Chapter 158: Latent

Time flew quickly, and soon came to the seventh day of February, and the hazy drizzle on this day, like smoke and mist, slightly wet the clothes.

The Devil Weeps and the others hid in the forest, carefully observing the camp in the distance.

Over there, there's a land of giants and snowmen.

The snowmen stood guard and patrolled diligently, while the clansmen of the ancient witch clan, the small ones were playing, the big ones were exercising, some were sharpening their weapons, and some were sleeping and resting, and they didn't look like they were preparing for war.

"It's really a drag. Not far away, in a bush, Luo Jiacheng couldn't help but mutter.

"That's right. The voice of the ghost crying came from here, and it was not the ghost crying that spoke, but the big mouth wrapped around the scabbard, and it couldn't help but hum softly, and a jasmine song with a faint sadness slowly spread.

"Shut up. The ghost cried and scolded quietly with a black face, closed his mouth with a big mouth, and snorted twice in dissatisfaction.

A crimson snake came out of it, and after the ghost cried, it turned into a human form, and it was a red fairy.

"Xiu'er, how is it?" Nangong asked in a low voice.

The Red Fairy took a slight breath, and then replied, "Another group of people went to the woods to the east, and this group of people probably had more than fifty ancient witch people, and more than 300 snowmen, and they were still pushing carts. Counting yesterday's, there are already more than a dozen. ”

"Has anyone come back from the people who went over there?" asked the ghost again.

"Yes. The red fairy nodded and replied, "And they all came back with a lot of wood or carrying or pushing it." ”

The group went to the woods, and sure enough, it was for logging. Wood has a wide range of functions, it can be used to build woodland, it can be used to make siege equipment, it can be used to make guns and arrows, it can be used for burning, and it is a very extensive and important resource.

These Wu armies came from the north, and naturally lacked wood, so as soon as they set up camp here, they couldn't wait to organize people to cut down wood nearby to obtain resources.

"This information came back. Ghost Cry said lightly.

Da Lang hurriedly knocked on the jade talisman and reported the situation back, and after a while, the jade talisman shook a few times, and Da Lang said: "Master, the rear has received our information, and they let us continue to stare at the camp." ”

The ghost cried and nodded, and several people fell silent again, staring at the camp opposite.

Gradually, the sky darkened, and in the hazy spring rain, the opposite camp lit up with fire.

Ghost Cry and the others didn't dare to come out, and just now, another group of snowmen patrolled in front of them.

The big battle is imminent, and the scouts on both sides are staggered, and from time to time there are sounds of fighting, and then chase each other. The person who is found either escapes, or is killed, or counter-kills, all kinds of situations.

The sky has completely darkened, and there are fewer snowmen patrolling.

Ghost Cry They took out Bigu Dan and Qing Shui, and hurriedly dealt with it.

Bigu Dan is produced by Kunlun, the taste is still good, the effect of filling the stomach is also very good, and it can also reduce excretion, in the face of the current situation of the ghost crying them, it is simply an artifact, at least there is no need to worry about food, and it also reduces the chance of being found because of eating and drinking.

Before I knew it, it was late at night, and several people took turns keeping vigil.

The ghost cried and lay on the ground, covered with a layer of dead leaves, and slept soundly. Suddenly, someone shook him gently.

When he awoke, it was pitch black in the forest, and only the faint silhouette of a human figure could be seen.

"Big Brother Ghost. "Listen to the voice, it's Caiwei's.

"What's wrong?" Ghost Cry asked in a low voice.

"There's movement. Cai Wei whispered.

In my ears, there was the sound of drizzle, and the whole feeling was damp.

Circles of ripples rippled on the ground, collecting information about Zhou Zhou, and suddenly, the ghost cried and broke out in a cold sweat.

A group of snowmen are sneaking towards this side, and now they are within thirty paces of the southeast side.

"Wake them up separately. Ghost Cry kept her voice as low as possible.

After waking up the others, the ghost cried and whispered, "Listen to my bell." ”

Then, he tried his best to hide himself, put his right hand on the handle of the knife, and held a flying knife in his left hand, feeling a little chaotic in his heart.

There are not many snowmen in this group, only about twenty people.

If Devil Cries and they do it together, they can solve this group of snowmen in an instant, but the question is how did this group of snowmen find them, and whether they found out or someone else also found out, whether they answered, and whether they were just pawns to find their way.

None of this is clear to the ghost cry.

He just made a decision in his heart, as soon as he made a move, he must be decisive, kill them and leave, and go through the woods as fast as possible to the south, where there is a big black answer, as long as they get on the horse, they can escape smoothly.

The slightly moist dead leaves, crushed by the thick soles of the feet, made a crunching sound. The branches that had just been pulled out of the bud rubbed against the fur and rustled, and these sounds came from far and near.

The red fairy who was wrapped around the tree and showed his original form was anxious, and quickly spit out the snake letter, opened his mouth, showing his fangs, and was ready to kill a person at any time.

Da Lang held his breath, he couldn't help but think of what happened to a team of scouts yesterday after they were discovered, and his pupils shrank.

Cai Wei looked a little nervous, the green tendons on the back of her hand burst out, and she pulled the green bamboo sword tightly. This is her first time on the battlefield, although she has already experienced fighting, but the battlefield is obviously different from fighting.

Nangong seemed much calmer, she was also experiencing the battlefield for the first time, but an almost desperate experience in the country of Wandao was very similar to the current situation, so she skillfully adjusted her body, trying to hide herself while being able to draw her sword comfortably and smoothly.

is also calm Luo Jiacheng, who has the advantage of age and knowledge.

Closer, closer.

The distance between the two sides was no more than five steps, and Nangong Caiwei and the others could even hear each other's heavy breathing, but they never heard the familiar bell ringing.

Four steps, three steps......

The footsteps gradually faded away, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts.

Oni Cry remained motionless, his long, bright eyes slightly raised, and his breathing gradually recovered.

He was right, the other party didn't notice them at all, and these snowmen who came in were just bait.

The footsteps grew farther and farther until they were faintly audible.

"Prepare for a break. Ghost Cry finally spoke.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a fight suddenly broke out a hundred paces away from the southeast.

The flames rose and the figures swayed.

After a few sounds of weapons colliding, the sound of fighting stopped, and several people were knocked down by a group of snowmen and pressed towards the direction of the camp.

"Big brother ghost, let's not do it. ”

Looking at the trajectory of those snowmen's movements, it is estimated that they will pass by the ghost crying and them, and when the time comes, the distance between them will be reduced from a hundred steps to twenty or thirty steps, such a distance, it is very sure that these people can be saved.

"Don't act rashly. Ghost Cry whispered.

It is possible to save it, but it is also possible not to come down. What's more, even if it is saved, the gains outweigh the losses.

Ghost Cry didn't know how many people like them had narrowed the distance to the camp of the Ancient Witch Clan, but it was certainly not much. More than once there have been messages from the rear, telling them not to reveal their whereabouts. Once their whereabouts are revealed, the Terrans have one less important monitoring point, which is much more than the loss of a few dead.
