Jie a husband is too arrogant

Chapter 121 Entering Panlong Ridge
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, the truce came to an end, and the Qiang army assembled its forces and once again attacked Yanyun Pass on a large scale.

The siege battle lasted for two days and one night. Nangong Shu beheaded the number one warrior of the Qiang tribe, killing [-] enemies, and the Qiang tribe was defeated.

Outside Youzhou, the atmosphere of the Chinese New Year came to an abrupt end, the whole army went on alert, checked the military situation, and obeyed Xiao Lie's deployment at any time.

On the fourth day of the lunar new year, Wei Qin came to the barracks suddenly and told Su Jiu that he had news about Zhao Xiong.

After being searched routinely, Wei Qin was led into Xiao Lie's camp by soldiers.

With a heavy face, he said to Su Jiu, "This subordinate contacted one of Zhao Xiong's brothers. According to him, the last time he got news about Zhao Xiong was when Zhao Xiong went to Panlong Ridge, and he never saw Zhao Xiong again. It's been ten days now."

In other words, after Zhao Xiong came down from Mount Hara, he took people to Panlong Ridge, and then disappeared.

"Panlong Ridge?" Xiao Lie's gaze deepened slightly.

Wei Qin opened his mouth to say something, hesitated for a moment and then closed his mouth.

Seeing the expressions on the two of them, Su Jiu knew that there seemed to be something wrong with Panlong Ridge, and asked, "President Wei has something to say, and I can only make a decision when I understand the real situation."

Wei Qin nodded, and said in a deep voice, "To tell you the truth, young lady, Panlong Ridge is located in the northern part of Hara Mountain. It is called Death God Mountain in northern Xinjiang, because that mountain is extremely strange. In the earliest days, there were people grazing sheep on the mountain. Sheep and people They all disappeared on the mountain. Some people went up the mountain to look for them, but they never came down again. Whether it was a passer-by, a woodcutter or a hunter collecting firewood on the mountain, as long as they reached the top of the mountain, they never walked down alive. Therefore, Panlongling, It is also called Death Mountain. People in northern Xinjiang are very taboo about it, and no one dares to approach it."

As for why Zhao Xiong brought people into Panlong Ridge, I don't know.

Su Jiu frowned and said, "You mean, Zhao Xiong is in danger!"

Missing for so many days, and disappearing on the mysterious Panlong Ridge, it is indeed worrying.

"Young Madam, don't worry, my subordinates have already sent people to look for Zhao Xiong and his subordinates. As soon as there is news, I will immediately report back to Young Madam!" Wei Qin said solemnly.

Listening to his address to Su Jiu, Xiao Lie frowned slightly with his long brows, and his breath was cold.

Su Jiudao, "Thank you! You must ensure the safety of your people, and withdraw immediately if there is any danger. If there is any problem, let's find a solution together!"

She went to Zhao Xiong to let him continue to study his hidden weapon first, but now she found Zhao Xiong not only for this, Zhao Xiong led his men up the mountain to rescue Da Pao with her without fear of life and death, this kindness can never be repaid, if he In case of danger, she will definitely go all out!

"Yes, don't worry, Young Madam!" Wei Tan stood up, "Let me take my leave!"

"President Wei, go slowly!"

Su Jiu sent Wei Qin out, and when she came back, she saw Xiao Lie looking down in thought.

"What do you think?" Su Jiu asked.

Xiao Lie took a sip of tea and said in a low voice, "I've also heard the legend about the mystery of Panlong Ridge, and there are even records in some handbooks, but I don't believe those words, there must be something hidden in the mountain."

What will it be?
If it's a wild beast, no matter how powerful it is, it's impossible not to have a single one alive.

That must be something more dangerous than ferocious beasts.

"No matter what it is, if Zhao Xiong can't be found, I will go to Panlong Ridge myself." Su Jiu's eyes were bright.

Whether it's life or death, she always wants to meet people.

Xiao Lie looked up at her with a dull handsome face.

Su Jiu waited for six or seven days, but did not find Wei Qin's person, but Luo Sheng, who sent even worse news.

The Qiang and Naye tribes attacked Yanyun Pass and failed to attack the city three times in a row. The last time, the two armies were defeated. The coach Hage, who was also the leader of the Qiang tribe, was besieged by the Daliang army and fled with 2000 people. Longling, and then Nangong Shu personally led people to chase them down. Now it has been a day and a night on the mountain, and both Hag and Nangong Shu have lost their traces, and their whereabouts are unknown.

When Xiao Lie heard the news, his face was heavy, "Can you send someone up to look for General Nangong?"

Luo Sheng said, "The soldiers who delivered the letter said they would send people up, but none of them came down. Now the foreign enemy has lost its commander and is in chaos, and the remaining 2 people have retreated for thirty miles. Yanyun Pass is now controlled by General Nangong's deputy general Shao Yun sits in town, waiting for His Highness's order!"

Xiao Lie said solemnly, "Send an order to Shao Yun, and immediately send people to chase after the foreign clans have no masters. This time, the main force of the two clans will be wiped out."

"Yes!" Luo Sheng responded and asked, "What about General Nangong?"

"This king leads people to find General Nangong himself!" Xiao Lie pursed her thin lips tightly.

Su Jiu got up abruptly, "I'll go with you!"

"You stay, I will bring Zhao Xiong back to you!" Xiao Lie said.

"No!" Su Jiu looked at him straight, "I'll go with you!"

Luo Sheng lowered his head, glanced at the two of them, and said respectfully, "Your subordinate will send the order immediately!"

"En!" Xiao Lie nodded lightly.

Luo Sheng lifted the tent and went out, Nangong Bi rushed in, his face was pale, and he asked anxiously, "My brother is in danger, isn't he?"

What she heard outside the account was not very clear, but it must have something to do with her brother.

"Nangong, don't worry, just lost the general's whereabouts, the general may not be in danger." Su Jiu said.

"Then why has there been no news for so long?" Nangong Bi shook her head in fear, and looked at Xiao Lie, "Your Highness, are you going to find brother? Take me with you!"

"No, even if there is no other danger on Panlong Ridge, there are Hag's remnants, you can't go!" Xiao Lie's handsome face was cold and serious.

"No, I have to go! I'm not a weak young lady. I know martial arts, I can protect myself, and I won't drag anyone down. Besides, my brother and I are brothers and sisters. We have telepathy between us. I will be faster than you. Find my brother!"

Nangong Bi said eagerly, looking at the two with earnest eyes, "Let me go!"

Although she is often self-willed and ignorant, she knows the importance of major events.

She believed that she would be able to find her brother!

Su Jiu said to Xiao Lie, "Let Nangong go with me, I will protect her!"

Xiao Lie pondered for a moment, nodded and said, "Okay, but when we arrive at Panlong Ridge, no one is allowed to act alone, everything is under my arrangement!"

"Yes!"

Su Jiu and Nangong Bi responded together.

"One more thing." Su Jiu raised her eyebrows to look at Xiao Lie, and said in a deep voice, "We have to bring another person, Luo Sheng!"

Now that the two main generals have disappeared on Panlong Ridge, they will also leave the camp, which is equivalent to handing over Youzhou and their retreat to Luo Sheng's hands. She is really worried about this man, so she simply takes him with her.

Xiao Lie nodded knowingly, and immediately called his own soldiers to come in, and ordered, "Immediately order a thousand elite soldiers, and follow me to Panlong Ridge! In addition, send someone to send an order to General Luo, and he will go with the army."

Panlong Ridge was some distance away from Daying, and it would take two or three days to get there by traveling day and night. Nangong Shu's life and death were unknown, and they had no time to wait any longer.

Su Jiu and Nangong Bi also went to prepare for their departure.

An hour later, the ordering of the thousand cavalry was completed, and Xiao Lie, as the general, set off from the camp with Hu Dapao, Su Jiusi and Nangong Bi.

As soon as he got out of the big camp, he saw Luo Sheng coming on horseback. When he got there, he got off his horse and knelt down on one knee in front of Xiao Lie's horse, "The last general will see Your Highness!"

Xiao Lie looked at him lightly with long, bottomless eyes, "I led troops to find General Nangong, but my people are not from Youzhou after all. General Luo is more familiar with Mount Hara, so please trouble Luo The general will go with you!"

Luo Sheng lowered his head, his eyes flickered, his brows were furrowed in a barely noticeable way, but his voice was sonorous and forceful, "Yes! The last general will take His Highness to find the great general!"

"Let's go then!"

Wearing a black military robe, Xiao Lie had a cold demeanor, said a word, and was the first to gallop out.

A thousand soldiers and horses followed behind him, the horseshoes roared, the turf splashed, and they roared away.

Two days after Wei Tan got the news that Su Jiu had gone to Panlongling, a letter came from Shengjing asking for news about Su Jiu.

Wei Qin hesitated for a long time, but finally concealed the fact that Su Jiu had gone to Panlong Ridge.

Panlongling is an untouchable existence in northern Xinjiang. No one can guarantee whether Su Jiu will come back here. It will take seven or eight days for the letter to be sent to Shengjing. During this time, there may be news from Su Jiu.

So Wei Qin concealed Su Jiu's going to Panlong Ridge, and did not reply for the time being.

When the subordinates heard that Wei Qin was going to Panlongling, their faces changed, and they said in unison, "President, please think twice!"

Legends about Panlong Ridge
For a long time, they are all from Youzhou. They grew up listening to the sound, and they have a deep-rooted fear of Panlongling. Some of them even had relatives who "disappeared" on that terrifying mountain.

Sometimes death is not terrible, but the panic in my heart is what really scares people.

Wei Tan had a firm face, "We are members of the Ji Mansion, and we have the responsibility to protect the master, and we cannot back down just because of danger! Those who don't want to go can stay, I will never force it!"

Seeing that Wei Tan had made up his mind, several people looked at each other and expressed their opinions in unison, "I will follow the general guard to the death and protect the young lady!"

"Well, I'll give each of you an hour to prepare, and then go!"

"Yes!"

……

On the morning of the third day after Su Jiu and the others left the camp, they arrived at the foot of Panlong Ridge.

Panlongling is steep, like a coiled dragon lying on the land of northern Xinjiang. Looking up, the top of the mountain is shrouded in clouds and mist, towering into the clouds, and its height is unfathomable.

The whole mountain gives people the impression that it is tall and majestic, with a majestic momentum, faintly carrying the inviolable kingly momentum.

Panlong Ridge is also the largest and tallest mountain in the entire Hara Mountains. It stretches for hundreds of miles and has many peaks. It is extremely difficult to find a few people, or even thousands of people.

In other places, you can ask the locals to lead the way into the mountain, but the mystery and horror of Panlong Ridge make people change their colors. No matter how much money is paid, no one dares to enter the mountain.

Xiao Lie took out a map of northern Xinjiang, put it on the ground and analyzed, "The top of Panlong Ridge and the north are covered by heavy snow all year round, and it is impossible for anyone to come in and out, so our search target is only in this area."

His handsome fingers flicked across the south of the mountain and the west of the mountain.

"Let's enter the mountain here to see if we can find traces of the army entering the mountain. If we can find the best, then go all the way up. Panlong Ridge has no one entering the mountain all year round. If there is an army going up, it will definitely leave clues."

Hu Dapao nodded, "This subordinate agrees with His Highness's point of view!"

Su Jiu and the others also nodded.

Xiao Lie looked up at Luo Sheng, "General Luo is from Northern Xinjiang, what do you think?"

"Ah?" Luo Sheng was startled, and quickly shook his head, "This subordinate obeys His Highness's orders. Although this subordinate is from Northern Xinjiang, because Panlong Ridge is rarely visited by people, outsiders know very little about it."

"In that case, the army should rest at the same place for half an hour, each of them will bring enough rations, and start to enter the mountain!" Xiao Lie ordered, "After entering the mountain, everyone should follow the team closely. No one is allowed to act alone without instructions. If there is any abnormality, report it immediately!"

"Yes!" Thousands of people responded in unison, deafening.

Xiao Lie walked up to Su Jiu, and said softly, "When you go down the mountain, follow me! Remember, my life is on you, no matter what happens, protect yourself, understand?"

Su Jiu's heart trembled, she looked up at the man's deep eyes, and nodded slightly.

Xiao Lie held the glass bracelet on Su Jiu's wrist, and said in a voice that only two people could hear, "If we are forced to separate, ringing the bell once means you are safe, shaking the bell twice means you are in danger, remember ?"

"Okay!" Su Jiu solemnly nodded.

The man's handsome long fingers stroked her cheek lightly, "Su Jiu, if those legends are true, we will never go down the mountain again, don't be afraid, no matter where you are, I will accompany you!"

Bi Luo Huang Quan, he will not let go of her hand!
Su Jiuqing's eyes were bright, she suddenly raised her lips and smiled, and said firmly, "We will go down the mountain safely!"

Xiao Lie lightly pursed his lips, tried his best to control the urge to hold her in his arms, nodded with a smile,
"Yes, we will come back safely! Together!"

A Shu and Chang Huan went to explore the way up the mountain, but they didn't find any traces of a large group of soldiers riding up the mountain.

Looking at the majestic mountain peak, Ah Shu said, "You think this mountain is really so evil? What's in it?"

Chang Huan laughed, "Whatever it is, even if there is a ghost, so many of us will scare it to death again!"

Ah Shu frowned, and said, "Huan'er, if there is anything wrong with me, I will leave it to you, and Zhao Shan, let the brothers take care of me!"

Chang Huan glanced at him sideways, "Don't talk nonsense! Your own people, you take care of yourself, we and the big boss will be fine!"

Ah Shu grinned, "Didn't I say what if, don't worry, we have rough skin and thick flesh, even ferocious beasts can't bite us."

Chang Huan turned to look at Su Jiu, his handsome face was tough, and he said in a low voice,

"We want to protect the boss, so no one can die!"

Nangong Bi looked up at the top of the mountain, her eyes were full of worry, she folded her hands together and prayed, bless her brother, he must be waiting for her safe and sound!
God bless!

Hu Dapao came over and handed her a piece of cake, "You didn't eat anything last night, eat some, going up the mountain is hard work, take care of yourself before you can find the general!"

"Thank you!"

Nangong Bi hadn't had a good rest for several days, her face was haggard, her voice was hoarse, she took the cake, tore a piece and stuffed it into her mouth, her chest seemed to be blocked by a big stone, and she couldn't swallow it no matter what.

"Don't be like this, General Jiren has his own destiny, God will bless him!" Hu Dapao said softly.

He doesn't know how to comfort others, he only feels distressed when he sees the girl, he can't help but lower his voice, and his eyes become gentle.

Nangong Bi's eyes were red, and she looked at him earnestly, "Do you think something will happen to my brother?"

"No!" Hu Dapao said with certainty, "We will definitely find the general, trust me!"

Nangong Bi pressed her forehead against his chest, and her nose was sore. Many days of worry and fear made her extremely weak, and she couldn't help but want to find someone to rely on.

My brother has been up the mountain for five or six days. If nothing happened, why hasn't he come down? Why is there no trace?

If something happened to her brother, how would she explain to her parents?
She didn't dare to think too much, and bit the dry biscuit in her hand vigorously.

Hu Dapao felt pain in his heart, hesitated for a moment, raised his hand and gently hugged the girl's shoulder, and said anxiously, "We are all here, and the general will be found soon, you believe me!"

Nangong Bi's mouth was full of cakes, and she nodded heavily.

Yes, she will definitely find her brother!
An hour later, everyone got ready and headed towards Panlong Ridge without hesitation.

As soon as we entered the mountain, it was clearly noon, but the sun suddenly disappeared, the clouds were thick, and the light suddenly dimmed.

Everyone couldn't help but hugged their arms tightly, the cold seemed to penetrate into the bones of people, trembling.

Few people come to Panlong Ridge, the forest is densely covered, the grass is everywhere, and the intertwined branches above the head are covered, and it seems to have entered another desolate world in an instant.

Because it is winter, there are no animals on the mountain, except for the sound of their footsteps, the surrounding is dead and cold.

The more we went up, the steeper the mountain road was, and the dense thorns covered it, making it almost impossible to walk, so we had to ask soldiers to open the way ahead, so we walked more slowly.

Xiao Lie and Su Jiu walked in front, followed by Hu Dapao, Ashu and Changhuan protecting Nangong Bi, and behind Luo Sheng leading a thousand elite soldiers.

The sky was getting darker and darker, the sun could not be seen, and even the direction could not be discerned. Everyone guessed that it might be getting dark.

Su Jiu ordered to go down and ask the people behind to follow closely, and report immediately if there is any situation.

After walking for nearly an hour, the surrounding mountains are rugged, and the way up the mountain can no longer be seen down, and the top of the mountain is still not visible due to clouds and mist.

Suddenly, the soldiers who explored the road ahead came to report and found traces of the army going up the mountain.

Everyone was immediately refreshed, and hurriedly searched for the direction they found.

Sure enough, the dead grass on the mountain was trampled off, and a road was faintly trampled to the deep mountain. It seemed that a large number of soldiers passed by.

Nangong Bi ran forward excitedly and shouted loudly,

"elder brother!"

"elder brother!"

However, there are only echoes colliding among the rocks in the mountains, and no one can hear a response.

Su Jiu grabbed Nangong Bi who was about to run forward, "Don't act privately, follow the team. The general must have taken people into the mountains, we will follow the path they walked, and we will definitely find the general!"

Nangong Bi nodded, and held Su Jiu's hand, "Yes, I listen to you, let's go quickly!"

After finding the trace, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and continued to walk up the place where the soldiers had passed by before.

Maybe Daliang Jun will be found soon.

As for why Ha Ge and Nan Gongshu, the leaders of the Qiang tribe, did not come out after entering the mountain, there are too many possibilities.

Maybe Nangong Shu found Hage, and the two sides are fighting in a stalemate, maybe both sides are in danger and trapped somewhere, of course, there is the worst possibility.

As the sky gradually darkened and the road could no longer be seen, Xiao Lie ordered the team to set up a tent at the same place to rest for one night, and then set off at dawn tomorrow.

Arrange the guards around, and the others gather firewood nearby to light the fire, take off the dry food they are carrying, roast it on the fire and eat it.

1000 people spread out on the mountain, and the fire was burning, which gave people a great sense of security. They were exhausted and fell asleep on the hay after eating.

Most of these elite soldiers came from Shengjing, and they didn't have the fear of the locals towards Panlong Ridge, so apart from being tired, they didn't have much other feelings. They even felt that the legend about Panlong Ridge was alarmist, joking. After a while, he fell asleep, and soon there were cries from all around.

Beside the bonfire, Xiao Lie and Su Jiu were sitting around the fire. Su Jiu suggested that tomorrow she would take A Shu and Chang Huan into the mountain first. The three of them are good at lightness skills, and they must be faster than the army. Maybe they will find Nangong first Shu's whereabouts.

"No!" Xiao Lie was the first to deny, "Don't think that we are not in danger today and take it lightly. There have been legends about Panlong Ridge for a long time, and there are not one or two people who disappeared here. There must be something strange about this mountain. , no one can act alone, in case something happens, it will be too late for us to save!"

"Your Highness is right!" Hu Dapao said, "Being together is safer!"

Seeing that both of them disagreed, Su Jiu had no choice but to obey the majority.

Nangong Bi hardly had a solid sleep in the past few days, but today she finally got some clues from Nangong Shu, she relaxed a little, and was sleepy, so she leaned against the tree and closed her eyes.

Hu Dapao came over, untied his cloak and wrapped it around the girl, when he was about to stand up, the girl suddenly grabbed him by the corner of the cloak.

"Sit here!" Nangong Bi whispered.

"Oh!" Hu Dapao replied blankly, and sat down against the tree some distance away from the girl.

Nangong Bi squinted at him, leaned over to touch the man, wrapped the cloak around the two of them, and said in a low voice, "It's still warm like this!"

"Yes!" Hu Dapao nodded quickly, adjusted his posture, and blocked the wind for her.

Nangong Bi watched the man's movements, her heart warmed slightly, she leaned her head on his shoulder, and closed her eyes.

Su Jiu and Ashu Changhuan snuggled together for a while, and when they woke up, it was already late at night, and everyone had already fallen asleep, only the night watchmen were still whispering around the fire.

She was covered with a cloak, Xiao Lie was sitting there in front of the bonfire, the fire was flickering, half of his handsome face was in the light, cold and noble, half in the shadows, cold and gloomy, with a pair of calm long hair His eyes were half down, not knowing what he was thinking about.

Su Jiu got up and walked over, and sat down beside him. The man immediately turned his head and smiled faintly, "Why are you awake?"

"What about you, why aren't you asleep?" Su Jiu added a few sticks of firewood to the fire, looked back and smiled lightly, her eyes flickering, she was so beautiful.

Xiao Lie's eyes deepened, and he said with a faint smile, "I can't sleep, so I just get up and watch the fire."

"Are you worried about General Nangong?" Su Jiu asked.

Xiao Lie looked up at the dark mountain, and said in a low voice, "I know Nangongshu's character. It has been so many days. If he is safe and sound, he will definitely send troops down the mountain to report."

After all, he is the leader of the first army, and he understands how much the loss of the leader for many days will affect the entire Liang army.

Therefore, the only possibility is that he can't go down the mountain, and even his soldiers can't go down the mountain.

What kind of situation would make it impossible for him to get out?
It can't be Qiang soldiers, Nan Gongshu has always been calm, since he dared to lead troops to chase him down, he must be [-]% sure.

what would that beWhat can trap Nangongshu, who is a master of martial arts, and trap thousands of soldiers?
"And did you find out?" Xiao Lie continued, "We came all the way, but we didn't find any Qiang deserters."

Of course, Panlong Ridge is so big, even if they escaped, they might have taken other ways, but thousands of people are on the mountain, but there is no trace at all, it is really strange!
Su Jiu frowned, "Is there really something terrifying on this mountain?"

Xiao Lie turned his eyes to look over, and smiled softly, "No matter what it is, we'll find out after we go and see it!"

The man's deep eyes are cold and calm, shining with sharp light, without any hesitation, some of them are a king's control over the unknown, and they are the arrogance of looking down on the world.

Su Jiu raised her eyebrows and smiled, "Yes, there is nothing we can fear!"

Xiao Lie put his palm on the back of her hand, his gaze became deep, "I have nothing to fear except you!"

Su Jiu stared at him blankly, lowered her eyes, slowly clenched her palms and drew them out.

Xiao Lie didn't show any disappointment on his face, he just put down his hands and said with a smile, "Maybe tomorrow will be the clue, it's useless to think about it, let's go to sleep. For us now, the most important thing is to preserve our energy!"

"it is good!"

The night gradually deepened, and even the night watchmen stopped talking, and the mountain fog gradually thickened, slowly eroding towards the shining firelight.

There is no moonlight, and there are no stars to be seen. The surroundings are as dark as ink, and you can't see your fingers, and there are shadows.

In the darkness, a figure hid from the night watchmen and walked down the road they went up the mountain.

The figure is half bowed, hiding behind the tree, looking around, as if to be as cautious as other women's wives.

Hiding behind the withered grass, dodged a group of patrolling soldiers, and slowly moved away from the group. Just as he was about to be overjoyed, suddenly the sound of the wind passed over his head, and the girl's straight and slender figure stood in front of him, and said with a smile, "General Luo, Mr. Where are you going in the middle of the night?"

Luo Sheng was startled, and fell to the ground with a plop. Under the dark night, his thin face was pale, and he looked at Su Jiu in fear.

"I, I'll go, pee!"

Luo Sheng said tremblingly.

"Oh, so I went to pee. Seeing General Luo's appearance, I thought the general was going to run off down the mountain!" Su Jiu sneered.

"No, no!" Luo Sheng quickly shook his head in denial, and said with a smirk, "It's so dark, how do I go down the mountain?"

"Yeah, it's so dark, if you fall down the cliff along the way, you will die without a place to die!" Su Jiu smiled maliciously, "General Luo must be afraid of urinating alone, why don't I go with the general?" !"

"Ah?" Luo Sheng's eyes widened in shock.

Ever since this woman killed that [-] soldiers, he didn't feel like she was a woman!

really!

How could a woman be so brazen as to accompany a man to pee.

Luo Sheng didn't dare to let her accompany him, and neither would he because of her close relationship with Xiao Lie.

"I-I'm done peeing!" Luo Sheng laughed in embarrassment, "I'm done peeing!"

"Really?" Su Jiu raised her eyebrows.

"Really!" Luo Sheng stood up and hurriedly walked into the line, "Don't dare to trouble the girl, go to bed!"

Seeing the man's staggering back, Su Jiu sneered and followed.

As soon as she sat down, Xiao Lie immediately held her hand.

Su Jiu knew that he was awake too, so she must have known about Luo Sheng's escape.

"Tomorrow, I will send someone to watch him!" The man said in a low voice with his long eyes half closed.

Su Jiu nodded slightly and closed her eyes.

When I opened my eyes again, it was already dawn, and some soldiers had already got up and were cooking.

All night long!
The dense mountain fog filled the air, and the visibility was extremely low. Xiao Lie ordered to wait for the fog to clear before leaving.

After the meal, the wind blew up on the mountain, and the thick fog gradually dispersed. Everyone packed their luggage and continued to walk up the mountain.

After a night of rest, the soldiers regained their spirits. Yesterday they found Nan Gongshu's whereabouts. In addition, they did not encounter any danger at night. Everyone was obviously much more relaxed than when they entered the mountain yesterday. There were even chatter and laughter in the team.

Su Jiu knew that this mountain was not that simple, so she kept ordering the people behind to follow closely.

Nangong Bi was still very anxious. She couldn't feel at ease even if she couldn't see her brother for a day.

After the team walked for two hours, the dark clouds in the sky dispersed, and some sunlight was faintly seen falling through the scattered branches, and everyone's hearts became brighter.

"What's that?" Ah Shu suddenly yelled, ran to the grass, picked up a pair of military boots and came back after a while.

Everyone looked at the military boots for a moment, they were the military boots of Daliang Army.

But for no reason, how could someone leave the boots here?

The road up the mountain is so difficult, without boots it is impossible to walk an inch, even if Nan Gongshu wanted to leave a clue, it is impossible to leave a military boot.

Unless, the owner of this military boot suffered an accident!

Su Jiu and Xiao Lie quickly walked to the place where they found the boots. There was no blood, no footprints of struggling, and no signs of fighting around.

Only one boot.

Su Jiu and Xiao Lie looked at each other, puzzled.

The only thing to be happy about is that Nan Gongshu did bring people through here.

After throwing away the strange military boot, the team moved on.

After walking for nearly a stick of incense, a soldier from behind suddenly ran forward.

Xiao Lie and Su Jiu stopped immediately, knowing that something was wrong!
Sure enough, the soldier stepped forward anxiously and said, "Your Highness, a person is missing!"

"How did you disappear?" Xiao Lie asked immediately.

The person who came to report was Yi Mochang, who replied, "The missing person is called Xu Yuan. He walked behind the line and said that he had been pricked by thorns, so he stopped to clean his boots, and waited for the people around him to notice that he hadn't followed, so he stopped to clean his boots. I found that there was no figure behind him, he disappeared!"

Su Jiu slowly clenched her palms.

Xiao Lie said, "The team rests at the same place for the time being, ten people in a group, send ten groups of people to disperse to find, and report to the king after a stick of incense!"

"Yes!" The chief Mo took the order and left.

Hearing that someone was missing, the faces of Hu Dapao and the others also became serious. How could someone disappear for no reason?
They didn't hear the call for help. Could a living person disappear out of thin air?
"Your Highness, the last general will also bring someone to look for it!" Hu Dapao stepped forward to ask for orders!

Su Jiu looked at Xiao Lie, saw him nodding, and immediately said, "Da Pao, take A Shu and Chang Huan to find someone, don't go too far, don't disperse, come back immediately if you can't find them!"

"Yes!" Hu Dapao nodded, and ran back with A Shu and Chang Huan.

Nangong Bi looked at Hu Dapao's figure, frowned, and squeezed Su Jiu's hand, "Su Jiu, what are you talking about?"

Su Jiu shook her head, she didn't understand, could someone be as scared as Luo Sheng, so they escaped down the mountain with an excuse?

Everyone rested and waited on the spot. After burning incense, Hu Dapao came back with A Shu and Chang Huan, his brows furrowed tightly, and he slowly shook his head at Su Jiu.

could not find it!

They searched farther than those soldiers, and even jumped on the trees and looked around. Except for stones and dry grass, there was no one.

Soon, Mo Chang, who sent someone to look for him, stepped forward quickly, "Go back to Your Highness, no one was found!"

100 people were sent out, and a group of ten people scattered to search in various directions, but there was nothing.

The surroundings fell silent, and everyone's faces were heavy.

A living person, is it just gone?
It is so strange!

Even if he sneaked down the mountain, it was impossible for him to disappear so quickly.

Xiao Lie pondered for a moment, then said, "Wait for another incense stick, if he doesn't come back, let's move on!"

"Yes!"

The team lost the relaxation it had just had, and everyone looked gloomy, looking around. At this moment, Fang felt an unknown danger approaching them.

What would make a person disappear without even struggling?
No one knew, and no one had ever encountered such a thing.

Reminiscent of the legend of Panlong Ridge, everyone shuddered. Looking at the surrounding deep forests and strange rocks, they felt a gust of cold wind blowing, and they felt goosebumps all over their bodies.

Even if there are tens of thousands of enemies standing in front of them, it will not make them feel this way.

Nangong Bi held Su Jiu's clothes in fear, her eyes were red, "Su Jiu, do you think my brother and others will disappear like this?"

Su Jiu pressed her shoulder, "No, he has encountered so many dangers, and his reaction is beyond ordinary people, trust your brother!"

Nangong Bi swallowed nervously and nodded slightly.

The time for a stick of incense passed quickly, and the man did not come back!

Luo Sheng panicked, "Your Highness, Panlong Ridge is a forbidden area, we have violated the gods, this is a warning to us, we can't go any further!"

As soon as his voice came out, everyone was shocked.

Xiao Lie looked at Luo Sheng coldly, "What kind of god is it? It's pure nonsense! Someone wanted to escape down the mountain and was arrested last night. Didn't General Luo know about it?"

Luo Sheng's face turned pale immediately, not daring to look at Xiao Lie's sharp eyes, he hurriedly shrunk his shoulders and lowered his head.

The soldiers behind looked at Luo Sheng with a cold face, it turned out that this person wanted to run away a long time ago!
"It's not surprising, that person must have been unwilling to go up the mountain, and fled without permission. No need to wait any longer, keep going, General Nangong is still waiting for us, you are all soldiers of General Nangong, are you going to run away?"

Xiao Lie was imposing, with a calm voice, and a few words stabilized the restless team.

He was originally a prince, with a noble bloodline, no god would dare to offend him.

Everyone immediately knelt down on one knee and said in unison, "I swear to follow His Highness to the death, and I will never turn back until I find the general!"

"If there is any more nonsense, those who have a cholera military spirit will be punished as a rebel!" Xiao Lie's voice was cold.

"Yes!" The army clanged in response.

Xiao Lie glanced at Luo Sheng, turned around and strode forward,
"Continue to enter the mountain!"

After hearing Xiao Lie's words, everyone thought that the person who disappeared had fled down the mountain privately, and with Xiao Lie's calm expression, he felt a little at ease.

But, this time, there was no more talking and laughing in the team.

Luo Sheng followed behind Ah Shu and the others, with his head lowered, his thin eyes flickering, and his complexion gloomy.
