The First Tyrant of Daxia

Chapter 2438: Capturing the Messenger

"no!"

Ping Jianlou's mind was impulsive, but he quickly calmed down.

"We can't get any information from the Royal City, which means someone in the Royal City is trying to block the information. In other words, there are enemies watching this place!"

Thinking of this, Ping Jianlou couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

It seems that their situation is not that optimistic, but rather there is a sense of precariousness.

Ping Jianlou forced himself to calm down: "Wait a little longer, those who were sent out to intercept the news might bring some good news."

He comforted himself in this way.

After failing to get any news about Qin Yun, Pingjian Tower sent people to the places that must be passed to the Royal City to intercept the news sent to the Royal City, but there has been no results so far.

Just as I was thinking about it, I heard hurried footsteps outside the tent.

"General, we caught the messenger!" a breathless voice shouted outside the tent.

"it is good!"

Ping Jianlou was overjoyed and quickly opened the tent. "Quick, take me over to have a look!"

At that moment, the team leader led Ping Jianlou and ran all the way to the foot of a mountain valley.

At the foot of the mountain, a small team was guarding four agile messengers with serious expressions. At this time, the four messengers were tied up.

"General!"

"Fortunately, we have accomplished our mission and captured these guys!"

Ping Jianlou immediately praised them generously, and then turned his gaze to the four messengers.

"Whose subordinates are you?"

The four messengers were also tough. They turned their heads away and said, "We won't tell anyone!"

Ping Jianlou's eyes were filled with anger: "I advise you to tell the truth and answer whatever I ask. Otherwise, you will die miserably!"

"We are not afraid of death!"

The four messengers were all stubborn.

Their families were being held by their superiors, and they dared not reveal the information to their superiors, because if they did, their families would be dead.

A hint of murderous intent flashed in Ping Jianlou's eyes. He drew his sword and imitated Qin Yun, killing one of the messengers, and blood splattered.

"This is the fate of those who refuse to cooperate!" Ping Jianlou said coldly.

The remaining three messengers were so frightened that their faces turned pale, but when they thought of their families still being held in their hands, they gritted their teeth and refused to tell anything.

Ping Jianlou angrily hacked another messenger to death, but the remaining two messengers looked even worse and still had no intention of saying anything.

"Kill them all!"

Ping Jianlou wiped the sword clean with some annoyance.

He knew that these soldiers would not tell anyone no matter what, but he couldn't let them go, otherwise the enemy would know that he had been alerted.

The soldiers had to do the job and kill the remaining two messengers.

Just when Ping Jianlou was feeling depressed, a soldier suddenly said, "General, there is a letter in their package!"

"what?!"

Ping Jianlou suddenly felt as if a new light had suddenly appeared in his eyes. He quickly pushed the soldiers away and looked at one of the messengers.

When Ping Jianlou saw the letter, he took a deep breath and his scalp felt numb.

Because the letter was actually sewn into the messenger's belly. If his soldiers had not cut his stomach, the parchment letter would probably have rotted along with the messenger's body.

"Hurry! Dig it out! Don't tear the parchment letter!" Ping Jianlou said with rapid breathing. He had a feeling that the envelope inside might be of great importance.

Ping Jianlou said nervously: "Pay attention to the surroundings and check if there are any more enemies!"

"Yes!"

The rest of the soldiers quickly dispersed and watched the movements around them vigilantly.

However, just as Ping Jianlou was nervously digging out the sheepskin letter from the messenger's belly, two hurried footsteps suddenly sounded.

Pingjianlou, which was already nervous, suddenly became even more frightened and looked around vigilantly.

"Who? Come out!"

Ping Jianlou's hand slowly reached for the hilt of the knife, his eyes narrowed slightly, and his murderous intent was evident.

"I didn't expect to meet you here! That's great!"

A somewhat surprised voice suddenly sounded.

Ping Jianlou was stunned for a moment, because the voice seemed familiar, he seemed to have heard it somewhere.

Two figures suddenly jumped out of the forest, which made Ping Jianlou suddenly alert.

But when he saw the face of one of them clearly, Ping Jianlou's nervous expression suddenly relaxed.

"Lu Bai, why are you here? And this... old guy who looks like he's been cooked, who is he?" Ping Jianlou's expression was full of surprise, but his eyes when he looked at Chi Yun were a little strange.

"Cooked old guy?!"

Veins bulged on Chi Yun's forehead, and the next moment his figure disappeared in a flash.

Ping Jianlou looked horrified, and before he could react, a huge fist hit him in the eye and knocked him away.

"boom!"

Pingjian Tower turned into an upside-down onion.

Lu Bai hurriedly said, "Senior Chi Yun, please stop. General Ping didn't mean what he said, so please show some mercy for the sake of your majesty!"

"Humph!"

Chi Yun crossed his arms and said, "For your Majesty's sake, I'll let it go this time. If it happens again, I'll smash your head like a watermelon!"

Lu Bai quickly pulled Ping Jianlou up. Chi Yun was still well-informed. This punch seemed very powerful, but it only taught Ping Jianlou a lesson, which was a bit ugly. His entire eye socket became black, which looked a bit funny.

Ping Jianlou covered his eyes and screamed, "Oh my god, where did this fierce guy come from? He almost sent me to hell with one punch."

Lu Bai introduced: "This is Senior Chi Yun, he is now over a hundred years old, and is a master who has reached the realm of transformation. He also knows the art of iron smelting and mechanical engineering, which is top-notch and extremely powerful."

Chi Yun crossed his arms, and when he heard Lu Bai's words, he raised his chin proudly and laughed: "Lu Bai, you are quite objective. I am really that powerful!"

Ping Jianlou smiled awkwardly. He didn't expect that he would speak without restraint and offend such a powerful person.

But now is not the time to admire, Ping Jianlou calmed down and asked quickly: "Lu Bai, why are you here?"

Lu Bai then told Ping Jianlou again what he had seen with Chi Yun.

"Here is the tiger talisman!"

Lu Bai took out the tiger talisman from his arms with great care, "His Majesty asked me to dispatch a large army to the south to rescue Noki Province."

"Tiger Talisman?!"

Ping Jianlou took the tiger talisman from Lu Bai and after careful observation, he found that it was a real tiger talisman.

"With the tiger talisman here, we can mobilize the troops immediately!"

Ping Jianlou frowned and said, "I felt something was wrong earlier, and it turned out to be my guess!"

Lu Bai put away the tiger talisman and asked, "What are you doing here?"
