Shi Yong saw Chang Feng's reaction and asked aloud.
Regarding the lord's bodyguard, the bodyguard Chang Feng, who was particularly trusted, did not hide anything.
"It may be related to something we have been preparing for."
After speaking, Chang Feng remained silent for a while before continuing.
"I originally thought there would be no problem for our team to make this trip.
But if it is really what I said... once it breaks out, a thousand people will not be enough to fill the gap."
Seeing that Shi Yong's face was a little solemn, Chang Feng smiled and comforted him.
"Don't worry, it's probably not the case, otherwise the Lord wouldn't have sent just a thousand of us.
I should just check it out, the team after the change of clothes is not a vegetarian, sure!"
Shi Yong's lips moved, not knowing what to say.
Only send a thousand people? Brother, you don’t know that your army commander is also there!!!
Thinking of this, Shi Yong's face felt painful.
"What's wrong?"
"It's okay, it's okay. Let's be more vigilant. I always feel that the situation will not be that simple."
"Um."
Chang Feng nodded, removed the spiritual barrier, ended his rest, continued forward, changed his formation, and entered the No. 5 Mountain Range!
.........
Ye Xiu was walking alone in the wilderness, with a scimitar on her waist. Her body was straight, and every step seemed to be measured with a ruler, without any difference.
Ye Xiu's face was expressionless, and she glanced at the troops entering the mountain, then took steps, several meters in a step. The pace seemed not fast, but she was hanging tightly behind the troops.
If the staff of the brigade saw him, they would be shocked to find that Ye Xiu's steps are always one meter away from the scope of his map, and there is never any deviation. He will stop when the staff stops, and leave when the staff leaves, without any trace of the staff's impatience.
Stop and be exposed under the map.
Ye Xiu was hanging behind the army in such a leisurely manner. If you didn't know better, he looked like a wandering swordsman, practicing alone in this deserted wasteland.
Shi Yong and Chang Feng were walking between them with their troops. At this moment, Shi Yong was still a little confused, and his eyes were scanning around, looking for that familiar figure.
"Who are you looking for? I can help if it's convenient. I have a roster of a thousand people here."
"It's okay, I'll just take a look."
Hearing Chang Feng's words, Shi Yong was stunned, shook his head and refused.
Yes, there are rosters, and every soldier in the army has complete information registration. If Ye Xiu really hid in the army, he would not be able to hide it from the people around him, not even the captains and commanders.
Either Chang Feng is acting, or the legion commander is not in the army.
After understanding this, Shi Yong stopped looking and stayed in the army and advanced quickly. However, there was a faint purple light under his skin, as if something would break through the shackles of the skin and come outside at any time.
The sky is getting darker and darker, and the sun on Xianyang Palace has no difference in direction. What symbolizes the passage of time is the change in the brightness of the sun.
At this time, it was almost dusk, and the sun's light had dimmed. In this case, the dense forest, which was already poorly lit, looked even darker.
The visual distance is short, and it is already pitch black if it is a little further away. The strange-shaped branches and shrubs are like an evil ghost that only chooses people to eat.
Shi Yong felt as if a mutant beast might pounce out from the dark woods and shrubs at any time.
Although I am not afraid of mutant beasts, I am really worried in this dark and unknown environment.
"Turn on the lights!"
Chang Feng's eyes flashed and he shouted in a low voice. As soon as he finished speaking, some soldiers took out a rune lamp, embedded it in the beast soul and lit it up.
The rune lamp emits soft light, and its brightness is similar to that of a ten-watt energy-saving lamp.
Every once in a while, soldiers would take out rune lamps, light them up, and then pick them up with sticks.
However, because the branches are intertwined and the space is limited, many people have to hold them up with their hands to illuminate the surroundings.
The whole world seemed to become brighter, the light dispelled the darkness, and many people could not help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Under the shroud of light, the army traveled all night and did not stop until the sun lit up again in the sky. They simply cleared a camp and repaired it.
As the only two insiders, Shi Yong and Chang Feng were on edge all night, but thankfully, nothing happened throughout the night.
Although they encountered many mutant beasts, they were all normal. Normal people would not dare to attack this army and just run away.
Of course, this may be because they chose to pass through the middle and rear sections of the mountains, almost from the tail of the mountains. According to common sense, the mountains at this location are relatively safe.
"Huh, I guess we just made a false alarm."
"We haven't left the mountains yet, so we can't draw conclusions too early. It's better to take a rest, stay vigilant, and face the next mission."
"Well, the mountains get narrower as they go back, so we should be able to pass them soon."
There was no sound after the words fell, and the two of them took advantage of the precious time to rest for a while.
Behind them, Ye Xiu pulled out the knife from the mutant beast's neck, shook it, and drops of blood slid down the blade's surface, leaving a drop of blood behind.
Perhaps it was because Ye Xiu had restrained his momentum and aura, but outside the influence of the army's momentum, Ye Xiu was constantly harassed by mutant beasts.
However, these are abnormal and routine mutant beast attacks.
It was unusual because the mutant beasts that attacked and hunted were all at the third level, and none of the mutant beasts from the fourth level and above were seen.
I say normal because this abnormal situation has been going on for a long time and has been abnormal for a long time. It is not the abnormal situation that we want to explore this time.
The knife was sheathed again, and Ye Xiu sat cross-legged on the treetop, holding a piece of golden metal between his hands, and the essence of golden spiritual power contained in it was constantly swallowed by Ye Xiu.
In this process, Ye Xiu is like a piece of wrought iron being tempered, hammer after hammer, removing the bad and retaining the good, making its edge purer.
In the process, wisps of breath circulated between him, the golden metal, and the knife. The breath exuded by Ye Xiu was getting closer and closer to the knife.
Ye Xiu is becoming more and more like a knife. Maybe soon, if a knife is placed next to him, many people will not be able to tell whether it is him or... a knife.
The golden metal became darker and darker, and the knife and him became brighter.
........
After resting, the team continued to move forward and soon crossed the No. 5 Mountain Range and arrived at the No. 4 Valley.
In Valley No. 4, the appearance of the Ning'an army was immediately noticed by the scattered people all over the valley, and immediately attracted many people to watch.
As the crowd watched, Chang Feng led his troops diagonally across the valley, diagonally forward from the middle and rear end of the No. 5 Mountain Range, to the front edge of the No. 3 Mountain Range, and walked directly in without any hesitation.
Watching the Ning'an army enter, some people followed curiously and hung behind the army.
Some people dispersed because they had seen the Ning'an army entering the mountain, and they had also seen Chen Linbao and Lao Zhou in the Ning'an army.
