bad, i'm a fool

Chapter 217 Master Tantai
"Master Tantai..."

"Master Tantai..."

Tan Taiming heard such a call in a coma.

He instinctively wants to get angry, and no one has dared to call him that for many years.

Lord Tantai, that's right.

If Tantaifu was present, he should also be called Mr. Buwei.

Who dares to offend himself like this?
Candles were lit in front of his eyes, red curtains were cast, and opera drums and stage strings were babbling.

Theater?

is a dream.

In the drowsy flames, Tan Taiming seemed to see himself sitting under the stage, fascinated by watching.

At that time, I was still quite young, and it was the time when I was full of energy and didn't know the heights of the sky and the earth.

Yes, it seems to be.

At that time, it seemed that everyone was addressing him as Young Master Tantai.

He tried his best to look up on the stage, and there was a beautiful woman dancing with long sleeves, her movements were soft and yet sonorous, and her every move was impeccable.

Tan Taiming felt pain in his heart, and subconsciously wanted to reach out his hand.

No, stop singing.

But he was like a bystander, looking at his own back several years ago, staring at the actor on the stage in a trance, unable to do anything.

The drums fell and the strings stopped, and the beauty on the stage sang, looking affectionately at the young Tantai Ming.

"The young master has a heart, I'm afraid that I will disappoint the young master."

Tantaiming, who was watching the dream from the sidelines, was anxious at first, but when he thought of the direction of the past, his heart became desperate and awakened as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

"It's hard for me to match the time,

The mind is not free.

Sending wine to spring is melancholy,

I don't know that Jingyue is in the building. (1)"

When the aria reappeared, it was no longer a stage, but an attic where only Master Tantai and the beauty remained.

It's like singing only for him, only he can listen.

The angle of view was like that of Tantai Ming who was staring down from high in the sky, just stared blankly, and after a while, closed his eyes calmly and decisively, and did not look at the two of them again.

When he opened his eyes again, he had already woken up in the tent. It turned out that he was really exhausted after working hard to unseal the Yin Beast, so he dozed off unconsciously in the tent.

I haven't closed my eyes for several days, and it's okay to rest for a while.

Tan Taiming got up and walked out of the tent, the two guards stationed next to him immediately bowed their heads and saluted.

"Lord Tantai!"

Tan Taiming nodded expressionlessly: "How is it?"

"My lord, just as the person who captured the thieves testified, there are indeed traces of the knights of the West Asian state religion behind the Valley of Beasts, and there are also rear defense camps. The former army's reconnaissance can only go here."

The soldier unfolded a more detailed topographical map, and Tan Taiming immediately looked down.

Earlier, under his proficient torture, the captured Western Asian soldier who planned to secretly unseal the beasts in the valley couldn't stand it anymore, and finally revealed that he did not act alone, but a team arranged by the Knights to unseal the beasts. The valley held back the team of the Simeng Army.

The number of people is not large, and they are not elite. After all, after the Yin of the Beast is unsealed, if Simeng does not have such an unexpected force, the task of this team is almost the same as suicide, instead of dying in Simeng. The army died at the hands of these yin beasts.

One can imagine the devotion and loyalty of an instructor who can carry out such a suicide mission, and Tantaiming, who opened the mouth of such an instructor, will probably never lose to the ruthless official Xing of Dingfa Pavilion in the center of the rumors.

According to his confession, Simeng successfully intercepted and killed the West Asian team that was trying to release the Yin Beast. According to their confession and portable map, it can be concluded that the Orthodox Knights dispatched no less than two thousand people, and they are heading for the Beast Valley in Bailan Mountain. deep.

Their destination was towards West Asia, and the Simeng army could only passively pursue them, but the remaining monsters in the Beast Valley couldn't get around.

Wasting at least half a day slaughtering these immobile specimens, or setting such a time bomb to detour and chase after them?
Tan Taiming decided to send the former army to chase after him first, he needs to do it himself to unblock the monster, so he can only be forced to stay here just in case.

"The former army encountered the Knights of West Asia at the back of the Beast Valley. There has been much friction. I ask the captain to make a decision."

The soldier lowered his head and reported loudly, Tan Taiming frowned: "Have you reported it to the chief?"

"My lord, the director-general wants you to 'listen to Zhiluo'."

After Tan Taiming listened, he nodded solemnly.

Whether it is to catch such a "suicide squad" by oneself, or the other party sends this kind of squad to cheat oneself, the nature is still only a secret rivalry between the two sides.

But if there are casualties when the two armies collide head-on, the meaning is already different.

war.

This means war, a war like a whirlpool that cannot cleanse the country and the people.

"Handle the beast carefully here, I'll go to the former army."

----------

The wind and snow were all over the sky, and the former Simeng army looked at the Knights of the West Asian State Religion from a distance. Taking advantage of the large number of people, they surrounded them from the southeast sides until they could no longer approach.

Across the snow, although the soldiers on both sides were not close enough to see each other clearly, they could still see the fire in the other's camp when they gritted their teeth and raised their heads.

"The front is the territory of our Principality of West Asia, Simeng people, please don't come near!"

On an ice wall in front of the West Asia formation, stood a man in silver armor with a cross knight's sword on his back.Folding his arms, he shouted at the Simeng former army who was about to move closer.

Simeng paused in front of the formation, and a hundred cavalry general stood out from the army. He glanced around at the man and the knights behind him, and replied:
"Simeng Bingsi, guarding the border by the emperor's order, do not stop!"

This kind of coming and going is not a dialogue at all, it's just a constant announcement of one's own position.

But no one really dared to draw their swords. Together with Simeng's frontier army, the majority of the Orthodox Knights only received Sou Shan's orders.

As for who is searching, and whether they should start a real war with Simeng's border army because of the matter of searching for mountains, not many people have a clue.

"My name is Asantos, the Disrupted Knight. You have heard the warning. If you go any further, you will be expelled by force!"

"Hundred Cavalry General Huang Zhuang, I respectfully warn your regiment to retreat quickly!"

This is not the first time this talk has been fired. It can only be said that before the superiors on both sides issue further orders, what the front line can do is nothing more than warning, warning, and warning.

However, the time station is on the side of West Asia.

If this drags on, the Si-Mongolian border army will not be able to approach, but they are searching the northern half of Bailan Mountain for where Tilda may be. It is definitely not good news.

Tan Taiming has already walked into the formation, looking at the hundred cavalry generals who turned back, he frowned and closed his eyes.

He is not only strong, but also unique.

He was not like Li Zai who used magic and martial arts, nor was he like "Duan Qingzhu" who devoted himself to studying magic, and he was not like his own father who was the chief executive who had strong mana and was also one of the best in martial arts.

Tantaiming's power comes from "Zhiluo", an extremely rare and difficult to tame beast of the soul, called Qianmu Zhiluo Beast.

The thousand-eyed weaving beast needs to be supported by its own magic power. It has the power of a hundred beasts, but it can also hide its body, colorless and formless, and hide in the void.

It was also because of this that seeing that Beast Yin did not respond to Qianmu Zhiluo's coercion, Tantaiming was extremely puzzled.

As he closed his eyes and concentrated, the sound that only he could hear, the sound from the soul, sounded in his ears.

This is the key that he is most suitable to lead the wounded department. The person recorded by Zhiluo can speak out through the spell, and the other end of the spell at the moment is naturally Tantai Fu.

Father he...

How will Master Chief make a decision?

After a short but long moment, Tan Taiming opened his eyes again with an unbelievable expression.

"Master Tantai, can the chief executive make a decision?"

The hundred riders on the side were approaching, Tan Taiming looked at him, took a deep breath, and didn't answer, but jumped up and shot at the armored knight like an arrow, smashing him to the ice wall above.

Under the huge difference in strength, the knight was beaten to the point of unconsciousness. Tan Taiming lifted him up in the air, raised to a height where the soldiers on both sides could see clearly, and pointed towards him loudly. The soldier said:
"There is an ordinance from the Holy Spirit, the order of the commander-in-chief, the rebellion of the West Asian Bandit Sect, and the whole army of the army to help West Asia put down the rebellion and suppress the bandits, protect our friendly country and good neighbors, and protect our country and Taian!"

The fainted knight was thrown into the air by Tan Taiming, and the big sword on his back was pulled back by Tan Taiming, piercing through the armor with a "poof", bursting out like a column of blood, the whole body It spun from the air and hit the frozen ground covered with white snow.

Looking at the sky again, Tan Taiming lowered his head and pointed at the great sword that pierced through the knight's back:
"Whoever holds this teaching seal is the enemy, kill!"
