Chapter 316 The First Line Gorge
"Why a detour? If I am an envoy of a large country, will I still be afraid of being ambushed by the people of this small country? "Li Xie is confident that as long as he is not a grandmaster, then it is easy to discuss.
Even if it's a grandmaster, not more than two is not a big problem. Although the Tiger Kingdom claims to have five great grandmasters, isn't one of them already sitting in his carriage?
The remaining four, it is estimated that it is impossible for the people of the Tiger Country to mobilize all of them. In that case, what else is he Li Xie afraid of?
But I'm not afraid of them, but ......
"Let the Demon Grandmaster's car go ahead, let the driver pay attention, see that something is wrong, run quickly, don't take your life."
"Yes!" Although Chen Lin knew that Li Xie couldn't see it, he still saluted the carriage before walking away.
Turning around and walking, without more than a dozen steps, he came to the carriage where the Qutu Demon Man was, Chen Lin said to the person who drove the Qutu Demon Man:
"Wait a minute, you go ahead. If you see something wrong, run quickly, don't take your life on the line. ”
This did not shy away from the Qutu Demon in the slightest, and it was said generously. The reason why this is so is because Chen Lin feels that Li Xie doesn't seem to have the intention of hiding it from Qu Tu Demon.
Just now, the two carriages were no more than up and down apart, Li Xie did not shy away from Chen Lin when he told him about this matter, but said it so generously, with the cultivation of Qutu Demon Man, such a distance, saying it like this, in fact, is almost the same as saying it in his ear.
In this case, when he came here at this time, when he said this to this little brother who was driving the car, of course, he didn't need to shy away from it, and he would be a villain in vain.
However, Chen Lin felt that although there was nothing wrong with his approach, he would have to be scolded. Sure enough, Chen Lin was thinking like this in his heart, and the voice of the Qutu Demon came from the car:
"If you are not a son of man, how can you be so shameless as a man?" There are some things that are said in person and talked about behind the scenes.
When Li Xie instructed Chen Lin, he didn't say it in front of Qu Tu Demon, and the two of them had to be at least a dozen steps away. Although the Qutu Demon Man heard it clearly, he was still saying it behind his back. Qutu Demon Man couldn't help but wronged himself, as if he didn't hear it.
But Chen Lin gave such a righteous and bright order in front of the carriage at this time, if the Qu Tu Demon didn't hear it anymore, he would be deaf. Since he can't be ignored, if he doesn't scold angrily, wouldn't it mean that he, a dignified grandmaster, is cowardly?
Who is the Qutu Demon?
He is a dignified clan, how can he be cowardly, how can he be deaf?
"What the Demon Grandmaster said is that Chen Lin, you don't take the Grandmaster too seriously. I will punish you for half a year, and I will carry it out when you go back with thirty rods. What do you think of punishing the Demon Grandmaster like this? ”
Qu Tu Demon is a grandmaster in the end, and Li Xie still has to give him some face, so after he finished speaking, Li Xie immediately said that he would punish him.
Although this punishment is equivalent to nothing, but in the end, it gave him some face and gave him a step.
Qu Tu Demon himself also knew that Li Xie was the main player here, and Chen Lin was just under his instructions to do things. can still hope that Li Xie will really punish Chen Lin severely, and now this punishment is not light or heavy, it can be regarded as giving himself a face.
Qutu Demon is not an uninteresting person, so how can he disagree, and he will not be silent at the moment. It can be regarded as acquiescing to Li Xie's letting him go ahead and using him as a gunman.
The people set out again and walked towards the gorge. There is a saying that it is called Wangshan running a dead horse. That's not wrong at all.
Chen Lin and Li Xie said that it was just over half of the morning when they said that they were the first-line heroes in front, but everyone ran until the halfway point of the afternoon, and then they entered the entrance of the first-line gorge.
"Tell them to rest here for the night." Li Xie wants to maintain the demeanor of an envoy of a great country, but he is not a brainless idiot!
The terrain of the first line of the gorge is quite complicated, and it is really dangerous to spend the night in it. Now that the afternoon time has passed halfway, if you want to go through this front-line hero, I'm afraid you have to travel overnight, why bother so hard?
On the other hand, as early as when Li Xie was out of the scope of the Jin Kingdom, Li Xiaolin had already heard his itinerary, so he took the lead in rushing to this first-line gorge.
But Li Xiaolin also knew that if his group were to fight Li Xie's group head-on, they would have absolutely no chance of winning. On his side, not including those who he himself can go up and fight with others, there are only eight people.
Although among these eight people, there are very strange people like the three men in black, but the so-called two fists are invincible to four hands. Li Xie's side also has a team of 200 people, how can he carry it with just eight people.
So in Li Xiaolin's plan, he never planned to have a hard fight with Li Xie. Li Xie's everyone could guess that his trip might not be so easy to reach the Tiger Country and pass the capital.
Li Xiaolin grew up in the royal family since he was a child and received a good education, how could he not know that the strong clan of the Tiger Country would not easily let Li Xie enter the country.
Therefore, Li Xiaolin's plan is to let Li Xie and the strong clan of the Tiger Kingdom fight first, it is best to let them lose both, and then he will come out to reap the benefits of the fisherman.
And this plan was not just a plan, and in the current situation, it seemed that everything was more or less the same as he expected.
The people sent by the strong clan of the Tiger Country have already come here to wait, Li Xiaolin came here because the number of people is small, they are all masters, and they are weak in mental arithmetic, they have long known that they are here, and they dare not get too close, so they can hide under their noses.
The manpower of the Tiger Country Powerful Clan's ambush is in the middle of the first-line canyon. shielded the people outside in that position, so that Li Xie could not easily escape and retreat after being ambushed, which can be said to be a battleground for soldiers.
And Li Xiaolin was small in number, so he found a random jungle at the entrance and plunged into it.
But things are often so coincidental, Li Xie didn't want to rush to the night road, and he didn't want to spend the night in the first-line gorge. So I also camped down at the entrance.
And the jungle that Li Xiaolin was hiding in was not the only jungle at the entrance of the canyon. But the people Li Xie brought with him were all masters, and they were all very cautious people.
So after being stationed, it didn't matter how many of those jungles there were, all of them were checked one by one just in case.
Li Xiaolin and his party are eight people, not a few ants. These jungles are not very big, and under Chen Lin's investigation one by one, the eight of them have nothing to hide and are exposed.
However, after detecting their whereabouts, Chen Lin's people did not rashly attack them. Instead, he hid in the vicinity and sent someone back to report to Chen Lin.
For the sake of prudence, Chen Lin went to go in person, this is a terrible look, these people don't know Li Xiaolin, can he Chen Lin not know him?
As soon as he saw Li Xiaolin, Chen Lin was startled at first, and then immediately guessed Li Xiaolin's intention. But no matter how Li Xiaolin is, he is still a prince, even if he wants to die, he must not die at the hands of their officials and subordinates.
Although Li Xie is the only one who has the hope of inheriting the unification, after all, Li Zhanji is still on the throne, and Li Xiaolin is his Li Zhanji's son after all, who knows that after he kills Li Xiaolin, will Li Zhanji be investigated afterwards?
So I don't want to be Chen Lin who carries the black pot, and I can't let everyone attack Li Xiaolin. Even for the sake of safety, he withdrew all the people who were watching there a mile back.
Then Chen Lin hurried back to the camp, regardless of the fact that it was already night, everyone had already rested, and came directly to the door of Li Xie's tent, and shouted:
"Lord Wang, there is a situation."
Li Xie was a night owl in his previous life, and after coming to this world, he often read books at night. It can be said that he will not sleep until 11:00. Although it is now dark, it is the time for everyone to rest, but most of the rest time of the ancient people was at seven or eight o'clock.
Now it's only a little over 9:00, Li Xie hasn't slept at all, and is still looking at the map of this line of gorges, thinking about what method to use, so that he can not lose his demeanor as a great country, but also pass easily.
Now when I heard that Chen Lin came to report that there was a situation so late, I was suddenly shocked. I thought that someone had quietly touched me and was going to make a move on me, so almost as soon as Chen Lin's words fell, Li Xie opened his mouth and called Chen Lin in.
"Did you find the ambush inside? How far is it from us? Li Xie still thinks that the ambush people have to wait at least for him to enter the first-line gorge, although this position is beneficial to the ambush people, it is definitely not very good, far less than the inside of the first-line gorge.
"No, no people from other countries have been found. It was the Fourth Prince, and my people saw him in the jungle. ”
"Fourth brother? Unexpectedly, my brother really has a deep affection for me, and this gift has been sent to the gate of the country. How many people are there? After Li Xie sighed, his eyes stared at the map in front of him, thoughtful.
"Including the four princes, there are only nine people in total. I'm not sure if there are any other personnel ambushed somewhere else, though. "The number of people is surprisingly small, so small that Chen Lin feels strange.
"Let people try it and see what the skills of my fourth brother are brought." Li Xie felt that since Li Xiaolin would only bring such a few people to ambush him, then there must be absolute masters among these people.
However, Li Xie felt that with his fourth brother's ability, he expected that he would not be able to invite a grandmaster, so he could only be a half-step grandmaster, or a master-level figure who was only one step away from the grandmaster.
However, people at this stage are also not to be underestimated, and the qi belongs to each person's different attributes, and this group of people is strong, strong, excessive, weak, and weak. The most typical example is the wooden man Yin Fuxin beside him. Obviously, there is only a cultivation of a beginner master, but a half-step grandmaster is only a matter of one or two arrows in front of him.
Li Xie can beat Xie Yuhang, a relatively low cultivation master, to death without being injured. was shot through the shoulder by Yin Fuxin, and almost bled to death.
After Chen Lin was ordered to retreat, Li Xie did not rest, but looked at the map and was distracted. The terrain of the present jurisdiction is indeed dangerous, and the outermost two alpine mountains form a valley.
In the middle of the canyon, because there used to be a large army fighting all year round, it was filled with huge stones, and according to the accumulation of stone piles all year round, small stone mountains were formed, standing in it. It can be said that even if 10,000 people enter it, they will be divided. It is so easy to be broken one by one by those who have a calculating mind.
Li Xie and his party only had 200 people, but they didn't need to go separately one by one after entering it like a large army. Although the number of 200 people is large, it can easily pass through it if it is condensed into a single force, and there is no need to stretch the line too long.
But even so, under the dangerous terrain, if the stones were carried up the mountain, and when they entered and the others entered, the boulders would roll down from the top of the mountain, and the team would suffer heavy losses.
Li Xie stared at the map like this, thinking about an hour later. Chen Lin walked back, but his face was gloomy and his expression was slightly sad.
"What's the matter, are they all masters?" Li Xie knew from Chen Lin's expression that this time he was probably losing manpower.
But it shouldn't! Zangfeng's fighters are all specially trained, and in their eyes, sneak attacks and assassinations, and secret weapons quenching poison are normal things.
If you add someone on the side, two or three people will deal with a grandmaster. Even if you can't hurt him, you can delay a period of time to get support, and retreat calmly.
"I didn't try it, the people brought by the four princes are too weird. My people fought them before they all died. The night was very deep, and I couldn't see what means they used, but I didn't see what secret weapons they used, it should be poison. "Chen Lin sent ten people, and only five came back, and those five were too late to make a move.
The remaining five men rushed forward to test them, and when they met the three men in black, they were beaten by five, and in a few moves, all of them fell to the ground.
Seeing this scene, the remaining five people didn't dare to make rash moves, and secretly sneaked back. For the sake of prudence, Chen Lin did not come forward, and hid far behind, just for fear that Li Xiaolin would recognize him.
But he didn't want his cautious move to kill his five brothers. If he could do it again, he would definitely be on the sidelines. If this class can't save them all, it can lose one or two people.
Hearing that there were few people lost on his side, Li Xie was also a little silent:
"Tomorrow after dawn their bodies will be retrieved and buried. Since he killed first, we don't have to be polite. ”
"Tomorrow morning you will personally take people and lead them to the canyon for me. When the time comes, make sure that I am in the same position as my fourth brother and those who are coming. ”
Chen Lin nodded and wanted to go down, but at this time he heard someone report from the next person:
"The Commander has a situation!"
"What's the matter?" Chen Lin looked at Li Xie, seeing that Li Xie did not mean to interject, knowing that Li Xie did not want to interfere in the management of Zang Feng's affairs.
"The brother who was watching there said that our five dead brothers had all turned to blood not long after you left."
Chen Lin's eyes widened, obviously frightened. It's not that Li Xiaolin and the others disposed of the bodies of these five people, but that they turned into blood, that is, the poison that killed them directly turned them into blood, not that they put something in the follow-up, causing their bodies to be turned into blood.
"It's poisonous." Chen Lin understood it, and of course Li Xie heard it very well. So I shuddered and sighed.
But I didn't feel that scared, no matter how powerful the poison was, it would never spread through the air, and it would always take time to exert it.
With Yin Fuxin here, Li Xie didn't need to let people get close at all, and he could directly let Yin Fuxin shoot him remotely.
As long as they die, no matter how powerful the poison is, there is no chance to use it, which is equivalent to nothing.
"Brother Chen, remember not to fight them tomorrow, just hang him from afar, and bring Yin Fuxin with you."
Chen Lin is a very capable assistant, and it would be a pity if he died.
"Yes!" ……
Early the next morning, after Li Xie and his entourage packed up, they entered the first-line gorge and walked quietly until noon, when everyone met the ambush.
It is not as military as expected, and even the terrain has not changed, and the surroundings are still the same. It's just that there was a rain of arrows when there was a sneak attack, but fortunately, everyone had already expected a sneak attack, so after discovering that there was a rain of arrows.
Everyone scattered and hid behind the rocks. It was those who moved a little slower, who were injured, but despite this, they were pulled into the obstacle by the people who supported them behind.
As a result, this round of arrow rain has not achieved much, and the biggest effect is only to intimidate. Moreover, because the carriage he was riding in was modified, with iron sheets inside and out, in order to prevent him from escaping.
So this round of arrow rain didn't even force the Qutu Demon to show his head.
After a rain of arrows, nearly 100 people rushed down the hillside on fast horses.
Li Xie's team was scattered at once, and Li Xie pulled the cicada clothes and hid behind a boulder without rushing to the road.
After the cavalry charged, Chen Lin also rushed over:
"How is it, is my dear fourth brother here?"
"It's only a hundred meters away from here."
"That's good, I'll meet him, you protect the little cicada!"
As he spoke, Li Xie sprang out of the boulder and rushed towards this group of cavalry. Along the way, he kicked a boulder with his foot from time to time, but kicking the cavalry off the horse one by one.
After coming to the front, it was even more violent, Li Xie pressed the horse's head with his bare hands, and he could directly use his own strength to force the horse to stop. How can a person on horseback still sit on such a sudden gallop? The huge inertia caused them to fly off the horse's back and hit their head on the ground.
For a while, people turned on their backs, and directly let Li Xie kill a way.
