The group of Black Fire Birds heard the whistle below, which was a special password used by the warriors driving the mounts. Although the two groups of Black Fire Birds came from the Yao Family and the Yao Family respectively, there was not much difference in the passwords.
The Black Firebirds that have been strictly trained react immediately after hearing the order and fly down from the sky almost immediately. These Black Firebirds are well trained, even if twelve huge Black Firebirds land together
, and there will be no interference between them.
Moreover, when they flap their wings, they will deliberately wrap their bodies with beast energy to prevent the warriors on their backs from being affected.
Long before the signal was sent, Duan Yueyao had already seen that the ferocious beasts below were about to collapse at the first touch. They dispersed and fled into the mountains without even making any effective resistance. Captain Lin did not send anyone to pursue them, but only symbolically.
After chasing and searching around, he recalled the people.
Duan Yao and his two daughters, who were standing quietly on the back of Xuan Huo Niao, exchanged glances inadvertently. Yao Qiu'er nodded slightly, indicating that he had understood the problem Duan Yueyao said.
With the Xuan Fire Bird's whereabouts and everyone's attention focused below, Duan Yueyao shook her head gently, signaling the other party not to reveal any flaws. Yao Qiu'er also nodded immediately to show that she understood.
When the Black Fire Bird was about to land, Captain Lin had already rushed forward, bowed and said: "Miss Yueyao, please don't worry, these ferocious beasts are vulnerable. We are on our way now and it is inconvenient to delay here. We will gather together later.
With the strength of the warriors here, we will be able to eliminate all the surrounding ferocious beasts in a short time."
With a satisfied smile on his face, Duan Yueyao said approvingly: "What Captain Lin said is true. If we don't encounter strong resistance, we don't need to get too entangled with them."
Knowing clearly that Captain Lin was just pretending to be a snake to him, Duan Yueyao still dealt with him in a friendly manner, and there was no problem in his demeanor or tone. Even Yao Qiu'er next to him couldn't help but admire him, because he had just listened to Duan Yueyao's words.
After analysis, it still feels like Duan Yueyao doesn't know anything.
Captain Lin still looked very respectful on the surface, but when he lowered his head, there was a cold smile on his face. He quickly turned around and looked behind him, and said: "Send two teams of people to guard the perimeter, and the others will rest here.
An hour, and then we will continue to the next city without stopping."
Captain Lin raised his hand and was about to point at a small group of people not far away. Before he could speak, Duan Yueyao had already taken the lead and said: "Captain Lin, Miss Yueyao and I have been traveling continuously for the past few days. It's really hard."
It needs to be freshened up. So I need to ask you for some manpower to guard, I hope it won't bring you any trouble."
Hearing what Duan Yueyao said, Captain Lin couldn't help but look up in confusion. What he saw was Duan Yueyao's expectant look. There was nothing special about him, so his expression softened slightly.
With a "haha" smile, Captain Lin immediately said: "Everyone has been busy traveling these days, and we have indeed wronged the two young ladies. I will arrange for manpower to prepare a place for you to bathe and freshen up."
While speaking, Captain Lin's eyes flashed with *, and he immediately said: "The safety of the two ladies is more important, I think it's up to me..."
"Captain Lin is responsible for everyone's safety. How can I bother you to take care of us personally? If I don't select a group of people, I think Captain Lin won't mind."
After Duan Yueyao finished speaking, Captain Lin was slightly startled, with a hint of unwillingness and disappointment flashing across his face. But then he nodded with a reluctant expression and said: "Since it is Miss Yueyao's wish, then I will
To obey.”
Turning around with a smile, Duan Yueyao seemed to be pointing around casually. In a moment, almost fifty people were targeted by Duan Yueyao. When he first saw the people Duan Yueyao had targeted, Captain Lin looked slightly a little confused.
Change, but when he looked at him, he showed doubts again, his eyes narrowed and he stared at Duan Yueyao closely.
After confirming the person in charge of guarding, Duan Yueyao seemed to see Captain Lin accidentally, and couldn't help but asked in surprise: "What's wrong, Captain Lin? Do you think it's inconvenient to leave these people to me? If there is any problem, I will change it."
That’s all for batches.”
Seeing the relaxed smile on Duan Yueyao's face, Captain Lin hesitated for a while, and then nodded solemnly and said: "Since Miss Yueyao thinks these people are suitable, let them be at your disposal. The others will follow me to search the perimeter."
Without any more nonsense, Duan Yueyao turned around and walked towards the largest house in the village. It seemed that the person who originally lived in this house must have a high status in the village.
The room was a little messy. It should have been hurriedly flipped by the owner when he escaped. It can be used after tidying it up. Duan Yueyao gave some casual instructions, and most of the warriors dispersed and guarded the outside, leaving only a few names.
Female warriors boil water in the room.
Even if you are not an alchemy or weapon refiner, most warriors will always carry a flame crystal with them when they go out. With this object, it is not only convenient to light a fire, but it is also very fast to boil water for cooking. In a short time, a large basin of hot water will be ready.
Burn well.
Not needing anyone else to serve her, Duan Yueyao politely "invited" everyone in the room out. In the end, only she and Yao Qiu'er remained in the room.
Duan Yueyao walked gently to the window and opened a slight crack in the window. Duan Yueyao carefully looked at the situation outside, especially the expressions and conditions of the warriors who were left outside. After a while, he gently closed the window and closed it for a moment.
He breathed a sigh of relief.
"Sister Yueyao, do you have any special intention in doing this? Have you just identified someone who does not belong to Captain Lin's side?" Seeing Duan Yueyao's relaxed expression, Yao Qiuer couldn't help but ask.
.
Nodding, then shaking her head, Duan Yueyao breathed softly and said: "I did have this intention, but it was not all. Captain Lin had already had murderous intentions at that moment, but he still held it back in the end. It should be
I don’t want to ruin the whole plan.”
Yao Qiu'er observed the conversation just now and didn't notice anything special. It was only because she understood the true relationship between them that she could vaguely detect some abnormalities. Duan Yueyao made the request politely. Captain Lin seemed reluctant, but in the end he did not violate it.
Who would have expected that behind the seemingly calm conversation just now, there would be such a murderous intention hidden. If it were not for Duan Yueyao's great trust, Yao Qiu'er would still not dare to believe that a warrior trained by his family like Captain Lin could actually
He would really do something that betrays the Lord.
Duan Yueyao carefully tested the water temperature and then slowly took off her clothes. Seeing this scene, Yao Qiu'er was slightly startled and couldn't help but asked: "Sister, do you really want to take a bath? We are in deep danger now. Let's simply wash up."
Just one click will do."
Shaking his head, Duan Yueyao said: "Qiu'er, remember, the more you are in this situation, the more calm you need to be. Since we proposed to freshen up and the other party also created conditions for us, then we must freshen up seriously.
You must not let the other party see any flaws, otherwise it will only make the other party alert in advance."
Nodding helplessly, Yao Qiu'er quickly took off her clothes and followed Duan Yueyao into the bathtub.
"Although the situation is very bad, fortunately there are still some people who belong to our side, so I must find a way to save them." Duan Yueyao said while raising his wet hand and pointing outside the house.
"You mean the more than 60 people outside are all on our side, which seems to be less than a quarter." Yao Qiu'er asked with a frown.
"Not all of those people belong to us, some of them are people under Captain Lin."
"Then why?..."
As soon as the words came out, Yao Qiu'er also understood. If the person selected did not have Captain Lin's subordinates, it was obvious that Duan Yueyao had noticed it. It would not be easy for the other party to notice it like now.
"Let's finish washing as soon as possible, but don't go out yet. Let's delay here for a while."
"Why is this? Didn't you say that our hope lies in the broad city ahead?" Yao Qiu'er frowned. She felt that the gap between herself and Duan Yueyao was not small. Even after knowing the cause and effect, she still couldn't guess the other party's intention.
.
Seeing the confusion on Yao Qiu'er's face, Duan Yueyao said while scrubbing her body: "Remember that Captain Lin just said that he would rest here for an hour and then set off directly to the next city?"
Seeing Yao Qiu'er nodding, he continued: "That's it, half a day has not passed since we set off in the morning, and we borrowed the Xuanhuo Bird to travel, how could we be tired? He arranged this to solve the final problem
A group of people who are loyal to you and me."
Yao Qiu'er's eyes flashed slightly, and she couldn't help but say: "So Sister Yueyao will transfer those people to protect us, so that Captain Lin will have no chance to send those people out to die. This is really a good idea."
Listening to Yao Qiu'er's praise, Duan Yueyao's expression did not improve at all, but there was a hint of worry in her eyes.
At this moment, a rapid warning sound sounded far outside the house, followed by continuous alarm signals. Hearing this sound, Duan Yueyao stood up suddenly and said with a slightly cold face: "Mr. Lin, what are you doing?"
I can’t wait any longer, I don’t even care about myself, please put on your clothes quickly!”
The last words were naturally directed at Yao Qiu'er beside them. The two women jumped out of the bathtub neatly and quickly put on their clothes.
At this moment, there were fighting, angry shouting and other noisy sounds outside. It was obvious that the warriors responsible for guarding outside had already engaged the enemy.
Yao Qiu'er, who was fully dressed, pulled out her double thorns and was about to rush out, but was grabbed by Duan Yueyao with a solemn look on her face. When she turned around to look, she saw Duan Yueyao shaking her head with a bitter look on her face and saying: "Don't go.
, the man surnamed Lin dared to do this, he must have the intention to kill his own men as well.
All we can do now is to endure until there is an opportunity to reverse the situation."
Listening to the screams that kept ringing outside, Yao Qiu'er's hand struggled slightly, but in the end it hung down helplessly.
