Chapter 145: Speculation

Senior Sister Hu frowned and said, "You won't use that sword against the barbarians again, will you?"

Fang Yan said with a smile: "Don't worry, a barbarian tribe is only a few hundred people, and there are no martial king-level masters, it's okay." ”

Lin Feng asked cautiously, "You mean, if there is a Martial King-level master, then the sword slave may fight back?"

Fang Yan spread his hands and said helplessly: "The Demon Lin Sword can bewitch people's hearts, the sword bearer will be affected by the Qilin evil qi, it will first come back to me, the sword slave will find me first, if I can't kill the sword slave, I will have to be hunted down for the rest of my life." ”

Feng Yu said suddenly: "I see, then you better not use that sword, although it is easy to use, but the backlash is too powerful, in case there is a martial king-level master among the barbarians, we can't beat that sword slave." ”

Fang Yan always looked confident: "So, just because there are no martial king masters in the barbarian tribe, we don't have to worry." ”

Fang Fengbao asked curiously, "Brother Yan, how do you know that there are no Martial King-level masters in the barbarian clan?"

Fang Yan said: "It's very simple, the bald people will not allow it, if there is such a master, they will definitely be pulled into the southward army, instead of staying in the tribe, the bald man has just dominated the northern grassland, in exchange for you, if there are martial king-level masters in the wandering tribe, will you let them go?"

The four of them think about it, there is indeed this possibility, the bald people are already small, in order to strengthen their military strength, they must first catch strong men from the barbarians, and those who are strong will naturally be pulled away first, and there is no reason to let them stay.

Senior Sister Hu was still a little worried: "These scattered tribes are going south, preparing to cross the Great West Ridge, it is impossible not to have a master of preparation. ”

Fang Yan said with a smile: "Even if there is, it must be in the forward team, not the barbarians who fall behind, if you really meet such a master, it is just right, the old method from the last time can be used again, let this sword slave deal with these barbarians, more ants bite the elephant, more than 100,000 people are enough." ”

"You!" Senior Sister Hu was angry. "You're gambling with your life, aren't you afraid that the sword will become more and more weird, and in the end, even you, the master, can't control it?"

Fang Yan thought about it, seemed to listen to it, and said seriously: "Your idea is indeed possible, then prepare a second hand to prevent accidents, so there will be no problem." ”

With that, Fang Yan got up and walked down the mountain.

Senior Sister Hu took the first step to stop him and said: "Fang Yan, you can't do this, this will only startle the snake, the barbarian tribe wants to cross the Daxi Ridge, it is nothing more than a few roads, as long as we stop them in front and prevent them from crossing the Daxi Ridge, this is our most important task, not to kill hundreds of thousands of barbarians, the overall situation is the most important." ”

Fang Yan tilted his head and looked at Senior Sister Hu, took a step back and said, "o...... Okay, listen to you, the big picture is important. ”

Seeing that Fang Yan was persuaded, Feng Yu hurriedly said: "Since this is the case, then let's hurry up and get ahead of the barbarians, investigate the shape first, know which way they are going, and make preparations." ”

A few people said that, they immediately packed up and set off, chasing after the vanguard of the barbarians, the five people naturally did not dare to rush in the deep mountains, there were too many high-level demon beasts, but they might cause trouble. At the edge of the mountain forest, close to the grassland, the five people chased in the direction of the barbarians, and did not entangle the demon beasts they encountered along the way, and tried to hide as much as possible.

Walking in the mountains and forests, the barbarians' vultures can't see them, as long as they don't provoke the demon beasts, make a big move, and expose themselves, even if the five people rush in the forest, the barbarians will not go into the mountains to investigate.

In the evening of the next day, the five had already arrived in front of the barbarians, and the five sat in the forest to discuss.

"The Gorge is not far ahead, since the barbarians are stationed here, and they don't choose to hurry again, it seems that they don't plan to pass through the Gorge, and I don't think they are likely to choose this road, so the next choice is nothing more than Mingyue Gorge and Qinggu Valley. Feng Yu said, analyzing the situation detected by the scout ball.

Senior Sister Hu said: "I estimate that Qinggu Valley is their final choice, although Mingyue Gorge is close, but the road is not easy to walk, and there are dangers, Qinggu Valley is the best choice, if it is me, I will definitely choose this road, advance can be attacked, retreat can be defended, not to mention, even if you encounter reinforcements and receive sniping, you can also retreat north, from Mingyue Gorge or Kicking Gorge back to Guanwai." ”

The three of them discussed together, Fang Yan sat on the side and closed his eyes to recuperate, and Fang Fengbao couldn't interject at all, for this situation, he couldn't keep up with the thoughts of a few people at all, so he could only watch dryly, just sit on the side, just wait for the result, and don't have to bother with his brain.

"If this is the case, then we will rush to the green valley first and block the path of the barbarians. After the three of them discussed, Senior Sister Hu decided the result.

Fang Yan suddenly said: "There are so many people from the barbarian tribe, swaggering along the Daxi Ridge, do you think the border guards will investigate?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone shook their heads for a moment, thinking about it carefully, this possibility will indeed exist, the grassland is empty, the barbarian actions can't be hidden at all, it doesn't matter in the hinterland of the grassland, close to the border, even if it is thousands of miles away, it must be the scope of investigation, such a big movement, there is no reason not to find it.

Senior Sister Hu said: "The army is pressing, and the spies under General Hu will only be busy spying on the movements of the army, and will not continue to go deep into the grassland to investigate other movements. ”

Fang Yan sneered: "Do you think that when the barbarian army goes south, the clans will not notice it at all?" I remember that in the past of Daxiling, it seems that it is the territory of the three families of Xiling, and in the past of Qinggu, it seems to be the territory of Mingyue City. ”

Feng Yu seemed to have an understanding and said: "Something is wrong, although there are barbarians in Mingyue City who come over the mountains and mountains to loot every year, they are all a small number of wandering tribes, and they will leave when they plunder, I have never heard of it, there are more than ten or two hundred thousand barbarians appearing." ”

Lin Feng also nodded as if he had a clear understanding and said: "The three families of Xiling are big families, if these barbarians go over the mountain, they will definitely not be able to please them, and the barbarians are not stupid, it is impossible not to understand this truth, unless their goal is not these three roads at all." ”

Senior Sister Hu had a calm face, thinking about something. Suddenly, his expression changed greatly: "Impossible, the road of Qingyun Mountain will not work at all, and it is impossible for barbarians to choose this road." ”

Feng Yu pondered: "Qingyun Mountain, isn't that going around to Gutai Pass." ”

Lin Feng said with a solemn expression: "The three passes of Gutai Pass, North Tai Pass and South Tai Pass are all possible, if the barbarians can pass through Qingyun Mountain, even if they are not aimed at Gutai Pass, they are only aimed at Nantai Pass, and cooperate with the barbarian army to attack before and after......"

Fang Yan said: "Gutai Pass is connected to the grassland, so the barbarians are used to attacking from Gutai Pass, the North Taiguan in the three passes is built in the undulating mountains and the army is stationed in the town, easy to defend and difficult to attack, although the South Taiguan is accompanied by swamps, close to Qingyun Mountain, the garrison is the least, as long as you cross Qingyun Mountain, you can easily cut off the supply line, the barbarians do not need to attack the city, and they can trap the 300,000 troops inside. ”

Senior Sister Hu shook her head and said: "Impossible, Qingyun Mountain is connected to Daxiling, it is impossible to cross Daxue Mountain, the miasma of the Cloud Miasma Valley is pervasive, and Yan will not return to ......."

In the end, Senior Sister Hu couldn't go on, and she seemed to realize that this road was not as impassable as she imagined, and there was still hope to pass.

Fang Yan looked at the sky and said: "It's not early, I'll rest first, the sky is falling and there is a tall man on top, thinking so much, maybe it's just asking for trouble in the end, things haven't come to that point yet, don't be too anxious to make a decision, if you can't help it, you can also let me drop that sword." ”

After that, Fang Yan found a place to meditate, and no longer cared about everyone.

Early the next morning, the barbarians began to hurry again, and everyone followed the barbarian team until they reached the green valley, and before dusk, the barbarians stopped and camped on the spot, and the subsequent tribes came to converge, as if the barbarians were going to pass through the green valley.

Everyone naturally discussed it again, but they could only guess that they didn't know whether the barbarians really wanted to pass through Qinggu Valley, after all, Qingyun Mountain was also close, and it would be half a day's journey away.

"Where have you been, why did you come back?" Senior Sister Hu asked with a frown when she saw Fang Yan coming out of the forest. "There are groups of demon beasts in the Green Valley, aren't you afraid that encountering them will cause unnecessary trouble. ”

Fang Yan casually threw a piece of spirit crystal over and said, "It's nothing, just look at what the sandworm mining machine has dug up, the harvest is good, and a small spirit stone vein has been found." ”

Senior Sister Hu grabbed the spirit crystal and looked at it, and her expression was shocked: "Seventh-grade spirit crystal, this is an eight-grade spirit stone vein?"

Fang Yan nodded and admitted: "There is a group of monkeys occupying that place, it is estimated that there is monkey wine, I originally wanted to go and see it." ”

"Monkey wine, iron gibbon, Fang Yan, don't come nonsense, there are thousands of iron gibbons in the valley, and the five of us are not opponents. Lin Feng hurriedly persuaded with some fear.

The gibbon itself is a seventh-level demon beast, and it also likes to live in groups, occupying the land as the king, even the ninth-level demon beasts don't like to provoke, because their number is usually thousands. And the iron gibbons in the green valley seem to be a little different, their strength is stronger, close to the eighth-level demon beasts, and among the clans, there are many iron gibbons who have advanced to the eighth-level demon beasts.

Lin Feng was afraid of provoking these monkeys, because as long as he provoked one, he would call a group of people to help. When they arrived in the valley, the five of them saw the gibbon group from a distance, and they avoided it from a distance, not daring to approach, for fear of provoking them.

Fang Yan smiled: "It's okay, I didn't provoke them, there will be no problem." I'll go outside and take a look. ”

Seeing that Fang Yan was leaving again, Senior Sister Hu frowned and looked at the direction he was leaving, with a puzzled expression.

Fang Fengbao suddenly stepped forward and said, "Why do I feel that Brother Yan is a little strange?"

Senior Sister Hu glanced at him curiously and said, "Do you think so too?" ”
