"So many refugees!"

Zhou Jun stopped his horse and stood on the cliff and looked at the refugees who were crowded in front of Qintong Pass, as if they were an ant colony, and said with numb scalp.

Chen Hai and his friends walked eastward and saw many refugees stranded on both sides of the road. They could see hunger on the side of the road everywhere. The bandits on both sides of the road were also extremely serious. Most of them were refugees who formed camps as bandits, and even rushed out of the mountain without knowing what was going on, wanting to rob their convoy.

This time, the bandits and bandits were naturally killed in front of Chen Hai and the others, and they had no power to fight back. Whether they surrender or capture, Chen Hai and the others were finally handed over to local prefectures and counties for handling. However, they did not expect that so many refugees would be stranded in front of Qintong Pass. Standing under the high cliff and looking down, they saw refugees as dense as ants colonies, almost filling up the mountains and fields within dozens of miles of the two wings of the road ahead of Qintong Pass.

Chen Hai made a rough estimate in his heart, afraid that millions of refugees would stay in the snow and ice to be hungry.

Chen Hai was inexplicably brought to this other world by the Dragon Emperor Cang Yu. To be honest, he didn't care much about the fate of the people in Yanzhou from the bottom of his heart.

In recent years, the drought in Guanxi was very serious. Not only did the Wuwei army interfere in the military, but the hunger was everywhere. Chen Hai and his friends went east to Yanjing and passed by Tianshui County, Tianxia County, Qintong Mountains and other places. What they saw was the withering villages and the deserted fields.

Chen Hai was also indifferent when he saw the hungry corpses on both sides of the road. At this time, he saw so many refugees gathering, all dressed in rags and yellow faces, and Chen Hai also had a numb scalp.

Now that so many refugees are blocking Qintong Pass, they naturally want to enter Yanjing to escape famine through Qintong Pass.

It is not clear at this time what the disaster was east of Qintongguan, but judging from the reports circulating from all over the country, it must be not easy. The empire naturally could not open the pass, allowing a large number of refugees to crowd around the imperial capital to disrupt the people's livelihood. However, the disaster relief and comforting the people in various places seemed to be going smoothly.

In the construction of the canyon in Qintong Pass, the mountains on both sides are more than 10,000 feet high. It is the only way to enter and exit Yanjing through the Qintong Mountains and is also the most powerful pass in the west of Beijing. Chen Hai and his friends chose a high cliff to climb up and saw that the city walls were more than a hundred meters high embedded between the stone gorges. Not only were the city walls engraved with dense Taoist seals, but the steep walls on both sides were also shining with spirits, and endless Taoist seals were flowing.

Qin Tongguan looks extremely majestic, which also sets off the refugees under the city as small as ants.

No matter how many refugees gather, they cannot be able to break the Qintong Pass, which is dangerous, but refugees cannot gather, and the elite defenders in Qintong Pass dare not violate the world and send troops to drive them away...

"Look at it!" Wu Meng pointed to a certain direction and asked Chen Hai, Zhou Jun and the others to look over.

Wu Meng has already cultivated the six meridians of Xuanyin and is about to enter the late stage of the Spirit-Bi Ling Realm. The six meridians of Xuanyin are connected to the eyes, nose, ears, etc. Each time they cultivate one meridian, they can greatly improve the perception of the six consciousnesses and practice the corresponding six consciousness magical powers.

At this time, Wu Meng had a stronger eye than Chen Hai and Zhou Jun.

Chen Hai destroyed the Fish Seal, a disciple who could increase the perception of the six consciousnesses, and looked at it as Wu Meng pointed out. He saw more than a dozen black-robed men walking in the crowd on a hillside on the eastern foot of the road. Several people looked to them, as if they had noticed their existence long ago.

He is a man in black robe again!

Chen Hai frowned. When they first fought in Yulong Mountain, they saw these black-robed men in the rebellious refugee army. After that, they pretended to be Hexiang Army to attack Chishan City. Three other black-robed men suddenly appeared and exposed their identities, almost causing them to fall into a desperate situation that would never be restored.

Chen Hai did not expect that among the large group of refugees in front of Qintong Pass, he would see these men in black robes again.

The black robes these people wore were all left-sided and short-padded, which was somewhat different from the costumes in Kansai. They were quite special, and they all covered their heads and faces with hoods. Chen Hai was sure that the three-way people should be in the same group, but Chen Hai couldn't figure out what they were and why they were always entangled with refugees?

Moreover, Chen Hai still remembered that in the battle of Chishan City, before Zhang Huaiyu and Li Xianghai led their troops to rescue, three black-robed men led more than a thousand Hexiang troops to retreat south and fled from the north of Chishan City. After that, the cavalry camp blocked the passage from Chishan City to Hechuan Ridge, but no whereabouts of this team of people were found. The team of people should have retreated eastward from Lanchuan County...

After the battle in Chishancheng, Chen Hai also reported the man in black robe to the Protectorate General's Mansion through his uncle Chen Lie. I don't know if the Protectorate General's Mansion paid attention to it. In short, there was no response and feedback.

What exactly do this group of men in black robes want to do and why are they all there?

"The mountains where you black-robed men appear, the refugees nearby seem to be more orderly and organized. It seems that they have made great plans in front of Qintong Pass!" Wu Meng was extremely jealous and soon saw something strange.

Chen Hai also noticed that in front of the mountain where more than a dozen black-robed men appeared, many refugees were wearing simple animal leather armor, and some refugees were on duty under the mountain with bamboo spears and guns...

A large group of refugees gathered. As long as they did not attack the county and plunder the fields, Chen Hai and others had no right to interfere as passenger soldiers on the transit. However, the road to Qintongguan was blocked by refugees, which was the major problem that Chen Hai urgently solved at present.

Chen Hai was about to return to the camp with Zhou Jun and Wu Meng and reported all the reconnaissance they had detected. Seeing how his uncle Chen Lie, the commander Ge Xuanqiao and another deputy envoy, Dong Pan, deal with the problem in front of him, a dark shadow flew out from the direction of Qin Tongguan City, and it was a huge bird with no friends.

A faint golden light flowed from the edge of the giant bird's wings. You can tell from a distance that it is not an ordinary species. There is also a green-armored general riding on the back of the giant bird and flying towards them.

"In front of the tent of General Wuwei of Qintongguan, Tu Ziji, the Wuwei Army, have seen you all, are you going to enter the Wuwei Army of Qintongguan?" The young general wearing green armor flew down from the giant bird and bowed to Chen Hai and others. Perhaps Chen Hai is burly and brave, and it is quite eye-catching that the young general Tu Ziji couldn't help but look at Chen Hai more.

Qintong Pass is located in the hinterland of the Great Yan Empire. It usually has only 10,000 elite guards. The general was awarded the rank of General Wuwei of Du, and was a general under the Imperial Army of the Tiger Ben.

The green-armored general in front of him looked only twenty-five or six years old, and his figure was half shorter than the burly Chen Hai, but he was handsome and handsome. There was a luster like porcelain on the edge of his pupils, forming a faint halo. This is a sign that all the twelve main qi veins have been cultivated and they have reached the perfect state of the Great Zhoutian.

The peak cultivation level of the Pi Ling Realm should be considered to have great strength in the army, but it seems that it should not be qualified to serve as a middle-level general like Su Wu's lieutenant.

However, what attracted Chen Hai even more attention was the blue-black bird with golden light on the edge. Standing there with its wings, it was even taller than the green cunning horse behind them. Standing in front of Chen Hai and the others, the powerful aura revealed by the demonic eyes was like a king, which was even slightly stronger than the green-scale thunder eagle in front of his uncle Chen Lie.

When Yao Xing was in the Yao family, he was devoted to cultivating without caring about the world. Even if he had not removed some of his memories, he was not very familiar with the children of the Tu family, who were also one of the eight tribes of Yanjing. Chen Hai thought to himself that if this bird was the pedestal of the green-armored general Tu Ziji in front of him, and Tu Ziji was young and could serve as a middle-level general, then his status as a Tu family in the thirty-six royal family, even if he was not a legitimate son, was an extremely important figure among the legitimate sons of the legitimate branch.

"Wuwei reported to the tent to inspect Chen Hai before the tent, and met the slaughter captain," Chen Hai said with a politician. In addition to introducing Zhou Jun and Wu Meng behind him, he also checked each other's seals according to the rules. He couldn't help but ask curiously, "How long have so many refugees been blocking in front of Qintong Pass?"

"The more refugees came from autumn, they gathered." Tu Ziji said.

"It's been so long?" Zhou Jun felt extremely surprised, and his tone was raised.

Qintongguan is the main road for Yanjing to connect with the counties in Yanxi. Qintongguan is less than a thousand miles away from Yanjing City. The best-sized green horse and black scale horse can run back and forth twice a day. Such an important pass was blocked by refugees for two or three months!

Although the official letters and documents can be passed on by spiritual birds, the loss was too great for the business and travelers for two or three months. The Qin Tongguan guards or the imperial court actually allowed this situation to happen and did not deal with it decisively. This was really too unexpected to Chen Hai, Zhou Jun and the others.

But thinking about it, there is not enough time, so it is impossible for so many refugees and refugees to gather in front of Qin Tongguan.

"..." Tu Ziji didn't want this embarrassing scene to fall into the eyes of the guests in Xijun. He smiled awkwardly and said, "The refugees are troublesome, and no new decree has been reported in the palace for several months. The officials and officials of the ministries are quarreling about how to deal with these refugees. We can only block the pass and prevent more refugees from pouring into the capital..."

Looking at the reports gathered from all over the country, Chen Hai knew that the prefectures and counties near the capital had been drought and locust plagues in recent years. If the sealing of the city only started two or three months ago, it means that a large number of refugees might have been rushing into the capital. It should be that the capital was overwhelmed. The officials and officials of the various ministries decided to block the passage first, but this also means that the vicinity of Yanjing was almost paralyzed.

But there was no intention in the palace for several months, so what the hell?

There was no decree in the palace for several months. Who did the Hexiang army report to? And whose emperor's order did they come to Yanjing to express their love?

When Chen Hai and the others set out from Hexi County, they never thought that Yanjing would be in a mess.

But no matter what, how to deal with the chaos in Yanjing should be a headache for Ge Xuanqiao, uncle Chen Lie, and others, so Chen Hai could only take the butcher to the camp first.

******************************

Chen Hai and his team's temporary camping site is a Guanyicheng Village a hundred miles away from the refugee gathering area.

Before Wuwei advanced to send troops to arrive, this Guanyicheng Village, which was less than a square foot, was surrounded by tens of thousands of refugees.

Although there were more than a hundred postmen guarding the post camp, they were weak and weak. At that time, Qin Tongguan had not sent troops to relieve the difficulties, so they could only close the city. It was Chen Hai and the others who arrived and drove away the riots.

Chen Hai took the slaughter to the post camp and saw his uncle Chen Lie accompanying Ge Xuanqiao and Dong Pan, the first seat of the Zushi Hall, to stand at the top of the city and looking at the refugees in the nearby mountains and fields.

"The public is so resentful and evil! "

Chen Hai climbed up the city and saw Ge Xuanqiao looking at Qin Tong and saying something with emotion. Uncle Chen Lie and Dong Pan were both frowning, as if he was deeply touched and worried about the simple six words Ge Xuanqiao said.

Chen Hai looked at the direction of Qintongguan City and was blocked by the mountain ridges. He could not see the refugees in front of Qintongguan. He saw that the mountain love was clear and quiet before, and he could not see any evil spirit.

"Mao Ziji pays homage to Uncle Ge!"

The butcher came forward to salute Ge Xuanqiao.

Ge Xuanqiao looked at Tu Ziji carefully and asked hesitantly: "Whose disciple are you?"

"My teacher Chen Xuanzhen knew that Mr. Ge would enter the imperial capital through Qintongguan, so she specifically told Ziji that she should treat Mr. Ge with respect." Mr. Ziji said respectfully.

"Oh, it turns out that you are a disciple in front of the Crazy Dao Sea," Ge Xuanqiao said with emotion as if he remembered something, "I should think that you are a disciple of Crazy Dao. I want Crazy Dao to be free and happy the most, but I owe you the favor of the Tu family. I will probably only accept your Tu family's children to teach Taoism in this life!"
