Bai Zhao's envoy building was built in a separate area in the north of Tianyong Capital City, with no other buildings around it.
Tonight, dark clouds cover the moon, and the starlight is extremely dim. There is also not even a trace of light visible in the ambassador's building. In the darkness, only the outline of the building can be vaguely seen, like a giant beast with its mouth wide open.
The surroundings were eerily quiet. Even though it was summer, there was no sound of insects. Jie Nanshi stood on the tree opposite the ambassador's building, completely hiding his breath.
He took out the Taoist talisman held between his fingertips. When the Taoist talisman hit an inch in front of the wall of the envoy's building, it suddenly spontaneously ignited and burned completely.
It was a formation with a strong barrier, and he was not completely sure that he could break it without disturbing the people inside.
Just when Xie Nanshi was about to return to the City Lord's Mansion to make preparations before making any plans, he heard a beast's roar. The roar was almost inaudible in such a quiet night, but it carried a powerful pressure.
This formation can also isolate sounds.
Jie Nanshi hesitated for a moment, and in a few steps he approached the front of the ambassador's building. The white halo aura wrapped around his fingers touched the barrier lightly, and the place he touched seemed to be burned by fire.
A hole the size of a finger was exposed. Then a folded talisman flew out of his sleeve and flew into the barrier along the hole.
Xie Nanshi didn't waste any time, turned around and disappeared into the night.
Almost at the same time, the originally dark envoy's building suddenly lit up with long lights. The formation blocked the noise inside and did not spread any noise outside.
At this time, inside the ambassador's premises, several teams of guards were patrolling around with torches.
The footsteps and the sound of searches woke up Sun Fengyuan, who was sleeping on the woman. He got up angrily, put on a coat casually and strode out. "What are you making all the noise about?!"
The guard at the door quickly reported: "Young Master, there was something strange at the barrier just now. We are afraid that someone from Tianyong will sneak in, so we are investigating."
Sun Fengyuan looked stern: "Did you find out? The barrier was destroyed?"
The guard took a deep breath and quickly knelt down: "Young Master made atonement. No abnormalities were found, and the barrier was not destroyed. Maybe..."
Sun Fengyuan squinted his eyes, unable to tell whether he was happy or angry: "What could it be?"
The guard buried his head on the ground and said quickly: "Maybe an animal like a bird hit the barrier."
"Trash!" Sun Fengyuan kicked the guard. "Whoever bothers me to sleep again will go directly to feed Ah Jiu tomorrow."
The guard lowered his head and did not dare to say a word, and the ambassador's building quickly returned to silence. A piece of yellow talisman paper fell gently, as if floating in the wind on a windless night, and floated in the direction of the beast's roar.
.
…
Xie Nanshi came back much faster than Song Yu expected, and he had already returned to the wing before the fourth watch gong rang.
At this moment, Song Yu was flicking the wick with his fingers in boredom. When he saw someone coming back, his eyes lit up. He had stayed up all night and waited in vain! "Have you found anything?"
Xie Nanshi did not answer immediately, but first sat down and took a sip of tea before saying: "The boundary of the ambassador's building is more complicated than I expected. If I were forced to do it, I am not sure that it will not alarm people."
Song Yu was a little surprised when he heard this. Du Anchen couldn't break it because she was not good at it, but the little Taoist priest couldn't break it easily. "Why did they build such a complicated formation in Tianyong?"
"I also heard the beast's roar." Xie Nanshi paused briefly before continuing: "Although I didn't enter the formation, I can still detect information by sending in a piece of talisman paper."
Song Yu instantly thought of the Onmyoji, his eyes lit up with the Paper Man Technique, and then he thought of a higher level: "A paper man that can move and run? Then do you know how to spread the beans into soldiers?"
Jie Nanshi glanced at Song Yu helplessly: "Where can I go to cut paper at night? It's just an ordinary talisman paper. With the help of spiritual power, I can avoid the guards and find the source of the beast's roar. I can do the same here.
I can feel it.”
The rest of the words sounded normal, but Song Yu grabbed the first sentence of Jie Nanshi's complaint and marveled at it. This was simply not something that a cold Taoist priest would say.
Xie Nanshi simply closed his eyes, not wanting to talk to the convulsing person, but after a moment, Xie Nanshi opened his eyes again and looked at Song Yu: "Found it."
"Just confirm the location." Song Yu stood up and moved his hands and feet. After sitting here for a night, he felt that he was almost stiff: "These Bai Zhao people are really bold in raising exotic beasts in our Dayong territory.
"
He yawned as he spoke, feeling that he was finally a little sleepy: "Little Taoist Master, you should also go to bed early and have a rest. Tomorrow we will go to the ambassador's building."
Xie Nanshi was stunned for a moment: "Doesn't the ambassador's building not accept any foreign guests?"
Song Yu chuckled: "The mountain man has his own clever plan." After saying this, he yawned and returned to his room, fell back and pressed the sleep button.
…
In the afternoon, Song Yu, who felt refreshed, jumped off the carriage and looked at the eerily quiet envoy building in front of him. He looked back hesitantly at Xie Nanshi who had followed him out of the carriage, and came closer to him.
He asked softly in his ear: "Are you sure you can defeat the strange beast inside?"
Xie Nanshi nodded.
"What about the people in this mansion?" Song Yu continued to ask sincerely: "Can we still come out intact by then?"
Xie Nanshi looked at Song Yu with complicated eyes, and answered affirmatively: "I can." With the "men" removed, it sounded very spiritual.
Song Yu sighed. He always felt unsafe. Speaking of which, Qiaoyi didn't know what was going on there. Why didn't anyone arrive yet?
What he didn't know was that at this time, a beautiful big parrot was spreading its wings and flying in all the streets and alleys of Tianyong City, shouting at the top of its voice.
"Young Master Tianyong Song Yu went to the envoy's residence to summon Young Master Sun Fengyuan for a battle."
"Young Master Tianyong Song Yu went to the envoy's residence to summon Young Master Sun Fengyuan for a battle."
The lingering sound lingered for a long time. The whole Tianyong was awakened.
In the City Lord's Mansion, Song Chengwei supported his sick body and looked outside with a frown, then turned to look somewhere in the room.
Du Anchen, who had been hiding in the darkness, flashed out, saluted Song Chengwei, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
At the same time in Chen Guogong's mansion, Lin Ting laughed twice and stood up and said to the guards: "Since my nephew is going to challenge, I, as the uncle, have to support the situation and come with someone to prepare the horse."
All of a sudden, people from all walks of life, regardless of their purpose, were rushing to the ambassador's building.
Of course, Song Yu didn't know the situation outside, and he couldn't wait for these people to arrive before breaking in. It would be strange if Bai Zhao's people would let them in by then. He just wanted to break out when he was "weak".
An opening so that everyone can come in.
He bounced on the spot a few times, took a deep breath, then strode forward, raised his foot and started kicking the door, while shouting loudly: "Your grandpa is here to challenge, why don't you open the door quickly!"
Soon there was movement from the door: "Who is it?"
The closed door was opened, and there were several soldiers in armor standing inside, pointing their spears at Song Yu: "Baizhao City Envoy Building, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous!"
Song Yu raised his eyelids: "Your young master stopped my car in the street yesterday and wanted to duel with me. Why don't you admit it today? You are so shy!"
Several soldiers looked at each other and recognized that the person in front of them was Tianyong's young city master. They hesitantly put down their guns and said: "Young Master Song, please come back. Our young master will make an appointment with you to fight again when he has time."
Song Yu snorted coldly: "You young master can make an appointment whenever you want. What do you think of us Tianyong?! Since you dared to block the car yesterday, you dare not challenge it today? Get out of the way, I will be here now!"
Let’s duel with your young master here!”
"Young Master Song, please don't embarrass us." The soldier did not yield an inch, and his tone could not be called respectful at all.
Song Yu sneered: "So your young master went back on his promise and didn't plan to duel? You thought he was some kind of person and ran to the city gate to stop me. It seems he is just a coward. Forget it, let's go."
As he said this, he turned around and was about to return to the carriage. At this moment, a sharp voice came from the ambassador's building: "Stop! Who said that I don't dare to fight!"
The corner of Song Yu's mouth rose unconsciously, and the fish finally took the bait. This was the best strategy he came up with. He couldn't forcefully enter Bai Zhao's building without evidence, but when he was invited in by the owner, he unexpectedly discovered that there was a strange beast hidden inside.
...There can’t be anything wrong with it, right?!
Song Yu quickly put away his smile, turned to look at Sun Fengyuan who was walking out of the door, and said bluntly: "Go in and fight."
Sun Fengyuan snorted, picked up the long knife from his back, and pointed it horizontally at Song Yu: "No, just right here, I can kill you with one move."
Song Yu clicked his tongue, and he subconsciously wanted to hide behind Jie Nanshi, but considering today's purpose, his feet were nailed to the spot and did not move: "What? You Bai Zhao want to fight in front of home and see blood? So barbaric?
"
Sun Fengyuan was extremely angry, but he had to admit that Song Yu's words... made sense. Blood splattered three feet in front of his house, even if it was the blood of his enemy, it was unlucky. So although he was impatient, he still put away the knife with his backhand: "
Then tell me where to fight, and I will go with you!"
Song Yu's face was full of fuss: "I just returned to the capital yesterday, and I came to your territory to accept your duel without even resting. Why do you want to change places? If you want to fight, go in and fight. If you don't want to fight, forget it. I'll leave."
He turned around and left without any hesitation.
"You stay here." Sun Fengyuan raised his knife and chopped it off.
Song Yu didn't look back at all, because there was Jie Nanshi behind him. This knife couldn't chop it down.
As expected by Song Yu, Jie Nanshi blocked Song Yu with one wrong step, and a golden light flashed from the seal on his hand to repel Sun Fengyuan again.
Sun Fengyuan took a few steps back uncontrollably and looked at Jie Nanshi in surprise. Bai Zhao's soldiers raised their spears again.
Song Yu stopped and looked at Sun Fengyuan with a sarcastic smile: "Why did the dignified young master Bai Zhao change from a duel to a sneak attack and a siege?"
