Chapter 407: Espionage (3)
After going around from outside the city for most of the time, he finally returned to the outside of the Lingwen Branch. Ranwen? ?? .?r?a?n?? e?n 'net was still some distance away from the courtyard of the branch, only to hear two howls, the little earth dog bean had already rushed out of the high ground with joy, and when he came to the front, he jumped to the ground and threw himself into Ruan Zun's arms.
"Beans, I haven't seen you for more than half a month, you've lost a lot of weight. Ruan Zun picked up the little guy distressedly and looked at it carefully, he was really thin, but he also grew up, and the whole circle was bigger.
At this time, Dai Zong followed, saw Ruan Zun from a distance, was overjoyed, and ran to the front in three steps and two steps, Shi Li said: "Young master, you are back!" Luan Tingyu also followed behind.
"Come back in a hurry, and go back right away. Ruan Zun said, "Is the branch alright?"
"Young master, rest assured, everything is fine. Luan Tingyu replied.
"Alright, I'll come back and get something, and I'll take the beans and I'll leave right away. Ruan Zun said, and said to Cheng Hui and the others: "You wait for me for a while." ”
Cheng Hui said: "Go and come back quickly, you can't delay for too long." ”
Ruan Zun hurriedly broke into the branch, first came to the small building of the Lingwen Branch, and said to Du Chong, who was stunned: "Hurry up, as quickly as possible, bring me all the news about Erlong Mountain that I have recently collected!"
Seeing him so nervous, Du Chong didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly went to collect and sort it out in person. After a while, he sent a large box of all kinds of materials to Ruan Zun, "Young master, it's all here." ”
Ruan Zun quickly put the box into the Acceptance Ring, and then strode into the basement and met Ruan Zhen, who was now renamed Ling Zhen. This place is now very secretive, and no one other than Luan Tingyu and Dai Zong can enter it at all.
"Brother Ling, time is pressing, I am going to Erlong Mountain for a period of time recently, and I may use some Forget Worry Flowers and Worry Relief Fruits, give me as many as I have now. ”
Ling Zhen glanced at him and kicked over a wooden box, "It's all inside." Then, I went back to working on a drawing.
When I opened the wooden box, I saw that there were about 20 pieces of the newly made Forget Worry Flower and the Worry Relief Fruit. I can't help but be overjoyed, and all of them are included in the payment ring. Turning around to leave, he suddenly remembered something, and said to Ling Zhen apologetically: "Brother Ling, I'm really sorry, there have been too many things recently, and my personal energy is limited, boy, I may have to slow down for you to clear up your grievances." ”
"There's no hurry. Ling Zhen said lightly, "I heard what Dai Zong said, you joined the Young Army, and in the army, you must pay attention to the rules. My business, don't worry, I'm doing well here now, you can just take care of your own business. ”
He is a madman who studies firearms, and with the ideas and new gunpowder provided by Ruan Zun, it is like opening the door to a new world for him, in which he has become addicted and forgetful.
Ruan Zun still smiled apologetically at him and took his leave.
The group said goodbye to the Lingwen Branch, took the beans, and marched to the northern foot of Erlong Mountain. Half a day later, they entered the originally planned route.
It was the height of summer, the heat of the Northland. The weather was hot, and their march was not fast.
"You say, where are the grandchildren of those few years now?" Cheng Hui couldn't help but say, "These grandchildren don't even have a good breakfast in order to grab credit." ”
"Whatever. Ma Chaoyuan said, "Anyway, just like Ruan Zun said, running fast may not be able to get useful news, we are not in a hurry." ”
From the southwest to the northeast, you will arrive at the northern foot of Erlong Mountain. By this time it was already afternoon.
Specifically, Erlong Mountain can be divided into two opposite mountains, one Dalong Mountain and one Erlong Mountain, the two mountains meander, just like two giant dragons lying opposite each other, and the locals are collectively called Erlong Mountain. As for why it is not collectively called Dalong Mountain, it is because Baozhu Temple was built on the place where the dragon head of Erlong Mountain is located. Due to the miracles in the history of Baozhu Temple, the locals believe that the feng shui of Erlong Mountain is much stronger than that of Dalong Mountain.
Therefore, the status of Erlong Mountain is stronger than that of Dalong Mountain.
Ruan Zun unfolded a detailed map of Erlong Mountain, observing the location of the party and the topographical trend of the entire Erlong Mountain. Judging from the map, they are now more than 40 miles away from the northwest periphery of Dalong Mountain.
"Where did this map come from?" Cheng Hui leaned over with interest.
"Bought it from the locals. Ruan Zun said casually.
"It's quite detailed. Li Yufeng said, "It's much better than the one I've seen in the command tent." If nothing else, if we return from this trip in vain, it will be a small credit just to hand over this map. ”
"You're crazy about credit in your head. Ruan Zun scolded with a smile.
The group was walking along the avenue, and not long after, a military camp appeared in front of them. The barracks guarded the main road, set up checkpoints, and checked passers-by to prevent bandits from mixing in with the crowd. At the same time, it was also in order to deal with the bandits of Erlong Mountain who went down the mountain.
There were more than a dozen officers and soldiers at the checkpoint constantly interrogating pedestrians. When Ruan Zun and the others arrived in front of them, they saw that the five of them were all high-level spirit masters, and these mortal officers and soldiers were in awe: "Fellow spirit scholars, further south, it is the boundary of Erlong Mountain. In order to avoid the bandits of Erlong Mountain, please provide a guide or proof of identity. ”
Cheng Hui handed over an identity certificate, which was written on the identity of the demon hunting team hired by the Colosseum in Qingzhou City. This was really issued by the Colosseum of Qingzhou City, and let the people of the Demon Suppression Hall take it with them in case of emergency. After all, the people of the Demon Suppression Hall often carry out some secret missions, and sometimes they cannot disclose their true identities.
"It turned out to be the Demon Hunter of the Colosseum. "Those officers and soldiers have more respect.
An officer and soldier said: "I have also gone to see several Colosseum battles this year, and they are really wonderful! Unfortunately, the entrance fee to the Colosseum is too expensive!"
"If we hunt the monster back, we will definitely open your eyes when we pass by here. Cheng Hui said with a smile.
"Say it!" The officers and men at these checkpoints were overjoyed and waved their hands to let go.
The group waited for a while to walk forward, and the sound of horses' hooves behind them was loud, and then two officers and soldiers chased after them.
"Boss, it's not good. Zhang Kai said to Cheng Hui, "They have seen through our fake identity." ”
"Don't panic, let's see what's going on. Cheng Hui calmed down.
Two officers and soldiers came to them and said to them, "A few of them are demon hunters! Our General Huang has an invitation and has something to entrust!" As he spoke, he pointed to the largest tent in the barracks near the main road.
"General Huang, do we know him?" Cheng Hui frowned.
"The villain doesn't know, whether they know each other or not, a few people in the past, you can know at first sight. The two officers and soldiers said, making a gesture of please again.
Seeing this, the group had no choice but to go with them and enter the barracks. I saw that the barracks were well organized and orderly. Groups of officers and men are either training, patrolling, or renovating the camp, in an orderly manner.
Cheng Hui only glanced at it, and then said: "The general here is a good hand at managing the army. ”
"Of course!" The officers and soldiers leading the way in front replied proudly, "General Huang Xin and Huang of Zhensanshan govern the army, and no one in the entire Qingzhou is not convinced! It is the bandits of Erlong Mountain, Taohua Mountain, and Qingfeng Mountain, and when they meet General Huang, they are just a fart and a urine, and they flee in despair! If it weren't for this, how could they get the people of Qingzhou and give them the nickname of a town and three mountains!"
As he spoke, his pride was palpable.
