Chapter 217: Luring Out the Spellcaster

The soldiers were not afraid of the straw men who pounced on them again, but were a little excited, they didn't expect to be able to fight with the monsters that only appeared in mythology, but wanted to see if they had such divine skills, so they all fought with high morale.

Zhang Xiao was relieved to see this situation, so that he could concentrate on finding the spellcaster, and said to Gao Zhan: "Xie Long, you also stay to help defend, I will be relieved to have you, remember that as long as you block them, don't use other methods, there may be other traps in these straw men." ”

Gao Zhan listened carefully to Zhang Xiao's words, and felt that this Zhang Xiao must be true, so he said: "Uncle Shi, if there is no aura among them, why can they still act, where does our motivation come from?"

This question stopped Zhang Xiao and said: "I just carefully studied a few straw men outside, and found that their behavior should be like insects, everything should be controlled by the caster, and there is no result from these straw people, as long as the caster does not remove this trick, then he can only wait for his aura to be exhausted." ”

Speaking of this, everything pointed to the fake Zhang Xiao, Gao Zhan immediately said to Zhang Xiao: "Uncle Shi, just now I found a person in the shape of you in the tent where I lived, but he is definitely not a straw man, I have exchanged a few tricks with him, and found that he couldn't compete at all, and finally turned into a snake and escaped, presumably he must be the person we are looking for." ”

Gao Zhan paused after speaking, and then hurriedly said: "By the way, he came to the camp and was still looking for General Niu Jin, it is estimated that his target this time is General Niu Jin, he wants to capture the thief and capture the king, and directly thwart the vanguard troops, we will go to General Niu Jin now, we must wait for him." ”

With the information of the spell caster, everything is easy to do, Zhang Xiao thought about it carefully and said: "If you say so, that person must be an immortal cultivator of the Earth Immortal lineage, maybe I can still talk to him, very good, we will go to General Niu Jin now." ”

Gao Zhan led Zhang Xiao towards the central area, and when he came to the big tent, he didn't find Niu Jin here, so he asked the garrison soldiers, "Where is General Niu Jin now?"

Seeing Gao Zhan asking, the garrison replied without hesitation: "I heard that most of the soldiers gathered at the camp gate to defend against the enemy, and the rear garrison was weak, so the general went to the rear fence. ”

So Zhang Xiao and Gao Zhan hurriedly rushed to the rear, and on the way, Zhang Xiao wanted to know more about the opponent, so he asked: "When you fought with that person, did you notice any characteristics of him? For example, his aura feeling or characteristics when he changes." ”

Gao Zhan quickly recalled it and said: "I didn't find anything wrong with him, I didn't even notice a trace of his aura, and his changed appearance can't tell the truth from the false, if you insist on saying flaws, it means that he doesn't know much about our affairs, he doesn't even know your personality and way of speaking, I know that there is a problem as soon as I hear him speak." ”

Zhang Xiao firmly remembered this, he must make good use of it, and take the initiative to lure him out.

When they came to the rear, Zhang Xiao and Gao happened to see Niu Jin directing the battle, so they ran over to inquire about the battle.

Niu Jin saw Zhang Xiao wiping the sweat on his forehead, and said with palpitations: "Zhang Xiao is still right, I didn't expect Jingzhou to be prepared, I don't know how they knew that we would go south at this time, and now those enemies outside can't be killed at all, so we will be attacked sooner or later." ”

Zhang Xiao saw that Niu Jin was very flustered at this time, so he said: "General, don't worry, those people outside are not really humans, they are all transformed from straw men, as long as we wait until the caster's aura is exhausted, even if we don't take the initiative to attack, these straw men will automatically fail, but for the sake of prudence, I still have to find him out later." ”

It turned out that this was the case, although Niu Jin still felt a little tricky, but seeing that Zhang Xiao knew so much, he was also a lot more relieved, and immediately called a few masters and ordered them to only use shields to defend, not to attack, and if those people wanted to rush in, they would push them back.

Zhang Xiao saw that Niu Jin still wanted to stay here to command, and felt that it was not good, so that the immortal cultivator would definitely not come out, so he said to Niu Jin: "General, now this situation does not need you to personally command, let's go to the tent to rest for a while, and when I find out the spellcaster, I will need your help." ”

Niu Jin listened to Zhang Xiao's suggestion and immediately agreed, and what happened now was completely left to Zhang Xiao, so he led Zhang Xiao and Gao Zhan to the tea tent for a short rest.

Niu Jin asked Zhang Xiao curiously, "Wait a minute, how are you going to find out the caster?" Will he hide among those straw men?"

Zhang Xiao replied: "Since he dares to attack our entire army, there must be an important mission, so he will definitely appear, and the result is just to wait quietly." ”

Niu Jin didn't know if it was true or not, and echoed: "I see, it's good that this is the case, I hope he can appear sooner, so that the soldiers can end the battle earlier." ”

Zhang Xiao looked at Gao Zhan again and said: "If you want to defeat that spellcaster, you must prepare first, Xie Long, you go back first and bring my most precious spiritual object, I believe that with it, it is easy to subdue that spellcaster." ”

Niu Jin was also very happy when he heard this, he didn't expect Zhang Xiao to have such a strong magic weapon, and immediately shouted to Gao Zhan: "Xie Long, you don't hurry up and get it, it will have a great impact if you delay it." ”

Gao Zhan was stunned for a moment after hearing Zhang Xiao say this, why hadn't he heard that Zhang Xiao had any precious spiritual objects, didn't he have all the spiritual objects on his body? But since Zhang Xiao said so, there must be his reasoning, so he didn't refute it, and after being told by Niu Jin, he left the tent and walked straight to the tent where he lived.

Niu Jin was still a little worried about this matter, so he asked Zhang Xiao: "That spell caster can summon so many straw men, presumably the kung fu must not be weak, I wonder if you have the confidence to defeat him?"

Zhang Xiao felt that Niu Jin seemed to be doubting his ability, and said: "General, what are you talking about, do you think I am not as strong as that person?"

Niu Jin was afraid that Zhang Xiao would be angry, so he hurriedly said: "I didn't mean that, it's just that that person can control so many straw men, and we only have defense, which is too embarrassing." ”

Zhang Xiao knew Niu Jin's true thoughts, he was a person who fought hard from the battlefield, how could he endure the suffering of passive defense, but he had no other way now but to use Niu Jin to lure that person out.

Dealing with the immortal cultivators of the earth immortal lineage is the most complicated, fighting with them is like guessing a riddle, never knowing what the truth is, if the current opponent is Zhang Yao, I believe that Zhang Yao can also make the pioneer battalion deal with endless monsters, it is much more difficult than dealing with these straw men.

Now think about it in comparison, if it is to deal with the heartless and the earth immortal cultivator who is as powerful as him, then it must be easier to deal with the heartless, because the heavenly immortal cultivator pays attention to the direct embodiment of aura, and winning is winning, unlike the earth immortal cultivator, even if he wins, he must first think about whether it is in the other party's layout, and maybe there is something hidden in the shadows, and the battle will definitely not end in a short time.

Not long after Gao Zhan ran out, he ran back again, and said with some soberness: "Uncle Shi, since that spell caster will appear at any time, then what else do we have to do separately? If he happens to come to sneak attack when I go back to get the spirit object, it will be miserable, let's wait together, I believe that the strength of the people can also subdue him." ”

Niu Jin also wanted to participate in the capture of immortal cultivators, which must be very exciting, and he could also increase his knowledge, so he also agreed with Gao Zhan's statement, and said: "I think what Xie Long said is also quite reasonable, with a few of us here, we can't catch him? ”

Gao Zhan immediately stopped: "It's better not for you to go, you are the supreme leader of the vanguard force, maybe it is one of that person's goals, stay here now, let Uncle Shi do the rest." ”

Niu Jin and Gao Zhan looked at Zhang Xiao together at this time, Zhang Xiao was stunned for a moment, thinking that the two officers did not give orders, and they wanted to go as a stranger, it was really unreasonable, but he did not refuse, and said: "Xie Long is right, let me inform them, don't worry, I will come back immediately." ”
