The night wind carried the coldness of the remaining snow and blew wildly, the dim light was blurred in the twinkling stars, and the beating bonfire made bursts of explosive sounds. The red fireworks, billowing smoke, and flying sparks were all in the air.
The cold night was particularly dazzling, but the three calm faces were filled with different thoughts. The carriage surrounded by the bonfire exuded a strange aura, which made people feel shuddering.
"Brother Yang thinks too highly of us brothers. Yanzhou is the most prosperous city in Yanyun Sixteenth, and there are many powerful family forces. But my two brothers are weak. Why does Brother Yang think that I am the most prosperous state in Yanzhou?
The brothers can escort you back to the Yang family in Yanzhou smoothly." Ling Tianyun's heart moved slightly, he had already guessed something, but he didn't expect Yang Huang to be so direct.
"You can tell at a glance that the two young heroes are not ordinary people, nor are they ordinary martial arts practitioners like us. There is nothing I can do about it. If the two young heroes have any inconvenience, I will pretend that I have never said anything about it." Yang Huang said.
With a bitter look on his face, he smiled helplessly and replied to Ling Tianyun. Obviously, he had long wanted to make friends, and the real purpose of making friends should be to let Ling Tianyun and the others escort them back to Yanzhou.
"Brother Yang, does anyone in Yunzhou know about the black stone?" Ye Yinfeng asked Yang Huang. He always felt that the thing called coal was weird, and the death of the head of the Yang family must have been...
It has something to do with that thing called coal. The appearance of this thing may cause many disputes. The strange book he read when he was a child also introduced that this thing called coal can emit unimaginable heat when burned.
, when the heat reaches a certain level, even iron will melt. This kind of thing can achieve unexpected effects when used in smelting iron tools.
"This thing is quite common in Yunzhou. No one paid attention to it at first. Later, several young people with unique clothes came. Those young people should not be from Yanyun Sixteenth State. Judging from their appearance, they should be
The people from the Wuyue Kingdom. However, these people are very powerful in martial arts. Each person has a sword, like a swordsman. It seems that they came to Yunzhou just for this thing. As for what they use this thing for, it is unknown.
Yang Huang thought for a while and replied.
"Aren't they all dressed in white, each holding a sword in their hand, and they look very handsome?" Ling Tianyun immediately thought of Yan Longxing. If they were from Wu Yue, they would appear in Yunzhou with swords.
The only ones who are from Cangqiong Sect. In this world, except for Yan Longxing, a person who knows the unknown, few people will pay attention to this kind of ordinary black stone. But another doubt arises in their hearts, Yan Longxing
What do you want this for?
"It is this group of people. There are three or four people here. They are all young people with extraordinary bearing." Yang Huang nodded and replied firmly. "And these people look gentle and gentle, but in reality they are all fierce and ruthless.
, they also killed many people in Yunzhou. Once someone comes into contact with this thing, they will kill the person. Moreover, they are also related to the Khitan people in Yunzhou, but they do not know how many benefits they have given to the Khitan people.
” Then he added.
"Do the Khitans know about this thing?" Ling Tianyun glanced at him and asked Yang Huang. If the Khitans knew the use of this thing, then the strength of the Khitans would be greatly increased. They already haunt the cold wasteland.
, this thing can just sweep away the breath of cold and bitterness. Therefore, he is more cautious about the Khitan people. This thing seems ordinary. Once the true use of this thing is known, the Khitan people will definitely use this thing to create
When weapons of astonishing power arrive, not to mention the Central Plains, even the entire land of China will be ravaged by the Khitans.
"It's certain that the Khitan people don't know about this thing." Yang Huang replied with the same certainty. And his eyes also showed relief, because he knew that Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng had asked so many questions.
It was not that he refused to agree to his request. He knew that the other party would definitely agree to this matter. He knew that with the strength of their group of guards, it would still be difficult to return to Yanzhou.
"How did the head of the Ling family die?" Ling Tianyun finally asked the key question. He felt that the Cangqiong Sect was involved in this matter, so it would not be so simple to let anyone know about the black stone incident in Yunzhou. "A mysterious masked man
We were killed on the spot. The strange thing was that the man did not hit me hard, but let us go. However, on the way back to Yanzhou, we were ambushed again by a group of masked men.
It’s just that that group of masked men was obviously not the same group of masked men who assassinated the head of the family.” Yang Huang answered directly without thinking.
"Were those white-clothed swordsmen who assassinated the head of the Ling family? If it was them, they didn't have to be so mysterious. They could just kill people openly. But the masked man didn't kill you. On your way back,
We encountered another wave of masked men and were ambushed. Do you know the identity of the masked men who ambushed you?" Ling Tianyun then asked Yang Huang while analyzing.
"If we knew, we wouldn't be in such a mess. However, the martial arts of the other wave of masked men are not very good, just about the same as mine. Otherwise, we would not have met you two." Yang Huanglian
A trace of bitterness flashed across his face, and he smiled self-deprecatingly and replied to Ling Tianyun. Obviously, Yang Huang was the main one in this group, and the others did not participate in the conversation between them, and were all focusing on their own duties.
.
"In this case, the two of us agreed, but we will leave after we safely send you back to Yanzhou." Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng exchanged eyes for a while, and then agreed to each other's request. Regarding Ling Tianyun's agreement,
Yang Huang was very happy, as if a big stone had finally fallen from his heart, and he breathed a long sigh of relief. Without any burden, Yang Huang began to talk, slowly telling them about the customs and customs of Yanzhou.
Obviously, Yang Huang and the others were used to having wild meals and camping out, and the fat hare was quickly eaten by them. After the big stone in Yang Huang's heart fell, he fell down next to the bonfire and snored like thunder.
. He seemed to know that everything was safe with Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng by his side, and he even handed everything over to Ling Tianyun and did not even ask Ling Tianyun for his opinion.
Ye Yinfeng looked around and found that the other guards were lying next to the bonfire and snoring at different levels. He couldn't help but feel that there was something strange about this. These guards actually trusted them so much, and they only relied on one face.
It would be a bit far-fetched to conclude that they were chivalrous people based on Yuan. He looked at Ling Tianyun and found that Ling Tianyun's eyes were bright, but he didn't know what he was thinking in his eyes.
A gust of cold wind blew into the valley, causing the bonfire to flicker and almost go out. But after the gust of cold wind, everything returned to normal. In the quiet night, among the mountains and forests,
The mottled shadows and the remaining snow reflected the light of the night. Ling Tianyun stretched out his hand and gestured in the air, then remained motionless, but his eyes kept falling on the tightly wrapped carriage.
Ye Yinfeng knew what word Ling Tianyun wrote, it was "wait", and he also knew what they were waiting for. So Ye Yinfeng gathered all the energy in his body and remained alert and motionless. After a moment or two,
, the bonfire began to weaken, and soon the cold began to spread indiscriminately. The cold in the north was dry and tearing, making people feel like their whole body was being dried out by the cold, even though the remaining snow was still melting.
The water vapor is quickly absorbed by the surrounding air.
A black shadow swept down from the top of the mountain and landed next to the bonfires. The black shadow didn't even look at the guards who were lying on the ground sleeping. He went straight towards the carriage and drove in front of the carriage.
The two horses couldn't help but spit out a stream of white steam from their nostrils. There was a hint of panic in their eyes, and they couldn't stop trampling on the snowy and muddy ground. If it weren't for the two horses tightly holding each other,
Hitched to that carriage, the two horses would surely run away.
Obviously, the patrolling guards did not notice the ghostly black shadow. Their bodies should have been exhausted long ago. They picked up some dry branches from the forest not far away and added them to the almost extinguished tree.
In the bonfire, the bonfire suddenly jumped and started to light up again. The guards seemed to be affected by the warm bonfire, and their bodies supported by their sabers slowly fell down.
The black figure didn't look at the ordinary guards. He didn't even glance at Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng who were sitting by the campfire. He walked straight to the carriage. Through the faint night, the carriage was tightly covered with black cloth.
It was really wrapped. If you want to find out everything in the carriage, you must lift or tear the black cloth. However, the black figure was not in a hurry to tear open the black cloth, but walked around
The carriage turned around and then stood behind the carriage. His back was facing Ye Yinfeng and Ling Tianyun. He seemed not to care about their existence, or perhaps he regarded them as just ordinary people.
's bodyguard.
In the cold night, the exchange of two rays of light finally caught the attention of the black shadow. As soon as the black shadow turned around, he saw Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng, who were still sitting calmly. "There is actually someone who is not asleep, but there is no one."
What, it seems that you two are not from the Yang family. You are not afraid when you see me. This courage is commendable, but there is no prize." The black shadow stopped looking at the tightly wrapped carriage.
Instead, he walked slowly towards Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng.
It was a masked man in black clothes. His whole body was as black as the quiet night. Two sharp rays of light burst out from his eyes. The man's voice was a little low, and there was nothing unique about it.
Obviously, that person didn't take Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng seriously. He just regarded them as ordinary teenagers. That's why he walked towards them so unscrupulously, with a hint of teasing in his eyes.
.
"Brother, aren't you afraid that they will wake up now? There are many of us. Aren't you afraid of being alone?" Compared to Ye Yinfeng, Ling Tianyun is a leader who is afraid of chaos in the world.
, he pressed his sword under his leg, and then said to the man in black with a surprised expression. He was helpless and bored with this unscrupulous man in black. He thought that a master would come, who
What they knew was that the one who came was a martial artist who had not even reached the Xiantian realm. However, the strength of this man in black was not comparable to those of the Yang family guards. Those Yang family guards were still lingering in the outer realm at most.
He didn’t even step into the realm of inner strength.
"It's just them, these few guards of the Yang family. Don't count on them, little boys. Their three-legged cats' martial arts are not worthy of carrying my shoes. But how can you two little boys compete with the people of the Yang family?
Mixed together, the people of the Yang family are not good people. Were you deceived by them? The people of the Yang family have done some shameful things in Yanzhou, but you two boys actually still behaved when you met them.
Living is like smoke rising from your ancestral graves." The teasing expression of the man in black became more and more intense, and he seemed to be interested in Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng.
Hearing the words of the man in black, Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng were slightly shocked. They did not expect that the man in black would actually say something completely different from Yang Huang. This made them feel even more excited.
There was a layer of doubt as to which one of them was talking about panic. Looking at the man in black, it seemed that there was no need to lie to them, but why did Yang Huang want to lie to them? All this seemed to start to exude a strange atmosphere, towards Ling Tianyun and Ye Yinfeng
