After all, Niu Ben is a person who has seen big storms. Facing the question in Ping Tao's words, he coldly responded: "Then what do you think?"
"The general asked us to stop them. If possible, it would be better to kill them on the spot." Ping Tao also responded with a very indifferent voice.
Niu Ben said: "But the order I received was just to drive them out of the Tang Realm."
Ping Tao frowned, "Order? Whose order?"
Niu Ben said: "Naturally it is your majesty's order."
Ping Tao asked: "Do you have a certificate?"
Niu Ben smiled: "Are you questioning me?"
Ping Tao said: "The subordinates dare not."
Niu Ben said: "Don't worry, I definitely haven't reached the realm where I can preach the imperial edict. If I dare to say that, I will naturally have the relevant evidence. You just need to do your own thing."
Ping Tao was silent for a moment, and said, "This is a golden opportunity in a lifetime. If Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan are allowed to leave, it is very likely to cause a huge disaster in the future. Who can afford this responsibility?"
Niu Ben said: "I will bear all the consequences, so are you satisfied?"
Then he turned around and yelled at the herald: "Send my order. Without my permission, no one can act rashly. Those who violate the order will be killed without pardon!"
Ping Tao stared at Niu Ben for a long time, and then dropped a sentence: "The sir is confused!" He turned and left.
Niu Ben sent a subordinate and said, "Star Ping Tao to death. If he dares to act privately, he can take him down. If he resists, he will kill him without mercy."
The subordinate led away.
…
Zhou Fei and Ling Zhaoyan didn't know that their every move was still being monitored by Tang Jun. After experiencing some emotional fluctuations, the two of them now felt relaxed a lot.
Instead of riding horses and walking, the two wandered slowly in the mountains.
Since there is nowhere to go, the world is home, and any place can be a place for them to live in, so the speed of travel is not important anymore, what is important is the scenery along the way.
Ling Zhaoyan said, "Have you thought about it? If you look back now, everything can be saved."
Zhou Fei said: "Let's say we have already said that we are not going to talk about this topic? No matter how rugged the road next is, I will accompany you on it."
"
But where can we go? "Ling Zhaoyan raised her head and looked into the distance, her eyes a little dazed.
Zhou Fei said: "Farther ahead is the realm of Dawei. I haven’t been to Wei state yet, so let’s go to Wei state first. I heard that the people of Wei state are very good at cooking ingredients, and they are the best eaters of the Seven Great Wilderness Kingdoms. In the country, when my father was still in the past, His Majesty always rewarded him with some food from Wei, which was very delicious."
Ling Zhaoyan forced a smile and said, "Okay, then we will go to Wei State first."
At this moment, a rush of horseshoes came from a distance. Zhou Fei looked back and saw a small group of ten cavalrymen rushing towards them. From the armor style of the cavalry, Zhou Fei You can see these Datang troops at a glance.
"Is it so anxious to kill you?" Zhou Fei sneered, took out the sword hanging from the saddle, and asked Ling Zhaoyan to be careful, before rushing towards him.
Tang Jun camp.
Niu Ben is furious.
"Who let them pass! Who!"
"I'm sorry, sir, I didn't take Ping Tao well." The soldier who was in charge of stalking Ping Tao knelt in front of Niu Ben and said with a look of guilt.
Niu Ben really wanted to beat this guy violently, but fortunately he tried hard to hold it back.
"Since they are looking for death, let them go." Niu Ben said: "With such a handful of manpower, I want to bully the representative of the academy? That guy's brain is filled with shit!"
Sure enough, just as Niu Ben expected, the cavalry squad led by Ping Tao could not withstand a single blow in front of Zhou Fei.
After searching briefly, Zhou Fei took Ling Zhaoyan away.
After the shadows of these two people disappeared from sight, Niu Ben let out a long sigh of relief.
"Sir, Ping Tao is a close friend of General Guo." The vice general whispered to the side: "Let's just watch him be killed by Zhou Fei. If you let General Guo know, will you provoke him? bother?"
Niu Ben said slowly: "We had a fierce fight with Zhou Fei, but in the end we still failed to beat Zhou Fei and the Demon King’s daughter. Adjutant Ping Tao and nine other cavalry died for the country, but they also succeeded in fighting. Injured the Demon King’s daughter and Zhou Fei, and let them escape to Wei State."
The lieutenant blinked, then clasped his fists and said, "I understand."
Niu Ben looked in the direction of Zhou Fei's disappearance again, and said: "Although I don't know why your Majesty protects Zhou Fei, and I don't understand why the Master has not expelled Zhou Fei from the academy. But we, as soldiers, are ordered by Your Majesty. It is the highest will. No one's meaning can override His Majesty's orders. This is the highest iron law that soldiers must obey. Do you understand?"
The lieutenant said: "The majesty is unclear about one thing. Zhou Fei is able to have today. He relies on the cultivation of the academy. Although there have been some holidays with his majesty before, people with a discerning eye can see that his majesty has been tolerant of Zhou Fei because of General Zhou's affairs. But he still insists on doing such a rebellious thing, which is really chilling."
Niu Ben said: "The hero is sad for the beauty off."
After pondering for a while, the lieutenant agreed: "The sword-fun girl, the daughter of the current demon king, is indeed a rare beauty, and she is not much better than her love-fellow Ge Qingfei."
Niu Ben let out a loud voice: "Ge Qingfei... a stupid woman with only affection in her mind, why compare with Ling Ling?"
"Sir, what did you just say?"
"It's nothing." Niu Ben said: "Send an order to accept troops."
…
In a luxurious tent, Prince Yong Yan is struggling to write.
He waited until the candles were half burned before he stopped.
Put the written letter in a bamboo tube, then seal it with fire lacquer, and deliver it to the messenger who has been waiting in front of him, "Leave it to him, and open it when the time is right, and it will tell him how to act. Remember, this way This opportunity is rare in a lifetime. If you miss it, it’s not as simple as regretting it for a lifetime, but regretting it forever.
"Understood." The soldier placed the bamboo tube close to his body, bowed and bowed out of the tent, and prepared dry horse food for him outside. After drinking a bowl of farewell wine, the soldier drove away on horseback with a whip.
Yong Yan then walked out of the tent.
He came to a nearby hill, and the wind blew his clothes and hunted.
"Unexpectedly, I will solve you in the end," Yong Yan murmured: "Zhou Fei, come soon, I'm already waiting a little anxiously.
