Although the General's Mansion controls hundreds of thousands of mountains in Southern Xinjiang, although Southern Xinjiang is large, it is divided and ruled. Each tribe has its own head and neck.
But Northern Xinjiang is different. Northern Xinjiang only recognizes the Lie family army.
As long as the Li family gives an order, any tiger talisman, any imperial edict, or the jade seal can be put aside. They only recognize the Silver Moon Red Tassel Spear in the hands of the Li family's sons.
The emperor once sent waves of people to penetrate the northern Xinjiang and control the northern Xinjiang. In the end, they either failed to return or were simply assimilated.
Therefore, the emperor finally chose the approach of his ancestors: accommodation.
If you don't accommodate me, I will accommodate you.
After all, as long as the Li family is here, Northern Xinjiang will be safe. If it were anyone else, he wouldn't be able to shake it!
Fortunately, the Duke Protector's Office never participated in government affairs. They only took care of northern Xinjiang.
"My second brother is my fierce rival, and I have been since I was a child."
As long as he is around, their brothers will have to step aside. So he has been looking for opportunities to get rid of him.
"Your Majesty, I'm afraid it's not appropriate to do something under the eyes of the Lie family's army." said an experienced aide.
"Can a group of dolls also become an army?"
The young staff member said disdainfully: "I think this is the best time to take action."
"Oh? Tell me." The King of Thailand motioned to the young staff to continue.
The young staff member immediately straightened his back and started talking.
"This spring search is all participated by young people from the Li family who have no combat experience. Even if there are generals following, they can't take care of them."
"We can do this, this, this...kill two birds with one stone."
Prince Zhuang's Mansion.
The fourth prince Zhao Qingzhuang also gave orders.
"Has the news about your second brother's spring search activity been sent out?"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, not only has the news of His Highness Prince Qi's participation in the spring search activity been sent out, but also the news that he and Lie Yan are working together."
"Oh? Just the two of them? This does give them a chance."
They all automatically ignored Li Xiaomian's existence.
In their hearts, Li Xiaomian is just a maid at best, not worth mentioning.
"So, Your Majesty, just relax and watch the show. The people over there want Lie Yan's life even more. They will do whatever it takes."
Just like that genius in the family that year.
Some eagles just focus on the opponent's genius.
And their second brother and Lie Yan are both genius targets that they have been eyeing for a long time.
Prince Zhuang sighed, wiped his tears with infinite sadness and said: "It's a pity that siblings can kill each other. Second brother, I'm sorry for you, brother."
No one among the staff below spoke. They lowered their heads and did not dare to express their anger.
Suddenly, Prince Zhuang clapped his hands and laughed again, "Hehehe, who told you to block my way? Anyone who blocks me will be killed without mercy."
The staff had long been accustomed to seeing Prince Zhuang crying and laughing at the same time. What they were even more afraid of was Prince Zhuang's ruthlessness.
If Li Xiaomian were here, he would definitely spit out two words: drama expert or fine point.
Lie Yan and the other three were the second group to arrive at the A place.
From point A to point B and point C, they form a triangle.
Zhao Qifan took out a map and said to the two of them: "Let's go to Land C first, so we can bypass Snake Valley."
Xiao Mian frowned, "Why don't we go directly through Snake Valley? This way the distance will be shortened by half."
Zhao Qifan frowned, "Junior sister, don't take risks, this Snake Valley is not easy to break into."
Lie Yan understands Xiao Mian's confidence. They have detoxifying pills and are not afraid of snake venom.
"It is said that the snakes in Snake Valley are more vindictive, so it is more cost-effective for us to take a detour, otherwise a cluster of snakes will appear from time to time in the future, which will be quite annoying."
Is there any other way to say this?
Xiaomian's eyes flashed, thinking that there would be an opportunity to come in for exploration in the future. An organized and disciplined group of snakes indicated the existence of a snake king.
But now, in order to take care of His Highness King Qi, it doesn't matter if we take a two-step detour.
The three of them decided to take a detour and quickly walked through the mountains and forests.
When he shot a prey on the road, Xiao Mian would always throw it away.
It seems random, but it can be thrown in front of someone accurately every time.
He was crying with the secret guards of the palace. He had hidden himself so secretly. How could this eldest lady still find him?
"Tell me, how did she find me?"
The other person glared at him and said, "Shut up and don't send the prey back yet."
"Do you really think of yourself as their scout?"
"Otherwise? Do you want to reveal your identity?"
"Of course I don't want to," the secret guard was about to cry but had no choice but to accept his fate and help Xiao Mian take the prey to the nearest station.
The three of them were moving very fast and were getting closer and closer to Snake Valley.
Xiaomian's ears suddenly twitched, and she raised her head suddenly, meeting a pair of amber-colored evil eyes.
The owner of the gaze is like a giant lizard lying on a tall tree trunk, his entire body blending into the surrounding environment.
If Xiao Mian wasn't naturally sensitive, she probably wouldn't have been able to detect him with her spiritual sense alone.
"There is a killer."
The moment Li Xiaomian said the words, the man also moved at the same time.
When the man threw the dagger, "swish, swish, swish", several poisonous arrows glowing green were also shot at him.
Only then did Xiao Mian realize that the surrounding trees were already covered with such tree men.
Damn it, she was so careless that she was surrounded.
Xiao Mian yelled: "Dahuang."
Lie Yan's long sword had arrived in front of her and blocked a deadly poisonous arrow for her.
Li Xiaomian threw an iron chain with his backhand, wrapped it around the poison arrow and then reflected it back.
"ah!"
A scream came from the other party.
The two people here cooperated tacitly, and they were able to defeat four or five people on the other side in seconds.
But Zhao Qifan was shocked by Li Xiaomian's "big yellow" sentence.
Looking at the scene of the two of them cooperating seamlessly, he felt as if he was in a nightmare again, unable to move.
When Li Xiaomian noticed something strange about him, a poisonous arrow was already close to his face.
"Holy shit, what is this guy doing?"
Lie Yan was so anxious that he cursed, but it was extremely difficult to get back to protect him.
In desperation, Li Xiaomian threw an object, which instantly landed in front of Zhao Qifan. It was close to his face and could block the poisonous arrow for him.
Lie Yan kicked him over, "You don't want your life?"
Xiao Mian took back the thing that blocked Zhao Qifan's arrow, which was the elder brother's black gold soul-locking fan.
The black gold soul-locking fan trembled and towered. Li Xiaomian was shocked and couldn't help but glance at Zhao Qifan one more time.
Zhao Qifan came to his senses and knew that now was a dangerous time and it was not the time to be distracted.
The three of them worked together to repel the first wave of killers.
However, the second wave soon came.
Looking at the lizard men flying on the treetops, Li Xiaomian frowned: "Who are these people?"
Zhao Qifan dodged an arrow and said: "It looks like a tree man from southern Xinjiang. He is full of poison. He is good at running and jumping in the mountains and forests. He is good at shooting arrows and hits the target with perfect accuracy."
"I'll go, Zhao, these people are here for you."
Lie Yan was guarding the two of them with his sword. I heard that he was a tree man from southern Xinjiang, which has nothing to do with northern Xinjiang. They were all implicated by this guy King Qi.
Zhao Qifan smiled bitterly, "It should be."
Li Xiaomian looked at more and more tree people and said decisively: "We retreat into Snake Valley."
"It can only be this way."
The three of them fought and retreated.
The tree people seemed to understand their plan, and their attacks became more fierce.
Under the cover of Lie Yan, Xiao Mian held an iron chain in one hand and a black gold soul-locking fan in the other. He opened his bow from left to right and reflected back all the poisonous arrows that could be blocked in his hand.
Zhao Qifan looked at the black gold soul-locking fan, his heart pounding in his mind. His men always made mistakes, and there were dangers everywhere.
When the three of them successfully retreated into the Snake Valley, the tree man's speed was obviously slowed down by the attacks of the snakes in the trees.
The three of them didn't dare to stay. They had to get rid of these people completely.
In order not to leave any traces, Lie Yan and the others moved forward with the help of vines.
