When Zou Heng walked into the room, he saw that there were only two people sitting in the room, namely Li Sheng and His Highness Ren Wang.

Seeing Zou Heng come in, King Ren immediately stood up and said to Zou Heng with a smile: "The Master is here. You have had a good rest from last night to today!"

"Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty Renwang, I had a good rest!" Zou Heng also smiled and said politely, and then he was invited to sit down together.

"Haha, after the banquet ended last night, the mage went to another banquet and had an exchange with two military mages from Anyuan Pass. We also saw some from a distance. If you were at the banquet last night, please

Just let the three mages communicate with each other!" After Zou Heng sat down, King Ni again mentioned the communication he had with the two mages last night.

Because they were relatively close, although no one else participated except the three warlocks, they still saw some scenes from a distance. There were also some people talking about it in Anyuan Pass today.

"The cultivation of those two mages is far better than mine. The reason why they chose to communicate with me after the banquet was over is that those two mages wanted to save my face and not make me look too embarrassed." Zou Heng was very modest.

He said, and at the same time, he was thinking about whether to tell Nioh about getting the magic weapon. After all, the main purpose of the other party giving him the magic weapon was to show goodwill to Nioh.

"Master Zou is too humble. I know how good your methods are. Compared with those two mages, your cultivation time is a little behind them. Sooner or later you will catch up."

"I called you here this afternoon because I want to discuss with you how we should go to the royal capital next."

King Ni smiled and praised Zou Heng again, and then got to the point.

After resting for a day at Anyuan Pass, Niou's originally weak body had recovered, so he naturally had to consider the safety of the rest of his journey.

The road from Anyuan Pass all the way to the royal capital is not close. Although it is within the territory of Yu State, the dangers faced are no less than when they are in the frontier wilderness.

When the topic got to the point, Zou Heng stopped being modest and turned his attention directly to Li Sheng.

As a general of the Yu Kingdom, Li Sheng had more say than Ren Wang and Zou Heng on how to take the next road.

King Ren has not been back to the Kingdom of Yu for many years. Even if he is still familiar with his homeland, his memory is definitely not as clear as before. In addition, as the heir of the king, when he was in the Kingdom of Yu, he was at most familiar with the vicinity of the capital.

Familiar, he hasn't been to many other places.

Zou Heng came to this world about three years ago, and his understanding of the Yu Kingdom was also very limited. He followed his previous master and spent most of his time around a fixed area. In addition, at that time, he had to concentrate on learning skills and being familiar with the surroundings.

There is even less understanding.

Li Sheng also knew that the two of them might not know much about this aspect, so he took the initiative to speak.

He first took out a map from his body, opened it and laid it on the table, then pointed at the map and started talking.

"From Anyuan Pass to the royal capital, we must first arrive at Yecheng. This is the largest city in Yu State close to the border of Qi State. We can't go around it when we go to the royal capital."

"After passing Yecheng, continue walking for two days to reach Yujiang. From here, you have a choice for the next road. You can choose to take the water route, take a boat along the Yujiang River, all the way to Hanshan City, and finally go to

To the Royal Capital, you can also continue walking on land and follow the official road, or you can go a little further, climb over a large mountain range, and spend a little more time to reach the Royal Capital!"

Li Sheng gave a brief introduction, and by the way, he used his finger to trace each route he mentioned on the map.

This is the first time that Zou Heng has seen a map of this world. After all, in this world, maps are not something that can be seen everywhere. Even if ordinary people have a map in their hands, it is at most a map of a region, or not very specific.

Detailed and relatively detailed maps are generally only available in official hands.

The map that Li Sheng took out now is actually very detailed. Everything that should be shown on the map is clearly shown, and even the place names of various places are marked.

Everything as small as the name of a village or the name of a mountain peak are marked with extremely small characters. There are almost no errors or omissions, but it is difficult to read them.

Zou Heng estimated that the person who drew this map was probably a warlock. It would be difficult for ordinary people to leave such small handwriting and draw everything so clearly.

After staring at the map carefully for a while, Zou Heng's brows gradually wrinkled. Just as Li Sheng said, they had to go to the royal capital next, and they really only had these three options.

The fastest among them is undoubtedly the water route, which may also be the easiest. You can reach the royal capital in about ten days.

However, the danger of traveling by water is too great. Once attacked, the boat on which you are traveling will most likely not be saved. If everyone falls into the water, it will be difficult to protect Niou.

Moreover, taking the water route, most of the places you pass along the way, both sides of the river are good attack locations, and you may encounter dangers so many times that you cannot defend yourself at all, so it is really not a good choice.

If you are walking on land, should you take the official road or take a detour? This is another question. If no one notices Nioh's whereabouts, detouring may be a good choice. Avoid everyone's eyes and arrive at the royal capital quietly.

, you may not encounter too many dangers, but this is simply impossible.

From the moment King Ren returns to Yu Kingdom, the eyes on him will probably be fixed on him, and he will not be given a chance to escape from these eyes.

Now Zou Heng was thinking about whether he could steal the news, find a way to hide it from the eyes of many people under the gaze of the secret, and then somehow lead Niou all the way down the alley, maybe this would really work.

As for the last option, taking the official path, there is not much to say. The advantages and disadvantages are obvious. If you choose this path, you will have to overcome many difficulties and dangers along the way before you can finally return to the royal capital.

,

Of course, if you choose to take the official route, no one will dare to blatantly make a big noise, which is also a benefit.

Zou Heng said nothing, and King Ni was also thinking carefully about the pros and cons of these three paths.

From a personal point of view, Niou certainly hopes that he can return to the capital as soon as possible, so that he does not have to worry and be afraid, and most things can be settled, so taking the waterway is undoubtedly the fastest, but he also knows that taking the waterway

Definitely the most unwise choice.

On the surface, taking the official road is the safest, but it will also encounter dangers. As for taking a detour, it is completely meaningless if you can't avoid other people's eyes.

Taking all aspects into consideration, Niou still prefers to take the official path. At least this is the safest choice on the surface.

"Of the three paths mentioned by General Li, the official path is undoubtedly more reliable. I wonder if Master Zou has any other ideas. You might as well let us know!"

After Nioh thought for a while, he looked away from the map and said. At the end of his words, he turned his attention to Zou Heng again, wanting to hear his thoughts.

Since we have called Zou Heng and Li Sheng here today to discuss it together, we have to make a decision directly without listening to other people's opinions. You have to ask them anyway, maybe they will have some other ideas.

The idea can be more stable.

Hearing this, Zou Heng also withdrew his gaze and looked at King Ni and said: "Taking the official path is indeed safer on the surface, but it may encounter a lot of secret attacks. The other two paths are not very safe either, so

It’s up to His Highness King Ni and General Li to decide which path we should take, but I think that to be on the safe side, we might as well do some tricks to spread suspicion and draw less attention to us!”

"What does the Master mean?" King Ren asked immediately after hearing Zou Heng's words.

He originally didn't expect Zou Heng to give him any advice, but he didn't expect that the other party seemed to have some ideas, which surprised him a little and wanted to hear him explain it in detail.

Zou Heng glanced at Li Sheng, and then said: "This is not a clever plan, I just feel that the whereabouts of His Highness Ren Wang are too clear now, so no matter which way he takes, he will be easily attacked by those with evil intentions.

Instead of targeting him, it would be better to use some fictitious and real means to make people unclear about the whereabouts of His Highness Niou, so that some secretly unscrupulous people will not dare to act rashly."

"To take a step back, even if we can't hide His Highness Niou's whereabouts, if we can explore some methods prepared for His Highness Niou in advance, it will be a gain."

Zou Heng did not clarify the specific method he planned to do, but only made his intention of proposing this method clear. After hearing his words, both Niwang and Li Sheng felt that it made sense, so Li Sheng

He also nodded and said.

"The traces of His Highness Renwang are really difficult to hide, but if we can elicit the means prepared by some unscrupulous people in advance, this is also a gain. Master Zou's method is good, but how to use it depends on the master."

of!"

"This is natural, but I need some help!" Zou Heng nodded.

"If Master needs anything, please feel free to tell us. General Li and I will try our best to satisfy Master!" King Ren said quickly.

From yesterday to today, it was not in vain for King Ni to be here at Anyuan Pass. As a general guarding the border, Hong Yuechuan, the guard of Anyuan Pass, was naturally the kind of general who was loyal to the king. Through private contacts, King Ni was very

Make sure that if you ask for something now, as long as it can be done and the request is not too excessive, the other party will satisfy you.

Zou Heng was not polite. His method and the things he needed to prepare couldn't be done by himself in a short time.

"I need some materials. I will make a list later and ask His Highness Niou to prepare it. In addition, I also need something more important."

"What?" Nioh asked.
