Chapter 97: Peace is Hard to Find
in the Qi Kingdom A Thousand Miles Away Han Anbo smiled and observed secretly. He found that Ye Han was smiling all the time. He glanced at the four people with indifferent attitudes, and then observed their figures, hands, shoes, etc. Pay close attention to the details and observe their actions out of the corner of your eye.
More and more night guards came to the school grounds, and soon there were more than a hundred people.
A group of high-ranking officials walked onto the parade stage. Five eighth-grade captains wearing iron rhinoceros breastplates formed a team together and formed five teams in front of the parade stage.
Li Qingxian looked at the military parade, and there was only one Demon Hunting Secretary Sidu wearing a sixth-grade official uniform. The Secretary General Song Yanxue was not here.
The chief minister followed the script, first talking about the harm of monsters, then the needs of the court, then talking about some things to pay attention to when hunting monsters, and finally encouraged the night guards who hunted monsters.
After the ceremony, the five teams left the small school field one after another.
The team first went to the military stable to get an ox cart and some supplies. Everyone put their heavy objects on the ox cart. Under the leadership of Wu Jingtian, they left the night guard and walked towards the north gate.
At first, everyone was quiet, but after a while, someone started chatting.
Seeing that Wu Jingtian didn't care, the others also chatted in low voices.
Li Qingxian asked in a low voice: "Brother Han, why don't we ride horses and the dignified night guards travel on two legs?" "Of course we traveled on
horses half a year ago, but the night guards are no longer the night guards. The horses of Taipu Temple The supply is cut off and horses cannot be obtained. Now, as long as the night guard does not travel urgently, he can walk like ordinary soldiers." "
That's it, it would be great if there is a puppet repairman. It is more convenient to ride directly on the puppet repair carriage than to walk." "
Those are all Good thing, how could the higher ups use those for us ordinary night guards? Look carefully, not to mention the tenth grade, but the ninth and eighth grade ones. How many of them are like you, with a magic weapon?" "Really, except
for Ye Han, it seems that Captain Wu has the magical weapon, right?" Li Qingxian said.
"When the demon hunting is over, Lieutenant Wu has to return the magic weapon. How many people do those sects support, and how many people does the court support? We really can't afford it."
Everyone chatted and left the capital, heading north.
Shendusi, the residence of Chunfeng.
Zhou Chunfeng stood by the window, looking to the north.
Zhou Hen, who often stood at the door, disappeared.
On the road north of the capital.
Wu Jingtian walked to the middle of the team and said as he walked: "The place we are going to this time is Dadong County in Guangtong Prefecture, Yanzhou. There is a cave there connecting to the river. There are often little monsters flowing down the river and attacking people. . We will have to walk for about five days, about a hundred miles a day, and stay there for a month, and then return to Beijing when the monster problem subsides."
Li Qingxian calculated that the normal walking speed of a person is about ten miles in half an hour, and it takes about a hundred miles a day. Walk for ten hours, five days in a row, and your legs will break?
Then I thought about it, my body is like this, let alone walking for ten hours straight, even if I run for ten hours straight, it will be full of energy as soon as I sleep.
Li Qingxian glanced at Yu Ping, who was fat and white, and thought that this boy was going to be unlucky.
Yu Ping didn't complain about being tired until he set up camp late at night. When he asked, he found out that Yu Ping had been wandering around with adults since he was a child. Although he had gained weight in the past few years, his foundation was still there.
The next day, the twenty-one people became more friendly and chatted while walking.
Han Anbo was afraid that Li Qingxian would suffer a loss, so he talked about the precautions for traveling and hunting monsters along the way, and used his own experience as an example.
Wu Jingtian did not stop him, but instead urged everyone to follow suit.
Han Anbo talked all the way, and Li Qingxian and other night guards listened.
Han Anbo's status in the team rose rapidly. Every time he took a break, someone would bring him water and food.
At night, Wu Jingtian gathered everyone to stand in front of the bonfire, looking at everyone with a cold face. The beeping firewood burned, and the jumping flames danced.
Everyone didn't know what was happening and didn't dare to express their anger.
After a while, Wu Jingtian pointed to the capital and said: "That's the capital. You've also seen the boundary markers in the evening. This place is more than 120 miles away from the capital. This means that we have completely lost the protection of the capital. It also means that we have completely lost the protection of the capital. Now, we will encounter monsters, evil sects, demon sects, and criminal thieves at any time. You all have heard the saying, a country thousands of miles away, a hundred miles safe. Now, we are in that unsafe place of nine thousand and nine hundred miles. Wu
Jingtian snorted softly and said as he walked around: "In the capital, in the city, our skin can still scare people, but in the wild, it's nothing like that. Just a few seventh-level masters can kill us all. You know In the past six months, for every 100 people in the demon hunting team that went out, how many people came back? Sixty people, and some were seriously injured."
Everyone was shocked.
"Old Han, you were afraid of scaring them before, so you didn't say anything scary. Now, tell me about the scary things." Wu Jingtian said.
Han Anbo sighed and said, "There's nothing scary. Once you're out of peace for a hundred miles, half of you will live, half of you will die. You'll just have to accept your fate."
Everyone was sweating from behind.
Li Qingxian glanced at the dark surroundings, and even the originally pleasant chirping of insects seemed to be mixed with something evil.
Wu Jingtian and Han Anbo sang harmoniously, and the whole team was honest.
The excitement of hunting monsters for the first time disappeared.
The night passed peacefully.
The journey on the third day was a bit dull. Unlike the previous two days, everyone was talking and laughing. They held weapons from time to time and looked around.
It was already late at night after passing the Yanzhou Great Boundary Monument and bypassing Guangtong Mountain. We found a clean and flat place on the roadside and set up camp with a fire.
Everyone fell asleep one after another, and Li Qingxian, Yu Ping and Han Anbo kept watch.
In the dead of night, Han Anbo called the two of them outside the camp and pretended to inspect the surroundings.
Seeing that no one was following, Han Anbo lowered his voice and said, "Ye Han has a problem, please pay more attention."
"What?" Li Qingxian asked.
"You asked for leave, Ye Han also asked for leave, and he came to you for hunting monsters. It's a coincidence no matter how you say it. I observed carefully in the past two days, most of the team are old night guards, and there are four people who are good friends with Ye Han who have just been transferred in. Yes. I have seen the backs of two of them, who used to follow Ye Han. The other two are either good soldiers in the military or high-level masters raised by wealthy families. They are at least ninth-level, and it would not be surprising even if they are eighth-level. ."
"Ye Han wants to harm me?" Li Qingxian has also been secretly guarding against Ye Han.
"It won't harm you directly, but it may harm you indirectly. In addition... Ye Han's true energy is stronger than imagined, and he may have been promoted to the ninth level." Li Qingxian thought of Ye Han's powerful
fate, nodded and said: "He was promoted to the ninth level. There is a high possibility of a bad product."
"You don't need to worry about it at ordinary times, they won't be stupid enough to take action suddenly. But once you encounter a monster and start fighting, you have to be more careful, they will most likely use the monster to hit you hard. This kind of thing, I I have seen it with my own eyes no less than ten times." Han Anbo said.
Yu Ping whispered: "How about I find an opportunity to hit the demon tribe and pretend to miss it, and knock Ye Han unconscious with a stick?"
Han Anbo and Li Qingxian both rolled their eyes at him.
Li Qingxian discussed with Han Anbo for a long time and basically determined that Ye Han did not dare to do it openly, nor did he dare to kill himself, otherwise he would incur the wrath of Zhou Chunfeng and the court. However, you will definitely think of ways to harm yourself indirectly.
Li Qingxian worked hard to make another batch of thunder talismans, and gave half of each part to Han Anbo and Yu Ping.
