Another day passed, and on that day, the prefect of Yangzhou mobilized troops to lead the city defense force and the constables to the Xu family.

Faced with the crowded city defense forces, the people from the Tianming Pavilion of the Xu family did not come out to resist.

Captain Lin, with the constable and the patrolmen, carefully searched the entire Xu family.

Outside the Xu family's gate, a beggar and a ragged sloppy young man were sitting at the door and talking about something.

The two of them dressed in dress and their unruly manner quickly became a beautiful landscape on the street.

"Eighth Prince, why are you sure that the people from Tianming Pavilion will definitely not fight against the city defense force?"

The middle-aged beggar, Lian Xing, looked at the constables who were searching from afar, and asked Li Chengfengdao on the side.

Li Chengfeng nodded, picked up the roast chicken at hand and started to tear it open and chew it.

"East and north, two Turkic sides have just been beaten, and it is not enough to start the national war in the short term."

"If you start a war with the city defense force, it will be easy to alarm the corps near Yangzhou."

"At that time, no matter how strong a person in the Dao Realm is, he will be consumed to death by force and continuous crossbows!"

"So since ancient times, there has been only the legend of assassins taking people's heads from them, and there has never been a myth of them getting out!"

"After all, well-trained soldiers are different from those in the world. The previous White Lotus Sect is an example in front of you."

Li Chengfeng swallowed the whole roast chicken in big mouthfuls, and then grabbed a handful of dust from his feet and wiped his hands.

He didn't say anything about it, the people in Tianming Pavilion were indeed unwilling to have conflicts with the officers and soldiers.

However, once they are surrounded, it is inevitable that the people from Tianming Pavilion will be anxious to jump over the wall and lead Fang Zun to break through.

This is like a modern infantry regiment attacking a group of martial arts masters.

No matter how powerful a martial arts master is, he will never be able to resist cannons and bullets, but there will definitely be survivors.

In this way, although the people from Tianming Pavilion can be kept, Fang Zun may be taken away.

"I understand the truth, but why do I have to come here?" Lian Xing was still a little puzzled.

At this time, they shouldn’t plan their next actions. Now coming to the Xu family will only increase their danger!

"Yes, I really shouldn't have come here. There is another more important thing I want to do!"

"In this way, no one will stare at Yangzhou, so you have to stay here and stare at the Xu family's every move."

"I want to go outside Yangzhou City in person and find a way to stop the two Fang Zuns from entering the city!"

Li Chengfeng stood up and left near the gate of Xu Mansion, leaving only Lian Xing, who was messy in the wind.

At noon that day, under the intentional cover of the bad guy, Li Chengfeng quietly left Yangzhou City and went straight to Hezhou not far away.

It only takes about one day to walk on the waterway from Hezhou to Yangzhou.

Basically all merchant ships heading to Yangzhou have to pass here, which is the only way for Tianming Pavilion to transport Fang Zun.

According to the news about the bad guys, people from Tianming Pavilion will be able to arrive in Hezhou in two days.

If Fang Zun can be stolen or snatched from this position, it will be greatly delayed waiting for reinforcements to arrive.

It will take some time for reinforcements to arrive. He will try any way to get time if he has the opportunity to win time at this critical time!

...

In the Xu family secret room on the other side, Tianxuan was frowning at the letter in her hand.

The content of the letter is very simple, because it is constantly harassed by unknown forces, and the time for transporting Fang Zun may be delayed for three days later.

Combined with the recent abnormality in the city, a deep sense of anxiety arose in his heart.

The affairs of the Twelve Fang Zuns are related to the next major plan of Tianming Pavilion, and they can only succeed and not fail.

"Young master, it seems that it was done by those mice!"

"Do you want me to go there and protect them?" said the old man bent over Tianxuan.

"Okay, you leave the city immediately. Remember to ensure Fang Zun's safety!" Tianxuan nodded and said.

"Yes, I'll go now!" The old man bowed slightly and left the secret room.

Watching the old man walk out of the secret room, Tianxuan pinched the envelope in his hand into a ball of paper and whispered.

“It’s interesting to have one link after another!”

...

When Li Chengfeng arrived in Hezhou it was already evening that day.

The bad guy's small flag officer met Li Chengfeng at the dock early.

"The bad guy from Hezhou Xiaoqiu has met the eighth prince in Linxu!" The man politely bowed.

"No need to be polite, I believe you know the purpose of my visit."

"How are their situation now? How are Hezhou's preparations?" Li Chengfeng waved his hand.

Lin Xu was stunned for a moment. He didn't expect that the eighth prince was so decisive.

"The news came from Lord General Banner that more than a hundred casualties were killed or injured and slightly stopped their speed."

"But there seems to be additional personnel from Tianming Pavilion. The thing may return to Hezhou in the next two days!"

"There are only 100 bad people who can be mobilized on our side, and 3,000 officers and soldiers. I am willing to obey the command of the Eighth Prince!"

Linxu did not dare to slack off at all, so he quickly conveyed all the information Li Chengfeng wanted to know.

Li Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the situation was slightly better than he thought.

Now, while the Taoist powerhouse is still in Yangzhou, he is ready to give it a try and snatch Fang Zun from the Tianming Pavilion caravan.

Only in this way can it be truly a one-time solution. No matter when reinforcements arrive, the core of the problem is the twelve-sided masters.

The two left the shore one after another and walked into Hezhou Prefecture.

Li Chengfeng took out the map Linxu gave him, and wrote various marks on it with pen and ink.

"A thousand officers and soldiers showed the two sides outside the city separately. The bad people were attracted, and there was only one chance!"

...

Under an orderly planning, time passed quickly.

At noon on the third day, he rode his horse toward Hezhou and galloped towards Hezhou, stopping not far from the city gate.

"The Eighth Prince, Lord General Banner has heard news that the people from Tianming Pavilion will be outside Hezhou City soon." Linxu hurriedly reported to Li Chengfenghui.

"Okay, go to the hill on the left to take all the bad guys to follow my orders!"

"The city defense force is ready. You lead the Tianming Pavilion to the trap. I will lead the troops to rush!" Li Chengfeng nodded.

"Yes!" Linxu rode his horse to the mountain bag on the left side of Hezhou. There were hundreds of bad people with different levels of status behind the mountain bag.

They were waiting here early, and they didn't even know what the purpose of this operation was.

However, they knew that everything was for the Tang Dynasty.

This... is enough!

Li Chengfeng came to the hillside on the right. He put on a golden armor, and behind him were a thousand armored soldiers wearing strong and sharp armor.

A layer of sweat oozed out of his palms, and he was not sure.

However, the Tianming Pavilion caravan was attacked by bad people all the way, and there was no Dao Realm with strength to crush it. It was a perfect opportunity.

The sound of horse hooves sounded in the distance, and everyone tensed their hearts.
