Chapter 331: Steady
Under the guidance of Li Xuan, Xu Lang and the eunuchs in flower-clothed clothes quickly approached the camp of the group of robbers in the mountain col.
On the way, Li Xuan also told Xu Lang all the news he had heard in the camp before.
After Xu Lang got these news, he couldn't help but look solemn.
"There are so many traps around the camp."
"It seems that there is a middle and high master in this gang of robbers."
Li Xuan also pointed out the terrain near the camp, the distribution of the traps he detected, and the sentry on the trees.
In addition, Li Xuan couldn't count the total number of robbers in the camp, only knew that there were about twenty or thirty people, and the difference between them and their number was not large.
Xu Lang kept all this information in his heart.
In a few moments, they had climbed over the hill, and the col below was already in view.
Xu Lang immediately stopped and raised his hand, and the eunuchs in flower-clothed clothes who followed him also stopped with him.
"My lord, is that there?"
Li Xuan nodded, then stretched out his tail, and Xu Lang hurriedly handed over his palm.
"There's a dense forest in the col, and their camp is in it, but I reckon there's their eyeliner near the col."
"I was so easy to touch in before, and my body took advantage of it."
"I'm afraid you won't be so easy to hide from people."
After Li Xuan finished writing these contents, he retracted his tail.
Xu Lang nodded, agreeing with Li Xuan's analysis.
"Your Excellency is right."
"So it's not the best time to get started."
Xu Lang looked at the terrain below, and he also felt a little tricky.
This terrain is just too good for defense.
No matter from which direction an enemy is approaching, as long as you arrange a sentry post near the mountainside of the mountains on both sides, you can easily control the situation of the entire mountain col.
And the dense forest terrain where the camp is located is even more difficult to attack.
Xu Lang wants to complete this mission, and he wants to complete it beautifully, so there must not be too many unnecessary casualties.
At the moment, they can't figure out the strength of the other party.
Then we must take the lead and take advantage of their unpreparedness to carry out a sneak attack.
But Xu Lang studied it and summoned a few good players in the team, but there was no good way.
No matter how they act, they have to take a lot of risks.
"Captain, you can only fight quickly and take down the opponent's enemy."
"With the darkness of the night tonight, coupled with the terrain in front of you, it will take a lot of time to get rid of all the light and dark sentinels without alarming people."
"We don't know when they're going to change the guard, so it doesn't make a lot of sense."
In the team, the most experienced veterans of reconnaissance gave their own advice.
But the current captain is Xu Lang, and what to do depends on his final decision.
If you want to make great contributions, you must keep as many alive as possible while catching them all.
But then the risk of failure is also high.
At this time, the quick battle suggested by this person to take down the leader of the other party as soon as possible also risks letting the other party's important people go.
In this case, it depends on how the decision-maker decides.
The people under him only need to do their duty and give professional advice.
Xu Lang was suddenly entangled, but he was a cautious person, so he put the completion of the task first.
After all, as long as the task is completed, it is a credit.
It's a great achievement, such a word has nothing to do with Xu Lang.
He quickly gave up the possibility of catching them all, intending to accept the offer of a quick solution.
"Rest in place, stay on guard, and do it at every hour."
Xu Lang exhaled a breath of turbid air and gave his own order.
Li Xuan also nodded, very satisfied with Xu Lang's caution.
"My lord, there is one thing to ask for."
Xu Lang bowed his head slightly and said to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan raised his eyebrows, and said secretly in his heart:
"Oh roar, it looks like my kitten is going to go out."
But Li Xuan did not give an immediate answer, but planned to listen to Xu Lang's plan first.
"I would like to ask my lord to sneak into the thief's camp again, and we will meet with the outside later."
"Adults don't need to strike head-on, just create chaos in the camp and disrupt the thieves' response."
"If they evacuate decisively, please follow them and leave a mark along the way."
"Of course, all of this is premised on the premise that adults can keep themselves safe."
"If the situation is not right, please evacuate to a safe place immediately and wait to join us."
Li Xuan thought about it and felt that Xu Lang's request was not difficult, so he nodded and agreed.
Seeing Li Xuan agree, Xu Lang was also overjoyed.
He is also out now, and even Li Xuan has used it.
In fact, in this palace investigation, Li Xuan's safety is the top priority, and there must be no mistakes.
But Li Xuan had quietly probed the thief's camp before, and Xu Lang also began to reassess Li Xuan's strength.
And he really wants to take every opportunity.
Xu Lang felt that with Li Xuan's previous performance, even if the situation was not right, it should not be a problem to retreat.
Because, if the situation near the camp is really as Li Xuan said, Li Xuan's stealth ability is much stronger than that of their flower-clothed eunuchs.
"My lord, this is a fire oil bottle, and when you smash it, it will ignite the flames on its own, and it will be very difficult to extinguish."
Xu Lang said, and took out a palm-sized clay jar from his arms, which looked dusty but not very inconspicuous.
"If the thieves notice our movement later, please set fire to the camp and cause a disturbance."
Xu Lang said, strung the five fire oil bottles on his body with a thin rope, and handed them all to Li Xuan.
Li Xuan easily hung the five oil bottles with his tail, and after thinking about it, he felt that it was not enough, so he asked Xu Lang to get more for himself.
Xu Lang immediately made up five more from the hands of the eunuchs in flowery clothes, and brought the original ten enough for Li Xuan to bring.
Li Xuan checked the weight on his tail, and finally left satisfied.
Xu Lang led the eunuch in flower clothes to rest in place, waiting for the time to come, and then launched a surprise attack on the camp in the dense forest.
The time they chose was when people were sleeping well and the sentry posts were tired.
After Li Xuan walked out for a distance, he put the fire oil bottle Xu Lang gave him into the Dihong Bone Ring, and then sneaked back into the camp again.
The camp was quieter than before, and it was clear that most of the people were resting.
These robbers were different from Xu Lang and chose to set up a tent.
Although it looks a little simpler, it is not a problem to shelter from the wind and rain.
After all, these robbers are different from them, they have lived in this mountain for several days, and if they always sleep in the open, they probably can't stand it.
Li Xuan found a nearby tree that was convenient for observing the camp, and then lay on the branch, waiting for the operation to begin.
In addition to the snoring in the camp, there were some small movements such as turning over.
On top of that, it's more of an annoying bug chirp.
Li Xuan closed his eyes and pretended to sleep, but his ears were raised high, paying attention to the movements in the camp.
From time to time, there will be some footsteps, which seem to be the handover of the sentry post.
It's just that there are always footsteps, and it seems that the law of this shift should not be simple, and even looks chaotic.
Time passed slowly, and the night became even darker.
The silent night is heavy, the floating light is hazy, and the cold soaking dissolves the moon.
I don't know how long it took, but suddenly there was a piercing scream in the distance.
Li Xuan's ears clearly heard the sound of regular breathing in the camp, and he didn't know how much he was confused.
"Enemy ......"
As soon as the scarred man lifted his tent, he shouted a word when he saw a black shadow attacking in front of him.
He subconsciously turned around and flashed, and flexibly flashed the secret weapon that attacked him.
The next moment, he heard a crisp "bang", and then the tent behind him was full of flames, and in a short time it began to burn.
"Enemy attack, give Lao Tzu up!"
The man with the scar roared angrily, and the sound resounded through the dense forest and spread far and wide.
"Cut, it's good."
Li Xuan, who was secret, pursed his lips and felt a little regretful.
But then, he continued to roll up a fire oil bottle with his tail, and smashed the fire oil bottle out with the method of rolling stones.
This time, he targeted the largest tent in the camp.
With such a big target, Li Xuan naturally has no chance of missing.
As the bottle full of fire oil smashed into the tent, the mechanism that ignited the fire in the bottle was instantly activated, and the tent was swallowed into flames.
Immediately afterward, a terrible scream came from inside the tent, and several burning men ran out of it, falling to the ground and rolling wildly, trying to extinguish the fire on their bodies.
The other robbers in the vicinity turned pale with fright when they saw what happened to their companions, but then immediately stepped forward to help.
The camp had begun to light up with firelight.
Li Xuan didn't dare to stay in place for long, changed his position on the tree, and then threw all the remaining oil bottles.
At this moment, the camp of the robbers in the dense forest was already in a sea of fire, and almost all their tents were burned.
As for the place where the goods were stored, Li Xuan didn't move at all.
Maybe there are treasures in this place that he needs.
Where did he dare to set fire to the goods at will.
And the robbers naturally did not sit still, and let Li Xuan bully them.
The man with the scar was the first to act, wielding a ghost-headed knife in his hand, slashing out one after another, and attacking in the direction where the oil bottle was thrown.
The knife slashed through the branch where Li Xuan had stood, was cut off silently, and then fell silently, smashing a lot of movement in the forest.
After Li Xuan threw the ten oil bottles, he regained his distance and hid in the night.
The vicinity of the camp was now lit up by fire, and it was no longer suitable for him to continue to approach.
He chose to hide in the darkness farther away, saving the robbers from playing with him.
"Where are the rats, hiding their heads and showing their tails."
"Kind of come out and compare with me!"
The man with the scar roared angrily, and the hand holding the ghost head knife was covered with thick green tendons.
The other party made his camp look like this, and he couldn't even find the other party's traces.
This made the man with the scar a little chilled, so he had to look at the other party's reaction with words.
And at this time, his subordinates did not slack off, and even gestured again and again, not knowing what message was being conveyed.
"I can't imagine that he is still a master at the same level as Xu Lang."
Li Xuan looked at the incompetent and angry man with scars, but he didn't dare to underestimate this person at all in his heart.
On the way out of the palace this time, Li Xuan asked Xu Lang a lot about cultivation.
The core of the cultivation of the three grades is the true qi.
Practicing a wisp of true qi can be regarded as truly having the strength of the middle and third grades.
With the strength of the Sensing Qi Realm, you can use the True Qi in your body to all parts of your body, making your moves more powerful.
And after one step closer, it was Xu Lang who could beat out the true qi in his body like this, that is, the imperial qi transformation of the five-rank realm.
And the knife gang cut out by the scarred man before seems to be a means of resisting qi transformation, but it doesn't look as cool as Xu Lang's move.
But in terms of lethality, it's not bad at all.
Separated by several zhang distance, the big tree hugged by one person was also broken.
"No wonder I can destroy the guards of Ping An Trading House so easily, it turns out that there are masters of the five grades in charge."
You must know that the way to martial arts cultivation, the higher you go, the more difficult it becomes.
Wupin is already a master of the rivers and lakes.
After all, the upper three products are all legends in the rivers and lakes.
The third grade can go sideways on the rivers and lakes.
Most of the people on the rivers and lakes are just cultivating the lower three grades, and they just eat with their mouths.
The cultivation of the five grades can be served as elders in some sects.
Li Xuan hid in the darkness in the distance, observing everything that was happening in the camp.
It is also strange to say that in such a chaotic, noisy, and poor vision, the man with the scar chose to use gestures to give his own orders.
The robbers in the camp were already in disarray, and most of them didn't notice the gestures of the scarred man, except for a few people around the scarred man.
"Who is he making this gesture for?"
Li Xuan couldn't help but tilt his head, feeling a little strange.
The man with the scar can be the leader of these people, he is definitely a capable person, and it is impossible to make such a mistake in a panic.
But at this time, the movement of the scarred man's hand paused, and then he opened his throat and shouted:
"Assemble, defend against the enemy!"
Hearing this, the robbers under his command could no longer care about the burning tents, and hurriedly gathered around the scarred man.
And the fire oil bottle that Li Xuan threw out earlier did not cause effective damage.
Except for a few unlucky ones who were burned by him, not even a single one was burned to death.
"That's right, these are outlaws who lick blood from the knife edge, how can they be burned to death so easily."
It's just enough to delay them for a while, Li Xuan has already heard the shouting and killing sound in the distance getting closer and closer, Xu Lang and they have now advanced to a very close place.
A big war between the two sides is on the verge of breaking out.
Just when Li Xuan thought that he had successfully completed the task and was about to retire, he suddenly caught an unfamiliar smell rapidly approaching him.
But his ears didn't catch any strange sounds.
But Li Xuan believed in his sense of smell, and he jumped to the side, just wanting to escape from the strange smell that was quickly approaching him.
The next moment, the tree he was standing on was cut in two, and the thick trunk was cut through the middle line with precision.
Li Xuan looked back, and only then did he catch a black shadow falling to the ground.
"Oops found out!"
Only then did Li Xuan understand who the scarred man's gesture was for, and it turned out that there was such a master hidden in secret.
And the man with the scar in the camp also noticed the movement here, only to see him shouting from a distance:
"I'll leave it to you over there."
"Play by the old rules."
Li Xuan didn't know what their old rules were, but he knew he was in trouble.
This person, who was called the fourth child by the scar man, had a gloomy face, was dressed in a pitch-black night suit, and carried a short sword with the length of an adult's forearm in his hand.
Although the attack that split the tree in two with a single blow just now was done by virtue of the mediocre short sword in his hand.
"Wouldn't he be a master of the five grades?"
Li Xuan stood on the branch, looked at the fourth child below, and couldn't help muttering in his heart.
And while Li Xuan was looking at the fourth child, the fourth child was not looking at him.
"Demon beasts?"
The fourth child never thought that the one who secretly set fire to the camp would be such an inconspicuous little black cat in front of him.
"No wonder no one has been intruded."
The fourth sentinel in charge of the camp was suddenly attacked tonight, and he was touched at the door of his house without noticing, which was his dereliction of duty.
It's just that he looked at Li Xuan in front of him, and he was also angry.
"It's really hateful to even cultivate such a demon beast!"
The fourth child kicked the ground with anger, and his whole body rushed towards Li Xuan like an arrow from the string.
Whoosh –
Li Xuan saw that he was aggressive, and immediately turned his head and ran.
"A good cat doesn't suffer immediate losses."
"It's not my duty to fight today."
"If you want to fight, you naturally have someone to accompany you."
Li Xuan sneered in his heart, and then took the fourth child in the direction of Xu Lang and them.
This fourth is obviously a master who is good at sneak attacks and assassinations, so he is even more proficient.
Even if Li Xuan suppressed his speed, the fourth child could steadily chase after him, which shows how extraordinary this person's attainments in light skills are.
But this fourth child is not a fool, he saw that no matter how he accelerated, he couldn't catch up with the little black cat in front of him.
And the front can already vaguely perceive that many people are coming, and the fourth child does not dare to continue to go deeper.
"No, we have to make a decision sooner!"
The fourth child made up his mind in his heart, immediately put the knife into the sheath, and then stretched out his hands, and suddenly there were several more plum blossom darts between his fingers.
He saw the opportunity, locked the timing of Li Xuan's vacancy, and then shook his hands violently, shooting out all the plum blossom darts in his hands.
"Die!"
The moment the plum blossom dart was shot, the four elders shouted, wanting to shock Li Xuan's mind, so that he could reveal more flaws.
Li Xuan sensed the sound of breaking the air rapidly approaching behind him, and quickly curled up his body into a small ball.
But even so, he still couldn't dodge all the plum darts.
I saw a plum blossom dart shoot Li Xuan's tail, and then hit him with undiminished force, making his figure in the air suddenly crooked and smashing towards the tree trunk on the side.
"Good chance!"
The fourth child shouted in his heart, and then drew his sword and pounced, intending to cut the little black cat that made him lose face tonight in two.
The cold flashes and the sparks splash everywhere!
The fourth child couldn't help but widen his eyes and looked at the little black cat with a sly smile in front of him.
"How is this possible!?"
The fourth child never thought that his invincible short sword would be stopped by such a small and cute cat's paw.
Li Xuan's eyes were full of mockery when he looked at the fourth child.
The previous plum blossom dart was deliberately followed by Li Xuan with the Dihong bone ring on his tail, and then pretended to use his tail to twitch himself, pretending to lose his balance in the air.
When the fourth child hesitated before, Li Xuan noticed that his speed was beginning to slow down.
It was not easy to isolate a tricky enemy, how could Li Xuan let him go so easily.
And sure enough, the fourth child despised Li Xuan, and as soon as he saw Li Xuan's flaws, he couldn't wait to catch up.
It is estimated that he could never have imagined that Li Xuan had the strength to take his move.
At this time, the fourth child only felt that the hairs on his body stood upside down.
With such a smart demon beast, he had never heard of it.
The fourth child looked at the vivid expression on Li Xuan's face, and only felt a chill.
"I've been counted by a cat?"
The moment he realized this fact, he no longer had the will to fight, and he just wanted to leave quickly.
But the fourth child only found out at this time that his short sword couldn't be pulled back, and was hooked by Li Xuan's cat claws.
And the huge power that kept coming from the cat's paws made him have to resist with all his might.
"It's evil!"
"This strength, this strength, it has been running before!?"
The more the fourth child thinks about it, the colder he becomes, and he just wants to hurry up and converge with the boss, and withdraw as far as he can.
But the next moment, his heart was really cold.
"Hmm......"
The fourth child snorted, and found that he had several sharp blades inserted into his chest at some point.
He struggled to look up and noticed several strange figures beside him.
Before he could continue to think about it, the world in front of him began to roll violently, and finally he could no longer hold his eyelids, and everything fell into the darkness of nothingness.
Li Xuan put away his claws and looked at the headless corpse in front of him, which collapsed weakly, and was secretly shocked in his heart.
"What a execution."
And in front of him, there was Xu Lang, who was carrying the fourth head.
Xu Lang held a straight-edged long knife in his hand, similar in style to the Tang knife, but the material looked a little special, the whole body was pitch black, no reflection, and it looked like he was holding a long strip of shadow at night.
Xu Lang shook the long knife in his hand, and all the blood stains on it were shaken off, and there was not a single drop.
"What a knife!"
Li Xuan couldn't help but sigh in admiration when he saw it.
And the other eunuchs in flower-clothed clothes who stabbed the fourth child in the heart also withdrew their knives, and then continued to move forward under Xu Lang's signal.
"Are you alright, sir?"
Xu Lang half-knelt on the ground and asked Li Xuan.
According to the task of their trip, they were supposed to stay alive as much as possible, but as soon as Xu Lang saw that Li Xuan and the fourth child were fighting, he didn't care about anything else, so he directly issued an order to kill the fourth child.
Li Xuan shook his head and signaled that he was fine.
He couldn't help but glance at the headless corpse that fell to the ground, and it was estimated that the fourth child didn't expect that he would chase his life directly after the cat for the first time.
In response to the old saying, don't chase the wild cats on the side of the road.
Otherwise, it's okay to be scratched twice, but it's not worth losing your life.
The fourth child on the ground is a lesson from the cold past.
Li Xuan jumped directly on Xu Lang's shoulder, then stretched out a paw and pointed straight forward.
Xu Lang immediately realized and went to chase the figures of his companions in front of him.
Previously, Xu Lang led people to advance and pulled out the light and dark sentry positions on the periphery, but unfortunately there was an accident in the middle and there was some movement.
These sentry posts are extremely disgusting, and they are very particular about their location and distance, which makes Xu Lang and them really work hard.
But if they know that they have lost their heads, it is estimated that they will be in a better mood now.
The men and horses of both sides rushed to this side, and immediately the two sides collided together, and there was a fierce shout of killing in the dark forest.
The number of eunuchs in flowery clothes was smaller, but they were obviously all elite.
Although there were many people on the bandits' side, the good and the bad were mixed, and they had just fought each other, and they were crushed at the touch of a button.
The eunuchs in flowery clothes held on to the long black knives and killed the robbers, like hungry wolves jumping into the flock, only to see the scarlet blooms, and they had already harvested several lives.
What's even more terrifying is that the eunuchs in flower clothes are also proficient in the way of joint attacks, cooperate with each other tacitly, and cover each other's flaws between moves, like sophisticated killing machines.
In just an instant, the morale of the robbers' side plummeted and was on the verge of collapse.
It is estimated that when they killed all the guards of the Ping An Trading Company, it was also the current scene.
When the man with the scar saw this scene, his pupils suddenly shrank, and he realized that something was wrong.
But he didn't show any expression on his face, and even quietly lowered his sense of existence, and slowly killed to the edge of the battle.
The eunuch in flower clothes is a master of the middle and third grades, and at worst, he also has the strength of the six-grade sense realm.
On the other hand, the span of strength on the robbers' side is only a little large.
The strongest scar man has the strength of the fifth grade, but there are also a lot of people and horses of the lower third rank among them, and it is precisely because of this that they have no power to resist in front of the three-grade flower-clothed eunuchs in all the staff.
After Xu Lang arrived with Li Xuan, he was not in a hurry to join the battle, but observed first.
After he saw that his side had an absolute advantage, he did not rush to do it himself, but looked for the master of the robber side, and planned to take down all the masters on the opposite side first.
But at this moment, Li Xuan on his shoulder suddenly stretched out his claw and pointed at the scarred man who was sneaking out of the battle in the distance.
Li Xuan didn't care about anything else, and directly "meowed" his throat to remind Xu Lang.
Xu Lang also reacted immediately, knowing that the characters specially pointed out by Li Xuan must be extraordinary, and he directly carried light skills, and went straight to the man with scars in a vertical leap.
When the man with the scar heard the sound of breaking the air behind him, he immediately turned ruthless, and he didn't even look back, and his backhand was a knife looking back at the moon, and he slashed out a powerful knife.
Li Xuan made a decision immediately and jumped directly off Xu Lang's shoulder.
Next is the confrontation between the two of them five-grade masters, and Li Xuan still doesn't want to make trouble for Xu Lang.
Xu Lang saw the other party's means of exerting his true qi, and immediately understood that this was to find the main master, a fine light flashed in his eyes, and he shouted:
"Well, don't be caught yet!"
Xu Lang made a move with his back hand, and also cut out a blue knife, after breaking through the scar man's knife, he continued to rush towards the scar man unabated, and the scar man rolled to the side in embarrassment, which was able to avoid Xu Lang's knife.
Xu Lang's knife slashed on the ground and directly blasted out a ravine, which shows the strength of the power.
"Xu Lang's strength is really powerful."
Li Xuan stood on the branch of the tree on the side and sighed.
is also in the five-grade realm, and the scarred man who was originally still bullish and coaxed withered directly after meeting Xu Lang.
This shows how much difference the difference in spiritual resources can cause.
Xu Lang and the man with the scar had already exchanged hands, and the fight was full of fire, and his true qi floated.
Only then did Li Xuan discover that the true qi attribute of the scar man was gold.
Jin Shengshui, the scar man doesn't even take advantage of the five elements attribute of true qi, it seems that the defeat is decided.
Li Xuan immediately turned his head to look at the other side.
The battle between the eunuchs in flower clothes and the robbers was also relatively smooth, but Li Xuan found out that there were also a few difficult players mixed in with the robbers.
said that it was difficult, but it was just a few more tricks with the eunuch in flowery.
After the eunuchs in flower clothes killed a few people with blood and qi at the beginning, they have now begun to hurt people more.
After all, they still need to torture these living mouths afterwards to find out who is behind them.
It's just that in this way, it is inevitable that the strength of the eunuchs in flower clothes will be somewhat restricted.
"This side seems to be more in line with my current strength."
Li Xuan observed for a while and found that the battle situation here could also be mixed in, and there was no danger.
Li Xuan is rare to be real with people, and now that he has the opportunity, his claws are naturally itchy.
He learns martial arts and doesn't fight, isn't that learning in vain?
Li Xuan immediately took action, plunged his head from the branch, and participated in the fierce battle.
Of course, there are many different styles of fighting.
Li Xuan was deeply rooted in the essence of the sixth child, lying on the ground, relying on his swift speed to sneak attack the lower body of the robber.
I saw Li Xuan's body swimming like a ghost in the chaotic footsteps, stretching out his sharp cat's claws, tearing open deep wounds that could be seen in the bones.
The eunuchs in flowery clothes also found that their opponents suddenly fell to the ground screaming, waving the weapons in their hands and struggling, which frightened them.
When I looked down, I saw that they had terrible wounds on their legs, gushing and bleeding.
It's just that Li Xuan found that the effect of this didn't seem to be very good.
Although he was able to inflict heavy blows on the robbers, when they fell to the ground, they struggled violently with pain.
"No, we have to make them so painful that they don't have the power to resist."
Li Xuan looked down at his pink cat's claws, and finally gritted his teeth and raised the cat's claws a little higher.
He clearly knew that if this cat's claw was raised, he would be tainted with a lot of sins.
After Li Xuan adjusted the height of the cat's claws, he walked around the crowd again.
This time, the robbers let out even more terrible screams, and after falling to the ground, they had no power to resist.
The better ones fell to the ground, rolling their eyes and convulsing.
Almost, his eyes were closed, silent, and he didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Li Xuan jumped to the side and shook his paws, but there was still a commotion.
"It's over, I can't ask for claws!"
Although thinking so, Li Xuan still found a tree and began to sharpen his claws.
Of course, he mainly wanted to get rid of the bad smell.
At the same moment, the eunuchs in flowery clothes looked at Li Xuan, who was busy grinding his claws, and then looked at the robbers who fell to the ground.
Especially when they saw the bloody wounds of the robbers, they were even more reminded of the deep sadness in their hearts, and the hands holding the knives trembled slightly.
Because of this, there was even more awe in their eyes when they looked at Li Xuan again.
Li Xuan saw that these eunuchs in flowery clothes were stunned in place, and immediately meowed angrily, and pointed at Xu Lang and the scar man who were fighting on the other side.
These eunuchs in flowery clothes woke up like a dream at this time, and immediately sent out a few of the most powerful players to help Xu Lang.
When the eunuch in flower clothes performs the task, he doesn't talk about the rules of the rivers and lakes, and everything is based on completing the task.
The man with the scar was already down, but now when he saw Xu Lang having a few more helpers from the sixth grade, he immediately shouted in his heart: "My life is over!" ”
His face suddenly showed a bit of determination, and then in the midst of the siege, he used an astonishing night battle in all directions.
It's just that the scar man doesn't seem to be so skillful in this move, and the blade actually wiped his neck.
"Oh no, stop him!"
A eunuch in a flower dress saw that something was wrong and reminded him loudly.
But the scar man is skilled, and he has the intention of death, and his moves are fast.
The man with the scar has closed his eyes, just waiting for the ghost knife in his hand to cut his throat and end his life of sin.
But then, the man with the scar only felt a numbness in the hand holding the knife, a slight chill on his neck, and a warm liquid flowed out.
Although the man with the scar committed suicide for the first time, he has cut off the heads of many people, so he knows that it is not like this.
He reopened his eyes in confusion, only to find that there was only a broken knife left in his hand, and there was a little blood left on the section.
The man with the scar felt a little heaviness in his shoulders, and turned his head to see that there was a little black cat standing there at some point.
Before he could continue to think about it, he saw the little black cat smile at him, and then he made an intimate contact with the little black cat's head, and he fell unconscious in front of him.
"Hey, is it possible that this guy has also practiced iron head?"
Li Xuan frowned in pain, and his little face wrinkled.
"Are you alright, sir?"
Xu Lang hurriedly stepped forward, and while speaking, he neatly broke the tendons of the scarred man's hands and feet.
Li Xuan shook his head, indicating that he was fine.
He originally wanted to sneak up on the scarred man, but he didn't expect to meet this guy and kill himself by wiping his neck.
Li Xuan knew that this person was only more valuable if he was alive, so he hurriedly pounced and blocked the knife with the Dihong bone ring on his tail.
The Dihong Bone Ring is worthy of being a rare ancient wonder in the world, and its quality is even more indestructible, and it easily broke the ghost head knife of the scar man.
Of course, there is also the effect of two forces combined.
The man with the scar wiped his neck decisively, and when Li Xuan pounced, he also shook his tail with all his might, which caused such a result.
But no matter what, the result is always good.
Li Xuan not only stopped the man with the scar from committing suicide, but also knocked this guy unconscious, which can be regarded as a complete submission of this person.
Now that the man with the scar has been cut off by Xu Lang, he no longer has the power to resist, and it will be more convenient to interrogate him in the future.
Xu Lang was also relieved to see Li Xuanwu.
To be honest, today's operation went much smoother than he expected.
Under Xu Lang's command, the eunuchs in flowery clothes began to clean up the mess and gather the robbers who were still alive to control them.
Especially the man with scars, who is the leader of this group of robbers, is strictly guarded.
After catching so many live mouths, Xu Lang's task of going out of the palace to investigate the case this time can be said to have been completed perfectly.
Not to mention that in the camp next, they found a lot of goods that had been stolen from Ping An Trading Company.
Although a small part was destroyed by fire, a considerable part was preserved.
Moreover, these robbers were not stupid when they stacked the goods, and put the relatively high-value goods in the center, so the loss caused by Li Xuan's arson was not large.
Li Xuan personally followed to take stock of the goods, and found a black and white lotus inside.
Li Xuan believed that this should be the yin and yang attribute of heaven and earth treasure that the two managers said, the meridian and the lotus.
"Haha, it didn't take any effort to get here!"
Li Xuan held the box containing the meridian and the lotus, and greedily sniffed the fragrance of the lotus with his nose, his expression was full of satisfaction.
According to what Mr. Shang said, this meridian and Dilian are mutated natural treasures, whether it is effective or not, and how to play the effect, you need to find someone to study it, and you can't just eat it casually.
But no matter what, Meridian and Dilian have brought a glimmer of hope to Li Xuan, who is now struggling to practice, and it is always a happy thing.
Li Xuan hugged Ziwu and made love to Tillian for a while, and then put the thing back into the cargo.
This thing was originally found for him, and Li Xuan was not in a hurry to put it away now.
After all, the goods here are all things that have been stolen by Ping An Commercial Bank, and he still needs to take a good inventory, and only after Xu Lang's side successfully concludes the case can he take this treasure.
Li Xuan immediately said hello to Xu Lang and asked him to ask someone to take care of this treasure, otherwise he would be asked if he lost it.
Xu Lang had also seen how Li Xuan treasured the plant and the lotus, so he naturally didn't dare to slack off.
The mission can fail, but the treasure that Li Xuan cares about can't be lost.
Xu Lang immediately figured out the priority.
The rest of the matter is much simpler, they just need to go back with the captured robbers.
But in order to avoid the leakage of the news and the twists and turns on the way back, Xu Lang sent someone back that night to restore his life, and asked Zhao Feng to arrange someone to come over to answer.
Xu Lang couldn't be sure that they had eliminated all the robbers tonight, and it was normal for one or two sentries in the dark to slip through.
If the news had reached the masterminds behind the robbers one step in advance, it would have been inevitable that someone would have set up an ambush on their way back.
These people dare to rob the caravan of Ping An Trading House in the blue sky and daylight, who knows what else can be done.
Xu Lang's caution is also very reasonable.
It was only when it was slightly light that they finished the finishing touches.
Xu Lang did not choose to return to the capital immediately, but chose to rest in place until noon before setting off for the return trip.
In half a day, they will never be able to return to the capital.
When they came, they had two fast horses, and it took them half a day to reach Shilipo.
Now they not only have more robbers captured alive, but also more goods from Ping An Firm, and the speed is even slower.
In half a day, at most you can return to the Cross Slope Inn.
It's just that the Cross Slope Inn is crowded with people and is likely to run into trouble.
But Xu Lang could only choose to travel during the day.
Quietly rushing back to Beijing at night, although hidden, but encountering an ambush prepared by the other party, it will cause more trouble to yourself.
Regardless of whether the other party would ambush them on the way back, Xu Lang was unwilling to take this risk.
Now that the task is finally going so smoothly, he doesn't want to bury all his advantages at the last moment because of his impatience.
After all, this is the boundary of the capital, and they are not inferior to anyone in terms of strength on the surface.
Xu Lang believes that as long as he is steady, it must be the other party who is anxious, not them.
When making these decisions, Xu Lang reported his mental process to Li Xuan throughout the whole process, and also asked for his opinion.
Regarding Xu Lang's thoughts, Li Xuan has a positive attitude.
"Be vigilant when you have nothing to do, and calm when you have something."
"This Xu Lang will definitely be a talent who can do good things in the future."
After several contacts, Li Xuan gradually became impressed by Xu Lang.
In his eyes, Xu Lang is a reliable person who can do things.
