It was a dark and windy night.
A snow-white carrier pigeon flapped its wings and flew to the north.
On the earth.
The three horses galloped along at lightning speed.
"Where is ahead?"
"The most famous mountain in Liaodong is Fengming Mountain."
"Dismount, the pigeons are slowing down."
"good."
The three men jumped off their horses, followed the carrier pigeon with their light skills, and flashed into Fengming Mountain.
This time, Lei Zongliang carried a black box, Cao Jinxing carried a sword wrapped in black cloth, and Zhou Mingrui carried two guns, and they were fully armed.
Fengming Mountain.
The most famous mountain in Liaodong, it is known for its dangers and wonders, and its beautiful scenery.
The mountains are majestic, steep, mysterious and attractive.
But now, as they got closer, the three of them suddenly heard cries coming from somewhere in the mountains, shrill and fierce, adding a bit of eeriness to the beautiful scenery.
It's called "Fengming", but it actually looks more like some kind of vicious bird...
"What's that noise?"
Cao Jinxing listened attentively, and the sound disappeared again. The whole mountain was dead silent, as if what he heard just now was just an illusion.
"I know."
Zhou Mingrui looked at the pigeons in the sky and said in a voice transmission: "Our escort agency often takes this route, and we know more about the stories here. It seems to be related to a general named Nahachu in the Northern Yuan Dynasty. After Taizu destroyed the Yuan Dynasty, Emperor Shundi of the Yuan Dynasty fled north and established the Northern Yuan Dynasty. At that time, Liaodong was still the territory of Yuan general Nahachu, who held a large number of troops. In order to win over Nahachu, Emperor Shundi of the Yuan Dynasty first appointed him as prime minister and then as grand marshal. Nahachu was grateful, so he went south repeatedly to fight against the government troops until the court sent Feng Sheng, a famous general of the founding of the country, to conquer Liao. At that time, Fengming Mountain was still called Lu Mountain, but when Nahachu stationed 200,000 troops to confront the government troops and tried to resist to the death, strange bird calls began to appear in the mountain, like the cry of a phoenix, and the people around began to call this mountain Fengming Mountain. It is said that a phoenix lives in the mountain."
"Phoenix?"
Cao Jinxing asked: "Are there really mythical beasts in this world?"
"Maybe."
Zhou Mingrui thought for a moment and said, "Isn't there a saying that the reason why strange beasts have innate abilities is because they have the blood of divine beasts?"
The carrier pigeon went up the mountain and Cao Jinxing didn't ask any more questions.
——Based on some lazy planning, he doubted whether they would move in things like the Fire Kirin.
It is unlikely that there is a phoenix on this mountain.
If there really were, it would have been slaughtered by the old monsters who wanted to live forever.
Maybe it's some kind of ferocious beast.
The three followed the carrier pigeon all the way up the mountain.
Fengming Mountain has a long history and there are many pavilions and towers on the mountain, but most of them have been abandoned due to fear of the strange and terrifying screams.
The carrier pigeon flew into a place called Yuquan Temple.
Zhou Mingrui was very confident in his martial arts skills, and as soon as he saw that they had arrived at a possible nest, he took the initiative to stay and keep watch for the two men.
The Jiangnan Thunderbolt Hall's martial arts skills were quite good, and with Lei Zongliang's profound spiritual realm, his control over his true energy became increasingly precise. He and Cao Jinxing followed the carrier pigeon into the ancient temple.
The main buildings of Yuquan Temple are arranged on an east-west axis. There are three buildings from east to west: the Heavenly King Hall, the Great Hero Hall, and the Vairocana Hall.
It has been abandoned for quite some time and is now somewhat dilapidated.
The carrier pigeon flew straight into the second main hall.
There were twenty Mongolian warriors guarding outside the hall
There was fire in the hall.
"Another one?"
A hand caught the carrier pigeon.
It was a broad, rough hand covered with calluses. The owner of the hand was dressed in Mongolian clothes, with a burly figure, a curved knife on his waist and a longbow on his back.
After he received the pigeon, he muttered something in Mongolian and went to the mailbox to get a letter, but found nothing there. He was stunned.
"What's wrong? Che Gen."
There was another guard in the main hall, sitting in front of the fire, chopping up tableware to keep warm, wearing a bright red cassock of the Mongolian Vajra sect.
Che Gen said: "The mailbox is empty. Maybe the Snake Mother made a mistake again..."
"Forget it. Normally, it takes half a century for a Golden Flame Snake to become spiritually mature. Now it's only been a little over twenty years. To have such an effect, it's already a good thing that Her Royal Highness the Princess has cultivated it."
"yes."
Hearing Su Ri say this, Che Gen nodded, not taking it seriously, and released the pigeons again. The pigeons began to return to the Wanma Gang's pigeon cages spontaneously.
The two men communicated in Mongolian, which Cao Jinxing and Lei Zongliang could not understand. They could only tell that they were high-ranking Mongolians with extraordinary martial arts skills, and the place they were guarding was naturally an important place, so they waited patiently.
Soon, the loudspeaker in the hall began to sound.
The floor tiles sank, revealing a wide passage.
A young woman in luxurious Mongolian clothes walked out from below. She was not very old, but very tall, with a healthy wheat-colored complexion.
As soon as she appeared, Che Gen, Su Ri and the twenty Mongolian warriors guarding outside the hall all beat their chests with their right hands and bowed in salute.
"Princess Mingzhu!"
"Um."
Princess Mingzhu nodded.
Behind her were two figures in black robes, dressed exactly like Green Ear from the Wanma Gang. Their faces were covered with hats and robes, their pupils were erect, and their eyes were glowing green. They were two snake corpses!
Cao Jinxing didn't take it seriously at first, until he saw the [Ningguang Sword] on the waist of the snake corpse on the right!
Shen Xiang!
Cao Jinxing's pupils shrank.
Lei Zongliang's eyes were focused on the spear carried on the back of the snake corpse on the left.
Zhou Hongru!
Princess Mingzhu said, "A new caravan has arrived, and the number of people in the realm is just right, Chegen."
Che Gen leaned forward: "Princess."
Princess Mingzhu: "Bring ten snakes into the city tomorrow and place them near ."
Che Gen nodded: "Yes."
"Su Ri."
"Princess."
"This is the last time. I will ask the people from the Wanma Gang to take action together. After the mission is accomplished, you will take the Eight Horses of the Wanma Gang and the caravan up the mountain together. Be careful, these guards have firearms. Just in case, take away their muskets first."
"yes."
"In addition, the leader is a master of making firearms in Jiangnan, and my brother can use him. Apart from him, the ordinary people will feed Ah Jin, the twenty-two acquired ones will be feasted, and the other five innate ones will join us... to kill the phoenix!"
The last two words were spoken by Princess Mingzhu with murderous intent!
"yes!"
Su Ri could not hide his excitement: "Phoenix blood is a great tonic, and it is even more beneficial to the Golden Flame Snake Mother. It will definitely make up for the Snake Mother's defects, help the princess and the Khan to annex Tumed, subdue Altan Khan, and unify the grassland! Chahar will be immortal!"
He knelt on one knee respectfully.
Che Gen was also excited. He also knelt on one knee and pounded his chest with his right fist: "Chahar will be immortal!"
Another twenty Mongolian warriors followed suit and knelt on the ground, shouting excitedly: "Chahar will be immortal!"
The sound is deafening and echoes through the sky!
Princess Mingzhu was equally excited as she heard the voice echoing in the sky.
She took a deep breath.
God is above, the bright moment is coming.
She thought secretly in her heart: Father Khan, when my brother leads the Chahar tribal warriors to regain control of Mongolia, we will march south to avenge you!
At this exciting moment.
Suddenly, a stone flew from afar and hit Shen Xiang lightly.
Shen Xiang dodged easily.
Everyone looked up and saw Cao Jinxing's dark shadow flash by. Che Gen and Su Ri were startled and were about to take action, but they never expected that the next moment, the snake corpse Shen Xiang behind the princess suddenly roared and rushed out!
"Princess?"
This was totally unexpected.
The Snake Mother's control has weakened?
"No problem."
Princess Mingzhu said: "This snake corpse has superb martial arts and top-notch willpower, so it is difficult to control. However, with the snake venom and bloodline power suppressing it, it is impossible for it to rebel. I have imposed full martial law at this critical moment. I don't want to see this kind of villain again."
"yes."
Everyone responded in awe.
