Heavy snow covers the sky, the north wind howls, and there are no birds in sight.
Chen Xiu stood on the pier, overlooking the distance.
Several crimson flags bloomed on the silver-frosted ground, and a hay shed for raising horses could be vaguely seen in front of the messy attic in the distance.
"Mr. Chen, I have been waiting here for a long time." The slightly respectful words sounded, and the old man who seemed to be a rich man was full of flattery.
At this moment, there are goose-feather-like heavy snowfalls in the sky, which really echoes the saying: "Yellow dogs are white on their bodies, and white dogs are swollen on their bodies."
"Mr. Chen, it's cold here. I've prepared a little wine in the mansion, and I hope you'll show me your respect." The old man rubbed his hands with anticipation on his face.
This man was recommended by Wu Yunzhao, the lieutenant general, and is now appointed by His Majesty as the Grand Administrator of Jiangnan Prefecture and a fourth-rank official!
If you can curry favor, that would be a great blessing.
"I understand the good intention. It's just that I have official duties! You have a good war horse here. I want to go to the army to die immediately. After all, if I delay His Majesty's important event, you and I will be guilty. But I can't bear it." Chen Xiu said slightly indifferently.
Liaodong is mysterious, entangled and complicated.
He has no interest in lingering in the world of fame and fame.
What's more, when the Sui Dynasty was about to fall, the first rebel king who caused tremors in the world rose up in Liaodong during this period.
"Sir, you don't know something. Today, in Liaodong, except for the Liaodong Prefect's Mansion, the rest of the land has not even paid full military pay. Where did the war horses come from? There is a crazy horse, stained with the blood of the great demon, that is difficult to subdue. I wonder if your Excellency would be willing to take a look?" The old man was startled and spoke softly.
This adult seems to be difficult to get along with?
"But which one?" Chen Xiu said calmly and pointed at the messy stable.
What caught his eye was a tall and majestic horse, much larger than an ordinary war horse.
His body was as black as ingots, his hooves were as white as snow, his mane was as smooth as a mane, and he had a pair of blood-colored eyes as bright as a torch, as if he had understood human nature.
What made Chen Xiu curious the most was that between the horse's troughs, there were pig lungs, sheep livers, chicken offal, and beef intestines, rather than ordinary forage and bean feed.
"This war horse was the mount of the former Liaodong guard. During the demon clan rebellion in the snow mountain, it was stained with the blood of countless great demons. It has since become crazy and frenzied, with an evil aura that is hard to touch by evil spirits. Even a small person in the magical power realm Even the generals can't stop it. Therefore, they have been raising it in vain, but no one dares to touch it." The old man seemed to have thought of something, and patted his chest with lingering fear. Chen Xiu approached slowly, with interest in his eyes.
This war horse is not only tall and majestic, but also filled with a strong demonic energy, and has turned into a great demon.
"The horsemen in the army said that the horse shape of this war horse is 'walking on snow and black clouds', and it can travel three thousand miles a day. Legend has it that the overlord's BMW 'Wuzui' in the Middle Ages was like this. If you really have supernatural power, If you surrender this horse, you won't have to look for a war horse anymore." The old man said softly.
Chen Xiu looked around and frowned slightly: "This is the stable where war horses were raised in the past, right? If so, why is it so dilapidated? Where are the Liaodong sergeants guarding here?"
He was also quite puzzled.
On today's battlefield, the Iron Cavalry is still the unshakable ace, and its status in the army is quite extraordinary.
At this moment, the stables of the war horses were not only so dilapidated, but also unattended.
In this Jiangnan Mansion, it is almost impossible to happen.
"Sir, you don't know something. After His Majesty's three expeditions to Goguryeo were defeated in the past, Liaodong's sergeants have lost seventy-eight percent. In the past one or two years, the weather has been freezing and the monsters have disturbed them. Today's Liaodong, apart from the 30,000 troops under the command of the prefect, there are almost no soldiers left." The old man sighed softly, with a hint of helplessness in his words.
Is the Liaodong Iron Cavalry, which used to be so powerful in the world, now a thing of the past?
It's no wonder that many days later, the first anti-king rebel army of the Sui Dynasty would rise here.
Chen Xiu sighed slightly and gently grabbed the reins of the fierce horse.
Suddenly, the fierce horse roared angrily, its whole body erupted with evil energy, its iron hooves fell like a heavy hammer, and the ground cracked!
Just as it was about to roar, a huge force like a mountain and sea grabbed the reins and knocked it to the ground.
The violent air waves spread out instantly, causing the earth to tremble.
Zhu Peng bowed slightly and said with a faint smile: "Now, can you be obedient?"
The strong horse raised its head, looked at Chen Xiu for a few seconds, snorted and gave in, and knelt on the ground in a friendly manner, as if waiting for Chen Xiu to get on the horse.
"Call
Chen Xiu reined in his horse slightly and said with a smile: "Thank you very much, old man. I won't disturb you. May I ask where the residence of the Liaodong Prefect is?"
In the Liaodong Prefect's Mansion, above the school grounds, the atmosphere was quite solemn at the moment.
A middle-aged man with a round face and a square mouth, wearing a golden chainmail, sat in the center with a somewhat appraising look on his face.
Behind him were more than a dozen tall figures, burly and strong, with strong energy and blood, and strong backs and waists.
"Junior Zhu Peng, by His Majesty's order, went from Jiangnan Mansion to Liaodong to escort the Eighty-Eight Dragons and Tigers Holy Emperor Order!" Chen Xiu said softly.
The middle-aged man frowned slightly, with a bit of suspicion in his eyes: "You are only in the realm of supernatural powers, do you really want to escort such a valuable thing by yourself? The dozen or so subordinates I have here are all in the realm of perfect supernatural powers. , and the body is decayed and has been battle-hardened for a long time.”
"If not, send them to go with you so that they can take care of each other. What do you think?"
Chen Xiu chuckled lightly, stood up slowly, and said with a fierce expression: "If you don't want to reduce my burden, then forget it. Escorting the eighty-eight Dragon and Tiger Holy Emperor Orders is already quite difficult. If you still have to take care of me I’m afraid this bunch of drunkards and ricebags are beyond their capabilities!”
The middle-aged man shook his head slightly: "You are too proud. This incident is extremely dangerous."
Chen Xiu, however, had a serious look on his face and said calmly: "Since your Excellency also knows, what we need to face this time are not only the gangsters, but also the evil thieves. The evil spirits from all directions are very dangerous."
"Junior is really worried that they will drag me back."
As he spoke, Chen Xiu slowly raised his hand and his eyes fell deep into the mansion.
"If everyone here can resist Xiu's sword, then we can talk about it all!"
When the words fell, Chen Xiu turned his hand into a sword, and endless purple and gold thunder flowed between his palms.
When the sword struck down, violent power raged out.
The huge mansion trembled, leaving a deep ravine dozens of feet long.
"I can do it when I use my magical powers." The strong man on the side said rather unconvinced.
While the middle-aged man was wondering, there were hurried footsteps.
The young man who looked like a general had a face full of panic, and whispered: "Sir, the hybrid river dragon you raised, which is comparable to the Xiaoyao Heaven Realm, was cut off by a thunderous sword."
What?
The middle-aged man stood up suddenly, with a bit of horror and disbelief in his eyes!
