Shortly after Chen Tianshun left with a group of bandits, there was sudden movement under the cliff. Next, several figures climbed up from the cliff, it was Ye Ying and others.
It turned out that before Ye Ying appeared again in the sight of Chen Tianshun and others, he arranged for Gan De and several soldiers to form several long ropes with vines, then tied them to the roots of the cliff and hung them down from the cliff.
The reason why Ye Ying and others were able to magically disappear from the bandits was because they slid down the cliff with the help of these long ropes. Chen Tianshun and the bandits never dreamed that the person they had been looking for for a long time was not far from their feet.
"Boss, it's safe now. We can return to the camp." Seeing that the bandits had gone away, Gan De said excitedly to Ye Ying.
"No, we can't go back now, Huzi, you arrange for each brother to send a letter back, and we go to an interesting place." Ye Ying looked at the direction in which the bandits disappeared and said to the people around him.
Chen Tianshun and a group of bandits were walking on the mountain road. Because everyone was in a low mood, there were very few people talking, and they were not as energetic as when they came before.
This time, in order to avenge themselves, the gangsters in Yunze Village spent a lot of effort. First of all, the leader, Kuang Zhaolei, took the initiative to take the team out of Miyunze, and deliberately let the people of the Mad Lion Army discover their whereabouts. This was actually a very dangerous thing.
Miyunze is a magical place. The mountains and lakes here are connected, and the terrain is very complex, which is very suitable for hiding. More importantly, this place is shrouded in thick fog almost all year round, and people who are not familiar with the terrain can easily get lost here.
The Yunze village where Chen Tianshun is located is located in this misty cloud. The leader of the village, Kuang Zhaoleipan, is more than 20 years away from here. Officers and soldiers have surrounded him many times, but he can always escape by relying on the complicated terrain.
Over the years, after losing many people, the officers and soldiers finally gave up the siege of Miyunze, making it a paradise for bandits in Yunze Village. Over the years, the power of Yunze Village has continued to expand. Up to now, the number of bandits under Kuang Zhaolei has exceeded a thousand.
The biggest advantage of Miyunze is the complex terrain and thick fog all year round. Kuang Zhaolei also understands this very well, so over the years, except for necessary actions, he has almost never taken his team out of Miyunze.
When the Kuang Lion Army scouts discovered that the bandits from the Yunze Village Brigade had actually left Lao Suppression and appeared outside their sphere of influence, they immediately conveyed the news back. The new barracks closest to Yunze Village naturally became the executor of this operation. This is why Sima Chi, the deputy commanding battalion of the new barracks, took out three teams of soldiers to carry out the mission.
But no one in the Mad Lion Army ever dreamed that the reason why Kuang Zhaolei was so aggressive was to help his brother Chen Tianshun get revenge.
Logically speaking, Kuang Zhaolei and Chen Tianshun's plan this time was perfect. After mobilizing a large number of troops in the new barracks and taking advantage of its internal emptiness, they could successfully complete the mission of killing Lu Tianzhao and avenging Chen Tianshun.
But God's calculations are not as good as those of man. This originally perfect plan was unexpectedly ruined by a young officer in the recruit camp. This really made Chen Tianshun unwilling to give in, but he also knew that if he and his brothers returned a little later, Kuang Zhaolei, who was responsible for holding back the main force of the new barracks, would be in more danger. Therefore, he had no choice but to give up the pursuit of Lu Tianzhao and chose to rush back to Miyunze as quickly as possible.
Chen Tianshun led nearly two hundred Yunze bandits in a hurry, and they did not stop even at night. Near noon the next day, a large lake appeared in front of the bandits.
The lake is very large. Standing on the edge of the lake, you can't even see the end of the lake. Of course, for such a big lake, people are indispensable for making a living here. For convenience, many people built houses on the lakeside. Over time, a large village was formed here.
Looking at this large lake shining in the sun, the bandits completely relaxed, because they had reached their territory once they arrived here. From here, a dozen miles further by boat was Yunze Village.
"Second Master, it's great that you are back safely. The First Master has received your news and has returned to the village in advance." Seeing Chen Tianshun and his party arriving, a man dressed as a fisherman came up to them.
"Great, brothers, take the boat back to the mountain immediately and tell the boss that I will return to Shangzhai tomorrow." Chen Tianshun was in a good mood when he heard that Kuang Zhaolei had returned successfully.
"That's right. After working hard for a few days in vain, it's really time for the second master to vent."
"Yes, Sanniang's land has been deserted for several days. It really needs the second master to plow it."
After hearing what Chen Tianshun said, several bandits deliberately said loudly with evil smiles on their faces, which caused a burst of laughter from all the bandits.
"Go away, you little bastards, you dare to make fun of me for nothing, aren't you itchy?" Hearing the words of the bandits, Chen Tianshun laughed and cursed, pretending to kick the butt of the bandit closest to him, which provoked The bandits ran away in a hurry and ran in the direction of several small boats.
After watching the bandits get on the boat smoothly one by one and then gradually move away on the lake, Chen Tianshun turned his head and walked farther along the lake shore.
Chen Tianshun walked along the path by the lake, twisting and turning for about two sticks of incense, and came to the door of a small courtyard hung with dried fish. The sound of barking soon came from the courtyard, and a big yellow dog ran out quickly, jumping around Chen Tianshun happily.
"Here we come!" A voice sounded in the small courtyard, and then, a woman with still charming charm walked out of the small courtyard, and her heartfelt joy could be seen from her face.
"Yes!" Chen Tianshun said in agreement, and then followed the woman into the small courtyard. For the next afternoon, Chen Tianshun and the woman stayed in the small courtyard and never came out.
Night came soon, the lights in the small courtyard suddenly went out, and the sound of bed boards and the breathing of men and women came from the courtyard.
"Damn, it's so unlucky. The two bitches and the couple are happy in the room, and the grandfathers can only feed the mosquitoes outside." A low complaint came from the dark night outside the courtyard.
"It's just you, Jin Gui. Look, the boss is here too. He hasn't complained a word." As soon as the complaint ended, a voice next to him whispered.
The two people who spoke were Gan De and Zhao Hu. After they sent a person back to the camp yesterday to report the news, Ye Ying led the remaining people to hang far behind the bandits and followed them here.
The Mad Lion Army also sent people to encircle and suppress this group of bandits in Yunze Village, but they never found the veterans of these guys in the fog. This was a rare opportunity to keep up with this group of bandits, and Ye Ying was certainly not willing to let go of such an opportunity.
"Okay, stop complaining. Let's take turns to rest. Don't let this guy get away." Ye Ying said while lying on a pile of hay and looking at the stars in the sky.
It was still dark before Chen Tian walked out of the small courtyard. Under the watch of the woman, his figure quickly disappeared into the mist.
Chen Tianshun walked all the way to the lakeside, which was very close to Yunze Village. The village also arranged for many people to live here as common people, so this area could also be counted as Yunze Village's sphere of influence.
Because of this, Chen Tianshun felt at ease along the way. He never thought that there was someone following him in this place.
Chen Tianshun walked all the way and soon arrived at the lakeside. At this time, someone had already prepared a boat for him, and even the boatman was already waiting here.
As Chen Tianshun boarded the boat, the boat quickly started moving, slowly heading towards the depths of the fog.
Shortly after Chen Tianshun's boat left, a fishing boat also launched into the water at a hidden place. Three "fishermen" on the boat rowed the fishing boat, hanging far behind the boat Chen Tianshun was on. The thick fog on the lake At this time, it became the best cover for fishing boats.
"Sugar Cane, when you were making the boat, no one noticed it, right?" Ye Ying asked Gander on the bow while rowing the boat.
"Boss, don't worry. We will directly control the fisherman's family in the house. Shanzi and the others are still guarding the family. I will instruct them according to your request. If we have not returned in two days, they will return to the camp. Report." Gander said confidently.
The man rowing for Chen Tianshun was very skilled and familiar with the waters, so he rowed the boat very fast. Fortunately, Ye Ying, Zhao Hu and Gan De on the fishing boat were rowing at the same time, so they could keep one hanging behind the other side's boat without being thrown away.
The two boats headed toward the depths of the lake one after the other. After traveling for more than an hour, the sun began to rise and the dense fog on the lake became much lighter.
"Abandon the boat and get into the water!" Ye Ying, who had been rowing quietly, suddenly said.
Gan De and Zhao Hu now worshiped Ye Ying to an almost blind degree. After hearing Ye Ying's words, they didn't hesitate at all and followed the boat into the water.
Shanren's water skills are pretty good. Parading along the direction of the boat in front is actually not much slower than rowing. But the distance they marched was not too long, and not long after, a peninsula next to the mountain appeared in front of people.
Seeing the small boat in front of them constantly weaving among the water plants in front of the island, Ye Ying and the other three quickly speeded up, because in this kind of water, it was very likely that they would lose each other.
"Remember their boat route. The water in the area near the shore is usually relatively shallow. If you don't pay attention, the boat will be stranded." Ye Ying said to Gan De and Zhao Hu while paddling hard in the water.
"Don't worry, boss, my memory has always been very good." After listening to Ye Ying's words, Gan De wiped the water on his head and said.
At this moment, the boat in front suddenly stopped, and several bandits suddenly appeared on the island. They stretched out poles and pulled the boat Chen Tianshun was sitting on.
"Hide in the water plants." When you see the bandits appearing in front of you, you quickly say to the two people next to you, because if they are discovered by the other party at this time, they have almost no possibility of escaping.
The two of them hid a stick of incense in the water plants for a long time, and there was no sound on the shore. Then they quietly swam far away from where the bandits had just appeared, and finally used the bushes on the shore to Climbed ashore.
"Boss, which direction are we going now?"
Gander took off his wet clothes, squeezed out the water, then put them on again and asked Ye Ying. Zhao Hu did not speak, but turned to look at Ye Ying. It seemed that he had the same idea as Gan De.
"Let's go around the place where the bandits just appeared and look for any traces of people walking there. With so many bandits living in this area, it's impossible not to leave a trail." Ye Ying looked ahead and said confidently.
Following Ye Ying's method, the three of them quickly discovered a trail without any obstructions, which was enough to prove that they had arrived at the hinterland of the bandits in Yunze Village, because they no longer covered their way to the cottage.
"Follow me and don't make any noise." At this time, although no other people were found around, Ye Ying knew that there were obviously many people hiding in this generation.
The three of them took advantage of the vegetation on the island and the fog that never cleared, and quietly moved forward along the road, not daring to make any noise along the way. But there were too many grass roots and branches along the way. Zhao Hu accidentally stepped on a branch and broke a branch. The "snap" sound spread far across the silent peninsula.
"Who's there?" At this time, the bandit's voice suddenly came from the front, and then there was movement from front to back and left and right.
