After a short walk, they came to the place where the Heavenly Sword Gate was ambushed, and several corpses that had been cut down were lying in the middle of the road.

Wu Zhijun, the deputy master of the dignified Heavenly Sword Gate, was also cut off his arms, and he lay on the side of the road without a blind eye, which made people sigh.

Their luggage and horses had been taken away by the robbers, and the bodies were supposed to have been deliberately left behind by the robbers, which could be a warning or a message.

Only fools would think that they just didn't want to waste time disposing of the corpses, as for the specific effect of letting Wu Zhijun and a few people storm the corpse wilderness, Qi Yufei didn't know, but he had a hunch that this interception might be related to himself.

Zhao Ping, who saw so many corpses for the first time, squatted on the side of the road and vomited out disgustingly, but in order not to lose face in front of these martial arts people, especially in front of which little white face.

Zhao Ping still held back the churning gastric juice, and reluctantly stood up with an iron face, but he still didn't dare to look directly at these miserable corpses.

Seeing Zhao Ping's ugly appearance, Qi Yufei and Qin Yu didn't say anything, and ordinary people were inevitably a little uncomfortable when they saw such a bloody scene for the first time, which confirmed Zhao Ping's identity as an ordinary person, but alleviated the two of them doubts about Zhao Ping.

Qin Yu was searching for something on Wu Zhijun's corpse, and Zhao Ping also endured the discomfort in his heart, and groped for the upper body of a Heavenly Sword Sect disciple at his feet. It's a pity that there is nothing to be found except for some scattered silver, Qin Yu shook his head at Qi Yufei and took the silver into his arms casually, Qi Yufei didn't care about beating the horse and leaving.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Ping also silently left the silver he found from the corpse, this money is not worth mentioning to Qi Yufei, but it is timely rain for Zhao Ping, who is poor and white.

In order to overcome psychological obstacles and better adapt to the world, Zhao Ping constantly made psychological hints to himself, telling himself that these were not real people, at least not people from his own world.

Just think that he is playing an RPG game that is too real, and treat these corpses as wild monsters, and Qi Yufei, Qin Yu and others are the NPCs who issued the mission.

Although it is not to blame for the self-fighting, but the money and equipment that have fallen out, no one wants it, and they can't choose it themselves? Wasting it is a shameful act.

Once you accept this setting, everything in this world becomes cute, and even the corpses on the ground are not so disgusting.

Thinking like this, Zhao Ping ran to Wu Zhijun's corpse again, took off the snakeskin jade buckle belt on the waist of the deputy door master, wiped it casually and tied it to his waist, and found a stainless steel dagger from Wu Zhijun's right boot.

Seeing Zhao Ping's actions, Qin Yu sneered in his heart but didn't say much, that dagger was an ordinary dagger, but that belt was not something anyone could wear.

Otherwise, I took it myself when I was checking Wu Zhijun's body just now, and I could wait until Zhao Ping came to pick up the leak. Even the robbers did not take the belt, which was worth a lot of money at first glance, and deliberately left it at the scene.

But Qin Yu saw that Qi Yufei didn't scold Zhao Ping, so he didn't want to remind Zhao Ping about anything. For a spy like Qin Yu who has been trained in the sect for many years, he has no friends and no so-called enemies, and he only has a task in mind.

At the last moment, he wanted to cut off Zhao Ping's head with a knife, but at this time, he could talk and laugh with him, and the next second, he would not hesitate to kill the other party.

This has nothing to do with personal moral cultivation, it is just a simple work need, and it is the foundation for Qin Yu to survive in the task.

When Qi Yufei saw Zhao Ping take off the snakeskin jade buckle belt on Wu Zhijun's waist, he didn't say anything, that is, he acquiesced to Zhao Ping's behavior. But the corners of his mouth still showed a hint of a playful smile, but unfortunately neither Qin Yu nor Zhao Ping noticed it.

The episodes on the road did not delay much time, and the three of them hurried to almost lay Zhao Ping down, and finally arrived at their destination Tianxia Pass before it was dark.

At this time, the gate of Tianxia Pass has been closed, unless there is an emergency military situation, otherwise it will not be opened until dawn tomorrow.

Young Master Qi's status in the martial arts is not low, and he is a figure who is unattainable in the northwest martial arts, but compared with the strength of the imperial court, it is nothing but a small matter.

Even though Feng Yue, the chief soldier of Tianxia Pass, was a disciple of the Famous Sword Villa, he had to call the young owner when he saw Qi Yufei, but he would not bend the law for personal gain in front of everyone.

Therefore, after the city gate was closed, the three of them had to find another place to rest, but fortunately, there were a large number of taverns and inns along the city wall and on both sides of the official road for merchants to rest.

Originally, these market towns formed outside the city walls were very common in the inland castles, but after all, this is a border area, and it is rare to build such a lively market town outside the city, and such a peaceful scene can still occur because of the great victory ten years ago.

Ten years ago, the king of Donghu led 300,000 steppe cavalry to seize the pass, and the king of Donghu, Altai, was ambitious to invade the Central Plains and occupy the world of flowers in the Great Wei.

It's a pity that these steppe people besieged the city for three months, and they couldn't shake the Tianxia Pass for a single point, until the army of the imperial court came to help, and the king of Donghu had no choice but to retreat.

During the retreat, he was continuously pursued by the light cavalry of the imperial court, losing a lot of cattle and horses, and even Altai himself was shot in the left shoulder, and almost died in the chaos.

This battle not only determined the status of the Great Wei Celestial Empire, but also highlighted the importance of Tianxia Pass, which made the imperial court spend a huge amount of money to rebuild Tianxia Pass.

It also upgraded the official road leading from the capital of Great Wei to Tianxia Pass to a straight road, so as to facilitate the mobilization of the army and supplies.

It's a pity that after the victory at Tianxia Pass, the Donghu people directly called the Great Wei vassals, and paid tribute every year. Other steppe tribes didn't dare to make a mistake, so this straight road was more cheaper for the merchants who came and went.

The long-term peace also made Tianxia Pass, a military checkpoint, an important trade transit point for the Great Wei to the Western Regions and the grasslands, and its prosperity was no less than that of the inland cities.

After a long period of war, the people slackened, and within a few years along the official road on the side of the Great Wei State, a large market town was formed, and even without the protection of the city wall, the population was increasing.

This is also the reason why Tiandaomen and Mingjian Villa care so much about Tianxia Pass, and controlling the trade of Tianxia Pass means having an inexhaustible gold mine.

After all, if the poor and rich martial arts can't even eat enough, what martial arts do they practice, and only those young heroes who have nothing to do like to roam the rivers and lakes.

Especially for first-class sects like the Famous Sword Villa and the Qingshan Sect, the daily maintenance cost was not weaker than that of the regular army of the imperial court.

This also makes these famous factions hide a greedy heart that is more mercenary than a businessman under the chivalrous appearance.

On the surface, this area is within the strength of the Tiandaomen, but in fact, the customs clearance document through the Tianxia Pass, as well as the route of smuggling the grassland, have been divided up by the major forces.

However, because of the location of the Heavenly Sword Gate and their relationship with the previous commander, they controlled much more caravans than others, even compared to the Famous Sword Villa and the Qingshan Sect.

And with the departure of the previous chief soldier, now there are people who want the Heavenly Sword Sect to spit out the piece they have eaten, and the Famous Sword Villa is one of those people, who makes the new chief soldier a disciple of the Famous Sword Villa.

Qi Yufei's mission here was also obvious, the same purpose as Deputy Sect Master Wu, to test Feng Yue's attitude and gain more convenience for the caravan controlled by the sect.

Although Feng Yue is a person from the Famous Sword Villa, he is now an official and obeys the orders of the imperial court after all, even if Feng Yue, the chief soldier, has spent a lot of effort to help him get it.

But when Feng Yue became the chief soldier of Tianxia Pass, he controlled an army of 100,000 troops, and his status was already on an equal footing with Qi Haonan, the owner of the Famous Sword Villa, the former kindness and righteousness were easy to turn into hatred.

Everyone understands the truth of Shengmien's fight against Mi Hatred, in order to get rid of the control of the Famous Sword Villa, no one knows what Feng Yue will do.

Of course, the Famous Sword Villa is not a fool, how could the general army of Tianxia Pass, which was raised at such a great cost, easily let it get out of control.
