Chapter 154: The Soldiers Are Divided into Two Paths
I didn't even take into account the difference in speed this time, and it seems that I am indeed a little anxious in front of this legendary demon ruins.
I thought for a moment and said, "Then let's do it, let's divide into two ways here." Brother Chongming took Bao Long and Wukong back to the position we had before, and then patrolled around the island from that safe distance. Sister Rui'er and Zhao Hong, I went to the island to investigate the situation first, and if we found anything, we would use the magic weapon of communication to contact us at any time. ”
Lu Chongming nodded and said, "Okay, that's the only way." ”
I instructed Lu Chongming again: "Brother Chongming, you must keep the boat away from danger, don't have a trace of luck, and flee immediately if you find that something is wrong." I'm mainly worried that once there is a fight, Baolong will rush out uncontrollably, so that we will be completely exposed. That's why I want Bao Long to follow you and not let her go to the island. ”
Lu Chongming nodded solemnly and said, "Okay, don't worry." I'll be careful all the time. ”
After separating from Lu Chongming and them, Yu Qinrui and Zhao Hong and I continued to swim towards the coast. The three of us waited in the sea until the second half of the night, after seeing that the frequency of patrols on the island had decreased significantly. I said to Yu Qinrui and Zhao Hong: "When the time comes, let's go." ”
With that, we began to swim towards the coast at an accelerated pace, seizing the gap in the patrol, and the three of us quickly crossed the coastal line and went directly into the jungle behind.
I cautiously led the way, and an hour later I found a safe cave to settle down into. I said to both of them, "We must not use open flames when we come ashore, or the other will find us through the smoke of the burning." But fortunately, I'm a warlock, and I can use my formation to dry our clothes. ”
Zhao Hong asked: "Now that our first step is considered to be successful, what are we going to do next? Besides, there are already so many people guarding the surrounding area of this island, so won't there be more people in the ruins of their hidden treasures?"
I took a sip of wine and said with a smile: "Yes, so where there are many guards, isn't it the place where the treasures of their demon kingdom are hidden? Besides, we are not here to rob those treasures, so if we find a place tomorrow, we can find a way to destroy those things directly, right?"
Zhao Hong listened to my words, and seemed to have something to say and stopped. I said to Zhao Hong: "What do you mean? You Zhao Hong has also started to be a mother-in-law? What do you have to say directly!"
Zhao Hong looked up at me with some embarrassment and said, "Brother You, before I set off from my country, the prime minister of my country specially looked for me. That's the one I told you about before. ”
I nodded and said, "Well, what then? What do you want you to do?"
Zhao Hong said sincerely: "Brother You, I know that I can participate in this mission because of your personal name, but since I am a citizen of Yanyun Country... ”
I interrupted Zhao Hong's words and said, "You, why do you have to go so hard to talk about this matter, isn't it that your prime minister instructed you to bring back those demon treasures as much as possible?"
Zhao Hong said with some embarrassment: "It turns out that Brother You, you already know, so can we consider it... ”
I raised my hand to interrupt Zhao Hong's words again, and asked Zhao Hong, "Then do you know why I was promoted by the senior brother in charge to serve as the captain of this demon search team?"
Zhao Hong said cautiously: "Isn't it because of the Kunlun faction... ”
I smiled and pointed at Zhao Hong casually and said, "You guys... It's still too vulgar, and there are too many things I can't tell you, but I can tell you with great certainty that our Kunlun Sect doesn't care about this little thing in the Demon Kingdom at all. "Just kidding! Not to mention anything else, just the treasure house that the senior brother in charge of the sect took me into before I left, the things in it can't be used by our Kunlun sect disciples, how can we care about these things in the demon kingdom.
"Let me tell you, just because I advocated directly destroying the things in the ruins of the Demon Kingdom, I was promoted by the senior brother in charge to be the captain of this demon search team. These Demon Dao treasures seem to be very tempting, but have you ever thought that if we take these secret treasures back, it will definitely be a big trouble. I said calmly.
Zhao Hong asked a little puzzled: "Wouldn't it be a good thing if we could use these things to deal with the Demon Dao in turn?
I said patiently, "You think, let's not mention how difficult it is for us to get these things back. Even if we can take it back, where will we get it? Dayu Kingdom? When it comes to Dayu Kingdom, will they obediently take it out and distribute it to others? If the news of the treasure we bring back spreads, it is very likely that when we have just stepped into Zhongzhou, all forces will come to compete for this batch of things. ”
I continued: "Also, these things are the things of the Demon Dao in the final analysis, and none of us can say what can be used and what can't. The Demon Dao Secret Room discovered by the Taiyue Sect had taken them hundreds of years to figure out what was inside. And these problems could lead to the collapse of Middle-earth's first full-scale union in thousands of years. That's not all, if the Demon Dao has a chance to take advantage of it during this period, people can take it back, but they can directly use these things against us. In that case, we're really shooting ourselves in the foot. ”
After listening to my words, Zhao Hong lowered his head and thought for a moment, and said to me: "Yes, Brother You, what you said makes sense. In the final analysis, countries are too greedy and want to take this opportunity to develop their own power. But if you really calm down and weigh the pros and cons, it is the best choice to destroy these things directly, and if you are lucky, it will inevitably cause a catastrophe. ”
I threw the wine gourd to Zhao Hong and said, "You are right to think so, I will say that in my eyes, I will not choose the wrong person, this is what a person with the overall situation in mind should say." General Zhao, you will definitely become a generation of famous generals in the future!"
Zhao Hong took a big sip of wine and said: "I don't dare to think about becoming a generation of famous generals now, but after being nurtured by you for so long, Brother You, I am now also thinking about the justice that belongs to me Zhao Hong." ”。。。。
The next morning, we disguised ourselves with leaves, trying not to be spotted as the three of us moved through the jungle. Fortunately, the whole island was in a dark state all day, and with the jungle everywhere to cover us, we were able to explore most of the island in a whole day. During this time, we also encountered several patrol teams, but we avoided them in advance.
