It is quiet at night and there are many trees and dense forests.
A large group of people advanced quietly in the deep forest, but they didn't know where they were going.
The leader is actually Xiaoyao, the director of Xiaoyao Sect. Ren Xiaoyao led a large group of people and saw many signs of fighting along the way. Ren Xiaoyao has reason to believe that these Japanese pirates died after Kuangxiao Yuege and several other great swordsmen.
It's just that although Kuangxiao Yuege and others killed a lot of Japanese pirates, they still managed to scare the enemy away. Therefore, when Ren Xiaoyao's team arrived immediately, they could no longer find the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates. Ren Xiaoyao has received accurate information. The Japanese pirates who came ashore to deal with Yuxian Pavilion this time were not a thousand, but at least eight hundred.
The Japanese pirates were divided into several groups. Some of them looted along the way, while others continued to chase and kill those who escaped from Yuxian Pavilion.
Xiaoyaomen and Jianghu Wulin Zhengdao came after them, but they could no longer find the whereabouts of the Japanese pirates.
"Strange! Why do so many Japanese pirates suddenly seem to disappear?" Ren Xiaoyao said curiously.
"I must have gotten wind of it, so I found a place to hide it!" Sheng Zhiqiang said.
Sheng Zhiqiang has now become the leader of the Anti-Japanese Alliance, so the current members of the Anti-Japanese Alliance are naturally led by him in name.
"Even if they hide, it's impossible not to leave any clues. They must be nearby!" Tang Mugong gritted his teeth.
Choo Choo Choo!
Just as he was talking, there suddenly was a chaffinch in the forest, which kept chirping in the forest.
Ren Xiaoyao and others heard the sound of birds and came to a place where a fierce fight took place. Ren Xiaoyao took a closer look and saw that in addition to many new graves in the forest, there were also two traces of large groups of people passing by.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at the many new tombs and didn't know who was buried in them, but he expected that most of them were Japanese pirates, because these new tombs did not have wooden monuments. There were only two new tombs with wooden monuments on them, which read "Ximen Kai" respectively. "Ximenguan" two names. Some people in the martial arts world recognized these two people and knew that they were the two heroes from Lunan. But they didn't understand why these two people died here?
Since there are wooden monuments erected in front of the tombs of warriors from the Central Plains, it means that most of the people buried in these graves were also from the Central Plains, and those graves without wooden monuments must have been the burials of Japanese pirates.
However, although there are traces of Japanese pirates passing by in the forest, they are in a disorderly manner. There are signs of going northwest and evidence of passing due south.
"Is it northwest or south?" The two directions were roughly opposite, and Ren Xiaoyao couldn't make up his mind for a while.
"Could it be that the Japanese pirates split into two groups?" Wei Yan guessed.
"It's possible! But we don't know where the fifth young hero and others have gone?" Tang Mugong also said with some doubts.
It is also possible that there are two different groups of people going in these two directions, one of which is the fifth line and others.
Tang Mugong's guess was certainly reasonable, because Kuangxiao Yuege and others did not leave any road signs at all. It was probably because they were in such a hurry that they forgot to leave a password.
Originally, the disciples of Yuxian Pavilion left many road signs, but only the people of Yuxian Pavilion could understand these road signs. Tang Mugong and others followed him all the way, but they didn't notice this. In other words, even if you see it, you don't know what it represents.
Choo Choo Choo!
The little sparrow actually didn't leave, but kept flying back and forth in front of Tang Mugong and Ren Xiaoyao.
Ren Xiaoyao thought it was very noisy, so he stretched out his hand to chase it away twice, but the chaffinch wouldn't go away and kept flying around in front of everyone.
At this time, Ren Xiaoyao and others led hundreds of heroes, but they could not find the exact location of the Japanese pirates for a while, and they couldn't help but feel a little anxious.
At this time, Wei Yan suddenly began to notice the chaffinch, as if the chaffinch was talking to them.
Wei Yan then stepped forward gently and tentatively stretched out her hand to catch the chaffinch. However, this chaffinch was not afraid of strangers at all. Instead, it was very cooperative and landed gently on the back of Wei Yan's hand.
Choo Choo Choo!
"Grandpa, this bird seems to be talking!" Wei Yan finally couldn't help but said.
After Wei Yan's reminder, Tang Mugong suddenly became alert, because Wei Yan's words reminded him of his silly grandson, Tang Zhong.
"Yan'er, can you understand what birds are saying?" Tang Mugong couldn't help but ask.
"I don't understand, but I think this bird is indeed a bit weird." Wei Yan said with certainty.
At this time, everyone also noticed the chaffinch, and saw the chaffinch slowly flying up, then calling "chirp, chirp, chirp" twice, fluttering its wings a few times, and then immediately flew south. Go up.
The sparrow flew not far, but before anyone could catch up, it froze in the air again and kept chirping "chirp, chirp, chirp". At this time, even a fool must have understood what Little Chanque meant.
"It really wants to lead the way, let's follow it!" Ren Xiaoyao finally confirmed at this time.
Ren Xiaoyao has been feeling very strange these days, because every time he encounters confusion and difficulty, there is always an expert who can secretly give him guidance. Ren Xiaoyao used to think that he was both wise and brave, but now there is such an unpredictable person hiding around him, but he has never been able to find out the identity of that person.
Ren Xiaoyao had reason to believe that this sparrow must have been ordered by the master behind it to guide him. Ren Xiaoyao felt more and more that this expert was extremely powerful and could actually command birds and beasts to his advantage.
Ren Xiaoyao took the lead and followed the bird straight to the south.
Soon, Ren Xiaoyao seemed to understand where Yanque was taking them.
The place they were going to now was the cliff where Master Mei Yun jumped off. It was already dead of night, but they could still see the towering cliffs in the sky through the dim moonlight.
"Here again?" Ren Xiaoyao felt more and more that there seemed to be many secrets in this place that they had not yet understood.
"Why are you here again?" Tang Mugong was also very curious. It seemed that he also knew where Yanque was going to them.
But what Tang Mugong is more concerned about now is who is the master behind this bird who is helping them? Tang Mugong even felt more and more that the person who controlled the sparrow might be his grandson Tang Zhong. Because for hundreds of years in the world, no one has ever heard of anyone being able to communicate with birds and beasts, and be good friends with them, and actually let them be used for their own purposes.
The only person in the world who has this ability is his grandson Tang Zhong. Tang Mugong never believed that besides his grandson, there was a second person with such ability in the world.
"Yan'er, have you met Zhong'er?" Tang Mugong finally couldn't help but ask.
"No...No!" Wei Yan said hesitantly.
"Then how do you know there's something weird about this bird?"
"Didn't Grandpa see it too? It keeps barking! Besides, if he is still alive, he will definitely come back to see Grandpa." Wei Yan had to try her best to hide it.
Wei Yan is indeed right, as long as Tang Zhong is still alive, he will definitely come back. But Wei Yan is not sure now, when will Tang Zhong come back? Wei Yan was even more confused. Why did Tang Zhong not intend to come back immediately?
Ren Xiaoyao followed the bird and came to the bottom of the cliff as expected. I saw a secret cave in the corner of the cliff. There was a faint light of fire in the cave, and there were also voices of people.
"It turns out there is a cave down here!" Ren Xiaoyao finally understood.
That day, Master Meiyun jumped off the cliff. Ren Xiaoyao and the others only found the side where Master Meiyun jumped off, but the entrance to the cave was on the back side of where Master Tai jumped off the cliff. If Tang Zhong hadn't been very sure that there was something strange about Master Mei Yun's jumping off the cliff, so he searched the entire solitary mountain, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to find the entrance to the cave at all.
"We don't know the situation inside at all. What should we do?" Tang Mugong asked tentatively.
"This cave must have more than one entrance." Ren Xiaoyao concluded.
"How can you see it?" Tang Mugong asked.
"If you were a Japanese pirate, would you find a weak spot, block yourself in it, and let others catch you?" Ren Xiaoyao asked.
"It makes sense, of course not!" Tang Mugong immediately agreed with Ren Xiaoyao's point of view.
"But, where did that sparrow come from?" Ren Xiaoyao also asked slightly curiously.
"Actually, I also want to know." Tang Mugong also said.
Ren Xiaoyao and Tang Muzheng were discussing, but they saw Sheng Zhiqiang slowly walking forward, and then said coldly: "It turns out these Japanese pirates are hiding here, we can just catch them all." As Sheng Zhiqiang said, he headed towards the entrance of the cave first. Go.
"Lord Sheng, wait!" Ren Xiaoyao immediately stopped him.
As soon as Sheng Zhiqiang let Xiaoyao stop, he realized his recklessness, but his movement was very fast and he had already jumped to the middle between the woods and the entrance of the cave.
Many people were dissatisfied with Sheng Zhiqiang's appointment as the leader of the anti-Japanese alliance. At this time, he did not want to cause too much resentment, so he wanted to turn around and discuss with Ren Xiaoyao and Tang Mugong.
But just as he was about to turn around, he realized something was wrong. There seemed to be strange movement on the ground around him.
"Ha! There's an ambush!" Sheng Zhiqiang said coldly.
Sheng Zhiqiang's current martial arts skills are also rare in the world, so even if the enemy is ambushing him, he himself will certainly not be afraid. But once he is ambushed, he will definitely be able to alert the enemy.
Sheng Zhiqiang obviously knew that he was too careless. He should have thought that the Japanese pirates would set up spies in front of the cave and even lay an ambush. Once an enemy approaches, the Japanese pirates will naturally know it immediately.
When Sheng Zhiqiang first became the leader of the alliance, he originally wanted to take the lead and kill generals and perform meritorious deeds in order to gain a better reputation in the world and make his position as leader more stable. I didn't want to scare the snake before I took action, so I felt very unhappy.
However, things have come to this, and we have to let nature take its course.
Since we were ambushed by the enemy, we could only respond calmly.
Sheng Zhiqiang then stopped and listened intently to the surroundings, but found that those strange noises all came from underground. Obviously, the enemies are hiding underground, but we still don’t know what kind of monsters they are.
