Chapter 253 Early on the next morning, everyone who wanted to arrive at the Yantai Lake in Xiaoshan before Zuo Chi had a quick wash in the cool river water around them, and after tidying up a little, got on their horses one after another.
Get ready to go.
However, Nie Zaizhi was seen to be motionless, standing beside his mount with a calm expression, holding the reins in his hand, but showing no intention of getting on the horse and heading off.
"Zaizhi, what's wrong with you?
Hurry up and leave."
Mo Lidao was beside Nie Zaizhi.
He thought Nie Zaizhi was thinking about something, but after waiting for a short while, Nie Zaizhi still didn't see Nie Zaizhi getting on his horse and driving away.
He couldn't help but asked doubtfully.
Chu Jing also noticed the situation on Nie Zaizhi and Mo Lidao's side at this time.
He couldn't help but look at Nie Zaizhi, but his eyes inevitably met with Nie Zaizhi's.
Chu Jingdang felt a thump in her heart.
Seeing this, Chu Jing couldn't help but think of his evasive behavior last night, and thought to himself: Nie Zaizhi might have discovered his actions last night.
Sure enough, when Nie Zaizhi saw Chu Jing's eyes flickering towards him, he said with a cold expression: "Even if it is important to hurry, there is no need to rush at this moment.
Before that, I would like to ask the dark master who he saw and what he said last night when we were not aware of it."
Chu Jing couldn't help but narrowed her eyes slightly when she heard the words.
She saw Nie Zaizhi staring at her closely, his gaze was very scrutinizing.
He was silent for a moment, smiled softly amidst everyone's surprised eyes, and said: "It turns out that I am arrogant.
I actually thought that I had deceived the powerful Taoist Qingfeng."
Seeing this, Nie Zaizhi still said calmly: "So.
The dark master has admitted that he did other things without telling us last night."
Chu Jing sighed softly when he heard this, and immediately turned over and got off his horse.
He stood on the ground and said: "Indeed, but I did not hide it intentionally.
Please forgive me."
When the others heard that something was indeed fishy, they followed Chu Jing and got off their horses.
Their eyes flickered back and forth between Chu Jing and Nie Zaizhi, but they were confused but did not say anything.
"In that case.
Please tell the secret master clearly what is going on.
Now you and I have the same purpose.
I think the secret master should be clear about the stakes."
Nie Zaizhi looked directly at Chu Jing and said.
Seeing this, Chu Jing couldn't help but nodded, glanced at the others around him, and explained: "Actually, after you went to bed last night, I received news from my subordinates."
"Your subordinate."
Nie Zaizhi couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
If the matter was an internal secret of the Shadow Sect, how should he ask?
But Chu Jing still spoke and continued: "Considering what you and I are trying to do at the moment, it doesn't hurt to tell you.
To be honest, I received a report from my subordinates, saying that within my Shadow Sect, the master has mobilized almost all the people and are heading north. " "Could it be that the destination in the north is the same as ours?"
Mo Lidao couldn't help but said in surprise when he heard this.
Chu Jing shook his head. said: "No, the information I received said that they were not sent to join the sect owner, but to go to the northern border."
"Northern border" Now, everyone couldn't understand it anymore, and they all looked at Chu Jing in confusion.
Chu Jing was silent for a moment, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said slowly: "Something happened in the north."
What happened?
When everyone heard this, they all looked at each other, completely clueless.
Before Chu Jing heard the news last night, it was not like this.
"Uncle Jing, what happened in the north?"
Wu Jue also asked in surprise at this time.

Chu Jing frowned and said: "Actually, not only me, but I'm afraid you all wouldn't have expected that this time, in addition to our shadow sect gathering almost all the manpower to rush to the northern border, even the tens of thousands of troops far away in the southwest also had troops heading north.
The posture of gathering in the environment.”
"The army in the Southwest is not the Southwest Cavalry under the control of Uncle Zuo."
Nie Yao immediately hesitated after hearing this, his expression full of disbelief.
"Could it be that the northern border is in turmoil and there is a foreign invasion?"
Nie Zaizhi understood and asked hurriedly.
Chu Jing took a deep breath after hearing this, nodded and said: "That's right, I only received the news last night that the Hui Qiang have gathered a large army to set up camp 700 miles away from our northern border.
Their number exceeds 70,000."
After hearing this, everyone was filled with disbelief after being briefly stunned.
Mo Lidao even said: "How is this possible?
The 70,000 Qiang people did not use the power of the entire country.
How is this possible?"
Chu Jing didn't think so, but when he heard this, he just shook his head and did not speak.
When everyone saw Chu Jing's expression, they knew that what Chu Jing said seemed to be true.
"It seems that the master of your shadow sect must be related to this move to return to the Qiang."
Nie Zaizhi looked at Chu Jing and couldn't help but change his gaze.
At this time, he was no longer just looking at it.
But full of doubt.
Seeing Nie Zaizhi acting like this, how could Chu Jing not understand the reason, but he could only say helplessly: "It is true that I just learned the news last night.
However, since the sect owner and Zuo Chi have made an appointment to meet at the Yantai Lake in Xiaoshan the day after tomorrow, there will definitely be no difference.
So, please don't Because of this, the opportunity to rescue Zuo Chi and Deng Si'er was missed."
When Nie Zaizhi heard this, he just remained silent and did not speak.
Among the people, only Nie Zaizhi was getting along with Chu Jing for the first time.
Mo Lidao, Wu Jue and Nie Yao did not have any doubts about Chu Jingchai at this time.
Although the news that Chu Jing just said really shocked them, the turmoil at the border was a matter for the imperial military and had little connection or conflict with their current rush to rescue Zuo Chi and Deng Si'er, so there was no conflict. , they still believe in Chu Jing and believe that Chu Jing sincerely saves Deng Si'er and Zuo Chi.
Nie Zaizhi still lowered his head and said nothing in the eyes of everyone.
Just when everyone was waiting with anxious faces, they finally saw Nie Zaizhi raise his head and look at Chu Jing intently.
After a moment, he heard Nie Zaizhi's deep voice. said: "Okay, I believe you."
Chu Jing was relieved when he saw this, and couldn't help but continued: "In this case, I would like to ask Taoist Master Nie and everyone to get on their horses quickly.
I believe that the most urgent task is to reach the foot of Mount Wei before Zuo Chi so that we can make preparations to deal with sudden events.
Without further ado, we will get on the road immediately. " Except for Nie Zaizhi, everyone nodded in agreement, and the next moment they turned back on the horse.
Everyone looked back and saw that Nie Zaizhi got on his horse without any objection, and they couldn't help but feel relaxed.
Seeing this, Chu Jing faced Nie Zaizhi's eyes and nodded solemnly, and then said to everyone: "Let's go."
A moment ago, they were still in a state of relief, but now everyone's faces perked up, and they each waved the riding whip in their hands with serious expressions, and left in the dust.
The situation is so turbulent, everyone knows deep down There is no time
