Chapter 62 Something Happened to the Duan Family
When Huang Feng came back, a group of people were surrounding Duan Mingyan to greet him.
"Master, are you okay?"
"Should we call our brothers to copy the guy?"
Duan Mingyan had already calmed down and picked up the knife again. Listening to these people nagging in her ears, she scolded them all: "Shut up!
People around him quickly fell silent.
Duan Mingyan continued to shout: "Losing means losing. I usually tell you, you have to be responsible, and it's everyone's job to act rogue. And do you have any discernment? Even if you call everyone from Heji Hall, you can't do it." Not someone else’s opponent.”
After the training, Duan Mingyan saw that his subordinates were all honest. Duan Mingyan looked at the fine iron in Sun Xiufu's arms, and his throat made swallowing movements unconsciously.
Forcing herself to look away, she said to Huang Feng who returned, "You are very powerful. I was the one who lost. Are you Sun Xiufu's junior brother?"
"Yes, Huang Feng."
Duan Mingyan nodded: "You are much more pleasing to the eye than him."
Huang Feng's eyes lit up: "How do you say that?"
Duan Mingyan snorted coldly: "You are quite ready to do it, and you are better than your senior brother. He said he didn't want to do anything with women, but in fact, like my family, he despises women.
But I know that during the Fenzhou disaster, your senior brother helped a lot of people. He is a good person, and we don’t know each other this time. "
Huang Feng asked curiously: "I heard that you are the general's granddaughter. Is it true?"
Duan Mingyan did not mince words, and there was a lot of complaining in her tone: "It's true, my grandfather is the general of Zhennan, but don't worry, I'm true to my word and I won't retaliate. Besides, I'm not welcome at home."
"Why?" Huang Feng spoke too quickly. After asking, he realized that they had just met and they were still competing for treasures. It was not good to ask about personal matters. He quickly added, "It's a casual question, you don't have to answer."
Duan Mingyan glanced at him: "Hypocritical!"
Huang Feng: "..."
At this time, Sun Xiufu finally finished admiring the fine iron in his hand and came over.
Duan Mingyan said: "Don't hug me so tightly. I won't regret fighting you. Do you need me to introduce you to a master of weapon refining?"
"OK."
With the treasure in hand, Sun Xiufu couldn't wait to refine the sword.
However, it is difficult to find a master of weapon refining. Famous masters of weapon refining are either in the major immortal sects or in the Great Xia Armory Supervisor. If there is no network, it is very difficult to find a hidden master among the people!
Seeing his anxious look, Duan Mingyan understood very well and said with a smile: "You are really not polite. If you don't use up the fine iron in your sword refining, the rest will be regarded as the introduction fee for me. Is it reasonable?"
"Okay." Sun Xiufu agreed without much thought.
He only cares about the sword. Once the sword is refined, the remaining fine iron is no longer precious to him.
"Then you go back to Fenzhou with me first." Duan Mingyan finished speaking and led the people back.
On the way back, an eagle's cry disturbed everyone. Looking up, they saw a black shadow in the distant sky approaching from far away.
Huang Feng raised his head and saw a majestic flying eagle swooping towards them. It was holding a mailbox under its talons. It seemed that it was not attacking them, but delivering a message.
I don't know if it was due to bloodline suppression, but the white crow that had left Huang Feng behind and returned to Sun Xiufu's shoulder was shaking its wings and looking for a place to hide.
Seeing the eagle appear, Duan Mingyan's face changed slightly and she stretched out her right arm.
The eagle swooped in front of her, flapped its wings, slowly landed on her arm, and placed the mailbox in her hand.
This eagle is used for communication in her home. Unless there is an emergency, the flying eagle will not be sent to communicate.
Taking out the note from the mailbox, Duan Mingyan slowly unfolded it with a solemn expression. There were only four words on the note: Urgent matter, get back as soon as possible!
Seeing that her expression was wrong, her men came to ask one after another: "Master, what happened?"
Huang Feng and Sun Xiufu looked at each other and knew something was wrong, so they watched quietly.
"It's nothing." Duan Mingyan looked at Sun Xiufu, "There may be something going on at home. It just so happens that the weapon refiner master I want to introduce to you is also in the army, so I won't go back to Fenzhou. You guys go to Anyuguan with me."
Huang Feng wanted to refuse. The other party had family matters, so why should he go back with him?
Unexpectedly, Sun Xiufu was only thinking about refining the sword, so he agreed very readily: "Then I won't bother you."
Do you still know about nagging?
Huang Feng complained bitterly in his heart. He wanted to quickly ask for Qiling's treasure from his senior brother. Leaving him alone to retreat first and intruding into the territory of hundreds of thousands of strong men was hard to make people feel at ease.
Anyuguan is the border pass of Daxia, and General Zhennan is stationed there. It is not far from Fenzhou.
Arriving all the way to the bottom of the pass, Huang Feng discovered that the size of Anyuguan was comparable to a large city. Although it was not as large as Shulu, it was not inferior to Fengping. In addition, it was located in a steep mountain, making its momentum even more astonishing.
The gate of Anyuguan was closed tightly, and the expressions of the soldiers on the city wall were particularly solemn and severe. This feeling was very similar to the state of the city defenders when the Dragon Soul attacked Shulu.
Could it be an alien invasion or a big demon trying to break through?
Huang Feng thought for a moment and shook his head, thinking it was impossible.
Duan Mingyan had said before that her family favored boys over girls. If there was an unstoppable battle, she would write to the court to ask for help and send reinforcements to the surrounding areas. There was no reason to rush to call her granddaughter back.
She doesn't have the strength to reverse the situation, so she won't be called back to be buried with him.
Maybe not?
The family must be neat and tidy, no one should be missing?
Huang Feng felt that at this moment, his thoughts were too unhealthy, so he quickly reflected deeply.
Judging from the current situation, the reason why the general called Duan Mingyan to come back would not be war.
However, due to family matters, the mood in the pass was tense. It was very likely that someone had died or been murdered, or that there was a leak of military information or other risks.
"Going to a funeral?" Huang Feng came to this conclusion silently, hoping that he was wrong.
Arriving at the bottom of the pass, the garrison commander recognized Duan Mingyan and still shouted: "Who is under the pass?"
Duan Mingyan took out the token and responded: "I am the general's granddaughter, Duan Mingyan, these two are my friends!"
After confirming the token, the commander ordered someone to open the door, went down to the city wall in person, and welcomed Duan Mingyan into the pass.
Duan Mingyan, the leader of the gatekeeper, recognized her as Grandpa's old subordinate. Normally when he saw her, he would say with a smile, "Girl Duan, you are so willing to come back," but now she was sullen and hesitated to speak.
"Uncle Zheng, what happened?"
The commander gritted his teeth and told the truth: "Your second brother was killed."
Duan Mingyan's face turned pale for a moment. On her way back, she thought her family had learned that she had set up a Heji Hall in Fenzhou and was going to scold her. She never thought that her relatives would be killed.
"This is impossible. There is no war at the moment. How could the second brother be killed!" The tiger-striped sword in Duan Mingyan's hand fell to the ground. The previous strong and unruly aura disappeared and was replaced by anxiety.
"Oh, that's really it." Huang Feng sighed in his heart.
The commander glanced at Huang Feng and Sun Xiufu and said to her, "You'd better go to the big tent quickly."
"good."
Just as Duan Mingyan answered, someone arrived from a distance: "Little sister, you are finally back."
Huang Feng saw that this man was wearing armor and had a sword on his waist. The armor was engraved with the shape of a tiger. He was very powerful. From what he was called, he was Duan Mingyan's brother.
"Eldest brother, second brother?"
The other party did not answer. He noticed Huang Feng's scrutiny, frowned at Duan Mingyan and said, "Why are you still bringing an outsider with you?"
Duan Mingyan was already very impatient. Commander Zheng didn't answer her before. Now her elder brother didn't explain things clearly. Instead, he criticized her. This made her angry instantly: "I had planned to take them back, but the paper I received on the way The words were vague. They only said it was an urgent matter but did not mention that my second brother had been killed. How could I leave my friend behind? "
To Huang Feng's surprise, when his sister got angry, the elder brother actually became timid: "Ahem, that's it. Then I'll set up a military tent for your two friends. You come with me to see grandpa quickly."
