Chapter 13: Yuan Xi

As the sound of trembling horses' hooves approached, the cavalry rushed to the Luo River, and the sound of shouting was everywhere, and the horses under the seats stopped running. [Ran^Text^Library] []()

There were about a hundred people in this group, and the leader was a young brother in a yellow brocade robe, who was in his twenties, and after commanding the horses to stop, he stretched out his right hand holding the horse whip and pointed to the Luohe River ahead, and turned his head to the old man with a long beard and asked, "Is this here?"

The bearded old man stroked his beard and said, "That's right, this is exactly what the compass points to." ”

"Then why is there nothing abnormal?" Holding the reins back in his right hand, Brother Gongzi asked with a frown.

"Possibly"

The white-bearded old man squinted and said, "The treasure has not yet reached the time of excavation. ”

"When will it be?"

"I don't know. ”

The old man's answer was very concise, but it was very clear, so the son's face was impatient, but he thought that this task was taken over from his father with great difficulty, and he couldn't give up easily.

Thinking of this, even though his face was unhappy, he didn't say anything else, but turned over and dismounted, and stepped to the edge of the Luo River.

Looking at Luo Hanoi, Brother Gongzi retracted his gaze, turned around and ordered his subordinates: "Set up camp, we will stay here for a while." ”

"Yes!"

The cavalry dismounted and began to set up camp according to the orders of Gongzi.

Seeing them so simply, Brother Gongzi smiled, but still added: "Although this is our territory, we still have to be cautious, the treasure designated by the golden compass, don't make a mistake!"

"Yes!"

The subordinates' answers were very loud, and Brother Gongzi just wanted to nod his head in appreciation, when a loud announcement suddenly sounded from his side: "Report to the second son, there are traces of a fight not far away!"

One didn't pay attention, Brother Gongzi was startled by this abrupt voice, and wanted to get angry, but he was attracted by the content of the report, ignored the others for the time being, and hurriedly said: "Not far away, where can you take me quickly!"

"Yes!"

The soldier's voice was extremely loud, which made Brother Gongzi's face darken a little.

The soldier followed him to the place he had spoken, and with him was the old man with the long beard. After a few steps, the soldier's footsteps stopped, and the two of them looked in the direction of his finger, and a chaotic situation came into their eyes.

Just now, he only cared about issuing orders and observing Luohe, but he didn't notice the abnormality at these few steps, Brother Gongzi was secretly ashamed, but his expression fell into thought.

The clearing ahead was a rag-like debris, accompanied by a few pieces of iron and a few pieces of wood, and the ground was turned open to reveal the wet dirt beneath.

The bearded old man squatted down and touched the wet soil slightly, and after observing the remnants of the place a few times, he secretly realized something.

got up, and was about to say his guess, but Brother Gongzi rushed to say it: "This was a camp before, and not long ago, it was attacked and destroyed by someone with the power of heaven and earth. ”

His tone was very affirmative, and the bearded old man who knew his character didn't say anything, just nodded, but secretly added: To be exact, it should have been a few minutes ago.

Seeing the bearded old man nodding, Brother Gongzi showed a hint of smugness, but quickly restrained, stared at the ground under his feet again for a while, and said suspiciously: "It seems a little strange here?"

"That's right. The long-bearded old man grabbed his snow-white long beard and said with a smile: "The second son has a good eye, and he can actually see the strangeness here." ”

The judge smiled. Brother Gongzi smiled humbly and said: "My son just saw something unusual, but he couldn't tell a thing or two in detail. ”

It was rare to see him so modest, and his face was pleased, so he pointed to the renovated ground under his feet with a pleasant face, and explained: "Second son, please look, can this ground be neat?"

"It's neat indeed. Brother Childe nodded.

The judge pointed to the other renovated ground around him, and said, "Second son, look at it again, how are these places different from here?"

Brother Gongzi thought for a moment and said, "Except for these fragments, there is no difference. ”

As he spoke, he had vaguely realized: "Judging the old man is saying"

"That's right. ”

Before Brother Gongzi finished groaning, the judge laughed and said, "All the traces of the fight here have been forged!"

After laughing, he suddenly shouted at the surroundings: "Who is hiding here, Yuan Xi, the second son of the Yuan family, is here, don't hurry up and see you!"

The soldiers not far away heard the old man's shouting, and they didn't care about the movements of their hands, so they quickly ran to the two of them and protected them, and then each stared around vigilantly.

"Who is hiding his head and tail, come out quickly!"

"The Yuan family is doing things again, and those who know each other come out quickly!"

"Come out!"

"Come out!"

"Get out of here!!"

The shouts of more than 100 soldiers were so deafening that many war horses standing not far away were anxious. But Yuan Xi and the trial match in the center did not stop them, because the soldiers were shouting loudly, but they were setting up formations!

The Array of People, the main fighting force of the army!

It is unknown what kind of formation they put in place, because they did not start immediately after setting up the formation, but kept a vigilant eye on their surroundings.

The formation was very physically demanding, and now that they hadn't even seen a shadow of the enemy, they would naturally not be so reckless.

However, since the formation has been set up, it is equivalent to half of the formation is completed, as long as the enemy appears, they can quickly cast the formation, not afraid of delaying the opportunity.

Unfortunately, they had a good idea, but no enemies appeared

Surrounded by soldiers, Yuan Xi's vision was blocked, and he couldn't see the rest of the environment here at all, although he was protected, he was greatly depressed.

The bearded old man was not arrogant and kept touching his smooth beard, and he didn't know what to touch, his face was calm, and he completely forgot that it was only after he shouted that he had provoked his subordinates to be so vigilant.

He kept pretending to be deep there, until Yuan Xi looked at him, then he showed a smile and said casually: "Childe, don't worry, there is no other place to hide people here except for the river in front." Judging by the size of this camp, there should not be two or three people, so it is impossible for them all to have some stealth skills, that is, this group of people is now "

"This group of people is hiding in that river now!" Yuan Xi's heart moved, and then after seeing the old man nodding, he was about to command the soldiers to search for the river, but his face became a little hesitant.

Although I roughly guessed the enemy's location, I didn't know the specific strength of the enemy, and if I couldn't deal with my own group of people, wouldn't I take the initiative to find death

Seeing the concerns in his heart, the judge smiled and said, "I think since this group of people choose to avoid us, they will definitely not be some masters, son, you can do your best." ”

"That's good!"

Yuan Xi thought about it for a while, so he had a certain face, and shouted at the soldiers around him and gave orders: "Keep the formation to the river, that group of people will hide inside, surround them for me!"

"Yes!!"
