Zhao Lin took the two pages, and saw that the first page was written about the inside story of the bandits' organization, and the second page was a map, marking the location of the trap in the valley of Qizhu Mountain.

There are three places where the beard often moves: Qizhu Peak, Laoling Peak and Fuli Valley.

These three places are in the hinterland of Baektu Mountain, guarded by bandits all year round, and the leopard changes its foothold every once in a while.

The two minions only know the general deployment map of the Seven Pillars Peak, but these traps are not static, and each time they change their nests, the original markings also change.

The size of the beard is about two hundred and seventy or eighty people, and in addition to the drill leopard, there are three of the most powerful members of the backbone members.

The second shopkeeper's surname is Xu Feng, and his temperament is threefold, and he is good at making a big iron rod, which is commonly known as Xu Ma stick.

The three shopkeepers, Yin Hu and Dingtian Liang Wang Mazi, are both cultivators with dual qi realms.

Originally, Zhao Feilong, a ruthless pillar, was also counted as one, but when the person died, the Diamond Mountain Leopard could not find a suitable replacement, and the position was temporarily vacant.

The rest of Tuotianliang (military division), Ma Hao (in charge of horses and livestock), General Urging (in charge of logistics), hanging line (intelligence), etc., also have one or two levels of cultivation.

Zhao Lin noticed a problem and asked, "Why didn't the cultivation of the mountain leopard be written?" ”

Liang Song shook his head and said, "The cultivation of the Diamond Mountain Leopard has always been a mystery, and even his subordinates are not clear. Some say that it is the third level of the Qi Realm, and some say that they have entered the Blood Realm, but they have not broken through to the first level of the Blood Realm. ”

"But the bandits all know one thing, and the second shopkeeper and the third shopkeeper are not his opponents."

Zhao Lin was puzzled, how could he hide his cultivation from the mountain leopard?

However, even if you exclude the Drill Mountain Leopard, the strength of the backbone bandits is stronger than most martial arts halls and small sects, plus they are good at actual combat, have a large number of people, and have no bottom line in doing things, no wonder they have developed and grown so far.

The confession also recorded the daily activities of the bandits and some miscellaneous things, which Zhao Lin kept in mind.

Coming out of the cell, Zhao Lin and Liang Song both felt empty in their stomachs, went out for a meal, and when they returned to the fast room again, Guo Sheng finally appeared.

"Chief Zhao, this is Chu Liu's release order."

Guo Sheng smiled all over his face and handed over an official document: "I am also on official business, if you offend, please don't blame." ”

Zhao Lin knew that the Lingshan faction had relented, so Guo Sheng agreed to release him, and thanked him: "Thank you Brother Guo for your help, although Chu Liu is my senior brother, he is at fault first, and it is light to lock him up for half a day." ”

Guo Sheng observed his words, saw that he looked serious, not like a fake, and said with a smile: "Brother Zhao said this, I am relieved." ”

The two chatted a few more words, and Guo Sheng said goodbye and left.

Zhao Lin looked at the release order in his hand and decided to let Chu Liu stay in the prison room for a while longer, squinting his eyes and leaning back in the chair to make up for sleep.

When it was almost time to disperse, He Qingquan woke Zhao Lin up.

Zhao Lin immediately arrested He Qingquan and went to exile Chu, he really didn't want to deal with this fifth senior brother.

He Qingquan left with the release order and came back after a while.

Zhao Lin saw that his face was not very good, and asked, "Old He, how is it?" What did he say? ”

The corners of He Qingquan's mouth twitched, "I didn't say anything." ”

"Don't even say thank you?"

"Not really."

……

In the evening, Zhao Lin came out of the Liuhe Gate and unexpectedly found Liang Song standing outside the door waiting for him, his face full of red light, and there was a faint expectation in his eyes.

"What's wrong, Brother Liang?"

Liang Song said excitedly: "Do you want to kill the beard again tonight?" ”

Zhao Lin was stunned, "Still going?" ”

"Yes!"

Liang Song snapped his fingers and said, "Yesterday, we killed four and caught two, and the beard was missing six all of a sudden." There are only more than 200 people in total, how many times can they withstand such a toss? ”

"Truth...... That's the truth. ”

Zhao Lin said in a long voice, and then changed the conversation, "Let me ask you a question, if you were a Diamond Mountain Leopard, what would you do today?" ”

Liang Song thought about it seriously for a while, and the smile on his face gradually faded, "I will...... Send a few powerful subordinates to pretend to be minions to keep watch outside, and as long as we appear, we will catch turtles in an urn. ”

"Or dig a pit in front of the mountain and bury a bunch of beast traps ......"

Speaking of this, Liang Song patted his cheek, "Alas, I thought things were simple. ”

Zhao Lin bowed his head and said: "Yes, the beard must be ready now, let them dry for a few days first." ”

……

Time flowed like water, and it was mid-November in a blink of an eye.

During this more than half a month, Zhao Lin and Liang Song were active in the area of Qizhu Peak, Laoling Peak and Fuli Valley from time to time.

When encountering bandits with few people and lone people, they will directly attack and kill, and when they encounter a large group of people, they will avoid it, and in just ten days, the two of them have twenty more beards on their hands.

However, after suffering losses, the diamond leopard became more and more careful.

not only restrained his subordinates and did not give the two a chance to ambush, but sometimes they also set up suspicious formations and used low-powered minions as bait.

The most recent time the two of them were introduced into a mountain urn, if it weren't for Zhao Lin's fast legs, they would have almost been blocked inside.

Since then, the two have stopped going out on adventures and devoted themselves to martial arts, seizing the time to improve their strength.

Liuhe gate, front yard.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhao, for your advice."

Wu Dun and Wang Xiu bowed to Zhao Lin at the same time.

The two of them are newcomers who have just joined Liuhemen, and they were originally under the management of the sixth senior brother Qian Chengfei.

But recently, Qian Chengfei was in the critical stage of breaking through to the Qi Realm, and he rarely had time to come to the front yard, so the two followed the other disciples to practice martial arts.

Because of their similar age, and Zhao Lin is easy-going and doesn't put on a show, the two of them asked him for advice on martial arts when they were fine.

"I can't talk about pointing, it's just a little experience."

Zhao Lin waved his hand casually and walked to the long table on the sidelines.

He took the kettle and poured himself a large bowl of water, then took out a wax pill from his bosom, and drank it.

After moving for a while, when the medicinal power dissipated, Zhao Lin concentrated on playing Liuhe Fist.

This is his daily practice, which is the so-called song never leaving the mouth and fist never leaving the hand.

Halfway through the punch, Zhao Lin suddenly felt that something was wrong with his body.

When he punched and kicked, the diaphragm between his chest and abdomen trembled faintly, and the large tendons of his torso and limbs twitched slightly, making a sound similar to the sound of a bowstring.

The sound is not loud, but in Zhao Lin's ears, it is tantamount to Hong Zhong Dalu!

"I'm ...... It's time to break through the tendons! ”

The sound of muscles and bones is a sign of the triple and double of the force realm.

Zhao Lin has had the experience of bone training, so this time the feeling is particularly clear.

"It's good to be fast, but it's too fast, isn't it?"

This cultivation speed ...... Zhao Lin himself was surprised.

He originally expected that the breakthrough time would be roughly at the end of this year or early next year, but after absorbing the spirit of the golden leopard, the spirit beast diagram significantly accelerated the transformation of the fascia and tendons.

What to do?

Zhao Lin stopped, not daring to continue practicing, otherwise the sound of tendons would get louder and louder, and others would be able to hear it.

The master once told him that when practicing tendons, don't let outsiders know, and you must find a place where no one is around.
