Wu Zetian smiled slightly, asked Feiyun and the others to sit down, and said, "It's nothing serious. I just heard that you are back and wanted to know how Miss Meimei is doing. I have been praying to the Buddha to keep her safe and sound."
Feiyun quickly thanked Wu Zetian and told her that Mei Ming had recovered and asked her not to worry. Wu Zetian was overjoyed, stretched out her hand to touch her chest, clasped her palms together, and recited "Amitabha" to express her gratitude to the Buddha.
Feiyun looked at Wu Wei and said, "Master Wu, you have worked hard these past two days. Now that we are back, can we set off tomorrow?"
Wu Wei hesitated for a moment and said: "Young Master Lin, now we are in trouble and we don't know how to deal with it. I invite you two here because I want to hear your opinions."
Feiyun saw Wu Wei's face was heavy and Wu Zetian was also serious, thinking that the trouble seemed to be quite big. Feiyun quickly asked Wu Wei to explain in detail, and he would definitely try his best to help.
Wu Wei told Feiyun and Liangchen that they had lost contact with the capital. He relies on carrier pigeons to keep in touch with the capital. He receives two carrier pigeons every day and releases two carrier pigeons at the same time to inform the news.
But Wuwei has not received any news for three days, nor has it received a homing pigeon. Wu Wei estimated that as Wu Zetian guessed, someone was causing trouble in the middle, cutting off the connection between Wu Wei and others and the capital.
Wu Wei was not sure whether reinforcements had been sent out from the capital. The last letter he received only said that reinforcements would be leaving the capital soon, but did not have a specific time or place to receive them.
Without the support of reinforcements, Wuwei naturally lacked confidence. Wu Wei had no idea and came to Wu Zetian for advice. After listening to Wu Wei's report, Wu Zetian asked Shangguan Wan'er to invite Feiyun and Liangchen.
Feiyun didn't have any good ideas at the moment, so he had to look at Liangchen. Liang thought for a while before expressing her opinion. Liangchen thinks that staying here is definitely not possible, and now foreign enemies and internal ghosts have begun to take action. If Mrs. Li does not get to the capital in time, I am afraid that the capital will soon be controlled by the enemy.
Liangchen suggested setting off early tomorrow morning and dividing the troops into two groups. Feiyun led Liangchen and beautiful scenery to explore the way ahead, while Wuwei led others to protect Wu Zetian and followed behind.
In this way, you can take care of everyone before and after you, so that you won't be caught in one fell swoop by the other party. If Feiyun and others find traces of the enemy, they will prepare the people behind them.
Liangchen believes that his current strength is enough to deal with the enemy. After all, what the other party did was to punish the nine tribes for the unforgivable crime. They did not dare to recruit too many people, only dozens of people at most. Liangchen was confident of defeating the opponent, so Wu Zetian didn't have to worry.
Wu Zetian was moved by Liangchen's optimistic mood, and her confidence increased greatly out of her trust and respect for Liangchen. Wu Zetian asked Wu Wei to obey Liangchen's arrangements and not to disobey.
Liangchen thanked Wu Zetian and told Wu Zetian, Feiyun and Wu Wei of his plan in detail. After hearing this, the three of them all applauded in unison. Afterwards, Feiyun and the other two people left and went to prepare.
Early the next morning, Feiyun set off early with a good time and beautiful scenery. Tianxiang wanted to go with him, but Feiyun gave her the task of protecting Wu Zetian. Tianxiang had no choice but to agree. Others also wanted to follow Feiyun, but they were all declined by Feiyun.
Not long after Feiyun and the others left, Wu Wei also led everyone forward slowly. Lu Ying and Zheng Yu led the way, followed by three identical carriages.
Flying clouds, good weather, and beautiful scenery urged the horse to move quickly, and soon we arrived at the foot of Matou Mountain. Feiyun used his energy to listen carefully and vaguely heard the sound of someone speaking. Feiyun quickly made a mark on the side of the road to remind those behind him not to move forward for the time being until he returned.
The three of them immediately walked over on tiptoe, came to a big tree, and jumped up. After the three of them stood firm, they gently opened the leaves and looked down, only to find that it was Mrs. Wang and Wang Hai.
Opposite the Wang family's ancestors and grandsons were Xu Zhitang, Xing'er and Luo Sitang. Feiyun thought to himself that the two groups actually met here, so naturally he felt very strange. He hurriedly used his skills to listen carefully to what they said.
According to Feiyun's estimation, with two against three, the Wang family's ancestors and grandchildren would not be at a disadvantage. Although Xu Zhitang's martial arts skills are high, the most he can do is fight with Xing'er against Mrs. Wang. Luo Sitang's martial arts skills are average and he can probably tie with Wang Hai.
At this moment, Feiyun heard Wang Hai say: "The two young heroes and heroines of the Yandang sect, I'm disrespectful! I wonder why you blocked our way?"
Feiyun thought to himself that they had just met, and the heroine he mentioned must be Myolie.
Xu Zhitang said: "Actually, it's not a big deal. We know that Wu Zetian is your enemy and our enemy, and we want to ask you to deal with this evil woman together."
Wang Hai said coldly: "What if we don't agree to you?"
Xu Zhitang seemed to have heard nothing and said with a smile: "You have no reason to disagree! Otherwise, you are just hating and surrendering to the evil woman!"
Wang Hai snorted coldly and said: "We will avenge ourselves. We are not interested in cooperating with you. You should get out of the way and stop blocking us."
Xing'er giggled several times and said: "Aunt Huang had long expected that you would refuse the invitation. We know that Lin Feiyun has bullied you before, and this person is also our enemy. He relies on the power of the imperial eagle dog to bully the Jianghu. Comrade. You alone cannot fight against him. But if we join forces, it will be a big difference, enough to compete with him."
Wang Hai sneered and said: "We will handle the dispute between us and Lin Feiyun on our own without the need for others to interfere."
Luo Sitang smiled and said: "You have kidnapped evil women and have become the court's mortal enemies. You have no reason to reject us."
When Wang Hai heard this, he couldn't hold back his temper anymore and shouted sternly: "It's a dream to ask us to be your slaves! Get out of my way!"
As soon as Wang Hai finished speaking, he jumped up and struck Xing'er with a wave of his right palm. Now that things have come to this, Xing'er can't do anything if she doesn't want to. She raised her palms to meet him, and only heard a snap. They were both shaken and flipped backwards twice before landing.
Both of them were shocked. They didn't expect that the other party's skills were so profound. Xing'er had a bad temper, so she immediately pulled out her sword and slashed at Wang Hai.
Wang Hai snorted coldly, but did not dare to neglect, and drew out the sword from his waist to greet him. The two of them went back and forth and became entangled in each other. The fight lasted for a long time, but it was hard to tell the winner.
Feiyun and the three people on the tree were greatly surprised. They had only been separated from Xing'er for more than ten days, but they found that Xing'er's skill had greatly increased. According to Feiyun's estimation, Xing'er should not be Wang Hai's opponent, but he didn't expect that the two were actually tied at this moment.
Liangchen said softly: "Brother, this Xing'er has had an unexpected encounter, and her martial arts has improved greatly. It seems that the Wang family's ancestors and grandsons are no match today, and I'm afraid there will be danger."
Feiyun nodded and said, "It doesn't matter, I'll go down and help them later."
Liangchen thought for a moment and said, "I definitely want to help, but I have to do it at the right time."
At this time, Xing'er and Wang Hai had already fought dozens of moves. The two of them were surrounded by sword light and whip shadow, but there was still no difference between them. Seeing that Xing'er couldn't fight for a long time, Xu Zhitang also shouted and flew over to help her.
When Mrs. Wang saw this, she immediately stepped forward to stop her. The two of them struck each other with their palms, and each took a few steps back before standing still. Mrs. Wang was shocked that the other party's skill was equal to her own. Mrs. Wang thought that she might be in trouble this time. It seemed that the martial arts skills of these three people were not weaker than hers. But after all, the other party has one more person, so they undoubtedly have a huge advantage.
Mrs. Wang thought that she could only fight to the death and win the battle quickly, and maybe there would be a chance. She made up her mind and immediately swung her cane and struck Xu Zhitang directly. Xu Zhitang dodged to avoid it, and at the same time drew his sword and struck fiercely. Mrs. Wang waved her cane to get away, and swung her left palm towards Xu Zhitang, and the two started fighting fiercely. In the blink of an eye, the two had exchanged more than ten moves, but they were evenly matched, with no one gaining the upper hand.
Luo Sitang watched for a while and then shouted: "Mrs. Wang, Master Wang, you are no match for the three of us. Why don't you stop and follow us to see Aunt Huang and Senior Pei, so as not to hurt the harmony."
Mrs. Wang said while fighting: "You want us to surrender, that's a daydream!"
Luo Sitang sneered, immediately pulled out his sword, and said, "If that's the case, then you can't blame me!" After saying that, he jumped up, swung his sword, and slashed at Mrs. Wang.
Luo Sidang swung his sword and was about to cut it down when he saw a figure flying down from the tree, blocking his way and knocking away Luo Sidang's sword.
Luo Sitang was shocked to the ground and took several steps back before he could stand firm. Luo Sidang was horrified. He quickly raised his head and took a closer look, and saw Feiyun standing in front of him. Judging from the rebound force generated by the collision of weapons just now, Luo Sitang knew that Feiyun's skill was slightly better than his own.
Luo Sitang yelled angrily: "Who are you? How dare you interfere with my affairs. If you know what's going on, get out of here!" The person who came was naturally Liu Shui. When he saw that Li Xianglan didn't recognize him, he said in a low voice: "I'm just an unknown person who came to see the scenery of Purple Mountain. I didn't expect to encounter you fighting. You want to bully the few, but I didn't want to You are nosy. But what you did violated the rules of the world, so I can only force myself to stand out!"
Luo Sitang shouted: "It turns out it's you. I'm trying to settle a score with you. Look at the sword!" As soon as he finished speaking, he swung his sword and struck straight at him. Feiyun snorted coldly and waved his sword to block the attack. At the same time, he also shot out with his left palm.
Fortunately, Luo Sitang's sword was also a precious sword and was not cut off by Feiyun's folding fan. But Feiyun used his full strength this time, so Luo Sitang's arm was slightly aching from the shock.
Luo Sitang was stunned and felt a gust of palm wind coming towards him. He didn't have time to think about it and raised his palms to greet her. Hearing a snap, Luo Sitang was so shocked that he took five or six steps back before he stood firm. He couldn't help but be shocked. With Feiyun helping the Wang family, the three of them couldn't take advantage.
Luo Sitang then let out a scream, turned around and ran away. When Xu Zhitang and Xing'er heard Luo Sidang's screams, they did not hesitate to fight. They attacked with a few fierce moves, forcing Mrs. Wang and Wang Hai to retreat, and then turned around and ran down the mountain.
