Blade of Wind

In the evening, the officials of Gongguo hosted a banquet in honor of us.

But Zhujing didn't come, and was only accompanied by Gongqi and Zhongzai.

Although they explained that Zhu Jing was feeling unwell, I still felt something was wrong.

The immortals of the Twelve Kingdoms basically don't get sick, let alone kings.What's more, when I saw Zhu Jing during the day, she was obviously still cursing in anger.

So I gently asked Gong Qi, "Is there something we offended?"

Gong Qi repeatedly waved his hands, "No, no, please don't worry too much, His Majesty Feng Wang. Our lord is just in a bad mood."

This unicorn really can't lie at all, just now he said he was unwell, but now he's in a bad mood again.

However, my relationship with Zhujing is not so good that I can't get to the bottom of it. He said so, so I didn't ask.After eating, I went back to rest, and left the next day.

Of course Zhujing disapproved of my insistence on continuing to travel, but I was the king of Fangguo after all, and she was not good at interfering, so she reprimanded me a few words and let it go when I was saying goodbye.On the contrary, Gong Qi specially gave A Ao a letter, saying that if he encounters troubles in the territory of Gong Kingdom, it may be useful.

You see, compared to Wang and Wang, the brotherhood between Qilin is much more touching.

When I said that, Ah Ao just stared at me and didn't say anything.

Our original plan was to go to Fan from Gongguo, because Fanguo is the country with the most developed handicraft industry among the twelve countries. Since we came here under the guise of "investigation", we had to take a look.After all, our small technology development bureau can only do some small crafts at present.Always go to see what Fan Guo has and what is there, what can be learned, and what can be saved without wasting time.Then go back in circles like Zuo, Cai, Qiao, Qing, Yan, Liu....

But because I was a little concerned about meeting those monsters before, I discussed with Ao Xiuhuang before leaving, and reversed the route, planning to go to Liuguo first.After all, it is strange that there is no news from those monsters in Fangguo, and it is not known whether they crossed the sea collectively.After confirming whether the monsters came from our country of Fang, or from the country of Liu, it is also a matter of letting go.

Ah Ao and the others originally came out with me. I said so, of course they have no objection.So he went to Liu Guo.

All the way to the mountains and rivers, uh, I mean, I was very happy to inspect the customs and customs of various places, and nothing happened along the way. The only problem is that Qinglong didn’t show up for some reason. I told him to ignore it and let Ao go. called, but there was no response.

I think he probably still minds being called a "shemale", but it's not something I can change, so that's what I have to do.Take your time to find an opportunity to apologize to him later.

Gong country is worthy of being a country that has ruled the world for 90 years. It is a scene of peace and prosperity, and no monsters have been seen.It wasn't until we crossed the border and entered the territory of Liu Kingdom that we occasionally saw one or two little monsters. These are called "worms", and ordinary people who are stronger can deal with them.Qinglong didn't show up, so I killed it by myself.Compared to Fangguo, it was nothing at all.

"In this case, the monsters we met on the sea should have come from Fang?" I asked.

A Ao didn't reply, Xiu Huang nodded slightly, "The current King Liu has been in power for more than 100 years, even if the Liu Kingdom is going to decline, it won't be so fast."

"But why are there fewer near Fangguo, but more outside?"

Xiu Huang couldn't answer my question.

So I shrugged my shoulders and put it down first, and the group continued to walk to Zhicao, the capital of Liuguo.

We missed Sutou that night, so we found a wild tree in the wild to sleep.

It's not too cold to light a fire, lean against a wild tree, and cuddle next to a beast.

Xiuhuang fetched water to make tea, and we ate some dry food for dinner.

Ah Ao held the teacup, blew on the hot air, and suddenly said softly: "Jie, do you remember that we discussed whether demons also have their own thoughts and social composition?"

I nodded, "It's hard to say about the composition of the society, but judging by the way they attacked the city that day, there must be a leader who gave orders."

"Then tell me, there are fewer monsters in the sea area near Fang Country, but more monsters in places farther away from Fang Country. Could it be because the leader ordered the monsters to hide, and the monsters near Gong Country didn't listen to orders..." Ao paused, "The so-called 'the sky is high and the emperor is far away'?"

This explanation is not unreasonable, I pondered for a while, "In this way, the demon king not only did not leave Fangguo, but hid in the center of Fangguo?" That's how to control the demons in the whole country, right?

As I said this, the blood-red pupils and sharp fangs that Ah Deng accidentally exposed that day emerged in my mind.

If it was him... I felt a little uneasy in my heart.

Xiuhuang poured me another cup of hot tea, "Your Majesty, don't worry, Lord Yuexi will inform us if there is anything in the country."

There are no mobile phones in this world, so it may be difficult to notify in time.But with Yuexi here, I really have nothing to worry about.After all, the Falcon Palace has the Forbidden Army, Pusu has the State Division, and there are death squads with rich experience in fighting monsters. I also specially told Mo Yekong to pay attention to A Deng. If you think about it, even if he is really the demon king who can command the demons all over the country. Can't get out of the sky.

So when I heard what Xiu Huang said, I nodded slightly.

Xiu Huang said again: "Your Majesty, rest after drinking tea, I'll be on duty at night."

I was a little surprised, and said: "Since the situation in Liuguo is good, here is under wild trees, and there is not even a wild animal, what is it worth?"

Xiu Huang smiled, and said, "It won't hurt to be careful."

I could only nod my head and said, "Then I'll be on duty for the rest of the night. If you're sleepy, just call me."

Xiu Huang knew my temper and didn't say anything against it.Ao, on the other hand, glanced at us with an unnatural expression on his face, but he probably knew that he was useless in things like night watch, so he didn't make a sound in the end, and after drinking tea, he leaned on his beast riding Lie down beside.

I took out a cloak from my luggage and covered him with it, and said, "Why don't we let them make some sleeping bags when we go back..."

A Ao raised her eyes and stared at me, "Do you still want to run out like this often?"

I coughed lightly and let out a haha.

Xiuhuang showed a helpless smile, and didn't follow me to persuade me. I felt a little embarrassed. Although I was a little annoyed by Zhujing's scolding that day, in fact, she was really right.

So I smiled mischievously, lay down too, and said to Xiu Huang, "Remember to wake me up in the middle of the night to take care of you."

Xiu Huang nodded, and added a few sticks of firewood to the fire.

As a result, before midnight, Xiu Huang gently pushed me awake.

I rubbed my eyes, yawned and asked, "Are you sleepy? Well, let me change..."

"Hush." ​​Xiu Huang raised a finger, "There is a situation."

I fell asleep for a while, and looked up and looked around.

We were surrounded, and there were about a dozen figures in the trees around us.

"Probably a bandit." Xiu Huang lowered his voice, "What should I do, my lord?"

Although ordinary bandits are no match for me, this number...the difference in numbers is too great.Although I have no problem, but to protect A Ao and Xiu Huang, I am a little precarious.What's more, Qinglong is still losing his temper, and he doesn't know whether he is willing to help.

"Run?" I said, reaching out to wake Ao up.

A hero does not suffer from immediate losses, and our beasts can fly. The robbers don't look like beasts, so they shouldn't be able to catch up.

Xiu Huang nodded, and quickly pulled up the riding beast.

The robbers over there obviously also saw our intentions. As soon as we moved, they jumped out and rushed towards us brandishing their swords.

There were even a few archers who shot directly with a row of feathered arrows.

I hastily pulled out my sword to block the incoming arrows, and turned my head to remind Ah Ao to find a place to hide.

These people didn't intend to keep us alive when they came up. They came prepared and experienced.Apparently a repeat offender.

After another round of arrows, the robbers rushed up to us. We were not injured, but we had lost our chance of escape.You can only cheer up and fight.

Fortunately, Qinglong didn't get angry with me anymore at this time, and showed up on his own initiative, and stopped in front of Aao without waiting for my order.

He can't hurt people, but it's no problem to protect Ao. When the imperial army rebelled, so many people couldn't take Ao away from him, not to mention the dozen or so robbers in front of him.

With no worries, I don't have to be polite to the robbers in front of me.

What's more, they don't look worthy of sympathy at all, each of them is fierce and full of flesh, and some of them have tattoos on their faces.

Xiu Huang didn't need to order, and he drew his sword quickly and ruthlessly, and the sword greeted the robber's vital points.

I know he has martial arts skills, but this is the first time I saw him fight, so I couldn't help but smiled, "Oh, if I knew that Xiuhuang's swordsmanship is so good, I wouldn't need to run, just kill him."

Xiuhuang seemed a little helpless, but in front of the enemy, he didn't have time to pay attention to me, and only concentrated on dealing with the robber in front of him.

I am much more relaxed than him, of course these robbers took it lightly when they saw that I was a woman, not to mention they were not my opponents in the first place.Much easier to deal with than those monsters.He didn't even need to release An Xiao, and he was beaten up.

I really overestimated them before. Some of these robbers don't even know martial arts, they just rely on their physical strength.

Xiu Huang and I killed about four or five people, and then they showed their timidity and didn't want to fight, so they just rushed away.

Xiu Huang chased a few steps, then stopped again.

They fled in all directions, and even if we wanted to pursue them, there was no way for us to pursue them.

Xiu Huang frowned, his face heavy.

I laughed and said, "Isn't this a win? Why did you look even worse?"

Xiu Huang sighed, and said: "Tattooing on the face is the punishment of Liu Guo. These people are habitual offenders. Let them run away, I'm afraid there will be endless troubles."

Although Xiu Huang usually has a gentle and elegant appearance, he has traveled extensively with his father's caravan, and he has seen many robbers. Since he is so worried, there must be a reason for him.

But now that the robber ran and ran, it was useless to worry.I patted him on the shoulder, put away the sword, and said with a smile: "It's nothing, the big deal is that the soldiers will block him, and the water will cover him with earth."

Xiu Huang nodded, put away his sword as well, and said: "Go and wash off the blood on your body first, lest Tai Fu feel uncomfortable."

I looked back at Ao, he was protected by the green dragon, and he was unharmed, but his clothes were splashed with someone's blood.

Everyone went to the stream together, cleaned up first, and then made a fuss about it.
