Chapter 2748 2750 [Catch the thief first, capture the king]

Author: Ji Mobai

After a while, Xiang Nan went on the road alone, preparing to find King Tiedal's tent.

Chai Mu also wanted to send two Qianlong envoys to follow him, but Xiang Nan refused.

"The more people there are, the bigger the target will be. If I look for it myself, it will be less likely to attract attention." Xiang Nan waved his hand and explained, "What's more, the desert is vast. One more person or one less person actually doesn't matter."

Looking for King Tiedal's Tent is like looking for a needle in a haystack. Finding a needle in a haystack by one person is just as difficult as looking for a needle in a haystack with two people.

"In that case, please take care of yourself, Fifth Prince." Chai Mu nodded.

"Don't worry, Mr. Chai, I will be careful." Xiang Nan smiled and then headed to Gongyue City, a large city in the west.

There are a total of three routes from Anhu Mansion in the Western Region to King Tiedal's tent.

One of them was a deliberate detour, taking Death Valley, Icefield Lake, Linghe Icefield, Tongta Icefield... The journey was difficult and bumpy, and the journey was extremely long.

One is from Shuobo to King Tiedal's tent, which only takes a day or two; the other is from Anhu Mansion in the West to King Tiedal's tent, which takes less than five days.

In the play, when Qu Xiaofeng went to King Danchi's tent, he took the first route. From this, it can be seen that King Tiedal actually kept a secret of his granddaughter.

Xiang Nan is going to take the first route now. When the time comes, he will let his second brother Li Chengye take this route, while he and Pei Zhao will take the third route.

…

Xiang Nan changed into the service of a merchant from the Western Regions and tried not to attract attention.

One day later, we arrived at Death Valley from Yanzhi City.

Death Valley is the only way from Yanzhi City to Gongyue City.

Xiang Nan was about to walk through the valley when suddenly there was a sound of fighting in front of him.

He quickly sneaked up and saw that Gu Jian and others were being besieged.

The people who besieged them were none other than Shuo Bo's soldiers.

When Xiang Nan saw it, he was slightly startled.

Chai Mu didn't ask Gu Jian to accompany him on his journey this time. He had already felt strange. Now that he saw Gu Jian appear here, he immediately understood.

Chai Mu must have seen that Xiang Nan was unwilling to use Qu Xiaofeng and was afraid that he would not be able to find King Tiedal's tent, so he sent Gu Jian alone to accompany Qu Xiaofeng.

It can be seen from this that Chai Mu is also a cold-blooded and insidious person. Fortunately, Xiang Nan knew that he was foolishly loyal to the Toyo Dynasty and foolishly loyal to the Holy Emperor, so he still dared to use him.

Otherwise, you should stay as far away as possible to avoid falling into his trap.

Xiang Nan then roared loudly, drew his sword from under his saddle, and rode over.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The shadow of the sword is flying, the sword light is radiating, and each sword can take away a life.

When Shuo Bo soldiers saw it, they immediately attacked Xiang Nan, greatly reducing the pressure on Gu Jian and others.

Facing the siege of Shuo Bo's soldiers, Xiang Nan was not afraid. His long sword flew in the air and he moved the sword like a finger. None of Shuo Bo's soldiers were able to defeat the enemy. They all fell to his sword like grass and grass.

When Gu Jian saw this, he was slightly startled. He didn't expect his cousin's martial arts to be so outstanding.

"Wow~" Qu Xiaofeng was even more surprised.

I always thought that my master's martial arts were the best in the world, but I didn't expect that the strongest among the strongest.

"Come on, kill them all except that woman!" Seeing that Xiang Nan and others were so good at fighting, General Shuobo on the hillside yelled at his soldiers.

Seeing this, Xiang Nan immediately decided to capture the thief first and capture the king first.

He jumped up and jumped more than two feet high. He then landed a little higher on the slope and jumped up another four or five meters.

To him, the steep hillside felt like walking on flat ground.

After a few jumps, Xiang Nan came to General Shuobo.

When General Shuobo saw it, he immediately struck him with his sword.

Xiang Nan swung his sword to hold his sword, then reached out and grabbed him.

…

"Let them stop quickly, otherwise, don't blame me for being rude." Xiang Nan placed the sword across his neck and shouted sternly.

General Shuobo was stunned. He didn't expect that he was not even the enemy of Yihe, and he couldn't help but feel a deep sense of frustration.

"Stop!" he shouted immediately.

Seeing that the general was captured, Shuo Bo's soldiers had no choice but to stop.

"Order your people to put down their weapons and exit Death Valley!" Xiang Nan ordered again.

"Put down your weapons and exit Death Valley!" General Shobo ordered.

Seeing this, Shuobo's soldiers had no choice but to put down their weapons and slowly exit Death Valley.

Seeing that they were far away, Xiang Nan floated down with the general.

Although the hillside was steep and he had brought another person with him, he was still as graceful and elegant as walking on flat ground.

"It's you?!" Qu Xiaofeng was a little surprised when he saw Xiang Nan.

Although Xiang Nan was wearing the clothes of a merchant from the Western Region, she immediately recognized him as Li Chengyin, the fifth prince of the Feng Dynasty.

That day in the King's Palace of Xizhou, he raised the "Blood of the Five Evils" and drank it without blinking an eyebrow. His courage and magnanimity left a very deep impression on her.

"Do you know each other?" Gu Jian asked in surprise. He didn't expect that Xiang Nan and Qu Xiaofeng actually knew each other.

"Miss Adu, it's you~" Xiang Nan nodded to her, then looked at Gu Jian and said, "Destroy the weapons, get on the horse, and let's go!"

Gu Jian nodded, destroyed the weapons that were inconvenient to take away, and took away all the Shuobo people's horses.

As a result, Shuobo had no weapons or horses, and it would be difficult to pursue them again.

…

Xiang Nan then released General Shuobo, but tapped his acupuncture points, making him unable to move for at least twelve hours.

As a result, Shuobo's soldiers had no one to command them and would only form a chaotic mess, making it impossible to catch up with them.

"Let's go!" Xiang Nan got on his horse and quickly left Death Valley.

In fact, because there are many gravels at the bottom of Death Valley, it is easy to hurt the hoofs of horses, so when passing here, pedestrians must dismount to avoid hurting the horses.

But now the situation is urgent, and they have captured a large number of Shobo war horses, so they are not so stingy.

After leaving Death Valley, everyone changed their horses and ran for more than fifty miles before finally heaving a sigh of relief.

"Fifth Prince, thank you very much." Qu Xiaofeng cupped his hands and smiled, "By the way, why are you here? Are you still dressed like this?"

"Oh, I heard that Gongyue City has a lot of gems, so I wanted to go there and buy some, so that I can give them to others in the future." Xiang Nan explained, "Miss Adu, why are you here, and why are you still being besieged?"

"Um...that..." Qu Xiaofeng is not good at lying, and just when he didn't know how to respond, Gu Jian interrupted, "We are going home to visit relatives, and the people who besieged us are sand bandits who want to rob us to see how much goods we have.

.”

Although he didn't know what happened between Xiang Nan and Qu Xiaofeng, but with his intelligence, he decided to make mistakes and not expose Qu Xiaofeng's identity.

"So that's it." Xiang Nan nodded, "Then let's leave quickly, lest they catch up."

Seeing that Xiang Nan didn't ask any further questions, Qu Xiaofeng couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief, but felt a little sorry for him.

After all, someone just saved me, but I still have to lie to others, which is really inappropriate.

Everyone immediately came to Gongyue City and found an inn to stay.
