Chapter 173: Finding a Way Out

Seeing that his robe brother was sinking deeper and deeper into the mud, these men behind him did not dare to go forward to help. Because in this dangerous swamp, one wrong step will fall into danger, and it will be extremely difficult to save him from danger, and it is likely that even the person who saved him will fall into it.

Looking at this man, who was still alive just now, was swallowed up by the silt in the swamp like this, Tuoba Du and the others standing on the shore had tears in their eyes and were extremely heavy.

Unlike those watching from the grass, these warriors who explored their way in the mud had long put life and death on the line.

The Pao Ze brothers, who were so close to them, stayed in the muddy water of the swamp forever, as if they didn't feel it, adjusted their direction slightly, and continued to walk forward.

The team continued on their way, and the bottom of the swamp revealed their hideousness. After a while, another man was swallowed up by the mud in the swamp. As if there was a contagion, more and more men were stuck in the mud and could never come out again.

The hearts of those standing on the grass were tense, and everyone disappeared into the swamp, and their hearts were like knives. They couldn't help but want to shout loudly, telling these warriors who were in danger to come back quickly.

But everyone chose to be quiet very tacitly, holding back the grief in their hearts, watching their relatives disappear one by one, and their hearts were filled with hatred for this hateful swamp.

After another period of time, the man in the swamp walked farther and farther, and his image became more and more blurred, and finally gradually disappeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Tuoba Du took tens of thousands of subordinates and stood on the grass for a long time. Until they could no longer see a single figure, they had to turn back to the camp and look forward to the warriors to bring them good news.

Everything that happened to the people in the Misty Cloud Swamp was completely unknown to Yang Yun and the others who were on the periphery. Ever since the day Liu Yue entered the swamp, Yang Yun and the others had been anxiously waiting for news from him.

However, more than ten days have passed, and Yang Yun sent people to guard in the direction near the swamp every day, watching the birds flying in the sky, but no news came out of it.

As time passed, Yang Yun began to regret it, feeling that he should not send a girl like Liu Yue to that dangerous place.

Tuoba in the swamp was also very anxious in his heart, and went out to find a way out. It's been almost two days since I went out, and still haven't heard anything.

At this moment, Tuoba is not only worried about the lives of the tens of thousands of people who follow him, but also worries about the men who go out to explore the way.

Tuoba Du is not afraid of death, these people are the last force to avenge their dead relatives, if they all die, even if they die, they will not have the shame to meet the ancestors of the Gen tribe.

If these 1,000 pathfinders were to die in the swamp like this, they would be very sorry if they had a spirit in heaven, because they had given their lives and still did not help their loved ones get out of danger.

"Fourth Prince, they're back! They're back! As he was leaving, a young man from the Gengen tribe ran in excitedly, and Tuoba Du looked up to see that it was one of his personal guards.

"Fourth Prince, go and take a look, the warriors who explored the path are back, we have hope!" The guard had a look of delight on his face.

Hearing the guard's report, Tuoba Duteng stood up with a loud voice, didn't even care about his coat, and hurried out.

Tuoba soon came to the meadow where he had bid farewell to the warriors, and by this time, many people had gathered there, and everyone had a happy look on their faces.

Following everyone's gaze, Tuoba Du looked into the distance. In the distance, there were dozens of figures covered in mud, supporting each other, staggering step by step in the direction of the green meadow along the position marked with reed poles.

Tuobadu's gaze crossed the heads of the group of people and looked behind them, and his heart immediately became heavy at this sight.

A whole thousand pathfinders went out, and only these twenty or so people came back. This means that most of the warriors will die forever in this abominable swamp.

"This account should be recorded on the head of Kuban, and it should also be recorded on the head of the third Tuoba Shen, who is greedy for life and afraid of death, and recognizes the thief as his father." Tuoba Du showed a hideous look on his face, and said fiercely.

"Meet His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince! We waited to live up to our mission, and finally found a way out of the misty clouds. More than twenty-two pathfinders covered in mud, so tired that they couldn't even walk, knelt in front of Tuoba Du and said loudly.

"Thank you, you are our heroes." Tuoba Du said excitedly, regardless of the mud they were all over, he helped the man who was leading the way up.

Some of Tuobadu's subordinates also hurriedly came out and helped these warriors who were looking for their way of life one by one. Lead them to wash the mud off their bodies and get a good night's sleep.

Finally found a way out, and the news slowly spread among the tens of thousands of Liuyi people who followed Tuobada, and everyone was ecstatic.

In order to avoid spies passing on this good news to the Kuban. Tuoba sent people to impose a tight seal in the direction of the Kuban, prohibiting everyone from going out.

At the same time, Tuoba Du ordered everyone to hurry up and prepare, and early tomorrow morning, everyone will follow the "road of life" that these warriors have found for them and get out of the cloud swamp.

Outside the swamp, Yang Yun asked people to stay in the direction close to the swamp every day, waiting for the news from inside.

"Your Highness! You lose again, every time you are in a big event, you can be quiet, you can be safe, you can be safe, you can think about it, and you can get it after thinking about it. That's what you told us! In the tent, Ju Yuanguang was playing chess with Yang Yun.

"Your Highness, there is news." At this time, Qi Wei hurried in from outside the tent, still holding a white pigeon in his hand.

Yang Yun, who had already lost several hands in a row, took the opportunity to put down the chess pieces in his hand, took the white pigeon from Qi Wei's hand, and took a roll of things from the pigeon's leg.

Yang Yun opened the scroll and pulled out a small piece of yellow silk with some patterns on it.

"Good! That's great! Yang Yun, after seeing the pattern on this silk roll, immediately showed a smile on his face.

Yang Yun, who was familiar with this code, quickly transformed these patterns into five big characters: "Tomorrow will rise in the southeast." ”

Seeing this news, he immediately called several core figures under his command to discuss how to deal with the tens of thousands of Liuyi people led by Tuoba Du.

To the southeast of the outer perimeter of the Misty Swamp, a green area is several miles deep into the swamp, and on this green space, more than 100 Liuyi soldiers loyal to the Kuban are currently stationed.

This location is rarely populated on weekdays, and now that there are so many soldiers stationed, the nearby Liuyi people are even more reluctant to come to this place, so the soldiers guarding here are a little bored.

At this time, Yang Yun, Ju Yuanguang and others were crawling in the grass and looking in the direction of those soldiers' station.

"There aren't many soldiers here, and it's not hard to get rid of them. But the huge pile of firewood and grass next to it was a huge problem for us. "Huge

As he spoke, Yuanguang handed a cylinder in his hand to Yao Xia beside him.

This cylinder is unique to Yang Yun's forces, and this thing that Yang Yun calls a telescope really makes these people under him feel extremely magical.

This small cylinder, equipped with two pieces of glass, can actually see things from a long distance clearly.

"Yes! The pile of firewood and grass was obviously ready to deliver the news, and if they set fire to the pile of firewood and straw, even if we wiped them all out, we alone would not be able to stop the large army that came to reinforce them anyway. Yao Xia, who was on the side, looked into the distance with a telescope, frowned and said.

"But with us alone, even if it's a sneak attack, it's too difficult to destroy them before they can set fire to the firewood and haystack." This time it was Qi Wei who spoke.

There are no people in this place, and these soldiers have been stationed here for months, and it is difficult to pass the time.

"I don't know what to think above, what kind of guards are there in this place, is it possible that they can still get out of the swamp and get the brothers here to feed the mosquitoes for nothing." One soldier said indignantly.

"No, in this place where birds don't lay eggs, you can't see a single figure, and even birds rarely pass by, so you can't make a tooth sacrifice at all." A soldier next to him said.

"Brothers, what are you talking about! This place also has benefits, no one cares about us, we can play however we want. Another soldier said.

"Chen Mazi, you are full of men who don't know that hungry men are hungry, and you drag us to play dice every day, and the brothers' silver is in your pocket." The first soldier to speak looked at the man who had just spoken with disdain.

"Hehe, this is willing to gamble and lose, saying that it may not be that one day you are lucky, you will all win back." The man, known as Chen Mazi, said with a smile.

The soldiers sat on the grass, and there was no one saying a word, and the calm of the place had made them let their guard down.

Everyone was giggling, and as they said one by one, a small soldier suddenly stood up and looked into the distance.

The soldier's strange movements attracted the attention of the others, and they all followed the soldier's line of sight to look ahead.

At this glance, everyone's faces showed smiles. Because in the meadow in the distance, there are a few yellow sheep standing leisurely gnawing on the grass on the ground.

"Haha, I've been here for so long, and finally some game has arrived, we can't let them go this time, let's have a good tooth sacrifice." The soldier who stood up first said excitedly.

The soldier's words obviously spoke to the hearts of all his companions, and they stood up one after another, picked up the bows and arrows placed on the side, and tiptoed in the direction in which the yellow sheep appeared.

There were more than a dozen soldiers surrounding Xiang Huangyang, although their movements were very light. But they still underestimated the vigilance of the yellow sheep, so they were discovered.

The alarmed yellow sheep immediately spread its hooves and ran desperately into the distance.

How could it be possible to let the prey that was already in their hands run away, these dozen soldiers grew up in the grassland, their movements were very agile, and they had rich hunting experience, they scattered in all directions while chasing, and soon the yellow sheep was in their encirclement.

Seeing that it was impossible for the yellow sheep to escape, the soldiers rejoiced, and they shouted loudly as they narrowed the encirclement, and at the same time raised their bows and arrows, ready to deal a fatal blow to these prey.
