Turbulent Times Chapter 218: The second corpse (fourth)
When the tall and mighty old man came before the lonely old man, he suddenly seemed to have become a lot shorter, and his demeanor and demeanor showed respect and fear from the bottom of his heart.
"Palace Master, the young man who is suspected to be the envoy of Spring and Autumn has left the capital of the Great Sui Dynasty. The old man Tianying from the Tianying Palace and Tian Xiangzi from the Momen have also left their lair. It is very likely that they are looking for this young man. people."
"Go and bring that young man to see me." The lonely old man suddenly had light in his cloudy old eyes, "If Tian Xiangzi and Tianying Xiaoer dare to rob us, we will fight them to the death. I don't care about you." Whatever method is used, the young man must be brought back."
…
…
On the bank of the Wei River, at the foot of the Qinling Mountains, is the official road from Guanzhong to Yongzhou. Along the Weishui River Valley to Tianshui County, Yongzhou, the official road is long and tortuous, like a jade belt, passing through the peaks of the Longshan Mountains in the Qinling Mountains. The night is approaching, the sunset has already set behind the mountain, and the last afterglow of the setting sun can only be seen from the top of the mountain.
In the approaching twilight, in the middle of the official road, in front of a dilapidated post station, Wang Junlin waved his hand, and the convoy stopped. Zhan Peng led a hundred guards in full armored cavalry to surround the convoy All around, Niu Jinda and Yu Zimo rode tall horses and followed Wang Junlin from left to right. The whole convoy consisted of two carriages, one of which was originally for Wang Junlin, and Wang Junlin let Shen Guoer sit on it. The other one was for a shameless scholar.
Shen Guang was not among them, he and the Ghost Eye he created hid in the dark, incarnate as various identities and walked together.
Walking for a whole day, neither fast nor slow, walked ninety miles, and walked more than twenty miles before arriving at Baoji County in Hechi County.
North of the Weishui River is Pingliang County in Yongzhou. After traveling for 400 miles in the valley at the junction of Pingliang County and Hechi County, you can reach Tianshui County. The official road located on the north bank of the Weishui River should belong to Hechi County in terms of geographical location, but due to the barrier of Longshan Mountain, Hechi County cannot directly govern it. Check on the road to maintain law and order.
The location of the post station is close to the mountains and rivers, connecting the sky and the earth. The mountains and rivers have the appearance of dragons and snakes. Fengshui here is very good, if you bury the coffin, you can prosper your family. Therefore, Wang Junlin was not at all surprised that this Hekou station was dilapidated like an old ancestral hall next to an old grave.
If it is in the capital city or the state city, the post station will be decorated with carved railings and painted buildings, with multiple buildings and emerald green buildings, which is three points more magnificent than the county government. But since it is a post station in the valley, the facilities are much simpler. In this post station named Shijiaping, you can see thatched grass standing upright on the roof, and one side of the backyard, even half collapsed, was left there without maintenance.
"This is most likely the reform of the ancestral hall." Wang Junlin thought to himself.
More than a hundred people came on horseback, there was a lot of commotion, but no one came out to greet him. When he was more than ten steps away from the post station, Mao Mao suddenly grinned at the post station and let out a roar. The blood-maned horse also raised its front hooves and neighed. Almost at the same time, Wang Junlin also smelled a faint smell of blood.
Almost at the same time, Wang Junlin suddenly heard a scream from inside the station.
The meaning of miserable cry is that a person's cry is full of mournful horror, pain and despair. Therefore, the screams will never be pleasant.
But the miserable cries that everyone, including Wang Junlin, heard this time were beyond words such as horror, pain, despair, and unpleasantness.
The screams gave each of them a feeling of being torn apart. Flesh, bones, liver, blood vessels, tendons, nails, and hair were all torn.
Because the screams heard by everyone at this time are like the sound of drums on the battlefield, one after another, one after another, one after another...
Wang Junlin narrowed his eyes. Without his order, Niu Jinda had already walked into the station with ten guards, steel knives out of their sheaths, steel crossbows wound up, and a look of vigilance on his face. Zhanpeng ordered softly one after another, and the rest of the guards quickly dispersed to search for suspicious persons nearby and occupy a favorable location.
Being locked in the house for more than three months, Yu Zimo, who was almost suffocated, was eager to try, just like Lynx Mao Mao, who was eager to prove his strength.
Wang Junlin comforted Maomao and the blood-maned horse, stopped Yu Zimo who was about to rush into the station with his horse, and then walked into the station with his hands behind his back.
The door of the post station was open, and a group of people went in. No one was seen in the two dining halls in front. Mei bloomed alone in the small courtyard.
Ignoring Niu Jinda's objection, Wang Junlin quickened his pace and walked ahead side by side with Niu Jinda, surrounded by ten guards.
Facing the cold evening wind, Wang Junlin took a long breath and let it out again.
His breathing stopped abruptly, his pupils shrunk.
Because he suddenly saw a pale face among the branches and leaves of the old plum tree, looking at him with a ghostly smile.
Suddenly, such a smiling face appeared in front of my eyes, and it was looking at you and smiling.
What will happen to you?
Niu Jinda reacted quickly, took a step back and leaped into the sky, with his left hand across his chest to defend himself, and his right hand poked out the big eagle claw, ready to grab this pale face out of the plum tree.
But he didn't grab this claw, because Wang Junlin stretched out his hand and grabbed his arm firmly.
Wang Junlin has seen many people's smiling faces in his past and future lives, but such a crooked, evil, warm and terrifying smile, plus the one in front of him. I've seen eleven.
Nine of the smiling faces were invited by Sha Qianmo, the horse thief king of the Western Regions, in the Qilian Mountains outside Shazhou City at the beginning of the year. The latter greeted the guests with nine corpses. And the tenth smiling face was when he had a bet with the old couple of Tianying Palace in the new mansion nearly two months ago. The other party killed one of his guards. first one.
"The nine corpses welcome...the second corpse?" Wang Junlin murmured to himself, his expression icy cold.
At this moment, a sudden change occurred, and the corpse suddenly ignited without fire, and a green flame was found, and the flame became extremely large in an instant.
Wang Junlin's complexion changed, and he shouted: "Shut your breath and retreat quickly."
The ten guards had long been banned by Wang Junlin's training order. When they heard the order, they held their breath for the first time and retreated towards the way they came from as quickly as possible.
Wang Junlin followed them and backed out too, but he was already starting to feel dizzy with his head in his hand, and a faint green Niu Jinda appeared on his face.
Of all the people under Wang Junlin's command, Niu Jinda and Shen Guang are naturally the strongest. They are both at the peak of stagnation period and have rich fighting experience. Niu Jinda instinctively froze for a moment before doing so, but in this froze, it was already too late.
