Starting from the world of Joy of Life

Chapter 74: Guo Baokun: What are you looking at? Just an ordinary guard
"Master Xiao Fan."

Ye Zheng shouted loudly.

This sound was naturally meant for the people around the carriage to hear.

"Alright, you are all my confidants, no need to act." Fan Xian immediately stopped them.

He had an expression that said, 'Why didn't you say so earlier?' and whispered, "Tell me first."

"I have something to ask Sean. I will kidnap Sean in the name of Shi Shan Hu."

Ye Zheng raised an eyebrow after his disguise, "Do you have something to ask? The border is approaching, and time is running out. Aren't you going to kill him?"

Fan Xian paused. This was not the first time that his brother-in-law had to guess his inner thoughts. He did not feel panicked at all. Instead, he pointed at Ye Zheng's eyebrows and said, "Who taught you that? It's almost stinking."

"I didn't ask you for the secret, so don't ask me."

This is a veiled answer.

The border is approaching, and Shangshanhu is probably not far away. The task assigned by His Majesty must be completed. The Inspection Institute will not help, and it is not good to let Sean die in the mission, otherwise it may be difficult to explain when he arrives in Northern Qi.

There are many factors that hinder this.

This mission is difficult.

Ye Zheng nodded. "Okay, what do you need me to do? Let me make it clear first. I won't act rashly. You know, my situation is special. Once my identity is exposed, it will be difficult for me to stay in the delegation."

"Of course, he is protecting me secretly."

Fan Xian had some guesses about his brother-in-law's secret mission.

This time, "kidnapping Sean" and arranging the brother-in-law to be involved also had the meaning of verification.

After taking a deep look at his uncle, Ye Zheng smiled, "You... It's a good thing Ruoruo is different from you. She is very thoughtful."

"Haha." Fan Xian sneered twice, and then said, "Big brother, don't laugh at second brother, we are all the same."

"Okay, second brother, help me prepare a set of your Tiger Guards' clothes and sword, and prepare some disguise materials. Remember, you owe me one again."

"You are really taking advantage of others." Fan Xian ignored his attempt to gain advantage and said, "Don't change your appearance yourself. I will help you. However, if you restore your true form, what about 'Zhao You' then?"

The delegation would ask for a headcount every day, and one more or one less person would not be easily ignored.

Ye Zheng smiled meaningfully, "Hasn't Lord Zhao been in the delegation all along?"

Fan Xian's pupils suddenly shrank.

Somehow, he remembered the guard who came to ask for him that day.

"Don't worry, Lord Zhao is very tight-lipped and has a special status, so I won't say anything. After returning from the mission, this person no longer exists."

After his brother-in-law added something, Fan Xian became even more certain that it was this guard.

The two chatted for a while. Before getting off the carriage, Ye Zheng warned his uncle, "If I take action later and someone asks about my identity, you don't have to hide it. But if they ask why I'm here, you must make up a reason and don't mention His Majesty at all."

Lao Deng, look how good I am to you and how I consider you in everything!
Fan Xian nodded thoughtfully.

……

"Come on!"

"The general is waiting for you in front!"

A period of chaos and disorder.

The imperial guards, tiger guards, and members of the Inspection Bureau...

They all gathered around Fan Xian.

"Sean was kidnapped by Shangshanhu, everyone go after him!"

Following his order, the guards, officials from the Ministry of Rites, and people from the Inspection Institute all dispersed.

Not a single tiger guard left, and there was one more.

"Huh? Who are you?" Gundam was the first to react. He uttered the first question and his hand had already reached the hilt of the knife.

Fan Xian immediately stretched out his hand and stopped him, "This is my man, he has been hiding in the delegation."

Having said that, Gundam kept looking at Ye Zheng.

Without true energy, he doesn’t look like a master.

"Okay, let's go after them too."

Ye Zheng said nothing and followed everyone on their horses.

On a gravel hill, I watched Uncle Fan and Sean fighting.

Ye Zheng expressed his envy in his heart, but he couldn't help spitting out several mouthfuls of blood.

Because he didn't do anything, Gundam became even more suspicious and kept staring at him.

Ye Zheng was also helpless. If your parents didn't give him a signal, he wouldn't dare to move. He suddenly became alert and glanced behind him.

Dressed in a coarse yellow dress and looking like a country girl, Haitang Duoduo arrived as promised to kill Sean.

But his eldest uncle didn't even bother to wink at him, and he was happy not to fight with Haitang Duoduo.

Then, suddenly an arrow attacked!
Fan Xianli looked at Ye Zheng, but just glanced at him without giving any signal.

After all, there is a variable on the field.

Behind the stone wall, Ye Zheng and a group of tiger guards guarded Sean.

"Fan Xian, today I will repay the humiliation I suffered in Kyoto."

Yan Xiaoyi uttered a harsh word from a distance.

Ye Zheng noticed it again.

He glanced behind a pile of rocks not far away.

The old soldier hired by Guo Baokun followed his gaze curiously, but then felt that the man seemed to be just looking at him randomly, perhaps because he was nervous.

After a few breaths, everyone heard a series of violent horse hoofbeats approaching.

Another variable has emerged.

The eldest uncle was really patient. He fought with Shangshanhu and was beaten up by Shangshanhu. When it seemed that he was about to be defeated, Sean did not let him kill him. The eldest uncle also withdrew his eyes from him in time and was defeated and "captured".

Ye Zheng followed suit, but was also defeated and captured.

If he were in his uncle's shoes, he would do the same.

Yan Xiaoyi wants to kill him, but Xiao En doesn't want to kill him. There is also a Haitang Duoduo hiding somewhere in the dark.

He always had to judge the situation and lure Uesugi Tora and Yan Xiaoyi into a fight, then wait for an opportunity to escape.

It’s just that my uncle overestimated Shangshan Hu, or underestimated Yan Xiaoyi.

Yan Xiaoyi had almost killed all of Uesugi Tiger's men.

Fan Xian immediately and decisively sent a signal to Ye Zheng.

"and many more!"

Behind the pile of rocks in the distance, Guo Baokun gave the order to take action, but the fat man led by the veterans reached out and stopped the people behind him in time.

"What for? I'll pay you enough." Guo Baokun said anxiously.

Kill Fan Xian to avenge his father's imprisonment.

Kill Uesugi Tora, gain military merit, and release his father.

"Master, please look at that man. I just noticed that he glanced at where we were hiding."

Guo Baokun looked in the direction of his hand and only glanced at it. "Nothing special, just an ordinary guard. Don't shirk responsibility, I paid him enough!"

"Master, look!"

Guo Baokun looked over again and saw that the guard who had just been moving slowly as if he was about to escape suddenly flashed in front of Yan Xiaoyi's horse.

"Ok?"

Yan Xiaoyi was also frightened, but he reacted quickly. He immediately drew his bow and arrow, aiming at Ye Zheng.

Unexpectedly, Ye Zheng in his sight increased his speed and was only three steps away from him, changing direction twice.

Yan Xiaoyi immediately loosened the stirrup and squeezed his legs against the horse's belly. It was not to spur the horse on. Instead, his body floated away and fell backwards.

And his horse...

"Oh!"

A fist pierced through the horse's head with the speed of lightning.

After the fist was pulled out again like lightning, the horse remained standing for a few breaths, its tail swinging a few times, before it suddenly crashed to the bottom.

Is this... horizontal training?
The leading veteran who held down Guo Baokun, Yan Xiaoyi, Shangshan Hu who was shot in the shoulder, Sean who was hiding behind a stone wall, and Haitang Duoduo who was hiding in the dark, all had doubts in their hearts.

The reason why I am uncertain is that I have not seen Ye Zheng mobilize his true energy.

Yan Xiaoyi suddenly had an idea and thought of a possibility.

"No, you are not..."

He just landed from the air.

"Oh!"

Arriving just a moment later, a slender and powerful hand slapped his chest heavily.
