Chapter 69 Hidden Longan
On the next day, a large carriage galloped on a crowded official road. A large flag embroidered with the word "王" was fluttering in the wind. Four men in strong costumes rode four red horses to protect the carriage in the middle.
There were endless convoys along the way, but after seeing the flag floating on the carriage, these convoys made way and dared not stop them.
A middle-aged man was half lying in the carriage. Beside him was a little girl in men's clothing. The little girl had pretty eyebrows and skin better than snow. Her big watery eyes looked out through the gaps floating in the curtains of the car.
"Youran, tell me about the past when you met Brother Han." The middle-aged man supported himself and asked the little girl beside him.
When the little girl heard the middle-aged man calling her, she obediently retracted her head, and said with a smile on her face: "Well, uncle, you were injured that day. I saw that you hadn't eaten for a long time, so I wanted to go out to find something to eat. The elder brother's convoy lit fewer torches, so I wanted to steal some food, but before I got close enough, I was caught by those vicious people. Uncle, you teach me not to talk to outsiders casually, for fear of being recognized as a Jiayue people, so I pretended to be mute. The elder brother didn't make things difficult for me. He gave me some food, gave me some silver, and let me go."
"That big brother just let you go?" The middle-aged man frowned, with a little confused tone.
"Yes, my elder brother is very good. Later, I returned to the cave, but I found that you, Uncle, fainted and I was frightened. Later, I wanted to find my elder brother to save you, but I was afraid that he would recognize me as a Jiayue country, so I was caught again when hesitated. At that time, my elder brother seemed to be going into the mountain, so I had to stop my elder brother and save you." Youran said with a blink of her big, lively eyes.
"He was going to enter the mountain at that time? He was stopped by you, and then stayed there for two or three days for me?" Qin Xun's brows frowned completely. He couldn't figure out what the boy wanted and why he was so concerned about him! It was impossible that the boy really had a innocent heart, but just a simple kind heart!
"Brother Han is very good. Even if I am from Jiayue, I don't want to make things difficult for us. I also sent someone to send us away. Now I'm not afraid of being chased." Youran held his little hand in front of his chest, with a look of gratitude in his eyes.
Qin Xun was very puzzled. He really couldn't think of anything on his body that others were thinking about. After being depressed for a while, he seemed to suddenly think of something, and a cold sweat broke out in an instant. Could it be that his real purpose of traveling west was revealed? But he immediately ruled out this speculation. His real purpose of traveling west had never been told to anyone, and it was impossible to reveal it.
Qin Xun couldn't help feeling a little sad when he remembered his purpose of traveling west. He spent decades of time abandoning his wife and daughter, traveling hundreds of thousands of miles from the easternmost boundless Black Sea. Along the way, he followed the terrain of various countries, detected Feng Shui, and looked for a Feng Shui hidden longan recorded in his ancestors' notes, but it did not appear at all.
When he thought of the description of the hidden dragon in his ancestor's letter, his somewhat sentimental heart became firm.
Hidden dragon eye is a natural strange thing! It is not an ordinary thing. It becomes an embryo in three hundred years, forms in three thousand years, and turns into a dragon in three thousand years. It is difficult for ordinary people to take all diseases and cannot invade all poisons, and achieve immortal roots.
Qin Xun firmly believed in the records of the note, because his ancestor was a man from an immortal family.
Calculate the days, the land of Hidden Longyan will be born, and it will become a strange thing in the world. But now he has not found the strange place where Hidden Longyan is born, which makes him very upset.
Qin Xun's eyes closed slightly, and he took the brief map of Wu that Han Ming had drawn for him yesterday, and looked at it casually. Suddenly, his eyes widened and his hands holding the map trembled.
He found that the trend of a mountain range in the deserted state beside the Wu Kingdom was sixty-seven points similar to the records in his ancestors' notes.
...
Seven days later, Han Ming and the thirty-year-old guards finally arrived at the base of the Zhu family's black guards and also saw the secret spies of the Jiayue Kingdom coming and going on the hills in the distance.
A few days later, the four black guards who were originally responsible for escorting Qin Xun and Chu Youran also came here. They told Han Ming a message. Qin Xun and Chu Youran used the excuse to explain it in the same dark night, left a letter of thanks and left secretly. Several black guards searched for a circle but couldn't find it, so they had to come back to report.
Han Ming was indeed a little surprised. It seemed that Qin Xun might have hidden something from him. However, Han Ming did not have much emotional fluctuation. Now he knew the maps of the countries and got what he wanted. Whether Qin Xun was dead or alive had nothing to do with him. But Han Ming didn't know that he had passed by a strange thing that was rare in a century!
In a separate cave, Han Ming glanced through the letter of thanks left by Qin Xun, and then a small flame appeared on his fingers, and directly burned the letter paper to ashes.
Han Ming looked at the cluster of flames at the tip of his fingers, and a smile appeared on his face. Now his fire bomb technique is becoming more and more proficient, and it is extremely easy to use.
Han Ming tucked it with one hand, and the flame turned into a ray of blue smoke. It rose up and then dissipated. A stream of sandalwood instantly filled the air. He took a deep breath and a hint of satisfaction appeared on his face.
"Mixing the poison into the flame and swing it can spread quickly and make it more difficult to detect it. It is a good way to plot against others. However, if you want to use it for actual combat, it still requires long-term practice, otherwise it will inevitably hurt your own people. If you use it when the Black Guard and the Spy fight, it will inevitably cause accidental injuries, and this requires relatively high levels of poison!" Han Ming slowly retracted his fingers back his sleeves, and then began to calculate the current situation here.
The Zhu family's black guards can be said to have been dispatched in full swing. More than 900 black guards have gathered here. In addition, the Black Evil Huang Evil, the left and right palm envoy of the Huayi Sect, the four major guardians, and the 16th branch rudder master.
The Chi family was previously severely attacked by the secret spies of the Jiayue Kingdom and was almost destroyed, so they did not have much power, only more than 200 blood guards and several commander-level masters.
In addition to these forces, the Zhu and Chi families also sent some family members, including nine adult masters from the Zhu and Chi families, five side masters, and some internal slaves.
Logically speaking, with such a large lineup, Han Ming, the young master of foreign surname, seemed very inconspicuous, but the black guards would not think so. Han Ming prepared a clean cave for him as soon as he arrived, which was better than those side masters.
As for the strength of the secret spies of the Jiayue Kingdom on the hill not far away, it is a bit uncertain. The secret spies of the Qiyue Kingdom entrenched here are at least 1,500, and they are all selected masters from the Qiyue Kingdom family. They may not lose to the Zhu family's black guards in one-on-one single battle, and the strength shown by the senior spies is not weaker than the commanders of the Black Guards.
The huge gap in strength made the Black Guard and the Blood Guard not dared to take the initiative. Not long ago, General Lin Yuqing and Zhu Chi's heads sent another news that the Black Guard and the Blood Guard should just restrain the spies of the Jiayue Kingdom and prevent them from going out to destroy and disrupt them everywhere, without having to confront them head-on.
In this way, the Black Guard and the Blood Guard Alliance became even more unwilling to take the initiative to start a war with the spy.
The strength of the spy can be said to be far higher than that of the Black Guard and the Blood Guard, but the spys had no intention of attacking at all, but they just couldn't hold on to it. It seemed that as long as the black Guard and the Blood Guard were restrained, it would be fine.
This also made Hei Guard and Blood Guard breathe a sigh of relief. They didn't want to confront the spy head-on. If they really fought, their chances of winning were very small, and even if they won, they would be greatly damaged.
The Zhu family's Heiwei and the secret spies of the Jiayue Kingdom were unwilling to go to war, so although this place was filled with a solemn atmosphere, it was still very quiet overall.
Han Ming was happy without fighting here. He practiced everywhere, and there were many mountains and rivers here. Heiwei could occasionally find some strange herbs that were difficult to find in the outside world, which was of some help to his nameless oral trance.
Such a strange situation lasted for more than three months, and no party did anything to break the peace. Han Ming has been quite comfortable these days and has completely healed the injuries on his leg.
"Chun'er comes out." Han Ming's thoughts came into the hairpin on his head.
An invisible black smoke slowly floated out of the hairpin above Han Ming's head, and then circled around ten feet in front of Han Ming's body, slowly condensed into a human form, which was Han Ming's only ghost pet Chun'er.
As soon as Chun'er came out, she stood timidly not far away from Han Ming, not daring to offend him. There was a lot of fear in her eyes when she looked at Han Ming.
Han Ming frowned and said, "What, am I ugly? You seem to be a little afraid of me?"
Chun'er didn't dare to speak, but just looked at Han Ming with a timid look on the spot, as if Han Ming was a terrifying ghost.
No wonder Chun'er was afraid of Han Ming. Han Ming's attitude towards this ghost pet these days was a bit too much. In order to force Chun'er to adapt to the sun, he used fire bomb technique to hurt her soul, allowing her to keep it in the hairpin for several days before he recovered.
Although Han Ming could not simply judge people by his appearance, the ghost pet's appearance was really cunning. On one side, his face was covered in blood and blood, and the thick bones could be seen. I'm afraid that no one would be willing to get close to her as long as he was a man.
Han Ming looked at the face of half of the fairy-like evil ghost in front of him again, but saw Chun'er's very pitiful eyes again. Only then did Han Ming remember that Chun'er's mind was still a child.
"Has I used to treat her before?" Han Ming said to himself in his heart.
"Okay, I have something to do. You can go to the opposite mountain to explore their situation and see if they have any abnormal movements. After doing it well, I won't punish you. As a ghost, you are very sensitive to the breath of strangers, and strangers can't see you. This thing should be very simple for you!" Han Ming squeezed out a smile on his face.
Chun'er became very happy when she heard Han Ming saying that she would not punish her again in the future. Her intact face instantly looked as beautiful as a flower, and even Han Ming couldn't help but lose his mind. However, when Han Ming saw the trembling flesh and blood on Chun'er's other face, he couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"Go," Han Ming waved to Chun'er and signaled her to leave.
Chun'er bowed to Han Ming and then turned into a few wisps of black smoke and dissipated, floating outside the cave.
After Chun'er disappeared outside the cave, Han Ming remembered Chun'er's face and shook his head with regret. If Chun'er's face was intact, she would definitely be the most beautiful woman he had ever seen.
