The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 216

When the innkeeper saw him, he smiled and asked, "Grand Tutor Xu, where are you going today?"

"I'll go to the military camp for one night and then come back."

"Grand Tutor Xu and the General truly have a good relationship."

Xu Tian naturally didn't hear those words, because he had already left the post station when the innkeeper said them.

It wasn't too late yet, and by the time we walked to the border military camp, it would be mealtime.

Having been in Ningcheng for so long, he hadn't had a proper look at the scenery of the border city. Now, as the sun set and yellow sand filled the sky, he couldn't help but think of the line, "The sun sets in the west, a heartbroken traveler is at the ends of the earth."

He's been in this world for so long, it would be a lie to say he doesn't miss the 21st century.

Suddenly, he was lost in his memories and unknowingly walked a long way.

After passing through the Ningcheng city gate checkpoint, the border military camp is not far away.

The city gate of Ningcheng behind him gradually shrank into a small dot, and suddenly a large group of people appeared in front of Xu Tian.

Xu Tian took a small step back, staring intently at them, and asked with a frown, "Do you want silver or something else?"

As he said this, he subconsciously touched his sleeve.

Now, there wasn't a single dagger in his sleeve. He could only frown as he remembered that some time ago, he had habitually placed the dagger under his pillow for self-defense.

At this moment, the group of people in front of Xu Tian sneered.

The leader looked at him coldly and said, "Silver? We don't want silver!"

After saying that, he winked at the people behind him and waved his hand, "All of you, get up there!"

Xu Tian didn't understand why they suddenly wanted to rush up and hit him. He quickly thought of a solution while also wondering who he had offended in recent days.

He felt that he was just farming in Ningcheng, so who could he possibly offend?

Before he could figure it out, the people rushing up pulled out their weapons and were about to shoot him down.

Xu Tian frowned, quickly dodged, and then kicked the man hard!

The kick landed squarely on his knee, and with a cracking sound, the man collapsed to his knees in pain.

Another person attacked from behind. He dodged again, but he couldn't defend against the person on his left. With a single blow, the person struck his head, drawing blood!

Now that they outnumbered him, Xu Tian gradually fell into a disadvantageous position.

Upon seeing Xu Tianhou, who had been subdued, the leader stepped forward and immediately ordered his men to tie him up with ropes in several places.

Xu Tian sighed and asked, "Why did you arrest me? There must be a reason."

"The reason? Naturally, it's because you're in our way!" the man shouted angrily, then ordered his men, "Men, take him away! This time, we'll squeeze him for a good amount of money!"
