In a market town at the foot of Huaijiang Mountain, Wu Mo and Shui Congyue were sitting on the second floor of a wine shop, drinking while looking at the mountains in the distance. This mountain is where the Feiyun Sect is located. Compared with the quiet surroundings of other sects, this place is very lively.
Surrounding Huaijiang Mountain, there is a circle of markets and villages and towns, with wine shops, teahouses, gouran stalls, pawn shops, and all worldly things. When we arrived here, at first glance we thought it was a secular town, so prosperous.
It seems that the Feiyun Sect is indeed well managed, even the land at the foot of the mountain is being developed vigorously. No wonder other sects cannot do it.
Wu Gen and three others had already arrived here, and they split up to quietly inquire about the situation inside the door, thinking of taking away his lair in one fell swoop.
If they can capture Feiyun Sect this time, they will be considered famous in Zhujuan Kingdom. After all, this is a sect that dominates the entire county. Once overthrown, all the sects in Zhujuan Kingdom will feel panic, and its significance is self-evident.
For such a large sect, the three of them are not all powerful, so how can they not be treated with caution? These days, Wu Mo alone went to raid another iron mine in Feiyunmen, which caused the sect to send many more people there to strengthen the guard force.
As for Wu Gen, he had already quietly sneaked into the sect many times along with the civilians who were transporting supplies to the mountains. Such a large sect needs a lot of food and clothing every day, otherwise there would not be so many people gathered at the foot of the mountain.
Wu Gen had been up the mountain for five days this time, and there was no news yet. The two of them were sitting upstairs drinking, looking at ease, but actually feeling anxious inside. What's going on on the mountain, how everything is arranged, what the opponent's strength is, how to attack, and how to retreat in case of danger, all these must be carefully considered.
After waiting for another day, Wu Gen finally appeared at the inn.
The two of them were silent as they looked at the map drawn by Wu Gen.
"There are six roads up the mountain in Huaijiang Mountain, leading to the entrances of various sects on the mountain. These six roads can only go to the mountainside. If you want to go to the main peak, Shaoguang Peak, which is also where the main members of the sect are, there is only one road. You can go up the stairs.
But in fact, there is a small road in the back mountain, which is used by the herb collectors in the sect. It is quite rugged. I only learned about it by accidentally listening to people talking. After a secret survey, I found that this road could cross the mountainside and end at a place a hundred feet away from the top of Shaoguang Peak. Wu Gen pointed to the general direction of the path and took a breath.
These days, Wu Gen pretended to be a civilian delivering supplies and sneaked into Feiyun Gate to inquire around. When he was on the mountain, Wu Gen took the initiative when working. He had nothing to say when he was told to do it, and he rushed to finish what he didn't tell him. However, the steward of Feiyun Sect in charge of general affairs had a good impression of him and allowed him to do whatever he wanted. Walk among the peaks.
"As for how many people there are in the sect, I have been helping out in the kitchen these days. I have counted the dishes and chopsticks one by one, and there are 427 people. These are all outer sect disciples.
But in fact there were not that many. Many outer disciples were sent out, and only about 370 people actually ate.
According to Feiyun Sect's selection rule of twenty to one, there should be about twenty inner disciples above the mountainside. In addition, in addition to the sect master, there is also an elder assisting in the mountain.
The other two elders were sent out to take charge because they were harassed by us. It is difficult to find out whether there is any hidden strength in the door.
By the way, after coming out of the small path, there is a formation on the road leading to the main peak Shaoguang Peak, which is quite strong. If Yue or Lao Wu uses the blood spirit talisman to make a concentrated attack of iron arrows, it is possible to open a hole. "Wu Gen gave a general introduction to the strength of Feiyun Sect.
Tie Yan shot down the strange ship sent by King Jinchun with one arrow that day, leaving him with a fresh memory. If it were used by Wu Mo or Shui Congyue, it should have such great power. As long as the formation is not given a chance to repair, it should be able to defeat it.
After listening to Wu Gen's introduction, Shui and Wu both frowned and remained silent. Indeed, three people had to deal with nearly four hundred people, and they were all cultivators. Although their strength was high or low, they could kill three people in a single round of battle.
Shui Congyue frowned and pointed at the map on the table, "From what I've learned, we're not afraid of elite soldiers, but rather groups of soldiers. In fact, the biggest threat to us is these outer disciples. If the opponent swarms up, ants can still chew it." Where is the dead elephant? If we cannot get rid of this fighting power, this battle will be unwinnable."
Wu Mo also nodded, "It won't be a problem for me to fight forty or fifty people, Lao Wu."
, but there are so many that I can’t beat them. In fact, this kind of thing is the most troublesome. When there are more people, there are more means, both overt and covert, from far and near, all trying to greet you. It’s really hard to guard against them. "
Wu Gen was silent. He had heard stories in the past saying that a general could penetrate thousands of troops, as if he were in a deserted area, but in fact, it was really difficult to do so.
After all, manpower is exhausted and they will eventually get tired. With so many opponents and hidden tricks, one may be caught accidentally. Even a master like Wu Mo is not immune.
"Lao Wu, how many of your smiling souls are left?" Wu Gen suddenly asked.
Wu Mo's eyes lit up, "You mean using poison?" But his eyes quickly dimmed, "We don't have much with us, and even if we did, how could these people be willing to let us feed them one by one?"
Shui Congyue thought thoughtfully, "What Wu Gen is talking about should be poisoning in the water. After all, the water resources in the mountains are limited, and it is not as easy as digging wells everywhere on the plains. This actually narrows the scope of poisoning.
However, when using poison, it is only effective if the number of people is small. There are many people, some drink less, some drink more, or the medicinal properties disappear with the water, which is not very reliable. There has never been any case in history of using poison to win a battle, which shows that this method is really flawed when used in wars. "
Wu Gen nodded, "What Cong Yue said is true, but no matter what, I have to give it a try. I will be satisfied if I can weaken the opponent's strength, let alone knocking them all down. It's hateful, what people in this inner sect do is You can’t get up to where you live, otherwise you can put it down." He said and slapped his hand heavily on the table.
A "squeak" sound came, and it turned out that Mu Pi's wrist was knocked hard on the table. Just at this time, Mu woke up and was knocked to pieces.
"What do you want to do? Even if I accept you as my master, I can't kill you at will." A high-pitched voice sounded, and Mu Qi flew to Wu Gen's head, tearing his hair hard, and soon Wu Gen's head was in a mess.
He grabbed Mu and slapped her hard on the table. Just as he was about to teach this disrespectful little beast a lesson, suddenly, the three of them looked at each other with joy on their faces.
Wu Gen held Mu in his hands, scratched his chin carefully, and said with a kind face, "Xiao Mu, you are living a comfortable life these days."
Mu blinked his big eyes, "I'm unhappy, your soul power is so filthy. Once you enter your dream, the sky is full of silver and smells like copper. It's so unpalatable that you can't be a talented man and a beautiful woman." Beautiful dreams like mountains and flowing water. If it weren’t for the soul crystal, who would be willing to stay by your side.”
"Uh. I'd like to discuss this with the slim-waisted slave." Wu Gen thought thoughtfully.
"No, no, no, let's forget it. Just tell me, you have nothing to do to be courteous. Is there anything you want me to do?" Mu quickly begged for mercy.
"My lord, let me ask you something. How many people can you put to sleep at one time? It doesn't mean that they can't wake up at all, but it means that they can sleep for a whole day and not wake up no matter what the sky is falling outside." Wu Gen is eager. asked.
"When you are in Juye City, you can confuse mortals. You can probably have close to a hundred people at a time."
"What about the practitioners?"
"I'm forty or fifty years old, and I can't change places and dream of other people. After all, the spiritual soul of a cultivator is much stronger than that of a mortal."
Wu Gen was furious when he heard this, "Why are you so weak? You are still an ancient beast, and your name has been lost in vain."
Mu pouted, and put his two front paws in front of him to poke around, "I'm still young, sir, you're bullying me."
Wu Gen really couldn't do anything with this little thing. Based on his actual age, he would have to call him grandpa. He was still young.
Shui Congyue nodded, "It's not useless. Just put it on the mountainside at the entrance to Shaoguang Peak. If anyone from the outer sect who hasn't been poisoned comes, let Mu try his best to put it down."
Wu Gen and Wu Mo thought about it and decided that this was all they could do. After all, they were still a little weak. Put aside other thoughts and deduce each link in detail so that you can check for any omissions.
The three of them did not have the aura of great luck, so one of them attacked the mountain gate alone. Either the opponents knelt down and begged for mercy, or a stone fell from the sky and killed the opponent, or the opponent was too handsome and was a nymphomaniac. defection.
Three days later, Wu Gen transformed into a civilian husband and headed to Huaijiang Mountain. Wu Mo and Shui Congyue also made preparations. .
Wu Gen mainly delivered fresh fruits and vegetables to various peaks today. When the steward saw him, he did not search him much and gave him a smile. This young man worked hard, but he was able to save the money of a hired worker.
Every time he reached a peak, Wu Gen would diligently help the people in Feiyun Sect carry water and clean up. Who wouldn't want to accept the benefits brought to his doorstep? In one afternoon, he found out where the spring in the mountain was.
There are nineteen springs in the area where the people in the outer sect are, and there must be some small springs. Then Wu Gen has no time to take care of them. He can just put down some people, and there is no need to seek perfection in everything.
Wrapped in multiple layers of hemp paper, put the Miao Luan Hun Powder and Beauty Undressing under the spring grass, so that when the water is soaked layer by layer, the medicinal properties will be released little by little over a period of time, preventing all the medicine from being washed down the mountain.
After all this work, the deliverymen had already gone down the mountain. Wu Gengang was about to return to the foot of the mountain, but was stopped by the person in charge. It turned out that there was a batch of goods that needed to be transported from the foot of the mountain to the mountain as soon as possible. It was already getting dark and it was too late to summon people, so the manager asked Wu Gen to find a way to transport it up.
Wu Gen's heart moved slightly, and he said flatteringly: "My lord, I have done my duty, but there are really a lot of these goods. The younger one has already helped you all to clean up for a day. Can you ask two more people to help? For wages, I can give you less." OK."
The steward flatly refused, but could not stand Wu Gen's begging, and finally agreed that he could only have one more person to help. He casually handed Wu Gen a badge, "It's not peaceful these two days, and the inspections in the mountain are very strict. If you bring this badge, no one will stop you."
"Thank you, sir, thank you, sir." Wu Genpidianpianpian took over the badge. This was an unexpected surprise. It just so happened that he brought Wu Mo up the mountain to give him an extra helper.
At midnight, Wu Gen and Wu Mo drove a cart toward the mountain, while Shui Congyue took a small path.
Along the way, people appeared from the darkness to question him from time to time. Wu Gen has been working a lot these days, and he has become quite familiar with these outer disciples. As for Wu Mo, he was allowed to pass smoothly after showing his waist card.
By the time the goods were handed over, everyone on the mountain was already sleeping peacefully. In the steward's room, he nodded sleepily. Just as he was about to say something, he saw the old man next to Wu Gen rushing towards him and grabbing his throat like a pair of pliers.
The steward's face was red from suppressing it. The other party was very strong, but he couldn't use any of his abilities. He had to look at him and beg for mercy.
Wu Gen walked up to him sadly, "Sir, I have something to ask you. If you are more honest, you may not be able to save your life. If you are thinking of tipping off someone or not telling the truth, hehe." He stepped heavily on him. On the opponent's feet, beads of sweat rolled down the steward's face, "Believe it or not, I will cut you into a stick and throw you into the pig pen to compete with the pigs for food."
The steward nodded repeatedly. The young man in front of him seemed to be a different person, full of murderous intent. Looking at the old man again, he is not a good person.
"Is there a secret sentry on the way to Shaoguang Peak? How strong is it?"
"How can the formation on the mountain be broken?"
"..."
