Chapter 595: Poisonous Tree
The Hun scout Yunyun was completely Xiao Qianli's casual response.
Since then, more than 100 miles to the north have been deserted, and as far as the eye can see, there are all large wastelands, and there is no end in sight.
This is the buffer zone of the border between the two sides, whether it is the Zhenbei army or the Xiongnu elite cavalry will not be deployed here, the terrain is open, unobstructed, if there is a war, both sides have a hundred ways to easily turn this place into a dead land.
Xiao Qianli flew all the way through the vast wasteland on the eagle, and only when the sun was western, a dark shadow appeared on the distant horizon.
It is a vast forest with shades that shade the sky and the sun. Seeing the scene in the distance, Xiao Qianli immediately raised his height.
Where there is dense forest, there must be a water source, and there is a high probability that a large tribe will appear. If you fly too low today, it will be easy to be discovered by the other party.
But to Xiao Qianli's surprise, he flew around the dense forest, and he had already flown to the end, but he still didn't see any trace of the tribe's existence.
To the east of the forest, there is a turquoise pool, the water waves are like mirrors, and the breeze ripples in layers. Xiao Qianli thought about it for a while, controlled the giant eagle to fall to the ground, looked at the water's edge for a while, and then found a piece of white ground and sat down.
went to the hinterland of the Xiongnu, except for the words "act when the opportunity arises", Xiao Qianli had almost no clue. Aside from a general direction, he didn't actually figure out exactly how to act.
Tangjiabao's huge intelligence system has brought Xiao Qianli a general enemy situation, and he will not be blinded by two eyes, but if he wants to find a feasible way to avoid Huerduwei from retaliating, Xiao Qianli has not thought of any good way now.
"Is it really going to be a 10,000 army to take the head of the general from it?" Thinking of this, Xiao Qianli couldn't help but smile dumbly.
Not to mention what kind of character Zuo Xianwang is, just the elite soldiers and strong generals under his command, King Gu Li, the general, the great captain, the big danghu, and the Gudu Marquis, "unless congenital must not be a general", it is enough to trap Xiao Qianli alive. Not to mention that King Zuo Xian originally had a superb innate high-level cultivation - to be one of the two kings of the Huns, second only to Da Shan Yu, how could he be an ordinary person?
"In terms of Tang Sect intelligence, it is clear that Hu Erdu Wei is good at external martial arts, and he can practice external skills to the realm equivalent to the innate high level, so you can imagine how powerful it is? Even if the four major sword weapons are dispatched, I am afraid that he will not be able to kill him easily. If I am besieged and surrounded by thousands of troops, how can I kill this man?"
"If the seven innate beings of the Pure Yang Palace are dispatched at the same time, there may be a chance to win......
As soon as this idea came to mind, Xiao Qianli quickly dispelled it. He worked so hard to finally build a poor and white Pure Yang Palace to this extent, and every disciple took countless painstaking efforts to create, and it would be heartbreaking to lose half of the blood, not to mention throwing the Seven Great Innate into the killing array in one go?
In the final analysis, Xiao Qianli dared to enter the hinterland of the Xiongnu with a single sword, in fact, he relied on his ability to come and go, except for the Mingjiao and Tangmen with profound backgrounds, there is no force in the world that can intercept and kill him in the air. Even if the golden eagle Huo'er had been sent back to Kunlun Mountain, the power of the giant eagle alone was enough to make him advance and retreat freely.
Thinking of this, he sighed softly, half-squatted on the edge of the pool, picked up cold water and washed his face, suddenly slightly stunned, and turned his head to look at the dense forest.
"This place...... Seems odd?"
He stood up, hesitated, and walked toward the edge of the forest.
It's so quiet!
Such a huge woodland, there are no people nearby, and it can be said that it is remote, but there is not even the slightest song of birds and insects, which is very strange.
Walking on the thick dead branches and leaves, Xiao Qianli walked into the dense forest, only to find that the trees here are exceptionally thick, the trunk is straight, smooth, and the huge crown and branches and leaves extend above the trunk, expanding in all directions, intertwined with the branches and leaves of other giant trees, deep in the branches and leaves, dark and quiet.
But in addition to countless trees, there are no insects and birds, not even ants, and the huge dense forest is extremely deep and creepy.
Xiao Qianli frowned, pulled out the pure Jun sword with his backhand, and as soon as the sword light was displayed, a large piece of bark broke from it, and the fracture was as smooth as a mirror, but the green wooden core was revealed inside, and a pungent breath suddenly spread.
"It's a poisonous tree, no wonder there isn't half a living thing. Xiao Qianli was taken aback, so many trees containing poison were hidden here, this was not good news.
He took a few steps inside, found nothing, and was about to exit the same way, when suddenly his eyes fell on the ground and he suddenly stopped.
It was a broken dead branch, but it was the thickness of a finger, and it was half cut into the soil and half of it, so it didn't seem to be anything special.
But—
Xiao Qianli gently picked up the dead branches, and a shallow footprint appeared on the soil.
"Someone has gone in from here, and there is more than one!"
He looked down and searched for a moment, brushed aside the dead branches and leaves on the ground, and sure enough, he saw countless messy footprints, extending along the forest to the depths, and looking at the traces of footprints, it had been about three or five days.
Xiao Qian moved, quietly ordered in his consciousness, and ordered the giant eagle to take off, flying above the canopy in the direction of the footprints, and exploring the details all the way.
Through the mysterious connection with the giant eagle, Xiao Qianli soon "saw" that in the depths of the dense forest, there was a small waterhole, and there were no trees on the edge of the waterhole, but there were countless figures constantly shaking. Some people clearly saw the giant eagle of the divine horse flying by, but they didn't care.
"Hmph!" Xiao Qianli is a master of art and bold, and he can just take a step at the moment.
After walking for a few miles, he vaguely heard a voice coming, Xiao Qianli kept an eye on it, and at the moment he used the trees to hide and slowly touched it over there.
Thankfully, the huge canopy of trees blocked out the light, and even though the sun had not yet set, the forest was pitch black. Taking advantage of the geographical advantage, Xiao Qianli gradually approached the direction where the giant eagle "saw", poked his head out from behind a big tree, stared at it, and the scene in front of him suddenly made his blood almost coagulate.
There are hundreds of people working in an orderly manner in front of them, dozens of camp tents of all sizes are scattered around the waterhole, and dozens of Hun soldiers in leather armor are patrolling around, all holding weapons and staring at these ragged laborers.
Driven by whips and swords, these laborers cut down these poisonous trees with large saws, and some craftsmen sawed them into thin strips, packed them and stacked them on top of each other, looking at the piles of wood piled up by the waterhole, I am afraid that there are no less than hundreds of thousands.
"Looking at the specifications and styles of that wooden strip, it is clearly used to make arrows! I don't know how many have been made, and how many batches are this?" Xiao Qian was furious, if these hundreds of thousands of arrows were dropped on the border battlefield, the Zhenbei Army would inevitably suffer a big loss.
He was secretly thinking in his heart, when suddenly a craftsman who was sawing wood snorted, and fell to the ground, his face turned blue, and he clearly looked poisoned. Two soldiers rushed over with knives, one of them skillfully pried open his mouth, and the other took a bag of water from the waterhole, poured it into his mouth, and after a while, only to hear the craftsman spit out a burst of yellow-green liquid, and he was able to move slowly.
"Do you want to do it without you die?" a soldier whipped the craftsman with a whipped and a shudder, and the man who had beaten him trembled all over, got up with difficulty, and dragged over the saw with shaking, and continued to work.
"No wonder they put the workshop here, first, to hide people's eyes, and second, this pool of water can detoxify the poison of trees!"
Xiao Qianli understood a little, stood up straight at the moment, and strode out. (https:)
