The two women took off their clothes and entered the bathtub respectively. Under the fumigation of the dense water vapor, their pretty faces were quickly covered with a layer of mist, making them even more attractive.
In addition to the two of them, the other female members of the Zhou family also hid in the tent to take a bath and wipe themselves. The men jumped directly into the river to take a bath, and even played a fish-fishing competition. From time to time, bursts of cheers could be heard in the camp.
and laughter.
However, Xia Yu did not have such luck. He still patrolled the perimeter and did not return to the camp until it was completely dark.
When the shift was handed over at Dong Shuai's side, Dong Shuai handed him a pot of ale and said with a smile: "Brother Yuwen, thank you for your hard work. This pot of wine is specially reserved for you!"
"Thank you!" Xia Yu took the ale and said, "Although there is a river in this valley, it is a good place to camp, but the surrounding area is too closed. If something happens, there are only two roads, and a vigil must be kept at night.
Brother, please be careful."
"Don't worry, I've already told you!" Dong Shuai smiled and lowered his voice, "Actually, I don't agree to camp here, but my boss has decided, and I have no choice but to be more careful."
Xia Yu nodded and smiled. Dong Shuai was right. Their mission was only to protect the owner's personal and property safety, but they had no way of dictating the owner's decisions. When encountering such a situation, they could only listen to the owner's arrangements. Xia Yuxue
After studying the art of war, he knew that this kind of narrow terrain is the most taboo for military strategists. If someone blocks the exits at both ends and attacks from the mountains on both sides, the camp will be very dangerous. But after all, it is just a wealthy family moving, not
real war, just
Xia Xiayu took advantage of the patrol time to go to the mountains on both sides to take a look. When he saw that everything was normal and there were no signs of an ambush, he was slightly relieved.
Dong Shuai added: "I know that the terrain here is not suitable for large groups of people to camp. I have taken on many bodyguard missions before. These things are the experiences passed down by the previous rangers. Brother Yuwen is so young that he can't imagine that he understands these things.
, it’s really awesome!”
Xia Yu smiled slightly and said modestly: "I don't really understand, I just feel like it's too closed here and it's not very good."
"That's true. The senior rangers also said that it's best to camp in an open place..." Dong Shuai said casually and then smiled, "Brother Yuwen, I heard that you were born as an Orion in the Nanluo territory, but I
Seeing that you are handsome and knowledgeable, you really don’t look like a simple Orion."
Xia Yu smiled and said: "My ancestors were not hunters. I left a lot of books at home. I was forced to read a lot by my elders when I was a child. But after all, my family has fallen into decline. If we need to make a living, we can only rely on the bows and arrows in our hands."
Live."
Dong Shuai nodded and asked no more questions. In Xuantian Continent, there are too many examples of families falling into decline like what Xia Yu said. Although what he said was vague, Dong Shuai himself could figure out almost all of them.
Something that interests him.
Dong Shuai was very curious about Xia Yu's amazing archery and light skills. But that kind of thing was the biggest secret of a monk, so he couldn't ask casually, so he had no choice but to give it up.
The two chatted casually for a while, and Xia Yu returned to his tent. It happened that Qiao Xiaopang also came back from setting up his formation.
Xia Yu threw the ale to him and asked, "Did anything happen in the team today?"
Qiao Xiaopang stretched out and said, "As usual, nothing special! The woman you are thinking about has never appeared... I think she may not be in the team..."
Xia Yu shook his head, "I have an intuition... She should be in the team..." The night in the valley was very quiet. It was a sunny day in the first half of the night, and the bright white moonlight shone on the ground, as if it was covered with a blanket.
There was a layer of hoarfrost. But in the second half of the night, the clouds in the sky began to thicken, and the moonlight was quickly blocked by the clouds. The valley was pitch black, with only the ashes of the campfire following the waves.
The gentle breeze flickers with a faint red light.
In the tent, Xia Yu was meditating with his eyes closed.
Fatty Qiao snored and slept soundly.
Suddenly, he stood up and frowned: "Yuwen! The mechanism I arranged has been touched!"
As soon as Xia Yu opened his eyes, Qiao Xiaopang suddenly shouted again, "Everyone has been touched! All of them!" These devices of Qiao Xiaopang were arranged far away from the camp, which was different from the last time he went to Baihu Cave.
The same thing as the things arranged on the upper level, as long as someone touches it, he will feel it. If only one mechanism is touched, it may be accidentally touched by some animals, but all mechanisms
Kandu was touched at the same time, which can only mean one thing, everyone is surrounded!
Xia Yu immediately leaned on the ground and listened with his ears pressed tightly to the ground. Qiao Xiaopang also followed suit and lay down.
They both raised their heads at the same time, both looking surprised.
"It's the sound of horse hooves!"
Xia Xia Yu quickly stood up, rushed out of the tent and shouted: "There is an emergency! Everyone, get up! Get ready!"
This voice immediately alerted the night watchman. A ranger named Liang ran over and asked: "Brother Yuwen, what's wrong with you? What's going on?"
Dong Shuai also ran out of the tent and asked: "What's going on? What are you arguing about?"
"Boss, brother Yuwen said there is an emergency! But I haven't received any news at all!" said the ranger named Liang.
Qiao Xiaopang had also got out of the tent and shouted: "All my formations have been touched! It must be the enemy! And there are quite a few of them! We are surrounded!"
"Ah? Could it be that he was touched by an animal?" The ranger named Liang still didn't believe it. "Don't we still have several brother branches outside? Didn't they call the police?"
Xia Yu was too lazy to be wordy and said to Dong Shuai: "Lie down on the ground and listen, there is the sound of horse hooves!" Dong Shuai was startled, and quickly lay on the ground, listening carefully with his ears. His strength was already at the fifth level of the Xuan level, and his ears
Very sensitive, he soon heard the faint sound of horse hooves. Judging from the sound, the person coming was probably less than ten miles away from here, but because there were mountains around him, his view was blocked.
line, so it is not visible at all in the valley.
Dong Shuai stood up and said to the ranger named Liang: "Go and inform the brothers to prepare for battle!"
Later, Dong Shuai said to Xia Yu and Qiao Xiaopang: "Brother Qiao, be prepared to protect the tent in the middle! Brother Yuwen, your main task for a while is to protect him! I will inform the Zhou family right now!"
News of the enemy's arrival spread, and the entire camp suddenly became chaotic. At this moment, faint torches could be seen in the distance, and the sound of horse hooves became increasingly clear.
