Tianming, Liang Zhihong came to report, "Hundreds of us were injured, all of them were slightly injured, and 8 people died, all of whom were victims of the chaotic fighting. ”

"Many of the bandits jumped into the river and escaped, killing 568 people, including many women and children."

"These people, at first, thought that we would not kill women and children, and launched an attack while we were not looking, and eight people died like this, so they all killed them as long as they resisted."

"Only a small number of male bandits were caught, and most of them escaped by jumping into the river."

"The buildings on the surface and some of the boats have burned, and only a few boats are left to be fine."

"A small number of buildings on the side of the mountain are intact, and then there are caves, some of which are still underwater, and they are still being investigated, for fear that some water bandits are hiding."

Ye Xing said, "Their strength has not been greatly damaged, immediately track down the whereabouts of the water bandits, this time we can't defeat and eliminate them, it will be our endless trouble in the future." ”

"You send someone to track it down, you must not underestimate it, they have 9 layers of masters."

Liang Zhihong nodded and hurriedly went to arrange.

Ye Xing asked about the grain, but fortunately, the food of the water bandits was stored in the cave, and there was a large amount of grain, which was not damaged.

Let the soldiers cook, there is no food, but after a busy night, they are hungry, and everyone eats a full meal without vegetables, and then they go to their own errands.

Ye Xing and Li Qifeng were patrolling everywhere, the main force that escaped from the water bandits this time would definitely not be peaceful, and a lot of work had to be done later;

To tell the truth, this operation was a failure, and it did not achieve the established goal of annihilating the White Dragon Society at all, but left the opponent's main force undamaged, which caused countless troubles.

But at this point, there's nothing to say, that's all!

The two of them looked at what preparations had to be made, and more importantly, they immediately went to see if there was anything wrong.

Along the way, more than 100 women and children were tied together, sitting on the shore in horror, and dozens of male bandits were tied to wooden stakes, all with resentful expressions on their faces.

Of course, Ye Xing didn't care at all, but he also understood that these people were not trustworthy even if they surrendered, so he just walked over with a sneer.

When they came to the cave, several veteran members of the special training team guarded them, and when they saw Ye Xing and Li Qifeng, they hurriedly saluted.

Ye Xing patted them on the shoulder, keeping them on their toes.

Entering the cave, there is indeed a lot of food in it, and there are also a lot of other items, and in some small caves next to it, there are still a large number of various valuables, gold, silver and jewelry. This is very neat, classified and orderly.

In a quiet room, it should be a study, with a large number of miscellaneous books, Ye Xing and Li Qifeng looked through them one by one, there were no major discoveries, and it was estimated that they were also looted, and they were not too important.

Ye Xing asked people to ask the captives and their helper's residence.

A captive took Ye Xing and the others to a small cave, which should be very deep inside, and there was a stone door, but it was difficult for Ye Xing, and it was easily opened.

There was no luxury in it, it was simple, but Ye Xing was very happy.

A lot of things were found from a desk, a large number of silver tickets, and some personal correspondence and miscellaneous notes.

There are also pill bottles with more or less some medicines in them, and the names on the bottles.

In a pile of miscellaneous items, there was also a book called "Moving Mountains", Ye Xing didn't have any expectations, looked through it, and found that it was a book of boxing.

There are just some patterns on the book, they look ordinary, and the moves are quite simple, but there are also many thin lines on the pictures, Ye Xing was suddenly shocked, and hurriedly stuffed them in his arms.

Keep checking, and there's nothing left. Then go to some other cave rooms, all of which are cultivation rooms, and they should all be high-level cultivation rooms.

Ye Xing put all the books and medicine bottles in a large cloth bag and took them out. At the door of the cave, I found a table and sat down.

Li Qifeng said, "Senior brother, what should I do now?" I can't stay here anymore. ”

Ye Xing turned to a member of the special training team and said, "Call Li Yishan, Liang Zhihong, and the instructors." ”

When everyone arrived, Ye Xing explained the current situation for a moment before asking, "This battle is basically a failure, if you are stationed here, you will definitely be constantly harassed by water bandits in the future, what do you have to say?" ”

An instructor suggested, "Now we should go back to the two cottages first, have food, and take your time to fight these bandits, anyway, they don't have food or weapons now, just ask them to gather together, and if they find an opportunity, they can solve it at one time." ”

Everyone nodded.

Ye Xing said, "This is the method of holding weight. I want to do it with both hands at the same time! Li Yishan, Liang Zhihong, you each lead an army of 200 people, mainly cavalry, get rid of the water bandits, be careful. ”

"The most important thing to be careful about the oil base is attacked, there is no one there at all, and it is all temporary farmers."

"Commander Li and I each led a part of the people to transport the grain back to the two cottages. Arrangements will be made immediately, and we will return immediately in the afternoon. ”

"Those women and children, as well as some prisoners, don't let them go, attract the bandits to save people, so as to fight the bandits."

In the afternoon, Ye Xing and Li Qifeng each led an army, and each used hundreds of carriages to pull food and belongings back to the cottage.

Leaving Li Yishan and Liang Zhihong each leading an army, all cavalry, also left them with sufficient food.

After four days of marching, Ye Xing returned to Hujiao Mountain, looking at the grain, thinking that he should be able to hold on to the cottage for another half a year.

Since all the original people from Hujiao Mountain were transferred to fight the water bandits, and the people who stayed behind had military cadets and special training team members as the backbone, everything was safe.

Ye Xing sent two birds to Osmanthus Peak, and most of the birds returned for most of the day, bringing back the information that Li Qifeng had arrived at the cottage safely.

Ye Xing asked Wu Xuewen, a cadet of the military academy, to preside over the affairs of the cottage, and the special training team member was also Lin Yifan from Yunhai Village, who was the person in charge of security and was also responsible for the training of the cottage soldiers.

Ye Qingyan continued to be Ye Xing's assistant and was responsible for giving orders to Ye Xing.

Ye Xing summoned 8 children and asked them to boldly speed up their attempts, mainly to make greater improvements in batteries, generators, inductors, and antennas, and to make stronger telegraphs regardless of the cost.

And let Wu Xuewen fully cooperate, at any cost, he must meet all the requirements of the 8 teenagers.

Ye Xing came to a mine cave and asked Ye Qingyan not to disturb him if he was fine, and to prepare some water and food at the entrance of the cave every three days;

Ye Xing is preparing to cultivate with peace of mind for a while, and he has not made progress for a long time.

It took three days for Ye Xing to practice all of his water, wood, fire and internal skills and all his boxing techniques countless times, taking meditation as a rest, completely devoting himself, and found that there was no way to make the slightest progress, it should be a bottleneck.

Ye Xing took out the "Moving Mountain Jue", which is a local boxing method, and the patterns in it are all earth-based methods.

It was still the original method, with the existing internal force operation diagram, Ye Xing deduced through internal vision, and it only took five days to understand all the details of the internal force meridians of the soil system.

Telling Ye Qingyan not to look for himself if he was fine, Ye Xing kept walking to the depths of the mine.

It doesn't stop until the end, this is the mineral deposit and the place where the earth aura is relatively strong.

Ye Xing breathed for a long time, separated the twelve divine senses, and began to introduce the earth aura from the exit acupoints on the surface of the body of the earth meridians at the same time, all of which were introduced into the spleen, and then protected the meridians with the internal force of the water and wood system, and discharged the earth aura in the spleen along the meridians at high speed, and it only took one day to enter the first order, and it took three days to consolidate.

Then Ye Xing let all the acupuncture points on the epidermis of the whole body introduce the earth aura at the same time, and then use his divine sense to introduce the dantian at the same time, and sure enough, the earth aura was completely integrated into the cyclone of the dantian.

The cyclone has its own attraction, so the earth aura that enters the body is like a hundred rivers returning to the sea, and quickly enters the dantian.

The cyclone has a thin yellow line, the speed is also faster, and the yellow color is more and more obvious, the small spin has a great attraction, the aura in the body is fully inhaled into the dantian, and then the trick of the whole body is opened, and the aura from the outside world pours into the body.

Next, Ye Xing continued to use cyclones to impact every meridian of the earth system, interrupting and breaking up, and breaking again, and repeatedly.

These more painful cultivation make the veins more tenacious, make the acupuncture points on the meridians more obvious, and make the muscles flowing through stronger.

When the cyclone became weaker, he cultivated back, and now the cyclone has become four colors, each distinct and entangled with each other, and it has become smaller.

It's just that in less than twenty days, Ye Xing's internal force cultivation has reached the 4th layer, and it has reached the peak of the 4th layer at one time, and now the internal force of the 4th system has all reached the peak.

Ye Xing was now sure that as long as he cultivated the internal force of the gold system, he would definitely be able to advance to the 5th layer very quickly, and it would also be extremely fast progress.

Now Ye Xing's total internal force is 4 times that of ordinary 4-layer masters, and the total amount of internal force is also much higher than that of ordinary 9-layer masters.

The fight is definitely not as good as the warrior of the ninth layer of the day after tomorrow, but it can already challenge the people of the seventh layer by leaping over the level.
