Chapter 393 Song Temple was robbed
"Why... let's chase after me?" Qi Chang and Qin Mo stared at each other for a while, and the bold Qi Chang finally came up with such an inappropriate solution.
According to the rules, they were actually not suitable to enter the territory of Song State at this time, because the two of them now have the king's orders, and they are considered to be the regular army of Zhao State temporarily formed. Such a team suddenly entered Song State without the permission of Song State. To be larger, it was an invasion, and to be smaller, it was a diplomatic incident.
Although the relationship between Song and Zhao is pretty good, this kind of thing is more sensitive after all, especially now it is a sensitive period, so this behavior is obviously even more inappropriate.
However, the situation is very obvious now. The target they tracked crossed the Yellow River and had entered the boundary of Song State. If they did not chase, they would not be able to carry out the orders of King Zhao as required. Moreover, King Zhao had already spoken and they would not have to go back if they could not catch up with the Golden Bricks. Therefore, it is obviously impossible to give up the task and go back like this.
So, what about chasing after it?
If you chase after it, it will definitely be difficult to explain in the Song State, especially during this period. But the relationship between the two countries is good. Moreover, a few days ago, Zhao State just sent a group of young monks to Song State to meet with the monks of Song State to form a coalition force to steal the gold bricks of Qin State. Although this matter was a few days ago, if King Zhao was willing to endorse them later, they could be said to be some of the personnel pulled down from the previous team of monks. In this way, this matter can be confused and will not cause any serious consequences.
However, it is easy to fool the state of Song. Whether King Zhao will endorse them is a troublesome question. However, one thing is certain. If they pursue the Song realm, it means that the task is still in progress. As long as the task is not over, their task will not be considered a failure. Even if they chased out of the original planned scope, as long as they can bring back the gold bricks in the end, then all the small problems in the process can be found to be excused.
In other words, when you go back now, you will definitely be punished by King Zhao, but if they chase after him, there will be a glimmer of hope. As long as you can bring back the gold bricks in the end, the previous question will not be a problem.
One is that he will definitely be punished, and the other is that he still has a glimmer of hope. It doesn’t need to be said which one to choose. The reason why I have been confused until now is that everyone is hesitating whether deceiving King Zhao is considered a serious crime. But at this moment, everyone has basically figured it out, so Qi Chang dared to test Qin Mo’s meaning.
Qin Mo actually understands better than Qi Chang. When Qi Chang returns, he will be scolded at most, and then punished him to think about his mistakes behind closed doors and other things. It is impossible to really accept any serious punishment. After all, he is the eldest son of the Qi family, and King Zhao has to consider it. But Qin Mo is sure that he will be unlucky and it must be very serious. If King Zhao cannot punish Qi Chang, he will have to vent his anger. So Qin Mo actually knew for a long time that if he failed this time, he would definitely be very miserable. Death may not be the case, but the outcome may not be better than death.
If he returned to the royal city and reported his life now, Qin Mo could almost see how miserable his fate would be, so as soon as Qi Chang expressed his opinion, he immediately accepted the suggestion.
"That's all."
The two coaches unified their opinions, so there was no need to ask about the opinions of others. The team quickly made adjustments and headed directly to the ferry connecting the border between Song and Zhao. However, this was a cross-border operation after all, and they did not dare to lead too many people. After simplifying the team, they controlled the total number to less than 200.
Although it was a self-decided act of exaggeration, the relationship between the two countries has always been excellent. The border guard of Song State did not take this small army of less than 200 people seriously and let it go. Of course, Qi Chang's gold ingot may have also played a significant role.
There were many people on their side, but Guandu’s boat was very large. These men and horses used two boats to send them over, which was faster than Tianyou and the others.
After the team landed on the south bank of the Yellow River, Qi Chang and Qin Mo immediately led their troops down the river and headed straight to the place where Tianyou and the others crossed the river. Soon, the place where Tianyou and the others went ashore was discovered by hunting dogs, and then everyone began to chase the traces on the ground. Tianyou did not clean up the traces after crossing the river, so it was not too difficult to track them. However, Tianyou and the others rode the spirit cavalry all the way. Although they did not let go of their speed, they were quite fast. Qi Chang and Qin Mo kept track of the targets, and from time to time they would chase the wrong direction, and the speed was faster than Tianyou and the others. As a result, the distance between the two sides did not shrink, but instead showed a tendency to grow bigger and bigger. Until Tianyou and the others stopped in a small town outside the King of Song City.
Originally, everyone thought that Tianyou just wanted to send the bricks back to Qin through Song, but when everyone arrived near the King of Song, Tianyou stopped the team. Because after crossing the Yellow River, he would have to pass by the King of Song, he would have passed by the King of Song, so everyone did not realize that Tianyou's original goal was the King of Song. Although he did say this before, everyone thought that it was just an idea. Who would have thought that Tianyou really planned to do this, and now he really did it.
Because he was worried that the 18 gold bricks he had obtained would be lost again, Bai Bingyu and others did not completely obey Tianyou's arrangements as before, but expressed clear concerns about his plan. Even foreign players such as Zhao Lingyun, who did not care too much about the success or failure of the mission, expressed some disagreements.
Tianyou originally had his own set of ideas, but he was a little hesitant when facing almost unanimous opposition from everyone. It was not that he lost confidence in himself, but that everyone's opinions were different from him. Is it not that he would be bad if he insisted on his own? The disadvantage of being a human being is that he sometimes looks too far behind the scenes, but in some cases this is also an advantage.
After weighing the pros and cons, Tianyou finally chose a compromise plan, which was to divide the team into two, and some of the troops would return to Qin State with the bricks or hide in a safe location. The rest of the people stayed to act according to Tianyou's ideas and led away the possible pursuers. Although they did not see it with their own eyes, Tianyou and others had expected the situation of Qi Chang and Qin Mo chasing into the Song Dynasty. After all, the bricks were stolen, and no country would let go easily.
After a brief discussion, the final team was grouped and determined. Bai Bingyu led the team, and the five sisters of the Bai family evacuated together. At the same time, 18 wolf soldiers were taken away specifically to carry gold bricks, so that the five sisters of the Bai family could take action to concentrate on fighting in the battle. Of course, their main action policy was still to be concealed, and the battle plan was only the last resort to prevent and prepare.
Without these 23 members, Tianyou and their team instantly reduced from 31 people to only 8. Although the number of people has decreased a lot, Tianyou is not too worried. He is not good at frontal attacks, so the overall combat power of the team is actually meaningless to him. In comparison, after the team is streamlined, it will have more advantages in some aspects. Not to mention, at least 8 people will not be as eye-catching as 31 people when they act together.
"Then let's go now." Bai Bingyu asked as he rode on the horse and looked at Tianyou.
"The road map has been given to you, just follow it, and there will usually be no accidents. But if something happens, you can make a decision without having to follow the plan I gave."
"Okay, okay, you just want to worry. Don't forget what we are from. When it comes to marching and fighting, they are not inferior to you at all." Bai Bingqian teased Tianyou, then smiled and turned his horse's head to trot out first.
Bai Bingyu smiled and shook his head, then looked at Tianyou again, "You should be careful, you should not give up. In Ying Ying's eyes, you are more important than the Jin Brick."
Tianyou didn't ask, "What about you in your eyes?" Fortunately, he braked in time at the last moment. Although he and Ying Ying are still unclear and don't know what relationship they have, at least they are in a state where their friends or lovers are not full. If they provoke others in this state, Tianyou always feels a little inappropriate.
After holding back the question to his mouth, Tianyou just nodded. Bai Bingyu then greeted the others one by one before leading the team to leave. The direction they were not Qin.
It has been more than ten days since the national destiny mission began, and it is the most intense moment of the war. Sensitive areas such as the border of Qin and Song must be guarded by heavy troops. Tianyou was not so stupid that he asked Bai Bingyu and the others to fall into the trap. Therefore, the route map given was to first cross the Daqingshan and detour the neutral area, and then take the last time they returned to Qin from the sect and return to Qin from the ancient Huaiyang Road.
After sending Bai Bingyu and the others away, Tianyou led the team out of the village. However, they did not go straight to the King of Song City, but purchased some things first and then crawled into the forest to disguise. When they crawled out of the forest again, they had already turned into a juggling team.
Tianyou had a beard sticking on his face, and deliberately drew his eyes deeper and a bag on his shoulders, dressing like a small businessman. At the back, Xiaomei Qi deliberately tied two tucks on her head, wearing a floral shirt made by rag cloth, and was still carrying her big iron spear made by Tianyou. It looked like a skilled person. Besides being slightly tall, she could tell at a glance that this was a half-grown child, and most people would not have any doubts about it.
Behind were two wolves, both women in their early thirties. After Tianyou helped disguise themselves, they looked like a mountain village woman, which was a thousand miles apart from the disguise in Tang State. However, the two wolves were not empty-handed, but worked together to pull a small cart with two large boxes piled up on the cart. Of course, there were very light debris inside, and the equipment was all in the worries bag. The box was just a prop for displaying appearance.
Hu Qingxuan was wearing a white gauze and a straw hat. She was sickly huddled on the cart and leaned against one of the boxes, covering her quilt. She pretended to cough twice from time to time, as if she was about to be alive. The reason why she had no choice was to arrange this image for her was mainly because this person was too outstanding. Tianyou painted it for a long time and still thought it would cause trouble, so she just asked her to pretend to be sick - an infectious disease. These days, except for monks, everyone is afraid of getting sick. After all, considering the medical environment of the Shenzhou Continent, even a high-ranking official would not dare to bet that he would find a way to save his life.
Pang Dahai was wearing a clean but very worn nude shirt, carrying a pair of loads, and there were many swords, guns, swords and halberds hanging on it at a glance. Zhao Lingyun and Hu Niu each had a big bag, and a pretty good cloth shirt followed the end, but they were all wearing makeup, not for the sake of being more beautiful, but for making them uglier.
In fact, Hu Qingxuan also suggested that she use illusion to help, but Tianyou refused her request.
If the national destiny mission was at the beginning, everyone was not vigilant, so it didn't matter. Now the national destiny mission is in intense times, and it is difficult to guarantee that no masters in the city will open their eyes to check around. It is already difficult for Hu Niu and Hu Qingxuan to hide their demonic aura. As for the illusion... using it is equivalent to seeking death, which is equivalent to telling others "We have problems, come and check us", so they were directly rejected by Tianyou. Of course, sometimes the camouflage technique can still be used to get away with it, but it can't be turned on, especially in crowded places, otherwise the chance of causing trouble will be greater.
Tianyou and their juggling team were both ordinary and special among the crowds, and quickly attracted the attention of some people. However, most people were just curious, not suspicious. After all, there were not many entertainment activities on the Shenzhou Continent, and people would be a little curious when they saw the juggling team, especially those half-aged children, who kept coming over to see their lively.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Tianyou quickly chatted with some people who were also going to the city. Although he was not familiar with the words after a few gossips, he could at least speak. With this foundation, even if someone patrols a little later, Tianyou still had a way to get through it safely.
Originally, it was just a habitual behavior of Tianyou when he got along with passers-by around him, and he didn't really plan to do anything, but unexpectedly, this habitual arrangement came in handy before entering the royal city.
As soon as a group of people arrived near the royal city, the crowd in front suddenly began to riot. You should know that Song State and Zhao State are different. Due to their geographical location, Song State has become the closest country to the Western Regions Continent, and it is also the only way for Western Regions merchants to enter the Shenzhou Continent. The goods brought to the Central Plains by these Western Regions merchants are all the intimidating goods of the Shenzhou Continent, and the things they took away are also of amazing value. This has naturally created the Song State's unique economic environment, making it a relatively wealthy country among the ten countries.
With the human tradition of Shenzhou Continent, if you have money, you will have more life, so the population of Song State is relatively large. In addition, with the developed commerce, the number of migrant workers on the road is very large. In addition, this royal city is the political, economic and cultural center of a country, and the flow of natural people is amazing.
Originally, the gate of the King of Song City had increased the inspection efforts due to the national destiny task, which caused the situation of people entering and leaving the city to be blocked, so many people were stranded at the gate of the city. The sudden commotion made the crowd panic, and many people could see that they were hiding to the roadside, but the people were already very chaotic, and it was impossible to let the road out of the road for a while. Those who fell, were knocked over, were stepped on, and were separated from their families. The adults called the child to cry, which was a lot of chaos.
However, before the crowd had completely dispersed, a strange beast suddenly rushed out of the crowd. Several people who were not in time were knocked out by the tiger-headed and brained strange beast in an instant. The person was already bleeding in the air, and it was probably a bit of danger after landing.
However, the people on the mount were unaware of anything. They didn't even see the people flying out just lowered their heads and rushed hard. The mount under their crotch roared repeatedly, and even bit a passerby blocking the way and bit it into two pieces, causing another scream and cry.
The strange beast was very fast and in the blink of an eye, the crowd broke out, but there were still a large group of people behind it. These people were dressed in various ways, but they were all riding tall horses. Judging from the appearance of this divine horse, they should be all spiritual horses.
The horse team completely ignored the wailing crowd on the ground and stepped past. Fortunately, most of them had already avoided the roadside, but more than a dozen people were still trampled to death and injured. Seeing the horse team running towards them, Tianyou didn't want to care, but suddenly he heard a woman crying, and then heard the child's crying. He turned his head and saw that Ying'er, who was in a cradle, fell in the middle of the road, and the woman was on a wheelbarrow on the side of the road.
Seeing that the horse team in front was approaching, the woman and the couple had no time to rescue. If they didn't care, the child would inevitably be stepped into a meat paste. Tianyou frowned, and many thoughts flashed through his mind, but he immediately made a decision.
Tianyou grabbed the handle on his waist and twitched it violently, and a rope whip that was about meter long was pulled down from his waist. Then he shook out a whip flower like lightning and sucked it at the feet of the leading tiger monster.
The monster reacted quickly, and immediately jumped over the baby when he saw the whip shadow, barely saving the child's life. However, the rider on the mount glared at Tianyou, and suddenly turned into magic in his hand and pulled out a big gun from his waist, and stabbed him in the face of Tianyou, which was to take his life.
Tianyou felt cold in his heart. If he hadn't been concerned about the miserable people around him, he would have wanted to shoot this vicious person on the spot. However, he could not have taken this action. Besides, there are more important things now.
Pretending to have exerted too much force just now, Tianyou fell to the side with the power of the whip, and almost avoided the gun head.
The man riding a tiger was a little stunned when he found that he had not stabbed the target, but he was not interested in fighting, so he put away his big gun and ran away.
The man ran away, but Tianyou was not idle. After he fell to the ground, he immediately rolled out and rolled into the road to catch the child, but found that a horse's hoof was stomping down, so he had to quickly retract his hand and roll back. After avoiding the Pegasus, he thought about going over, and found that the horse's hoof fell down. He tried several times but couldn't get through. Although the riders on the horses behind did not deliberately take his life like the one in front, and even had the intention of avoiding him, they could not control it at this speed. Tianyou was so nervous that he tried several times, but he was still unable to rush over by one of the horses.
Originally, the one who knocked Tianyou was the last horse, but the child might have been killed or the rider deliberately avoided him. He was not noticed, but was scared to tears under the horse's hooves. However, Tianyou had not yet gotten up, and another horse team followed him. It can be seen that the two horse teams were not the same team, because the clothes behind the team were obviously much neat.
Without even having to observe, Tianyou quickly grabbed the child and picked up the child, but before he could run to the side of the road, he saw the horse team coming in front of him.
The horse team had more people this time than before. The road was narrower, and there were people standing on both sides, so the horse team could only run in the middle of the road. This way, the horse team's density was naturally higher. Tianyou stood there and barely avoided the two horses in front and found that he could not dodge. He was hesitating whether to use all his strength to jump out, but suddenly he felt his waist tightening and he left the ground. When he turned his head, he saw that a flag bearer lifted him on the back of the horse.
The man didn't say anything, and didn't even go to see him. He just let the galloping horse move to the edge of the horse team, and then suddenly shouted: "Protect the child" and threw Tianyou out directly.
Although she did not stop the horse and had no arrow speed, the man obviously used tricks when throwing it out. Moreover, her target was a large bush on the side of the road. Even if she hit it, it would at most hurt her hands and face and would not endanger her life. Of course, Tianyou's balance was not that bad. After landing, he ran two steps and stabilized his body. Looking at the team that was moving away, Tianyou thought about it and ran back to Pang Dahai and the others.
Although no one explained it to him, Tianyou had already understood it. The group of people in front should be young talents participating in the national destiny mission, and what Tianyou was reluctant to believe was that this group of people was likely to be the team from their Qin State. As for the pursuers behind... Needless to say, they must be the guards of the Taimiao of Song State.
Although the main direction of Qin's national destiny mission in previous years was not Song, it did not mean that he would not send anyone at all. After all, it was not necessary to simply harass the Song Dynasty Taimiao, and he could force Song Dynasty to leave more people to guard the Taimiao, which indirectly weakened the ability of Song Dynasty to invade the Qin Dynasty Taimiao, which was a good idea to kill one by one. Besides, if conditions permit, harassment could become a real robbery. Anyway, the Qin Dynasty is the same as the other nine countries, and no one would think there were too many gold bricks.
He returned the child to the parents and said goodbye to the couple who were grateful for it. Only then did Tianyou return to Pang Dahai and the others.
Compared to other passers-by, Pang Dahai and others who knew Tianyou's skills were not worried at all. With Tianyou's physical strength, even if these people were queuing up and stepped on him one by one, they would be seriously injured at most, and there was nothing to worry about. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been so calm just now. Of course, they still had to do it. When Tianyou came over, a group of people immediately gathered around and pretended to comfort him nervously.
As the horse team ran away, the crowd gradually returned to order, but the family that had just died had cried and cried. An old man who had been with Tianyou and the others looked at the dead and shook his head helplessly, and finally sighed that things were impermanent. Although the national destiny mission had nothing to do with civilians, there were so many innocent people who were implicated to death in every year. Even these people could not even make the list of casualties in the national destiny mission. In this world, human lives are too worthless.
Since the people in the city had to clean up the bodies, the road was even more blocked. A team of sergeants ran out from here in the middle, but it was already an hour later when Tianyou and the others entered the city. During this period, the situation in the city finally spread.
Tianyou, who had already become a crowd of people around him, soon heard multiple versions of rumors. To sum up, there were roughly three available information. First, Taimiao was robbed. Second, the Qin people came. Third, the King of Song was furious and chopped down the guards of Taimiao.
"Tianyou." Pang Dahai was addicted to robbing gold bricks, but he was actually excited when he heard these news.
Chapter completed!
