The grandmaster couldn't explain it, but Su Cheng could: "The kid thinks that the reason why the poison of the water attribute is inseparable from water is that this poison is mostly active. In fact, they are very small insects, which is why this type of poison will be ineffective when dried or boiled. I wonder if we can make these worms lose their ability to reproduce and live, but they are no longer able to produce new poisonous worms, so that this poison is still effective, but it is not powerful, it can only make people sick and not fatal, let alone infectious! ”

This is actually the real art of vaccines. Zhang Songjing's eyes widened in disbelief, but an orange light appeared on Zhang Xing's head, shooting straight at Xiao Han - he actually broke through the realm of the little grandmaster and became the great grandmaster of poison because of Twilight's orange words!

Zhang Xingdao: "This idea is feasible. I have been testing poisons for many years, and I have developed resistance to many poisons. The same should be true of epidemics. But this is ...... It's a 100-year plan...... Don't say a hundred years, it takes hundreds of years to make it, it's a great merit! What can you do? "The bell must be tied to the bell, and Zhang Xing immediately hit the idea on Baron Twilight.

Su Cheng stood quietly, raised his hand, and a soft flame burst out from his fingertips: "This is not the life fire of the phoenix. An unspeakable being told me that this is the fire of life handed down by Suzaku that is higher than the phoenix! I believe this flame can remove any water-based poison! ”

Zhang Songjing didn't expect that he would look away, he approached Baron Twilight to take a closer look, but was disappointed: "I can't see it." I can't see anything other than the breath of life that is rich in it, and it can only be the fire of life handed down by the phoenix or the Vermilion Bird. Who said that? A god-like being? Seeing the baron nodding, Zhang Songjing was gloomy: "I have practiced medicine and medicine countless people in my life, and I have never been favored by the gods......"

Su Cheng smiled: "The old man is in a good position, right?" How could you have achieved this without the blessing of the gods of the healer? War and production are the two major themes that cannot be avoided in any collective existence, and it is true that they can complement each other and get more opportunities, but only those who go to the dark can move from darkness to light! ”

Zhang Xing was dissatisfied with this answer: "How many nails can you hit even if you are covered in iron?" Epidemic diseases and epidemics are all contagious and can occur on a large scale! ”

Su Cheng said with a smile: "The matter is urgent, I'll implement it on a small scale first!" ”

Zhang Xingdao: "I can help you with this." First, you can only do it in the desert Gobi, which is inaccessible and has no water or grass. Second, I will be involved in future experiments related to this, if necessary! ”

It's not a big deal, it's a big deal that I informed Avanti in advance that he would watch the play at night! On the simple map that Nasruddin gave to Baron Twilight, only the third ambush site met Zhang Xing's requirement of 'inaccessible and devoid of water and grass'.

Seeing that the baron agreed, Zhang Xingzhen took out three ** potions from the medicine box. The potion is red, yellow, and green: "I can't cure the red poison either." Yellow I might be able to cure. The green one can be cured with a packed ticket! ”

Zhang Songjing said: "Now you have no problem with this yellow one!" ”

Possibly! After all, Zhang Xing is now a great master of poison. Zhang Xing also thought of this, and his face was pale: "The way of the doctor, verification first." I don't dare to say that yet. After a pause: "Let's use yellow potion!" "After my cousin's sycophancy, this guy is still inflated.

The target was a war horse, and of course horses were used for experiments. The inferior horses in the bluestone city bazaar are only a few gold coins each, and Boss Su is a baron, so he naturally does not miss this little money, and he bought ten horses with a wave of his hand.

Divide the potion into ten aliquots, two times and three times...... Ten times diluted with water, and fed to ten inferior horses at the same time - the baron had no time, and the experiment could only be carried out at the same time. Experiments have shown that Suzaku's Fire of Life is capable of treating poisons diluted with five or more times more water.

Zhang Songjing said: "Your fire of life is not blazing enough, otherwise, this level of water-attribute poison will be cured by you." ”

Baron Twilight didn't speak. Using the Fire of Life ten times in a row was also quite a burden on him. Luckily, the experiment didn't require him to go all out.

After burying the five dead horses in a deep pit that had been prepared, Zhang Xing poisoned the remaining five inferior horses again, and sure enough, the horses did not show signs of poisoning again except for a slight restlessness. Zhang Xing used different methods to repeatedly diagnose and treat the horses, and confirmed that the horses were healthy: "It is basically certain that these horses are still poisoned, but they will not die." What's next? ”

Baron Twilight bleed the horses with a swing of his sword: "Use this blood to make the other horses sick!" ”

……

Boss Su didn't sleep all night, and the next day's physical strength and life declined slightly. The first thing he did when he led the team into the Yuqi Pagoda Stone was to find Nasruddin.

Shopkeeper: "The adult went out early in the morning, saying that a friend invited him to lunch!" ”

A dignified legend, a legend of wisdom, do you want to behave like a foodie?

Avanti left ahead of time alone, although Su Cheng knew his approximate location, it was impossible to find him quickly. I can only rely on myself! Fortunately, the Yuqi Tashi Space is not exclusive to the use of alliances, and the four mercenary groups can enter at full capacity. These one hundred and twenty people were divided into three teams and one group by Su Cheng according to the structure of the mercenary group. He himself led the core characters of the Seven Swords Headquarters and the Competing Twin Stars to play the role of head-on attack. The Spider Legion is responsible for the left flank of the team, the Pamir Eagle leads the Eagle Mercenary Group and a part of the Competing Double Star personnel to ambush on the right side of Su Cheng, and as for the aborigines led by Norouzi, they will go with the Seven Swords, at that time, they will ambush the land of two arrows behind the Seven Swords, and the Tianshan Wonder Hero will be mixed in it to facilitate Su Boss to give orders. The ambush circle left an opening in the direction of the enemy, in addition to the requirements of the art of war, there was also Su Cheng's expectation that Avanti could find the abnormality in time and take the initiative to help him plug the hole.

Su Susu and Mayila once teamed up to act when they killed Baron Romulo, causing Romulo to fall into the mouth of the black dragon. This time, the act of engaging the enemy was still handed over to Mayila, and Ajibayi was asked to cooperate with her. Su Cheng sprinkled some potions on the grass that Aida sent to collect in front of the two of them: "You two rushed to the ambush point in advance and left these grasses on the side of the road." This is the desertified Gobi, there is no drinking water, it is rare to find green, and the war horses of the Kalmak people will definitely eat these grasses when they see them. When the horse falls ill, it's time for us to attack! The baron then chose two lithe native women: "You two ride to this position, and if you see Nasruddin, tell him to prepare for the evening play." After the word was delivered, he immediately returned to the camp. If you don't see anyone, walk here—" he pointed to a black dot in the middle of the map, and immediately turned back. ”

Before leaving, Norrouzi brought a list: "My lord, this is the list of pregnant women I have collected. I think it might be useful. ”

"You're also useful!" The baron complimented: "I hope you can be more useful." The Kyrgyz need a smart leader! ”

With the addition of more than twenty people from the White-tailed Eagle Tribe, the entire team reached the size of more than one hundred and forty people. Fighting against more than twenty Kalemak warriors, it seems that the number is enough, but Su Cheng knows in his heart that relying on these people, it is not a big problem to win against the Kalemak people head-on, but if you want to be completely annihilated, you must also ensure the safety of the captured pregnant women, these people are still far behind. It's just that the arrow is on the bow at the moment, and it has to be sent.

Although the Kalmaks set out early, they were overtaken by Ajibayi and Mayila before noon, dragged down by women and baggage. The two of them did not stop, and rode directly past the convoy. Inform Boss Su of the enemy's geographical location, and the two of them stayed on the same hill, observing the direction of the convoy in the open.

Mayila is a lively person and often puts forward some opinions that are contrary to Su Boss, and this time is no exception: "We saw a white alkali beach in front of us, which is also a good place for ambushes. Brother Orange, can you feed the poison to these cavalrymen in advance? She relied on a telescope to observe the movements of the people of Calmak and their surroundings, and she had a good grasp of it.

White alkali beach? This terrain is almost devoid of grass, and if there is standing water, it is not drinkable. If you poison here, you don't have to worry about the virus spreading. Su Cheng agreed with Mayila's opinion: "Yes, but I hope you can scatter the poison when the convoy is about to leave Baijiantan." After a ride on alkaline ground, these horses will definitely be tired and thirsty, and the cavalry may not be able to control the horses well at this time! ”

Ajibayi: "Brother Orange, a new question - what will happen if our horses eat this grass?" ”

"Our horses? Adding one piece is not worth three or five gold coins. If you're worried about the impact of poisoning on the battle, chew it right away! ”

Following the rutted hoofprints, the group walked past the first ambush point and searched for the second one, but there was no trace of Nasruddin. Even if Su Cheng released Jin Jiu's volley, reconnaissance would be useless.

This pursuit, but let the Seven Swords and a few people who had learned scout skills in the military camp show off their inadequacy, judging the distance between them and the Kalemak people in the chat window one by one, and then using the shared perspective of Jin Jiu and Su Cheng to verify, one by one is more accurate than the other, which makes the aborigines of Norouzi very surprised: even if they deal with cows, horses and camels all year round, they are only similar to the adventurers of Seven Swords in judging the itinerary of the beast according to the walking traces.

Stepping on the mud of Baijiantan, the ruts and hoof prints became more and more obvious, and Ajibayi sent back the news: "The poisonous weeds have been scattered!" ”

The Seven Swords Alliance soldiers split into two paths and began to overtake the escort team from the side. Here, too, the third ambush site is not far away. When the war horses of the Calmak people show symptoms of poisoning, it is a chance for the seven swords to encircle!

This time, Ajibayi and Mayila disguised themselves as brother and sister collecting forage and walked from the outskirts of the White Alkali Beach to meet the escort of the Kalemaks. The two stood on the side of the road and said in unison: "Sell grass!" Fresh grass – horses don't like to eat it, we don't want money! ”

——The plan of these two people is basically the same as the 'Huangnigang Wisdom Tribulation Birth Gang'!

Neither the Kirgiz nor the Kalemak people have the habit of 'grazing', their habit is grazing, and after the livestock has eaten a pasture, they rush to the next pasture, which is where the summer pasture and the winter pasture come from. Some people do not raise many livestock, and may go to the well-grown pastures in autumn to thrive for ten or twenty days in a row as winter fodder. In any case, very few people will scatter the grass, let alone sell it.

The Calmaks did not let their guard down. A ten-man leader asked, "I have walked thousands of miles on the grassland, and I have never heard that a few handfuls of pasture grass can be sold for money!" I've walked this road many times, why haven't I seen you? ”

Mayila smiled, "It's just that I heard that you walk this road every month, so we came here to sell grass!" This grass is for your horses! ”

This is a true lie, and the other party cannot believe it. The ten people laughed and said, "What will you do if we don't buy your pasture?" ”

Ajibayi said: "Then we will give you this forage for nothing!" ”

These are two fools, right? The soldiers and a dozen pregnant women thought they had misheard.

Mayila said, "That's right! However, we won't be here to sell grass in the future. If you want to get grass to feed your livestock here in the future, you will definitely give money. ”

"If you don't sell it, you won't sell it, why do you want to give it to us this time?" A soldier is strange.

"If I don't give it to you, isn't it tiring to carry this forage on my back? It's a big deal that I won't come in the future! ”

You have a point!

Seeing the look on the face of the Kalemak soldier, he knew that his words had succeeded. Ajibayi took out a large handful of fresh grass and threw it on the road: "If you want to give money, you can give each horse a copper plate." It doesn't matter if you don't want to give it, you won't see you again! ”

Ten men of the long man weighed it slightly, and more than twenty copper plates could give the thirsty and tired horses fresh pasture, which was a good deal, as if they drank two bowls of wine less. Besides, it is too irrational to lose the opportunity that you can get in the future for the sake of twenty copper plates. He didn't count, and directly dropped a handful of copper plates: "I believe you once." Do you have water? Wine is OK too! It can also be sold for money. ”

Ajibayi: "Water can save lives, and if there is more, you can give it, but you can't sell it." Alcohol is too expensive, the risk is high - some people can become wolves when they get drunk - not only do they not give money, but they rob us of our things! ”

The ten people laughed and said, "Do you have anything worth robbing others?" ”

Seeing that the horses had already eaten up the forage, Ajibayi grinned and said, "Yes! Look at it—" The two of them raised their hands together to summon their mounts, jumped on their horses, and walked away.

"Team...... Captain, this ...... These two horses are better than ...... Compare...... Better than our warhorses! A tax collector stumbled.

A whip was whipped on his head: "Nonsense! Labor and management saw ...... It's weird! Pull it out now! ”

A team of people continued on the road with full doubts, did not go far, the captain's yellow flower horse front hooves fell to the ground softly, Rao is ten people long equestrian skills, but also fell a body of white alkali soil. Knowing that something was wrong, the captain got up and hurriedly checked the other horses, his face gradually changing.

A soldier stepped forward: "Captain, it seems that it is a foot-and-mouth plague that appeared in the palace a while ago!" Those two men are here to poison our horses! ”

After repeated confirmations, the captain's face became even more ugly. If it is found that the livestock has foot-and-mouth plague, according to the rules of the grassland, it is necessary to slaughter and bury it immediately, otherwise, once the epidemic spreads, the unlucky person will be the entire grassland.

With a knife cut, the yellow flower horse was stunned on the ground.

"Kill the horse!" After the captain made this difficult decision, he sat down on the ground. The cavalry was forced to slaughter his own war horse, which may not be the most cruel thing in the world, but it will definitely make this cavalryman feel painful and unforgettable for the rest of his life!

After the distress is the fatigue. The animals that died of the disease had to be buried deeply, and that fell to the tax collectors! As for the pregnant women, the soldiers will never make them feel embarrassed for the sake of road management!

The soil of Baijiantan is only loose on the surface, and there is a pickaxe and a white spot below the feet and a half, which is very hard and extremely difficult to dig deeply. Most of the horses were buried, and the tax collectors were too tired to move the cantuman. The captain of the ten men was helpless, and ordered ten Kalemak soldiers to start digging the pit together.

This wave of digging operations not only consumed most of the physical strength of the soldiers and tax collectors, but also delayed the trip for half a day. When the men set out, they realized that the more difficult things had just begun—the whole procession, in addition to the population, had four wagons to be pulled, one with taxes, one with some belongings (mainly ten people long) that had been dumped by the whole group, and two wagons pulling food and water along the road, all of which could not be abandoned.

The journey was difficult, cursing all the way, and the soldiers said that they would break the bodies of the two brothers and sisters who sold them forage. "Ah, they're ahead!" A soldier in charge of the sentry shouted.

Everyone looked up and saw that the two 'brothers and sisters' just now were riding horses, pointing at this side not far away. Uncle can bear it, and aunt can't bear it! Without waiting for the order of the ten chiefs, ten long arrows flew out of the string, but they fell diagonally to the ground ten steps away from the brothers and sisters. The soldiers looked at each other and gave up their intention to hunt each other down. How could a cavalryman without horses succeed in pursuing an enemy on horseback?

Although the commander of the ten was as angry as the soldiers, he was still sensible: "These people have tried their best to kill our war horses, which shows that their strength is not as good as ours. We can't run, and we need to play steadily. Don't worry, everyone, the time to vent will come soon! ”

The best tactic at this time was the Mongol raid tactic, using horses and bows and arrows to attack the opponent until the opponent collapsed. Looking at the mercenaries under his command, Su Cheng could only sigh, everyone has no riding skills—I don't know if the Holy Path will open this setting to players: "Long-range professions take turns to disturb." Be careful not to let them catch up. Also, no more than ten people should show up, they must be the same people, so that the other party can underestimate our strength; It is also avoided that the other dog's dog will jump over the wall and harm those pregnant women. ”

Ten people can basically kill a lone tax collector in seconds, and as for soldiers with higher defense, two waves of concentrated fire are needed. If the mercenaries want to clear the level without damage, they also need to plan every action carefully.

The Calmaks first discarded their baggage. I want to attract the attention of the pursuers. Su Cheng, who saw this scene through Jin Jiu, smiled: "It just so happens that Lao Zhang's convoy has been renting a car, and these two carriages can be given to him." The food is left to the cottage. ”

The second thing that was abandoned was the personal entrainment of ten people, which was fully accepted by Su Cheng.

"It would be better if these fools just gave up on these pregnant women!" King Kong said with a smile.

Nuorouzi said: "Think beautifully." These pregnant women are not only their mission, but also their talisman - if the captain wasn't stupid, he must have thought of that by now! ”

With several strikes, the raiders killed five tax collectors. The last time, the team quickly retreated.

Feng Wu Jiutian: "Brother Orange, they use pregnant women as shields." What to do"

"I saw it. Let me think. ”

This time is different from the hostage incident in Shihong Village, this time there are more than a dozen hostages. And this retreat also allowed the Kalemak soldiers to discover the real purpose of the other party: to rescue these pregnant women.

This makes the mission of the Seven Swords even more complicated.

Su Cheng was at a loss for a moment, and a person riding a donkey appeared in Jin Jiu's perspective.

"Haha, Avanti is here. Wait a minute, this person will definitely have a way! ”

Seeing a golden eagle hovering and chirping in front of him, Nasruddin understood and followed the golden eagle to the team of the Seven Swords. Instead of complaining about Baron Twilight's breach of appointment, he praised Baron Twilight for his ability to completely solve the mobility of the Calmaks: "You did better than I expected. You know, time is on our side. As long as we hold them back, we win most of them. Now the problem is the hostages. Has anything changed along the way? ”

King Kong replied: "We killed five tax collectors." Each person dropped more than a dozen gold coins, these tax collectors are really rich! ”

It's an idiot. Nasruddin ignored the King Kong Cat and only looked at the Baron.

Su Cheng said: "In order to reduce the weight and increase the speed, these people discarded two carts of food supplies. ”

Nasruddin snorted, "They always have to eat. Without baggage, what will you do? ”

Hunt! Su Cheng also thought of it: "Then let them have nothing to hunt!" ”

Scattering the scout horse, the Seven Swords centered on the team of the Calmak people, cleared out a 'vacuum' area of more than ten miles, and scared away all the hares, roe deer, turtledoves and pheasants that could be seen, and hunted them, making up their minds to make the Calmak people have nothing to hunt.

"Jin Jiu saw them hunting. There are two hares in total! ”

Nuorouzi and his entourage remembered that they almost let more than 20 people eat two hares yesterday, and they all shook their heads secretly, this taste is definitely worse than not being able to eat anything!

A stalemate overnight. The numbers on both sides have not changed, but the morale has been very different. There are many people on duty on Qijian's side, and everyone eats and drinks well and sleeps beautifully. The Calmaks listened to the stomach rumbling all night. Those pregnant women were even more dizzy from hunger, and yesterday they were taken hostage by the soldiers, and the faces of both sides had been torn, and their attitudes towards the soldiers had become very bad. They also figured it out: as hostages, the Kalmaks would never dare to kill them easily, so they kept arguing, asking the soldiers for food, water, and rest, which made the Kalmaks even more annoying.

There is no doubt that the combat effectiveness of the Kalemaks was weakened. But no matter how weak these people are, they can kill those pregnant women like crushing an ant. Baron Twilight commands Kin Nine to take to the skies and drop a rabbit in the Calmak camp. In the third case, although it added a little food to the empty stomachs of the Kalemaks, it also made the soldiers even more suspicious: who could tame the darling of the mountain gods.

Note: Foot-and-mouth plague is an artiodactyl animal disease. Horses don't suffer from this disease, so they use it.
