Li Dashan yawned, stretched out his head again, and glanced in the direction of Woniuzhai.
What's going on? It's already dawn, why hasn't anyone come to change the shift yet?
As a secret sentry, Li Dashan entered this sentry post yesterday evening and stared at it all night.
This is a big tree on a hillside.
There is a tree hole at the bottom of the trunk, which is just enough for one person to hide.
There is a bush in front of the tree hole, just enough to block the distant sight.
From the tree hole, through the bushes, you can see the mountain road below.
If you want to go to Woniuzhai, this is the nearest and best mountain road.
Although it is a mountain road, it has been well repaired by the bandits from Woniuzhai. Even large vehicles can pass through it. Otherwise, how would they transport food?
Because it is easy to walk, Yun Chao pays special attention to vigilance. Even in normal times, there are open and hidden sentries guarding the mountain roads.
Yesterday, he guessed that someone might come to steal the stronghold, so Yun Chao withdrew the outpost to avoid unnecessary losses and at the same time give the enemy the illusion that he was unprepared, so hurry up and steal the stronghold!
Although the open sentinels were withdrawn, the number of hidden sentries increased.
Opposite the hillside where Li Dashan was located, another hidden sentry was set up.
From Li Dashan's position, he could just see the sentry post on the opposite side.
Similarly, the hidden sentry on the opposite side can also see Li Dashan's sentry post.
When they were on duty yesterday, Yun Chao told them that bandits were likely to attack at night.
Li Dashan stared all night, but he didn't see a single bandit hair.
It was almost dawn, and I thought the bandits would not come.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to stretch and relieve the pain in his body, he suddenly heard a sound coming from the mountains.
At first, Li Dashan thought it was the mountain wind howling.
Later, the more I listened, the more I felt something was wrong.
Suddenly, a gust of wind blew from the mountain, and Li Dashan had an incredible expression on his face.
Along with the sound of wind, Li Dashan seemed to hear many people wailing and shouting at the top of their lungs?
However, because of the distance, Li Dashan was not sure whether his own judgment was correct or not.
I didn’t see any bandits going up the mountain. Why is there so much chaos at the village? Could it be that it’s almost dawn and Brother Chao is leading everyone in training?
No, it’s not that loud during training, right?
Well, because the Bull Demon King was familiar with the terrain, he didn't take the normal road up the mountain at all, but went around to another remote path up the mountain.
The Bull Demon King is not an idiot. When he was in Wo Niu Village, he had observed the terrain countless times and had already found an escape route for himself.
Since they wanted to conduct a sneak attack, why would they take people on a normal mountain road?
Unfortunately, Yun Chao and the others arrived only a short time ago, and their focus was on food. Coupled with the lack of manpower, they did not do much exploration of the surrounding terrain.
Besides, even though he knew there were many paths leading to the village, there was nothing Yunchao could do. There simply weren't that many manpower to stand guard.
If Yun Chao hadn't persisted until the end, he might have been attacked by bandits.
Li Dashan looked at the sentry post opposite again.
That's a big bluestone.
Next to the big bluestone, there is a thick bush, and the sentry post is located in the bush.
Not to mention the people who went up the mountain, even Li Dashan, who knew the inside story, stared carefully and couldn't see anyone in the bushes.
The mistress is hiding well, could he be asleep?
quack!
As the sky gets brighter and brighter, Li Dashan's vision is getting better and better.
The sentries who can be chosen as secret sentries have very good eyesight.
Suddenly, Li Dashan blinked.
It seems that I saw the bushes on the opposite side move.
oh?
Maybe the mistress is awake?
Or just can't stand still?
Or need to pee?
quack!
The thought of peeing.
Li Dashan couldn't help but feel proud.
The hole in the tree where I was hiding was much better than the bushes opposite my mistress. As long as I wasn't afraid of being smoked, I could pee in the hole without fear of being exposed.
The same cannot be said for the mistress opposite. If he pees in the bushes, the urine will flow everywhere and he may be exposed. I really don’t know how the mistress managed to solve the problem that night?
quack……
Li Dashan was teasing the mistress in his heart, and suddenly his eyes widened.
Because he discovered that the bushes on the opposite side did not stop moving once, but kept shaking, and the more they moved, the more violent they became!
What's going on? What is the mistress doing?
Was he attacked by a wild animal?
In order to prevent wild beasts from attacking, there is a steep hillside behind the sentry post on the opposite side. Unless the wild beast jumps directly from a height of more than ten meters, it is impossible to attack the sentry's back.
As for the two sides of the sentry post, there will also be warning devices, such as trip wires. Whether it is a person or a beast, as long as it approaches, it will make noise and alert the sentry.
To be chosen as a sentinel, in addition to his good eyesight, he also has good skills.
As long as they are not attacked by surprise and have a head-on confrontation, even a wolf cannot easily hurt them if they have weapons in their hands.
However, the bushes where the mistress was hiding were shaking desperately. This was too abnormal.
Even if Li Dashan thought about it with his buttocks, he knew that something must have happened!
what to do?
Li Dashan was so nervous that he started to sweat.
As both secret guards, Li Dashan has a good relationship with his mistress, even closer than some brothers.
During the last attack on Woniuzhai, a bandit wanted to attack Li Dashan from behind. It was the mistress who killed the bandit in time, thus saving Li Dashan's life.
Now that he knew that his mistress might be in danger, Li Dashan was driven crazy with anxiety.
However, when Yun Chao trained these secret sentries, he repeatedly emphasized that their mission was to be vigilant.
Being able to send back accurate and effective information in a timely manner is what these secret sentries should do, and it is the only thing they should do.
As for stopping the enemy's sneak attack, or even jumping out to fight the enemy, it is not allowed, absolutely not allowed!
Yun Chao said that whether these secret sentries can detect the enemy in time is related to the fate of the entire group.
As long as the message is sent back in time, even if no enemy is killed, he is still a hero.
On the contrary, even if they kill dozens or hundreds of enemies but fail to send the message back in the end, causing the entire group to be severely damaged, they are still sinners!
Li Dashan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, fighting fiercely in his heart.
what to do?
What to do? What to do? What to do……
Do you want to go there or not?
If the mistress is in danger and she just stays there like this, wouldn't it be like refusing to save her?
At this moment, the bushes on the opposite side suddenly shook even more violently!
Li Dashan couldn't hold it in any longer, so he took out the short knife tied to his calf and prepared to go to the other side to take a look!
Anyway, there was no one on the mountain road. Even if the mistress was in danger, he must have been attacked by a wild beast.
If you go there now, you just need to drive the beast away. It won't take long.
Besides, it was already dawn, so how could anyone sneak up on the stronghold at dawn?
Yes, that’s it, come back as soon as you go!
