Chapter 175: Breaking the Dilemma
"Your Lord," the guard raised his head and glanced at the sky quickly, then lowered his voice, "That prince sent his men to the Northland...... Isn't it for the place where the two sides are fighting...... Someone sent to explore the way? ”
There was a hint of uncertainty in the guard's words. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Put yourself in the shoes of a bystander and speculate on what others really think...... It's always been difficult!
There is some truth in the statement of the escort in the eyes of ordinary people, but the escort of the sea country is not an ordinary person.
Therefore, Tianfang immediately denied his claim!
"Of course not!"
Tianfang had always held the letter in his hand, and now he heard the guard's words and glanced sideways at him.
Tianfang lowered his eyelashes, thought for a while, and continued, "The letter that came clearly said what had happened. ”
The eyes of the rest of the people in the room were once again focused on Tianfang alone.
"Because our men went to the Northland first, they already knew the terrain in that area in advance."
Before the people sent to set off, Tianfang specially took care of the terrain when they arrived in the north.
Tianfang tuantuan gathered the letter paper in his hand, and said in a slow tone: "They followed each other's whereabouts, and they also tracked in the north for a while. ”
It's rare that the people sent by the Northland have a keen sense of touch and can actually grasp the movements, and it's really a party for these people to be sent in advance!
Tianfang also heard that they had arrived in the Northland, and soon set out to find a suitable place to live in that area, and even considered his little sister.
It is not an exaggeration to describe it in one sentence, and it is indeed very attentive to doing things.
Tianfang retracted his thoughts, frowned and looked at him again, "But the location where the other party went was not the main battlefield at all, but in the deep mountains in that area. ”
Tianfang turned around, glanced at a few people in the room, and said, "I don't think it's strange that he sent a secret ambush to track the whereabouts of the little junior sister in the nearby mountains." ”
Tianfang lowered his head and said: "It is more reasonable for him to send people to the main battlefield to spy on the terrain in advance." ”
"But no, what is he going to do in the uninhabited mountains of the Northland?"
Tianfang lowered his voice and said as if muttering to himself: "The terrain in that area is extremely high, and it is even difficult to find a road, and at this time it is already snowing heavily and the mountains are even more difficult to walk. ”
That man...... What the hell are you going to do?!
"Lord," the guard thought for a moment and asked, "Is it that the other party has used a trick to deliberately lead our people into the mountains in several ways, but they are actually ...... halfway?"
The companion next to him looked at this guy with a headache, and immediately reached out and pulled his sleeve.
I've seen pig teammates, but I've never seen such a stupid one.
As soon as he said this, wasn't he saying that the guards who had been sent to the Northland in advance were not doing well?
I can't even do a tracking task, do you have a mandate from the master?
What's the difference between this and a black complaint?!
The guard was pulled by his companion, regretted his speech, and suddenly blushed, the problem is that the words have been spoken, and it is impossible to take them back.
He couldn't think of a remedy, so he simply lowered his head and stopped talking.
"It's not impossible, but it's very unlikely."
Heaven let it go for granted.
He didn't seem to see the embarrassing scene before, and he ignored the guard's embarrassed look at the moment.
Tianfang thought about it and said: "Our people follow very closely, and it is unlikely that they will follow the wrong route halfway." ”
Tianfang's tone is calm and his attitude is also very peaceful, that is, he is stating the facts objectively, without too much emotion.
The companion replied: "It is extremely cold in the mountains in that area, and it is indeed a little suspicious to go there in the winter. ”
"I said of the message from the Northland last time," his companion paused, then looked at the sky and said, "Our people say that the terrain in the mountains in that area is complicated, and it is easy to get lost. ”
Hearing this, Tianfang nodded, he paced back and forth in the room a few laps, stopped in the corner of the room, looked at them and asked, "It's late at night, why haven't you rested?" ”
"Are you going to wait here until I come back? Got something to say? ”
The guard, who was pulled by his companions just now and faced an embarrassing scene, immediately came to his senses when he heard this.
He raised his head and blinked, looked at the sky and said, "Lord, let's watch the movement of the official road at the window, and we also hear some movement next door to the post station. ”
Tianfang's eyes moved, looking at him without speaking.
"Lord, it seems that there was a group of strangers in the shop next door, and it looks quite suspicious," the guard asked after thinking for a moment, "Lord, did you see anything wrong with them in the store at that time?" ”
After the guard finished speaking, he looked at Tianfang with a hint of doubt in his eyes.
These few of them were watching the movement outside in the post station, in the middle of the night, of course, they didn't see it so clearly, the sky was different, he stayed in the store.
"They don't seem to be doing well in the vicinity," Tianfang paused and continued, "I'm in a hurry to get to the north now, I should be going to recover my life." ”
The situation was similar to what the guards had guessed.
"Lord, about the aliens...... When the war in the Northland begins, which side are they on? ”
The guard couldn't help but look at Tianfang and asked.
Tianfang glanced at him and didn't speak.
His companion's face froze, and then he gently tugged at the guard's arm, silently reminding him not to talk too much.
Tianfang looked at the guards who were talking, and said with a smile in his eyes.
"The hustle and bustle of the world is all for profit, and the hustle and bustle of the world is for profit, it depends on how the two sides talk about the conditions."
After Tianfang pondered it, he said affirmatively: "It's nothing more than a private contact, the chips thrown by both sides, let's see which side is more tempting!" ”
"What's the hurry, if I say they're not sure at the moment, do you believe it or not?"
"Believe, believe, believe, absolutely!"
The guards were busy.
Tianfang smiled when he heard this: "Then what are you still doing in a daze, go to rest when you should rest, tomorrow will not delay in the morning." ”
After saying that, Tianfang walked over to the two injured guards, checked their pulses, and whispered, "I'll treat them when we have time to stay at the next stop." ”
"I used some methods when I was at the bottom, and now the toxicity is suppressed, so it's okay for the time being."
Tianfang paused, and said: "But it's still the same sentence, before the residual poison is cleared, you are not allowed to drink alcohol along the way." ”
"It's a drop of wine that can't be touched, you must remember!"
Tianfang added.
"Yes, Lord!" The two replied in unison.
...... In the second half of the night, in the shop next to the inn.
The young man sent away a group of guests who were temporarily staying for dinner, and there were no cars, horses and pedestrians passing on the official road next to the post station.
He walked into the courtyard and looked in the direction of the inn, where there was silence, and it seemed that all the people who had stayed were resting.
The young man turned back into the hall, where only two customers were sitting at a table against the wall and napping.
They drank too much, so they probably slept on their stomachs until dawn, and then went on their way.
The young man's gaze lingered on them for a moment, and the two slept soundly, snoring one after another sounded in the hall.
Such guests are not uncommon, as one or two are almost always met every night.
Most of the customers who like to drink alcohol simply rest in the store, anyway, their store is next to the station.
The young man went to the backyard and saw the cook also napping in the room next to the stove.
The corners of his mouth twitched, and he walked to the room in the backyard where the miscellaneous items were piled up.
There is a cage hanging under the eaves, and the birds in the cage look shiny and very energetic.
The young man entered the house, and the lights came on in the room.
After a short while, he walked out with one more thing in his hand.
The young man removed the hanging cage and carefully tied the note to the bird's leg.
Looking at the birds flapping their wings and flying away, the corners of his mouth smiled again.
...... "Xiaoling, what are you going to do if you push me away?" The boy's voice rang out from behind me.
I ignored him, frowned and thought, and stood in front of the stone wall.
I've been thinking about that scene, the figure I drew on the stone wall...... What exactly is it like?
Even if it took a while, I was sure I would eventually remember.
Because at that time, I saw Yun Chu's figure drawn with gravel on the craggy stone wall, and I was extremely impressed.
And I am not the only one who witnessed that process.
I don't think I've ever thought about it before, because the person next to me is not Yunchu.
The same scene, in fact, if you think about it carefully, I have seen it, and that one time in the underground walkway is the best example.
When walking in the underpass, there are also hidden dangers everywhere, and several times encountered tricky situations.
Maybe it was because of Yun Chu's strength, I ignored some details at that time, and felt that the road went a little smoother than I expected.
Coupled with Yun Chu by my side, even if it is a dangerous situation, it has a little more sweet taste.
The feeling of being with him is completely different.
The tsundere boy around me...... His kung fu should not be as good as Chen Yuqing, but even the latter, it was with the help of Yun Chu that he could successfully complete the task.
I regret that I never made the most of my time with Yun Chu, I should have learned more.
I have the best teacher in the world, but it's a pity that I'm ......
Frustrated, coupled with an effort to recall the time elapsed, the tsundere boy on the side couldn't help but step forward and grab my arm again.
"Xiaoling, have you fallen into evil? Silent, what's going on? ”
"Xiaoling, what are you doing with your dagger!"
I gave him a cold look, pushed away the hand that was about to grab my arm, and suddenly the image flashed in my mind.
In the next second, as if I had been empowered, I smoothly drew the figure on the stone wall.
"Xiaoling, what are you...... What are you doing......" The tsundere boy's eyes suddenly widened, and he quickly stepped forward to block me, his fingers running along the figure I had drawn on the stone wall, and he stared blankly.
After a few seconds, he turned his head and asked strangely, "Xiaoling, how are you ...... What does this mean, ......"
"Young Master, you hit here, this point!" I pointed to a spot on the stone wall, "You force here!" ”
Same words, but this time it was just me who spoke.
"I've retreated, I'm pretty sure that if you hit here, you should be able to break through the stone wall."
After that, I looked at him and turned back to the position where I had been waiting for Uncle Decline.
I was walking in the cave passage, and when I saw my uncle seeing me coming back, he immediately approached me and asked, "Xiaolin, you don't have to quarrel with him, it's up to him to decide what he wants to do." ”
I looked at Uncle Decrepit and smiled and said, "Uncle, I've done it, it's up to the eldest young master's strength at this moment." ”
After a pause, I continued, "I'm glad he delayed for so long, and I was able to help a little at the end." ”
The boy glanced at us from a distance.
The look of surprise in his eyes hadn't faded, but he hadn't followed me again.
Maybe you're planning to try it out first to see what happens!
I looked at his back as he stood in front of the stone wall.
In fact, I know very well in my heart that this time the situation is different from the last time.
The difference is that last time, Yun Chu needed to make a judgment throughout the whole process, and this time, the tsundere boy has already circled the most likely range, but he just needs the last thrust.
It's like the firewood is ready, and finally the flint is missing and ignited.
"Uncle, I think we have to retreat away for safety."
I turned my head to look at Uncle Decay and said, and then I took the initiative to go to the side first.
In this way, we are further away from the tsundere boy.
When I got to a position where I felt safe, I crouched down and was silent, my eyes fixed on the direction of the stone wall where the tsundere boy was.
...... I heard a shout, and immediately there was a sound!
I couldn't see how the tsundere boy was working on the stone wall, but the passage was dusty and the rubble was rolling to the ground.
It's been a long time, and I have to say that it's really ...... Finish!
When the dust settled, I could see that the boy was still standing by the stone wall of the passage, which meant that he could not get through this place with a single effort.
However, looking at the scattered rocks clearly, it means that it is still effective, and even the sound of water in the distance is clearer, which means that the stone wall has become thinner!
After all, the age of the tsundere boy, with his skills, may not be as good as Chen Yuqing, you must know that that person can't do it at one time!
Understandably, I was wondering if I should go over and see if the boy was hurt, or wait for him to rest for a while before continuing.
I was thinking about it, but I didn't expect the boy to pause and then make a move.
I took the step back again, and let the old man next to me also step back.
This time the sound was louder than the last time, and it suddenly sounded, and the distance was not too far after all, like the sound of cannons from the quarrying of the mountain.
The gravel rolled down, and the dust was even bigger, bigger than the first time.
...... I got up from the ground, shook off the dust and coughed a few times.
Finally, when the dust cleared a little, I saw the boy staying by the stone wall clearly, and felt the wind coming from that direction.
And this time, I can hear the water clearly! (To be continued.) )
