Chapter 417: Take Care of It if You Encounter It
Of course, Gu Yan and Zhong Qing were friends on a whim, and they didn't have any utilitarian intentions.
Therefore, he didn't think too much about it.
Zhong Qing said so, and he believed it.
Just when the two were drinking to their heart's content.
Outside the pavilion, there was a sound of footsteps.
It was a girl in a sky blue dress, who was a maid at the post station.
"Sir, there is an urgent letter for you!"
The maid came up, bent over, and presented the letter with both hands.
The post station is not only for rest and accommodation.
It is also responsible for transmitting intelligence information.
It is an important intersection for communication between major sects and major forces.
This is also because the area of Zhongzhou is too large, and the space is different. Ordinary jade slips and letters cannot be transmitted so far, so there is this ancient way of transmitting letters.
Gu Yan took the letter and waved his hand.
"There is nothing for you here, go down!"
"Yes, sir!"
As the maid left, Gu Yan glanced at the letter leisurely.
The next moment, his face changed.
"Brother Zhong, I'm afraid I can't drink with you today."
"There is a very difficult and troublesome matter that I need to go back to deal with."
He rubbed his eyebrows, his face full of worries.
"Brother Gu, just go."
"Don't pay attention to me."
"After drinking two pots of wine from you, I should also say goodbye!"
Zhong Qing naturally saw the difficulty on his face, so after saying goodbye, he did not stay and left directly.
As Zhong Qing left.
Gu Yan took the letter again and read it repeatedly in the pavilion.
The more he read, the more frightened he was.
The first half of the letter roughly recorded the great changes in the Fengyu Sect's Xuanjing mine vein.
The second half of the content was the Fengyu Sect's envoy, ordering him to quickly return to his territory and fiefdom to assist the Fengyu Sect and search for rebellion.
As the overlord of the chaotic land, the Fengyu Sect is not just talking.
Its power and influence are so great that it is absolutely unique in the area of one million miles.
In this area, no force has dared to disobey Fengyu Sect.
History has proved that during the long years when Fengyu Sect dominated the chaotic land, those who dared to disobey have now all turned into dead souls.
Gu Yan was secretly surprised.
"Who is it? What did they do that angered the heavens and the people? It's worth the Fengyu Sect to make such a big reaction!"
"Even a small marginal town like mine is not spared, and we must help them search for rebellion."
He felt the seriousness of the matter.
Gu Yan, himself is just the lord of a small town.
His status is not high, but not low either.
As the city lord, his status in the city he is in is naturally high.
But compared with a behemoth like Fengyu Sect, it seems too insignificant.
With his status, even if he licks his face and curries favor with Fengyu Sect, no one will pay attention to him.
Moreover, there were too many people trying to curry favor with him, and he couldn't even get in line.
This was the first time someone from Fengyu Sect came to contact him.
Once they contacted him, it was a big event that shook the world.
Gu Yan's mouth was a little bitter.
Assist in searching for the rebels.
It's easy to say.
But this is undoubtedly a hard job.
Between the lines, he could feel the importance of Fengyu Sect to this matter.
If things are not done well, it will attract the anger of Fengyu Sect.
If things are done well, it will be even worse.
Is it so easy to catch someone who can make Fengyu Sect launch such a big battle?
It is said that when gods fight, mortals suffer.
The fight between big figures, with a little aftermath, can shake a small figure like him to pieces and ruin him forever.
But he couldn't stay out of it and had to do it.
For a while!
Gu Yan only felt quite tricky and headache.
But he still got up at the first time.
He rushed to his own territory, Wanbian City.
Zhongzhou is very big!
The Land of Chaos alone covers an area of one million miles.
The Land of Chaos is also home to thousands of factions.
Wanbian City is located in the heart of the Land of Chaos.
It is an inconspicuous small city in the vast land.
On the other side, after Zhong Qing left the post station, he asked passers-by for directions.
He learned that the nearest city to this place was Wanbian City.
After asking for the direction, he did not delay and rushed straight to the city.
With his alcohol tolerance, two pots of wine were just enough to whet his appetite.
He did not drink to his heart's content, so he naturally had to make up for it in the second half.
This time, he did not fly in the air.
He just walked on foot.
Drinking is important, but flying in the sky all the time will miss a lot of scenery along the way.
Zhong Qing walked all the way west.
He did not know how long he had been walking.
Suddenly, a sound of fighting came from afar.
Zhong Qing raised his eyebrows.
Judging from the aftermath of the battle, it should be the three Yang three realm strongmen fighting.
He didn't plan to pay attention.
After all, in this cultivation world, life-and-death fights are too common.
If you see it, you have to intervene.
Zhong Qing doesn't have to do anything.
He is too busy just defending the weak and stopping disputes every day.
However, just as Zhong Qing took a step and prepared to move forward.
A voice came out, making him stop.
"Fellow Taoists, it is said that you should leave a way out when doing things, so that we can meet again in the future."
"You, are you really going to kill us all?"
Hearing the voice, Zhong Qing knew the identity of the man.
It was Gu Yan who invited him to drink before.
"The other party seems to have encountered a lot of trouble."
Zhong Qing muttered, took a step forward, and his figure disappeared from the spot, rushing straight to the battlefield.
He could turn a blind eye to strangers.
But the other party invited him to drink two pots of wine. Just for the sake of the two pots of wine, it would be fine if he didn't meet him. If he met him, it would be a bit unreasonable to leave like this.
Soon, Zhong Qing arrived at the scene.
This is a mountain forest.
In the mountain forest, ancient trees within a radius of dozens of miles were broken and rocks collapsed.
It seemed to have experienced a large-scale disaster.
A cloud of war smoke slowly rose to the sky.
The battle was over at this time.
There were several corpses lying on the ground.
Gu Yan had been restrained by someone.
Around him, there were twelve people.
The leader was a short but strong red-faced man.
"Brother, this grandson killed eight of us brothers."
"I suggest that we cut him into pieces, so that we can avenge our brothers."
The red-faced man waved his hand and said, "This man is the lord of a city."
"It would be a pity to kill him like this."
"I heard that he has a daughter who is so beautiful that she can make fishes sink to the bottom of the water and geese fall to the ground, and the moon hides the flowers."
"Why not let her bring all the wealth of this old man to redeem him."
"In this way, we can not only get the money, but also play with a woman for free, and make this old man miserable. Isn't it ten times more enjoyable than cutting him into pieces?"
"Brother, this plan kills three birds with one stone, it's great!"
A younger brother immediately flattered him.
When Gu Yan heard this, his eyes were wide open.
He roared like a wounded beast.
"Beasts, a bunch of beasts."
"You will die a miserable death!"
"You are so cruel, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
"Haha!"
The red-faced man laughed coldly.
"In this Lone Blade Mountain, I am the heaven."
"Who dares to take revenge on me?"
He said this in a very arrogant manner.
He had an air of "who else but me, the only one in the world who can rule the world".
