The mountains and rivers are quiet and broad

"Do you have golden bell flowers?" Xu Qingfeng asked.

Tasiya smiled to herself, neither admitting nor denying it.

"There is an antidote, right? The prince's poison can be cured, right?" Xu Qingfeng asked cautiously, carefully observing Tasiya's expression, hoping to see a positive answer from it.

But Tasiya still had the same expression, without revealing any clues.Xu Qingfeng wanted to ask again, but Tasiya interrupted him impatiently: "Just follow us, don't talk so much."

Xu Qingfeng had no choice but to hold back his racing thoughts, and the group walked southwest for a few days and arrived at a small cottage.

The villages are all very simple shacks, which will crumble when the wind is strong, and the shacks are surrounded by sand, so they are all hung with thick curtains, covering the inside of the house as if it is dark.

Pushed into a room, Xu Qingfeng couldn't adapt to the darkness in front of him, and couldn't see anything for a while, only to hear a bang behind him, the door was closed, followed by the sound of locking.

Xu Qingfeng stood silently for a while, and after his eyes got used to it, he slowly looked at the environment in front of him.

The room was extremely small and crude, without a table, let alone a lamp, and there was a thick pile of hay in the corner, which seemed to be his "bed".

Xu Qingfeng cleverly freed his bound hands, and then threw himself on the dry grass, which quickly sank under the weight of a grown man.

But it's not soft, and there are many grass tips piercing Xu Qingfeng's body, which is not a good place.

However, Xu Qingfeng was exhausted after driving for several days, and collapsed on the haystack, feeling sleepy after a while.

Although the situation was bad, Xu Qingfeng didn't panic.Along the way, Tasiya and the others kept rushing, and when they arrived at the place, Tasiya went straight to the hut in the innermost part of the village, seeming very anxious. No matter what, Tasiya and the others did not hurt Xu Qingfeng, which meant that there was no danger at the moment. .

Xu Qingfeng glanced at the precariously closed door just now, and closed his eyes.

This was the No.20 seven days after the war broke out. The enemy army marched three miles from early morning to noon, and then stopped. That night, Da Chen sent 8000 troops to attack and captured [-] enemy troops. The two armies fell into a stalemate again.

"My lord is really good at predicting things." Cao Dingkun was cheerful. Although yesterday's surprise attack was not a real fight, judging from the result, it was also a small victory with less victory, which greatly encouraged the soldiers. their fighting spirit.

"Indeed." Chen Yiyun nodded in agreement, "Look at those captives, they don't have any fighting spirit at all. They all say they were forced to join the alliance. I think the Kazeya multi-clan is planning to use this opportunity to calm down how many small tribes. If they fail to attack the Central Plains, they can unify the Northwest, as long as the fundamentals are not damaged in this battle, they will be the biggest winners."

Chen Yikai glanced at Chen Yiyun with a little surprise: "Why are you thinking so fast today?"

"What?" Chen Yiyun looked at Chen Yikai in bewilderment. This cousin had always been much smarter than him, but now he suddenly praised him, but Chen Yiyun didn't understand what was going on.

Chen Yikai was speechless, "tsk": "Idiot..."

However, Cao Dingkun understood: "Is this what the prince meant when he said that the war will not intensify? The Kazeya tribe only wants to unify the northwest, and they will not really attack the Central Plains, and those small tribes have also seen through this point, so they will So negative."

"Exactly." Chen Yikai nodded, "For Da Chen, this is also a good time to win people's hearts. Look at these new orders from King Ren, first give preferential treatment to prisoners, then ask for details, and then wait to see him." The elders of these small tribes had a rubbing session."

"My lord is really far-sighted." Chen Yiyun said with emotion.

"What are you holding?" Chen Yikai had the time to ask this question. When he came in just now, he saw the envelope in Chen Yiyun's hand. During the conversation just now, Chen Yiyun didn't put it down, and kept holding it in his hand.

"It's a secret report sent back by someone who went to find Mr. Xu."

"Oh?" Cao Dingkun was pleasantly surprised, "Any news?"

"It's still good news." Chen Yiyun said, just as he was about to elaborate, Chen Ke came in from outside the tent.

Although Xu Qingfeng was not there, Chen Ke still went to his camp for three meals, so the three of them waited for Chen Ke here.

As soon as Chen Ke came in, he heard Chen Yiyun say there was good news, and subconsciously looked at Chen Yiyun, and Chen Yiyun immediately handed over a secret report: "Report to the lord, Mr. Xu has been found!"

Chen Ke hurriedly took the secret report, on which was written the name of a small village in the southwest.

"Mr. Xu is here, and he was indeed taken away by the Demon Sect..." Chen Yiyun reported, "Mr. Xu was not injured, and I have sent people to rescue Mr. Xu."

Chen Ke folded the secret report, "This is a village that has been deserted for nearly a year, Xima Village, the home of Miss Amman."

Chen Yiyun and the others were startled.

Chen Ke walked to the map, picked up another red sign and stuck it at the location of Xima Village.

"Xima Village is not big, and it is very far from Xiaoyao Township, but this village is a central point." Chen Ke drew a circle on the map, and Xima Village was at the center of the circle. "With Xima Village as the center, the surrounding There are seven sub-clans in total, and they were successively drawn into the alliance by the Cazeya multi-clan a year ago."

"Why did the Demon Sect take Mr. Xu there?" Cao Dingkun was puzzled.

"First, the current Xima has been occupied by the Demon Cult. Second, Xima still belongs to those small tribes." Chen Ke pondered: "Send a team to Xima, and listen to Xu Qingfeng's dispatch."

Chen Yiyun was stunned, "Yes! I'm under orders!"

Xu Qingfeng didn't wake up until nightfall. He slept quite heavily this time. After waking up, he was confused for a moment. He subconsciously went to find Chen Ke. When he turned over, he was hit by the dry grass under him, and then he woke up. This is not in a military camp, but in an unknown village.

Xu Qingfeng sat up and stretched.He muttered, "I'm exhausted..."

Someone outside heard Xu Qingfeng's muttering, poked his head over, and spoke unproficient Chinese: "You can sleep, eat!" The tone seemed to have been waiting for Xu Qingfeng to wake up for a long time.

Xu Qingfeng recognized the other party when he heard the voice. He was the strongest man around Tasiya, and his name was Lu Xiu.

Lu Xiu's clothes are not too exaggerated, but his brain is relatively stupid, his behavior is rude, like a savage.

At this time, he also pulled the lock on the door very arrogantly. Unexpectedly, the door was torn off with too much force, which shocked Lu Xiu. In the gap between the doors, Xu Qingfeng stared at Xu Qingfeng in confusion.

Xu Qingfeng was amused, and went straight forward to bring in the food that was placed at Lu Xiu's feet, sat back on the haystack, and said to the dumbfounded Lu Xiu: "Put the door back, or what if I run away?"

"Your hand?" Lu Xiu frowned, looking at Xu Qingfeng puzzled.

It was only then that Xu Qingfeng remembered that he had untied himself, and without thinking too much, he opened his mouth and fooled Lu Xiu: "The rope fell off by itself."

Lu Xiu was still puzzled, as if he felt something was wrong, Xu Qingfeng threatened him: "Fix the door quickly, or Tasiya will beat you!"

Lu Xiu understood these words, and Xu Qingfeng often said this to him along the way, Lu Xiu had no choice but to put down the door in his hand, and studied how to close the door, even forgetting that he was here to deliver food.

On the other hand, Xu Qingfeng, who knew Lu Xiu's temperament, held a bowl of dry food and watched Lu Xiu sweat profusely wasting his efforts.

"Move a little to the left." Xu Qingfeng pointed.

Sure enough, Lu Xiu pulled the door and moved to the right, and looked at Xu Qingfeng expectantly.Xu Qingfeng shook his head, pointed to the left, this time Lu Xiu came to his senses, and pulled the doorknob to get in.

The taste of the dry food was not good, so Xu Qingfeng put it down after a few mouthfuls, "Lu Xiu, is there any water?"

"Water, no. Wine, yes." Lu Xiu pointed to the wine bag on his waist: "But I won't give it to you." Lu Xiu looked a little complacent, took off the wine bag, raised his head and took a big sip, and let out a sigh of relief. Dripping sigh.

Xu Qingfeng was speechless, also stupid, why didn't he feel that he was so disgusting when he was insane?

Lu Xiu was full of pride, and suddenly received a slap on the back of the head, which made him stunned, and turned to see Tasiya.

"Tasia..." Lu Xiu was wronged, why should he beat him?

Tasiya smiled angrily: "I asked you to deliver the food, what have you been doing for so long?"

Tasiya shook her hands, "Do you think I'm happy to hit you? I'll jump up and hit you if I hit you, okay?!"

The two did not speak Chinese, so Xu Qingfeng couldn't understand it, but he could probably guess the content of their conversation. Lu Xiu bent down and buried his head with an aggrieved face, and Tasiya slapped him again, and he was angry To open the door to come in.

But just now Lu Xiu locked the door to death, Tasiya failed to open the door, looked down, and pointed to the lock to ask Lu Xiu to open it.

Lu Xiu saw Tasia go to pull the lock on the door, so he hurriedly grabbed her, waved his hand, grabbed the door, pulled it hard, and unloaded the door again.

"Uh..." Tasiya's expression was a little tense.

Xu Qingfeng was overjoyed, Tasiya wanted to get angry but didn't know where to start, so she waved at Xu Qingfeng helplessly, and said in a bad tone, "Go..."

Xu Qingfeng stood up, Tasiya looked at his free hands, said nothing, and led the people to the innermost room of the cottage.

Several lamps were lit in the room, Xu Qingfeng squinted his eyes, and saw that the small room was actually full of people.

Everyone looked dignified and said nothing. Tasiya led Xu Qingfeng in, and everyone's eyes fell on Xu Qingfeng.

Their dresses were different, and they didn't speak Chinese. Xu Qingfeng followed closely behind Tasiya.

Although Tasiya's petite body couldn't stop him at all, Xu Qingfeng noticed that as soon as he came in, several demon sects near the door quickly approached, surrounding him as if to protect him.

"This is the person Master Yan said?"

Xu Qingfeng couldn't understand what the other party asked, but Tasiya nodded.The atmosphere in the room was too dignified, Xu Qingfeng looked carefully, guessing the intentions of these people in his heart.

"Hand over the stone of life and death." The person in the corner suddenly shouted in Chinese.

Xu Qingfeng looked at the people in the corner, but he couldn't see clearly, but everyone looked at Xu Qingfeng, not caring about the people in the corner.

"The Stone of Life and Death?" Xu Qingfeng hesitated, "I don't know what the Stone of Life and Death is."
