Lu Yang stopped and looked at the middle-aged man who looked like a general in front of him. He looked to be in his thirties, with a strong back and a muscular body, and was wearing a silver-white armor. He was plain in appearance, but exuded a huge aura, which was similar to Zhang Jiyun's.
He is almost the same, obviously he is also a heaven-level powerhouse.
If Lu Yang is from Hechong County, he will definitely be able to recognize him. This general is none other than the master of the Duan Mansion and the general who defends the city of Hechong County. This man's name is Duan Feng, a strong man in the early stage of Heaven Level.
He received an order early in the morning to close all the city gates and prevent anyone from leaving the city. It was said that he wanted to arrest a thirteen- or fourteen-year-old boy, but it was unclear who he was.
However, just now, Duan Feng sensed a huge aura coming from the direction of the Duan Mansion. This aura contained a murderous aura, so he fell from the city tower and prepared to take a look at the Duan Mansion in front of him. However, he did not expect that as soon as he got off the city tower, he would
He saw a young man running panting in the direction of Duan Mansion, which made him suspicious.
Duan Feng stopped Lu Yang just to scare him and see if he could get any effective information.
Lu Yang was not experienced in the world, but he was not a fool. He said hurriedly: "General, I am indeed coming from the direction of Duan Mansion. Something big happened there."
"Are you the person the Duan family wants to arrest?" Duan Feng looked at Lu Yang coldly, showing a posture of preparing to take action.
Hearing this, Lu Yang's heart skipped a beat, but his face didn't change at all, and he said, "General, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand?"
Duan Feng sneered and said, "It's okay if you don't understand. You'll understand when I take you back." With that, he was about to attack Lu Yang.
Lu Yang quickly took a step back, looked at Duan Feng warily, and said neither humble nor arrogantly: "General, please respect yourself, I am not someone you can arrest casually."
Duan Feng was slightly startled, then glanced at Lu Yang in surprise, and said: "Interesting, this is the first time I have seen a half-grown child like you say such things to me. Judging from your ordinary clothes, you should not be older.
The young master of the family! I want to see why you say such things and why I can't arrest you?"
Lu Yang decided to take a gamble, gritted his teeth, took out the jade pendant from his arms, and said, "I wonder if the general knows this?"
Duan Feng has seen such a status jade pendant countless times a year. It is a symbol of nobility. Anyone who can produce a jade pendant has absolute status in the family regardless of age. Because of such a jade pendant, any family
There are only three pieces in the capital, and apart from the head of the family, only the direct heirs and great elders can have it.
Duan Feng did not dare to offend such a person. He took a closer look at the jade pendant. When he saw the word "Lu" engraved on the jade pendant, he suddenly took a breath and his eyes were full of horror. Tianyuan County
Internally, there are not many families that Duan Feng likes. He is just afraid of ordinary families, but not particularly afraid. But the Lu family is a behemoth. If he offends them, it is no different from seeking death.
A look of horror flashed through Duan Feng's eyes, and he stared at the jade pendant for a while. He found that it was indeed true. He clasped his fists and said, "Master Lu, please forgive me for offending me just now. I don't know what your orders are?"
I was wondering, why did the eldest young master of the Lu family come here and wear such clothes?
Lu Yang also saw the confusion in his heart, knowing that if he didn't tell him the reason, the other party would not let him go easily, so he imitated Lu Tao's usual tone and said in a deep voice: "General, since you have seen that this young master
I will tell you the truth about my identity. You should have heard that there are distinguished guests going to Lu Mansion this morning!"
Duan Feng did know about this, but he didn't know who the person was. He asked, "Could it be that the distinguished guest of the Duan family is Master Lu?"
Lu Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the other party did not know much. He nodded and said: "Yes, it is me. But I didn't expect that as soon as I arrived at Duan Mansion, I encountered a strong man who attacked me. He was a heaven-level strong man.
Prepare to kill everyone in the Duan family. If I hadn't reacted quickly and ran out wearing servant clothes, I might have been in trouble."
Duan Feng was still a little confused and asked again: "Master Lu, I wonder if you can provide me with the appearance and characteristics of that strong man?"
"What, you don't believe what I say?" Lu Yang's face darkened and he put on the airs of a young master.
"Master Lu, you misunderstood. This matter is of great importance. I must get detailed information." Duan Feng didn't believe Lu Yang. If he didn't ask clearly, he would still "invite" Lu Yang back.
Lu Yang thought about it and thought of a way, and said: "Not only do I know that man's appearance, but I also heard Uncle Duan mention his name. His name is Zhang Jiyun. I wonder if the general has any impression?"
Duan Feng's expression changed suddenly. He already believed Lu Yang's words and said in surprise: "It's him. I didn't expect him to come." He realized the seriousness of the matter and hurriedly said: "Master Lu, since the devil is here,
There will definitely be a killing spree. Don't run around here. I'll come back as soon as I go. If you're still worried, you can take this token and go to the city entrance to hide." After saying this, he handed a token to Lu.
Yang,###leave.
Lu Yang held the token and was filled with ecstasy. He wanted to deceive Duan Feng, but he didn't expect to get a token. Looking at the closed city gate not far away, Lu Yang took the token ### and went there
, as soon as he arrived in front of the city gate, two guards stopped him. Coincidentally, they were the same two guards who stopped him when he entered the city yesterday.
Wang Qiang and Chen Bo glanced at each other and both recognized Lu Yang. The former said, "Little brother, why are you here again?"
This time, the two people's attitudes were completely different, because they had just seen Lu Yang and Duan Feng talking. They only saw Lu Yang showing something to Duan Feng, and Duan Feng handed something to Lu Yang.
Then ### left. The two of them couldn't figure out Lu Yang's identity, so they naturally didn't dare to offend him. It was not impossible if the other party had a special status and deliberately pretended to be poor and went out to play.
Since Lu Yang pretended to be a young master, he was ready to continue pretending, and said coldly: "You two have guessed my identity! Yes, I teased you yesterday, but I didn't expect that I really deceived you. You two
Do you want to know what I said to your general? I asked him to go to Duan Mansion to get me something, and then go find me outside the city."
The two people's eyes widened. They really couldn't believe this. This was too ridiculous!
Chen Bo offended Lu Yang yesterday, and now he wanted to try his best to please him. Regardless of whether it was true or not, he hurriedly said: "Young Master, if you want to go out of the city, my subordinates will send you out of the city right now."
Wang Qiang grabbed him and reminded him: "The general has an order that no one is allowed to leave the city. Have you forgotten it?"
"Is the young master an ordinary person?" Chen Bo glared at him and said flatteringly, "Young master, do you need to prepare a carriage?"
Wang Qiang still felt that something was wrong. He stepped in front of Chen Bo, cupped his fists and said, "Young Master, my subordinates cannot disobey military orders. If you want to go out of the city, you must show the order to leave the city."
Lu Yang touched his arms, then spread his palms and said, "I don't have the hand letter, can I have the token?"
In the country of Western Chu, military orders are like mountains. Anyone who holds a general's token is like seeing a general.
After seeing the token, both of them were startled. Then they knelt down on one knee, cupped their fists and said, "I have seen the general."
Lu Yang didn't have time to talk nonsense here. He had to leave the city quickly and waved his hands: "You two, get up! I order you to open the city gate now."
The two of them did not dare to disobey military orders. They opened the city gate and Chen Bo said respectfully: "Young Master, do you want me to take you out of the city?"
"No, I just want to see if your general can find me within the stipulated time. If you follow me, won't you expose my hiding place?" Lu Yang was completely imitating Lu Tao's tone. At his age,
Although it is a little small, it imitates the look of the dandy young master very well.
The two nodded in agreement and watched Han Bin leave the city gate.
After a moment, a middle-aged man jumped down from the city tower. He glanced at Han Bin who was leaving, then looked at the two of them, and asked, "What are you two doing? Why did you let that kid go?"
Chen Bo felt nervous and said hurriedly: "Master Captain, don't say that your subordinates didn't remind you. If the young master hears you calling him brat, your official position will be difficult to protect."
The captain's eyes widened and he said in surprise: "That little...who is that young master?"
When Chen Bo saw Lu Yang, he briefly explained what happened twice before saying in panic: "Master Xiaowei, he can make General Duan take the initiative to send the token. You can imagine how powerful the family behind him is."
"Chen Bo, thank you for reminding me, otherwise I really made a mistake." The captain touched the cold sweat on his forehead and said gratefully, "Good brother, I will not treat you badly in the future."
The three of them had no idea. They thought they had curried favor with a young master, but they didn't expect to let go of someone they shouldn't have let go.
After Lu Yang left Hechong County, he ran all the way. He did not dare to take the official road and chose to escape through the dense forest.
Duan Feng and Zhang Jiyun have the same cultivation level, and neither can kill the other in a short period of time. If Duan Feng leads a group of guards to repel Zhang Jiyun, he will definitely know his identity. If Duan Feng pursues him at the fastest speed, only
It takes a stick of incense to catch up. The movement speed of a heaven-level expert is terrifying, and Lu Yang can't get rid of him no matter what.
Lu Yang ran forward with all his strength, and he didn't know how long he ran. When the sky darkened and night fell, he still didn't stop.
After running for so long in one breath, Lu Yang was already exhausted. His legs seemed to be filled with lead and it was very difficult to run.
Lu Yang still gritted his teeth and walked forward with dragging steps. The farther he escaped, the greater his chance of survival. Only by surviving could he avenge his mother.
Finally, Lu Yang collapsed from exhaustion. In his sleep, he vaguely heard noise coming from him.
There were footsteps, noises, and the sound of long swords cutting through thorns. I don't know how many people came searching for me.
Lu Yang was lying in the dense woods. His tired body made it impossible for him to stand up even if he wanted to move. He could only wait for his fate to be pronounced.
In the darkness, the bright lights are getting closer and closer. At this speed, it won't take long to search here.
Half an hour later, when everyone was searching nearby, a familiar voice suddenly sounded, "Stop, everyone stop..."
