Ouyang Huan still shook his head: "It's not important. When they were attacked by us, they clearly prioritized their priorities. When the corpses became a burden, they threw them off the cliff without any hesitation. If they are greedy for life and afraid of death, and betray their trust, for serious injuries, But they never abandon them and try their best to save them. They know clearly what they should do and what they shouldn't do."
"As for the Sixth Young Master, your guess just now is correct. They have indeed not met Shen Lie yet. In other words, Shen Lie is not in their plan for this trip. Looking at the situation in Huazhou, it is about to break out. The surrounding areas are watching eagerly and will not tolerate it. They changed their plans at the last minute. Whether they are looking for Shen Lie or returning to Shuangpo Gorge to seek revenge on us, they know the importance."
"I understand, but they swallowed it like this?"
"So, it depends on Shen Lie," Ouyang Huan yawned sleepily, "The sooner we find Shen Lie, the better. We can deal with him as soon as possible and we can leave here as quickly as possible."
Guo Yu nodded: "It seems that we have to look at Shen Lie, but his men disappeared in Shuangpo Gorge. It's time for him to come."
"I just hope that Shen Lie can be smarter. He has not met those people. What I am most worried about right now is whether he will think that those people did it and he went in the wrong direction."
Guo Yu frowned: "Yeah."
"I hope he can arrive in the evening." Ouyang Huan said, yawning again.
He was really sleepy. He had not slept all night and was under intense interrogation. His nerves were also tense.
The wine in my hand was still warm, and the sip just now had the effect of being tipsy. It would be so refreshing if I could lean back on the pillow, cover myself with a soft quilt, and fall asleep in this state.
After a few yawns, Guo Yu stood up and left without staying any longer.
The sun was shining brightly outside the tent, and Guo Yu saw at a glance the large wooden frame in the open space a hundred feet away.
The six corpses were at least two feet off the ground, exposed to the scorching sun and blown by the wind from high places, swaying like tattered cotton wool.
Guo Yu's eyes narrowed slightly and became darker.
I gave you the opportunity, but you didn't cherish it. Your death today is your own fault.
He turned around and walked towards his tent. Later he would have to go to Yuanyi Valley to check the deployment. Shen Lie was a formidable opponent and he had to pay great attention and be on guard.
The sound of galloping horse hooves came from behind.
Before the horse could stop, the secret guard got off the horse and said, "Young Master Six! Our people were attacked in Yuanyi Valley!"
Guo Yu was surprised: "Is it Shen Lie?"
"It may not be Shen Lie. We didn't see each other. We only found corpses. We still don't know how many people came from the other party!"
"It must be Shen Lie!" Guo Yu said angrily.
It came so quickly!
Nearly ten people came around after hearing this, and Pei Xianhong, who was about to take a rest, also walked over quickly: "Where is our defense? Our deployment in Yuanyi Valley was not arranged yesterday!"
The secret guard who reported the news lowered his head.
Pei Xianhong's eyes widened, like bells: "Then how many of us died?!"
"Seven people."
"Trash!" Pei Xianhong yelled directly.
After cursing, he turned around and walked to the other side, quickly dispatching his men.
Guo Yu also asked people to call Ouyang Huan and Guo Ziyu. Some things must be adjusted immediately.
After thinking for a while, he called his men to stop and went to find Ouyang Huan himself.
Before stepping into the big tent, several more secret guards came back, bringing back two corpses first.
Pei Xianhong and others went up to check. Guo Yu looked at it from a distance and then went into the tent.
But he saw Ouyang Huan, who had been so sleepy with tears in his eyes just now, sitting on the bedside with a solemn expression.
"Mr. Ouyang." Guo Yu said.
"I heard it." Ouyang Huan said with a frown.
"I didn't expect the thief to catch up so quickly."
"Killing seven of us quietly, he may have come alone, otherwise he wouldn't have noticed it."
"Is there any way to get rid of it as soon as possible?"
Ouyang Huan was silent, paused, and looked at Guo Yu: "Sixth Young Master, it's difficult."
"Then let this thief be arrogant?"
Ouyang Huan said nothing, stood up and walked slowly, his hands behind his back.
Shen Lie is like a ferocious tiger, a young general with talent. Shen Lie, who was only thirteen years old, was able to fight alone against six secret guards including Pei Xianhong.
Everyone has the desire to win and jealousy. On the surface, the teachers who praise Shen Lie's young and promising talents are more or less holding back their enthusiasm in their hearts.
Therefore, during those two years, these teachers frequently asked Shen Lie to compete with him. During these back and forth comparisons, they made Shen Lie's skills even better, and he was especially good at defeating many with one person.
To deal with Shen Lie, even if it was a sneak attack, Ouyang Huan needed to have enough numbers to crush him before he dared to set up a formation.
But now, the role has been reversed.
They are in the light, the silence is in the dark, and the prey has become the hunter.
Ouyang Huan stopped and said in a deep voice: "The most suitable choice at the moment is for us to leave."
"Sir, what did you say?" Guo Yu said immediately, his voice cold.
"I said, leave," Ouyang Huan said in a deep voice, "We will retreat immediately and leave Shuangpo Gorge first."
"Sir," Guo Yu said with an ugly face, "You mean, Shen Lie scared us away before he even showed his face?"
"No, no, it's not that I was scared away by him," Ouyang Huan said solemnly, "Sixth Young Master, no matter how talented Shen Lie is, he still can't reach the sky. There are so many of us now, and Shen Lie can only do small things behind his back and can't get on the stage. , we have no reason to be afraid of him at all. But our plan for this trip is not to have a fight with Shen Lie, but to ambush and destroy him! Now the plan is broken and the goal has not been achieved, so we retreat because we have no need to stay. Already."
Guo Yu's expression looked better now.
Ouyang Huan felt relieved. Almost everyone knew that Guo Yu hated Shen Lie, but no matter how strong Guo Yu's personal emotions were, he could at least maintain the most basic thinking ability in the face of the overall situation.
After a while, Guo Yu said coldly: "Sir, this plan has been made in detail, but we still went to waste."
"Eight plans are hard to come by, this is normal." Ouyang Huan said.
Guo Yu nodded.
This trip to Shuangpo Gorge actually went very smoothly. All of Ouyang Huan's previous judgments were accurate. The encirclement and suppression campaign he made against Shen Lie was very feasible in Guo Yu's opinion.
Although it was aimed at Shen Lie, his eyes were actually on Shen Lie's subordinates.
Shen Lie is difficult to deal with, but Shen Lie has a weakness.
They made a great success this time and captured Chen Weimin and Lu Bao. Ouyang Huan adjusted his strategy in time and switched to frontal provocation to attract Shen Lie's attention. Two teams of troops from the rear followed behind, one side surrounded them and the other cut off their escape route.
If Shen Lie did not come out in full force and other men were hiding in the dens further back, then five or six men would need to be sent back and followed by the third team of soldiers and horses.
In short, the plan made this time must be to wipe out Shen Lie and his party.
As for Shen Lie, even if he could escape with his superb skills, he would be useless without Dai Yu, Du Xuan and others.
Shen Xu has been dead for many years, and Feng Ze's body is gone. Zhang Meng and Shitou have parted ways with Shen Lie long ago. The only people close to Shen Lie now are Dai Yu and Du Xuan.
If something happens to Dai Yu and Du Xuan, Shen Lie will completely betray his family and become completely useless.
As for such a Shen Lie, Guo Yu is fully confident that Ouyang Huan, who is good at attacking people's hearts and minds, can use various conspiracies to play with him, causing him to lose his fighting spirit and become like a walking corpse.
Everything should have been perfect, but the problem happened to be Shen Lie.
No one expected that Shen Lie would set his sights on them so quickly and pursue them personally.
"How is that possible?" Guo Yu couldn't figure it out. "The wilderness in southeastern Huazhou is too big. A single crater spans dozens of miles. The mountain roads in Shuangpo Gorge are even more rugged and there are many crisscrossing rivers. You have to explore after entering. For a long time, judging from the time Shen Lie appeared in Yuanyi Valley, he might have set off last night?"
Ouyang Huan smiled faintly: "Everything in the world is like a game of chess. Six young masters, let's go. There is no place to stay."
Guo Yu felt furious and sneered: "I know how to choose."
He turned and walked away.
When he came out and saw the six corpses, Guo Yu thought about it and quickly returned to his tent.
After a cup of tea, he called Pei Xianhong and ordered him to tie the paper he had just written on to a crossbow arrow and shoot it at the corpse.
The sharp arrow penetrated the lifeless chest and burst out with corrupted and bruised blood. It glowed strangely in the sun, turning purple and turning black.
Guo Yu stood with his hands behind his hands, looking at the corpse from a distance.
The breeze blew past his delicate brows, and his eyes were cold and gloomy.
Next to him were well-trained secret guards who were setting up camp.
"Shen Lie, you must keep the gift I am going to give you." Guo Yu said in a low voice.
