Chapter 40: Night Attack

There's a reason why Red Mang doesn't choose to get his hands dirty at this initial time.

The Red Mang Demon Hunter Group mainly relies on plundering the merchant groups to maintain their foundation, they don't know herbs and they don't know how to collect medicines, and now they obviously don't have any oil and water to rob. After a few days, the Xi Medicine Hall will be different after collecting the medicine, not only can you grab a large number of precious and valuable medicinal materials, but you can also plunder everyone, and the harvest will naturally be different.

For the first few days, they were safe for the time beingโ€”except for the brutes in Pomegranate Mountain. The level of brute beasts in Pomegranate Mountain is generally not high, almost all of them are around the triple heaven of the threshing period, and there are basically no high-level brute beasts, so these people can naturally cope with it.

With the gradual expansion of the scope of medicine collection, the pharmacist of Xi Yaotang went deep into the hinterland of Pomegranate Mountain for hundreds of miles, and if he continued to advance, he would pass through this mountain and enter the more dangerous blood-colored wilderness.

"Gather the team and clean up the herbs. โ€

After traveling some distance again, the girl's Qingyue voice suddenly sounded in the medicine collection team.

At this moment, it is getting late, and spending the night in the Pomegranate Mountain is certainly not a wise decision, and these pharmacists in Xi Yaotang are not monks, most of them do not know martial arts, and their physical strength is especially weak, and it is absolutely stupid to walk the mountain road in the dark. Moreover, the medicinal materials are almost collected, enough to maintain the annual supply of Xi Yaotang, and there are more than a dozen high-grade medicinal materials and a few rare plants, which cannot be lost. In case he falls off the cliff, let alone the medicinal materials, even the pharmacist will have to fall to the bones, and the Xi Medicine Hall cannot afford to lose it.

After more than a dozen pharmacists counted for nearly an hour, the collected medicinal materials were cleaned up, and dozens of bags were packed. Xi Xiaolian waved his sleeves, immediately put a few of the packages of medicinal herbs into the storage bag, and lightly ordered: "Find a high ground and camp to rest." Others were on standby. โ€

When the monks saw that Fairy Xi waved his sleeves, so many herbs disappeared, and they knew that most of them were the rumored storage magic weapons, and they all showed envy. There are not many magic weapons that can store things, and the price is so high that it is desperate, and only people like Miss Xi Yaotang can use it. In addition to envy, there is no extraordinariness to think, if anyone dares to show the slightest covetousness, I am afraid that they can be directly killed to death by the saliva of the monks of Taolin City, and you dare to think about the things of Fairy Xi, it is really too long.

Hearing Fairy Xi's command, the guards of Xi Medicine Hall immediately walked out of a few people, looked around, chose a slightly higher position, and began to clear weeds and tidy up the ground.

The rest of the monks stood guard under the high ground for the camp that had been set up in the center. Some rested against the stones, some sat around and laughed, and some gathered to play dice.

In the middle of the night, there is silence, only the cry of beasts, and the pomegranate mountain is shrouded in the breath of a wilderness.

The place Du Mu chose was a big tree next to the high ground, just enough to see the camp situation clearly, at this time he closed his eyes slightly and was studying on his own.

The mind is calm, falling into emptiness, and going to sense the breath of the grass and trees in the pomegranate mountain.

"Du Mu, can you breathe? โ€

In my ears, I seemed to think of Senior Sister Huo'er's preaching again.

"Everything has to breathe. โ€

"Trees have to breathe, if they don't breathe, trees will die, flowers and plants have to breathe, if they don't breathe, flowers will wither, grass will wither, rivers have to breathe, if they don't breathe, rivers will spoil, they will rot and dry up, mountains and rivers have to breathe ......"

Of course people have to breathe, but this breath is no longer suitable for me, Du Mu smiled helplessly. The Law of All Creatures is the introductory technique of the Jianhua Sect, and Du Mu has also realized a lot of benefits from it, but because of his own physique, the help of this Immortal Life to improve his cultivation is no longer very obvious.

Suddenly, there was a slight tremor on the body of the tree under his buttocks, and this vibration was as subtle as an ant falling on the leaves, if he hadn't been in meditation at the moment, the three hundred and sixty points were feeling the breath of all things, it was really difficult to detect and find.

Du Mu sensed it carefully for a while, and there didn't seem to be any brute beasts around. He jumped down, fell to the ground, put his right ear to the ground, and listened quietly.

"Is it my delusion?"

This series of actions, I didn't hear anything unusual, and I couldn't help but doubt myself. However, he quickly found the answer for himself: in this pomegranate mountain, brute beasts are infested, and it is normal for large brute beasts to pass by.

It was only in the next moment that his face changed.

Feeling the tremor of his hands, his ears pressed to the ground again, and this time, he was finally sure.

Stomp ......

In the distance, a group of guys were running fast. Those guys could be a bunch of brutes, or a bunch of wild horses, or of course, a bunch of knights.

Du Mu turned over the tree and was about to shout a warning, but when he saw a white shadow in the camp tent, Xi Xiaolian had already flashed out of the tent, took out a silver whistle in his hand, put it in his mouth, and pursed his lips to blow it.

Tick, tick......

A hurried whistle suddenly sounded under the two red lips.

"Enemy attack, enemy attack!"

In an instant, at the top of the mountain and at the foot of the mountain, there was a loud noise.

However, the chaos lasted only a short moment before it quickly quieted down. After all, these are all monks with good strength, and the guards of Xi Yao Hall are also well-trained, and they will not mess with themselves. The two sides quickly finished blocking and closed together. There were more than one hundred and thirty people, except for the dozen or so pharmacists, all of whom were armed with weapons and were ready for battle.

At this moment, the smoke and dust were billowing on the mountain road ahead, and a large group of people and horses were already galloping wildly. At a cursory glance, there were about 200 horsemen, all wrapped in red scarves, holding blood-colored spears, and their faces were full of fierceness.

"It's the Red Mang Demon Hunters. โ€

On the top of the mountain, someone screamed in shock. The situation that Xi Yaotang didn't want to see the most still happened.

I have long known that there are three thousand miles of peach forest on the opposite side of Pomegranate Mountain, which is entrenched in a group of demon hunters, nominally for demon hunting, but in fact it is a robbery, coming and going like electricity and wind, specializing in plundering, many people originally did not believe it, even if some people knew about it, they mostly disagreed, and felt that it had nothing to do with themselves, because Pomegranate Mountain is steep, and the cliffs and deep valleys are everywhere, and no matter how powerful the group of red mangs is, it is impossible to come here through the mountains and mountains, unless the other party can fly, otherwise there is nothing to fear. It wasn't until they saw it at this moment that they finally knew that they still underestimated this group of red mangs. More than 200 rides, all the way to the wind, such as walking on the ground, without the slightest fatigue, not to mention their own strength, on this hand riding skills, the people present are beyond reach.

"Rest assured, we occupy a favorable location, and no matter how many red mangs there are, it is impossible to come on horseback. โ€

To tell the truth, when he first saw more than two hundred horsemen appear, Xi Xiaolian also had a short period of emotion, if it is placed on flat ground, the other party only needs an impact, this side can collapse and disperse, fortunately, his own side has an advantage, and the opponent's cavalry advantage is gone, so there is nothing to fear. The more this time, the more she must be calm and absolutely not messy.

When the seventy or eighty monks heard this, they all fell silent. looked at the fairy in white in the field together, waiting for instructions.

Nima, what an idiot girl, you think you are condescending to occupy the favorable terrain, but you don't know that you have fallen into the place of death, as long as those red mangs put a fire, see how you end.

"Fairy Xi, I'm afraid this is not appropriate, on the surface we do occupy the terrain, it seems that the situation is in our favor, but as long as the other party uses fire attack, we will fall into passivity. Du Mu finally couldn't help it and stood up to remind the other party.

Xi Xiaolian frowned, and was about to angrily reprimand him for bewitching the crowd and disturbing people's hearts, at this time, more than two hundred horsemen had stopped at the foot of the mountain, only to hear one of them shouting at the top of his voice: "Listen, the people of Xi Yaotang listen, surrender quickly, hand over the medicinal materials, and the leader of my family can also let you live, otherwise it will annoy the third master of my family and burn you." โ€

Everyone changed color in unison.

Fairy Xi glared at Du Mu angrily, this bastard is really a crow's mouth.
