The spring light is just right, and all kinds of mountain flowers in the mountains and forests of Qiongzhou are blooming one after another. The branches under the mountain are gone, and the green fruits are tender and small; There are still remnants of red on the mountainside, nostalgic for the treetops; The top of the mountain is full of flowers, competing for beauty.

The sky is high and the clouds are flowing, the warm wind sends fragrance, Cheng Haofeng and Hu Xianxian, who were flying in the air, looked at the mountains and flowers on the ground, smelling the fragrance of flowers, it should have been very pleasant, but Huo Fei said that the situation of the army made them have no heart to enjoy the flowers.

The king of Fanbang announced that Zacuo, Mao Riwu and others were rebels, and only Night City was completely under their control, and the capture of Night City could declare the success of the campaign, but on the way to Night City, the army was blocked and fell into trouble.

The straight-line distance between Vortex Los Angeles and Night City is only about 1,300 miles, but on the way, you have to climb a large snow-capped mountain, which makes the actual distance even farther.

Daisetsuzan is not a single mountain, but a rolling mountain range consisting of many high and low peaks.

Before leaving, Hu Yonggang was already physically and mentally exhausted by the disappearance of his sister and Cheng Haofeng, and then received the order of the thunder madness to attack the night city, which added to his troubles, he wanted to resign as the general of the expedition, but everyone persuaded him, how could he give up when he saw that he was going to win a big victory?

Before rushing to Night City, Hu Yonggang discussed with the generals and prepared several sets of plans for the enemy in case of an attack in the Daxue Mountain, but who knew that before he reached the Daxue Mountain, he only passed through a small valley and encountered danger when he reached a swamp near the Daxue Mountain.

That small valley is called "Golden Sheep Valley", and it is only more than 300 miles away from Vortex Luocheng, where Hu Xianxian was attacked and disappeared.

The vanguard team of the expeditionary army did not encounter an attack when they crossed the Golden Sheep Valley, but they encountered a heavy rainstorm. Fanbang is located in the northwest plateau, and this area receives very little rainfall, and even less when it rains non-stop.

Fan Dingyao led the forward team to look for a place to shelter from the rain, but there were only a very small number of nomads around, and in the end, they didn't find a place to shelter from the rain, so they had to help the nomads hold tents to avoid floods.

When the rain stopped, the warriors who went to the battlefield to kill the enemy all became chickens, where it was still very cold in March, and the strikers were all lightly armed, there were no warm clothes, and there was no change in wet clothes, and the clothes were frozen, and many soldiers were sick.

The Chinese army had not yet crossed the Golden Sheep Valley, and the area was not far from the city, so there were some villages, although they were all houses made of rubble and adobe, which could shelter from the wind and rain.

Hu Yonggang waited for two days in a nearby village with the Chinese soldiers, and after the rain was a little lighter, he heard that many of the forward soldiers were sick, so he had to redeploy and replace the sick soldiers, and then begged to buy medicinal materials and send them.

After several busy times, Hu Yonggang was physically exhausted and sick, but he still insisted on taking the Chinese army team through the Golden Sheep Valley.

The forward team and the Chinese army team will be in one place, ready to rest and recuperate before climbing the snowy mountain.

When it rained heavily, the team of the royal palace was still in the city, and they did not suffer from the rain and sickness, but they were the least numerous, and they were attacked when they crossed the Golden Sheep Valley.

Sandwiched between the two mountains, the narrow terrain in the valley was already easy to be ambushed, and the deputy general who led the team also entered the valley directly without even exploring the road because the two people in front of him passed safely.

As soon as they entered the valley, the poisonous smoke drifted away, the poisonous water sprayed indiscriminately, and the poisonous sand was scattered, and some of the panicked soldiers wanted to rush out of the valley as quickly as possible, and some wanted to retreat back to the flat dam, and there were as many soldiers who were trampled to death as there were soldiers who were poisoned when they squeezed around.

Fortunately, Erta, Quabu, Qu Zhen and a few others were calm, and after the lieutenant general who led the army was also poisoned and fell to the ground, he commanded the soldiers in the valley to cover their mouths and noses as much as possible, and rushed forward out of the valley in an orderly manner, not allowing them to think about retreating again.

In this way, a small half of the team behind the palace escaped, reducing casualties, but even this made Hu Yonggang heartbroken, and the army once again delayed the time to march to the Great Snow Mountain.

When Cheng Haofeng and Hu Xianxian arrived at the temporary camp of the expeditionary army, they saw that the camp tents were all set up in the mud, the twilight was vast, and the entire military camp was also gloomy.

Seeing Hu Yonggang and the generals, they talked about their respective situations, and then discussed countermeasures.

Listening to Erta, who escaped from the attack, they talked about the poisonous smoke, poisonous sand, poisonous water, etc., it was very similar to attacking with a watering cloud can, a sprinkler cloud pot and an Izumo pot, why did the Fanbang rebels have these special weapons?

Cheng Haofeng asked Yun Biqiong, how could she provide weapons for the rebels in Fanbang? Yun Biqiong replied that she had never provided weapons to Zacuo and them at all, and she had not even leaked the production method.

The stars sank to the west, Xu Dongsheng rose, and after a night of discussion, Cheng Haofeng asked Hu Yonggang and them to rest first, and he and Hu Xianxian went to the Golden Sheep Valley to check.

Judging from the remains of the corpses and traces, the weapons used by the sneak attack were made by people who were familiar with the production method, but the difference with the Izumo pot, the watering cloud pot, and the sprinkler cloud pot was that the materials used were all highly poisonous rather than chili powder and peppercorn noodles.

The two of them were puzzled, could it be that there was a conspiracy? If there is a traitor in the army who leaks the manufacturing method, then the internal hoe and rape must be reviewed, wouldn't it be even more chaotic for the army?

After checking in and out of the valley a few times and not finding any useful clues, the two were about to leave, when Cheng Haofeng's ears suddenly moved slightly, and he looked intently at a bush on the other side of the swamp.

Hu Xianxian followed his gaze and realized that there was a faint demonic aura there, and there were subtle fluctuations in the aura along with the demonic qi.

The two glanced at each other, and confirmed each other's guesses from each other's eyes, there are monsters infested here, and there are very clever formations set up here! But does this have anything to do with the attack on the ranks of the royal palace?

Cheng Haofeng's face was slightly solemn, and he turned into a black rope and rolled it towards the bushes!

"Ah......" In the scream, a thin man was tied up by a black rope, and Cheng Hao's luck pulled him into the air and fell to his feet.

The thin man was smashed half to death, and he was still scolding and scolding with words in his mouth, Cheng Haofeng's face turned gloomy, his left hand pinched his chin and twisted it violently, his jaw bone was suddenly misplaced, and he could only crook his mouth and hum in pain, and he couldn't scold anymore.

"And interrogate him, what about the news, how do you let him talk like this?" Hu Xianxian asked in a strange tone.

"You can't understand the words, he scolded too badly." Cheng Haofeng glanced at the man and continued, "There is no need to judge, I already know that he belongs to the Ghost Golden Sheep clan, and he is a servant with a very low cultivation, and he just scolded a lot of dirty words for his fifth sheep son." ”

"The Ghost Golden Goat? Sheep Demon ...... The fifth son of the sheep? Hu Xianxian was stunned, and remembered that the ghost Golden Sheep clan was in the boundary of Fanbang, which is also called "Golden Sheep Valley", and the clan may not be far from here.

Cheng Haofeng was sure that she was right, and then pointed at the thin man and said, "You take him back to the barracks and detain him first, and don't take any action before I send a message." ”

Before he understood what he was going to do, he turned his back to Hu Xianxian, and when he turned back to face Hu Xianxian, he was exactly the same as the thin man.

Hu Xianxian understood that he was going to disguise himself as a member of the Ghost Golden Sheep clan to sneak in, secretly find out the matter, and ensure that his future actions were foolproof.

Unexpectedly, Cheng Haofeng was just about to enter the formation along the place where the aura fluctuated behind the bushes, and was immediately bounced back, and the thin man let out a "ho-ho" mocking sound in his throat.

Cheng Haofeng turned back, grabbed the man's collar, and stared at him as if he had seen through his heart.

First his eyes were sharp, then his eyes were cold, and finally Cheng Haofeng had a playful smile in his eyes, dragging him straight to the aura fluctuation.

At the moment when he was about to step into the formation and had not yet stepped into the formation, Cheng Haofeng's left middle finger and index finger pinched the man's throat, and with one force, his throat was cut off and he was dying, and the corner of his mouth was bleeding!

The moment the blood flowed out, the thin man had not completely swallowed his breath, and a thin crack opened at the aura fluctuation, and Cheng Haofeng dodged and drilled in!

The man fell limply outside the formation, and soon turned into a huge dead antelope again.

Hu Xianxian understood that the entry and exit of the formation not only required the entrance of the formation, but also the approval of the Ghost Golden Sheep bloodline before entering, but the person who set up the formation did not expect that Cheng Haofeng would rush into the formation at such an instant.

Without extra sympathy, taking pity on the thin man, Hu Xianxian hurried back to the camp to discuss business with Hu Yonggang.

They decided to wait for Cheng Haofeng and bury the bodies of the sacrificed soldiers at the same time, and then find more soldiers who had been treated with medicinal herbs, and wait for Cheng Haofeng to come back for other military operations.

When he went to the Golden Sheep Valley to collect the remains of his comrades, Hu Xianxian looked at the body of the huge antelope, sighed and found a depression to dig a pit and bury it.

In a hurry, a few days later, Cheng Haofeng sent a message from the spirit talisman to find out the hidden circumstances behind the Ghost Golden Sheep clan's participation in the attack.

Although this Ghost Golden Sheep clan has no direct blood relationship with the Ghost Golden Sheep of the Stars, their ancestors once followed the Lord of the Stars, and the Guardian Formation of this settlement was laid down with the help of the Lord of the Ghost Golden Sheep Stars.

The current Ghost Golden Sheep Patriarch knows that the sheep demon of the fifth prince of the sheep is not his own son, but he hopes that he will cultivate to a high-level immortal position, or at least recognize the head of the East China Sea Rain Worker, and connect with the forces of the East China Sea.

I never thought that Foreman Yu didn't recognize the fifth son of the sheep, and the fifth son of the sheep was caught and tortured by Cheng Haofeng, and finally killed by his biological father because of the dream stealing ice gall.

It's not that Foreman Yu doesn't believe that Yang Wugongzi is his son, but he doesn't want to recognize him, for fear that he will bring trouble and affect his future.

But after all, blood is thicker than water, and it is also heartbreaking that Foreman Yu was forced to kill his own son for the sake of the dragon ** to let him go, and he remembered all his hatred on Cheng Haofeng and them.

Dorjee. Kale is a native of Fanbang, and in order to cultivate, he traveled to every inch of Fanbang and got acquainted with the patriarch of the Ghost Golden Sheep.

In order to resist the expeditionary army, he begged the Ghost Golden Sheep Patriarch to help him, and the Ghost Golden Sheep Patriarch knew that the rain foreman also hated Cheng Haofeng and them, so they united.

The heavy rainstorm was rained down by the rain foreman, and it was the ghost golden sheep clan who attacked the team behind the palace.

As for why those weapons were so similar to those made by Qiyun Villa, they were made by Wang Shuai for them, and Yun Biqiong didn't know.

Wang Shuai participated in the development and trial process of special weapons such as watering cloud cans, and he was very smart, and he had already produced samples in the first month of this year.

At the banquet of peace talks in the capital, Wang Shuai once offered some delicacies from the mountains and seas, one of which was the wild donkey meat of Fanbang, which had the most wild ass in the ghost golden sheep settlement.

Going south and north, the Wang family, which has made friends with the major forces in the world, has contacts with the ghost golden sheep family, but the friendship is not deep, and it is not until Wang Shuai and the five sons of the sheep make friends that they have close contact.

After Hu Xianxian understood these hidden secrets, he was stunned. Keller, the five sons of the sheep demon, and Wang Shuai are all people who have enmity and entanglement with Hu Xianxian, is it God's will to count the new hatred and old hatred together?
