,.
After looking down at the content of the summons in his hand, Chen Tingxiu was speechless. Niu Youdao and Linghuqiu actually became sworn brothers!
Looking up at the leader, he understood why the leader looked a little unnatural. [oM]
Regarding the war horse, Tianyu Sect knew that the matter was troublesome before taking action, so the disciples sent to Qi State were all carefully selected and capable disciples, but in the end they either fell into disgrace or returned home in vain.
Maybe the qualifications, experience, and cultivation of the senior officials of Tianyu Sect are higher than those of the capable disciples, but it does not mean that the ability to do things is better than those of those capable disciples. Some problems cannot be solved by the force of Tianyu Sect in Qi State, and those capable disciples are powerless. The senior officials of Tianyu Sect may not be able to do what they have accomplished. The senior officials sent to Qi State after the sect also failed, which undoubtedly proves this point.
But things always have to be solved. However, when faced with a complicated situation, it became a question of who to send. Later, the headmaster said that there is a lack of disciples with Niu Youdao's ability in the sect. It is suggested that everyone should be more selective when recruiting disciples in the future. Think more about this!
Everyone understood what the leader meant. After observing some things, Niu Youdao did have the ability to control complex situations. The leader wanted Niu Youdao to try it. However, Niu Youdao is not a disciple of Tianyumen. If you let Niu Youdao go, Tianyumen will not look good. Do you want Tianyumen to admit that it is incompetent
I can't say this, I still need some dignity.
During the discussion, all kinds of opinions came out.
Some people deny that they are not optimistic about Niu Youdao. The reason is that if he is really capable, how could he be kicked out of the Shangqing Sect like a lost dog
This view tends to be demeaning!
Someone suggested that Niu Youdao could be recruited into Tianyumen, and then it would be logical to let Niu Youdao do things.
This view tends to burn bridges!
At this moment, Niu Youdao broke the contract again and demanded that the three factions give in to the three factions in terms of drinks. They knew that Niu Youdao and the three sects were currently wearing the same pair of trousers, so they discussed and passed the blame. Unexpectedly, Niu Youdao was still hiding from Qing Xiu, with no intention of showing up. [oM]
Until now, after seeing the secret report, they knew that Niu Youdao could finally hold back, but no one expected that Linghuqiu would take the initiative to find Niu Youdao, and Niu Youdao and Linghuqiu actually became sworn brothers.
The leader had originally asked Linghuqiu for help, but Linghuqiu declined politely and could not help. If Niu Youdao defeated Linghuqiu this time, and Linghuqiu finally came to help, how could the leader be embarrassed
Chen Tingxiu handed the secret letter to several other elders to pass on and read. After reading, the elders were all silent...
After lingering in Qingshan County for more than a day, Niu Youdao finally spoke again about the war horses.
The brothers were easy to talk to, so Linghuqiu readily agreed and agreed on an itinerary.
Looking at Linghuqiu who responded readily at the wine table, Hongxiu and Hongfu looked at each other secretly.
There are some things that the two of them know very well, and they worry that Linghuqiu's face has not been revealed. If the sworn sworn relationship is not entirely due to Dongguo Haoran, then it is because Niu Youdao's words to the two of them, "If you are determined to win," the hidden meaning in his words has played a role. It means that if you don't give it, you will fall out. Those who dare to kill Yan Shi, such words have weight.
However, Niu Youdao's attitude was not so blunt. He gave the teacher a chance to step down, and immediately turned to the idea of sworn brothers, so the husband happily agreed.
However, the two of them also believed that the husband made friends everywhere, and as long as someone proposed to become sworn sworn friends, the husband would probably not refuse, but no one had ever mentioned it like this before. But this Taoist master used soft and hard knives at the same time, and he was suspected of forcing his husband to surrender.
Let's look at this Taoist man who has always entertained me attentively, never left his mouth with the word 'brother', is generous with his face, and seems to have a harmless smile.
The two of them could clearly remember the situation during the negotiation.
This man asked for a war horse without saying a few words. The gentleman expressed difficulty, but this man took advantage of the situation and agreed. A few hundred horses would be fine, so the gentleman had no choice but to agree. Unexpectedly, the person who had promised well went back to increase the amount of money. When the discussion could not go on, he immediately stopped talking and jumped directly to the head of asking for the two of them. When they refused, he continued to increase the amount of money and asked for more money from them. He secretly threatened her with a 'knife'. Threats on your waist. It won't make you feel uncomfortable, and you will immediately avoid the topic after knowing it well, and jump to the topic of sworn friendship.
Now that the sworn sworn relationship has been settled, there are good food and drinks, and the brothers have something to talk about, the topic has returned to the war horse, and it has circled back to the original point, and finally achieved the goal!
The two of them were quite suspicious. If the sworn sworn relationship was not settled, they wondered whether the Taoist master would cause something else in the future...
A lake between mountains is considered a forbidden area. Yuan Gang wants to prohibit anyone from trespassing in the forbidden area.
Of course, Niu Youdao was an exception. He slowly walked up the hillside and looked down at the situation between the mountain cols. He saw sparkling waves on the lake. If you look closely, you will find that there are things like wheat stalks sliding on the water. From a high position, you can vaguely see them. There is a group of people swimming underwater.
When approaching the shore, a figure quietly emerged from the water and slowly touched the shore.
Suddenly, a group of people hiding in the grass on the shore rushed out, and a fierce grappling began.
The enemy and the enemy fought each other in the water, and the enemy and the enemy struggled on the shore. People on both sides kept falling and getting up.
In more than a year, with ample food supply and high-intensity training, a group of teenagers have changed a lot. Both in temperament and figure, they have become adult boys.
Niu Youdao looked back and saw Yuan Gang slowly walking down the hillside. Niu Youdao turned back and continued to watch the fighting at the lake.
Yuan Gang stood side by side with him and asked: "Going to Qi State?"
Niu Youdao nodded: "Tomorrow."
Yuan Gang nodded, "I'll go get ready." He turned around and left.
Niu Youdao shouted: "You don't have to go."
Yuan Gang turned around and looked at him with burning eyes, wanting to explain.
Niu Youdao: "This time I am not as weak as before. There are enough people around me. I need trustworthy people to look after the house, so that I can have no worries."
Yuan Gang: "That's not the reason. Are you afraid that I will become a burden to you?"
Niu Youdao: "Yes! You should know that this place is different from before, and there is not much room for you to play."
"Just give me a destination. I won't go with you." Yuan Gang raised his chin towards the group of people by the lake. "You can't just stay at home and practice. You need to go out and gain experience. If you don't experience a real crisis, you won't truly understand. The meaning of training." After saying that, he turned around and left.
Niu Youdao frowned. Why did he let this guy know the situation when he was hiding it
In the swaying carriage, Niu Youdao and Shang Shuqing sat face to face and returned to Qingshan County together.
There was silence in the carriage for a long time, and Shang Shuqing suddenly tried to ask, "Are you going to say goodbye to my brother?"
Niu Youdao, who put his hands on the hilt of his sword and rested his chin, smiled and said, "I've been bored for a long time. It's time to go out and get some air."
Shang Shuqing was silent.
The carriage came to the back door of the Sheriff's Mansion, and the two of them got out of the car one after another and entered the mansion.
Lan Ruoting had official business to deal with, and since he was away, only Shang Chaozong came to greet him in person.
Shang Chaozong naturally smiled enthusiastically, while Bai Yao, who was standing in the corner of the courtyard, watched from a distance.
After sitting down in the hall, Shang Chaozong served tea in person. Niu Youdao stood up hurriedly and did not dare to say a word.
The two parties sat down again, and Shang Chaozong asked: "Master Tao, what are your orders here?"
Niu Youdao smiled: "As for the war horses, I plan to go to Qi to see the situation in person."
"I'm afraid it's not very safe over there. Taoist Master can just sit here and take command. You don't have to risk it yourself." Shang Chaozong said worriedly, but when he saw the incomprehensible look in his sister's eyes, he felt a little guilty and embarrassed.
Niu Youdao: "I don't know anything about the people and things over there, how can I sit in command? It's better to go and take a look."
Shang Chaozong: "I will contact Tianyumen and ask Tianyumen to send more experts to escort them."
Niu Youdao shook his head: "I don't need an escort, I have my own arrangements. But I have to ask the prince to say hello to Tianyu Sect. If anything happens, let the people there from Tianyu Sect fully cooperate with me."
"Okay!" Shang Chaozong nodded in agreement and asked, "When will we set off?"
Niu Youdao: "Tomorrow!"
In the evening, by the lake, a group of young men stood as straight as guns and stood neatly.
Yuan Gang walked out of the wooden house by the lake, while Yuan Feng, Niu Lin, Yuan Huo, and Niushan carried out several large baskets of things.
Standing opposite a group of young men, Yuan Gang said solemnly: "Are you all full?"
"Enough!" the crowd shouted in response.
Yuan Gang turned his head and said behind him: "Distribute the things."
Yuan Feng immediately shouted the slogan, and the young men immediately came over one by one to receive things from the four people, including maps, copper coins, daggers, and packages.
Things were distributed in place, and the boys returned to their original positions.
Yuan Gang said loudly: "One hundred copper coins per person, a dagger, and a package. In the package is one day's worth of dry food and a change of clothes. This is your ration for the next few months. It's up to you whether you can eat enough on the way. You deserve to starve to death for what you are capable of!”
"Everyone spreads out, five people form a group, and each group has a map. There is a marked destination on the map. As for walking, running, or whatever, you have to figure it out yourself. In short, you must arrive within the designated time. If you can’t make it, no one will wait for you.”
"When you are ready, go back to rest immediately and keep your spirits up. After midnight tonight, we will set off secretly from the back mountain on time! Do you hear me clearly?"
"You hear me clearly," the crowd shouted in response.
Yuan Gang had an expressionless and cold look on his face, turned around and left alone.
Feng, Lin, Huo, and Shan then organized all the people into groups and explained some precautions.
Just as Yuan Gang said, after midnight, a group of figures escaped into the back mountain in the dark and disappeared deep into the forest without a word.
Yuan Gang was among them and set off earlier than Niu Youdao.
The monks of the three sects hidden in the mountains and forests were also accustomed to this scene and did not make any other associations.
At dawn, the golden light of the rising sun spread all over the place. In a courtyard on the Liuxian Sect side, there were five masters from each of the Liuxian Sect, Fuyun Sect, and Lingxiu Mountain gathered here.
Gongsun Bu followed Niu Youdao. This time Niu Youdao asked him to go with him. He was accompanied by five disciples from Wuliang Mountain, each carrying a bird cage with golden wings on his back. ,.
