Chapter 242 This is a bit serious
Besides, Jing Muyang gave the order halfway out of Chenju City and headed straight for Tianshan.
There is a shortest road from Chenju to Tianshan Mountain, and the fastest journey by horse takes six days. Jing Muyang, despite his injuries, managed to reach the side of Tianshan Mountain after four days. There is no town here, only a small village.
"Your Highness, Qingya is heading for Tianshan and will be at the foot of Tianshan tomorrow." Qingshan came to report after he had just finished organizing the information.
Luoshuang Pavilion does not have many bases in the Northern Frontier, and the route they took was remote and they did not want to be discovered, especially not tracked by Bai Lishang, so they had been out of contact with the outside world for three or four days.
This small village on the side of Tianshan Mountain was a new point established by Qingya to expand his intelligence map before the war last year in order to inquire about the news of Tianshan Holy Land and judge the trend of the martial arts world. Unexpectedly, it would be used so soon.
"Okay, let's take a night's rest and go to Tianshan early tomorrow morning." Jing Muyang and his group of six had traveled day and night and were exhausted. There were only four people left guarding this stronghold, making a total of ten people. It might not be easy to go to Tianshan.
However, Gao Le's advance troops have already reached the foot of the Tianshan Mountains, and Qingya will soon be there, which will definitely attract more attention. No one should pay attention to them at the moment.
The Fourth Prince has also set out with a large group from Xucheng, and they are expected to arrive at Tianshan only two or three hours later than Qingya.
However, these were just Jing Muyang's speculations based on previous situations. He didn't know that many unexpected events had happened in the middle, including his own current situation which was extremely urgent.
"Your Majesty!" Qingmu almost flew back from patrolling outside the village, very anxious, "Your Majesty, a large group of people are coming this way, estimated to be more than a thousand, fully armed, and they seem to be going to besiege Tianshan."
"Thousands of people? What number is displayed?"
"There is no number, just a black flag." Qingmu was very nervous, "Your Majesty, there are too many people on the other side whose identities are unknown. We are afraid that we will be exposed. It is better to leave first."
"Well, let's retreat to the back mountain and observe the situation first." Jing Muyang had just rested for an hour or so and just caught his breath. It was about to get dark. The road on the side of Tianshan Mountain was difficult to travel, and it was even more impossible to go up at night. He couldn't stay in the village, so he could only hide.
As soon as they reached the back hillside, thousands of soldiers and horses rushed in and entered the village in a very orderly manner. After a while of inspection, they set up camp.
The dozen or so households in the village were all put under centralized surveillance. Torches lit up the village, and one could hear the soldiers shouting at them to be obedient, saying they would only borrow the land for use and leave at daybreak.
Jing Muyang and his companions let the horses run away before entering the village. They deliberately hid their traces when entering the village. No one knew they had been there, and the people behind them could not find any trace of them.
"Have you figured out which pair of people they are?" Jing Muyang frowned.
These soldiers were all wearing Lingyinguo's military uniforms, but he couldn't recognize who was leading them.
"Your Highness, there is not even a number on the flag. They are not our people. Moreover, there is no army with black flags in the entire Lingyin." Qingshan reminded from the side.
"Your Highness, I know the man who can lead thousands of troops, but I have never seen this man before. I'm afraid there is something fishy going on." Qinglin added.
"Your Highness, do you want to go down and check out the situation?" Qingmu also looked confused.
This army that suddenly appeared at the foot of Tianshan Mountain, wearing the uniforms of Lingyinguo but without any numbers, looked abnormal no matter how you looked at it.
Jing Muyang's men would never do this. They are definitely not their own people, and they do not belong to any of Ling Yin's teams.
And there is no army in Lingyin Country that they don’t know about, unless it is a private army raised in secret!
"These are probably the Fifth Brother's soldiers, his private soldiers." Jing Muyang finally thought of this. "Their attire and equipment are so neatly planned, and the military department's equipment is very strict. I'm afraid they are soldiers transferred from the upper floor. It seems that the Fifth Brother has been planning this for many years."
"If they are really the Fifth Prince's men, what should we do?"
"If they are really the Fifth Brother's men, we don't need to worry. The White Wolf must be watching from behind. Let's wait and see." Jing Muyang was really not in a hurry. He spread his cloak on the ground. He still needed to rest.
Although this place is halfway up the mountain, they have not left any traces and the people in the village are all there, so no one will come looking for them.
But someone else came looking for him.
Later in the night.
"Prince, there is something unusual." Jing Muyang was awakened by Qingshan.
Jing Muyang looked down the mountain. There were only a few scattered torches in the small village, and the soldiers on guard were all lying on the ground.
At the entrance of the village stood a group of people in white clothes, whispering to each other. Then they dispersed and searched in each tent, and finally carried a person out from one of the tents.
Although the halfway point of the mountain was not far away, I still couldn't see their faces clearly. I could only watch them take away the person they found.
"Your Majesty, he looks like someone from the Tianshan Holy Land."
"Yes, let's go down and take a look."
Jing Muyang and his companions came down from the back mountain. The thousands of people in the camp did not react at all. They sniffed their breath and found that they were still breathing, but they could not be woken up even if they were kicked. They were probably in some kind of coma and would not wake up for several hours.
Jing Muyang looked at the white-clothed people who had already walked far away. He could still see a little light from the torches and said, "Chase them."
It is incredible that thousands of people were knocked over by just a dozen people. No one knows what methods they used.
However, a dozen people are easier to keep an eye on than thousands. If we can catch up with them, then it shouldn't be difficult to go to Tianshan Mountain.
As expected, there is an easy path on the side of Tianshan Mountain. However, it took us almost until dawn to reach the halfway point of the Tianshan Holy Land.
There are two peaks on a big mountain in the Tianshan Holy Land. One peak is where the Holy Lord and the Holy Daughter live, and the other peak is a place for reception and meetings.
Most of the disciples of Tianshan usually guard the mountain gate and live on the mountainside.
There were only a lot of people living in the residential areas on the mountainside. Jing Muyang did not follow them. He just watched them from a distance. They stayed for a while and then carried the person to the top of the mountain.
"Let's go up from the side valley." Jing Muyang led Qingshan and a few others to a side valley.
Originally, he could have just stated his identity and gone up the mountain, but Jing Muyang wanted to take a detour through the valley on that side.
Firstly, he had finally followed her halfway up the mountain and wanted to make a sudden visit. Secondly, from this halfway point he could see a valley on the other side filled with red flowers in full bloom, with a fragrance that was a bit like the scent on Chu Jian's body, which made him want to go over and take a look.
This one looks a bit serious.
When I got closer, I found that there were several women in white clothes moving among the flowers, as if they were collecting dew from the flowers.
One of the women picked a flower and stood beside a stone in the flowers. She seemed to be thinking about something and was very absorbed in it.
Jing Muyang was excited. Wasn’t this woman holding the flowers in a trance the one he had just met?
He took a deep breath of joy and flew away, raising flower petals as he passed. As soon as he landed, he put his arms around her waist and held her in his arms.
"First time meeting you!"
