"Ai!"

Guan Yubai pointed to a half-hidden path in the bushes on the left front and said to Xiao Yi: "From that direction, you should be able to see the Yanlai River in the distance, and there is still a section of the downstream direction of the Yanlai River..." After speaking, he pointed He pointed to the kraft paper on his hand and motioned for Xiao Yi to come and take a look.

Xiao Yi glanced at a blank space on the kraft paper, and replied cheerfully, "Come on, let's go over and take a look. After adding the lower reaches of the Yanlai River, the map in this direction is almost complete."

"The next step is to the southwest..."

The two said as they walked towards the path. Xiao Si temporarily left the young eagle Hanyu to Baihui and Lily to take care of, and followed Guan Yubai like a shadow.

The path was full of bushes, Xiao Yi took out a short knife and cut through the obstacles to clear the way for the two...

"You two young masters, stay behind!"

At this moment, a simple and honest voice came from behind them. Following the sound, I saw a big man with a big bow striding towards them. The big man seemed to be in his forties, with a black beard on his face. Hu, it was the hunter they saw just now.

Guan Yu Bai raised his eyebrows and looked at the other party, and asked, "I wonder if Xiongtai has any advice?"

The hunter had a naive expression, scratched the back of his head, and persuaded kindly: "Young master, there are many beasts infested on this mountain, I see that you are powerless, master, so be careful and don't walk around. "

"Thanks for the suggestion, Xiongtai." Guan Yubai clenched his fists.

Xiao Yi, who was originally a step behind, strode to Guan Yubai's side, patted Guan Yubai's shoulder indifferently, and said with a smile: "Brother, don't worry, although my brother has no power to hold a chicken, but he doesn't care. The little guard also knows a little about martial arts, so fierce beasts can't hurt him."

Saying that, he glanced at Xiao Si with a half-smile.

Although he seems to have been praised by this son of Xiao Shi, Xiao Si was not happy at all, gave Xiao Yi a cold look, folded his fist and said lightly, "Young Master Xiao has won the award."

The hunter with the long beard looked at the three of them again, his eyes stayed on Xiao Yi's face for a moment, he lowered his eyes to hide the sharpness in his eyes, smiled boldly, and said: "That's good, Don't blame me for being busy, son. How many sons came to visit Yulan Mountain?"

Guan Yu said with a white smile: "I heard that the scenery of Yulan Mountain is beautiful, so just come and take a look at it."

The hunter nodded and said proudly, "Our Yulan Mountain and Yanlai River are both beautiful, that is, the location is a bit remote." After a pause, he said enthusiastically, "Since the young masters are here, To the top of the mountain, I must have walked for a while, our village is at the foot of this mountain, and it doesn't take half an hour to walk, why not go to our village to rest?"

Guan Yubai turned his head to look at Xiao Yi: "Ai, what do you think?"

"Alright." Xiao Yi nodded and said, "It's been a long time since we walked, so let's ask for a glass of water by the way."

"Don't worry, everyone, don't dare to say anything else, the cold water must be enough!" Orion laughed heartily, pointing to the southwest, "Our village is over there. Young masters, do you want to call some of your friends? "

"That's natural, we'll harass Xiongtai." Xiao Yi clasped his fists arrogantly and thanked the other party, "Have you not asked Xiongtai your surname?"

While talking, Xiao Si had already called Nangong Yue and others who were sitting not far away to rest.

"My surname is Zhang, and the bow is Zhang. A few of you will come with me."

That Orion enthusiastically led the way, and Nangong Yue and Xiao Yi followed in twos and threes.

Zhang Orion led them to the southwest. After passing through a forest, he saw a rugged trail that was walked out by people.

Zhang Orion introduced with a smile on his face: "Our village is at the foot of the mountain, so the people of the village often walk on this path.

With that said, Zhang Orion walked down first. He seemed to be very familiar with this path. He walked down the mountain steadily, reminding them from time to time to pay attention to their feet.

Going down the dry yellow mud trail, when we approached the foot of the mountain, I saw a small village appearing below. There were twenty or thirty small houses with earth-walled and tiled houses in the village. Somewhat barren.

When they approached the entrance of the village, this feeling became more obvious.

The village is quiet, all sounds are still, people feel lifeless, not angry, no, or popular.

The hunter sighed in front of him and said, "I made a few young masters laugh. When the Nanliang people came over a few months ago, the people in the village fled and died, and now I am the only one included. Six of them still live in the village."

He raised his eyes and looked at the village in front of him, his brows furrowed, and he sighed softly, "My whole family died in the war, so I am the only one alive... Sometimes when I think about it, I really wish I could go with them, Hey, but as the saying goes, it's better to die than to live, do you think it's true?" After speaking, the hunter's eyes were already hazy with tears, his eyes were red, and he looked very embarrassed.

Lily said indignantly: "That Nanliang people are really abominable! I don't know how many innocent people and soldiers' families in my southern border have been destroyed, and their heads are in different places! If I run into Nanliang people, I don't want to kill them. ."

During the conversation, everyone looked at the village. At this moment, it was noon, but at a glance, there were only two or three households lit up with smoke, and they were sparse and depressed.

"This young master is still a warm-blooded person." Zhang Orion clenched his fists at Lily with a deep feeling, and followed the conversation, "Several young masters, please, my family is in front." He said, he pointed Pointing to a house not far from the entrance of the village that was smoking from cooking, he said, "Now I'm living with my cousin. He probably cooks dinner. If the young masters don't dislike it, how about some light meals at my house?"

Guan Yubai and Xiao Yi glanced at each other, and finally Guan Yubai smiled slightly, clasped his fists and said, "Then we should be respectful rather than obedient and harass Xiongtai."

"You're too polite, son." Zhang Hunter laughed heartily, "Although it's a rough meal, it's better than the game I just hunted from the mountains yesterday. The meat of the pheasant and hare is delicious and strong. It's delicious to cook any soup..."

Zhang Orion continued to talk, and during the speech, several people came to the house that Orion pointed to before.

The house is surrounded by a circle of wooden fences. As soon as you enter the yard, you can see a small vegetable field, but the vegetables grown inside have dried up and turned yellow. There are some sieves, baskets, stone mills scattered all over the yard... Seeing Baihui and Lily frown slightly.

Zhang Orion scratched the back of his head a little embarrassedly, and said: "I'll make you laugh. We two men are big and three thick, and we can't clean up..."

The face that was almost covered by the beard showed a bit of embarrassment.

Fu Yunhe said with a grin: "Brother Zhang, you are too polite. We men are not women, so we don't care about the details!"

At this moment, a rough male voice came from the room: "Cousin, are you back?"

After speaking, the owner of the voice had already walked out of the room. It was a man in his thirties, of medium height, black and thin, with a long horse face, and his appearance was very mediocre. His suspicious eyes turned to Zhang Orion. behind

"Da Chun." Zhang Orion responded hurriedly, "I happened to meet these young masters on the mountain. They wanted to come to our house to rest and beg for saliva. I thought that you were just cooking, so we simply By the way, please invite these young gentlemen to a light meal."

Dachun was stunned for a while, and immediately responded enthusiastically: "The meal is almost ready. Everyone please come in! It's just a simple house, so don't dislike it." Since the people from Nanliang called, there have been very few guests in our village, it is rare today, so we can liven it up."

The main room was empty, with only a square table and a few benches, as well as a few large jars in the corner. Although the room was simple, the hot food smell from the kitchen was mixed with the smell of meat. It permeates the house and makes those who hear it salivate.

"A few people, please take a seat, you're welcome."

With a smile on his face, Zhang Orion invited Xiao Yi, Guan Yubai, and Nangong Yue to sit down at a simple and rough square table, and dragged out a few benches from the back room, and politely let Xiao Si, Ren Zinan and the others also sit down down.

"Brother Zhang, sit down too." Xiao Yi greeted the hunter Zhang to sit down as well, and asked casually, "There are not many people in this village, why don't you just move somewhere else? There are only six of you living here. , it is not a long-term way.”

Zhang Liehu smiled bitterly and said: "I grew up in this village, and I only know how to hunt. Hey, although Yanding City is safe, a villager in our village has seen it. The gate of Yanding City is every day. It's tightly closed, and you can't come and go at will. If you're trapped in the city, what do we rude people rely on to eat? Even if we don't starve to death, we can't starve to the point of being yellow-faced and skinny... Anyway, we only have a few cheap lives. Since God was lucky enough to let me get my life back, I must not be in a hurry to get it back!"

That hunter was an open-minded person, and he laughed first.

While talking, Zhang Orion's cousin named Dachun gave them a few bowls of cold water and smiled attentively: "Everyone is thirsty. We don't have any tea here to entertain you, just a few bowls of cold water."

Ordinary hunters in this wilderness naturally can't bring out any decent utensils, that is, seven or eight large celadon bowls, some of which even have small gaps in the mouth, but fortunately these bowls are washed well Clean, the cool water in it is clear and transparent.

Xiao Yi took the celadon bowl, did not drink it, but said with a smile: "This eldest brother is too polite. In my opinion, the most thirst-quenching thing is the most common water."

Nangongyue pulled Han Qixia's hand without a trace. Han Qixia was no longer the simple and ignorant royal daughter she used to be. She smiled slightly and sat there without moving.

Zhang Orion smiled when he saw this, motioned Da Chun to put the bowls on the table, and said, "Does your noble person despise the dirty bowls in our house? I have washed this bowl several times, and the water is clean."

Guan Yubai picked up the celadon bowl on the table, and said with a faint smile: "There is one thing that I am a little concerned about. Could you trouble Brother Zhang to answer it?"

Zhang Orion hurriedly said, "Sir, please speak."

The official language was white and said: "I just saw a muddy trail in the mountains, leaving a lot of footprints scattered, and I don't know where it leads."

Zhang Orion's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "I don't know which trail your son is talking about, there are many beasts on Yulan Mountain, and hunters from our village and other nearby villages often go up the mountain to hunt, and it is inevitable that they will leave some behind. Footprints." As he spoke, he picked up a celadon bowl in front of him, raised his chin, and gulped down the drink in one go, then wiped the corners of his mouth with his cuff, and said to Da Chun beside him, "Da Chun, go and give I'll pour a bowl."

Dachun responded, took the bowl, and was about to turn his head into the kitchen.

Xiao Yi winked, and Ren Zinan stepped forward and stopped Da Chun, but he didn't say a word.

"Why are you blocking my way?" Da Chun raised his voice angrily, and quickly exchanged glances with Zhang Orion.

Xiao Yi stroked his sleeves, curled the corner of his mouth, smiled brightly like a peach blossom, and said meaningfully slowly: "You two, don't waste your energy, 'no one' will come."

Speaking of which, Zhang Orion still didn't know that he was showing his face. He stood up abruptly and wanted to escape, but a cyan figure flashed by in front of him, and Xiao Si had appeared in front of him with a blank face. The silver dagger pressed against his neck, and he gave a few words neatly: "Our son has not finished speaking, sit down." The icy blade of the dagger pressed against Zhang Orion's skin, and he was stiff.

Although Lily has always had no fondness for Xiao Si's dead face, but at this time, she has to admit that Xiao Si is quite reliable and pleasing to the eye...

Zhang Orion rolled his eyes, and at this moment, the direction of the door darkened, and a figure appeared at the door...

Must be theirs! Zhang Orion was overjoyed, but when he saw a strange man in black walking in, his heart sank: Oops! He thought he had led Xiao Yi into the trap, but did he lead the wolf into the house instead?

Thinking of this possibility, Zhang Orion almost trembled.

It was Xiao Ying who came.

Xiao Ying also held a string of bells in his hand, and when he shook it deliberately, the bell made a crisp sound, but the faces of Zhang Orion and Da Chun were even more ugly.

Xiao Ying smiled and clasped his fists and said, "Master Shizi, in addition to these two people, there are eight Nanliang people lurking in this village. My subordinates and Ah assassinated six and caught two alive, and now they will be thrown out. In the courtyard, Ah An is guarding." After a pause, he added, "These Nanliang people are also very interesting. These bells are buried in the back of the house to communicate with each other. Fortunately, the subordinates responded quickly and sent their news. truncated..."

It turned out to be from Nanliang! Han Qixia, Lily, and the others shrank their pupils. At this moment, they vaguely understood that the real purpose of their trip was probably aimed at these people from Nanliang. And what he is drawing should not be just a few people in this area!

Now, without the need for Xiao Si to threaten anything with a dagger, Zhang Orion sat down softly, cold sweat broke out, and his heart was extremely cold: the communication network they set up in the village was cracked by the other party! There were indeed ten people lurking in this village, and all of them were solved by the other party!

how so!

Xiao Ying still had a smile on his face, but he sneered in his heart. These Nanliang people thought they had laid out this bell line, and once there was a situation, they could communicate with each other, but they didn't know that this biggest weakness was also revealing their own position.

He and Xiao An followed the vine and dug out the dark pile with ease.

Xiao Yi put down the celadon bowl in his hand with a smile, handed it to Zhang Orion, and said kindly, "You're sweating so much, are you thirsty? Drink more water!"

There was more cold sweat on Zhang Orion's forehead and back, and his clothes were almost soaked with sweat.

He stared blankly at the celadon bowl in front of him, how dare he drink it. Others don't know, he knows best that he added "material" to the water, but he is sure that this "material" is colorless and tasteless, and it is impossible for anyone to find it.

He wanted to convince himself like this, but when things developed to this point, what he was "confident" about had disappeared in an instant.

Before, when he happened to meet Xiao Yi on Yulan Mountain, he still thought that his luck was really good. This dignified prince of Zhennan went out without a few guards, and there were a few mothers among the people accompanying him. Angry, it looks like a woman disguised as a man.

At the moment, Zhang Orion felt disdain in his heart. He just felt that the prince of Zhennan was nothing more than that. He was not as famous as meeting each other. Now that the war is not over, he is like a swinger.

Such a person turned out to be the head coach of tens of thousands of Southern Border Army, it seems that Southern Border is within easy reach!

However, for Zhang Orion, this is really a great opportunity.

He has been trapped in this village for several months. If he can kill the prince of Zhennan in one fell swoop this time, the morale of the Southern Border Army will be defeated in an instant. Before the king of Zhennan can react, they will The Nanliang army can retake Yanding City, Yongjia City, and even Huiling City in one fell swoop. Then your credit is ironclad, and you can soar all the way from now on!

Just a snap of his fingers, Zhang Orion made a decision, determined to seize this great opportunity, lead the prince of Zhennan to their village, and then let them do it. Even if he doesn't kill Xiao Yi, he is also a Very expensive chips...

Seeing the wealth and glory in front of him, Zhang Orion never expected that after returning to the village, the development of things was completely beyond his imagination. The subordinates also found the hidden piles lurking in the village.

Then, even if the other party knows what he put in this bowl, it is not uncommon for him to be foolish enough to think that he can play tricks on the other party...

Seeing the change in Orion's expression is really wonderful, the corner of Nangong Yue's lips curled up on the side, and he simply took the opportunity to give him another blow to completely defeat his defense: "It is colorless and tasteless, but there is a faint smell of rice, This should be 'Qianjin Dian'. As far as I know, one drop of 'Qianjin Dian' can stun ten tigers, which is an extremely rare drug..."

"You..." Zhang Orion's pupils shrank sharply, feeling as if something shattered in his heart for a moment.

The other party really knows everything and everything, as if their recent every move has been under the gaze of the other party, as if they have been played by the other party for a long time!

Guan Yubai smiled slightly, his eyes flashed, and said, "Since Xiongtai doesn't want to drink water, let's continue to chat."

Guan Yubai looked at Zhang Orion politely, "I see a few of them have been guarding Yulan Mountain in rotation. It should be for something precious, right?"

Zhang Orion and Dachun both lowered their heads, and neither of them spoke.

Guan Yubai didn't want to hear any answer from the other party, and continued: "It's a path leading to Dengli City, right?"

This time, the pair of "cousins" reacted, Zhang Orion clenched his fist, and the big Chun intuitively glanced at Zhang Orion.

Even without looking at the other party's reaction, Guan Yubai already knew the answer. According to the map, Dengli City is not far behind Yulan Mountain. One of the reasons he and Xiao Yi, Fu Yunhe and his party came to Yulan Mountain last time was to check if there was a road leading to Dengli City on the mountain.

They didn't come in vain that time.

After returning, he and Xiao Yi picked a day, quietly came to Yulan Mountain again, and groped along a path, carefully avoiding people's eyes and ears along the way, without even damaging the shrubs along the way.

Although the path has been carefully cleaned up, anyone who walks through it will inevitably leave traces. In addition to some messy footprints, they also found some blood stains in the bushes, weeds, and even some A few corpses that were carefully buried... After going down the mountain all the way down the trail, both of them were overjoyed.

Guan Yubai's estimate is correct, there is indeed an unknown trail on Yulan Mountain that leads to Dengli City.

Then the traces that were deliberately concealed became more and more meaningful.
