Keyboard Immortal Chapter 1001: Unexpected acquaintance
In the next two days, Sang Hong went to the Prefect’s Mansion and the Prince Yan’s Mansion from time to time to show his face, expressing his concern and sympathy for his colleagues.
But what he really wanted him to do was shoved down by him skillfully.
On the third day, the mission’s large ship officially set sail to continue the scheduled journey.
As soon as there is time on the way, Zaan finds Daji as his model, practicing painting skills according to the method in “A Thousand People”.
Unfortunately, no matter what Zaun tried, he never got a single Rage Point from her.
It made him even wonder if the last bit of anger was an illusion.
The good news is that his drawing skills have grown visibly.
He is now a practitioner after all, and his control and use of power is by no means comparable to that of ordinary people, and his powerful spiritual power allows him to learn things with half the effort.
From the beginning, I painted Daji as a patient with Down syndrome, and now I can barely draw a seven-eighth portrait.
But every time Zaan looks at the real Daji and compares the painting, he can’t help but sigh that no matter how skilled the painting is, it may be difficult to depict her true beauty.
The ship traveled north for a while, then the mission went ashore and rode west.
Yunzhong County is located in the northwest and has no direct waterway.
After walking westward for a long time, I finally entered the territory of Yunzhong County.
Unlike other counties, Yunzhong County is vast and sparsely populated, and its area is several times larger than that of several counties in the south combined.
The scenery here is very different from before. First, I passed a vast Gobi desert. It was really desolate and only stones, not to mention trees, even grass was rarely seen.
Fortunately, the group were all elites from the DPRK, and the practitioners were in good health. In addition, there was a guide sent by the local government to lead the way. Although the journey was hard, there was no danger.
The only small episode is that they encountered a group of unsightly horse thieves. Presumably this place is too poor, forcing them to take the risk. They came to sneak attack at night, trying to loot a batch of supplies from the team.
In the end, they did not expect that this group of officers and soldiers were different from ordinary officers and soldiers. Zuan and Sang Hong did not take any action. Gao Ying and Pei You took the Yulin army to three and five to eliminate them. It’s not addicting, after all, it has been out for so long, and they finally have a place to play. These are all military exploits.
Only Sang Hong held the weapons of those horse thieves thoughtfully afterwards, because many of them were standard weapons of the official army.
He discussed with Zaun and concluded that either the horse thieves had raided a small army of officers and looted the weapons, or someone had resold the weapons.
If it’s the latter, the problem on Yunzhong County’s side is bigger.
But the two of them also know that it is useless for them to worry about these things now, and they can only go to Yunzhong County to investigate slowly.
After leaving the Great Gobi, the scenery behind is not so desolate, and you can encounter some scattered small towns from time to time along the way.
Continue to the west, grasslands, valleys, etc. appear in front of you. Of course, in winter, the grasslands are already dry, and there is white snow hanging everywhere.
Most of the embassies are from the capital, and they have never seen the scenery here, but they all find it novel and interesting.
Even Sang Hong often admires the beauty of the scenery here. Along the way, he introduced to everyone that these places were the territory of the demon clan hundreds of years ago. It has become the paradise of the human race, and the tone is full of pride.
Zuan didn’t know that there was such a layer of origin. Looking at the boundless world, he wondered if the demon clan were really willing to lose this fertile soil forever.
Gao Ying and Pei You encouraged Zu An to compose a poem from time to time. The two had tasted the sweetness in the capital before, and they thought about adding their name to the new poem, which is really famous for the ages.
Zuan rejected them without hesitation. They were all big men, and they were all too familiar with them. Who would they pretend to be?
He is now focusing all his energy on improving his painting skills, taking Daji to the field to sketch from time to time while he is camping.
I don’t know that the beauty of heaven and earth and the beauty of Daji have inspired him from time to time. He feels that his painting skills have improved by leaps and bounds, and it seems that he has almost reached the requirements of learning “One Side of a Thousand People”.
After another half a month, a group of people finally came to Cloud City.
What I saw along the way were all small towns, and the towering city walls were seen from a distance, and everyone was not used to it at first.
Looking at the scale of Cloud City, it is much larger than the previous Yi City.
However, if you think about it, you can understand that Yunzhong County is rich in primeval stones. It is truly a wealthy country. At the same time, it is the political, economic, and military center of the vast northwest. It is naturally prosperous and majestic.
The officials of Yunzhong County had already received the news, and they were greeted outside the city one after another.
“Welcome to the Imperial Commissioner!”
There are three people at the head, the middle one is Zuo Su, the governor of Yunzhong County. Zuan thought about the big belly of this guy, very similar to some typical images of corrupt officials in previous lives.
However, his attention quickly turned to the mustache standing next to him. He was tall and tall, with sharp eyebrows, but the delicate mustache, fingernails, and eyebrows were obviously passed through. Elaborately groomed, although the whole person can be called elegant and handsome, it always gives people a greasy feeling.
Zuan paid attention to him not because he was interested in men, but because he had met this man in the valley outside Mingyue City. At that time, he only knew that it was Yu Yanluo’s younger brother-in-law, Master Jian. specific identity.
It turns out that he is the acting governor of Yunzhong County, Jian Taiding!
Yunzhong County is located in the northwest and is often harassed by monsters. Like other counties, the military is in charge of the military commander. For example, Yangsheng in Yi County in front, but Yunzhong County is a higher-level governor. government.
The governor of Yunzhong County, Jian Yanyou, is responsible for guarding the security of Yunzhong County on weekdays, and at the same time defending against the monsters intruding on the border.
After the disappearance of Duke Yunzhong, his younger brother, Jian Taiding, who was originally the governor of the governor’s office, temporarily assumed the post of acting governor.
Zuan thought of such a person, who came to Mingyue City quietly, and did not even alert the local officials of Mingyue City and Mingyue Duke Chu Zhongtian.
When I saw him for the first time, my cultivation base was still very low and I couldn’t see anything at all. Now I look carefully, the other party’s aura is restrained, and his eyes are full of light, which seems to be the strength of a grandmaster.
The emperor really looked down on him, and even sent him here to deal with the Jian family. Although Sang Hong was an imperial envoy, he was only eighth-rank. It’s him!
Thinking of this, Zu An has to despise Chu Zhongtian, who is also a duke. Look at how majestic the Duke of Yunzhong is, and one of his younger brothers is a grandmaster.
However, Chu Chuyan seemed to have told him back then that Chu Zhongtian was seriously injured and his realm fell, otherwise he would not have been bullied like that by the imperial court.
With Sang Hong standing in front of him, he doesn’t have to socialize much, just smile and nod.
However, through their mutual introduction, Zaan turned his attention to another square-faced, dignified middle-aged man, Pei Shao, the city lord of Cloud City.
It’s not a matter of official position. The key is that his surname is Pei. Judging from the enthusiasm of Pei You and him, it is obvious that he is the father of Pei Mianman who Pei You mentioned before.
“Da Manman, I’m finally going to see you.” Looking at Cloud City in the distance, Zaan’s eyes became particularly eager. Since the last time they parted, he has lost each other’s news for a long time.
The envoy team was greeted by many officials and entered the city. They were led by a special person and settled in the hotel. As for the other officials, they dispersed separately. In the evening, a welcome dinner will be prepared at the county governor’s office.
Sang Hong quickly summoned Zaan privately: “I just met Jian Taiding, what is your impression of him?”
“This person is not a sharp-edged man. He is clearly a master, but he stands at the head of the county guard. If he is not really loyal to the court and dare not go beyond it, he is a person who hides a great misfortune. “Zuan replied, recalling what he had just seen.
“Hey, that’s what I thought too.” Sang Hong’s eyes were full of worry, “I don’t know if Gold Medal 11 can handle him. I just asked Xiao Jianren, but he didn’t even know if he asked three questions. No gold medal eleven to Yunzhong County.”
“I think it should be there.” Zaan sneered, “By the way, can you contact the local gold medal embroidery messenger? If someone joins forces, it must be much easier.”
Sang Hong shook his head: “I asked Xiao Jianren, there are no other gold medal embroidered messengers in Yunzhong County, because only the feudal kingdom can have a gold medal in command. The situation here in Yunzhong County is special, and no gold medal is arranged. “
Zu Anxin thinks it seems that the emperor is more worried about the chaos of the royal family.
The two discussed it for a while, and Zaan took the opportunity to go out and visit Yunzhong County to familiarize himself with the environment.
Sang Hong nodded: “My goal is too big, we are open and dark, I am here to attract everyone’s attention, you can go and investigate the case secretly.”
Zuan looked strange. He went out today mainly to see Pei Mianman.
Because of Sang Qian, he couldn’t tell the truth, so he could only answer vaguely.
From the lodge, Zaun walked down a remote alley, and his appearance soon changed drastically.
After this way of practice, although he still can’t change into a specific person’s appearance, it is not difficult to use thousands of people to change his appearance a little, so that he doesn’t need to wear before The man–leather mask.
The City Lord’s Mansion is easy to find. Seeing the big word Pei Mansion at the gate, Zaan becomes more and more excited.
Of course, it’s impossible to go through the main entrance with his current identity. He circled around, found a weak point in defense, and flew in quietly.
With Yu Cong opening a perspective map, Ming Jingfeitai concealing the fluctuation of vitality, and teleportation skills such as gale, although the City Lord’s Mansion is heavily guarded, it is almost a fake in front of him.
Zuan was looking for where Pei Mianman’s room was. Suddenly, Pei Shao’s voice came from the corridor in the distance: “The prince has come from a long way, but I didn’t go to greet him before. It’s really negligent.”
“Prince?” Zaan narrowed his eyes, as if he had met an old acquaintance.
