Chapter 209 Hexi Corridor, Hexi Corridor!

Gu Qing entered Dali Temple, Gao Yang also walked out of the palace and became a disciple of Sister Yue, a famous female ranger in Chang'an. Li Er actually agreed for the first time. Everyone in the court speculated what a princess would look like if she became a female ranger. Hearing the news that Gu Qing entered Dali Temple, Gao Yang smiled and said to Sister Yue: "That boy deserves to be careless about this princess."

Sister Yue looked at Gao Yang, the girl smiled bitterly and shook her head. The girl looked arrogant and happy, looking forward to seeing Gu Qing.

Wu Mei knew that Gu Qing had entered Dali Temple again, and sighed and said to Di Renjie, "Di Renjie, don't learn from your teacher. Dali Temple every few days."

"This Dali Temple has almost become half his home!" Sun Simiao also regretted that he was not strong enough.

Wu Mei thought about it and thought about the news that Di Renjie told her. Gu Qing entered Dali Temple because of Gao Yang. Gao Yang also walked out of the palace this time and became the disciple of Sister Yue. He moved into the lake building. He spoke to Di Renjie, "Prepare, I will visit Sister Yue and Princess Gao Yang in a few days."

"Students understand." Di Renjie said.

Three days later, Gu Qing was still in the prison. A strange guy came to this prison. The more he looked at him, the more familiar he looked, the madman who was talking about the Hexi Corridor!

He was about to be taken by the jailer to his cell. Gu Qing called the jailer and asked, "Who is he?"

"He is just a madman." The jailer explained: "I don't know what his name is, because I killed several people and was locked up. Originally, this madman just wanted to ask for food, but the man didn't give it to him, so he killed all seven people in the family. His Majesty has approved it. This guy will be executed in the autumn!"

"Gu Qing?!" The madman said to Gu Qing with a sinister smile, "Gu Qing, Gu Qing, go to the Hexi Corridor quickly! Songtsen Gampo is waiting for you!"

"Who are you?" Gu Qing walked out of the cell and asked the madman.

"Hexi Corridor? Hehehehehehehehehehehe!" The madman smiled strangely, and the prison guards beside him were all furry.

Gu Qing picked up his clothes and shouted, "Tell me, who are you!"

"Hehehehe..." He still smiled madly, "It's all karma! Gu Qing, you have to bear this karma yourself. It's your fault that you have killed too many people, and retribution will come to you!"

"Explain it clearly to me!" Gu Qing shouted again.

"Hehehe..." The madman was so funny in the face of Gu Qing's questioning and laughing. Suddenly, his whole body twitched twice and lost movement.

"What's wrong?" The jailer kicked the madman, "Don't pretend to be dead for me, get up quickly."

Gu Qing explored his pulse and breathing, "I'm exhausted, dead."

"Die!" The jailer took a few steps back, "It has nothing to do with me, he died by himself."

"Go and call the coroner." Gu Qing said to the jailer.

"Okay, okay!" The jailer hurriedly left.

Looking at his body, Gu Qing was worried that an inexplicable madman was saying those strange words, and Gu Qing couldn't help but think of the strange old man he had at the beginning.

The coroner came to the scene and watched the madman's body checking. Gu Qing had seen the coroner's name called Long Xinghuo.

"How did he die?" Gu Qing asked.

"There is no obvious trauma." The coroner took off the madman's shirt and found something wrong in his chest. Gu Qing looked at Long Xinghuo's movements, pressing a part of the corpse's chest with his fingers. A metal flash flashed in the center of his chest. Long Xinghuo carefully took out an iron needle as thin as a hair from his chest.

Gu Qing watched the blood-carred iron needle pull out, which was twenty centimeters long enough to penetrate his chest.

"This should have been in his body for a while." Long Xinghuo said.

"What do you mean is that he keeps alive with this needle?" Gu Qing asked.

"I can't understand it either, but I have seen a criminal law in ancient books that insert a needle into the prisoner's chest and the sky spirit cap to control a person's consciousness. As long as the position is not bad, people can live for a while." Long Xinghuo said, "Can the county guard know Loulan?"

"I know." Gu Qing nodded.

"This kind of criminal law is recorded in a lost ancient book in Loulan. It is the first time I have seen it." Long Xinghuo said as he began to check his Tianling Cap, and indeed pulled out an iron needle of the length of a finger from the madman's Tianling Cap. "It is said that this is a kind of evil magic, and I didn't expect to see it."

On the same day, a military report was sent to the court, and the entire court was in full swing. Tubo and Xue Yantuo, the Mobei, joined forces to attack Guanzhong, and the Hexi Corridor and Shuozhou were in full swing.

Fortunately, the national strength has recovered a lot in the years since the Tang Dynasty recuperation, unlike the Tang Dynasty that Yanmen Pass and Songzhou were confident in this battle!

He took action at the same time! It was like a huge rock pressing against Li Er's heart. Yuchi Jingde and Su Dingfang were guarding the Hexi Corridor. Li Er sent British Duke Li Ji to set off an army of 150,000 to Shuozhou with a wave of his sleeve.

Li Er felt heavy when he saw his Tang Dynasty territory. The Hexi Corridor was sandwiched between Xueyantuo and Tubo, and Tuyuhun was also Tuyuhun. After finally establishing Tuyuhun as a triangle link. If Xueyantuo breaks through the pass of Shuozhou and Tubo enters the Hexi Corridor, the strategy that the Tang Dynasty had been operating in the border for a long time would be destroyed. If Xueyantuo and Tubo soldiers merged together, the troops could point directly to Chang'an. This battle could only be won but not lost!

In recent years, the Tang Dynasty had not sent envoys to wander around the countries, there was no movement in the Western Regions, and there was no movement in Nanzhao. But the Tang Dynasty planned to isolated Tubo and Xue Yantuo, who did not care about it, and they also joined forces to attack. From the thirteen letters of state that entered the dynasty, we can see that someone was doing something! Who was it, and it was repeatedly plotted against.

Li Jing, looking at the territory of the Tang Dynasty, was also worried. He not only valued the actions of the Hexi Corridor and Xue Yantuo, but another strange attack. From the thirteen letters of the country entered the dynasty, to the Turks' attack on Yanmen Pass, and to the present, the Tang Dynasty is not afraid of war, but is afraid of someone behind the scenes. Who has such a means to drive Xue Yantuo and Tubo, and can also instruct other countries.

Now there are firearms in the Tang Dynasty, and you can use them to chase them all the way. If Gu Qing had a chance, you would definitely get twice the result with half the effort. Li Jing was hesitant in his heart why he didn't need Gu Qing this time. What concerns did His Majesty have about Gu Qing?

The Tang Dynasty was about to fight again, and this news shocked Chang'an.

That night, another army report was sent to Chang'an. Li Er did not sleep all night. The war in the Hexi Corridor was in urgent need of time and time. Su Dingfang and Yuchi Jingde struggled to hold on.

Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, and Qin Qiong were discussing that they were also not sleeping all night.

"Why don't your Majesty need Gu Qing?" Cheng Yaojin was puzzled, "I heard that Gu Qing has made a sharper firearm."
