Chapter 20: Turmoil in the camp
"Is that all right?" asked Moe Moe, who was already in a semi-comatose state.
The two of them fled all the way, constantly breaking into the deeper part of the eastern forest, because many demonic beasts were migrating to the forest on the outskirts of Qingcheng these days, Zuo Congrong and the two did not have too many twists and turns along the way, and they escaped from the forest of the demonic beast riot and entered the area that could not be set foot except for the strong.
"Alright, here it is. Zuo Congrong wiped the beads of sweat that had oozed from his forehead, put Mengmeng on the ground, and said with a breath.
"Where is this? Will you meet the bad guys?" Meng Meng, who was fed up with the fatigue of running around and the high-speed inertial collision, asked with palpitations.
"It doesn't matter, it's impossible for many people to come to this kind of place, even in normal times. I really didn't expect that the eastern forest had become a paradise for demonic beasts, and there would be outlaws who would come to intercept and kill me for my head bounty. Zuo Congrong still said in disbelief.
"It's impossible for many people to come in normal times, where are we now?" Mengmeng, who was still lazily resting, suddenly caught the key words in Zuo Congrong's words and asked in surprise.
"I don't know, the five-stage acceleration has been running for so long, considering that there are still injuries in the body, how can it be an hour to look at the tired Cheng dΓΉ, fortunately, there are observations along the way to the compass to correct the direction, otherwise I don't know where to run, but even so, the specific location, you have to calculate it to know the general situation. But in any case, this should be the depths of the forest that the strong don't often come to. Zuo Congrong explained.
"In the depths of the deep forest that even the strong don't often come to, Master, didn't you take me to die, did you?" Meng Meng said in horror.
"It doesn't matter, it's safer here than outside the forest. Zuo Congrong replied indifferently.
"Hey, don't think that I became an orphan at the age of five and was easy to deceive, anyway, I also went to study in the Iron and Blood Regiment for a year, what is the situation in this Warcraft Forest, I still have a general understanding, the more I go into the forest. The higher the average level of the Warcraft, according to what you mean, there are probably the lowest level of Warcraft here above the seventh order, if this happens, what should I do?" Meng Meng said with a headache.
"Don't worry about this, there are no seventh-order demonic beasts here, only three ninth-order demonic beasts are here. Zuo Congrong glanced back and forth for a week, and said lightly.
"What?, the three-headed ninth-order demonic beasts, if they come over, can you stabilize the situation?" Meng Meng asked with a dead gray face. Zuo Congrong had a precedent of dividing a sphere of influence for himself in the Warcraft Forest before, but this time Meng Meng did not question Zuo Congrong's words.
"Of course I can't hold it back. What do you think. The ninth-order demonic beasts are almost comparable to the ancient species, and I can't beat the three powerhouses at that time, how can I take care of these heads. Zuo Congrong replied as a matter of course.
"Then why did you come here, no matter what, while I still have breath, let's run out, the body that has grown for more than ten years, how can I feed the monster without knowing it. Meng Meng said in fear.
"Hey the monsters, you can think of them, do you think the monsters are all fierce beasts that only know brutal and bloodthirsty?" Zuo Congrong was stunned. Asked a little amusedly.
"Isn't it?"
"Naturally not, the IQ of the demonic beasts above the seventh order is almost the same as that of humans, and most of the high-level demonic beasts are more than five meters in size. What's more, the body size will be more than 20 meters, like you, which is not even 30 kilograms, and it is not enough to even stuff people's teeth. Besides, high-level Warcraft also have high requirements for food. You haven't entered a body that has been tempered by ability, and the demonic beast will not have an appetite. Zuo Congrong said.
"It's the same as it really is, and who knows if there will be exceptions. Even if you're right. According to what you say, aren't you an excellent ration for ninth-order demonic beasts, and if you are eaten, what should I do alone?" Meng Meng questioned shrewdly.
"Don't worry, this kind of place is much safer than the outside of the forest, guarded by three monsters, and no one or monster is stupid enough to come here to trouble us. Zuo Congrong said without paying attention to it.
"We should be more worried about these three monsters, right?" Meng Meng said with a chill.
"Don't worry, the Demon Beast and the human are actually similar, and the spirit is also very high, it is impossible to join forces to attack us, and besides, our current position is still some distance from the three-headed Demon Beast's sphere of influence, they should not deliberately go to this kind of neutral zone to hunt. Zuo Congrong analyzed.
"Probably not? What if it does?"
"What ifs, even if you come, what if you come, can't your master even take care of a ninth-order demonic beast, you can't believe it. Zuo Congrong reprimanded Meng Meng on the top of his head.
"Who knows, didn't you also say that you were seriously injured, who knows if you can do it. Meng Meng hugged her head and still muttered dissatisfied.
"You have a heart, you remember this kind of trivial matter so clearly, don't worry, what do you think I chose here for, if we can't beat it, we will run to the territory of the other two ends, so that the three demonic beasts will have scruples and dare not act rashly." Zuo Congrong said.
"How do I feel Master, you are playing with fire......" Meng Meng, who originally thought that Zuo Congrong had some good way, even had the heart to die after hearing this plan.
"Hehe, it's really playing with fire, but it's at least a gamble than sending you to death on the outskirts of the forest. Don't worry too much, we won't be here for too long. Zuo Congrong looked at Mengmeng, who was already frightened at the moment, laughed, and said with relief.
"It won't be too long, how long, I'm afraid that before we can move elsewhere, the three demonic beasts will join forces to destroy us. Obviously, because the situation at the moment was too dangerous, Zuo Congrong's comfort had no effect at all, and Meng Meng still asked in a depressed spirit.
"It's hard to say, maybe more than a month. Zuo Congrong also said with some uncertainty.
"About a month? Why stay so long, wouldn't it be good to run away? Meng Meng exclaimed.
"I'm afraid...... No!" Zuo Congrong thought about it for a moment and replied.
"Why not, why do you want to stay for more than a month?" Meng Meng asked reluctantly.
"Actually, it would have been fine in a week......"
"Then it's not good to stay for a week. Without waiting for Zuo Congrong to finish speaking, Meng Meng immediately couldn't wait to interject.
"Alas, I also think, who told us that we were unlucky to come across this kind of thing. Originally, my injuries were enough to heal in a week, but did I have a fight with those three people before? After that, I ran for an hour with your oil bottle, even if I am an immortal, this injury has to be aggravated a lot, not to mention that I am still just a mortal, I have already burned high incense before I die, and I am not satisfied with it after a month of cultivation. Zuo Congrong said helplessly.
"In this case, can't we cultivate in a different place?" Meng Meng said.
"No, no, it's much more dangerous elsewhere. Zuo Congrong refused again.
"Why, didn't we meet anything along the way? Meng Meng said suspiciously.
"If you haven't encountered it, it doesn't mean that there are no magical beasts, so let's not talk about the periphery of the forest. The current Warcraft turmoil there will not subside in the near future, and there are still some outlaw powerhouses staring at the head of my neck, and the situation is not far worse than here. As for other places, I have lived in the forest for more than ten years, and this intuition is still there, you naturally don't feel anything in my arms, and along the way, there are three or four people who were scared away by me with high-intensity fluctuating breath. At this frequency, it's not just the outer part of the eastern forest, but also the interior. Now the high-level demonic beasts have also increased a lot, and if you escape from here, you will only encounter more demonic beasts. Although I can also handle the ninth-order demonic beast alone, this is the case. High-frequency combat is also necessary, and the injuries on the body will probably not recover after hiding in the forest for a long time. If you are unfortunate enough to encounter two magical beasts, the two of us will also explain here. Zuo Congrong patiently explained.
"Let's just hide. "Meng Meng is out of the way.
"Hide...... I want to do it too!" Zuo Congrong sighed.
"yes, hide. Let's find a more remote place, store more food, and hide for more than a month before coming out. Meng Meng immediately said happily.
"It's a pity. Neither will this one. Are you taking me for a fool, if there is any other way, I still need to gamble my luck here? You should honestly hide here and practice the exercises, don't think of other ghost ideas, there can't be any better place and method than this. Zuo Congrong said.
"Why, there has to be a reason for not doing it, right?" Meng Meng asked reluctantly.
"Let me ask you, what do monsters rely on to find prey?"
"Smell and sight, of course. β
"That's true, but it's only half right, in addition to sight and smell, there are also keen observation and reconnaissance ability fluctuations. You haven't even reached the level of the ability person, and the ability fluctuations can't be hidden, this is simply telling the monster the position of the prey, do you think you can hide just by hiding? Zuo Congrong said.
"Didn't you say that I have too little flesh, and my body has not been tempered by ability, so Warcraft won't be interested?"
"I'm talking about ninth-order demonic beasts, seventh-order demonic beasts, who can say for sure, if you are hungry, there is such a conspicuous prey, do you think they will let you go. Zuo Congrong retorted.
"I remember that you have a way to hide the fluctuating aura, right?" Although Zuo Congrong didn't deliberately tell him, and he didn't mention it later, Bing Xue's smart Meng Meng still saw through Zuo Congrong's ability and asked.
"Yes, there is, but the premise is not to move, if you practice the exercises, it is impossible to avoid the escape of ability. β
β...... Well, I put up with it. Let's get out of here now, and then you can get a formation that can block the fluctuating aura, and I'll wait until your injuries heal before cultivating?" Meng Meng said as if she had made up her mind after thinking for a long time.
"I'm sorry, I can't promise you this, although I am willing to be your master, it doesn't mean that I will always accompany you to teach you martial arts and exercises. Even if you don't know how long I'll be with you, this time will definitely not be too long, if you have some time, you should hurry up and cultivate, with your qualifications, more than a month is enough time for you to reach the minimum limit of a martial artist from the incapable. Zuo Congrong refused again.
β...... Then it doesn't matter if I slow down, I can ensure my own safety, if even my life is gone, what is the use of cultivation. β
"If you are verbose, be careful that I leave you here, I'm going to sleep, if you are willing to cultivate, you can cultivate the swearing, Xiuhui dares to boil and stab the simmer for Xiuhui!
β......β
β‘β‘β‘
After Zuo Congrong and Mengmeng were forced into the depths of the forest, Zuo Congwen and Wang Yuntao, who had already set off from the imperial capital to Qingcheng, finally arrived at their destination at this moment. Of course, Zuo Congwen, who is already a lot late, even if he has Zuo Congrong's phone number, it is impossible to contact him. Due to Qingcheng's misjudgment of the bounty order and the adventurers driven by the bounty, the next meeting between the two of them was postponed for half a year.
"How. Has Zuo Congrong's kid attacked Qingcheng again?" After arriving in Qingcheng, Zuo Congwen did not go to rest according to the Lu family's arrangement, but asked straight to the point after the politeness.
"Why is Zuo Shuai so anxious, this matter can be discussed later, Zuo Shuai is tired, go to rest and rest first, is there anything to discuss after recuperating tomorrow. Lu Teng said politely.
"It doesn't have to be, people from the military. This is nothing to do, but on Zuo Congrong's side, I want to know more about him. The two of us haven't seen each other for more than half a year, but I didn't expect this meeting to be under such circumstances. Zuo Congwen rejected Lu Teng's kindness. explained.
"In that case, then please go to the council hall to stay for a while, and I will immediately send someone to inform the iron-blooded master, here, please!" Lu Teng said politely.
......
"Captain. A few days ago, Zuo Congrong invaded the Lu family, I already know a rough idea, but the information brought by Qingcheng is only the situation in the vestibule of Qingcheng. What happened after entering the Divine Domain, can you please tell the group leader? After all the relevant personnel arrived, Zuo Congwen asked Wang Yunkai.
"That's right, at that time, after receiving Lin Yu's summons, I quickly rushed to Lu's house, because the situation was critical, so I didn't confirm the actual situation with Lin Yu at that time, and after arriving, I found that the organization that came to invade actually had a god man in charge. Let me ask, if it was Zuo Shuai at that time, what would Zuo Shuai do?" Wang Yunkai asked.
"This assumption can't be true, right? If a god man attacks the Lu family, why bother to manifest the Divine Domain, is it not to protect the Lu family?" Zuo Congwen retorted calmly.
"It's worthy of Lord Zuo Shuai, who figured out the key so quickly. However, under the circumstances at that time, I didn't think much about it, but I felt that the strength of this godman was still a lot worse than the other gods in the camp, so my first thought at that time was to intercept and kill this rebel who came to attack the Lu family. Wang Yun said.
"The result?"
"As a result, hehe, I have to say that Zuo Shuai, a brother, is very capable, and he has such terrifying power at a young age. With the body of a magician, he took a hard slap from me with almost all his strength, and actually dragged his seriously injured body to release a forbidden spell magic and escaped. After coming out, I listened to Ah Teng's explanation, and realized that I had made a mistake in my busy schedule and found the wrong person. However, although this Zuo Congrong had nothing to do with that organization, he was always the one who invaded the Lu family, and it happened that the eastern forest was not very stable, so he sent Yuntao to the imperial capital and reported it together. Wang Yunkai explained.
"It's only that simple? With all due respect, with my intelligence, it is said that after the invasion of the Lu family, Qingcheng has already posted a reward notice for Zuo Congrong, I don't know what the head of the regiment means?" Zuo Congwen asked.
"Hehe, I'm afraid this is Zuo Shuai's misunderstanding, Zuo Congrong was seriously injured by Yunkai, so he didn't escape from Qingcheng. No matter how to say that Zuo Congrong is also a god-level figure, even if he is seriously injured, he should not be underestimated after all, in order to prevent him from coming to the Lu family manor again, so he posted a reward list, first, to confirm his position, so as not to let the Lu family fall into crisis again, and secondly, when Zuo Shuai comes, it is better to go to pass the word, after all, only the parties are present, and this misunderstanding is easier to explain. Lu Teng took over the conversation and explained to Zuo Congwen.
"I see, then may I ask, Zuo Congrong's current whereabouts, can the Lu clan master still know?"
"I'm very sorry, maybe because we didn't think it through, Zuo Congrong escaped from Qingcheng after knowing that he was rewarded.
Went to the Eastern Forest. Zuo Shuai also knows that this eastern forest, because the situation is a little special recently, has been banned by us, and the strength of the Lu family and the iron blood, there are only more than 30 strong people, and they also have to take on the safety and defense work of the iron blood and the Lu family, and the people are a little lacking. Zuo Congrong's whereabouts were not found. However, the day before yesterday, an adventurer came to send some clues, and it is said that Zuo Congrong seems to have rushed to the depths of the forest, and judging from the current situation in the eastern forest, it is difficult to carry out a search operation. Lu Teng said apologetically.
"This is trouble! Dare to ask if the adventurer who sent the information is still in the house? I don't know how many days Zuo Congrong has been going to the depths of the forest. Zuo Congwen frowned and pondered for a moment before asking again.
"It was two days ago. β
"Two days ago? It's okay, it's not too long. I wonder if the regimental leader is ready for the riots in the east, and can he go to the eastern forest now?"
"The preparations are all done, but why is Zuo Shuai so eager to find Zuo Congrong, no matter how he says it, he has just arrived in Qingcheng, so why not rest for a day. Re-enter the Eastern Forest. Wang Yunkai asked.
"Maybe the head of the regiment also knows that the emperor sent me here, in addition to Zuo Congrong's matter, there is also the task of assisting Qingcheng to solve the riots in the eastern forest. At present, Cloud City is also in turmoil, and it is better to solve the problem here as soon as possible. β
"In that case, let's rest for a few days before we do it. Zuo Shuai didn't know that on the day Zuo Congrong went to the depths of the forest, many demonic beasts on the periphery suddenly went berserk. Although there was no sign of an invasion of Qingcheng, the outside of the forest was now in turmoil. According to the current situation, I am afraid that even if the strong go, they will not be able to get out safely. Now I have to wait for a few days on the eastern forest side. If you make another plan, as for Zuo Congrong's side, I'm afraid we can only wait until we solve the turmoil in the eastern forest, and then take the opportunity to find it. Lu Teng said.
β......γ Well, wait three more days! During this time, ask the head of the group to select two brothers who are very capable, and after three days. No matter what happens, I'm going to go into the forest.
As for the task of solving the people of the Eastern Forest, please make another plan after I come out of the forest. Zuo Congwen thought for a long time and said.
"Yes, yes, but I don't understand it a little, although Zuo Shuai is worried about Zuo Congrong, I can understand it, but Zuo Congrong is also a god-level powerhouse, and entering the depths of the forest shouldn't be a worrying thing. Why don't you stop by when the crisis in the eastern forest is resolved, and you have to rush to this time?" asked Lu Teng, somewhat incomprehensibly.
"The Lord of the Lu Clan doesn't know, my brother, in addition to being highly capable, is also an expert in Warcraft. He understands the language of Warcraft, and he also understands the habits of Warcraft very well, if he is there, solving the riots in the eastern forest can be said to be twice the result with half the effort. I guess the Warcraft riot two days ago may have something to do with him. Otherwise, there is no need to rush to find him. β
"I see! Since it has been negotiated, Zuo Shuai is tired of traveling, please take a short rest, and in the evening, I will wait for Zuo Shuai to pick up the wind and wash the dust. Lu Teng said politely.
"The Lord of the Lu Clan is polite, since this is the case, I will retire first!Oh, by the way, this Eastern Forest Riot has been going on for some time, I wonder if the Lord of the Lu Clan and the head of the regiment have investigated any clues and found what reason?"
"I'm ashamed to say that my Iron Blood Regiment is shallow, and I still haven't made any gains, so why the Eastern Forest is like this is still a mystery to us. Wang Yunkai said sadly.
"Didn't investigate? Then I'll quit. After Zuo Congwen exclaimed, he quickly regained his composure and said goodbye again. Although Wang Yunkai said modestly, but for the Iron Blood Group, Zuo Congwen really didn't dare to underestimate it, a force that has been based in the camp for more than 3,000 years, which one is not a deep foundation and a lot of strong people, even if such a force can't investigate the reason, I really don't know how many conspiracies are bred inside.
"Haicheng in the East, Cloud City in the South, and now even Qingcheng in the interior have suffered the same situation, is there any connection between this? It is impossible to find out the reason, so we can only passively defend, in less than a year, the calm camp has actually caused so much trouble, natural and man-made disasters, no matter which aspect, it is enough to make the camp high-level cause shock. It seems that this Asian continent, which has been quiet for thousands of years, is about to have a storm, right?" Zuo Congwen concealed the shock in his heart, and thought secretly in his heart as he turned his head and walked away. (To be continued......)
