Eternal Sword

Chapter 176 Gathering from all directions
Lu Qianshan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly said: "Let those kids come over. If there is a fight later, let the three of them leave in the chaos, and we will leave too. Don't wait until night."

Lu Qianshan nodded.

These days, Chen Tang and others are wanted throughout Bingzhou, and there are constables, Bingzhou soldiers, and Qinglong guards everywhere.

Once the White Tiger Division takes action to arrest someone, the news here will spread quickly and is likely to attract the attention of these people.

Mrs. Lu waved toward the thatched cottage at the back.

Chen Tang and three others walked over.

Madam Lu explained the pros and cons to Chen Tang and the other two, and said, "When the time comes, our family won't be able to go with you. You three should be careful."

Chen Tang and the other two nodded in agreement.

Although the old man might be a man from the previous dynasty, Chen Tang knew his own limitations and understood that he could not save anyone with his abilities.

He is in a difficult situation now and is lucky to escape from Bingzhou.

Lu Qing felt a little reluctant and a little worried, so she said, "Why don't we let them come with us, so they can take care of us on the way."

Mrs. Lu did not comment, but just glanced at Lu Qing with a hint of reproach in her eyes.

Their family has a special status, and if they get too close to Chen Tang and others, they will implicate them instead.

What's more, taking care of Lu Qianshan and Lu Qing was already her limit, how could she take care of so many people?

Lu Qing lowered his head slightly.

Chang Sunming noticed this, smiled and said, "Lu Qing, you don't have to worry about us. At worst, I can take Haitang and Heigou to my house for a while to stay out of the spotlight."

"Ok."

Lu Qing nodded.

At this moment, Mrs. Lu seemed to realize something, her face changed, she came to the window and looked outside Yanyu Village.

"What's wrong?" Lu Qianshan asked.

"I'm afraid it's too late."

Madam Lu looked solemn and said, "Yanyu Village has been surrounded by the Bingzhou Army!"

Chen Tang and the other three felt a sinking feeling in their hearts.

If it was the Bingzhou Army, they were obviously coming for the four of them!

Next to the wine shop.

The old man looked outside the village and frowned slightly.

Why make such a big fuss just to catch him?

Ying Liquan, commander-in-chief of the White Tiger Division, also noticed the situation outside and looked sideways.

Dozens of riders slowly approached the village entrance, with three riders in the lead. One of them was Shi Hongzhang, the commander-in-chief of the Qinglong Division of Bingzhou City. In the middle was a white-robed mystic, and the other was the commander of Bingzhou City, Dugu Di.

Dozens of riders rode into Misty Rain Village.

Shi Hongzhang and Dugu Di saw the people from the White Tiger Division next to the tavern at a glance and were surprised.

"Brother Ying, it's been a long time since we last met in Beijing. I didn't expect to meet you here."

Shi Hongzhang dismounted from his horse and walked forward to greet him.

"Haha, Brother Shi, how are you?"

Ying Liquan stood up, laughed loudly, looked at Dugu Di, and nodded slightly: "Master Duwei."

"Master Ying."

Dugu Di bowed and clasped his hands.

Ying Liquan asked, "Why are you two making such a big fuss?"

"Hehe, catch a few petty thieves and find out that they are hiding in this Misty Rain Village."

Shi Hongzhang asked, "What is the purpose of your visit, Lord Ying?"

“It’s also about arresting people.”

Ying Liquan smiled meaningfully and said, "But our goals are different, so we should just do our own things."

Shi Hongzhang turned his eyes and saw that a dozen White Tiger Guards were standing in a position that vaguely surrounded an old man who was drinking tea next to a tavern. He guessed the general idea in his mind.

Dugu Di said, "A few days ago, a lieutenant of the White Tiger Division, a cavalry lieutenant of Bingzhou City, a garrison commander, and even a sorcerer of Xuantian Temple died tragically. It seems that this is related to the person that Lord Ying wants to capture."

Three fourth-grade and two foundation-building sorcerers died. It was impossible that those four people were responsible.

Even Fairy Yudi didn't have this ability. The person who could make the White Tiger Commander of the capital personally come out to arrest him was in Bingzhou. Thinking back to what happened before, Dugu Di's first reaction was that those people died at the hands of this old man!
The old man pretended not to hear and secretly thought of a countermeasure.

A few people were chatting here. Among the dozens of riders behind them, there was a young girl who was riding on a horse and seemed to be watching and looking for someone.

"Murong Haitang?"

At the Lu family, Chang Sun Ming was startled when he saw the young girl among dozens of riders. He had a strange look on his face and muttered something.

"what?"

Chen Tang asked with a sidelong glance.

"I didn't call you."

Chang Sun Ming pointed outside and whispered, "It's really Murong Haitang who came..."

Chen Tang: “???”

Chang Sun Ming looked quite relaxed when he saw the visitor.

He has already thought about it.

At worst, just reveal your identity.

The garrison didn't recognize the captain from before.

But the commander-in-chief of the Qinglong Division and Dugu Di must know him.

Before, outside Bingzhou City, he covered his face and did not want to reveal his identity, but given the current situation, he had no choice but to reveal his identity.

Yuwen Heigou was even calmer.

At this moment, outside Yanyu Village, there was a hint of restlessness among the Bingzhou Army.

After a moment's stalemate, the formation automatically made way for a gap, and more than a hundred cavalrymen walked in from outside.

"Ok?"

Dugu Di frowned.

Without his order, who could make the Bingzhou army give way?
In a blink of an eye, more than a hundred riders arrived at the village entrance.

Everyone looked over and saw that the leader was wearing silver-white fish-scale armor, with a fine iron spear across his horse's back. He had a firm face and sharp eyes that could not be looked at directly!

The warhorse he was riding was also covered in silver armor, and the hair exposed outside was bright red without a trace of other colors, looking extremely majestic!
The other man was wearing a brocade robe, had a broad and fat body, a face full of flesh, and his eyes looked very small, but they revealed a gleam of brilliance.

This man has an ordinary appearance, but behind him, there are several masters of Xuantian Temple, like stars surrounding the moon.

"Why are they here?"

When Yuwen Heigou saw these two people, his expression changed.

Even with such a big scene just now, he remained quite calm.

Ying Liquan recognized him.

Even in the worst case scenario, if he revealed his identity, it would be enough to protect Lu Qing, Chen Tang and others.

But how come these two people are here?
When Mrs. Lu saw the person coming, her heart sank and her face turned pale.

She didn't know either of them.

But I recognized that the one on the left was from the Yuwen family.

And the one on the right is obviously from Xuantian Sect!
The appearance of these two forces is probably not just for the old man or Chen Tang and his companions.

Madam Lu subconsciously looked at Lu Qianshan.

The two looked at each other and saw the worry in each other's hearts.

Their identities should have been exposed!
Madam Lu glanced at Yuwen Heigou.

This person just obviously recognized the identities of these two people, and they were from the capital.

Could it be that this group of people was led here by this person?

But if he brought people here, he should have fled by now. Why is he still staying here? Isn't he afraid that I will kill him first?
"This is……"

Shi Hongzhang and Dugu Di looked at the more than a hundred riders who walked into Yanyu Village with surprise and suspicion on their faces.

Although they did not know the two leading men, based on their experience, they knew that these two men definitely came from extraordinary backgrounds and were of great importance!

This set of armor, paired with a spear, should be the symbol of the Yuwen family.

After the Battle of Pingzhou, the Yuwen family rose overnight and became one of the largest forces among the four major clans, and even in the entire Qian Kingdom.

The reputation of Taiwei Yuwen Mao is at its peak!
