Looking at the swept tree trunks, the soldier swooped forward and fell to the ground - the jungle ground was full of rotten branches and trunks, and there was a faint smell of decay in his nose, because it had just rained here a few days ago, and there was still some mud on the ground, and the soldier was not in the mood to pay attention to this, and when he lay on the ground and looked back at the tree trunks passing by, he suddenly frowned, although he could not see clearly in the night, but he still saw a black shadow standing on the trunk of the tree swinging back and forth.
Is it a man or a ghost? The soldier had a trace of doubt in his heart, until he heard the exclamation and wailing of the soldier not far away, and the soldier suddenly came to his senses, and knew that there was probably a person on the trunk of the tree!
Someone surrounded him with torches, and then the fire, and the soldier who was lying on the ground finally saw what he wanted to seeβthe upper half of the man's body was clinging to a layer of leaves and branches, and if it weren't for the fact that there was no cover on the man's legs, the soldier would have thought he had seen a monster.
Looking at the man standing on the trunk of the tree, the soldier was shocked for a moment. The man stood in the middle of the tree trunk, holding a curved bow in his hand, carrying two quivers on his back left and right, standing on the trunk of the tree swaying from side to side, but walking on the ground, watching a soldier pick up a torch, the long arrow in his hand kept shooting, almost every arrow would have a soldier fall, even if the jungle became dark, there were soldiers who kept snorting with arrows, first fluted for a moment, and after the soldier who sensed that something was wrong came to his senses, he lowered his head and slowly crawled over the grass in front of him.
He crawled nearly thirty feet like this, and only after making sure that the screams behind him had stopped, the soldier dared to stop, and he slowly squatted up in the half-man-high grass, wanting to see the situation over there, and when he looked through the grass and saw that no one was coming from him, the soldier couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but when the soldier turned around and was about to leave here, he couldn't help but exclaim in fright - a vague figure appeared in front of him.
Who was this man? When did he come here? Why didn't he hear a sound? These questions flashed through the soldier's mind because of the fright, and when he came to his senses from the shock, he did not have time to stand up when he was crouching on the ground, so he supported himself with his hands and kicked the ground with his feet and retreated, until he heard a word and stopped.
"If you don't want to die, don't run again. The man was vaguely seen raising his bow and arrows, and the soldier's frightened hands fell to the ground like a puddle of mud.
"Don't kill me, don't kill me, I still have a seventy-year-old lady at home, and two children below......" Seeing the man walking towards him, the soldier knelt on the ground in fright and kowtowed.
"I've asked you a few times, and you always answer. Looking at the soldier kowtowing like garlic, Dumb frowned, looked up at the north, Dumb's body slowly squatted in front of the soldier, looking at the soldier with horror in his eyes, Dumb thought about it and began to ask the information he wanted, "Did you come in three groups of people at the same time today?"
"Yes, we are all from the Kunzi Battalion. Hearing Dumb's question, the soldier hurriedly answered.
"How many of you came?"
"There were about 1,500 people in all. β
"How can there be so many?" Dumb frowned when he heard the soldier's words, if they were here to avenge the dead soldiers, but it was too trivial to deal with some villagers with so many people.
"In addition to the army defending Ningguo, we brought out the most elite troops in this attack on Ji Guo, nearly 60,000 people, in order to take down Ji Guo in one fell swoop, and then capture Ji Guo's people on the battlefield to help us fight against Ning Guo. Seeing Dumb asking, the soldier thought Dumb didn't believe it, so he explained.
"Sixty thousand cavalry?" Dumb frowned when he heard the soldier's words.
"No, there are a total of 20,000 cavalry, and the rest are all infantry, and our Kunzi battalion is all composed of cavalry, responsible for the palace, but I didn't expect this to happen in the end. When he said Kunzi Battalion, there was a hint of pride on the soldier's face, but in the end, his voice was lowered.
"How long are you going to stay here?" Dumb looked at the soldier and knew that he was not lying, and couldn't help but sigh secretly - now there are cavalry outside, I can't imagine that there are so many outside, and the situation is not optimistic for me to stay here alone.
"Yesterday I was kicked to death by those war horses, plus the two hundred people who entered the jungle at that time, and we ...... today" The soldier looked at Dumb, his face showed a trace of panic, and only then did he remember that the person in front of him was in control of his life and death, and remembered the companion who had just been killed, and the soldier's voice trembled...... There are so many soldiers who have died at your hands, they will not leave until they find you. β
"The jungle is huge. Hearing the soldier's words, Dumb looked up at the jungle, and a sneer appeared on his face, "You go back and tell your general that it's not so easy to arrest me, let him have the ability to come by himself." β
"I'll definitely bring the words. Listening to the meaning of Dumb's words, he actually had the intention of letting himself go back, the soldier was a little surprised, and quickly replied happily.
"You go, don't look back, or I'll kill you." Looking at the soldier, Dumb stood up.
"I promise not to look back. After saying this, the soldier got up from the ground and ran quickly in the way he came, for fear that Dumb would regret giving him an arrow from behind.
Watching the soldier's back disappear, Dumb looked up at the night, then pulled up a long vine beside him, shook his body, and disappeared into the depths of the jungle in a few ups and downs.

Three days later, there were three people in a temporary military tent in the fishing village, one of whom was a middle-aged man, with a white face and no beard, a sword at his waist, wearing armor printed with a golden flower, in front of him were two young men of about twenty years old, both of whom were very tall, and it could be seen from the silver flowers on the armor on the two of them that the two should be the position of deputy generals, because the armor of the army of Lang Guo was high and low in terms of color. The armor of the thousand man's body is printed with copper flowers, and the shape of the flowers is also different, the shape of the copper flower and the honeysuckle flower are similar to the daylily flower and the lily flower, and the golden flower is the peony.
"Waste, all waste!" After the middle-aged man shouted this, he slammed the teacup in his hand to the ground, and the tea leaves in the teacup splashed on the ground with the tea, looking at the angry middle-aged man, the two lieutenants in the military tent lowered their heads and did not dare to speak.
"It's been four days since I came here, but four hundred soldiers have died in this jungle, and I haven't seen what the other party looks like, and I haven't even found any trace of him in the past two days, what do you two say I want you to do?"
"Your Excellency is angry, that person is too cunning, please give your lordship an order, and take someone to expand the search area and continue to search!" The lieutenant on the right glanced up at the middle-aged man, and then lowered his head and said.
"Pang Fei, how do you want to search this jungle? This jungle is hundreds of miles, and even if you send out all these thousands of soldiers, you may not be able to cover this jungle. The deputy general next to him whispered, and after finishing speaking, he looked at the middle-aged man, and said unintentionally, "We don't have much food and grass here, what does that person eat in the jungle?"
"I must find him and break his body into pieces!" said the middle-aged man, walking back and forth in the military tent, "Wang Jun, if you don't have enough food and grass, you will go fishing in the sea, I don't believe that he can hide in the jungle for the rest of his life." β
"My lord......" Pang Fei glanced at Wang Jun and frowned, "Now that Ji Guo has become the territory of our country, the troops have begun to take the people of Ji Country to the border with Ning Country one after another, we have been staying here, I'm afraid it will be ......"
"What are you afraid of! If I let other generals know that hundreds of soldiers in my hands have been killed by one person, where will my Wang Zeyu's face go?" Wang Zeyu said, with a grim look on his face, "So whether that person is a human or a ghost, I must see it." β
"My lord, there is a trace of doubt in my humble heart. Wang Jun looked at the look on Wang Zeyu's face, and shuddered in his heart, seeing Wang Zeyu looking at him, Wang Jun continued, "If a person has no water source and food in the jungle, even if he is good, his physical strength will decline a little, but this person has not left a trace in the past two days now, and he dares to shout that this jungle is very large, which means that he is not afraid of us looking for him." Speaking of this, Wang Jun paused, "And it turns out that he does have this method to avoid our pursuit." β
"Getting to the point. Looking at Wang Jun, Wang Zeyu frowned, what Wang Jun said now seemed to him to be all nonsense, and Wang Zeyu understood that Wang Jun must have a reason for saying this.
"I think this person is probably a cultivator. Wang Jun looked at the impatient look on Wang Zeyu's face, and after thinking about it for a while, he said cautiously.
"Cultivator?" Pang Fei asked rhetorically after hearing this, his face surprised.
After Wang Zeyu heard Wang Jun's words, he didn't deny it, but just lowered his head and thought about something, and after a while, Wang Zeyu turned his head to look at the bookcase on the side, and there was a sketch of the topography of Ji Guo on the bookcase, "Where is the Qianzi camp now?"
"In the morning, they wrote that they were going to leave, and asked us to join them quickly, presumably they should still be in Falling Flower City by now. Wang Jun stepped forward to the bookcase and pointed to a place in the map.
"Luohua City is two hundred miles away from here. After looking at the coordinates, Wang Zeyu calculated the distance and said, after finishing speaking, he looked up at Wang Jun, "Bring a swift over, I will write to the Qianzi camp and ask them to send someone over." β
Hearing Wang Zeyu's words, Wang Jun was stunned for a moment, and after understanding it, his face showed joy, and then he nodded and ran outside quickly.
"I didn't expect this place to be the land of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon. After Wang Jun left, Wang Zeyu came to the outside of the military tent, looking at the jungle not far away, Wang Zeyu said to Pang Fei behind him, and then Wang Zeyu sneered, "Whether this person is a tiger or a rat, you will know when the people from the Qianzi camp come." β
