For Bai Ruo, there is no need to go to Beijing to see the emperor to ask for any canonization. Although the capitals are not far apart, even if they must be involved in the battle of humanity and have entanglements with Da Zhen Qi, this can be done as much as possible Relatively reduce the impact on one’s own practice. As for the dispute between Bai Ruo and Humanity because she was not canonized by Dazhen, it is not justified. The Shinto of Zuyue Kingdom can attack her directly without any scruples. She is not afraid of this, not to mention that the current war is mainly in Dazhen. Even if the country invades the Zuyue Kingdom, the Shinto there has already collapsed.
In fact, many people had the same idea as Bai Ruo, and some even acted earlier. Of course, there were also those who were willing to accept the imperial canonization. Some went to the capital, and some reported to the local officials and obtained directions. Head directly to the north.
……
“Drive… drive…” “Drive, everyone, climb over this mountain before nightfall!”
“Got it!” “Got it!”
At dusk, on a mountain road in the southern border of Qizhou, thirty or forty people were riding horses. Each of these people was armed with various weapons and dressed in different clothes. They seemed loosely organized but each of them had a calm atmosphere. .
Finally, before nightfall, these thirty or forty people came out of the mountain and temporarily camped on the edge of the official road a few miles away from the foot of the mountain. They said they were camping, but in fact they just found a suitable place to tie their horses. , then light up the bonfire and rest for a while.
It is winter now. Even the warriors who have been traveling all day are still too cold to bear it. It is a rare treat to sit by a few bonfires and rest now. However, the body is cold and the heart is warm, and everyone is full of energy. .
“We have entered the territory of Qizhou, and we are not far from the pass of our Dazhen garrison. We must be prepared to cultivate our spirits. We will meet the Zuyue thieves soon, and we will definitely make them look good!”
“That’s right. The Zuyue thieves can’t win head-on, so they just engage in all these crooked things and deceive me. I have no one to deceive me? Let them know the sharpness of my broadsword!”
After the man who answered finished speaking, he pulled out a small section of his knife, revealing the blade that reflected the firelight.
“Now there are righteous men from all walks of life in the rivers and lakes. We are skilled in martial arts. It is the time to support justice. Many people in Qizhou have been killed. Now there are also thieves running around. I have waited to pass Qilin Pass. After that, if you see any thieves, kill them all!”
“Yes!” “Not bad!”
While a group of warriors were discussing heatedly, the sound of horse hooves sounded again in the distance, and it was getting closer. Although these warriors were not familiar with military affairs, they were all skilled in martial arts and had relatively sharp eyesight and hearing, so they all fell silent immediately.
Someone jumped to a nearby tree with a light skill. Looking into the distance, he saw a group of knights approaching. It was not completely dark at the moment, so it could be seen that the knights were all neatly dressed.
“Comrades, here is a group of soldiers, they look like our Dazhen soldiers!”
Hearing what the people on the tree said, the people below looked at each other, and subconsciously stood up with weapons on their bodies, without deliberately avoiding them.
Not long after, this group of knights rode their horses close by. The leading officer raised his hand, and the cavalry began to slow down slowly. Finally, they stopped about thirty steps away from the group of warriors, which happened to be relatively safe. The distance is within the powerful range of the soldiers’ crossbows.
The leading sergeant holds a long spear and points it at the warriors in front.
“I am the inspection team of the Northern Army of Dazhenzheng. Who are you? Get your name quickly!”
While the sergeant was asking questions, dozens of cavalry soldiers on horseback were already aiming their crossbows at the front.
Immediately, a martial artist stepped forward and clasped his fists to answer.
“We are all Dazhen Jianghu warriors. The country is in trouble now, so we came to the north to do our best to kill the traitors of the ancestors and Yue and support justice.”
“Is there a way out?”
“Yes, please take a look!”
The warrior who answered before took out the road guide book from his arms, stepped forward and handed it to the sergeant. After the latter took it, he opened the book and looked at it. He could see the seals and annotations stamped at the first few passes. Looking at these warriors, some were plainly dressed and some were brightly dressed, but they were generally neat and tidy, and there were no bloodstains on their bodies.
The sergeant narrowed his eyes and asked suddenly.
“You are all from Yizhou? You just came to the north, but you brought Yizhou’s famous Hualong dumpling cake? You haven’t had it in a long time.”
The leading warrior frowned, and before he could speak, someone in the crowd behind him started to wonder.
“Hualong dumpling cake? Is it famous in Yizhou? Never heard of it, Lord Jun, is it a food from a small place?”
The leading sergeant smiled and put away the steel gun in his hand.
“I made it up, of course you haven’t heard of it.”
The warrior was confused, but he still finished what he had just finished.
“We are not all from Yizhou, we also have colleagues from Bingzhou, but the road is drawn from Yizhou. The one over there is the chief arrester of Bingzhou, and the Yin Yang God arrests Wang Kewang and arrests the head!”
The sergeant was slightly startled, and looked up at the inconspicuous man in brown shirt standing by the campfire. He saw that the man was slightly cupping his hands in this direction. He did not expect that this man was still a public arrest, but the so-called yin and yang He had never heard of the title of “Shen Catcher”. It should be the same as those popular titles.
Thinking about this, the sergeant returned the favor to Wang Ke, then handed the road guide book back to the warrior in front of the horse, and then handed it over to everyone.
“Thank you all the righteous people for coming to help. This is already the front line. I apologize for any offense I have made.”
“Don’t worry, Master, we know the importance of it!” “That’s right, Master, don’t worry. We are also in the world of martial arts, and we know how to be on guard against others!”
The warriors really didn’t have much dislike for this group of cavalry. Their armors were scratched and damaged, and stained with a lot of old blood. Without asking, they knew they were warriors who had experienced **** battles.
“Well, I would like to remind you that it is no longer safe when you get here. There are many treacherous enemies in the enemy, so you have to be careful of some evil ways. Go straight northeast from here in the direction of our army’s camp. There are also trails around the pass, so don’t be careful! We have military affairs at hand, so I’ll take my leave first!”
“Everyone, go slowly, see you soon!” “See you soon!”
Some of the warriors who had been hiding behind the trees also came out. Thirty or forty people clasped their fists towards the approximately fifty cavalrymen. Only the officer on horseback returned the salute, and then after saying “Let’s go”, he led the soldiers to strategize. The horse leaves.
When the cavalry disappeared from the sight of the warriors, the warriors sighed.
“What a magnificent soldier, I, Dazhen, cannot possibly lose!”
“Yes, with this king’s master, we will definitely defeat the thieves!”
While others were sighing, the warrior holding the road guide also approached Wang Ke, who had never spoken.
“Wang Shenqing, should we go to the camp?”
“Well, of course we have to go, and we must listen to what the sergeant said. We must pay special attention to it at night. We need more manpower for the night watch tonight.”
While Wang Ke was speaking, he was still looking at the direction in which the group of cavalry left. At this moment, there was only a piece of rising dust in his sight.
“Second Master, why do you keep staring at those soldiers?”
The person who spoke was the person standing next to Wang Ke. He looked strong and tall, but his face still showed some childishness. It was Zuo Wuji who was only fourteen years old.
Wang Ke looked at Zuo Wuji and sighed.
“I have been in charge of the prison seal for many years. This thing was given by an immortal. Over the years, I have judged yin and yang, and I have gradually gained some abilities. Sometimes I can vaguely feel that someone is about to die.”
“Then, what Second Master means, those sergeants?”
“Yeah, but I can’t say anything. There are no absolutes in the world. The soldiers of the Northern Expedition are inherently dangerous. Even people like you and me have death energy in their bodies. Let’s rest first.”
……
It was night, and there was a faint scream in the distant wilderness.
Wang Ke, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes, frowned and looked around, and used his elbow to elbow Zuo Wuji beside him. The latter also opened his eyes the next moment, looked to his side and lowered his voice in confusion.
“Master?”
“Shhh… wake everyone up and be silent.”
Only then did Zuo Wuji realize that even the night watchmen were asleep in this temporary camp, and he never believed that the warriors would not be able to endure the sleepiness and persist until the shift change.
Soon, everyone was pushed awake one after another, and when they woke up, they were reminded by their companions who woke up first to keep quiet.
“Everyone, show your weapons.”
The warriors gathered together handed out swords and other objects one after another. Wang Ke took out a small seal from his arms and pressed it lightly on everyone’s weapons. There was a faint fluorescent “Prison” on the swords and other objects. “The word flashed.
“Everyone, something evil will definitely show up tonight. I’ll pretend to be asleep, control my heart rate and breathing. If I make a move later, don’t hesitate.”
“I know!” “Yeah.” “It’s all up to the king!”
Everyone became nervous, but after all, they were all experienced in the world, so they quickly suppressed their uneasiness, lay back in their respective positions and pretended to be asleep, and controlled their breathing and pulse to make themselves appear to be in deep sleep.
About half a quarter of an hour later, about twenty figures quietly appeared from the wilderness in the distance, and approached the camp where Wang Ke and others were at extremely fast speeds.
“Huh, there are indeed some short-lived ghosts here. Master Zhou’s sleepy wind is really powerful. I can cut off a hundred left ears tonight.”
Soon, more than 20 people came closer and saw clearly that dozens of people dressed as warriors were sleeping next to the bonfire with residual heat from the sparks. They all looked happy.
“Are these warriors from the mainland of Dazhen? Great, these people are richer and richer than those who are soldiers!”
“Hey, that’s right, let’s stop talking nonsense and chop off their heads first.”
More than twenty people jumped into the camp, slowly pulled out their scimitars one by one, and raised them high at the neck of their target. But just when they were about to cut down with one blow, they suddenly saw something in their eyes. The light of the sword lit up.
“Zheng~” “Zheng~” “Zheng~”……
“Pfft…” “Pfft…” “Pfft…” “Pfft…”…
Bloody blood surged in the camp, and Wang Ke and others launched a violent counterattack. After killing and injuring many opponents first, the lights of swords and shadows enveloped the offending enemies. Zuo Wuji held a flat staff, smashing one man’s crotch and then another. Stab one person in the neck, swing the flat stick and open and close it widely.
In just a dozen breaths, with deliberate arithmetic and overwhelming numbers, the twenty or so intruders were all killed, and many **** ears were found in their pockets. .
Half an hour later, under the leadership of Wang Ke, everyone found another camp, which was full of corpses of Dazhen soldiers. The officer who left a good impression on everyone during the day was among them, and everyone Lost his left ear.
