Chapter 409: Encirclement and Suppression
"What's going on?"
A hunter said with an ugly face.
All the markings they had made along the road were gone, the sky was darkened, and the roar of wild beasts could be heard from time to time.
Although they have experience in surviving in the wild, they all have a strong sense of crisis when they spend the night in this strange mountain forest.
The man at the head pondered for a moment, "Maybe we're caught in a certain formation. ”
"Formation?"
The other hunters were a little confused.
"I went to the county seat to sell some furs before, and I heard some people in the rivers and lakes say that there is something called formation in this world, which can reverse yin and yang, reverse the five elements, and once you fall in, it is difficult to come out."
The hunter at the head said.
"How can there be a formation here, so what should we do?"
Everyone was a little panicked.
They are the pillars of the family, and if they fold here, the whole family will collapse.
"Don't worry, we're not fine, it's getting dark, let's stay here first, and then we'll think about how to go out until dawn tomorrow."
The leader of the hunters said slowly.
When everyone heard this, they all nodded helplessly, and began to light a fire, and soon, the fire in this clearing was lit up, and several hunters arranged a simple protective ring around it, and then began to roast meat.
At this time, in this mountain forest, a group of people also appeared, led by Xiao Zhao, who was holding a map in her hand, her face was indifferent, "We have checked a radius of 100 miles, this is the last area, if you are not mistaken, then this is Qi Zixiao's burial place." ”
Around her, more than a dozen figures nodded indifferently, but it took a lot of energy to find a grave in this dense mountain forest.
"Rustle"
As I walked forward, strange sounds were faintly heard around me, and it seemed that countless animals were crawling in the darkness.
But my group didn't care at all, a group of wild beasts, and they also wanted to threaten them, it was just a joke, if they were serious, they could kill the animals of the entire mountain in one stick of incense.
"Roar"
Suddenly, a low roar appeared, accompanied by the howling of the wind, and a colorful tiger leaped out of the dense forest and attacked the group.
Everyone was extremely quiet, only one person stepped forward slightly, the long sword in his hand flashed, and a sword light slashed, and the body of the tiger was instantly torn apart, turning into two halves and falling to the ground.
They continued to walk forward quietly, and suddenly, Xiao Zhao's face changed slightly, and he stopped, "Stop!" ”
Everyone stopped in an instant.
"We seem to be caught in a formation."
Xiao Zhao looked around, but his face was not panicked, and there was even a hint of joy.
At this time, the others also seemed to notice something, and a person took out a compass from his body, and at this time, the compass was spinning wildly.
"The aura here is so chaotic, it seems to have been artificially disrupted, it seems that that the burial place of that guy should be nearby."
The man said.
"Very good, it's not in vain that we have been looking for more than half a month."
Xiao Zhao suddenly laughed.
Formation, she didn't care at all, with the ability of these people, how could a mere formation stop them.
"Do it, break the formation!"
Xiao Zhao commanded.
Hearing this, the surrounding people took out some ornaments from their bodies and placed them around, and a person carved strange lines on the ground.
Xiao Zhao waited patiently, since they came to find Qi Zixiao's burial place, they would naturally take into account the factors of the formation, so they were all fully prepared.
In the darkness, a vague figure stood, quietly watching this scene, as if it did not exist at all.
After about half an hour, they were finally ready, everyone stood in a special position, and the next moment, everyone bit their fingers, their hands were sealed, and they shouted, "Break!" ”
There was a faint light on everyone's body, starting from the first person, the light spread, connecting one by one, and the next moment, the light on their body formed a huge symbol.
Dragon Tiger Mountain, at this time, Xuan Youzi was sitting in a quiet room wearing the clothes of the Dragon Tiger Mountain Sect Master, and suddenly, he opened his eyes and looked into the void.
"The formation left by the master has been shaken, it seems that someone doesn't want to wake up together......"
He was about to take someone there, but he pinched his fingers and calculated, and suddenly showed a smile, "It's a coincidence that they came, it seems that I don't need Longhu Mountain to make a move......"
……
At this time, about dozens of miles away from the place where Qi Zixiao was buried, a group of people were also quietly walking here, some of them were wearing purple clothes, some were wearing blue clothes, and they were the head catchers of Qingzhou Mansion.
The leader was a middle-aged man with a cold face, with a round breath, and he had reached the six-grade level of leisure.
"Head, where the hell are we going?"
As he walked, a purple-clothed catcher asked suspiciously.
They were all suddenly ordered and urgently summoned, and they had no idea where they were going or what they were doing.
A gleam flashed in the eyes of the man at the head, looking at the dark mountains and jungles in front of him, thinking about the news he had gotten, whether it was intelligence from the imperial court secret agent, or a prefecture-level secret agent.
The Daqi court has a special place, for the six gates, responsible for the arrest of murderers, investigation of cases, and maintenance of law and order in various places, the headquarters is located in Shangjing, the state capitals, county seats, and even the county government to arrest fast, the head arrest is all to obey the dispatch of the six gates.
The Six Doors are loyal to the royal family, and the royal family firmly controls all the power of the six doors.
In addition to the murder and investigation, the six doors are also responsible for supervising the world, and the secret agents are distributed in all directions, divided into heaven and earth, and no one knows the true identity of these secret agents except for a few people.
The news he got was just a very simple sentence, "The Red Moon has appeared"
Plus an address.
If it weren't for the last imprint of intelligence, he wouldn't have believed the news.
It was a mark peculiar to agents inside the Six Doors.
When he heard the news, he immediately reported it to his boss, that is, Tie Chop, as the supreme leader of all the headhunters in Qingzhou, Tie Chop naturally would not come forward easily.
Therefore, he arranged for his right-hand man, Tong Luyang, to come forward.
"Here we are."
Tong Luyang looked at the mountains and forests in front of him, and slowly spoke, he looked at the people beside him, and then said the task of this trip, "I received a secret report, the people of the Red Moon appeared here, and this time we will leave all these people behind." ”
"What, the people of the Red Moon!"
Hearing this, everyone was taken aback, as the head catcher of Qingzhou Mansion, they naturally knew what the red moon represented, this was the remnants of the sixteen kingdoms of the previous dynasty, with the goal of overthrowing the Great Qi Divine Dynasty, it was their first target.
Tong Luyang waved his hand and motioned for everyone to be quiet, "This mission is top secret, and the reason why I don't tell you is also to prevent the news from leaking, remember, if you can catch it alive, you will catch it alive." ”
As he spoke, he walked forward with the people, and all his breath was restricted.
"Head, how is Red Moon's strength this time? What are the masters, do we call more people? ”
A catcher asked, slightly worried.
Although they have self-confidence, but they are not stupid, even if the remnants of this group of countries have been surrounded and suppressed for many years, they have not disappeared, which is enough to prove that they have a deep heritage, they are a six-grade on this trip, although there are many masters of the fifth and fourth grades, but they are also afraid of accidents.
The corners of Tong Luyang's mouth lifted a smile, "Don't worry, I'm measured, do you really think we're going to go!" ”
He looked to another place, where the same group of men and horses appeared, entering the forest from another direction.
Two sixth-ranked, nearly ten fifth-ranked, and dozens fourth-ranked, he didn't believe that Hongyue could mobilize more masters.
At this time, in the mountains and forests, the symbols formed by Xiao Zhao and others appeared, and the next moment, the surrounding space changed, and a broken sound was faintly heard.
Xiao Zhao and the others looked at the surrounding ornaments again, they were all shattered at this time, but they didn't care, they just sneered, "It seems that the bull's nose of Longhu Mountain still has some ability, and a large array has caused us to lose a lot of treasures." ”
"Let's go, I'll see who else can save that guy this time."
Xiao Zhao said, leading the person and striding forward.
At this time, in the clearing, several hunters were eating barbecue, and their faces were not very good-looking under the light of the flames.
"Did you hear anything?"
Suddenly, a hunter spoke.
"Howling wolf?"
Others asked.
"No, it's like a breathing sound."
The hunter who spoke shook his head and said.
When the others heard this, they all closed their mouths, and listened carefully, and vaguely, they seemed to really hear a trace of breathing, as if it was coming from under the ground.
The hunter's pupils constricted, and he couldn't help but get nervous, he often entered some cities, so he naturally knew some rumors, in the wilderness, it was not a rare thing to cheat corpses.
"Is this a mass grave?"
The hunter thought in a panic.
"Let's go, get out of here......"
Suddenly, in the hearts of the hunters, a calm voice appeared.
They were all taken aback, and hurriedly looked around, trying to find the source of the sound, but after looking around, they didn't find it.
The voice was extremely unfamiliar, not the voice of any of them.
The hunter's face was cloudy, and the next moment, he suddenly got up, "Okay, don't eat, hurry up!" ”
As he spoke, he was about to extinguish the flames, and the others all got up one after another, intending to leave here, but before they could leave, figures slowly appeared in the dense forest.
Looking at these terrifying figures, the group of hunters was suddenly startled, and they felt that their legs were trembling.
"Who are you?"
The hunter at the head asked with a trembling voice.
"It turned out to be just ordinary Orions, let's kill them all."
Xiao Zhao looked at these people and spoke flatly.
The words fell, and beside her, a figure lifted a touch of coldness at the corner of his mouth, and the long sword at his waist was unsheathed, and with a "swish", a sword swept and killed this group of innocent hunters.
However, before the sword light fell, an invisible fluctuation was transmitted, directly shattering the sword light, and even the figure out of the sword flew out upside down.
Above the clearing, a figure appeared, looking at them with a smile on his face, "In Zhao Changhe, the Lower Qingzhou Mansion, I have seen you." ”
"A sword breaks through the sky, Zhao Changhe."
Seeing this person, Xiao Zhao's face suddenly sank, she recognized this person's identity, it was the deputy of the Qingzhou Mansion General Capture, the six-rank master, although he was not on the ground list, but his combat power was no worse than the top ten masters on the ground list.
