Chapter 282 Chapter 285
Zhang Lie looked at Chen Jingchou again and said, "By the way, Brother Chen, what kind of Taoism did you use just now?"

Chen Jingchou wanted to say it a long time ago, when Zhang Lie asked him, he hurriedly said: "My Taoism is the Ghost Valley Taoism that Master forced me to learn, it is a kind of kung fu that uses magic power to hit a hundred with one blow. But to be honest, I haven't studied very seriously, so Master is much better than me..."

Zhang Lie nodded thoughtfully and said: "So this is called Ghost Valley Taoism... Brother Yu really learned a lesson today! To be honest...Brother Yu is very interested in Ghost Valley Taoism, can you invite Brother Chen to be Brother Yu someday? Recommend a respected teacher, so that brother Yu can also ask for help?"

"Okay, of course it's fine~~ But, Master is currently trapped in a mountain, and the situation is like this..." Chen Jingchou told Zhang Lie everything...

After listening, Zhang Lie nodded and said, "Oh... so you are looking for a divine cauldron that can refine hundreds of medicines, so that you can cure your Master Lei Xiaze's illness, and then save your master?"

Chen Jingchou said: "Well... that divine cauldron is called Shennong Cauldron. It is said to be one of the legendary ancient artifacts. It was kept by the Tuoba tribe of Xianbei for a long time."

"—Shen Nong Cauldron?" Zhang Lie laughed and said, "Haha~~We are really destined! To tell you the truth, little brother Chen——the Tuoba tribe you are looking for is the tribe of Brother Yu's wife! The wife's name is Tuoba Yue'er, she is the older sister of the girl you saw just now."

Chen Jingchou said strangely: "But the map my aunt gave me, the Tuoba tribe should still be on the grasslands in the northeast!"

Zhang Lie said: "That's right, but their tribe was wiped out by your stupid emperor last year, and the divine cauldron was also taken away at that time - I was in the Central Plains at the time, and when I heard that there was a major change in my wife's family, I rushed over Going back to the north, now the remnants of their tribe are being led by me temporarily, looking for water and grasslands, and they are currently passing through here."

At this time, a barbarian ran over and whispered to Zhang Lie: "Third Master, it's not good——I have something important to report to Third Master—!"

"Sorry, I'm being rude..." Zhang Lie left his seat and chatted with the two barbarians for a while.

"This matter is indeed serious...you go back immediately and tell everyone to be alert!"

"Yes - third master!"

Zhang Lie returned to his seat, Shen Mu asked, "Brother Zhang, what happened?"

"Uh, it's hard to say..." "The tribe just now suddenly notified Brother Yu that there was an emergency. During our search for aquatic plants, there was always a Sui army following us. We firmly believed that the divine cauldron was in our hands. From time to time Attack us! Brother Yu managed to annihilate them with his subordinates recently—unexpectedly, the spies just came to report that another suspicious army was found nearby! Brother Yu may have to leave for the time being—”

Chen Jingchou hurriedly said: "Ah, Brother Zhang, this is a big deal—please don't worry about us, go back to your tribe as soon as possible!"

"Sigh... It's rare to entertain three distinguished guests, but brother Yu, the host, actually left halfway by himself, it's really..." Zhang Lie apologized.

Shen Mu waved his hand and said, "Brother Zhang, there's no need to be like this..."

"That's right, Brother Zhang—it's an honor to know you." Chen Jingchou said.

Zhang Lie nodded, paused and said: "The Sui army that followed us before was very strange. Many of them could transform into monsters! In order to annihilate them, Brother Yu's subordinates suffered heavy casualties—so Brother Yu was very worried about who appeared this time. It's the demon troop again!"

Xiaoxue asked: "Brother Zhang, you said that the enemy will turn into a monster... Is it the same as the one in the market just now?"

"That's right, it's—" Zhang Lie nodded while stroking his beard.

Chen Jingchou lowered his head and thought for a moment, "Brother Zhang—we want to go to the Sui army camp with you, is it possible?"

Just now Zhang Lie said that his subordinates suffered heavy casualties, and the ambiguity was that there was a shortage of manpower. Zhang Lie saw that Chen Jingchou was willing to help, although he was happy in his heart, but his face was filled with displeasure, and he quickly waved his hands and said, "How can it be done—— ? That's very dangerous, and the three of you are my guests, Zhang Lie!"

"Brother Zhang... Please don't say that! You forgot that I have learned the Taoism of Guigu, which can help you deal with monsters! Besides... I want to go to Suiying to find information about the whereabouts of the divine cauldron. This will kill two birds with one stone." Chen Jingchou finally revealed the main purpose.

Zhang Lie said: "Okay, I understand—that's really great! In fact, brother Yu is also very difficult to deal with demons! If there are three who are willing to help, I will be grateful! According to the news from the scout just now: the enemy army appeared here In the woods three miles to the east, there is no need to delay, let's set off now."

……

When they came to the woods three miles to the east, two garrison guards saw a few people and scolded them: "Go away~~ Don't enter this woods...! Uh...!"

Before the two guards finished speaking, they dealt with Shen Mu and the others.

A few people sneaked into the camp and found four boys tied up in the center of the camp, with guards walking around. They hid and watched, "Brother Shen, it seems that this is the main camp of the enemy—"

"Woo...mother...mother!"

"Don't kill me, I want to go home...don't kill me..."

Shen Mu said in a low voice: "Brother Zhang, those are all children they captured from the town, I heard that they are—"

Zhang Lie nodded and said: "Well, brother Yu also heard a little bit about it - recently the capital sent many soldiers to search for boys in nearby towns, and after killing them, they donated their blood to a princess in the capital for beauty - —”

Chen Jingchou asked in a low voice: "Brother Zhang, what should we do next? Should we save these children first—"

"Wait a minute, someone came out—"

At this time, an officer came out, "It's strange... Lao Gao said that he was going to the town to catch more little ghosts and come back. How come he hasn't been seen for a long time?"

"It's not good, the big thing is not good—"

"What—? What happened?"

"Master Gao was defeated by some strange brats in Heishan Town, and the whole army was wiped out—"

"What—! How is this possible—what kind of person defeated him?"

"I don't know... It seems that he is not from the local area. He fled after defeating Gao Ye!"

"Damn—!" Lieutenant Sima almost vomited blood angrily, "Someone dares to fight against us? You guys, listen up—! Immediately kill these little devils, pack up the blood, and quickly transport it to the capital city. Dugu County Prince's Mansion, dedicated to the little princess."

"Yes……!"

"The rest of you, come with me right away—we'll go to Heishan Town right away!"

"Of order—" Lieutenant Sima led all the soldiers away, and there were only two soldiers left.

The two soldiers drew out their sabers, walked up to the four boys, and said with a smile: "I'm sorry~~ you little devils, wake up!"

"Don't, don't—mother~~mother~~" The four boys cried and huddled together.

"Well……!"

Shen Mu and the others quietly stepped forward and dealt with the two soldiers.

Xiaoxue said happily: "That's great - I finally managed to rescue these children in time..."

Shen Mu said, "Well—let's quickly untie their ropes."

"Thank you for saving me."

"Thank you big brother."

"Thank you, big brother."

"Thank you, brother, for saving me."

The four boys were rescued, and they quickly thanked them gratefully. Zhang Lie said, "See if there are any other children."

Chen Jingchou looked around, "Looks like it's gone, let's go."

"Bold—what are you doing?" Lieutenant Sima rushed back with all the soldiers, "Damn—it turns out that the people who attacked Lieutenant Gao in Heishan Town were you guys? You all retreat! If you can defeat Lieutenant Gao, Apparently these guys aren't simple—"

As he said that, Lieutenant Sima transformed into a skeleton monster, "Let me deal with it myself——!"

But this Lieutenant Sima was no match for Shen Mu and the others, but he was defeated as soon as they fought.

The soldiers under Lieutenant Sima turned pale with fright, "Run away—even the captain is no match..."

"Hahaha~~ What a group of villains who bully the good and fear the evil!" Shen Mu and the others brought four boys to Heishan Town. When the women in the town saw that their captured son had been rescued, they hurriedly told him Shen Mu and the others expressed their gratitude——

"Thank you...thank you heroes!"

"I really don't know how to thank you!"

Shen Mu waved his hands and said with a smile: "Haha, don't say that - it's nothing more than seeing an injustice and drawing your sword to help."

Zhang Lie said to the child's mother: "Everyone, everything is fine, hurry up and take the children home!"

"Thank you...! Thank you heroes for saving us!" The mothers left separately.

Looking at the joyful backs of these women leaving with their children, Zhang Lie said with a smile: "Hehe—seeing these mothers so happy, brother Yu really thinks that no matter how hard it is, it is worth it!"

"Exactly." Shen Mu felt that this was positive energy.

Xiaoxue smiled and nodded, "Yeah, really—"

Chen Jingchou said: "It's great to have the power to help them! Now I start to thank Master for asking me to learn these Taoisms - I was very repulsed before, and I didn't want to learn them at all!"

Zhang Lie said: "Hehe, there's nothing wrong - this time it's all thanks to the three of you. Brother Yu was able to defeat these monsters so smoothly. If the three don't mind, Brother Yu is currently camping nearby, would you like to go and sit?"

"Go to Brother Zhang's camp?" The three hesitated.

Zhang Lie nodded and said: "Brother Yu's camp, there are many Tuoba people, I think some of them should know, how many clues are there about the divine cauldron you are looking for?"

"It's so good, I'll have to thank Brother Zhang."

The three of Shen Mu followed Zhang Lie to the Turkic tribe, and met Zhang Lie's wife, Tuoba Yue'er. Here is the endless prairie, the air is fresh, and there are countless cattle and sheep. They stayed in the tent arranged by Zhang Lie, and then Zhang Lie sent out His Turkic subordinates went to inquire about the whereabouts of Shennong Ding.

Three days later, in the camp, Zhang Lie said to the three of them: "Last night, two of my subordinates came back and informed me that Shen Nong Dingxin is there!"

"……So fast?"

Zhang Lie smiled triumphantly and said: "Hehe~~ The three of you must not underestimate Brother Yu's subordinates, they are all masters in their own right. According to the investigation—————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— and the divine cauldron is indeed belonged to Yuwen before." In the hands of the Grand Master, and he has been hiding the Shennong Ding in a bunker in Zhuo County in the north."

Xiaoxue asked: "Hiding in the north? Why wasn't it transported back to the capital—"

"Not very clear—" Zhang Lie shook his head, "Anyway, Taishi Yuwen took Shennong Ding as his own in private, and I heard that even the emperor didn't know about it. But the strange thing is, I don't know why recently, Taishi Yuwen The fact that the master hid the divine cauldron was actually found out by the emperor!"

Shen Mu smiled and said, "Haha, the emperor must be furious, right?"

Zhang Lie also laughed and said: "Yes~~ He was very angry, and immediately sent the eunuch of the inner court to Zhuojun, ordering Grand Master Yuwen to hand over the divine cauldron immediately! Grand Master Yuwen was called back to Dongdu to accept the emperor's reprimand, and that The Shending was escorted to the south by the eunuch——The route of the Yunding troops has been investigated by my subordinates. They set out from Zhuojun and traveled southward along the Yongji Canal by ship. It seems that they intend to transport the Shending to... "

"Msanggong—no, it's not good!" Tuoba Yue'er broke into the tent, Zhang Lie stood up, "Yue'er...what's the matter?"

Tuoba Yue'er's complexion was a little pale, and she said in a panic: "Yu'er, Yu'er, she ran away privately—what did she say that she was going to find Shending!"

Zhang Lie was startled: "When did this happen—?"

"Okay, it seems like last night..." Tuoba Yue'er said, took out a letter and handed it to Zhang Lie: "She left a letter, saying that she wanted to retrieve the most precious divine tripod of our Tuoba clan, Please rest assured. She also said——Anyway, I know that you will definitely stop me, so I decided to leave without saying goodbye... What should I do now?"

"Damn—this girl who only causes trouble, how does she know where the divine cauldron is?" Zhang Lie was so angry that he walked back and forth in the tent, and then his eyes lit up: "I see—you must have come back to tell me last night. When I was carrying the tripod route, she overheard it outside the camp!"

"Then... what should we do, Mr. Tuoba Yue'er was so anxious that she was on the verge of tears.

Zhang Lie comforted, "Yue'er, don't worry—I'll go find her myself!"

Chen Jingchou said: "Brother Zhang, I'll go with you too! It's all because you investigated the whereabouts of the divine cauldron for us, that's why this happened - we are also responsible for this!"

Zhang Lie quickly waved his hand and said, "This matter is my family's troublesome girl's own problem, please don't blame yourself!"

Shen Mu said: "Brother Zhang, I hope to find Miss Tuoba together with you, and we can also find Shending."

Zhang Lie pondered for a moment, "Okay, little brother Chen... it's up to you. Let's find her together!" Then he turned around and said to his subordinates: "Elder Yuan, He Lianbo, during my absence, the tribe's affairs Please."

"Yes, third master, please rest assured!"

Zhang Lie stroked Tuoba Yue'er's shoulder and said: "Yue'er, don't worry—I will definitely find Yu'er back safely, so you can rest assured and leave it to me."

"Well... I believe in my husband! Please take care of yourself, too..." Tuoba Yueer bid farewell to Yu Zhanglie who was reluctant to part.

……

The four of Shen Mu crossed Dayanling, passed through Heishan Town, and came to Lujiadu. Seeing many soldiers guarding the bank, Chen Jingchou stepped forward and asked, "Excuse me...we want to cross the river, is it possible?" Embark here?"

The soldier hurriedly said: "Go away~~Go away~~ All the ships here have been chartered by Mr. Han, and they are going to be transported to the emperor's beauties!"

The four of them walked to a corner, and Chen Jingchou said indignantly: "These officers and soldiers are really too much! All the boats crossing the river have been taken by them!"

Shen Mu sneered and said, "What's more ironic is that they were used to carry some beauties in the harem to be dedicated to the emperor—the emperor's subordinates are more important than the life and death of ordinary people."

Chen Jingchou looked at the river and said: "This river is very wide, it looks like there are no boats, it seems that there is no way to get across—"

Shen Mu thoughtfully said: "I guess... the second princess was taken away by the army, and she is going to present it to the emperor as a... harem beauty?"

Chen Jingchou said: "...Wow, brother Shen! Your opinion is quite good, we didn't expect this."

"Brother Shen's opinion is reasonable...it is indeed possible." Zhang Lie stroked the stubble on his chin and said, "However, judging by that girl's personality... it is more likely that the emperor heard that the emperor was looking for beauties on the road, so he thought of taking advantage of it." Opportunity comes and counts—”

"Just counting...?"

Zhang Lie nodded and said in a low voice: "That's right...pretending to be captured, and then sneaking into the enemy camp to find out the whereabouts of Shending—" She is quite a girl, and she is very confident in her beauty and wit—using this method The possibility of this kind of adventure should be quite high! "

Chen Jingchou said: "Brother Zhang, if this is the case, Miss Tuoba's situation can be said to be even more dangerous——"

"Of course, as soon as she is discovered, her life will be over immediately... This baby will always be so forward-thinking!" Zhang Lie sighed, looking helplessly at the scorching sun in the sky.

"Brother Zhang...Maybe she is in this boat now, let's find a way to enter the boat and look for it!"

Several people came to the ferry again, and when the soldiers saw these people again, they said angrily: "Go away, go away~~ I have to tell you a few times, I tell you not to stay here!"

At this time, a group of soldiers came over from the entrance of the village and escorted several young and beautiful girls. The girls were crying and stopped walking.

"Go, go~~"

"Woo... woo..." The girl couldn't stop crying.

At this time, a sissy eunuch came over, "Why are you crying—? It is your great honor to serve the emperor in the palace. Why are you still crying?"
