Zhang Zhongjun took 98 ashigaru stunned people on the avenue from early morning to morning, from morning to noon, from noon to afternoon, and then to evening.

It can be said that he is looking through the eyes, but in addition to seeing the caravan passing up and down rapidly, he did not see a single army, whether it was an army from Zijin City or an army from Boyang Town, he did not see a single one.

This made everyone, including Zhang Zhongjun, a little stunned, Boyang Town did not send any more troops, Zhang Zhongjun could understand, because the crypt source was about to explode, and Boyang Town's attention was focused on this, so it was impossible to send troops to chase and kill.

And it's strange that Zijin County didn't send reinforcements, it stands to reason, even if you don't believe in Ashigaru's report, but this is also a warning from a person in your own system, why should you send someone to check it, why didn't you react at all?

This is the possibility of a rebellion by the martial arts family of a town, but the Zichuan family didn't react at all? So slow, how did the Zichuan family rise from the village lord to the county lord in five years?

It's just that no matter how Zhang Zhongjun and the others guessed, the Zichuan family did not send a single soldier, so Zhang Zhongjun and the others were stunned on the side of the road.

Well, let's talk about it here, Zhang Zhongjun and the others were waiting on the side of the road, and they must have encountered the caravan of Takegami Muraki leaving Boyang Town, but because the caravan was extremely fast, it was impossible for either Zhang Zhongjun or Takegami Muraki to see each other, so the two missed it.

Zhang Zhongjun was ready to use military qi directly to return to Zijin County, but was stopped by the team leaders.

"What's going on?" Zhang Zhongjun asked in amazement.

"My lord, your mission deadline has not yet arrived, and we can't go back to Zijin County directly, otherwise your mission will be considered a failure and you will need to accept punishment. The team leaders said bitterly.

"Well, we have found out that Meiboyang Town has rebelled now, can't we rush back to report the news?" Zhang Zhongjun asked in amazement.

"We have already sent a messenger, unless you are ready to send another messenger, otherwise we can only wait for the first messenger to bring an accurate reply, and we can act according to the reply, otherwise either the mission time is up, or the pursuit of Boyang Town will chase after us, otherwise we will not be able to return to Zijin County." The squad leaders said with a wry smile.

"What? We still have to chase after the soldiers? Didn't we fight with the soldiers of Boyang Town before? Isn't this already sure that they are against us? We still have to be subject to so many restrictions?" Zhang Zhongjun asked a little confused.

"My lord, this kind of conflict is really not a rebellion, don't say that they are affiliated families of their own family, and the attack on their own army is not considered a rebellion, even if the retainers of this family attack each other, it is not a rebellion. It can be said that as long as the flag is not clearly erected to announce the separation from the family, the rest of the fights and killings under the same banner have nothing to do with rebellion. The team leaders looked at Zhang Zhongjun with a puzzled look and explained, as if to say, you don't know such customs?

He meowed, Zhang Zhongjun secretly scolded himself, he really didn't know such a custom, his own affiliated family attacked his direct soldiers, as long as people still hung their own banners, it was not considered a rebellion?

This is the private soldier's own, the retainer of the retainer is not my retainer, and the lord of the lord is not my lord's true meaning?

Seeing that Zhang Zhongjun finally understood, several squad leaders couldn't help but ask, "My lord, what should we do now?"

The captain of the squad subconsciously said, "Do you want to send someone back to report again?" But as soon as this was said, he himself shook his head and vetoed it.

It's very simple, go back to report the news, you need to return to the city order to rush back as soon as possible, but this time the city order is gone, you really have to send someone to walk back, the task deadline has already been reached, and the whole army can go back.

Zhang Zhongjun sighed: "The return to the city token is gone, now send someone back, it is better to wait for us to hurry up with military qi, as long as we enter Zijin County after the mission deadline is over, it will not be considered a violation of the mission restrictions, right?"

When everyone heard this, they all subconsciously shook their heads and said, "No, but it's best not to get too close to Zijin County, otherwise you will be destroyed on charges of conspiracy." ”

Zhang Zhongjun nodded, there are still eight days before the mission deadline, and the task deadline has not yet arrived, and if he rushes back, he will disobey the order and there will be big problems. However, as long as the mission deadline is reached, then you can return to the city. Damn, I feel like the guys in this world are too dogmatic. But it's okay for your own retainers to fight each other, so it's normal to have a dogma, right?

Of course, it's not that you can't rush back early, but you have to have an order from above, or when you're being chased by the enemy, you can do it.

But it's a pity that there is no order from above, and the enemy is not chasing after them, so I really don't know what to do.

Seeing that the morale was a little low, Zhang Zhongjun directly decided: "Let's just use the military spirit to rush back, walk slowly, and then go down to hunt, let's get through the mission deadline, and then go back to the county to see what the situation is." ”

Everyone looked at each other, and had to nod, now the top did not send anyone over, and Boyang Town did not send pursuers, really only go slowly like this, and when the task time is up, go back and see what is going on.

So everyone formed a military formation again, this time not in a hurry, but directly down the road section, rushing into the dense forest under the roadbed to hunt.

Well, because most of this world is a wilderness that humans can't develop, so there are really not too many wild things, and after a while, when Zhang Zhongjun and they returned to the roadbed, they already had a prey in their hands, or a rabbit, or a vegetarian animal such as pheasant.

And Zhang Zhongjun also pretended to have prepared a fire salt or something, and conjured it out of the storage ring. Although Zhang Zhongjun can directly purchase a large number of materials through the exchange, he will not lack anything to live on this road for a few years. But if such an ability can not be exposed, it will not be exposed.

Anyway, it was just an eight-day rest on this road, and there were a lot of wild things in the wilderness under the roadbed, as well as rivers, and there was food and drink, and the eight days would soon pass.

So Zhang Zhongjun and the others spent most of the day marching quickly with their legs wrapped in military energy, and the rest of the time was spent hunting, lighting fires, cooking and resting. They all look at the distance and time to act, after all, it is impossible to run back to Zijin County so early.

When the eighth day came, everyone realized that they were going home, and they were all in good spirits, and Zhang Zhongjun was about to use his military qi to rush back to Zijin County in one go, when suddenly a dazzling golden pillar of light appeared in the sky of Boyang Town, and at the moment of seeing this golden pillar of light, Zhang Zhongjun also realized under the effect of an inexplicable force that he had invested in the source of the crypt.
