"That's it."

After shooting a pot of arrows, Chen Wu shook his arm that was a little out of strength, and specified the bow with satisfaction. Then, for self-defense, he chose a short knife from the weapon rack. Except for the lack of leather armor, the rest is the standard Imperial Infantry Archer attire. In order to avoid being seen on the road, Chen Wu left empty-handed, and Dian Yong would carry it for him.

The emblem of the Imperial Infantry Archer made Dian Yong look at Chen Wu a few times, but the doubts in his heart were even greater.

The young man in front of him seemed to be shrouded in a mystery.

He can't see through it!

………

The decision has been decided, and the next thing is to wait patiently.

The long days passed little by little, and although he was not sleepy, Chen Wu still forced himself to sleep to recharge his energy for the night's actions. As for the officials and officers in charge of the recruitment, they had already left in the afternoon. If it weren't for the lack of manpower, which could only be carried out in batches, their harvest would have increased a lot. By the time the party departed, escorted by the baron's servants, there was already a large herd of cattle and sheep in the procession, and at least fifteen horses.

That's a lot of money.

All they paid for it was an imperial requisition, plus a pitiful few copper coins each. As long as these cattle are transported back to Yicheng and handed over to the cattle and horse merchants of the trading house that have been agreed on a long time ago, they will change hands on dozens of times the profit. Since the large truck is from them, it can be delivered directly without even unloading the truck after it arrives, saving time and effort.

As for the requisition of the Empire?

Just give a few old and weak animals to deal with, and the empire doesn't expect much to contribute from this side anyway.

The real big head, in the three counties of Wuhu, Qinghe and Hetao!

Due to the lack of manpower and the bloated team, it was not until night fell that the conscription team traveled less than ten miles. At this rate, it may not take two more days to reach Yicheng. In desperation, they could only circle a place in the nearby mountain temple on the side of the road and rest for the night.

At this time, Chen Wu also took advantage of the cover of night and slipped outside Changshan Town.

With the help of the faint moonlight, Chen Wu saw that there was no one near the post pavilion, which made him feel shocked. Fortunately, before he could think too much, a burly figure came out of the woods behind the post house. The hazy moonlight just broke through the clouds and shone on Dian Yong. Dressed in a black power suit, with a black scarf on his head, and a two-stone hard bow and quiver on his back, he looks awe-inspiring and mighty.

"You're late."

Dian Yong lowered his voice and said, and without waiting for Chen Wu to reply, he raised his hand and threw over the wrapped weapon that Chen Wu had tried before. Bows, quivers, wrenches, etc., as well as the short knife, which was also bladed. For Dian Yong, the knife was too light and completely ornamental. But for Chen Wu, the weight is just right, and it is a sharp weapon to kill.

Is it the first time you kill someone since you crossed over?

The cold blade exuded a chill that made the hairs stand on end in the night, making Chen Wu's blood boil for the first time in a long time. At this moment, Chen Wu, a villager in Changshan Town, who had survived for a month, died completely. Instead, it's the super guild player who has been rampant in Empire for more than a decade!

This change in momentum was so obvious that Dian Yong in the dim darkness felt it, and couldn't help but glance at him.

"Let's go."

Chen Wu put the bow and arrow on his back, hung up the knife, and restrained his feelings, as if he was the mastermind tonight.

Dian Yong is not a person who likes nonsense, and seeing that Chen Wu was ready, he silently turned around and disappeared into the woods next to the post road. Due to his tall stature and the rhythm of his steps, his pace was so fast that Chen Wu had to trot to keep up. Because the brightness of the night was acceptable, out of secrecy, Dian Yong did not light the torch. Fortunately, one of the two is superior in martial arts, and the other is in good health, and they have no night blindness, so they can grope their way forward in the dark.

More than an hour later, the two ran out of more than ten miles and came to the edge of Yishan.

Although the mountain of Yishan is not high, it stretches for dozens of miles, and the name of Yicheng is said to come from this. Since there are many suitable places to hide, at least one-third of the bandits and thieves in the entire Long Son Province have a foothold here. It's not that the emperor has not come to suppress it, but unfortunately he has not achieved any effect several times. Since then, the county order of Yicheng has not been bothered to care.

If you're not mistaken, the Black Turban Thief's lair is here.

"Have you arrived?"

Seeing Dian Yong looking at the nearby terrain, Chen Wu asked in a low voice.

Dian Yong repeated the comparison for a moment, thought about it, and shook his head: "It's still a little close, but it's almost there." ”

Having said that, the two of them walked through the mountains and forests for nearly half an hour before they gradually approached their destination. During the whole process, the two did not speak, but hurried silently one after the other.

Due to the frequent hunting in the mountains in winter, Dian Yong was familiar with this mountain forest, and it didn't take long for him to find a trail that was enough for a team of horses to cross. According to Dian Yong, this is the only way for the black turban thief to travel.

"There it is!"

In the darkness, Dian Yong's slightly joyful voice sounded.

With the help of the moonlight, Chen Wu looked along the place pointed by Dian Yong and saw messy horseshoe prints on the ground. The imprint is fresh, and even the indentations on the fallen leaves are clearly visible, so it can be inferred that it has only been a long time. As for the quantity, the horseshoe prints on the ground were too chaotic, and it was not something that Chen Wu could deduce.

In "Empire", there are special players who do this errand, and Chen Wu is not omnipotent.

However, although Chen Wu couldn't see it, he couldn't help but be brave. After a little groaning, he calculated the number of black turban thieves dispatched: "About twenty horsemen, more than half of them are double horses!" ”

You can see the quantity, this Chen Wu is not strange, but more than half of them are doubles and horses, this can also be seen?

If you are an ordinary person, you may be surprised. But Chen Wu had mixed in the game after all, and it quickly occurred to him that there were subtle differences in the depth of the hoof prints. Although it is difficult to notice at night, it can be noticed by those who can observe it in detail. If you count the ratio of shades, you can probably get a number.

As for why the two of them rode together, it is estimated that there will be enough manpower to retrieve the requisitioned cattle when they return.

At this moment when he was distracted, Dian Yong was already busy with himself.

First, I took a turn around the neighborhood and found a relatively hidden, but well-sighted spot, suitable for sniping. Then, Dian Yong took out a bundle of fine hemp rope dyed black from his body and carefully wound it around the two adjacent trees, acting as a tripping rope. Because it is attached to the leaves, it is difficult to spot without looking closely.

The black scarf thief who grabbed a vote and returned from a big victory is almost bound to be fooled when he is triumphant.

Chen Wu was not idle.

Although his preparation is not as full as Dian Yong, he also has unique skills that belong to the player. After tidying up the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and stuffing a few more stones, it became an inconspicuous pit. It seems to be flat ground, but when the horse is running and stepping on it, it is at night, and there is a good chance that it will hit its hooves or even fall. It can be a person who rolls on his back, or a direct fracture or even a coma.

It's a humble trick, but it's not bad. In the first few months of popularity, I don't know how many players dared to ride horses at night.

In fact, many hunters will use the methods arranged by Chen Wu, and Dian Yong can probably understand it after looking at it. The reason why he didn't do it was because he was confident in his own strength, and because he was afraid that similar arrangements would be self-defeating and hurt his own horse. But since Chen Wu did it, Dian Yong didn't stop it.

After waiting for a qiē to be arranged, the two retreated a few dozen steps and came to the hiding place that had been planned in advance.

The long wait began.

According to Dian Yong, no matter how fast the black turban thief is, it is estimated that he will not be able to return until the second half of the night. It was undoubtedly boring to just do this, and after trekking so far on the mountain road, the wound on my head began to ache faintly during the day. Chen Wu casually pulled up a topic in order to distract himself, and said, "That green horse, it seems to be very important to you?" ”

Things are evident during the day.

Dian Yong had no intention of confronting those officials, but it was because of this horse that he made up his mind to use the black turban thief.

"That horse was given to me by the master who taught me martial arts and strategies before he died." Dian Yong was silent for a moment, said the reason, and then asked rhetorically: "What about you, why do you have to come with me?" ”
