The Book of Heaven

Chapter 329
In the dense forest, the screams often spread far away, especially when the person who was killed was tortured to the point of collapse, the screams were often heart-piercing.

The long sword was still as bright as new, and no amount of blood was stained on it. Zhao Shuying slowly put Qingfeng into the scabbard, and there was only a faint layer of disappointment on that still beautiful but indifferent face.

After killing the fourth person, it is impossible for Zhao Shuying to guess that she was misled, but she is not too angry in her heart. With rich experience in the world, she knows that it is very difficult to catch up with Li Hong now. Less than ten miles away is another small town, as long as Li Hong sneaks into the city, it is impossible for her to attack Li Hong.

If there were no innate guards around Li Hong, maybe Zhao Shuying would try to assassinate Li Hong, but not now, not killing the innate guards next to Li Hong along the way was the biggest failure in Zhao Shuying's opinion.Because she didn't achieve her goal, Zhao Shuying didn't plan to meet Ma Zheng either. That's just how she is. She obviously found this matter on her own, and it wasn't Ma Zheng's orders. It's always uncomfortable.

"Forget it, I can't do too much about this matter. Li Hong will leave it to Ma Zheng. Sooner or later he will die in Ma Zheng's hands." On the other hand, Zhao Shuying still has an important thing to do right now.

So she could only send Ma Zheng here, even though she knew that Ma Zheng might be staying somewhere on the official road not far away, but the two had no chance to meet.

"I heard that you are engaged. It's not interesting. You didn't notify me. That's all, let's settle the ledger together next time!"

Zhao Shuying's temperament is full of free and easy, even if she is not far from Ma Zheng, if she says she can't see her, she really doesn't see her. After packing up her things, she turns over and rides on her white horse, then turns the horse's head and walks on the completely opposite road to Ma Zheng. Go to Guanzhong and meet someone.

Not to mention that Li Hong returned to Tianshui City with the innate guards, Ma Zheng and others walked in a leisurely manner, but because they were walking the official way, they walked in front of Li Hong instead. Time was standing outside Tianshui City, and Ma Wangfu, who got the news, directly sent people to the gate of the city to greet him.

Ma Daogong greeted him personally, of course not to save face for Ma Zheng. Even if a junior breaks through the innate realm, he is still nothing in the Ma family. Ma Daogong sees the face of Her Royal Highness Liu Xu, the princess, and Lin Gao, a martial god.

"Welcome Your Highness, Mr. Lin."

In fact, Liu Xu can also see that in the eyes of Ma Daogong, Lin Gao, the god of martial arts, is probably more important than her princess. I am afraid that he would be more willing to receive Lin Gao.

On the one hand, Lin Gao is a man, and he has more common topics with Ma Daogong. On the other hand, Ma Daogong is also a martial arts idiot. After finally meeting a martial god, I am afraid that he has already prepared endless topics in his heart .

When warriors meet warriors, they will of course talk about martial arts. Although Liu Xu is also an innate warrior, his path is completely different, so they can't chat with each other at all.

The fact that Liu Xu entered the city was not publicized at all, but Ma Daogong brought so many people from Mawangfu to the gate of the city, but it was well known in the city. would not know.

"Ma Zheng is back? Where is Hong Er, why is there no news yet?"

Li Yan was holding a teacup in his hand, his brows were deeply furrowed, and his two confidantes hunched over to accompany him.

Someone just sent the news that Ma Daogong went to meet Ma Zheng at the gate of the city, and Li Yan knew that there was something tricky in it as soon as he heard it. What is Ma Zheng's identity, and what is Ma Daogong's identity?
"Have a carriage?"

"Well, there is a carriage."

Li Yan stroked the goatee on his chin, rubbed it with his fingers and said: "I remember the last time there was information from Bashu that Princess Qingping went to Zhuge's house. Hmph, those rumors about feelings are true." , the old man is wondering, how could someone from the royal family take a fancy to Ma Zheng, a little guy of unknown origin?"

"Master, what do you mean to say that Ma Daogong went to meet Ma Zheng instead of Ma Zheng?"

Regardless of what the Li family had in mind, at least for the moment they had to maintain their respect for the royal family, especially Liu Xu, who was valued by the emperor, no matter how the Li family regarded themselves, they would not dare to offend.Like Li Hong, who doesn't know the heights of the heavens and the earth, he will wait until Ma Zheng is on the order before making a move.

Now that Ma Zheng has returned safely, Li Hong, who went to Bashu to intercept Ma Zheng, has no news.

"Didn't Yuan'er just come back to rest, go and call Yuan'er for me and let him arrange this matter."

Although Li Yan felt restless, he was the lord of the city and the head of the Li family after all, so he didn't dare to show too flustered when something happened.

Li Yuan is in his early forties this year.Speaking of which, he is Li Hong's younger brother, and there is still a three-year age gap between the two, but because Li Hong has long been looking forward to being pampered at home, it is Li Yuan who has practiced martial arts since childhood. He ate and slept with ordinary sergeants, but he looked older than Li Hong.

"Father, is there something to arrange for the child to do?"

Even though it was a bit of a vicissitudes, the military career not only polished Li Yuan's appearance, but also cultivated Li Yuan's temperament. As a leading general, Li Yuan had thousands of people in the army alone, and gradually formed his own superior temperament , Even when he returned home and changed into casual clothes, Li Yuan, who was used to walking like a dragon and a tiger, still couldn't hide that special aura.

"Your third brother took someone to Bashu to do business, and he hasn't returned yet. I'm so busy here that I can't spare time, so I'll leave this to you. Remember, don't make any mistakes, or your mother won't spare you! "

Li Yuan's success did not make Li Yan feel happy. It is actually very difficult to be a parent, at least not with Li Yuan and his wife.

It is said that parents often love children, but Li Yuan, who is the youngest son, does not feel this way. He is well-educated and has never shown any dissatisfaction with his parents, but he also feels that the better he does and the more successful he is, the harder it is to I saw good looks from my parents.

Li Yuan didn't know that his fault was in the dark. As he grew older, he seldom went home, and stayed in the barracks most of the time. Now the youngest child, Li Yuanji, is also a weak champion. When he came to Tianshui City this time, Li Yuan was He planned to take Yuan Ji away and go to live in the army with him.

"Third brother, he is going to Bashu, is there anything important?"

Judging from Li Bin's expression, the situation is definitely not going to be much better. Li Yuan just wanted to know more information, but when he asked, Li Yuan was furious:
"What are you asking? I just asked you to find someone. Don't you even have the ability to find someone? If you can't even do this, what kind of general do you still have, and what face do you have to be my Li family? Hurry up and don't bother me, three days, if you can't find Hong'er in three days, you don't have to come back!"

"Yes, the child will arrange it now!"

Suppressing his anger, Li Yuan bid farewell to Li Yan, and when he walked out of the main hall, no one could see that he was sullen.
