Chapter 209 Xie Xun Was Captured

"As for the glass factory, you have to hurry up and make arrangements."

Bai Shu said to Yan Yuan: "I guess the news that the princes and nobles in most cities like mirrors will soon spread, and those rich businessmen will definitely buy them at any cost."

"Yes, the subordinate has already been arranged."

Yan Yuan nodded.

"Well, I won't tell you anymore about the confidentiality of the glass formula. You should pay attention to it yourself."

Bai Shu nodded.

"Yes, I'll save you. If nothing happens, I will resign."

Seeing Bai Shu bowing his head to process the documents, Yan Yuan bowed and left.

Not long after Yan Yuan left, a guard hurried in: "Leader, an urgent secret message from Dadu!"

"Oh?"

Bai Shu raised his eyebrows, "Bring it here!"

Taking the carrier pigeon from the guard's hand, Bai Shu took out the secret letter.

"Master, my subordinates have just learned that Cheng Kun, the elder Xuanming and others have raided Guangmingding, intending to capture the Lion King."

bass!
After seeing the contents of the letter, Baizhu immediately sat up from his chair.

"Go, call Yang Zuoshi!"

Bai Shu spoke to the guards and ordered.

Soon, Yang Xiao walked in quickly from outside.

"Subordinate..."

Yang Xiao was about to salute when he was stopped by Bai Shu: "Yang Zuoshi, please read this secret letter."

As he said that, Bai Shu flicked his fingers, and the secret letter flew to Yang Xiao as if held by an invisible hand.

After more than a year of getting along, Yang Xiao has long been familiar with the magical ability that Bai Shu occasionally reveals inadvertently, so he opened the letter and quickly read the content.

"Yang Zuoshi, what do you think?"

Bai Shu asked in a deep voice.

Yang Xiao pondered for a moment, and said: "Since this letter was sent by Fan Youshi, it must not be bad, but he said that he got the news three days ago, that is to say, Cheng Kun and others should have already boarded the Guangming Summit. ...But the Lion King and Buhui have a secret way to retreat, and their lives should be safe, so the leader doesn't have to worry too much."

When they evacuated from Guangmingding a year ago, they originally wanted to ask Xie Xun to go down the mountain together, but Xie Xun said that he had an intuition that Cheng Kun would definitely go to Guangmingding again and wanted to wait for him there.

After repeated persuasion to no avail, Bai Shu and the others let Xie Xun stay at Guangmingding, accompanied by Zhang Wuji and Yang Buhui, who had comprehended the meaning of the sword.

Worried that Xie Xun and the others would be in danger after he and others left, Bai Shu specially issued an order that after he went down the mountain, Xie Xun and the others could enter and leave the secret path of Guangming Peak at will.

In the secret passage, Baishu left a lot of food and water sources, so that even if something unexpected happens, as long as they hide in the secret passage, they can guarantee that they will survive until they wait for someone to rescue them.

"That's what I said, but King Xie is blind after all. Even if Buhui's strength has greatly increased after this year of practice, he may not be able to withstand the attack of Cheng Kun and Xuan Ming."

Bai Shu took a few steps on the spot and said, "I still have to go and see for myself."

"Master, I'm afraid it will take a month and a half to go back and forth to Guangmingding, and there are more and more things going on here. How can you leave so easily?"

Yang Xiao cupped his fists and said, "I have been taught magical skills by the leader, and my strength has improved over the past year. Why don't you just let me go?"

In addition to handling official duties this year, Bai Shu did not relax his martial arts training. The so-called "stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade", sometimes he encountered some unreasonable martial arts secrets, and would interact with Yang Xiao and others. discuss.

Of course, this discussion process can only be said to be unsatisfactory for Baishu's benefits, but it has greatly improved Yang Xiao and others.

Let’s talk about Yang Xiao himself, he has learned a miraculous muscle-yielding and bone-forging technique from Baishu. After a year of hard work, Yang Xiao feels that his current strength may have doubled compared to a year ago. times.

Coupled with the bonus of the Great Teleportation of the Universe, Yang Xiao thought that even if he faced the two elders, Xuanming and Ming, the outcome would be between five and five.

Hearing this, Bai Shu also felt that he had a lot of things to deal with at the moment, whether it was about cannons, glass, or many official duties on weekdays, he couldn't leave easily, so he said, "Forget it, I won't go to Guangmingding , you and King Wei Bat should go there."

"Subordinates take orders!"

……

After sending Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao out, Bai Shu temporarily put aside the matter and concentrated on handling official duties.

Time flies, and a month has passed.

On this day, Bai Shu was processing documents when someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!"

Bai Shu said without raising her head.

"Master!"

Hearing this voice, Bai Shu raised his head in surprise and saw Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao standing in the room, with somewhat gloomy expressions on their faces.

Seeing the expressions of the two of them, Bai Shu's heart sank, and he asked, "Why did you two come back so soon, where is the Lion King?"

Yang Xiao and Wei Yixiao looked at each other, and said, "Master, after I go to Guangmingding, the Lion King has already been taken away by Cheng Kun and others."

"what?"

Bai Shu was taken aback when he heard the words: "Didn't I tell the Lion King that he can enter the secret path to escape? Did he forget?"

"The Lion King didn't forget, it's just..."

Yang Xiao said: "Master, let Buhui and Mr. Zhang Wuji come in and tell the story."

Bai Shu had heard that Yang Buhui and Zhang Wuji were waiting outside, and immediately agreed to Yang Xiao's proposal.

Soon, Yang Buhui and Zhang Wuji walked into the room.

"See the leader!"

Yang Buhui and Zhang Wuji entered the room and prepared to salute Bai Shu.

"Okay, tell me what happened."

Bai Shu waved his hand to stop their salute.

"Yes!"

Yang Buhui knew that Bai Shu was a person who didn't stick to trivial matters, so he immediately stood up and started to talk about what happened after Bai and others left.

It turned out that from the time they left a year ago until a month ago, everything was relatively smooth.

But one day a month ago, Xie Xun suddenly woke up Yang Buhui and Zhang Wuji early in the morning, saying that someone had touched Guangmingding, and even if it wasn't Cheng Kun, he was probably not a good person.

Having received Xie Xun's warning, Yang Buhui didn't dare to be careless, and got up quickly.

When she came outside, she heard a sound of shouting and killing slowly coming from far and near. It was obvious that a large number of people were attacking Guangmingding.

Before the three of Yang Buhui went out to support them, they saw a group of Ming Cultists disguised as enemies coming inside.

"The enemy's congregation in disguise?"

Bai Zhu interjected and asked.

"That's right, I'm ashamed to say it. Brother Wuji and I didn't realize that they were the enemy in disguise at first. We didn't know until they came close and we were reminded by King Xie."

Yang Buhui showed a look of embarrassment on his face, "At that time, the team of disguised congregants was covered in blood, and told us that there were many enemies coming, so we should quickly enter the secret passage to escape."

But with Xie Xun's reminder, Yang Buhui and the others naturally did not agree to them, and seeing their deeds revealed, these pretenders immediately showed their true colors, and immediately started hunting down Yang Buhui and the three.

In the eyes of these pretenders, one of the three Yang Buhui is a delicate little woman, one is a blind person, and the other is an ordinary young man. Isn't it easy to capture the three of them?

But he didn't expect that when he started, he found that none of the three were easy.

Yang Buhui's swordsmanship is like a death scythe, almost every stabbing of the sword will make these people get some color; although Xie Xun is blind, he has a pair of ears to listen to the wind, and every time he punches he will He beat one of them to the ground; even Zhang Wuji, the weakest of the three, managed to block their attack with his palms like the wind.

Seeing that they could not attack for a long time, these people whistled and retreated.

After these people left, without waiting for Yang Buhui to be happy, Xie Xun pointed out that these people were just spies who came to test the truth of Guangming Ding, and the real enemy would show up within a day or two.

"After hearing Xie Lion King's words, Brother Wuji and I naturally tried our best to persuade him to enter the secret passage with us to escape, but..."

Yang Buhui sighed lightly: "The Lion King Xie is extremely stubborn, he insists on seeing Cheng Kun himself before he is willing to enter the secret path."

Zhang Wuji also smiled helplessly: "My sister Buhui and I tried to persuade our adoptive father to no avail, so we waited with him together."

"Two days later, Cheng Kun really went up the mountain alone."

Yang Buhui said.

"Wait, alone?"

Bai Shu was taken aback suddenly: "I'm afraid there is an ambush?"

Even without Fan Yao's secret message to remind him, Bai Shu didn't think that a cunning and cunning person like Cheng Kun would go up the mountain alone.

"Yes, at that time, brother Wuji and I also felt that it was a bit strange for Cheng Kun to go up the mountain alone,"

Yang Buhui sighed: "But Lion King Xie didn't listen to our persuasion at all, he wanted us to enter the secret path to hide, but he insisted on going forward to fight Cheng Kun."

"Thank you, Lion King. It's not that he doesn't listen to your advice, but he also sees that Cheng Kun is deceitful."

Bai Shu sighed: "He wants you to enter the secret path to escape, just because he doesn't want you to be in danger... As for himself, I'm afraid he already has the heart to die with Cheng Kun."

"Master Wei is right."

Zhang Wuji's face was full of sadness: "But unfortunately we still underestimated Cheng Kun's insidiousness. Seeing that his adoptive father did not let us come forward together, he immediately clapped his hands and summoned more than ten martial arts masters to besiege his adoptive father. He...he was finally outnumbered and captured by Cheng Kun."
