"What's the noise about? Didn't you see me busy? Why didn't you see the postman?"
"It was the woman with her face covered behind who brought it. Oh, please take a look at this letter by the way. It said it was introduced by the magistrate of Xihe County."
"Master Wei, I'm sorry. Please sit down for a while. If something happens in the army, I don't dare to delay you. I'll take a look first."
"Master Liu, please excuse me." Wei Chenliang looked at Qi Xu outside the tent, but he didn't expect that this girl also had a background.
Liu Lei quickly opened the letter Qi Xu brought, and there were numbers on it. "Liu Lei, Qi Xu, who is carrying the letter, wants to go into the desert to hunt horses and meet his demands. Please don't ask any questions. I order Zhang Cheng." Liu Lei's eyes went dark.
, almost fainted;
Zhang Heng and he were both from the Zhang family, so no matter what the letter said, it was still necessary to read it. There were only a few words in the letter: "My brother, it has been three years since we have been apart from Ganzhou. I miss you so much that Zhou Qi is with me."
I'm so kind, please help him hunt the horse, don't ask anything else, stupid brother, Zhang Heng."
Brother Zhang, Brother Zhang, I can only apologize to you first. Liu Lei sighed in his heart, but still ordered: "Let them all come in."
Seeing everyone entering the tent, Liu Lei, who turned into a bitter-faced person, said: "Let's not rush to eat now. There is something I want to tell everyone first. Oh, everyone, please sit down. That's it. The armament hall is here
I went to harness horses half a month ago and took away a total of fifty camels. Later, the outpost in the desert reported that there was a rare sandstorm in the desert. Because I was worried about something happening to those Wu Hanlins, I sent my lieutenant there five days ago.
In response, ten more camels were sent, and now only the last two camels in the camp are available..."
"Just two peaks, at most we will have two less people!" Wei Chenliang said magnanimously.
"Master Wei..."
"Master Liu, don't say you want to change your mind." Wei Chenliang had already seen that there must be a reason why Liu Lei was so eager to talk about the camel.
"Master Liu, what should I do?" He Qizhou was a little anxious. What if something happened to his brothers?
"You, wait until the rescuers come back!" Liu Lei said.
"What about me?" Qi Xu said in a deep voice.
"I, I am discussing with Mr. Wei."
"No need to discuss." Wei Chenliang came all the way and didn't want to wait any longer. Besides, if he delayed his return until August or September, it would be no joke if Jiayuguan was breached.
Liu Lei became anxious now and said: "Master Wei, I just promised you, but this is Lord Zhang's military order. As a subordinate, I have to obey it."
"What military order?" Wei Chenliang asked.
"This order was written by Zhang Cheng and General Bing Zhang himself. I, I can't disobey the order. The military order asked me to help Miss Qi enter the desert. You see, I risked my life to tell you all the contents of the order.
Why don't you wait a few days? I'll have people keep an eye on the outside of the desert and try to get you to set off as early as possible."
"Oh, it turns out it was Zhang Cheng who wrote the note. Originally, I didn't want to take out my father's letter for fear of being laughed at by my subordinates. In this case, Mr. Liu might as well take a look at this letter. I don't know what General Marshal Ganzhou said.
What's more important is that the words of the Deputy Commander-in-Chief of Suzhou are true." Wei Chenliang took out a letter from his sleeve, sat on his seat and shook it towards Liu Lei.
Big beads of sweat broke out on Liu Lei's forehead. He stepped forward to receive the letter. The content was that Wei Boyan asked him to take good care of his son, prepare enough supplies and guides, and not make any mistakes. The seal of the General Military Mansion couldn't be more familiar.
.
"Qi, Miss Qi, please tell Mr. Zhang, you see, General Wei has an order, so we can only let Mr. Wei go first..."
"No, he is going to hunt horses. I am going to save people now!" Qi Xu replied decisively.
"I can also save people." Wei Chenliang said coldly. Now he has completely taken the initiative. If he can defeat these two people who made mistakes on the road, he can still earn some face.
Feng Yan was enjoying the excitement, so she interrupted and asked, "Can't we send more horses? They can also hump things."
Wei Chenliang enthusiastically taught: "Miss Yan, you don't know something now. To get to the foot of the Altai Mountains, you have to cross four hundred miles of desert. The camels drink enough water when they set off. They don't need to drink any more water after walking two to three hundred miles. And
The horse is different. The camel's food is not enough for it to eat on its own, so you can't take the horse with you. And to be on the safe side, it's best to have one person with one camel, or at most two people with one camel."
"It's okay if I give in. You, me, Zhou Qi, plus a guide, it's just the four of us. We have to listen to me on the road! We'll set off before dawn tomorrow!" Qi Xu could only see that the situation had changed.
Concede, but when he said this, his demeanor changed, and he seemed to be a completely different person.
"Why Zhou Qi? I have to accompany the young master. Besides, it's not you who has the final say now. Who are you? How can we listen to you?" Seeing that Wei Chenliang was a little overwhelmed by the opponent's momentum, Zhang Bo suddenly showed his mastery.
True color.
"That's right, please don't embarrass Mr. Liu. Are you asking him to defy the will of the Commander-in-Chief?" Of course Wei Chenliang doesn't want to listen to others. Who will own the horse he pulls? He was very well prepared this time.
"I..." Qi Xu was speechless for a moment.
"Mr. Liu, I have another letter here. It's from Mr. Han. Please take a look at it. I heard that he holds Shang Fang's sword in Suzhou. In addition to the letter from Mr. Zhang, which one is more important?
Please consider it carefully." He Qizhou's loud words almost knocked Liu Lei unconscious.
Liu Lei took the letter from Qi Zhou. As expected, it was written by Han Chong himself. He also stamped it with the seal of the General Military Mansion and asked him to prepare camels and guides for Zhou Qi.
The chief guard was also shocked at this time. What on earth is going on? Fortunately, he didn't say anything rude just now, otherwise he would not know how he died. Suddenly, an idea came to him and he approached Liu Lei, who was staring blankly at the letter.
After whispering something, Liu Lei seemed to have grasped a life-saving straw. He nodded repeatedly, then lowered his head and said in the tent:
"Due to the confusion of military orders, I am really helpless. All the guides have been sent out, and there are only two camels. Please decide among yourselves. I feel uncomfortable in my stomach, so I will leave first. Someone will arrange your food and accommodation later." After finishing speaking,
Without even saying hello, he lowered his head and rushed out through the back door.
There was silence in the tent for a while, but it was Uncle Zhang who was the first to ask: "You two have been disguised all the way, who are you? Can you tell us?"
He Qizhou didn't want to expose his identity so early. If the bastard general in the dark knew that he had repeatedly ruined his good deeds, he would not only be in danger, but also his relatives and friends. Even if the other party guessed it, as long as he didn't point it out,
It can still be denied, just like when Shi Lan guessed that he was the murderer, so he could only shake his head and said: "You can just call me Zhou Qi."
"Just call me Qi Xu." Qi Xu didn't want to expose his identity, mainly because he didn't want to expose it to He Qizhou. Even though everyone knew it, they still had to show off their temper.
"In this case, let's make friends with force. I'll let Uncle Zhang fight with you. Should you two come together or one by one?"
Wei Chenliang could only throw out his last resort, regardless of Zhang Bo secretly scolding him for being a fool. If one of the two had tapped Fei Yuan's Zhaotong acupoint, it would be really difficult for him to deal with it.
, with two against two, the certainty is much greater.
"Your men can come together, we are still two people!" Qi Xu said coldly. She and Feng Yan had already had a close relationship, so she also listened to what Wei Chenliang told Feng Yan. She knew that He Qizhou's skills were strong and powerful.
He has made amazing progress, so he is not afraid of Wei Chen having many good people at all.
"Your injuries are really all healed?" He Qizhou felt even happier when he heard what Qi Xu said. Unfortunately, Qi Xuli ignored him.
"Okay! How to compare?" Uncle Zhang was afraid that Wei Chenyuan would have to support him, so he hurriedly agreed. The momentum that the other party showed just now made even him, who is in the middle realm of the Eight Meridians, feel a little guilty. You must know that unless it is the royal family, no one can become a sect.
Being willing to be a disciple, Ba Mai is almost the highest level for people like them.
"Tell me. It's best to decide it today so that Liu Lei can make arrangements. We don't mean to embarrass you, but it's important to save people," Qi Xu said.
This sentence aroused Uncle Zhang's anger: "Okay, it seems that you think we are sure to win, so let's go to the grass in front of the tent to draw. We are not weak. If you feel that you can't hold it anymore, don't force it.
how?"
"Come on! Let's go." Qi Xu turned around and walked out of the tent. He Qizhou immediately followed him. This Xu Mu, Chi Yuan who dared to challenge the peak of eight meridians when he was only five meridians, is naturally more courageous now.
Stronger.
Feng Yan's martial arts attainments are not low. She was as happy as a child at this time, pulling the horse through the passage: "Let's go and have a look!"
Seeing that Feng Yan was not surprised at all, Ma Tong and Wei Chenliang asked at the same time: "Do you know them?"
"I don't know, oh no, I know them. Aren't they Qi Xu and Zhou Qi?" Feng Yan didn't even know how to lie anymore, she just wanted to go to a good show.
Uncle Zhang looked at the four people around him. One was in the Sixth Meridian, who was usually quite arrogant. One was in the upper realm of the Five Meridians and was experienced. The other two were both in the Fourth Meridian. They were in the same position as Zhao Tong and the others. The four of them took turns.
On night watch, the ones who relied most heavily on were the Six Meridians and the Five Meridians. After everyone stood still, Zhang Bo assigned tasks and said: "Zhou Qi is both internal and external. It is difficult to defeat him at once. That Qi Xu probably knows the Hidden Veins."
The technique is from a well-known and authentic sect, with at least six meridians, but it seems to be still a little injured. The four of you will surround Zhou Qi later, and I will defeat Qi Xu as soon as possible, and then I will support you."
"Just two little boys under twenty, Mr. Zhang, why don't you let your third brother raid the formation for you?" The man with six meridians had already heard that He Qizhou, who was practicing kung fu, only had four meridians, and he despised Uncle Zhang's courage.
I'm afraid of getting into trouble, I'll knock him down with one move later, and make a fool of Uncle Zhang.
"Stop talking, just do as I say! My subordinates must not show mercy!" Uncle Zhang was a little annoyed that this man was brainless.
