The night is like ink.

People who have not entered the mountains in the middle of the night can never imagine how thick the night in the mountains is.

Bai Cheng has lived in seclusion in Taiyi Mountain for more than ten years, and he has been walking the mountain road for a long time, and now he can see things at night, and there is no obstacle to catch up with the night road.

Lin Su is also a disciple of the Five Bucket Rice Dao. Wudou Midao dominates the side of Jiangnan, so naturally he can't guard in the mountains like Feixingmen, so he has no experience in walking mountain roads at night, and he almost fell into a ditch a few times in just a short section of mountain roads.

The humidity in the mountains is heavy, and the roads are slippery and difficult to navigate.

After a few near-deaths, Lin Su only felt that the road was too long, and there was almost no end, he was complaining in his heart, and he stepped on the air if he was not careful, and his body was about to slide when he was crooked, and his hands hurriedly grabbed around, but it was empty, and he couldn't catch anything.

He was about to call for help from Bai Cheng when he felt someone grab his wrist and quickly drag him back to the mountain road.

Lin Su also sat on the ground and said, "Brother, that old man just now is not very reliable, we ran three or four places, and we didn't see half a figure." ”

He was in a bad mood at this time, and the old man was quickly demoted to an old man.

Bai Cheng sighed lightly and said, "There is only one place left, if there is still none, it is not too late for us to go back." ”

Lin Su also shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Sacrifice your life to accompany the gentleman." ”

The two walked along the mountain road for a while, Bai Cheng suddenly turned around, stretched out his hand to pull Lin Suhuan into the miscellaneous bushes beside the road, and said in a low voice: "There is a valley not far ahead, bother Brother Lin to take a look." ”

Lin Su also nodded, held up the life-seeking disk with his left hand, and with a flick of the fingers of his right hand, a faint golden light was suddenly released on the life-seeking disk, and the golden light changed with the wind, condensing into a map, and in the middle of the map, there were two bright spots, one gold and one red, which were him and Bai Cheng.

He turned the fortune-seeking plate with one hand, dotted it on the plate with the other, and said, "I'm afraid that this place is also... Hey... It's really hiding a lot of people. ”

Bai Cheng looked along the fingers of his right hand, and saw that there were faint red dots gathered in the corner of the compass, almost twelve or thirteen, and there was a white dot of light in the middle of the red dot, which was extremely dazzling.

Bai Cheng saw the white point of light and knew that he was a master of qi training, so he couldn't help but sink in his heart, but his complexion did not change in the slightest, and he whispered to Lin Su: "Brother Lin wait for a while, and the younger brother will go back when he goes." ”

Lin Su also asked him to leave, stretched out his hand to hold him, and said in a low voice, "Are you sure you want to do it tonight?

Bai Cheng sighed and said: "Liu Qingshan suddenly led me out tonight, that is, he has already found out that the situation is wrong, and plans to stabilize me first, if he doesn't do it tonight, I'm afraid that he will transfer people away tomorrow." ”

Lin Su also asked, "Is my brother planning to go on a killing spree?"

Bai Cheng's eyes were cold, and he said: "People are in the rivers and lakes, and they can't help themselves. ”

Lin Su also muttered: "There are many opponents, and there is an ambush for a long time, is my brother sure?"

Bai Cheng said: "When it comes to the end, you have to be bold, and the little brother can only give it a try." ”

Lin Su pondered for a moment and said, "In this case, it is better to give my brother a chance and return this favor." After a while, I urged Xiao Hei to do it, and my brother assisted from the side. ”

Bai Cheng was about to speak, but Lin Su stopped him.

Lin Su also shook his wrist, and the cold iron bracelet in his hand fell to the ground. As he recited the mantra, the cold iron bracelet shook slightly, emitting a faint blue light, and then his body soared, turning into a steel python.

Lin Su also said a few words to the giant python, and then waved his palm. The python nodded at him, its body swaying, its tail wagging, and swimming into the darkness.

Although the terrain of Taiyi Mountain is wide, there are not many valleys that can ambush people.

To ambush people, you first need to have water, and food can be transported or stored, but water is absolutely impossible, so you can only take it on the spot. Therefore, the men must be ambushed near the water source, and this alone excludes ninety percent of the locations in the mountains.

In addition to the water source, there should also be easy roads, at least two or three roads to facilitate access. Otherwise, if there is only one mountain pass, the enemy can trap the people in the valley with just one wall in the mountain pass.

In addition, there is also a need for a commanding height, or outside the valley, or on the cliffs on both sides, no matter where it is, there must always be a place where you can have a bird's-eye view of all directions, otherwise the enemy will be killed in front of you, and the people in the valley will still be in a daze, and they will die in vain.

The valley in front of him, sandwiched between two mountains, had been there once a few years ago.

There is a mountain spring in the valley, which flows day and night, which is enough to solve the problem of drinking water. There is a small road in the front of the valley, sandwiched between two stone walls, the mountain is thousands of feet high, the road is only three feet wide, it can be said that a man is a man who can not open it. There are several trails at the back of the valley, all of which lead to deep mountains and dense forests, and if you can't resist them, you can only follow the trails to escape, and it will be difficult to follow them.

Best of all, there is a winding path in the middle of the valley that leads to a flat area on a cliff, which is the best vantage point for an unobstructed view of all sides.

The only way to break into the valley is the trail at the mouth of the valley. Thinking about Baicheng, it is also the third watch in the middle of the night at this time, and the lookout point on the cliff is naturally not needed, as long as the people inside are not stupid, they will arrange a competent master to ambush here.

The Xuantian Wujin Python walked in front of it, zigzags along the mountain road, but the speed was not slow at all, and the most strange thing was that it was obviously made of stainless steel, but it did not make a sound when it swam, which alone surprised Bai Cheng.

The giant python is in front, Baicheng is behind, a python and a person, meandering forward.

While he was sneaking, Bai Cheng suddenly heard the sound of breathing dozens of feet away, and he was short at the moment and shrank behind a big tree.

Bai Cheng's reaction was extremely sensitive, and the giant python was not bad at all, almost at the same time as him, he found someone in ambush in front of him, and his body shrank and jumped at the moment, clinging to the stone wall next to the road, and slid up silently.

The mountain wall is steep and almost vertical, in Bai Cheng's opinion, it is impossible to gain a foothold, but for the giant python, the stone wall is uneven enough to survive, and the seemingly steep mountain wall is just a thoroughfare.

The python crawled straight up along the mountain wall, climbed about two zhang high, and then turned its head and swam in the direction of the mountain pass.

Dozens of zhang away, Bai Cheng poked his head out slightly from behind the tree, and looked at the mountain pass, he practiced the "Thunder Puhua All Things Life and Death Sutra" successfully, seeing the night as day, although far away, he could see it clearly.

In ambush at the pass was a thin man, he was close to the branch of a large tree, wearing a black nocturnal soft armor, his whole body was tightly wrapped, only a pair of eyes were exposed, the sound of breathing was almost inaudible, and his body shook from time to time in a very small amplitude, as if he was always ready to deal with a surprise attack, based on this alone, Bai Cheng could determine that he was a master of secret agents like no other.

Although the agent was vigilant, his eyes were fixed on the mountain path, and he was not in the slightest prepared for an attack from above.

The python swam along the stone wall to the top of the big tree, but did not attack immediately, but straightened its upper body, left the stone wall, climbed the main trunk of the big tree, and then followed the trunk and silently went downstream.
