Chapter 552: Waiting for Them
Then Wen Qing instructed the others, "Everyone spread out a little." ”
Everyone didn't know what medicine was sold in Wen Qing's gourd.
So the circle they formed enclosed was greatly enlarged.
Wen Qing got back on the horse, took the Wan Yu umbrella away, and turned the Wan Yu umbrella into the shape of a spear.
Seeing this, Ye Shen and Mo Hai also got on their horses and drew their sabers.
Ye Shen asked, "Miss Wen, what's the situation, didn't they run away?" Are we waiting for them to come back now? Waiting for the rabbit? But how do we know when they will come again? It doesn't seem very reliable, what if they don't come? Aren't we going to have to wait here for most of the day? Or will they not come when they see us? Or must they be in this place? ”
Wen Qing said, "I just observed the illusion around me, and there are stone mountains around them, only this one is yellow soil. You know what I mean. ”
Chu Yun shook his head and said, "I don't understand." ”
Wen Qing explained, "Although they are using the Escape Technique, this technique must also come from the Immortal Realm on Earth, I think, this is not a local thing after all, how long have they been learning?" Are you proficient? Have you learned everything from other people? That's a problem, right? ”
"There is another question, can this retreat penetrate stones? I don't think so. ”
A few people nodded and said, "It seems to make some sense." ”
At this time, Zhu, who had not spoken at this time, said obliquely, "Then what if they don't come back?" Are you thinking wrong? ”
Ye Shen and the three of them all knew that Zhu Xian was now lying on the back of the big dog Xiao Ming, so they didn't think it was strange to see Xiao Ming talking, but those snake scale soldiers were different, they all stared at Xiao Ming, and their faces under the mask must have been full of doubts at this time, but although they were curious, no one asked.
They only obey Chu Yun's orders now, and as for the rest, they can be curious, but they are not qualified to pursue the answer.
Wen Qing let out a long breath and said, "If you think wrong, you think wrong, can you still run to their base camp and bring them back, guess wrong, then we will go home directly, this should be done, right?" ”
Zhu sneered and didn't speak again.
Wen Qing said, "But I still think that they are under the ground now, and they can't drill this stone mountain." ”
Mo Hai questioned, "If they can't drill into this stone mountain, then how did they get here?" ”
Wen Qing said, "How do you think they got here?" If it is also by the art of retreat, then I have nothing to say, after all, they can drill through the stone mountain when they come, so they can naturally do it when they go back, there is nothing to dispute about this. ”
"But what if they're not just walking as you think?"
Wen Qing continued, "We can only wait and see." After all, I'm just guessing. ”
Several people agreed, anyway, the night gate has not come yet, and other things on the defense line have their own people to do, and they will not be in a hurry for a while.
Taking advantage of this time, several people discussed this move about the night door again.
Chu Yun said, "First of all, since they did this, then they must have taken it seriously, they knew that we asked for reinforcements, and secondly, these reinforcements threatened them, so they sent people here to stop our people from going down the mountain to move rescue troops." ”
Ye Shen disagreed, "I don't think what you said is very right, and then let's go back to the topic just now, since you want to prevent us from sending people to move the rescue troops again, why don't you send very powerful people?" ”
"You think that Yemen doesn't think it's necessary at all, because now is the time to employ people, in addition, they think that we are also employing people, and they won't send too powerful people down the mountain to ask for help, for example, even if you go to the nearest Luoyang City, it will take a day and a night to come and go."
"Important people have been out for so long, so I'm afraid that the door number of the Tianzi Villa will be replaced by the night gate."
"But I think that since Yemen has begun to pay attention to this matter, it will definitely not be so simple to think of things, how to say, they will definitely think of more than such a possibility, such as us sending a large number of people to the foot of the mountain to arrest them. They must have thought of this possibility, so they sent a few people with strong escape ability. ”
"Then things come back to the beginning, they stay at the foot of the mountain, and when they see people coming down from the mountain, if they see some ordinary disciples, they stop them, and if they see a large number of people coming down the mountain, they don't see anything and they don't stop them."
"In fact, that's exactly what they do, and their purpose is very obvious, they know what to do and what not to do."
"It's not something they realize, it's something that the night gate told them to do it."
"In other words, if you can stop it, you can stop it, and if you can't stop it, forget it."
"After this sentence, there is actually a subtext, that is, we are about to take down the bone firebird anyway."
"So from this matter, we can draw a confidence that the Night Gate will soon gather their disciples to attack us."
Wen Qing gave Ye Shen a thumbs up and said, "I agree with your idea, your analysis is very reasonable." ”
Mo Haidao, "Then let's assume that those people just now go back now..."
Wen Qing shook her head, "If they can drill through the surrounding stone mountains, then it is impossible for them to go back, because their mission is to stop the people who go out of the mountain to find reinforcements here, they just need us to go back to the mountain, and they will reappear." ”
Mo Haidao, "Then what if we catch them?" ”
"Of course, we'll take them straight back to the lodge, but we'll pretend to let them go alone."
"Why do you do that?"
"Of course, it's for him to go back and report the news, if they can't catch them, they won't go back, if only one of them is left, he can't complete the task at all, he will definitely go back and report the situation to Yemen."
"Is this a good thing or a bad thing? How would Yemen react when he found out about this? Will it be angry? If it's just to provoke them, it doesn't seem to make sense. ”
Wen Qing shook her head and said, "Anger them? It really doesn't make much sense, but it's hard to provoke them with this! ”
"They sent these few people who can escape, in fact, they have given up on them by default, free-range, they like to toss and toss, anyway, if they can fight, they will run. They were even ready to sacrifice them. I don't care about them at all, so how can I still be angry? ”
"Just like Ye Shen said, they definitely didn't just think about the most likely possibility in theory."
"However, they can casually sacrifice a few magicians, so you can see how many powerful magicians there are in their sect?"
Chu Yun said, "Then if we really catch them and deliberately let one person go back, then after he goes back to report Yemen, will they do nothing?" ”
Wen Qing shook her head, "It's not that you don't do nothing, maybe speed up the process of attacking us, because even a few of their retreating magicians have missed, and they probably don't have any more suitable people to send, if they insist on sending them again, it will be the gourd master to save grandpa, send them one by one, I am happy for them to do this!" ”
"And when they don't have the right person to send them again, they are worried that we will continue to look for reinforcements, and on the other hand, they are worried that the reinforcements we are looking for will pose a threat to them. So they had to speed up. ”
"This may really be a good thing for us, our defense line has been almost arranged, it doesn't take much time to prepare, Yemen definitely didn't expect that in less than two days, our defense line can be deployed so quickly, but what about them? Coming without being fully prepared is not a good thing for them. ”
Several people nodded and said, "Now let's wait for those guys to come forward." ”
"Then if we really can't stay with them, won't we have to go home?"
Wen Qing nodded and said, "That's the only way, and not only that, because those guys are stuck here, we can't send people down the mountain anymore." ”
"And then Yemen will continue to prepare, which is not a good thing."
Chu Yun said, "Then we will stay here until we catch them." ”
Wen Qing shook her head and said, "No, if they can't even pass through the stone mountain, then we can't do it at all, and if they can use a few people to drag us down a hundred or so, then their role is even greater than the role of the people who are blocked here and don't give us to go down the mountain to ask for reinforcements." ”
Ye Shen said, "Then Miss Yiwen, how long will it take to see if they can pass through this rocky mountainous area?" ”
Wen Qing estimated the time and said, "It should be soon, if you hold it any longer, they will die." ”
She immediately asked, "Do you have a rope?" ”
Chu Yun turned to those snake scale soldiers and asked, "Which of you brought a rope?" ”
Seven or eight people all raised their hands, and Wen Qing directly asked them to come out.
There were eight people in all, and Wen Qing instructed them, "Tie the end of the rope into a slipknot, and if someone gets out of the ground, put it directly on their heads, and drag them out." ”
The eight snake scales answered, and began to tie a slipknot at the end of the rope.
Wen Qing continued, "There are six of them in that group, when they come out in a while, you pay attention to the number, only five are allowed, and after the five are set, they will withdraw immediately, do you understand?" ”
One of them said, "What if all six of them come out at the same time?" ”
Wen Qing shook her head and said, "No, it's like holding your breath underwater, there must be some people who hold it for a longer time, and some people who hold it for a longer time." ”
"When you catch five people, we'll evacuate immediately."
The eight snake scales nodded again.
Zhu Xian was lying on the ground, but at this time, he suddenly stood up and said with a smile, "Wen Qing, I really let you guess correctly." ”
