Tang Zhao's heart moved and he said: "The conference starts on February 12th and usually ends on February 17th. If you perform well, you can stay until February 24th."
Deputy Ambassador Mai pondered: "February 24th, it's one month from today. Jianzhou is in Kungang, thousands of miles away from here. If you go there one month in advance, the return trip will take more than half a month, right? Then I’m afraid it’s too late…”
Tang Zhao said: "We walked slowly when we went there to gain experience. If we want to go faster, don't talk about teleportation, just use my senior brother..."
At this moment, the sound of hoofbeats was heard, and a donkey came running towards the end of the road. Its hooves fell down tightly, like a windmill, all of which were gone. In the blink of an eye, they passed by Tang Zhao and the two of them, splashing up a large amount of sand and dust, and went along another road.
In the wind, I heard him laughing: "Junior brother, have you ever heard of the tortoise and the hare?"
Tang Zhao: "..."
Of course he had heard it, and he had told it to his senior brother - but that was not the problem.
There are others here!
Vice Ambassador Mai smoothed his bangs blown by the wind and said, "Your senior brother?"
Tang Zhao said "uh" and had to admit it, so he nodded and said: "Well, he actually usually..."
Deputy Mai suddenly laughed and said, "You still have a childlike innocence. Isn't that normal at your age? And it seems like you have a pretty good relationship with each other."
Judging by the way they are fooling around, you know that they must be able to play well. Otherwise, the more unfamiliar the relationship, the more polite they will be, and they can act like brothers and sisters in front of outsiders. Tang Zhao was mature in front of Deputy Mai because they were not real siblings after all.
Tang Zhao scratched his head and said: "He is a little childish in temperament, but he is very strong, especially fast. With his magic weapon, he can travel thousands of miles in a day."
In fact, sword control is also very fast, but sword control consumes a lot of money, especially the weapon. It is almost impossible to travel long distances. Jiang Shenyi's wings are still reliable.
Deputy Ambassador Mai was very doubtful about how he could travel a thousand miles with just that donkey, but he still said: "If you can return to Yunzhou before the end of February, come to Zhaocheng and have a look."
Tang Zhao was secretly surprised and said: "For the Devil's Cave? Is it because there are not enough manpower? Is there a place where I can be used?"
In fact, there is no shortage of manpower in the District Prosecution Department. The reason why Xingji recruited him before was more for the Haechi Sword itself. In addition, in the past few years, Gao Yuanhou's foundation in Yunzhou has become more and more solid. The training camp he established himself is continuously producing talents, and the inspection department is becoming more and more prosperous. There is no need to invite helpers below the swordsman level.
Deputy Ambassador Mai said: "There are enough manpower. Zhaocheng is the seat of Riyang County and one of the largest cities in Yunzhou. There are more people in charge of the district inspection department than there were in Yuxia County. There is no shortage of combat power. It's just that this time we go back to the Devil's Cave. Special, it should be empty type."
Tang Zhao was surprised and said: "Empty type? That's rare!"
The empty magic cave is a magic cave where the space entrance directly appears and connects to another space. Strictly speaking, it is not necessarily called a demon cave, because there may not necessarily be demons in the space. Of course, there may be a large number of demons who open blind boxes in a serious way.
This kind of devil cave is very rare. There have been only a handful of them since the founding of the Jin Dynasty. At least, Yunzhou has never heard of it. And it is very difficult to deal with. The connection with the outside world is formed in an instant, which cannot be interrupted and cannot be eradicated. The best way is...
"Do you have a way to seal the exit of the Demon Cave?"
Tang Zhao pondered and said: "I don't know how to do it now. You can ask Master." He had limited time and had not dabbled in this kind of unused knowledge. Fortunately, he took the owl with him and asked him to send a message and ask Xue Xianyun, let's see if there is anything we can do.
"If Master doesn't know, I will go to Jianzhou and ask. After all, this is the domain of Talisman Sword Masters, and the Mid-Spring Festival is a grand gathering of Talisman Sword Masters all over the world. I think someone knows about it."
Deputy Mai nodded and said: "Then I'm counting on you. Our inspector can only fight and kill. What we can do is kill the demons inside and keep the people away from the demon cave. But this time we came near the city , the impact is not small. If the entrance to the Demon Cave is left open, the lives of millions of people in the city may be affected. In the end, the original site may even be abandoned. It would be best if it can be solved once and for all." She thought for a while, and then said, "Just ask, it's best not to tell you the specific information about the Demon Cave."
Tang Zhao nodded in agreement, he also understood this. The Demon Cave is a disaster, but it is also a resource. It is said that there are people with bad intentions from other states who deliberately leave the Demon Cave alone just to collect the resources inside. The Hollow Demonic Cave is particularly precious, and since it is so rare, there may not be anyone with hidden evil intentions among the Talisman Sword Masters.
After making an agreement with Deputy Mai to return to Zhaocheng at the end of February, the two chatted for a while before Tang Zhao left.
Riding on the donkey, Tang Zhao once again held up the clouds and galloped away, feeling ups and downs.
To pacify the devil's cave and restore peace to the world has been his long-cherished wish since he was a child. It’s just that I haven’t had the opportunity in several years. Now that he encountered the Demon Cave again, and was able to use what he had learned, he couldn't help but become more motivated. Compared with this, the Jianzhou Conference that had been prepared for three years was still far behind. For a moment, he wished he could jump directly to the end of the conference and return to this magical cave.
I have never forgotten the tragedy I saw in the world back then.
After riding for a while, Tang Zhao figured it was time to catch up to Jiang Shenyi. He was just thinking about what harsh words he should say if he overtook him this time. However, after chasing for a long time, he never saw Jiang Shenyi's back.
After walking for a while, the power of one yuan was exhausted. Tang Zhao reined in the donkey and thought: Could it be that he missed it?
Since the power of one yuan is agreed upon, there is an upper limit to the distance that can be traveled. Tang Zhao believed that Fu Shi's use of Yuanli was more efficient, and he would never be in a situation where he had stopped while Jiang Shenyi was still ahead.
This is troublesome.
The two of them came out together. Once they strayed off the road, it was not easy to find them again.
You have to wait on the road, otherwise you will make more mistakes and have to go to Jianzhou to meet again.
In fact, it's not impossible to go to Jianzhou separately. The two of them are not low in martial arts, so their safety will definitely be no problem, and they won't be afraid of things going wrong on the road, but it's just too unreliable. The master and senior sister still thought he was reliable, so they gave him the task of persuading the senior brother. Could it be that they had just gone very far and they were going to fall apart together?
Looking back carefully, since they left home, the two of them have been flying together, and they have indeed not done anything reliable.
This is not possible - Tang Zhao thought, blowing the whistle, and the slender whistle spread far away.
An owl flew over and landed on Tang Zhao's shoulder. Tang Zhao ordered: "Go find the eighth senior brother. Once you find him, let him stay where he is. Come back and tell me, and I will join him."
Watching the owl go away, Tang Zhao thought to himself: It takes time to use the owl to send messages back and forth, and it is not convenient after all. It seems that it needs to be used as an instant messaging tool. What is the name of the thing that Mr. Chen mentioned that only requires a series of numbers to talk to each other?
What symbols are needed to make that thing?
When the owl flew away, Tang Zhao was thinking about the composition of the "mobile phone". He had been thinking about it for half a day and even thought about the arrangement of the buttons before he saw the owl fly back.
The owl did not land, but hovered overhead, turning three times.
There is an enemy!
The owls tamed by Xue Yeyu are very spiritual. Although they cannot speak, they can convey messages through flying postures and hoots. As soon as Tang Zhao saw it flying, he knew Jiang Shenyi was fighting.
Careless!
Unexpectedly, Senior Brother Jiang encountered an enemy.
Could it be a bandit?
The public security in Yunzhou is pretty good. If you're not in the deep old forest, you won't encounter robbers easily. Even the notorious gangsters don't dare to rob the carriages and horses on the official road. But this place is close to the border of Lingzhou, which is a notoriously chaotic place. There may be bandits who have crossed the border and harass passers-by.
Isn’t the infamous Baixiong Mountain in Lingzhou? Eldest brother has offended them, how could he know it was not revenge?
Moreover, Senior Brother Jiang did not bring a heavy package and was well dressed. If a blind thief thought he was a fat sheep...
No, since it is a battle, there will naturally be back and forth. How can ordinary thieves compete with Senior Brother Jiang? He must be a kind of thief, let alone a loose person.
Tang Zhao thought and followed the owl.
The owl flew for a while, then suddenly changed direction and descended from the official road.
Tang Zhao was startled, "Well, why do you want to go down to the official road?" The two of them felt free to compete because there was only one official road that was not easily separated. Why did Jiang Shenyi go to the official road privately?
There are only desolate dense forests on both sides of the official road, not even a village. What are you doing down there?
It can't be a relief, right?
Didn't he take the initiative to go down, but was he forced to do so?
Someone stopped him on the official road. What method was used to force him to leave the official road and enter the dense forest?
Thinking all the way, Tang Zhao followed the owl into the woods.
As soon as they entered the woods, they saw a donkey tied under a tree. It was Jiang Shenyi's donkey.
Tang Zhao breathed a sigh of relief. The donkey was tied very well, which at least proved that Jiang Shenyi's situation was not very urgent. Otherwise, he could just leave the donkey outside and let it go. If he encountered a murderer, he might even kill the donkey with a knife.
After thinking for a while, he tied his donkey beside him and entered the dense forest alone. Of course, I had to take out the Lihuo Sword. When I saw something was wrong, I activated the imitation weapon to at least be able to withstand one swordsman. If he joins forces with Jiang Shenyi again, even if he encounters a wild swordsman, he will be able to escape unscathed.
The further inside, the slower Tang Zhao slowed down, and finally, a human voice came to his ears.
From a distance, I heard a familiar voice: "You guys watch out, let's use the Talisman Sword Master's method to decide the outcome!"
WTF?
Tang Zhao was confused for a moment. Jiang Shenyi said that sentence just now, and it was obvious that he did not say it to himself.
Are you talking to your opponent? Is this a fight or not?
And what is the method of the Talisman Sword Master? How about a showdown? Who can write better talismans and make better magic tools?
So, the opponent is a Talisman Sword Master?
Two people flashed through Tang Zhao's mind. Since he knew Jiang Shenyi was fine, he simply didn't hide the sound of his footsteps. As he got closer, he heard two voices from the opposite side yelling at the same time: "Who?"
Jiang Shenyi immediately replied: "My junior brother is here. He is also a Talisman Sword Master. It just so happens that we are two against two, and no one will take advantage."
Tang Zhao was stunned for a moment, then after walking a few steps, his eyes suddenly opened up. It turned out that there was an open space in the forest, and three people were standing in a triangle, looking at each other. As soon as he came in, the four of them took one side each, with all four corners complete.
As soon as he stood firm, he heard the sound of wind. A woman opposite threw something to him. Tang Zhao instinctively ducked sideways. Jiang Shenyi said: "Catch it!"
