Chapter 76: The Choice of the Way Ahead
The three of Ji Long were talking and laughing, and the Pure Divine Sound and the Miao Shen Yin didn't know what they were talking about, because what they said contained too many words they didn't know.
However, Ji Long and Wang Rushuang are very measured, and they don't use any words that violate the rules of the system.
Since they couldn't understand it, the two divine voices simply ignored them, carefully maintained the battle formation, and at the same time enjoyed being idle.
After two hours, the group finally saw the shore of the lake and saw the forest of trees anew.
This time, they have completely avoided the tracking of the Demon Srath Sect, as long as they hide their identities well, do not enter the big city, and do not go to crowded places, it will be difficult for the Demon Scar Sect to find them again.
Although there are many followers of the Demon Demon Sect, they can't search the entire Taihu Lake, and its enormity will make them desperate.
Ji Long and his party escaped control, and of course the five ghost emperors were furious, but it didn't help, so they could only send more people to major cities and villages to squat, waiting for their group to appear again.
And Ji Long and the others, after going ashore, did not go to Wuxi City, nor did they enter Gusu City, but continued to walk north along the Taihu Lake.
They planned to go to the Yangtze River area under Guangling in the north first, and then take advantage of the one-horned python in the water to advance west from the Yangtze River, escape from Yueguo, and enter the territory of Chu.
With the current situation, the Demon Demon Sect must be heavily guarded at various checkpoints leading to the Chu State, and if you take the land route, unless you pass through the deep mountains and old forests, it will be difficult to break through the layers of checkpoints.
It is very dangerous to walk through the deep mountains and old forests, and the Chinese jungle during the Warring States Period is as primitive as the Amazon, and there are countless dangers in it, so it is better to go through the forest than to break through.
If you take the waterway, the unicorn python can be completely independent, even if there is a strange beast in the water, it will avoid it, after all, it is close to the existence of the dragon, and it looks quite deterrent.
Coupled with the breath of the wilderness of the colorful and exquisite snake, they are completely indifferent to the monsters in the water.
And the Yangtze River during the Warring States period was not developed, and it was still primitive, so there were not many checkpoints set up in the Yangtze River basin, only a few cities near the river, with one or two checkpoints.
Therefore, it is the safest and wisest route to leave the country by water.
As soon as Wang Rushuang put forward this plan and suggestion, the two divine voices agreed in unison, and praised her for her strategy.
It is worth mentioning that Yin Zifan really followed Du Yongwang, and he was unwilling to leave no matter how much he persuaded him.
In other words, his purpose is to follow Ji Long and his party, after all, he is a member of the Louguan faction.
Both the Holy Sound Tomb and the Demon Demon Sect have sent experts to 'please' Ji Long, how can the Louguan Sect stand by and watch?
For Yin Zifan and the three of them to follow, the two divine voices have always maintained an unhappy attitude, but Ji Long is very happy, and the three living treasures are also happy, so they can't help it.
Wuxi City, also known as Xinwu, Liangxi and Jinkui, is a representative city located on the north side of Taihu Lake, and is known as the "Pearl of Taihu Lake"; The territory is dominated by plains, scattered with low mountains and remnant hills; It belongs to the northern subtropical humid monsoon climate zone, with four distinct seasons and sufficient heat.
In ancient times, the Yangtze River Delta was unexplored, and most of it was grassland, as boundless as the Mongolian steppe, with little farmland and not many people living there.
Therefore, behind Wuxi City, there is an endless prairie, even if there are some hills and valleys, it is harmless for the whole.
On the plains and grasslands, there are only a few village herdsmen, until they reach the mouth of the Yangtze River, and there are no big cities in this area, or there are no human settlements that can be regarded as cities.
If they directly crossed Wuxi City, Ji Long and they would be able to enter this prairie within a day, and once they entered this place, they would be high enough for birds to fly.
After all, the grassland is too vast, extending in all directions, and the vision is broad, and it is difficult for the people of the Demon Demon Sect to contain it.
As long as they saw the shadow of the enemy from afar, if Ji Long and they wanted to escape, the Demon Demon Sect would not be able to stop it without tens of thousands of disciples.
Although there are many followers of the Demon Demon Sect, it is impossible to put tens of thousands of people into a grassland, what if Ji Long and the others don't go to the grassland? Isn't that a waste of troops?
Therefore, it is foreseeable that the people of the Demon Demon Sect will not gather in the grassland, at most the human cities and villages scattered around the grassland, and the villages in the grassland will also send some people to guard them.
Ji Long and the others knew that there would be a safe road when they entered the grassland, but they were not in a hurry, and did not risk crossing Wuxi City, but chose to take a detour.
If it is blocked in Wuxi City, it will be miserable.
According to the map of the Warring States Period, if you want to bypass Wuxi City and enter the prairie in the north, you need to cross three mountain ranges from the east; From the west, there are only flat jungles and a few small and large villages.
As the decision-maker of the team, Wang Rushuang chose to take a detour from the west.
Because the three mountain ranges in the east are simply a wall of heaven, coupled with the sea, the climate is unstable, and under the special climate, it is very likely to create some unknown monsters, and once encountered, it will be difficult to move an inch.
The strength of the two divine sounds, the 'Great Beauty', and Yin Zifan is very strong, and the five female disciples are not bad, but compared to the strange beasts and monsters in the wild, it is okay to have one or two heads, if there are a few or a group, they will also hate it.
The bizarre events that have been handed down from ancient times to the present day are mostly in the mountains, and these are not imaginary, and in front of nature, the more bizarre things are, the less strange they are.
For example, the army disappeared into the mountains inexplicably, and there were not even corpses left; Another example is that after a peerless master enters the deep mountains, there is no return, etc.
Therefore, Wang Rushuang did not dare to choose to take the east, even if they were sure that there would be no people from the Demon Demon Sect in the three mountain ranges in the east, they still chose to abandon this road.
The flat jungle in the west is more populated, and it is estimated that the people of the Demon Demon Sect will appear more frequently, especially because they are known for their pervasiveness, and it is very likely that an ordinary peasant is one of their disciples.
However, Ji Long and the others have a very strong anti-reconnaissance ability, once they encounter the followers of the Demon Demon Sect, they can find out as soon as possible, and make corresponding countermeasures, whether to choose to kill the enemy in the dark, or to get rid of the enemy's reconnaissance, they have a choice.
Combining various factors, Wang Rushuang chose to go west.
Her choice was unanimously approved by everyone, no one wanted to go to Wuxi City and the three mountain ranges in the east, so they had no choice but to go to the west .......
Walking along the edge of Taihu Lake, the group is not in a hurry, the speed of travel is average, from the morning to the night now, they have not left the edge of Taihu Lake, it can be judged that their walking speed is no different from ordinary people, not as fast as the master rushing.
According to the plan, they would need to walk twenty or thirty kilometers west along the lake, and then go north, so that they could completely break away from the confines of Wuxi City.
If it is not out of its sphere of influence, there is no detour, if it is cowering and ineffective, it is better to cross Wuxi City directly.
Therefore, if they want to make a detour, they will definitely go around it completely.
