Rise of the Heavens

Chapter 279
Soon, a middle-aged strong man quickly came to the tower. This strong man only had one eye, but his eyes were shining brightly, which added a bit of heroism.

He saw Gao Cheng, Dou Wei, and Duan Zhixuan from a distance. Among them, Gao Cheng was wearing a white sable fur robe with a long sword hanging from his waist. Different, at first glance, he is not an ordinary person.

This kind of appearance and imposing manner should not be false.The strong man hurriedly said: "Liu Zongdao, the second deacon of the lower ranch, met the third son!"

With a wave of his hand, the guards in gray immediately put down the suspension bridge. Liu Zongdao stepped forward and said in a respectful voice: "Third Young Master, please follow me. I have passed the news to the owner, and she will come to welcome her in person immediately!"

The three of them followed Liu Zongdao into the ranch, and what they saw was a road paved with gravel, leading directly to Pegasus Castle. On both sides of the road, different types of cattle and sheep were separated by wooden fences. The shepherds grazed and the farmers plowed. Doing his job in peace.

Gao Cheng sighed: "I heard about the name of the Pegasus Ranch earlier, but after seeing it today, I realized that the ranch is not only excellent in herding horses, but also a paradise in itself! If the world is like a ranch, why worry about the world being injustice?"

Liu Zongdao said with a smile on the side: "Thank you for the praise of the third son. The ranch is just a place for us to avoid the chaos of war. A hero like King Tang is the one who calms down the troubled times..."

Everyone was talking, and the roar of war horses trampling the ground could be heard in his ears. Gao Cheng looked up and saw dozens of knights galloping from Pegasus Castle, surrounded by these knights like stars. Pretend to be a woman.This woman's long hair seemed to be pouring down like a waterfall, her appearance was beautiful, her skin was slightly bronzed, exuding vitality and health.

Her phoenix eyes flashed, and she saw the people on the road ahead, and she led her men to gallop to a distance of a hundred paces, then got off the horse very neatly.

"The arrival of the third son really makes the pasture flourish. The little girl Shang Xiuxun has already prepared a banquet in the castle, and I invite the third son to move!"

She is Shang Xiuxun, the owner of Pegasus Ranch, the most beautiful beauty in the world of Tang Dynasty, she behaved gracefully, glanced at the three of Gao Cheng, smiled, and invited them actively.

Gao Cheng looked at the stunning beauty in front of him, showing appreciation. Shang Xiuxun's appearance and temperament were very attractive.Even he was a little tempted.

In the world of the Tang Dynasty, Shi Feixuan, Wanwan, Shi Qingxuan, Shang Xiuxun, and Shang Xiufang are the most outstanding beauties. There are so many beauties.

"Thank you, owner!" Gao Cheng smiled slightly.

After entering the castle, many pretty maids served many dishes and drinks, each dish was so exquisite that one could smell a fragrance from a long distance away.Shang Xiuxun likes to taste the delicacies from all over the world. There are many famous chefs from all over the world gathered in the ranch. Only the imperial dining room can compare with the ranch's dishes.

The crowd was divided into the guest of honor and sat down separately. Among them, in addition to Shang Xiuxun and Liu Zongdao, the Pegasus Ranch also had the chief deacon Liang Zhi, the third deacon Tao Shusheng, and the veteran masters of the ranch, Shang Peng and Shang He.

"Third Young Master, I remember that the one who came to the ranch to discuss the purchase of war horses should be Princess Xiuning, right? Why is it changed to Third Young Master now?"

After everyone chatted, laughed and drank, Shang Xiuxun showed a trace of curiosity and asked aloud.

Holding the wine glass in his right hand, Gao Cheng said calmly, "It was my elder sister who came to discuss the purchase of war horses. I came to the ranch this time because I heard that the four bandits intend to invade the ranch, so I came to help, lest these bandits offend the owner. It will affect my Li family plan!"

Four bandits!
Hearing this name, the faces of the people at Pegasus Ranch changed. No blade of grass turned to Batian, chickens and dogs didn't leave a house to meet the top, the scorched earth was full of frizz, crying ghosts and howling Cao Yinglong.The four bandits ran rampant along the Yangtze River, and their vicious reputation spread far and wide. They have thousands of bandits under their command, and the four bandits themselves are also first-class masters in the rivers and lakes.
If these four people work together, they will have the ability to break through the city and destroy one side. The Pegasus Ranch is not far from the Yangtze River. I don't know how much money they have accumulated for a hundred years, and they have already been targeted by the four bandits.

But when Gao Cheng mentioned this matter now, it meant that the four bandits were ready to attack the ranch.That's why everyone was so shocked.

Tao Shusheng, the third deacon of the ranch, had a flash of light in his eyes, but his face was also shocked and angry.If Gao Cheng hadn't known that he was a traitor, he might have been deceived by his performance.

Shang Xiuxun glanced at Xiumei lightly, and said: "Thank you, Third Young Master, for telling us the news. It has not been a day or two for the four bandits to covet the ranch. We have already made preparations to resist. As long as the four bandits dare to come, our ranch will never Will let them go easily!"

After Gao Cheng told the news about the four bandits, everyone in the Pegasus Ranch lost the mood to drink.When the banquet was over, Shang Xiuxun made a confession, arranged the three of them in the guest room, and immediately called many masters from the ranch to discuss strategies to deal with the four bandits.It can be seen that Shang Xiuxun is not as calm as he appears.

night.

The stars twinkled in the sky, and the moonlight shone down, illuminating the entire castle. The neighing of cattle and sheep could be heard faintly outside the castle. A figure passed the moon gate behind the castle and came to the garden in the backyard.

In the garden, there is a winding corridor. The originally narrow place gives people a sense of spaciousness. There is a pool on the left side and a small pavilion in the middle, connected by a small bridge.

The figure flitted across the garden, followed the stream that flowed into the pond, and finally arrived at the destination after passing through a bamboo forest.The figure stopped, revealing Gao Cheng's appearance.

"If Lu Miaozi hadn't known for a long time that Lu Miaozi was living in seclusion here, it would be very difficult to find this person's trace even if he was an innate master! No wonder Lu Miaozi was able to use the mountains and rivers to escape from the pursuit of Yin Queen Zhu Yuyan!"

Gao Cheng sighed in his heart, the sound of water rushing in front of him, a square pavilion facing a high cliff, and a waterfall pouring down on the opposite side, if it weren't for the bamboo forest separating the sound, the roaring sound of the waterfall could be transmitted to the castle.

On the ground close to the cliff, there is a two-story building with waterfalls, mountain springs, bamboo forests, attics... The natural scenery and manpower are integrated, incomparably harmonious, very harmonious, giving people a different kind of beauty.

This kind of layout makes this attic look quite immortal, as if a fairy who does not eat the fireworks of the world lives in seclusion here.

"The honored guest is here, I am sorry to welcome you! Please forgive me!"

An old voice came from the attic, and then there was a creak, the door of the attic opened, and an old man with an equestrian crown came out. , Wrinkles all over the face.The body is straight, with an awe-inspiring demeanor.
