Chapter 147 Going out of the city to find someone
The early morning sun pierced through the woods and fell on Wan Peng's face. He opened his eyes, and there was a look of determination in them. Last night, after discussing the plan with Xie Ting, Cheng Mo and the others, he threw himself into his own cultivation. The Jiangzhou Continent is full of spiritual energy, and it is indeed the best place to cultivate. During this time, although there were many affairs, he never interrupted his routine cultivation every night.
Eight layers of foundation were built.
This is the realm he has just broken through. Entering the late stage of foundation building, Wan Peng felt that the form of spiritual power in the body had undergone some changes. It used to be an increase in the amount and the concentration did not change significantly, but now it is an increase in concentration. The advantage of increasing the concentration of spiritual power is that if you want to use more output, you will consume less spiritual energy.
The subtlety of this cannot be expressed in a few words. Wan Peng can understand, but he can't say it.
Cheng Mo and the others knew that Wan Peng would definitely make a move this morning, and they had already gotten up early to train. The use of the environmental aura of the two one-yuan arrays now has reached the level of use of the qi refining period cultivators, and at the same time, after Wan Peng's improvement, the rope relied on by the attackers to recover is gradually being replaced by the spiritual rope transformed by the aura, but the latter is currently not stable, and it should be used extremely carefully in actual combat.
Seeing Wan Peng get up, Cheng Mo stepped forward first, "Captain, what is the specific plan for today?"
Wan Peng smiled slightly, "It's okay, you can adjust it first." After a while, Xie Ting and I went around to find out what types of besieging beasts were. ”
Cheng Mo was a little puzzled, "This ......"
Wan Peng patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry." You are on guard here, especially not to argue with anyone unless there are special circumstances. ”
After a simple arrangement, Wan Peng and Xie Ting put on the flying blanket, and laid out a camouflage formation on the blanket, flying quickly against the ground. This formation is actually very unstable, and with a little attention, you can see the flaws. Fortunately, the attention of the people above the city wall was now focused on the beasts besieging the city, and not many people would observe the place five or six miles away from the city wall.
There are seven species of besieging beasts in the outer city, except for the largest tiger cat, which dominates one side of the northern city wall, all the others are in groups of two and two, and they are besieged on the outer side of the city. The combat power of these seven beasts is relatively strong, and the characteristics are also extremely obvious, sometimes in order to compete for position, there are also small-scale conflicts with each other, but they do not reach the level of fighting each other, which shows that their target is still human.
It took nearly two hours to reconnoiter in a circle. Back in the woods, Wan Peng breathed a sigh of relief. He turned to Xie Ting and smiled slightly, "I bet that within six hours, someone will come out of the city to meet me." ”
Xie Ting was puzzled, "Just because you just turned around?"
Wan Peng shook his head, turned and pointed to the south of the east wall, "Look there." ”
Everyone looked in the direction of his finger, and in the south of the city wall on the east side of Jiangyang City, there seemed to be red clouds churning in the air, and the lightning and flint flashed in the clouds, and at the same time, countless points of light smashed into the beasts on the ground. The beast there is a white-tailed ant, although it is huge and has a strong attack ability, but it has no way to deal with the air.
According to the fire ptarmigan, this white-tailed ant was originally one of their food.
The one-sided battle lasted less than an hour, the white-tailed ants were defeated, and the ant king was captured alive by the bird king and sacrificed to Wanpeng. Now with Xie Ting, the identification of medicinal materials has immediately gone to a higher level, and after leaving the useful part, the ant king has become a big supplement for the bird king.
In a short period of time, the besieging beasts changed, and the defenses in the city even changed! On the city wall in that direction, several air defense units quickly appeared, which really made Wan Peng nervous for a while. Fortunately, the troops in the city were not active defensive, and seeing that the fire thunderbird did not move, they did not take the initiative to attack, but only a stalemate.
And Wan Peng, seeing that the shape has been stabilized, has entered the state of cultivation again.
Two hours later.
Wan Peng opened his eyes and looked out of the city. Just now, the fire thunderbird's sentinel reported that a secret tunnel appeared in an inconspicuous corner, and there was a team, about four or five people, who went out of the tunnel and groped their way outside.
Due to the distance, plus the other party may have relatively complete camouflage and anti-reconnaissance methods, plus these people are not cultivators, there are almost no fluctuations in spiritual power, and Wan Peng has not found out for a while. However, having the Fire Thunderbird as an aerial surveillance is tantamount to a large radar, and every move on the ground is under his control.
When this person was about four miles away from them, Wan Peng also spotted him. Without any hesitation, Wan Peng jumped up and walked left and right through the trees, heading in the direction of the man.
Both of them are very fast, four miles away, but it is just a few breaths away!
The people who came were dressed in clothes similar to the color of the environment, and from a distance, they almost blended in with the surroundings. Wan Peng, on the other hand, is dressed in gray clothes, which can be seen at a glance. So two people, almost at the same time, discovered each other.
Then, however, the faces of the people who emerged from the city changed dramatically. Although he found Wan Peng, he suddenly lost his trace!
While he was still surprised, suddenly a hand grabbed his neck from behind. He felt his breath tighten and he lost consciousness.
Wan Peng dragged the man back to the woods as quickly as he could, and then found a more unrecognizable place to wake him up.
The man opened his eyes, first stunned, and then carefully observed Wan Peng. Wan Peng didn't wait for him to speak, and asked first, "Who are you?"
The man struggled to get up, but was pressed down by Wan Peng's palm. He coughed twice, "I'm Dong Fei, the guard of the throne of Jiangyang City. With that, he reached out and pulled out something that looked like a waist tag.
Wan Peng took it and took a look, and it was. But at this time, he was also shocked in his heart, the throne guards? sounded like the guards of the King of the Sun, and even should be personal bodyguards. If you hadn't used the escape path to preemptively strike from behind just now, I'm afraid that it would be a head-to-head battle, and there would still be some trouble. It may not even be able to win.
"What are you doing here?" Wan Peng didn't think much about it, but asked the truth first.
Dong Fei seemed very quiet now, as if he had known that this would happen, "We were ordered by Lord Li Si to go out of the city to find someone. ”
Wan Peng was overjoyed, but he didn't dare to reveal his true identity yet, in case there was a first glance, it would be too late to regret it. "Looking for whom?"
Dong Fei shook his head, "Master Li didn't speak. He only said, go out of the city and look for people in the direction of the siege of the Fire Thunderbird, if anyone captures you, don't fight back, even if you are killed by the enemy, you can't fight back. ”
Wan Peng frowned slightly, "How can you prove it?"
Dong Fei reached out and took out an envelope from his pocket, "Master Li asked each of us to carry this one, if he found the right person, he would know at a glance, if it was not the right person, he would know nothing." ”
Wan Peng took a deep breath, took the envelope, and after tearing it open, he saw that there was a small piece of paper inside, with only six simple words written on it, air fire support.
Air fire support, this is a word that Wan Peng came up with on a whim when Wan Peng and Li Si were fighting together. At the time, Liss did not understand that here, it was a new word. Come to think of it, on the continent of Jiangzhou, people can't fly, and they don't think of this word at all. This word is enough to show that the letter was written by Lis.
This man was sent by Lees to pick them up!
If there are any tricks at this point, Wan Peng can only sigh that even Li Si was bought or mutilated by Lord Murong, so he can only accept his fate. He sighed lightly, "I'm the one Master Li is looking for." With that, he let go.
Dong Fei stood up and looked at Wan Peng, "Master Li instructed that if someone claims to be the person he is looking for, he should ask three questions. First, how many troops did Master Li lead when we last met? Second, what did Master Li call you? Third, where did you come from?"
Wan Peng smiled slightly, "Nine hundred." Captain Wan. Ciudad Bugaro. ”
The excitement in Dong Fei's eyes flashed, but he still had a very calm expression on his face. "Captain Wan has had a hard trip, please lead the team into the city with me!"
Wan Peng nodded, and took Dong Fei out of this hidden place, his team had already been assembled. Dong Fei glanced at the two one-yuan arrays with a total of thirty-two people, plus a woman on the side, his face full of doubt and disappointment. "Captain Wan, we will enter the city through the secret passage, at least for an hour, the secret passage is safe. The captain of the whole class, you can gather and go with me. ”
Wan Peng smiled slightly, "This is all my people." ”
Dong Fei's brows furrowed slightly, but he quickly adjusted, "Okay, let's enter the city now." ”
The whole team enters the city, which is much more difficult than a single person. According to Dong Fei, most of the soldiers currently guarding the city are subordinates of Lord Murong, and if they find someone entering the city, they will definitely find a way to find the entrance to the city and carry out encirclement and suppression.
However, this matter is not difficult for Wan Peng. After setting up a simple phantom array, the team looked like its surroundings from a distance. This hand alone has already made Dong Fei stunned.
As for what was the situation with Lord Murong, Wan Peng didn't ask much. After all, time on the road is limited, and some things cannot be explained. Moreover, it is difficult to determine whether Dong Fei is clear about the core content.
He only learned about the basic situation of the troops in Jiangyang City. Jiangyang City, the garrison of the city is 120,000, and there are currently 90,000 left, with combat capability, of which 80,000 are controlled by Lord Murong; the king of Jiangzhou has 6,000 elite guards, and there are basically no casualties at present.
As soon as this information came out, Wan Peng gasped. If it is said that Jiangyang City is besieged by wild beasts, and there is a political confrontation in the city under this contrast of forces, then the most likely situation is...... Conspiracy!
If Murong had ambitions for power, he would definitely rely on the superiority of his forces to coerce the king. However, it is precisely because the advantage is too obvious and the blatant resistance is likely to be unable to convince the public, even if the king is overthrown, it will be difficult for the cities on the Jiangzhou continent to surrender. Therefore, even if there is an initial opportunity, Murong may not do it immediately.
It's just that if the time is too long, the inflated desire and ambition may not be able to wait!
Is this why the last time Li Si saw him, he couldn't hide his anxiety and anxiety?
Wan Peng reasoned like this, and when he looked up, he had already arrived at the entrance of the tunnel. Thirty-three people entered the tunnel, which was dark as ink at first, but then turned two corners, and it was full of torches, which were bright and visible. After walking for about half an hour, Dong Fei pointed to an upward step, "Captain Wan, we have arrived." ”
