Chapter 172: King Chao
When Commander Liu heard this, a look of surprise flashed across his face, and he immediately looked at the soldiers in front of him and asked, "When is it?"
"Just now, this man has Taoist skills and can fly with a sword. At first, he wanted to fly directly from Huangyou Trench. Later, he was stopped by our stationed sergeant. Now he has left Huangyou Trench!" Soldier
He replied loudly.
Commander Liu raised his eyebrows and said immediately: "I understand, get down!"
"Yes!" The messenger soldier slowly exited the manor.
"He knows Taoism, and his behavior is a bit sneaky. It seems that he might be that kid. I didn't expect that he really escaped. It's a pity that we can't do it in Huangyou Que. Otherwise, I will let Shang Qingzong know about it. I won't do it here.
What an easy explanation!" Watching the messenger soldiers leave, Commander Liu stood alone in the room and murmured to himself.
In fact, Xiao Ze didn't know that Yang Yi's death and some related secret information had been transmitted to Huangyou Que two days ago and fell into the hands of the garrison commander here. On that day, Commander Liu ordered the border inspection troops.
Pay attention to investigating suspicious persons and report them immediately, because according to speculation, if Xiao Ze does not fall into the hands of others, he will definitely flee to the Chu family of the Zixiao Dynasty, and to get to the Chu family, he must pass through Huangyou Que.
Therefore, Commander Liu has been waiting for the past two days. He did not expect that he would meet a very suspicious person today, and the officer who released Xiao Ze from Huangyou Que did it on purpose. He had already obtained the garrison.
The commander ordered that if you find a suspicious person, do not alert the other party and report it to him immediately.
Originally, Commander Liu did not expect that Xiao Ze really escaped as everyone expected. Now that Xiao Ze really appeared, his mind suddenly became more active. When he came to the desk, Commander Liu received a pen and paper and quickly wrote a letter.
, then called the messenger outside the door, handed it to him, and said: "Send this letter to Tainan Mountain and give it to King Chao Tian of Tainan Mountain. Go now. Remember, be quick!"
"Yes!" The messenger took the letter and quickly left the manor, heading towards Tainan Mountain.
Tainan Mountain is about three hundred miles away from Huangyou Que. Anyone who enters the Zixiao Dynasty from Huangyou Que will pass through here. Originally, the border areas of a country would be relatively chaotic. However, the security of Tainan Mountain is not as expected.
It's so bad, mainly because this is the border fortress of the Zixiao Dynasty, and the Zixiao Dynasty still has relatively strict supervision here.
However, even so, there are still many large and small forces entrenched in Tainan Mountain. Although these forces are not as good as some authentic sects, they still have many masters. Among them, Chao Tianwang is very famous in this area.
famous.
No one knows the real name of King Chao Tianwang. They only know that his surname is Chao. Because he was very famous in the Tainan Mountains, people gave him the title of King of Heaven. His cultivation was so high that he was the same as the one stationed at Huangyou Que.
He knew many of his senior generals, and those senior generals were happy to make friends with him.
Over time, they have become familiar with each other. Some senior generals in Huangyouqian often ask Chao Tianwang to help them do things that are difficult for them to do in their own capacity, and Chao Tianwang is also happy to sell each other these favors.
, after all, he lives in Tainan Mountain near Huangyou Que, and usually relies on these officers for many things.
There is a relatively large city at the foot of Tainan Mountain, called Nanshan City. It is the only large city within hundreds of miles, and the famous King Chao Tian lives in this city.
Above the sky, a crested eagle suddenly flew over and entered Nanshan City directly from the sky. The guards at the city gate along the way looked at the crested eagle and did not stop it, and actually allowed it to fly into the city.
.
Generally speaking, anyone who wants to enter Nanshan City, if they have a mount or a cultivator with an immortal treasure, needs to land outside the city gate and walk into the city from the city gate. This is a border fortress, unlike other cities, Zixiao
The dynasty established such rules to show the majesty of the dynasty.
However, the crested eagle flew directly from the sky and was not blocked by the garrison garrison. This was because this crested eagle had a sign of Huang Youqian Baili Expedited hanging on it. The Zixiao Dynasty wanted to establish
Majesty only applies to ordinary people or outside cultivators, and naturally cannot be generalized to one's own army.
The crested eagle is currently sitting astride a messenger in military uniform. This messenger was sent by the garrison commander of Huangyou Que to deliver a message to King Chao Tian. Considering that Xiao Ze can fly with a sword, his speed is faster than
The average cultivator walked quickly and was worried that Xiao Ze would have already flown over Mount Tainan before the letter was handed over to King Chao Tian. Therefore, Commander Liu ordered the messenger to come directly on the crested eagle, hoping to arrive before Xiao Ze.
Before Tainan Mountain, he handed the letter into the hands of King Chao Tian.
The crested eagle is a commonly used means of transportation throughout the continent. In the world of cultivation, there are still very few cultivators who can own mounts, and among these mounts, there are even fewer birds, so people want to travel more conveniently.
, so this kind of crested vulture was domesticated.
It is said that the crested eagle is the descendant of the ancient mythical beast Phoenix and the golden-winged roc. However, with the reproduction of generations, the phoenix blood in the body of the crested eagle has gradually weakened, so that the phoenix blood in the body now is almost
Nearly gone and reduced to an ordinary raptor, the crested vulture is no longer a monster, but it has some relationship with the ancient beast after all, so the crested vulture has a very fast flying speed, even more powerful than some
The flying monster is even faster.
Crested eagles are large in size, possess extreme speed, and can carry heavy loads. Therefore, they are favored and domesticated by people in the cultivation world. Some slightly powerful forces or families, especially in the army, raise some for transportation.
Or for sending messages.
The messenger flew directly into Nanshan City with a crested eagle, then landed in front of a small courtyard, and then quickly came to the door and knocked on it.
The door opened, and a man in his twenties or thirties walked out. The man had shrewd eyes and a very smooth manner. When he saw that the person knocking on the door was an officer in military uniform, he immediately nodded and bowed with a smile: "It turned out to be a military master. I don't know.
What's the matter, Master Jun?"
Glancing at the man who opened the door, the messenger said, "I wonder if King Chao Tian is at home? I am sending a secret letter to King Chao on the orders of the commander of the garrison at Youqian."
Hearing that it was the commander of the garrison at Huangyou Gou who sent the secret message, the man who opened the door immediately looked serious. He also knew that his master had close contacts with many officers in Huangyou Gou, so naturally he could not be indifferent and said: "My master is in the courtyard.
Please come with me!"
Under the leadership of the man, the messenger came to the courtyard and saw a middle-aged man in his fifties sitting in the courtyard. This man was tall and looked extremely burly. Judging from the overall outline of his body, he was indeed worthy of the title.
"Heavenly King" Er'an, but his two small beards and shining eyes are extremely inconsistent with the word "Heavenly King".
"Master, this is the messenger from Huang Youqian!" The man brought the messenger to King Chao Tian and said.
A trace of doubt flashed in King Chao Tian's eyes, and he turned to look at the messenger. At this time, the messenger also came closer and presented the sealed letter in his hand to King Chao Tian, saying: "I have been ordered by Commander Liu to deliver it to King Chao Tian.
Come hurry!"
"Oh?" Chao Tianwang was surprised when he heard the word "urgent". He quickly took the letter from the courier, and then quickly opened it. Looking at the content on the letter, Chao Tianwang frowned deeper and deeper.
Then he closed the letter, looked at the messenger and said, "Has Commander Liu said anything?"
"Commander Liu asked me to send a message to the King of Heaven, saying that if we take action, we must do it as soon as possible, otherwise we will have no chance!" the messenger replied.
When King Chao Tian heard this, he suddenly felt a little anxious. He couldn't make a decision for a moment. The letter sent to him by Commander Liu told him that Xiao Ze had passed the Huangyou Cut and was about to arrive at Tainan Mountain. Let him
Xiao Ze was captured in Tainan Mountain in order to find out the whereabouts of the ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword. The ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword was lost in the hands of the son of Xiao Tianying and his wife. This matter caused a stir in the cultivation world, and various speculations were flying around. He
King Chao Tianwang has naturally heard of some.
According to people in the cultivation world, the ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword is probably in Xiao Ze's hands. If you capture Xiao Ze, you might be able to get the Ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword. With the strength of Chao Tianwang, it is not difficult to capture Xiao Ze.
But his heart was full of worries at the moment. The first one was the Shang Qingzong of the Arctic. If he captured Xiao Ze, the Shang Qingzong of the Arctic would not let him go so easily.
Naturally, the Qingzong in the North Pole did not protect Xiao Ze, they also did it for the ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword. In the eyes of outsiders, Xiao Ze fell into his hands, which is equivalent to the ancient Heavenly Punishment Sword falling into his hands.
When the time comes, not only the Shangqing Sect of the North Pole, but also the masters in the entire cultivation world will hunt him down until there is no way to go to heaven and no way to enter the earth.
However, Commander Liu also guessed King Chao Tianwang's concerns, so he also specifically advised him in his secret letter, saying that Xiao Ze's traces at this moment have not been discovered by others, and as long as he takes down Xiao Ze quietly, there will be no traces of Xiao Ze.
Others know, and when the time comes, they can blame Xiao Ze's disappearance on Yang Yi's murderer.
It has to be said that the plan mentioned by Commander Liu is indeed flawless. According to Commander Liu's intention, as long as King Chao Tianwang seizes Xiao Ze quietly, and then kills and silences him afterwards, it will be treated as if Xiao Ze did not appear in Huangyou Que and Tainan Mountain.
, the world only thought that Xiao Ze was kidnapped by the murderer of Yang Yi, and would not suspect them at all.
King Chao Tian was hesitant in his heart. Although the plan seemed perfect, he still had a lot of worries in his heart, but time did not allow him to think too much. According to the time, Xiao Ze was about to arrive at Nanshan City. If he didn't
