After the master's ascension

The news of Lu Wangyu's appearance outside Xuanzhou City spread all over the streets and alleys immediately, as if he had wings.

It is said that the disciple who calculated Xuanzhou by rice grains was carried into the inner disciple courtyard that night, and completed the class leap from unknown to core disciple in one fell swoop.

A thought silently came to everyone's mind: Lu Wangyu really is the perfect stepping stone for promotion and fortune, a stepping stone to success!

It's a pity that I have long legs and run a little fast...

The team closest to Xuanzhou from Yao Pavilion rushed to the scene immediately.Unfortunately, the leader of the team is Ning Zhi, the head of Yao Pavilion who just came out of Nanling.

Ning Zhi was still wearing a white shirt with arrow sleeves, embroidered with dark cloud patterns of silver threads, and a tall and neat ponytail.With a flick of her cloak, she rolled over and dismounted neatly.Then carefully survey the scene.

In a moment, there was a result.While cleaning her hands with a white handkerchief, she summoned her subordinates to order: "Notify the others immediately, let them gradually move closer to Xuanzhou from four directions, and focus on investigating suspicious carriages."

"Senior Sister Ning, why is it a carriage..."

A familiar and noisy voice came from beside him again, Ning Zhi turned her head, and it really was Ling Hao who hurried over.

She didn't answer Ling Hao's question directly, but instead asked: "Why are you here? Didn't Chief Yin give you a mission?"

There was a bit of embarrassment on Ling Hao's face, and he said with a sneer, "I've already ordered everything down...Isn't it because I didn't have a few words with my senior sister before, so I dawdled on the road for a while, and I wanted to wait Senior Sister, but I heard that you are coming to Xuanzhou, so I followed."

He murmured in a low voice: "It's boring all the way, so it's good to have a companion with Senior Sister Ning."

Ning Zhi was no stranger to his behavior, she shook her head helplessly, began to answer the initial question, and said: "I see that all the wounds are clean and neat, most of them were killed by a knife. Except for the sole of that woman's foot, As if being stabbed by something..."

"After thinking about it, only standing on top of someone else's carriage can cause such a wound."

Ling Hao was puzzled and said, "Then why couldn't it be that she was standing on the top of the tree, and then the people under the tree touched her?"

Ning Zhi was speechless: "The assassin stood on the top of a tree to stop someone, and the person who was stabbed came right under her, and then went to stab her feet? Don't you think this scene is very funny..."

Ling Hao silently shut up.

After a while, he couldn't hold back anymore, and began to boast: "Senior Sister Ning is really kind-hearted, brother told me to do more and ask less, otherwise I won't be liked by the leader, but I don't understand the meaning of the leader's order at all... ...Only Senior Sister Ning, you don't think I'm bothering you, and you patiently answered me."

Ning Zhi stopped walking towards the horse, she turned her head and asked, "What did Master Zhang Zuo ask you to do?"

Ling Hao leaned forward in a desperate manner, and said courteously: "He asked me to notify all sects and factions, and try my best to capture Lu Wangyu alive..."

Hearing this, Ning Zhi walked away without looking back, leaving only one sentence: "The closest to Xuanzhou is the Taiheng Gate, you should leave now and send a message in person..."

She got on the horse lightly, looked at Ling Hao who was stunned, and raised her eyebrows: "There must be no mistake!"

At the same time that Ling Hao was aggrieved and set off for Taiheng Gate, Lu Wangyu and Wei Zhiyue were passing through the gradually shrinking search area without any danger.

Ning Zhi's analysis was correct, Lu Wangyu and the others were indeed riding in a carriage, and the instructions she gave were also correct.But under normal circumstances, when the above command is passed to the bottom layer, it is easy to change the flavor.

Ning Zhi's original intention was to focus on checking for suspicious carriages, but in the end the order received at the station became "only check for carriages".

Thanks to Ning Zhi's misunderstood order, all the search focus was on the carriage.And Lu Wangyu considered this the first time he left the outskirts of the city. He made a decisive decision and replaced the carriage with a horse.

There is a large difference in the speed of the carriage and the horses. Presumably those people will not be able to react immediately after checking all the way.

The two of them arrived at a dilapidated temple, and they were considered out of danger.They fastened their horse ropes and prepared to settle here temporarily.

After walking for about an hour, you can reach the next town.However, considering that it was still daytime, Lu Wangyu decided to take a short break and enter the city at night.

Wei Zhiyue handed over the water bag, and Lu Wangyu took it graciously.He licked his chapped lips, and teased, "Restriction, I'm afraid we will all have to sleep on the streets in the next few days."

"You said why didn't I ask Jiang An for advice at that time?" He shook his head slightly, seemingly very regretful.

It was also rare for Wei Zhiyue to follow his words. He began to follow his train of thought, imagining the feasibility of wandering, and said: "But we have an advantage over them, at least we are better at hunting..."

Lu Wangyu was amused by his words.

He continued to talk aimlessly, seemingly open-minded, but his thoughts were flying around completely different issues, and his heart kept sinking.

He had a hunch that the attack just now might not be that simple.

While he was talking about Master's one hundred and eighth failed roast chicken, he was thinking carefully about every tiny detail just now.

The woman in red gauze mentioned "the people in the carriage" at the beginning, which shows that they came prepared.

They knew who the person in the carriage was, but because they overestimated their own strength and blindly underestimated their opponents, it seemed effortless to deal with them.

First of all, it is clear that this group of people is not in the same group as Yao Pavilion.Yao Pavilion has a strict hierarchy and strong discipline. It is absolutely impossible for such unorganized and spontaneous actions to occur.

Secondly, they have unique tracking skills, and can easily find the exact foothold of themselves and the execution of the contract.

——This is the biggest hidden danger.

The only good news should be that the dress and exercises of the woman in red gauze don't seem to belong to any famous sect.And according to the anecdotes he had read, there was no introduction to this extremely precise tracking technique.

It is very likely that this is a unique secret technique of a certain magic sect.It's just that I don't know where it came from, and how many people have I learned from...

If there are still people who are proficient in this way and join hands with Yao Pavilion, then they are afraid that they will encounter big troubles.

Lu Wangyu has calculated thousands of situations in his mind, but the results are not very optimistic.

He calmly analyzed the countermeasures for the worst outcome, but there was no worry on his face, but a relaxed look.

Suddenly, Wei Zhiyue suppressed his smile, and he seemed to feel something, and glanced in the direction of the temple entrance.

Mixed with the rustling of branches and leaves, there was a faint sound of a bell.

It's like—the kind I've just heard!
