Chapter 327 Clothes Corner
The Great Chu Empire spans thousands of miles from east to west, north to south, and although it is not as far as the vastness of the Shenzhou Continent, as the leading country in China, it is extremely vast. From south to north, the spring, summer, autumn and winter of the year are particularly distinct on this ancient land. However, if you say that your impression of winter is still deeper from the vast area north of Jingjiang, so such poems such as "The scenery of the north is frozen thousands of miles away, and snow falls thousands of miles...", which are popular in the north, are mostly from the northern region.
But in fact, because of the huge area and the blockage of information, many people actually don’t know that in addition to the vast area of the northern region of the Great Chu Empire, the Chongchuan area located in the southwest of the empire also has this scene. Especially the Manila Mountains that stretch thousands of miles across the western border of the Chongchuan River, compared to the winter in the northern region, it is also a good idea to give in!
Huang Yixiang has never been a person who cares about his image. When his former comrades joked with his fat body, he not only did not feel ashamed, but was proud, so that the saying "Have you ever seen such a flexible fat man?" became his catchphrase! But tonight, he felt very angry about his fat body for the first time in his life, because the area where the Mandarin Mountains is located has had heavy snow for several days. When it gets closer to Mandarin Peak, the thick snow makes it difficult for the horses to move. When he is anxious, he has to abandon the horses and walk. It is not until midnight that he has reached more than ten miles of the foot of Mandarin Peak.
"I deserve to die. I actually let King Yi come to the appointment alone!" Huang Yixiang, who was planning to stop and observe the surrounding situation and take a rest to make up for the supplies, suddenly saw the light of fire not far away, and couldn't help but curse himself secretly and said to himself: "It seems that something happened to King Yi really, otherwise in the cold winter, who would be wandering in this wilderness in the middle of the night! Alas, I hope King Yi must not have anything to do, otherwise I, Fatty Huang, will really become a sinner for the ages!"
Although Huang Yixiang was extremely anxious, the years of cultivation of Chixin Tower still made him calm down instinctively, put on a white cloak prepared in advance, and sneaked towards the lights quietly. After a while, he gradually could clearly see the lights where there were seven or eight people sitting around the sharing of lamb roasted on the food fire, and they could still hear their swearing. In order to prevent the whereabouts from being exposed, Huang Yixiang stopped moving and crawled forward. After a few minutes, he finally came to the foot of a big tree that was more than ten meters away from the other party.
"I'll tell you guys, what happened in the Minwang Pavilion?"
"Who knows! Anyway, it's definitely not a trivial matter, otherwise the head of the family would not have brought Elder Chonggu and others to come together!"
"Hey! I know it's definitely not a trivial matter, but you guys say that this is not the case. There must be a portrait or something. Although it's remote and tight, there will be some people. We can't catch people just by seeing them, right?"
"That's right, it's dark, let alone at night, even during the day, if someone deliberately hides in this snow, who can find it?"
"Shh, please keep your mouth low. I see that when Elder Dongbofeng ordered this matter, it was obviously much more serious than before, which means that the person we were looking for was definitely not simple, and..." After subconsciously glanced around, the man continued: "And, I saw that Elder Dongbofeng was obviously a little unnatural, as if he was injured!"
"Is that true? Who can hurt Elder Dongbofeng with such a powerful martial arts? You won't be blind, right?
"Bah, you're just blind! Your whole family is blind!"
Wang Song quickly pulled off a roasted lamb leg and handed it to Zhang Zhu to apologize: "Hehehe, Brother Zhang, don't be surprised, I'm just a shady man, you continue!"
Zhang Zhu glared at Wang Song again with annoyance, then chewed a large bite of meat on the lamb leg and continued, "I tell you, this is not the most incredible thing. You all know that this time the head of the family rarely brought the four elders with him, but have you noticed that after the head of the family came down from the Lord Min, do you always feel that there are fewer people?"
Wang Song and others thought for a while and then said in surprise: "Brother Zhang, don't say it, it seems that this is really the case. It seems that I have never seen Elder Jin Ye!"
Everyone wanted to continue inquiring about the next thing, but Zhang Zhu obviously had limited knowledge and it was not advisable to make this matter public. He ordered everyone to keep their mouths shut and sighed: "Anyway, I vaguely feel that something big is going to happen. We small minions, just follow the instructions of our superiors to do our own things. As for the result, we can't control it or not. OK, we have almost rested. It's time to set off and continue searching!"
"Brother Zhang, this ghost weather is really cold and uncomfortable. Why don't you let your brothers rest for a while? It's late at night, no one will come to check it anyway!"
"Take my words like the wind in my ears, right? Wang Song, you kid, remember, don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of one. If an elder or a big man in the family suddenly comes, once you find that we are lazy and lazy, you may not be sure that our lives will be gone!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Song subconsciously touched his neck, and then smiled and said, "Brother Zhang is saying that life is more important, so let's go!" After Wang Song and others left for a while, Huang Yixiang got up from the snow, moved his somewhat stiff body, left a mark unique to Chixin Tower on the trunk, and then quietly headed towards the direction where Wang Feng of Min was.
As he got closer to the Min-Minister Wangfeng, Huang Yixiang's tense mood also tightened a little. In Huang Yixiang's analysis, Wang Song's group of people should belong to the outermost search circle just now. At present, he was obviously in the middle to the inner circle. After carefully avoiding a group of more than ten people's search teams again, Huang Yixiang began to carefully consider his next action: "According to Zhou Boyan's layout, even if the core Min-Minister Wangfeng Mountain is not at the foot of three steps, one whistle, five steps, one post, it is probably not that bad. And as Brother Zhang described, the Zhou family is now full of experts here. Should I go back and discuss with the lady first before taking action, or take a risk and try to go to Min-Minister Gong Pavilion first?"
Compared to Liu Xinsheng, who looks cold and always has a cold face, he gives people a sense of reliability, although Huang Yixiang usually gives people a bad impression, he is an absolutely reliable comrade in the army when performing his mission. It is because among the many good players in Chixin Tower that Zhou Miaoling recommended him and Liu Xinsheng to Qu Xinchi. His hesitation at the moment is not to be greedy for life and fear of death, but to weigh the pros and cons and avoid unnecessary sacrifices. At the same time, he knew very well that Liu Xinsheng returned to Zhou Miaoling to report to Zhou Miaoling.
The latter will definitely lead people to come without stopping. If he, as a pioneer, did not find any valuable news, he would be ashamed of them. Soon, he stopped hesitating: "I can't care so much. I, Fatty Huang, have never been afraid of anything in my life. At worst, I will save this life for the Pavilion Master. Once I really have a few mistakes, the Zhou family's lackeys will be alert. When the movement is big, the young ladies will definitely be able to detect it. Then I will be worthy of death!"
As Huang Yixiang expected, when he approached the foot of the foot of the Minwangfeng Mountain carefully, many camps had already been set up here. Although the nearby area was not brightly lit, the dense patrol team made him unable to find any opportunity to go up the mountain for a while: "For the sake of the current plan, it seems that he has to wait for more than an hour. When it is Yin time, when they are the most sleepy, I will act on the camera again!"
In order to avoid being discovered as much as possible, Huang Yixiang covered the snow in the hidden place as a cover. It was not until the third hour of Yin and after confirming that he could take action, he slowly moved his stiff body out of the snow, wiped a handful of snow on his face to wake up, and quietly walked towards the foot of the mountain.
As Huang Yixiang expected, although the fires around the camp were still burning violently at this time, there were obviously fewer people around, and the left-behind people also looked like they were crumbling and sleepy, but even so, he still did not dare to neglect. Finally, after about a quarter of an hour, he finally came to the steps at the foot of the mountain. Huang Yixiang raised his head and looked at the dark mountain road under the night sky and said in his heart: "I don't have much time anymore. I must hurry down the mountain before dark, otherwise once I startle the snake, my subsequent actions will be unpredictable!"
Fortunately, the environment in which Min Wangfeng is located is very harsh and there are few stops along the way. Therefore, there are not many temporary posts arranged along the way. In addition to this reason, Dong Bofeng believes that since Qu Xinchi jumped off the cliff, the possibility of appearing on this mountain road basically does not exist. Because of this, in addition to the wind and snow on the mountain, the guards on the mountain road have become much more relaxed. About half an hour later, under Huang Yixiang's full strength, he finally arrived at the place where Min Wang Pavilion is located.
Looking at the flashing lights in the Minwang Pavilion not far away, Huang Yixiang couldn't help but whisper, "This is probably the place where the Pavilion Master and Zhou Boyan meet!" Huang Yixiang quietly groped outside the gate of the Minwang Pavilion, and in a broken corner, scanning the situation inside with the firelight in the house. When he suddenly saw two corpses lying on the ground in the corner, his heart couldn't help but beat rapidly, and an inexplicable sense of sadness surged. After enduring the sadness, he confirmed that the person with broken arms was an old man, and the shocking chest was pierced.
The man was a burly man. After all, he did not meet Qu Xinchi's physical characteristics, his heart was beating violently and slowly calmed down: "Although the old man didn't know who it was, that burly man should be Elder Jin Ye in Wang Song and the others' mouths. Alas, I don't know what the Pavilion Master is like!" After pondering for a moment, Huang Yixiang couldn't help but turn around and turn his eyes to the square behind him, and he couldn't help but analyze in his heart: "Looking at the death of the two, it was obviously a fierce battle. Although the Minwang Pavilion was dilapidated, it was obviously not a battlefield. So, the real battlefield should be this square!"
Time was tight, and Huang Yixiang did not dare to neglect, so he quietly searched the entire square. However, from that battle to now, the traces on the entire square had long been covered by heavy snow. Just as time passed, Huang Yixiang was still getting nothing, and was a little depressed. He suddenly found a place with obvious bulge. However, after he pushed away the snow, what he saw couldn't help but make his back feel cold. Under the cover of the snow, it was Mr. Zhu's arm cut off by Dong Bofeng: "It's not a solution to continue like this. Where can I find clues to the Pavilion Master?"
Just when Huang Yixiang felt confused and anxious, he suddenly looked at the guardrail that he ignored, and then said, "Why did I ignore this? Judging from what I saw and heard all the way tonight, Zhou Boyan was obviously planning well. There were a group of masters on the mountain, and the upper and lower parts were surrounded by his people. There must be no way to hide in the Minwang Pavilion. If I were the head of the Pavilion, the only choice was..."
Without further ado, Huang Yixiang searched carefully along the guardrail. After a while, he found the guardrail gap that was angrily destroyed by Chonggu because he failed to catch Qu Xinchi. Then he searched around with the guardrail gap as the center. After a while, he finally found the corner of Qu Xinchi's clothes abandoned by Chonggu. At this point, he had already understood Qu Xinchi's general situation, and then took advantage of the night before dawn to quickly go to the foot of the Minwangfeng Mountain...
