Chapter Eighty-Seven: Animals
The battle next to the waterhole, Ye Youhuan watched it with relish.
Zhong Ling was a little impatient.
During the scuffle, Zhong Ling felt that it was not enjoyable to watch, so it was better to teach Liang Jun a lesson with his own hands.
When she saw that Liang Jun dared to shoot arrows at the shape-changing fruit tree, she was even more about to rush out to kill people, but fortunately, Ye Youhuan was about to stop her.
"Get out of your hands, I'm going to kill that commander." Zhong Ling said angrily.
The shape-shifting fruit tree means a lot to Zhong Ling, it is the magical fruit tree that gives Zhong Ling a second life, if there is no fruit tree, Zhong Ling may be a monkey for the rest of his life.
"Don't get excited." Ye Youhuan comforted: "Don't you see that mysterious power protects the fruit tree very well? ”
"Then I can't tolerate anyone offending the shapeshifting fruit tree." Zhong Ling was haunted.
"Don't worry, we'll take action when they both lose." Ye Youhuan reminded: "Don't forget that mysterious force is also hostile to us, not everyone is as friendly as your three sisters. ”
"......" Zhong Ling didn't say anything, she listened to Ye Youhuan's words and temporarily resisted the impulse in her heart.
But she didn't completely agree with Ye Youhuan's words.
She felt that Ye Youhuan's statement was too arbitrary, and she should communicate more with the mysterious power that guarded the shape-shifting fruit tree, instead of directly labeling the other party as an 'enemy' just because the other party attacked her.
Zhong Ling wanted to communicate with the mysterious power that protected the shape-changing fruit tree, but Ye Youhuan didn't think about that.
He wanted to keep the shapeshifting fruit tree for himself.
Ye Youhuan saw that this fruit tree had already borne fruit, and believed that it would not take a few years for the fruit to ripen, and eating one fruit could make an animal become a human and live to be a hundred years old, so what if you eat two fruits?
Ye Youhuan thought to herself: "It's good for animals to be animals honestly, why do you want to become a human, if you become a beauty like the three sisters, it's okay, if you become a man...... That's a really boring thing to do. ”
Ye Youhuan has a high opinion of the appearance of the three sisters.
It's always a pity in my heart that the three sisters don't seem to be suitable for me.
They're all too desireless.
Maybe it's because they've lived in isolation for too long, so the three women don't have any desires in their hearts, and they don't look like mortals.
Ye Youhuan felt that Princess Jingxin, who wanted to break through the shackles and dominate her life, and Princess Jinyu, who wanted to restore the country and become a queen, were more similar to herself and more suitable for herself.
The two of them have their own hearts and minds here, and there is already a fight by the waterhole over there.
After the shape-shifting fruit tree was protected by the ice, the Liang army divided several troops into the water and swam towards the middle of the pool.
Although the commander of the Liang army wanted to destroy the shape-shifting fruit tree, he was very cautious in his use of troops.
He didn't let all the soldiers rush into the water in one go, because he understood that the mysterious power of the deep pool, especially the mysterious power was likely to be in the water, and sent a few teams to the center of the pool, where he could test the reality of the mysterious power.
Sure enough, after the squads entered the water, fish with sharp teeth appeared in the water.
The fish looked strange, its body was water, and its bones were ice.
The fish's jaws are covered with sharp and icy teeth, like sharp daggers, and biting the enemy will immediately tear off a large piece of flesh.
These fish are not very large, but the number is amazing, and I don't know how many there are.
"It seems that his ability is only so great."
Piranhas appeared in the deep pool, and the team that went into the water was wiped out in an instant.
"Back off for now."
The commander of the Liang army believes that he already knows the weakness of the mysterious power, which is the shapeshifting fruit tree protected by the mysterious power.
Ketan Water is a realm controlled by mysterious forces, and in this realm it has an absolute advantage.
The retreat of the commander of the Liang army was a tactical retreat.
He didn't give up on his goal.
After all, if Ye Youhuan escaped this time, the glory and wealth that was about to arrive would be in vain.
Return?
Not to mention that the commander of the Liang army will not agree, even the adjutants around him will not agree.
Retreating into the forest, the commander and several adjutants gathered to discuss countermeasures.
"That strange tree is supposed to be the weakness of the mystery man." Said one of the adjutants.
"Fools can see it." The commander-in-chief complained about the uselessness of what the adjutant said.
"This battle was very confusing, we didn't see the target we were tracking for a long time, and we didn't even find the opponent anywhere." An adjutant said depressedly.
"The mysterious man's strength seems to be only near that waterhole, and you see that we retreat into the forest, and he doesn't pursue it." The commander analyzed.
"Do you want the army to search the neighborhood?" An adjutant asked.
"Don't disperse the army for the time being, so as not to encounter an unknown situation, let's send a few squads to check around, and we will continue to study how to fight the mysterious man who controls water and ice."
The officers began to deliberate on countermeasures.
They didn't know that Ye Youhuan and Zhong Ling, who were looking for them so hard, were right on their heads.
Several generals discussed tactics, and it happened to be under the tree where Ye Youhuan and Zhong Ling were hiding.
Their conversation reached Ye Youhuan's ears word for word.
The officers talked and talked, and couldn't think of anything to do about it.
Ye Youhuan was anxious for them, thinking in his heart: "Hurry up and go back to fight, why are you so cowardly." ”
He hoped that the mysterious force in the waterhole would kill some of the Liang Army.
The more troops the Liang army consumes here, the less pressure the defenders will have when the Yepi Pass is guarded.
But Liang Jun just couldn't think of a countermeasure.
Ye Youhuan also thought in his heart about how to deal with the mysterious power in Tanshui if he was the commander of the Liang Army.
What made Ye Youhuan frustrated was that he couldn't think of any countermeasures after thinking about it: "Could it be that this misunderstanding is about to come to an end, it seems that the Liang Army has not killed many people." ”
Even if Ye Youhuan counted the casualties of the Liang army, it was estimated that the Liang army would lose about three or four hundred people.
Soon, the person in charge of counting the casualties during the break went to the commander to report the casualty figures.
The figures he reported were similar to what Ye Youhuan had guessed.
Three hundred and eleven people died.
Seventy-seven people were seriously injured.
Minor injuries are not counted.
A total of 488 people lost their combat effectiveness, almost the strength of a battalion.
Ye Youhuan on the tree was depressed: "How did you lose so many people?" ”
The subordinate commander was in a heavy mood and sighed: "I didn't expect to lose so many people. ”
Listening to what he meant, it seems that he has lost his previous fighting spirit.
Several generals fell silent until the soldiers who had gone to search nearby returned.
The fighters brought very strange news.
They weren't aware of anyone or animals around the Seven Star Pool.
But one thing that is very strange is that there are some kind of animal footprints all over the place.
Judging by the footprints, the animal has a large population.
"General." An old hunter-turned-soldier said, "Those footprints are those of all animals, and I suspect they are a pack of foxes." ”
