At the same time, Yijian Villa and others based in southern Xinjiang also received news about Yanyang Northern Territory one after another.
Whether it is the sudden movement of soldiers in various states and cities in the South, or the open rebellion of Beiwa warriors in Hebei, these crises on the surface are all foreshadowing one thing.
The sun will be in chaos, and the country will be in ruins.
But Lu Fengbai didn't take any action and still stayed on the bank of Langcang River, "guarding" the Taxuehou.
This was an agreement he made with someone before the incident, and he must prevent Xiao Baoli from leaving Jianmen Pass.
As for the Taxuehou who was imprisoned in Langcang Pass, he was able to obey the arrangements and did not make too many weird behaviors. He stayed in the pass peacefully.
Yijian Villa camp, inside the main tent.
Lu Fengbai had sorted out all the news he had received in recent days. Some closely related information was outlined and noted with a red pen so that he could associate it with each other.
Just when he was about to cross out the names of Guan Xiao, Zhou Biao and others, there was a sound of brisk footsteps outside the camp.
Soon, a woman wearing a pleated skirt entered the camp.
When Lu Fengbai saw that the visitor was the girl from Ci'an, he gathered the information in front of the desk and looked at the other party with a smile.
He opened his mouth and asked, "Why did Miss Ci'an leave in such a hurry?"
After Ci'an stopped, he put his hands on his knees, and then began to breathe heavily.
She ignored her slurred speech and spoke eagerly.
"Just now I heard... there was a strange noise in the mountains on the upper reaches of the Langcang River... It seemed like the roar of some animal... There is a village there... Can Master Lu take someone there? have a look..."
Lu Fengbai stood up halfway through his words.
He responded: "There are some rare and rare animals hidden in the mountains in southern Xinjiang. Miss Ci'an, don't panic, just stay in the camp!"
At the same time that the white-robed figure made a sound, he had already put on the Qiye and Baitian soldiers in the camp. Judging from his appearance, he was ready to go and investigate in person.
Ci'an took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and then followed Lu Fengbai's pace.
She said: "I'll go with you too! If any villager is injured, I can also help bandage it!"
After Lu Fengbai heard the sound, he was silent for a moment.
He turned to look at the woman behind him and said with a smile: "Then I will ask Miss Ci'an to go with me and help take care of the people in the village!"
Ci'an immediately nodded and shouted "Hello", the end of which was prolonged by her.
In just half a stick of incense, Lu Fengbai had made arrangements for the trip.
After he leaves later, the disciples in the Yijian Villa camp will have to follow the arrangements of Jiang Qingze and Lu Cishan.
The disciples of Yijian Villa who traveled with him all rode fast horses and rushed as far as possible to the villages in the upper reaches of Langcang River.
Before leaving, Lu Fengbai gave Lu Cishan and Jiang Qingze a special warning.
"Be sure to take care of that person..."
"Um!"
Although none of the three people mentioned the name of the caregiver, they all knew the identity of the person. Naturally, it was the Treading Snow Marquis - Xiao Baoli.
While Lu Fengbai and his party were heading north, Ci'an summarized what he heard based on his memories of the previous trip.
About half an hour ago, when she was looking for herbs in the mountains, she heard the roar of animals in the north.
Its momentum was not only deafening, but also spread far and wide.
Regarding this, Lu Fengbai had several speculations in his mind.
Maybe it's similar to the tigers in Lingnan? Or is it the wild boar in southern Xinjiang? Or is it the black snake that caused trouble in southern Xinjiang before?
While Lu Fengbai was guessing, he suddenly remembered some rumors about the beasts in southern Xinjiang.
According to legend, the end of Southern Xinjiang, the southernmost part of Yanyang Dynasty, is a deserted and dense forest swamp.
Because no one will go there, the birds and beasts recuperating there have no biggest danger.
Therefore, in the dense forest and swamp, there are some strange beasts that are called the "King of Beasts".
It is said to be even more miraculous among some of the supernatural beings in Yanyang, or among the scholars in the Southland.
The animals in the Duna forest were all kept in captivity by immortals in ancient times. Mortals must not have any inappropriate thoughts about them, or have the intention to hunt them.
Lu Fengbai looked at the village not far ahead and muttered for no reason.
"It can't really be that strange beast in the swamp..."
Hearing this, Ci'an shook his head as if to cheer himself up.
After all, in her opinion, she is half a local and should not be afraid of these southern Xinjiang rumors.
Ci'an pointed to a place in the village and spoke loudly.
"I vaguely remember that the sound came from that place just now!"
Lu Fengbai looked around when he heard the sound and found that there were no signs of damage to the house. Then he pulled the reins in his hands and walked quickly towards the village.
When everyone from Yijian Villa rushed to the village, they found that although no houses had collapsed, the fences in several roads had been completely damaged.
Lu Feng Bai Huan looked around and quickly found two villagers hiding in the house.
He rode his horse and walked quickly, hugging his fists across the villagers' yard.
Lu Feng spoke in Baiyu, speaking a poor southern Xinjiang dialect.
"Fellow folks, don't panic. We can hear strange noises here, but what kind of animals are here?"
The villagers hiding in the houses seemed to be a little frightened and did not reply to Lu Fengbai's questions immediately.
It wasn't until he moved away from holding his fists that someone in the room spoke timidly.
"Just...a...monster rushed into the village...and was driven away by two passing heroes..."
Lu Fengbai continued to speak: "Can I ask my brother again, where did the monster and the hero go?"
When the villagers in the house heard this, they looked at Lu Fengbai outside the courtyard.
Seeing that the other party was also carrying a sword, his heart gradually relaxed.
The villagers opened their windows and raised their hands to point to the forest to the north of the village.
"He just ran to... that way..."
After finishing these few words, as if all the strength of the villagers had been exhausted, he hurriedly closed the window edge again, and curled up in the house.
He hugged his wife close to his side and kept saying, don't be afraid, don't be afraid...
In fact, in his own heart, he was already scared to death, but at this moment, he still wanted to let his wife not be too frightened by the appearance of the monster.
After Lu Fengbai heard the news, he ordered the four or five disciples of Qijian Villa behind him to stay in the village as a precaution.
He said to Ci'an beside him: "How about Miss Ci'an stay in the village and help take care of the villagers in each household later?"
Ci'an turned around and glanced at the disciples of Yijian Villa who were already heading to various portals.
She shook her head and said: "Master Lu, you don't need to worry about me, it's better to find the beast first. I will take care of myself later!"
Lu Fengbai nodded as a sign, raised his hand and waved forward, then continued to lead the remaining disciples of Yijian Villa toward the mountains and forests to the north.
As they gradually walked into the forest, there were more or less claw marks on both sides of the mountain road.
This mark is extremely huge and cannot be torn out by ordinary animals. Judging from these claw marks, the size of the animal is about as big as three or four military horses standing side by side.
Lu Fengbai warned: "This thing is definitely not an ordinary beast in the forest. You need to be careful later!"
The disciples of Yijian Villa behind him, including Ci'an, all responded and understood.
What a coincidence, just as they made a sound, a roar suddenly echoed through the forest!
Hoho—ho—
Lu Fengbai immediately unsheathed his sword and held the Qiye Knife in his hand. After finding the direction from which the roar came, he immediately pulled the reins and ran forward.
"follow me!"
The disciples of Yijian Villa did the same, holding their respective weapons tightly in their hands, they all followed Lu Fengbai's pace.
As everyone walked through the forest, the roar in their ears became more and more harsh.
It seems that the beast is fighting against external forces again, desperately resisting, trying to break free from the shackles of external forces!
When Lu Fengbai and others rushed out of the forest and saw the open forest land in front of them, as expected, just as he had guessed, it was really a strange existence that was different from ordinary animals.
Looking at its overall appearance, it can be seen that it is a white tiger with a completely white body and a huge body. However, there seem to be some dark lines hidden under the white hair on its neck and limbs.
The people fighting against him were a man and a woman.
The man was waving two strange weapons in his hands, which suddenly became extremely long, like the snake's tail waving and stabbing in front of the white tiger, and suddenly became extremely short, like a sharp blade tightly held in his hand. Then he had to cut forward.
The woman also made a pair of soldiers, which looked like two iron fans. When the fans were opened and closed, light would appear from them. It seemed that there was a mystery hidden in the iron fans!
Hearing the noise coming from behind, the two of them just glanced back and continued to trap and kill the strange beast in front of them.
The man shouted: "If you are a hero who rushes to the rescue of the village, please help me and my wife to raid the formation. You don't need to fight hard. The two of us have a way to kill the vicious beast in front of us on the spot!"
The woman groaned and moved the iron fan in her hand straight forward!
The next moment, the fan suddenly unfolded, and three polar iron blades shot out from it, this time aiming in the direction of the white tiger's right front leg.
Lu Fengbai could see that the two of them were quite strong, but it would take a lot of effort to kill the white tiger, and they might even be injured.
In order to ensure that the man and woman did not harm everyone at Yijian Villa, and at the same time ensure their safety, Lu Fengbai decided to step forward and stop them from taking action.
The white-robed figure patted the horse's back with one hand. His figure had just leapt up, and in the next moment, he had disappeared!
When the man and woman noticed it, a vague figure appeared in front of them.
The illusive white robe still looks like a ghost even in the daylight.
Just as the man and woman hesitated, another dazzling white light flashed in front of them, followed by the sound of two weapons clashing! ?
Clang——Clang——
The man suddenly screamed in surprise. The white-robed figure that suddenly appeared in front of him actually blocked their weapons at the same time, and used this force to knock them back.
He looked further ahead of Lu Fengbai. The ferocious beast opened its bloody mouth, looking like it was about to swallow up all the white robes.
The man shouted loudly: "Draw your sword to block!"
In desperation, he was about to throw the weapon in his hand, but suddenly he heard a burst of laughter from the front.
Lu Fengbai smiled and said: "Brother, there is no need to worry, the thoughts of animals in the mountains and fields are much simpler..."
In the big sleeves of his white robe, a black light suddenly flashed!
In an instant, Qi Ye slashed towards the front legs of the white tiger, knocking the whole white tiger to the ground.
