Nightfall Chapter 18: Going on horse as a thief (2)
Volume Two, Winter Lake, Chapter 18, Mounted as a Thief (2)
Chapter Eighteen
No one dared to investigate at night, and there were people like Ning Que who knew what had happened and didn’t want to investigate. The people in the camp discovered by the sky the next morning, it was originally close to the north. The group of horse thieves disappeared without a trace at any time, but before they were happy, people heard the sound of horseshoes and sharp whistles again. The group of horse thieves came again through the morning light, but they stretched farther away vigilantly, unlike yesterday. So arrogant.
Zhu Zhihua summoned General Yan Jun to sternly reprimanded them. After all, these Dahe country girls are practitioners of Mochi Garden. Their identities are different. General Yan Jun can only listen to the training in anxious manner, and then consolidate. The team rose from the camp, ignoring the horse thieves who were patrolling outside, concealed a gentle **** to the south, and then continued to march towards the northeast palace.
It was not until they left the camp that people saw a few scorched horse corpses in the southwest. They thought it was probably the chaotic ending of last night. The charred horse carcass was gnawed by wild wolves on the wasteland, and its limbs were shattered and looked terrible, while the boulders there left traces of white burning, as if it had been burned all night. Both the Yan State cavalry and the ordinary coachmen were panicked, and no one dared to speak.
For the next few days, the horse thieves continued to follow the food delivery team, but they appeared to be a lot more cautious, disturbing and not attacking, embellishing and not attacking, and for some reason they were divided into several teams, the team closest to the food team. The horse thief only has a dozen rides, but it is a one-man and two-horse configuration, obviously greedy for speed.
Everyone has been in the wasteland for a long time, not far from where the King's Court of the Left Tent is located. If the elite cavalry rushes at all costs, they will be able to arrive in about four or five days. Calculating the current speed, it will take at least half a month to rendezvous with the cavalry that the Wang Court responds to.
Furthermore, after Ning Que said that, everyone felt that the origins of these horse thieves were a bit weird, and doubts arose in their hearts, thinking that even if they rendezvous with the royal cavalry, they might not be considered safe.
When the number of horse thieves roaming around is gathered and scattered, it seems to be more and less sometimes, and a certain number of them will always appear in the field of vision to maintain pressure on the food team. For several consecutive days, although the two sides have never actually fought, the fear of being attacked at any time and the silence and depressive atmosphere gradually dissipated the hearts of the people in the food brigade, especially those pale-faced civilians, who looked like a ring from the sky. They will probably be frightened by drought.
Zhu Zhihua came to the carriage, looked worriedly at the horse thieves in the distant sky, and said: "These horse thieves must be made to be jealous. If they are allowed to follow along like this, we don’t need the other side to attack us. People may collapse on their own, and if they are farther, there will be some other benefits in the end."
The so-called advantage of being farther away is an inconvenience. The disciples of Mochiyuan surrounding the carriage all know from their hearts that if there is a danger of collapse, the horse thief should stay farther away, and these practitioners will naturally be better off. Quickly leave, as for what will happen to those Yan army and civilian husbands, no one can care too much in this dangerous wasteland.
Ning Que did not participate in the discussion.
The Great Tang Empire and Dahe Nation have had good relations for generations, and his relationship with these girls is also very good, but after all, he is taking advantage of the situation to enter the wasteland together. At this dangerous juncture, it is not convenient to express too many opinions.
Besides, the more important reason is that his attention is always in the carriage.
It fell on Mo Shanshan, the girl in white with straight eyebrows.
After seeing the fire talisman that night, he faintly guessed the identity of the white-clothed girl in the carriage. He thought of walking with the disguised Princess Datang when he returned from the wasteland last spring. He couldn't help but feel a little bit emotionally arranged by Haotian. Destiny and one's own fortune, to be with such a person, no matter how dangerous it is, it will be a little bit less.
The number of Yan Guo cavalry escorting the food brigade is more than that of horse thieves, and coupled with the girl disciples from Mochi Garden, the strength of the two sides is difficult to distinguish between the pros and cons. Perhaps it is for this reason that the horse thieves are always tightly surrounded The food team did not choose to attack, and since the tragedy of wildfires that day, there has never been a night attack.
The horse thief did not launch a night attack, and the police patrol when the food brigade was stationed every night could not relax, and even tense overnight, maybe no one could see it, but Ning Que woke up in the middle of the night and was seen wearing white clothes Mo Shanshan appeared on the outskirts of the camp in the dark, he knew she was in the array of talisman.
This lasted for several days. No matter how strong the girl Mo Shanshan was, her thought power was rapidly consumed, and she couldn't sustain it for a long time. Seeing that the slightly round cheeks behind the car curtains gradually became thinner and paler, Ning Que finally decided to take action. .
He studied Fudao from Master Yan Se and understood that before entering the realm of Zhiming God Rune Master, the characteristics of Fu Dao destined to be based on defensive cooperation, and it is difficult to initiate an offensive initiative. Although Mo Shanshan's realm is high and difficult However, there is obviously still a lot of experience in the use of Fudao in combat.
The middle of the night is deeper. There are no moons in the sky. There are only a few stars. The camp is brightly lit, and the surrounding wasteland is dark. I don't know how many dangers are hidden.
The carriage shook slightly, and Mo Shanshan quietly got out of the carriage, preparing to draw a talisman formation outside the camp. Suddenly, his eyes brightened, and he turned to look coldly at the inconspicuous small tent behind the carriage.
Ning Que opened the curtain and walked out, looking at her and said: "If you are alone, the horse thieves outside will have no way to keep you, but you are not alone. You have to take care of so many companions and food carts. , And don’t know how many days to take care of, it’s impossible to hold it like you."
Mo Shanshan looked at him as if looking at the dark night behind him, her eyes indifferent and indifferent, and then her eyes drooped slightly, her long and slightly sparse eyelashes blinked gently, but she never said a word.
Ning Que looked at her expression and continued: "If you are a runemaster, you can burn all the horse thieves to death in one run. The problem is that at least you are not a runemaster now, so you must change your method." /
Mo Shanshan raised his head, looked at him and asked indifferently: "What method?"
Ning Que said: "Whether the horse thieves outside are real or fake, they are raised by the left-handed king court or the people of Yan Guo, if you want to deal with them, you must use the way of horse thieves."
The extremely faint starlight fell on Mo Shanshan’s beautiful and dull face, and the paint eyebrows became clearer. She looked at Ning Que after a moment of silence and asked: "What way?"
"There can only be one reason for the horse thief to move out, and that is benefit. As long as they confirm that the price paid will exceed the benefit, they will naturally retreat."
Ning Que said: "Obviously these horse thieves have missed you in their intelligence. They don't know your existence, so when they are forced to change their plans, then we have already taken the lead."
Mo Shanshan looked at him quietly and suddenly asked: "Do you know who I am?"
Ning Que did not answer this question.
Mo Shanshan repeated the previous question: "What method can be used to drive away these horse thieves."
Ning Que replied: "The so-called horse thieves, mount a horse as a thief, dismount a horse for the people. They don’t believe in moral judgment, and they don’t care about the general trend of the world. They only care about whose cutting edge is better, and they want to shock or repulse them, just like As I just said, we must use the horse thief's way."
Mo Shanshan continues to repeat: "What way?"
Ning Que looked at the girl’s beautiful and indifferent cheeks, suddenly laughed, and said, "I said, the way of the horse thief."
He is very persistent and boring, Mo Shanshan is more persistent and boring than him, and continues to repeat: "What way."
Ning Que shook his head and smiled, and replied: "Let's go and kill them as thieves."
Mo Shanshan responded concisely: "I will not kill."
Ning Que said concisely: "I can teach you."
Mo Shanshan responded succinctly: "Okay."
After a while, Ning Que led the **** horse, Mo Shanshan led a horse with white fur, and walked slowly towards the dark wasteland outside the camp. The night breeze was blowing the hair on the girl’s temple, she suddenly asked Said: "Where did these horse thieves come from?"
Ning Que couldn’t make accurate judgments about the horse thieves who seemed to be able to attack at any time. He was familiar with the western wasteland and the horse thieves on that wasteland. Starting from the cause, he also lacked sufficient intelligence and ability to analyze the political situation.
The food team supervised by the girls of the Dahe Nation carried the goodwill of the Central Plains countries and the intention of the temple to negotiate peace. Now the situation in the wasteland is tense, and the authentic horse thieves with sensitive smells have long known where they have gone. Gunma thief obviously wants to kill people to grab food, and the purpose is naturally not related to food and grass, but to destroy the peace talks.
There are not many forces that have reason to do this. The deserted tribes that have moved south from the extreme north and cold regions should not be able to raise such a large group of horse thieves in such a short period of time; the Moon Nation wants to frame the Dahe Nation People, but I think no one would be so boring and sinister for the sake of a Wenxi; Yan Guo has been tortured for a long time by the Imperial Court of the Left Account, and he is unwilling to miss the opportunity to pacify the north in one fell swoop, but the Emperor Yan will risk opening the temple of sin secretly Start?
After much deliberation, Ning Que can only think of the simplest possibilities. Once all of them are eliminated, he can no longer think of anyone who can raise such a large group of horse thieves on the grassland.
But I can’t think of this problem. It’s not too much trouble for him. Ning Que’s attitude has always been very clear to the horse thief, a creature that has been dealing with for many years. Only the dead horse thief is Good horse thief.
Then, kill the last ten horse thieves first.
A cloud floated above the night sky, covering the last few stars that remained, far away from the lights of the camp, the surrounding wasteland was pitch black, and only the faint sound of horseshoes could be heard.
When he came to the meadow about an arrow away from the dozen or so stalking horse thieves, Ning Que lifted the reins lightly, and the **** horse shook his head impatiently, but he stopped.
The horse thief is naturally alert, and even the weak sound of horse hooves will wake them from their sleep.
Ning Que's waist and abdomen were exerted slightly, standing up with both feet on the stirrups, and then took out the boxwood hardwood bow after himself.
Mo Shanshan glanced at him, wondering what the arrow is for at such a distance?
The horse thieves in the distance have awakened, ready to fight.
In the dark night, Ning Que couldn't see his five fingers holding the bow, so he quietly looked at that place, then slowly closed his eyes, took the arrow and pulled the bow to aim at an unknown place, and then released the bowstring.
The bowstring vibrates and hums in the night sky.
In the distance, a horse thief had an arrow in his chest, bursting out a **** flower, and fell to the ground with a groan.
