Heyang City, Chamber of Commerce.
When Yu Youwei summoned the book boy next to He Zongzheng in the study, Qing'er was kneeling on the agarwood desk to study ink. Nashu was nearly thirty when he was a child. In his early years, he followed He Zongtang holding books and swords. He followed He Zongtang to the west and entered the Jixia Academy of Qi State, where he also learned a lot of skills.
"Girl, Zhao Dun led the army to attack Weicheng, and the allied forces of the Weicheng aristocratic families rose up to resist. Now the two armies are fighting, and the war is tense." The book boy said to the girl who was kneeling behind the desk practicing calligraphy, "But Zhao Dun is full of tricks. He was in the Northern Territory back then. The Great Wall has already mastered the art of defending the city when dealing with the Wei Kingdom, and the Allied Forces of the Aristocratic Family may not be able to stop it for long, and Weicheng will be breached."
"It doesn't matter." Yu Youwei said, "After tonight, the Duke's army will not attack Weicheng even half a point within three days."
The book boy was overjoyed when he heard this, and then worried: "But this is not a long-term solution after all. Now that Hulao Pass is blocked, it is difficult to get news. May I ask the girl if she knows when the Handan reinforcements will go south?"
"Don't count on the Handan army." Yu Youwei said, put down his brush, hugged the copper bird heater, and said after hearing the words: "You guys hold on for a month. After one month, our people will wipe out the southern region."
"One month?" The book boy was shocked, "This..."
"Seventy years ago during the national war in the north, I heard that a senior of the He family in Weicheng named He Chentang defended the city for a year against a hundred thousand soldiers of Qi State without breaking through." Yu Youwei said, "I want to come and learn from Mr. He. In Jixia Academy, I learned Confucian policy skills, so defending the city for a month shouldn't be a problem."
"That's it, girl, please!" The book boy said nothing more and went out.
After the book boy left, Uncle Long knocked on the door and entered the study. Uncle Long was still wearing a raincoat and holding an ancient sword. His appearance could not be said to be weird or strange.
"Uncle Long, I'd like to ask you to take a trip tonight." Yu Youwei said, and the swordsman in coir raincoat read the lips and nodded. Yu Youwei knocked on the ink-carved pen holder on the agarwood desk, and a small, white monkey head came out of it.
Yu Youwei stretched out a finger, touched the monkey's forehead, and said to the swordsman in coir raincoat: "In front of Weicheng, release the soldier beast Zhu Yan to intimidate the soldiers of Zhao Dun's army and shake the morale of the army."
"Okay." Uncle Long said.
Yu Youwei took out an amethyst black iron from the fox fur and fed it to the strange beast Zhu Yan who lived in the pen holder. The little guy happily held it with both hands and started to chew it.
The soldier beast Zhu Yan who appeared in front of the Hulao Pass at the turn of autumn and winter turned out to be a pet spiritual beast raised by Yu Youwei.
The scene in front of me, if the legend goes out, not only Heyang City, but the entire northern border will explode.
"But girl, just now you told He Zongzheng's boy that you don't need to count on reinforcements from Handan. What do you mean?" The maid Qing'er asked strangely, "There is clearly a letter from Handan saying that Sima Wang Lang has led his army south."
"Haha." Yu You smiled softly, "What if Wang Lang goes south? Now that Hulao is in the hands of Mu Suifeng, will he let Wang Lang knock on the door of Hulao?"
Qing'er seemed to understand somewhat.
"So, nothing unexpected happens." Yu You breathed out slightly, watching the white mist roll in, and said, "The news that Wang Lang was assassinated and died will come from Handan in the next two days."
"Ah?" Qing'er was surprised, "Wang Lang's cultivation level is also at the Supreme level, and he is in the military. Can Mu Suifeng be killed so easily?"
"Of course it won't be easy." Yu Youwei glanced at Qing'er, "So the person who took action was not Mu Suifeng. It was Xie Xuan."
The Sword Emperor of Kyushu, Xie Xuan.
So what if you come to disrupt the situation? The world of Great Yan is destined to be overturned.
This is destiny and no one can stop it.
…
When Bai Ze woke up, he felt that there was a tongue constantly licking his face, which was very itchy. He slowly opened his eyes and felt unbearable pain all over his body. Five ribs were broken just to feel it.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp!" Jiuse Linglu shouted happily when Bai Ze finally woke up.
"Brother Deer, thank you very much." When Bai Ze saw the Nine-Colored Deer, he knew that it was the deer that saved him. Bai Ze didn't know how long he had been unconscious, he just felt empty and hungry.
He struggled to sit up, and then he realized that he was in a dark and narrow cave, with a deep pool not far away. The rocks in the cave were dripping water, making strange sounds when it fell into the deep pool.
Bai Ze only remembered the previous battle with Xuan Snake. He was sucked into the bottom of the valley and Xuan Snake chased after him. Then the world started spinning, and he seemed to be swept away by the undercurrent at the bottom of the valley, and then lost consciousness.
"So, is this the outlet of the undercurrent at the bottom of the hot spring lake?" Bai Zexin said. As soon as he started to move, he found that his hands were tightly holding the two spiritual swords Wufeng and Huangshan. He let go, and the joints turned white, and there was no feeling below the wrists.
"Chirp." Jiuse Lu licked the back of Bai Ze's hand, where it rubbed against the stone wall when it passed through the underground undercurrent, and the skin was scratched off.
"It's okay." Bai Ze said to Linglu, forcing a smile, "After I fell into coma, you rescued me from the water, right? Now that I wake up, the broken bones in my body are much better, so I must be grateful. You used jade to help me heal my wounds."
"Chirp, chirp." The nine-colored deer raised its head proudly, but its antlers accidentally hit the upper wall of the cave, causing it to shake its head.
Bai Ze meditates, regulates his breath, and practices the "Chun Yang Zhen Sutra". Since taking the Nine Turns Golden Pill, the meridians throughout his body have more than doubled, and his Qi training has officially entered the stage of breathing and breathing from meditation. Although he is still far from being swallowed by a whale, he has mastered the method of breathing and breathing in a short period of time, which is already very impressive.
Bai Ze adjusted his breath for half an hour to calm down the chaotic Qi in his body, then slowly opened his eyes and took a long breath.
The broken bones were barely connected, and they were nourished by the true air. As long as they were no longer hit hard, they should not break.
Bai Ze stood up from the ground cautiously, circulated the pure yang energy in his body, and evaporated the water vapor on his body, and then he was able to take stock of the surrounding environment.
Although the undercurrent at the bottom of the hot spring lake should be connected to the lake water, the water temperature in this small pool is extremely cold.
Bai Ze was in a dilemma.
If you want to get out from here, go back the same way, find the undercurrent and return to the bottom of the hot spring lake. This is the only way out at present. But Bai Ze didn't know whether the mysterious snake was dead or not. If he were still alive, wouldn't he be seeking death if he left the undercurrent?
"Oh, Master, Master, you really killed me now." Bai Ze got the Mountain Ghost Seal and could see at night. After looking at the pool, he looked towards the narrow cave behind him, and then he realized that the narrow cave behind him was actually There seems to be a way out.
"Haha," Bai Ze was overjoyed when he saw it, "There is no perfect path!" He immediately walked towards the crack in the cave.
Only one person can pass through that crack, and he has to turn sideways. The nine-color spirit deer's antlers are too big to pass through, and he can only return to the seal of the Wufeng Sword.
"I feel sorry for you, Brother Lu." Bai Ze put on both swords and did not dare to delay for fear that the black snake would suddenly emerge from the pool following the undercurrent, and then he would really have no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.
The cracks in the cave extended vertically. Bai Ze groped for dozens of feet in it, and the cracks suddenly opened up. Bai Ze breathed a sigh of relief. He was really afraid that a stone wall would suddenly appear at the end of the crack.
But as soon as the crack appeared in Bai Ze's body, he was immediately stunned. The environment in front of me suddenly became brighter, but this kind of cheerfulness was a bit too exaggerated, right? Bai Zexin said that he could only describe the scene in front of him as if a mountain was hollowed out from the inside.
Big is the first impression.
There is too much space at the end of the crack.
If the sun shines in at this time, Bai Ze will not be surprised that this place is actually a valley, with ravines and crisscrossing ravines, and rolling hills. There is also a stream that penetrates from the mountain wall and flows slowly, from the beginning to the end.
"What the hell is this place?" Bai Ze didn't feel the wind passing through the open space. This was very bad, which meant that there probably wasn't a big air outlet, which could be a life-saving exit.
Bai Ze didn't give up and ran to the open ground near the stream to look for it along the current. But he searched for an hour, and found all the streams. Only the spring water seeped into the mountain wall, and the streams did not flow out. They all ended in the open land, or dried up and penetrated deeper into the ground, or gathered into pools. But very shallow.
"The fish here..." Bai Ze caught a fish from a deeper stream, but the fish was only the size of a finger, had no eyes, and was a blind fish.
The appearance of blind fish indicates that there is no sunlight here. Since there is no light, there is no need for eyes.
"This is a big deal." Bai Ze vaguely realized that something was wrong. If he couldn't find a way out here, wouldn't he have the only way to go back?
Just thinking about the crazy black snake in the hot spring lake, Bai Ze's feet felt cold. He initially judged that the black snake was also a fourth-level monster, equivalent to the supreme realm of human monks.
Supreme.
Bai Ze knew with his toes that at his level, not to mention Zhiwei, even Zhiwei could lift him up and beat him.
Xie Xuan gave Bai Ze a jade tablet when he flew him to Heyang City, saying that he would crush the jade tablet after collecting the elixir, and he would come to take him back to Liuzhuang.
Bai Ze wanted to slap himself to death now. He had placed the jade plaque in that house in the city. If he had taken it with him and crushed the jade plaque now, maybe that unreliable master could come back from thousands of miles away. save him.
"Infinite Heavenly Lord!" Bai Ze wailed.
But the matter has come to an end, and it is useless to say more. Bai Ze took out the dry food he had prepared before from the chess piece seal to deal with his stomach, and drank two sips of stream water to temporarily cheer up.
He didn't give up, walked around the open field, and then gave up. There is no exit, not even a gap. The entire open land was only covered with moss and blind fish in the stream that were not enough to fill the gap between teeth.
Bai Ze figured it out, and in the worst case, he would just go back the way he came. Anyway, Xuan She was almost cut into two pieces by his sword. Maybe it was already dead by now?
Thinking of this, Bai Ze felt much more relaxed and found a dry place to lie down and sleep. While passing through the undercurrent at the bottom of the lake, he was hit on the head. When he woke up, his head was finally not so groggy.
When he woke up, he immediately realized something was wrong.
The spiritual energy in this space is so rich that it's unbelievable.
"Qi transports mountains and rivers." Bai Zemo's unique skill in transporting Taoism, his eyes filled with inner light, and he looked at this space with his heart's eye.
At a glance, Bai Ze was stunned.
"Immeasurable Heavenly Lord. This damn...is it a dragon's lair?!" Bai Ze, who looked like a young man, scolded him directly.
