Hearing the explanation of the shopkeeper, Zhao Kuangyin's eyes shot a solemn light, and his heart had already set off a lot of turbulent waves. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info He didn't expect that the three princes of the Khitan, Yelu Zongheng, would actually appear in this remote Wutai Mountain, and his purpose was unclear, and he directly belonged to the righteous army and himself. He also heard a little about the rumors of the three princes of Na Khitan, but he didn't take Na Yelu Zongheng to heart, but he didn't expect that Na Yelu Zongheng was so bold and brave that he did not hesitate to take risks alone, which had to re-evaluate the three princes of Na Khitan.

"Okay, got it, you go down." Zhao Kuangyin got the information he wanted to get, and waved his hand to send the shopkeeper down. And he was alone in that large and secluded room, his brows tightly locked, and he fell into deep thought. A cold light burst out from his tiger eyes, causing his tiger body to shake, and immediately, the misty tea cup in his hand turned into a cloud of powder in his hand.

But he didn't know it until a scorching stinging pain came from his palm, and Zhao Kuangyin woke up. Looking at the powder of the teacup mixed with tea on the table, a bitter smile appeared on his resolute face. Erasing the lump of powder from the table, he grabbed another teacup and refilled it.

"Mo Xiao Mountain, Yelu Zongheng." Zhao Kuangyin held the teacup in his hand, he took a sip of tea, and then groaned in his mouth. And his frowning eyebrows were even more deeply locked, his eyes flashed with a delicate light, and a look of deep contemplation appeared. The dragon stick was less than a foot away from his hand, and he could easily grasp the long stick in his hand, which was a habit he had cultivated for many years, and the stick would not leave his body.

The cold night was filled with a strange atmosphere, the raging winter wind howled and roared, and the lonely and withered yellow lantern swayed with its unscorching light.

There were bursts of thunderous snoring from the big inn, but it was the thief Ma Chenghui who had been obsessed with it all his life and fell into a deep sleep. Only three rooms were still lit, and the rest were covered in darkness.

At the foot of the mountain in the east of Wutai Mountain, Taiping Town, which was still lively during the day, was covered with a layer of horror in the middle of the night. Because the houses of different heights on both sides of the long street have long been completely untouched and lifeless. Only that one building, the Taiping Inn, still has such a faint number of people. The pitch-colored night that came wildly, and the cold air as cold as a knife began to spread layers of frost and mist, slowly spreading and shrouding towards this Taiping Town.

A rapid sound of horses' hooves from far to near in this quiet night seemed particularly abrupt, and in less than a few breaths, the rapid sound of horses' hooves had resounded in this remote mountain town, and the empty and strange horses' hooves were quickly transmitted into the Taiping Inn. And when the red-faced man who sat quietly and pondered heard the sound of the horse's hooves, he couldn't help but be shocked, and the teacup in his hand was almost crushed by him.

Immediately, a sound of light footsteps came into Zhao Kuangyin's ears, but it was the shopkeeper who rushed downstairs in a hurry, presumably to greet the person who rushed wildly. As for the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, only two people in this Taiping Inn did not hear it, one was the snoring thief Ma Chenghui, and the other was Ling Tianyun, a young man in Xuanyi who was immersed in cultivation. They didn't hear the sound of horses' hooves like thunder, Ling Tianyun was concentrating on the mantra in the Mahayana Heart Sutra, running the pure yang true qi in his body to go crazy for one big week after another.

There was a neighing of horses, and a chaotic sound of footsteps was heard.

Zhao Kuangyin held the teacup tightly, he didn't know that there was no drop of tea in the teapot for a long time, and there were just a few dried tea leaves in the cup. Hearing the chaotic footsteps, he couldn't help but stand up from the chair, and the tiger's body shook slightly, at this time he knew that the person he was waiting for had arrived.

Not long after, the chaotic footsteps sounded in front of Zhao Kuangyin's door, and then a gentle knock on the door also sounded, and Zhao Kuangyin rushed directly behind the door with an arrow, and hit the door at once. Through the faint light, standing in front of the door was a middle-aged man like a mountain tower, but the middle-aged man was covered in blood, obviously experiencing a fierce battle. Behind the middle-aged man were two young men in their twenties, their bodies were also stained with blood, and their bodies exuded strong blood qi.

"Farewell for three years, how is Brother Mo?" When Zhao Kuangyin saw the middle-aged man covered in blood in front of him, a few rays of warm light suddenly shot out of his tiger's eyes. His middle-aged man clenched his fists and said, his words clearly revealing that they knew each other, and it was not just as simple as acquaintance.

"Brother Xian, don't come to harm, the foolish brother is very embarrassed, seeing that the demeanor of the virtuous brother is still the same, the foolish brother is even more emotional." The middle-aged man standing in front of the door showed a bitter look in his eyes, and he also clenched his fists and said to the other party. The middle-aged man's tiger eyes are even more exquisite, and a penetrating light makes people sigh.

"Several, you don't have to be in those complicated things at this time, let's go in and talk." As soon as the indifferent shopkeeper saw the two of them standing in front of the door and behind the door, he immediately said to everyone.

"I'm sorry, it's the little brother who is slow, Brother Mo, please come in." Zhao Kuangyin moved his body away and hurriedly said to the three people standing in front of the door. His gaze just swept from behind the middle-aged man, and he stayed on the two young men with a fierce aura for a while, and secretly praised in his heart at the same time, good man.

"Brother Xian is polite, here should be a foolish brother to do the landlord's suitability, but we were discovered by the Khitans, this is also an extraordinary period, you two brothers don't have to see outside." The middle-aged man who was called Brother Mo by Zhao Kuangyin led the two young men behind him towards the house, and said politely to Zhao Kuangyin as he walked.

Entering the room, the four of them sat in front of a large table. And the shopkeeper picked out the lights and candles in the room, and made the lights bigger, and the light in the room was slightly brighter. After finishing these things, the shopkeeper quietly retreated and closed the open door casually.

For a while, the room was filled with a thick bloody atmosphere and a somewhat dignified atmosphere. There was nothing on the table, but everyone was about to feel a strong feeling of depression coming over them. There was a look of deep concern in their solemn eyes, and for a while, no one spoke.

"Brother Mo, what's the situation?" Zhao Kuangyin faintly had a bad feeling, he broke the silence and asked the middle-aged man. There was an eager light in his eyes, a pair of strong and powerful hands clenched tightly, and the essence of his tiger eyes stared at the bloodstained middle-aged man in front of him.

"Alas, I didn't expect that I, Mo Xiaoshan, would suffer such a big defeat today, and now only the three of us escaped. Our plan to wait for this Wutai Mountain will be devastated, and it will be ruined in one fell swoop. We are ashamed of Guo Dashuai and the young master. Mo Xiaoshan let out a long sigh, his eyes showed a look of decadence, and he didn't see it and spit out the depressed breath in his chest.

"How can it be so serious, isn't it that there are spies in your army, even if the Khitan people can pinch and calculate, it is impossible to find out Brother Mo's hard work for so many years." When Zhao Kuangyin heard this, his face was shocked, this ending was indeed beyond his expectations, he didn't expect that the Guiyi Army hidden in the Wutai Mountains would be destroyed by the Khitans in one day. How could this not make him frightened, and the three of Mo Xiaoshan risked their lives to break out of the encirclement, and there were only three of them in the Guiyi Army in Wutai Mountain.

"Yes, there are indeed spies in our army, but for the time being, we have not found out who it is, and the three of us risked their lives to break out of the encirclement, presumably it is also the trick of Na Yelu. You want me to wait for me to meet up with my brother so that I can clean it up. Therefore, this is by no means a place to stay for a long time, and we will leave temporarily while the Khitan army has not yet encircled. ”

Mo Xiaoshan's face showed a bit of sadness, he had established a strange army in this remote Wutai Mountain, operating here in the name of a bandit, but he was not betrayed by the traitor, resulting in a failure. How can this make him willing, and because he will also affect this generation of famous generals of the Great Zhou Kingdom. He knew that the Guiyi Army and the Zhou Army were bent on recovering the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun, so he decided to meet in this remote Wutai Mountain, but he didn't expect that the outcome would be like this.

"Brother Mo doesn't have to blame himself, presumably the Khitan army has not arrived here so soon for the time being, there are only a few of us, even if the elite division of the Khitan army is forced to come, we may not have a chance to escape. Brother Mo is a little restless, and the younger brother has to wait for someone, and when that person arrives, I will naturally leave as soon as possible. As for our big plan, we have to discuss it again in the future, the imperial capital Bianliang is expected to be turbulent, I am afraid that something big will happen, and we will find a suitable time to make plans after the younger brother returns to the imperial capital. ”

Zhao Kuangyin didn't show any urgency, his calm expression made the lonely man feel relieved. He knew that the other party would not fight a battle that he was not sure of, and since he had already said that there was no danger here for the time being, then their safety would definitely be fine. The heart was slightly wider, and then an irrepressible grief and anger followed, it was the hard work of his own plan for many years, saying that there was no more, even if there was a lot of sweetness in his heart, but he was helpless.

Zhao Kuangyin said a few words of comfort, and he couldn't find any good words to comfort this battle-hardened Guiyi Army general, as for why Guo Huai'an, the young master of the Guiyi Army, didn't appear, he didn't ask. All of this can find out some clues, presumably that the young master Guo got some information and escaped the catastrophe.

The four commanders of the Guiyi Army knew two of them, one was Mo Xiaoshan who shook the world with an iron palm in front of him, and the other was the black lady who was dressed in black all the year round. The other two He brothers, he didn't know and hadn't seen them. Take this awe-inspiring and righteous Mo Xiaoshan as an example, it is also very famous in the rivers and lakes, and the strength of this Guiyi Army is also a little visible. If the Guiyi Army can be co-opted into the allies of the Zhou State, then the plan to recover the Sixteen Prefectures of Yanyun will not be successful.

"Brother Xian doesn't know who else to wait for, so that Brother Xian can take such a big risk to wait, it must be an extraordinary person." After all, Mo Xiaoshan is a brave and good general, although he is sad in his heart, but he is also a person who is resolute and decisive, the strong anger on his face has calmed down, and he asked with a curious look like Zhao Kuangyin.

"Master Huaisu, the presiding abbot of Wutai Mountain Juezen Temple, has some connections with his younger brother. This time, Master Huaisu was invited out of the mountain mainly for the sake of the imperial capital, even if the Khitan elite army came, it would depend on Master Huaisu's face, and he didn't dare to do anything to us. This big brother Mo can rest assured, what he is not sure of, the little brother never does. Zhao Kuangyin replied to the other party with a smile on his face.

"Master Huaisu, isn't that ??????????" As soon as Mo Xiaoshan heard the other party's words, he immediately stood up in surprise and said in surprise. The astonishment on his face was evident, and at this moment his face was full of shock, and he did not finish his words, but shot a blazing light of admiration from his eyes.

"Not bad." Zhao Kuangyin nodded, there was no exaggerated expression on his face, just a little calm. When the other two young men sitting on the side heard the words "Master Huaisu", their faces also showed a surprised expression, and the two big men who had not said a word since they entered the room let out an exclamation of "ah" at the same time.
