Exorcism

Pang Shan and his party arrived at the east bank of Jiehe River early. There was an unmanned carriage, and Zuo Liuying was sitting in the sealed carriage. Mu Xingqiu was riding a flea, with Baldy in the backpack behind him - he was looking out through the holes, asking questions in a voice that he thought was very small. Yang Qingyin, Shen Hao and Xiao Hao were riding horses. The first two were more willing to fly with weapons, but Zuo Liuying stayed on the ground, so they had to accept the restraints of mortals. Xiao Hao didn't care and focused on braiding the thick horse mane into a With a little braid, he never tired of it and almost didn't raise his head.

There is also a horse with a saddle and saddle, but no one on its back.

"The princess is so arrogant. It's almost noon and she hasn't left the city yet." Yang Qingyin looked up at the sky, a little impatient. With her temper, she always left as she pleased.

"The princess is loved by the people. She must have been blocked in the city by the crowd." Shen Hao casually guessed that the usually bustling west end of the bridge was now empty, and everyone had obviously gone to the city.

"Isn't General Mu also deeply loved? Why is no one seeing him off?" Yang Qingyin curled her lips.

Mu Xingqiu's riding on the back of Qilin attracted quite a lot of attention. There were a few people on the east side of the bridge pointing in the distance, but no one dared to step forward. Ordinary people were a little afraid of Taoist priests and spiritual beasts.

Mu Xingqiu pointed to the northwest, "Look, I said we should prepare an extra horse."

Xiao Qingtao flew here. She had been saying that she would not go to the imperial capital, but she came at the last moment and said with a cold face, "No one is allowed to laugh, and no one is allowed to ask too many questions."

"Are we laughing?" Yang Qingyin raised the corners of her mouth, trying hard to control her smile.

"No." Mu Xingqiu and Shen Hao said seriously together.

The princess's escort team finally left the city and rescued Xiao Qingtao from the embarrassment.

The princess's wedding procession was not gorgeous at all. There were only about a hundred people, most of whom were on horseback and a few in cars. There were no gorgeous flags to indicate the joy. There were no boxes or bundles of dowries. Instead, it looked like a small army going out to suppress bandits, followed by countless civilians.

It was a silent send-off. Everyone hopes that the princess will stay, but they also know that they cannot delay the princess' marriage. I had to give him one more ride.

The escorting convoy had already crossed the bridge, but the people still refused to stop. The convoy stopped, but the princess could no longer be seen in public. Mr. Pan, who was wearing an exquisite Purple Talisman Army armor, drove back to the bridge and stopped everyone, "Her Royal Highness the Princess will always be Xijie." Chinese people, as long as she is still there, they will definitely drive out the demon clan and regain their homeland so that everyone can go home!"

It took a while to pass on the princess's oath, and there were cries in the crowd. Mr. Pan persuaded the people who were seeing him off for a while before he asked the people who were seeing him off to turn around and return to the city.

"Mortals are really troublesome. Their lifespan is so short, and they are still wasting time meaninglessly." Yang Qingyin whispered, finding it difficult to understand. When she was most intimate with her parents, her eyes only stayed on each other's faces for a little longer. Yes, I will never be reluctant to leave.

"Not every mortal has this kind of treatment." Mu Xingqiu admired the princess very much. And he knew very well that if there was a war with the demon clan in the future, the person worthy of trust would still be the princess. Not King Xisuke.

The escorting procession continued to move forward, with Taoist priest Pang Shan following at the end of the procession. Mr. Pan nodded slightly to the Taoist priests but did not say hello as he chased forward.

Several armies were stationed on the east bank of the Jie River. As a reserve force for Duanliu City, half were from the Xijie Kingdom and the Dongjie Kingdom, and the other half were from the Huangfu Army. They saw off the princess in another way: all wearing helmets and armor, Soldiers lined both sides of the road. Officers on horseback guarded both sides of the convoy. Without saying a word, he escorted the convoy to the next military camp and turned back.

A whole ten miles. That's all.

Even Yang Qingyin didn't say much. Only Xiao Hao was amazed at this, "Wow, the princess is so majestic. I really want to meet her in person."

Liang Shiji, the great talisman master, also came to see him off. He was sitting on a horse at the gate of the last military camp. He did not deliver a speech in person, but sent a general to come over and say a few polite words. Mr. Pan received him and the motorcade did not stop.

When Taoist Pangshan passed by, Liang Shiji showed a smile on his face, nodded slightly, and touched the nine-layered crown on his head with his right hand, as if he was paying tribute, and it seemed like a very casual action.

"It seems he hasn't learned the lesson yet." Shen Hao whispered.

Mu Xingqiu also nodded slightly, thinking that when he arrived in the imperial capital, Long Bin would come up with many tricks, but he was also a little confused. Would Qu Xungui really dare to challenge Pangshan Taoism? Although Pangshan has declined and is the weakest among the Nine Dao Traditions, for Long Binhui, it is still a mountain that cannot be kicked.

The team enters no man's land and slowly speeds up. After a while, the princess' team will use talismans to speed up, and the Taoist priests will also cast spells to follow. Even so, it is still much slower than flying. It takes at least 10 minutes to reach the imperial capital from Xijie Kingdom. Twenty days.

An anxious voice suddenly sounded from the roadside, "Is General Mu here?"

Someone answered in the affirmative, and the sound of bamboo boards sounded again on the roadside, and someone started singing.

Taoist Pangshan looked forward and saw a blind artist standing on the side of the road. He was quite young, thin and shabby. He was beating bamboo boards and singing a song. It was the song "The General's Journey" that was banned by Liang Shiji. He probably knew that the team would pass by him soon, so he didn't start singing from the beginning and went directly to the most exciting part:

The team did not stop and quickly passed in front of the singer. Mu Xingqiu hurriedly said "thank you", but Yang Qingyin stayed behind and listened for a while, then caught up and said, "The person who sent it to you did not send the princess. many."

Mu Xingqiu smiled. With Huang Fujun and Liang Shiji present, no one in Duanliu City dared to see General Mu off publicly.

Xiao Hao asked curiously: "Is this you, General Mu?"

Mu Xingqiu nodded.

"Have you really fought in 'Hundred Wars'?"

Mu Xingqiu shook his head.

"Can I call you General Mu from now on? I think this title is more interesting."

Mu Xingqiu sighed and said firmly: "No."

After the first day of the trip, the team had not left the territory "lent" by Dongjie Kingdom to Xijie Kingdom. The princess stayed in a camp that had been prepared outside a city and received an extremely warm welcome. In addition to the defenders of the city, Officials, residents of the West Country, and people from the East Country also admired her greatly. They crowded to the gate of the camp to watch and kowtow to the princess's carriage.

The princess was waiting to be married and could not see any outsiders. Master Pan took care of all the matters. There was a lot of excitement outside the camp for a while, but it became quiet when the city gate was about to close.

Pang Shan had been in confrontation with the demon clan for several years, and had developed the habit of vigilance. He naturally arranged a vigil, with Yang Qingyin and Xiao Qingtao at one end and Shen Hao and Mu Xingqiu on duty in the middle.

Mu Xingqiu actually didn't sleep, he kept thinking. Even though he wouldn't be able to reach the Dingxia realm for a while, he still couldn't let go of his cultivation skills. When the time came, he would go out to replace Shen Hao, leaving the bald man's backpack behind.

Shen Hao nodded to Mu Xingqiu, indicating that there was no problem, and went back to his account to do his homework.

Mu Xingqiu lit a candle and walked slowly in the camp. Ten soldiers provided by the locals guarded the entrance of the camp. Every time he saw the Taoist priest passing by, he would try to straighten his body to drive away the heavy sleepiness.

Mu Xingqiu had no choice but to avoid them, walking back and forth between several tents, checking with his extraordinary hearing every once in a while. There was only an ups and downs of snoring. Zuo Liuying didn't get out of the car, and there was no sound from him. If he hadn't seen the first car walk in with his own eyes, Mu Xingqiu would have thought it was an empty car.

Half an hour later, he heard slight footsteps. Someone walked out of the princess's tent and quietly walked towards Zuo Liuying's carriage.

Mu Xingqiu walked around the tent and saw a woman standing ten steps away from the carriage. She hesitated and stared for a long time. She sighed softly, turned around and walked back. After a few steps, she saw Mu Xingqiu. Instead of being afraid, he showed a happy smile and whispered: "Long time no see, Catechumenate."

This is Zuo Liuying's former maid Zeng Fu. She has no Dao roots and is just an ordinary person. After the Battle of Duanliu City, she was very dissatisfied with Zuo Liuying's ruthlessness and voluntarily left him and entered the palace to serve the princess. . Although she takes good care of herself, the effects of time are still there, and there are more wrinkles at the corners of her eyes when she smiles.

"Well, long time no see. I don't think the leader is asleep," Mu Xingqiu said.

Zeng Fu shook his head, "Even if he is asleep, he still knows everything, so..." She smiled and said that there was no need to inform Zuo Liuying, "I really envy you Taoist priests. Look at you, you are still the same as a few years ago. Same. I heard that Taoists will unconsciously keep their appearance at the moment when they are most excited. www.sh.co It seems to be correct. "

Mu Xingqiu was slightly startled. He had heard similar statements, but he had never paid much attention to them. After Zeng Fu reminded him, he suddenly realized that Shen Hao, who was also a Taoist priest, was changing. He was becoming more mature and steady. Xiao Qing Tao also lost all his childishness, but he didn't change, because his heart still stayed at the moment when Fangfang broke the pill, and Yang Qingyin almost didn't change either...

"Maybe he wants to see you." Mu Xingqiu changed the subject.

Zeng Fu shook his head with a smile, "I hope you don't misunderstand me. My feelings for the first one are like a daughter missing her father. You only saw me when I was older than the first one, but you didn't see the scenes of me being naughty around him when I was a child. . Haha, my sister used to be more naughty than me, but when she grew up, she was more stable than me, more like the leader..."

Thinking of another maid who volunteered to die at Laozu Peak, Zeng Fu put away his smile and said, "I was just a baby when I was adopted by the First One. I don't know why the First One chose to stop looking at the age of ten, and I, even if I am old enough to die I can't move, my face is full of wrinkles, and here -" Zeng Fu pointed at his heart, "I always stop at seven or eight years old. When I accidentally fall, the leader will come and help me up. "

Mu Xingqiu thought, maybe Zuo Liuying's change was really related to Zeng Fu...

Zeng Fu looked at Mu Xingqiu's thoughtful look and smiled, "Hey, don't think about it, and don't believe too much in your judgment of him. For example, this time, he is not traveling with the princess for me, but for me. To protect the safety of the princess, there were rumors as early as a month ago that someone in the imperial capital would stop the princess from marrying into the royal family at all costs. "
