Chapter 44
"Old uncle, none of the twelve envoys came back."

"That must be because I heard about the young master's peerless martial arts from Gongsun Mie. I'm afraid I won't be the young master's opponent, so I went back to move troops."

It makes sense for Yan Wuxin to hear what the old man said.With just two palms of my own, Gongsun Mie, one of the six great elders, was forced to retreat. This kind of skill is no small feat. With the addition of the old man, the twelve guards are definitely no match for the two of them.

Like walking on the main road, there are many mountain roads. After walking for a day, there was still no one chasing them. Yan Wuxin and the old man were amazed, but they were also secretly happy when they went. At night, the three finally arrived at the riverside.

When they arrived at the river, there were no boats. The three of them walked along the river bank for several miles and finally reached a ferry.There was a small boat parked on the shore, but there was no one there.The three of them didn't care who the plate belonged to, whether it belonged to the owner or not. They got on the boat, quietly untied the rope, and went down the river.

The old man took some dry food from the bag and distributed it to Yan Wuxin and Xi'er.After the three of them had eaten their fill, Yan Wuxin took care of the old man's injury, let him sleep, and steered himself, but the old man insisted on refusing.Yan Wuxin didn't force himself, firstly, he was the young master, and his subordinates tried their best to protect him, although grateful, it was only natural, secondly, he didn't know how to steer, so he embraced Xi'er, leaned against the boat and fell asleep.

When Yan Wuxin woke up, it was dawn, he stretched, rubbed his eyes, and sat up straight.

"Old man, where are we now?"

"Now we have arrived at the site of the Guardian Fire Emissary."

"Are we going to disembark?"

"If you can pass, you will not disembark."

Yan Wuxin sat up from the bow of the boat, heard the old man's strange words, and said, "Why don't you get off when you can pass? Didn't you stay at the fire guard?"

The old man shook his head slowly and said: "If you can not stay, it is better not to stay."

Yan Wuxin was amazed, and said: "Didn't the old uncle say that the fire guard is loyal to his father? Why can't he stay?"

"It is true that the Weihuo envoy is loyal to the leader, but Chang Xiaotian is not openly rebellious, but is taking the leader's orders. Therefore, we must order the Weihuo envoy to keep the young master. In this way, if the Weihuo envoy lets us go, That’s disobeying orders. Although I believe that the Guardian Fire Envoy is loyal to the leader, if we really go there, it will embarrass him, so it’s better to go quietly.”

Yan Wuxin nodded slightly, feeling that what the old man said was not unreasonable.

The old man stared intently at the distance in front of him, and said: "I'm afraid that nine times out of ten I won't be able to make it through."

Yan Wuxin and Xi'er turned their heads together, and sure enough, they saw a narrow part of the river not far away, about fifty or sixty feet wide, with more than a dozen small and large boats lying across the water, and the people on board were Jiuyou. Teaching attire, checking the ships.

"That's who we teach."

Xi'er added: "It's my master's subordinate."

Yan Wuxin asked curiously: "How come you know it again?"

Xi'er said: "Look at those people, they wear black cloth around their waists."

Yan Wuxin didn't see it clearly at first, but when the boat got closer, he really saw that these congregants wearing dark red teaching uniforms were wearing pure black belts around their waists.The envoys from all directions, and the congregants of each side, wear belts of different colors.This black is exactly the belt of the Fireguard.

"These people are searching on the water, as if they are intercepting something, are they looking for us?"

The old man said with an authentic expression: "I'm afraid it's nine out of ten."

"Since the old uncle doesn't want to stay at the fire guard, let's go ashore."

But the old man shook his head again and said, "It's too late, they have already found us."

Yan Wuxin looked at the dozen or so boats blocking the river ahead, and sure enough, he had spotted them, and three of them were heading towards them.He thought to himself, since he couldn't escape, he had no choice but to take this trip. Fortunately, the fire guard was his father, so he believed that he would be like the old man and help him escape.Yan Wuxin and Xi'er both stood up and stood side by side at the bow of the boat, and the old man also went to the bow of the boat, letting the boat drift with the current.

The boat was getting closer and closer, and three boats came up to meet them, and the other boats seemed to have spotted them, and they all turned their bows to meet them, and let the other boats go.When the two got close, the old man opened the folding fan, shook it lightly, and did not speak.

Among the ten or so boats, one leader bowed to the old man from a distance, and said: "My subordinate Huo envoy, Luo Ping, please refer to the young master, Elder Bai."

Yan Wuxin held Xi'er's hand, walked to the bow of the boat, and said, "What's the matter?"

"According to the order of the fire envoy, I ordered the villain to wait here to wait for the young master. The fire envoy said that the young master is coming from afar. When he arrives here, the fire envoy must treat him well."

Before Yan Wuxin, he heard from the old man that the fire guard was loyal to his father, and now he heard from his subordinates that he should treat them well and not mention anything about blocking the way, and was ordered to bring him back.I thought to myself, what the old uncle said was indeed true, this Wei Huo envoy did not betray me and sent me back to the main altar, he was indeed loyal to his father.

But I also feel that something is not right, Uncle Chang betrayed his father, the less people know about it, the better, except for the confidants in the church, a few elders, I am afraid that they dare not tell the truth to the Bafang Envoys, let alone this Wei The fire emissary is still loyal to his father.Therefore, if Uncle Chang issued the order in the name of his father, the fire guard might not know Uncle Chang's betrayal, and it would be reasonable to send him back to the main altar.Could it be that the fire guard has taken refuge in Uncle Chang?
"Okay, since the fire guard wants to worship me as a god, that's the best thing, let's go."

Among the dozen or so boats, several smaller boats approached, and two congregants boarded the boat and parked Yan Wuxin's boat to the shore.Yan Wuxin, Xi'er, and the old man got off the boat together.Two carriages had already been prepared by the shore, Yan Wuxin saw the carriages, and thought to himself, the fire guards had already prepared, they all knew that there were three of them and they needed two carriages.

Na Luoping helped Yan Wuxin lift the curtain and said, "Young master, please get in the car."

Yan Wuxin took Xi'er's hand and got into the carriage together. Before they could sit down, the old master suddenly said: "The young master has a distinguished status. Ordinary people cannot be his coachman. Let me help the young master drive."

Yan Wuxin thought, the old uncle was injured and had been at the helm all night, how could he be allowed to be his driver? But he thought, the old uncle drove for him before because there was no one, but now he has a servant. , and he was driving by himself, maybe he had other intentions, so he didn’t stop him.

"This..." Luo Ping hesitated a little, but didn't say much, just said: "Yes."

Yan Wuxin opened the curtain, and said again: "Send someone to report to the Huowei immediately, saying that we are tired and hungry all the way, and we haven't eaten properly for many days, let him prepare a table of good food and wine. "

Na Luoping bowed and agreed, and immediately sent someone back to report.

Xi'er laughed and said, "Even if the young master is fleeing, he still doesn't forget to put on airs as the young master of the Nine Nether Sect."

Yan Wuxin also smiled and said: "I don't know how long I can put up this air. Every day I put it up will be less and less. When I can put it up, I will naturally put it up more."
