Chapter 985: Tangled
The VIPs were surrounded by guards, ranging from seven or eight to thirty or forty.
Lei Ni rolled her eyes and simply gathered the VIPs together. People like to join in the fun, and seeing that there were so many people here, other guests followed one after another. The team quickly expanded to more than 300 people, and they marched towards Qingyun Road in a mighty manner.
He Lingchuan had temporarily entrusted the affairs of the Suo Ding Island Pier to Lei Ni, Guan Ke and others. When the entire Suo Ding Island was almost busy, they had to go to the quiet central part of the island.
The farther away from the pier, the quieter the voices and the quieter the environment.
The sky was already dark, and there were no stars tonight.
Qingyun Road was getting higher and higher, and everyone praised the auspicious name of the road. After walking a hundred feet and looking back, I saw that the pier was brightly lit and people were coming and going.
Here, everyone has their own place.
The wind and waves on the sea were getting stronger. Wang Xingyi looked at the forest on Soding Island and said, "The wind on Soding Island is not small."
After they landed on Soding Island, they only felt the breeze on their faces, and the branches on the roadside were swaying gently, which seemed to be two different worlds from the sea.
But now he climbed up and looked far away. Although there was a breeze at the dock, the trees in the outer bay were shaking their heads frequently; the waves hit the reefs, and the white foam splashed up to three feet high.
How can the peninsula be separated by two worlds?
Fang Canran thought: "Formation?"
If the windproof formation is arranged, He Lingchuan has really invested a lot in Soding Island. The area of this island is not small.
He Lingchuan smiled and said, "Yes, we must give priority to the dock and the guest accommodation area. Don't worry, the hot spring cottage is also protected by the formation."
There is no formation barrier in uninhabited areas, such as the south and west of Soding Island. If someone insists on going there, they will have to enjoy the warm hospitality of the storm.
Wang Xingyi and Fang Canran looked at each other. He Lingchuan accompanied them personally and was very polite, but they all felt something was strange and couldn't explain it for a while.
Wang Xingyi said considerately: "The wind and waves at sea are getting bigger and bigger, and the dock is getting more and more lively. Why don't you stay and take care of it? Songyuan will accompany me."
In one or two hours at most, the hurricane will land. Yangshan Islands are very busy, but He Lingchuan, as the island owner, put aside his work and accompanied them to the hot spring cottage.
"Master Wang Guo is too polite." He Lingchuan said lightly, "Usually, where I am, there is a lot of fun."
...
The Bailong people are hidden in the mountains and forests of Sodin Island, less than ten feet away from Qingyun Road.
Lanterns are lit along the Qingyun Road, one every three feet. They are not the wind-killing lanterns, but the fluorescent spores specializing in the underground spider nest.
But the brighter this road is, the darker the jungle on the side of the road is.
It rained in the sky, and the fragrance of grass and soil was floating everywhere.
The Bailong people lay motionless in the long grass.
No one was in a hurry. They still had some patience.
Wanqi Song stared at Qingyun Road with a heavy face. Wanqi Feng sneaked over from a distance with more than a hundred people and quietly joined him.
Everyone was there, and it went unexpectedly smoothly.
"Have you arranged the people at the dock?"
"Yes. No one doubts, no one asks." Wanqi Feng whispered, "He Lingchuan has also arrived at Suo Ding Island, and our people watched him get off the ship."
"The explosives in the dock warehouse?"
"They are being placed." The loading and unloading of the dock tonight is not only busy but also chaotic. Who will pay attention to a few more or fewer boxes of goods? "When the time comes, we will give a signal here, and the explosion will be detonated on the spot over there!"
This operation focuses on blooming in multiple places, so that the Yangshan Islands can be overwhelmed. And the explosives were also provided by Bai Lie. Lu Zhensheng wished that they would do more damage on Suo Ding Island.
Thinking of the battle tonight, Wanqi Song grinned. Everything was going smoothly, except for the trouble in front of him——
He pointed to Qingyun Road: "The hurricane may not help us. The He family has set up a windproof barrier. Old Yu is right, this island owner is really rich!"
More than 400 of them were soaked inside and out, and their hair danced wildly with the weeds around them. But the trees and fluorescent spores on the boulevard were shaking very little.
They gritted their teeth and endured the strong wind in the wild, but there was only a breeze on Qingyun Road.
Ten feet away, it's like two worlds.
The windproof formation is not difficult, but it is difficult to spread it over a large area on a hurricane day, and it consumes a lot of energy. How many black crystals will He Lingchuan use for the windproof formation this night?
This money is enough for the Bailong people to give their families a lot of delicious meals?
Now that there is no help from the hurricane, how can they take advantage of the "chaos" to attack He Lingchuan?
The guests coming and going on Qingyun Road were all talking and laughing, and their expressions were relaxed, not to mention that there were guards patrolling every half a cup of tea.
"Then we won't wait for the hurricane to land. As soon as He Lingchuan comes, we will take action." The situation has changed, and Wanqi Feng also needs to adjust his tactics, "Where is that Beijia man Wang Xiang?"
Wang Xiang was instructed by Yu Zecheng to station the Bailong team to facilitate communication between the two sides.
"He said he went to the toilet and will be back soon."
Wanqi Feng shook his head: "The Beijia people have a way of communication, but they are unwilling to expose it in front of us."
Wanqi Song rolled his eyes.
These Beijia people asked them to act together, but they still don't trust them.
This arrogance, tsk.
Just then, the scouts in front came back in the dark to report:
"The target is coming, but there are more than 300 people, and there is also the national teacher of Mou State!"
The Bailong people were immediately focused. Uncle Wanqi and his nephew were shocked: "Master of the State of Mou?"
Not good, the arrival of a high-ranking official means——
"Our people heard at the dock that Master of the State of Mou suddenly came to visit, and the escort team that accompanied him had more than a hundred people, all elite!"
"At this moment?" Wanqi Feng frowned, "Is it the foreign aid invited by Island Master He?"
"It doesn't look like it. Island Master He seems to be surprised. Listening to their conversation, the other party just arrived on the island before the hurricane." The spy said quickly, "Also, our brothers found the burrow spider queen near the dock."
Wanqi Feng felt bad when he heard it: "The spider queen came to the island?"
"We have never seen such a big spider demon. It is like a small house. It wanders around the street, and the surrounding residents and businesses are not panicked."
That's right, except for the burrow spider queen wanted by Bejia, where else in the Yangshan Islands is there such a big spider demon?
"What is it doing?"
"It seems to be patrolling the dock."
Wanqi Feng pondered: "Once there is a change on the island, the spider demon should come."
"That is the target of the Bejia people." Wanqi Song said in a deep voice, "If it comes, the Bejia people will intercept it."
Then, a large group of people came on the boulevard, at least two or three hundred people.
"So many people?" With the eyesight of Wanqi uncle and nephew, they could quickly tell that He Lingchuan was in the crowd.
The target and the location were right, but the hearts of the two sank.
Wanqi Feng originally planned to act in advance, and kill He Lingchuan as soon as he appeared.
But now there are more than 300 people on the road, and there are more than 400 people on his side - 200 people stayed at the dock - the number is not superior.
Moreover, half of the 300 people on Qingyun Road are strong men.
The intelligence of the spies is correct. There are more than 100 elite guards surrounding He Lingchuan and the so-called distinguished guests of Mou State in the middle.
If the person who was chatting and laughing with him was really the state teacher of Mou State, what is the success rate of his side's rash attack?
Wanqi uncle and nephew looked at each other, and Wanqi Feng shook his head.
No matter how extreme Wanqi Song was, he knew that the chances of winning if he rushed forward were not enough, so he had to close his eyes and lower his head, with his forehead on the grass, and sighed secretly.
Qiu Hu, the number one fierce general under He Lingchuan, was also on his side.
This guy is tough, and he is also very proud when riding on a horse.
Wanqi Song said coldly: "Wait until we capture He Lingchuan, and see if he can still be so arrogant?"
These days, Qiu Hu has been training the guards. He speaks at the top, and Wanqi uncle and nephew can only listen below.
Wanqi Feng said: "This man has some real skills."
The crossbowman next to Wanqi Song has been quietly aiming the crossbow at He Lingchuan.
Wanqi Feng's order was delayed, but Qiu Hu's eyes swept over!
His eyes seemed to accidentally glance at the long grass on the side of the road, and he met the crossbowman's eyes!
As the name suggests, his eyes are as fierce as a tiger.
Wanqi Feng pressed the crossbow and whispered to his men: "Turn around! Don't look at him!"
Some people are born with spiritual perception, or have cultivation, and are particularly sensitive to other people's gazes and the arrival of crises.
Fortunately, Qiu Hu didn't notice them. He retracted his gaze the next second and waded through this section of the tree-lined path.
Go west for another three and a half miles and you will reach the hot spring cottage.
The uncle and nephew breathed a sigh of relief. The lights on this road were too bright, there were too many people, and there were too many guards. Now was definitely not a good opportunity to take action.
Wanqi Feng immediately said to his uncle: "There is no hope tonight, let's retreat."
Wanqi Song looked unwilling.
What a good opportunity, hey.
At this moment, Wang Xiang, a Bejia man, hurried over and asked Wanqi uncle and nephew:
"I heard that He Lingchuan just passed by?"
"More than 300 people, and there is also the national master of Mou country in the team." Wanqi Feng looked at him sideways, "Do you dare to go?"
"National master of Mou country?" Wang Xiang was shocked and asked the same question as Wanqi Song, "Is it the helper found by the target?"
"No, it seems to be an accident." Wanqi Feng said to his uncle, "Let's go. The hurricane has not landed yet, and we can still leave by boat now."
Wang Xiang was shocked: "What, you are retreating now?"
This uncle and nephew are a major focus of Lord Yu's plan, how can they retreat at the last minute!
Wanqi Feng pointed to Qingyun Road: "The chance is gone, why are you still wasting time here?"
He didn't say one thing: Should I stay here and be used as a gun by you?
"If you leave now, there will definitely be no chance. Why not wait a little longer?" Wang Xiang said immediately, "I have waited for half a night, do you still care about waiting a little longer? If there is another chance, go; if there is no chance, forget it."
This was exactly what Wanqi Song was thinking, he didn't want to leave in the first place.
"What's the harm in waiting a little longer? Can you lose a piece of meat?" Wang Xiang saw Wanqi Song hesitated, and added fuel to the fire, "We just confirmed that Emperor Liujiang will arrive tonight. You know what Emperor Liujiang is like. When it comes, the opportunity comes with it."
The strong wind is unreliable, but Emperor Liujiang can be. Whenever this treasure descends on the earth, it represents the beginning of chaos.
Wanqi Feng: "Uncle..."
Wanqi Song raised his hand: "Wait a little longer, wait a little longer!"
