Chapter 402 Evasion is shameful, but useful.
In the reeds, there was a low growl that seemed to be there, and the girl turned her head to hear the call, took a deep look at Xu Fengnian, and flew back into the reeds, disappearing.
"Old Zhou, do you still remember the white fox face by the Chaoting Pavilion?"
Zhou Ji looked at the direction in which the woman was evacuating, and his spiritual sense scanned the surroundings before he breathed a sigh of relief, took out his hands behind his back, and said quietly, "This time it's different."
"Why is it different?" Xu Fengnian counted the beauties with his fingers, from Nangong Pu to Yu Youwei, to the killer girl who had just been let go. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed Zhou Ji clenched his fists and stretched out towards him, and his heart skipped a beat. Jump, subconsciously took two steps back, raised his hands flatteringly, "Hey~ I'm just talking, don't take it seriously."
Zhou Ji gave Xu Fengnian a white look, and opened his fist upwards, revealing a few melon seeds in front of everyone.
The muscles in the corners of Shu shame's eyes twitched slightly, remembering the scene of a group of people eating melon seeds around the carriage in Lingzhou City, the fake smile on his face became a little stiff.
"What's wrong with melon seeds? It doesn't look special?" Xu Fengnian probed to observe, and even picked up one and ate it, "Isn't this the one you had when you were in Qingcheng Mountain? Haven't finished eating yet?"
The breeze blew through the long tassels of the reeds, and the girl brought a black and white giant beast back and forth, tiptoeing and hiding in the bushes to peep.
His eyes fell on Xu Fengnian who was eating melon seeds, and the girl's originally calm and indifferent eyes turned cold in vain.
In order to prevent being discovered, Miss Hehe reached out and patted the back of the giant beast's head, and the two quietly retreated to a foothold more than ten miles away, took out a fresh and tender bamboo pole prepared in advance, and handed it out with a face sinking like water: " Hanhan, are you sure he stole my sunflower?"
The giant beast immediately turned into a cute beast when it saw the bamboo pole. Thinking back to the figure holding the flower pot, it nodded naively, and was about to take the rations when it heard a cold and murderous "hehe~" laughter.
The instinct of the beast to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages made it tremble in fright, and subconsciously wanted to escape, but it was reluctant to part with the bamboo pole in front of it. Its big watery eyes looked at Miss Hehe with grievances, and its forelimbs quietly reached forward, trying to pull The bamboo pole pulled it to his side.
"Co-author, every time you find melon seeds, are you stealing them from little girls?"
Xu Fengnian looked at Zhou Ji dumbfounded, and said with a hand on his forehead, "No wonder you let her go so generously. I thought you had a crush on her?"
"How is that possible~" Zhou Ji waved his hand, and said with a smile: "Although the girl is pretty, she is only so-so. I still have a pursuit for beauty, and I won't be so hungry."
The corner of Xu Fengnian's mouth twitched, but somehow he felt the same way.
After all, the blue bird sweet potato and **** paste in his yard are all beautiful, and he would not just find four crooked melons and split dates from deep mountains and old forests and bring them with him.
After all, this is Qingzhou, the territory of King Jing'an.
In order to avoid further incidents, the convoy reorganized and set off again, heading east along the official road.
After the reed marsh battle outside Xiangfan City, the convoy suffered heavy losses, more than half of the Fengzi Battalion suffered casualties, and Lu Qiantang ran out of fuel. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for those who want to assassinate the son of Beiliang.
Half a month later, the convoy reached a dangerous place, and Zhao Kai, who was following along the way, hid on the nearby cliff, watching the convoy passing by without any intention of intercepting it.
Sitting down cross-legged, he threw a stone to catch it boredly, played for a while, sighed, and said with his head down, "I didn't expect Brother Zhou's strength to reach the sky, and that old monster Li Chungang, how can I kill my brother-in-law? It's too difficult." Right~?"
At this moment, another group of cavalry caught up from behind. Zhao Kai heard the disorder of horseshoes and thought it was King Jingan who sent Qingzhou troops to surround and kill Xu Fengnian at Hulukou.
He raised his head happily, and the anticipation that had just lit up in his eyes dimmed. He threw the stone on the ground hard, and only wanted to scold mmp in his heart.
"This is Qingzhou! Why did Chu Lushan come here?!"
The assassination, which was already impossible to do, is now more difficult.
Thinking that Crazy Chu will replace Feng Ziying's escort, Zhao Kai became more and more depressed.
"Chu Lushan will not accompany you."
As if seeing through Zhao Kai's worries, Han Diaosi walked slowly from the cliff and said calmly.
"Master?"
Zhao Kai heard the voice of Han Diao Temple, as if he had a backbone, he got up from the ground inside, showing an excited expression.
Han Diaosi closed his eyes slightly, looked down at the convoy down the mountain, his eyes fell on the hundreds of cavalry accompanying him, and said in a deep voice: "Xu Xiao is still in the capital now, it is already time for Chu Lushan to defy the imperial court's decree and lead his troops to leave Beiliang without authorization." Big taboo, I will never go with Xu Fengnian."
Zhao Kai hesitated and said: "Xu Fengnian is escorted by a master, can I ask the father of the master to do it himself?"
Han Diaosi shook his head and said in a deep voice, "I can't show my face."
"If you don't take action, who else can kill Xu Fengnian from Li Chungang?" Zhao Kai was brought up by Han Diao Temple since he was a child, and he has incomparable trust and confidence in this master.
In his opinion, although Li Chungang was known as the sword **** fifty years ago, but now that he has lost an arm and looks sloppy, he is no match for the master.
"Even if I make a move, I may not be able to defeat Li Chungang. What's more, there is a young man named Zhou Ji beside him." Han Diaosi moved his eyes to the carriage, and said in a deep voice: "The news of the Jing'an Palace has reached the capital. This person's strength is definitely beyond ordinary celestial phenomena, and it is not easy to kill him."
"Ah? Then what should we do?" Zhao Kai looked at the master in surprise, confirming that he was not self-effacing, and couldn't help but said with a little dejection: "Now Fu Jiang's red armor has been destroyed, but only one of Xu Fengnian's has been injured. Famous groom."
Han Diaosi said quietly, "Let's go to Longhu Mountain."
"Longhu Mountain?" Zhao Kai asked suspiciously, "Looking for the Four Heavenly Masters of Dragon and Tiger?"
"Go to the back mountain of Longhu Mountain, look for fishermen by the bottomless pool, if you want to face Li Chungang, you can only rely on this person." Han Diaosi raised his head and looked at the stratus clouds in the distance, and said in a deep voice: "His name is Zhao Huangchao, and You use the same 'Zhao' in your name."
"Royal family." Zhao Kai knew it in his heart.
Bei Liang is the confidant of the Liyang royal family after all. From this point of view, this hidden royal family should take action.
Zhao Kai nodded, suddenly thought of another matter, and asked, "What about Zhou Ji? He crossed more than ten miles to hurt people with flying swords, and he was able to summon heavenly lightning to kill Wang Mingyin. I am afraid that he is about to reach the realm of a land fairy. How can he solve it?" ?”
Han Diaosi was silent for a moment, revealing a tangled look, his original self-confidence disappeared calmly, he filtered all the experts he could invite in his mind, shook his head, and said in a deep voice: "When you find the fisherman, tell him the information He, he will help you deal with it."
"Master, then you." Zhao Kaiben wanted to ask Han Diao Temple if he could go to Longhu Mountain with him.
Dreaming about the day when Zhao Kai ascended to the throne in the future, a smile finally appeared on Han Diaosi's originally sinister face.
Only in this way can he be worthy of his mother, right?
Zhao Kai didn't know this, but he knew that everything Master did was for him to succeed to the throne, lowered his head and looked down, and said sincerely, "Thank you, Master, for your hard work."
Han Diaosi nodded in satisfaction, and looked at the carriage with murderous intent again, "All plans must start with Xu Fengnian's death."
"I understand." Zhao Kai's gaze also became firm, his expression serious, and he said murderously, "This brother-in-law must die!"
Below the cliff.
Zhou Ji looked at Lu Qiantang who was sitting in a corner of the carriage with some unease. No, it should be Lin Tanhua.
Now he has lost both energy and blood, his appearance looks young, but in fact he is exhausted, like an old man in his dying years, who can no longer use the Chixia Sword Art.
Shu shyly raised the curtain of the car and bowed his hands to Zhou Ji, respectfully said: "Young master, General Chu is here."
Zhou Ji nodded slightly, raised his hand to drive mana to wrap Lin Tanhua in it, and floated outside the carriage.
Perhaps because he heard the rumors about the reeds outside Xiangfan City, Chu Lushan’s attitude towards Zhou Ji became much more respectful. He patted his chest and thanked him, saying that when he returned to Lingzhou City, he would definitely thank him in return.
Yannu camp came and went in a hurry, after the smoke and dust billowed, only the convoy was left in a blink of an eye.
Xu Fengnian swung his sleeves, brushed away the dust in front of him, and said with a gloomy expression, "Lu Qiu'er's arrival was too coincidental, I thought I didn't choose the path Xu Xiao gave me, and in the end my every move was within his expectations. "
Zhou Ji raised the curtain of the car and said with a smile: "Don't think so much, your father just likes to play chess casually. From the moment you leave Qingcheng Mountain, you can estimate the time and use the eagle to send a message. You can catch up with the convoy before it leaves Qingzhou. We, this is not some great calculation.
Besides, even if Chu Lushan did not come to meet Wang Linquan, the Wang family could return to Beiliang safely, but there was an extra insurance. "
When the dust settled, Xu Fengnian smiled, swept away the confusion in his heart, and said with a smile: "Forget it, let's not talk about it, after leaving Qingzhou, it is Jiangnan Road, and my eldest sister is in Yangcheng, Yangzhou. I think I will see you soon." She immediately felt much happier."
After traveling for more than a month, the convoy passed through Yuzhou and went straight to Jiangnan Road without stopping.
During this period of time, the massacre outside Xiangfan City spread throughout Liyang.
Zhou Jilei killed Wang Mingyin, gaining a great reputation. On the way, there will often be heroes from the rivers and lakes who come to challenge him, trying to gain fame with their lives.
And these so-called 'masters' Zhou Ji were all thrown to Xu Fengnian to deal with. It happened that he was too late to learn martial arts.
As long as you can't be beaten to death, you will be beaten to death.
In the end, before the convoy reached Yangcheng, the rumors of someone from Beiliang kicking the gymnasium had already replaced the old news of the robbery outside Xiangfan City and spread all over the south of the Yangtze River.
Xu Fengnian was miserable about this, so he had to pull Zhou Ji to ask for help.
Zhou Ji suppressed his smile and joked: "The next time someone challenges you, you don't have to hold back, just kill him. If you kill him all the way from Jiangxin County to Yangcheng, no one would dare to challenge you?"
Xu Fengnian rolled his eyes at Zhou Ji, pulled out Xiudong, and handed it over, "Why don't you come?"
Zhou Ji pressed the back of the knife with his fingers, and gently pushed it back, "We've known each other for so long, am I the kind of person who wants to kill?"
"That's exactly what I said." Xu Fengnian blocked the door of the carriage and said shamelessly, "Anyway, this is the trouble you caused, and you have to help me find a way to solve it."
"Well, usually when I encounter trouble, the first reaction is to run away. After all, although running away is shameful, it is very useful." Zhou Ji said with a smile. City, won’t you be able to avoid trouble like this?”
Xu Fengnian's eyes lit up, and he immediately agreed.
With Li Chungang in the convoy, safety is naturally not an issue.
Ning Emei who came here wanted to be with Xu Fengnian, but had to stay to deal with these Jiangnan warriors, so only Zhou Ji and Xu Fengnian left the team quietly and rushed towards Yangcheng.
Xu Fengnian was eager to see the elder sister, and when he really waited for the first time, he rushed to the horse and arrived at Yangcheng, which is known as the place where the world's talents gather, two days earlier than expected.
Xu Fengnian had never been to Yangcheng before, and the journey was full of dust and dust. After entering the city, the two found a restaurant to rest and inquire about the way to Lu's house.
The style of writing in Jiangnan is prevalent, and there are two very strong atmospheres of clear talk and aides. Speaking of people's words, the scholars here like to point out the country and talk about current affairs.
The business of the restaurant is very good. The waiter led the two of them to sit down on the second floor. As soon as they were seated, they heard some not-so-quiet whispers coming from the partition beside the screen.
Xu Fengnian asked the staff to get some of the restaurant's specialty wine and dishes, and asked about the location of Lu's house by the way. Zhou Ji frowned slightly, reached out to stop Xu Fengnian from pouring the wine, and turned to look at the guests at another table behind the screen.
Xu Fengnian couldn't help showing doubts. He thought Zhou Ji wasn't going to drink, but when he was about to speak, he noticed that the discussion coming from behind the screen was related to him and his elder sister.
". After all, he is a barbarian from Beiliang. He never forgets to be brave and ruthless wherever he goes."
"That's right, this pair of siblings, one is ignorant, the other is shameless, as expected, all the people from one place are the same kind of people~"
"I heard people say that the widow was slapped by Mr. Chengzhai's wife, and even laughed after the slap."
"Good fan! I heard that Mr. Chengzhai's wife called Xu Zhihu a two-legged incense burner. Everyone in the capital knows about it."
Xu Fengnian's eyes showed a cold light, his face was gloomy, and he was about to get up while clenching the wine glass in his hand, but he felt an invisible force passing by his eyes.
Zhou Ji turned over the wine cup and put it on the table, the screen was torn from it with a bang, and the table case and the dishes on the table were all split in half.
The two people sitting on the left and right sides of the table were embarrassed by Beng Fei's bowls and dishes, but the person facing the screen had his clothes torn apart by the invisible sword energy, and sat naked on the spot, As if frightened silly.
"Ah~!" The sudden change caused screams from all around, Zhou Ji popped out two magic powers from his fingertips, tied them in the air, pulled them in front of him, and signaled Xu Fengnian to deal with them.
Xu Fengnian pulled out Xiudongchunlei with a groan, and inserted it in front of the two of them without hesitation, gritted his teeth, and said in a hateful voice: "Tell me about the Lu family?"
