Chapter 4 Depressed Fantasy Sky
The plank road was built openly and secretly traveling to Chencang, which was about a large city in front. () Yun Xiao used this place as the most important supply point before leaving the country, as well as a rest base. The team must stay here for three days to reserve sufficient physical strength and allow everyone to meet future challenges.
Goose-feather-like snowflakes floated down sparsely. A thousand black-armored knights were guarding a gorgeous carriage and galloping on the road. Heavy snow fell on their bodies, but the cloak with hats helped a lot. The goggles also played a great role. At least in the wind and snow all over the sky, people could open their eyes to see the road. Yun Xiao was not afraid of getting lost, because there was a compass in his arms. With this thing, it could be unobstructed in both the ice and snow and the desert wastelands.
Finally seeing Chen Cangcheng from afar, Yun Xiao was extremely excited and immediately ordered the team to speed up the journey. Only when he arrived in the city did Yun Xiao feel a little safe.
Chen Cang's prefect has become a snowman. He thought the princess would not come after such heavy snow. But when he saw such heavy snow and could still go back and forth on the road, he knew that the princess was here. Because only the legendary Hou Yun had such a cavalry.
The snow was very heavy. It was already midnight when Tian Fu arrived at Chen Cang. Yun Xiao stood at the top of the city and felt relieved when he saw the long queue.
The prefect Chen Cang was very flattering. Not only did he clear the largest inn in Chen Cang, but he also cleared the prefect's mansion to welcome the "Princess Princess".
The Donghu envoy was arranged by Yun Xiao in the post station. In addition to them, there were also a thousand Yun’s hometown heroes. The leader was the guy named Dai Yu. He was said to be a master of swordsmanship. But no matter how he looked at the weapons in his hand, they didn’t look like swords. Instead, they looked more like swords. What made Ajin and Arno fear the most was that the human-shaped monster also lived with them.
Yulin was arranged by Yun Xiao in the prefect's mansion, where there were also a thousand village heroes. The leader was Canghu with a fierce look on his face, and two groups of sentries were guarding the courtyard where the "princess" was located.
Ajin shook off the snow on his body and walked into the house assigned to them. The charcoal stove had been grown in the house and was very warm. The ice and snow on his eyebrows and beard quickly turned into snow water, flowing down his cheeks. His hair and beard quickly turned into strands, making his brother look very embarrassed.
"Brother, this marquis is really alert. With such heavy snow, I dare to divide the team into two sections. I think this mission may not be easy to complete." Ayu said with some concern.
"If you can't finish it, you have to complete it. Do you dare not to execute the orders of Lord Yue of Zhongchang? Have you forgotten the fate of those people? We must complete this task no matter what. For our lives and for the lives of our families."
"The plan is to let us go to Chen Cang to contact Lao Shun who had arrived earlier, and then he will recommend the Yulin General to us. Isn't Master Yue of Zhongxing fart taking off his pants? Is it necessary to be so careful?"
"He did this to protect the inner man. No one except Lao Shun knows that inner man. We must find a way to get rid of those black armored warriors tomorrow and contact Lao Shun. The secret medicine prepared by the wizard and the inner man's contact must rely on Lao Shun. But how can we get rid of those damn black armored warriors?"
The snow outside the window was rustling. Yun Xiao stood in the room and listened to Huantian's reward. There was only Huantian's voice in the room, and occasionally there were one or two bursts of charcoal fires.
I had a headache, no wonder I didn't find any Yulin contacting the Donghu people all the way. It turned out that those Donghu people didn't know who they were. Another guy named Lao Shun came out. Zhong Xingyue was really meticulous. Even Yun Xiao, who had watched many spy war dramas, felt that this guy had very clever methods.
After all, it was the bad thing about the old man that the Queen Mother. A good talent can only engage in palace battles in the Weiyang Palace. Now, it’s good to go to the Gentiles to do a detailed job.
"They said there were some secret medicines for wizards, and they also went to connect with Lao Shun. But they didn't say how to connect. I waited until they fell asleep before I came back. Nothing should have been missed."
What kind of secret medicine will be? Yun Xiao felt a strong sense of fear of those things that were jumping and jumping, and making things that ghosts dare not eat. The things that the ancients made were mysterious and efficient, and some things were not explained clearly in the science of the 20th century.
"Go and notify Dai Yu and relax your vigilance against the two brothers tomorrow. But don't make it too loose, so that they feel that they have successfully gotten rid of it. Tomorrow, they will follow it quietly, and be sure to understand who Lao Shun is. Also, what is that secret medicine."
Hesitated and slept very late on the night before, and Ajin and Ayu didn't get up until lunch time. After lunch, the two brothers seemed to be wandering leisurely in the street market. The street market was covered in silver after the snow, and the weather was very cold. There were not many people in the street market, and the shops on both sides of the road were closed and there were fewer opens. There were no vendors setting up stalls on the street, but the two brothers were still strolling in great interest.
Sure enough, there were two warriors wearing black armor hanging behind the two brothers. The two brothers looked at each other with a look, and they were all smiling in their hearts. With your outfit, they could be said to be unique in the big man. You are still wearing it and you are looking at it. How stupid is it to be that you can be stared at by you.
The two brothers walked into a tavern, asked for a elegant seat and sat down.
"Boss, if you have good wine and meat, you can get it. It's not bad for you to have any money." A Jin yelled at the top of his voice. The voice was so pleasant that people could hear it half a street, so the two townsmen could naturally hear it. The two townsmen did not make a sound and walked into the restaurant silently. Sitting in a corner, she ordered some wine and food, staring at the door of the private room with her eyes tightly.
After a while, the waiter walked into the private room with his wine and meat. A Jin's rough voice came from inside. "Boss, is there any girl coming to sing songs for us? In this snowy day, it is the most pleasant thing to be able to drink and listen to music. I'll give you this reward, go and help us brothers find two."
The boss kept saying goodbye, and it seemed that he had received a lot of benefits. After a while, the girl from the brothel in the city invited by the shopkeeper. He had all the silk and bamboo instruments, and he started playing and singing after entering the private room.
Seeing this, the two local heroes were relieved and just stared at the door of the Yajian wholeheartedly. After nearly half an hour, the two suddenly felt something was wrong. Ajin and Ayu had always had loud voices, but why didn't they hear their voices for a long time?
The two local heroes looked at each other and walked in, and were prepared to withdraw at any time in the name of walking in the wrong room.
There was no variety show between A Jin and A Yu brothers in the private room, and only the girls from the brothels were playing and singing on their own. Seeing two village heroes coming in, they stopped quickly and looked at them blankly.
"Where are the two people here just now?"
A village man asked anxiously.
"We've gone through the window. We're not lazy, two guards. Since we have collected your money, we'll continue to perform even if no one is there."
A girl in the lead said with courage.
"Uh...what do you mean?" Xiang Yong asked in confusion.
"The two old men said that they were their guards of the Donghu mission. They said they were asking me to wait here to sing songs, and they would come when they had something to do. If I were lazy, I would let the two soldiers send us to the officials. The two soldiers. We didn't dare to be lazy."
The girl in the lead voice was crying, and the envoy was not something that their little prostitutes could afford.
The two local heroes looked at each other and saw three words from each other's eyes. They were fooled.
When Huantian saw the singer enter the restaurant, he knew that the two brothers had the idea of playing. Now the two brothers were absolutely not interested in listening to the song. They quickly turned into the street on the back and squatted outside the wall of a gatehouse, waiting for the two brothers to appear.
Sure enough, not long after, the two brothers popped out of the window. They glanced around and found no Huantian hidden under the doorman.
The two brothers didn't seem to know Chen Cang's road. They kept asking passers-by for a place. Huantian heard from a distance, saying "Chen Cang's prison" and wondered why the two of them were fine to go to the prison. Could it be that Lao Shun was in jail? This is too bizarre.
A Jin and A Yu were inquiring along the way and they really found the Chen Cang Prison, but they did not enter the Prison. Instead, they kept wandering outside the Prison, as if they were looking for someone.
"You two uncles are fine. I am a lonely old man. My son has committed a crime and has no choice but to beg for food here. Please, two uncles, you will be pitiful to me, a few coins to give the old man a full meal."
Huantian saw an old beggar crying and hugging Ajin's thighs. The old beggar probably hadn't washed his face for a long time. His face was dusty, and his beard was still hung on his nose. The clothes on his body were rotten one by one, and a thick layer of mud was applied to his arms exposed outside. The weather was too cold and there was still frost on the mud.
Such beggars are very common. People can do whatever they want when they are hungry. It seems that this old beggar is also very hungry, and there are few people going on the street today. I finally caught someone, but there are no one who doesn’t hold his thighs tightly.
A Jin kicked the old beggar in annoyance, but the old beggar hugged it too tightly. The kick didn't kick away. A Yu was a little angry and kicked the old beggar hard.
The old beggar flipped to the ground, screaming, and never dared to provoke this pair of brothers who had no respect for the elderly.
The two brothers wandered around for a few more times, as if they hadn't waited for anyone. They walked away to the inn in disappointment.
Huantian was confused when he saw it, but he couldn't go to the inn at dawn. He had to go back to the prefect's mansion to report to Yun Xiao.
"Send someone to catch the old beggar right away."
After hearing Huantian's story, Yun Xiao stood up and yelled anxiously.
In order to create a prosperous scene in Chen Cang, the prefect Chen Cang had driven all the beggars in Chen Cang out of the city. The gate of the city was strictly controlled, and no beggar was allowed to enter the city before the princess left. Now, such an old beggar suddenly appeared. Could it be that he flew in?
Huantian also realized at this moment and hurriedly took the people to look for it. But there was no trace of the old beggar. Huantian was so angry that he kicked the big tree beside him. The tree was not doing well, but it hurt Huantian's feet torture.
It's embarrassing, I'll kill birds all my life. Today, I've let such a bird peck at the eyes of such a hometown, and the face is covered with dust. The fucking thing is that I won't let me see my appearance clearly, and my arms are covered with mud, which makes me unable to see that his skin is delicate. This Lao Shun is so cunning that he meets him. Even if he doesn't know whether he is always young or young or male or female. The name of the number one swordsman in Momen is that he has fallen into his home.
Huantian returned to the prefect's mansion dejectedly. Looking at his expression, Yun Xiao knew the result of the matter.
"Not caught?"
Huantian lowered his head and said nothing, his teeth clattered. The willow branches in his hand unconsciously whipped around.
"It's not surprising that I didn't catch it. If I catch it, it means we found the wrong person. You should check that restaurant and that brothel. Although I missed it this time, it's not without gains."
“What gains?”
Huantian asked with wide eyes.
"At least we know that Lao Shun is a cunning guy, and he can disguise. And he is absolutely young, not the old man you mentioned."
