Chapter 68 Cutting off transport lines
There was one thing that Lu Linlan didn't take out to discuss. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info and Lin Rui, Huyan Xiangming, and Qiu Shuyi did not mention it. That thing is, in this rattan mine, there are no Yuanying monks.
Lu Linlan didn't discuss it, and Lin Rui didn't mention it, probably because this should be common sense. Huyan Xiangming and Qiu Shuyi didn't mention it, probably because they didn't think about it.
So, what is this thing that should belong to common sense?
The answer is: no.
――
This area belongs to the east of the Kebaigenbo continent. Compared with the three sects in the extreme north that Lu Linlan crossed over, the cultivation of immortals is more developed.
At the beginning, the Yanlong Sect, the Feiyun Sect, and the Jushi Sect in the Extreme North all had a Yuan Infant each, and they were all in retreat for many years. In other words, it is very likely that there is no Yuan Baby, but the truth is just covered up.
The Dong Yuan faction has sixteen people in the Yuan infant period. Later, Lu Linlan learned that the Eastern Yuan faction was a larger sect in the east of the mainland. Correspondingly, the Washo Pavilion and the Celestial Crane Sect are also larger sects. It can also be inferred that the Dusheng Pavilion and the Heavenly Crane Sect also have about fifteen Yuan Babies respectively.
But the White Light Sect, the Heavenly Thunder Gang, and the Xianglong Gang are not good. These three gangs are considered relatively small sects. I don't know if there are Yuanying monks, but even if there are, there will be one or two at most, just like the Yanlong Sect.
It is conceivable that the only one or two Yuanying monks who have survived the fruits are impossible to send to the mines in remote areas.
Therefore, it can be judged that before the intervention of the Washo Pavilion and the Heavenly Crane Sect, there was absolutely no Yuan Ying in the vine stone mine.
――
The next thing that needs to be thought about is whether there will be a Yuan Infant stationed after the intervention of the Watari Pavilion and the Heavenly Crane Sect.
This question is very complicated, and it is not easy to come up with an answer. However, from the actions of the Eastern Yuan faction, we can get a reference answer.
What did the TEA faction do?
Xuancheng was in charge and revealed the information of the mine to Lu Linlan in the posture of "good news". In addition, five storage rings were lent.
In other words, the Dongyuan faction did not take any action.
The fact that the Dongyuan faction did not take action did not directly mean that there was no oil and water in the rattan stone mine, but that the rattan stone mine, after the intervention of the Washokaku and the Tianhe faction, had no oil and water.
Of course, there is no oil and water, which is relative to the entire sect of the Eastern Yuan School. If it is compared to a certain monk, and that monk is only a foundation building monk, then the oil and water are definitely leveraged.
Therefore, the news of the rattan stone mine can be called "good news" for Lu Linlan.
Therefore, the fact that there is no yuan baby in the mine can be confirmed from two aspects.
First, the Dongyuan faction believes that the mine has no oil and water, which means that it is not worth sending a living force to the mine.
The second is that if there is a yuan baby in the mine, then the head of Xuancheng will reveal the news to Lu Linlan, which is equivalent to sending Lu Linlan to death. Actually, is it necessary for Xuan Cheng to send Lu Linlan to death? No.
There was once Sang Deyu, the head of the Yanlong Sect, as an example. Let Lu Linlan know that the head of the sect does things, and everything starts from the interests of the sect. found that he was a "talent", and the first choice was mostly to woo. It's just that Xuan Cheng and Sang Deyu have different ways of getting together.
Therefore, Xuan Cheng's move to disclose the news to Lu Linlan is an act of showing favor to Lu Linlan. Moreover, it can also be said that when Xuancheng sent someone to inquire about the news, he may have focused on exploring whether there was a baby in the mine.
――
Dai Liangji, in the late Jindan period, the highest cultivator of the White Light Sect, is now stationed in the mine.
The White Light Sect does not have a Yuan Baby, nor does the Heavenly Thunder Gang, while the Xianglong Sect has a Yuan Baby. If it was only the White Light Sect, or the Tianlei Gang alone, they would definitely not dare to argue with the Xianglong Sect. But after the two factions unite, they will be able to contend with each other.
The Dusheng Pavilion and the Heavenly Crane Sect naturally have more Yuan Infants, but at the same time, those two big factions will also have more things. More importantly, since you have grown into a big sect, there will inevitably be guidelines for your actions. It is impossible to blatantly embezzle the interests of small sects. Therefore, when Wataikaku intervened, it was in a negotiated way, not in a violent way. The same was true of the later Tianhe faction.
In fact, in this mine jointly controlled by five factions, there are only three Jin Dan among the guards. Both the Washokaku and the Celestial Crane faction only sent foundation building monks. Only the relatively weak White Light Sect, the Heavenly Thunder Gang, and the Xianglong Sect sent Jin Dan.
The Jin Dan of the Tianlei Gang is also in the late stage. The Jindan of the Xianglong faction is in the middle stage. In contrast, Dai Liangji, the late stage of Jindan of the White Light Sect, has the strongest actual combat ability.
But this does not mean that everything in the mine is up to Dai Liangji.
Whoever has the final say, theoretically, it is naturally the five factions that have the final say. In fact, even if the garrisons of the Watari Pavilion and the Tianhe Sect are only building the foundation, the two of them have a greater right to speak.
After those two people, it stands to reason that the Xianglong faction should have a greater say, but this is not the case. Because the people of the Watsusheng Pavilion and the Tianhe faction gave face, it was Dai Liangji who had a greater right to speak.
――
There are a lot of things in the mine, and they are very miscellaneous and trivial. One of the things that is done is to send out the excavated rattan stones on a regular basis.
At this time, it is no longer just the five factions of the mine. The co-operation actually includes the processing and other links in the future. Therefore, instead of sending the rattan stone to the five factions separately, it is sent to a certain place for processing.
After processing, there is also the distribution link. The destination of the distribution is not the five factions, but some smelting places that require rattan stone. In the end, what the five factions divided was the products and spirit stones of those smelting places.
Okay, now it's the first step, get the rattan mine out.
The starting point is naturally the rattan mine. The destination is a processing point 12,000 kilometers away.
Who sends?
The main force is the foundation monks. This is mainly due to the fact that the Tsukiki Monk is able to fly with a sword.
The one who escorted it was Dai Liangji.
――
On this day, the mine counted the rattan stone produced and divided it into twenty-four storage bags, which were transported by six foundation building monks. Each of the six foundation monks carried four storage bags. Dai Liangji, who was escorted, did not have to.
Once you've got it all sorted out, head out.
Dai Liangji, as a Jindan, can also fly in the sky. But flying in the sky consumes more spiritual power, and the slower he flies, the more difficult it becomes, so he is also the same sword.
The speed at which he flew needed to depend on the speed of the six foundation building monks, and he couldn't fly forward all at once.
The six foundation building monks usually fly at a speed of about 70 kilometers per hour, and the flight altitude can reach 6,000 meters. However, all around the mine, it is ice and snow. Both the altitude and speed of the flight will be affected. Therefore, the actual flight speed is only about 60 kilometers per hour, and the flight altitude is only about 500 meters.
Six foundation building monks were in front, and Dai Liangji was behind, flying towards the processing point.
After flying out like this for more than two hours, seven people suddenly fell down.
In the later stage of Dai Liangji Jindan, there will naturally be some remedies in the air. He saw that the six foundation-building monks in front of him had disappeared in a flash after they had been planted.
In the end, Dai Liangji himself failed to stay in the air for a long time and fell to the ground in the same way.
Why did it fall? Dai Liangji already knew the reason. Where: Spiritual power is blocked. Without spiritual power, naturally you can't fly.
――
A woman appeared in front of her, out of nothingness.
Dai Liangji immediately judged that the direction of the void must be what kind of formation. His six foundation-building monks must be trapped in that formation.
After looking at the person who came again, and seeing that he only had a mid-stage foundation cultivation, Dai Liangji was a little puzzled.
If you want to kill me in the late stage of Jindan, how can you come to the middle stage of foundation building?
If your spiritual power is blocked, isn't it still the same spiritual power that comes to you?
Yes, Dai Liangji is very experienced. He also knows about forbidden spirits. A large area of forbidden spirits is usually driven by formations, just like now, as long as they enter the control area, they can't use spiritual power. Small-scale forbidden spirits are usually driven by magic weapons, such as tying immortal ropes, or scattering elixirs, etc.
Dai Liangji clearly knew that he had not taken anything, at least not in this area, and in addition, he had not been hit by any magic weapon.
Therefore, he judged that if his spiritual power was blocked, the spiritual power of the people who came to him must also be blocked.
Each other's spiritual power is blocked, so what remains is the strength of the body and the proficiency of martial arts.
Let's fight!
Dai Liangji rolled over, picked up his flying sword, and prepared for the enemy.
But when I saw the person who came turned his hand over, a folding fan appeared in his hand - the person who came could actually take something out of the storage bag!
That is, there is no spiritual power, but there is spiritual power!
Seeing that the situation was not good, Dai Liangji immediately raised his sword and slashed a few times, and when he retreated, he wanted to run back.
As a result, only hearing the sound of "Zheng", Dai Liangji felt a tingling pain in his head, and he fell to the ground.
In the face of a strong enemy, if you fall down at this time, you will have no chance.
The woman's figure was fluttering, and when she passed Dai Liangji, she flicked the fan, and Dai Liangji was in a different place.
――
Lu Linlan took Dai Liangji's storage bag, floated out, walked out of the forbidden spirit array, and met Lin Rui. The two of them then bypassed the forbidden area, and Edgeworth flew away.
At this time, in the forbidden spirit area, in the Yellow Sand Thousand Layer Array, Hu Yan Xiangming also killed the six foundation building monks one after another.
According to the route explained by Lu Linlan, Huyan Xiang Ming made a formation, and then found Qiu Shuyi who was waiting outside, and the two retreated to a cave dug in a nearby mountain to rest.
About twenty days later, Lu Linlan and Lin Rui returned.
In the past 20 days, where have the two of them gone? They went to the rattan stone processing point and set fire to it.
Yes, the main thing is to set fires, not to kill people. The key point is to destroy the machinery, utensils, magic weapons and other things used to process spirit stones.
Nor is it completely destroyed. After all, after setting the fire, Lin Lu and the others withdrew.
Naturally, the people at the processing point will put out the fire. After putting out the fire, it is natural to repair the damaged things.
Of course, that's not something that can be fixed in a short period of time.
――
After Lin and Lu returned, they rested for a day, and then went out to reconnoiter the terrain.
What kind of terrain is it scouting? Mainly the terrain where people looking for mines are likely to take a detour.
As long as he found that kind of terrain, Lu Linlan would lay out the formation.
In this way, more than ten days passed.
――
According to the news given by Xuan Cheng, the rattan stone of the mine is usually delivered once a month. Now, almost a month has passed, but there is no one to be seen transporting the rattan mine. Did you miss it?
If you miss it, it doesn't matter. Anyway, the rattan stone will eventually be sent to the processing point.
This time, it was not Lin Lu and the others who acted alone, but brought Huyan Xiangming and Qiu Shuyi with them.
Four people, straight to the rattan factory processing point.
The look was about to arrive, but there was still no sign of the people who were transporting the rattan stones.
Lu Linlan made a gesture, and the four of them landed.
Lu Linlan said: "The terrain here is good. Even if those people are delivered, they will still pass by here when they return to the mine. We're setting up an ambush here. ”
Or the forbidden spirit plus the trapped array. After setting up the formation, Hu Yan Xiang Ming was left in the formation, and Qiu Shuyi was outside the formation.
Lu Linlan and Lin Rui continued to move forward and rushed to the processing point to check the situation.
As a result, Lu Lin and the others found that the processing point was still busy repairing the machinery, utensils, magic weapons and other things that were burned last time. And no one from the mine came.
It turned out that there was no leakage.
――
It was a good thing that it didn't slip through. But sometimes good things can turn into bad things.
There was no leakage in front, but as soon as the four of them rushed to the processing point, they had several more days to spare. came and went, and in half a month, it must have been missed. The group of people who missed it, the foundation monk was nothing, and he must have been trapped in the array. But the escorted Jin Dan, just like the person last time, as long as he didn't fall into the Yellow Sand Formation at the beginning, he would definitely break away from the Forbidden Spirit Formation later.
Thinking that when she returned and had to face a Jin Dan, Lu Linlan's face was not very good.
Let Lin Rui stare at the processing point, Lu Linlan drove the flying sword, and as soon as he turned a corner, he ran to the nearest city and bought a lot of blank array flags.
came back, called Lin Rui, set off to the north, and soon met Huyan Xiangming and Qiu Shuyi.
――
Didn't go any further.
Lu Linlan first explained the situation: "Now we have to discuss how to kill a Jin Dan." ”
Qiu Shuyi said: "I think the most important thing is not whether you can win or not, but that Jin Dan is likely to ignore us at all, he won't fight us at all, and just run away!"
Lin Rui said: "Won't it? A few of us, I who have cultivated the highest can only be in the late stage of foundation building." Brother Jindan had no reason to run away without a fight. ”
Qiu Shuyi said: "What you said applies to ordinary times. But that Jin Dan brought several Zhuji and was ambushed. The life and death of the monk is uncertain. And what about the golden pill? Maybe he tried to save it and then failed, maybe he didn't save it at all, so he just waited by for a while. Then, when that Jin Dan went on the road again, he was like a lost dog, and he didn't dare to cause trouble casually. ”
Huyan Xiangming asked: "By the way, I want to ask, if you don't use your sound attack and fight hard, can you two beat Jin Dan?"
Lin Rui said: "It shouldn't be able to beat it." ”
Lu Linlan said: "If it is the early stage of Jindan, it can be beaten." In the middle of Jindan, it can't be beaten. In the later stage of Jindan, it was impossible to fight hard at all. ”
The judgment that beat the early stage of Jindan is actually based on Lin Rui's judgment. In the early days of facing Jindan, although the two couldn't fight, they were able to fight for a long time. After a long time, Lu Linlan will be able to use a spell that specializes in restraining the opponent, and when the time comes, he will be able to turn defeat into victory.
Huyan Xiangming said: "In other words, as long as the person who was escorted for the second time was not in the late stage of Jindan, after experiencing the loss of his foundation building companions, and saw us again, most of them would have escaped?"
"Oh, so you agree with Qiu Shuyi?" Lin Rui asked.
Qiu Shuyi simply said: "I mean: you two hide, and I and Brother Huyan will show up." I believe that even if the other party is a foundation, he will not hide. ”
Lu Linlan thought back to the terrain along the way and found that it was more reasonable to set up the formation in front of him.
There are two reasonable ones. One is the proximity to the town where the processing point is located, and the escort will lower his vigilance. Second, it is also close to the town, so the appearance of Qiu Shuyi and Huyan Xiangming is relatively reasonable.
