During the days when the two disappeared, Guihua City seemed to be preparing to defend the city in an orderly manner, and from time to time they sent out riders to patrol the surrounding area.But in fact, the high-level executives are already in a hurry, and many people who know the truth are even so anxious that their mouths are foaming.

That day when five hundred elite soldiers escorted the defeated Fengwu troops into the city, the city was filled with jubilation.These defeated soldiers are all the elites of the great merchants, such a result is enough to boost morale.And those captured horses are like sending charcoal in the snow, so that a group of cavalry can be quickly formed in the city.

Although the commander of the guards had issued a strict order to keep the secrets before leaving, it was difficult for the prisoners to keep their mouths shut.During the interrogation, they would always proudly say that if your emperor and heaven worshiper fall into the hands of the Grand Master, they must be dead.

Even though Hong Ming immediately ordered people to stop the interrogation after finding out about it, the important figures in the city already knew what they should know about the news about the emperor and Ning Yunjin being hunted down.After waiting for four full days, they didn't expect the emperor to return to the city, but they only heard the news that Meng He had personally led the troops to return to the imperial court, and they were immediately heartbroken.

No news is good news though.But being pursued by the great master, no one has confidence in Wen Zhen and Ning Yunjin.When the emperor might have an accident, the people were most worried about the prince's safety.Everyone knew that if the emperor and the crown prince had an accident at the same time, Da Xia would be in chaos just for fighting for the throne.

After news of Meng's imminent arrival reached Guihua, the atmosphere in the city suddenly became more tense.

Looking at the counselors kneeling on the ground in front of him, Hong Ming fell into deep thought.

A group of people headed by Qin Ke suggested that Hong Ming go to Datong before Meng or arrived.After all, although Guihua is the largest city on the prairie, it is still inferior to Datong, known as the "Northern Key". There are only 2 troops in the garrison, which is completely different from Datong, which accounts for one-twelfth of Daxia's troops. one level.If Meng Yu was determined to take down the crown prince for revenge of being captured, then naturalization might not be able to withstand such an onslaught.

But amidst such unanimous calls for Hong Ming to retreat, there were also people like Shen Lu Gong who sincerely stood on his side and considered him.

Not to mention that Hongming, as the crown prince, has the principle of guarding the land. It was fine to divide the army when transporting food before. Now when he is going to face Meng or, if he escapes again, no matter how much he writes, it will be difficult to cover up. The crown prince's cowardice, and if the prince wants to leave, Guihua will inevitably allocate a large number of troops to escort, which will make Guihua City even worse.

It would be fine if Guihua City was not lost, but if it was breached due to insufficient troops, it would become a stain on Hong Ming.

If something happened to the emperor, and the crown prince returned to the capital, he could wait to ascend the throne. That would be better. If the emperor came back alive, how would he treat the crown prince in the future?You must know that the position of the prince can also be replaced, but there are still several princes who are watching.

It was Shen Lu Gong's advice that made Hong Ming extremely entangled.Although he didn't know how powerful his father's imperial power was, that kid Ning Yunjin was also by his side. A heaven worshiper and an earth sacrificer might really have a way to escape the great master's pursuit.

Besides, Hong Ming was not convinced from the bottom of his heart. Ning Yunjin's battle with the weak over the strong almost pushed his reputation to the top, making his reputation among the people even stronger than that of himself, the prince.

Ning Sanyuan, who is the same age as the prince, is not only talented in civil and martial arts, resourceful, but also a heaven worshiper. In addition to his astonishing achievements, he can be said to be a legend. The most popular thing is about Ning Yunjin. I don't know how many people admire and worship him, and they have robbed Hongming of the glory of the prince.

What Hongming hated the most in his life was that others compared Ning Yunjin to himself, and the most depressing thing was that he really couldn't surpass that person. If he was timid and avoided the battle again this time, he might have a demon for the rest of his life.

In the end, the competitive nature of young people prevailed, and Hong Ming made up his mind, "I have made up my mind, and I will never leave Naturalization until I defeat Meng or. You don't need to persuade me anymore, get ready for battle!"

Three days later, he felt extremely grateful for his decision. If he had been preparing to return to Datong at that time, he might have to be a man with his tail between his legs in the capital in the future.

Ning Yunjin and Wen Zhen, who had found a way to leave, naturally couldn't really be trapped to death in that cave. Although there were some small twists and turns, they still managed to leave the pool.

The so-called twists and turns are a kind of discrimination to Wenzhen, the piece of jade in Ning Yunjin's hands can heal him naturally, and it can also be combined with his aura to recover.But when it is in my hands, it can only improve his spirit and sharpen his five senses, and there is no way to touch some special functions.

This discovery made the two of them have to entrust Ning Yunjin with the heavy responsibility of taking possession, but it also made them feel relieved. It's not easy for the land users to use, and it's less of a threat to Great Xia.

The so-called divination is divination and asking divination. In the ancient times, no matter what big things people did, they had to ask a divination first to determine good luck. Therefore, many divination methods such as eight trigrams, nine palaces, yin and yang and five elements plus heavenly stems and earthly branches have been developed.

After all, Ning Yunjin's energy is limited. At present, what he dabbles in is only non-easy divination such as divination and Lingqijing, that is, divination methods that are not based on gossip, but it is enough for them at the moment.Since there were no pieces of bamboo or animal bones, the two of them had to carve twelve chess pieces out of stone, with four top, middle, and bottom pieces engraved on them.

This method of fortune-telling is called the Spiritual Chess Classic. If other people use it, they have to turn over the book to compare and combine the hexagrams, but Ning Yunjin memorized the book when he was studying, and it will naturally come in handy at this moment.

Since whether the stone pillars can be stepped on or not is subject to change, it is naturally impossible to wait for them to occupy them one by one in place, and then jump out directly.They got a stone basin to hold the chess pieces, and then Wen Zhen hugged Ning Yunjin.Every time you take a Shangji stone pillar, you jump on it, and then take the second step to figure out which one you should land on.

Such a method is a great test for Ning Yunjin. He must choose a safe path in the shortest time. A small mistake will be accompanied by his and Wenzhen's two lives. It was a double-layer torture of ability and spirit, the most thrilling one, the stone pillar had already started to sink, but he hadn't chosen the next stone pillar yet.

The soles of Wen Zhen's shoes were already submerged in the water. Even though he immediately lifted one foot, the other foot was inevitably submerged gradually along with the stone pillar.But his hand holding Ning Yunjin was as steady as a rock, motionless, not even a hint of urging.This kind of determination made Ning Yunjin calm down, and immediately selected the next pillar to occupy.

After leaving the pool, both of them breathed a sigh of relief, sitting on the ground for a long while without strength to move.

Although he stayed in the water for less than a minute, Wen Zhen dragged his boots off only to find that his right foot was glowing red with several blisters, and the pain made him frown after the sock was taken off.

Ning Yunjin couldn't say anything sarcastic after seeing the miserable condition on Wenzhen's feet.He crossed his feet and meditated on the spot, "I'll try to see if this jade huang can heal you after I recover."

Looking at Ning Yunjin who had closed his eyes, the corners of Wenzhen's mouth couldn't help curling up. Although his feet hurt, he wasn't unbearable, but just frowning could test out the kid's concern for him, but It's worth it too.

Even the low-level quack warlocks have the taboo of asking no more than three hexagrams a day, so that we can know that it is not that simple to use divination, and in order to ensure safety and increase the accuracy of divination, Ning Yunjin will inevitably use it. With the power of blood, without the support provided by Na Yuhuang, it would be impossible for him to complete such a large project by himself.His body is now as if a thief has gone to the empty building, and he can no longer generate any strength to treat Wen Zhen.

Ning Yunjin didn't wake up until nightfall after meditating. Wen Zhen didn't wake him up. After all, it's not clear whether Bi Canglang is outside or not. It's the most correct choice for both of them to keep their best condition and go out.

Sensing Ning Yunjin's movement, Wen Zhen, who was on alert while closing his eyes, immediately woke up, "How are you doing now, are you feeling better?"

"The internal power and blood power are only half recovered, but they should be enough to heal you." Ning Yunjin groped to get close to Wen Zhen, and took the jade huang in his hand.He didn't know how to use Yuhuang's healing ability, so he had to recite all the healing spells he knew. After tossing for a long time, he still didn't respond. Just when Ning Yunjin was about to get discouraged and prepared to pray for Wen Zhen directly , suddenly the jade huang shone slightly, and the soft white light looked extraordinarily bright in the dark.

The white light fell on Wenzhen's injured foot, and soon those burns gradually disappeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After Wenzhen was cured, the energy Ning Yunjin had just recovered was exhausted, so he had to start meditating again to recover.

The two of them hadn't had a drop of water for a full day and a half, and they were tired after all this tossing. Naturally, they didn't have the heart to think about those romantic things. They just hugged each other, endured hunger, and worked together.

When the two of them finally saw the light of day again, they realized that the cave was far away from the valley at the beginning, and the hostility that was harmful to ordinary people had been weakened to the minimum, no wonder Bi Canglang could not be affected.

I don't know if Bi Canglang was too stimulated, or if he was confident that he could trap the two of them to death, but he didn't stay here, and the two hurriedly found their location and left in a hurry.After leaving the mountainous area, they realized that there was still more than a day away from naturalization. After hearing that Mengguo had already besieged the city, they rushed towards naturalization.

Wenzhen, as the emperor, has been missing for such a long time, Ning Yunjin knows with his toes that if he doesn't show up again, there will be a big mess.

Even though he understood Wen Zhen's anxiety in his heart, he still couldn't help complaining when he ate the dry food that was so bad that he could choke to death. It was really unlucky for him to go out this time, except for getting that piece of jade. The good thing is that the rest is to be tossed back and forth by the emperor, the prince, and the great master.

"Then Bi Canglang is really a tosser, he can just go in from the cave here, why bother to grab us and accompany him on this trip."

Wen Zhen took a bite of the steamed bun as if venting his anger when he finished speaking, puffing up his cheeks, which was really cute.He slowly tore off a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth, but his eyes were fixed on Ning Yunjin.Even though he was eating unpalatable food, looking at the person in front of him, he actually felt a sense of happiness.

"The entrance to the imperial mausoleum is usually easy to inquire about. Even after so many years, the Fengwu clan has so many branches, but their inheritance has not been broken. There are always classics in the clan to find the specific location." Wenzhen explained , "But the passages secretly built by craftsmen are often not recorded. Even if Bi Canglang knew that there was such a place, he might not be able to find it."

After Ning Yunjin complained, he actually thought about it, but he felt a little uncomfortable looking at Wen Zhen's gentle eyes. He always felt a little guilty to bear his sincerity under such sunlight. If one day Wen Zhen knew that he was clearly Knowing that it was his son but accepting him, would he forgive himself?

Before the conversation between the two could continue, they heard shouts and neighing of horses in the distance, and it was heard that the formation was not just one or two horses, but a team with a large number of people.

Ning Yunjin and Wen Zhen exchanged glances, immediately tidied up the things around them, and jumped onto a big tree two feet away.The reason why the two are so cautious is because of their current location, which is between Guihua and Liangcheng, a very remote and precipitous woodland.If it wasn't for a detour to meet Wenzhen's Luanjia, they would not have chosen this road at all.

You can walk out of the mountain ten miles further from here, but that place is also an extremely narrow canyon, which is a bit like a one-man guard. If an ambush is set up there, even Wen Zhenluan and tens of thousands of soldiers and horses escort him Shout every day should not.

Not long after the two hid in the tree, they saw a scout squad appear in their field of vision.The leading man was thin, his movements were very light, and his face was cautious.Even though Ning Yunjin had concealed his whereabouts a little, that person seemed to have discovered some clues, and searched carefully the place where they stopped just now.

The man bent down and wiped it on the ground, put his hand under his nose and smelled it, and said, "Someone just ate steamed buns here, you guys cheer me up."

A person beside him smiled and said, "Boss, you are too cautious. It seems that there are only two people at most in this situation. I'm afraid there are some countrymen passing by here."

The man saw that everyone in the team was a little disapproving, and felt that he seemed to be too cautious, but he couldn't save face, so he said seriously, "The prince fell into a big somersault last time, but he just counted on this time to achieve glory. The result of the battle, if you are careless and miss the job, don't blame me for not protecting you."

When they walked away cursing, Ning Yunjin glared at Wen Zhen who was beside him, "Why are you so polite when you have a meal in the wilderness, leaving so much scum, you were almost discovered!"

Wen Zhen ignored his provocation, and leaned into his ear and whispered, "From the tone of those soldiers, it seems that they are deceived or want to attack me."

"How is it possible?" Ning Yunjin was born very keen in fighting, and he guessed Menghe's intentions in an instant, "He knew that the inside of the Luanjia was empty, and he said it was a slap in the face, so he probably wanted to be naturalized. If he went to The naturalized army is blocked in the mountains, how do you say the reaction of the surrounding troops?"

He understood this, and Wenzhen thought it through, "Even if you know it's an empty Luanjia, in order not to lose your tongue, the surrounding garrisons will come to rescue. This way, the reinforcements in Guihua City will be reduced, even if they come one by one. Returning can only be delayed for a day, which is enough to influence the situation of the battle."

Thinking of this, he grabbed Ning Yunjin and said, "Come on, let's rush back to Luanjia before them."

Ning Yunjin didn't move, his eyes were attracted by the team in the distance.While they were talking, the leading troops could already see the leading troops. Unlike the usual full cavalry configuration, it could be seen that this team was mostly infantry, and there were even vehicles dragging luggage behind them.He estimated the number of this team in his mind, and vaguely guessed Menger's plan.

"There are only 1 cavalry among the [-] people, Meng or this is a desperate attempt." Ning Yunjin whispered, he grabbed Wen Zhen's sleeve, "Are you interested in playing a big one?"

Wen Zhen's favorite thing to see is his little appearance with joyful eyebrows and wanting to make a fool of himself. He couldn't help but put Ning Yunjin's full and round earlobe in his mouth, took a bite, and then whispered, "Speaking of it Listen."

Ning Yunjin covered his ears, glared at him, and then analyzed, "Meng only has [-] soldiers and horses at hand. If there is no internal response to open the city gate, the siege will need at least ten times as many troops to break through. According to the cavalry, one man with two For the configuration of horses, he has transferred at least [-] healthy horses, there are only two possibilities."

He snapped his fingers, "One is to use these horses to equip another team, and the other is to equip the original soldiers with one more horse. Now that he is in such a situation, it is impossible to immediately increase the number of troops, so it can only be the second situation."

After all, Wen Zhen is also familiar with military books. After Ning Yunjin said this, he gradually cleared up his train of thought.He said thoughtfully, "One man and three horses are mostly used for running thousands of miles and chasing and fighting. If Luan Jia is lost, then release the news of Zhen Jia's death. Even if Hong Ming decides to defend Guihua City, other people will definitely coax Let him quickly lead his troops back to the capital to ascend the throne. As long as he leaves the city, he will have a chance. With the power of the Fengwu cavalry, more than 1 people can break through the battle."

As he spoke, he clenched his fist, "No wonder the Fengwu clan has not released the news of my disappearance until now."

Ning Yunjin only felt comfortable talking to smart people who had similar ideas to his own. He opened his own head and the other party could pick up the topic without having to spend too much time explaining. It was extremely enjoyable.He looked at Wen Zhen expectantly, wondering if this man could guess what he was going to encourage him to do!

His expression is caught by Wenzhen himself. If two people fall in love, but every day you and I show affection and blind other people's eyes, then it is definitely not the emotion Wenzhen needs.Like now, the sparks of the two people's thoughts collide with each other, and the tacit understanding produced by mutual influence even has an attraction beyond sex.

He didn't even need to think deeply, he had already guessed Ning Yunjin's plan, "If you want to rely on these people to defend the canyon, then they must bring cannons and explosives. Could it be that you want to use these things?"

"Don't you think it's interesting that these things exploded in their camp?" Ning Yunjin grinned, "With the speed of the army, Luanjia will not pass through the canyon at least until noon tomorrow, and they must stop to rest before that. That's our chance."

Different from Ning Yunjin's love of adventure, Wen Zhen was restless and took a huge risk when he captured his husband Meng Zhuoming. Most of the other times he made decisions before acting, but in the end it was the man's natural adventurous spirit that prevailed. Quite emotionally asked, "There are only two of us, how can you sneak in among them?"

Ning Yunjin chuckled, but did not reveal his plan.He grabbed Wen Zhen's hand and jumped off the big tree, darting forward.

"Come on, let's get there first."

There was only one road leading to that canyon, so there was no need for the two of them to follow the group.As the two advanced rapidly, Ning Yunjin explained, "Before I heard that they were going to be naturalized, I read the local chronicles of this area. I heard that there are two huge rocks on the top of the canyon, which look like an old woman and a young woman. , people made up a legend about the Stone of Wang Zi Wang Husband, it is said that there was a husband who went out to fight and never came back, his old mother and wife turned into two stones in order to wait for him."

"Such legends seem to exist everywhere." Wen Zhen nodded.

Ning Yunjin smiled, "That's true. But these two rocks were born very coincidentally, just in the center of the top of the canyon. If they want to build a village, they can only surround these two rocks. Let's go there first, These ordinary soldiers will definitely not be able to reach the top, and when the time comes we will be condescending, and we will have a chance to do something."

Wen Zhen said in surprise, "What you see is so complicated, you have noticed all the details."

Ning Yunjin chuckled, he didn't know this from reading books all his life, but he had explored the terrain here before, so he knew it very well!

It wasn't until the two arrived there that Wen Zhen realized that the canyon was really dangerous.There are huge boulders on both sides of the canyon. The two walls are nearly [-] feet high. The most dangerous place can only accommodate four cars in parallel. The mountain wall extends to the grassland, forming a slope.And the two rocks that Ning Yunjin mentioned are standing at the top of the narrowest passage.

The two of them flew up to the top of the Wangzi Wangfu Stone. These two stones had been polished smooth by wind, sand, rain and snow. Even with their skills, it took a lot of effort to climb up.

When it was near dusk, the team that came to ambush arrived here, but only [-] infantrymen came here, and not a single chariot or horse was seen. Those cannons and explosives were all carried up by human labor.With more than ten miles of road and so much baggage, many soldiers sat on the ground and couldn't get up when they reached the ground.

The general leading the troops obviously knew that the soldiers needed to rest, so he just brought a group of people to start camping, and did not place the explosives immediately.

It was night, and there was only a crescent moon hanging high in the night sky. When the snoring sounded everywhere in the tent, Ning Yunjin and Wen Zhen jumped down from the top of the rock like light swallows. They looked at each other and smiled, and immediately split up. stand up.
