Gao Deng was cut off from his thoughts by the young man in snow clothes beside him. He looked sideways and saw that he was staring at him with a look of panic on his face. He turned around and replied: "Young master, I already know the whereabouts of Yang Huchen. He is here." In Mo County, as for the young man in green shirt and the one-armed man, I am trying my best to trace them. Now in Yanbei, no one dares to stop me without Wanjun..."
The young man in snow clothes didn't seem to care about Gao Deng's distracted behavior beside him, and said with a smile: "General Gao, are you blaming me for sending people to Mo County to arrest Yang Huchen without consulting you?"
When Gao Deng heard this, the light in his eyes disappeared in a flash, and he showed a flattering look and said: "Don't dare, don't dare."
Just when he was about to continue speaking, he heard a shocking sound outside the tent.
Then came the chaotic footsteps and shouts in the military camp, as well as the sounds of clashing weapons, all intertwined together. Gordon rolled his eyes, and fear immediately appeared on his plump face, and he turned to look at Master Xueyi.
The young man in snow clothes glanced at Gao Deng, who looked frightened, with disdain in his eyes. He was still holding a pot in one hand and a wine cup in the other, drinking by himself without any fear. There was someone outside the tent who had already jumped into the tent and stood with his hands behind his back. Next to Young Master Yu Xueyi, he exuded a powerful aura, as if he didn't take it seriously even if there were thousands of troops outside the tent.
Seeing this person, Gordon's fearful eyes reappeared in horror. After retreating repeatedly, he stepped on the air and fell to the ground. Perhaps he was too fat. After falling, his waist seemed to flash, and he hurriedly He held his waist and moaned "ouch, ouch".
The man next to the young man in snow clothes heard the movement and didn't even bother to turn his head. He just bowed slightly towards the young man in snow clothes and said respectfully: "Don't worry, sir, it's not the heaven and earth that are moving... There are wolf smoke and beacon fire in the direction of Mo County."
Hearing the four words "wolf smoke and beacon fire", Gao Deng's waist on the ground no longer hurt, and he immediately said in shock: "Could it be the Jin people who broke through? It's impossible. Although Wan Jun is not here and there is no leader in the army, we still want to break through Yanbei , completely impossible, let alone Jin people..."
As he said this, his eyes turned to the young master who was thinking about himself. He felt that he had lost his words and quickly shut up.
Hearing this, the young master snorted coldly, put down the wine cup in his hand, looked sideways and said, "Is Elder Wei back?"
"I just wanted to report it to the young master." The man spoke very calmly.
Mr. Xueyi knew very well that the more calmly the person next to him spoke, the more serious the matter would become. After thinking for a moment, he seemed to have remembered something, and said in a deep voice: "The sound just now..."
The man beside him gently twirled his long beard and his eyes flickered: "It's Wei Xie."
Under the shocking noise, the unmoved Mr. Xueyi showed a little surprise in his eyes, and asked: "Who has such a method... Could it be that Wei Xie has..."
Speaking of this, Mr. Xueyi seemed to be wary of Gao Deng who fell to the ground next to him, and stopped mid-sentence.
Although Gordon was an idiot general, he had a strong ability to observe people's actions. With just one glance from the snow-clothed young man, he knew that he did not want to hear his conversation with Elder Xu. He also heard the man tell the young man in snow-clothed that the shocking noise just now did not matter. Immediately relieved of the danger, his fat body climbed up with difficulty, bowed to the young man and that person and spoke.
"It's noisy outside, disturbing the conversation between the young master and the elders. I'm going to calm him down."
Seeing this, Mr. Xueyi smiled and said, "That's very good. General Gao, please go now."
Until Gao Deng left, Mr. Xueyi's smile disappeared and he said to the person beside him: "Elder Xu, you mean, that noise just now... Wei Xie is dead?"
Standing aside was Xu Mo, the sword-guarding elder of Zhuque Pavilion who came to help Wang Heng under Wang Yan's instructions. Hearing the slight panic in the young master's tone, he gently twirled his beard and said in relief: "Wei Xie's behavior is too extreme. In addition, if you are impetuous and impetuous, you will not be able to achieve success. If you encounter a master, it will be a matter of time before you kill him with a knife."
Wang Heng heard Elder Xu's slightly disdainful tone and thought about his sword. He calmed down and said, "So, Wei Xie has met a master?"
When Elder Xu heard this, he was no longer disdainful, but rather excited: "The master among masters."
Wang Heng sighed: "I didn't expect there to be such a person in Mo County. As for the capture of Yang Huchen..."
Elder Xu's eyes narrowed and he said: "Don't worry, young master, I will handle this matter. It's just right. I also want to meet the person who killed Wei Xie for a while."
Wang Heng was relieved when Xu Mo took action, and continued to speak: "Only Yang Huchen has some clues about the few matters my father asked me to do, but there is still no clue about the remaining two..."
Elder Xu then stepped forward and said, "I came here just now, and I was just about to report to the Young Master. The whereabouts of the one-armed man...are known."
"What? Where is he?" Wang Heng couldn't hide his excitement when he heard He Ji's whereabouts and stood up immediately.
"It's...in the territory of Mo County." Elder Xu showed hesitation when he replied.
Wang Heng looked at Elder Xu who seemed to be worried when he replied, and asked: "Elder, if you have any concerns, you might as well say it directly."
Elder Xu pretended to be hesitant, and when he saw the young master asking a question, he replied smoothly: "To be fair to the young master, in addition to helping the young master succeed, Xu is here to help the young master achieve his mission, and the sect master has also given an important task."
Wang Heng smiled and said: "Father was worried that I wouldn't be able to accomplish anything, so he secretly sent you to help me. But since my sect's sword-guarding elder from Zhuque Pavilion came to the rescue, how could I only do these small errands? Tell me, what else did my father tell me?" .”
Elder Xu bowed in a rare bow and replied: "Young master, I can't hide anything. Apart from me, there is another person. The matter that the sect master told me is related to this person."
"Who?" Wang Heng knew his father's painstaking efforts, but he still couldn't help but ask.
Elder Xu knew that the Golden Sword Sect would be passed on to Wang Heng sooner or later. Instead of waiting until then, it would be better to express his goodwill to the young master earlier, lest the young master misunderstand that he was here to grab credit, so he replied: "Easy to depose."
"It's him... Yi deposed this person, he has a lot of thoughts. Even my father doesn't know what he is thinking. My father sent him here... So, Elder Xu's other mission is for him?"
Wang Heng opened his mouth and thought to himself, with the addition of Wei Xie and Fei Wei today, the Golden Sword Sect has lost two sword-guarding elders one after another... Now the most mysterious sword-guarding elder of Zhuque Pavilion, Yi De, has also taken orders. He came, but this man had a weird temper and his whereabouts were erratic. He didn't even take him seriously.
Elder Xu saw Wang Heng's worried look in his eyes and took a step forward: "Young Master Mingjian, the sect master asked me to come because he wanted to get rid of him."
Wang Heng knew his father's intention instantly, and was very satisfied with Elder Xu's overtures. Xu Mo is the sword-guarding elder of Zhuque Pavilion. There is a mixed crowd in the Golden Sword Sect. With this sword-guarding elder of Zhuque Pavilion by his side, in the future, Taking over the Golden Knife Sect naturally gave him a boost... The haze that had broken Wei Xie suddenly dissipated.
"So, my father asked the elder to come here. Regardless of whether the deposed person is successful or not, he will never be able to return to my Golden Sword Sect?" Wang Heng glanced at Elder Xu and asked.
"Not bad." Elder Xu said firmly.
Seeing that the young master seemed to have breathed a sigh of relief, Elder Xu continued: "Young Master, just don't worry. The most important thing right now is to rush to Mo County and bring Yang Huchen back. As for the one-armed man, it won't be too late to find Yang Huchen after he is caught. ,"
Wang Heng nodded and said: "In that case, please trouble Elder Xu to go away."
Elder Xu clasped his fists and spoke, seeming to be a little worried: "Don't worry, Young Master, I will leave immediately... But if I leave, Young Master will have no one to protect him."
Wang Heng thought of Gao Deng's idiot appearance and couldn't help but smile: "Elder Xu, don't worry, this Gao Deng is under my control. Don't forget, I also carefully selected fifty people from the sect. Among the guards, Although they are all soldiers and soldiers, one person in my sect can fight ten, which is not a problem."
Elder Xu smiled when he heard this and said: "Young Master is wise and brave, and is not inferior to the sect master, then Xu will leave first."
After saying this, he moved and disappeared into the big tent.
Seeing Elder Xu leaving, Wang Heng paced in the tent, secretly thinking that since He Ji's whereabouts had been discovered, Gao Deng would have to find a way to get him out of Yanbei.
"What's going on? Maybe it's winter and the beacon is just spontaneously burning. Please leave me alone." Gordon's shouts were heard in the tent.
"General Gao, do we in Qiyun have military discipline? As the war breaks out, we must..." The upright general, who seemed not to be afraid of Gao ascending to power, spoke bluntly and remonstrated.
"It turns out to be Brother Xu. I know it. You go and send the order to assemble the army, and I, the general... go and make preparations."
When Gao Deng saw this general, he was not angered by his offending words. Instead, he comforted him with kind words. He looked back at the tent and walked outside the tent. Thinking of that man's indifferent eyes, he was more disappointed than the young man in snow. I was frightened, and when I was hesitating whether to go into the account to report, the voice of a young man in snow came from the account.
"General Gao, come in."
Fortunately, Gordon had already issued a military order, and there was no need for soldiers to guard the tent today. If other soldiers saw it, he, a dignified patrol general, would have to ask for permission to even enter the tent of his chief general, and he would be embarrassed. Went to Yanbei City.
He quickly adjusted his armor, looked back at the beacon fire, and calmed down the worry in his eyes. He put his head into the tent, and lost the domineering attitude of shouting at the soldiers before, and put on a smile again: "Master, this... The flames of war are starting, and if I don't go to investigate, I'm afraid... if I get traced, my head will be in danger."
Wang Heng said with a smile: "General Gao is really forgetful. Wan Jun is no longer in Yanbei. Who has the right to take your head at this time?"
Gordon suddenly understood, and quickly said with a smile: "Yes, yes, look at my memory, I almost forgot, then I will let everyone go back to camp..."
After saying that, he was about to leave with a shy stomach. When he turned around, a pair of small eyes kept looking for something in the big tent. Seeing that the man seemed to have left, he felt a little calmer.
"Wait a minute." When Wang Heng called Gao Deng, he didn't notice the glimmer of calculation in Gao Deng's eyes.
Although Wang Heng was not in the army, he had been with his father since he was a child. Wang Yan was also considered a strong soldier in the army when he was young. Wang Heng naturally heard many things in the military camp from his father.
Even if there is no garrison guarding the beacon tower, it will never accidentally burn due to the winter weather. It seems that the beacon tower incident is related to the death of Mojun and even Wei Xie. Once the beacon fire is ignited, the counties in Yanbei will be on alert immediately. Not to mention sending troops here, after seeing the tragic situation in Mo County, Yanbeicheng will also conduct a strict investigation. Even if He Ji is found by then, it will be even more difficult to send him out of prison.
Having made up his mind, Wang Hengchong continued to speak to Gao Deng: "Although Wan Jun is not in Yanbei, if this matter is spread, it will definitely damage General Gao's official reputation. If those beacon tower garrison soldiers talk nonsense outside, it is General Gao." You ordered them to leave the beacon tower, then..."
It seemed that he was frightened by Wang Heng's words, and his smile suddenly disappeared. Gao Deng hurriedly bowed to Wang Heng and said: "Sir, save me, this... what should I do?"
Seeing that Gao Deng was frightened by his threatening words, his goal was accomplished, and he said with confidence, "I have a way, but I don't know if General Gao is willing to listen."
Hearing this, Gao Deng made a "pop" sound, knelt on the ground, crawled to Wang Heng's feet, and cried repeatedly: "General... the younger ones all obey the master, please give me your orders."
There was pride in Wang Heng's eyes. The dignified General Qi Yun was just like a slave. He prostrated at his feet and said: "General Gao sent people to Yanbei City and the counties in advance to make it clear that this matter was due to the carelessness of the guards and the mistake. The beacon is burning, General Gao has led his troops to investigate, so the counties should not panic, and there is no need to send troops to come and start a war."
When Gordon heard this, his small eyes that were squeezed by the flesh and couldn't see clearly suddenly lit up: "Yes, why didn't I think of stabilizing them first, then the big things will be reduced to small things, and then the small things will be reduced to small things. Those few garrison soldiers were sent out of the pass, and then disappeared..."
Wang Heng ignored this idiot, with a fierce look in his eyes, and continued: "Remember, as long as people are still alive, they will always be found... Only dead people will not speak."
Hearing this, Gao Deng obviously didn't expect Wang Heng to be so ruthless. He looked at Wang Heng intently for a moment, his eyes moved slightly, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Yes, just as the young master said, I will order people to kill those garrison men right now." Silence him."
Wang Heng sneered in his heart, Qi Yun used this straw bag as a general, and Yanbei would return to Jin sooner or later. In this case, why not lift him up higher, lean over to lift Gao Deng up, wipe the cold sweat from his face, and take him with him. He smiled cruelly and said, "General Gao and I were talking about more than just the beacon tower garrison soldiers."
Gordon pondered for a moment, his pupils shrank suddenly, and he was trembling when he spoke: "Young Master... do you want... this..."
Seeing that he understood what he was thinking, Wang Heng laughed and lowered his voice.
"The beacon tower garrison neglected its duties. Whether they were bandits or Northern Jin Rangers, don't you blame me for killing so many people in Mojun without your knowledge?... This time it was just right. General Gao led the patrol The army arrived and found that the bandits had slaughtered all the people. The general was so brave that he immediately wiped out the bandits and solved the bandit troubles for Yanbei City. In this way, who else could compete with General Gao for the position of commander-in-chief of Qiyunbei Territory? To fight?”
Some people died, but not completely...
