Snapped!
There was a crisp sound.
The old man did not know when he had returned to the animal-skin boy, slapped him directly on the back of the head, and spoke in a low voice, nervously:
"Idiot, stop looking!"
The boy in animal skin covered the back of his head and looked at his master with doubtful eyes.
"Master, what...what happened?"
As he spoke, the boy inadvertently glanced at the woman's back from the corner of his eye.
The beautiful figure in the palace dress is flying in the snow, no trace of snow can be seen, and the long hair is pouring down. It is indescribably beautiful and elegant, and seems a bit out of tune with everything around it.
Just like a clear lotus blooming in the mud.
She seemed to be going to town.
Turning her face sideways, the inscription lamp on the ancient city wall reflected on the ice and snow and shone on her face, which made her skin color crystal clear, as soft as jade, and her golden eyes were filled with a touch of divinity.
After almost a moment's pause, the girl walked straight past them towards the city wall.
Snapped!
The knowledgeable Shichang slapped the white-armored soldier on the head who was stunned by the woman's appearance, and cursed in a low voice:
"Stop looking! This token belongs to someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion. The girl's cultivation just now is unfathomable!"
Why are those white-armored soldiers who are arrogant and impatient in front of the master like docile sheep in front of the girl?
Snapped!
Just as he was thinking about it, he slapped the beast-skin boy on the head again. The thick bearskin hat could not stop the strength of the master's hand at all:
"You're still looking at it, you're still looking at it! Do you want us, master and apprentice, to die like this together?"
Compared to Beifeng Shichang's nervousness, the voice of the old man in animal skin was filled with a hint of anger and fear.
The animal-skin boy immediately calmed down.
He has never seen his master like this. In his mind, the master is always unchanging.
Although he was puzzled, the animal-skin boy honestly withdrew his gaze and didn't ask any more questions.
The old man and the young man just stood there in the snowy gap in front of the Beifeng City Wall, nervously waiting for the girl's figure to gradually disappear into the Beifeng City where countless corpses of great flame warriors and barbarians had been buried. Inside the huge and towering doorway.
For a long time,
The voice of the boy in animal skin came carefully, as if he was afraid of being slapped again: "Master, that beautiful woman just now is really beautiful."
"enough."
With lingering fear, the old man in animal skin tied the snakeskin bag containing a hundred taels of silver to the horse. He turned his eyes and said seriously: "Little boy, we are just people in the world. We are practicing martial arts. Just now, he was a true immortal."
The animal-skin boy seems to understand:
"Master, Master, why are you so nervous?"
"The immortal's temper is unpredictable, just like those officials in the big cities, whose temper is unpredictable."
The old man shook his head and said with lingering fear: "My junior fellow apprentice was killed at will just because he glanced at a few immortals who came down the mountain."
The animal skin boy frowned for the first time:
"Why not take revenge?"
In his eyes, it is natural and right to pay for one's life by killing someone and paying one's debts.
The old man opened his mouth, his eyes complicated, and he suddenly began to hesitate in his heart whether to send the young man to the Imperial Capital.
Although the Imperial Capital was huge, prosperous, and full of countless opportunities, it did not seem to be a good choice for the innocent young man in front of him.
In silence, the old man got on his horse, pulled the young man up, and rode towards the south:
"It's my fault that the master is incompetent, but if you get to the Imperial Capital, you must restrain your naive temperament, watch less, listen less, talk less, and do more."
"Oh" the young man was still puzzled: "Then we won't take revenge?"
"."
The old man suddenly felt helpless, and as he gradually faded away, his voice contained a hint of hearty smile: "If you can become an immortal, it's not impossible, if you are strong enough.
"Tong Xi, remember, although we are martial arts masters in front of the common people, in front of the real dignitaries, we are just ants."
As he spoke, the old man glanced back at the snakeskin bag tied to the horse:
"We agreed to one hundred and sixty taels, even if these soldiers and thieves only give us less than half, the master still has to laugh and see their mood. If the master can step into the innate world, the situation will be completely different.
"Little boy, you must become stronger in the future, so strong that no one dares to bully you!"
The young man seems to understand:
"oh"
"Okay, let's kill some more barbarians, and then I'll take you to the Imperial Capital."
The voices of the two masters and apprentices gradually faded away in the endless snowfield, gradually turning into two black spots and disappearing, and the other side of the giant city's northern seal also welcomed a new guest or owner.
A huge gryphon flew directly over the hundred-foot giant wall without being inspected by the city gate. With the cry of a huge eagle, it fell into the dilapidated Monster Beast Department in the city.
Greeted by a group of people dressed in monster beast suits, a man and two women silently jumped down from the huge gryphon.
Although the city is dilapidated, some simple wooden shacks have been built.
Li Qingyan didn't seem to have any intention of revealing his whereabouts. Before getting off the gryphon, he gave Xu Yuan and Bai Muxi each a black curtain. He also put on a black outfit. What he showed to the Monster Beast Division was not a princess. Token, but an identity token representing the captain.
However, the status of a school lieutenant is almost the highest in the Beifeng Army, and he can move freely in Beifeng City under martial law without any pressure.
Under the guidance of the people from the Monster Beast Department, the three of them got on the monster beast and walked towards the city.
This is the first time Bai Muxi has seen the giant city on the ground. There is a little curiosity and confusion in her bright eyes. However, due to the "special training" given to her by Li Qingyan over the past month, she did not say much and just took the ride obediently. The horses followed.
Looking at both sides of the dilapidated street, Xu Yuan pulled the reins and suddenly asked Li Qingyan in a low voice:
"Qing Yan, why do we have to stay in Beifeng City?"
Li Qingyan, who was wearing a black coat that covered her breasts, looked back and said with a smile:
"Why, our third young master can't wait to return to Beijing to marry me?"
Xu Yuan chuckled and replied without hesitation:
"Don't make promises here. Promises that cannot be fulfilled will become shackles. Your Highness, the promises you made have not been fulfilled in this month."
Speaking of which,
He whispered:
"Tsk, tsk, Li Qingyan keeps his word."
"."
A flash of unnaturalness flashed across Li Qingyan's pure and beautiful face. He took a deep breath and pretended not to hear it. He answered the question unintentionally:
"Although the barbarian king has been eliminated, I am still worried about the decisive battle with the barbarian army within the territory."
Xu Yuan didn't say anything more about the matter just now, but followed the topic with interest:
"Are you worried that the imperial army will be defeated?"
"That's not the case. After losing the Barbarian King, the barbarians are like wolves whose teeth and claws have been pulled out. Their defeat is almost certain."
Li Qingyan's voice had a hint of smile, but then he said with a hint of solemnity: "But there are many things that I need to confirm first. At the very least, we have to confirm whether the defeated barbarian army still retains its organizational structure. If so, we will directly If you were to hit me while riding a gryphon heading south, it would be difficult for me to save you with my current injured condition."
Xu Yuan heard what Li Qingyan meant and narrowed his eyes:
"At the very least, are you worried that our father and the others have already taken action against the sects in the three northern continents?"
Li Qingyan turned his eyes and did not reply, but there was a hint of snow-like coldness in his magnificent red eyes.
She has not forgotten that the fall of Beifeng City was due to the inaction of these sects, and she will not forget the blood feud that the sects have left on the border soldiers in the past ten years.
Now that the moment of reckoning is finally coming, how can she go directly south to the Imperial Capital?
Because of the curtain, Xu Yuan couldn't see the expression on Li Qingyan's face clearly, but he could roughly guess her emotions. He touched the Sumeru Ring that belonged to the Barbarian King on his fingertips and suddenly asked through a voice:
"Qing Yan, what are you going to do with our second brother?"
"How do you want to handle it?"
"There has been no news from us for such a long time. I guess he must have thought that we died suddenly."
".Won't."
"Um?"
"."
Li Qingyan took a deep breath and said in a cold voice:
"I said that second brother would not be so naive."
Xu Yuan frowned slightly:
"How to say?"
Li Qingyan glanced far to the south, and seemed to see the face of the second prince through the city wall, with a cold look on his lips:
"You'll understand if you put yourself in my shoes."
Xu Yuan raised his hand and touched his chin, thoughtfully:
"The design will transport us into the barbarian camp. If the plan goes well, it is impossible for the barbarian king Chi Kuang to disappear with us. Is this what you mean?"
"Absolutely." Li Qingyan nodded slightly: "I am not familiar with this second brother, but I have heard some things about him. If I can think of it, he can probably think of it too."
Xu Yuan shook his head and said leisurely:
"And we have no evidence."
Li Qingyan glanced at Xu Yuan and smiled:
"Indeed not, but don't you have the body of the vixen?"
"."
Xu Yuan suddenly fell silent.
Nanjinxi?
In fact, he didn't have much dislike for this vixen. On the contrary, he even thought she was very pathetic.
As one of the three kings of the fox clan, he died lightly for a heartless person. After being skinned and cramped, he lay silently in the dead Sumeru Ring.
In silence, Xu Yuan whispered:
"Even if the second prince really has feelings for him, his government will not admit it, and he will not show anything unusual at all."
Li Qingyan's beautiful and heroic eyebrows were slightly raised, and his eyes curved into two crystal crescents:
"But at least I can disgust him. How about giving him a bowl of fox porridge when I see him again?"
The corners of Xu Yuan's eyes twitched, and then he smiled and said:
"Do you think he can drink?"
Li Qingyan raised his eyes to look at the gloomy sky and hummed softly:
"If he doesn't want to drink it, he has to give it to me."
During the conversation, a group of three people had been led by the people from the Monster Beast Division to the captain's camp in Beifeng City.
The one currently guarding Beifeng City is the Xuanwu Camp of the Fourth Baijia Town of Beifeng. According to Li Qingyan, this is the direct lineage given to her by Uncle Mu.
The soldiers and horses of the six towns in Beifeng, the fourth town and the sixth town, were assigned by Marquis Wu Cheng to Li Qingyan, the heir of the royal family.
Li Qingyan did not hide this from Xu Yuan.
But after Xu Yuan learned this, he suddenly couldn't understand the relationship between Wu Chenghou and the royal family.
The Beifeng Army should basically be regarded as Wu Chenghou's private army, just like the Zhenxi Army is to Xu Yuan's good-breasted brother Li Junwu's father.
Marquis Wu Cheng was a royalist, but according to Xu Yuan's understanding, the reason why the royalists stayed loyal to the emperor was because it could bring them greater benefits.
It's equivalent to a bet.
However, Wu Chenghou did not support his troops and respect himself. Instead, his private soldiers directly surrendered to the royal family, sacrificing their own interests to protect the emperor.
Stepping into the camp, a strong man in white armor was sitting in the main seat, flipping through military affairs files. When he saw the three people coming in, he just raised his eyelids and said in a low voice, impatient:
"I wonder why the three of you came here?"
"."
Xu Yuan was a little weird.
Is this a direct lineage? Can you put up a curtain and change your clothes so that you don't recognize your immediate boss?
Li Qingyan said nothing and glanced around at the other generals working in the camp.
The captain frowned slightly, sighed, and waved his hand to his subordinates impatiently, signaling them to get down.
After a few breaths, only Xu Yuan and the white-armored captain were left in the entire camp.
After retreating everyone, the strong man in white armor stepped down from the main seat, then knelt down, his voice trembling:
"Your Highness, are you okay?"
Yes, it turns out I recognized it.
Now I'm acting with this breast-hugging princess.
However, the people sitting in these positions are all smart people, and they can figure out the meaning of their superiors just by meeting them.
Xu Yuan cursed in his heart, but from the corner of his eye, he saw Li Qingyan walking past the captain, walking to the main seat and sitting down. He looked at the strong man in white armor below and said:
"How are things going now?"
As a direct descendant, the strong man in white armor knew exactly what His Highness in front of him was asking. He subconsciously glanced at the two unknown people next to him. Seeing that Li Qingyan didn't say anything, he whispered directly:
"It has already begun. The mountain gates of Tianqiong Palace and Qiqingmen were breached by Mr. Zong and Commander Shi respectively a decade ago."
Commander Shi, the commander of the sixth town of Beifeng.
The words fell silent,
Li Qingyan took off the curtain and put it on the desk. The look on his face seemed to be that he had expected it. He tapped the desk gently and thought a little:
"Where are the other mountain gates? Is there any action?"
The strong man in white armor thought for a moment:
"I'm sorry, Your Highness, I will be on duty here in Beifeng City. I don't know much detailed information."
Li Qingyan glanced at him:
"Has the communication crystal in the city been repaired?"
The strong man in white armor knew that His Highness wanted to contact the Imperial Capital and immediately nodded:
"It has been repaired. May Your Highness use it?"
Li Qingyan pondered for a moment but did not go immediately. Instead, he said:
"There's no rush, please tell me what you know first."
The strong man in white armor half-knelt on the ground and immediately recounted the major events that occurred in Dayan after Li Qingyan and Xu Yuan disappeared.
The decisive battle between the imperial court and the barbarians.
The defeat of the barbarian army.
The Holy Spirit mobilized the army through the order to massacre the barbarians.
Use "blocking the sun" to block the sect's mountain gate.
as well as
"Just now a woman came to the Imperial Capital, holding the token of the Sword Master of the Prime Minister's Palace."
"."
After hearing the end, Li Qingyan glanced at Xu Yuan calmly:
"Changtian, are they looking for you?"
Xu Yuan hesitated slightly and asked subconsciously:
"General, can you tell me the characteristics of that woman in detail?"
The strong man in white armor hesitated slightly:
"Golden Eyes"
"clatter"
Before the strong man in white armor finished speaking, Xu Yuan's fingers trembled and he subconsciously took a step back.
broken.
Li Qingyan frowned when he saw this:
"What’s wrong with you?"
Xu Yuan was silent for a while, twitched the corner of his mouth, and said cautiously:
"The one I told you before in the Imperial Capital is the Saint of Jiantian Pavilion."
"."
A flash of memory flashed through Li Qingyan's eyes, and he immediately realized who this woman was, and his eyes curved into two crystal crescents:
"Colonel Zhang."
"The end will be here."
"Call this saint up and tell me that I want to see her."
"."Xu Yuan.
