Chapter 6: Assassination of the Guangyu Clan
Ten days later, Youer sent someone to the temple's student dormitory to inform Long Tiantong that he was ready to leave. But he also brought a small problem: Long Tiantong needed to bring a few sets of casual clothes, and the style should be consistent with the clothing style of the Guangyu clan.
This look was prepared to facilitate infiltrating the world of the Guangyu clan, but it made Long Tiantong a little difficult.
So Long Tiantong finally ran to find his mother for the first time to find a way.
When you buy clothes, you still have to ask your mother for help.
The Blackwing Hostess met her daughter in the small garden, and after asking Long Tiantong's intentions, the Blackwing Hostess smiled: "Tiantong, you are so old, you still don't know how to choose your own clothes?"
"No," Long Tiantong pouted slightly, "That's because the clothes of the Guangyu Clan are completely different from ours! But I read the book that the Guangyu people like to wear white, and they also wear light blue, light cyan or something, and pink or something, which is completely different from us! And even the style is different, their clothes are loose, and it is inconvenient to exercise at first glance, but we mainly use close-fitting strong clothing. And what's more...... Even the ornaments on your hands and ears are different......"
The Black Wing Mother smiled and narrowed her eyes, listening to Long Tiantong babbling about the differences between the Black Wing Clan and the Guangyu Clan in terms of culture and clothing, and enjoyed this kind of conversation between mother and daughter rarely.
When Long Tiantong finally finished muttering, at the end, the Black Wing Mistress said, "I have made a few clothes for you in the past few days, you can try them." ”
"Huh, are you ready?"
Looking at her daughter's surprised expression, the Blackwing Mother smiled again, her daughter can do everything when it comes to combat skills, spells, and abilities, but when it comes to these things in life, she is a rough girl, and as for emotional things, it is even more dull.
The Black Wing Master Mother ordered someone to bring a few sets of costumes, and unfolded them one by one for Long Tiantong to see.
These costumes are simple in appearance but exquisitely made, or pure and elegant, or elegant and graceful, or pink and lovely, each of them is very beautiful.
But Long Tiantong didn't have much interest, because she grew up in the company of deep black, mysterious purple, or dazzling red, and liked cool and ruthless outfits. For clothes like that, it feels like something from another world, and naturally there is no sense of intimacy.
The Blackwing Housemother looked at her daughter's expression, and probably guessed her daughter's thoughts, so she said, "Whether you like it or not, since you are going to perform this task, you must do it as required." And these clothes are also very good-looking, and you can wear them as if you are experiencing a new style. ”
It's really a style that has never been before, just like the place she's going to be before. Long Tiantong imagined the civilization that he had been familiar with since he was a child, of the same race as himself, but had never really seen it. From the few clothes in front of me that I saw for the first time, it seems that I have already seen a glimpse.
"Okay...... "Long Tiantong agreed, "let me try on these clothes first." ”
On the day of departure, Long Tiantong carried a small cyan backpack and came to the meeting point. This small backpack was also prepared for her by the Black Wing Hostess, and it was a backpack that was in line with the habits of the Light Feather Clan.
Walking to the meeting point, Long Tiantong saw that she was not the only one who came to gather, and Youer saw Long Tiantong coming, so she walked over and asked, "Long Tiantong, how are the things prepared?"
"Well, it's all set. However, I still didn't want to wear those white clothes, so I asked my mother to prepare some more blue ones. ”
"Huh. As long as it's up to standard, I don't want to be seen through when we're on the road. ”
"I'll pay attention...... By the way, Yur, why are there so many people at the meeting point?"
"Of course, we're going to the Assassination Light Feather Clan's stronghold, do you think you can go with just two of you? I ordered a total of nineteen clan masters this time, plus the two of us in total, a total of twenty-one. ”
After that, he looked back and saw that the last person had arrived, so he said, "It seems that everyone has arrived." Everyone knows what to do. Let's go. ”
Very short words. There is no need to say more, because except for Long Tiantong, all of them here are masters of the clan over four hundred years old, and they are all skilled in assassinating the Guangyu clan.
Long Tiantong looked at everyone walking together casually with a relaxed look, just like a small group of travelers.
But this is actually an elite team of assassins.
Long Tiantong followed everyone out of the city gate and through the dark underground passage.
The crowd seemed to walk casually, but in fact they walked very fast, and after a few hours, the passage became brighter and brighter, and after turning a corner, the bright hole appeared in front of them.
Long Tiantong still remembers the last time he was bathed in the sun, probably eight years ago.
That time was with a master in the temple who went to the Purple Mist Canyon to learn to pick herbs.
Before that, she had been to the surface of the Purple Mist Canyon many times, sometimes during the day, sometimes at night. It was only then that she experienced first-hand what the so-called "day-night cycle" was all about.
Until now, Long Tiantong still remembers his feelings when he first saw the daytime on the surface, and the so-called "light", the so-called "surface world", is a particularly bright place. Everything around you can be seen clearly, and unlike the rocky underworld, the surface is covered with a variety of flowers, trees, and colorful animals.
However, every time the Blackwing people came to the surface from the ground, they had to wait at the entrance of the cave for a while, and then wait until their eyes adjusted to the light outside.
This time it was the same, everyone stood at the entrance of the cave and chatted.
You'er said to Long Tiantong: "The Guangyu clan has now set up a total of one hundred and thirty-eight strongholds in the entire Purple Mist Canyon region, blocking all the key positions on the surface, you know this. ”
"Hmm. "Long Tiantong knows that the Light Feather Clan has stationed masters throughout the Purple Mist Canyon, and their task is to find and track or kill the Black Wing Clan at any time.
Moreover, these Guangyu people not only guard in the stronghold, they will often form teams to patrol the canyons and mountains, and even occasionally go into the caves to explore, their purpose is to find all the Blackwing people as much as possible, and then kill them all! It is precisely because the Lightfeather Clan has adopted such an aggressive and sweeping strategic policy that the Blackwing Clan is crushed to the ground.
"Some of these strongholds are on top of mountains, some are near the bottom of the valley, and we have to bypass them. Because the people sent to these strongholds by the Guangyu clan are all masters of the clan, and these fortress strongholds are also very strong. Therefore, we have to go directly to the base camp of the Light Feather Clan, the Dawning Sun Mountains, and assassinate those ...... I guess it's a 'middle hand'. "That means those are not strong enough, but they are not ordinary civilians. There may be future masters among them, and it would be best if they could kill such people. ”
"Then how do we get to the Shuyang Mountains?"
"The Shuyang Mountain Range is a huge north-south mountain range, and our Purple Mist Canyon is located on the west side of the southernmost part of the Shuyang Mountain Range. In the past, the Guangyu clan had deployed heavy troops at the junction of the two places, so we would first go north into the Shuguang Forest, then east into the Shuyang Mountains, or first south into the Tianshui Grassland, and then detour north into the Shuyang Mountains. But now...... The Light Feather Clan has already placed forts in all of the levels," Yur shrugged, "so it's no longer about which direction to take, but whether you know the route around the fort. Now I'll take you to the nearest road, and we'll head east, directly into the Shuyang Mountains. ”
"Huh. Then you lead the team, and I will be responsible for learning to recognize the way. ”
"Hahahaha. Okay, everyone's pretty much used to it, let's go. ”
The Purple Mist Canyon is filled with purple mist all year round, which is of great benefit to the Blackwing people who are familiar with the local geography.
The area where the fog is thickest in the Purple Mist Canyon is on the mountainside, so the Guangyu people will hardly set up a stronghold in that area. Long Tiantong and more than 20 of them from the Black Wing Clan walked east along the mountainside under the cover of the purple mist.
However, the scope of the Purple Mist Canyon was also very large, and it was not until half a month later that Long Tiantong and the others finally walked out of the scope of the Purple Mist Canyon.
The terrain began to rise, and Long Tiantong and they also began to climb the mountain.
Along the way, the purple mist gradually dissipated, and rays of sunlight shone in.
"What is this?" Long Tiantong looked at the rays of sunlight around her, and felt very strange, she had the audacity to "hold" one of them, but felt that she had not touched anything. But if you really want to say that you don't feel anything, that's not it, it seems...... Do you want to be warmer?
"It's sunshine. A woman in the team explained to Long Tiantong with a smile.
"Sunshine, haven't we already seen the sun?" Long Tiantong was puzzled.
"Huh. Go any further, and after all the fog, you can see the full sun. ”
Complete...... This was almost incomprehensible to Long Tiantong, but she still suppressed her doubts and continued to walk.
Dozens of minutes later, the group completely passed through the fog area.
Long Tiantong finally clearly felt the dazzling sunlight shining on the top of the mountain with unrestrained warmth, and also shining on her body. The golden and bright light gilds everything with a golden glow.
Long Tiantong raised his head and saw the sun for the first time in his life. The light of the sun shone so brightly that she could barely open her eyes, she subconsciously covered the sun with her hand, and said with some shock: "I see...... This is the sun!"
In the past, because of the fog in the Purple Mist Canyon, she could only see the light but not the sun, and she had only seen the description of the sun in books in the past, but it was another thing to feel it personally. Long Tiantong couldn't help but say a little magically: "It's like a super large fireball." ”
"Hahaha......" the companions laughed at once.
But this sunshine and this world full of sunshine are the worlds that the Blackwings originally had. But now, a young man from the Black Wing Clan, she was so surprised to see the sun. Long Tiantong couldn't laugh at all.
Everyone laughed for a while and continued on their way. Long Tiantong walked silently.
A few days later, the Black Wing Clan and his party finally walked into the Shuyang Mountain Range completely.
"This is the Shuyang Mountains. "You stopped, and so did everyone. "From here on, we will have to change our costumes, and then we will have to keep the costumes of the Light Feather Clan at all times except during the assassination operation. ”
"Hmm. "Understood. Everyone nodded.
So they each found a place to change their clothes.
Long Tiantong changed into a light blue skirt, and she was still a little uncomfortable looking left and right, but when she came back and saw everyone's outfits, she was still embarrassed......
"Ur...... You're so stupid dressed like this......" Long Tiantong couldn't help but complain.
"Ahem, at this time, don't think of my heroic posture when I fought...... Please treat me like an ordinary scholar. "You're embarrassed.
"Poof, hahahahahaha!" everyone burst out laughing.
One woman laughed and said, "But I don't think you look like a scholar." ”
"This ......" Yu Er was speechless, "that is a relatively outdated scholar......
"Hahahaha, Youer, it turns out that you are also very talented in telling jokes~"
"Haha. Youer, who was made fun of by everyone, could only laugh with everyone in embarrassment.
So everyone laughed even more.
It took a while for everyone to stop smiling. Youer immediately said solemnly: "We are going to go north now, and it is estimated that we will have to walk for half a month, and then we will find a station for the cultivators of the Light Feather Clan in the area I have predetermined and launch an attack." ”
Yuer's words were cold and unforgiving, but his current image as a nerd was so far from his usual capable image of commanding battles that instead of feeling nervous, everyone burst into laughter again.
After a while, everyone finally had enough laughter, and then they hit the road again.
After experiencing the initial surprise, Long Tiantong quickly adjusted herself, but Rao was so, during this half-month journey, she was still impressed by the majestic and precipitous, or colorful and magnificent, or beautiful and fresh natural landscapes of the Shuyang Mountains.
Long Tiantong suddenly remembered what Glass Mark once said to her, "The world is very wide......
Unconsciously, Long Tiantong's heart seemed to be planted with an unknown mood, she wanted to go to the world to see, to see what kind of things are in this vast world?
But, of course, that's for the future.
Right now, she's not here to travel.
- The place where the Ghost was scheduled to reach has finally arrived.
"I'm familiar with this place, I've carried out sixty-three assassinations here in the past. "Your said.
Long Tiantong was slightly taken aback. She knew that the battles between the Black Wing Clan and the Light Feather Clan were very frequent, but she was still slightly touched to hear this sentence when she came here in person.
"After dark, we change into our usual operational attire. Then the goal is set ...... Qianxia Village to the east. This village is not an ordinary village, it is a place for the natural magic cultivators of the Guangyu clan to study and study. After all, the Guangyu clan has limited masters, and it is impossible to cover everything, and a village like this happens to be the place with the fewest masters and the weakest defense among the Guangyu clan. Or to put it another way, in fact, they may also be deliberate, because most of the people in this kind of village are cultivators, and they also want to screen out the weak and leave the elite through the battle with us. But no matter what, our goal is to raid the village and kill as many cultivators as possible!"
Long Tiantong and everyone looked solemn, she knew that this battle was not trivial.
The feud between the Light Feather Clan and the Black Wing Clan has continued to Long Tiantong's hands. Now Long Tiantong is standing on the enemy's territory, and the target of the attack is an entire village of the enemy, and the opponent is the Guangyu people who have the same wisdom and talent as them.
