Text Chapter 570: The Great Tear in the Valley (I)
"I don't know what else the young man commands." Wen Lun's eyes showed a hint of anxiety, and he instinctively felt a little annoyed at Ye Yinfeng's stopping. He had already explained the matter very clearly, but the young man stopped him. So there was a hint of annoyance in his tone.
"In Xia Ye Yinfeng, I have had several face-to-face friends with Ling Tianyun, but I don't know that General Wen is a subordinate of General Ling of Ling Duo of Baishui Pass?" Ye Yinfeng didn't care about the other party's annoyed words, he said lightly. He had already learned from Ling Tianyun's mouth about the border army guarding the border in White Water City, but he didn't expect that he would meet the Ling family's border army in this wilderness town.
"Wen thanked Ye Gongzi for saving his life." That Wen Lun looked really anxious, he didn't wait for Ye Yinfeng's words to finish and responded urgently, but when he heard Ye Yinfeng's words, he was stunned. A trace of surprise flashed in his eyes, and he didn't seem to believe what Ye Yinfeng said.
"You say, you know my young general, tell me where he is now. My general is now in a critical situation, and mine is also going to Jinyang City to ask for help. That Wen Lun's face showed an excited expression, and he said to Ye Yinfeng incoherently.
"General Wen, don't be impatient, you can tell me in detail, what happened to General Ling Duozhi, and why did the warriors of the Zhong family chase after you?" Ye Yinfeng confirmed the guess in his heart, and he couldn't help but say to the other party. It seems that Ling Duozhi really had an accident, and its mastermind should be the Zhong family, no wonder the people of the Zhong family poured out of the nest, presumably to capture Ling Duozhi. Although he and Ling Tianyun were friends with each other, he had long regarded Ling Tianyun as his best friend, and he would definitely not sit idly by when Ling Duo was killed.
Ye Yinfeng gave Nangong Xianchen beside him an apologetic look, but this fairy-like beauty in Tsing Yi shook her head and said that it didn't matter. As for Qing Aya's situation, they all knew that there was no danger to their lives, and now that Ling Duozhi was in danger, they couldn't ignore it.
Wen Lun eased his emotions, and then began to slowly say all this. In the entire wine shop, there was only Wen Lun's narration, and the other guests in the wine shop had already quietly left while Ye Yinfeng and Wen Lun were talking. They felt that the Zhong family couldn't afford to mess with them, but this pair of young boys and girls were also mysterious and difficult to mess with. And the shopkeeper in this wine shop had a bitter face, he didn't expect such an accident to happen, but after all, he was still a person in this store, so he didn't leave, but timidly hid at the counter of the wine shop and listened to Wen Lun's narration quietly.
Maybe it was because Wen Lun was more emotional, or maybe it was because of his internal injuries again, after he recounted for nearly half an hour, a layer of bloody flush appeared on his face. A violent cough interrupted his narrative, forcing him to pause and pause.
Seeing this, Ye Yinfeng hurriedly asked the shopkeeper to get some water, and then he asked the shopkeeper to get some wine. This Wen Lun is weak and weak, and he must have been chased by the people of the Zhong family and had nowhere to live.
He took a hurried sip of water, and then he poured the jar of wine into his throat suddenly, and his demeanor was full of heroism, which made people feel good. After everything, Wen Lun continued to talk about what he had not said. And Ye Yinfeng didn't interrupt, just listened quietly.
Compared with Ye Yinfeng, Nangong Xianchen was more careful, and in the process of Wen Lun's narration, Nangong Xianchen asked a few extremely critical questions. After Wen Lun finished narrating, the two of them understood, it turned out that the Zhong family's move was aimed at Ling Duozhi, as for why the Zhong family was targeting Ling Duozhi, Wen Lun didn't know, there must be some ulterior conspiracy.
After Ling Duozhi received the edict from the Northern Han Emperor Liu Yu, he handed over all military affairs to his subordinates, and then he himself rushed from Baishui Pass to Jinyang with more than 20 personal soldiers. Unexpectedly, in the middle of the way, they encountered the siege of the Zhong family warriors, and after a fierce battle between Ling Duo's subordinates and the Zhong family warriors, nearly half of them died under the swords of the Zhong family warriors. And Ling Duozhi led the rest of his soldiers to escape with hatred, and they were in a valley at this time.
Because he was already close to Jinyang, Ling Duozhi thought twice, so he sent Wen Lun to Jinyang to ask for support. With Ling Duozhi's connections and relationships, he also had a lot of close friends in Jinyang, and he pinned all his hopes on these close friends in Jinyang City, but unexpectedly, Wen Lun was discovered by the warriors of the Zhong family when he entered and exited the valley. After fleeing and tearing all the way, Wen Lun was already seriously injured, and only with a strong intention did he escape to the vicinity of Xinzhou, and he didn't want to rush directly into this wine shop and fell to the ground.
After hearing this, Ye Yinfeng felt an inexplicable heaviness in his heart, it was not a good thing for Ling Duozhi to be targeted by the Zhong family. And he wanted to know why the Zhong family would target Ling Duozhi. The Northern Han military department and the Zhong family have always been well water and not river water, even if the Zhong family covers the sky in Jinyang City, but the Zhong family's power is difficult to extend to the defenders of the border pass. The Zhong family must have wanted to capture Ling Duozhi, but the purpose was incredible.
"Do you border troops have a grudge against the Zhong family?" Ye Yinfeng couldn't help but ask Wen Lun, he thought that this should not be some grudge or hatred, if the Zhong family used Ling Duozhi to blackmail the Great Zhou to withdraw the army, then this was also one of the purposes, but he vaguely felt that this was not the main reason why the Zhong family targeted Ling Duozhi.
"There are no grievances, the Zhong family has never had any intersection with our border army, and there has never been any grudge. General Ling and the Zhong family have no personal grudges, and our border guards have always been scrupulous in their duties, and there has been no conflict between the border army and the Zhong family. Wen Lun replied directly without even thinking about it.
"Your young general is in Jinyang City now, and the current situation is not optimistic. You still take Ye to General Ling, so as not to make trouble for the Zhong family. Ye Yinfeng still hadn't told Ling Tianyun's situation, and he didn't know how to explain it to the lieutenant general. Ling Tianyun, as the son of the general of the Northern Han Border Pass guarding the city, now became the righteous brother of the Great Zhou Emperor, and also helped the Great Zhou to attack Jinyang City, he didn't know what kind of thoughts this loyal border pass soldier would have in his heart when he heard it.
"Since this is the case, then there is Lao Ye Shaoxia." Wen Lun didn't know why, he trusted this handsome young man very much, he only felt that there was a kind aura flowing from this young man's body, as if he had seen Ling Tianyun. He didn't ask what the strength of this young man was, whether he could save Ling Duozhi, and his intuition was that this young man was worthy of his trust, and this young man was weak in sight, but he felt that this young man also had extraordinary and mysterious strength.
Throwing it to the little two who was hiding at the counter with a bitter face, Ye Yinfeng followed Wen Lun and walked out of the wine shop. It's just that as soon as they came out of the wine shop, they stopped their steps. The group in front blocked them, but it was the warriors of the Zhong family, but this time the number of people blocking them was more, but there were more than a dozen people.
Ye Yinfeng's eyes froze, and he strode to protect Wen Lun and Nangong Xianchen behind him. Among the group of Zhong family warriors who came, there were also a few familiar faces, but they were the people of the Zhong family who had fought with him. That day, he followed Zhong Jianhong's carriage to a mountain col, and he was discovered by Zhong Cangfeng, and he was surrounded by the Zhong family warriors.
"It's you." One of the Zhong family warriors recognized Ye Yinfeng at a glance, his face was not very good-looking, Ye Yinfeng's divine power was still remembered by them that day, and finally Zhong Cangfeng injured Ye Yinfeng, but in the end he escaped. For this seemingly weak young man, there was also a trace of fear in their hearts, but they didn't expect to meet again in this wilderness town.
Zhong Jianhong's face was very calm, there were warriors of the Zhong family standing beside him, and one step ahead was Zhong Cangfeng, the head of the Zhong family at this time. They looked ahead indifferently, it was the exit of a strange rocky valley, they had already sent dozens of Zhong family warriors into the valley, but there was still no information coming, and no Zhong family warrior walked out of this valley.
"That Ling Duozhi is worthy of being my great Han god general, and a dozen or so ordinary border soldiers can actually repel several attacks by my Zhong family warriors." Zhong Cangfeng muttered with a hint of admiration in his eyes, his expression was very flat, and he did not have any anger because of the Zhong family's loss of troops.
"Although Ling Duozhi is not well-known in the rivers and lakes, this person is well versed in the art of war, and even more so. Although the warriors of my Zhong family are superb in martial arts, far better than those border guards, they do not have any rules and formations, and it is normal to suffer some small losses. Zhong Jianhong's eyes flashed, and he said slowly towards Zhong Cangfeng.
"Don't underestimate the people of the world, the military family is also a kind of cultivation, and Ling Duozhi's martial arts cultivation realm can not be underestimated. This person has experienced a hundred battles and killed countless enemies, and his martial arts are self-taught from this battlefield. Although my Zhong family is a family of martial arts cultivators, and they far surpass the border army in martial arts cultivation, but on the battlefield of life and death, they have not gone through such experience, and this time they have suffered some small losses and let them know the cruelty of the battlefield of life and death. ”
"The grandson remembered his grandfather's teachings, but after such a long time, it had been a long time since Wen Lun had escaped, and there was no news from the other warriors. The grandson thought that his grandfather could take matters into his own hands in case of an accident. Zhong Jianhong said respectfully to the old man in cloth.
"Alas, Ling Duozhi is a junior, and it is not in line with the rules of the rivers and lakes to act for his ancestors, doesn't it make the world laugh. Ling Duo is a famous general, and we naturally have to have the respect we deserve, so let the warriors of the Zhong family go. Zhong Cangfeng's face trembled slightly, and a trace of bitterness came out of his eyes. He was already a master of his predecessors, and it was not Ling Duozhi's turn for him to make a personal move, even if he did it himself, he would be reduced to a laughing stock. And his heart was originally on the pursuit of the ultimate in martial arts, and this time it was only to ensure the success of the plan that he agreed to come with Zhong Jianhong.
Zhong Jianhong listened, and he didn't force it again, Zhong Cangfeng was extremely arrogant, and he would definitely not personally deal with a junior. But he was also secretly anxious in his heart, because the Zhong family martial arts cultivator who was sent to chase Wen Lun had not yet returned, and it stands to reason that he wanted to hunt down and kill a deputy general of the border army who had been abolished, and dispatched more than a dozen Zhong family warriors who were not weak in cultivation should be able to capture them. But an hour or two had passed, and there was still no news, which made him secretly anxious.
The sky was slightly dark, the gray clouds were rushing in, and the drizzle was falling non-stop, and the rain revealed an oppressive breath, which made it a little difficult to breathe. The valley was shrouded in thick rain, and in the distance, it seemed as if the mouth of the valley was a hideous beast opening its bloody mouth.
As soon as more than a dozen Zhong family warriors entered the mouth of the valley, they sank into the sea and no news came out. Zhong Jianhong stretched out his palm, and the rain of filamentous muscles fell into his palm, and a cold chill penetrated his body. That plain face finally changed slightly, and with a wave of his hand, more than a dozen fierce Zhong family warriors rushed towards the valley with cold blades.
