It was only at this time that Huo Xiu let out a long breath, and the tense heartstrings were completely relaxed. Suddenly, a sense of tiredness swept through his body, making him not even want to move.

Huo Xiu took the opportunity to simply lie down, turn on the super task system, and start to check his current state.

Huo Xiu stared at his state and couldn't help but talk to himself.

"My current strength improvement has reached a bottleneck, and if I want to make a breakthrough, the best choice is in terms of fighting spirit improvement. It's a pity that I'm now trapped in the War Hall's responsibilities and can't go out to find out the news. It seems that there is only one chance, and now the inside of this Jade Dragon Pass has been excavated. ”

Huo Xiu put away the character panel and prepared to stand up. Suddenly, he seemed to hear a faint sound outside the door.

Huo Xiu didn't think about it, and immediately activated the eye of the soul and sensed the surrounding situation.

The next moment, I saw him snort, and a few sneers appeared on his face.

"At this time, he still wants to be a gentleman on the beam, isn't he tired?"

Huo Xiu shook his head and muttered to himself.

He had already felt that lurking outside was Zhou Kui, who was in the same squad as him. No need to ask, this must have been instructed by Ji Duyi.

However, at this Jade Dragon Pass, they didn't dare to attack themselves easily, Huo Xiu simply ignored it and fell asleep directly.

In this way, it was bitter for Zhou Kui, and he waited in the cold wind for a night, but he didn't find any changes in Huo Xiu.

Several times, he couldn't help but want to rush out and slash Huo Xiu to death with one palm. But Cui Kui also knows that any slightly larger movement here will attract the attention of others. Besides, as a martial artist, it is impossible to sleep deeply, and any wind and grass will attract attention. At that time, he will be in a dilemma, even more embarrassing.

Therefore, it was not until dawn that Cui Kui dragged his tired body back with his tired body. At this time, Huo Xiu had just woken up.

Huo Xiu stretched his waist and felt that Cui Kui had disappeared, so he was slightly surprised.

"This guy really thought I was going to make a big move. Now it's okay, he should go back to catch up on sleep, and I just took the opportunity to go out and investigate. ”

However, as soon as Huo Xiu went out, he collided with Ji Duyi.

Ji Du's face sank, and he asked in a cold voice: "Huo Xiu, you are not cultivating in the courtyard to prepare for war, why are you rushing out!?"

Huo Xiu smiled and responded: "The first time I came to this Jade Dragon Pass, I naturally have to familiarize myself with the terrain, and I can quickly rush to the scene when I encounter an emergency." ”

Ji Duyi frowned, and a hint of displeasure suddenly appeared on his face. He knew that this was Wei Tang's accusation, and it didn't have much to do with Zhan Tang. Huo Xiu's words were just an excuse.

However, he was trying to take the opportunity to find out Huo Xiu's purpose.

It was Ji Duyi who snorted coldly, passed by Huo Xiu's side, and only shook off a word.

"Huo Xiu, you can do it yourself. When you get to the battlefield, no one can help you!"

Huo Xiu shrugged his shoulders and was very unimpressed. Seeing that Ji Duyi had left, he walked out of his residence according to the established plan.

However, not long after he walked out, Huo Xiu felt a strangeness behind him. Even though that guy's ability to conceal his whereabouts is not low, it still can't escape the perception of his soul eye.

In just a moment, Huo Xiu had already determined that it was Ji Duyi who was following him closely.

"This guy seems to have discussed with Zhou Kui, and he monitors me all day long. Well, I'll take you around in circles to see how patient you are?"

As soon as Huo Xiu thought of this, he immediately turned around and walked towards the main road.

When I first arrived at the Jade Dragon Pass yesterday, I was in a hurry all the way, and I didn't carefully observe the surrounding environment.

Today, Huo Xiu is finally free, and naturally has the energy to pay attention to every detail.

Compared to Hemu Town, it is much more deserted, and most of the shops on both sides of the road are locked. More often than not, there are neat rows of barracks and light and dark fortifications.

Overall, it doesn't look like a small city, but rather like a massive fortress.

"Maybe it's because it's the responsibility of connecting the two border towns, so it's built like this. Huo Xiu touched his nose and couldn't help but think secretly.

Just as he was strolling along this slightly deserted road, he suddenly noticed a teahouse at the intersection in front of him, which seemed to be full of people.

Huo Xiu changed his mind, walked in quickly, called a pot of tea, and tasted it slowly.

Of course, Huo Xiu's original intention was not to taste tea here, but to inquire about the news. After all, there are many people here, and there are all three religions and nine streams, so there will always be something to be asked.

Sure enough, after a while, Huo Xiu heard what he was interested in.

I saw a middle-aged man with a big nose, his face was red, exuding the smell of alcohol, and he said drunkly: "Do you know? Yesterday, thousands of corpses came to attack the city, and dozens of people ran away!"

In the crowd, someone immediately clapped their hands and laughed: "Tang Niu, you shouldn't be drunk." Since the warriors of the He family returned to their hometowns to mourn, our city has not opened the city gates, how could anyone go out to meet those corpses!"

As soon as he finished speaking, someone made a noise, seemingly supporting the man's statement.

Seeing this, Tang Niu couldn't help but feel a little angry.

My brother was on an errand under Zhang Baihu, who was guarding the city, and he saw it with his own eyes. ”

At this point, some people began to believe. Still, there was a dissent from the crowd.

"Even if this is the case, how can only a few dozen people withstand thousands of corpses!"

Tang Niu laughed and said, "You don't know this, my brother told me personally, those people are the martial artists of Hemu Town's Tantang." ”

It was only then that the crowd was finally completely convinced.

Seeing this, Tang Niu lowered his voice and pretended to be mysterious: "Do you ever know where those corpses came from?"
