The next morning, when the sky was bright, a sergeant rushed in in a panic, handed a letter to General Song, and said hurriedly: "Mr. Xu disappeared, leaving only this letter in the house."
General Song frowned, opened the letter and asked, "Have you looked for it?"
"We searched inside and outside the guest house, but nothing was left except two talismans and bamboo cards." The sergeant replied, "His follower Tao Er also left."
General Song carefully read the letter, and after a while he sighed and said: "He is indeed a master of the immortal family. He gave medicine to save people without expecting anything in return. He left as soon as he said he wanted to, leaving behind a prescription for treating dysentery."
The sergeant asked: "Should we send troops to chase him?"
"Chasing? Where to pursue?" General Song laughed and said: "I asked you to keep a watch on me secretly, but you didn't notice anything. They easily escaped from the fortress with several layers of sentries.
These experts from the Immortal Family are either flying into the sky or flying in the clouds, leaving no trace behind. Even if we invite the experts from Captain Sili who are proficient in tracking and hunting, we can't even hope to find them!"
General Song tapped his head lightly and took out the prescription alone: "Take it to the military doctors and let them sort the medicinal materials according to the prescription. Alas, I originally wanted to ask Master Xu to check the water source, but it seems that it is still a matter of
We have to wait for the people from Jingzong to come."
While we were still deep in thought here, another sergeant came hurriedly from outside: "General! There are some big birds from the northwest flying towards Xin'an Tun!"
"Big Bird? Could it be that the people in the village have attracted monsters?" General Song immediately ordered: "Blow the trumpet immediately and put all the bows and crossbows on the city wall! I want armor!"
As soon as he finished speaking, before General Song was fully clothed, a sharp cry came from the distance.
"Wait a minute, I've heard this sound." General Song came outside the house and saw three large birds with wide wingspan from a distance, which reflected a silvery white color in the sun. There were several vague human figures on the backs of the birds, which was very impressive.
Incredible.
The big bird flew over Xin'an Village, causing screams from the people below. The bird's wings were carried by the strong wind, and some clothes to be dried were also swept into the air.
When the big bird flew over the city fortress, all the soldiers saw clearly that it was a big bird with three heads made of steel, with a wingspan of seven or eight feet, and its feathers were as long and sharp as willow leaves.
, the cold light is approaching. In addition, the tail feathers are gorgeous and slender, the overall appearance is like the legendary phoenix, and a pair of gem-encrusted eyes exude bright red light.
One of the big birds slowly landed,
The surrounding wind was raging wildly, flags were swaying, sand and rocks were flying, and the generals had to hide their faces to avoid it.
After the storm calmed down, a tall man slid down the bird's wings, cupped his hands and said, "General Song, you came here unannounced this time. It's presumptuous!"
General Song dusted himself off, took off his armor that he had not yet put on, looked at the tall man and said, "Pavilion Master Deng, I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought it was some vicious evil that was coming to attack Xin'an Tun."
Deng Feibao, dressed in a thick fleece jacket, said with a smile: "It's my fault for frightening everyone."
General Song stared at the phoenix in front of him that looked like steel, and then looked at the other two hovering in the sky, and asked: "Your Qianji Pavilion has become more and more powerful in recent years. I used to think that the wooden kites you made were not very useful.
, I never thought that even this kind of iron kite could be made now. It can also carry people into the sky, which is not much worse than the immortal master flying in the clouds and mist."
Deng Feibao smiled heartily and said: "Although I don't like to boast, to be praised by General Song is worthy of my hard work in the past."
General Song smiled indifferently, waved his hand to signal the other sergeants to leave, and then asked: "Pavilion Master Deng personally paid a visit, what are you doing for me?"
"To be honest, I just took over as the master of the pavilion. After checking the treasury, I found that several important items were missing from the pavilion." Deng Feibao said in a low voice.
"Oh?" General Song's face changed slightly, and he led Deng Feibao into the house to talk secretly: "Since this happened, Pavilion Master Deng should directly write a memorial to the court."
Deng Feibao waved his hand and said: "I was worried that the letter would arouse the vigilance of thieves, so I used a little trick to capture some of the treasure thieves. After interrogation, I learned that they were spies from the Yaochi Kingdom!"
When General Song heard this, he did not panic, but his expression was slightly condensed: "Is this true? If it involves enemy spies, there is no room for negligence, and Pavilion Master Deng should not deal with it alone."
"I understand, that's why I came to see General Song." Deng Feibao said: "We learned that there is another person on the run. He has stolen the key things of my Qianji Pavilion, and we must take it back as soon as possible!"
General Song was suspicious, but he pretended to be concerned: "It should be so. I wonder if I can help Pavilion Master Deng?"
"It's not difficult to imagine." Deng Feibao said: "We used secret techniques to search and found the general location of the person who stole the treasure, which is in the Xin'an Tun area."
General Song looked unhappy and asked, "Does Pavilion Master Deng think that this general is protecting the suspected treasure thief?"
"Don't dare." Deng Feibao cupped his fists and handed over his hands: "I just hope that General Song will temporarily restrain the soldiers and civilians here so that I can use my secret technique to find out the whereabouts of the person who stole the treasure. Once this person is caught, Qianji Pavilion will definitely reward him.
Offer it up!"
General Song was dubious. He knew very little about Deng Feibao. Most of the repeating crossbows used by the officers and soldiers came from Qianji Pavilion, but they did not have close contact with each other.
"There is no need for reward. I just hope that after Pavilion Master Deng finds the person, he can let me take a look at him so that he can give an explanation." General Song said.
"This is natural!" Deng Feibao smiled and nodded.
General Song didn't waste any time and immediately ordered people to guard the entrances of Xin'an Tun and not allow anyone to leave.
After receiving the permission signal, Deng Feibao took out an orb from his arms. It was not made of crystal clear material, but seemed to be made of polished pebbles. There were subtle and difficult-to-detect lines on the surface. As Deng Feibao silently activated it, it emitted bursts of mysterious light, as if
It rapidly expanded outward like a wave, sweeping across several miles in a blink of an eye.
"Huh?" After a moment, Deng Feibao frowned, removed the secret technique, turned around and asked:
"General Song, did anyone leave Xin'antun last night?"
"I don't understand what Pavilion Master Deng means. Xin'an Tun has a curfew at night, and tokens are required to enter and exit the city gates. Except for ordinary scouts and cavalry, no one will leave at night." General Song asked: "Isn't it possible that the person you are looking for is not in Xin'an Tun?"
?”
Pavilion Master Deng's expression changed slightly, but returned to normal in a blink of an eye. He smiled and said, "It seems that I made a mistake in my judgment and made General Song laugh."
"It doesn't have to be like this." General Song said: "A major event such as the theft of Qianji Pavilion should be reported to the imperial court. Now that the person who stole the treasure has escaped, there is no need for Pavilion Master Deng to search privately. After the imperial court hears the news, it will inevitably spread the search documents.
Those who steal the treasure will have nowhere to escape. Moreover, if the enemy’s spies want to escape, the border guards will be ready to stop them at any time.”
"Yes, I was negligent. Thank you, General Song, for your guidance." Deng Feibao bowed his hands in thanks.
"But I still don't understand something." General Song asked, stroking his moustache: "Our Xin'an Village is located in the southeast of Dunjia Mountain. If it is really a spy from the Yaochi Kingdom, it seems that he shouldn't escape to us, right? There is still water between the two places.
There was a flash flood just a few days ago, and most of the official roads were submerged. How did the spies come to Xin'an Village?"
Deng Feibao raised his eyebrows and said: "The person who stole the treasure may be trying to confuse us... Well, I still have to hunt down the person who stole the treasure, so I won't have an in-depth discussion with General Song."
"Pavilion Master Deng, go slowly." General Song said goodbye with his hands crossed, watching Deng Feibao eagerly climb onto the back of the kite, fluttering its wings and flying high, with a thoughtful expression on his face.
"General, what should we do next?" A sergeant stepped forward and asked.
"It's gone, let's go do what you have to do." General Song returned to the house and was about to write a memorial when another sergeant came to report:
"General, the immortal master of Shangjing Sect is here! Waiting outside the camp!"
"Oh! I'll go and greet you personally!" General Song thought to himself that he really wouldn't have a moment of leisure today. After tidying up his clothes a little, he led his elite sergeants and hurried outside the camp.
Outside the camp gate, I saw more than 20 monks, all wearing apricot yellow robes and black belts around their waists. The leader had a long beard reaching to his chest and was holding a wooden staff. He looked like a kind-hearted elder. He was looking up into the distance.
The sky, that is the direction Deng Feibao left.
"Disciple Song Ce, pay homage to the immortal masters of Shangjing Sect." General Song bowed down quickly.
The long-bearded elder turned around, raised his palms, and helped General Song up from the air: "We, who live in the mountains and wilds, don't have to be so polite, general."
General Song said in a sincere tone: "The immortal masters of the Shangjing Sect have protected the Xiong Kingdom for hundreds of years, and all the people have received great grace. My disciple was seriously ill when he was young, and he was fortunate enough to receive medicine and amulets from Xia Huanggong. He still dares not forget it."
Xia Huanggong Fu Xu said: "I was a child in the past, and now I have become a pillar. It is a blessing to the country and it is also due to your hard work."
"Young general, Mr. Xia Huang is worried." General Song was still polite to Deng Feibao, but now he was very pious when he saw Mr. Xia Huang, fearing to show any disrespect.
This is not out of fear, but out of heart. Shangjingzong has protected Xiongguo for many years, and countless people have benefited from it. One of the Four Immortal Dukes, Xiahuang Gong, is also a well-known kind-hearted elder. He provides relief on weekdays.
There were many actions. Even Xin'an Village, which was used to provide relief to the people, was established by Xia Huanggong after he learned about the floods.
General Song had admired the monks of Shangjing Sect since he was a child. Unfortunately, he had a weak foundation and had no chance of becoming an immortal. However, when Duke Xia Huang arrived, he still accepted him as a disciple.
"All the immortal masters, please come in. The disciples have prepared a clean and quiet room." General Song led the Jingzong monks inside.
"Has anyone been here just now?" Xia Huang Gongdan said with a smile: "If it is a military secret, there is no need to tell it."
"The disciple is about to ask Duke Xia Huang for advice." General Song said: "This matter is not a secret. Just now, Deng Feibao, the master of Qianji Pavilion, came on an iron kite, claiming to be hunting down a treasure thief."
"A treasure thief?" Xia Huanggong asked: "I remember that Deng Feibao just took office. How could a treasure thief appear at this time?"
"The disciple asked just now. He said that after he took office, he found important things missing when checking the treasury. Later he learned that there were spies from the Yaochi Kingdom in the cabinet." After a brief statement, General Song added: "But the disciple feels that
, what this Pavilion Master Deng said may not be true, it may be due to disputes and conflicts within the Qianji Pavilion, and he used the name of a spy to eradicate dissidents."
Xia Huanggong nodded slightly: "There is some truth in this statement. Qianji Pavilion has an important responsibility and builds important weapons for the country. If there is a spy, he should report it in time. If the spy escapes, he should not pursue him privately."
"In addition... there is one more thing." General Song found the letter he had received earlier: "Yesterday, two people came to Xin'an Village. One of them took action and had to save the disciple and the sick soldiers and civilians. The disciple suspected that he was a cultivator and had special abilities.
Not low. But they had left before this morning, and the sentry sergeants were not aware of it."
Xia Huanggong received the letter, which contained nothing more than some words of apology for leaving without saying goodbye, and the signature was "Xu Huaiyu".
"Xu Huaiyu?" Xia Huanggong stroked his beard.
"Could this person have a different origin?"
"I have heard of this name." Xia Huanggong asked: "How does this person describe his appearance?"
"He has eagle eyebrows and starry eyes, a face like a crown jade, a short beard, a green robe with a staff, and a bamboo basket on his back." General Song said: "He claimed to be a traveling doctor. His disciples noticed that he was unusual, but they did not expose him to his face.
, he may be a member of the Taiyi sect whose whereabouts are elusive."
"No, he is not from the Taiyi sect." Xia Huanggong smiled: "Besides, I also hold a staff, could it be that I have become a Taiyi sect too?"
"Disciple made random guesses and offended the immortal master." General Song apologized quickly.
"It doesn't have to be like this." Xia Huanggong looked at the letter for a moment and then asked: "You just mentioned two people? Besides Xu Huaiyu, who is the other person?"
"The only name on the talisman is Tao Er, and the clothes are in tatters. He is probably his follower." General Song suddenly realized: "Could this Tao Er be the person Deng Feibao wants to hunt down?"
"I think so." Xia Huanggong sighed: "I never thought about Zhao...this Xu Huaiyu actually appeared here. I don't know whether it is a blessing or a curse."
General Song asked: "Is Xu Huaiyu some kind of evil cultivator?"
"At least I don't think so." Xia Huanggong's words made General Song confused.
"You said he cured dysentery for the soldiers and people here? What happened?" Xia Huanggong asked.
General Song recounted what he had seen and heard yesterday in detail. Xia Huanggong nodded and thought, and then tapped the ground lightly with his wooden stick. He did not know what kind of magic he had used. After a while, he said: "The water veins here are indeed unclean. uuRead the book "
"It seems that the disciple was negligent when choosing the location." General Song blamed himself.
"I said, it doesn't have to be like this. Excessive self-blame will not do anything good." Xia Huanggong explained: "Since the drastic changes in Dongsheng City, the earth's energy and energy have been disordered, and the turbid energy has boiled out, and the water veins have naturally been affected. You
If you are eager to resettle the people affected by the disaster, you cannot bother to find a place with clean water veins."
General Song asked: "What should we do now? The well water is unclean and the river water is turbid, so we can only boil water for later use."
"Logically speaking, cooked water is purer than raw water." Xia Huanggong said.
General Song looked troubled: "But with so many people in Xin'an Village, boiling water consumes a lot of firewood every day. Now just collecting firewood seems to be a bit short of manpower."
"I understand that I can handle the matter of purifying the water veins." Xia Huanggong looked at the letter in his hand and said, "This clearly senses our arrival and leaves the matter to us."
