Wu Zetian was silent for a moment, of course she didn't want to go down the mountain at a good time. After finally finding someone with whom she could talk a few words, but he was about to leave, Wu Zetian naturally felt disappointed.
Wu Zetian originally wanted to ask Liangchen to stay and go down the mountain in exchange for the beautiful scenery. But she also knew that Feiyun and the other three would not pay any attention to her words, and they might anger Mei Mei, which was asking for trouble. Wu Zetian had no choice but to keep silent.
Liangchen saw that Wu Zetian was a little depressed, so he comforted her and said that he would go up the mountain early tomorrow morning. After Liangchen finished speaking, he stood up, said something to Feiyun and Meijing, and was about to leave the cave.
Mei Mei suddenly remembered something and said she wanted to send Liang Chen off, so she pulled Fei Yun and the two of them sent Liang Chen outside the cave entrance.
Seeing no one around, Liangchen smiled and said, "Third sister, if you have anything to say, just say it quickly! Don't delay me coming down the mountain!"
Meimei told Feiyun and Liangchen about Furong's idea of becoming a disciple, and said that she thought Furong had good qualifications and was a martial arts prodigy, so she should be able to accept her.
Although Liangchen said that she also likes Furong very much, she also agrees with Mei Mei's view. But she also thinks that the current situation is complicated and she really has no time to think about anything else. Accepting a disciple must be approved by the master, but how could he take Furong to meet the master now?
Feiyun refused the beautiful scenery's proposal. He felt that it was absolutely impossible. First of all, they can't make the decision without Lin Yue's permission. He also thought that even if Fleur was willing, her parents would not agree. They will leave this place soon and are unlikely to come here again in the future, so there is really no need to be fussy.
Feiyun was not happy when he saw the beautiful scenery, so he said: "Third sister, we are doing it for Furong's own good, so why let her get involved in the world? We have experienced a lot of dangers. Do you want her to be in danger? If you feel sorry for her, , just teach her some basic kung fu in private so that she can strengthen her body."
Seeing that Feiyun was resolute, Meimei had no choice but to agree. Feiyun and Liangchen also made sense. Without Lin Yue's permission, the three of them really couldn't make the decision in private.
Liangchen then said goodbye to Feiyun and the beautiful scenery, turned around and walked down the mountain. It wasn't until Liangchen's back disappeared from sight that Feiyun and the beautiful scenery slowly returned to the cave.
As soon as Liangchen left, Wu Zetian rarely talked to Feiyun and Meimei. Feiyun and the two were not good at talking, unlike Liangchen, who had a lively personality and loved to talk and laugh. They saw that Wu Zetian ignored them, so they ignored Wu Zetian.
Mrs. Wang and Wang Hai did not bother the three of them, but arranged for someone to monitor them from a distance. The two sides have no influence on each other and are secretly wary of each other. The night passed like this, and dawn came again in a blink of an eye.
Shortly after dawn, Hua'er came to Feiyun and said, "The old lady invites you to go outside the cave together. She is already waiting outside!"
Feiyun naturally knew what Mrs. Wang meant, so he asked Hua'er to tell Mrs. Wang first and they would go out immediately. Hua'er nodded, turned and left.
Feiyun and Meimei stood up and said to Wu Zetian: "Mrs. Li, you have to bow your head when you are under the eaves. Let's go out!"
Wu Zetian glanced coldly at the flying clouds and the beautiful scenery, without making a sound, she just stood up silently. Feiyun was in front, Wu Zetian was in the middle, and Mei Jingjing was in the back. The three of them walked slowly outside the cave.
As soon as Feiyun arrived outside the cave, he was surprised to find that Mrs. Wang had not prepared any magic cases or spiritual tablets, but was directing everyone to ambush on a nearby hillside.
Feiyun walked over in surprise and asked, "Senior, what happened?"
After Mrs. Wang finished explaining Wang Hai for a while, she said: "Young Master Lin, I just received news from halfway up the mountain. A group of people are rushing here. This group of people is menacing and very powerful. I want to evacuate here immediately. Of course, you must come with us!"
Feiyun immediately thought that Wu Yuan might have come with officers and soldiers. Of course, he could not continue to follow Mrs. Wang, but he could not say this clearly. After all, it was not certain whether the person who came was Wu Yuan.
In order to ensure that nothing goes wrong, Feiyun must make the final decision after seeing Wu Yuan. Besides, in this case, Mrs. Wang did not control Wu Zetian as a bargaining chip, but clearly informed the dangerous situation without reservation, which naturally gave her confidence.
Feiyun hesitated for a moment and said: "Since the enemy is here and the opponent is very powerful, it is too late to leave now! The opponent must have controlled all the mountain roads. If we act blindly, we may fall into their trap. What a good trap! Why not rely on the terrain and hold on here!"
After hearing this, Mrs. Wang couldn't help but be stunned. She felt that Feiyun was right. Now the other party may indeed control all the mountain roads. Mrs. Wang thought for a moment and said, "In that case, let Cao'er and the others stay in the cave with this slut. How about you and Miss Meijing come with me and guard the entrance of the cave?"
Feiyun was very hesitant. In this way, Wu Zetian became Mrs. Wang's hostage again. But if she doesn't agree, Mrs. Wang will definitely fall out immediately. Who knows what she has up her sleeve. If she didn't have any confidence, how could she openly make such a request without fear of rejection.
Feiyun was helpless. In order to ensure Wu Zetian's safety, he could not take risks. After all, he believed that Mrs. Wang would not harm Wu Zetian's request unless it was absolutely necessary.
Feiyun nodded towards Mrs. Wang, indicating that he agreed to Mrs. Wang's request. Mrs. Wang waved to Cao'er beside her, and Cao'er walked up to Wu Zetian.
Without saying a word, Cao'er reached out and took Wu Zetian's arm, and forcibly led Wu Zetian into the cave. Wu Zetian was completely controlled by Cao'er before she could react. The four strong men behind him also hurriedly followed and entered the cave.
Although Meili was standing next to Wu Zetian, she saw that Feiyun had agreed to Mrs. Wang, so naturally she couldn't stop Cao'er and could only watch Wu Zetian being led into the cave by Cao'er.
At this moment, a group of people rushed from the mountain road and soon reached the open space outside the cave entrance. Then the sounds of shouting and fighting came from the hillsides on both sides of the cave entrance. I could see the grass and tree branches swaying, but it didn't take long for the hillside to calm down.
When Mrs. Wang saw this, her expression changed drastically. It was obvious that all the people she had ambushed just now had been killed. Otherwise, if these people win, they will definitely send a signal to themselves. But Mrs. Wang looked at the hillside, but there was no movement at all.
Wang Hai also knew that there was an accident on the hillside, but he couldn't care about it at the moment. The group of people standing in front of him were the first people to deal with.
Wang Hai saw that this group of people were all dressed in gray clothes. They were all tall, mighty and strong. There were about ten people in this group. When they arrived at the open space, they just took their respective positions without saying a word. They all held steel knives in their hands and stared closely at Wang Hai and others.
Wang Hai was about to speak when he saw three people slowly walking out from behind the group of gray-clothed people. Feiyun took a look and saw that the person among them was Wu Yuan.
When Wang Hai saw it, he was shocked and quickly told Mrs. Wang softly. Mrs. Wang's expression changed drastically at first, and then quickly returned to normal. She didn't speak, but nodded slightly to show that she already understood.
It turned out that after Wu Yuan and Fei Yun broke up that day, he took his guards to protect Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Changzong and walked for dozens of miles, but no clues were found.
Wu Yuan felt something was wrong and quickly asked everyone to stop. He called Shangguan Wan'er and Zhang Changzong to discuss what to do next.
Zhang Changzong was just a pet of Wu Zetian, and serving Wu Zetian was his specialty. Naturally, he had no idea about such a thing. Wu Yuan called him here to give him face. After all, he was a popular person around Wu Zetian. Although Wu Yuan looked down on him, he did not dare to offend him easily.
Shangguan Wan'er thought about it carefully. After all, she was a very smart and talented woman. After a while, she came up with an idea. She told Wu Yuan that she would return to Guojia Town immediately. After arriving at Guojia Town, they sent people to inquire about the surrounding situation while waiting for news about Lin Feiyun and the others.
If Lin Feiyun and the others return within a day or two, it means they have gained nothing. But if they don't return within two days, they've found the clue.
Wu Yuan should immediately set off south to find Lin Feiyun and join the three of them. After understanding the situation, we can discuss countermeasures together.
Wu Yuan didn't have any good ideas. He felt that Shangguan Wan'er's words made sense, so he agreed to Shangguan Wan'er's suggestion.
Wu Yuan lost Wu Zetian this time and was hit hard, and his confidence in himself was shaken. Wu Yuan thought about the recent encounters with masters, which he simply could not cope with with his martial arts.
Wu Yuan immediately decided to fly a pigeon to send a message and ask for help from his master in the capital. Wu Yuan's master Wu Wei was also a member of the Wu clan. In terms of seniority, he was Wu Yuan's cousin and Wu Zetian's cousin.
Wu Wei studied martial arts with his master since he was a child, and his martial arts skills are unfathomable. After Wu Zetian came to power, he has been responsible for protecting Wu Zetian. It's just that he has been protecting Wu Zetian in the palace for a long time and has rarely traveled in the world, so few people in the world know about him.
After Wu Yuan and his party returned to Guojia Town, they inquired about the surrounding situation. Two days later, Wu Yuan, Shangguan Wan'er, and Zhang Changzong sat together again to analyze and discuss.
Shangguan Wan'er believed that based on her judgment, since Wang Hai and his group did not go west, they must have gone to the Qingfeng Mountain area. At the same time, Lin Feiyun went for two days and did not return to Guojia Town. Naturally, he found clues and never returned. Shangguan Wan'er suggested to Wu Yuan to go to Qingfeng Mountain immediately.
Wu Yuan agreed with Shangguan Wan'er's analysis, but he told Shangguan Wan'er that he could not go to Qingfeng Mountain for the time being.
Shangguan Wan'er asked in astonishment: "Captain Wu, saving people is like putting out fires. How can you delay it like this? If something unexpected happens to the Emperor, you cannot bear this responsibility!"
Wu Yuan quickly explained: "Miss Shangguan, I am more anxious than you. But we can't go right now. I want to wait for Master to arrive before we go to Qingfeng Mountain together!"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wan'er immediately understood what Wu Yuan meant. Shangguan Wan'er is naturally very familiar with Wu Yuan's master Wu Wei and knows that he has great martial arts skills.
Since Wu Yuan has to wait for Wu Wei to come, it can be seen that Wu Yuan is afraid that his martial arts is too low and he will not be a match for the enemy. Wu Yuan believed that even after arriving at Qingfeng Mountain and knowing the exact information about Wu Zetian, with his current martial arts skills and the few remaining guards, he would not be able to save Wu Zetian at all.
