Chapter 178 Captain Water’s acquaintance
After hearing Lin Lei's analysis, Qi Chengcheng touched his chin and said, "That's right! But I think the guys in Shenfeng camp are quite amiable, and not as aloof as you said!"
Fifth Xiaoxiao and Lu Huahua couldn't help but give the young man a blank look and ignored him.
Zhang Yanshi smiled awkwardly and said: "Brother Lin Lei's analysis just now is correct. I also think that resisting the people from Helianbao is very important for the destruction of Tiexin this time."
Teng She quietly observed the conversation between the five of them, and had to say that these young men were truly remarkable.
Needless to say, Lu Huahua and Zhang Yanshi, what surprised him was the tall and thin young man named Lin Lei. This seemingly reticent young man had a far more mature outlook on the overall situation than his peers.
I heard that he was Lin Dongyue's grandson. As expected, no one from the Lin family could look down upon him.
The tall man coughed lightly:
"Well, this mission will be left to you. The sun will set soon. Before sunset, please make arrangements and think of a communication code."
As he spoke, he glanced at everyone and ordered: "If you encounter an opponent you cannot defeat, remember to send a signal to request support. I will be waiting for you in this camp."
After that, the five people took the order and left.
Time passed in an instant, and soon the last ray of light cast from the setting sun disappeared between heaven and earth.
Helian Tiexin looked at the huge camp in the distance and made secret calculations.
This place was not far from the northern border, but he was not sure whether Ji Rentu's troops had arrived.
If they arrive, there will be many opportunities to take advantage of this operation. Whether it is to deal with the group of imps behind them or to disrupt the deployment of the northern border camp, there are many things that can be tried.
But what the white-haired old man is more worried about is that Ji Rentu's troops have not reached the border yet. If that's the case, your plan needs to be changed.
The old man silently felt the traces of the group of imps behind him. After a moment, he opened his eyes in surprise and murmured: "They separated!"
Since the sunset, the skylight has gradually dimmed, and the people following behind have also slowed down. However, in this situation, the group of brats actually chose to spread out and track themselves. This is tantamount to death.
"It seems that I escaped blindly, making them think that I was too seriously injured and could not take action. Now that we are not far from the border, in desperation, they chose to take a dangerous approach!"
Helian Tiexin murmured to himself.
However, the old man calmed down in an instant. He must first find out Ji Rentu's movements.
The old man slowly moved his gaze to the northern camp of Tiexin Village and decided to explore the camp here first. He knew that it would be difficult to defeat that brat Zhao Feng in his current state, but he could still do it without anyone noticing just by detecting some of the truth from a distance.
If Ji Rentu's people have already arrived, the people in the camp must be nervous to respond to the enemy, and we can deduce the latest trends from this!
As if he had made up his mind, the white-haired old man quickly swept towards the northern camp.
………………Dividing line………………
Qi Chengcheng looked at the dimming horizon in the distance and chewed the grass roots in his mouth out of boredom.
This grass root is actually a kind of medicinal material, which gives people a tingling feeling in the mouth when chewed. Many lazy men in the village will hold one in their mouths to pass the time when they have nothing to do.
The funny boy always felt that the hateful Zhao Feng was not very reliable, so this mission made him very frustrated.
Zhang Yanshi chose a mound next to the main camp of Tiexin Village, which was considered a relatively conspicuous commanding height nearby.
Lu Huahua chose to sit on a huge rock, which was exactly at the midpoint between the Tiexin Village Camp and the Yinren Village Camp.
Wu Xiaoxiao was good at secret assassination. She chose a lake near Tiexin Camp, which was the only water source within fifty miles.
Lin Lei was a bit of a thief, so he chose to be on the turret on the south side of the Tiexin Village camp, but here he could see Zhang Yanshi, Lu Huahua, Wu Xiaoxiao and the message he was delivering.
As for Qi Chengcheng himself, he wandered around in the dense forest south of the camp out of fear of trouble. It's just that he no longer wore his white cloak at this time, but chose the animal skin jacket he wore when he participated in the martial arts competition training.
The young man was carrying a crossbow on his back, a dagger at his waist, and a grass root in his mouth, as if he were out hunting.
While the funny boy was lost in thought, a rabbit jumped out of the bushes nearby. Qi Chengcheng, with quick eyes and quick hands, swiped it from his waist, opened his crossbow and shot out.
"Poof! Bang!"
Following two soft sounds, the rabbit was pierced by an arrow and then nailed to a tree trunk.
The funny boy breathed a sigh of relief, walked slowly towards the prey he had killed, pulled the arrow out of the tree trunk, and tied the dead rabbit neatly with hemp rope.
Before he could hang it on the back of his waist, a touch of coolness quietly touched his neck.
"Boy, don't move!"
A deep voice sounded from behind Qi Chengcheng.
The young man's heart sank. The person who could approach him quietly could only have a strength level above the level of the chivalrous person, and certainly not an ordinary chivalrous person.
The funny boy's mind was spinning, and he quietly suppressed the inner energy that was immediately aroused, and then said in a trembling voice:
"Sir, spare your life. Just take the rabbit. I don't have any money with me!"
Helian Tiexin frowned, thinking that he, the dignified head of the Helian Fort family, would be reduced to robbing a rabbit hunted by a child?
The white-haired old man asked angrily: "Turn around and answer whatever I ask you."
Qi Chengcheng turned around obediently and looked at the tall old man in front of him.
"First of all, do you know me?" the old man asked in a low voice. Seeing that the young man complied quietly, he also took his hands away from the other man's neck.
The funny boy was startled. He felt a chill on his neck before and thought he was being held down by a sword. Only then did I realize that it was the opponent's palm!
"What a pair of iron palms as cold as iron!" He sighed secretly in his heart.
The young man stared at the old man for a few times, then glanced at the other man's palm intentionally or unintentionally, then shook his head and said, "I don't know him!"
The white-haired old man frowned and asked, "Are you a local?"
"I am a hunter nearby. My grandfather and I are the only ones left in the family. Both my parents died in the beast wave." There was sadness in the young man's eyes.
"Well, do you know that camp?" Obviously Helian Tiexin was not interested in hearing what this kid said about his old sesame seeds and rotten millet. After asking this question, there was a bit of impatience in his eyes, and he even said A hint of murderous intent.
The old man did not expect that this young man was a martial arts practitioner, nor did he expect that the other party could detect his murderous intention. Qi Chengcheng tried his best to calm down the fluctuations in his heart and said with a smile:
"Uncle, you must have asked the right person. That is the permanent camp of our Tiexin Village. I am familiar with their leader, the water captain!"
