Chapter 564: Natural Enemies
Zhu Yong and Li Ba and their hundreds of subordinates have been trapped in the mountains and old forests on the border of Yue for almost a month, and they have actually lost their way in the mountains. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Li Ba looked at the sun above his head, sat on the ground, and complained in a bad tone: "Have you seen clearly, what are you saying to follow the direction of the sun, it's been a few days, and we haven't come back again." ā
Zhu Yong's face was full of doubts, holding a sailing compass in his hand, constantly observing the sun, and suddenly patted his head and said: "Oops, I actually forgot that the sun does not stand still all day, and the direction of this morning and afternoon is also different!" ā
Li Ba almost spurted out a mouthful of blood, and Zhu Yong smiled: "But it doesn't matter, anyway, the prince didn't specify what we were doing when we came here." It's boring to be in the camp every day, and it's like training in the deep mountains and old forests. ā
Zhu Yong's words obviously did not echo the people present, and everyone looked at him with disdain. In the past month, everyone has long since run out of dry food and salt, and now they only eat wild meat from the mountains every day.
There is no salt as an adjunct, and they are already full of complaints, and the whole army is still smiling and grinning all day long.
Li Ba doesn't want to live this kind of life now, there are not only many mosquitoes in the jungle, but also a lot of poisons, and several people have been bitten to death by poisons. Now he just wants to lie on a comfortable boat, watch his sea, and enjoy the seafood that he never gets tired of!
"I don't care, just send a signal out now, and let them use the spaceship to take us!" Li Ba regretted at the moment that he had listened to Zhu Yong's instigation and came with him to explore in this old forest.
This guy didn't know what he heard there, saying that there was a lot of jade in the mountains, so he made a big excuse to come here and make a fortune.
But after they have been wandering here for more than a month, let alone jade, they haven't even seen a ghost. Zhu Yong didn't seem to want to give up just yet, but he no longer had any excuse to keep everyone, so he acquiesced to Li Ba's proposal.
Everyone started walking to the top of a hill to make sure that the signal was visible, so that they could walk higher than the sky, which would also facilitate the landing of the hot air balloon.
Two days after the signal was issued, they waited for the arrival of hot air balloons, and the arrival of nearly 100 hot air balloons was enough to bring everyone aboard.
Floating in the air at a height of several hundred meters, with the endless forest at his feet, Zhu Yong pointed to the green ocean under his feet and said, "His grandmother's, am I being deceived by that native." There are only trees here, and there is no jade there! ā
Li Ba directly glanced at him and said: "Will it be too late for you to react now, in fact, it's not easy to get jade, it's not good to grab it directly from the hands of those natives, why bother doing this effort!" ā
Zhu Yong felt that he was reasonable, and he was already thinking in his heart how to take revenge on the natives who provided him with information. At this time, someone suddenly exclaimed: "Look, everyone, there is black smoke rising from the top of that mountain." ā
Everyone followed the words, and sure enough, a pillar of smoke rose up into the sky in front of them, and Zhu Yong immediately ordered to go and take a look. As the hot air balloon flew closer, you could see that someone was burning something.
Zhu Yong immediately took out his binoculars to look, and saw a huge fire burning, and next to it seemed to be a huge altar, there were many people gathered there, and some chanting could be faintly heard along the wind.
Li Ba looked at it for a while and said, "These people's clothes look very familiar, just like those costumes of the Bright Sect before. ā
After Li Ba's reminder, Zhu Yong really thought about it, and with a happy face, he smiled and said: "Could it be that these are the remnants of the Bright Sect, it seems that there are still many people!" Or we'll kill them now, and we've brought a lot of incendiary and powder bombs. ā
As soon as the hot air balloon approached, the Sect of Light who was holding the ceremony also saw something floating in the air, and several old men on the altar showed a solemn look on their faces.
In the center was a young girl, who was also staring at the hot air balloon in the air at this moment, and suddenly opened her lips and said to a few old men beside her: "This is what you call an artifact, it's just that it can fly in the sky!" ā
The girl was dressed in fiery red clothes, her jet-black hair was casually draped behind her head, and a trace of childishness could be seen on her delicate face, and it was obvious that the age of this girl would not exceed eighteen years old.
From the position she sat and the tone in which she spoke, it could be seen that her status should not be small. At this time, an elder clenched his fists and said: "Holy Maiden, don't underestimate that hot air balloon, Tang Ming is invincible on the sea by relying on this thing." ā
Another elder also immediately said, "Don't look at these things that don't fly fast, but they can fly very high, and ordinary bows and arrows can't hurt them. ā
The holy woman obviously didn't listen to the advice of the two elders, and said to the maid behind her with a disdainful expression: "Immediately give the order to let the Flying Eagle Team rise into the air to meet these slow artifacts." ā
The two maidservants behind him responded, turned to the center of the altar, and fired a colored signal rocket.
A moment later, behind the altar, on the cliff that towered into the sky, some black dots began to glide rapidly. There are dozens of them, and in the eyes of the people below, these black dots are no different from some small birds.
In fact, there were dozens of people, hovering in the air with gliding equipment, and when they had determined the direction of the hot air balloon, they rushed forward as fast as a falcon.
Zhu Yong and Li Ba naturally quickly saw these unkind things, and Li Ba's face was solemn: "What is this?" They can fly in the sky! ā
Zhu Yong screamed and immediately ordered to fight, he was already in the telescope, and saw these guys who could glide quickly in the air, and everyone had a fire system in their hands.
It's a pity that Zhu Yong's warning was still too late, and the small black dot that was still a few hundred meters away just now had already rushed to the bottom of the hot air balloon in a few breaths.
The sound of the fire system sounded even more when Zhu Yong's warning sounded, and the hot air balloon was used to ride people's large baskets, and its appearance was just a layer of wooden planks. At close range, the fire easily pierced the plank, and a scream sounded on the hot air balloon.
There are even hot air balloons that are directly hit by the balls above, and the leaky balloons begin to gradually drop in height, and then they are turned back by the gliders, directly poking the balloon again.
Once the balloon was destroyed, it fell directly to the ground, and Zhu Yong's eyes happened to see the three attacked hot air balloons falling for a long time.
And only at this moment, the sporadic shots of flintlock pistols could be heard from the hot air balloons, but it was a pity that the speed of the gliders was too fast for the flintlock pistols to hit them at all. (To be continued.) )
