It had been three days since Shang Zhengyu and the two arrived outside the city of Mohuan.

Every day, Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi would go to observe outside the city of Mohuan, but they never found an opportunity to enter the city.

And most importantly, the original dry food on the two of them is running out.

"In two days we will run out of dry food. ”

Wang Yi counted the food on the two of them, frowning.

At this time, it was already late autumn and winter, not to mention the sudden cold weather outside, all kinds of wild fruits and wild meat were basically extinct, and it was difficult for the two to go to the wild to find some food.

Shang Zhengyu sighed: "If it really doesn't work, we will leave this place first, and then find another way." ”

But to be honest, it's already here, and he was almost stopped by someone at the door, and even Shang Zhengyu himself was very unwilling when he said this again.

After a day of waiting, there was still no gain, and as the sun set, the two had no choice but to retreat to the woods outside the city where they were hiding. At this moment, the bright moon hung high and there was a silent darkness around it, and there was no movement except for the occasional birdsong.

But just as they were climbing a small hill, they suddenly saw a sporadic bonfire in the darkness in the distance ahead.

Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi were a little surprised, they must know that they had already observed this area, and there was no one at all.

"Let's go, let's go!"

Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi approached quickly.

"What people!"

Before they got closer, a few loud shouts suddenly stopped Shang Zhengyu and the two, Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi only felt that the back of their heads was numb in an instant, as if they were pointed at by a sharp arrow, and their feet immediately stopped.

In front of him, his identity was still not clear beyond the distant firelight, so Wang Yi replied loudly: "The homeless people in the lower mountains and wilderness, when they see the fire from afar, they come to see it, and there is no malice." ”

Wang Yi shouted loudly, and Shang Zhengyu had already exuded the probing strength of the Heavenly Lan Sutra at this moment, and slowly floated towards the camp of these people.

But in the next moment, Shang Zhengyu was suddenly stunned, because he found that there were actually his own acquaintances among these people!

Shang Zhengyu suddenly laughed loudly and said, "Fire Dragon Hall Master Xu, don't come unharmed!"

Shang Zhengyu's voice suddenly stunned a figure in the camp, Xu Decai thought for a moment, immediately reacted, immediately laughed, pushed away the guards on the side and rushed forward.

"I said Brother Shang, it's really a place in the world where we don't meet, you and I Yanjing say goodbye, I didn't think that now I will see you again in Yongzhou!"

Shang Zhengyu's impression of Xu Decai is actually good, that day in Yanjing, Shang Zhengyu and the three of them were almost cornered, but it was Xu Decai who took the risk to save him, and he did not hesitate to lose hundreds of people to create a chance for the three of them to escape from Yanjing, which alone was enough to make Shang Zhengyu remember his kindness.

Xu Decai laughed and directly invited Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi to the camp, and even took out a jar of wine, and the three of them gathered together, drinking wine and roasting meat, so happy!

"After I left Yanjing, I started to go west, but the road was far away, and I didn't know when I would come to the Central Plains again after this meeting, so I bought a lot of Central Plains specialties along the way, and brought them back to make a lot of money, silver and favors, whether they were given away or sold. ”

Although Xu Decai was smiling, there was some reluctance in his smile.

After all, Xu Decai has been operating in Yanjing for many years and has regarded the Central Plains as half of his hometown. I don't know when I will come back, and there is a sense of reluctance in my words.

Shang Zhengyu took a sip of wine: "Brother Decai, when are you going to come back this time?"

"Maybe not coming back. Xu Decai touched a cup with Wang Yi and drank it all: "This time I go back, His Royal Highness is going to prepare to ascend the throne." ”

"Oh, congratulations!" Shang Zhengyu's face was happy: "Brother Decai has been away from his homeland all these years, and he has endured humiliation and heavy burdens in Yanjing, and he will definitely take this opportunity to ascend to the sky in one step!"

"Hehe, it's not that easy. Xu Decai waved his hand: "The situation in Lan Xiguo is not very peaceful now." ”

"What do you mean?" Shang Zhengyu looked surprised.

Wang Yi interjected: "What Brother Xu said is the true self and the oneness." ”

Xu Decai nodded.

Shang Zhengyu immediately asked, and Wang Yi explained the origin of the True Self Unity Sect.

The Religion of True Self Unity is one of the many folk and native religions in the land of Lanxi, which is an ordinary folk sect that absorbs ordinary people, prays for a good harvest and peace, and acts peacefully.

However, in the past few years, the True-Self Unified Church has suddenly changed its past ways and began to expand its influence, and within a few years, it has evolved from a small sect with only tens of thousands of scattered believers to a large religion with millions of followers, and now it has a faint tendency to become the largest religion in the country!

Originally, they only absorbed ordinary people, but now their followers have spread all over the country, from small peddlers and pawns to large officials and nobles. Even now, even many first- and second-grade court officials have become their followers, which can be said to be in full swing!

"Now that the True Self Unified Sect has a great influence in the Lanxi Kingdom, and it has faintly begun to affect the political situation of the imperial court, His Royal Highness is preparing to take action to rectify it, and I am ready to help when I go back this time. "I love to read

After Xu Decai finished speaking, he looked at Wang Yi with interest, and said with a smile: "Dare to ask where this little brother is, he also knows us a lot about Lan Xiguo." ”

Wang Yi arched his hand: "I am not talented, Kunlun disciple, and the family teacher Yun Shou." ”

"It's actually a disciple of Master Yun! Disrespectful! Disrespectful!" Xu Decai hurriedly got up and bowed respectfully to Wang Yi, and Wang Yi immediately returned the salute.

Xu Decai saw that Shang Zhengyu was a little confused, so he explained a few words, and Shang Zhengyu suddenly realized.

The status of Kunlun in the Western Regions can be described as incomparable, and all the successive princes of the Lanxi Kingdom must go to Kunlun for three years to experience training when they become adults, so Kunlun is an extremely sacred and awe-inspiring place for the entire Lanxi Kingdom.

Shang Zhengyu: "The Western Regions have a vast territory, and there are dozens of small countries in addition to the largest Lanxi Kingdom, could it be that they also respect Kunlun so much?"

Xu Decai nodded: "That's true, Kunlun is the zenith of our Western Regions." ”

............

Early the next morning, Xu Decai's caravan packed up and set off.

Xu De knew that Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi wanted to enter the Western Regions through Mohuan City, and immediately agreed to let the two of them blend into the caravan to enter the Western Regions.

Shang Zhengyu and Wang Yi naturally couldn't show their heads, so they directly lay down at the bottom of the two big empty boxes in the caravan, and Xu Decai also deliberately added a layer of cover to the two of them, and laid some goods on them, so that even the Great Wei soldiers at the city gate couldn't find anything.

It didn't take long for the group to arrive outside the city of Mohuan.

Xu Decai deliberately slapped twice on the outside of the box when he approached the city gate, Shang Zhengyu and Wang Lun immediately understood, and immediately turned from external breathing to internal breathing, and there was no movement at all.

"Next, where did you all come from!"

A captain of the gate guard shouted.

Xu Decai sneered, wiped it on his waist, and immediately took out a token and put it in front of the captain: "I am the royal caravan of Lanxi Kingdom, and I came to the Central Plains to purchase materials on the orders of the king, and you won't let go!"

Lanxi Kingdom is adjacent to Yongzhou, and there are many contacts between the people and the imperial court, so it is not surprising. If it were the caravan of Lan Xiguo in normal times, the Great Wei Army would not investigate it at all, let alone Xu Decai, who could still have a relationship with the royal family!

Xu Decai's expression was arrogant, and he instantly put his aura out! He was the hall master of the Fire Dragon Hall who had been in Yanjing for decades, how could this momentum be blocked by a few border officials, and immediately shocked the little officials at the city gate!

The garrison of the city gate will open the way and let it go.

"Wait!" A loud shout suddenly came from inside the city gate, and the Ximen side immediately stopped everyone's actions and stopped the caravan: "No matter who you are, you must be searched by Great Wei before you can be released!"

"Hmm!" Xu Decai frowned.

Although the two countries are on good terms, because of the business relationship between the people, there is a lot of friction between the Ximen family and Lan Xiguo, which also leads to the fact that although everyone is harmonious on the surface, secretly the Ximen family is not less troublesome for Lan Xiguo.

What's more, it's still this juncture!

However, Xu Decai's momentum did not lose at all, he took a step forward, and looked down at Ximen Fang condescendingly with a sneer: "The Son of Heaven of the Great Wei Dynasty has the right to be exempt from military searches in the trade permit given to me by the Son of Heaven of the Great Wei Dynasty, why, can your Ximen family not listen to the decrees of the Great Wei Dynasty? Or is your Ximen family's heart higher than the sky, and they feel that they are better than the entire Great Wei Dynasty!"

"Don't spew blood! When have I ever said such a thing!" Simon looked gloomy and said angrily: "I am just acting on orders, and all passing personnel must be interrogated, otherwise they will not be released!"

"Oh, I would like to hear whose order you are on? the Emperor of the Great Wei Dynasty, the Prime Minister of the Central Dynasty, or the private order of your Ximen family master?"

Although the four major families are beyond the Great Wei Dynasty, they can't do such a thing on the surface, so Xu Decai just insists on pushing the Ximen family to this top, and watch how the Ximen side justifies!

"No comment!" Ximen Fang gritted his teeth with hatred, but he was also resolute, and immediately waved his hand, and the surrounding Great Wei troops immediately surrounded Xu Decai and the caravan behind him.

"Good boy, I don't believe you dare to touch me. Xu Decai wiped it on his waist again, and took out a token again, but this time it was the royal decree of Prince Jingtan of Lanxi Kingdom!

"I'm Prince Jingtan's person, see which of you dares to move!"

The Great Wei soldiers who had just stepped forward suddenly stopped in unison, and even stepped back and lowered their heads and didn't dare to look at this token!

Prince Jingtan, the only prince of Lanxi Kingdom, the future emperor of Lanxi Kingdom! His people are not ordinary subjects of Lanxi Kingdom! Who dares to move!

As soon as the king order came out, the scene suddenly froze again.

Ximen Fang didn't know what to do now.

"Come with me, I don't believe that anyone dares to stop us, unless he thinks he is bigger than the Great Wei Dynasty!"

Xu Decai meant something, put away the token with a sneer and took the lead towards the city, and the caravan behind him followed, although Ximen Fang gritted his teeth with hatred, but he really didn't have the courage to stop Prince Jingtan!

"Wait, can you listen to me?" Ximen Fu smiled all over his face, but stopped directly in front of the caravan in one step.
