Chapter 31 Entering the Village
He led his horse and tied his sword to the city gate, where everyone was already there.
Shang Lang was immediately in front, hanging a gleaming spear, and behind him was a group of cavalry in charge.
Today, the Forbidden Army is divided into the Sixth Army of Beiya and the Sixteenth Guard of Nanya. The former is stationed in the palace and is the emperor's personal army; the latter is stationed in the capital and is under the control of the prime minister. In comparison, the Sixth Army of Beiya is more elite, and its soldiers are basically
It was composed of the sons of nobles, the best of the Sixteenth Guards, and disciples of famous factions. The Zuo Longwu Army was one of the six armies of Bei Ya. It was a cavalry army and could be said to be the leader of the Tang army.
This was the first time Pei Ye saw the Long Wu Army, and he truly and intuitively felt what the world's elite was. Although there were only twenty riders, they were still in an orderly array, with horses and armor, and no one was talking to each other, condensing in silence and solemnity.
A murderous aura as fierce as iron.
"It seems that my guess was wrong. This is a demon." Seeing Pei Ye coming over, Shang Lang sighed with a smile.
Pei Ye still believed that Hei Chi was the real Immortal Hunter, but firstly, he didn't know where this demon tiger came from. Secondly, he didn't know Hei Chi's attitude and whether he was willing to "serve the Tang Dynasty". It was not good.
Unauthorized disclosure.
Pei Ye changed the subject and said, "Why haven't you seen Mr. Zhu?"
"Brother Zhu saw something strange on the way here. He suspected that it was traces of the Zhushi Sect, so he went to search for it himself. Let us come here first." Shang Lang gestured in the direction of Xing Zhi, "Sister Xing Zhi is here.
It won’t take long to send him a message.”
Pei Ye turned around and saw that Xing Zhi had finished writing a small note, put away the pen, put a jade bead tied on her wrist to her mouth, held it in her mouth and blew it, making a clear whistle.
The woman with gentle eyebrows turned around and said: "I exchanged a letter with Senior Brother Zhu this morning. He is going to Xincang Mountain. We just send a letter asking him to come and make peace."
Then he looked at Pei Ye and said, "Young Master Pei, are you sure you want to follow? Don't you have an elderly person at home?"
Pei Ye was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the other party knew about the situation at home. He just nodded and said, "I want to go."
Not long after, a green shadow suddenly appeared in the sky and landed on Xing Zhi's shoulder like an arrow.
This blue bird is full of aura, with rare golden eyes. One of its slender legs is hooped with a delicate gold ring with the word "Xing Zhi" engraved on it, and the other leg is tied with a light and beautiful small satin.
, obviously the owner’s interest.
This is the first time Pei Ye has seen the soul bird so close.
Xing Zhi handed it over, and the blue bird opened its mouth and swallowed the rolled up paper tube, and then shot it into the cloud with a "plop" sound.
"Master Jing, shall we leave now?" the woman turned around and said.
"Master Xing has the final say."
…
Dozens of riders were galloping out of the city, the sound of hooves thundering, and Pei Ye felt safer among them than staying with a single master.
In fact, this team is not short of masters. Although the man named Zhu has not arrived yet, Jing Ziwang is also a master who has actually climbed to the Jade Steps of Xuanmen. Pei Ye fought tooth and nail to kill the enemies of Qisheng. This grandmaster is no better than him.
It takes a lot of effort to kill an ant.
Zhao Bai's letter said that he invited knights from Hefu to come to help. In fact, the people registered in Hefu were not affiliated with the government and were not a force that could be called upon by the state or county at will. It was only because it was legendary that it spread widely and became "powerful" in people's minds.
Just a pronoun.
What's more, its number is very small. Even though the word "Crane Fugitive Book" is often on people's lips, even the games among young children use the identity of "Hefu Hero" as the protagonist, but in fact, this thing is like the legendary night pearl——
Everyone has heard of it, but never seen it or touched it.
The Hefu Book is a list of thousands of people published by the Immortal Platform of the Tang Dynasty for more than 30 years. It has long been regarded as synonymous with the best martial arts by people all over the world. From the wilderness of Mobei to the land of the Tang Dynasty and then to the southern countries, it is not limited to being a master in the military.
, a famous martial arts legend or a descendant of a famous sect, as long as he is strong enough, he will have the opportunity to be listed in the Hefu Xia Book.
There are nearly a million people in the world who are extremely angry, but only 900 people are listed in the Fu list. Therefore, although the He Fu list itself does not place any restrictions on realms, people who have not reached the Eighth Life of the Maishu are not qualified to have a glimpse of their status.
When talking about the Hefu Book, we generally talk about these nine hundred people, who basically represent the highest level of cultivators in the eyes of ordinary people.
The Crane List is far away from ordinary people. Only those in the spiritual field pay attention to it and talk about it. Only the masters who have reached the Jade Level of Xuanmen are qualified to be listed on it, and only three hundred people are listed on it.
Most of them are senior leaders of various sects and famous masters from various countries. There are also a very small number of young geniuses, but they are all top figures who need to look up to.
Although Jing Ziwang is far away from the He Ranking, he is a master after all and is solidly better than most people on the Fu Ranking.
The brightest moment of the day has passed, the sun is setting in the west, the evening wind is gradually picking up, and if you pass through the high forest, the sky will become dark as if it is night.
Everyone was on their way. The deeper they entered the mountain, the narrower the road became. The trees gradually became denser and insects and beasts were common. Only then did they see a few rooftops in the distance.
It's really a small village buried in the mountains.
It was already dusk, but there was no smoke rising in the village. Shang Lang raised his hand and said, "Be careful!"
Yi Peiye thought that this order was completely unnecessary, because these elite knights behind them never slacked off for a moment.
Jing Ziwang in front suddenly raised his hand and reined in his horse slowly. The whole team stopped in an orderly manner as they were not running fast on the mountain road.
"What's wrong?"
Jing Zi looked ahead, and Pei Ye looked along. A wooden cart overturned on the ground, and the animal pulling the cart fell motionless on the ground.
Pei Ye's heart tightened, and he rushed over regardless of etiquette. He turned over and dismounted to check, and found that the dead animal was a donkey. Looking towards the car again, he saw the familiar sack.
Meng Jiao.
People are missing.
The three of them followed up at this time, and Shang Lang said: "What's the matter, Brother Pei?"
Pei Ye said in a serious voice, "He is a friend I met when I was young."
Xing Zhi dismounted, squatted down and gathered his spiritual energy to probe into the donkey's body. After a while, he withdrew his fingers and looked strange.
"What's wrong?"
"This donkey was scared to death."
"..."
"Unfortunately, he encountered that demon tiger here." Jing Ziwang said in a deep voice, pointing to the soft soil next to him, where there were a few light paw prints.
"So big..."
"It is indeed a demon."
"The paw prints are going nowhere and there is no way to trace them."
Jing Ziwang frowned: "Master Xing, don't you have the skills of a warlock? I think it won't be long before the incident occurs, and this person might be saved."
Xing Zhi shook his head: "It has no blood, no flesh, no air, no medium, and cannot be traced."
Jing Ziwang glanced at the footprints for a few times and said in a deep voice: "Then go to the village quickly. After understanding the situation, find this beast and kill it."
Xing Zhi frowned. The strength of a newly born Immortal Hunter or Demon E should be on par with a monk like Jing Ziwang standing on the first jade step of Xuanmen. Jing Ziwang should have no problem sitting guard, but
If you take the initiative to seek a kill, you will inevitably expose your flaws, so you should wait until Senior Brother Zhu arrives.
But after taking a look at his solemn expression, Xing Zhi swallowed her words. After all, they were not close colleagues and subordinates, and senior brother Zhu would probably arrive soon.
Shang Lang patted Pei Ye on the shoulder, and the group mounted their horses again and soon arrived at the entrance of Baizhu Village.
The village was very small, with about sixty or seventy households in total. If more than twenty people had died according to Zhao Bai's letter, it would mean that nearly half of the households in the village were in mourning.
As soon as he entered the village, Pei Ye felt a strong depressive atmosphere. Everything was quiet, as if he was afraid that the slightest movement would disturb him.
