"Come with me, there may be a good show nearby!"
Mr. Bu left a sentence, and the person walked towards the other end of the maple forest.
Seeing this, Shang Xia hurriedly followed quickly.
Out of the maple forest, a low mound appeared in front of him, and the withered yellow weeds on it danced in the cold wind.
Mr. Bu made a silent gesture to Shang Xia, and climbed up the mound first.
Shang Xia followed Mr. Zaibu to the top of the mound and looked down under the cover of weeds, but saw several red cloud horses walking around casually, eating weeds on the gentle slope of the leeward under the mound.
At the bottom of the slope, a pile of bonfires was lit, and several warriors of different ages were standing around the fire and chatting casually.
Judging from the appearance of several people, it was obvious that these people had traveled a long way in advance.
And during the conversation, these people also looked in the direction of the Chiba Mountains from time to time, obviously waiting for someone.
Shang Xia was a little stunned when he saw these people, probably because there were actually two people he knew in it.
"Boy, do you know who these people are?"
Mr. Bu's voice came from Shang Xia's ears.
Shang Xia didn't reply and said, "Youyan Eighteen Riders!"
"Huh?"
Mr. Bu's surprised voice sounded from his ears: "You kid actually know about the 'Eighteen Riders of Youyan'?"
Shang Xia smiled without looking back: "In the past few days, this name is about to be heard in the ears of the younger generation."
Mr. Bu said "oh" and said, "Yes, you also know that the third child in the 'Eighteen Riders of Youyan' was captured by Yang Hu, so you should also guess that they gathered outside Changfeng City to rescue the third child?"
Shang Xia noticed that several more horses were coming on horseback in the distance, and then shrank down towards the weeds on the mound, saying, "Maybe there will be an internal strife first."
Mr. Bu became more and more surprised and said, "Do you know again?"
At this time, Shang Xia's heart moved, and he turned his head and asked, "Sir, you are not thinking of taking these people for your own use, are you?"
Mr. Bu was not surprised that Shang Xia could see through his plan this time, but asked, "Isn't it okay? Yang Hu has been operating in Changfeng City for twenty years, and now there are two major forces helping him, the Cangling Realm and the White Deer Blessed Land, who can you and I use now?"
Shang Xia was a little unfamiliar with the channel, "You have been in Changfeng City for so many years, haven't you recruited some usable people under your command?"
Mr. Bu asked rhetorically: "If the old man can manage a force, can he still hide it from Yang Hu in Changfeng City?"
Mr. Bu's words were naturally not believed by Shang Xia, but he insisted that there was no way.
Seeing that the eighteen riders of Youyan under the mound had gathered twelve or thirteen people at this time, he said, "How can you be sure that these people can be used, sir?"
Mr. Bu did not answer directly, but asked, "Do you know the identities of these people?"
Shang Xia said: "You mean that there is a shadow of Tongyou Academy behind them?"
Mr. Bu sighed slightly and said, "Not only that, most of them are people who were exiled and punished by Tongyou Academy after making mistakes."
Shang Xia was startled, and at the same time, he understood many things that he had found strange before, and he understood them in an instant.
"Do they have any complaints about the academy? In addition, now the academy itself is too busy to take care of itself, which gave Yang Hu a chance to subdue them?" Shang Xia asked.
Mr. Bu said: "It's not just about taking care of yourself? At this moment, anyone who knows anything about the situation in Youzhou is probably not very optimistic about Tongyou City. Even the other four frontier academies probably believe that Tongyou Academy insists on going their own way and may not be willing to help with all their might."
Shang Xia was about to ask more news from Mr. Bu's mouth, but Mr. Bu said first, "The people are almost here, let's see what they are going to do!"
Shang Xia looked at the bottom of the slope when he heard this, and then noticed that just as he was talking to Mr. Bu, several more riders had already arrived.
Shang Xia's eyes swept away, and there were only sixteen riders in total.
But at this time, everyone had already stood up, standing in a circle around the bonfire, each wearing a thick cloak and a hood on their heads, which at first glance looked like a cult assembly.
"Hey, why are you only sixteen riders?"
Mr. Bu's somewhat surprised voice sounded in Shang Xia's ears.
Shang Xia's heart moved, but he said, "Senior, do you know which one hasn't arrived?"
Mr. Bu hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Everyone covers their faces with hoods, and it is not clear who is absent for the time being."
Shang Xia raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this, and stopped making a sound, but focused on the assembly under the hillside in the distance.
At this time, some of the sixteen people obviously had already had a dispute.
Although Shang Xia couldn't hear what these people were saying clearly, and he couldn't see the expressions of the people arguing, he could see the hood shaking frequently and violently when someone was talking because of emotion.
Although he couldn't hear the content of the dispute between these people, through the body language that was 'exposed' on the surface, Mr. Bu was actually able to judge that the sixteen people at the foot of the hillside were roughly divided into three groups.
Among the two groups of people who broke out in the dispute, there were about three or four people in the first group, and there were four or five in the other, and the rest remained silent, which can be regarded as neutral?
At this moment, one of the leaders of one of the group of people suddenly lifted the hood on his head, 'exposed' a big bald head with two scars, and said loudly in a throat like a broken gong, "Everything that needs to be said has been said, what should be fought for has also been fought, everyone already knows in their hearts how things are, as for what to decide, everyone decides!"
Speaking of this, the bald warrior turned his head to look at one of them and said in a deep voice, "Boss Sha, what do you say?"
Although both sides seemed very excited on the surface, Shang Xia could barely hear a few words.
But when the bald warrior lifted his hood, his voice clearly reached Shang Xia's ears. There is no doubt that the capes and hoods on these people obviously have soundproof special effects.
"Quiet cloak?" Shang Xia muttered to himself.
Mr. Abu's voice sounded in his ears again, "No, but the cloaks on their bodies do have a sound-insulating effect, and they should all be imitations. The real cloak of tranquility is said to belong to Ebisan, and the person wearing the cloak of tranquility you met in Yanlaiju that day is most likely Eraisan's daughter."
Shang Xia nodded slightly without moving.
At this time, Mr. Bu's introduction came from his ears again, and he said, "That bald head is Zeng Si among the Eighteen Horsemen, and his cultivation of the second level of martial arts can be regarded as a good hand."
"The Eighteen Riders of Youyan may have been composed of students who were punished and exiled by Tongyou Academy, and they were mostly engaged in some unfair things in Jizhou. Then the bald Zeng Si is naturally the fourth of Youyan's eighteen riders, and the Sha Lao nature he speaks of is the eldest of the eighteen riders!"
As soon as Mr. Bu's words fell, the person who was called by Zeng Si also lifted the hood on his head, revealing a one-eyed middle-aged man wearing a black "color" blindfold.
I only heard him say "hmm" first, but his expression looked very hesitant, and said, "The third child naturally wants to be saved, but what the second child and the fourth child said is not unreasonable, right...... It's still a long-term plan, anyway, for a while, the third child shouldn't be in danger of life, ...... that sixth sister, do you think I'm right?"
Zeng Si's face flashed with helplessness, and he didn't seem to be surprised by this, but when he heard his boss mention Lao Liu, he still patiently prepared to listen to what Gu Laoliu said.
Gu Liu didn't expect to be taken out by the boss as a shield, lifted his hood to reveal a slightly pale woman's face, and quickly smiled "hehe", saying, "A few brothers will discuss, and if there is a result, I will follow the old six!"
Sha Da and Gu Liu, who had never spoken, were originally regarded as the strength of the two sides in the dispute, but they never thought that one of the two would not offend either side, and the other would have no idea.
"Although the eighteen riders of Youyan are a whole, in fact, the first six warriors who have achieved martial arts cultivation have the weight of speaking, and among these six people, although Sha Da has the highest cultivation and the oldest age, he is not a person with ideas. The movements of the eighteen riders have always been decided by the remaining four people. Now that Hai San is detained in Changfeng City, it should be the remaining three people who have a dispute."
While Mr. Bu quietly introduced the Eighteen Riders of Youyan to Shang Xia's ear, he also roughly introduced the situation of several third-order warriors led by him.
At this time, two more people lifted their hoods to reveal their faces, one of whom was Cen Wu, who had a relationship with Shang Xia.
The other man looked less than forty years old, with a slightly feminine complexion, and at first glance he looked like a middle-aged man with a deep mind.
