Chapter 272 Assassin Sequence, Wuhou Jishengtu! Heaven and Earth Enlightenment,(2/2)
The being known as "The Leader" was silent for a long time before speaking:
"That's fine."
"It's most appropriate for him to handle matters concerning the Assassin lineage."
…………
Tens of thousands of miles away.
Liangzhou.
The Family Planning Tu came to Dunhuang County to perform a mission. His originally careless face suddenly shook slightly, and his mood suddenly became depressed, as if he had lost something extremely important.
"What happened?"
The Family Planning Tu Leng had a sullen expression on his face, intent on investigating, but business was pressing at the moment, so he had no choice but to put aside his confusion and quickly run towards the location of the Blood Turban Army.
It was also at this time.
The air vibrated, and next to the ears of Family Planning, a whisper condensed:
"You disciple, Jiang Menjiao, is dead."
Ji Shengtu was stunned for a moment, then realized the reason for his depressed mood and said coldly:
"Who killed him?"
"This person is called Jiang Chen."
"Okay, when this happens, it's time for this person to die!"
Jisheng Tu's face was covered with frost, and some sharp sword energy burst out from his fingertips unconsciously, and a deep crack several feet long opened in the ground instantly.
If this kind of destructive power were applied to an ordinary general, one blow would be enough to kill him instantly!
The air shook, and the whisper continued: "I have ordered Wu Changsheng to find him to be reincarnated as a soul boy. I believe that in this life, he will grow much faster."
Family Planning Tu showed an expression of half surprise and half joy:
"Master Cult Leader, Men Jiao, have you met the standards of a reincarnated soul?"
The leader calmly replied:
"Well, before he died, he successfully understood the fusion of man and sword. He can be regarded as a talent and can help our clan escape from the sea of suffering."
After hearing this, Jisheng Tu's face showed a trace of solemnity:
"Menjiao himself is not weak in strength, and he has understood the secret of the fusion of man and sword. It seems that the thief named Jiang Chen's strength should not be underestimated!"
…………
The sun sets in the west.
Jiang Chen rode the old green bull upside down and quickly traveled through the Bailongdui Desert.
The salt-alkali layer on the ground is so deep that almost no grass grows. The few tenacious greens not only fail to bring vitality to this desert, but make people feel that this place is cruel and dead.
But the good thing is——
It is only a few dozen miles away from the legendary Yumen Pass.
"Old Niu, don't move around here. I'll go and come back."
Jiang Chen got off the cow and decided to approach on foot. After all, although the old green cow was protected by rituals, it was impossible to escape the powerful eyes of Wuhou.
"Moo~moo~"
Old Qingniu barked twice, his eyes filled with worry.
Jiang Chen smiled, casually took out more than ten kilograms of bean cakes and two bags of water from the storage bag, and reminded with a chuckle:
"It's not easy for plants and trees that can grow in saline-alkali rock formations. They are competing with the sky for survival. You greedy guy, don't eat them."
"Moo~moo~"
The old green bull called twice more, but when it looked up, it found that there was no one in front of it, and Jiang Chen had disappeared without a trace.
The next moment.
Jiang Chen had appeared in front of Yumen Pass. When he looked up, he saw an earth-colored city fortress with rolling mountains on both sides. It looked like an isolated city, standing alone at the end of Kyushu...
Shining brightly under the setting sun!
As the poem says:
"Far above the Yellow River, among the white clouds, there is an isolated city called Wanren Mountain."
But actually——
There is no Yellow River outside the pass, only long stretches of yellow sand.
The ancient book "Ji Yi Ji" published in the fourth year of Changqing's reign in the Tang Dynasty contains the words: "The yellow sand is far above the white clouds, and there is an isolated city on the Wanren Mountain. Why does the Qiang flute blame the willows? The spring breeze does not blow..."
Whether in this life or in his previous life, this was the first time Jiang Chen came here, an ancient border town that has been praised highly by countless literati.
Yumen Pass!
The starting point of the Silk Road was also the first stop of the Qingzhou Army's return to Kyushu.
"So--"
"Where's that thief Liu Chuanzhi!?"
Jiang Chen raised his eyes and looked around.
