After Wang Tao finished speaking, he gently stroked the spear in his hand, his expression obviously lost in reminiscence.
"I still remember that when I was a child, my father's most precious gun was not even allowed to be touched by me. I would often see him cleaning it alone late at night. I was not convinced about this, and finally one day I secretly stole the gun when my father was not paying attention.
"
When Wang Tao said this, a smile appeared on his lips, obviously he felt happy at that time.
"I thought that when my father found out, he would be furious and punish me, but I didn't expect that my father would just sigh, touch my head and ask me what I wanted to do when I grew up."
"I was young and ignorant at that time, but I also had great ambitions, so I told my father that when I grow up, I want to be a general like my father."
"After my father heard this, he was not happy, but just sighed. At that time, I didn't understand why my father sighed. It wasn't until that day, when he handed me the spear and asked me to leave, that I understood what the so-called great
Being a hero or a general is not that easy."
"In today's world, the king is incompetent, the witch is in charge, the villain is in power, the national power is declining day by day, the foreign iron ships and cannons are knocking on the door of our country, burning, killing and looting, doing all kinds of evil. It's a shame that most people in the world are hiding their ears and stealing the bell, but they don't know that the catastrophe is coming."
"My father has been loyal throughout his life, but he was framed by villains. He could have escaped, but he was willing to die. Do you think it's worth it?"
Wang Tao kept talking, but the two guards behind him fell silent, as if they didn't know how to answer his young general's words.
"Why don't we rebel against this world and this world?" Suddenly, Wang Tao's eyes became extremely sharp and his voice was sonorous and powerful.
"Major General, be careful what you say!"
The two guards behind them were horrified and quickly looked back. Fortunately, no one was around at the moment, but even so, the two of them were frightened.
"Don't worry, uncles, I'm just talking casually."
At this time, Wang Tao smiled instead, with nothing strange on his face, as if what he just said was really just casual talk.
"Young General, we know that the old general died unjustly, so when I go to the capital, I must clear the grievances of the old general and restore his innocence." A guard said solemnly.
"Then what?" Wang Tao continued to ask.
"Then?" The guard was immediately asked. Isn't it enough to wash away the grievances and return the innocence?
"Okay, it's already late at night, so you two uncles should take a rest early." After Wang Tao said this, he finally got up, holding the spear and left.
But the two guards had worried looks on their faces at the same time.
In the room on the second floor, Mu Yi suddenly showed a strange expression. His gaze extended out of the window and looked into the extremely deep darkness. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.
In the next two days, the building boat went down the river. After the battle at Xijiggang in Kaifeng, the rivers and lakes were indeed silent for a while, as if the world was silent for a while, but then a bigger wave set off.
After entering Shandong, Lou Chuan was attacked several times, but each time he was eliminated by Wang Tao and his two personal guards before Mu Yi even took action. Even once, a master sneaked into Lou Chuan.
He was also taken care of by Nian Nuer.
So these days, Mu Yi has been practicing with peace of mind, constantly consolidating his realm. In his opinion, he can already open the third level if he wants to. However, Mu Yi is not in a hurry, but continues to lay a solid foundation.
, waiting for the accumulation of time and effort.
In this way, the building boat finally arrived all the way to Jinan Prefecture. At this moment, Mu Yi faced two choices. One was to go from Jinan Prefecture to Cangzhou, and the second was to pass through Jinan Prefecture and continue down to Binzhou, and then he could also go to Cangzhou.
.
There seems to be no difference between the two options, but after all, Jinan Prefecture is more prosperous and has more merchants coming and going. You only need to pass through Dezhou and Cangzhou to see again.
As for Binzhou, you can go directly to Cangzhou, but you still need to take an extra day's boat ride.
Therefore, after arriving in Jinan Prefecture, the steward came to ask Mu Yi for instructions and let him make a decision.
"Let's disembark at Jinan Mansion." Mu Yi glanced at Da Nu, who had been feeling depressed recently, and said directly.
After getting on the boat, Da Nu suddenly became paralyzed. Obviously, this kind of swaying boat was not suitable for him. Even when the monster in the river appeared that day, he just stayed in the room.
Therefore, since he was able to get off the ship early, Mu Yi would naturally not let Da Nu suffer anymore.
After hearing Mu Yi say "get off the boat", Da Nu's eyes visibly lit up.
After hearing Mu Yi's words, the steward didn't know whether he should be happy or reluctant. After receiving Xu Le's order, he thought that this mission must be dangerous and dangerous, but he didn't expect that the process turned out so smoothly that he couldn't believe it.
Although there were some people who intercepted them, they were solved in three attacks and five divided by two. Except for the monster and the river god that I encountered that night, it was all smooth sailing.
Now that Mu Yi is leaving, his mission this time will naturally be completed. He only needs to return to Luoyang, and he will definitely be rewarded and reused. However, what he saw and heard along the way made it difficult for the steward to forget.
Especially that pretty and cute little girl, what a pity...
The steward shook his head and could only sigh in his heart.
"Taoist priest, please take a short rest. I'm going to hire a carriage to take the Taoist priest to Cangzhou." The steward suppressed his thoughts and said hurriedly.
According to Xu Le's wishes, he must serve Mu Yi well. Although he does not need to accompany him to Cangzhou, he must prepare everything.
"No, I'm going to Cangzhou on foot." Unexpectedly, Mu Yi shook his head and said.
"Walking?" The steward looked at Mu Yi in surprise. It was still hundreds of miles from Jinan Prefecture to Cangzhou. Walking would not only take longer, but also be tiring.
However, Mu Yi did not give him a chance to continue persuading him. He directly called the slave and got off the boat.
Since Mu Yi decided to disembark here, Wang Tao and the two personal guards naturally packed their things and followed.
After waiting for Mu Yi and others' backs to disappear into the distance, the steward suddenly became excited and asked, "Where did the little girl go?"
At this time, the steward discovered that there was only a giant named Da Nu beside Mu Yi, but he did not see the little girl.
At that moment, the steward hurried back to the ship, but after he searched the upper and lower floors and even the bottom warehouse and still couldn't find the little girl, his face turned pale.
"Hey, what a sin."
The steward shook his head, the last trace of goodwill toward Mu Yi disappearing in his heart.
Compared to the stewards, both Wang Tao and the two personal guards were more able to keep their composure. After Nian Nuer disappeared, they had doubts, but they didn't show it at all on their faces.
As a result, a strange team appeared on the official road.
Taoist priest, giant, major general, bodyguard.
Therefore, almost everyone looked at him along the way, but even Wang Tao didn't understand why Mu Yi insisted on walking. Wouldn't it be better to take a carriage? It was not only more comfortable, but also saved a lot of trouble.
You know, Mu Yi is now famous in the world. During the battle in Xijigang, I don’t know how many eyes were dropped. But Mu Yi’s ability to go from Luoyang to Kaifeng and all the way to Jinan speaks for itself, which explains a lot of problems.
Trying to pick up bargains on the road will cost you your life.
Therefore, in Wang Tao's eyes, Mu Yi was a bit too ostentatious. His behavior seemed to be telling Jinan Mansion and the people of the world, I am here, come and find me. It was asking for trouble.
However, Wang Tao was not stupid enough to speak out, and he could only follow Mu Yi, even though he knew that doing so would attract his enemies.
Since he dared to go to Beijing to rehabilitate his father, he naturally had evidence in his hands. The reason why he took shelter with Xu Le was because he was being hunted all the time. Now he finally came to Jinan Mansion. Although he was far away from Luoyang, no one could
Surely his enemies will give up.
Just taking a look at Mu Yi and the giant beside him, Wang Tao put his worries back in his heart. With these two around, he believed that even if the other party really came to find him, they would not be able to harm him.
In fact, just as Wang Tao expected, as soon as Mu Yi and Da Nu appeared, they were immediately noticed by interested people. The news was passed through many layers, and some big shots in Jinan Mansion also knew about it.
Don't think that the spread of news is blocked at this time. This is indeed the case for ordinary people, who have never left their hometowns in their entire lives. But for those in the world, and for those big shots, it is necessary to grasp the situation in the world.
There has been a lot of fuss recently about the key to the Yellow River Ancient Road. How could they not know about it?
As for the murder of the right minister's beloved son, they had long been submerged in the news of the ancient Yellow River Road. Even after Mu Yi left the Henan area, the right minister's influence was seriously insufficient. As for the Shandong area, it was beyond his reach.
····················
"The general already knows what your lord wants. Now that he has arrived at our border in Jinan, it is natural that he will not be able to escape."
In an official residence in Jinan Mansion, Yang Yin looked at the figure in front of him and said calmly, his tone full of confidence.
"General, please be careful. There is a demon from the Jianghu next to that person at the moment. He is very powerful and must not be ignored." The figure couldn't help but remind him.
"The Demon Dao? Is he the rumored winner of the key to the Yellow River Ancient Road?" Yang Yin asked.
"Exactly, the two of them got mixed up together for some unknown reason. I tried it twice on the road, but both times failed," the figure said.
"Hmph, there is only one Taoist priest around, so what if he is famous? It just so happens that this time he was dealt with too." Yang Yin said directly. As for the key to the ancient Yellow River Road, it is obviously impossible to say that he has no idea.
After all, it is rumored that there is wealth unrivaled in the ancient Yellow River Road, and even a true dragon is buried there. Whoever can inherit the spirit of the true dragon will be the true dragon emperor.
How could he not see the chaos in this world? He was just waiting for the opportunity.
If the Yellow River Ancient Road was really so magical, then he would certainly not let it go.
The figure in front of Yang Yin wanted to remind him, but when he spoke, he did not say it. He knew very well how powerful Mu Yi was. Although he did not witness the battle of Xiji Gang with his own eyes, he had been there afterwards and what he saw and heard
, still hard to believe.
If it weren't for the difficult orders, he might have backed down long ago. (To be continued)
