After leaving the Taoist temple, Ye Qing went straight to the first floor, his mouth moving slightly.
After a few breaths, Granny Tilan and King Chuanshan appeared in front of Ye Qing and said respectfully: "Young Master!"
"I have something important to do and need to go to Qishan Mountain and cross the mountain. Mother-in-law, you go and prepare some dry food and drinks. I'll wait for you outside the city. Hurry!" Ye Qing directly ordered without being verbose.
"Yes, young master." Seeing Ye Qing's serious expression, King Chuanshan and Granny Tilan did not dare to neglect and turned around to leave.
After the two left, Ye Qing also walked out of the city. He originally planned to ask Chuanshan King and Tilan Granny to set off to Qishan to find Chen Wuxin in a few days to help Chen Wuxin expand his power, but he did not expect that the plan could not keep up with the change.
While the tea was being made, King Chuanshan and Granny Tilan arrived one after another. After they both arrived, Granny Tilan opened her mouth and blew, causing the mist to billow and condense into a white cloud in the sky.
In front of the white clouds, an old man's face gradually appeared, with two long beards.
"yawn……"
The old man yawned, and the white clouds trembled.
This is a flying craft of Granny Tilan, named Baiyungong. It can carry people and fly very fast.
When they returned to Beiyou earlier, the three of them were riding Baiyungong.
"Sir, please!"
After Ye Qing, King Chuanshan and Grandma Tilan jumped onto the white clouds, Duke Baiyun sneezed, floated up, and disappeared into the air in the blink of an eye.
…
Qishan Mountain stretches for hundreds of thousands of miles, spanning the three counties of Anding, Qingwu and Xuanhua. Qingwu County is located on the Yanchu border southwest of Qishan Mountain. It is an important military base, so there are heavy troops stationed there.
The famous five brigades of Chen Dao, Heng Ji, extermination of bandits, suppression of bandits, and killing of thieves in northern Xinjiang were stationed here, with a general named General Zhenwu.
Among the five brigades, Chen Dao and Hengji are mainly responsible for city defense inspections. From the names of the three brigade of exterminating bandits, suppressing bandits, and killing thieves, you can tell that they are related to the matter of suppressing bandits, among which the exterminating bandits are the strongest.
Xue Beikun is the right brigade commander who is one of the deputy brigade commanders on the left and right brigade of the extermination brigade.
When Xue Beikun first came to Qingwu, he was just a captain in the bandit extermination brigade, and he was not from the frontier army. Therefore, everyone thought that he was just a relative of a high-ranking official in the gilded Imperial Capital in northern Xinjiang. .
Unexpectedly, Xue Beikun came to Qingwu for only a few months, and he wiped out several groups of bandits entrenched in Qishan, killing countless thieves. Xue Beikun was low-key and humble, and loved soldiers as his own son, so he was quickly promoted to the right brigade commander of the bandit extermination brigade. , deeply loved by soldiers.
"Commander Right..."
"Commander Right..."
In the military camp, wherever Xue Beikun passed, all the soldiers looked at him with admiration.
Xue Beikun nodded one by one and returned to the military tent. After entering the military tent, Xue Beikun just sat down when his body suddenly stiffened and he shouted angrily: "Who dares to break into the extermination camp and come out?"
However, Xue Beikun was horrified to find that the voice he shouted only echoed in the military tent and did not spread out at all.
"it's me."
Next to the bookshelf on one side, Ye Qing's figure slowly appeared.
"Son..."
Seeing Ye Qing, Xue Beikun was overjoyed and hurriedly saluted: "Sir, when did you come to Qingwu?"
"Just arrived today." Ye Qing put down the book and looked at Xue Beikun a few times. Xue Beikun's level has been greatly improved compared to before, and he is now half a real person. In addition, maybe because he has been in a high position for a long time. Because he holds real power, his aura is stronger, and he has a feeling of not being angry and being powerful.
Of course, although Xue Beikun was at a high level, he was not able to detect him. It was because he deliberately leaked a trace of his energy that Xue Beikun noticed.
"Congratulations, Young Master, for taking one step further and becoming a Grandmaster." At this time, Xue Beikun also noticed the changes in Ye Qing's energy and congratulated him.
"Thank you." Ye Qing smiled faintly: "I came here today because of Chen Wuxin's affairs. Tell me everything you know!"
"Yes, Young Master." Xue Beikun cupped his hands and reported to Ye Qing what he had investigated.
Xue Beikun's account was roughly the same as what he mentioned in the letter before, but it was more specific, and he mentioned the mysterious force several times.
However, Xue Beikun obviously only knew that there was a mysterious force in Qishan that was conquering all forces. As for who the other party was and how far it had progressed, no one knew anything about it.
It is estimated that the Qingwu military did not care much about this. In their eyes, the bandits in Qishan were just a bunch of rabble and could not achieve anything.
"Then do you know the Immortal Cave?" Ye Qing asked again.
"Immortal Cave?" Xue Beikun was stunned, wondering why Ye Qing suddenly asked about the Immortal Cave again.
"Qishan has three bandits, five peaks, nine forts, eighteen gangs, and thirty-six caves. The Immortal Cave is one of the thirty-six caves. It has a small number of people, and its strength is at the bottom among all the forces in Qishan. However, the Xianren Cave acts extremely low-key and never Robbing families and homes, bullying the weak..."
However, although he was puzzled, he did not ask any more questions, but told Ye Qing everything he knew about the Immortal Cave.
After listening, Ye Qing remained silent. Xue Beikun's understanding of Immortal Cave was only superficial, and he didn't know much as Chen Wuxin did.
"Sir, what's the problem?" Seeing Ye Qing's silence, Xue Beikun asked.
"No."
Ye Qing shook his head. It seemed that he couldn't get any useful clues from Xue Beikun. He could only visit the Immortal Cave himself: "Do you have a detailed map of Qishan?"
"Yes, sir, wait a moment."
Xue Beikun took out a military map from the shelf nearby and handed it to Ye Qing.
Ye Qing opened the map and found the topography of Qishan Mountain in detail, as well as the general distribution range of the bandit forces in all directions.
"Very good, lend it to me for a few days." Ye Qing put away the map.
"Young master, do you have any clues about Brother Chen?" Xue Beikun asked, "I can go with you to help you."
"No need, your identity is sensitive now and you shouldn't act rashly. It's enough for me to go alone." Ye Qing waved his hand.
"Then young master, please be more careful." Xue Beikun cupped his hands.
"Yes." Ye Qing nodded, waved his hand, and five things appeared on the table, two artifacts, a bottle of elixir, and two rare treasures.
The trick weapon is one gun and one pile, and the name of the gun is evil. It is an impermanent trick weapon, which has the power to destroy demons and suppress evil. The stake is named Zhenma, and it is shaped like a horse-tethering stake. It is a suppressing and restraining trick weapon.
The remaining elixirs and rare treasures are things that can improve one's realm.
"These things are given to you as a reward for helping me over the years."
"Beikun is scared. It's an honor for Beikun to serve the young master. How dare you ask for a reward?" Xue Beikun said fearfully.
"You are sincere to me, I know."
Ye Qing replied: "That's why you should be rewarded, and these things are of great use in improving your realm. The higher your realm is, the stronger your position will be in the Northern Xinjiang army, and the greater your help will be to me in the future." .”
"Thank you, Master. Beikun will definitely work hard to practice and live up to Master's wishes." Xue Beikun bowed his head and said with tears of gratitude.
"Well, I'm leaving, no need to send it off."
When Xue Beikun raised his head after hearing the sound, Ye Qing had disappeared into the military tent, as if he had never appeared before.
