The peaks on both sides of the Jade Bottle Pass are like an open fan, stretching for more than 100 miles, connecting Jialan Pass on one side, and connecting Tiger Prison Pass on the other, the mountain peaks are towering, the cliffs stand steeply, separating Lingzhou from the Northern Wilderness.

There is a guard guarding the right side of the Jade Bottle Pass, in addition to arranging people to patrol the edge of the cliff for twelve hours without stopping, and also arranging hidden piles on the main road in the forest, any abnormal movement will be the first time to send an alarm to the Guancheng.

At three o'clock, the night was thick, and more than a dozen figures quietly reached the bottom of the cliff under the cover of the night.

Three of them climbed the steep cliff like a civet cat, and the other twelve climbed steadily upward, although they moved a little slower.

Suddenly, the three people who went up stopped, lying on the cliff like a gecko, and more than a dozen people below also stopped climbing at the same time, it turned out that at this time there was a team of Great Xia soldiers passing by, and when this group of people went away, the people below began to climb upwards again.

After a while, the three of them arrived at the top of the cliff, hid behind a big rock, and after waiting for another team of Great Xia soldiers to pass, one of them said: "Senior Brother Wu, is Senior Brother Tang too cautious, just a few small soldiers, can you use such a lot of trouble?"

"Senior Brother Yun, of course a few small soldiers are not to worry, but let's be careful, you know the strength of Senior Brother He, and he is definitely not under you and me, even he is planted here, it can be seen that the other party is not easy to match. ”

"What Senior Brother Tang said is that let's just assist those northern barbarian soldiers, there is no need to rush to the front, wait for them to come up. "Wu Xingyu Road.

Yun Xiang pursed his mouth, although his hands were itchy and unbearable, he could only calm down and wait.

After a short while, the twelve people behind him climbed the mountain peak one after another, all of them were dressed in black armor, holding scimitars, and their eyes all revealed a strong killing intent.

One of them asked, "How many immortal masters, how is the situation on the other side?"

Wu Xingyu had already used his divine sense to probe the nearby fifty zhang area, pointed to a few places and said, "There is a person in ambush in those places, and there will be a team of ten Great Xia soldiers patrolling here about every incense stick. ”

The man memorized a few locations clearly, and then returned to the team, and after a while, the twelve people suddenly separated, and in groups of three, quietly sneaked to the location of the hidden stake arranged by the Great Xia soldiers.

Seeing that the people in the dark pile were still in the dark, and did not know that danger was about to befall him, suddenly several 'poof, puff, puff' sounds broke through the air, and a few stones hit the front of the black-armored people who were sneaking towards the dark stake.

At this time, everything was quiet, and these sounds undoubtedly fell on the hearts of both sides like thunder, and the people in the dark pile immediately found the black armor man sneaking over, and the black armor person knew that the target was exposed, so he no longer had any scruples and rushed to the dark pile.

Concealed piles are usually placed in hidden places: in trees, or in caves, and there will be some defenses. The Great Xia soldiers in the first hidden pile immediately attacked, and the crossbow arrows shot at the opposite side with a fierce wind, the distance between the two sides was only a few zhang away, and the speed of the crossbow arrows was so fast that one arrow hit a black-armored guard.

In addition to this, they blew their whistles at the same time, and in an instant the shrill sound of several whistles resounded throughout the woods.

Wu Xingyu secretly screamed badly, and now he didn't need to sense his divine sense, and two figures had already appeared in his field of vision.

"You go and stop the Great Xia soldiers, and these two will be handed over to me. When Wu Xingyu's voice fell, the person was already five zhang away.

Tang Zhongnian and Yun Xiang were not slow to react, and they stretched out their bodies and rushed towards a group of Xia soldiers who were coming this way.

Xie Sanyi glanced at Wu Xingyu on the other side and said, "Senior Brother Luo, you go and help those people, leave this person to me." ”

Luo Kun nodded and walked towards Tang Zhongnian and Yun Xiang, the person who came was also a monk of the ninth layer of the Qi Refining Period, and only Xie Sanyi could deal with it.

Wu Xingyu didn't intercept Luo Kun, because Xie Sanyi had already drawn his sword.

The sword light is like a golden wheel, dazzling, illuminating the night sky.

Wu Xingyu was taken aback, this is the third time he has seen Jin Xing swordsmanship to such an extent in his life, the first two times are the two senior brothers in the sect who practice metal exercises, those two are inner disciples, rarely go out, this is the first time to see a monk who can cultivate Jin Xing swordsmanship to such a level outside.

His own cultivation is the earth attribute exercise, and he thinks that he is by no means an opponent, and he has cowardice in his heart, and he is not so casual with the sword, but it is in line with the original intention of his earth practice swordsmanship, and he waved a thick yellow halo in front of him, and forcibly withstood the attack of the golden light wheel.

On the other side, Luo Kun, with the cooperation of ten soldiers, can withstand Tang Zhongnian and Yun Xiang, and the spear formation of ten Great Xia soldiers is difficult to fight against Tang Zhongnian and Yun Xiang alone, but after cooperating with Luo Kun, they complement each other.

At this time, the situation on the other side also entered the white heat, and the Great Xia soldiers who heard the warning rushed from all directions, and fought with the remaining nine black armor people, although the number of Great Xia soldiers was two or three times larger, but they did not have the upper hand, and there were seven or eight more corpses on the ground in just a moment.

However, the three monks and those black-armored people knew that this operation was a failure, and more Great Xia soldiers would arrive next, so they began to retreat backwards in a rhythmic manner.

Xie Sanyi didn't deliberately leave it difficult for Wu Xingyu, Wei Wuxian explained that he only needed to hold on, he didn't say that he had to kill the other party, not to mention that it was not so easy to kill a ninth-level monk in the Qi refining period.

In the end, the three Northern Barbarian monks fled from the bottom of the cliff with the remaining six black-armored people, and both sides of this battle were damaged, and it was impossible to say who won and who lost, but if Wei Wuxian did not arrange for Xie Sanyi and Luo Kun to keep an eye on them, the consequences would be worrying.

For this reason, Tong Danian, the commander in charge of guarding here, specially went to the top of the gate city to express his gratitude to Wei Wuxian.

Feng Xian said with a smile: "Brother Wei, as you expected, those Northern Barbarians really came to steal the camp. He glanced at Ma Lao San and the others enviously, then shook his head and left.

Wei Wuxian watched him leave, still thinking about the Northern Barbarian stealing camp at night, and somehow he always had a feeling of unsteadiness in his heart, but he didn't know where the problem was.

Ma Laosan asked, "What, is there anything wrong?"

Wei Wuxian shook his head, he didn't want to affect them because of his mood, and said, "No, you guys rest first, I'll be in charge of the second half of the night." ”

"Then let's go up and rest, and say hello when we have something. ”

Wei Wuxian waited for Ma Laosan and a few people to go upstairs to rest, first inspected the city, and told the soldiers on duty not to be careless, and then returned to the first floor of the city tower and sat down cross-legged.

After a quarter of an hour, he calmed down and slowly remembered everything that had happened from yesterday to now.

The Northern Barbarians took the Jade Bottle Pass to test the newly built trebuchet, and then smashed the Jialan Pass with two hundred trebuchets, etc., he suddenly knew why he had been feeling wrong, how similar the Northern Barbarians' stealing camp tonight was to the catapult drill during the day yesterday, they were all anticlimactic, judging from what Tong Danian said: the other party did not have a determination to take it down.

If the guess is correct, the Northern Barbarians' bigger operation is about to begin, where will they start, is it Guancheng or the mountain on the left?

Wei Wuxian quickly deduced all kinds of possibilities in his mind, and after a while, he opened his eyes suddenly, and with a flash of light in his eyes, he quickly got up from the ground and headed upstairs.
