"Of course, that Misu is just a little boy, so it has nothing to do with the previous two attacks, but this girl is from the Qingqiu Fox Clan after all. Fellow Daoist Shen should not let her show up in Chang'an City. , and there are quite a few people from other sects who also hate the Qingqiu Fox Clan very much." Master Huang Mu said, when talking about the Qingqiu Fox Clan, his tone was a bit cold.

"Elder Huang Mu, don't worry, I will send him back to the country of Qingqiu immediately, so that his people can be settled properly, and will not cause any more trouble for you. By the way, I don't know how the Duke of Cheng is doing right now? I left in a hurry yesterday, so I didn't see him. How about the Duke?" Shen Luo nodded, then asked.

"With the help of the national teacher, master, all the demonic energy in the old man's body has dissipated, but the meridians and spirit have been deeply invaded by the demonic energy, and it will take a long time to recuperate, and the cultivation base may be greatly damaged." Lu Huaming said in a deep voice.

Shen Luo's heart sank when he heard this, he didn't expect Cheng Yaojin's injury to be so serious.

"The officials of the Tang Dynasty and Yuan Guoshi are extremely powerful. There is no shame in this matter. However, I got these three treasures from several demons during the Battle of Yuanqiu yesterday. They all have the effect of suppressing evil spirits. Please send them to me." Send it to Cheng Guogong to help him recover as soon as possible, and I will repay Cheng Guogong for his kindness to me in the past." After pondering for a while, he took out Ganjiang Moxie, Wuzijing and Fumotianshu, and put them on the table.

Lu Huaming didn't recognize the Three Treasures, but Master Huang Mu knew that these three treasures were Yuan Tiangang's personal treasures, so how could they be in Shen Luo's place?

Thoughts surged in his mind, and he wanted to ask, but he still didn't say it.

Master Huang Mu pondered over and over again, finally accepted the Three Treasures, and planned to enter the palace immediately to inquire about Yuan Tiangang.

After they chatted for a while, Lu Huaming and Master Huang Mu said goodbye and left.

"Brother Shen, are you planning to go to the country of Qingqiu?" Hu Bugui asked after sending the two away.

"The matter in Chang'an City is full of suspicions. The Fox Clan in Qingqiu may not be the accomplices. If I don't investigate this matter clearly, I will feel uneasy." Shen Luo sighed and said.

"Brother Shen killed countless monsters last night without even blinking. It's as if a god of killing has descended into the world. It's frightening. Unexpectedly, he has such a compassionate heart." Hu Bugui laughed.

"The matter is urgent, so I'm leaving now. Brother Hu, what are your plans?" Shen Luo gave Hu Bugui a look, and asked angrily.

"Brother Shen, as a human race, is also willing to work for our fox clan. I am also a member of the fox clan, so naturally I have a duty to go with you." Fox Bugui smiled.

Shen Luo nodded slightly, he had never been to the country of Qingqiu, and with Fox Bugui, a person who knew it there, many things would be much easier to handle.

The two set off immediately without delay.

……

On the border of the Tang Dynasty, more than a hundred miles outside Hongzhou City, there is a border military town named Xiangyang Town.

The town is small in size, but it is extremely lively on weekdays, because it is close to the Valley of Chaoyang to the south, and it is a neighbor of Qingqiu Country in the valley, and it often conducts various trade exchanges.

Qingqiu Country is a country of the Fox Clan, and the people of the clan can transform themselves to a certain level of practice, and their skins are all the best in the world, so they are favored by the human race, and they often attract human races from all over the world to come here.

Only recently, the situation in the military town has changed.

For some unknown reason, the Datang government suddenly issued an order to close down the trade activities in Xiangyang Army Town. Immediately afterwards, a large number of government troops in Hongzhou were dispatched and stationed in Xiangyang Town.

The military towns and city defenses that were originally dispensable were unified and replaced by the government army, and began to become extremely strict, with a posture of readying for war.

On this day, Shen Luo and his party finally arrived here on their way.

They took a rest in the military town, and after Hu Bugui filled up their drinks, they prepared to leave Xiangyang Town and enter Chaoyang Valley.

Just as the three of them were about to leave the town, they were stopped by the guarding government army.

The leading monk who accompanied the army only had an early Mahayana cultivation base, so he couldn't tell the depth of Shen Luo and Fox No Return, but he vaguely sensed the fox aura on Misu's body, and immediately led people to surround them.

"Bold fox clan, you still dare to sneak into the military town right now, is it for spies to gather information?" the monk accompanying the army shouted.

When Mi Su heard this, she was a little annoyed, and when she was about to speak, she was stopped by Shen Luo.

"Fellow Daoist misunderstood, we just returned from Chang'an, and we are going to Qingqiu to investigate the disaster of the fox clan." Shen Luo said.

"Hmph, I think they just attacked Chang'an City, and you want to take the opportunity to escape? Come on, take them all for me." The monk shouted immediately.

As soon as his words fell, a group of government troops with weapons in their hands forced them up.

Seeing this, Shen Luo had no choice but to take out a token from his waist and show it to the monk.

The monk saw that Shen Luo took out the token of the Datang government, and after confirming that it was correct, he realized that he had made a mistake, and immediately apologized: "This subordinate is also following orders, and I hope you will forgive me."

"It's okay, you did the right thing." Shen Luo smiled and took back the token and said.

Seeing that he really had no intention of pursuing it, the monk accompanying the army was secretly relieved.

"However, what's going on now, why did the atmosphere suddenly become so tense? When we left Chang'an a few days ago, we hadn't heard of it being so tense." Shen Luo asked.

"Your Excellency, I don't know. Because the Fox Clan made a lot of noise, all the clans have decided to ask the Qingqiu Kingdom for an explanation. The Tang government sent an order a few days ago, asking me to stay in Xiangyangjun Town and keep close contact with them." Pay attention to the movements in the Valley of the Sun." The monk accompanying the army quickly explained.

He paused, then added with some worry: "I'm afraid the flames of war will reignite..."

When Mi Su heard this, the expression on his face suddenly became tense.

Seeing this, Shen Luo patted Misu's shoulder lightly, signaling her not to worry too much.

After several people registered here according to the law, they left Xiangyang Town and headed for Chaoyang Valley.

……

Outside the military town is a smooth road, running through and extending into the valley far away.

"I heard from Grandma Qiu that this road was built by the government of the Tang Dynasty. The relationship between our Qingqiu country and the Tang Dynasty has always been very good... I really don't know why it has become like this." Mi Su felt like thinking No way.

"Don't worry too much, let's go back and investigate what's going on, maybe we can resolve the conflict." Shen Luo said.

"There must be a misunderstanding here. As long as the misunderstanding is solved and the real culprit behind the scenes is found, the suspicion of our Qingqiu country can be cleared." Mi Su nodded, but his frown did not loosen.

Seeing this, Shen Luo didn't say anything else, Hu Bugui beside him also seemed extremely silent, just raised his head and took a sip of wine occasionally, his eyes always fell on the mountains and rivers in the distance.

Regardless of the state of mind of the three of them at this time, the scenery in Chaoyang Valley is very good. Although this place is called a valley in name, the terrain is not narrow, but the two sides are far away from the higher terrain, which makes this place look like a desert. valley.

At the end of the valley, the towering peak is Qingqiu Mountain.

The low shrubs and towering trees in the valley are interlaced, and you can see a gurgling stream passing by at intervals, occasionally converging into a clear spring on a rocky beach or a low-lying place, and then flowing into the underground river.

Where the few people passed by, people gradually disappeared, and the sound of birds and beasts' hooves in the forest also increased.

The little fox Misu walked beside Shen Luo, took a deep breath, and let it out slowly, a slight smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, his face obviously relaxed a lot.

Shen Luo sighed in his heart, it seemed that the little girl seemed to be quite calm these days, but in fact she was living with some fear.

Chapter 1475

"Misu, how far is it from Qingqiu Country?" Hu Bugui asked suddenly.

"It's not far away. Our Qingqiu Fox Clan has a huge number, and the clan land has been expanding over the years. After passing the mountain depression in front, we can see a village." Mi Su pointed to the front and said.

Hearing the words, Hu Bugui nodded and looked over there.

Soon, the three of them turned around the col and saw the small village from afar.

It doesn't look much different from the human villages there, except that the houses built by the foxes are mostly circular semi-underground buildings, surrounded by logs as walls, and the roofs are covered with planks and hay.

Another difference is that almost all of these fox houses have two or three doors in different directions.

Seeing this, Mi Su was about to run towards that side, but Shen Luo stretched out his hand to stop him.

"Wait, something is wrong."

It's dusk right now, and it should be time for each family to cook dinner, but the village is dead silent, with no smoke rising from the kitchen. It looks as if no one lives in it.

Shen Luo immediately let go of his divine sense to explore the past, but as expected, there was no one there.

"How could this happen?" Misu wondered.

"Let's go and have a look." Shen Luo said, walking in the front.

Misu followed closely behind him, and Hu Bugui naturally protected him at the back.

But after the three of them entered the village and checked around, they found that the village was clean and orderly, with no signs of damage to the houses, and no signs of fighting anywhere.

"It seems that these villagers have evacuated in an orderly manner, rather than being attacked." Hu Bugui pointed to a few mixed rut marks extending to the other side of the village, and said.

"It seems that Qingqiu Kingdom also sensed the crisis and evacuated all the villagers ahead of time." Shen Luo frowned.

"It's not too late. I'm afraid we have to go to Qingqiu country as soon as possible to find out what's going on. If the conflict can't be resolved after a long time, I'm afraid Datang and Qingqiu will really have a battle." Hu Bugui said.

The three immediately speeded up and rushed to Qingqiu country.

……

In the early morning of the second day, the three of them came to the deepest part of the Valley of the Rising Sun against the dawn.

This is already the narrowest place in the entire valley. The towering mountain walls on the left and right sides are extremely smooth. Under the reflection of the morning sun, they are golden in color and look brilliant.

Under the golden light, a city fortress formed by a continuous building stands in the valley between two mountain walls, bathed in dazzling light, exuding a very unique atmosphere.

The three of Shen Luo stood outside the city, quietly watching the scene in front of them.

The little fox fan Su had already seen the strangeness, and there was not much emotion in his eyes other than the joy of returning home.

Shen Luo is emotional, and this may be the reason for the origin of the Chaoyang Valley.

Only Hu Bugui had a complex expression, with some excitement in his eyes.

Arriving here, most of the previous doubts of the three of them were resolved. The terrain outside the city is not flat, and platforms of different sizes have been formed, on which hundreds of colorful tents have been built.

The villagers in the vacant villages encountered on the road before have all been resettled here.

"Let's go, we're going into the city right now." Misu pulled up the sleeves of Shen Luo and Hu Bugui, and rushed towards the city.

Before the few people reached the gate of the city, they elicited a series of exclamations.

Those foxes who had just walked out of the tent in the early morning were also very surprised to see the human race Shen Luo.

However, the three of them had no time to take care of it right now, and went straight to the gate of the city.

The fox monks stationed outside the city quickly rushed over and stopped the three of them.

"Who trespassed on Qingqiu Country?" asked a leader of the cultivator, slender and elegant.

At the same time as he spoke, the aura on his body radiated, and he turned out to be an early stage cultivator of true immortality.

"Grandma Li, why are you guarding the gate here?" Mi Su exclaimed in surprise when she saw this.

The cultivator originally focused his attention on Shen Luo, but when he heard the words and looked again, he exclaimed in surprise: "It's Little Misu who's back, let grandma take a look, isn't it hurt?"

You Li's appearance is very young, he looks not much older than Mi Su, the picture of the two of them being compatible with each other seems somewhat weird.

"Ahem, there is Elder Li, Shen Luo, coming from Chang'an City." Shen Luo could only cough twice, and said.

He revealed his identity with one sentence, and You Li's complexion turned cold after hearing this.

"There is Grandma Li, it was Brother Shen and Brother Fox who escorted me back, and it was Brother Shen who protected me all the time when I was in Chang'an." Seeing this, Mi Su quickly added.

Hearing this, Elder You Li's expression softened, and he nodded to Shen Luo and Hu Bugui.

But when he looked at Hu Bugui, he couldn't help frowning slightly.

"Grandma, did you do something wrong to be punished by my grandma to guard the city gate?" Mi Su asked.

"What a mess, I'm in charge of arranging these clansmen outside, and I'm keeping an eye on the city defense. But you, this time sneaked out of Qingqiu to see you go back, how can you explain to your grandma?" Elder You Li felt a little sympathetic. looked at her.

When Mi Su heard this, she couldn't help shrinking her neck, obviously she was a little afraid of her grandma.

"You came to the Fox Clan to escort Misu?" Elder You Li looked at Shen Luo and asked.

"Not all, we also want to investigate the chaos in Chang'an, who is in charge?" Shen Luo said.

"Just the two of you?" Elder You Li obviously didn't trust them very much.

"If two Taiyi realm monks come, I'm afraid the Qingqiu Fox Clan will not let them in at ease, right? The situation is urgent now. If the truth cannot be investigated as soon as possible, I am afraid that Qingqiu will be in danger of destroying the country." Don't care, said.

"Grandma Li..." Mi Su muttered, somewhat dissatisfied.

"Okay, okay, you'd better go back and meet your grandma first." Elder You Li said helplessly.

Mi Su stuck out her tongue, turned around and wanted to take Shen Luo and the others away.

"If possible, I also hope to meet Lord Qingqiu." Shen Luo said.

"You want to see the king, what's the matter?" Elder You Li frowned and asked.

"As a witness to the disaster in Chang'an, this junior would like to ask Lord Qingqiu to verify some things." Shen Luo said.

"Are you representing the Tang government?" Elder Youli asked.

"On behalf of myself, on behalf of those who have witnessed the catastrophe in Chang'an, I need to hear Qingqiu Kingdom's explanation with my own ears." Shen Luo said calmly.

"Hmph, does our lord need to explain to you a little true immortal monk?" Elder You Li sneered.

"It's not for me. The timing of the Chang'an disaster this time was during the Yanhe Conference held by the various factions of the Three Realms. It wasn't just the Tang government that disturbed the family. Now it has aroused dissatisfaction from all the factions of the Three Realms. At that time, I would like to express my gratitude to you, Qingqiu. The Fox Clan is probably not the only one responsible for the Tang government, don't you think there should be a reasonable explanation?" Shen Luo sneered and said.

"Are you threatening me?" Elder You Li asked with a frown.
