Zhang Mo was surprised to hear Chang Sheng's words. She was from the south. She had been to Lingnan Road before and knew how far Gupo Mountain was from Chang'an. Datou and others set out from Chang'an yesterday evening and arrived from Chang'an in less than a day and night. In Gupo Mountain on the southwest border, this astonishing speed is terrifying.
When the two of them arrived at the door, Chen Xuanyi had already pulled out their horses. Changsheng didn't waste any time. He immediately got on his horse and rode out of the city with Zhang Mo.
At this time, the sun had turned to the west and was not as hot as it was at noon. The two of them galloped on their horses, making a slight circle to the east, crossing the river via the pontoon bridge, and then galloping southwest from Guan Road.
Zhang Mo knew what Chang Sheng had been doing before, but he didn't know how he did it. This time he really saw it. Not to mention anything else, just saying that he was running quickly subverted her imagination. It was a fake all the way. Running wildly, there was no delay along the way. We passed Huainan Road before the sun went down, passed Shannan West Road at the second watch, entered Jiangnan West Road before the fourth watch, and entered the Lingnan boundary at dawn.
Zhang Mo had previously traveled around the world just to gain knowledge. He stopped and walked leisurely and calmly. This was the first time for him to gallop with such concentration as if he were immortal. Even though she had advanced cultivation, a night of jolting on horseback made her quite uncomfortable. , and similar galloping has become a common occurrence for Chang Sheng.
Lingnan is a poor place, with backwaters, high mountains and long roads, and an extremely harsh environment. Not only are there many snakes, insects, rats, and ants, but poisonous miasma can also be seen everywhere. Lingnan Road has always been a place of exile for criminal officials and imperial prisoners. I often hear that officials He was exiled to Lingnan after committing a crime. He was talking about Lingnan Road.
People's abilities vary, and different people do the same thing with different levels of difficulty. This road would definitely be difficult for ordinary people to walk on, but Changsheng is proficient in the art of Qihuang, and it is easy to find and avoid poisonous miasma. The two horses they ride are both divine horses, and they can still run as fast as flying on the twists and turns of the mountain road.
At sunrise, Changsheng finally arrived at the area pointed to by the spiritual energy token. This was not the camp of Datou and others, but the intersection into the mountain. To the south was the endless mountain.
Datou had been waiting nearby, and when he saw the two people arriving, he hurriedly came out of his hiding place to meet them. He then drove Miss Bai to fly low to lead the way, and took the two people into the mountain.
The mountain road was difficult to walk, and even with the magical mounts, they could only walk reluctantly and were not allowed to gallop. Fortunately, it didn't take long for the two of them to come to a flat area, where the other two sweaty horses were grazing leisurely, but Yang Kai The others are not here.
Da Tou instructed Miss Bai to fold her wings and land on the ground, then stepped forward to help Chang Sheng and Zhang Mo get their things, "Your Majesty, Mr. Zhang, there is no way to go further south. Let's leave the horse here. There is another horse over there." In the creek, they can eat and drink, and they won’t run around.”
"How far is it?" Changsheng asked.
"They are two hundred miles away to the south, and Gupo Mountain is two hundred miles southeast of where they are." Datou answered.
Hearing Da Tou's words, Changsheng didn't ask any more questions. After placing the young master Hei and the bloody horse, he and Zhang Mo flew south with Da Tou.
Chang Sheng and Zhang Mo both lived in the mountains and cultivated themselves. They were two miles apart. Two hundred miles was not close, but it was not far for the two of them. After burning incense, they arrived at the camp where Yang Kai and others were.
The camp is not a cave, but a tree house. It is hot and humid in the south, and the trees grow very tall. This tree house is built on a big banyan tree, more than three feet high from the ground. Because the tree crown is very tall, It's big, and the tree house it built is also very big, measuring two feet square.
The tree house is not beautifully built, but it is very practical. Except for the floor, which is made of logs, the other four sides are made of leafy branches. It is protected by the canopy and is not afraid of rain. There are gaps between the leaves. , the mountain breeze blows, it is very cool.
After Changsheng arrived, Datou and others immediately pointed out the specific location of Gupo Mountain, and Changsheng told everyone that the Shaolin monks had agreed to help and were on their way here.
While Changsheng was talking to Datou and others, Zhang Mo looked around at the treehouse and the surrounding environment. The banyan tree where Datou and others built the treehouse was not the tallest nearby. Among the many tall trees, the tree where the treehouse was located seemed It's very inconspicuous, and this tree house is obviously just built, and even the leaves on the broken branches have not withered.
While marveling at everyone's efficiency, Zhang Mo was also impressed by everyone's attentiveness. The tree house floor was made of logs of different sizes, and very wide tree trunks were dissected. The widest pieces even had banyan trees at the ends. Beard, this means that everyone used only one tree to build the tree house, and it was cut off from the root. The biggest advantage of cutting off the tree is that it can bury the cut cut and make it difficult to be discovered. In addition, there are almost no traces of trampling under the tree where the tree house is located. Even if the Japanese pass under the tree, they will not find anyone moving in this area.
The more detailed the observation, the more surprised Zhang Mo was. From the height of the tree house, he could only vaguely see Gupo Mountain, but could not see it clearly. There were many better locations around here, and the reason why Datou and others chose this place was undoubtedly after careful observation. Choosing carefully can avoid attracting the attention of Japanese pirates to the greatest extent. You must know that everything is mutual. Where you can clearly observe others, you can also be clearly seen by others.
There is still a distance. Gupo Mountain is located two hundred miles southeast of here. Everyone came from the north. Logically speaking, they should appear in the northeast of Gupo Mountain. However, Datou and others chose to lurk in the southwest of the Japanese pirates, perfectly avoiding the Japanese pirates. key observation area.
And the distance of two hundred miles can easily avoid the Japanese pirates' observation. Even if they activate their spiritual energy, the Japanese pirates can't see everyone's complexions.
Zhang Mo had never understood why Changsheng was reluctant to call for help when he encountered difficulties. No matter what happened, only five people would deal with it. This time he finally knew that the five people talking quickly in front of him were real elite soldiers. Not at their height, and unable to keep up with their pace.
"Your Majesty, the Japanese pirates are still increasing their troops in the past few days," Yu Yi said in a deep voice, "I looked around last night and found that their number was close to four thousand. However, they did not show their appearance, so it is impossible to accurately judge the number of purple energy masters. .”
"When we are three-year-old children, we still want to take big, big, big..." Da Tou finally held it back for a long time. What he wanted to say was to scare the children with big breasts, thinking that Zhang Mo was there too. , I can only hold it back for life.
"Don't underestimate the enemy. Since they dare to attack hard, it means they are confident. In addition to their large numbers, they should have other things to rely on." Yang Kai reminded sternly.
"I've thought of this too," Datou said, "As the saying goes, if you're not afraid of thieves, you're afraid of them being missed. In recent years, the Japanese pirates have been out at night and day, jumping up and down, causing us a lot of trouble. Moreover, they are secretly hiding us, and no one can do it. We know what they can do without warning, and if they want to confront us head-on, we will satisfy them."
Hearing Datou's words, Changsheng turned to look at Yu Yi. Knowing that Changsheng was asking for his opinion, Yu Yi said, "The Japanese pirates are really hateful, and this battle is bound to be very dangerous, but if we win this battle, the world can be settled. "
After I finished speaking, Changsheng looked at Shi Xuanming again. When he learned that the monks from Shaolin Temple were coming to help, Shi Xuanming had been in a daze. It wasn't until the big head pushed him that he realized that Changsheng was looking at him, "Oh, anything is fine, I Listen to you."
The four people showed their attitudes and focused their attention on Chang Sheng. Chang Sheng said coldly, "Yang Kai is right, the Japanese pirates may have some back-ups. I am not sure of winning this battle, but I have an arrow on the string and I have to shoot. You have to fight even if you are not sure of victory..."
