Chapter 109: Jiuli Squad
The southwest was originally one of the places where the human race rose, and as one of the ancestors of the human race, Chi You, was carried forward in the mountains of the southwest, and finally joined forces with the Xuanyuan clan from the northwest to overthrow the rule of the demon race.
The territory here was taken over by generations of Jiuli ancestors from the hands of the demon clan, and passes were being built to resist foreign enemies. These lands have been operated by Jiuli for generations, and now they have been inherited for thousands of years, and they have long since passed the righteous path or the demon clan has set foot here.
Fan Baili put away the map, chose a location, and prepared to set up a tent for the night in some unnoticed corner. In contrast, it is not as convenient as in the mountains, such as the basin. It's hard to find even a suitable soil slope or material, and it's easy to dig a dirt pit and notice something unusual.
The perennial combat career gave him enough vigilance, and suddenly he felt a chill in his heart, straightened up, faced the direction of the wind, and took a deep breath several times. At this time, the sense of smell can clearly distinguish the slightest difference.
The night breeze in each place has its own characteristics, the saltiness of the seaside, the corruption of the swamps, the humidity of the rainforest. The night breeze of the plateau has its own unique atmosphere, with the heat of the day that has not yet dissipated, mixed with the smell of various plants. However, what caught Fan Baili's attention was a wisp of strange incense, which immediately aroused his vigilance after entering his nasal cavity.
It was a rare aroma, but it was by no means emitted by ordinary people.
Fan Baili's first thought was not to escape, but to go up to see if there was a chance to attack. What can have this smell must be some kind of high-grade spice. In comparison, her own level is definitely not low, and it is an excellent target for him to strike first.
As for a beautiful woman turning into a skeleton, that's not something that needs to be considered now, after all, among the enemy and the beauty, it is still necessary to kill the enemy first. If you focus on the beauty and do something that everyone wants to do, it will inevitably be the wrong occasion.
Fan Baili hid in an inconspicuous place, silently spreading his vision far beyond ordinary people.
A group of warriors in the night, without the slightest restraint. The leader is a Dharma protector, and the weakest is at least the combat power of the Chuyun School or above. It seems that this team is not simple, far more than the difficulty required to complete the task, Fan Baili also thought about it, I don't know if there will be excess rewards.
However, in any case, it is always okay to take more spare, and it is a big deal to give it to someone else when the time comes, and it can also be exchanged for a favor and so on. The team consisted of ten people, all of whom were under the Jiuli Sect, but they were dressed as bounty hunters.
This camouflage can't escape the eyes of the masters, but it can still reduce the trouble when in the neutral zone.
It seems that they are not idle, preparing their own people to carry out hunting activities in the sphere of influence of the righteous path, and they are also preparing to let the bounty hunters take the blame.
They saw the reflection of the spring from afar, so they adjusted their direction and came this way. Where there is water, it has always been the first place of concern for all kinds of living things.
Fan Baili suddenly felt bad, although the field is large, but there is limited water place, but this is the best place.
There was no hiding place all around, and the traces he left behind had not yet been processed. Seeing that he couldn't do anything, he immediately decided to ignore them and flee towards the wilderness.
After all, he lost the opportunity to raid, and he didn't take down the entire squad at once.
The fluctuation of spiritual power brought about by running with all his strength immediately attracted the attention of the team, and all eyes were fixed on it for a while. In the eyes of several warriors, a yang-filled bright spot was quickly fleeing from the direction they were going.
"The Dharma Protector, a righteous boy, seems to have discovered us. A Jiuli envoy said.
The Dharma Protector looked grim and said with murderous intent: "It's just a small role, it's just a bounty hunter, so it's not a problem." Go to two people to catch up, first ask for information, and then kill, leaving no trace. The rest of the people went to the water's edge to replenish their water, eat something, and rest for a while before continuing their journey. ”
The two messengers immediately moved and chased after Fan Baili.
A few people relaxed by the spring, and then took out dry food to fill the hunger of the long walk.
The Dharma Protector did not rest, but was in front of the spring, contemplating something.
The female envoy walked up to the Dharma Protector and asked in a low voice, "What is our goal this time? We have traveled a lot these days, and even if we meet bounty hunters, we will let them go, so why do we have to chase after them and kill them?"
"Naturally, it is hidden. As he spoke, the Dharma Protector took out a jade plaque and poured cold qi into it. In a moment, a map appeared in front of me, and one of the areas was marked.
"Is that where we need to go? But I've been around the neighborhood and haven't seen anything remarkable. ”
"Xiaochun, there are some things that can't just look at the surface. The king's entrustment of this task to us represents absolute trust. Of course, we are not the only ones who carry out the task, but being able to enter this task has set us apart from others. Without the king's approval, he would not have been chosen for this task. ”
"But I still don't know what kind of mission we're going to do. The messenger named Xiaochun looked at the Dharma Protector with a look of anticipation, and the longing in his eyes was hard to refuse.
"Okay, I've lost to you, don't look at me with such coquettish eyes next time, this is a mission, not home!" The Protector's seemingly threatening words had no effect on the female envoy, if it weren't for the other team members not far away, I was afraid that she would pull her sleeves and be coquettish.
"Our purpose this time is to find the real altar location, which is the altar that seals Chi Youfu!" Although the Dharma Protector's voice was small, his momentum was not bad at all, and he could hear the excitement in his heart.
"Could it be that the king's announcement that he has found the altar and is in the process of cracking it is false news?" asked the messenger with a puzzled expression.
"I can't say that, that altar is indeed a part, but it can only break the seal, and it can't summon back the power it once was. At the beginning, it was only two seals that lasted for nearly 10,000 years, and there was still no change. The Protector's expression was full of nostalgia for the past.
"Big brother, is Chi You's anger really so bad?" Seeing the protector glaring at her, he stuck out his tongue and didn't speak.
"It's not just powerful, that force is so powerful that not only the enemy is afraid, but even the Jiuli people themselves feel uneasy, if it weren't for the Chiyou Holy Monarch, I'm afraid that no one would be able to surrender. The reason why the king went to such great lengths to find another sealing altar was because it contained the secret of sealing Chi Youfu again. If one day it gets out of control, it can only be sealed again. ”
