Baize, Kongchan, and Kongkong headed straight for Longhai County.
The residence of King Liang, the uncle of the Great Zhou Dynasty, is located in the county town.
The three of them flew all the way with their weapons at extremely fast speeds. Within three days, they had reached the boundary of the county and city.
It was getting late that day, and the three of them rested in a small town fifty miles away from the county town. The town is not big, but it is close to the county town, but it is quite prosperous. It was already dark, but the whole town was brightly lit, and people were coming and going on the streets, ranging from sword-bearing monks to ordinary residents.
The three of them found a restaurant, ate and drank enough, and asked for two more guest rooms.
When he came to Longhai County again, Bai Ze felt quite emotional.
Two years ago, he and Sun Qi participated in the Mountain Gate Conference organized by the Immortal Sect's disciples in Longhai County, met Jiang Wei, swam along the Yongji River, climbed the Stork Tower, and watched the swordsman Wang Zhihuan say: "The sun is over the mountains, and the Yellow River flows into the sea. ", I realized that the sword is three long rivers and the sun sets.
Everything in the past, when I think about it carefully, seems like it was just yesterday.
But now he is no longer the young man who just entered the Zi Mansion. If it weren't for the Kunlun Secret Realm, he would have broken through it in one fell swoop and reached the Supreme Level of the Four Realms.
Along the way of practice, you will know the three realms of the world of mortals, the sea of suffering, and the other shore.
How many people have never seen the vastness of the Nine Heavens of the Sea of Bitterness.
On the other side of the Heavenly Gate, how many people are blocked by three Heavenly Gates.
Zhiwei has one hundred and eight acupoints and five purple mansions. How many people have never appreciated its elegance.
It took Bai Ze three years to complete the cultivation of the three realms of mortals. It can be said that he is not a genius.
Twelve years of reciting the "Infinite Sutra" to nourish Qi, just for these three years to soar to the sky. The two special skills of the Sword Emperor lineage taught by Xie Xuan personally, Qi Luck Mountains and Rivers, and Wendao Borrowing Swords, made Bai Ze even more powerful on the road of sword cultivation.
The innate Taoist divine body, inherited Jianzi's unique skills in the sea of suffering, and obtained the sword without edge. Half a step to the other side, break into Dushan Mountain and get the Xuanhuang Dragon Soul. One night, I entered Zhiwei, fought fiercely in Weicheng, and witnessed the bloody battle at Hulao Pass.
Become a disciple of the Yunhai Immortal Sect, survive nine deaths in Qilian Mountain, and escape from prison. During the battle in Thousand Caves City, he entered the Tiankeng and saw the elegance of the Heavenly Sword.
Bai Ze has come to today step by step. If a storyteller knows all about his past, he must be regarded as a legend in the north.
"Junior brother Baize, it's getting late today. I think the city gates should have been closed when I come to the county town." Kong Chan saw Bai Ze lost in thought and said warmly, "Junior brother, please take care of yourself during the trip to the county town tomorrow."
Bai Ze came back to his senses, heard the words, and said, "Senior Brother Kongchan said before that he wanted to come to the county to meet someone, but there is no news about that person?"
As soon as Bai Ze heard Kong Chan's words, he knew that the time to say goodbye had come.
The monk in white shook his head and said: "As for the news, there is actually no news. Just because the time agreed with that person has not come yet, Junior Brother Bai Ze has been anxious to get together with everyone from Yunhai Xianmen these days, and it is in a hurry. Yes. I think the poor monk and junior brother will stay here for a few more days."
After hearing this, Bai Ze felt a little embarrassed in his heart. Just when he was about to speak, Kong Chan smiled and shook his head, "Junior brother Bai Ze, please don't say polite words. When you and I met in Qilian Mountains, the poor monk felt that he was not the same as Bai Ze." Junior brother and I have good karma. The poor monk also feels quite happy getting along with each other these days."
"Okay." Bai Ze also smiled and said to Kong Chan, "Mountains and rivers meet each other. Brother Kong Chan, we will see you later!"
"That's natural." Kong Chan smiled.
"There's me too!" Kong Kong looked at Bai Ze, "Bai Ze, we'll meet again soon!"
"Haha, that's for sure!" Bai Ze laughed.
Kong Chan opened the door and saw that Bai Ze had no intention of going to his wing. He paused and said, "Junior brother Bai Ze, are you going to go out for a walk?"
"Yes." Bai Ze nodded, "I plan to go out and inquire. It's been a long time since I was kidnapped by the demon girl. I don't know if Senior Sister and the others have arrived at Prince Liang's Mansion safely."
"Don't worry, lucky people have their own destiny." Kong Chan said with a smile, and then said in a deep tone, "It's just that Junior Brother Bai Ze should be careful when doing things here."
"What?" Bai Ze asked in surprise.
"This poor monk always felt like someone was following him along the way." Kong Chan said.
Bai Ze's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "With Senior Brother Kongchan's cultivation level, I don't know who is following us?"
The monk in white shook his head, "I hope this poor monk is worrying too much."
"Okay." Bai Ze nodded and said, "Brother Kongchan, please rest early. I will pay more attention."
"That's very good." Kong Chan said, and after Kong Kong said goodbye to Bai Ze, he entered the room.
Bai Ze waited for the door to close and walked downstairs slowly, lost in thought. The name Kong Chan is also widely spread in the north. This monk is similar in age to the second senior brother, but he is already a sage in the fifth realm, and his cultivation is unfathomable. Who could he be? He could only detect that someone was following him, but couldn't tell who the other person was?
Could it be that guy?
Bai Ze thought of the man who peeked at Hong Luan bathing in the bamboo forest that day. The man's cultivation was also unfathomable. He called himself Ye Liangchen. During the conversation, he seemed to be quite familiar with Chu Yang from Jixia Academy. He had no ill intentions towards Bai Ze at that time.
Especially at the end, Ye Liangchen kicked Bai Ze when he disappeared into the bamboo forest, and kicked him into Kong Chan's hand. It was clear that he was helping Bai Ze out of the siege, and logically speaking, he shouldn't be following him. Bar?
Bai Ze couldn't think of a reason, so he simply didn't want to think too much, shook his head, pressed his sword and left the restaurant.
But the young man didn't know that the moment he walked out of the restaurant, a pair of eyes had been staring at him from the nearby attic.
There was no lamp in the attic, so the room was dark.
The young master gently shook his folding fan and looked at him with a sinister look.
"Sir, everything has been arranged." The secret guard knelt down on one knee and said to the young man sitting by the window.
"Very good." The young master put away his folding fan, and the sound was full of murderous intent. He saw Bai Ze leaving the restaurant and walking towards the long street, with a sinister smile on his lips, "If you don't play the previous chess game, I want to see, Bai Ze, whether you can handle this game or not!"
"Young Master has planned carefully. With this layout, I expect that Bai Ze will not be able to escape," the secret guard said.
"Hehe, that's natural." The young master smiled solemnly, "This plan is so big, how can a young boy like him, who is new to the world, be able to break it? It's just that you chose the wrong person, Bai Ze... ..." After saying that, he paused for a moment and then asked, "What's going on with the Immortal Sect?"
"Everything is fine." The secret guard replied.
"Then just sit back and wait for the end." The young master sighed, and tapped the square table in front of him with his slender fingers, making a low thumping sound.
…
Longhai County has special significance to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Although the Royal Court of the Great Zhou Dynasty is located in Haojing, Longhai is the ancestral court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the origin of this huge dynasty in the north.
The town is only fifty miles away from the county seat, so the news is very good. Therefore, Bai Ze did not spend much effort to find out the news that Chen Qing and his party had safely escorted Liang Shiyu and others back to Prince Liang's Mansion.
But then, he learned another piece of news. A few months ago, my uncle had an old illness and was bedridden. But not long ago, Prince Liang was suddenly assassinated in his palace. The target of the assassin was suddenly Prince Liang!
Rumor has it that the assassin who assassinated King Liang has been captured by the masters raised by the palace and imprisoned in the dungeon of the palace. But the news about Liang Wang is very different.
Some people say that King Liang is probably dead because of that assassination.
But there are also rumors that King Liang was not approached by the assassin and was not seriously injured.
Bai Ze listened in his heart, and his doubts were cleared up. No wonder Miss Liang Shiyu, the legitimate grandson of Prince Liang, was assassinated on her way home, and there was no movement in Prince Liang's residence. It turned out that something happened in the palace at that time, so he had no time to take care of himself.
"Fortunately, senior sister and the others successfully returned the person to the palace without any danger, and they have completed the escort mission." Bai Zexin added, "Let's rest here for one night, and we will go to the county town early tomorrow morning to meet up with senior sister."
Bai Ze wandered aimlessly along the long street. There was a night market on the street and the sound of hawking was endless. But for some reason, he always felt vaguely uneasy.
"Masks, masks! Ten yuan each!" A vendor stopped to sell on the street. There were various masks hanging on the cart, including white fox, civet cat, prajna, monkey head and other styles.
Bai Ze only listened to the cries of hawkers all over the street, and the smell of fireworks made him sink into it.
"Hey, shopkeeper, this white fox mask is really nice. I want one." Suddenly, Bai Ze heard a familiar voice ringing from the crowd. He immediately became alert and looked in the direction of the cart.
I saw a girl in black standing cutely next to the cart, playing with the white fox mask in her hand. When Bai Zefu saw the girl's back, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning.
The girl in black has long hair scattered, slanting like silk and satin, which is charming. She has a graceful figure and wears a short skirt, less than knee length.
This kind of dress is definitely not the style of Zhou women.
A shadow of a person flashed in Bai Ze's mind like lightning and thunder, and he subconsciously shouted: "A ghost?"
The girl who was playing with the white fox mask in front of the cart heard Bai Ze's voice and was stunned for a moment, but she quickly put on the mask and ran away without even looking at Bai Ze.
"Hey, girl! I haven't paid yet!" The vendor was stunned when he saw the girl put on the mask and ran away.
"Ghost, stop! It's me, Bai Ze!" When Bai Ze saw the girl running away, he felt that she was the ghost. Although it was just a back view, after all, he had spent a lot of time together in the sinkhole, so Bai Ze was still sure of his own vision.
Coupled with the obscenely short skirt, if Bai Ze could identify the wrong person, he would poke himself in the eyes on the spot!
The girl in black heard Bai Ze's shout, but did not stop. She only glanced sideways at Bai Ze. Under the white fox mask, a pair of bright red eyes are full of cunning.
When Bai Ze saw those eyes, he no longer hesitated.
During the battle in the Tiankeng, the turbulence of time and space swept across all directions. He once thought that the girl possessed by the Ghost Emperor's Heart had perished in the turbulence of time and space. But thinking about it, how could Agui die so easily when he had the heart of a ghost emperor?
But why does she appear here?
Bai Ze was a little hesitant. He didn't know whether the soul under the girl's body at this moment was the ghost he was familiar with, or the murderous Ghost Emperor Ning Jing.
But at this moment of hesitation, the girl in black had already ran out of the long street.
Bai Ze gritted his teeth and decided to catch up.
