Tuhan limped closer, reached out and touched the package on the horse's back, and said in a low voice: "Don't eat the dry food that the sect gave you, it may not be clean! In addition, remember that after leaving here, find an opportunity to leave the county lord and his party immediately, find another place for yourself, don't come back, go as far as possible, before you have the ability to protect yourself, it is best to let the people of the Shangqing Sect never find you." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoDon't mention your relationship with the boss to anyone, or you'll get killed, understand? ”

Niu Youdao heard the deep meaning of his words, and said with a smile: "I have no power to restrain the chicken, you let me go alone, where can I go?"

Tuhan was furious, and pulled his shirt, the already hideous face became even more hideous, and even the beard seemed to be shaking at the roots, "I, you don't come to this set, and I got drunk and put a lot of words out of my mouth, including doubts about cultivation, and I have no power to tie the chicken? I don't know that you have been secretly cultivating? I don't care what your origin is, since Uncle Dongguo can accept you as an apprentice, I don't want to know too much else." ”

"So you've been pretending to be drunk!" Niu Youdao smiled.

"If you don't want to die, do as I say. Tuhan snorted coldly, turned around and left.

Niu Youdao shouted: "If the people of the Shangqing Sect are staring at me, how can I protect myself?"

Tuhan paused, turned around again, looked around, and said in a low voice: "If this situation really happens, you will find a way to go to the Demon Ridge to find a person named Zhao Xiongge, he is your master's junior brother, he is regarded as a shame by the Shangqing Sect, and he was expelled from the Shangqing Sect in his early years, but his strength is extraordinary, after you find him, you can naturally prove your identity with the talisman on your body, he will protect you, by his side, the Shangqing Sect will not dare to touch you." ”

"Demon Ridge... Zhao Xiongge..."Niu Youdao silently recited a few words and wrote them down, and then said strangely: "Shangqing Sect wants to be unfavorable to me, I am not surprised at all, what do you mean by you letting me leave the county lord's party, is it true that the county lord invited me out of the mountain to harm me?"

Tuhan sneered, "Do you really think that the county lord has a high status and can enjoy the glory and wealth if he goes?"

Niu Youdao had long doubts about this, but on the surface, he spread his hands and said: "Isn't it? Ning Wang Shang Jian Bogui is the great Sima of the current dynasty, ranked as the third duke, and he is a first-class magnate in the Yan Kingdom, and he can still get less glory and wealth with them?"

Tu Han snorted: "Have your sweet dreams, King Ning died five years ago, and it should be about the same as the time when Uncle Dongguo and the previous head of the sect had an accident, and the sect suspected whether there was any connection between the deaths of the three people, but they didn't dare to announce it to the public." In addition to this daughter, King Ning also has a son named Shang Chaozong, which you should already know. What you don't know is that Shang Jianbo's ideas when he was alive were more extreme, infringing on the interests of the monks in the world, and it is said that the emperor was dissatisfied with him. Let me tell you this, because of Shang Jianbo, his son Shang Chaozong has also been affected, and I am afraid that someone does not want to give him a way to live. ”

"Oh!" Niu Youdao understood, "I will be implicated if I follow him, is that what you mean?"

"It's good to know. ”

"The Shangqing Sect wants me to die, doesn't it?"

"Do you think I'm going to speak ill of my own sect?" Tuhan sneered, turned his head and left.

"That's it, don't go, I don't know a lot of things, let's talk about it. ”

"Do it yourself. ”

Niu Youdao sighed and said with a smile: "I know you are looking at my master's face, anyway, Lao Tu, thank you for taking care of me for so many years." ”

Tuhan subconsciously touched his one-eye, tilted his head and salivaed, "I'm leaving!"

Dodge and jump into the forest, kick your foot on the trunk of the tree, and disappear without a trace after a few ups and downs.

After recalling what he had just said, Niu Youdao looked back at the way he came, turned over his horse, and galloped away with a smoke.

Out of the mountains and forests, he met with Shang Shuqing and others who were waiting outside, and galloped into the distance together......

The waterfall flows, hangs across the front river, the torrent becomes a river, the turbulent place is diverted to the deep mountains, and the gentle place slowly flows to the plain.

On the official road in the distance, hundreds of horsemen's hooves rumbled, speeding all the way, and when they reached the shallow river beach, they stopped one after another and waited on the side of the road.

The people who are looking forward to it are Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting.

After the treatment and recuperation on the way, although it was hard to travel all the way, Shang Chaozong's complexion was much better, at least he was dressed in a good way and was no longer in tatters, and his face seemed to be resolute and handsome at this time, full of energy, and quite manly.

Behind the two were nearly 500 knights in strong suits, each carrying swords, bows and crossbows and other weapons, and there were hundreds of good horses in between, some of them empty for transfer, and some of them carrying consumable supplies.

After the group stopped, the five hundred horsemen who showed their killing momentum quickly dispersed the vigilance, and several horses galloped to the higher ground to lookout, with skillful tacit understanding.

After waiting for almost half an hour, and still no one was seen, Shang Chaozong was worried: "After saying that we will meet at dawn, Qing'er will not have an accident, right?"

Lan Ruoting said: "That's not it, no matter how good the Shangqing Sect is, it is good to have a famous and decent brand, so as not to be openly unfavorable to the county lord." ”

Shang Chaozong looked in the direction of Shangqing Sect and sighed, "Mr. Dongguo has passed away, and this Shangqing Sect is afraid that it will gradually distance itself from my royal family." ”

Lan Ruoting was silent for a while, he couldn't say that the royal family had lost the Shangqing Sect first, of course, it couldn't be all blamed on the royal family, the royal family was also forced to do it by the oppression of the forces in the cultivation world, and muttered: "To a certain extent, the Shangqing Sect was indeed affected by the previous king, and it was suppressed by various factions in the cultivation world, so that it aggravated the decay, and it fell to such a point. When the first king was in the world, it was still difficult to resist the forces of the cultivation world to protect them, but now that the first king is deceased, the Shangqing Sect has no last powerful barrier, and the situation is already quite difficult, and it is understandable that he is unwilling to send someone to assist the prince, but he can't blame them. ”

Shang Dynasty Sect bowed: "I am not so narrow-minded and resentful because others refuse to help me, if this is the case, wouldn't I have become a villain!" seemed to suddenly think of something, and looked back at him, "Sir, I don't know something, you know that the Shangqing Sect will not send a mage to me as an entourage, why did you still agree to let Qing'er run this trip?"

Lan Ruoting smiled and said, "Does the prince really think that the little county lord is here to ask for a follower?"

Shang Chaozong was surprised, "Isn't it?"

Lan Ruoting sighed lightly, twisted the beard on his chin and shook his head, "There is one thing that the prince doesn't know, in the early years, the county lord was just born, and there was no birthmark on his face, but he cried for a long time, and the good doctor was helpless. After Mr. Dongguo examined the county lord, he said that there was no hidden disease, but he was born with a hard life, so he cried because of it. ”

Shang Chaozong's face was puzzled, "Born in the palace, golden branches and jade leaves, brocade clothes and jade food, parents are reasonable, why do you have a hard life?"

Lan Ruoting shook his head: "I didn't understand it at the time, but Mr. Dongguo has a lot of knowledge in the metaphysics of qi numerology, and said that from the perspective of the county lord's roots, it is a natural red face and troubled water, and when he grows up, he will definitely be peerless. Mr. Dongguo said that the county lord was born in the palace, even if it is bitter, it must be sweet first and then bitter, and if you want to break it, you must change your life. Mr. Dongguo said that first sweet and then bitter can be changed to first bitter and then sweet. The first king asked him to do it, so Mr. Dongguo cast a spell and planted an ugly birthmark on the county lord's face. The strange thing is that after the birthmark was planted, the county lord cried and stopped crying, and actually giggled, the first king was overjoyed, and naturally he also believed in Mr. Dongguo's words, but the county lord suffered all these years. At that time, Mr. Dongguo had said that when the opportunity was right, he could ask the county lord to come to Shangqing Sect to find him, and he would return the true face of the county lord. However, I'm afraid that even Mr. Dongguo himself didn't calculate that he would die before that time. ”

Hearing this, Shang Chaozong suddenly realized and said with a smile: "I understand, what Mr. means is that Qing'er wants to use a sword to find someone from the Qingzong to return her true face." ”

Lan Ruoting bowed: "The law comes out of one door, since Mr. Dongguo knows the ability, presumably the Shangqing Sect is almost inseparable." If the Shangqing Sect is unwilling to send a monk to assist, it should not refuse to remove the evil spots on the county lord's face, and the people can just accept the sword to repay the favor, and the county lord can also get what he wants. ”

"Shhhh

Soon, there was a faint sound of horses' hooves, and Shang Chaozong looked at it, secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and came back.

I saw six horsemen galloping over, and the one who took the lead was the familiar gauze hat, but one more horse inevitably made Shang Chaozong and Lan Ruoting look at each other, could it be that the guess was wrong, and the Shangqing Sect dared to send someone to follow him?

The six horsemen splashed and rushed up the slope across the shallow river beach, meeting this side and stopping.

Shang Shuqing reined in the steed, and said in a crisp voice: "Brother, Mr. Lan, fortunately, the mage is invited." ”

Shang Chaozong's face was suspicious, Lan Ruoting frowned slightly, all looking at Niu Youdao, thinking that this person was a little too young, what kind of mana cultivation could he have? Let this young man be a mage with him, it was just a joke, and he didn't know who was protecting whom.

Both of them instinctively thought that this was a perfunctory act by the Shangqing Sect, so they casually sent someone to make up the numbers.

Niu Youdao was also silently observing them, always with a harmless smile on his face.

"This is my third brother Shang Chaozong, and this is my husband Lan Ruoting. Shang Shuqing first introduced the identities of the two to Niu Youdao.

Niu Youdao arched his hand and smiled: "I've seen the prince, I've seen Mr. Lan." ”

Shang Shuqing in turn introduced Niu Youdao to the two, "This is Mr. Dongguo's closed disciple, Niu Youdao!"
