In just a few hours, Zhangzhou City became devastated because of him.
A few days later, the Tang Dynasty was shocked and the whole country was in an uproar.
After Heavenly Master Liu Shang returned to Beijing, there was one person who was simply panicking. That was the Ming Dynasty prince Zhu Zhu. When he returned to Chang'an, he didn't expect Heavenly Master to follow him back. Could it be that he was here to get him? This guy spent the whole day
He hid in Zhu Yaoshi's mansion and refused to leave the house until the Emperor of Ming Dynasty issued a secret edict, asking him to quickly go to the northern border of the Tang Dynasty to find a young man named Xu Cong, and he must be brought back to the Ming Dynasty to make amends for his past mistakes.
So the prince Zhu Zhu hurriedly went to Northern Xinjiang, saying that he had escaped, because the feeling of being under the eyes of the Heavenly Master was so exciting that he felt that his whole body was about to collapse.
It would be better to stay in Ming Dynasty and be his prince.
In the Heavenly Master's Taoist Palace, Heavenly Master Liu Shang was shocked and dumbfounded when he heard the news about Zhangzhou. Gunpowder actually appeared in this world.
"Tell your Majesty that the young man named Xu Cong, I will spare his life."
After Liu Shang said these words, he rode the big insect towards the north, toward Zhangzhou. He wanted to take the boy back because it was close to the grassland and desert. If gunpowder was brought there and learned, the Central Plains would be devastated.
Life, he is no longer Liu Shang. After understanding a lot of the history of this world, he also knows how terrifying the grassland tribes are.
Now it's good, Zhu Ding just escaped from Chang'an and went to Northern Xinjiang, and Tianshi also went to Northern Xinjiang. It seemed destined to
Li Sheng agreed simply. Although this matter was a big deal, there were many things that could not be hidden from Li Sheng. Although the young man named Xu killed an official and rebelled, there was a reason for the incident and his feelings were pitiful, but it made him even more sad.
What he cared about was that the gunpowder formula in Xu Cong's hands was a magical weapon for conquering cities and territories, so the Tang State did not issue a wanted order for him. It was said that the Heavenly Master Liu Shang personally protected it.
But our little friend Xu Cong still hid in panic and fled towards the outside of the pass.
Emperor Li Sheng said to Heipao.
"You have to find Xu Cong before the Heavenly Master. If he is willing to serve the court and give up the formula, let him live. If he is not willing, you must find a way to find the formula and kill him." Li
Sheng ordered in a deep voice.
He did not dare to openly violate the wishes of the Heavenly Master, but he was the emperor after all, and he was also an emperor with a strong desire for control. The appearance of gunpowder gave him fear and expectation. The formula and people could only be controlled by himself.
in hand.
The man in black robe led the order and disappeared into the main hall. Soon after, a group of master spies from the imperial city quietly left the city under the cover of night and headed straight for the frontier fortress.
Chen Pi followed the steps of Tianshi back to the capital, and was going to Tianshi Taoist Palace with a pilgrimage in mind, preparing to become a disciple. Unexpectedly, Tianshi actually left the capital again and went to the north, so he had no time to be happy.
Then he followed closely and vowed not to rest until he achieved his goal.
Xu Cong had just fled to northern Xinjiang, but he did not expect to encounter the grassland army attacking the northern Xinjiang pass. Since there was always a shortage of soldiers in the north, soldiers were often recruited. In addition, although the incident happened suddenly, General Su Zhan had already predicted the movement of the grassland.
, Therefore, although this recruitment was sudden, it was carried out in an orderly manner.
Xu Cong was also recruited because he had no identity, but he was just a cook. At the age of fourteen, he could get married and have children in the Tang Dynasty, and he was considered an adult. During the war, everything was kept simple, and no one doubted his identity. After all, in the North
In a land like Xinjiang where there are constant conquests, there are many young men like this.
It was very cold in the north, and the weather was freezing. Xu Cong originally planned to leave seclusion, but it was not to surrender to the enemy, but to live incognito. He decided to take revenge and then died, but in the end he remembered
According to his parents, he is an only child. If he dies like this, the Xu family will be extinct. If he is in the pass, he may be found in any country he goes to and hand him over to the Tang State. Because the Tang State is too powerful, he made trouble
The matter is too big.
But what he didn't know was that all the countries in the world that had the strength and qualifications to know about him had already sent out their most elite experts, and they had set out with the same thoughts as Tang Emperor Li Sheng. He could really defeat so many powerful forces?
Can you survive the struggle?
However, at least he is temporarily stable for now.
Now he could hide under the eyes of the imperial court and live his life silently. He knew that no one in the military camp would live long, even the cooks. The battlefield was ruthless and he might die at some point.
On the battlefield.
However, what surprised him was that it seemed that until now, Tang State had not issued a wanted reward for him, which made him feel incredible.
"Silly boy, you are in a daze again. Are you thinking about women again? Have you grown all your hair? Hahaha..." A group of gang leaders teased Xu Cong in the camp, laughing unscrupulously.
Since Xu Cong joined the army, he seems to have changed into a different person. He is no longer taciturn, but enjoys communicating with these soldiers and gangsters. They look rough, but they are all straight-hearted and will not bully him.
He found a rare peace.
"Uncle Niu, you are making fun of me again." Xu Cong looked a little shy. Who would have thought that this young man, a month ago, killed the servants and guards of the prefecture and the prefecture's Lianfu Yamen alone in Zhangzhou.
The hands are bloody, cold and cruel.
Seeing the youthful look on his face, everyone laughed even louder. Uncle Niu patted him on the shoulder and said, "Boy, you have been in the army for three years, sows compete with girls. Everyone has been there before. There is no need to be shy. This
Nothing."
Ha ha ha ha.
This is Xu Cong's current life. He is very satisfied with his current situation. Although he doesn't know if he can continue to live like this after the war, but now, he cherishes this peace. It makes him feel that he is still a human being, not that
A butcher whose hands are stained with the blood of his enemies and whose eyes are covered with hatred.
The Chen Pi family is a famous family, but it is not a distinguished family. Many people like to associate famous families with each other. In fact, this is not the case. The former is fame, the latter is prestige, and a distinguished family is a combination of the two.
"Master, there is news about the young master. He just returned to Chang'an and hurried out of the city soon. I heard that he first went to Tianshi Taoist Palace and then hurried out of the city. Someone he knew came to tell him that the young master wanted to pay homage to him.
The Celestial Master is a teacher. When he was in Qizhou, he tied his hair again in front of everyone, bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the Celestial Master's station, and performed the master's salute." The old servant of the Chen family calmly told the Chen family master that he asked
News about Chen Pi arrived.
The head of the Chen family was stunned when he heard this. Their family was from a scholarly family, and they had been cultivating and studying for generations. They attached great importance to etiquette. Since his son had decided this matter, he couldn't say anything else.
"Then let him go. Although he is my son, as his father, I have never really understood him. Alas, he is just an idiot. The Master is a man among the gods. I don't know if he can get it."
Get what you want!"
The old servant didn't say anything. He listened silently and said to himself, "The young master has been extremely intelligent since he was a child. He is capable of literature and martial arts and can make all the scholars in the world ashamed. It would be unreasonable for the Heavenly Master not to accept the young master."
ah.
Chen Piyi Qiu Suyi was traveling in a dusty way, carrying a suitcase on his back and holding a long sword in his hand. He was not as optimistic as his old servant thought. Along the way, he was thinking about when he would see the Heavenly Master again.
How to impress the Heavenly Master, how to speak, and ask the Heavenly Master to accept you as a disciple.
Rumble~.
There was a rapid sound of horse hooves coming from behind, and it sounded like four or five horses riding on it.
Chen Pi, who was deep in thought, suddenly heard the sound and hurriedly avoided it. He stood aside with an expressionless face and waited there to let them go first.
The sound of horse hooves was getting closer and closer to him. At this moment, his body instinctively felt a dangerous energy, and at the same time, there was a sound of breaking through the air.
Phew~.
Someone actually took out an arm crossbow and shot it at him.
Chen Pi snorted coldly, raised his long sword in his hand, knocked down the crossbow arrow, turned around and looked up at them angrily and said, "Who are you, trying to kill me?" He did not expect these people to be so arrogant.
The five riders were also shocked and thought to themselves, how could this kid be so skilled? He was so careless. This time we went to Northern Xinjiang, we couldn't let him be exposed. Boy, you're unlucky to have seen us.
Who are they, but they are obviously not from Heipao's group. Otherwise, they would not be able to recognize Chen Pi. Then, they can only be spies from the enemy country. Who knows who they are from?
A group of masked knights in black were speeding along this deserted mountain road. There was nothing strange about them. No one would believe it. Seeing their attire, warning signs immediately rose in their hearts.
"Kill him and fight quickly." The leader coldly ordered.
Chen Pi was immediately furious. These guys were too arrogant. Do you think Chen Pi was so easy to kill?
"court death."
Chen Pi shouted loudly and struck preemptively. No one knew that Chen Pi not only had supernatural power, but also had superb martial arts. A long sword suddenly turned into a swimming dragon, and like a white rainbow piercing the sun, the human sword merged into one. In an instant,
He flew up to greet him.
laugh.
puff.
Um... with a pitiful howl, a masked man in black fell down, a bright red spurt spurted out from his neck, he fell off his horse, and lost his life.
With one sword shot, one person will be killed, and the blood will not stain his clothes.
Chen Pi had already stood far away, looking at them with disdain, and said coldly: "With your level of skill, you still want to kill people without restraint in our country, the Tang Dynasty. It's really ridiculous."
The leader was shocked and looked at the scene in front of him in disbelief. One of his men died in an instant. How could this be possible? Who exactly were they provoking?
Everyone was stunned. The person in front of them killed people cleanly, and struck quickly and accurately. He was not an easy person at first glance. How could they have imagined that since they entered the Tang Dynasty, they killed many people along the way in order to conceal their traces. They did not expect that they would
I met a ruthless man here.
"Tell me, who are you and why do you want to kill me?" Chen Pi's cold words made people shudder.
The leader was really riding a tiger now. The person in front of him was obviously not an ordinary person. In fact, when he knocked down the crossbow arrow with his sword just now, he should have reacted. However, he arrogantly thought that he could kill the person in front of him. He was so careless.
Only then will it cause trouble.
It wasn't much, so he simply ran away since he couldn't afford to offend him.
"Let's go." The leader shouted, immediately turned the horse's head and ran away.
The others also turned their horses and were about to escape, but it was already too late. Since they had provoked Chen Pi and attracted Chen Pi's attention, how could he be allowed to leave like this?
