Traveling two hundred miles north, the others left the official road and changed their route to the northeast. The direction of Buxian Mountain is from northeast to southwest, and the end of the vein is located in the northeast of Shenzhou.

At first you could still see villages and homes, but later the road became narrower and narrower, and there were fewer and fewer homes along the way.

In the evening, everyone entered the Buxian Mountains, deep in the mountains and dense forests, completely deserted.

At this time, Nissan Chiba's silk map came into play. It clearly marked the path to the area where the ugly cow was. There were no roads in the deep mountains, but there were no roads in the mountains and other places. The woods are very different. The trees are extremely tall. Since they are all big trees with a thickness of several arms, the distance between the trees is very large. The huge crown also blocks the sunlight and lacks sunlight. The small trees in the forest are It is difficult for trees and thorns to grow, so everyone can drive their horses and walk calmly under the tree.

The sun set soon after entering the mountain, and it was pitch dark under the forest. Fortunately, everyone had night vision, so they could still ride horses quickly under the forest.

It is now spring, and the temperature in the Central Plains has begun to rise, but the temperature in the Northeast is still very low, and there are even snow that has not melted in some shaded places.

When passing a snowy depression, Yu Yi reined in his horse and inspected the hoof prints left on the snow. "There were eight horses when we entered the mountain. One of them left and came back. It must be the female Japanese pirate who pretended to be me." "

Nodding, although the master of purple energy can fly across the sky, horses still need to be used as foot power for long-distance attacks. If Yu Yi's inspection is correct, there should be seven Japanese pirates waiting from the mountain at this time.

After checking the horse hoof prints, everyone set off on the road again. Although the hibernation had passed, the temperature here was very low, and most of the hibernating snakes and insects had not yet come out of their holes. Therefore, there were no chirping insects in the forest, only occasional sounds. Here are some wild beast roars.

The Dragon Vein Continuation Map was drawn in the pre-Qin period, and includes the locations of all the earthly branches. Because it covers a large area, the map is not very accurate, but Nissan Chiba's map only records the path into the mountains, which is single and specific, and is very accurate. Accurate, own side

Everyone climbed over the mountains according to the path recorded on the map, and went deep into the hinterland of Buhan Mountain at the second watch. It was roughly estimated that at this time, it was less than a hundred miles away from the red dot marked on the silk silk map.

As the destination approached, everyone began to slow down, and they tried to keep their voices down when talking to each other occasionally. Worrying that the Japanese pirates would see them flying high, Da Tou instructed Miss Bai to fly low under the forest.

After traveling another fifty miles, they stopped. At this time, they were on the east side of the southern mountain peak. From here, they could see the faint flash of fire on the mountainside of the northern mountain.

As the saying goes, the two adjacent peaks seem to be very close, but in fact they are far apart from each other. In addition, there are trees covering the area. Everyone on our side can only vaguely see the faint light of fire on the mountainside of the northern peak. But he couldn't clearly see the specific situation there, and naturally he couldn't determine the specific number of people.

Seeing that he was staring at the fire in the distance without saying a word for a long time, Da Tou asked casually, "My lord, is there anything wrong?"

Hearing Dafa ask, he came back to his senses, "I once encountered the Unitary Chicken, one of the twelve earthly branches, in the desert of the Western Regions. The Unitary Chicken is not flesh and blood, and has no spiritual energy cultivation, but the Unitary Chicken is possessed by the metal energy. It can control the surrounding metal things with its own metallic breath."

Datou knew that he hadn't finished speaking yet, so he looked up and waited for him to continue speaking.

He continued, "Since Youji has no spiritual energy cultivation, it is not appropriate to use the spiritual energy level to describe its ability. If you have to use the spiritual energy level to describe it, Youji's spiritual energy cultivation must be higher than Taixuan, and

They can move freely within a certain range."

He paused briefly at this point, and then said again, "The unitary chicken can control the metal things around it, and the ugly cow naturally has the ability to control the surrounding things, and the five elements of the ugly cow are

Earth, the five elements are respected by earth, her ability should be stronger than that of the unitary chicken. In a head-on confrontation with these Japanese pirates, she is definitely not its opponent. What I am wondering at this time is how these Japanese pirates dare to start a fire under its nose.

?”

Hearing the words, no one answered immediately. After a moment of silence, Da Tou was the first to speak, "Is it possible that their location has exceeded Chou Niu's sphere of influence?"

Shaking his head, according to the Dragon Vein Continuation Map and the silk map, Chou Niu should be fifty miles ahead, and the location where the fire appeared must not be beyond the area Chou Niu can control. To put it bluntly, this group of people are now

Right on the ugly cow's territory.

"Could it be that the Earthly Branches don't know why the Japanese pirates came?" Yu Yi guessed.

After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "It is possible that the five elements belong to different people and their temperaments are also different. The unitary chicken I met before was not angry but powerful, cold-blooded and easy to kill. This is the common characteristic of people with five elements belonging to metal.

However, Chou Niu’s five elements belong to the earth. People who belong to the five elements of earth are honest, honest, stable and peaceful. They are not sure about the intentions of the Japanese pirates. Chou Niu may indeed choose to wait and see what happens.”

"What to do now?" Big Head asked.

"Go over and have a look." He shook the reins and urged the horse.

Going first, everyone followed. This time Datou did not drive Miss Bai again, but rode on the same horse as Shi Xuanming.

There were trees covering the area, so no one had to worry about being exposed in advance. The soil under the forest was soft, so the sound of hooves was not loud when the horses were running.

At the foot of the northern peak, everyone dismounted and walked up the mountain.

Not long after walking, a large area of ​​abandoned city walls appeared in front of them. This city wall had been abandoned for many years and had seriously collapsed.

I was not surprised when I saw the abandoned city wall, because Sasaki had previously said that the ugly cow lived in an ancient city in Bulham Mountain, and was worshiped as an immortal goddess by the people here.

More and more

As you go up, there are more and more various relics of the ancient city. Although it has lost its former glory, it is not difficult to find from the various remaining relics that this ancient city built on the mountain was very majestic back then.

At this time, everyone on our side was less than five miles away from the fire on the mountainside. As they were going up, they whispered, "The Japanese pirates here are waiting for the arrival of Ikeda and others. We will use our tactics to get as close as possible. Don't rush to take action. When will I pull out?"

Dao, when will you attack?"

After saying this, all four people nodded.

As the distance shortened, the place where the fire appeared vaguely was a flat area on the mountainside, which should have been a square in the ancient city.

On the way up, he whispered to Yu Yi and taught her a sentence in Japanese. At this time, the Japanese pirates already knew that he could speak Japanese. If he spoke by himself, he was afraid that the other party would become suspicious. If Yu Yi took the initiative to greet them, he could completely dispel the other party's suspicion.

.

There are masters of purple energy among the Japanese pirates, and it is impossible for everyone on our side to approach quietly. Instead of waiting until the Japanese pirates hear the strange noise and ask questions, it is better for our own side to take the initiative to speak, which will appear calm.

When he was a hundred feet away from the bonfire, Chongyu nodded, and the latter understood and said loudly in Japanese, which roughly meant "We are here."

Hearing Yu Yi's voice, someone immediately responded by saying, 'Thank you for your hard work.'

There was more than one person talking around the campfire, and several others were talking to Mitsubishi Mori, which roughly meant, 'Master, General Ikeda has arrived.'

"Hurry up." He pretended to urge him in Japanese.

After saying that, he changed from walking to running, with Datou and others following closely behind.

Running at the front, I looked around eagerly after reaching the flat area. No more, no less, there were exactly seven people.

Seeing the others arriving, Mitsubishi Mori and others immediately left the fire and came to greet them.
Chapter completed!
