Speed ​​Pass starts with choosing a hunter

Chapter 246 White Horse Leaving Lingzhou

Huanglong City, Yang Mansion.

"A Yuan, thank you very much."

Yang Fangyu lay weakly on the bed. After a full month of recuperation, he finally woke up.

Yan Hongxiu was massaging Yang Fangyu's calves seriously.

Yang Fangyu had been lying in bed for a month. If it weren't for Yan Hongxiu's careful care, he probably wouldn't have woken up so quickly.

An ordinary person would have suffered muscle atrophy if they had been lying in bed for so long, and this is true for martial artists as well. The reason why Yang Fangyu can still walk is all because of Yan Hongxiu.

I heard that she even found the best massage master in the city to learn from. It is admirable that a daughter of a wealthy family can achieve this.

Bai Yuan first bowed to Yan Hongxiu and said, "Sister-in-law, you have worked hard during this period."

He turned his head and looked at Yang Fangyu who was lying on the bed: "Old Yang, you are finally awake."

Yang Fangyu looked relieved.

He was glad that he had a brother like Bai Yuan.

During the time he was unconscious, if Bai Yuan had not suppressed the demon rebellion in Huanglong Prefecture alone, even if he was injured in the process, his position as the prefect of Huanglong Prefecture, which he had worked so hard to earn, would certainly have been lost.

He left a good reputation but ruined his career. Such shitty things happened too often in Xuanyang.

"Since the matter of Tianxuan Sect is a misunderstanding, my Yang family does have someone who is familiar with Tianxuan Sect and may be able to mediate."

Yang Fangyu has already learned from Yan Hongxiu what happened recently in Huanglong Mansion.

Apart from the previous incident in which the owner of the Soul-Chasing Tower attacked and killed them, the biggest incident was the disappearance of the Jiuzhen Zhenren of the Tianxuan Sect.

Of course, this matter is confidential and only a few people know about it. The fact that Yan Hongxiu can know the cause and effect of it shows how clever her methods are.

Yang Fangyu often says that a family with a virtuous wife is a blessing, but it is not just a simple saying.

In fact, if Yan Xiuhong were not a woman, her achievements might be even greater than they are now.

But even though she is a woman, her strength is enough to be respected by too many people.

Bai Yuan was delighted and did not refuse: "Thank you, Brother Yang."

Although Du Qinghui has stepped forward to stop the Tianxuan Sect, it is easy to hide from the King of Hell but difficult to guard against the little ghosts.

The Tianxuan Sect will certainly not make a big fuss overtly, but they will definitely take a lot of action in private.

If the Yang family were to mediate, at least there would be a lot less trouble.

The reason why Yang Fangyu was willing to do this was, of course, because of Bai Yuan's kindness.

At this time, Yan Hongxiu also spoke up: "My father happens to be familiar with a great elder of the Tianxuan Sect, and he should be able to help say a few words."

Bai Yuan was overjoyed: "Thank you, sister-in-law."

"Thank you, Brother Bai, for your care these days."

Yan Hongxiu spoke with a smile.

Although Bai Yuan seldom visited Yang Fangyu during the time he was in a coma, he actually helped solve Yang Fangyu's troubles in the officialdom.

A gentleman judges by deeds rather than by heart. Yan Hongxiu felt that Bai Yuan was a man worth making friends with.

The Yang family and the Yan family are both large families, and Yang Fangyu and Yan Hongxiu hold high status in the family.

After the two people's operation, the momentum of Tianxuan Sect was indeed weakened a lot.

True Man Jiuzhen originally went to Huanglong Mansion privately, and there was no solid evidence, so he had no legitimate reason to do so.

Moreover, the Tianxuan Sect already had many factions, and in the end, only the branch to which True Man Jiuzhen belonged secretly sent people to investigate.

The pressure on Shenfu Gate was greatly reduced.

"Sister Qiao is about to arrive in Yanzhou?"

Bai Yuan was overjoyed when he saw the letter sent from Yanzhou.

He originally thought that it would take at least a month for Qiaojie to arrive in Yanzhou, but he didn't expect that the time would be much earlier.

The situation in Huanglongfu is relatively stable now, and with Yang Fangyu in charge, there won't be any trouble.

Bai Yuan immediately decided to head south.

"Master, are you going to Yanzhou?"

Yu Hui was a little surprised to hear Bai Yuan's decision, but he immediately understood.

He chuckled and said, "The Sect Master can go ahead. Leave the rest of the sect to me and the other Peak Masters."

"Thank you."

Bai Yuan nodded.

Yu Hui specially brought the best horse in the Shenfu Army, and Bai Yuan left Huanglong Mansion that day.

Yanzhou is located at the southernmost tip of the northern border and has frequent exchanges with the Central Plains, so it is far more prosperous than other states in the northern border.

As an important trade channel between the northern border and the Central Plains, there are many merchants traveling from the south to the north, and it can be said to be a mixed bag.

"Hey, Junior Sister Liang, we've arrived at Yanzhou City."

An old man wearing a sheepskin coat and with disheveled hair was fawning on the old woman beside him.

The old woman ignored the old man and walked straight towards the city gate.

Behind the old woman and the old man, there is a woman with a graceful figure and pretty face. The reason why she is called a woman is because of her bun.

Xuanyang inherited the custom of the previous dynasty and used bun hair to distinguish married women from unmarried women.

It is said that married women in the Central Plains like to do Taoist rituals in the snail shell on their heads in order to show off their beauty. There has always been a saying that they wear pavilions and towers on their heads.

The peony hair style and the heart-shaped bun were all invented by women in the Central Plains.

The woman seemed to be used to traveling around the world. Although she also had her hair tied up, it was just a simple and neat way of doing it with a wooden hairpin. However, she had a more unique charm than those women in the Central Plains.

If it weren't for the hair accessories on her head, no one would be able to tell that she was already middle-aged.

"Qiao Niang, please be careful in everything you do after entering the city."

The old woman spoke slowly.

"Yes, mother-in-law."

This woman was Xiao Qiaoniang who came to Yanzhou from Linzhou.

And this old woman was her master, Liang E.

The old man knew it was Zhou Siming as soon as he saw the white pupils.

Liang E had not originally planned to call Zhou Siming last week, and she did not know where Zhou Siming got the news from, but he followed her to Yanzhou. The reason why Liang E came to Yanzhou was to track down a traitor from the lineage of the demon hunters.

The demon hunter took away something very important.

She must get it back.

The three of them arrived at the gate of Yanzhou city.

A long queue has formed here, all of whom are waiting for the progress.

Although Yanzhou was far away from the battlefield in the north and had hardly been affected by the war, and the monsters and demons in the northern plains had never been seen before, the prefect still conducted strict inspections on people entering the city.

Without a pass issued by the imperial court, it is impossible to enter Yanzhou City.

Liang E came here to track down the traitor. Before finding the person, she naturally did not want to cause trouble, so she had already prepared the pass.

Speaking of which, this pass was also thanks to Liang Siming.

If Liang Siming did not have connections in the Linzhou government, it would not be easy to get the pass.

The three of them waited for an hour before they finally saw the guard at the city gate.

"Is there any document?"

A guard in light armor spoke with a slightly tired tone.

Xiao Qiaoniang handed the document that she had prepared long ago to the guard.

The guard took a quick look and said in surprise: "Are you from Linzhou?"

Linzhou is located in the southernmost part of Xuanyang, ten thousand miles away from Yanzhou.

Even though he had seen all kinds of people as a city gate guard, this was the first time he had seen someone from Linzhou.

However, the pass was not forged, so he would not put up any further obstacle.

A person with poor eyesight cannot be a city gate guard. How could someone who can come to Yanzhou from Linzhou be weak?

If you make things difficult for a young and inexperienced person, you might end up in danger of being killed.

These gangsters are all ruthless characters who live on the edge of a knife. Even if they are officials, they are bound to be ambushed. There is no need to cause trouble.

Xiao Qiaoniang took the pass and said, "Thank you, sir."

Hearing the word "Sir", the guard at the city gate felt refreshed and waved his hand to let Xiao Qiaoniang and the other two pass.

As soon as you walk out of the city gate, the bustling atmosphere hits you.

The streets of Yanzhou City are filled with merchants from all over the world, as well as jugglers performing to sell their wares.

Xiao Qiaoniang was originally a village woman. Even though she stayed in Qinghe for a long time, she had never seen such worldly life.

You can't see such a bustling scene in Linzhou.

In fact, most monster hunters lived in seclusion in the mountains. After she became their apprentice, she seldom went into the city, so she was particularly fascinated.

"Let's find a place to stay first."

Zhou Siming ignored the strange looks from the people around him and continued talking to himself.

Liang E nodded.

Zhou Siming was overjoyed and immediately took Liang E and Xiao Qiaoniang to the best restaurant in Yanzhou.

It is true that monster hunters do not care about worldly affairs, but it is also true that they are rich.

The monster meat obtained from hunting monsters alone is much more abundant than that of an ordinary martial artist.

The restaurant owner's eyes lit up when he looked at the yellow gold ingots. He immediately asked the waiter to arrange a room with the best quality.

Xiao Qiaoniang walked into the room which was more than ten feet in radius and felt it was unreal.

She had never lived in such a good place.

"Qiao Niang, please stay in your room. I will go to the city to check the situation first."

The old woman had just entered the room and she was eager to track down the demon hunter.

Seeing the old woman walk out of the room, Zhou Siming, who was standing at the door, hurriedly followed her.

Xiao Qiaoniang looked at the two people walking down the stairs and shook her head.

Although her master was extremely strict with her and she suffered a lot when she became his disciple, he was also very kind to her.

Perhaps monster hunters live with monsters all year round, so their minds are much simpler than other people.

With Zhou Siming following her, she didn't have to worry about anything happening to Liang E.

Xiao Qiaoniang lay comfortably on the rosewood bed, feeling soft and fluffy, just like sleeping on a cloud.

Life in the mountains is simple, but there are no such good beds.

Fortunately, Xiao Qiaoniang was not a delicate person, so she felt very comfortable there.

Xiao Qiaoniang stayed in the room until sunset.

There is still no sign of Liang E and Zhou Siming returning.

The waiter from the restaurant knocked on the door and brought in several plates of exquisite food.

Xiao Qiaoniang couldn't help but think of the days in the courtyard of Wanjun Peak in Shenfumen. It had been a long time since she had lived the life of a grandmother in a wealthy family with everything provided for her.

She picked up a piece of crystal clear braised beef and put it in her mouth, seriously refusing.

It's far inferior to Yuan Ge'er's craftsmanship.

Xiao Qiaoniang looked at the red glow outside the window.

"I wonder if Brother Yuan received the letter."

However, Lingzhou is a thousand miles away from Yanzhou, and it will take some time even if we get there.

She actually hoped that her master would progress slower so that she would have a chance to meet Yuan Ge'er.

Just as she was daydreaming, there was a knock on the door again.

Xiao Qiaojie showed a puzzled expression.

The shop assistant had just left, why was there someone knocking on the door again?

She walked carefully to the door and slowly pushed it open, and saw a man's face that she had not seen for a long time appear in front of her.

"Sister Qiao, I'm here."
