Chapter 137: The strength of the other party

The Sealand army passed through the official road post station and continued forward.

Mo Yan rode a horse and followed the cart all the way.

The distance between Wang Shi and the Northland is gradually narrowing.

Every now and then, he glanced sideways into the car.

When the mountain wind blows, you can already feel the chill.

This is especially true all the way to the northeast!

Since the last stop, has it been extra quiet?

Mo Yan was guessing what the person in the car was thinking at the moment.

He only felt that those uncertain secret guards had been in and out a few times along the way, which was a little incomprehensible.

Mo Yan knew that they must be planning a new plan.

Calculating the itinerary, if he didn't stop walking like this, it would take a few days to reach the Northland, and he had read the map.

There was a bit of turmoil in the ranks of the royal division, and the empress suppressed it with unprecedented decisive means.

Among them, Mo Yan, who has rarely left Yun Chu's side since Gu Qimei was stopped that night, and rarely went to the army to inquire is not very clear.

A little bit of news came intermittently, and even less went to the National Teacher.

The empress didn't seem to want Yun Chu to work hard for these trivial matters in the army.

The north is approaching, and there are more important things waiting for the national teacher, waiting for him to plan and strategize.

Mo Yan rode on the horse, and couldn't help but sigh after thinking about it.

When he arrived in the Northland, Gongzi had to work hard, and to this day Mo Yan didn't understand why Yun Chu had to come to Sealand to do this.

What was involved in the war in the Northland that attracted Childe to be so interested?

When the march passed the turn, he saw Sister Gu Qimei Gu who had dismounted and stood under the tree waiting for him, Mo Yan frowned.

The people around the empress are probably here to speak for her?

Why don't you know how to stop?!

Mo Yan whispered a few words close to the car window, and heard Yun Chu's faint response.

Then, he quickened his horse's speed and galloped forward, reaching the tree where Gu Qimei was stationing.

"What's the matter with you?"

There was a hint of worry in my mind, a worry about the road ahead.

Even so, I knew I had to walk through the thorn bushes to get to the bottom of the cliff.

There is a possibility that we could get closer to the truth, at least now that I think about it.

But what kind of scene awaits me ahead?

In the way I used to travel, there have been countless times when I was so nervous today, and I can't say that I am used to it, but I can be regarded as seeing too much.

However, when it comes to companions who are on the road together, there is always a pimple in their hearts.

Uncle asked me about the whereabouts of the tsundere boy before, and he knew that the boy had gone to open the way.

When the boy left, he bluntly said that the road ahead was dangerous, and tried to persuade me to leave, even when I hesitated, he did not hesitate to knock me unconscious.

I have a bad feeling!

If the uncle is familiar with the environment, is the tsundere boy already in crisis at this time?

I bet he wouldn't have been willing to tell the boy even if he knew about the trap.

Wrong! He wouldn't tell the boy.

Why did he say it? Along the way, there were repeated mismatches between the two, and they just had a chance to turn over.

Uncle Decay likes to be opportunistic, can he still seize this opportunity?

If he really wants to say it, he will definitely have some strings attached.

The boy knew nothing about the road ahead, and although he didn't like his uncle, he didn't expect it when I was with him.

I couldn't think of it, and he couldn't think of my uncle's actions.

What will they say when they meet?

A terrifying thought flashed through my mind, and for a moment I froze in place.

Uncle is not planning to use me as a target?!

The tsundere boy, I'm most afraid that my uncle will find a reason to scold him, such as me falling into a pit or something.

I must have woken up sooner than he expected, and even then, I was still delayed in setting out to catch up.

I don't know if the tsundere boy has been tricked now!

If the uncle's goal is indeed ahead, he will definitely find a way to make the rest of the idle people disappear.

He returned my favor and separated me, and as long as the tsundere boy would become an obstacle, what way would he treat me?

Even if I think about it more clearly, he won't use me as an excuse, what else?

I'm afraid it's okay to knock out the boy, but if I can't get the uncle, he will

I suppressed the uneasiness in my heart, and while convincing myself that the tsundere boy had kung fu and would not be calculated by him, I walked through the dense thorn forest.

Looking up, I walked to the edge of the thorns, and finally saw the entrance to a cave.

I stopped, stood and looked ahead, wondering if both of them had gone in.

Didn't the eldest young master say that he would turn around and walk with us once he found something out of the way, or did he take a step ahead of his curiosity and plan to go into the cave to explore the way?

I was beating a drum in my heart and ran as fast as I could.

Standing at the mouth of the cave, I paused, took a deep breath, and walked inside

Tianfang and two guards shuttled through the dense forest along the direction of the stream.

After walking for about half an hour, the guards followed behind Tianfang, and the road conditions were always very difficult.

Because of the sparsely populated relationship in this area, the vegetation and thorns are extremely lush.

Sometimes they even need to use the tools they carry with them to open the way.

Guards passed before them, leaving traces in the forest, and it was customary to have markings carved into trees or roadside stones at intervals.

Looking at it against the mark, it pointed out the direction, and it was relatively easy to walk a little.

The guards shuttled through the woods, and the two of them didn't bother to talk, not at all as relaxed as they had been in the open area by the stream at the beginning.

The environment here invisibly creates a certain pressure on people, that is, it seems that the crisis will lurk in the depths of the dense forest reflected in the dim light.

Suddenly, a familiar signal came from my ears, which was used as a warning signal in the Sea Guards.

"Lord!" The accompanying guard, a spirit, looked at the sky and said, "It's our people, it's not far from here!" ”

The sound heard countless times in the training place is a signal of communication between the guards of the Sea Kingdom, and it sounds like the people who are moving forward have encountered an emergency!

"Well," Tianfang had already sensed that something was wrong, and when he heard this, he immediately said in a deep voice, "Follow the sound, as soon as possible!" ”

With that, he set off first, passing quickly

The light in the dense forest is much darker than outside.

Tianfang's body was as fast as lightning, followed by two guards.

In the dimly lit forest, the mountain wind blows and blows through the trees, and all kinds of subtle sounds are mixed in the ears.

Because of this, the previous signal was particularly abrupt.

Judging by the direction of the sound, the distance is not far away.

Tianfang's gaze turned to the forest on one side, and changed direction, and there was a large bush of thorns on the other side that seemed to have been cut off by a sharp weapon, and it looked different from the surrounding scenery.

Have you ever had a fight?

The two guards followed and arrived, chasing Tianfang's figure.

At this moment, when they saw the situation in front of them, they couldn't help but show a look of surprise and glanced at each other.

"Lord!"

The guard shouted behind Tianfang.

He made no reply, and walked along the thorn bush until he saw the man lying to the ground under a tree deep in the forest.

The companion was taken aback, and hurriedly walked around from behind the sky.

Lying on the ground was one of the guards who came to the mountains to follow the trail of the little sister.

Earlier, they had seen the markings at the fork in the stream, and the two of them were following in different directions.

The guard was covered in blood and fell to the ground unconscious.

Tianfang stepped forward to take a closer look at his injuries.

Not only is there a physical injury, but it seems that some unknown poison has been used.

"Lord!" Seeing that the companions who were ahead of the curve were like this, the remaining two guards who were standing there with good looks were in mixed feelings.

"The wound is not fatal, but the poison on his body is more tricky."

Tianfang pondered for a moment and then looked at the guard.

"What then, Lord?"

The guard was stunned for a moment, and looked at Tianfang.

Tianfang was silent, his expression was a little embarrassed, and after a few seconds, he said in a light tone: "This poison can't be suppressed, it can only be cured here." ”

"Lord, in this way, the itinerary we are tracking is not enough"

As the guard spoke, he looked at Tianfang's expression.

"What the other party wants, or that's the result."

Tianfang's tone couldn't hear joy and anger, he turned his eyes and looked into the depths of the woods and said: "It's a light effort, I've already run away, and there's no need to track." ”

"Besides, if you meet, you two together may not be able to beat that person."

The strength of the other party in the mouth of the Lord is so strong! The guards were dumbfounded.

Then, the guard looked at his companion with a puzzled look in his eyes.

"That's it, it's right here."

Tianfang looked at the guards and quickly made a decision: "You go back along the road just now and go to another fork in the road to find someone." ”

Since one of the guards was injured like this, the other party was obviously prepared.

If another person is also injured, the guards must find that person and bring it with them.

Tianfang has no skills, and he can't ignore it.

The guard nodded, and before leaving, he whispered, "Lord, this injury"

"It's not fatal," Tianfang said calmly, "It's just a bit of work, mainly because the poison in the body is quite tricky." ”

"Yes!" The two of them exchanged glances and quickly turned back in the direction they had come.

If another companion is also wounded, he must be brought over to the Lord for healing as soon as possible

The team of three was temporarily split into two sides.

Tianfang stayed at the place where the guard was found, first treating his subordinates, while the remaining two guards were busy looking for another companion who had taken a fork in the road.

They passed through the woods, and raced against time to reach the place where the stream flowed, and only stopped for a short rest.

One of the guards looked at his companion and said, "With the Lord here, that guy's injuries should be fine, right?" ”

He was worried about his partner who was also the protector of the sea country.

The companion responded: "Didn't the Lord say that the wound is easy to heal, but the difficulty lies in the poison in his body." ”

"It can be seen that it is really tricky to make the Lord say a difficult word."

The guard sat by the stream and looked up at the dense forest barrier in the distance, shrouded in layers, and it looked like a feeling of oppression.

Thinking of the Lord's previous evaluation of the assassin, the doubts in his heart still did not disappear.

Looking at his companion, the guard lowered his voice and said, "The Lord said that we are not that person's opponent combined."

He paused, and even he was a little speechless when he said this.

It is a bit difficult to admit that the kung fu of people in the same path is better than oneself, because everyone who enters this industry is a little arrogant.

But the Lord will not say such things lightly, unless they are indeed inferior.

Turning his head to stare at his companion, the guard continued, "What do you think about this matter?" “

"I haven't met it, it's hard to say," the companion said in a cautious tone and with a solemn expression, "But that person has the ability to hurt our person, and his rank is definitely not low." ”

"You saw him just now."

The companion said thoughtfully: "In the past few years, we have encountered rare real masters. ”

"Could it be that they set a trap and ambush them secretly?"

The guard said in a low voice: "Or maybe our people are in a hurry, and they are in a hurry to find the little junior sister before they find someone's way for a while." ”

The companion looked at him and said in a serious tone: "No, what the Lord said, it means that we have no chance of winning if we meet that person head-on." ”

The guard said a little dejectedly: "In this way, if we meet an opponent on the way to find someone, wouldn't it?"

"Are you scared?" The companion laughed.

The guard shook his head: "I'm not afraid, I'm just worried that I won't be able to bring people back smoothly." ”

The Lord has decreed that if another guard is found there, he must be taken to the same place for healing.

His companion's eyes moved, and just as he was about to answer, a familiar voice pierced the silence in the forest.

Not good! The same signal sounded a second time!

Such warning signals are issued when the people of the sea country encounter a crisis, a real crisis!

"It's a second time!" The guard gritted his teeth.

"Don't delay, hurry up and find someone!" The companion immediately urged.

The two of them quickly tracked in the direction from which the sound came.

They heard the signal just now, and the Lord will hear it too.

Now the Lord can't do without the guard who needs to be healed, and they have to buy time to find the injured other person as quickly as possible.

The dense forest was unsettlingly quiet except for the sound of the wind.

Skirting the trees and following the stream, the two guards reached a clearing surrounded by trees with a wider view.

There was no one on the ground, and from a distance, some leaves were piled up on the ground.

First of all, I looked at the situation around me, and just as the Lord said, the one who started it did it lightly!

By the time they arrived, they were long gone.

"Is it a trap?"

The guard looked at his companion, stopped, and the two of them ran quickly.

Sure enough, in the clearing in the forest, I saw a familiar pit.

They had already seen similar traps in the misty forest, and the misty forest that had been avoided by their companions had been reminded by their companions before, and it was their companions who had fallen into the same way

"It's important to save people!" (To be continued.) )
