Regardless of the purpose of such tracking, Yun Ji and others gradually understood Niu Youdao's underlying intention.
There are powerful people in front of you to clear the way, and there are hidden stakes to leave timely reminder messages. It is relatively safe to follow behind, much safer than running around, and you can avoid bumping into people who are harmful to Niu Youdao to the greatest extent.
After being dumped by the forces of Yan State, they have been safe so far, which is somewhat related to this strategy.
They also realized that Niu Youdao would not act recklessly, he would always be calm-minded and would not lead them into danger easily.
Realizing this, they gradually felt at ease. No matter how Niu Youdao said what to do or where to go, they would no longer have any objections.
Of course, Niu Youdao's occasional unreliability still drove them a little crazy. He always wanted to catch animals from this world as mounts and refused to change despite repeated admonitions!
Sometimes he is calm and sophisticated, and sometimes he is so out-of-the-box that people are off guard.
Yunji and her son had stayed in Nanzhou not long ago, and they had been in contact with Niu Youdao for quite some time. The mother and son knew that Niu Youdao was not like this before. After coming here, he would occasionally become 'perverted', and occasionally
He will act wild and indulgent like a naughty boy.
However, the mother and son also felt that Niu Youdao was no longer as leisurely as he was in Nanzhou. His overall style was colder, much deeper and colder, he was decisive and ruthless in killing, and he was a bit more merciless...
Enemies met on a narrow road, and after following He Xinru for a while, he received news that a monk from Zhao had been spotted on the flank of Wei State.
Just like before, Niu Youdao quickly stopped He Xinru's movement, changed direction again, and moved towards the position of Zhao's troops.
After finding the Zhao monks, they did not directly greet them. Niu Youdao raised his hand to stop them. The few of them lurked and hid, observing the searching Zhao soldiers from a distance.
Yunji, who was hiding in the bushes, glanced at Niu Youdao beside her, and released her hand that was holding the branch to observe.
Knowing that Niu Youdao did not have any concerns about going up to him directly, unlike other forces, Niu Youdao's actions in Tiangu have already created a deadly feud with Zhao State. Unless there is Niu Youdao among these people, otherwise the previous
None of the methods worked, and it was impossible to use Yao Xianding's method again.
Wu Zhaoxing obviously had this idea, and asked Niu Youdao: "How do you find your people through them now? I'm afraid the previous method won't work, right?"
Niu Youdao didn't think he could have such good luck again. When he saw Zhao Guoren, he would meet someone like Xu Fuhua. While observing, he calmly replied, "Build roads across mountains and build bridges over rivers. Even if it doesn't work, you have to do it!"
Wu Zhaoxing: "Are they serious? Even if they can open their mouths, with so many people in Zhao State scattered, they may not know the location of the person you are looking for. How about lying and saying that you know 'Yao Xianding'? You find them gathered together."
It’s no use even trying, as soon as you show up, they will definitely fight you tooth and nail!”
"You stay here and wait for me to come back. If you have anything to do, leave and leave a sign." Niu Youdao explained, and the hand that was holding the branch to observe also gently released the branch to avoid making any noise.
Yunji: "Where are you going?"
"This time I will take care of it myself!" Niu Youdao dropped his words and quietly walked away.
The three people who were hiding watched his figure disappear into the depths of the jungle, and then looked at each other in confusion.
Wu Zhaoxing: "What does he want to do?"
Yun Ji: "I also want to know what he wants to do."
Yun Huan sighed, "This guy always gives people the impression that he is confused. Who knows what he wants to do, but since he said this, he must not be doing it randomly. We can just wait and see."
The mountains are steep and rolling.
Four monks from the Zhao Kingdom were searching in the mountains and forests. They had just reached the top of a mountain when they suddenly heard a faint voice, "Who is that person?"
The four people were alert when they heard the sound. They looked up to where the sound came from and saw a man standing on the rock on the top of the mountain with his hands behind his hands, staring at them coldly.
When they saw that they were dressed, they were from Piaomiao Pavilion. The four of them immediately ducked under the rock and bowed their hands in greeting, announcing their identities...
In the evening, Zhao's scattered searchers gathered again, but several people quietly left the gathering place.
"Guys, where are we going?" Chen Zifei, who was led away by four Zhao Guo sect monks, asked in surprise.
He was a casual cultivator recruited by Zhao State and it was difficult to refuse.
However, looking around, he found that he was being led further and further away. This was the third time he had asked the same question, and he was obviously feeling increasingly uneasy.
One person comforted him and said, "Brother Chen, please be patient. We'll know about the good things later. We..." The words stopped abruptly.
The five people stopped together and saw four people blocking the road in front of them, it was Niu Youdao and others.
"Niu Youdao!" Several people quickly warned.
The four people except Chen Zifei looked around quickly. They had not yet seen the Piaomiao Pavilion personnel who had agreed to meet. Unexpectedly, they met Niu Youdao first.
Niu Youdao looked like he had a headache and raised his hand to rub his eyes. After seeing the response signal given by Chen Fei, he gestured smoothly, "Be sharp!"
Wu Zhaoxing and three others suddenly stepped out and took action quickly.
After a while, the sound of fighting stopped, Wu Zhaoxing came from a distance, and a body was thrown at Niu Youdao's feet.
Three against four, the extra man knew he was outmatched and escaped. He was chased and killed by Wu Zhaoxing and brought back.
Niu Youdao tilted his head left and right to signal, and Wu Zhaoxing and the others quickly moved away and were on guard around them.
"Chen Zifei?" Niu Youdao asked.
Chen Zifei didn't realize what was going on, so he replied: "It's me, this is it?" He pointed at the body on the ground, not understanding what it meant.
Niu Youdao glanced at the corpse at his feet. These four people are members of the sect after all. They can keep some secrets for a while out of fear, but they may not be able to keep them secret forever. There are some secrets that he will not leak out easily. It is safest to kill and silence them.
.
He had no psychological burden for doing such a thing, and replied calmly: "I asked them to bring you here."
"..." Chen Zifei was stunned, with a face full of difficulty in being confident, "Will they listen to you?"
In terms of logical thinking, he is a bit unable to turn around. If he can really listen to you, why would you kill them?
Niu Youdao: "This is not your concern. I asked them to bring you here secretly. Do you think you were discovered when you left?"
Chen Zifei thought about it for a while and said hesitantly: "We casual cultivators are responsible for peripheral security, and I am one of them. They suddenly found me. When I left the area I was guarding, no one should have noticed me. As for whether there was anyone before they found me.
People know I can’t judge.”
Niu Youdao: "You can naturally get verification after you go back. Now I want to know the situation of the Zhao people."
Chen Zifei: "In what respect?"
Niu Youdao: "After the death of the chief elder of the three sects, will there be any impact on them?"
Chen Zifei nodded: "Yes! It has a great impact. Among the people you killed in Tiangu were not only the chief elders of the three sects, but also some main backbones. The current situation is that the three sects have no one who can really make the decision. The internal identities of each sect
How can people of similar status bow their heads and listen to whom? There is no one who can control them! Due to the situation, although they still unite and discuss things when encountering problems, they do not dare to make decisions easily on important matters, unlike those elders who
The sect’s internal policies are right and they have the power to take charge of things, but now they are afraid that something will go wrong and they will not be able to take responsibility.”
Niu Youdao: "They haven't thought about uniting with other forces?"
Chen Zifei nodded, "Yes! Someone proposed it, but no one dared to take the initiative, so he rejected it. First of all, he was afraid of being used as a spearman by other forces and was afraid of dying in vain. Secondly, he was afraid of bowing to other forces and not being able to pay back the job.
.They seem to have reached a consensus."
Niu Youdao: "What consensus?"
Chen Zifei: "Although I didn't say it explicitly, I can feel it. This trip to Tiandu Secret Realm, they no longer plan to compete for rankings. Self-preservation is the first priority. As long as they can make do with each other, it will be fine, because they
There is a reason to shirk responsibility." He stared at Niu Youdao, seemingly pointing.
Niu Youdao understood, "Put it on me, because it was my fault that caused their defeat?"
Chen Zifei hummed, "It's probably nothing else. That's what it means. There's no better reason than this. It can also help them protect themselves with less disputes here."
Niu Youdao pondered for a while, and the situation was similar to what he expected. He could not confirm it before. He wondered if there would be a person among the Zhao people who could make a strong integration. Now it is confirmed that no such capable person has appeared.
Feeling confident, he made a decision, "Okay, you shouldn't stay here for a long time. To make a long story short, I want to use you now..."
After clearly explaining the agreement such as tracking markers, he let Chen Zifei go.
This time, he didn't let Chen Zifei do any frame-up or anything like that, and he didn't let Chen Zifei throw dirt on the heads of overseas monks again. He just asked Chen Zifei to leave tracking marks along the way, and use the power of the Zhao people to help find the location of other forces.
.
After Wu Zhaoxing and others returned, Niu Youdao did not do anything to cover up the body and directly asked Yun Huan to destroy the body and eliminate traces of it.
After that, he did not flee for cover. Instead, he advanced towards the gathering place of Zhao State personnel and watched carefully from a distance.
During the observation period, Yun Ji had some leisure and couldn't help but ask, "How could the people of Zhao country listen to you and bring them here?"
This is not only a mystery in Chen Zifei's mind, but also a doubt that the three of them can't figure out. No matter how they think about it, they think it is impossible.
Niu Youdao did not tell the truth, but said casually, "It's just a little trick, it won't make it to the stage."
Little trick? The three of them looked at me and I looked at you, a little speechless. They wanted to know what kind of little trick could play such a role. It was a bit too magical!
However, after getting along for a while, we all got to know Niu Youdao's style. It was useless to ask Niu Youdao about things he didn't want to reveal. It was also impossible to threaten Niu Youdao to reveal the truth. He could only make random guesses.
One thing they also noticed was that the method of doing things this time was obviously different from the previous two times, and there were changes.
Take this closer look for example.
As the night passed, there was not much movement from the Zhao State personnel. There was just a commotion. The personnel searched the area and did not move away from the investigation.
It would be understandable if it was inconvenient to search at night, but after dawn, the Zhao people did not make any big moves, but continued their journey to the secret realm of Tiandu.
Watching the Zhao State personnel leave, Niu Youdao quietly concluded, "People on the Zhao State side are scattered."
