In this way, Xiao He ran day and night again that day, met with Dong Ge, informed Dong Ge of his approximate itinerary, and asked him to arrange for someone to follow him in the dark so that he could keep in touch with the tribe at any time.
When Dong Ge saw Xiao He, he had been quietly listening to him arrange the tasks. After everything was explained, he asked: "Director, you arranged for me to wait here and not return with the team. Do you have other intentions?"
Xiao He smiled with relief, patted Dong Ge on the shoulder and said, "Don't think too much. Someone must have sent a message to Ao Lin to escape this time, but it won't be you or the dragon you led. Shadow Army, although you have been responsible for intelligence collection, and as the vanguard of this trip, you do have the opportunity to send messages, but emotionally, I am completely willing to believe you, and I believe everyone in the tribe will also believe in Long Shadow Army. Brother, from a rational point of view, I can easily judge that if there is a message from the Dragon Shadow Army, they will either set up an ambush, or escape in advance, or simply unite several main cities to attack the tribe. These are all possible, It is definitely not the situation today. However, for this battle, I asked Uncle Sang Yan to recruit many casual cultivators. I cannot control what they think for the time being. If you are allowed to return to the tribe together, I am afraid there will be some disputes, and I have been here for a long time. The reason is to take Ao Lin’s life, and the second reason is to find out the real reason why the news was leaked, so that the Long Shadow Army can avoid being wronged, and it will also help the stable development of the tribe.”
Dong Ge listened quietly to Xiao He's words and was moved in his heart. After a while, he said: "The Chief Secretary has good intentions, so I won't say a word anymore. As long as the Chief Secretary trusts us, Long Yingjun will do his best and die." already."
Xiao He nodded and said again: "Okay! Don't worry, if anyone in the tribe doubts you again, I will protect you with my life."
Dong Ge looked at Xiao He and was speechless for a long time.
Before dawn, Xiao He set off again. He wanted to rush back to Juxuan City as soon as possible and follow the army to join Tianlang City. The young master of Juxuan City has now led his troops and is ready to go. And Xiao He also traveled day and night to rush back to Juxuan City.
"Brother Xiao!" Yu Wenjing stood in front of the team and happily greeted Xiao He when he came back.
Xiao He looked at the young and capable Yu Wenjing, smiled gently, and said, "Brother, are you ready?"
"Yes! Brother Xiao." Yu Wenjing responded.
Xiao He thought for a while and said, "I should think of a false name for this trip. First, it can deceive others, and second, it can avoid the two words Xiao He from bringing unnecessary trouble to Juxuan City in the future."
Yu Wenjing naturally didn't see this either, so he followed Xiao He's wishes and asked, "What name does Brother Xiao want to give you?"
Xiao He lowered his head and thought deeply, thinking: I am new to learning natural Taoism. I put the properties of wood first, so I chose the character "Lin" for my surname. I also remembered that I came in and out of the cultivation gate, and my master Tianyanzi taught me earnestly, so I chose the character "Yan" for my name. Character. Then he said: "Call me Linyan!"
Yu Wenjing nodded and ordered someone to lead a tall horse to Xiao He. This time he walked side by side with Xiao He and led the team to set off.
On the way, Yu Wenjing told Xiao He that this operation was not a gathering in Tianlang City, but a gathering point agreed upon by both parties.
"Why did Tianlang City think of cooperating with Juxuan City?" Xiao He asked on the way.
Yu Wenjing replied: "Sirian Wolf City, like Wuyang City, has tense relations with the other major cities and there are frictions from time to time. Only Juxuan City has always remained neutral. Although they have tried several invitations in the divine domain before, But we all refused directly, and this time we still haven’t replied, and we happened to meet Xiao...Brother Lin about your matter, so we just went with the flow."
Xiao He rode on his horse, smiled brightly, and said, "I heard that these two main cities are acting despicably, so we still have to be extra careful."
Yu Wenjian also nodded and said, "Brother Lin said exactly what he said, we must proceed with caution this time."
The two led the team and set off at sunrise. Before sunset, they arrived at the agreed upon dense forest. Deep in the dense forest, the bright moon hangs high, and in the ears are the cheerful calls of unknown birds, mixed with the rustling of the leaves in the breeze and the tinkling of the creek, which makes people feel relaxed and happy. Xiao He and Yu Wenjing led their troops to dismount and walk on foot. Soon, a group of figures were seen not far away.
"The person wearing a gray gown and a female-looking face is the leader of this trip to Tianlang City. His name is Pamu.
I haven't seen much of the rest of them. Yu Wenjing introduced in a low voice from the side.
Xiao He asked again: "Is Ao Lin among them?"
Hearing this, Yu Wenjing inspected carefully, pointed to one person and said, "When I entered the Tongtian Fortress from the Divine Realm, I briefly met someone from Wuyang City. If I remember correctly, it should be him."
Xiao He followed what Yu Wenjing expected, and under the moonlight he saw a thin man not far from Pamu. He had a shoulder-length hair and a somewhat free and easy look. His eyes were deep, but his lips were as thin as a sword and his eyebrows were narrow. He has a cunning look on his face that makes people reluctant to trust him. He looked very similar to the substitute he saw in Wuyang City that day. There was another woman standing next to him. She looked like she was thirty-seven or eighteen years old. Xiao He looked at the woman and felt strange in his heart. This woman's eyes held all kinds of charm, but there was a hint of resentment at the corner of her mouth, which was unpredictable. However, when the woman's eyes met Xiao He's, a glint of light flashed through her eyes, but then she became dull again.
"It should be him!" Xiao He said to himself.
"Are the brothers from Juxuan City here?" Pamu shouted loudly in the direction of the two of them.
"Exactly! Yu Wenjing from Juxuan City is here to meet you all!" Yu Wenjing responded, and then ordered the others to wait where they were. He and Xiao He met with Pa Mu and others.
"Brother, you came at the right time!" Pamu said happily, his voice was very hearty. "Come here, let me introduce you."
Immediately, Pamu pulled Yu Wenjing to his side and said to everyone: "This is Yu Wenjing, the young master of Juxuan City. He has already reached eighteen levels of cultivation at a young age. He is truly a young hero." After saying that, he looked at him again. Standing next to Yu Wenjing, Xiao He, wearing an apricot yellow robe and carrying a broad heavy sword on his back, asked: "Young Master Yuwen, who is this brother next to you?"
Yu Wenjing then introduced: "This is my eldest brother Lin Yan, who will lead the team on this trip to Juxuan City!"
Pamu was even more happy and said: "Juxuan City can really recruit talents from all over the world! Two brothers, let me introduce to you! We have three teams on this trip: Wuyang City, Tianlang City, and Juxuan City. This is Wuyang Ao Lin, the young master of the city!"
Hearing the words "young master of Wuyang City", a strange expression flashed across Ao Lin's face, but he did not speak. Pamu continued: "The woman next to him is his wife and my sister, Paia."
Xiao He and Yu Wenjing nodded towards them, and Ao Lin and Pa also responded with smiles.
Yu Wenjing continued to ask: "Brother Pamu, what kind of magical beast are you going to catch on this trip? Are you going to trap so many people and set off together?"
Pamu explained: "It is me, the secret agent of Tianlang City, who discovered a huge pit near the center of Tongtian Fortress. There are countless monsters in the pit. Tianlang City does not dare to have it all to itself, so I invite you all to come. First, to take care of each other." , to ensure the safety of this trip, and secondly, please come and subdue the monsters and improve the strength of our main cities."
"I'm afraid there are three more?" Xiao He asked with a smile.
Pamu was stunned for a moment, then laughed heartily and said, "Brother Lin Yan is right, my spies made huge discoveries in the pit. We found that this place seemed to be an ancient battlefield, and we found a few things outside the huge pit. There are corpses of unknown age, and their immortal artifacts have not been picked up by anyone, and these corpses are not from the aboriginal people here."
"That should undoubtedly be an ancient battlefield." Xiao He said.
Pamu nodded and continued: "That's why I didn't dare to go there rashly alone, so I called Wuyang and Juxuan cities to jointly explore to ensure the safety of this trip. What we get is our own, how about it?"
"I think it's okay!" Yu Wenjing said. "Are we leaving now?"
Pamu shook his head and said: "This place is not far from the pit. Let's rest here and set off at dawn!"
So, everyone dispersed without any more greetings. In the evening, Xiao He walked alone outside the station, preparing to catch some game to enjoy.
"Master Lin, it's so late at night, why don't you rest?" A woman's voice suddenly sounded. Xiao He turned around and saw that the speaker was the woman who was standing next to Ao Lin just now.
"Didn't you take a break too?" Xiao He asked.
Paya smiled, as if she knew that Xiao He cared about her identity and didn't want to say anything. But she didn't seem to care much. She walked directly in front of Xiao He and faced him like this
Standing face to face. Xiao He lowered his head and looked at her. This woman's expression was completely different from when Ao Lin was there just now. She had a thin layer of makeup on her face and a faint blush. There was spring between her brows and eyes. Her eyes were extremely bright, far from being as dull as before. She He just raised his head and looked into Xiao He's eyes with a half-smile, not knowing what he was thinking about, his eyes seemed to be flowing with spring light.
Xiao He looked at the woman and took two steps back, thinking that he really knew people well. This woman was obviously very charming, so why was she so cold around Ao Lin.
"Brother Lin, what are you doing here?" Paia asked.
Xiao He said: "I was greedy for a while, so I wanted to find some game and roast it."
When Paya heard this, she smiled so much that she said, "Speaking of which, I haven't had this pleasure for a long time. I wonder if I can let my tongue enjoy it today?"
Xiao He frowned, feeling as if he was being teased by the woman in front of him, and said, "Madam should be with Ao Lin, the young lord of Wuyang City at the moment, right?"
Hearing Aolin's name, a trace of displeasure flashed across Paya's face, and she murmured in a low voice: "What kind of young city lord is he?" After saying that, she turned to smile again and said: "He is practicing meditation. The two of them are protecting him, and they can no longer care about me at this time..."
Xiao He smiled helplessly. Just when he didn't know what to say, there was a rustling sound in the grass next to his ears. Xiao He slapped his hand over, and a rabbit with low cultivation level was beaten to the ground. Xiao He skillfully peeled off the skin and meat of the rabbit and roasted it alone. Not long after, the plump rabbit had been roasted by Xiao He until it was sizzling with oil, and Xiao He couldn't help but want to feast on it.
"Young Master Lin, are you really unwilling to share a little bit with your little girl?" Paia asked, her expressions continuing to express spring as she spoke.
Xiao He didn't look at her, he just tore off two rabbit legs and threw them to the woman.
