperial court, it is bound to mobilize the nearby martial arts sects to send masters to come. ”

"Sister is saying that the master will also come?"

Ning Xiaokun turned around and grabbed Tie Ning, who was sad, and hurriedly persuaded:

"Sister, don't worry, according to what you said, Wu Zheng should be extremely familiar with mountain life. Therefore, since the Sword Gate will be angry with the girl's family, it means that they have not found the whereabouts of the girl and Wu Zheng. ”

Tie Ning had already thought of this, but when he thought that Wu Zheng was still seriously injured, and with a girl who didn't know martial arts like himself, his situation was difficult to imagine. At the same time, there is another different, indescribable taste in my heart.

"Do you want to go, two sisters?"

"Of course I want to go, I haven't seen the senior brothers and sisters of the division for a long time, and when they come, they will naturally participate in the operation of encircling and suppressing the Sword Gate together. ”

"When, is it too late?"

"Sister, don't worry too much, according to General Zhongli, the north of Xiangshui Village is full of vast mountains, and with Wu Zheng's skills of being familiar with mountain life, he will never be found by the Sword Gate. My father also said just now that I should make arrangements when I go back, and the vanguard should be able to leave within five days. The mountain gate of the Sword Gate is in the mountains more than two hundred miles east of Hakuno City, which is not too far. ”

Tie Ning, who has no power to restrain the chicken, has no other way than to choose to wait patiently.

Inadvertently saw Tie Ning's [Lang Tao Sha], Ning Xiaoqian read it carefully, and was more sure of her judgment all along, - the gentle and virtuous lady in front of her, her demeanor was down-to-earth and generous, and there was a bookish air everywhere on her body, and a girl of the same age as herself was definitely not born in an ordinary family.

It's just that every time I mention Tie Ning's life experience, I can't avoid her sister Tie Lianniang, who died tragically at the hands of Taishi Liu Shiqing, which evokes her sadness. Moreover, looking at Tie Ning's meaning, he doesn't seem to want to talk about his life experience. Only once in a while, their family is not from the north, but only moved from the south to Xiaoyi County, Shuntian Prefecture more than ten years ago.

The next days of waiting were a kind of torment for Tie Ning.

Finally, on the third day, the teachers of the Ning sisters came.

However, it was not as Ning Xiaokun talked about all day long, who would come, but there were two people, a man and a woman, and they were not too old.

"Senior Brother Li, Senior Sister Qin, why are you two alone?"

"What, isn't Sister Xiaokun welcoming us?"

"Why, I thought there would be a dozen people. ”

"Hehe, it's not a group fight, why are so many people coming?"

After laughing for a few words, he turned back to introduce Tie Ning.

"Senior Brother Li, Senior Sister Qin, this is the younger sister Tie Ning we just recognized. ”

Tie Ning hurriedly saluted the two, and also relied on Ning Xiaokun and Ning Xiaoqian, calling them senior brothers and sisters.

After introducing each other, they settled down in their accommodation. The senior brother Li Kite, who is in his early twenties, was naturally arranged in the front yard wing. And Qin Ziying, the senior sister who is only two years older than Ning Xiaoqian's sisters, lives in the backyard, in a room next to Tie Ning.

"Senior sister, which sect sent people here?"

"This time, since it was convened by the imperial court, all the thirty-five sects with the Iron Sword Order had disciples to participate. ”

"Aren't the thirty-six sects with the Iron Sword Order?"

"Senior sister doesn't know that the iron sword order of the Taihang faction was accidentally lost two years ago. ”

"The Iron Sword Order will also be lost?!"

Ning Xiaokun and Ning Xiaoqian showed disbelief at the same time.

And Tie Ning finally knew the origin of the Iron Sword Order that Wu Zheng obtained from the hands of the four black-clothed men in the wilderness north of Fengxian Town last time.

"Yes, because the Taihang faction has been concealing the news, it has not come out until recently, and the entire martial arts is in an uproar. ”

"Senior sister, does each sect only send two people?"

"Not necessarily. It's just that Senior Brother Li and I came to participate in the crusade against the Sword Gate in the name of the master, but in fact, the master ordered us to come and watch the two of you. But the master knows that you haven't been very peaceful lately. He also instructed that when the matter of the Sword Gate is over, he will take you back to the Mountain Gate. ”

The sisters also knew that what they did would definitely not be hidden from their master. I couldn't help but stick out my tongue mischievously at the same time.

Later, Ning Xiaokun learned from Tie Ning that their division was the Lingxiao faction located on the edge of the Great River in the Central Plains. Today's head is a chivalrous woman of the martial arts generation, known as Rui Hongyu of the thousand-armed Guanyin. It is also the master of the Ning sisters.

Two more days passed, and sure enough, on the morning of the sixth day, Tie Ning, who couldn't ride a horse, had to ride with Ning Xiaokun, leading the horse he had prepared for himself behind him. Closely following Ning Xiaoqian, Qin Ziying, and Li Kite, the three horses, who had already changed into official uniforms, dressed in armor and dressed up as Zhong Liqun's war horse, followed the vanguard of five hundred people, and marched towards Heifeng Mountain, the old nest of the Sword Gate, two hundred miles east of Boye City.

"Sister Xiaokun, do you want me to try it?"

After traveling more than thirty miles to the east, Tie Ning basically saw the essentials of horseback riding, so he took the reins from Ning Xiaokun's hand. After more than thirty miles, Tie Ning had already ridden to the empty horse that was leading behind.

The journey of more than 200 miles will take two days for well-trained officers and soldiers.

It's just that after dark, Zhong Liqun did not order to set up camp, but ordered to hurry overnight, and be sure to rush to the foot of Black Wind Mountain before dawn the next day.
