The mad son-in-law of the city, God of War

Chapter 397

After breakfast, Ye Feng and Hong Qingyan got into the domestic off-road vehicle with the license plate number "North 00001", then left Beiyunju and headed northwest.

As soon as the car drove out of the gate, the spies hiding in every corner immediately dispersed like birds and beasts, presumably they were in a hurry to report back.

Of course, the fastest one was of course the General's Mansion. An old man in gray entered the inner courtyard in a flash, and then went to the study room. After a brief report, he pushed the door open and walked in.

At this moment, General Duan Tian was sitting in front of the desk with a big horse and a golden knife, holding a handle of Sun Tzu's Art of War in his hand, but he didn't look at it, looking at his blurred eyes probably because he was thinking about something.

The old man in gray came in and knelt down and said, "My lord, Beiyunju has moved, one car, two people!"

"Two people, which two people?" Duan Tian looked sideways slightly, he had also received news last night, knowing that the northern border was not peaceful, and there was likely to be some action in the future, so he expected that the Northern King Ye Feng would definitely return. , but he didn't expect that the other party would take his time and delay his departure until this morning.

What Duantian didn't expect was that His Royal Highness the King of the North sent several of his legion commanders and escorts back to the North last night, while he went alone this morning. No way.

After all, in the current situation, Ye Feng, the king of the north, just won the Martial Arts Tournament, and it can be said that all eyes are on him. I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at him secretly, and there are many people who want his life, but this guy is lucky, he is alone hit the road.

"Northern King and his concubine, just these two!" The gray-clothed old man said up to this point, and suddenly asked: "My lord, should we continue to follow up?"

"No, withdraw people immediately."

Duantian suddenly waved his hands, and said coldly: "I never thought that this guy surnamed Ye would be so courageous, or maybe the paleness of Gyeonggi last time wasn't enough for him to learn a lesson?"

The gray-clothed old man said: "My lord, what do you mean to say that someone might attack the Northern King next?"

"It's not a possibility, but a certainty!" Duantian snorted with a slight sneer, "As the saying goes, the big tree attracts the wind, this kid is too prominent these days, let alone the one who is wanted by the Nine Ancient Martial Sects who want him to die Not a few."

The gray-clothed old man pondered and said: "Since this is the case, my lord, the Northern King has grown so fast recently, and I believe he will enter into a competitive relationship with you soon, so why don't we take this opportunity..."

At this point in his words, Duantian suddenly shouted: "It's best to put away your petty thinking, let me tell you, it's true that I am in a competitive relationship with the Northern King Ye Feng, but don't forget our identities. With the responsibilities on our shoulders, even if he and I are really at odds in the future, I will not use indiscriminate means!"

Speaking of this, Duan Tian shouted: "Send the order and immediately withdraw the person to me. We don't need to follow up on this matter. As for whether the kid surnamed Ye will die in the future, then we don't care about it, of course. As far as this general is concerned, I hope he dies soon, so that I won't be in the way of my eyes when he returns to the imperial capital!"

The gray-clothed old man didn't quite understand that the conflict between the king of the North and the general was getting more and more intense, and there was an opportunity right now, so why not take the opportunity to make a move? Isn't this a lost opportunity for nothing?

Of course, as the so-called pattern is different, thoughts are naturally different. Great General Duantian certainly wished that the Northern King Ye Feng would die now, but he would never do it himself. Rather than saying that the general is open and upright, it is better to say that he is cherishing Feather, I don't want to leave criticism for myself, so as not to be caught by others when I enter the heavenly pavilion in the future.

But just as the gray-clothed old man left the study, a guard hurried in, cupped his hands and said, "Sign up to the general, there are people outside the door asking to see you."

"Who is it?" Duan Tian asked without raising his head.

"I don't want to disclose, but judging from the clothes and aura, they should look like people from the secular world. There are three people who came here, and the lowest level of cultivation is the fourth level of the divine way!"

"People from the ancient martial arts sect, what are they doing here!" Duantian had to put down the books on the art of war in his hands, then stood up, and after a little thought, said: "Lead them to the reception hall, why don't you invite them to the study room?" bring it on."

There were a lot of people in the reception hall, obviously not a place to talk about important and secret topics, but it was different in the study room, Duantian vaguely sensed that the ancient martial sect came to him this time, probably because of something important.

In fact, there were not only three people, but five people. After all, Duan Tian was a great general, and he was well-informed and read countless people. He immediately knew that the three old men were members of the ancient martial arts sect. , respectively, are the deputy masters or deputy masters of the Confucian sect of the Holy Mansion, the Taoist sect, and the Ming sect.

As a great general, Duantian is also a member of Tianyong Pavilion, but he has never had much contact with people from the ancient martial arts sect, so he couldn't think of what the high-level officials of these three sects came to him for.

The other two were not from Xuanyuan Kingdom, one was a shaman from Xuelang Kingdom, and the other was a warrior from Fusang. The two were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and they were also people with advanced cultivation.

It seems that these two experts from Xuelang Kingdom and Fusang came together with people from the three ancient sects. Duantian really can't figure out when the ancient Wuzong sect, Xuelang Kingdom and people from Fusang will get together up.

"Everyone, please sit down. I don't know what the so-called visits are. I was born in the army, so please get straight to the point!" Duan Tian sat back at the desk again.

The deputy head of the Confucian Sect's Holy Mansion said with a smile, "I've heard about the name of the Great General Duantian for a long time, but seeing him today really deserves his reputation, he's really powerful!"

Seeing that Duantian didn't answer at this point, he immediately understood that the other party was a straight-hearted person, so he immediately said: "That's it, I think the general already knows that Beiyunju has left just now, if so If the predictions are good, they should be planning to return to the northern border."

Duantian laughed and said: "I never thought that you people from the ancient martial arts sect would care so much about worldly affairs. This really surprised this general."

The deputy head of the Confucian school smiled and said: "Generally speaking, we don't get involved in the affairs of the secular world, but we have to ask about the northern king Ye Feng."

Speaking of this, the deputy palace master said in a deep voice: "As the so-called Ming people don't speak dark words, the old man will get straight to the point. Presumably the general also knows that now the so-called Northern King's reputation has risen, and he has even faintly surpassed him." It means that the general is above the general, does the general not have any thoughts in his mind?"

Duan Tian laughed and said: "What can I think, the Northern King Ye Feng's fame is due to his full strength, and he is worthy of it. This general is naturally convinced."

Before he knew the purpose of the other party's visit, Duan Tian just joked blindly, this was a usual way of talking about accidents, in short, it was to make the other party unclear about his true thoughts.

The deputy Palace Master of the Holy Mansion stopped talking, because he really couldn't grasp the other party's mind, so he turned his head to look at other people.

The deputy suzerain of Daozong smiled, and suddenly flipped his hands, and a beautiful and ancient brocade box appeared in the palm of his hand. The box opened with a snap of his fingers, and a small silver sword was revealed inside.

In an instant, the temperature in the whole study room dropped a lot, and even everyone felt a bone-piercing chill, goosebumps even appeared in the pores, Duan Tian's eyes narrowed slightly, and immediately knew that the sword was not ordinary.

The deputy suzerain of Daozong smiled and said: "This is a semi-spiritual weapon, but it is a great treasure. I wonder if the general likes it?"

Duantian was naturally very moved, but his expression remained the same, and he said, "Tell me why you are here."

At this time, the strong shaman from the Snow Wolf Country suddenly said in a very broken Chinese: "I believe the general has received the news now that our Snow Wolf Country is planning to attack the northern border, and there are also Fusang Country and Western countries. This time there will even be people from the Ancient Martial Sect."

Speaking of this, the Fusang strongman said in a deep voice: "We only have one request. Once the northern border cannot resist the attempt to ask the general for help, we only hope that the general can find an excuse and stay put."

"This can't be done!" General Duan Tian flatly refused, but his eyes were still looking at the spirit sword in the brocade box, at this moment everyone could see that he was very jealous.

After thinking about it, Duan Tian said: "I am a general of a country, how can I do such a thing, but I sit in the Central Plains, and I have never made a move easily. After all, as long as I make a move, it is related to the safety of the imperial capital."

Having said that, Duantian seemed to have seen the reminder to himself and didn't quite understand it, so he said a little speechlessly: "If you want me not to rescue, then you have to have a reasonable excuse, otherwise morality and public opinion will make life difficult. Do you understand?"

At this moment, everyone understood, and the strong shaman of the Snow Wolf Kingdom immediately said: "In this case, we will send out another force and pretend to attack the imperial capital of your country. Reason for rescue."

The Fusang strongman also said: "This method is good, but I have been taught."

Duan Tian laughed loudly and said: "I didn't say anything, and I don't know anything, that brocade box is left behind, you guys go, remember to go through the back door!"

Now that the two sides have reached an agreement, they naturally won't stay for long, and the five people got up directly, but what surprised Duan Tian was that there were obviously five people, but when they walked out of the study, they turned into three people. The shaman of the country and the powerhouse of Fusang suddenly disappeared, and even he couldn't detect any movement or breath.

"That's fine. After all, the Xuelang Kingdom and the Fusang experts came to visit me, especially at this juncture. If someone with a heart is watching, it will inevitably cause unnecessary trouble." Duantian thought to himself, but turned and walked straight That brocade box, happily took the spirit sword in the box.
