On the official road from Jiangzhou to Chang'an, the imperial guards and the personal guards of the six imperial generals, nearly a thousand people escorted several large carriages and advanced quickly.

The leader rode several times in parallel, Xue Rengui was in the middle, Luo Tong, Qin Huaiyu and others were on both sides, talking and laughing.

In one of the carriages behind, Zhaoyang sat in it holding the sleepy Xue Chuyu.

In the driver's seat, Cheng Yaojin, who was sitting side by side with the driver, looked back at Xue Chuyu. The more he looked, the more satisfied he was, and his smile became stronger. Mr. Cheng never expected that this trip to Jiangzhou would actually discover a handsome man from the future of the Tang Dynasty. This little guy is young and very smart. When talking about the strategy, he is just a little pervert!

"Cough! Mr. Cheng, please stop looking at it, your saliva is almost flowing out," Zhaoyang coughed helplessly.

Cheng Yaojin, who reacted after hearing this, subconsciously reached out and touched the corner of his mouth. Then, his old face turned slightly red and glared at Zhaoyang angrily.

At this time, Xue Chuyu, who had yawned slightly, opened her big shiny eyes and couldn't help but say, "Where have you been?"

"Haha, little lazy pig, you're almost here to Tongguan. Have you woken up?" Cheng Yaojin smiled.

Xue Chuyu, who curled her lips when she heard this, then her face changed slightly and said hurriedly: "No! There should be a gourd canyon in front of her, right? How far is it from there?"

"It's not a few miles!" Cheng Yaojin, who was talking casually, saw Xue Chuyu's solemn face, raised his eyebrows and asked with a smile: "Why, my little marshal, do you think someone will set up an ambush in the Gourd Canyon in front?"

Xue Chuyu glared at Cheng Yaojin with a frown, and then turned to the outside and shouted: "Senior Brother!"

"Stop shouting! That boy Qingzhu doesn't know where he went." Cheng Yaojin said.

Hearing Cheng Yaojin's words, Xue Chuyu smiled slightly relieved, leaned against Zhaoyang's arms and squinted his eyes to continue sleeping.

Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but smiled unexpectedly: "Why? Chu Yu, aren't you worried?"

"There will be no problem with the senior brother exploring the way forward," Xue Chuyu waved his hand casually.

Cheng Yaojin frowned when he heard this and said, "Boy, how do you know that Qingzhu has gone to explore the way forward?"

"Silly! Do you still have to think about this?" Xue Chuyu, who said with a lip, closed her eyes and said, "Okay, wait until the senior brother comes back to wake me up!"

Seeing this, Cheng Yaojin couldn't help but shake his head and smile: "This kid!"

At this time, in the Hulu Canyon several miles ago, there was a group of people hiding in the dense forests on both sides of the canyon.

"Sir. Xue Rengui and the others are about to arrive, and they are only a few miles away," a short man in black clothes with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks ran over to report the report.

"Very good!" A middle-aged man with an ordinary face, a kind-hearted but sharp eyes couldn't help but lit up when he heard this.

On the side, a thin man in black clothes, wearing a black leather mask, revealing a slightly pale cheek and narrow and long, narrow eyes. The corner of his mouth, which was shining with a faint light in his eyes, curled up a cold curve.

"Master You! There are many experts among those who are in the group. It depends on you this time," said the couven and middle-aged man with a slightly respectful and polite voice.

The thin man You, who nodded slightly, made a cold voice from his mouth with a slightly moved corner of his mouth: "Don't worry! A group of insignificant ordinary people. Although many of them have strong qi and blood and strong force, they can only wait for slaughter when facing my ghost mist."

"Ghost mist? It sounds very powerful," a voice suddenly rang out.

"That's. My You," said the thin man, Lord You, subconsciously and confidently, but soon reacted. He realized that the voice was wrong, and almost at the same time, his expression changed and he suddenly turned around and looked at it.

I saw a man wearing a dark blue robe carrying a quaint sword on the trunk of a thick tree not far away, looking at them with calm eyes. It was Qingzhu.

"Take it and kill him!" Duanhou middle-aged man had a sharp look at this time and shouted in a ferocious look.

"Swish" "Swish" In the low sound of breaking through the air, faint lights flashed, and all the obviously poisonous crossbow arrows shot towards Qingzhu, and the crossbow arrows almost blocked his entire retreat.

The green bamboo with lightly raised mouth seemed to slowly reach out and draw the sword from behind. Then, there were misty sword shadows flashing. Accompanied by the dense and crisp sound of impact, crossbow arrows all fell from the air, as if it was raining in the jungle below.

"What?" Dunhou middle-aged man's face changed when he saw this, and he stared at Qingzhu in horror.

Lord You, a thin man who also had a long-lasting look, gritted his teeth and reached out to take out a flute that was flashing like cold jade from his arms, and blew in from his arms. He blew the air in from one end, and suddenly, a hazy dark blue smoke appeared on the other end, covering the green bamboo.

"Hmph, I didn't hide! I was caught in the ghost mist and could only let me slaughter!" Seeing that Qingzhu, who had not dodged, was shrouded in the hazy blue smoke, the thin man, Lord You, suddenly felt a little relieved and sneered confidently.

After a while, in the dark blue smoke that had only disappeared, a cold and indifferent voice sounded: "Be patient with your slaughter? You seem to be very confident in this ghost mist!"

"What?" Lord You, a thin man with incredible look in his eyes, saw a sharp sword light appearing in front of him. He couldn't help but hurriedly retreat, and took out a black dagger like a conditioned reflex to block it.

A "keng" sounded the sound of gold and iron fighting, and flew back in a mess. Lord You, the thin man with a cracked tiger's mouth, looked at Qingzhu in horror and fear, and then turned around without hesitation and rushed into the dense jungle, a thick fog spread out.

He flashed and chased the green bamboo, and saw the thick fog dissipated, but there was no trace of the thin man, Lord You, in the mountains ahead.

"Hmph!" Qingzhu, who frowned and hummed lightly, waved his hand and used the sword in his hand to push away several crossbow arrows, then flew up, waved the long sword in his hand, and drilled into the jungle with the faint misty sword lights. A series of suppressed screams sounded, and a faint bloody aura spread.

"Who are you?" Qingzhu turned around and came to the honest middle-aged man and asked.

Looking at Qingzhu, the kind middle-aged man suddenly showed an inexplicable smile on his face, black blood spilled out of the corners of his mouth, and his eyes were dim and he fell back weakly.

Seeing this, Qingzhu frowned, listening to the screams that quickly disappeared around him, he couldn't help but turn his head and look into the jungle. Several people in black were flashing to the men in black hidden in the jungle, and found that they all had black blood overflowing from their mouths. All of them had no breath.

"Death Soldier?" Qing Zhu shook her head helplessly, then flashed and disappeared into the jungle.

When Qingzhu left, a ball of black gas appeared from the place where the thin man You disappeared before, spreading towards the surroundings, and soon became more intense and gathered into a ball again. The illusory and hideous images were vaguely visible, like hideous ghost faces, and then disappeared out of thin air.

Almost at the same time, the void was slightly twisted, and Chen Hua, who was wearing a white robe, stepped out, grabbed a trace of black gas into his hand and sniffed it lightly, then frowned and looked at the place where the black gas disappeared.

"Demon, it's true that he is omnipresent!" Chen Hua shook his head and sighed softly. Then he stepped into the twisted void and disappeared.

Chen Hua, who appeared again, came to a desolate valley on the northwest border of the Tang Dynasty.

In the cave halfway up the valley, a faint smell of medicine came from the cave on the stone simple stove, a black iron pot was placed, with hot porridge burning.

"Cough" a slightly hoarse cough sounded. A pair of coarse cloth lying on the stone bed not far away was dirty, with blood stains on the torn clothes. The pale young man woke up slowly, subconsciously sat up, touching the wound on his body, and suddenly sweated down his forehead.

"Young man, you still have injuries on your body, be careful!" A gentle and pleasant voice sounded. The young man looked up and saw a beautiful beauty who was wearing a white silk skirt, floating like a fairy, moving over and couldn't help but be stunned.

Seeing the young man in a daze, Hu Ling'er, dressed in white, couldn't help but smile slightly, then walked to the stove, personally served a bowl of porridge, and handed it to the young man who reacted: "Come on, drink some porridge! Be careful of being hot!"

"Thank you for saving your life, Sister Fairy!" The young man who carefully reached out to take it, said in surprise and excitement.

Seeing the young man eating the somewhat hot porridge with a smile, Hu Ling'er couldn't help but smile and said, "Don't worry, there's more! This is the medicinal porridge, the whole pot is prepared for you."

"By the way, little brother, what's your name? Why did you get so seriously injured?" Hu Ling'er asked again.

After drinking the medicine porridge, the young man with a better complexion suddenly said sadly and sadly: "Sister Fairy, my name is Jiang Hu! My family lives in a town not far from here. Because the Xiliang soldiers broke through the town a few days ago, burned, killed and looted, my mother died in the chaos. And I was also caught by the Xiliang soldiers and was taken by the Xiliang Grand Marshal Su Baotong to practice flying knives. I was lucky to have escaped by my life. If it weren't for the Fairy sister's rescue, I would be afraid I would die in the wilderness."

"Okay, don't be sad! Hurry up and recover your injuries before you have the chance to go back and avenge your mother," Hu Ling'er, who sighed slightly in her heart, couldn't help but comfort Jiang Hu with a gentle voice.

Jiang Hu, who held back tears after hearing this, couldn't help but nodded firmly and said, "I must avenge this revenge!"

"By the way, Sister Fairy, I don't know what your name is yet!" Jiang Hu turned around and looked at Hu Ling'er and asked.

Before Hu Ling'er could speak, a gentle and light voice rang out: "The fairy sister you said is Hu Ling'er. Boy, get rid of her wounds as soon as possible. I won't take in idle people here."

"Brother Hua!" Turning to look at Chen Hua who was walking in outside, Hu Ling'er couldn't help but give him a angrily glance.

Jiang Hu, who looked up at Chen Hua, frowned slightly, forced himself to stand up and bow slightly to Hu Ling'er and said, "Sister Hu, thank you for your life-saving grace. Jiang Hu said goodbye!"

"Jiang Hu, right?" Before Hu Ling'er could speak, Chen Hua looked at Jiang Hu indifferently and said, "That medicine porridge was specially cooked by my wife for you. Drink it before leaving, so as not to waste it."

After saying that, Chen Hua moved, and he was sitting cross-legged on a stone bed in the distance, with his eyes slightly closed and meditated.

Seeing this, Jiang Hu, whose eyes were slightly glaring and looked surprised, turned to react and couldn't help but look hesitant and hesitant.

"Jiang Hu, go and drink the medicine porridge first!" Hu Ling'er ordered Jiang Hu.

Jiang Hu, who responded, hurried to go to the stove to serve the medicine porridge.

Seeing this, Hu Ling'er smiled, turned her eyebrows and frowned slightly, and walked straight to Chen Hua.

"I wonder why I drove that kid out?" Qing opened his eyes and aged. As a mysterious wave spread to the surrounding void, he looked at Hu Ling'er and smiled and said.

Hu Ling'er glanced at Chen Hua helplessly: "Brother Hua, he is pitiful enough, why did you drive him away?"

"Then why should I keep him here? He can't take revenge," Chen Hua said calmly.

Hu Ling'er frowned and said, "At least, let's talk about it when his injury is healed!"

"Aren't your medicinal porridge enough to heal his injuries?" Chen Hua, who asked back, shook his head and said, "He may not be outstanding in the past, but this time it was his chance to soar into the sky. For him, the most important thing now is to go out and face everything."

After saying that, Chen Hua couldn't help looking at Hu Ling'er with a slightly complicated expression: "Lingling, I know that Jiang Hu's affairs reminded you of your previous life experience. However, we really shouldn't interfere too much in Jiang Hu's affairs. Even if we want to interfere, we don't need to take the initiative. If he had that opportunity, he would naturally have a chance to meet us. As for now, there is really no need to be too involved with him."

"Okay!" Hu Ling'er was slightly silent when she heard this, and then nodded and sighed.

Looking at Chen Hua who turned and left, he meditated with his eyes slightly closed.

Half an hour later, Jiang Hu, who had finished taking the medicine porridge, took the initiative to say goodbye to Hu Ling'er, left here, and rushed straight to the small town where his hometown was.

When Jiang Hu made a arduous journey back to his home in a messy town, his injuries were almost healed.

However, his home had already turned into ruins, and was swallowed by flames.

"Senior Brother?" A voice of uncertainty and disbelief sounded. A young man in the same simple clothes had quickly arrived in front of Jiang Hu. He reached out and grabbed his shoulder in excitement and surprise and said, "Senior Brother, it's really you. Haven't you been captured by the Xiliang soldiers? I thought you were dead! How did you escape?"

Jiang Hu, who came to his senses slightly, turned to the point of being excited and asked: "Xiao Si, where is my mother? Where is my mother's body?"

"Senior Brother, I have buried her master's wife!" Xiao Si said in a hurry with a disappointed look when he heard this.

"Take me there!" Jiang Hu, who nodded slightly, hurriedly pulled Xiao Si and asked him to take him to the place where he buried his mother outside the town.

Not long after, Jiang Hu, who was kneeling in front of the newly built tomb on a wasteland outside the town, was so sad that he couldn't help but hold his hands tightly, and he didn't know that the blood was oozing between his fingers. He gritted his teeth and said, "Mom! Don't worry! The child will definitely avenge you."

"Senior brother, don't be too sad!" Xiao Si on the side hurriedly stepped forward and patted Jiang Hu on the shoulder and said.

Jiang Hu, who nodded and stood up slowly, his eyes flashed slightly, and then he looked at Xiao Si and said, "Xiao Si, what are your plans in the future?"

"Brothers died and scattered, but I am a soldier from the court after all. I am going to wait for the imperial army to come to join the army and avenge the dead villagers," Xiao Si said hurriedly.

"Okay! I'll be the one at that time!" Jiang Hua, who nodded and looked firm, then looked up at the distance and said, "But before that, I have to do one more thing."

Xiao Siyi couldn't help but frown and said, "Senior Brother, don't do anything randomly, impulsively go and take revenge directly!"

"Don't worry! I won't lose my life easily before I take revenge," Jiang Hu, who patted Xiao Si's shoulder, couldn't help but say: "I just want to improve my strength. Although I don't know if I can succeed, I have to try it no matter what. Otherwise, even if we enter the army, we will start with small soldiers and may die in battle at any time, and it will be difficult to have a chance to kill the enemy generals."
