The closed garden gate was pushed open.

A leather boot stepped in from outside.

Wei Tao stood with his hands behind his back, expressionless as he watched the man in a bamboo hat and coir raincoat cross the threshold and stand on the bluestone pavement of the garden.

Although it was snowing outside, there was not a single snowflake on the man's body.

There wasn't even a trace of water stains. It didn't look like he had just walked out of the heavy snow, but he had stayed in a warm and dry house from beginning to end.

Wei Tao only glanced at it and then withdrew his gaze, turning his head to look behind the man.

There was also a slender figure holding a paper umbrella, which reminded him inexplicably of the subordinate of Supervisor Lu Zhihe.

The ethereal appearance and ghostly changes left a deep impression on him.

"Who are you? Where are you from here?" the man in the hat asked.

Wei Tao said casually, "I am the secret envoy sent by the prince. If you need anything, just tell me."

"You are Prince Yan's secret envoy, so who are we?" The man was stunned, slowly raised the bamboo hat on his head, and looked over here.

His eyes had no pupils and were pale.

It is still projecting a cold light outward, as if there are two pure-color glass spheres inlaid in the eye sockets.

Whoosh!

The light blue paper umbrella rotated, driving the slim figure to float to the side silently.

The men in bamboo hats and hats lined up on both sides, forming a flanking attack.

Wei Tao smiled slightly and said, "Don't worry, you two. I am indeed Prince Yan's secret envoy, but I did not say that I was Prince Yan's secret envoy.

After all, there is more than one prince, and besides Prince Yan, there are also other princes near the capital."

"Where did you come from? It's best to tell the truth. Maybe I can spare your life."

The man spoke slowly, his tone becoming more and more indifferent, "You have to walk your own path. Once you make the wrong choice, it will be a mistake that will lead to eternal regrets. It will be a hundred years ago when you look back. When that time comes, it will be difficult to look back.

…”

Before he finished speaking, he disappeared without warning.

When he reappeared, he was already in front of Wei Tao, and he reached out and grabbed him.

The coir raincoat shook rapidly, and there was a faint sound of wind and thunder, and even the howling wind and snow were stagnant.

At the same time, the light blue paper umbrella rotated rapidly, its edge was like a blade, tearing the air and making a screaming sound.

Snap!

Put your five fingers together and burst a bunch of snowflakes.

The man in coir raincoat was suddenly startled.

The catch he was determined to win unexpectedly came to nothing.

After calming down and looking again, I realized that the young man only took half a step to one side and dodged all the attacks.

The man in the coir raincoat looked gloomy and solemn, extremely sad, and he was already thinking of retreating.

At this moment, his vision dimmed.

Centered on the place where the two people were, a large area seemed to be divided.

"This kind of power..."

"Could he be a martial arts master!?"

"Such a young martial arts master!?"

"What virtues and abilities do I have? I can actually let a martial arts master personally deal with it..."

The man in the coir raincoat's vision went dark, and he was frightened. He wanted to turn around and run away, but he was blinded by all colors and lost all sound, and completely lost all sense of the outside world.

The sound of soft footsteps was heard, and Wu Qingxuan looked at the two unconscious figures on the ground, her eyes flashing thoughtfully.

After a while, she tore the paper umbrella apart and found a note sealed with beeswax.

After opening it and taking a quick look, Wu Qingxuan's expression changed slightly, "They are not Prince Yan's secret envoys, but people from the Qinglian Sect."

Wei Tao took the note and slowly read out a few key words, "Meishan, Yunhong, Lieshan in the north of Beijing."

"People from the Qinglian Sect are also looking for them?"

He was lost in thought, and after a moment he raised his head and said, "Standing back and waiting has already paid off. We can't stay here any longer. We must leave immediately."

"Also, where is Meishan in northern Beijing?"

Wu Qingxuan identified the direction and raised her hand to point into the distance, "It's roughly at that location. If it weren't for the gloomy sky and the wind and snow, Daozi should be able to vaguely see the outline of Meishan Mountain from here."

The sky was getting dark, but the wind and snow still did not stop.

Several figures were moving quickly through the wilderness.

Snowflakes fell on her body, quickly soaking through the white robe she was wearing outside, making the clothes underneath also wet.

The cold air tightly wrapped their bodies, and even the stimulation of qi and blood could not completely stop it. It gradually sucked away the warmth from the body, and over time, even their movements became stiff and numb.

But even so, they still didn't find a place to take a rest, and they didn't even slow down their speed, and kept heading north despite the wind and snow.

Until I saw the hazy shadow at the end of my sight, it looked like a giant beast lying prone on the earth, sleeping soundly in the snowstorm.

The leading man in white robe raised his right hand.

The entire team suddenly stopped following his movements. Everyone moved in unison, and there was not even the slightest deviation in their relative positions.

Wow…

A strong wind roared past, blowing up large ice crystal snowflakes and hitting him hard on the face, making a crackling sound.

A person from behind came closer and said despite the wind and snow, "Sir, the gray shadow in front of you is Meishan."

"The elder asked us to find two people in Meishan."

The man in the white robe exhaled heavily and stared at the mountain shadow in the distance with an embarrassed expression on his face, "I thought Meishan was just a small rocky slope, but I didn't expect it to be such a large rocky mountain.

Although the mountain looks gentle and not too high, looking for people in such a large area is like looking for a needle in a haystack, and how long will it take our team to find it?"

After a pause, he asked again, "Does the blind man sent to the Acropolis have any news?"

A female voice from the team said, "Not yet, it shouldn't be so soon."

"Forget it, don't wait for him, let's set off."

Following a low shout from the man in white robe, several people behind him stood up at the same time and galloped towards the shadow in the distance.

Just took a step forward.

The man at the end of the line suddenly trembled, and then fell softly to the ground without making a sound.

The other six people stopped suddenly, their eyes expressions of uncertainty.

They saw no trace of the enemy at all, but it was an indisputable fact that a comrade lost his life without warning.

Enemies that can be seen are not scary, the real fear comes from the unknown.

The scene that just happened made their whole bodies shiver and their scalps numb, because no one knew who would die next and what kind of death they would have.

The man in white robe suddenly shouted, "Qinglian Liuhe, form a formation and spin to kill!"

Suddenly the strong wind roared, breaking up the wind and snow, and in an instant a large open space was cleared, revealing the color of the wilderness itself.

"Take it!" The man in white robe shouted again.

The six people stood silently and held their breath, looking at the gray-yellow ground around them that had been shaved off a whole layer.

"Under such an indiscriminate attack, except for martial arts masters who are transformed from heaven to humans, even enemies who are good at hiding themselves will be forced to reveal themselves."

The man in white robe looked around, the confusion in his eyes not only did not lessen, but became more intense.

"The enemy used extremely fast speed to dodge the attack the moment we formed a formation to attack?"

"Or is it that the person who killed people before was not a human being, but the demon that came to the world mentioned in the scriptures!?"

Just as the second thought flashed across his mind, the man in white robe suddenly changed his face and turned his head to look to one side.

There was a dull thud.

Another person fell to the ground and made no sound.

"Five square formations, surround and kill!" He gritted his teeth violently, his voice as cold and ruthless as the stone at his feet.

The other four people changed their positions silently, but at the moment when the figure flashed, another person's body trembled and he fell to the ground softly.

The man in white robe turned around silently, and under the gaze that could turn water into ice, the only woman in the team stopped breathing.

Between her eyebrows, a tiny hole appeared at some point. The blood was frozen as soon as it spilled out, and was immediately covered by snowflakes.

The five-square formation had already been broken before it even started.

The cold wind howled and snowflakes flew.

It was dark all around.
