There is indeed a moon in this world, and there is more than one, one of the two moons appears in the night sky in the north, and the other in the south. The moon in the north glows faintly blue, echoing the yellow and orange of the moon in the south. The light of the two bright moons makes the mountains and forests in the night not so eerie, but it is not easy to see the traces left by the goblins.

But fortunately, there is Xiao Chen, who can see at night and can see the footprints on the ground as clearly as daytime, which has become the most important support for this group.

Walking to a fork in the road, Xiao Chen stopped and pointed to the shadow of a tree, Zhang Sicheng turned on the flashlight and looked at it carefully for a while, then used a branch to pull the soil on this side, pointed to the road to the right and said, "Xiao Xiao is really a god, go this way." ”

Several people climbed over a hillside, and they all stopped to look down, and in the valley in front of them, there was a firelight, which reflected the surrounding mountains and forests red.

"Be vigilant and hidden. It could be the goblin camp over there. I don't know if there will be their secret sentinels and traps in the woods, so everyone must observe the surroundings and follow the path I have walked. Xiao Chen whispered, leading everyone closer to the camp. On the way down the mountain, they walked much slower than before, and everyone held their breath and looked around very nervously, and their steps were much lighter.

Click, after the break, Shi Hao stepped on a dead branch erected by a stone, and the sound was loud and crisp, which seemed very abrupt in the woods in the middle of the night, he himself was startled, his foot stumbled on a stone and rushed forward, hitting the back of Ye Zi in front of him, and Ye Zi, who was so frightened that his nerves were tense, screamed "ah". Fortunately, Xiao Chen, who was in front of him, was quick-eyed, and immediately reached out to cover Ye Zi's mouth and cut off the scream. But just like that, as soon as they fell, they covered, and the three of them fell to the ground like a rolling gourd.

Ye Zi was ashamed and annoyed, first gave Shi Hao, whose hand was still on her shoulder, an elbow blow, making the other party cover his stomach and turn into a cooked shrimp, and then knocked off Xiao Chen's hand pressed on her nose. She got up angrily, and was about to get angry, when she heard Zhang Sicheng lower her voice and shouted again: "Hide quickly, you are going to be discovered!"

For a while, several people were a little panicked, and they made a lot of noise, and then they each fell behind the roots of the trees in the grass, and everyone waited for a while, and finally found that it was all a false alarm.

"It's all your fault for scaring me from behind!"

"You can't scream too!"

"And you gagged me with your muddy hand!"

Teacher Zhang also sent out indiscriminate warning signals. ”

"You guys really don't know the seriousness, it's so careless. ”

Shi Hao and Ye Zi stared wide-eyed, muffled their voices in the woods, and complained to each other. Zhang Siwei wanted to persuade two sentences, but he didn't expect it to turn into a scuffle in the end.

"Let's stop in moderation!" Xiao Chen said angrily, he really couldn't listen to it anymore, pointed to a few people and said: "You are a soldier of the army, you are a martial arts master, you are a team leader and a teacher, everyone wants to save people, is it like this?

The three of them were all a little startled by Xiao Chen's deep but firm voice, and they all fell silent at once. Xiao Chen's voice was not loud, but it was very imposing, and it seemed to send a kind of pressure directly into their minds.

Amazing.

Ye Zi stared at Xiao Chen, but he didn't expect that Xiao Chen usually looked like he was smiling, but when he was suddenly serious, he had such a might. Ye Zi was often trained by his grandfather when he was a child, and his grandfather was a master of the inner family, and he used some internal strength skills to teach him, which could often be impressive. And Xiao Chen's words are still excessive.

"Keep going!" Xiao Chen waved his hand and walked in front again. In fact, Xiao Chen was also surprised in his heart at this time, just because of the fire in his heart, he unconsciously used his spiritual power when he stopped them, which seemed to have some kind of disturbance, and then shocked the consciousness of several other people, making them all have a short trance. It's like the Buddhist martial arts "lion's roar" in martial arts novels.

Isn't that magic?

Xiao Chen and the others continued to move forward, and finally stopped at a high place on a hillside about two hundred meters away from the goblin camp. From here, they could see the camp clearly, Xiao Chen lay behind a stone, and carefully observed the camp of the goblins.

If I had to describe this camp once in one word, it would be "dirty." The camp is large, but the ground has not been carefully cleared, and a lot of grass and tree stumps are enclosed in the middle of the camp. The walls are made of sticks of varying thicknesses that are skewed diagonally, the tips of which are cut into sharp corners of different heights, with many large and small gaps in between. To the south of the wall was a gate, and the skulls of several unknown beasts were hung on the top of the gate, and some torches were messily inserted on both sides of the gate, and the gate had no door panels, and some miscellaneous items were piled up in the doorway, even if the door to the camp was closed.

The houses in the camp were also made of branches, covered with dirty leaves and thatch. The house was so short that no one could enter, and even the goblins, who were only half a man tall, could only bend over to enter and exit. The ground between the barracks was littered with ponds and mud ponds. The front and back of the house were littered with animal skeletons, minced meat, excrement, and all kinds of rubbish, and whenever the wind blew through the camp and up the mountain, a distinct stench would blow in the face.

But the most attractive thing at this time is the five pillars erected in the largest open space at the entrance of the camp, the five pillars are arranged in a pentagonal shape at equal distances, and there is a stone platform in the middle of the columns, the stone platform and the pillar are empty, and there are several more gorgeously dressed goblins who use sticks as pens to draw something between the pillars and the platform.

"It's disgusting. Ye Zi covered his nose and squatted beside Xiao Chen, "These goblins must have evolved from pigs." ”

"Their camp is a mess, but if we were to set up camp in the woods, we might not be as good as them. This is an intelligent race, and we need to take them seriously as enemies. Xiao Chen didn't pinch his nose, he was dizzy, and he was thinking about the IQ of the goblins.

Shi Hao took out a binocular, scanned the camp back and forth, and after a while frowned and said, "There are too many broken houses, and we can't see our people!" But those goblin warriors patrolling back and forth are very similar to those who attacked us, and I think this tribe did it. ”

"What then? In case someone is hidden by them, we can't do anything about it if we stay here to watch. Ye Zi looked at Xiao Chen and Zhang Sicheng, hoping that they would have any good ideas.

"I think they're preparing for some big moves, and if you look at these pillars and stone platforms, it's clear that they're the venues and props needed for some kind of ritual. Shi Hao also said that our people were captured alive, and then I think of some sacrificial customs of primitive peoples......"

"You mean the living sacrifice?" Zhang Sicheng said urgently.

Xiao Chen nodded: "Very likely." ”

"Are you saying that Professor Lin and a few of them will be killed on the pillar? Otherwise, what if they make a move and we don't have time to take action?" Ye Zi grabbed the spear and wanted to run down.

Xiao Chen grabbed her, "Can you let me finish, we have to see the situation clearly first, confirm that the person is here, if you don't see the person, you go and make a fool of yourself, let's take the risk in vain, Professor Lin and they will be in trouble if they are hurt or taken away." What we have to think about now is how we can rescue them if they are brought out and tied to a pillar. ”

"Yes, the situation is unknown, there are too many enemies, we can't be so reckless. Zhang Sicheng agreed.

Xiao Chen looked at Zhang Sicheng and said, "Teacher Zhang, you are the captain, the situation is very complicated now, you need to take the lead in making decisions and come up with a rescue plan, what do you think we should do?"

Zhang Sicheng thought for a while with a bitter face and said: "Xiao Xiao, I'm not this material, if you want me to shoot arrows and fight, I will never take a step back, but this kind of combat arrangement is really not what I am good at." I thought, kill it, we are too small, set fire to create chaos, we have no materials, long-range sniping, we can't kill a few people. Sneaking in, we're too different from the goblins. If you have any ideas, just say it. We all listened. ”

"Good. Xiao Chen knew that now was not the time to be modest, he glanced at the gun in Shi Hao's hand and asked him, "Are you sure that you can accurately hit the goblins in the square below here?"

Shi Hao estimated the distance, nodded, and said, "But there are only six bullets, and then you can only fight hard with a bayonet." ”

Xiao Chen nodded, and asked Zhang Sicheng again, "Can your bow shoot from outside the camp gate to the house behind the camp." ”

Zhang Sicheng thought for a while and said: "I estimate that the distance from the door to the camp is about two hundred meters in a straight line, and the projectile can be reached, but the accuracy and power are definitely gone." If I want to hit a certain house, I have to be about 100 meters to be sure. ”

Xiao Chen nodded again, and then looked at Ye Zi very seriously, his eyes were very deep, his gaze was very direct, and Ye Zi began to be a little embarrassed before he spoke: "You are the only girl, I shouldn't ask you such a question, and I shouldn't put pressure on you." But we're in a critical situation, and you're the best in melee combat here. So, I must ask you: Do you have the determination to rush in through the main gate and save people directly when the camp is in chaos?"

Ye Zi noticed that Xiao Chen was asking about determination, not certainty, she knew that this was because rushing into such a camp alone was a matter of life and death, and even the best person could not say anything about winning and getting in and out safely. However, she was ignited by Xiao Chen's words. An impulse erupted from his heart, and the hand holding the gun trembled slightly, not afraid, but the excitement of seeking battle, and the words rushed straight out: "Yes!"

Xiao Chen smiled, this smile made people feel reassured, and he said calmly, "Okay! Teacher Zhang and I will go in with you." Now, I think we have a plan. ”
