Chapter 184 The Prince and the Witch

Qinzhou.

Zhao Yun looked at the enemy general in front of him asking to surrender, and took the State Shepherd Soldier Talisman handed over by him, and the soldiers behind him burst into cheers.

In less than ten days, the entire Qinzhou was captured.This naturally depends on the strength of Zhao Yun, Li Yuanba and others. In addition, those masters of the rivers and lakes are in front, and the ordinary soldiers hardly suffer much damage.

Most of the defenders in Qinzhou would be defeated at the first touch, and some of them didn't even have the courage to fight after seeing the Bei'an army.Some families and generals who stayed in Qinzhou thought they could hold on for a while.

But when he saw the army of the Bei'an Army pressing down on the border, he immediately knew that his previous thoughts were nothing but delusions.

Even if the number of Qinzhou soldiers is doubled, tripled, and there are five or six sects like Bai Sumen united, facing the [-] Bei'an army is still vulnerable to a single blow.

Now that Qinzhou has fallen, Bai Sumen will not recover.

After finding out the location of his sect, Zhao Yun didn't go there himself, but sent thousands of elite soldiers, led by Li Yuanba, and returned after a while.

According to what the soldiers said, the Demon Cult had indeed set up a lot of organs, but to Li Yuanba it was like a toy.The fallen stones, the spikes on the ground, and even some sprocket axes were all easily crushed by Li Yuanba.

He almost flowed through those traps all the way, stunned the defending Bai Sumen.

After that, there was a merciless massacre. Su Yuan had no intention of recruiting these members of the Demon Cult. They all had bloody cases at hand, so they simply wiped them out together.

After the disciples were cleaned up, the sect was burnt down under a fire, and the Baisu sect, which had a great reputation in Qinzhou and even the north, disappeared like this.

However, what Zhao Yun noticed was that the master of Baisu Sect didn't seem to be in the sect, until all the disciples were dead, the existence of this legendary martial arts master who could sneak into the palace and kill the emperor didn't show up.

It doesn't matter if you run away after getting wind of it, or hide in the dark and prepare to sabotage.Anyway, the mountain gate has been destroyed, and there is only a bare-handed commander left, who can't make any troubles.

After Qinzhou was captured, Zhao Yun didn't delay much. After leaving behind the soldiers to maintain law and order, he brought the army back to Beijing.

He has received the news that Su Yuan asked him to go back as soon as possible after rectifying the Qinzhou affairs.

Although he didn't say what it was, Zhao Yun guessed where the troops were going to be mobilized.

……

The god Qianle Lingmeng who appeared in front of Su Yuan surprised him a little.

She did not expect that the girl Shen Lian mentioned would be such a young girl.He looked only sixteen or seventeen years old, similar to Zhou Shu.

Such a little girl, traveling across the ocean alone to deliver a letter?There must be something in him.

Shen Lian resigned first, and a translator stayed behind to communicate for the two of them.

Shen Qianleling dreamed of Su Yuan, and was even more surprised when he knew that he was the leader of the Bei'an Army.On the one hand, it is also because of age. The youngest shogun in Dongwa is in his 30s, and Su Yuan looks half as young.

On the other hand, it was the strong aura that Su Yuan made her feel.

As a great witch, she knows the art of watching people, which is similar to the "watching Qi art" in the Central Plains.She can see the strength of the aura and the color of the vitality of different people, so she can roughly judge whether the person is healthy or not.

In her glazed eyes, what she saw was a group of extremely exuberant golden flames.The golden flame surrounded Su Yuan's body, which was a symbol of extreme health and integrity.

If a person often lies and speaks wrongly, the color of his aura will tend to be gray and dark, which can be seen at a glance as a great witch.

Since Shenqianle Reimu inherited the ability of the great witch, she has never seen someone with such an aura, which made her dazzled in just two or three seconds.

"Hello?" Seeing the girl's silence, Su Yuan took the initiative to speak.

Only then did Shenqianle Lingmeng come back to his senses, and bowed slightly embarrassedly: "I have met Lord Su, I am Shenqianle Lingmeng from the Shenqianle clan in Dongwanaijing."

"The Shenqianle clan..." Su Yuan looked at the red maiden costume that Lingmeng was wearing, and guessed, "Looking at your outfit, you shouldn't be an ordinary person, right?"

"Yes, I am a witch."

"Witch, is your god real?"

"..."

Shenqianle Lingmeng didn't expect Su Yuan to say such a sentence suddenly, she thought it was teasing at first, but after a closer look, she found that Su Yuan was really asking with curiosity.

She hesitated and said, "...Maybe it exists."

As a shrine maiden, she should believe in the existence of gods, but as she inherited the soul of the great shrine maiden, she has many memories.

In these memories, every time the disaster is dealt with, it is the great witch of the past.The gods never showed up to help, which made her prefer to believe in herself rather than pin her hopes on the gods.

"Come on, let's sit down and talk."

Su Yuan took her to sit down in the pavilion in the courtyard, had tea served, and talked while eating.

Shenqianle Lingmengxu sat on the edge of the stone bench, her body was slightly stiff, feeling very uncomfortable.

In her imagination, the meeting with the leader of the Beian Army should be very serious, and she was even prepared to face severe questioning and criticism.

As a result, none of the things he imagined happened. Prince Bei'an looked only a few years older than her, and he was very kind like a brother next door, without any airs of being in a high position.

This made her uncomfortable, but she felt a little at ease in her heart.

She thought that maybe Su Yuan was such a person, that's why he was able to get the support of so many people.If she was a commoner under the Bei'an Army, she would definitely like to support such a leader.

Thinking of this, she relaxed a lot and began to ask Su Yuan for his opinion.

"Prince Su has read that letter, what do you think?"

"I see, but your names are too familiar. I don't know him, so why help him deal with the shogunate? What are the benefits?"

Su Yuan was so straightforward, Shen Qianle Lingmeng didn't know what to say for a while.

"And ah." Su Yuan continued, "How can I be sure that this is not a conspiracy. If your daimyo and the shogunate are in collusion, then the conspiracy is to trick me into sending troops over there, and then lay an ambush."

"That's not the case!" Shenqianle Lingmeng said hastily.

Su Yuan shook his head: "You say it's not impossible, you have to have evidence. Shen Qianle... I'll call you Miss Shen Qianle. I believe you should know many things that are not written in the letter. Tell me, if you can Convince me, then I will consider this matter."

After Su Yuan finished speaking, he picked up a piece of almond cake and ate it while looking at Shenqianle Lingmeng, waiting for her to speak.

Compared with him, Shenqianle Lingmeng couldn't be so relaxed.She didn't touch any food on the table, and she didn't bother to eat while talking about important matters related to the survival of millions of people in Eastern Japan.

At this moment, she knew that to persuade Su Yuan, a letter alone would definitely not work.Su Yuan's suspicion is very reasonable, she must come up with more convincing words.

"Prince Su, have you heard of... Yamata no Orochi?"
