Chapter 32 Jiuding Mountain
After the autumn festival, Gong Yanjun Han refused to take the ill. When he returned, he sent the carriage away and left Shu Ling alone and walked to Jiuding Mountain with him.
Looking north on Jiuding Mountain, you can see the mountain scenery with the Central Plains, but both of them know that in addition to this pleasing scenery, what you hide is an unpredictable danger.
Outside the northern border, there is a danger that even the legendary gods have to set up cages to guard against, but what exactly is still unknown.
Jun Han stood on the mountain peak with his hands in his arms. The night was dark and the stars were dim. There were no lights in the distance. In the dark, the mountains and rivers were dark and the hidden curtains were like stinging animals, which made people feel uneasy.
"I want to enter the northern border before the heavy snow covers the territory. During my absence from the court, please pay more attention to the affairs of the capital."
"What are you doing in the North?" Shu Ling was shocked.
Jun Han rarely reflects his mood on his face, but at this moment he does not hide his sorrow on his eyebrows.
"I've been ignorant for too long, and it's time to find out."
The North Mountain Monster Kingdom, which was terrifying in the past, was just the tip of the iceberg of all the power of the northern border. In just one corner, it was able to make the world tremble if you sneeze, let alone the remaining more complete power.
"Do you think that thing will definitely invade the Central Plains?"
Jun Han sniffed the oncoming wind and said leisurely: "This trend has occurred very early - why do you think Beishan Kingdom appears in the sight of the Central Plains? And you didn't notice that monsters near the North are usually stronger than those in other places?"
This is true.
In the countless battles between the Immortal Gate against several Eastern countries in the past, none of them were more tragic than against Beishan Kingdom.
The battle against Beishan Kingdom hurt the immortal sect and destroyed several famous families in a row, resulting in a great decline in the vitality of the immortal sect that had been standing in the Central Plains for thousands of years. After defeating Beishan Lord, even the defeated generals of the former years - the Eastern countries - could not deal with it.
If the late emperor had not met Jun Han during the Eastern Expedition, the Central Plains would have long since become a demon world.
Although there has been no trouble in the northern border in recent years, such a hidden danger has always made people feel uneasy.
Many years ago, Jun Han also went to the northern border, and left the Ice Rift Valley, and entered the most dangerous snowy ridge alone.
With Jun Han's strength at that time, he could not fully penetrate it, but he could not stand it only when he reached the outside world.
Few people in the world know that the most dangerous thing in the northern border is in addition to the steep terrain and sometimes with dark ice caves ambushed, there is also a place called "Wangyouyuan". There is an ice ridge that is surrounded by ice ridges and the peaks are towering like clouds. People standing outside the ice ridge, and they cannot figure out what the situation is.
There are people living outside the ice ridge in the Youyuan, and those people are also different from the Central Plains.
People living outside Wangyouyuan call themselves "Shouyuan people". Since their ancestors, they have been staying outside Wangyouyuan. There are only a few, but they all have amazing cultivation. Even if the child with a draped bun, they still have a complete spiritual vein.
However, these people were not allowed to step out of the northern border for life. According to themselves, it was because their ancestors committed a crime and were punished by heaven. They were cursed in their bones, and they had evil fire aggregates. Once they left the cold air suppression of Wangyouyuan, the fire poison would attack the heart, burn the bone veins and kill them.
Jun Han is not very good at verifying the truth or falsehood of this theory, but each of them does have an evil fire mark on their shoulders, and even newborn babies must have this dazzling mark.
Moreover, there was indeed a threat hidden in their bodies. Although Jun Han could not explore the spiritual breath, he was particularly sensitive to the pressure of various hidden powers due to his nature.
As early as he entered Hanshan Town, he noticed something, and there was a sense of his familiar pressure everywhere. Later, when he thought about it carefully, he felt that it was very similar to the spirit of the ghost star in the demon-suppressing tower.
However, even the guardians who have lived outside Wangyouyuan for generations cannot explain what power is hidden in the group of cold ridges.
When asked about the "Tianlang Demon King", those people were even more secretive and refused to reveal the secrets in it.
This makes it difficult not to make people feel overly concerned.
At that time, Jun Han had just left Xuntian not yet had the strength he was now. Even if he was curious about Youyuan, he could not get closer. The people of Shuyuan could be within three miles, but he could not stand it if he was five miles away.
Wang Youyuan in the northern border has always been a poisonous sting in his heart. Even if he can't pull it off for a while, he has to find out.
The first time Shu Ling heard the three words "Wang Youyuan" from his mouth, he was immediately accused of suspicion.
"It sounds like, that place must be extremely dangerous."
Jun Han calmed down the worried expression of carelessness and immediately returned to his previous understatement, "Maybe."
"There are too many things in the northern border that are difficult to detect, so I should bring a few more people on this trip."
Jun Han smiled carelessly, "It is safest to bring a whole Tielin Army in the past - I am doing something secretly. Could it be that I have taken sick leave here and started to work hard on the Northland with great fanfare?"
"No matter what, you can't go alone, right? If it really doesn't work, I'll..." He was only halfway through his words, and Jun Han raised his hand to stop him.
"Of course I won't be alone. I have asked Baili Yun to send Gui Wu and Gui Yi over, and then I will let them accompany me."
"Two people?"
“It’s troublesome if you have too many.”
“…”
"When I leave, you can only say that I am sick, lock my courtyard gate, and not let anyone notice the clues - including Chen Zhui. If someone comes to visit during this period, you can let Chen Zhui deal with it."
"It's really okay to leave this to him?"
"As a father-in-law, I, is not allowed to take on a great task as the young master of the General Manager's Mansion?"
“…”
Shu Ling was a little confused about his mentality when Jun Han said this...
"Anyway, you try to leave everything to him about the General's Mansion. It's no big deal if you can handle it. You and Xu Da just need to assist you from the side."
"yes……"
"I will explain the situation to him personally on Bailiyun. After I leave, you communicate with him more frequently. Watch him and don't let him do anything."
"clear……"
"Nianguan always takes Chen to chase those two girls back to Canghai Pavilion - remember, except for you and Baili Yun, no one knows my true situation."
"clear……"
"And..." Jun Han paused and thought for a while, but there seemed to be nothing to explain.
"The Marshal is really not worried about the situation in the court?" Shu Ling asked, and saw that his face had not changed, and then said: "This year, Your Majesty is over twentieth year, and the King of Northern Yan is going to enter the court to meet him."
"Yeah, I know."
"The Marshal is not worried about any troubles in this person? The King of Northern Yan is the heir to the Jinhuo Cavalry of the Dali Imperial Army. Although his combat power is not as good as the Tielin Army, it is the blood of the royal family. Even if he has been away from the imperial capital for many years, his prestige is still no weaker than you and the Prime Minister."
Shu Ling reminded him that, but Jun Han still looked careless and didn't take this matter seriously.
"It's okay. If he wants to make trouble, let him make trouble. Anyway, no one can move around the world. If you can run away, the monk can't run away."
“…”
What it says seems to make sense.
"Besides," Jun Han looked at Youyuan with his hands behind his back, "There are people in the court that are more nervous than me."
But over the years, both Jun Han and Shu Ling can see that the strength of the court has gradually increased and gradually weakened Jun Han's power. This matter is good for the entire court, but it is somewhat unfavorable for Jun Han himself.
It is said that the cunning rabbit dies, the lackeys cook, the birds fly away, and the good bows are hidden. When Jun Han's weight gradually decreases, it is difficult to guarantee that those in the court who were afraid of him in the past will not do anything to him.
Even Shu Ling could see this situation, let alone Jun Han, who has always been extremely cunning.
"Don't worry about too much, just follow the trend."
Shu Ling discovered that Jun Han was hiding deeper and deeper. In the past, he could easily find some real intentions from his expression and behavior, but now he is real and can't figure it out.
“When are you going to set out?”
"It's almost done, you can set off when Gui Wu and Gui Yi arrive here."
“How long does it take to come back?”
"Try not to exceed three months."
Three months... The Marshal was ill for three months as soon as he was ill. After just after encountering "Wen Tianhong", was this adding frost to the Jinshi Academy, or did he want to scare the emperor to death?
Shu Ling sighed, "Why must we hurry before the heavy snow cover?"
"Because it's not easy to cause any chaos in the cold season."
Anyway, no matter what, Jun Han always has his own thoughts, and others often cannot control them, and even more so, he cannot dissuade them.
——
The next day, Yi Chen followed Mr. Zhang to go back to the coach's mansion after morning class. When he entered the door, the housekeeper told him that Jun Han was waiting for him on Jiuding Mountain.
It was still noon, so early, Yi Chen Zhui couldn't think of what his adoptive father asked him to do on the mountain?
If I couldn't figure it out, I could only go away in confusion.
Jiuding Mountain is not very tall - I heard that it is more than half shorter than when I first appeared - in just half an hour, Yi Chen chased to the top of the mountain and saw Jun Han standing on the cliff, with a sword that Yi Chen chased had never seen before.
"Entertainment Father."
Jun Han glanced back briefly, "Come here."
Jun Han's figure is straight at any time, and he is even more steady and elegant when wearing a mysterious robe.
After Mr. Zhang's influence over the years, Yi Chenzhui can see some of the so-called "big situation in the world". The more familiar he looks, the more he feels that his adoptive father is an amazing person.
Although the merger of the two demon tribes is still a somewhat disgusting topic, in Yi Chenzhui's opinion, this is exactly what Jun Han is powerful.
Jun Han looked at the city view in the distance, but asked, "How is this sword?"
Yi Chen looked at the sword with his eyes down and found that the sword was very strange. The sword body was covered with a blue soul, and the whole body was covered with a faint and transparent cold purple sword intent, which was low in murderous aura, but it was very compelling.
"Is this a demon sword?"
Jun Han nodded, "It should be a spiritual sword to be precise." He looked at Yi Chen chasing, "I specially asked Jinshi Academy to fight, it was a good sword."
Jun Han glanced at the heavy sword in his hand, "It's time for you to change the sword."
Yi Chenzhu has grown into a restrained young man with little talk over the years.
He heard Jun Han say this, and was startled first, and then asked with a smile: "Is this what my adoptive father gave me?"
Jun Han smiled and turned around, "Of course, but this is not the only one I want to give you." As he said that, he slightly turned his wrist, and a ball of faint flames ignited from his palm. When he stretched out, he turned into a sharp sword with a gathering of spiritual light in a blink of an eye.
Over the years, Yi Chen has been learning about mortal martial arts. Although he has often been exposed to spiritual power, he has never practiced it yet.
