The tall and mighty old man came to the lonely old man and suddenly seemed to become much smaller. There was respect and fear from the bottom of his heart in his demeanor.
"Palace Master, the young man who is suspected to be the messenger of the Spring and Autumn Period has left the capital of Sui Dynasty. The old man Tianying of Tianying Palace and Tian Xiangzi of Momen have also left their old nests, most likely to find this young man.
"
"Go and bring that young man to see me." The lonely old man suddenly had light in his cloudy old eyes, "If Tian Xiangzi and Tian Ying Xiao'er dare to rob people from us, then fight them to the death. I don't care what methods you use.
, we must bring that young man back."
…
…
On the bank of the Wei River, at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, is the official road from Guanzhong to Yongzhou. The official road along the Wei River Valley to Tianshui County in Yongzhou is long and winding, like a jade belt, passing between the peaks of the Longshan Mountains in the Qinling Mountains. Night is approaching,
The setting sun has already set behind the mountain, and the last rays of the setting sun can only be seen from the top of the mountain.
In the approaching dusk, in the middle of this official road, in front of a post station that had been in disrepair for a long time, Wang Junlin waved his hand and the motorcade stopped. Zhan Peng led a hundred guards in fully armed cavalry uniforms to surround the motorcade. Niu Jinda
He Yuzimo rode a tall horse and followed Wang Junlin to the left and right. The entire convoy actually consisted of two carriages. Originally, one of them was for Wang Junlin to ride on. Wang Junlin let Shen Guoer sit on it, and the other carriage
But it was given to a shameless scholar.
Shen Guang is not among them. He and the ghost eyes he established are hidden in the dark, incarnating into various identities and moving forward together.
After walking for a whole day, the pace was neither fast nor slow, ninety miles away, and after another twenty miles, we arrived at Baoji County in Hechi County.
To the north of the Weishui River is Pingliang County in Yongzhou. After walking four hundred miles through the valley at the junction of Pingliang County and Hechi County, you can reach Tianshui County. From a geographical point of view, the official road on the north bank of the Weishui River should belong to Hechi County, but due to
Due to the barrier of Longshan, Hechi County cannot directly administer it. In fact, Pingliang County and Hechi County each manage half of it, and each sends patrols to maintain law and order on the road.
The location of the post station is close to the mountains and rivers, connected to the sky and the earth. The mountains and rivers have the appearance of dragons and snakes. The Feng Shui here is very good. If you bury a coffin, you can prosper your family. Therefore, this Hekou Post Station is dilapidated like an old ancestral hall next to an old tomb.
, but Wang Junlin was not surprised at all.
If it were in the capital or a prefectural city, the post station would have carved balustrades and painted buildings, with multiple buildings and verdant greenery, which would be even more impressive than the county government office. However, since it is a post office in Shangouzili, the facilities are much simpler. This building is called Shijia
At the inn in Ping, you can see thatched grass standing on the roof, while half of the side room in the backyard even collapsed and was left there without maintenance.
"This is probably because the ancestral hall was renovated." Wang Junlin thought to himself.
More than a hundred people came on horseback, making a lot of noise, but no one came out to greet the inn. When they were more than ten steps away from the inn, Maomao suddenly bared his teeth at the inn and let out a roar. The blood-maned horse also raised its front hooves and roared.
Neighing, almost at the same time, Wang Junlin also smelled the faint smell of blood.
Almost at the same time, Wang Junlin suddenly heard a scream coming from the inn.
The meaning of a miserable cry is that a person's cry is full of sorrow, terror, pain and despair. Therefore, a miserable cry is never pleasant to hear.
However, the miserable cries that everyone, including Wang Junlin, heard this time, could no longer be described by words such as tragic, terrifying, painful, desperate, and unpleasant.
This miserable cry gave each of them a feeling of being torn apart. Flesh, flesh, bones, liver, blood vessels, tendons, nails, and hair were all torn apart.
Because the screams that everyone heard at this time were like the sound of drums on the battlefield, one after another, one after another, one after another...
Wang Junlin's eyes narrowed. Without his instructions, Niu Jinda had already led ten guards. With his steel sword unsheathed and steel crossbow cocked, he walked into the inn with a vigilant look. Zhan Peng whispered orders one after another, and the other guards quickly dispersed.
Open, search for suspicious persons nearby, and occupy a favorable location.
After being locked up in the house for more than three months, Yu Zimo, who was almost suffocated, looked eager to try, just like Maomao the lynx, who was eager to prove his ability.
Wang Junlin comforted Maomao and Xuemane, stopped Yu Zimo who wanted to rush into the inn with his horse, and then walked into the inn with his hands behind his back.
The door of the inn was open, and a group of people went in. No one was seen in the two dining halls in front. After passing these two houses, there was a small courtyard at the back. In the courtyard, there were cobblestone paths and a solitary old plum tree.
Open in a small courtyard.
Regardless of Niu Jinda's objections, Wang Junlin quickened his pace and walked in front alongside Niu Jinda, surrounded by ten guards.
Wang Junlin faced the cold evening wind, took a long breath, and then exhaled.
His breathing stopped suddenly and his pupils shrank.
Because he suddenly saw a pale face among the branches and leaves of the old plum tree, looking at him with a ghostly smile.
A smiling face suddenly appeared in front of you, and it was looking at you and smiling.
What will you do?
Niu Jinda reacted quickly. He took a step back, twisted his waist, and leaped into the sky. He raised his left hand across his chest to defend himself, and reached out for his big eagle claw with his right hand, preparing to grab this pale face from the plum tree.
But he didn't grab it with this claw, because Wang Junlin reached out and grabbed his arm firmly.
Wang Junlin has seen the smiling faces of many people in his past life and future lives, but he has only seen ten smiling faces with such crooked smiles, such evil smiles, such warm and scary smiles, and this one in front of him.
One piece.
Nine of the smiling faces were invited by Sha Qianmo, the horse thief king of the Western Regions, in the Qilian Mountains outside Shazhou City at the beginning of the year. The latter greeted him with nine corpses. The faces of the nine corpses at that time were just like these nine smiling faces. And the tenth one was
The smiling face was created during a bet between him and the old man and his wife of Sky Eagle in the Sky Eagle Palace in his new mansion nearly two months ago. The other party killed one of his guards and created such a smiling face, and claimed that it was the first one.
"Nine corpses welcome... the second corpse?" Wang Junlin muttered to himself, his expression was cold.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and the corpse suddenly ignited without fire. Green flames were discovered, and the flames became extremely large in an instant.
Wang Junlin's expression changed and he shouted: "Hold your breath and retreat quickly."
The ten guards had long been prohibited by the orders trained by Wang Junlin. When they heard the order, they held their breath for the first time and retreated towards the way they came as quickly as possible.
Wang Junlin followed them and retreated, but he was holding his head in his hand and was already dizzy, with a faint green Niu Jinda on his face.
Among Wang Junlin's subordinates, Niu Jinda and Shen Guang are naturally the strongest. They are both at the peak of the stagnation period and have rich fighting experience. However, because they have not experienced Wang Junlin's training, when they heard Wang Junlin's order, Niu Jinda instinctively
I was stunned for a moment before I did it, but after being stunned, it was already too late.
