"I'm here to lure the Green Blade Mantis, you attack their heads from a distance, remember not to attack the Green Blade Mantis's belly!"

Lu Yu found that the guards around him who were attacking the Green Knife Mantis had deliberately avoided the abdomen where the Green Knife Mantis was most likely to attack, obviously they also knew the characteristics of the Green Knife Mantis.

"Good!"

Yan Thirteen stepped on the ground with both feet, and the figure appeared in front of a green mantis in a flash, facing the green mantis is a sword, the green mantis raised its forelimbs like a door panel to block, and in the next second, Yan Shisan's figure had moved to the left side of the green mantis, ready to attack the green mantis from the left side, and the long arthropod body of the green mantis also turned to the left with Yan Shisan.

"It's ...... now."

Lu Yu, who was not far away, was already waiting for an opportunity, and when he saw the green knife mantis turn his body, it was too late for the green knife mantis to defend against the attack of that side.

The green mantis's forelimbs danced, ready to block Yan Shisan's long sword, but he felt a strong wind shooting next to him, and it was too late to withdraw his forelimbs and turn his head to block everything, "Poof! Burst! Two of the three arrows hit the green mantis's triangular head, and one flew past the green mantis's head.

"Good archery, come again!"

The near-long-range cooperation of Lu Yu and Yan Shisan made the speed of killing the green sword mantis easy and fast, and at most two rounds could kill a green sword mantis, and the surrounding guards who were entangled with the green sword mantis suddenly felt a lot less pressure.

As the Green Knife Mantis was slain, the riots caused by it subsided, and only Gula wept and counted his losses.

As a result of the count, a total of five or six horses were lost, which was one or two thousand taels of silver!

Yan Shisan walked next to a killed green mantis, swung his sword and cut off the middle section of the green mantis's forelimbs, and threw it to Lu Yu and said, "This piece of meat on the green mantis tastes the best, and it has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, you put it away!" ”

Although Yan Thirteen and Lu Yu killed the most Green Knife Mantis, Yan Thirteen only took the four forelimbs of the Green Knife Mantis, leaving the rest for the other guards.

Obviously, these were nothing to Yan Shisan, he was already used to the wilderness.

Even so, Yan Shisan had no intention of communicating with those guards, and always maintained a suitable distance.

Soon it was sunset, and the caravan encountered several more beast attacks along the way, but there was basically no big loss except for some damage caused by the green knife mantis to the caravan.

In Elephant Trunk Mountain, the biggest problem is actually to spend the night in the wilderness, whether it is a person or a caravan, it will not be too safe at night, so night duty has become the biggest task of this caravan.

Piles of bonfires were lit and formed a circle around the caravan, each with four or five guards next to it, who could take turns to watch the night at night.

Yan Shisan found firewood, and when the caravan stopped for the night, he lit a bonfire, took out a bag of dry food, and ate it silently.

Lu Yu looked at Yan Shisan through the fire, thought about it, took out the forelimbs of the green knife mantis, pried open the hard shell outside, revealing the snow-white and tender muscles inside, and then used a branch to pass through the white meat, sprinkled spices on it and roasted it on the fire, and immediately a fragrance entered the tip of Lu Yu's nose.

The forelimbs of the green knife mantis were very large, and the meat inside weighed four or five catties, Lu Yu handed half of the roasted green knife mantis meat to Yan Shisandao: "Try it." ”

Yan Shisan was not polite, he opened his mouth and took a big bite, blinked his mouth, reached out to touch the oil stains on the side of his mouth and said, "It's baked well, help me bake the rest." ”

Soon Lu Yu roasted the forelimbs of the remaining three green knife mantises, and the monk ate a lot of food, but there was no need not to eat it with an open belly.

Lu Yu ate a few bites, then took out a pot of wine and handed it to Yan Shisan: "Do you want to drink?" ”

Yan Shisan's eyelids raised and said, "It's not safe at night, don't drink!" ”

Lu Yu put away the wine from the good Ruliu, and heard Yan Shisan: "Your archery skills are good, but your riding skills are too poor, the most important thing in riding a horse is to connect with the horse's heart, integrate with the horse when riding, and make yourself a part of the horse, rather than using the horse as a simple means of transportation." ”

When Lu Yu practiced riding in the capital, the trainer also said this to Lu Yu, but it was easy to say, but it was difficult to do.

"Any tricks?"

Yan Shisan stuffed the last piece of green knife mantis meat into his mouth and said, "The easiest way to get along with horses is to sleep with horses, it only takes half a month to have a feeling of heart-to-heart connection." ”

Lu Yu didn't feel that Yan Shisan was teasing himself, but was it really necessary?

Seeing that Lu Yu didn't react, Yan Shisan was not angry, closed his eyes and said, "You are worth the first half of the night, I am worth the second half of the night, and you will call me then!" "I really fell asleep after saying that.

Lu Yu originally wanted to be in the second half of the night, but obviously Yan Shisan was a little worried about Lu Yu.

In the dark night, the mountain wind blew through the valley, making a ghostly whimper, and the listeners were a little creepy, and the swaying bonfire did not make people warm, but a little weird.

Lu Yu expanded his five senses to the limit, feeling all the movements around him, in addition to the whirring wind, from time to time there was the sound of horses squirting gasps, and the sound of crackling flames from the fire, and the sound of anyone talking was no longer heard, and the surroundings were all pitch black, even if it was a sharp visual effect, the whole world seemed to be asleep.

The silence of the mountains made time extremely slow, Lu Yu felt that his eyelids were getting heavier and heavier, he used to be energetic all night without sleeping, but now he couldn't hold on for even an hour.

Lu Yu knew that this was caused by his mental being too nervous, and this was the first time he had spent the night in the wild, and it would be self-deception to say that he was not nervous.

At this time, Lu Yu could only learn to relax his spirit, took out a jade slip and put it on his forehead, so that he could distract some pressure and tension by diverting his attention.

The effect is still good, after all, Lu Yu is not alone in the field overnight, and after reading a few articles about talisman making, Lu Yu, who has some ideas, suddenly feels that time flies.

Lu Yu, who was still thinking about the production of the fire gathering talisman in his mind, suddenly heard Yan Shisan's voice ringing in his ears.

"Yes, it's not easy to quickly adjust your nervous state of mind, but the alertness is still a little lower, relaxation does not mean paralysis, just like sleeping with one eye open, remind yourself of your consciousness and control your five senses, so that even if you sleep, you can feel the danger approaching!"

Lu Yu raised his head and found that he didn't know when, Yan Shisan had already sat beside him, but he didn't notice it at all.

"How did you do it the first time?"

"That's ......." Lu Yu's words reminded Yan 13 of that unforgettable experience, it was a moonlit night, on the prairie, the master left Yan 13 alone, at that time Yan 13 was only 19 years old, just refining the seventh layer of qi, had some self-protection ability, and it was also the first time he went out to practice, that night Yan 13 was chased by more than a dozen wolves all night, and finally jumped into the river to escape the pursuit of the wolves, but he was entangled by an eel in the river, and the eel left four deep wounds on Yan 13's body. It also let Yan 13 know that when encountering a beast in the wild, blindly running away is not a wise way.
