Chapter 10: Encountering the Enemy
Although there is a bonfire, it does not mean that the two of them can sit back and relax and go to sleep, although the bonfire can deter some beasts, but it may also attract some beasts and even fierce beasts, so someone must keep vigil and be vigilant at all times.
The two hastily ate some dry food, and Lin Bin asked Canghu to rest, and he came to take charge of the vigil. Although the day was hard, Lin Bin only needed to sit cross-legged for a while to recover his energy. Moreover, in the mountains and forests, the light of the bonfire is difficult to reach far, and the sharp gaze is not as easy to detect the enemy's traces as his divine sense.
The tiger did not hesitate, and got into the animal skin tent, and soon his breathing became long and steady. Lin Bin sat by the bonfire and made sure that Canghu had fallen asleep, so he stood up, walked around the camp, and laid out a few small means of warning, and then returned to the campfire and sat down, closing his eyes.
Because Canghu was on the side, and he was in a dangerous place, Lin Bin didn't dare to practice, he could only participate in the Dao Enlightenment, although his cultivation realm was not high, but the foundation laid by the Qingxu Daoist was extremely solid, and he was involved in all aspects. Although the heaven and earth are full of spiritual energy now, most of the spiritual power he cultivates every day is taken away by Wenxinhuang, and it is difficult to improve the amount, so he can only play with the limited spiritual power as much as possible. For a period of time, he has been sorting out the talismans and Taoism in his memory, and finding out the most suitable for him.
In the mountains and forests after nightfall, the temperature drops quickly, but for Lin Bin, who has long been cold and heat, it is not a problem. He pulled out one of the feather arrows in the quiver, condensed the spirit into a needle, and carefully carved the talisman on the shaft of the arrow, this world is full of aura, and the wood used to make the shaft of the arrow can be said to contain the aura far beyond the earth] ball, although it can't burn any high-level talismans, but some small talismans, but it is not a problem at all.
This time he came to scout the jackals, it can be said that Lin Bin has been the riskiest adventure since he arrived in this world, although he has confidence in himself, but confidence does not mean arrogance, it does not mean that he despises opponents, especially orcs who are extremely strange creatures. On the earth, he knew that there were demons, and that there were werewolves and leopards in the west, but orcs did not exist in the present. The information that the Canghu brothers can provide is also quite limited, and if they don't try to be fully prepared, they will die. There are countless precedents in which practitioners have stumbled and lost their bodies because of their carelessness.
"......Huh" Lin Bin let out a sigh of relief, dispersed the spiritual energy needle in his hand, and looked at the work in his hand with satisfaction, although he almost failed several times during the period, but he still succeeded in completing it after all, and he was able to perceive that his spiritual control over the body had improved its fineness.
Lin Bin looked at the sky, it was already past the middle of the sky, and in the east of the sky, half a bright moon was revealed. This world not only has two suns of different sizes, but also seven moons of different sizes and colors, so it is not difficult to see the magnificent scene of the starry sky in February and March.
Lin Bin stood up and circled around the camp again, and when his gaze fell to the southeast, Lin Bin suddenly noticed that there seemed to be a fire flickering there, and immediately woke up.
He turned around and woke up Canghu, Canghu looked solemn for a moment, and then the two returned to the bonfire, Canghu looked at the starry sky, extinguished the bonfire and said: "Let's wait until dawn, quietly touch their camp to see who the other party is!"
"If it's a jackal, Second Brother Cang, you immediately rush back, inform Third Brother Cang that they and the village are ready, and I will try my best to delay them here. Lin Bin said in a deep voice.
Canghu shook his head and said, "I'm more familiar with this place than you, you go back and inform them, I'll delay them." "If no one breaks the queen, it is likely that they will go out of the mountains and forests on their front feet, and the gnolls on their back feet will chase after them, and they will not give the wolves time to prepare at all.
Lin Bin rubbed the double-curved bow on his shoulder, and said in a deep voice: "Second Brother Cang, I am not as familiar with you here, but I am confident that I can save my life, do you have it? ”
Canghu opened his mouth, didn't say anything for a long time, and sighed: "I didn't!" Even if there was only a small team of a dozen people, he was not sure that he could save his life while delaying their steps.
"That's right, believe me, I didn't expect to die at such a young age. Lin Bin patted him on the shoulder and smiled, "Maybe it's not a gnoll yet." ”
"Alas!" the tiger sighed. He didn't think that in this season, there would be any race other than orcs in the depths of Asan. Even if it's not a gnoll, the other orcs are a big problem.
The two of them prepared silently, ate some dry food, threw away all the things that were not necessary for the battle, wrapped them in animal skin tents and buried them in the ground, and went into battle lightly.
Canghu also handed over his quiver to Lin Bin, leaving only six feather arrows, Lin Bin also took it unceremoniously, one more feather arrow, which means that it is possible to harvest one more enemy's life, so that he has a better chance of surviving. Then, silently, the two men reached each other's camp.
Before dawn came, the two had already touched a hillside about a thousand paces away from each other, if it was a jackal, maybe Cadigo would accompany him, even in the mountains and forests, even in the dark night, the combat power was even more terrifying than in the plains. Moreover, it has a keen sense of smell and hearing, and if it approaches recklessly, not only can it not find out the details of the other party, but it may alarm the other party in advance.
From the hillside, the two looked down, Canghu's face changed greatly, the other party's camp was set up on a flat ground in the mountains, there were seven large and small bonfires, by the light of the fire, you can see that there are no less than twenty tattered tent-like things in the camp, and there are still a lot of staggered around the bonfire.
Canghu pulled Lin Bin with his hand, squatted down, lowered his voice and said eagerly: "It's a jackal, it looks like there may be more than fifty or sixty people, too many." Let's hurry up and go together. In his opinion, there are so many jackals, even if Lin Bin stays, it won't be long to delay. Unless you resist the danger and have enough manpower, you don't have the slightest chance of winning.
