At one o'clock in the morning, in the side hall of the Zhonglang Palace on the Ninth Mountain, there was a solemn atmosphere.
"Whoa"
Outside the hall, two figures walked in square steps, holding a black object in one hand, and strode into the hall.
One of them was ugly, with thick hair, a broad back and a face as black as charcoal; the other one was wearing silver chain mail and a white cloak, with a tall figure and the demeanor of a scholarly general.
The people who came were none other than the two recorders and military officers who were formerly under Commander Pei and were now assisting Chen Yuan in defending Jinguan City!
Fan Chou and Gao Yu!
The two men held up a black stone about a foot square in their hands. Their eyes quickly swept across the four people in the hall, and finally fell on the only one in green armor among the three in red armor.
The two of them naturally knew the three cavalrymen of Yun Tiansheng, but this man was unfamiliar to them.
And judging from his seat, this person’s background is not simple, so why is he in Qingjia?
Yun Tiansheng and the other two stood up. Liu Qing stepped forward and spoke quickly, leaning towards Gongsun Yang.
"This is Mr. Gongsun, the general's mouthpiece. This time, I am following the general's order to open the armory and take out an item. Don't lose anything."
Gao Yu and Fan Chou were surprised and suspicious when they saw Liu Qing's solemn tone and the burning eyes of others and the solemn atmosphere in the hall.
Could it be related to the thugs who broke into the Ninth Mountain last night?
"What is it?" The two men looked at each other.
"Regional distribution map of the Hundred Thousand Mountains!"
Gongsun Yang stepped forward.
"Huh?" Fan Chou was surprised, while Gao Yu had some wild thoughts.
There is a lot to say about this thing.
Is Jiu Zhonglang going to counterattack Shiwandashan?
Gongsun Yang, Yun Tiansheng and Liu Qing saw the expressions of the two men, but tacitly did not say anything more.
The fewer people who know about the general's affairs, the better.
I really don't trust the two soldiers!
"The two of us will go open the armory and take it!" Gao Yu was a smart man, so he nodded immediately without asking any questions.
As he spoke, he glanced at Fan Chou, then moved quickly, his feet flashed, and he turned into two streaks of light, one black and one white, and flew out of the hall.
When the two clerks hurriedly went to get the things, Yun Tiansheng's eyebrows suddenly moved.
"Mr. Gongsun!"
"You followed the general from Qingshan County. Now there is a man from Qingshan County on the mountain. He should be an old acquaintance of yours and is also concerned about the general's whereabouts."
"Someone, go get Captain Lian!"
Half a cup of tea later, a figure in red appeared outside the palace, moving as fast as a raging fire.
When Gongsun Yang saw the woman in red, he recalled the time when he first entered Qingshan County. On the Nujiang River, he saw a woman in red riding a horse on the river with a heroic figure.
From then on, the gears of his and Qingshan County's fate began to turn!
The memory of the past overlapped with the red-clothed person who came in at this moment, and I was a little dazed for a moment.
"Miss Lian!"
"Long time no see, how are you?"
Gongsun Yang stroked his beard and raised his hand in a salute.
Lian Nishang, who walked in, was not surprised at all. She was in the backyard and saw everything that had just happened clearly. She returned a salute to the storyteller who was now "famous in Shu."
"Nichang and I haven't seen each other for only a few years, but it feels like a lifetime ago. Do you know where your brother is?"
Gongsun Yang stroked his beard and glanced at Yun Tiansheng.
Yun Tiansheng then told the general the news that he was trapped in the Shiwanda Mountains.
"In fact, the Lord also mentioned Captain Lian in this message. I was planning to send another message to Qingshan County, but I didn't expect you to be here too. That's perfect!
"What did brother say about me?" Lian Nishang's eyebrows immediately raised.
"My Lord said that he had mobilized soldiers from the three passes to rush to the southeast defense line to prepare to resist the demon army that was about to break through the restrictions and wreak havoc in the north. However, an accident suddenly occurred in Qingshan County, leaving the group leaderless."
Gongsun Yang paused for a moment, then looked at Lian Nishang, "So, my lord hopes that you, Captain Lian, will take on the important task and lead the remaining troops to complete my lord's previous deployment!"
"My Lord, you didn't force me!" Gongsun Yang added. This was a heavy burden, but Lian Nishang didn't hesitate at all.
"it is good!"
"Nichang will not let my brother down."
At this moment, Yun Tiansheng and the others could clearly feel that Captain Lian's spirit was instantly concentrated and his pupils were clear.
I feel a bit eager to try it!
At about this time, a sound of breaking air came from outside the palace.
“Found something!”
Two soldiers stepped into the hall, holding a bronze box covered in dust and mud.
It looks quite old. It has been gathering dust in the corner of the Daofusi armory for who knows how many years.
If the armory's catalogue had not always been recorded in detail and this item was not so rare and special, the two of them might have really taken some effort to find it.
"good!"
Gongsun Yang's eyes lit up when he saw the box.
…………
"You said that your martial spirit was directly enveloped by a golden light from the top of the Ninth Mountain and evaporated into nothingness!"
"Yes, Lady Saint!"
In a room in the north of Jinguan City, a burly man with a pointed nose and deep pupils knelt on one knee, his voice weak and trembling.
The man's naked skin was covered with dense black lines, like some kind of tribal totem, with a huge eyeball on it.
At this time, this man lowered his head and spoke, his throat was like a broken bellows, the black lines on his body seemed to melt, peeling off drop by drop, and his breath was rapidly fading.
The whole person is like a melting candle, which will soon run out of oil.
It looks very weird!
And just opposite this man, there was a translucent white curtain, behind which the sound of water could be heard.
At the back was a tub in which an extremely beautiful woman was bathing, the amazing curves of her pale back faintly visible beneath the white gauze curtains.
"What is that golden light?"
The sound was vague in the water, as if it was far away in the horizon, yet it was right in front of us, and extremely unreal.
"I don't know. It might be some powerful restriction of the Ninth Mountain. But I have discovered important information. The identity of the person in the only sedan chair of the escort team was very secretive. Even the soldiers who followed all the way were unaware of it. Could it be the person you are looking for, Saint?" The man was shaking and his voice was very weak.
The voice was the same as the one of the guy who fought with Yun Tiansheng and the other two last night.
"Oh, I said I would wait, but I didn't say anything. This time, I failed. It seems that this Saint Lady still underestimated the Ninth Mountain. The prince of Beiliang is not brave enough. It seems that..."
Behind the white gauze curtain, a soft and charming voice was like a seductive hook, but suddenly, the voice changed and became a little rough and hoarse.
"Wait!"
"What's that coming out of you?"
Suddenly, white smoke came out of the big man who was dripping with "black ink".
Soon, the smoke increased and quickly filled the room.
"puff!"
The big man's pupils widened and flames gushed out of his body from the inside out.
And in the flames, an old voice sounded.
"The Mysterious Sect of Heaven and Earth, slaying demons and binding evil, the mighty gods of all directions, make me natural!"
"My Lord wants to see what you are?"
