Chapter 592: Turning the sword away from the mountain

Far.

Xicang Road.

Days of wind and rain, sudden and dazed, hit the blue flowers, frustrated the flowers and plants, but also woke up the dream, and cooled the hot heart.

After early morning, go alone to the Xicang mountain forest, the clouds and mist are shrouded, and the forest is deep and quiet. Standing on the mountainside and looking far away, the morning light has dimmed, and the faint figure is like an ant creeping between the grass and fields, moving slowly. The light clouds parade under the feet, thin, through which you can see the cold light hidden in the mountains and forests. At this time, another layer of thin veil floated in the distant sky, covering the top of the mountain, and the mountain forest seemed so ethereal. If your heart is quiet at this moment, you will always feel that there is something missing. It seems that there is one less person who turns his hands and clouds and rains his hands, and he can plot the army with his mouth...

"Qu Long finally can't help but make a move?"

"The national examination is a battlefield of life and death, how can others be touched by the way of fame?"

"Two thousand people, the top combat power is pouring out, Tang Chuan is going to tear his face this time. ”

"How are we good?"

"Let's wait for the times to change, Xia Xun may have a chance if we are not here. ”

"I have already made an agreement with the people of Lonely Eagle Peak and Luoyan Prefecture that if they can attack them in groups, they will not show mercy. ”

"But Mo Xian..."

"Heh, what's so scary about just being idle?"

"The so-called solitary yin does not grow, and the solitary yang does not grow. Without Mo Yan's cooperation, Mo Xian is undefeated even if he has King Kong, and the strongest is only to exert the peak cultivation of the Apocalypse. Sixteen of the Apocalypse Realms joined forces to fight, and as long as he was on guard, he was helpless. ”

“......”

On the side of the grain road, wild grasses are overgrown, and vines and orchids are dense.

The sparse centaurs were scattered all around, and it was impossible to tell which one was the other from their clothing.

Since the golden bell of the heavenly test has been ringing six times so far, the square inch examination room has been reduced by several times, and the diameter of the square circle is only less than 8,000 miles. And the Xicang Road, where grain is delivered, is only a few thousand miles away. In other words, when the eighth golden bell rings, there will be no outside food in the examination room. That was the beginning of a real war...

Food is the foundation of the growth of all things, and it is the beginning of human desire. Many forces, aware of the seriousness of the problem, have already begun to reduce the use of grain and grass, and to raise cattle, sheep and livestock in captivity for the final decisive battle. And for some large forces, it is not advisable to go on a diet and raise livestock, because they need too much food. Increasing income and reducing expenditure will inevitably lead to people's turmoil, and the time required to raise livestock in captivity is too long, and even more so that far water cannot save the fire, so it is advisable to occupy the mountains and grab food.

Therefore, at this stage of the national examination, in the examination rooms on the southeast and north sides of the Fangcun Mountains, there are already many forces fighting for a mouthful of food. There is only a West Examination Room, which is a special case. Since the royal family withdrew from the West Examination Room, there were only two tigers left in this land. Pure Yang is entrenched in Huishan, with several miles of fertile soil and dozens of miles of mountains and forests, so there is no need to worry about food sources at all. After Xia Xun became the master of Qu Long, Qu Long's strength swelled into a behemoth, firmly grasping half of the grain and grass supply in Xicang. Therefore, the trend of one mountain and two tigers can still get along calmly. It's just that such a harmonious situation, as the decisive battle of the heavenly test approaches, there are faint signs of loosening...

Huishan is less than 2,000 miles away from the boundary of the examination room, and as long as the golden bell rings again, Chunyang will inevitably be forced to move out of the natural danger. Qu Long has a large number of men and horses, the land is barren, and the grain and grass sent in each time is rapidly decreasing, if it does not encroach on the grain quota of other forces for its own use, its logistics supply chain will inevitably be broken.

It's like a burning fire, which is gradually driving the two tigers out of their territory. But when the two tigers come down the mountain and meet, that's when the dragon fights...

Fierce tigers come out of the nest, hungry tigers take food.

When the two tigers meet, a fierce battle is coming.

This is the same feeling of many forces in the West Examination Hall.

It's just that because of the delicate relationship between Xia Xun and Yu Youran, as well as the fundamental problem of Mo Xian and Mo Yan, many people don't think that the meeting of these two tigers is either death or injury. They are more inclined to Yu Youran and Xia Xunhui to solve the contradiction skillfully again in a bloodless way. This is also what many candidates in the West Examination Room are looking forward to, because the game between the two peerless strategists and the arithmetic will inevitably be more exciting than the sword soldiers.

And now, Qu Long has taken the lead...

Xicang Road, there are countless soldiers and horses, and they occupy all parts of the mountains and jungles. Tang Chuan, Mo Xian, Muto and others led Qu Long's 2,000 soldiers to gallop thousands of miles on horseback, broke into Xicang, and then stationed troops on the main road. The news of Qu Long's thunderous movement came out as early as the first time. Therefore, the forces from all sides that came to Xicang to get grain today brought not a few people and horses, and the armor was more sophisticated than in the past. At this time, they were scattered around nervously. Several times they sent people to Qu Long's camp to negotiate, but they were all turned away. Looking at Tang Chuan's unsympathetic appearance, everyone knows that today's affairs may not be good.

"Da Da Da..."

"Tang Chuan, we should have been fooled. ”

"Flickering?"

On the main road, Lei Meng was shirtless like a big bear, carrying a big axe, and led hundreds of people and horses out of the forest path with a swagger. Looking at Tang Chuan from afar, he shouted: "I have carefully explored the radius of dozens of miles, and there are no ambushes at all. I saw a handful of guys in Jizhou, but when they saw that I was leading people to kill, they were so frightened that they turned around and ran away. I grabbed the two of them casually and asked them, but they said that there was no premeditated food robbery, and they didn't know Lian Ying and Feihe. You must have been fooled by the street rush this morning!"

"Oh..."

Lei Meng drank from afar.

Tang Chuan didn't seem surprised by this result, and just nodded politely in response. Lei Meng knew military strategy, and he vaguely felt that this thing was unusual, and there was also a taste of leaving the mountain. Seeing Tang Chuan's disapproving attitude, he couldn't help but feel strange. Because Tang Chuan has never been a reckless person, what Lei Meng can smell, Tang Chuan will definitely not be unable to smell...

"What are you?"

"Nothing. I don't, what else can I say?"

"Damn..."

"We've been transferred away from the mountain, and you're still wandering around here, are you waiting for dinner? Hurry up and transfer someone back to Qu Long!" Lei Meng strode up to Tang Chuan and reprimanded.

Tang Chuan rode on the horse and waved his hand, still disapproving, and said with confidence: "Brother Meng, don't worry. This time, 2,000 people came out, and there are more than 5,000 brothers in Qu Longli guarding it, and it will definitely be as solid as gold. And there is a single little to sit in, it must be worry-free. After the grain and grass are delivered, it is not too late for us to retrieve Qu Long. ”

"Alone in charge?"

“......”

Muto was very attentive and immediately heard a hint of clues.

Mo Xian on the side reacted a little slower, but when he heard Muto's muttering, he also saw the problem.

Mo Xian asked coldly, "What about Xia Xun and Tang Xiaotang?"

"Uh..."

Tang Chuan immediately realized that he had lost his words, but he covered it up very well. The different color disappeared slightly, and he immediately changed to a smile, and then waved his hand and replied: "Oh... He's two. Now the two of them only envy the mandarin ducks and not the immortals, and they are taking care of the cauliflower field, and they are at ease, how can they be counted on in the matter of setting up the enemy? Let's not disturb them. ”

“......”

Tang Chuan's expression was well concealed, but there was still some drift and far-fetched between his words. You can deceive others, but you can't deceive your own people. Lei Meng and Maito seemed to have guessed something, so they simply closed their mouths and looked away in silent thought.

Mo Xian has always been upright, like a sharp sword, if there is a problem, you have to figure it out, and you must not let yourself be ambiguous: "You seem to know something." ”

"I'm not... No. ”

Tang Chuan stared at each other and decisively denied: "I don't know anything." ”

The smell of talking nonsense is very obvious.

Mo Xian still doesn't know, Tang Chuan must have a ghost in his heart?

Having made up his mind, Mo Xian didn't ask any further questions, but turned his horse's head and made a gesture to turn around and leave.

Seeing this, Tang Chuan was immediately anxious: "Where are you going?!"

Mo Xian didn't stop and said coldly: "There are no ambushes here, so I will go back to Qulong." ”

"Wait!"

Tang Chuan let out a loud shout, stopped Mo Xian, and then hurriedly drove his horse to Mo Xian's side, and said softly, "You can't go." Although there are no ambushes here, our plan today is to take seventy percent of the grain and grass. This will inevitably arouse the dissatisfaction of all forces, and in the end it will inevitably lead to the use of troops. If you don't press the battle here, I'm afraid others will be unscrupulous. ”

"Yes, you just listen to Tang Chuan. ”

Lei Meng somehow suddenly changed the tone of the conversation, and actually helped Tang Chuan to make up the words: "Although we brought a lot of people today, I just investigated, and the people and horses of other forces add up to more than 4,000. If we hadn't been there, we'd probably not be able to shake the scene, so we wouldn't have suffered. You'd better stay. ”

After Lei Meng's words, Maito also said with a heartfelt foil: "Xiahou, Wulan, and Sun Wukong are all in Qulong, even if there is an enemy attack, they can resist for a long time, and we will return after taking the grain and grass, so we won't have much time." ”

“......”

Everyone is golden, and Mo has nothing to say.

But faintly, he found that things were not as simple as he thought. Serious may not be able to say it, otherwise Lei Meng and Maito will never be so easy. But at least in Qulong Mountain, there must be something unknown that is quietly happening.

Look around a little and think about it for a long time.

Mo Xian turned the horse's head again and slowly walked back to his original position...

Meanwhile...

More than 2,000 miles to the east.

There is a small quiet valley.

The trees are low, the pebbles are smooth, and the mountains are covered with rhododendrons, like a roll of bright red silk spreading out in the valley.

The green leaves are lined with red flowers, and they are beautiful and charming against the backdrop of the sun. From a distance, colorful butterflies flutter in the air. The layers of flowers are cut from pieces of red paper, and the bright purple and red colors are particularly eye-catching and moving.

"Da-da..."

The red flowers are embellished with clear shadows, and the two are resentful.

It is suspected to be lovesick blood, dripping into branches.

"It's so beautiful here. ”

"Yes, not really. ”

"It's a pity that the miles are too stingy. It's not as good as the sea of flowers you planted for peony. ”

"Don't you think I'll plant you a hundred miles of azaleas, do you?"

"Of course, how can it be fair?"

"Uh..."
