Start from the thief

Chapter 577 Return to Jianmen

"You carry the load, I lead the horse, we see the sunrise and welcome the sunset!"

Zhao Yushu walked and sang as if no one was around, attracting the attention of passers-by. However, when they saw that he was carrying a corpse, the timid ones screamed and ran away, while the brave ones did not dare to step forward to stop them, but hurriedly looked for the nearest Wu Hou officers to arrest him.

But Zhao Yushu was a great cultivator of the seventh level after all. He only needed to release a little bit of his spiritual power, and the officers' eyes and ears suddenly became useless, and they laughed it off and went home.

At my current pace, if I don't sleep or rest, I can reach Jianmen Pass in about two days and two nights.

Zhao Yushu couldn't explain why he didn't dig a pit on the spot in Shengci Temple to bury the unfortunate master and disciple. After all, so many people were already buried there.

But he just wanted to take these two monks, who had almost no connection with him, to Jianmen Pass, to Songzhou, and even to Tubo.

Look at what people like you have done to the world.

Look at people like you, how many people have been killed by your self-righteous behavior.

Look at people like you. After you die, only your enemies will collect your bodies.

Zhao Yushu continued singing, without using any fleeting moves or thunder steps, just walking towards Jianmen Pass step by step.

Jianmen Pass had already been in chaos.

All non-military personnel, whether civilians or caravans, were expelled from the pass. The Tang people were better off, at least they could freely choose to go south to Yizhou or north to Chang'an. The foreigners were not so lucky and were all thrown out of the north gate of Jianmen Pass.

At this point, Jianmen Pass will become a pure military fortress, the last barrier of Yizhou.

Li Qi eats and lives on the city wall.

He was looking towards the north almost every moment, hoping to get news from Chang'an, but his scouts could only reach Songzhou.

Strangely, no trace of the Liao people has been found until now.

Are they going to attack Chang'an directly?

Chang'an is a thousand-year-old capital occupying a strategic location in Guanzhong. In addition, Li Huan was timid and withdrew almost half of the Tang Dynasty's military forces to guard Chang'an City. How could a mere tens of thousands of Liao troops possibly defeat it? Even if Tubo was added, it would not be resolved in a short time.

If you want to besiege the city, that would be even more ridiculous. Chang'an has stored at least more than a year's worth of food. What can you use to besiege it with just a few tens of thousands of soldiers?

Li Qi rubbed his eyebrows, and couldn't figure out what the 30,000 Liao soldiers were doing. They couldn't really just go to Jiangnan.

Outside Jianmen Pass, Ye Ruduoji was tied to a big tree. It was not that this strange army was going to set up camp, but that they had a dispute among themselves.

"Young Master, you two are both gods. You brought us, young and old, to stop this nobleman from Tibet. I am very impressed. You said you want to use him to exchange for great wealth, and I am also very happy."

The old ghost coughed a few times. Beside him were a fat woman and a smiling little girl.

"But now that we have come so far and the enemy troops are getting bigger and bigger, where are we going? Can you two give us a definite answer so that we can rest assured?"

Fu Yun was about to draw his sword immediately. He had long wanted to kill these troublemakers, but Gao Xu stopped him.

"What the old man said makes sense. We are all in the same boat, so we should make things clear. You are all from the Central Plains, not those rough guys from the Western Regions, so you should know."

Gao Xu pointed at Duoji who was tied up like a dumpling behind him and said, "Everyone, you only know that this person is a nobleman from Tubo, but do you know how noble he is?"

The killers were all wandering around, so how could they know all this? They could only pretend not to hear.

Gao Xu chuckled: "Tubosa is divided into five parts, you can think of it as our Tang Dynasty is divided into five regions, such as Jiangnan Road and Jiannan Road. This kid's father is the leader of one of them."

After these words were spoken, several villains, even those who were all risking their lives on the edge of a knife, could not help but shudder.

"Don't worry, it's not over yet. We encountered so many defeated troops on the road. I'm sure you all know where they were defeated."

"In Songzhou, the Tibetans invaded. That's why I thought that you two are gods. If you encounter trouble, you can just walk away. But we are all mortals. If we encounter the Tibetan army, we can't escape even if we have ten legs."

Gao Xu laughed loudly: "What we want is to encounter the Tubo army! The Tubo's vanguard general this time is this kid's father. He is the only precious son like him. Everyone, think carefully, how much can he exchange for?"

Gao Xu was trying to fool people, or it could be said that it was not really a lie at all, because every word he said was the truth. These truths completely broke through the psychological defenses of this group of desperate criminals, and there was a light in everyone's eyes.

"Brother Gao."

After the others left, Fu Yun quietly pulled Gao Xu aside and asked, "Are you really planning to exchange Doggie for money?"

"money?"

Gao Xu smiled coldly: "If we don't use this precious treasure to make Tubo suffer a big setback, how can we be worthy of Brother Zhao's trust in us? Don't worry, brother, leave it to me."

Gao Xu patted Fu Yun on the shoulder and made a solemn promise, but their conversation did not avoid Doji who was tied up nearby.

Watching the two people walk away, Doji's mind raced. The other party knew his identity and wanted to use his identity to threaten his father. He must not let them succeed.

Doji gritted his teeth. As the future master of Ye Ru, and even the master of the plateau, he could make necessary sacrifices for Ye Ru and Tubo.

Doji looked at the ugly man in the distance who never took his eyes off him. Seeing Doji's eyes, the man licked his lips, showing his rotten teeth and smiled.

Doji's mouth was blocked, but he still curved his eyebrows and revealed a smile.

Zhao Yushu finally arrived outside Jianmen Pass, but a team of armored soldiers holding spears stopped him outside the gate.

"Please inform Li Qi. If he is here, tell him that Mr. Zhao has arrived and help him defend the city."

In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, Zhao Yushu released his spiritual power while speaking, which directly shocked the group of soldiers.

"Wait a moment, sir."

A soldier hurried to report. Of course, he could not see Li Qi directly. After passing the message through layers of people, Li Qi did not come, and Xue Xian rushed out on horseback.

"What should I call you? Brother Bai? Or Mr. Liu?"

"If you don't mind, just call me Brother Zhao."

"What if you dislike it?"

"Then you take this heavy body over to Li Qi and I will leave first."

Xue Xian grinned and jumped off his horse: "Come in, Lord Li may need you to talk to him for a few words."

Zhao Yushu handed King Kong's body to the panicked soldiers who hurriedly took it. "Hold it for me for now. If there is anything that can preserve it, use it first."

Xue Xian nodded and asked them to do as he was told. Several soldiers hurriedly carried King Kong's body away.

"You can bring it if you want, why bring this filthy thing?"

A white lotus was taken out by Zhao Yushu.

Xue Xian suddenly had the urge to kneel down on the spot, but Zhao Yushu held him up with one hand.

"This is?"

"The Tibetans who came to Yizhou this time basically wiped out both the Tantric and Bon sects."
