Zaan tiptoed, and the whole person flew silently to the top of a large tree next to him, looking into the distance through the dense canopy.
I saw a group of people slowly walking out of the corner at the end of the corridor. The leader was the city lord Pei Shao, whom he had seen outside the city before. He was talking to a young man next to him.
Although his attitude was not flattering, he was smiling and speaking politely. Obviously, the identity of the other party made him attach great importance.
Zuan looked carefully, the young man was dressed in luxurious clothes, and the details such as the cuffs and necklines were bordered with gold thread. .
"It doesn't matter, you are going to pick up the imperial envoy. This time, the prince came here in a low-key manner, and I didn't want too many people to know about it." The young man suddenly frowned as he spoke, and moved his feet subconsciously.
From the beginning, the way he walked occasionally seemed a little unnatural, and every time there was a gloomy look in his eyes.
Pei Shao obviously noticed this and asked with concern: "Is the prince injured? There are a lot of elixir in the house, which should help the prince's injury."
"Do we have any elixir in Prince Qi's Mansion?" The young man rolled his eyes, "It's just the after-effects of a small injury, it's not in the way."
Despite saying this, his tone was gritted, obviously not as calm as he had shown.
Anger from Zhao Zhi +444+444+444…
Zu An is happy, this person is naturally Zhao Zhi, the prince of Qi Wang, this guy is really my lucky star, and he will send a greeting gift as soon as he arrives.
As for the discomfort on the opponent's leg, it was obviously caused by the fact that he broke his leg at the beginning. Although he has recovered, it is obviously still a pain when it is windy and rainy.
Nowadays, the weather in the northwest winter is very cold, and this feeling is naturally more obvious.
He looked to the side, and Zhao Zhi followed an old man a few feet behind him. His silver hair was neatly combed.
This is also an old acquaintance, the guest Qing of Qi Wangfu, Han Fengqiu, a top master of the ninth rank.
Zuan thought that it would be miserable to be a guest minister in the Prince Qi's mansion. Several famous guest ministers had been destroyed in the secret realm of West Dog Hill before. Now Han Fengqiu is left alone. I wonder if he will panic.
At this time, Pei Shao immediately understood that this injury was mostly a pain that Prince Qi didn't want to mention, and secretly regretted his abruptness just now, so naturally he would not ask again: "With the abilities of the prince and the prince, no matter how serious the injury is, it's no problem. "
Zhao Zhi responded absentmindedly, then looked aside: "By the way, I've heard Miss Pei's name for a long time, why haven't I seen her?"
Hearing his words, Zaan's eyes narrowed, this guy came to Damanman? Boy, your way is narrow!
Pei Shao replied, "I have already sent someone to invite him."
At this moment, a maid hurried over: "Master, the young lady doesn't want to go out, saying that she wants to retreat and doesn't want to see anyone."
Pei Shao's smile froze: "Useless things, go and invite them again!"
"Yes!" The maid looked aggrieved, but seeing the master's anger, she didn't dare to distinguish anything, and hurriedly turned and left.
At this time, Pei Shao explained to Zhao Zhi: "This daughter of my family was spoiled by her mother a few years ago, and the prince saw the joke, and I hope the prince will not mind."
Zhao Zhi waved his hand: "It's okay, anyway, the main purpose of this trip is not to see her..."
Although Zuan wanted to continue listening to what they were going to discuss, these were not important compared to Pei Mianman.
Looking at the figure of the girl who was going away, he quietly followed.
In the distance, Han Fengqiu looked back at the tree where he had just been hiding, if he felt something.
"What's wrong?" Zhao Zhi asked curiously when he noticed his strangeness.
"It's nothing." Han Fengqiu was also a little strange. Just now, he seemed to feel a figure flashing by, but when he looked closely, there was nothing. Could it be that I was suspicious.
However, he quickly put these suspicions out of his mind. Just now, he has been scouting the surroundings with all his strength. With his current cultivation level, the entire Yunzhong County can hide from his eyes and ears no more than a handful, and those are all big people. , how could it be possible to touch Pei Shao's house, I must have been too nervous recently.
On the other side, Zu An followed the maid all the way to the inner courtyard, and gradually frowned. It stands to reason that Da Manman is the eldest young lady.
Soon the maid came to a dilapidated courtyard. Compared with the splendor of other residences in the City Lord's Mansion, this place can only be called dilapidated.
However, it is better than the quiet environment, which gives people a sense of refinement.
"Miss, Miss!" The maid kept knocking on the door, "Master wants you to go out anyway."
"Don't go!" A familiar voice came from the room, still as soft and sweet as before, but there seemed to be a hint of exhaustion in the voice.
"Da Man Man!" Hearing this familiar voice, Zaan couldn't help but feel his love and strode in.
"He Fang rat, dare to trespass the girl's residence!" At this moment, a cold snort sounded from the side.
At the same time, Zu An gave a warning sign and hurriedly jumped to the side several feet away.
And a long sword that shone with cold light had already stabbed where he used to be.
Zuan wiped his cold sweat secretly, and if he just slowed down for a while, he might have been stabbed out of a hole.
Previously in Yi County, he easily took the sword of Yi City City Lord Haoran with two fingers, but facing this sword, he never thought of using his fingers to pick it up, and his first reaction was to hurry to hide.
"Huh!" The other party was also a little surprised by his speed, but the sword in his hand didn't stop at all, as if an antelope with its horns continued to stab him.
Looking at the sword that was as fast as a meteor from the sky, Zaan Jingzhao Dasheng, it is not that he has never encountered a master swordsman, but this person in front of him can almost be called the best swordsman among all the people he has encountered.
While teleporting with a gale force to several dozen meters away, he summoned Baiming to carry out a mental attack on him, interfering with his next move.
Baiming's phantom rushed towards him with a neigh, and the man laughed: "Today there is wine and today is drunk, tomorrow's worry comes tomorrow's worry."
The whole person passed directly through Baiming, and Baiming's phantom dissipated little by little.
Zu An's spirit sank. This person is at least a master, and his soul is condensed far above him, so Baiming's mental attack is useless.
The key is that the opponent's swordsmanship is really amazing, completely pinpointing the time when his old strength has grown old and new strength has not risen.
With his current cultivation level, there is no limit to the number of times he can use Gale, but there is a cooling time of a few seconds between the two castings, and most people can't notice it at all. Plus his teleportation is too fast, even if he notices, he will catch it. Not that fleeting opportunity.
But the person in front of him is different. His figure is still behind, but his sword is faster than his people, and in a flash, he has reached Zuan.
Swordsmanship
Zuan didn't have time to think, he directly took out the Tai'a sword, and in a flash, he faced the flying sword more than a dozen times. No matter how cunning and strange the angle of the flying sword was, he was stopped one by one.
"Huh?" Now it was the person on the opposite side who was surprised. Although he didn't use his full strength, it was unheard of for all sword moves to be stopped.
At this time, Zaan also saw the other side clearly, a middle-aged man with a shaggy beard, with a few strands of curly hair on his forehead, with a sleepy look, and a huge blue gourd slung across his back, which can be felt from far away. The strong smell of alcohol.
It was freezing cold here, and he was still wearing a single shirt, with black stains from old wine or oil on his clothes, loose trousers, and even a pair of worn-out straw sandals on his feet.
The whole person is as sloppy as possible. If you were an ordinary person, the first reaction you would get when you dress like this would be a dirty and smelly beggar. The overall feeling at this time is endless loneliness and desolation.
As Zaun looked at the man, the other looked at him too.
Just now, because of being caught off guard, the clothes on Zuan's chest were cut open by the sword energy. Although he did not hurt himself, the skin inside was also exposed.
At this time, the sloppy middle-aged man's eyes suddenly fell on the flame-shaped pendant around his neck, and he couldn't help but stare.
"There are assassins!"
At this moment, there was a loud noise not far away. The two of them made such a big noise just now. If the guards of the City Lord's Mansion couldn't react any more, they would buy tofu and kill them.
Countless guards gathered around here, and some of them were extremely fast, apparently the masters of the city lord's mansion.
Even other places in the city have the atmosphere of masters rushing here.
The sloppy middle-aged man gave Zaan a deep look, and then disappeared into the distance.
Zaan's brows were slightly wrinkled, and it was obvious that Damanman could not be seen today. With his current status, he didn't want to conflict with the guards of the City Lord's Mansion, so he left in the other direction.
