The members of the Flying Bird Battalion were full of doubts, but they could not feel any disobedience to Zhao Kuangyin's orders. They did not expect that Zhao Kuangyin would let this young boy be their commander. Although they knew that the boy was related to
Zhao Kuangyin has an unusual relationship, but that boy is still so young after all. Can he lead the hundreds of members of the Flying Bird Battalion to a new starting point? So they are filled with all kinds of doubts, but for this boy
Young teenagers, they can't feel any dissatisfaction. They don't know about Alai and others, and they don't even know about Alai and others leaving, so when they are in panic, Zhao Kuangyin doesn't give any explanation.
, he left Ling Tianyun to them and became their boss.
Ling Tianyun didn't have any explanation. He looked at these big men with doubts in their eyes. He only told them some things, that is, to find the Khitan stronghold at any cost. He asked these flying birds of different ages.
The battalion members only talked about the importance of some things, but didn't say much else. He was extremely anxious about the fact that the only remaining members of the Feng family, Feng Bupo and his wife, were kidnapped by the Khitans.
A member of the Flying Bird Battalion hurried away from the courtyard, and Ling Tianyun stood alone in the courtyard. His heart was filled with endless indignation, but there was no way to vent this indignation.
He did not expect the Khitans to be so bold.
He sighed, only told the other two members who stayed in the base camp, and hurried out. He got on a horse tied in front of the courtyard gate. He raised his whip, and the horse neighed.
He galloped away with four hooves. He didn't know where to go. He didn't know how to start looking for the Khitan stronghold. There were no clues at all. He could only hope that the members of the Flying Bird Battalion could find some clues, otherwise he would
Like a headless fly, there are no clues at all.
As he rode his horse through the streets, he thought of the courtyard where he and Ye Yinfeng had a misunderstanding and broke into that day. He rode his horse in that direction based on his memory.
At this time, the warm spring breeze began to permeate the imperial capital, and the biting chill began to weaken a lot. A blush like residual blood rolled up the light like fireworks, and the clouds were covered by the sunset that disappeared behind it.
It was rendered into a mass of blood-like red. An invisible depression arose spontaneously. The wind blew up everyone's clothes and swayed the branches on both sides of the stream. At this time, the people in the imperial capital
They felt a few strange breaths, and the suppressed breath made them almost breathless. They found that there were some strange faces around them, which made them suddenly feel panic.
The meaning permeated the air.
After crossing the stone arch bridge, Ling Tianyun rode his horse slowly toward the small street. He did not dare to let the horse run wildly on that street. This place made him frightened. If the Khitan people were still here, then he would be alone
Being alone in danger, he couldn't think of any other word that could be more appropriate besides seeking death.
This small street was quiet and there were only a few people walking around. Those passers-by were obviously local residents. Ling Tianyun did not dare to be careless, so he slowed down his horse and came to the door of the courtyard. He
I found that the gate of the courtyard was tightly closed, and there was even silence in the courtyard.
"Senior, do you dare to come forward to this courtyard?" Ling Tianyun sat on the horse and asked a staggering old man. The old man had silver hair on his head, a stooped back, and a cane in his hand.
He is an ordinary resident of the imperial capital, wearing an old but clean long coat.
"No one has lived in this courtyard for a long time. Young man, are you here to visit relatives or are you looking for a place to live?" the old man replied to Ling Tianyun in a hoarse voice. There was a bit of surprise in his turbid eyes.
, looked at Ling Tianyun with slightly narrowed eyes, his eyes didn't seem to be very good, he took a few steps closer to Ling Tianyun, and then he could see Ling Tianyun clearly.
"Visiting relatives, I came to this courtyard a few days ago. Why is there no one here?" Ling Tianyun was shocked, but there was no change in his face. He asked the old man again in a doubtful tone.
.The old man said that no one had lived in this courtyard for a long time, which was obviously not a lie, but he did not understand why the Khitan people used this courtyard as a temporary stronghold.
"Young man, don't lie. I have lived in these streets and alleys for decades. How can I not know every household in these streets and alleys? This courtyard was during the Jin Dynasty.
The owner of this courtyard violated the king's law and his whole family was executed outside the Meridian Gate. Therefore, this courtyard has been empty for ten or twenty years. It is said that ghosts will appear in this courtyard at night. Young man, you'd better leave quickly.
, don't go in, lest you be possessed by ghosts." When the old man saw Ling Tianyun about to dismount, he quickly advised him.
"Thank you, senior, for reminding me. I just heard from the elders in my family that this courtyard belongs to a distant relative of me, so I came to visit." Ling Tianyun explained to the old man hastily.
"It's been ten or twenty years, there's nothing left to visit. Young man, you'd better leave quickly." The old man hurriedly advised Ling Tianyun. His towering figure reminded Ling Tianyun of his grandfather Feng Yuxiu.
, he was not very polite about the other party's kindness, and when he was about to dismount, he held back. He sat on the horse and bowed his hand to the old man.
Ling Tianyun still didn't dismount. He rode towards the other end of the street. He was full of doubts about the old man's words. As for the ghosts, he didn't care too much about those ghosts that haunted the night.
He must be a Khitan spy, otherwise the old man wouldn't have said that this courtyard is often haunted by ghosts.
He walked out of the alley, then found a restaurant and walked up. Naturally, a waiter came to take the horse away from him. When he came to the restaurant, he ordered some food and drinks alone and drank by himself.
Get up. Too many things happened in the past few days, which made him feel caught off guard. He thought about too many things, and also thought about the young man in blue shirt Ye Yinfeng. For some reason, his heart was filled with a faint feeling.
The young man named Ye Yinfeng gave him an indescribable sense of warmth.
The sky above the imperial capital was filled with red blood, as if all the clouds above the imperial capital were burning. Such a spectacular and colorful scenery gave people a strange feeling. Those clouds burning like blood made people unable to help but look at them.
The blood surged wildly, almost as if it was about to burst out of the body. The billowing clouds, like blood-flaming clouds, pressed down towards the imperial capital, and the ignited clouds began to gradually fade.
This is just an ordinary dusk in the warm spring breeze of the imperial capital, and it is also a dusk with a bit of bloodthirsty. The ignited clouds began to change back to their original appearance, but only the red light reflected in the sky was
It lingered for a long time, as if a bloodthirsty nightfall was brewing.
Night has fallen, and sparse stars can be seen in the vast sky, but there is still a thin layer of gauze-like clouds that lingers for a long time. There is silence everywhere, and the pedestrians on the street have long disappeared. It is not because
They didn't like the night in the imperial capital, or there was a strange atmosphere today, which made the pedestrians wandering the streets subconsciously hide.
Ling Tianyun abandoned his horse and ran. His figure flashed from the street and then into the alley. He still wanted to find out the truth tonight. If it is as the old man said, there must be something wrong with this courtyard, but
After that incident, they had long forgotten about this courtyard, and they did not expect that they would have to come here tonight.
Alone, Ling Tianyun didn't have any fear in his heart. He just hoped that he could find something out of this courtyard. With a movement of his feet, he jumped up from the streets like a cheetah and soon arrived.
In front of the courtyard door, he looked around and found nothing suspicious, so he climbed over the wall of the courtyard and entered.
As soon as his feet landed on the ground, the courtyard was still the same as that day, without any change, but there was an unspeakable sense of oppression in the courtyard, like a ferocious beast waiting for prey at the entrance. Ling Tianyun
I squatted in the corner and listened carefully for a while, and found that there were no suspicious sounds in the courtyard.
But he still didn't dare to take it lightly, and took out the Xingze sword. He walked towards the house cautiously, keeping his steps as light as possible without making any sound. The door of the house was closed tightly, and he used
With a pick of the knife, he opened the bolt of the door. With a push of his hand, the door opened with a slight sound.
The room was dark and dark, with only sporadic starlight shining into the room, and he searched the room like a shadow. He found that the furniture in the room was clean, not even a speck of dust stained it.
Above, it can be seen that this house has not been inhabited by anyone for a long time, as the old man said.
It can be seen that this courtyard must be a stronghold of the Khitans. Suppressing the secret joy in his heart, Ling Tianyun looked around the room again, hoping to see some clues from this room. Apart from the furniture in this room, there was nothing.
Despite everything, no clues were found. This made Ling Tianyun very frustrated.
Since there are no clues in this room, someone must come. Ling Tianyun decided to stay here and wait for the Khitans to appear. He believed that this place must be a secret stronghold of the Khitans. If he was lucky enough,
You can wait until someone comes back here.
Sitting alone in the quiet night, Ling Tianyun's long and lingering breath completely hid him. The sword in his hand had already been sheathed. His eyes were slightly closed, and he breathed out his breath slowly.
, he hid himself in the dark night. If there were outsiders in the courtyard, they would not be able to notice that there was anyone hiding in the room.
I don't know how long it took, but the aura in Ling Tianyun's body was full and abundant, and the Mahayana Qi was flowing in his bones. He raised his state of mind to the limit.
There was a slight sound of breaking through the air, and Ling Tianyun, who was sitting alone in the house, was moved in his heart, but he still did not open his eyes, and his ears were tightly listening to all the movements outside the house. It was just his hand holding the sword.
He started to exert more force, and an imperceptible smile appeared on his face.
Listening to the sound of breaking through the sky, it was obvious that the visitor was not alone, there should be four or five people. The visitors were obviously very careful. They stayed outside the courtyard for a few breaths, and then turned over from the courtyard wall.
, after entering the courtyard, they were not in a hurry to enter the house, but a few people walked around in the courtyard.
Hearing the few people walking around, Ling Tianyun's tense heart relaxed. The steps of the people who came were steady, and the breaths exhaled and inhaled from the people's mouths judged that their martial arts realm was not very high. It was obviously just a few.
There were ordinary Khitan spies, but no master came here. Knowing this, Ling Tianyun felt relieved.
As long as no master like Yelu Wuji came, he could rest assured. He was also thinking about how to catch all the incoming attackers without making a huge noise. Just as he was thinking about it, a dull sound came from the courtyard.
There was a loud noise, as if something heavy had been thrown into the courtyard.
"We have made great achievements today. I never thought that Zhao Kuangyin would fall into our hands." The words of a Khitan man came to mind in the courtyard. Although he spoke in Khitan dialect, Ling Tianyun could still understand it. And here we are.
When he said this first sentence, Ling Tianyun was even more horrified. He did not expect that the heavy object that fell to the ground would be a person, and it was his sworn brother Zhao Kuangyin.
"Isn't that right? Who helped us and threw Zhao Kuangyin in front of us without revealing his identity? We didn't even see the people who helped us, but so did the general. Why did he have to send this person here?
, I think it’s better to kill him.”
"What do you know? The general's decision naturally has his own considerations. Don't they Han people often say that the most dangerous place is the safest place? Although this place has been discovered, how could such a waste like Dazhou think that we are still here?
I’m going back here.”
Ling Tianyun was hiding in the room and listening to the conversation of the Khitans in the courtyard. His eyes suddenly opened, and a sharp light filled with strong murderous intent burst out from his eyes.
