The spring breeze blew the leaves of the ancient trees, and the scout resting in the sentry post below felt very comfortable. At this sentry post, he only had to block one side to block the still cold spring breeze.
When he went on a mission in the past, he spent time in a giant tree. When the wind blew, he would fall from the tree. There were also some venomous snakes living in the trees. Many of his friends died from venomous snakes.
in hands.
A snake that can survive in such a cold environment in the northwest is naturally not an ordinary snake. Even if he is an expert like him, if he is bitten by a poisonous snake outside the northwest pass and cannot find the antidote medicine in time, he will only be able to survive.
Can die with hatred.
A sentry post like this one in the forest is the best shelter for him and his comrades in the surrounding area. It can protect them from wind and rain, and protect them from attacks by other poisonous insects and beasts.
From the traces on the sentry posts, it was clear that almost no one was around after these sentry posts were established. They didn't know what this force was doing by establishing so many sentry posts.
If it was just to scare them, then this force had succeeded. They were shocked when they saw the sentry post at first.
After a few days, these sentry posts that frightened them became their residence, and he also set up a layer of cordon around the sentry posts. This was the reason why he could sit back and relax and rest in the sentry posts.
Li Xiang opened the small map and saw that the enemy's scouts were very arrogant and lived directly on the sentry post in the Xiliang camp. This also gave Li Xiang less time to search for them.
The forest is very large, and there are many sentry posts in the Xiliang camp. There are a total of sixteen red dots on the small map, ten of which are independent, the remaining six are gathered together, and there are fewer yellow dots. They are scattered among those red dots.
In the periphery, it seems that the red dots are not clear about the existence of the yellow dots.
Two different forces!
The first thing Li Xiang wanted to surround was the red dot closest to the Xiliang camp. The enemy was motionless at the sentry post. He had not moved since last night and was probably resting at the sentry post.
The fifty swordsmen dispersed. The trees around the Xiliang camp were tall, blocking the sunlight in the sky. There were no weeds on the ground, only a layer of dead branches and leaves, which naturally had the effect of reducing noise. Among the giant trees
There is actually an undetectable line between them, connecting the bell. If Li Xiang hadn't been systematic, he might not have discovered the bell and the line.
As soon as the bells and lines ring, the scouts at the sentry post will run away immediately!
This guy is awesome!
The sight was very poor, with ancient trees blocking the sky. Li Xiang took a new horizontal knife and strode towards the sentry post. The surrounding soldiers had already completed the encirclement of the sentry post. Even if the sound woke up the people on the sentry post, he would not
Can't run away.
"Huh?" The scout lying in the sentry post heard the sound of branches breaking. It was not the sound of branches breaking on an ancient tree. Instead, he stood up from the sentry post and saw a tall figure in the dark woods.
A man who looked like a ferocious beast came over, and before he even got close, he felt very dangerous.
The big man in front of me is very dangerous, very dangerous.
He wanted to turn around and run. He was only a little over 1.6 meters tall and had a thin body, but he was very fast. His main skill was Qing Gong. There was basically no one with the same level of cultivation in the entire Black Tiger City who could match his speed.
But when he saw the perimeter of the sentry post, the sentry post was surrounded by tall men. The scout was a little desperate.
Cry!
Li Xiang pulled out the horizontal sword in his hand, and the scouts at the sentry post knew that they would definitely not be able to escape if they tried to escape.
"Sir, I am willing to surrender!" Wu Hao shouted loudly: "I am a scout of Black Tiger City, and I have a lot of information about Black Tiger City!"
Wu Hao doesn't want to die yet, he wants to live and live better than in Da Qian!
Li Xiang, who was about to kill him with his sword, was stunned. He didn't expect this guy to surrender like this. Generally, only those who are loyal and capable can serve as scouts.
If a weak person is allowed to serve as a scout, wouldn't all the information on his side be known to the enemy once he is caught?
When Wu Hao saw Li Xiang stopped in place without making a sound, he thought it was because Li Xiang didn't believe him, so he threw all the weapons in his hands out of the sentry post.
If the other party really wants to kill him, the most he can resist is to make the other party consume some energy. As for replacing one, don't think about it. Each of the big men around him puts a lot of pressure on him. He may be able to fight I've passed a few, but if I want to kill each other, it's a bit difficult.
"Sir, I have thrown down all my weapons!" Wu Hao said as he came down from the sentry post and raised his hands.
Li Xiang blinked. This guy seemed to really want to surrender, so he would keep it for now. He still didn't know the origin of this unit and needed a tongue!
"Take him down!" Li said to the two swordsmen beside him.
The two swordsmen stepped forward, but Wu Hao did not resist. Resistance usually does not end well, and he was not the kind of person who would die for Black Tiger City.
Joining Black Tiger City is just to make his life better outside the Northwest Pass. Why should he work hard for Black Tiger City?
Wu Hao did not resist and allowed the swordsman to capture him. When Li Xiang saw this, he stepped forward and came to the edge of the sentry post. A swordsman brought the weapon dropped by Wu Hao to Li Xiang's eyes. The exquisite horizontal sword, bow, and Arrow, a small dagger.
"The equipment is very complete. It seems that your force is quite rich!" The price of these things outside the Northwest Pass is not low.
Wu Hao, who was holding his hands down, put aside the pain and said flatteringly: "Sir, these belong to you now. As long as you don't kill me, I can do whatever you want!"
"Are you afraid of death?" This was the first time Li Xiang saw someone so afraid of death.
Wu Hao nodded hard: "I am very afraid of death. Whatever you want to ask, sir, I know everything I can tell you!"
"Uh..." Li Xiang's head hurt a little: "How did you become a scout like this?"
Wu Hao said: "They saw that I was good at running fast, so they asked me to be a scout. A scout has a high salary and a high degree of freedom. As long as I am more cautious, it is much safer than on the battlefield, so I agreed to be a scout!"
"Don't they know you are so afraid of death?" Li Xiang was a little curious.
Wu Hao said with some pride: "I have never been surrounded, so I don't need to surrender. I didn't expect that Sir, you are so strong that you can avoid the bell array I set up around me. This is my bell array in the northwest." It was the first time someone broke it outside the customs!"
"Are you from that force?" Li Xiang suddenly asked.
"Black Tiger City!" Wu Hao said immediately: "I was sent out to check if there are any other forces in this forest!"
"After discovering these sentry posts in the forest, our people kept following the sentry posts to inquire. This time, there were a total of 500 troops coming from Black Tiger City. There were 16 scouts who came to the forest with me. .
And the camp leader Meng Xuan has sent scouts to ask for reinforcements from Black Tiger City. Sir, this is all the information I know!" After Wu Hao finished speaking, he looked at Li Xiang, and he could see that Li Xiang was not a murderous person. , this is an eye skill of their Thousand Thieves Sect.
"..." Li Xiang didn't know what to say. The guy in front of him was good enough. He would tell everything he knew after asking, and he would sell his old club without any hesitation.
"Let him go!" Li Xiang said to the two people on his left and right, and then asked Wu Hao: "What is your name, and why are you here outside the Northwest Pass?"
As soon as the two soldiers let go, Wu Hao felt the breath of freedom. He loosened his arms and heard Li Xiang's question and replied: "The younger one's surname is Wu, with the single character "Hao". Wu Hao is originally a disciple of the Da Qian Qian Thieves Sect!"
"Thousand Thieves Sect!" Li Xiang lowered his head and saw Wu Hao's figure: "Thousand Thieves Sect disciples, it seems they have touched things that should not be touched!"
"Well, I ran to the Xuantian Sect and stole the Xuantian Sect's Huntian Wuji Kung Fu. After I got it, I had no choice but to run outside the Northwest Pass!" Wu Hao raised his head and smiled bitterly.
"It's so hard to laugh!" Li Xiang patted Wu Hao on the shoulder: "Fuck with me, and I guarantee that your life will be better!"
Li Xiangzai knew that Wu Hao was a disciple of the Thousand Thieves Sect, so he decided to take Wu Hao under his control. He would not let Wu Hao hold any important position, let alone enter the army. If this guy went to the battlefield , it is very possible to turn around and sell him.
There is a very interesting sect in the Qian Thieves Sect. No one knows where their sect address is. The disciples of the Thousand Thieves Sect each have their own stealing skills. What these guys like to do most is to rob the rich and give to the poor.
Every year, some wealthy people will be patronized by these guys, but they will still leave most of their property to them. Of course, there are some notorious guys who may have their families ruined.
There are also some guys who like to steal the techniques of various major sects and are hunted down by various major sects.
The disciples of the Thousand Thieves Sect were hunted down in Daqian regardless of whether they were white or underworld. This is probably the reason why the Thousand Thieves Sect does not have a sect address.
The disciples of the Thousand Thieves Sect have been beaten and killed for many years, but not many of them have been caught!
What Li Xiang was interested in was Wu Hao's skills. Each of the disciples of the Thousand Thieves Sect had their own unique skills. If the Xiliang scouts learned a skill or two from Wu Hao, these skills might allow them to survive when fighting enemy scouts in the future. Come down.
When Wu Hao heard Li Xiang's words, a bright smile appeared on his face: "Thank you for taking me in!"
It's a fool's errand with Black Tiger City, and it's a fool with the big man in front of me, as long as he's still alive.
Wu Hao is only loyal to himself!
"Take your things!" Li Xiang pointed to the weapon in the swordsman's hand: "Follow me and go hunting!"
"Hunting?" Wu Hao was confused, but when he saw the weapons and longbows in the swordsman's hands, the big man actually returned these things to him, Wu Hao quickly took the things with him.
After following Li Xiang in the forest to see the two cups of tea, Li Xiang waved his hand and Wu Hao and his swordsmen all stopped. Li Xiang glanced at a person not far away hiding among the dead branches and leaves.
As soon as he stretched out his hand, the swordsman on the side handed over the long bow and arrows. The scout among the dead branches and leaves saw the direction where Li Xiang's bow and arrows were pointed.
brush!
It suddenly bounced up and scattered some warm leaves around. Wu Hao was stunned. He didn't even notice anyone in that place. How did this big man see it?
Whoosh!
The long arrow passed through the fluttering leaves and hit the scout's knee accurately. The running scout fell to the ground. The swordsmen rushed forward without Li Xiang saying anything.
With the long knife on his neck, the captured scout looked coldly at the people surrounding him. There was no fear in his eyes, but instead he was unusually ferocious.
"Do you know him?" Li Xiang asked Wu Hao, pointing to the scout on the ground. Wu Hao took one look at him and smiled: "Yes, he is one of the top scouts of the Third Army. This guy even snatched three rabbits from me.
Two pheasants, if it weren't for the fact that they couldn't beat him, I would have killed him long ago!"
The scout lying on the ground raised his head when he heard Wu Hao's voice: "Wu Hao, you actually betrayed Black Tiger City!"
Wu Hao said with a smile: "I have always been loyal to Black Tiger City, how can I betray you?"
"Traitor!" The scout looked at Wu Hao fiercely: "Thousand thieves are bastards and rebels by nature. I'm really worried about accepting your power!"
"So much nonsense!" Li Xiang said: "Surrender or die?"
"Surrender?" the scout laughed loudly: "The troops of the Third Army are on their way, I'm waiting for you underground..."
In a flash of cold light, Prime Minister Li's horizontal sword had been unsheathed, and it easily passed through the leader of the scouts: "There's so much nonsense, pick up your things and go!"
Wu Hao glanced at the scout whose body was in a different place and touched his neck. Fortunately, he didn't resist before.
Li Xiang rushed to where the next scout was. This scout was lying on the sentry post like Wu Hao. They rarely moved during the day, and night was when they went out.
When the swordsmen surrounded him, the guy at the sentry post had just woken up. This guy was as brainwashed as the guy in front of him. Naturally, Li Xiang wouldn't keep it. Another head rolled to the ground, and everything on his body
Stripped naked, the remaining carcasses are food for other beasts in the forest.
After working with Li Xiang for a day, Wu Hao developed a fear of Li Xiang. None of their Black Tiger City scouts could escape the pursuit of the big man. No, to be precise, the big man knew their location very well!
The locations chosen by their scouts were all chosen temporarily by themselves, and there would be no leakage of secrets.
Could it be that the big man has a tree demon under his command?
But even the tree demon can't do this!
This forest is very huge, and it is very difficult for the tree demons to communicate with the spirits of the trees.
When the last six people were killed in the siege by the Xiliang swordsmen, the sky had darkened, the forest was silent, and the Black Tiger City's scouts in the forest announced that all of them were destroyed.
Wu Hao lowered his posture and walked in the forest behind Li Xiang. He answered whatever Li Xiang asked.
After walking in the forest for an hour, the sky turned completely dark. Li Xiang relied on the small map to successfully return to the Xiliang camp.
At this time, the Xiliang camp was hundreds of times larger than the camp at the beginning. A five-meter-high city wall was like a giant beast lying on the ground, and the light on the wall was attracting the Xiliang people outside.
When Wu Hao saw the city wall, he was stunned. There was actually a city in this forest!
Like other scouts in Black Tiger City, he originally thought that the people in the iron mining area were just troops sent by other forces, but he did not expect that the other party actually built a city in the forest. Perhaps, they were not what he and others thought.
This is an independent force!
"Open the door!"
The big man guarding the city wall shouted, and the city gate slowly opened...
