The Liang Palace was attacked, and the news of the collapse of the Xijiao Gate quickly spread throughout Langjing City. That night, many guards in heavy armor came to the city and began to investigate one by one. However, all the exits leading to the outside of the city were strictly guarded. Reward announcements were also posted in the streets and alleys, attracting everyone's attention.

After everyone in Xuanxiao Pavilion evacuated from the underground palace, Ye Zhiheng detonated all the explosives/explosives that had been arranged in advance. The huge underground buildings of the Zhao Mansion and all the passages leading to the underground palace were blown up and collapsed, and the exits were completely blocked. Tian Wu and the others tried to chase after the incident, but they didn't know where they were going for a while.

The exit of the underground palace was set outside Langjing City, and the orders from the imperial palace had not yet been delivered here, so everyone did not encounter many obstacles along the way, and it took less than a day to enter the Lianheng Mountain Range smoothly.

As part of the border between Liang and Qi, the Lianheng Mountains, with an average altitude of more than [-] meters, constitute an insurmountable natural moat. Due to the inaccessibility of people, most of the mountains are dense virgin jungles, and there are countless beasts and poisonous insects. Except for the mountain people living nearby , Few people have ever approached.

Su Xun and others conducted a detailed study of the mountain, and finally finalized the saddle of the middle section of the Lianheng Mountain Range.The terrain here is relatively flat, but it also has to pass through the jungle desert stretching for tens of miles, and the high mountain is covered with ice and snow all the year round.

Everyone's footsteps gradually slowed down after going deep into the jungle. They could travel more than a hundred miles in half a day, but now it has been a whole day and night, but they are still moving forward in the forest.

According to the report from the spies who set off first, about five miles ahead is the junction of the bush and the forest on the top of the mountain. At this time, it was getting late, and the bush was low and lacking shelter, so it was not suitable for camping. Su Xun and Feng Bo After discussing with others, they decided to find a leeward open space nearby to settle down.

Everyone in Xuanxiao Pavilion took off the glazed masks they had been wearing all year round. After all, they left Xuanxiao Pavilion and there was no longer any need to conceal their identities.This time, everyone can be regarded as living and dying together, and there is no need to share life and death with each other, and they simply treat each other honestly with their true colors.

It's just that the habit of referring to each other by code names is not easy to change, even if the real names are exchanged, it is still difficult to change for a while.

"Your Excellency, Uncle Feng," Su Xun patrolled the crowd, saw that everyone was already full and settled down in the camp, and came to Uncle Feng, "I wonder if it would be convenient for you to take a moment to talk at this moment?"

Uncle Feng nodded in understanding, and took his leave of his colleagues who were having a chat just now. Then he and Su Xun came behind a big rock not far away, and hid in the shadows.

"Your Excellency Zhuyin came to me specially to discuss the whereabouts after arriving in Qi Kingdom?"

Hearing this, Su Xun's heart was terrified, but Unexpectedly, Uncle Feng was so perceptive, but his face remained calm, his pale lips curved slightly, revealing a helpless smile:

"Sure enough, I can't hide anything from you. I did come here to discuss this matter, but if the inside story is known to others, I'm afraid it will cause uneasiness, so I want to discuss countermeasures with you first."

"People are uneasy... Could it be that there is something wrong with Your Excellency Pangu?"

Feng Bo's thoughts changed, and he quickly understood the meaning behind his words. Su Xun also nodded solemnly, and his tone seemed quite heavy: "That's right, with His Excellency Pangu's ability, within a few years, another well-trained organization will be cultivated." It's not too difficult, if he wants to purge Xuanxiao Pavilion, he can contact secretly or lead his troops to come back, no matter what, he won't be in a corner, and will not provide us with a refuge until the water is hard to recover."

"However, if His Excellency Pangu is unwilling to go against everyone's wishes, and deliberately waits until the situation is irreparable before extending a helping hand, it is not impossible to save his colleagues in one fell swoop and win people's hearts even more."

Facing Uncle Feng's doubts, Su Xun frowned and shook his head, then sighed, "Even though what you said is somewhat reasonable, I can't understand Tian Wu's character very well... If Your Excellency Pangu had really been with him back then, There was a fierce conflict in the development of Xuan Xiao Pavilion, even to the point of parting ways, with Tian Wu's aura and Cheng Fu, how can he let such an amazing talent like Pan Gu leave safely?"

"This..." Feng Bo's expression suddenly turned pale, and he was unable to answer Su Xun's question for a while.

As far as he knew, Tian Wu had always been decisive and decisive in dealing with things. Although this style of behavior greatly promoted the development of Xuan Xiao Pavilion, it was often criticized by other high-level officials.With his unkind temperament, if he really had a complete break with Pangu that year, he would definitely regard him as a thorn in his side and wish he could get rid of it quickly.

"Your Excellency Pangu is not an idle person. Even if he fails to escape Tianwu's poisonous hand, he should have his own way of dealing with it." Su Xun rubbed his chin slowly, his expression becoming a little elusive, "It's just that even if you are close As thick as I am, I have also cut off contact with him for many years, and I have not seen him appear during the life and death of Xuanxiao Pavilion, if it is not involuntary, I really can't think of other reasons."

"Then if we don't aim at Fenglu City, where should we go on this trip?"

Su Xun's hanging heart was finally settled by Feng Bo's words, and a faint smile appeared on his face: "Your Excellency, you don't know. Yangcheng is obviously a better place to go. Besides, Bi Fang, Shadow Snake and Li Zhu in Xuanxiao Pavilion are the ones with high status in Pingchang Army of Qi State, and among them Bi Fang is the son of Duke Pingchang. Presumably, he recommended him wholeheartedly. Now that the army of Liang is about to rise, Qi urgently needs to strengthen its military equipment, and the addition of Xuan Xiao Pavilion will undoubtedly be of great help."

He was not aimless, and Duan Yunyang had seriously discussed this matter with him long before going to the palace.If there were no accidents, Duan Yunyang should have been the one to make it happen, but now that he was in a coma due to poisoning, he had no choice but to leave the matter to himself.

Su Xun couldn't help feeling a little bit bitter in his heart, and he wasn't sure if he could last until the moment when Duan Yunyang woke up and everyone met Pingchang Gong. In order to ensure everything was safe, the only way to do it was to tell Uncle Feng everything. .He is highly respected in the pavilion, and it is not difficult to get the support of this person after thinking about it, and it is not difficult to incorporate dozens of pavilion members in front of him into the army.

"If that's the case, it's okay for us to go to Shaoyang City," Feng Bo sighed, his eyes became distant and melancholy, "but this is going against the original intention of Xuanxiao Pavilion. Everyone cast aside, this time we defected to the state of Qi, how is our behavior different from him?"

Su Xun's body swayed slightly due to a turbulent cough in his chest, and hurriedly took half a step back to support the boulder to stand firm, covered his mouth and coughed a few times, wiped the corners of his lips with his fingers, and then said in a deep voice:

"Xuanxiao Pavilion was established for the peace of the common people. Now that the world is peaceful, the biggest variable is Liang Guo's militarism. If we can unite Qi to stop the war, wouldn't it be a good thing? Let alone this matter, Xuanxiao Pavilion You can retreat under the protection of Bi Fang and others, and no longer participate in the siege of the city, in this way, it is not a violation of the cabinet rules, is it?"

Uncle Feng pursed his lips and nodded, frowned and pondered for a long while, but he was still noncommittal, but his expression was much more relaxed than before.Su Xun saw that he seemed to be quite moved by the generous conditions, so he simply took advantage of the victory and pursued: "There is no rush for this matter, you can carefully consider the pros and cons of it, and then discuss it with me after you make up your mind."

"So... that's fine, let me think about it first."

After all, this move is somewhat risky. Whether everyone can successfully integrate into the army is one aspect. What is more important is that if they really make great contributions in the war in the future, it will not be easy to escape smoothly. He must carefully consider this, so he asked Su Xun Nodding his head, he walked slowly towards the tent.

Su Xun didn't say anything more, but felt dizzy for a while, and hurriedly pressed against the stone wall so as not to collapse.

Panting tremblingly, he finally endured the sudden headache and tinnitus. After the sharp pain gradually dissipated, he slowly opened the palm of his left hand, and saw a bright red smear on the white skin, which was indescribably beautiful. dense.

Fortunately, Uncle Feng was restless just now, and he covered it up in time, so that he barely concealed his injury.At this moment, everything is uncertain, at least before Duan Yunyang recovers, he must stabilize the situation before him and send everyone into Qi country smoothly.

Taking out the towel and wiping away the traces in his hands, he adjusted his breath slightly to calm down the turbulent Qi and blood, and followed Uncle Feng to walk downhill quickly.

Seeing Feng Bo and Su Xun walking out of the boulder one after the other from a distance, Ye Zhiheng hesitated for a moment, but resisted the urge to check.After all, Su Xun's injury was so severe that if he hadn't used a special method, he would never have acted as usual.

But he couldn't understand his lord's disposition very well, if he had made up his mind not to let him know, he would not be able to find the answer no matter how hard he tried.The current plan is to start with Yuan Ruozhuo, but this kid has been avoiding him since the day he was treated for the poison, and now he is even more busy taking care of various injuries, so he can't even find him.

If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, he secretly decided in his heart, no matter what, he must catch Yuan Ruozhuo and ask him for clarification.

Feeling depressed, he simply sat down on a deserted grassy slope and fiddled with the puppet silk in his hand.

After a while, a voice suddenly came from behind: "Brother Ye, if you want to interrupt me, I wonder if it is convenient for you to talk to me about the psychic puppet right now?"

Ye Zhiheng turned his head when he heard the sound, and seeing that it was the puppet master from Xuanxiao Pavilion, he moved to the side to make room for an open space. Pei Shu saw that he didn't look too reserved, so he also lifted the hem of his robe Shi Shiran Sitting down, he chuckled lightly and said, "Since Brother Ye is generous with his teachings, I should report my family background. My name is Pei Shu. I am from Shaoyang, Qi State. When I was young, I studied under Song Ying, a master puppet maker. Join Xuan Xiao Pavilion."

"Are you a disciple of Master Song of Qi State? Master Song is considered a great power in the puppet-making world. He also made good friends with my Ye family many years ago. Her disciple must be extraordinary. Otherwise, how could you be so young and serve as a puppet master?" Take the position of leader of the Xuanshu Department of Xuanxiao Pavilion?" Ye Zhiheng smiled slightly, with a hint of approval in his expression, "I wonder how Master Song is doing recently?"

"Teacher, everything is fine. Thank you Brother Ye for your concern. This time, we will go to Qi country together. I also hope to introduce you to the teacher to share some experience in puppet making."

Seeing that the Ye family had a close relationship with Song Ying, Pei Shu was naturally overjoyed. He was obsessed with making puppets since he was a child, but the more he studied in recent years, the more he cared about the heavy and clumsy problem of making mechanical puppets.If you can exchange experience with the masters who cast the psychic puppets, maybe you can completely solve this problem in the future.

"It's okay, it will take some time before we arrive in Qi, and it won't be too late to discuss this matter then."

Ye Zhiheng nodded noncommittally, but did not immediately agree to Pei Shu's request.At the moment, he is concerned about Su Xun's physical condition, and he has no time to think about all kinds of things after the settlement.

What's more, his Ye family suffered from the persecution of the puppet masters who coveted the secret arts. Although the person in front of him looks simple and obsessed with casting, he can't be sure what the forces behind him are planning. In other words, be careful in everything.

The author has something to say: touch me Susu as usual, and the author's official assurance that little friend Pei Shu is really a good person, Zhiheng, don't worry~
