The peaks of the West Mountain are towering, and the cliffs are so high that it is difficult for monkeys to cross. One mountain after another, there are endless views and few people.
In the afternoon of this day, the sun was extremely bright, and a figure floated down in the sky, as if it had descended from the sun.
The figure was wearing a light blue gown, and its falling posture was like a feather, light and elegant, and it made no sound when it landed on the ground.
It was a young man of sixteen or seventeen years old. He was made of gold and jade, just like the person in the painting. He breathed a sigh of relief when he landed on the ground and said: "Finally landed. It is more comfortable and grounded to step on the ground."
He raised his head to confirm the direction of the sun. Just as he was about to leave, the young man suddenly looked surprised and said, "What a coincidence?"
There was a rustle of vegetation all around, and seven or eight people rushed out from both the front and back directions. They were all wearing armor and holding swords, and they were full of murderous intent. They surrounded him in an instant.
The leader at the front was wearing a school captain's uniform, with a solemn look on his face, and shouted: "Who are you? What are you doing here? Don't you know this is a restricted area?"
The young man wondered: "Is this already a restricted area? It shouldn't be? It wasn't before, and it wasn't marked on the map..."
When the captain heard his pure Yunzhou accent, he felt a little relieved, but still shouted: "Since it is a restricted area, how can I let you know? Please explain your identity quickly, otherwise you will be treated as a spy."
The young man said seriously: "Don't be surprised, Colonel. I really don't know that this place is a restricted area. I am Yu Tangzhao, the instructor of the training camp of the District Procuratorate. Is the Colonel a colleague of the Xishan Camp under the Yunzhou Dudu Mansion? I rushed back from outside.
, is about to return to Zhongtian Mansion to pay homage to the Lord."
The captain said in confusion: "Are you from the Land Inspection Department? Do you have proof?"
Tang Zhao took out his official certificate and token and handed them over. They were all genuine and there was nothing to question.
The captain checked it carefully and felt a little more relaxed again, saying: "It is indeed the teachings of the district inspector. Normally, we are all colleagues. If it were normal, you would be allowed to pass. But now is an extraordinary period. Anyone passing by Xishan must have
Check your origins carefully and wait for approval before you can cross the border. I am not qualified to let you pass. You may as well go back to the camp with me to meet the general first, and it will be okay to explain clearly."
Although Tang Zhao was anxious about something, he mainly wanted to report to Marquis Gao Yuan. It was not Marquis Gao Yuan's military order to transfer him back, so it was not official business, so he just obeyed the local military order. He nodded and said: "Okay, please lead me to see the general."
.”
When the captain saw that he was easy to talk to, he felt completely relaxed. The official positions of the District Procuratorate are roughly equivalent to those in the army. The rank corresponds to the strength. This teaching is the sixth rank, which shows that this young-looking and shameless important official of the District Procuratorate is
He is a swordsman.
And in the army, swordsmen have to hold the rank of general. Some generals are just swordsmen. For example, the generals in their camp should actually be considered partial generals, which is the strength of swordsmen. The captain is not a swordsman yet.
, if Tang Zhao doesn't cooperate, let alone take action, he just walks away. There is no swordsman in front of him to help, what can he do? Even if he goes back to call for reinforcements to block him in the west mountain, he will inevitably be guilty of dereliction of duty.
All face is given to each other. Tang Zhao was so cooperative, so he naturally had to be polite and said: "In this case, please come with me."
At this time, the white fox on Tang Zhao's shoulder suddenly said: "Are you really a big official? This official is also very respectful to you. It seems that you have some status. I also think you are bragging."
Tang Zhao smiled and said: "I am originally an official. But I am indeed a junior official."
Yes, Ling Baoyu...'s sword elephant came down with him.
Although Tang Zhao's guess was his own, it was not unfounded. Especially now that the whereabouts of the Ruyi Sword were unknown, everyone had no clue and felt panic. Tang Zhao's statement was a more certain direction. At least it pointed out the way for everyone.
As for a headless fly.
When they thought that His Highness might be trapped in Kongliang Mountain, everyone was naturally excited and wanted to break down Kongliang Mountain immediately and rescue His Highness. But fortunately, they still had sense.
More than a hundred years ago, Wang Liang invaded, and His Highness the Sword Immortal held Wang Liang head-on. They were even defeated in the battle. Although Wang Liang may not be as good as back then, their strength is even worse.
There are only seven or eight people left, and they are still in a state of weakness and have not recovered their strength. Even if everyone is willing to fight, they can't just die, right?
It will take several years to regroup and regain the original strength. If we want to go further and even have another leading swordsman appear, it is not only a matter of time, but also depends on luck. Based on the current situation, it can be said that the hope is very slim.
A hundred years of life wasted, and for the swordsman, half of his life was wasted. Even a promising young talent back then has now become a mediocre person.
Could it be that we can only sit back and watch His Highness being helpless and unable to do anything?
At this time, Tang Zhao reminded them that they could consider Bai Ni's dying suggestion to find the whereabouts of Xindong Jun.
When Dongjun was mentioned, everyone had resentment. Although Bai Ni was deceived, she had a share in the destruction of Bai Yujing, and Dongjun also left a bad impression on everyone, so they were somewhat rejected. However, in the end, the rescue
His Highness's matter was serious, and under the persuasion of steady men such as Tan Swordsman, the swordsmen decided to put aside their past grievances and go to Dong Jun for help.
At this time, Tang Zhao proposed that the Golden Crow Sword was in Yunzhou, and it was of great importance. It affected the people of the state and could not bypass the government and Marquis Gao Yuan. Why not ask Bai Yujing to send an envoy to contact Marquis Gao Yuan, which could help solve the current crisis in Yunzhou.
It can also liberate the Golden Crow Sword, and secondly, it can form an alliance with Yunzhou, and it can also use the power of the Hou Mansion to attack Gangliang Mountain.
Tang Zhao even suggested that if you really need foreign aid, you can try to contact the imperial court. There is no more powerful force in the world than the imperial court. Although the central government is now divided and the government orders are blocked, the forces of the national division are still there, and there are also special forces to deal with the emperor.
Why not try to join forces with the Tongming Hall in the two mountains?
This proposal was met with opposition.
The first is the doubt about Bai Yujing's identity, because Bai Yujing is actually a frontline force who has returned from the Broken Realm and is temporarily staying in the human world. There are two worlds between the frontline and the human world. The so-called frontline returns to the frontline and the human world returns to the human world. According to the current tacit agreement,
Bai Yujing should not get too involved in the human world.
Then Hao Jianxia added: "What kind of good thing can the current court be? Although Yongyeting is a bastard, the court is not a good bird either. It is a treacherous and evil person who hides evil and evil. How can we go without them? Let's go
If you look for them, wouldn't you be seeking skin from a tiger? Even the Yunzhou government is more glamorous on the outside, so who knows what filth is hidden there?"
Even the steady Tan Jianxia said: "Brother Tang, it's not that we can't trust the imperial court, but there is something fishy about it. I heard that the Tongming Hall has been established for more than a hundred years and has been attacking the two mountains. How come the two mountains are always as stable as Mount Tai?"
What? Are we unable to fight, or do we not want to fight? How could we know that there is no connection? Let’s not get out of the tiger’s den and end up in the wolf’s den again.”
What can Tang Zhao say? It can only be said that Tan Jianxia is indeed the most understanding of people's hearts. He is very perceptive and can hit the nail on the head. When he was a child, he mentioned the Gangliang Mountain to Si Liyu. Si Liyu once said that the Gangliang Mountain was vaguely related to some powerful people.
There is a connection, and there are many sinister thoughts hidden in it, which coincides with Tan Jianxia's views.
In the end, Bai Yujing decided to ignore the court, but he could contact Gao Yuanhou first. Whether it was looking for the Golden Crow Sword or saving civilians, it would be a good thing. As for whether to cooperate further, it depends on the results of mutual testing.
Because the project of reorganizing Bai Yujing cannot be separated from people, and no one has recovered their strength, only Bai Hu, who is most familiar with the human world, is sent to Yunzhou with Tang Zhao. At this time, Tang Zhao has the dual qualities of Bai Yujing and Yunzhou.
His identity can be regarded as the middleman between the two parties. That is to say, his strength has reached a certain level now, otherwise he would not be able to be the middleman.
He followed the captain to the Xishan Camp. As soon as he entered the camp, Tang Zhao noticed something was wrong with the atmosphere. People were coming and going in the camp, and the atmosphere was solemn, a bit like the tension of the front line.
Tang Zhao's heart sank: What big thing happened? Could it be that the annihilation of the turtle bandits was not going well, so that a war was about to break out?
But he was not from the army, and he didn't want to be suspected of spying on military planes. Anyway, he went out of the mountain and contacted the Shanghai Procuratorate Division to figure it out himself, so he ignored it and went straight into the military camp.
After walking two steps, another team came out of the camp. The leader was also a school captain. When he saw Tang Zhao, he was startled and said: "Caught another outsider? Are these all from the same group? Go, the iron prison is over there.
.”
The captain explained: "This is a brother from the Prosecution Department, who wants to see the general."
The captain then suddenly understood. He bowed to Tang Zhao and said, "I'm afraid we have to wait to see the general. The general just left to deal with another outsider."
The captain here asked: "Why are there so many outsiders? Didn't we arrest a woman in white yesterday? There is another one today... Could it be that we have been negligent in the past, and Xishan has been like a sieve for a long time? Let the general handle it personally, is it another swordsman?
"
The captain on the opposite side was startled, looked at Tang Zhao, and realized that this young man was also a swordsman. He was secretly surprised and said: "It is said that he is not, but the person here claims to be a disciple of the Yanyun Sword Sect. You know the virtues of those disciples of the big sect,
He is very proud and refuses to submit to our jurisdiction, but he has some skills, so the general went to deal with it himself."
The captain here laughed and said: "The Yanyun Sword Sect has such a big background. It is the big sect that spans the three states of Yan, Yun and Youzhou? It sounds like it has a big background, but this is Yunzhou, so we are afraid
Did you kill him?"
The captain on the opposite side said: "Why are you afraid of him? At most, I want to save my face and not take his life. I have to capture him and let his master come to pick him up. Don't worry about him. He is not even a swordsman. How can a mere mortal change the world?"
The two chatted for a few words and then left. The captain asked Tang Zhao to go to the barracks to rest.
Tang Zhao asked: "You arrested a woman in white yesterday? Could it be that she was a swordsman?"
The captain said: "Yes, in the past few days, there has been a strict order from above to isolate the inside and outside. No one is allowed to run in from outside the mountain, and no one is allowed to run out from the mountain. Yesterday we caught a woman on the mountainside. How...ah, I remembered it.
She herself said that she was from Heyang, a righteous person of the imperial court, and she recognized the figures in the Prosecution Department. How could I remember that she said she recognized Mr. Xing, could it be you?"
Tang Zhao was also a little surprised, why did Black Widow not mention herself when she was punished?
Then he also understood that he had put on makeup and went on this trip with the Black Widow. It was obvious that he did not want to reveal his identity. Considering this, she would rather bring up the death penalty.
Of course, it's because Xingji is stronger, has a higher official position (at least before he was raped), has wider connections, has more cards in Xingji, and can find favors more easily.
Tang Zhao said: "She is indeed an old friend of Mr. Xing. I have traveled with her before. She is not a gangster. I wonder if I can let her go out with me?"
The captain muttered: "If you open your mouth in normal times, this kind of trivial matter would be nothing. But now the wind is too tight, and I can't make the decision even though I speak softly. In this case, you can go to the barracks to rest first, and when the general comes, you can tell him
As soon as he agrees, how about we send you out with her?"
