I've been a headhunter at Six Doors all these years

Chapter 147 Chapter 144: Devil King Xue Hu Sad

In the next few days, Mo Kei and Baiguan wrote several times to ask Shangguan Yan to proclaim himself emperor, Shangguan Yan also rejected it several times, and finally accepted the proclaimed emperor for the fourth time.

Afterwards, an auspicious day was selected, and the enthronement ceremony was held, and the whole country celebrated with joy.

Ling Yun was worshiped as the national teacher by Shangguan Yan, and all civil and military officials saw the national teacher as if they were seeing the emperor.

Mo Ke canonized as the commander of the guards and the chief of the palace.

Sima Chengfeng canonized as General Zuowei of the Imperial Guard Army.

Sima Lingfeng was canonized as the Right Guard General of the Imperial Guard Army.

The rest of the civil and military officials remained unchanged according to the canonized official positions of Ouyang Feiying.

Ding Xuelian was taken back to Sifang City Palace by Shangguan Yan.

A few days later, Ling Yun bid farewell to Shang Guanyan.

Since meeting Shangguan Yan, he has stayed in Sifang City for more than a month to help Shangguan Yan restore the country, and it is time to set off to investigate the case of the red fox.

In fact, he also really wanted to stay in Sifang City, to be a national teacher of Yan State who is under no one and above ten thousand people, sitting on the head with Shangguan Yanping every day, and hugging the empress Fenghuaxueyue every day.

This kind of life is really carefree, he really doesn't even want to go back to Six Doors to be this poor head catcher.

But he is still young after all, and he still has a world in his heart.

His ideal is not limited to the small country of Yan.

The fine snow is flying, at the long pavilion ten miles outside the Sifang City.

Shangguan Yan poured wine to see Ling Yun off.

Wearing a crown on her head and a brocade embroidered dragon cloak, she exudes the powerful aura of an empress.

Once a person's status increases, his aura will also become stronger.

However, at this moment her beautiful face is full of melancholy and reluctance.

"National teacher, I respect you three cups and practice for you."

Shangguan Yan took two golden cups filled with fine wine from the maid's plate, and handed Ling Yun a glass.

Ling Yun took the wine bottle, touched Shangguan Yan's wine bottle lightly, and said: "Your Majesty, there is no banquet in the world that never ends, so don't be sad, there will be a time when we are destined to meet again in the future."

After all, raise the bottle and drink it up.

The two drank three glasses in a row.

"Your Majesty, I'm leaving, take care of yourself!"

After Ling Yun finished speaking, he strode out of the long pavilion, jumped onto the steed, and galloped away.

Shangguan Yan looked at the figure of the horse that was drifting away in the wind and snow, and she couldn't help but feel an extreme emptiness in her heart.

She murmured: "Brother Ling, I will wait for your return in Sifang City, and I will never change it in this life."

Fuxi Town.

In the early morning, in the vast white snow, a caravan came from the east.

The caravan is very large, with hundreds of people, wearing fur hats and fur coats, carrying short knives and weapons, and holding more than a dozen carriages, leaving several deep wheel tracks in the snow, creaking. Heading towards Fuxi Town.

The caravan entered Fuxi Town, but did not go to the inn to rest and fight, but went all the way to the mansion of the town lord of Fuxi Town.

The town lord's mansion is located in the birch forest to the west of Fuxi Town. Although the building is not magnificent, it is large in scale, covering an area of ​​hundreds of acres, with rockeries, ponds, pavilions, and pavilions.There are hundreds of halls and houses.

In the lobby of the town lord's mansion, an old man in his late teens, wearing a dark gray crane cloak, a mountain crown, and a few straight beards, was sitting in the lobby drinking morning tea.

He is Lan Yuanshan, the lord of Fuxi Town.

In the area of ​​the Western Regions with a radius of thousands of miles, there are a total of four major martial arts families.

They are Dongbao, Nanzhai, Xizhen and Beicheng.

East Fort refers to Sky Shaking Fort. The owner of the castle, Huang Tianxing, is a rare opponent with a golden sword. He is known as the invincible big raptor with a golden sword.

Nanzhai refers to Qingtian Village, the owner of the village, Yin Chengfeng, is known as Jidian, and his swordsmanship is as fast as lightning.

Xizhen refers to Fuxi Town, the owner of the town, Lanyuan Mountain, created his own Yuanyang magic art, Dafengyunzhang, and his martial arts has reached the fifth-rank master.

The northern city is Wuyang City, the city lord Zhou Baiyu, who is skilled both internally and externally, with superb swordsmanship and advanced martial arts.

"Tell the town lord, a caravan came outside. They said they were going to come back from the Central Plains and brought a lot of special products from the Central Plains. They intended to sell them to the town lord at half the price. Please let the town lord decide."

A mansion guard hurried in from outside the hall, and reported to Lan Yuanshan who was sitting at the top.

"Oh? Sell Central Plains specialties at half price?"

Lan Yuanshan put down the teacup in his hand, couldn't help showing curiosity, stroked his beard and said: "The merchants are running around in pursuit of profit, why is this caravan willing to sell the special products brought from the Central Plains to the town owner at half price?"

Whether it is a special product from the Central Plains to the Western Regions, or a special product from the Western Regions to the Central Plains, the price is usually very high. After all, it has traveled thousands of miles and passed through countless dangers.

Since this caravan had already brought the goods from the Central Plains to the Western Regions, it should have been sold at a high price, but it was delivered to the door and was willing to sell at half the price. This is indeed an unusual thing.

Of course, if it is said to be half price, it does not rule out that the caravan deliberately raised the original price, and then made it half price, which is not much cheaper in fact.

Lan Yuanshan naturally knew a thing or two about the business methods of these caravans.

Fuwei replied: "The leader of the merchant said that he admired the town lord's name, so he was willing to sell it to the town lord at half price."

Lan Yuanshan couldn't help smiling when he heard this, stood up and said, "Understood, you go and tell the caravan, and the town lord will come to see the goods later."

He didn't make this decision because he heard the flattery of the businessman. As a veteran who has been famous for decades, he naturally wouldn't easily believe in the flattery of these businessmen.

Lanyuan Mountain's reputation in this area is indeed good. It is well-known for punishing evil and eliminating violence within a hundred miles of Fuxi Town, and benefiting one side.

After all, the businessman is profit-seeking, and he may sell the goods to him at a profit, but it is really impossible to sell them at half the price.

It's just that Lan Yuanshan also wants to purchase a batch of special products from the Central Plains. After all, it is not always possible to buy Central Plains goods in the Western Regions.

Especially now in the cold winter season, the Chinese New Year will be over in 20 days, and it is necessary to purchase some New Year's goods.

After a while, Lan Yuanshan left the mansion with the housekeeper and more than ten guards.

"This must be the owner of Blue Town!"

A business leader in a mink fur coat saw Lan Yuanshan and his party coming out, he couldn't help but greeted with a smile on his face.

Lan Yuanshan took a look at the businessman wearing a mink fur coat, but saw that he was about forty years old, with a medium to slightly fat body, with slightly squinted smiling eyes, and a benevolent look.

The businessman was accompanied by three men and a woman. These three men were wearing strange clothes, all of them were ugly. The woman was wearing a soft fur embroidered skirt and a crimson cloak on her shoulders, but she had an enchanting figure and was extremely gorgeous. sexy.

Lan Yuanshan looked at the businessman with his hands behind his back, and asked, "What's the name of this boss?"

The mink fur merchant patted the snow on his mink fur sleeves, and said with a flattering smile, "My surname is Xue."

Lan Yuanshan looked at the more than ten carriages parked not far from the gate, and said, "Boss Xue, what goods do you have here, open them and have a look. If the price is right, the town owner may consider buying some."

The mink merchant rubbed his hands together, and said with a chuckle, "Don't worry, Lord Lan, my carriage is all from the Central Plains with high-quality silk, tea, high-quality porcelain, and all kinds of exquisite handicrafts. The price is absolutely fair and cheap."

Then he turned around and said loudly to the followers behind him: "You guys go to the carriage and carry a few boxes of goods down, and show Lord Lan a look."

A dozen entourages went up to the first carriage and moved several large boxes down, carried them to Lan Yuanshan, and opened the boxes immediately.

I saw the silk and porcelain in these boxes.

The Diaoqiu merchant said to the two attendants beside him, "Show it to Lord Lan to have a look."

Among the three men and one woman beside him, a man in Tsing Yi stepped forward to take a bolt of silk from the box and sent it to Lanyuan Mountain.

"Mayor, please take a look." His triangular eyes were squinting.

Another tall man with a red beard picked up a blue and white porcelain from another box and came to Lanyuan Mountain.

Lan Yuanshan stretched out his hand to take the satin look handed over by the squint-eyed man.

The satin is smooth and delicate, and feels very good.

"Well, not bad." Lan Yuanshan looked at the piece of silk in his hand and nodded slightly, showing satisfaction.

Immediately, he handed the silk and satin back to the squint-eyed man, and reached out to catch the blue and white porcelain in the hand of the red-bearded man.

Lan Yuanshan took the blue-and-white porcelain from the hand of the red-bearded man, a cold wind blew, and a strange fragrance wafted from the blue-and-white porcelain.

Lan Yuanshan's expression changed, and he hurriedly closed his breath.

A cold light flashed under the porcelain, and the red-bearded man pierced Lan Yuanshan's abdomen with a short knife in his hand. At the same time, the slanted-eyed man covered Lan Yuanshan with a silk cover, and three bone soul-chasing nails shot towards Lan Yuanshan.

This change happens only in an instant.

Poison gas, dagger, and bone chasing soul nail, these three attacked Lanyuan Mountain almost at the same time.

Without the slightest sign, the plan fit seamlessly.

If it is an ordinary person, he must be killed on the spot!

But obviously, Lan Yuanshan is not an ordinary person.

In fact, he was already prepared.

From the moment he saw the sable fur businessman rubbing his hands and exhaling, Lan Yuanshan was already alert.

The mink merchant concealed his internal strength and pretended to have no martial arts, but in this cold and snowy winter, he did not wear gloves. Although he pretended to breathe and rub his hands to avoid the cold, Lan Yuanshan could see His hands were as rosy as usual.

In such a cold winter, a person without martial arts would definitely turn blue and stiff with his hands exposed.

However, it cannot be concluded that this mink merchant has malicious intentions.

After all, there are also many people who walk outside deliberately hide their martial arts.

It's just that Lan Yuanshan already felt a little more vigilant in his heart.

Therefore, when he took over the blue and white porcelain, although he only smelled a trace of unusual fragrance, he knew something was wrong and immediately held his breath.

A shield of true energy suddenly appeared around him, and the squint-eyed man's dagger couldn't pierce the barrier of true energy.

The bone chasing soul nail of the red-bearded man hit the zhenqi barrier and immediately fell down.

"Hi!"

Lan Yuanshan yelled violently, the zhenqi barrier exploded, and a powerful zhenqi blasted towards the red-bearded man and the squint-eyed man.

The red-bearded man and the squint-eyed man leaned back, narrowly avoiding it, and fell to the sides.

"The master of Lan's Yuanyang magic is indeed well-deserved." The Diaoqiu businessman applauded and laughed lightly.

"Who are you?" Lan Yuanshan looked directly at Lan Yuanshan with lightning-like eyes, and asked in a cold voice.

"I'm going to die, why do you ask so many people?" The sable fur businessman sneered, and took out a strange-shaped black crutch from his fur coat.

Lan Yuanshan looked at the black crutch, and couldn't help but change his face: "Your name is Xue? Are you the demon king Xue Hubei among the four great demons?"

The Four Heavenly Demons of the Western Regions, the Demon God Chun Yuyang, the Demon Immortal Lei Xiaoqu, the Demon King Xue Hubei, and the Demon Guji Wuhua.

Xue Hubei caressed the black crutch in his hand, with a smile on his face: "It seems that you only recognized the devil king when you saw this crutch."

Lan Yuanshan ignored Xue Hubei, glanced at the big red-bearded man and the squint-eyed man, then at the other man in black robe and the pretty woman, and suddenly understood.

"The Four Asura Demons!"

Lan Yuanshan's pupils shrank involuntarily: "Unexpectedly, the Demon King's Cave will be mobilized. It seems that there will be a vicious fight today."

"Father! Who are they?" A young man in brocade clothes jumped out of the mansion and came to Lan Yuanshan.He is Lan Yuanshan's son Lan Wushui.

"Xue Hubei brought the Four Demons of Shura to destroy my Fuxi Town Mansion."

"Master."

"Master."

Several personal disciples of Lan Yuanshan flew out of the mansion one after another, and then countless guards of the town lord's mansion flew out with swords in hand.

As one of the four major martial arts families in the Western Regions, the strength of the Fuxi Town Lord's Mansion cannot be underestimated.

Xue Hubei glanced at the hundreds of guards, but showed contempt on his face: "What's the use of having too many people, it's just to die. From today on, Xizhen will be removed from the four great martial arts families."

"Just relying on your Demon King's Cave, I'm afraid you don't have this strength!"

Lan Yuanshan slightly raised his palms, his eyes flickered, and his whole body was filled with true energy!
Lan Yuanshan has heard of the great sorrow of the demon king Xue Hu, of course, but it is by no means easy to wipe him out in one fell swoop!
Big deal, both sides die together!

As one of the four great martial arts families in the Western Regions, if it was so easy to destroy, then Xue Hubei would have brought people to destroy Fuxi Town Lord's Mansion long ago.

Although Lan Yuanshan couldn't figure out why Xue Hubei suddenly made such a big attack today.

You know, Xue Hubei has always been a cautious person.

"How about adding this Demon Fairy?"

A cold voice came, and a dozen or so figures in the distance flew towards them, and they arrived in front of the town lord's mansion in an instant.

The leader is dressed in fluttering white clothes, with a white face and beardless, tall and tall. He looks like a fairy, but there is a hint of coldness in the corner of his mouth, making him look like a fairy or a demon.

This person is Lei Xiaoqu, one of the Four Heavenly Demons.

Behind Lei Xiaoqu are four sword-holding boys who are not more than five feet tall. They are Lei Xiaoqu's Four Immortal Boys.

They are said to be boys, but they are actually adults in their 40s and [-]s, but they took Lei Xiaoqu's anti-authentic medicine when they were children, and they have remained in their teens ever since.

"Magic Fairy Lei Xiaoqu"

Lan Yuanshan's complexion changed drastically. Now he finally understood why Xue Hubei dared to attack aggressively. It turned out that there was such a powerful helper as the magic fairy Lei Xiaoqu.

Lan Yuanshan's son and other disciples couldn't help showing horror when they heard the words!

Everyone's heart couldn't help but sink.

"No water, you escape from the backyard, the sooner the better." Lan Yuanshan said to his son through voice transmission.

Only Xue Hubei brought the Four Demons of Shura and the more than 100 subordinates, they may not be able to deal with the Fuxi Town Mansion, now with the addition of the magic fairy Lei Xiaoqu, the Four Immortal Boys and more than a dozen masters came here If they help each other, then their Fuxi town may really be wiped out today.

Therefore, Lan Yuanshan hoped that his son could escape quietly at this moment and keep the blood of the Lan family.

"Father, how can I leave you behind at a time like this!" Lan Wushui replied in a secret voice, but her tone was firmly resolute.
