"What a great General Shao!" Zhong Yangxu snorted and sneered again and again, looking back at the hall that was closely guarded by his disciples.
The generals refused to listen. This was not too unexpected. The troops in Beizhou were all direct descendants of Shao Dengyun. In this troubled world where the King's Banner was changing at the top of the city, Shao's fortune, honor and disgrace all depended on him. Well, there is really no need to be surprised when this result occurs.
I have known this truth before, but there is no way. The situation in Beizhou is like this, and we need the power of unity to fight against the outside world and the inside.
Although we have long known that this has advantages and disadvantages, when the disadvantages are actually presented before our eyes, it is still difficult to accept.
Another disciple came quickly to report: "Master, a group of golden wings suddenly died suddenly in the letter room. They must have been poisoned!"
Zhong Yangxu understood as soon as he heard that this should be a batch of golden wings that Shao Pingbo had special connections with the outside world. Fearing that there might be hidden dangers, they were dealt with immediately as soon as Shao Pingbo left.
This could not have been done by Shao Pingbo himself. It can only mean that it was arranged in advance.
"Check and see who did it." Zhong Yangxu said solemnly.
In the hall, there are rows of weapon racks on each side. There is a long desk in the middle hall with a pile of documents hanging at one end.
It was already dawn, but the two rows of lights in the hall were still flickering.
After the case, the gray-haired Shao Dengyun sat upright, holding a piece of white silk in his hand and wiping a saber, looking calm and relaxed.
Behind him is a piece of clean armor.
The person guarding the door stepped aside and Zhong Yangxu came in. He stopped in front of the case and stared at Shao Dengyun who was attentive.
"Did you kill my son?" Shao Dengyun asked as he was wiping the blade of the sword. He didn't raise his eyes and continued to do his own thing. Then he added, "My son is not that easy to deal with. He must have missed it, right?"
Zhong Yangxu's pupils narrowed slightly, and he instantly realized his mistake.
The man in front of him was controlled immediately and all contact with the outside world was cut off. He probably didn't know that Dachanshan was attacking Shao Pingbo, but the other party just guessed it. What does this mean? It shows that controlling the opponent's movements here allows the other party to make a judgment.
I wonder if Shao Dengyun could see it, how could Shao Pingbo not see it? It must also be the action on the control side that triggered the warning that Shao Pingbo set in advance.
We were still wondering how Shao Pingbo got the news in time while he was being detained in the dungeon. According to the guard disciple, the only abnormality before the incident was that an oil lamp in the dungeon suddenly went out.
At this time, he finally came to his senses and understood what the problem was. Zhong Yangxu secretly regretted that he should have suddenly entered the prison without any warning and took action.
Regret was regret, but he knew in his heart that it was impossible to do this beforehand. The person was in their hands and could be solved at any time. Who would go to the dungeon to sneak up on Shao Pingbo
"Have you known for a long time that there is a secret passage in the dungeon?" Zhong Yangxu asked.
"The secret passage? I don't know." Shao Dengyun sighed, "There's something you don't know. The last time Liu'er eloped with someone, it was actually the boss who went to find him back. He was locked up in the dungeon at that time. , and your people were guarding it, how did you get out? At that time, I realized that there was something wrong with the dungeon. I didn’t know when he dug a tunnel in the house. Before, he took the initiative to imprison himself in the dungeon, so I knew He’s just in case something unexpected happens.”
Zhong Yangxu: "Brother Shao, you really gave birth to a good son!"
Shao Dengyun stroked the blade, "Okay? I don't think so! This child is so much like his mother, as smart as his mother. Guo Hui Yi Yao, his mother's early death has nothing to do with this, so he gave his hard work to I'm exhausted. I really hope he can be a little stupider. He's too smart and too hard-working. Look at him, he's so young. Why bother? Loyalty to the general is fundamental. I didn't want to rebel against Yan back then, but I couldn't. Withstand his torment! If he had been stupid and not fought over the merits, I would have retreated and lived in seclusion, like some old brothers, waiting for the restoration of the Shang Dynasty before joining me. The Shao family must be in a different situation now, too. It wouldn’t be like today. Without these conflicts of interest, the whole family would not be fighting each other. So, what’s so good about it, cleverness will lead to mistakes!”
Zhong Yangxu: "Brother Shao, immediately order a search and notify various places in Beizhou to set up pass searches to try to find his whereabouts. I promise that as long as I catch him, I will give Brother Shao a face and a way to survive!"
These words were false. The sect had already given an order. If Shao Pingbo was caught here, it would be impossible for Shao Pingbo to survive, and he could not be the master.
But there is no way, the manpower of Dazen Mountain is limited, what about the monks? It's so vast in all directions, and with the few manpower he has, it's not even enough to search the city, let alone go out to search. Finding Shao Pingbo is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Even if it is difficult to mobilize all the disciples from the entire Dazen Mountain, we can only launch a larger-scale manhunt.
But it's not possible to deceive Shao Dengyun without lying. The Beizhou people didn't listen to Dachanshan at all.
Shao Dengyun shook his head, obviously not agreeing.
Zhong Yangxu said in a deep voice: "Brother Shao, if he misses this opportunity and is caught by us, he will have no way to survive. I am doing it for his own good!"
Shao Dengyun sighed: "Brother Zhong, there is no better son than a father. After all these years, I have finally understood my son. There is really no need to mobilize troops. Since he decided to escape and leave, he must have taken a comprehensive response. You can't catch him." . Instead of wasting our efforts, it is better to forget it. Once he escapes this time, it is impossible to come back again. It is all over. Why should we make a fuss and attract the covetousness of external forces? It is not good for the overall situation of Beizhou! Brother Zhong, don’t worry, there are still people below. There are so many brothers, as long as you forget about it, I won’t mess around, and I have to give an explanation to those brothers who have been following me for many years even if I don’t think about myself.”
Zhong Yangxu: "Brother Shao, we have known each other for many years. Don't make things difficult for me, and I don't want to make things difficult for you."
"Brother Zhong, even if I order him, I can't catch him. Even if I can catch him, I won't be able to give this order." Shao Dengyun refused with a firm attitude.
Then he stood up with a knife and pestle, stared at Zhong Yangxu and said word by word: "Tiger poison cannot eat its seeds! If I gave this order, I would be sorry for his dead mother. He has reached this point, and I As a father, you have to bear the blame, I owe him, and this time I have fulfilled my father's responsibility a little bit."
"Brother Zhong, I have been a soldier all my life and have gone through hundreds of battles. How many brothers have fallen in front of me? Rivers of blood, mountains of bones, life and death, separation and death. I have seen more than Brother Zhong. I have even seen families broken up, people killed, and flesh and blood broken. After what I have experienced, what else do I have to be afraid of? Shao is here alone with his flesh and blood, and he can be cut into pieces with a knife!"
He held the saber horizontally in his hand and handed it to the opponent with force, showing an aura of admitting death and beheading.
Zhong Yangxu stared at him coldly. The two looked at each other. Shao Dengyun did not shy away, his eyes were bright...
Finally, Zhong Yangxu came out of the door holding back his anger without doing anything to Shao Dengyun.
Without the sect's will, he would not dare to do anything to Shao Dengyun. The generals' previous refusal to listen was a warning. If Shao Dengyun was acted upon arbitrarily, Beizhou would inevitably be in chaos.
Shao Dengyun holds the military power and has so much influence on Beizhou that even Shao Pingbo dare not easily replace him. It would be difficult to remove Shao Dengyun without cleaning up Beizhou...
Two giant birds came from the sky and hovered over Beizhou Fucheng. The six people on board looked down.
Huang Lie and others finally arrived, much later than the summons for Jin Wing.
It's not that the flight speed of this large bird is not as fast as the golden wing. In fact, the speed of long-distance flight is even better.
One reason why the Golden Wings arrive first is that the released Golden Wings set off early. Secondly, the Golden Wings can basically directly lock the exact target location when sending messages, and they basically fly in a straight line. For large manned birds, they are purely subject to human control. It is actually difficult for people without high-altitude control experience to make the birds fly straight to the target. They only know the approximate direction and must constantly make direction adjustments along the way.
Huang Lie and others obviously belong to the kind of people who have no driving experience. In addition, they have experienced night flying and cannot see the reference objects on the ground clearly. It is reasonable for them to fly a little more in the wrong direction, so they came with Golden Wings. The time is quite different.
Two birds fell from the sky and landed in the Beizhou Governor's Mansion.
After jumping off the bird, Guan Fangyi moved her body slightly and found that flying a large bird for a long distance was not as comfortable as she imagined. There was not much room for movement. It was strange that she could feel comfortable after being restrained and unable to move for a long time.
"Master!" Zhong Yangxu led a group of people to pay homage.
Huang Lie's expression was not very good, "Senior Brother Zhong, are you kidding me?"
On the way, he received a message from Golden Wings about half an hour ago and already knew that Shao Pingbo had run away. Not to mention how angry this result made him.
Not only because Shao Pingbo ran away, but because he was embarrassed in front of Niu Youdao. He had spoken harshly to others before, but unfortunately he was told what he said. Dachan Mountain was really like a plaything in Shao Pingbo's hands. He is really no match for me. How can this make him, the leader, embarrassed
The faces of the two accompanying elders were not good-looking. The gifted bird was gone, and things worth tens of millions of gold coins were wasted. It was a huge loss!
Zhong Yangxu naturally didn't know about this situation, so he told the story with great difficulty, and presented the last piece of paper with the aphorism left by Shao Pingbo in the secret room of the tunnel.
This aphorism made Huang Lie's teeth stick out. It really confirmed Niu Youdao's statement once again. Shao Pingbo didn't take Dachan Mountain seriously at all and could deal with it easily!
Niu Youdao stretched out his two fingers and pinched the piece of paper, took it out from Huang Lie's hand, glanced at the content on it, and sneered: "Dachanshan is really powerful. After staying by his side for so many years, he was... It’s simply unbelievable that a tunnel was dug right under my nose and I didn’t even know it!”
There was sarcasm in his words, and his expression was ugly, which could be described as gloomy.
He spent so much effort and careful planning, and finally forced Shao Pingbo into a desperate situation, but unexpectedly he failed at the last step. It's strange that he was in a good mood.
