Although it attracted a lot of attention, the journey was smooth and nothing happened. We walked for most of the day. When it was getting dark, Chen Huaming found a suitable location and built a straw shed on the roadside on a higher ground for shelter. The wind and rain never stops.
After the hut was set up, the three bandit leaders sat down consciously. After a while, they closed their eyes and lay down. They didn't know whether they fell asleep or fainted. This made Chen Huaming, Du Cuiniang and Jiashi The three of them felt very interesting.
There are settlements nearby, and the food that can be found is very limited. Fortunately, Chen Huaming and Du Cuiniang both have a deep understanding of local plants. They know what can and cannot be eaten. They dug some rhizomes and tree roots. When Chu Xiang didn't eat, it was barely enough for the three of them.
Feeling sleepy after eating, Master Ji lay down on the ground covered with leaves and soon fell asleep and curled up into a ball. Chen Huaming and Du Cuiniang discussed the next thing and were about to take turns to rest. The two of them found that Chu Xiang's right hand had already Form a touchdown mark.
Du Cuiniang's heart tightened, and she turned to look at Chen Huaming and said, "Did Master say something will happen tonight?"
"There is no devil that needs to be surrendered, so there is no need for the Demon Subduing Seal. The Master actually used the Demon Subduing Seal as a warning, indicating that something will definitely happen tonight. The Master actually foresaw what was about to happen. We only need to do what we should do." Chen Huaming said. .
Du Cuiniang nodded.
The two talked in Burmese. Chu Xiang didn't know what they were talking about, but it could be inferred from their expressions that they understood what he meant.
Chen Huaming set some simple early-warning traps about ten meters outside the hut. Du Cuiniang placed some stones around Jiashi. The scattered stones vaguely revealed some mystery. It was unknown what kind of formation they were arranged.
The two set up a plan, knowing that there would be an enemy attack at night, so they did not dare to sleep deeply. Chen Huaming sat down against the tree, closed his eyes and adjusted his breath to regain his energy. Du Cuiniang sat aside and kept vigil.
The night was dark, and I couldn't see my fingers. The rain was heavy and sometimes light, and it kept ticking on the leaves, like playing a wilderness rhapsody.
Du Cuiniang paid vigilant attention to the surrounding situation, turning her head from time to time to look at the three bandit leaders who were sleeping on the ground. The three bandit leaders had not woken up since they lay down. They were sleeping extremely deeply. It seemed that there was no need to worry about their rebellion.
I don't know the time in the dark night, the wind and rain hit the covered leaves, crackling continuously, every sound is clearly transmitted to the ears, time seems to be stretched infinitely, lengthened into the sound of rain hitting banana trees.
Du Cuiniang is an old Jianghu, so naturally she will not be deceived by the illusion caused by the environment. The speed of time has not changed in her mind. Even if she was ambushed from all sides, she huddled under the rotten leaves until the enemy retreated and left three days later. The wooden house where she lives temporarily.
At midnight, Chen Huaming woke up on time. For infiltrators like them who walked on the tightrope, the second hand seemed to be engraved in their minds. They planned to wake up at 11 o'clock and would never wake up at 11:01. , Awakening one minute late may be a fatal minute.
Du Cuiniang and Chen Huaming exchanged gestures, lay down to rest, and Chen Huaming began to keep vigil.
The night was long and everything was pitch black. Although he had some low-light vision ability, Chen Huaming couldn't see people when they were more than three meters away. He had no idea what was around him and could only distinguish it by hearing.
Apart from the patter of rain, there was no other sound around, not even the chirping of mosquitoes. The quieter it was, the harder it was to calm down in Chen Huaming's heart. There seemed to be an invisible thread in the darkness tugging at his heartstrings, pulling harder and harder. The tighter.
After walking around the world for so long and experiencing countless life and death dangers, Chen Huaming knew that this was the aura of approaching danger. In the dark and invisible place, murderous intent was coming.
Chen Huaming could not guess whether the enemy would launch an attack before dawn, or at three o'clock in the middle of the night when his attention dropped the most. In this dark night where he could not see his fingers, no matter when the enemy attacked, for him, These are all very dangerous situations that are difficult to prevent.
What makes Chen Huaming most nervous is how the enemy will make a surprise attack. For a group of bandits that are powerful enough to wreak havoc around them, they have many ways and many kinds of weapons to attack several people who have settled down on the roadside, and Attacks by people without any solid defenses.
This is a war that determines their living conditions. For bandits, losing three leaders is not only a great loss of strength, but also leads to a great decline in the status of the group. Even if the three leaders cannot be rescued, they will still have to fight. After some attempts, if the leader is allowed to be captured, their status in the world can no longer be guaranteed, and other surrounding forces will most likely come together to eat everything from their group.
The night is getting darker, the wind is getting stronger, and the rain is getting heavier. The pouring rain has covered all the sounds around him, and Chen Huaming's nerves have become tense. In such an environment, with his cultivation level, he can't hear even if he concentrates his attention. A sound thirty meters away.
Just when Chen Huaming became nervous, dozens of dim flames suddenly flashed like meteors. The moment he saw the fire, the hair on Chen Huaming's body exploded. Before he could blink, the dim flames instantly became dazzling, like burning stars. The red iron blocks came from all directions around the hay shed.
He twisted his waist with all his strength and threw himself towards the low-lying area on the side. However, before he could make any move, the red-hot iron beads were already in front of his eyes. At this moment, Chen Huaming could clearly see dozens of dazzling flames with individual stars among them. A red-hot warhead.
The position where several warheads came was exactly his own, and it was his head that was shrouded in the shadow of death. Chen Huaming's mind trembled, and he raised his energy wildly. He roared with all his strength and fell to the ground. Everything around him seemed to slow down in Chen Huaming's eyes. , even the bullets that penetrated the rain curtain slowed down, and the wake caused by the warhead could be clearly seen.
Bang, Chen Huaming lay down in the puddle, clinging to the ground, and did not make any other evasive movements. He knew that at this time, any evasive movements were useless and could only depend on luck. The enemy's shooting position had already covered the space around them. They were all covered, and only after the first wave of enemy precise shots had passed, did they have about half a second to respond.
The air blasted by the bullet exploded with a whistling sound. Chen Huaming knew that the first wave of precise shots had passed. Hearing the whistling sound meant that he was not dead. He turned his head and looked at the positions of Du Cuiniang and Chu Xiang. Du Cuiniang had already woken up, just like him. Lying on the ground, Chu Xiang still sat there cross-legged. What surprised him was that the red warheads did not pass by in all directions, but slowly moved forward amidst huge invisible resistance as if they were stuck in a quagmire. The red fire was fierce The friction is getting brighter and brighter, as if sparks are about to burst out.
Just as the first wave of warheads struggled to advance in the invisible quagmire, the second wave of fire flashed again, and eight thick flames burst out in the rain.
The enemy's attacks are very precise, and they must have equipment such as night vision goggles, otherwise it would be impossible to accurately see the positions of several people.
The second wave of long-range precision shooting, plus the coverage of light artillery, made a thought. Chen Huaming had already calculated that there was a gap of 0.78 seconds between the arrival of the second wave of shooting and the arrival of the artillery attack.
what to do? Chen Huaming looked at Du Cuiniang. Faced with such fire coverage, they had no way to escape, and they did not dare to go up against the fire to attack the enemies in the darkness, because he had no way of knowing how many enemies were ambushing in the darkness. From what he had seen before Judging from the bandit's strength, his cultivation does not provide an overwhelming advantage.
Jiashi's reaction was very slow. After the first wave of bullets caused the air to roar and explode, he woke up in confusion. He didn't know what happened and sat up directly.
The harsh sound of space tearing sounded again, and the second wave of warheads crashed into the invisible quagmire. Faced with such a siege, Chen Huaming and Du Cuiniang had no choice but to lie on the ground as much as possible and let Chu Xiang resist.
Eight thick beams of fire followed, but before the fire could get close to the invisible quagmire, it exploded in the air. A violent shock wave erupted, the ground shook, and all the surrounding trees were destroyed. However, the invisible quagmire did not change at all. , but there were a lot more broken shrapnel struggling inside.
If this continues, he can only be beaten passively, which is absolutely not possible. There must be a way to break out. Chen Huaming was about to shout to Chu Xiang in Chinese, but his mind changed. Before the words came out, he quickly changed to Burmese: "Master, what should I do? "
Of course Chu Xiang couldn't understand what Chen Huaming was talking about, but he could guess what Chen Huaming was talking about and pointed to the southeast.
Just when Chu Xiang pointed to the southeast, the three bandit leaders who were lying on the ground and sleeping soundly stood up. They looked around with fierce eyes and saw that their appearance had returned to normal.
Chen Huaming was shocked when he came into contact with the gazes of the three bandit leaders. The hand holding the knife trembled slightly. The three bandit leaders were bombarded by long-range firepower from outside. Here, the three bandit leaders woke up again. How to deal with the internal and external attacks.
"Cui Niang, take Long Pi over there." Chen Huaming pointed to the southeast and shouted in Burmese, and drew his sword to block the three bandit leaders.
In just two seconds when the three bandit leaders stood up, more than ten times more warheads were added to the invisible quagmire. The enemy was covering the attack with indiscriminate firepower. It seemed that not only did they want to kill them, but they also wanted to kill their three bosses. and kill.
Chen Huaming's heart moved and he shouted in Dai language at the three bandit leaders: "Your little brother wants to kill you all together."
After the words fell, the three bandit leaders turned to look around, their fierce gazes gradually turning angry. The densely packed scorching warheads around them were irrefutable evidence that their younger brother did not want to save them, but took the opportunity to kill them all for his own good. Ascend.
Explosions continued in the periphery, and flames rose from time to time. They were surrounded by densely packed scorching warheads. Even though Chen Huaming and Du Cuiniang had experienced countless life and death, they were frightened by this thrilling situation they had never seen before. They must know that every scorching bullet around them The warheads contain enough energy to destroy a person's entire life. Once the invisible quagmire disappears, they will surely die.
