However, what was beyond everyone's expectations was that the horse thief did not attack when the campers were panicking. They still just rushed back and forth around the periphery to show off.
Food and grass are the top priority, so the cavalry team did not dare to go forward and pursue it. They could only arrange a defensive line and wait for the horse thief to attack.
The two sides remained in a stalemate until the night.
The night in the grassland is very cold.
The cavalry team had a large bonfire, and everyone was sitting around the bonfire. The fire light shone on everyone's faces with different looks.
The farmer in charge of the carriage was nervous and looked around at any time. They were most afraid that the horse thief would take advantage of the night to raid.
The soldiers of the cavalry team looked solemn, and the tragic death of their comrades made them angry, but the lack of strength made them helpless.
The sisters of Dingjian Pavilion looked more indifferent, they also hated the horse thief, but they had a faint sense of anticipation.
The first time I performed the task, I encountered such an exciting thing. The Young Pavilion Master was right. The flowers in the greenhouse do not grow up. Only through wind and rain can they thrive.
No matter how strong the horse thief is, it is nothing but a mob. If they dare to come, they will definitely want them to look good.
As for Zhou Fei, he has fallen asleep.
The Guardian God will be on the side, unless a barbarian comes in person, no one can hurt Zhou Fei.
Soon, the sisters of Dingjian Pavilion were a little unbearable, and went back to sleep in their tents. The task of vigil was handed over to the cavalry.
In the middle of the night, Zhou Fei was suddenly awakened by a sharp neigh.
He rubbed his eyes and sat up, and saw a Tsing Yi floating back from outside the camp, without touching the ground, his clothes fluttering.
Zhou Fei raised his hand to say hello to her, but the other party didn't pay attention to him, and went back to the tent.
Zhou Fei made a cut and lay back again.
"Qinggong is good, it's a bit fluttering, why didn't you copy this martial art just now?" Zhou Fei yawned and murmured, "You must copy it next time. Qinggong is a man's romance. "
When they woke up the next day, everyone noticed that the corpse of a horse thief was lying in the distance, all of which were pierced by a sword, and the technique was simply and neat.
Many people have heard the neighing sound last night, compared to these dead horse thieves.
After being hit hard, these horse thieves are not as arrogant as they were yesterday, but he
We still did not abandon the plan of this food transport team, but followed far behind.
In the next few days, it was the same.
The horse thief is a group of five people, tracking them in turn, constantly exerting psychological pressure on the food transportation team.
Although horse thieves die every night, new horse thieves will be added the next day.
This horse thief has a large number and its origin is definitely not simple.
And looking at the way they track, it's a bit of an army.
Generally, horse thief are mobs, and there is no discipline at all.
However, this horse thief is too suspicious to be able to order and prohibit.
And Ling Zhaoyan, who went out to kill the thief every night, couldn't bear it after all.
In the early morning of this night, Ling Zhaoyan walked out of the tent, preparing to continue to the horse thief camp to kill.
Just out of the tent, from the corner of her eye she saw Zhou Fei warming by the campfire.
In the past, Zhou Fei slept like a dead pig, but today he did not fall asleep, which is a bit strange.
However, Ling Zhaoyan was not a curious person, so he did not ask.
"Just plan to kill like this?" Zhou Fei threw a handful of firewood into the bonfire: "Do you think it's getting harder and harder to kill the horse thief? In the past, only one sword was needed, but now it needs a lot of swords?"
Ling Zhaoyan paused: "How do you know?"
"Your return to the camp is getting late, and your footsteps are getting heavier. This proves that you are consuming more and more spiritual energy, and when you came back yesterday, your breath was disturbed. This shows that there has been a master among horse thieves, specializing in Come to deal with you." Zhou Fei said.
Ling Zhaoyan bit her lower lip, her face pale.
What Zhou Fei said was correct.
She already felt a little powerless.
When I first started killing the horse thief, there was really no difficulty at all.
But after a few days of killing, the horse thief became more and more wary of her, and it became more and more difficult to take the horse thief away easily.
This is especially true in the past few days. Several powerful people have appeared among the horse thieves, and they are very troublesome to deal with.
This is why the number of horse thieves has not decreased for several days.
Unkillable.
If it's just unkillable and acceptable, the key point is that Ling Zhaoyan almost didn't get out of it several times.
But Ling Zhaoyan knew very well that she couldn't stop.
Going out to kill the horse thief every night has become the support of everyone in the camp. If the sound of fighting from the horse thief camp is not heard that night, the atmosphere of the camp will be completely dissipated.
Once the hearts of the people are broken, the horse thief's opportunity will come.
"Even if your sword skill comes from the sword sage Ye Xin, but the realm is average, you can't display the true power of the sword skill. If you have the seven-star realm, you may be able to display the sword formation, but it is a pity. Continue to kill like this, only It will make you more tired and will not help the whole situation." Zhou Fei said lightly.
Ling Zhaoyan was silent for a moment: "Then what should I do?"
Zhou Fei smiled and said, "Return to the other body by the way of the other."
Ling Zhaoyan said: "What's the solution?"
Zhou Fei patted the sand on the trouser legs and stood up, and said, "First of all, we have to make sure, what are these horse thieves for?"
Ling Zhaoyan frowned: "Naturally it is forage, otherwise what else can there be?"
Zhou Fei said: "Not necessarily, if it was for food and grass, they could have done it a long time ago. However, they have followed since we entered the grassland and never took the initiative to attack."
Ling Zhaoyan murmured, "It's not for food, what is it for?"
Zhou Fei said: "The horse thieves are dispatched for profit. Food and grass have no benefit to them. Therefore, the source of their benefits must be given by the messenger behind the scenes. If you want to defeat them, you must make these horse thieves aware of it. One point, that is, the price they pay is far more than the benefits they get."
Ling Zhaoyan's expression seemed to be incomprehensible, but it was a little colder and more cute.
"Our grain and grass are given to King Jin Zuo of Louyang City. If it takes less than a day, King Jin Zuo will be more dangerous. As long as we can hold us, King Jin Zuo will die without fighting. This is one of them. Second, when in the camp, Dingjian Pavilion had offended Heng Zongdao. The Qiu Qiaozhen was a very small-minded middle-aged woman. If we didn’t deliver the grain and grass on time, it would be a serious sin. Even if the Sword Master came forward, I am afraid it will be difficult to protect you."
Ling Zhaoyan was shocked by these words.
Because if Zhou Fei's analysis is correct, then the ultimate goal of the whole thing is actually directed at Master Ye Xin.
After the Dingjian Pavilion collapsed, Yan State had no first-class academy.
Without the support of the younger generation, Yan's future is gloomy!
