Half a day later, Liu Ming quietly left Bai's home again. As soon as he got out of Lushui City, he immediately summoned a gray cloud and flew away in a certain direction.
As for the divorce between him and the herdsmen, it was naturally handed over to the Bai family, which was part of the deal.
That shepherd Messenger, he is not interested to see, also do not want to waste any more time on it.
After all, he has something else to do.
Seven or eight days later, Liu Ming left Fengtian county and his whereabouts were unknown.
Two months later, on an official road hundreds of miles away from xuanjing, the capital of Da Xuan Kingdom, more than 30 Black Knights were escorting the three carriages.
Each of these Black Knights was dressed in thick armor, armed with a gun and a knife. They were the famous black tiger guards in the state of Da Xuan.
One of them had a light red tassel on his head and a light green bow on his back, but it was the captain who controlled a group of people in the black guard.
According to the regulations, a group of people is only about 30, but the black guards have always been stationed in the fortresses of the important towns of the counties, specially for the imperial court to monitor the movements of the army and the people in various places. Even an ordinary military captain is included in the official position.
Now these black tiger guards and their captains are all out to escort the carriages. It can be seen that the owners of the carriages must be rich or expensive.
"My Lord, it's going to be late. We'd better find a place to settle down. If we hurry up tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, we should be able to get to xuanjing." In front of a strong man like a soldier, suddenly a group of horse head came to the captain, whispered.
"Well, of course I know. But the nearest post station is thirty or forty miles away. You take two people to the front to see if there is a suitable place nearby. " The military captain replied faintly, with a cold black armor on his face. He couldn't see the real face.
"Yes. Heiniu and tiexiaosan, you can go to the front with me. " The strong man immediately agreed and called out to two of the other Jiashi in the back.
Immediately, two of them rushed out, and three of them galloped forward.
"Captain Du Jun, what's the matter?" In the first carriage, a woman's voice full of magnetism suddenly came out.
"Mrs. MI, don't worry. I just let a few players go down to find a place to settle down in front of me." With a black face of the military captain smell speech, a turn of the head back.
"Oh, it's OK. Thanks to Du Junwei's escort all the way, I will reward you a lot when I get to xuanjing. " The woman in the carriage seemed relieved, but she said gratefully.
"Thank you for your kindness, madam. We have just been ordered by Dutong!" The captain bowed slightly, as if unwilling to say more.
After the woman in the carriage chuckled, she also kept silent.
When the motorcade continued to move forward for about a quarter of an hour, the sound of the horse's hooves in front of it started again, but the strong man galloped.
As soon as he got to the front of the team, he slowed down his riding speed.
"Junwei, I found an abandoned temple by the official road five miles away. Heiniu and tie Xiaosan have already cleaned up there." The strong man said respectfully as soon as he came to the captain.
"Good. You can lead the way. Just go to the temple and have a night's rest." Jun Wei smell speech, say without thinking.
So the motorcade immediately speeded up a few points, followed the strong man to leave, and began to trot.
A quarter of an hour later, the motorcade came down to a Huangliang earth temple, which is far away from the official road.
Outside the temple were two black tiger guard horses, but there was a small black carriage. Two blue and white mules were tied to a beer stake outside, and they were quietly gnawing at the nearby weeds.
The fire in the temple flickered, and there was a faint voice.
"What's going on?" Seeing this, Du Jun's voice sank and he asked the strong man next to him.
"Report back to Jun Wei, when I found here, there were two passers-by here. But my subordinates have already questioned me. They are going to xuanjing to join the family. One is a famous scholar who has no power to bind a chicken. The other is just a young girl. " The strong man hurriedly stepped forward to return.
"Well, it's very important. I'll see these two first." Du Jun Wei still seems not to be at ease. After a light word, he jumped off his horse and strode back and forth in the temple.
There are two fires in the earth temple.
Among them, there were two senior and one junior near the big fire, while there was a young man in a blue robe and a thin girl of seven or eight years old near the small fire.
Although the girl was pretty, she was yellow and thin, and half of her body nestled up to the young man. She seemed to be very attached to the young man.
However, the young Confucian looked like he was in his twenties or twenties. His face was very ordinary, but he was holding an unknown thick book and was looking at the fire with relish.
As soon as the two soldiers saw that Du Jun Wei came in, they stood up and hurried to salute.
"No way."
"What's your name? Do you have a guide? Where do you come from and where do you go?" Du Junwei waved his hand, but after looking at the book, he asked coldly.
"Ah, it's the Lord of the army. I'm Qian Ming. I went to xuanjing with my niece. As for the guide, please wait a moment... "As soon as the Confucian scholar heard Du Junwei's question, he seemed to wake up to the world in the book. After a few subconscious answers, he felt a mess on his body, and finally took out a crumpled note and handed it over.
A Jiashi quickly stepped forward, took the note, turned around and handed it to Du Junwei.
Du Junwei just looked at the note for a few eyes, then nodded and handed it back to the first scholar, and asked him to return it to the Confucian scholar. Without saying a word, he turned around and walked out of the temple.
A short time later, there was a cry from the horse outside the temple. A dozen soldiers rushed in and began to clean the temple quickly. Then they picked up many bundles of firewood from nowhere and raised several campfires.
At this time, Xiangfeng outside came into a beautiful woman of about 30 years old, holding a seven or eight year old boy in one hand, followed by a rough footed servant woman and a pretty servant girl of only 15 or 16 years old.
As soon as the beautiful woman and the boy entered the temple, the servant immediately spread out a snow-white animal skin in her arms beside a fire, and put two low wooden stools for the woman and the boy to sit on. The pretty maid took out a censer and put a candle on it to light it.
Immediately a faint smell of sandalwood filled the earth temple.
When the other soldiers and captain Nadu entered the temple, they gave an order. Except for five or six people standing at the gate of the temple, most of them began to take off their armor blades one by one. It seemed that they were going to have a good rest.
As soon as Du Jun took off his helmet and armor, he turned out to be a slender, heroic and beautiful woman.
But there was a reddish scar on the woman's forehead, which damaged her appearance. At the same time, her face was extremely cold, and she did not see a smile at all. As soon as she put a pale green bow and a black arrow in her hand, she sat opposite the beautiful woman and the boy, looking at the fire and silent.
At this time, the other Jiashi began to take out some rice ball like food from their bodies and ate it quietly.
The black tiger guards are well-known as the elite soldiers of Da Xuan kingdom. They are all well-trained.
But on Meiyan's side, the maid had already gone outside the temple. She took out a bamboo basket from the carriage and some exquisite meals for Meiyan's wife and boy to eat.
"Du Jun Wei, I have a lot of food here. I'd better eat some together." The beautiful woman took out a piece of exquisite cake and fed it to the boy. After a few mouthfuls, she glanced at the pretty woman who was still sitting on the opposite side and suddenly said with a smile.
"Thank you for your kindness, madam MI. I've learned some techniques of creating a valley. Even if I don't eat for two or three days, it doesn't matter." Yingting woman looked at the beautiful woman and shook her head indifferently.
"I see. I won't force the captain." Beautiful woman see this, but also not angry, just a smile to continue to feed the boy.
But after a few more bites, the boy shook his head and stopped eating. Instead, he turned his eyes and looked curiously at the girl next to the Confucian student on the other side of the fire.
I saw that the girl's hands do not know when also out of a piece of steaming hot baked yellow steamed bread, a bite, and seriously swallowing.
"Slow down, don't choke." The Confucianist was still looking at the book in his hand, but after seeing the girl's hard swallowing, he said with a smile. With a movement of his arm, he took out a warm leather bag from his arms and handed it to the girl. "
"Thank you, brother Ming"
The girl took the bag very cleverly and poured two mouthfuls into her mouth. Her face was full of smiles.
However, there was a faint fragrance in the leather bag, but few people found it because it was not as strong as sandalwood. But the beautiful woman, who was persuading the boy to eat, could not help but feel a little stunned when she heard the fragrance, and looked at the girl's leather bag with almost doubt.
"This gentleman, excuse me in this leather bag..." after this lady Mi's eyes flickered a few times, she wanted to say something to the young Confucian scholar with a light cough.
But at this time, there was a sharp sound from outside the temple. Then there was a sound of breaking the air. Several black tiger guards standing outside the temple screamed. After a while, they were knocked down by more than a dozen arrows coming from the black night.
At this moment, all the black guards who were resting in the temple were in a great chaos. Those who were wearing armor immediately grabbed the weapons around them and made a defensive gesture.
Some people even did not know where to find out a few thick skin shields, and the figure was in front of Mrs. MI and the boy, protecting them.
