Since ancient times, Lingzhou has been known as one of the most amazing peaks in the world.
The beautiful place of Zhongling has created the prevalence of Buddhism and Taoism in Lingzhou, and many top sects have gathered together.
The relationship between warriors and ascetics is closer than that in Jiangzhou.
This place no longer belongs to Jiangdong Road. According to the administrative division of the Qianyuan Dynasty, this place should belong to Jiangbei Road.
A Qingluo River is divided into various channels.
The Jiangbei Road has a vast territory and a large population.
Since entering the city and heading north, Cao Jun's march was very slow.
After passing through the mountains near Dengcheng, the mountains became more rugged and difficult to navigate.
The baggage troops composed of equipment, food, tents, and various materials slowed down the overall marching speed.
Although the march was slow, the general was not in a hurry and practiced his troops while marching.
Cao Jun was marching more than ten miles east on another rugged mountain road. A man and a woman were walking on the mountain road.
Cao Su suddenly stopped.
"What's wrong."
Meng Yao behind him also stopped.
Cao Su shook his head and said: "This won't work. Your speed is too slow and you can't catch up with those people."
"According to the information I have obtained, they arrived in Dengzhou the day before yesterday. If we want to catch up with them, we must speed up our journey and at least enter the Huanjiang Ferry before tonight."
"Once the Huanjiang River passes, there are thousands of mountains and all the birds can fly away."
"A few hundred miles further north, you can reach Lingzhou Mansion. If he enters Lingzhou Mansion, it will be very difficult to kill him."
Meng Yao bit his lip and looked at Cao Su with a pitiful expression.
Cao Su said silently: "I can't be out for too long. I will give you two choices now."
"First, you go slowly on your own. Now that you have come out of Dengcheng, think about how you will live in the future. If you practice your sword skills well, you will be able to conquer the world. The disadvantage is that you will not be able to kill your enemies with your own hands."
"Second, I will take you with me, but this mountain road is difficult to navigate. I will use Qinggong to cross the mountain. I will stumble along the way. I will inevitably have to be skin-to-skin with you, which involves my personal reputation. Please consider it."
Sir, what kind of tiger-wolf talk is this?
Is this how skin care is used?
Besides, your body has been exposed, why do you still care about this little contact?
Meng Yao said without hesitation: "Sir, everything about me is yours, you can do whatever you want."
"Don't leave me, let's go together."
Immediately, she added: "I want to watch my enemy die in front of me."
Cao Su expected that she would make this choice, and was not surprised.
It's just that the good education he has received for a long time does not allow him to do anything directly.
After getting Meng Yao's consent, Cao Su reached out and took her over.
He is now tall and tall, holding Meng Yao in his arms easily with one arm.
Meng Yao is young, has a soft body, a waist as thin as a willow, and is as light as nothing.
Cao Su suddenly rushed forward and stepped out.
His ability to sprint in a straight line far exceeds that of ordinary people. Even on such a mountain road, there is nothing that can stop him.
Meng Yao felt the strong wind blowing by his ears, and it was hard to open his eyes.
The speed of walking like this is astonishingly fast.
When Cao Su encountered some hills with a drop of tens of meters, he always jumped over them and performed the double pole countless times.
Meng Yao remained silent and gritted his teeth, even though he was trembling with fear.
One after another, we passed the emerald green mountains. Most of the mountains were stable and much easier to walk than the holy mountains in the original realm.
In less than an hour, Cao Su had arrived at the Huanjiang Ferry.
He bought two bamboo hats and put them on his head, hiding his and Meng Yao's faces.
"When there are many people, just wear a hat and a mask. If others see you, there will be something wrong."
Cao Su paid the money and took Meng Yao across the river by boat.
Huanjiang River is the largest river in Lingzhou. It flows from northwest to southeast. The river surface is relatively stable. If you follow the flow upward, you can reach Lingzhou Prefecture.
After passing the Huanjiang River, the best way is to follow the river road. You can reach it by going northwest.
Chen An and his party will inevitably walk along the riverside road.
After Cao Su crossed the river, he bought two good horses at the ferry.
He is tall and majestic in physique, and his aura is only slightly restrained. When ordinary people see him, they shy away, and no one dares to provoke him at will.
I bought two horses, which made my journey faster.
Meng Yao's riding skills were average, and Cao Su was on hand to teach her how to sit correctly, how to tighten her legs, and how to exert force correctly.
"Riding depends on your understanding, that's all. It depends on your own learning ability."
Under the guidance of Cao Su, Meng Yao gradually mastered the essentials of riding a horse.
But how fast can a beginner ride a horse?
"Isn't this easier than practicing swordsmanship?"
Cao Su shook his head slightly. It turned out that Meng Yao was only very talented in swordsmanship and needed more practice on horseback riding.
"Sir, please stop riding and take me away..."
Meng Yao was anxious to hunt down his enemy and took the initiative to embrace him.
The two of them had no idea how much physical contact they had along the way, but they were in the mountains, and Cao Su had chosen some remote straight paths with fewer pedestrians. Now they were on the riverside, which was an official road.
She was also willing to risk everything and didn't care about anything but revenge.
Everything is filled with hatred.
Cao Su reluctantly agreed to her.
........
On the edge of the Huanjiang River, there were dozens of riders galloping wildly.
Chen An complained endlessly, and after leaving the mountain road, he began to ride a horse.
All these soldiers were very anxious, anxious to send him to Lingzhou Prefecture.
He was a young man who had never experienced such suffering before. His legs were so shocked that they were red and swollen.
"Stop and rest..."
There are also mountains along the river, and some of them block the official road, so you have to go into the mountains to hurry. Once you enter the mountains, the speed of horseback riding becomes much slower.
The strong man in gray clothes saw a dilapidated temple on the roadside and looked up at the sky again.
The sunset on the horizon has not dissipated yet, and there is still a certain degree of visibility.
Unexpectedly, Chen An took the initiative and said: "Brother, it's getting late today. Let's rest in the temple overnight. We can start our journey again at dawn tomorrow."
This place is less than a hundred miles away from Lingzhou Prefecture. If we drive for another day tomorrow, we should be able to reach it.
The strong man in gray nodded: "Okay, brothers, you have worked hard, let's have a night's rest."
More than ten people dismounted and walked into the temple.
The ruined temple seems to have been a place of Buddhist cultivation back then. There is also a stone Buddha statue stored in the temple, with eight arms and a ferocious face, staring at everyone who enters the temple.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In Lingzhou, Buddhism and Taoism are popular, and more Taoist temples and Buddhist temples have been built.
The more you build, the larger your base will be.
After hundreds of years passed, the population became sparse, the local market declined, and many were dilapidated and bankrupt.
The ruined temple was very cold and cold, so they gathered some firewood and prepared to light a fire to keep warm.
Chen An walked around the ruined temple several times and couldn't find a suitable place to stay.
There was dust and cobwebs everywhere, and it was obvious that no one had been here for a long time.
When he thought about being forced to run away from home, his face became gloomy.
"What bad luck..."
I met a crazy woman. There is definitely something wrong with this crazy woman's mind.
Chen An thought about that night. If that crazy woman had followed him, why would he kill her whole family? In the final analysis, this crazy woman was too cheap. She knew that she was both coquettish and promiscuous, so she didn't hide at home.
Go out and make a living.
If I had known earlier, I would have killed her too!
He didn't know what his mentality was at the time. It might have been because he didn't perform well and ended before it even started. The man's pride prompted him to save Gu Mengshi's life and wait to avenge his shame later...
..
If I had performed well and satisfied this coward, would the ending have been different?
Chen An was thinking wildly there, and then thought of Cao Su.
This Cao Su is also a hypocrite. Doesn’t he understand Cao Su’s thoughts?
It was just because he saw Gu Mengsheng's beauty that he became a little jealous. Perhaps the two of them were already together, so they spared no effort to seduce him in the city.
Thinking of this, Chen An felt a little sad and jealous.
It's the same martial arts practice. Why did Cao Su get so good at practice, but he became weaker and weaker the more he practiced?
He couldn't help but think about the scene of the woman he almost got, moaning and turning under Cao Su's burly body. Thinking about it, he actually felt a little short of breath.
There was a sick smile on his face.
The strong man sitting not far away in the temple saw this scene.
Under the dark stone Buddha, the fair-skinned young man's mouth was slightly open and he was laughing foolishly, but he did not make any laughter.
Somewhat creepy.
The young master of the Chen family is indeed a little abnormal.
General Jin actually wants to take this kind of brother-in-law into his home...
This made him sweat for General Jin.
"Sir, I want to collect news about the rebel army."
At this time, a man in gray clothes who had released the carrier pigeon walked into the house and handed the note to the strong man.
When the strong man saw it, he looked happy.
"It's safe. The rebel army has arrived at the Huan River and is traveling along Jiangxi. It has no plans to cross the river."
"It seems that Cao Su is really going to lead his army into Yuzhou to fight against Wanping Army."
At present, the Wanping Sect is wreaking havoc on the Central Plains, and Lingzhou has been holding back its troops in order to protect itself.
Those who are willing to enter Yuzhou to respond to the imperial court's call are truly ruthless.
The strong man actually knew that Cao Su didn't pay attention to Chen An's affairs at all. For these generals in charge of an army, they should only care about family and country affairs.
But the strong man has always been careful, and Jin'e sent him out this time because of this characteristic of his.
Check the points in the early stage and rob the prison.
Afterwards, he endured lurking in Dengcheng for more than half a month. When the rebel army moved out, Cao Su was unable to do anything, so he took Chen An out of Dengcheng. As soon as he left Dengcheng, he immediately rushed on the road without stopping.
It can be said that he did the best he could, and it was what he thought was the safest way to save people.
Thinking of this, the strong man walked out of the temple gate and said to several of his men: "Brothers, try hard to hold on for one more day and watch carefully all night, and you can return to Lingzhou Mansion tomorrow!"
Although his subordinates all responded, their faces looked relatively relaxed.
