Chapter 491: Looking for an opportunity to eavesdrop on the news
There was a sound in the dense grass, Yuwen Jue and Qingfeng quickly changed into the clothes of the two dead soldiers, the jade silkworm mask easily copied the appearance of the two soldiers, and after disposing of the two corpses casually, the three of them looked at each other, nodded, and walked towards the camp. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
As soon as they entered the fence, they met a soldier, who saw the three of them entering the fence, and immediately became suspicious, and asked, "What are you three doing out there?" ”
Qingfeng immediately laughed and said: "It's not all because of Zhang Xiaoer, he has a stomach trouble tonight, he is timid, so we will touch him and solve it in the distance." Brother, don't tell the general about this. ”
The soldier glanced at the three of Lingfeng and said, "Don't you know? Can't go out without special circumstances? ”
Lingfeng immediately took a note, stuffed a piece of silver into the soldier's hand, and said, "Brother, don't make a noise." ”
The soldier put away the money and said, "Don't let me see it again next time." ”
Yuwen said: "Yes, yes, yes." ”
Sending the soldier away, the three of them found a corner where no one was around, pretending to be patrolling, Ling Feng looked at the largest tent in the distance, and said, "We have to find a way to get close to there and see if we can get some information." ”
Qingfeng said, "We need to know the names of the two dead soldiers first." Otherwise, we can easily find out that something is wrong. ”
Yuwen Jue also nodded and said, "Yes, I don't know what that person's name is now, it is inevitable that the name will be called in this barracks, and it will be ...... when the time comes."
Ling Feng smiled and said, "My name is Zhang Xiaoer." ”
Qingfeng glanced at Ling Feng, he naturally knew that Ling Feng already knew the name he was now pretending to be that person, and he and Yuwen definitely didn't know, "Next, if there is anything, you go up first." "Qingfeng Road.
Lingfeng said: "This is easy to say. ”
The three of them were chatting, and at this moment, several soldiers came over, and the thin man in the lead greeted him and said, "Zhang Xiaoer, Wang Dali, Hu Yuhuai, why are you three still here?" ”
Ling Feng smiled suddenly, just now they were still worried about how to know the names of those two people, and now someone has come to tell them, but now he is not sure, that Wang Dali and Hu Yuhuai, is it now Qingfeng or Yuwen Jue? Almost instantly, he came up with a solution, patted Yuwen Jue's shoulder, and stammered: "Dali, don't you ask this big brother what he is looking for us?" ”
The man immediately frowned, looking at this Zhang Xiaoer's appearance, it was obvious that he had drunk, "I said Zhang Xiaoer, are you so drunk that you can't even tell the difference between Wang Dali and Hu Yuhuai?" Don't you know? You are not allowed to drink alcohol in the army, and you don't even know your commander? ”
Ling Feng pretended to be disapproving, and shook his head: "Chief, sir, I drank some wine just now, and my mind is a little unconscious, so I will recognize the wrong person." ”
The man looked at Lingfeng with a gloomy face, in fact, it was also Zhang Xiaoer, and said, "You know that you have violated the rules of the army, how to deal with you?" ”
Ling Feng's complexion changed greatly, "Long ...... Sir, I, I just saw something strange outside, and I wanted to go out and have a look, who knows...... You also know that I am timid, so I drank two sips of wine to strengthen my courage, who knew that after drinking, I felt dizzy......"
"yes, yes." Qingfeng and Yuwen decided immediately, "He did patrol outside and called us." ”
The man glanced at Ling Feng and said, "What did you find outside?" ”
Ling Feng shook his head and said, "I didn't find anything, but I did hear a strange noise, it should be a beast." ”
The man frowned, and secretly pondered for a moment, Hua Longfei had specially explained before, once camped, he must be strictly vigilant, since this Zhang Xiaoer heard the movement, whether it was a beast or not, he also had to take a look in person, "Zhang Xiaoer, where did you hear the movement, where is the direction?" ”
"Over there." Ling Feng pointed in a direction at random, and said.
But in my heart I sneered, since you want to go, then you go.
The man nodded, greeted the several soldiers who had followed him, and said as he walked: "It's shift time to wake up now, you violated military rules and drank alcohol without authorization, I will punish you for patrolling all night today, and train as usual tomorrow, you two, just accompany him." ”
Qingfeng and Yuwen pretended to smile bitterly and said reluctantly, "Yes." ”
When the man walked away, Qingfeng whispered: "Hu Yuhuai, let's go around this camp first." ”
Yuwen Jue didn't react at first that Qingfeng was talking about him, and after a while, he nodded and said, "Okay." ”
Lingfeng patted Yuwen Jue and said, "Remember, you are not Yuwen Jue now, it is Hu Yuhuai." ”
In front of almost every tent in the camp, a bonfire was burned, not for the soldiers to drink and barbecue, but to scare away the beasts.
And those tents were inhabited by officers of some status, and in the largest tent, the four young people who had cultivated to a high level rested there.
Even though it was late at night, there was still a sound of talk coming from inside.
It's just that when the three of Lingfeng pretended to patrol and passed by the largest tent, they couldn't stay too long, and they only heard one of them say that they would discuss it after the master came back, and they walked away.
After patrolling around the camp, the three of them also figured out the defense deployment of this camp.
The whole camp is in the shape of "mouth", basically there will be two or three people patrolling every ten zhang, the defense can be described as not showing, but the soldiers patrolling are all ordinary mortals, they can only guard against wild beasts, but they can not guard against the top masters.
And the purpose of the existence of those four young people is to deal with the sudden appearance of the supreme masters, the four of them, all of them are powerhouses of the seventh or eighth layer of the Taixuan Realm, if they are united, they are enough to compete with the powerhouses of the Xiaotian Realm.
In addition to observing the details of the camp, the three of them also heard when they talked to other soldiers that they were not a casual ordinary army, but an elite unit belonging to the Empire.
In this way, the three of Lingfeng couldn't help but think twice, Qingyu Gu must have been involved with the empire, and they could also borrow an army, but a powerhouse close to the Xiaotian Realm, plus four top masters of the Taixu Realm, with an army of several hundred people, came to this Imperial Horse Grassland, what is the intention?
Thinking about it, it was definitely not just to protect the three elders of Qingyu Valley.
……
Barren view, in the living room.
The Third Elder of Qingyu Valley sat on the chair with an indifferent expression, staring at the head of the Desolate Pavilion, waiting for him to reply.
The people outside only knew that he was the third elder of Qingyu Valley, but they didn't know his real name.
In fact, his name is Zhao Fang, he is powerful, low-key, does not like to fight, and is still cultivating in Qingyu Valley, just some time ago, the head of Qingyu Valley suddenly ordered Zhao Fang to take people to the barren temple to discuss major matters.
Decades of not asking about the world, but Zhao Fang is still immortal, this trip not only brought his four powerful disciples, Hua Longfei, Tian Yin, Feng Gu, and Yang Zangtian with him, but also borrowed an army from an old friend in a high position.
As to what he will do with this army, we will know later.
And the middle-aged man who was silent and embarrassed was the head of the Desolate Temple, he was the same as Zhao Fang, he was a person who didn't like to ask about the world, and during his tenure as the head of the Desolate View, he didn't like to publicize it, not only strictly restricting the disciples not to hurt the surrounding herdsmen, but also used great courage to build a mysterious passage to the Desolate View.
With the existence of this mysterious passage, people from the outside world only know the name of the Desolate Temple, but they don't know the specific location of this sect.
However, even if the barren Dao people are so low-key, they still can't escape the constant harassment of all forces, as for the reason, it is that the Yuma Grassland is located on the border of the Chongzhen Empire, and Taizhou, Taichuan, Pingshui, Jiangyang and other places are connected to form a border defense line, the geographical location is very important, the Chongzhen Empire and the neighboring Tianyu have friction from time to time, and the border often burns with war, and in addition to the army, those immortal cultivators, there are also many to join the battle.
Maybe they are not fighting for the survival of their family and country, but they all have their own interests in it, but once the Xiuxian sect participates in the war, it will become an extremely headache for the high-level of the two countries.
It is precisely for these reasons that the Chongzhen Empire and the Tianyu Empire do not hesitate to spend countless gold and silver treasures to envelop the Immortal Cultivation Sect.
It's just that the barren Daoist will politely refuse no matter which country invites them, so that the high-level of the empire who provoked the fire did not dare to send troops easily, and later, the high-level people came up with a way, they had a hostile and extremely delicate cooperative relationship with Taibai Immortal Mountain, so they asked Qiu Zheng, the head of Taibai Immortal Mountain, to help solve this matter.
Taibai Immortal Mountain is out of the horse, the effect is naturally much better, just when the barren Taoist people are about to agree to come down, Qingyugu doesn't know where to get the news, and he has also sent a letter, he will visit the barren view in the near future, and will give a generous gift to the barren view.
The so-called generous gift, now in front of the Desolate Daoist, he has no intention of accepting it at all, if it becomes a subsidiary force of Qingyu Valley, the Desolate View will definitely become a thorn in the side of the empire and Taibai Immortal Mountain, a thorn in the flesh, they will definitely do everything possible to pull out this thorn.
However, he couldn't refuse too decisively, offended Qingyu Valley, and the barren view was also not happy.
"How is the head of the barren family thinking about it?" Zhao Fangdao, this trip brought the barren view under the command of Qingyu Valley, and he was already determined to win.
"How's that for me to think about?" Barren and humane.
"I've already given you half a day to think about it, if the second elder comes, he won't be as polite to you as I am." Zhao Fang said coldly, this kind of speaking style is not at all as amiable as he usually is.
The barren Daoist looked extremely embarrassed, and said, "Elder, the matter of cooperation is not a trivial matter, can you let me think about it for a few days?" ”
Zhao Fang waved his hand and said, "This matter can be put aside for the time being, but there is one thing that cannot be delayed." ”
"What?" The barren Daoist relaxed a little, and the three elders of Qingyu Valley were finally willing to let go.
"I heard that there is the remains of an ancient demon dragon buried in the Imperial Horse Grassland, I guess you have already discovered its location, right?" Zhao Fangdao, the purpose of his trip, in addition to promoting the affiliation of the Desolate View of Qingyu Valley, and obtaining the remains of the Ancient Demon Dragon, is the most important thing.
The barren Daoist's expression had just eased a little, and he became nervous again, startled, and tried his best to suppress it, "Where did the Third Elder get the news?" ”
Zhao Fangdao: "The source is very reliable, what I want to know now is that the remains of the ancient demon dragon are now in the Desolate Temple?" If you are willing to hand it over, I, Qingyugu, am willing to pay a lot of money to buy it. ”
Desolate Dao said: "The news that the third elder heard, I'm afraid it's fake, right?" I've been in the Yuma Grassland for so many years, but I've never heard of any ancient dragons buried here. ”
"In that case, then you can wait for the second elder to come." Zhao Fang got up and walked towards the outside of the living room.
The barren real person has sweat on his forehead, the second elder of Qingyu Valley has long heard of it, he is a famous ruthless character, it is said that his cultivation has reached the Xiaotian realm, if he comes, I am afraid that he will be able to easily overturn the barren view, and also, with his style of acting, he will never give himself a chance to refute.
"Three Elders, slow down!" The Desolate Daoist stopped Zhao Fang, anyway, he had to tell the secret of the ancient demon dragon, it was better to tell Zhao Fang that he might still have a chance to bargain.
Zhao Fang stopped and said, "What?" What else do you have to say? ”
"Please also ask the three elders to sit down and talk." The barren Taoist said politely.
Zhao Fang sat back and said, "If you really want to cooperate with my Qingyu Valley, you have to show some sincerity. ”
The desolate Daoist nodded yes, but he was bitter in his heart, Qingyu Gu was even threatening and tempting, he wanted to disagree, and there was no way, "Don't hide it from the third elder, a few decades ago, my Desolate View did find some clues about the existence of the remains of the ancient demon dragon, but after so many years, we racked our brains, and we couldn't find a good way to determine the location of the ancient demon dragon's fall." ”
Zhao Fang's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the barren real person for a long time before he said, "Tell me, what is the clue?" ”
Looking at the appearance of the barren Taoist, it doesn't look like he is lying.
"Three miles away from the barren view, there is a peculiar yellow flower belt, as soon as it reaches the ninth day of the first month of the month, it will emit a strange red light, I have explored with the elders in the door, the soil there, it seems to contain the blood of the ancient demon dragon, those yellow flowers absorb the dragon's blood, it will become like that, according to our speculation, the ninth day of the first month, it is likely to be the day of the fall of the ancient demon dragon." The Barren Daoist said.
The Ancient Demon Dragon, although it has a violent temperament, is a rare ancient Demon Beast, that is, it has died, the magic power on its body is still an adult, and its whole body is a rare treasure.
Zhao Fang nodded, thought for a while, and said, "Listening to what you said, there is indeed something strange, can you take me to see that flower belt?" ”
The Desolate Daoist sighed heavily in his heart, this Ancient Demon Dragon, he Desolate View must not be able to swallow it alone, "Third Elder, if I help Qingyu Valley find the Ancient Demon Dragon, can I ......?"
"Don't worry, my Qingyu Valley is not as domineering as the world says, if you really help Qingyu Valley find the Ancient Demon Dragon, the benefits will naturally be indispensable to you." The Third Elder said.
With Zhao Fang's promise, the Desolate Daoist finally reassured, greeted a disciple, and gave a few orders, and after a while, an elder appeared in the living room, looking at him, it was the one that Lingfeng and Yuwen Jue had seen before.
"You take the three elders to the flower belt to have a look." The Barren Daoist said.
That elder's expression changed drastically, the ancient demon dragon has always been the biggest secret of the Desolation Concept, and today the Desolate Dao people actually told it to the people of Qingyu Valley? And let him take the people of Qingyu Valley to the flower belt?
"The real person in charge, this ......" the elder looked embarrassed and said.
"Go, the position of the Great Elder will be yours in the future." Barren and humane.
The elder's eyes flickered, and he said, "Third Elder, please come with me." ”
Zhao Fang and the elder of the Desolate View went down the mountain, naturally they didn't need to hide their breath, and completely increased their speed to the extreme, and for them, the three-mile road was only a few minutes away.
Zhao Fang looked at the Huang Zi Flower Belt that was emitting red light in front of him and was still entwined and fighting with each other, his eyes suddenly became bright, and he clenched his fists tightly with excitement, with his current cultivation, he could easily see what was hidden in the flower belt without the help of any external force.
He saw a faint red band of light, like a snake, winding into the distance.
Speaking of which, if it weren't for Ling Feng's previous actions, which inadvertently triggered the magical effect of the Ancient Demon Dragon's blood, Zhao Fang really couldn't see that ribbon of light.
I don't know how Ling Feng will feel after knowing this.
"You stay here first, and I'll go back." Zhao Fang commanded.
Seeing Zhao Fang's expression, the elder secretly said that he must have discovered something, and originally wanted to go with him to find out, but was pushed back by Zhao Fang's words, so he had to nod and stay where he was.
The wind sounded, and Zhao Fang turned into a black line, the speed was extremely fast, and in a few blinks of an eye, it had disappeared into the night.
He naturally didn't need to be as careful as Lingfeng in this search, and it only took half a pillar to get the ground, and he had already arrived at the humpback grass beach and saw the incomparably clear lake, as well as the horses and tents by the lake.
Glancing at the tent, Zhao Fang was surprised in his heart, and detected that the person living in the tent seemed to be just a mortal without any cultivation, what was he doing here? Did they just see the grass growing here and come to graze?
"Whether you're here to graze or not, you're going to die today." Zhao Fang's hand, the palm of his hand lit up with a bright white light, and when he waved, a powerful spiritual power was mixed with a strong wind and swept towards the horses.
