I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 324 Interception
"Escaped?" Hearing what the bearded man said, Zhu Xiao frowned involuntarily.

If it is an ordinary child, it is completely reasonable to take advantage of the opportunity to change clothes to escape, but it is impossible to escape in this wasteland Gobi, snow-capped, Zhan Feiyu is not only smart, but also courageous, how could she do this? so rash?

Zhu Zhengrong just sent a few men to check in the direction Zhan Feiyu left, but he hasn't come back yet, and it's not clear whether he escaped or an accident happened.

Looking at the wilderness beyond sight, Zhu Zhengrong couldn't help but ask, "Father, will Zhan Feiyu do the opposite?"

It was precisely because she believed that Zhan Feiyu would not escape, so she left before no one followed her.

Thinking of Zhan Feiyu's token of the Forbidden Dragon Guard on his body, Zhu Zhengrong even guessed whether the people of the Forbidden Dragon Guard were secretly responding, so Zhan Feiyu was able to escape smoothly.

"Even if Gu Xueshi's disciple is involved with the Forbidden Dragon Guard, the relationship will definitely not be too deep." Even though Zhu Xiao is far away in Longyou Dao, he still knows the current emperor very well.

Although the Holy Majesty is a Mingjun, he has always employed people without doubt, but looking at the Yang family that has not recovered yet, sitting on the dragon chair, that is a lonely family. The Cabinet Master and the Forbidden Dragon Guard are involved.

Similarly, Gu Qingzhou can become the confidant of the Holy Majesty and has the absolute right to speak in the court, and he will not commit any taboos, so Zhu Xiao judges that it is absolutely impossible for the elusive Forbidden Dragon Guard to rescue Zhan Feiyu.

As for whether Zhan Feiyu escaped or had an accident, Zhu Xiao couldn't even speculate. The little girl was young, so she couldn't use common sense to deduce it.

While the father and son were talking, one of the guards who went to check came back, "General, we followed the footprints to trace the past, and the footprints were wiped away by artificial cleaning at a distance of about ten feet..."

The bodyguards who can follow Zhu Xiao to the barbarians are naturally the elite among the elites, and Zhan Feiyu's little trick must not be able to hide it from their eyes.

The few people quickly found the right direction, and finally stopped at the small slope.

The guard continued to report the situation: "The footprints completely disappeared on the short slope, and there was dry grass blown away by the wind next to it. The subordinate guessed that Miss Zhan used these dry grass to wipe off the footprints before."

"You mean she jumped off the short slope and escaped?" Hearing this, Zhu Zhengrong could at least tell that the Forbidden Dragon Guards hadn't come to meet Zhan Feiyu, otherwise she didn't need to sweep away her footprints.

Previously, more than 200 people from the Marquis of the Bianzhen Town were repairing and camping on the side of the col, and they also arranged for people to watch around. If there were people hiding on the low slope, they really couldn’t escape the eyes of these scouts. No matter how powerful the martial arts are, they can't hide their whereabouts.

"Yes, the footprints on the short slope are a bit messy, and there is a trace of sliding down, but there is no trace beyond three feet of the low slope." This is also what shocked the guards after checking the scene. Miss Zhan seemed to disappear out of thin air average.

Zhu Xiaosu's face showed admiration. No wonder he dared to follow him before. It turned out that he was confident, and the little girl was a little interesting.

"Zhengrong, go over and check it out, and come back if you can't find any clues." Zhu Xiao said in a deep voice, he can find the best one, and don't care if he can't find it. He planned to take Zhan Feiyu to the barbarians, but it was just on a whim That's all.

"Yes." Zhu Zhengrong agreed.

The bearded man hurriedly said, "General, I'll go and have a look too."

After a while, the cold wind was blowing on the low slope, and the snow on the ground was also swept up by the wind.

But because of the cold weather, apart from the floating snow on the ground, the snow below has long since frozen hard. If a person walks on the snow, no matter how good his lightness kung fu is, it is impossible not to leave traces.

Looking at the slip marks left on the short slope, Zhu Zhengrong stood up again and looked around, "She slipped down from here."

"Yes, a few of my subordinates checked the surrounding area, and there were no footprints left." The guards on the side replied, and they were also worried that this was a deliberate trick left by Zhan Feiyu, so the four of them centered on Aipo , Checked the surrounding area carefully.

Zhu Zhengrong jumped down from the short slope, and the bearded man followed suit.

As the guards reported before, the footsteps under the low slope were messy, in three directions. It was obvious that Zhan Feiyu stepped on them on purpose to confuse them.

The strange thing is that these messy footprints also extend to a distance of three feet, and there is no trace of anyone trampling on the snow beyond three feet.

"Could this milk doll be a Snow Mountain Goddess?" The bearded man widened his bull's eyes, and stomped his feet on the ground. The ground is hard enough for people to hide in the snow, so they just disappeared out of thin air?
Zhu Zhengrong, who was thinking about it, froze. Uncle Yu really couldn't leave the scripture book, so he could think of such outrageous guesses.

The rest of the guards also looked at the bearded man without a word. General Yu might as well say that the little girl is a master and escaped with her ability to step on the snow without a trace.

"Since you can't find it, let's go back." Zhu Zhengrong didn't intend to waste any more time here, after all, they had to get to the barbarians as soon as possible.

To go to the barbarians, one had to go through the Weizhou camp. Although his father had already made arrangements, Zhu Zhengrong did not dare to let his guard down until the last moment.

But when he reached the short slope, Zhu Zhengrong glanced at it inadvertently, not far away was a half-person-high stone, which was also covered with snow, and there was nothing behind the stone, so naturally there were no Tibetans.

The bearded man followed Zhu Zhengrong's gaze. Does the eldest son think that the milk doll has turned into a stone?

Thinking about it this way, the bearded man kicked up a piece of rotten wood that was as thick as his wrist on the ground.

With a bang, the wood hit the stone, and snowflakes were stirred up, but the stone was still a stone, and it was impossible to become a person.

I was really confused. Just for a moment, I suspected that Zhan Feiyu was hiding behind this stone. Zhu Zhengrong took the lead, and several people followed immediately.

Looking at the wood that fell on the ground, Zhan Feiyu let out a foul breath. Fortunately, he was right on the head and kicked at the stone. If the kick was wrong...

Zhan Feiyu didn't even dare to think about what would happen if he let out a scream.

He continued to nest behind the stone. Although his hands and feet were numb from the cold, Zhan Feiyu still planned to wait before leaving. When he came out, they had already broken camp and were about to leave, so they probably wouldn't stay for long.

"I'm really stunned." Zhu Zhengrong, who went back and forth, looked at the deserted desert Gobi, let alone people, and he couldn't even see a rabbit, but just now he felt that Zhan Feiyu was hiding in the desert. here.

This time he left but really left, Zhan Feiyu was extremely glad that he didn't come out because of the cold just now, otherwise he would be caught by Zhu Zhengrong.

……

Half an hour later, on the official road leading to Weizhou Camp.

"Who is it? Leave quickly!" An angry shout sounded, and the front guard suddenly stopped the army horse, grabbed the reins with his left hand, and pointed the big knife in his right hand not far away.

The wind whistled, and snowflakes fluttered. He was dressed in a black brocade robe and a cloak of the same color was shaking slightly in the wind. On the back of the horse, Yin Wuyan looked at the dark group of people with cold eyes.

Zhu Zhengrong also reined in his horse and looked at the figure not far away. The person who came did not speak, nor did he show his weapon, but even so, the chilling aura of killing made Zhu Zhengrong truly conscious for the first time. When it comes to why one man is in charge of the gate, ten thousand husbands cannot open it.

Does Longyou Dao actually have such a person?
Zhu Xiao's eyes are half-closed, this looming murderous aura does not look like he is in his weak years, and his indifference is full of dignity. The children of ordinary aristocratic families definitely don't have the bloodthirsty and cold aura of this person, which is only found in people who have seen blood all year round. Bloody and murderous.

There was no need for Yin Wuyan to speak. Looking at He Sheng and the others who appeared later, Zhu Zhengrong and the guards of the Zhenbian Hou Mansion who had appeared in Aozikou before knew that this must be the reinforcement He Sheng had found.

Not seeing Zhan Feiyu in the crowd, Yin Wuyan's phoenix eyes sank and her wrist moved.

"Be careful!" Zhu Xiao snarled, and threw the whip in his hand almost at the same time.

Before the front guard could react, he felt a silver light flash in front of his eyes, but it was an extremely sharp plum blossom dart.

But even if it was blocked by the horsewhip, the direction of the plum blossom dart was only shifted a bit, and it pierced directly into the guard's neck with great force, and blood gushed out immediately.

So fast, so terrifying strength!At this moment, the guards of the Marquis' Mansion in Zhenbian immediately became alert.

Zhu Xiao's eyes changed slightly. He used [-]% of his strength, but he didn't even blow the plum blossom dart away, only deflected a little.

But fortunately, it was a bit off, otherwise the guard would have been dead on the spot.

"General, you are also at the age of a grandfather. I didn't expect to be able to do the deed of kidnapping a little girl. Tsk tsk, the general intends to defect to the barbarians, so he has learned from the barbarians and has no morals."

There was a sound of ridicule, Chong Guang turned over and got off the horse, rubbing his frozen hands, the fat girl said well in the writing, this Longyou Road is too cold, riding a horse is like a "big tree attracts the wind", it is freezing cold.

"Presumptuous, what are you, dare to talk to my father like this!" Zhu Zhengrong said angrily, and also turned over and got off the horse, looking at Chong Guang with a warning look.

At this moment, there are more than 200 elites on Zhu Xiao's side, and there are less than 30 people on Yin Wuyan's side, but even with such a disparity in numbers, no one dares to underestimate Chongguang and others.

Perhaps Yin Wuyan's aura was too strong, or his previous moves were too shocking.

Chongguang also did not find Zhan Feiyu in the crowd, but he is not stupid. If something happened to the fat girl, the plum blossom dart of the seventh master just pointed at the guards. I wish Zhengrong.

Qi Ye just punished her slightly, which means that the fat girl is absolutely safe, but I don't know where she went.

"I heard that the eldest son of the Marquis of the town is both civil and military, why don't we make gestures?" Zhong Guang stepped forward, still looking foolish, and shook the long sword in his hand, "It's so cold in this day and night, just a few gestures are just warm One point, my lord please."

Zhu Zhengrong didn't underestimate Chongguang because of his rascal appearance, he has also been on the battlefield, the more such a person, the more he should not be taken lightly.

"Zhengrong, if this is the case, you should fight." On the horse's back, Zhu Xiao said in a deep voice, do these people come from the scholar's mansion?Is it a slayer secretly cultivated by Gu Qingzhou?
But after taking a look at Yin Wuyan, who has handsome facial features but is too fierce, although he is young, he is definitely a superior person, and he cannot be a dark guard who can't see the light.

When Zhongguang and Zhu Zhengrong started to sell, Zhu Xiao took his eyes back.

Longyou Road is cold enough, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, so it is called a barren land, but it is convenient for competitions. There is an open space next to the official road, not to mention Chongguang and Zhu Zhengrong. Fighting, this place is big enough.

The sound of the sword hitting was accompanied by Chongguang's irritating and desperate noise, "Did the eldest son not sleep all night, so he has no strength, is this sword intended to tickle me?"

"Oh, I missed it again! The eldest son has read a lot, and his eyesight is not good. If he wants to kill someone, he will miss it."

Backhanded a sneak attack, Chong Guang kicked up the snow, and also left a bloodstain on Zhu Zhengrong's arm, "Haha, eldest son, don't worry, you don't need to study when you go to the barbarians anyway, and it doesn't matter if you hurt your arm."

He Sheng and others have long known Chongguang's urinating nature, even if he babbles, He Sheng and the others are used to it.

But at the Marquis Mansion at the edge of the town, seeing Zhu Zhengrong injured, a group of people became nervous, and the bearded man roared angrily, "Hit it, what the fuck are you doing?"

Chong Guang's figure stepped back, avoiding Zhu Zhengrong's attack, and said to the bearded man, "Is this the rule of the town's Marquis Mansion? You can't talk when you fight?"

"You..." The bearded man was angry, but he couldn't refute.

The layman watches the fun, the layman watches the doorway!
After Chongguang made a move, Zhu Xiao knew that Zhu Zhengrong was not his opponent, and Chongguang was indeed just planning to have a fight. Although the moves were fierce, they didn't hurt the vitals. After a fight, Zhu Zhengrong was defeated, but They are all flesh wounds, and they can heal within half a month of recuperation.

Zhu Xiao said in a deep voice, "Zhengrong, come back."

Chong Guang didn't bother, took away the blood-stained long sword, and slowly returned to Yin Wuyan's side, then said: "General, I would like to accept the bet, since the eldest son is not as skilled as others, why not hand over my fat girl. "

He Sheng and the others immediately looked at Zhu Xiao's side, and it was their fault that the young lady was taken away.

Ignoring Chongguang's idleness, Zhu Xiao looked at Yin Wuyan, "The little girl has escaped. Walk two miles north from here, and there is a mountain depression. Follow the mountain wall..."

"Isn't it? The fat girl really ran away?" Zhongguang laughed, and looked at the ugly bearded beard and others mockingly, and made a knife unceremoniously. Little girl, let her escape right under your noses, the fat girl is good at that."

Both Zhu Zhengrong and the bearded man looked ugly, wishing they could knock Chongguang's smug smile away with a punch. In the end, Zhan Feiyu was able to escape because they had no intention of killing, otherwise Zhan Feiyu would not be dead enough if he had nine lives .
