"Mr. Chen, this is the letter brought to you by the manager."
Upon hearing this, the man immediately took out a letter from his lining pocket.
letter?
Chen Ziyan took the envelope curiously. He did not expect that Sheng Shengman would choose this method to deliver the message.
However, after looking at it for a while, he knew that the reason why Sheng Shengran chose this method was definitely not because he didn't trust his subordinates, because the envelope was not sealed at all, so he didn't have to worry about leaving traces if he wanted to open it.
So...the choice of this method was due to formal issues? Or is it because there is no way to hold a conversation?
Considering that these people in front of him were isolated secret agents, Chen Ziyan felt that it was probably because the two parties had no chance to have substantive contact.
As all kinds of thoughts emerged in his mind, Chen Ziyan took out the paper from the envelope without stopping.
After unfolding the neatly folded paper, you can see lines of graceful handwriting.
After a while, Chen Ziyan withdrew his gaze and showed a thoughtful expression.
Although he had never seen a word with a slow voice, he could tell from the style between the lines that this letter was not fake.
According to what this letter describes, just after Chen Ziyan and the others left, many locals began to appear in the camp. The identities of these people were probably Dharma protector lamas. These uninvited lamas did not disturb the camp and were just quiet. 's stay outside.
Before Shen Sheng could find out whether the purpose of these Dharma protector lamas was to 'defend' or 'trap', the camp began to be attacked one after another. Recently, it has directly evolved into a large-scale conflict, but no matter which side it is, they have ignored Xin. The existence of Moon Hotel.
This situation made Sheng Sheng slowly feel a sense of crisis, so she mobilized a team hidden in the dark and asked them to find a way to deliver the letter to Chen Ziyan.
In short, it is to notify Chen Ziyan of changes in the outside world.
After going through the information in his mind, Chen Ziyan handed the letter to Shirley Yang, then looked at the man in front of him and asked: "You should have been hiding near the camp. Can you tell me more details?"
Through the slow-voiced letter, he had a general understanding of the current situation outside the mountain, which could be summarized into two pieces of information.
First of all, two forces suddenly appeared, and there was friction between them. In other words, these two forces were originally contradictory.
The second is the meaning of the slow voice. She chose to send a letter instead of a verbal message, which shows that they are likely to be under surveillance.
Based on Chen Ziyan's understanding of Sheng Shengman, he is a very strict person, so he will not make mistakes easily. Even if they are not strictly supervised, someone must be watching them all the time.
But the situation was obviously not dangerous, otherwise she would definitely not have sent the ambush soldiers in the dark to deliver the message. Of course, there was another possibility, that is, there were more people lurking in the dark than what was in front of her, and Sheng Sheng was very wealthy.
Considering the system of the Crescent Hotel, this is really not impossible. After all, their manager and eldest lady are both in the camp, so it won't be too surprising how many people come.
The man replied calmly: "The conflict between the two sides seems fierce, and casualties occur every day, but in fact it has always been within control. Those lamas all carry cold weapons, but some of the other group carry firearms, but They never use it."
Ignoring the manpower at the Crescent Hotel in the camp?
Intense conflict but restrained?
Chen Ziyan frowned slightly. This was not good news. He did not think that the two parties did this because of kindness. In his opinion, it was more likely because of self-confidence.
I am confident that no matter which of them takes the initiative, the people in the camp will be theirs.
But what puzzles Chen Ziyan is that Lama is the strongest force in the snowy region. It is not surprising that he can have such confidence, but where did the other group of people come from?
He dared to have such a conflict with a lama in the snowy land without falling into a disadvantage. No matter how you look at it, he doesn't look like an ordinary character.
"It seems that we have to change our plans and can't return according to the established route." Shirley Yang also finished reading the letter at this time and said after thinking for a while.
Combining the content of the letter with what the man said, she had already guessed the reason why Sheng Luo sent people to venture into the snow-capped mountains was to make them prepared.
From the behavior of the two groups, it is easy to see that the flash point of their conflict is the camp, but both sides have done nothing wrong with the camp. This shows that their real goal has not yet appeared, and they are just fighting for dominance at this time.
As for this so-called target, no doubt they should be the ones who entered Kunlun.
After Chen Ziyan heard Shirley Yang's words, he nodded slightly in agreement: "Well, the current situation is too chaotic. We don't even know the details of the other party. Going back rashly is the most unwise choice."
There was no need to think too much about it. He knew someone was waiting at the camp, so how could he stupidly throw himself into the trap.
Speaking of going back, the first thing he thought of was their guide Chu Yi. The appearance of the Dharma Protector Lama undoubtedly confirmed his guess. The appearance of this guide was in preparation for their trip.
Even if you go back, you can't follow the way you came. Although the other party doesn't know the route that you and others took in Shenluogou, the road outside is clear. If they set an ambush, they will definitely catch them.
Although Black Glasses hasn't read the letter yet, he roughly understood what happened through the conversation between Chen Ziyan and the man. He said:
"Mr. Chen, I think the other group of people with unknown origins are not simple. They are probably not from our country."
Because he also works part-time as a broker, Black Glasses knows better than everyone present what it means to be able to start a battle with the Lama in the snowy area.
It is not that there are no such forces in the country, but those forces will never enter the snowy area, let alone do such a thing. Even a lawless master like Chen Pi Asi will not until he has no way out. Do this kind of thing.
"Old Hei, do you think those people may be from abroad?" Chen Ziyan looked at him and asked.
It's not that he hasn't thought about this possibility, but he thinks it's unrealistic for foreign forces to be so arrogant.
According to the information coming from Shengsheng Ruan, this group of unknown people is not just that, but they have been appearing in a steady stream, and they also have complete logistics. At least in these aspects, the lamas who are local snakes are not Couldn't take advantage.
If you want to achieve this level, you shouldn't be a foreign force.
"It's very possible." Faced with Chen Ziyan's doubtful gaze, Black Glasses nodded firmly.
If this was the mainland, he would definitely not say that, because it would be a fantasy, but this is a vast and sparsely populated snowy area that can even be said to be inaccessible. If the other party has enough time to prepare, it is really possible to do it. to this point.
It is indeed difficult to conceal the presence of too many of these things at one time, such as manpower, supplies, and equipment, but if there is only a little at a time, perhaps coming in through many completely different routes, then it will not be so eye-catching.
After hearing Black Glasses' idea, Chen Ziyan also felt that it made sense. If it was done in a hurry, it would really not be possible, but if it was premeditated, it would be different.
Even a small force can achieve this level.
But if this is the case, then there is a very important question, and that is why the other party predicted so accurately that they would enter the Kunlun Mountains at this time.
If you want to get something inside the Evil Luo Sea Holy Land, and you don’t have the time and energy to prepare, it’s better to just send your men to explore.
Although the journey is somewhat dangerous, Chen Ziyan believes that both the lama and the unknown forces can bear the price.
And there is another point that makes Chen Ziyan very confused, that is, what is the strange tacit understanding between the two parties? It is very much the product of many interactions, but it is very logical.
First of all, the power of Lama in the Snowy Region is there. Even the leading large-scale forces in the country are unable to engage in a lasting confrontation with them. The local advantage cannot be erased no matter what.
Secondly, the current behavior of both parties may not have spread yet, but there is no airtight wall in this world. The official will definitely end up after knowing about it. This is also what he finds difficult to understand.
There must be a certain degree of unscrupulousness, which is why the camp was set up in a remote location, otherwise sanctions would probably have been ushered in by now.
Chen Ziyan, who had no clue after thinking for a while, let out a breath and said, "Let's take a rest first. We'll talk about this later."
He needed some time to think about it, and at the same time, he also wanted to ask Hu Bayi's opinion.
After all, Hu Bayi has stayed here for a few years. He has a deeper understanding of the local area and may have different opinions.
"Then go back first." Black Glasses shrugged.
He didn't care about this. He knew very well that since Chen Ziyan already knew this, no matter what decision he made in the end, there would be no option of returning to the original route.
On the way back, Chen Ziyan saw the blue-robed Tibetan’s eyes lingering on the white-haired wolf king, and asked:
"Have you seen this wolf?"
Chen Ziyan always felt that the way this guy looked at the Wolf King was a bit strange.
"I have never seen it, but I have heard about it many times." The blue-robed Tibetan said in a deep voice: "This old wolf has been active in Kunlun for nearly a hundred years. He is an extremely cunning guy. Many of my tribe have been attacked by it. attack."
"A hundred years? Doesn't that mean that this old wolf has lived for at least a hundred years?" Black Glasses became interested when he heard this. He looked at the white-haired wolf king being dragged by Chen Ziyan and said in wonder: "A hundred-year-old demon, this is really A rare treasure.”
"A hundred years is a treasure? There are many people who have lived over a hundred years, right?" Chen Wenjin asked in confusion.
She knew that medicinal materials that were a hundred years old were valuable, but she didn't know where this beast treasure was.
"Miss, it's not surprising that you don't know how good this thing is. In this day and age, let alone an old wolf that has lived for more than a hundred years, it is rare to find someone who has lived for more than fifteen years." Black Glasses touched his chin and said, "Just Let me tell you this, the calculation of the age of animals and humans is different. It is rare for us people to live for a hundred years, but the original life span of this thing is only a dozen years. You will understand after doing this calculation. "
"Is that so..." Chen Wenjin narrowed his eyes slightly, knowing that he had fallen into a misunderstanding.
Chen Ziyan did not pay attention to the conversation between the two, but looked at the blue-robed Tibetan and asked: "Friend, the fur of this wolf king is too tough. I wonder if you have anyone who can deal with it?"
Chen Ziyan only remembered after seeing the man in blue robe that he had not disposed of the Wolf King's things.
I don’t know why his reward has not arrived yet, and the knives on hand can’t do anything to this old wolf.
The blue-robed Tibetan shook his head slightly: "I don't have the tools to deal with this kind of creature. If you want to easily cut through the fur of this kind of monster, you can only use a knife made of meteorite. At least it must contain some meteorite." , my weapons just added some, but they can’t do this yet.”
When Chen Ziyan heard what he said, he immediately had a new understanding of the material of meteorite. Originally, because of this mission, he would easily get a meteorite weapon, and he thought that this thing was not too unusual for the top forces.
But now even the blue-robed Tibetans, who are responsible for the combat power of ancient traditions, do not have weapons made of meteorite iron, which is enough to show how precious this material is.
"Mr. Chen, how about you leave this job to me?" Just when Chen Ziyan was about to give up and wait until he got the reward to talk about it, black glasses suddenly came over mischievously.
"What, you have something to do with the guy who made meteorite iron?" Chen Ziyan asked in surprise.
He knew that Black Glasses carried a black knife with him all year round, but he thought that Black Glasses' knife was just made of a special metal.
"Hey, this is natural." The black glasses were not hidden, and with a slight shake of his arm, the black knife appeared in his hand.
Chen Ziyan confidently looked at the knife in his black-glasses hand. It was a one-meter-long straight knife, all black, without any decoration, and looked very simple.
"Hey, Lao Hei, it's not easy for you." Chen Ziyan showed a smile.
This is a good thing. Now that the situation in the outside world has changed, he doesn't want to carry the entire wolf corpse with him all the time. It would be great if he could break it down and move with only valuable things.
The blue-robed Tibetan next to him also took a deep look at the black glasses. There were only a few weapons like this made entirely of meteorite iron in their tribe. He didn't expect this person to have one.
No matter where he got the black glasses, being able to get them meant that he was not simple.
You must know that the last person to possess a meteorite iron weapon was the contemporary Qilin of the Zhang family.
"Hey, Mr. Chen...that..."
"Old Hei, just say it if you have anything to say, don't pretend to be here." Seeing his virtue, Chen Ziyan knew that something was wrong with him.
"Then I'll tell you straight, Mr. Chen, don't worry, leave this old wolf to me to take care of it. I'll make sure that no material is damaged. Just give me the whip afterward." Black Glasses knew Chen Ziyan's character and immediately refused. If you do something bad again, you can lean into his ear and speak casually.
"Whip?" Chen Ziyan raised his eyebrows slightly and looked under his black glasses: "Old Hei, is this a wolf or not a tiger?"
He didn't even have to guess, he could roughly guess the idea of the black glasses just by hearing this.
"Hey, the medicine of this century-old wolf is much more powerful than that of tigers and leopards. I don't think you can use it, Master Chen. Why don't you give it a try for me, Lao Hei?" Black Glasses said.
